"Hey Johnson, don't you need to tell the audience where we're going now?"

"Sorry, I left a little hastily." After hearing the PD's words, Michael Johnson stopped and looked at his watch, "It is now 9 pm Beijing time and 1 pm Los Angeles time. Where we are going now is

The main venue for track and field events - the outdoor warm-up track and field field of the Dongjing National Arena. There, we will visit one by one the eight athletes who will participate in the men's 200 meters final in 50 minutes. Come on!"

After finishing speaking, Michael Johnson turned around and entered the warm-up track and field. He is currently doing an NBC Olympics live broadcast program, conducting simple interviews with athletes before the game. After the interview, he will return to the commentary box in the main venue.

Join David List on tonight's men's 200m final.

After entering the warm-up field, the first thing he saw from the crowd were two players from the Chinese team: Wu Ziyi and Xie Zhenye. The two of them were doing acceleration running exercises together, and their coaches and team staff were also joining in.

Together, they looked happy and happy.

But the three little guys from Team USA are different. They all have their own team. Even when practicing starting and accelerating, they have their own training partners. If it weren't for Lyles and Knighton's personalities, they would still be outgoing.

Johnson estimated that they didn't even want to say hello during the warm-up process.

Michael Johnson interviewed three young men from the Chinese team, briefly asked some questions that netizens wanted to know, encouraged them, and then walked to where the Chinese team was.

"Hey! Uzi~Long time no see!"

Michael Johnson opened his arms towards Wu Ziyi, wanting to give him a warm hug. Wu Ziyi quickly made a gesture of "Don't come over here" and rejected him:

"No, Johnson, although you are wearing a mask, this is a special period. At most, the most we can do is -"

Wu Ziyi stretched out his fist towards Michael Johnson, the two fist bumped lightly, and then immediately took it back.

"Okay, Uzi, I'm doing a pre-Olympic webcast interview program on NBC. Is it convenient for you to be interviewed by me now?"

Wu Ziyi glanced at Randy and Yuan Guoqiang. The two looked at each other and nodded gently to Wu Ziyi in agreement.

"Of course, come on~"

"Oh, that's great!" Michael Johnson adjusted his tie, placed the microphone between him and Wu Ziyi, and started the interview:

"First question, many Chinese viewers want to know what your goal is, gold medal? World record? Although this is the ultimate pursuit of every athlete, we want to hear the most authentic answer from your mouth."

Wu Ziyi organized his language and replied: "Yes, as you said, every athlete's goal is the same, and I am no exception. Three days ago, I already held the men's 100-meter world record and Olympic record.

In my hands, as early as five years ago, I defeated Bolt and became the 200m champion of the Rio Olympics..."

"My best time in the 200 meters is 19 seconds 22 at the World Championships in Doha. If I can improve it by another 0.04 seconds, then I will become the person who holds the men's 100 meters and 200 meters world records at the same time. This is mine.

Pursue."

Michael Johnson: "But 19 seconds 19, this is indeed a very exaggerated result. If you are in a one-shot Diamond League, with good wind speed, temperature and other conditions, I fully believe you can surpass 19 seconds 19. Really

of!"

"But this shot is your sixth shot in the Olympics, and unlike Bolt, you only ran 19.66 seconds yesterday. You ran 9.75 seconds in the 100-meter semifinals and 9.60 seconds in the final.

In fact, your consumption will definitely not be less than that of Usain Bolt at the World Championships in Berlin. So, do you think your current physical condition is enough to support you to hit 19.19 seconds?"

"Wow, haha." Wu Ziyi nodded and smiled. I have to say that Michael Johnson's question was indeed very high-level. Wu Ziyi thought about it for a while before arranging the words.

"My consumption was really great. Whether it was the previous 100 meters or 200 meters, my semi-final opponents were very strong. They put a lot of pressure on me. But I also have my own advantages. My training methods.

The training conditions are more advanced and scientific than ten years ago. My coach and my team are definitely the best in the world. They have prepared everything necessary for my goal. And the track we compete on is better than the track in Berlin.

A lot of elastic, high-tech composite plastic..."

"The most important thing is my own competitive state. All the conditions are met. Tonight, I hope that audiences around the world can witness new excellence and greatness!"

**********

At 21:50 on the evening of August 4th, Dongjing National Arena.

Wu Ziyi stood behind the entrance with seven other players. On each side were four players, waiting to enter in the order arranged by the staff.

After receiving the signal from the director, the on-site English commentary host began to introduce:

“In the men’s 200-meter final of the Winter Olympics, let us welcome these eight athletes who represent human speed—!”

At the same time, Yang Jian, who was sitting in the commentary box in the media area, also began to explain:

"Okay audience friends, the men's 200m final is about to begin. Next, let's follow the live footage to get to know these eight contestants:"

"The first person to appear was Noah Lyles. He was in lane 2. His semifinal time was 19.99 seconds. It was actually a pity because he only needed to be a little faster and a little shorter to run

The first place in the group will get a better ranking."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Course 9, this is Elijan Knighton, a supernova from a bad country. The youngster born in 2004 is only 17 years old this year and is known as

The strongest high school student in history, his personal best time has reached 19.84 seconds, which is only 0.01 seconds slower than Xie Zhenye’s best time.”

"Lane 4, Canada's No. 2 Aaron Brown. He is holding a photo of his wife and children. His personal best time is 19.95 seconds. He also ran a good time of 19.99 seconds in the semifinals.

score."

