just to make those dreams come true

Chapter 110 The World Championships Are Here

in front of the airport,
Lin Mu smiled and patted Zhao Lin. He obviously knew that this kid was a little nervous.

He didn't answer. Although he hasn't been here, he doesn't know much about the climate and current situation in Paris.But he has checked some.The precipitation and temperature in Paris are relatively stable throughout the year.There are very few sudden changes in the weather, and looking at the current situation, it is obvious that such severe weather is unlikely.

Lin Mu didn't speak, but Yu Weili on the side couldn't help but smiled and said, "Xiao Zhao, what are you worrying about? This place is 7 hours earlier than Yanjing, and of course it's still daytime. As for the rain, it might rain in Paris." , There are a lot in summer and autumn. But not recently, when we go out for a game or something, we don’t know it first and then get ready!

Finally, there are these houses. Every country has its own architectural style. You are running, and the runways are all 400-meter circles. It has nothing to do with these buildings! ?Fuck this mind! ?Get ready for your game! "

Zhao Lin touched his head in embarrassment, and laughed.A group of people, many people couldn't help laughing a few times.

In fact, there are many newcomers in this industry who are going abroad for the first time. They have just left the airport, the environment is unfamiliar, and the climate is different from that in China.It caused them to have some worries in various aspects, but they didn't express it, Zhao Lin was more evasive and said it first.

A small episode, a line of talking and laughing.It was a rare moment to dispel some of the tension before the competition.

After leaving the airport, we boarded the waiting bus and rushed to the athletes' camp.From this moment on, they will officially enter the rhythm of the game!

……

On August 8, Paris, France, Saint-Denis de France stadium.

As the main stadium of the track and field championship, the Stade de France gathered a large number of Parisians early on.

The Stade de France is the tenth largest stadium in the world and is extremely famous internationally.The World Cup, European Cup, European Champions Cup and other football leagues have staged many thrilling games in this stadium.

Since 1999, the Stade de France has been a stop of the IAAF Golden League, and since then it seems to have turned on the button of track and field.Since then, it has also often attracted a large number of track and field fans to watch the game.It's just that today, although there are many people.But the atmosphere is not very warm.

Because today is the first day, the competition before the opening ceremony is only the group AB competition of some field events.As for the previous men’s 20-kilometer race walking event.Because the distance is long and the main venue of the game is not here.It was obviously difficult to get the audience excited, and everyone's mood was obviously not high at this time.

The Huaxia track and field team came here just after noon today. Apart from participating in the opening ceremony, Luo Yi, Feng Yong and Yu Weili should pay more attention to today's upcoming competition.

Previously, in the men's 20-kilometer race that had ended, two Huaxia players had already lost, and their results were miserable, and what was even worse was the process!At this time, their hearts were still heavy.

On the first day of the game, I didn’t want to start the game wrong.As a result, they became even more looking forward to the first event in which the Chinese team had hopes of winning a medal after today's opening ceremony.

At 17:30 local time, the opening ceremony was followed by the women's 100-meter preliminaries and the women's heptathlon 800-meter preliminaries.These, China are not qualified athletes.

However, in the women's 19-meter race that will be held at 15:10000, Huaxia has Sun Yingjie and Xing Na participating.Obviously this is the focus of attention today, even in the eyes of most people in the team, it is also the focus of this World Championship!
Lin Mu also brought Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao with him. The young man was jet-lagged and in good physical condition. Obviously, he didn't need to squat in the camp to rest as the leaders said.

For the race walking loss they discussed and a series of reflections.Lin Mu didn't even interrupt, and he knew that this was just the beginning.If nothing else, tomorrow's women's race will be even worse!He didn't like race walking in his previous life, and it probably started from this time!
The strength and awareness of the athletes themselves, coupled with the gradually outdated technology and various external factors, made the once brilliant race walking event completely fall into the valley.

Lin Mu saw it, but he didn't participate in anything.This is a matter of consciousness. He is a sprint coach and he doesn't want to give others the impression that he is dictating.And he knew that it was useless for anyone to speak without experiencing some suffering.On the contrary, it can only be annoying!

Compared with these, Lin Mu is obviously more concerned about Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao's adaptation to the venue.Tomorrow is the [-]-meter preliminaries and semi-finals. The reason why we came here so early is to allow the two athletes to get used to the atmosphere and familiarize themselves with the field.

