“The real Chinese flying man!”

“A real man, a real hero!”

“Liu Xiang, you are awesome!”

“Liu Xiang, I love you!”

“Liu, are you free to have coffee together tonight?”

“Liu, do you want to take a photo?”

“Liu Xiang! I’m a tennis player. I’m in good shape. Do you want to have a chat?”

“Liu Xiang, tonight belongs to you! I can belong to you too!”

Liu Xiang’s Weibo and blog accounts from 8 years ago have all been updated:
“I think it’s enough for me to be able to bring a gust of wind to an era.”

Chinese track and field, the Asian 110m hurdles event is about to become very popular!

Liu Xiang really won’t be able to sleep tonight, because every step he takes in the Olympic Village, British volunteer ladies and athletes from various countries will greet him.

There are people all around me, mostly women.
Mainly, male reporters wouldn’t stick around for so long.

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!

The honor and added value he gained after reaching the top again after 8 years were limitless. At least for the week after that, he was the king of popularity.

The Chinese team is already considering whether to change the flag bearer for the closing ceremony to Liu Xiang. Originally it was Yi Jianlian, but this year’s men’s basketball team was eliminated in the quarterfinals in the group stage.

Moreover, Yi Jianlian’s performance is not as good as Xu Yong’s. However, Xu Yong is a two-way contract player in the Spurs, so his fame and status are much worse than Yi Jianlian’s.
So Liu Xiang, who won the championship now, is more suitable.

As we all know, the number of small umbrellas distributed at each Olympic Games is at a new high, and it is common for athletes to date in the Olympic Village.

The main reason is that many events have been completed and half of the people have left the Olympic Village, and Liu Xiang has received many invitations from beautiful girls.

Jiang Ming was also smart enough to move out of Liu Xiang’s room to make it easier for him to separate the wet and dry areas.

He moved to Su Bingtian’s room because Su Bingtian had an important competition the next day. This was purely Jiang Ming’s own obligation. The national team did not allocate money to Su Bingtian’s team. The Chinese track and field team had never expected that Su Bingtian would enter the 100-meter final.

But now Jiang Ming and Su Bingtian are already brothers. After Jiang Ming moved in, the big boy Su Bingtian hurried to help him make the bed. He was flattered.

Jiang Ming didn’t need to worry about what happened to Liu Xiang afterwards. He didn’t even do physical therapy after the game. The gold medal was king, and all he needed to do was celebrate.

Originally, several good-looking British college girls invited Jiang Ming to spend a night in their volunteer dormitory, but Jiang Ming politely declined, being a gentleman and deciding to wait until he was completely free from work tomorrow night.

The main reason is that there is a girl who looks like Hermione. Plus, there are Harry Potter-related stores everywhere in England. If she wears a magic robe, she will look like a wizard.
But not tonight.

Because he has to make final preparations for Su Bingtian tonight and tomorrow morning, he must arrange acupuncture and personally perform moxibustion.

The 100-meter sprint actually requires more explosive power and core strength than the 110-meter hurdles, so Su Bingtian was scolded by Jiang Ming and told to go back and not fold the quilt.

From now until the final, don’t waste any of your energy, rest well, and make a big splash in the final.

“Although it’s a bit difficult to compete with Bolt and Gatlin, I can compete with myself and surpass myself!”

This is the goal Jiang Ming gave to Su Bingtian. It’s the Olympic final, and he must fight to the death.

Su Bingtian also gritted his teeth and said fiercely:

“Of course! My grandfather told me that if I can break 10 seconds, I can go back and open a page in the family tree!”

“Oh my god, this reward is quite generous. No wonder you are so fierce.”

Jiang Ming knew what significance this single page of the family tree had for the people of Guangdong and Guangxi.

Let’s take a simple example to illustrate this. Yi Jianlian hasn’t even opened a separate page yet!

So Jiang Ming wisely didn’t say any more chicken soup-like words. His grandfather’s words were as important as an imperial decree.

In the evening, Su Bingtian did not go to the gym to jog and warm up as usual. Instead, he followed Jiang Ming to modify the details of the movements, repeated them continuously, and finally achieved a breakthrough on the court!
Jiang Ming and Su Bingtian’s coach also watched the videos of the three Olympic competitions many times. The starting and acceleration stages are Su Bingtian’s most outstanding strengths.

“The first 30 meters are invincible, and we need to make good use of it, but we also need to coordinate well.”

