Turn the time back a few minutes, media complex area.

Before the start of the 400-meter race, the commentary seats from all over the world, including Huaxia, were already busy.

The on-site commentary sent by the US team was also chatting with the guests about the topic of the game.

"The race is about to begin...Michael, we all know that after you won the men's 88m and 200m championships in the 400 World Championships, until you retired, you have been dominating the 400m field, in the middle and short distance events You are a well-deserved king. You have come to the scene in every competition recently, and we want to know, what do you think of the men's 400m final?"

"I have been paying attention to the 400-meter field. I also hope that more people will challenge my record. But it is a pity that in recent years, the international track and field world, including us in the United States, has experienced a lot of competition in the 400-meter event. The overall development is not satisfactory! But this time the contestants gave me some hope..."

In the guest commentary seat, a dark and strong black man spoke at a gentle speed, and began to comment on the 400-meter situation following the host's words.

He is none other than the legendary American flying man known as Forrest Gump. In his era, he was the absolute king of the 200-meter and 400-meter events.His 200-meter and 400-meter records are still unbroken.

In the era of athletes, he was a "dominant" dictator. After retiring, he continued to engage in sports work, physical education, training, and public welfare, during which he appeared in international competitions many times.In his words, he wants more attention on talent who can further develop the projects he loves.

He also came to the Olympic Games this time. After the domestic TV stations found out about it, they specially invited him to participate in the commentary as a guest commentator.

"The eight contestants in this competition are all the top 8-meter athletes in the world. Jamaica has absorbed many advanced training concepts from the United States in recent years, and has developed rapidly in the sprint event. This final is the same as ours in the United States." , all three contestants entered the finals. This is very rare...

What's more rare, I saw a Huaxia player, and I watched his semi-final video, this is a very strong player, he has a good technical level and speed and rhythm control.The only shortcoming is in the comprehensive physique, and I think there is a lot of room for improvement in this regard...

I've been doing athlete training lately and I believe that every athlete, regardless of their age or race, can improve their level of athletic performance through a correct and effective training program...”

The American commentator echoed a few words from time to time. When Johnson talked about the training, he smiled secretly, which was a bit suspected of advertising for himself.However, when he was invited to come over, there was already some tacit agreement on these matters, so he didn't say anything.

"Well, in this track and field sprint competition, the performance of the Huaxia people is indeed good. In the case of different innate physiques, they can achieve the current performance. As you said, they may have improved their level through some correct and effective training. .

In the [-]-meter race, the two of them entered the final, and their athlete Zhao also won the silver medal, which is really rare.So do you think he has any hope of winning a medal in this game? ? "The narrator continued to ask.

"There is still hope for a medal, but it is still quite difficult to break through the encirclement of the three American players. It depends on the performance on the spot!"

"Michael, tell us about our American players, can you comment for our audience?"

At this time, the live broadcast screen has reached the stage where the players are about to take their positions. Several American players on the Michael Johnson field finally fixed their eyes on the two players with different skin colors in the adjacent lane.

After a short pause, he finally said slowly, "In my opinion, Derek Blue and Otis Harris both have the strength to attack the championship. Personally, I am most optimistic about Jeremy Variner. His strength is very strong, and most importantly, he has great potential. With more experience in the game, and through reasonable training, his performance should be greatly improved in the future..."

After a few words, Johnson seemed to take his training naturally again, and the American commentator was also very helpless.But since it is for others to comment, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the current and future training and improvement directions.

Johnson didn't try to guess what the commentator was thinking. Originally, he came to do this commentary not just for the tens of thousands of appearance fees he paid.What he wanted was to observe more of the current sprinters in the world. These were all his potential customers. Of course, why not do an advertisement by the way.

The few people he mainly looked at this time, he also had his eye on in the domestic trials, and after some communication, the other party was also interested.After I came here, I didn't feel disappointed or disappointed all the way. The performance was quite satisfactory.

What makes him a little regretful is that the Huaxia people let him down.In fact, he already had his heart in the World Championships last year. He is not a lot of people who are closed in the country and still fix China in the impression of decades ago.Ever since the tall basketball player broke into the United States, anyone who is a little more open has a better understanding of Huaxia.

Huaxia's economy has risen, and it is rich!But some areas are still lagging behind, such as sports and track and field, so this is a big market.

In last year's World Championships, Huaxia won a gold medal in the 200m and 4*100m relay.As a professional, he could see that Huaxia people were running to the limit, and such results were really not very competitive in the competition.It just seemed that the other party was too closed. He contacted people in the other party's sports system intentionally or unintentionally, but the results were not ideal.

He is not disappointed either, he thinks that Huaxia is still in the excitement of winning the championship, and may already be blindly optimistic.If there is a turning point of failure with a big gap, then his chance has come.For example, this Olympic Games, he thinks it is a good opportunity to give setbacks.

It's just that he didn't expect that Huaxia's performance made him "disappointed", and what he saw, Huaxia people seemed to have a set of development concepts that fit their own.This is the biggest regret!

Fortunately, Wariner is still there, and there are one or two prominent signs, and the development is still promising.

"...I would like to focus on Jeremy Variner. This year is his first year in professional sports. It is very difficult for us in the United States to step into a stage like the Olympics. His performance has been very stable. , Judging from his personal skills and physical fitness, he has reached the forefront of the current world..."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Johnson deliberately introduced Variner again.

"Oh?! Michael, it seems that you are very optimistic about this young player, but it seems that he is a little nervous now..."

"It's true that I'm a little nervous. In fact, it's normal. When I was in the 88 World Championships, I was also very nervous. However, in big scenes, nervousness can often make athletes perform better, especially young athletes."

