Chapter 409 9.88
"Everyone is in position!"

"preparation!"

"Bah!"

Suddenly, gunshots rang out.

Almost at the same moment, He Zhongqiu made a first-class starting reaction, and with a sudden push of his legs, he took the first step instantly.

The first three steps are very important. He starts to exert force while controlling his stride.

In the live studio, Sun Zhenping shouted: "Great start! Wow, the athlete next to him has surpassed Zhongqiu, and Zhongqiu fell behind and is now in second place!"

At the scene, after seeing the start, Li Hong was a little confused. Why did Zhongqiu fall behind?
He Zhongqiu noticed that the little guy next to him, Su Bangtian, surpassed him, but that didn’t matter because the first 35 meters of acceleration were his slowest stage.

In the seventh and eighth steps, when he rushed to 20 meters, he had already caught up with Su Bangtian. His 120-level explosive power began to burst out at full force, and he began to accelerate with full force.

"It's even! It's even! Mid-Autumn Festival has exceeded!" Li Hong shouted excitedly.

"It's surpassed!" Yang Jian beside him shouted excitedly.

In the CCTV live studio, Sun Haiping said excitedly: "The stride length is amazing. He Zhongqiu's stride length is very large and his acceleration is excellent. He has a good chance of breaking 10."

"Oh oh oh……"

"Clap clap clap..."

When the more than 30,000 spectators at the scene saw He Zhongqiu rush to the front, they began to cheer and applaud. The cheers were like waves and the applause was like thunder.

"Break ten! Break ten! Break ten..."

Huge cheers continued to ring out in the Yutung International Center Stadium, as He Zhongqiu rushed forward.

After overtaking Su Biaotian at 22 meters, He Zhongqiu started to leave the others far behind.

When he passed 35 meters and entered the mid-run stage, he ran at full speed, with each step being 2.85 meters, and rushed to the finish line like a super-heavy Ferrari running at full power.

"So fast?! What a long stride!"

Su Bangtian ran as hard as he could, using all his strength, but he was too short and his strides were too small, so he was getting further and further away from He Zhongqiu.

"Break ten! Break ten..."

When the audience saw He Zhongqiu leaving the second place Su Bangtian further and further behind, the cheers became louder and louder, sweeping across the sky like a hurricane.

Entering the last 20 meters, He Zhongqiu took a short breath, held his breath, and began the final all-out sprint.

At this time, he had already left the second place Su Bangtian nearly ten meters away.

"Cross the finish line! Cross the finish line!"

In Yanjing, in the CCTV live broadcast room, Han Qiaoshen shouted with great excitement.

At the finish line, He Zhongqiu dived forward with his upper body and crossed the finish line in an instant.

Yu Tung Centre seemed very quiet. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the electronic screen at the finish line, and no one was paying attention to the athletes who crossed the finish line later.

A few seconds later, the electronic screen lit up: 9.88 seconds.

"boom!"

It was as if thousands of pounds of TNT had exploded, and huge shouts and cheers rose into the sky.

"Break it! Break 9.88! 100 seconds! This is a new Chinese -meter record, and also a new Asian record. Asian Flying Man, He Zhongqiu is the fastest runner among the yellow race!"

At this moment, Han Qiaoshen's hoarse and extremely passionate voice rang out on countless televisions in China.

"9.88 seconds, congratulations on Zhongqiu, creating another great moment." Li Hong said excitedly to the CCTV camera.

In the CCTV 9.88 o'clock live studio, announcer Kang Fei said in a slightly excited tone: "Congratulations to He Zhongqiu. With a time of seconds, you have created a great moment for the Chinese and Asians."

His partner Li Zimeng then said a little faster: "Just like the long jump world record of 8.99 meters that He Zhongqiu just set this morning, this is another epoch-making historical moment. Congratulations to He Zhongqiu, the people of the whole country are looking forward to your performance in the Yanjing Olympics."

At this point, the live broadcast ended, taking exactly 3 minutes, not a second off.

“9.88 meters, done!”