Jiang Ming signaled his scientific team to come over and analyze why the first 30 meters were so explosive and the last 70 meters were weakened so much at once.

The sports medicine experts at the clinic will also come to the conclusion tomorrow.

Su Bingtian’s advantage in the first 30 meters due to his super high stride frequency will gradually turn into a disadvantage in the last 70 meters. The extreme consumption of cardiopulmonary muscles caused by each extra step and the friction resistance caused by each extra step will weaken the sprint limit of his relatively thin body. Therefore, Su Bingtian’s speed in the second half is often far slower than that of his opponents.

Su Bingtian himself said that when he competed with Bolt in the first round, he was stunned by Bolt’s speed: “When he accelerated, he passed me in a flash. I was stunned at the time. My mind was blank. I didn’t know how I ran.”

When Bolt takes a step, he can gain 30 centimeters more than Su Bingtian. Su Bingtian can only shorten the gap between the two by swinging his legs faster.

Jiang Ming’s team calculated that if Bolt could run 8.46 meters at Su Bingtian’s pace, he could achieve a maximum time of 9 seconds, which is more than one second faster than his own world record of 58 seconds.

The coach also said:
“I still have a big advantage in the 60m, 100m final.”

He didn’t finish his words, but what he meant was that he didn’t know how to arrange the tactics, and the result would most likely be at the bottom, so he really didn’t know how to teach.

Because as early as the 90s, China’s 100-meter race had the characteristic of “fast at the beginning and slow at the end”, whether it was 400 meters or meters, and was subsequently overtaken by the Japanese sprint world.

He was honest with the media about the semi-finals, and it was all thanks to Jiang Ming. As a local coach, he taught everything he could.

And to be honest, only Jiang Ming dared to think about 10 seconds. The coach knew very well that Su Bingtian’s performance in the 100-meter race had never been able to break the 10-second mark, and his best result had always hovered between 10 and 1 seconds.

No matter how favorable the wind was in the race, I never ran under 10 seconds.

So just continue to listen to Jiang Ming and everything will be fine!
Su Bingtian was indeed very obedient and told Jiang Ming the truth about his running condition:

“When I ran five meters, I ran at my maximum speed, while others basically reached their maximum speed after 40 or 50 meters.”

“More power is used in the front, which will lead to a decrease in rhythm and physical fitness in the back.”

Of course he knew that he had never broken 10 seconds, but since it was the Olympic final, he wanted to give it a try!
Try to see what you can do with the extreme help of Jiang Ming’s top team.

At this time, Jiang Ming’s doctor said:

There has long been a call in China’s domestic sprinting community to “reduce cadence and increase stride length”. Some believe that long-term high-cadence training prevents athletes from stretching their technical movements, and that athletes are unable to maintain the high cadence of the starting phase for a long time, so they cannot maintain the maximum speed during the acceleration and mid-run phases.

In Su Bingtian’s 100-meter race footage, it is not uncommon to see him leading at the start and being overtaken midway.

But some people think that blindly emphasizing stride length is not scientific. Zhang Peimeng increased his stride length and reduced his step frequency for 10 years, but his results did not improve significantly.

Su Bingtian smiled subconsciously, thinking that Zhang Peimeng would be ashamed to hear this.
“But in any case, maintaining the status quo will only lead to stagnation.

Stop talking nonsense like that now.”

Jiang Ming rolled his eyes at him speechlessly. Doesn’t he mean that Su Bingtian has already been finalized?

“Unless Su Bingtian has the determination to make a heroic move, just like Liu Xiang changed his hurdle pace from 8 steps to 7 steps, and changed his pace to run the finals!”

Another team expert stared at the computer and said that he had simulated it countless times, and with Su Bingtian’s running style in the semi-finals, his best speed in the final would be just over 10 seconds.

If you want to go further, no matter how passionate you are, it will be useless. You need big changes.

“Then change it!”

Su Bingtian and Jiang Ming said at the same time.

Jiang Ming also smiled and said:

“We’ve already made it to the finals. No one in China will criticize us if we run a few seconds. We might as well give it a try, right? We can change it. Isn’t that why we train here tonight?”

Jiang Ming’s statement is very emotionally intelligent. In fact, no matter how you look at it or study the data, Su Bingtian normally comes in last or second to last in the finals.

This is something that passers-by can foresee. After all, compared to the guys in the 110-meter hurdles, the 100-meter runners are even more like animals.