"Then do you think we have a chance to win the top three this time?" The commentary raised a question that many Americans care about.

Johnson pondered a little longer this time, and it was difficult to answer this topic. In his true opinion, the Huaxia people still have a great chance of winning the medal.After all, this is a live broadcast for the whole of the United States. In the end, he only used a few words: "The opportunity is still great, and the potential threat cannot be said to be non-existent. For example, the Huaxia people, in the end, it depends on the performance on the spot..."

"Okay, thank you Michael for your wonderful comments. Now please pay attention to the arena again. The players are already in place..."

The topic was almost discussed, and the commentator began to introduce the game.At this time, on the field, eight players had already squatted on the running blocks, and the competition was about to start.

At this time, Michael Johnson's expression also became serious. He was a professional athlete, and now he is a training coach, businessman, and agent. He needs to pay more attention to his goals and potential goals.

Judging from his more than ten years of professional competition experience, he can see that the main players are in very good condition this time. It can be said that they can run out of their current strength without any accidents.This also raised expectations for the outcome of the game.

The starter's preparatory sound sounded, Michael Johnson put aside those scattered thoughts, and instantly concentrated. Gunshots sounded all over his body, and the voice of the commentator, he also assisted in the start of the game commentary.

"...Jeremy got off to a good start, had a good pace of acceleration, and he was running in...uh...Hua Xialin. Chasing...the four-way Huaxia players are still leading...catch up...cross the line..."

There was a sudden pause, and countless American viewers who were watching in front of the TV at this moment suddenly felt that the voice of the commentary was stuck.

Michael Johnson has been coordinating with the explanation. At this time, his voice suddenly got stuck in his throat, and his eyes were wide open. It can be said that from the beginning, he spent it in surprise. At this time, it turned out that he never I can't explain it anymore.

People always commented that his running posture was not good-looking, and even often used his running posture to belittle him. In the early years, some people nicknamed him "Duck", but he has always been calm and didn't care.

This is because of the body, and there are also reasons for habit. No matter how unreasonable people say, it is just about the running posture. He has always been very strict in the real technical rhythm.

But this time, what he saw, this is the real unreasonable, in this era, there is no 400-meter run like this.After countless verifications, this running method is not the most efficient way.It's impossible to say that Chinese people don't understand. The run in the semifinals was very good.

This is not a big deal, what surprised him even more was the unreasonable thing, that even in this way, he could still achieve high efficiency.

"The winner is Lin from China... Yes, the name of the Chinese, the surname comes first, his name is Lin-mu. He led the way and maintained his lead at the last moment, defeating our American Player Jeremy Wariner had a time of 44 seconds, which is really good. If I remember correctly, this is the second best time in the world this year, and it is also a new record in Asia. The original record is also the lin- mu kept..."

After all, it was a professional commentary. During this live broadcast, even though he was surprised, he still stabilized his emotions and continued to explain.

After a few words, he found Michael Johnson, and he was eager to hear what Johnson would say.

"Michael, this Chinese player won the championship. Do you have anything to say? You know, we don't know much about him. It should be his first time to participate in an international competition. We can see the game in all his files. There is very little information, his running style, his results..."

Michael Johnson still couldn't figure it out, but when the commentator asked a question, he still answered the question first.

"This... Let's not talk about the result, it's really not bad, let's talk about his running style. His running style is the way we ran the 400-meter sprint a long time ago, which makes me a little unbelievable..."

"...But one thing is very important. This Hua Xialin is an athlete with excellent strength and will. As I said before, athletes need to learn more competition experience, which is also a very important part of strength. For example, this time, Variner was thrown out of rhythm because of his lack of experience, otherwise...

As for this Huaxia Lin, he is indeed a very experienced player, although the running style he uses is not the same as his previous running style, it can be said to be a very extreme running style.But he still completed the game with his experience, and we have all seen the results.

Moreover, what I value more is the will held by this Lin, the will to fight to the limit and do everything!From the situation of the Chinese sprinters I have observed, they seem to have this will...

The mission of more than 300 meters ran wildly, and the last 6 or 7 meters were completely dragged by the will to run. It is also because of this that he defeated our American players. It is not so much the skill and level, but the victory of will... Many of our American players lack such spirit and will..."

Speaking of this, Johnson noticed that his commentator partner was winking, and he knew that he had said a little too much.

His voice paused, and then he changed the subject: "Besides, I want to share some news here. In fact, this Lin is not an unknown person. Everyone doesn't know him because he has participated in few international competitions. , the Olympic Games is the first time...

His own identity is actually a coach, his job is track and field coach, and he is a very good coach.I think many people may know that the 200-meter and [-]-meter champions at the World Championships last year.This time the [-]-meter runner-up, yes, you are right.Lin is their coach..."

For the needs of the program and his own needs, Johnson introduced the details of Lin Mu, and cooperated with the commentary to analyze the reasons for the defeat of the United States, and found many reasons.

The 400-meter race has ended, and a few minutes have passed. When the players leave the field and enter the next game, they are ready to start the next decathlon 400-meter commentary.

They were robbed of the gold medal in the United States. It is estimated that there will be some criticism and nonsense after returning home.Winning the top three in the 400-meter race failed, but at least the gold medal was in hand, but the [-]-meter race was too much of a failure!Including the commentary, including Johnson, it is completely conceivable that there will be another storm.

The wind and waves may even be more intense than last year's World Championships. After all, the situation in the Olympic Games is different.But these have nothing to do with Johnson, maybe he will stand up and criticize at that time, but he will not criticize athletes.

"Did you go back and get in touch with their track and field team again!?"

Michael Johnson couldn't help but come up with some ideas.