Director Liu breathed a sigh of relief. Even if He Zhongqiu did not make any progress in the next year, this result would be enough for him to enter the 100m final at the Yanjing Olympics.

Up to now, no Chinese athlete has entered the Olympic 100m final, which would be a huge breakthrough.

“9秒88！9秒88！9秒88……”

At the Yutung International Center Stadium, huge cheers resounded through the heavens and earth, and 32,000 people stood up and waved their arms towards He Zhongqiu.

Amid the huge cheers and shouts, He Zhongqiu kept waving to the audience.

He ran back to the finish line, bumped fists and shook hands with the other athletes, then glanced at the electronic screen.

"9.88 seconds? Not bad."

His previous best training result was 9.89 seconds, and this actual competition improved it by 0.01 seconds, which shows that he is indeed a competition-type person.

"Wolverine……"

A large group of Chinese and foreign reporters rushed over and surrounded him.

Li Hong and Yang Jian led the photography team to run from the starting line to the finish line. They were a little slow and failed to squeeze in. They were so anxious that sweat broke out on their foreheads.

He Zhongqiu took a few steps towards Li Hong, then let a few people come up to him and started to be interviewed.

"Too partial. It was like this this morning and now it's like this. She only favors Li Hong. Is Yang Ma the boss?"

"The Central Bank is not the boss, but Hunan Satellite TV is the boss?"

"CCTV Channel 5 is going too far. They actually borrowed Li Hong for the interview. Is this considered cheating?"

"If necessary, they can even borrow Li Sisi, Dong Qing, and Zhou Tao. What can you do?"

"You're making it sound like there aren't any beautiful hosts on our station?"

"That's right, your station can send Mr. He over for an interview."

"Ha ha……"

A group of Chinese reporters were talking quietly in the crowd of reporters. He Zhongqiu was not deaf. He glanced at them and the discussion immediately died down. "Zhongqiu, congratulations, 9.88 seconds." Li Hong said excitedly.

"Thank you!"

"Are you satisfied with this result?"

"Satisfied, this is the best result I have achieved so far."

"I hope you can perform so well in the finals as well."

"I also hope that."

In the CCTV live broadcast studio, Han Qiaoshen and two others were excitedly discussing the result of 9.88 seconds.

Sun Haiping said: "It is still 9.77 seconds away from the world record of 0.11 seconds. This gap is very large. For a 0.01-meter race, seconds is a huge gap.

But I feel that Zhongqiu has a chance to break 9.77 seconds. His explosive power is the strongest among the yellow race, and no black person has a stronger explosive power than him. He himself is very confident that he can break the world record."

Han Qiaoshen nodded and said, "With this result, Coach Sun, we should be able to enter the Olympic finals, right?"

Sun Haiping nodded and said, "It should be no problem. In track and field events, each country is only allowed to

With three people competing, a score within 9.9 is enough to make the finals.”

Sun Zhenping said: "9.88 seconds, this result has been recorded in the history of Chinese track and field. We are now looking forward to Zhongqiu achieving even better results on the -meter track."

The first day of competition was over. He Zhongqiu was in a good mood and full of energy because of his good results and breaking the world record for long jump.

He called Yang Xue and listened to the two babies babbling on the other end of the phone. He went to bed a little late and didn't get up until seven o'clock the next morning, an hour late.

After practicing standing meditation for half an hour, washing up and having breakfast, I rushed to the stadium with Li Hong and his group. We arrived at 8:50.

The 200m preliminaries started at 9.40 minutes, so there was still plenty of time, so he changed his clothes and came to the stadium.

Just like yesterday, the auditorium of 32,000 people was full, with some people standing in the aisle, probably having come in through the back door.

When he appeared on stage, he was greeted with overwhelming cheers.

The live broadcast of CCTV-5 started at 9 a.m. The commentators were Han Qiaoshen and Sun Zhenping again, and the guest was Sun Haiping.

There are also several front-line commentators, one of whom is Li Hong.