Tomorrow’s final may well be the only time that the five greatest sprinters of all time – Bolt, Blake, Gay, Powell and Gatlin – will ever compete together.

These five people are all super gods with a simple 9 seconds. Some of them will definitely be absent from the next Olympics, so even in China, more attention is paid to the sprinter Bolt.

Since Su Bingtian is basically counting down anyway, why not make a change and try to break through himself using a scientific approach?
Even if time is limited!
Su Bingtian understood it immediately.

Although he studied sports, he was a real undergraduate student, majoring in international economics and trade at the School of Economics of Jinan University, so he quickly said:

“No problem, I’ll change it. Even if I run 15 seconds or something, I won’t regret it. No one will notice me anyway. It’s either life or death.”

“it is good!”

Jiang Ming and his team members gave him a thumbs up. They all saw Su Bingtian’s potential, so they really wanted to help him. And don’t say it’s free. For these experts, who are basically Chinese, if they can help Chinese people run under 10 seconds, it’s a great achievement, and it can be promoted as an honor.

Apart from anything else, Zhang Peimeng and Xie Zhenye will have to come to the sports medicine department of the clinic tomorrow to see a doctor.

So they quickly arranged for Su Bingtian to change his posture!

They had already simulated all of this on their computers, directly changing the positions of the front and back feet at the start, and replanning the 30-meter running rhythm. While maintaining the starting advantage, they put more energy into the middle and back stages after 10 meters: “Changing the starting foot is mainly to change the rhythm. Only this rhythm can help you break seconds.”

Jiang Ming helped to fix Su Bingtian’s starting posture, allowing Su Bingtian to fix it for 10 minutes to form muscle memory, and even think about it all the time!

Su Bingtian was sweating profusely as he fixed himself on the position and tried again and again:

Start with your left foot instead of your right foot.

Change from exerting all your strength in the first half to properly allocating your energy throughout the whole race;
Blow balloons, practice breathing, practice arm strength, practice arm swinging… a little bit of improvement, a little bit of progress.

Changing the rhythm that has been used for 5 years is not easy for professional athletes.

Originally, Jiang Ming wanted to drastically change his stride length and frequency, but this was too difficult and impossible to do in one day.

We can only start with the rhythm.

So when Su Bingtian went to bed at night, his mind was slowing down, and he felt like he was running even when he was dreaming. When he woke up, he felt very tired the next day because he had been training all night.

But the fatigue was cured by an injection given by Jiang Ming in the morning. Combined with the abdominal breathing method taught by Jiang Ming, which allowed him to inhale more oxygen, Su Bingtian suddenly felt much better.

Then go to the track and field arena and try last night’s teaching many times, trying to form muscle memory.

The media and opponents also saw this effort, and they all sighed that the yellow race’s entry into the 100-meter final was indeed the result of hard work and diligence.

Unlike a talented athlete like Bolt, he was called to take doping tests by the Americans several times in the morning but he acted as if nothing had happened.

7pm.

The much anticipated 100m sprint final is about to begin!
Now, except for the men’s and women’s basketball and football finals, all other competitions have been completed, and almost all the athletes who will participate in the closing ceremony are watching the games at the London Bowl.

The Chinese team was a whole red echelon, with Ma Long and Zhang Jike standing at the front and watching.

However, it is obvious that Bolt and Gatlin have more fans, and the whole audience was shocked when they were introduced.

Jiang Ming did not serve as a commentator this time, but he also stood next to Yang Jian. There was nothing for him to instruct now, and Su Bingtian was still repeating the newly modified posture while he was explaining it.

Yang Jian smiled and asked Jiang Mingdao:

“Will our young player Su Bingtian give us a surprise this time?”

Jiang Ming:

“There will definitely be one!”

Behind the starting blocks, Su Bingtian used his index finger to carve a dent on the marking line of lane eight.

The spotlight of the London Bowl cast a shadow like a dragon’s spine on his taut latissimus dorsi. Gatlin, in the seventh lane on the left, was chewing on his braces and looking down on the field. Blake’s sculpted muscles on the right rose and fell like waves with his breathing.

Bolt was the most relaxed, preparing himself easily on the starting blocks after his signature moon-shooting move.

Just when Jiang Ming had no time to react, a tense gunshot rang out.

This caused Jiang Ming, who was watching the game, to have a sudden cardiac arrest for a second, not to mention the athletes in the competition.

run!
“Game start!”

