On August 22, the much-anticipated 15th World Athletics Championships finally opened in BJ.
At 12 noon, Wang Ai appeared at the location of the Chinese track and field delegation on time, and then arrived at the Bird's Nest by car.
At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, officials came to inform Wang Ai that he could play. This was the fourth group of the qualifying round, and Wang Ai was on the third track.
The originally sparse noise suddenly rose when Wang Ai's figure appeared behind the camera, and the huge bird's nest seemed to turn into a beehive. Wang Ai couldn't help but look up in shock.
Without time to think too much, Wang Ai came to his track and concentrated on preparations. A moment later, with a gunshot, eight people rushed out almost at the same time. Almost at this moment, Wang Ai's lead was reflected.
At 20 meters, he was two lengths ahead of the second place. Fortunately, he did not forget the coach's instruction to "ensure promotion within 10 seconds." He took the initiative to pull back in the second half and ran first with a time of 9.92 seconds.
Pass the finish line.
Facing the swarming reporters, Wang Ai waved as he ran: "If you have something to say, I'll tell you tomorrow night."
Fortunately, this was a qualifying round, and although Wang Ai's news value was considerable, the big challenge was yet to come, and Wang Ai was able to retreat smoothly.
In the evening, Wang Ai watched the opening ceremony at the hotel. Then, accompanied by his coach and security guards, he left the hotel again and returned to the delegation, and appeared on the track of the men's 100-meter preliminaries at 7:20 p.m.
In the qualifying race in the morning, Wang Ai ran second overall, which made track and field fans excited for most of the day. As night fell, the World Championships officially began, and the number of viewers from the Internet and TV increased sharply. Many people who usually broadcast Wang Ai
The competition bars and squares all switched signals at this moment.
Wang Ai didn't see Bolt. They were not in the same group. Instead, he saw Gai Yin. His best result was 0.02 seconds faster than Wang Ai's. If according to the coach's analysis, if Wang Ai's performance was average, then Gai Yin might
He is Wang Ai's biggest opponent for medals this year.
However, the two were not in the same group. Gai Yin ran first and ran 9.91 seconds. Then Wang Ai and a group of unknown people started running. Wang Ai continued to lead the whole race, and it was visible to the naked eye in the second half. In the end,
The time was 9.88 seconds.
This time, after Wang Ai finished his run, he stayed in the crowd of reporters beside the track for a minute, but did not respond to the reporters' questions. Instead, he allowed them to take photos and briefly interacted with nearby spectators before leaving.
Wang Ai's social account has still not been updated, and his personal mobile phone is still silent, but after two 100-meter races, people were pleasantly surprised to find that Wang Ai's unstable performance has been greatly improved compared to two years ago.
Wang Ai lacked intuitive perception of his own speed, and either used too little force or too much force, but this time he was much more steady.
And as the top five record holders in the world, including him, except for the injured John Blake, all four who came successfully advanced, and the popularity of the men's 100 meters increased. That night, various countries
The news is more or less focused on tomorrow's semi-finals and finals. When selecting the game clips, they invariably played the clips of Bolt and Wang Ai. Many hosts said in unison that this is the most interesting hundred in the world.
rice duel.

Some even said that this was a battle for Bolt's dignity, expressing some concerns about the Lightning, whose form has been steadily declining in recent years. In contrast, CCTV, as the host, was more generous and did not say anything to sow discord. , but secretly changed Wang Ai’s news time to the first, and Bolt’s to the second.
The next day came. Wang Ai showed up at the Bird's Nest at 7pm on time. This time he saw Bolt, but the crowd had no time to say hello. Tonight was the semi-finals and finals, and the competition reached its climax. , Wang Ai did not dare to be careless, and immediately gathered his mind and waited for the game to start.
At 19:20, Wang Ai, who was third in the preliminaries, was placed in the fourth lane of the first group. After simple preparations, he followed the referee's instructions and lay down on the track with his feet on the running gear and held his breath.
There was a gunshot, Wang Ai kicked hard with both feet, and he ran out immediately, but this time Gai Yin started faster than him. Wang Ai was arrogant, feeling his body condition all the time, adjusting his strength release, and gradually overtook him in the second half of the race. Gai Yin, still passed the finish line like a gust of wind.
After running for more than 50 meters, Wang Ai stopped and turned around to find that the competition was valid and wanted to leave. The reporters reminded him loudly, so he glanced at the timing board, which showed the result of "9 seconds 77". This is China and Asia. Second best 100m time.
Although China's 100-meter time has made great progress in the past two years, no one has yet broken through 9.8 seconds. Wang Ai's 9.71 seconds and 9.77 seconds this time are still outstanding.
"Wang Ai, Wang Ai, tell me a few words, how do you feel?" The reporters blocked Wang Ai and refused to let him leave.
"Two sentences?" Wang Ai exhaled: "The first sentence is, thank you for your concern, everyone has worked hard; the second sentence, I feel that it can be faster."
After finishing speaking, Wang Ai shook his head and ignored it, and took a rest under the protection of his coach. There were still two hours left in the final, and Wang Ai had to seize the time to rest and adjust. If he didn't adjust well in these two hours, it was very likely that the final would not be as good as the semi-finals.
At this time, the benefits of the organizer were revealed. While Bolt and the others were crowded into a certain lounge with the Jamaican delegation, Wang Ai was led by the Bird's Nest staff to a separate room with air conditioning and bathroom. There is a bedroom, a luxurious lounge with a massage table and even a dining table.
Someone from the Chinese delegation asked how Wang Ai was doing, and Wang Ai replied that everything was fine; the masseur brought from Shenyang asked Wang Ai if she needed a massage, and Wang Ai said not for the time being. Kangsi brought out milk chocolate and beef brisket. Asked Wang Ai if he wanted to eat something, Wang Ai said he didn't want to for the time being. The coach asked Wang Ai if he had a strain, and Wang Ai said everything was normal...
Everyone is eagerly surrounding him and preparing to go all out to satisfy him. Wang Ai feels that he will never have time to do this even if he is a super giant in football. He probably wants to retire and the old coach will give him a pole dance, and the old man can agree. …
After resting quietly for two hours, at 9:10 pm, the much-anticipated men's 100-meter final was about to come. Wang Ai also appeared again amidst the roar of the mountains and the tsunami. This time he finally saw Bolt up close.
What surprised Wang Ai was that Bolt's upper body muscles were smaller than they were seven or eight years ago. Although he was still burly compared to the average person, he was already thinner. While doing the preparatory movements, Wang Ai recalled Bolt's upper body muscles.
Especially in this preliminaries and semi-finals, he showed obvious difficulty in accelerating, which made him feel confident.
"Maybe I'm not as good as you at your peak, but you have declined so obviously, and I haven't felt the power of time yet." Wang Ai thought silently, shaking his muscles that were as plump and toned as before.