At this time, the live camera of Channel 5 switched to Li Hong, and she introduced some information about He Zhongqiu related to the competition to the camera.

Some of this information was provided by Yang Jian and his team, and some was looked up by herself. She had memorized it all as soon as she looked at the small piece of paper.

"Dear audience, there are 200 participants in the 22m preliminaries, divided into three groups. Zhongqiu is in the first group and was drawn to lane 6. Her luck is similar to yesterday. The 200m race starts from the second bend, and lanes and are golden tracks."

"In addition, the best training result of Zhongqiu in the 200m is 20.01 seconds, which is not even under 20 seconds."

"The world record is Michael Johnson's 19.32 seconds. The American also holds the world record for the 400 meters."

"The Chinese 200-meter record is 20.54 seconds, set by Han Chaoming in 06. There will be no problem for Zhongqiu to break this record."

"The Asian record for the 200m was set by Japanese athlete Hiroshi Ito in 98, with a time of 20.03 seconds. If Chu-Autumn is in good shape, he will have a chance to break this record."

Following Li Hong's introduction, countless Chinese people who were watching the game began to look forward to it again.

They expect He Zhongqiu to break the national and Asian records in the 200 meters, and they will be even happier if he can break the record held by the Japanese.

After the women's 200m preliminaries, it was the turn of the men's 200m preliminaries. The first group, He Zhongqiu and seven others, walked to the starting point of the track.

In the sixth lane, he adjusted his running gear and tried to start several times. Then the referee signaled for him to get ready and he squatted down.

"The current wind speed is 0.9 meters per second," said Li Hong.

"Bah!"

With the sound of a gunshot, He Zhongqiu completed the start with the fastest reaction speed and rushed forward.

Yesterday his reaction time for the 0.151-meter sprint was seconds. He felt his reaction time should be faster this time.

Twenty meters later, before he even finished the acceleration phase, he was already ahead of the other seven people.

It’s not about how strong his 200-meter acceleration is now. His first 120 meters are not top-notch internationally, but because his opponents are too weak.

"Oh oh oh……"

The 32,000 people in the audience shouted and cheered passionately.

After fifty meters, he reached full speed and the gap between him and the others began to widen.

Of course, the speed at this time is the curve speed, not the straight speed.

The standard 400-meter track and field stadium has two bends and two straights. The bend is 228 meters long and the straight is 172 meters long.

The 200-meter race is different from the 100-meter race in that it has a curve that is 114 meters long and a straight line that is 86 meters long.

The 200-meter race starts on a curve. The first 114 meters need to be run inside, and the first 50 meters require full acceleration to increase the speed.

但中间的100米需要慢一点，保持90%到95%的速度，最后50米直道进行200%的冲刺。

Your physical energy must be allocated well. If you go too fast at the beginning, it will affect the final sprint.

But this is a general statement. The straight line is 86 meters. If an athlete is very well-charged, he can burst into speed when entering the last 86 meters of the straight line, without having to wait until the last 50 meters.

However, there are very few such athletes. If there are any, they must be the world's top 200-meter athletes, like Michael Johnson.

He Zhongqiu was a person with excellent physical fitness. He ran the fastest in the last 80 meters, but his cornering technique for the first 120 meters was not yet well-trained, which affected his 200-meter result.

After entering the straight, he began to accelerate, and after five steps he reached full speed, and in the last 72 meters he entered the full speed stage.

While he was sprinting, Li Hong and a large number of reporters were taking a shortcut, crossing the 35-meter radius of the track and running towards the finish line at full speed.

Some reporters carrying cameras ran very fast and surpassed Li Hong one by one, making her so anxious that she wanted to trip them.

CCTV had two cameras, one at the starting point and one at the end point, aimed at He Zhongqiu as he entered the straight ahead.

In the CCTV live broadcast room, Han Qiaoshen shouted excitedly: "Zhongqiu has entered the straight and is accelerating, getting faster and faster.

The last fifty meters... thirty meters... twenty meters... the last ten meters, without slowing down, I crossed the finish line! I crossed the finish line!"