The starting block spring was compressed to its limit, and the forefoot of Su Bingtian’s spikes rubbed against the London Bowl track, creating a blue arc.

On both sides of the eighth lane, Bolt stretched out his 2.44-meter stride like a black hurricane, and Gatlin’s North American muscles trembled and burst out with primitive wildness.

As the hundreds of thousands of people at the scene and hundreds of millions of viewers in front of the screen held their breath, the smoke from the starting gun had not yet dispersed, and Su Bingtian had already torn through the silence like an arrow from a bow – the starting reaction time of 0.122 seconds was faster than lightning!

“Perfect start!” The commentator Yang Jian’s roar pierced the sky.

The American commentators exclaimed:

“Su Bingtian changed his starting position! He stepped with his left foot first!”

“Start with the left foot!!! The arm swing is also different!” the Japanese commentator said in shock.

“The first thirty meters are like a hurdle attack! His body leans forward to 39 degrees, and his gastrocnemius contracts 4.3 times per second! Look at his arm swings – the trajectory of his fists is comparable to the tail flame of an intercontinental missile!”

At fifty meters, Su Bingtian and Powell stood side by side and turned into red and indigo light bands.

“Bite it!”

Jiang Ming held his breath, because the last 40 meters were Su Bingtian’s worst part. If he couldn’t hold on, it would be GG.

But when Bolt entered his signature “cruise mode” in the last 50 meters.

Su Bingtian seemed to roar invisibly, and his hip joints suddenly burst out with a tornado-like torque – this is the oriental engine forged by millions of shuttle runs at the Zhongshan Track and Field Stadium in Guangdong!

Go all out!

No regrets!

This is simply running for your life!

Looking at Su Bingtian’s flying buzz cut, Jiang Ming’s eyes became red.

He actually followed the first echelon!!!

“The last twenty meters!”

“Powell seemed to have a cramp and fell down!”

“Su Bingtian, opportunity!”

The entire audience left their seats!

Bolt is so strong!

In the last 20 meters he rushed to the front alone and crossed the line first!
And the second and third place are very close!!!
Su Bingtian is in the fourth and fifth place!!!
“Su Bingtian is burning! His stride frequency increased from 4.7 steps/second to 4.9 steps/second, and the air resistance caused a sonic boom under the impact of his 207-pound body weight! The American flag in the sixth lane and the five-star red flag in the eighth lane passed the finish line almost parallel to each other—”

And who is the sixth one?

It’s Guy from America!!!
“What’s Su Bingtian’s rank?”

After all of them finished running, Jiang Ming hurried to the track like a group of people to look at the ranking on the big screen of the final timer.

Obviously, the results of a 100-meter race where the margin of victory is very small will not be announced so quickly.

The first one to celebrate was definitely Bolt, who was far ahead of others with a time of 9 seconds and even had some energy left at the end.

The second, third, fourth and fifth place were slow to come out, because it looked like they crossed the finish line together, just Gatlin was a little faster.

“Su Bingtian must have scored 10 seconds!”

This is what Jiang Ming was thinking. How different could he be from this group of people?

Su Bingtian thought so too. He stood with Guy, who was a head taller than him, and waited for the result while panting.

The first to come out was the second place, Gatlin, with 9 seconds!

3rd place.
At this time, the big screen showed a frame-by-frame close-up. Su Bingtian’s head was just a little behind Guy, and Guy won the bronze medal with a time of 9 seconds.

But at this moment, Su Bingtian had already fallen directly onto the plastic track, with a hoarse roar bursting out of his throat!!!

The bronze medal doesn’t matter because it means he ran under 10 seconds!
Still a big run in!
The scarlet numbers on the timer lit up the night sky: 9.83!!!

“Fourth place! The first yellow man to break through the 10-second seal!!!”

“Su Bingtian is fourth!!! God Su is awesome!!!”

“The Chinese shine in the strongest 9-meter race in history, while Bolt’s teammate Blake finished fifth at 85 seconds!”

“Famous athlete Powell was injured midway through the race, and is the last one, 11 seconds!!!”

The ESPN commentator almost cursed:
“Bolt is still as strong as ever, but I want to give the applause to Su this time!!! He’s so small, but he almost stood on the podium!!”

Guangdong TV, far away in China, invited Su Bingtian’s family members to watch the show:
“Open the family tree separately! It must be opened separately!!” (End of this chapter)