It's the first time to go abroad for a competition, the unfamiliar venue, and the expected large number of spectators, it is not comparable to the previous domestic competitions!
As time passed, Lin Mu gradually discovered that the figure of the five-star red flag appeared in certain positions on the field, including Lin Mu, when he saw the bright red flag flying, he couldn't help but feel a little trembling in his heart at that moment. move!
The Stade de France, where there are more than 3 people, is now much more noisy than before. Even so, Lin Mu can still vaguely hear the sound of the sound,

"Huaxia, come on!"

"Coach..." Zhao Lin's voice was a little trembling, and it was obvious that his mood was also agitated.I only called out coach, and I didn't know how to say the following words!
Following Lin Mu all the way on the track, Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao obviously saw those figures and heard those voices.

That kind of support and shouting from the bottom of my heart may have been seen in the past or on TV.There might even be some people who didn't understand it at the time!

But when they themselves are really abroad, in this strange stadium.Hear the familiar Chinese and those figures waving red flags.Including Lin Mu, there has never been such a strong feeling for a moment!

Country, nationality, honor, faith, all emotions may burst out in a roar!

"Coach..." Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao called softly almost at the same time.

Trying to calm down.Lin Mu smiled softly!
He raised his head, looked around the stands, and finally turned towards the place where the red was flying.Looking from a distance, under the flag, the faces of people are clearly difficult to see.But Lin Mu knew that this was not important!
Because, including them, at this moment, no matter their age, appearance, personality, or identity, they all have one and only one common name—Huaxia!
He raised his hand, pointed at that side, and waved from a distance, Yang Zuyao and Zhao Lin also waved their hands together!
In an instant, perhaps because of a response, a bigger wave of noise arose in the stands.

"Huaxia! Come on!"

"Huaxia! Must win!"

Just feeling the throbbing of the heart, suddenly someone patted his shoulder.

"Xiao Lin, do you feel it?!"

Yu Weili's voice reached Lin Mu's ears, with a slight tremor in his calm voice!
Looking back, Yu Weili was standing behind him, his eyes also looking at that place.Although he tried his best to hide his face, Lin Mu could still notice the slight strangeness.

"Do you know? I have been working in sports for so many years, starting as an athlete, until now I can hardly remember how many times I lead the team out to compete! But every time I hear and see these things, I still feel uneasy !"

Yu Weili smiled softly. His shaved head and round face obviously didn't look good.But Lin Mu could feel the sincerity from the heart!

"Director Yu, we sports people, as long as we have something in our hearts, we may never be peaceful for the rest of our lives!" Lin Mu said with a smile: "If there comes a day when you see all these things are indifferent, it will be sad! hehe!"

He patted Lin Mu's shoulder vigorously again, and then patted Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao beside him.Did not say a word.

Yu Weili felt at this moment, those so-called mobilization and motivation.It's better to drag people around such an occasion.Nothing could be more inspiring than this!
Lin Mu smiled and patted Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao, "Xiao Yang, Xiao Zhao. Let's compete tomorrow! Not for myself, not for me, and not for our track and field team, just for these people who shout loudly You can shout out that sound freely, Huaxia, come on!"

The two nodded fiercely. They had never been so looking forward to the game!
……

From indifference to loudness, to the end of the song, a night of silence, the Stade de France ushered in a new day.

At 8 am on August 24th, Paris time, the second match day of the World Championships.

Stade de France.

The atmosphere in the rest area where the team leader and coach of the Huaxia Athletics Team was located was very depressing.

After the men's walk failed yesterday, the men's shot put failed, and in other competitions held, China was not qualified at all.Fortunately, Sun Yingjie finished third in the women's [-]-meter race, and a bronze medal gave the entire delegation a little bit of a lift.The tragedy of opening the door to someone else was avoided!
but……

Today, the women's 20-kilometer race walking event that just ended more than an hour ago has brought the slightly relaxed atmosphere to the bottom again.

Many people in the circle believe that race walking is the only event that has the hope of winning gold medals in the 2004 and 2008 Olympic Games among all the events in Huaxia Athletics.However, at the World Athletics Championships in Paris, the best result of the men's and women's 20-kilometer race walk in the first two days was only the 13th place in the women's event.

The results are not satisfactory, but what is even more worrying is that in these two events, the players were punished for fouls many times, and there were 20 women's 3km race walkers, and even two of them were sent off.The only surviving player in the later stage seemed to be tied up, and in the end he barely finished the whole journey.How can the grades be good! ?
Such a tragic loss is enough to give enough reflection to the leaders and project coaches of the track and field team.There are many reasons. After analyzing and analyzing, Lin Mu generally agrees.But wanting to change doesn’t happen overnight!

