Chapter 45 The Guangdong Youth Championship begins
Chapter 45 The Guangdong Provincial Youth Championship begins
We arrived at the largest gymnasium in Yangcheng.
This gymnasium is one of the best in the country.
It was just put into use the year before last, and the facilities are very new. Yangcheng is also a relatively wealthy provincial capital in China. In addition, the country has spent a lot of money on the Olympics this time... Naturally, a better restaurant was chosen for the competition.
Otherwise, this would generally not be approved for use in youth tournaments.
It will be more normal to use the second-class one.
This place was the place where Wang Fei’s concert was held during the Ninth National Games a few years ago. David Copperfield also held his own large-scale magician solo show here. There were also numerous large-scale performances at competitions and concerts in the future.
One of the first choice places.
The facilities can be said to be among the top first-tier venues in the country.
People nowadays don't have many opportunities to go out when they were students, and most of them come here only once. Therefore, they all say that the Yangcheng Central Gymnasium looks very spectacular.
Just one project covers an area of 240,000 square meters, and the construction area is as high as 170,000 square meters. These figures are enough to scare these students in Xiangshan City and secretly gasp.
Zhou Bing was also exclaiming "oh oh oh" everywhere along the way, but Su Shen was used to it and seemed very calm throughout the whole process.
"Tim, why are you not surprised at all? This is so spectacular and beautiful."
"It's quite spectacular and beautiful."
"Then you..." Zhou Bing shook his head. He really felt that Su Shen sometimes didn't look like a boy of the same age who was less than 16 years old.
More like his dad.
Su Shen:......
"I heard that this time it is a big competition that unites Xiangjiang, Mazu, and Baodao. I'm afraid all provincial competitions will be like this this year. We may meet that Yi Xiaoqiang again." When it comes to this, it is true, when I came in
Then he saw Yi Xiaoqiang. He was in the Xiangjiang team, and his team uniform had a clear bauhinia logo. Yi Xiaoqiang naturally remembered Su Shen freshly in his mind when he saw Su Shen, so he came over to say hello, and he was very surprised...
Remember, the biggest dark horse in the Pearl River Delta Invitational Tournament is not yet 16, right? He can already participate in a competition of this level?
It looks like... there may be significant progress again. Don't underestimate the enemy.
"Are you also running 100 meters and 200 meters this time?" Su Shen asked casually.
"Yes, what about you? Too?" Yi Xiaoqiang said.
"No, I'm not as good as you. I'm just here to learn from experience. I didn't even make it out of the team trials for 200 meters." After Su Shen said this, Yi Xiaoqiang nodded. After all... this is the right thing. If you
Tell me, your 200-meter speed suddenly changed from 23.13 seconds to a level that can compete in the 200-meter provincial competition. That really makes Yi Xiaoqiang's heart break.
I feel like my training has been in vain.
"How is your recovery from the injury going?"
"It's okay, I've almost recovered." Yi Xiaoqiang said: "I hope we can continue to compete this time."
"That's hard to say." Su Shen said with a smile: "I'm afraid I'm just going to be out of the first round this time. If I can reach the semi-finals, I'll be satisfied."
"It's okay, you are still young. There are many provincial competitions in Guangdong Province this year, and we will meet often." Yi Xiaoqiang was relieved when he heard Su Shen said this. Fortunately, this guy is not the Saiyan from Wuyi.
.Otherwise, Yi Xiaoqiang would really feel that the blow was too great.
Everyone got familiar with the venue, went through the identity check, and after receiving their passes, they ran around a little while the coaches took a rest while waiting for the opening ceremony to begin.
After the opening ceremony of the competition, all the students from the sports school were taken back collectively. They must go to bed early today and no one is allowed to stay up late, otherwise they will definitely have no energy tomorrow.
After sleeping all day, I got up early the next day to do basic stretching and activities so that I could compete at my best.
This guy Zhou Bing actually didn't sleep well.
However, I feel relieved when I think that Zhou Bing has participated in several low-level small and medium-sized invitational competitions more than me. This is the first time for such a competition. Think about myself, when I participated in the provincial competition for the first time in my previous life, I was not
Didn't you get much rest after a stressful night?
The more it is, the better it will be.
There is no trick either.
There are seven days of competition, which is quite ample, but after the competition, you will be taken back by the coach first, so there is no need to stay for the closing ceremony. The women's competition is in front, and everyone is cheering for Chen Juan.
She performed well and took the lead in winning a spot in the semi-finals. This also made the two boys on Ningdebao's side feel that they could not lose to the girl Juan.