"Lane 8, this is the only African athlete in the men's 200m final, Joseph Farnborough from Liberia. He is also the second youngest athlete in the final. He was born in 2001, with a personal best score of 19

Seconds 91."

"Road 7, Canadian star Andre de Grasse. De Grasse is a bronze medalist at the Rio Olympics and the World Championships in Doha. He has been an old friend with Wu Ziyi for many years. In the semi-finals, he won the bronze medal in 19 seconds.

The score of 70 set a new Canadian national record.”

"Road 5, Xie Zhenye. This is the third time Xie Zhenye has entered the finals of the World Series. In the semi-finals, he relied on his rich experience to defeat Knighton of the unlucky country and advanced to the finals as the first in the group. However,

This time his opponent is much stronger than before, I hope he can give full play and achieve a good result!"

"Lane 3, this is the third unlucky player on the field - Kenneth Bednarek. This player is called [KongfuKenh]. He likes Chinese Kung Fu very much. In the semi-finals, he refreshed himself

My personal best time was 19.74 seconds. Unfortunately, I met Wu Ziyi and De Grasse and had to be on the bench."

"Lane 6, Rio Olympics, London World Championships and Doha World Championships champion, the second man in the world's men's 200m history - Wu Ziyi!"

“At the 2019 World Championships in Doha, Wu Ziyi beat the original second man in history, Yohan Blake, by 0.04 seconds. I wonder if he can beat Usain Bolt’s 19.19 seconds in this competition.

Launch the most powerful impact."

As Yang Jian explained, the eight players arrived at their positions one after another, and the on-site cameras once again focused on them on the curve, from Elijan Knighton in lane 9 to Noah Lai in lane 2.

Else, the on-site host read out the names of the contestants again in order from outside to inside.

There were no cheers or applause at the scene. The very few spectators gathered in the stands behind the 100-meter finish line. Even if they cheered for their favorite athletes, it was difficult for the athletes at the other end of the stadium to hear them.

"Onyourmarks~"

After everyone was given instructions to get into position, the camera focused directly on Wu Ziyi. He smiled brightly at the camera and then walked forward easily.

He has black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin. He is wearing a bright red uniform and looks so dazzling against the orange runway.

Tens of thousands of domestic viewers have their hearts set on him at this time. This is another young man who can become "great" after Liu Xiang. He will fly towards an even greater road tonight.

"Perhaps Wu Ziyi is thinking in his heart right now - I set an Olympic record in the 100 meters and won the championship. I was forced to run 19.65 seconds in the 200 meters semi-final by two strong opponents. I may not do that well in this final.

Wonderful, but I will still defend my championship honor and do my best to defend the title..."

Yang Jian rarely says anything that he is not sure about. Nowadays, expectations for Wu Ziyi at home and abroad have been raised to the highest level, and there is even a hidden saying that "Wu Ziyi will fail if he does not break the world record."

It's hard to live in a high place. Yang Jian hopes that his words can make some extreme viewers become more sensible, because Wu Ziyi has done a good enough job. He is the pride of China and he must not become the second Liu Xiang!

At the starting line of the men's 200-meter race, Wu Ziyi stretched casually on the spot, adjusted his breathing rhythm, then squatted down and stepped on the starting block.

He was in lane 6, with De Grasse, Farnborough and Knighton in front of him. It didn't matter who was behind him, because he wouldn't give them the chance to overtake him in the corners.

The time before Wu Ziyi was reborn was August 1. He only had time to watch the men's 100-meter final, and he didn't know where De Grasse's limit was. After several years of adjustment, De Grasse reached a new peak, but he

His running style is destined to be unable to put pressure on Wu Ziyi in the corners.

However, judging from the performance in the semi-finals, De Grasse is undoubtedly the strongest contender for the championship, and Bednarek's performance is also very strong and not weaker than Lyles.

The overall strength of the men's 200-meter lineup in this Olympic Games can be said to be the strongest in history, but even so, Wu Ziyi didn't care at all.

He has already broken the Olympic record and world record held by Usain Bolt in the men's 100 meters. There is no reason why he can't do the 200 meters. Even if it's not today, he will definitely be able to do it in the future!

What he needs to do now is to show his best, all the conditions are met, let go and run!

De Grasse put on his expensive Oakley sports sunglasses to make himself cooler. The dark field of vision can block the visual impact of the asymmetric left and right imbalance caused by the advertising baffles, and at the same time, it can separate the bright lights in the stadium.

The dazzling effect caused by the light is reduced to a minimum, and the most important thing is that it can eliminate the interference of the opponent's rhythm to a certain extent.

For example, the pervert behind him.

Lean over, lower your head, concentrate and prepare to listen to the gun.

Everything is ready, the war is about to begin!

"Set——"

The preparatory command sounded. After receiving the preparatory command, the eight players on the field quickly raised their hips and changed from the squatting position to the starting position.

The strong fingers are stably supporting the body, and the feet are firmly stepped on the running gear. The leg muscles have already accumulated the energy required for the starting burst. The whole body is like a bow with a full moon, and the peerless arrow is just waiting for it.

A gunshot will burst out of the air.

"boom--!!"

It is this gunshot. When it sounds, every athlete who steps on the track will run with all his strength. After years of hard work, the pain after enduring acid, the sweat under the scorching sun, and the tears when there is no one around.

...

Everything started with the sound of a gunshot.
To be continued...