After the veterans of race walking have retired one after another, the rookies have not yet matured.These new players have not participated in many international competitions, and they are all new faces in the eyes of international referees, so they pay special attention to and picky about their technical movements.This is one of them.

The fouls caused by race walking are mainly vacated, but what about the players in Huaxia?
Outdated and outdated techniques, small pelvic movements and high-frequency quick steps can easily give the referee the impression of being vacant.If you are an old man or a famous player, the international referees may be a little more lenient.But these current Chinese athletes are obviously not.

This sounds like a human problem, but Lin Mu will only look for problems on his own, because this is actually a technical problem.In Lin Mu's view, the biggest culprit is that the coaches did not correct the athletes' foul actions strictly enough during training.

Moreover, in domestic competitions, their own referees' judgment standards are relatively loose, which makes these novices get used to this rhythm. As a result, they suffered a lot in the World Series.

It's time for a revolution, Lin Mu silently gave the attributive word in his heart.

The oppressive atmosphere made people very uncomfortable, fearing that it would affect Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao's emotions, Lin Mu rushed them to warm up early!

本次世锦赛总共时间是9天，从8月23日开始到8月31日（巴黎时间），林幕所关心的也只是男子100米和200米的比赛。

8月24日，上午10点30分开始第一轮男子100米的预赛，18点进行第二轮的复赛。

On August 8th, the semi-finals will be held at 25:18, and the final round will be held at 21:[-].

The schedule is relatively easy, except that the time difference between the semi-finals and the final is short, but for Zhao Lin and Yang Zuyao, who have no concurrent pressure, the impact of 3 hours is not unacceptable.

Yang Zuyao's 200-meter preliminaries will have to wait until the 28th. Although it is said to be a part-time event, it is obviously not affected much after a few days.

As for whether he can make it to the finals, Lin Mu doesn't want to think about it now. Lin Mu has already seen the players' schedules and groupings. Due to injuries, Green, who has been in poor form recently, is also in poor form due to off-court incidents. Poor Montgomery. (And Lin Mu secretly thought in his heart, if there were no forbidden items, Montgomery could only be at his current level.)
Except for these two who often run under 10 seconds, the rest of the players, either old or new, can only run under 10 seconds. The difference is really quite big.Therefore, Lin Mu still had some ideas!
At 10:30 in the morning, the first round of the men's [-]m preliminaries officially started.

In the men's 100m preliminaries, a total of 63 athletes participated and were divided into 8 preliminaries, one of which consisted of 7 athletes.The preliminaries were randomly assigned to groups. Yang Zuyao was in the third group of the preliminaries, and Zhao Lin was in the sixth group.

check-in area,

Yang Zuyao is already doing the final warm-up, some simple activities, and then put on his coat again.The competition of the first two groups is over!He has been waiting for the staff to come and lead him out of the game.

"After the game, remember to put on your coat and come out straight away. If someone interviews a reporter, it doesn't matter which reporter, just say that you don't understand the language, just ignore it!"

This was what Yu Weili told before the game because he was afraid that Lin Mu would not have experience in foreign competitions.I came here from a region of more than 30 degrees a few days ago, and the temperature here is at noon, and the temperature is only more than 20 degrees, and it is still daytime.If it is night, it may drop to more than 10 degrees.Obviously, they are all afraid that such a temperature change will affect their bodies unnecessarily!
Yang Zuyao and Zhao Lin didn't feel any discomfort with the temperature, but they were more or less vigilant in their hearts. After warming up, their bodies became hot, especially after the game. If they cooled down and didn't keep warm properly, they might catch a cold .They also don't want to regret this World Championship because of these unexpected factors.

The staff came to lead the people, and when Yang Zu Yaozu walked out of the tunnel, he was startled by bursts of warm applause and cheers.He raised his head and looked around. He noticed that there were already many spectators in the auditorium. He could only feel the crowds. He could even see some people with their naked bodies reflected in various patterns, and their faces turned red. , shouting loudly.

The [-] meters is the most exciting event in track and field competitions at any time, even though it is only the preliminaries at this time.

Shouting, shouting, shouting, cheering, one after another, in the Stade de France, after the two group matches, the atmosphere of the audience rose!