The preliminaries between Su Shen and Zhou Bing are in the afternoon. They are not in the same group because there are so many people. There are more than a dozen groups in the preliminaries. Su Shen is in the seventh group and Zhou Bing is in the eighth group. The two of them can take a look at the rest first.
Strength.
The seed player in the first group is Yin Hualong. He is a strongman known as "The First Scud in the West" and is nicknamed "Iron Bull". He is 170cm tall and can be regarded as a short player with a quick pace like Su Shen. Yin Hualong started in 2003.
In 11 seconds, I got a score of 10.90. Last year, my best score was in Tianjin Wei, 10.49, which has already broken the 10.50 threshold and entered the realm of masters.
Now it is said that it can run to around 10.40.
This is all Ning Debao's data analysis, but Su Shen knows very well... This person probably has the ability to open 10.40 now. Because in my memory, Yin Hualong will score a strong 10.38 in the Mountain City Championship next month.
Results. But this is his limit, and subsequent improvements are extremely limited.
And the current group of people basically have the possibility of changing their age.
So there are situations where they retire very early.
Yin Hualong has not competed in the 100 meters since 2009, and has not competed in indoor competitions since 2010. At this time, he was only about 23 to 24 years old. To be honest, he would have retired at his peak at this age. If it were not for injuries, he would have retired at his peak.
It's really weird. Even if the running peak is not long, it is still much higher than gymnastics. Now internationally, he is about 28 years old.
This age is too early, he should still be at his peak.
But he had already dropped to 10.64 in 2009, which was also the last effective 100-meter time he recorded in the IAAF.
Changing the age is wrong.
But it's not the athlete's fault.
Not to mention track and field, basketball and football are not like this at the moment.
It's all about the legacy of the times, and they can't make the decision on their own.
The direct consequence of this is that you don’t even know who has changed or who has not.
You don’t know who still has potential and who doesn’t.
As the seed player in this group, he is undoubtedly the fastest, easily advancing in 10.90.
Judging from Yin Hualong's condition, it is obvious that he still has a lot of energy left.
The second group has Wen Yongyi as the seed. He is more interesting. His face obviously does not look like a teenager. Although you can also say that he looks older, similar to Mu Shenyi. But there is a BUG in later generations.
The law is broken.
That is... His age has always been 87 years on the IAAF official website.
But the encyclopedia of his later generations is from 1984. Which one is true? Everyone has a different opinion.
Wen Yongyi entered the master class last year, and his current fastest effective result was in the competition in Jingjiang last year, where he got 10.34. He should currently be better than the "No. 1 Scud in the West" Yin Hualong above.
He ran a 10.85 and was also ranked first in the group.
The rest are generally under 11 seconds.
Everyone must not have the illusion that it is easy to be within 11 seconds. In fact, even in European and American competitions, at the U18 level, basically half of the group matches cannot break 11 seconds. But we usually start paying attention from the semi-finals.
By this time, all the ordinary low-level athletes had finished running with him.
Yi Xiaoqiang scored 10.83 in the fourth group and entered the second round. It can be seen that his group is relatively strong.
Otherwise, there would be no need for the group stage to run so fast.
Finally arrived at the sixth group.
Suddenly everyone cheered louder because the current record holder in the youth group was about to appear.
He is currently the number one sprinting genius in the country.
Zhao Haohuan.
Although he waved his hand, there was no smile on his face.
But it doesn't matter, everyone is not here to see him giggle, just run well.
Not to mention the excitement on Zhou Bing's face, it was also the first time for Su Shen to see Zhao Haohuan running away.
When he came in before, Zhao Haohuan had retreated and he had never seen him with his own eyes.
Zhou Bing saw that Su Shen finally started to watch seriously, and thought to himself that even Su Shen would not be able to remain calm in the face of the "number one genius".
“Bang——————”
As soon as the starting gun was fired, Su Shen's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Zhao Haohuan takes the lead."
"Zhao Haohuan had a good start."
"He is worthy of being the number one genius among young people. He has already left many people behind."
"Beautiful! Zhao Haohuan passed the finish line in first place without a doubt, with a score of 10.66, currently the highest in the group stage!"
Listening to Zhou Bing beside him cheering loudly for his idol, Su Shen looked at that figure and slowly frowned.
Because he discovered a problem.
The number one genius in the country is...panting.
It's not just ordinary wheezing, it seems to be quite severe.
That means that in this run, he did not retain much strength like the seeds in the previous groups.
Su Shen recalled it carefully, and it seemed that this year was the year that Zhao Haohuan slipped from the altar.
Starting from this year, he will no longer be able to reach the level of a master.
The so-called first genius will completely fall in 2005.
