Chapter 90 Breaking the Asian Record Again (Seeking a Monthly Pass(1/2)

There were tigers in front and hungry wolves in the back. The plan formulated before the game was not realized at all. At this time, Takato Yoshioka was a little discouraged.

However, what made Yoshioka Ryude even more desperate was that his physical fitness began to decline.

This is the sequelae of the previous forced speedup.

In fact, Takato Yoshioka is a very good athlete in the second half. In the previous Far East Games, Takato Yoshioka performed very well in the second half. This talent is extremely rare among Asian athletes. This is also where Takato Yoshioka is stronger than Liu Changchun. Liu Changchun will be weak after running to the end, but Takato Yoshioka will not.

However, in today's game, Yoshioka Ryude forced his speed to catch up with Chen Qiang in the early stage, which consumed more physical energy, so he also felt weak after successors.

Takato Yoshioka could feel that his physical strength could not maintain this high-speed running, and his legs were already feeling tired. Although his mind was still sending instructions for acceleration, his body had begun to lose control. He tried hard to take bigger steps and faster pace, but these could only be thought about, and he really couldn't be faster.

"No, I don't want to lose, I want to win!" The strong desire to win occupied Ryude Yoshioka's heart. He relied on his strong willpower to maintain his speed and strive to prevent himself from being pulled too far by Chen Qiang.

Among athletes, there are always some athletes with very strong willpower. Their perseverance and their tenacious struggle often make them surpass the limits of their physiology and make their grades reach a higher level.

The current Takatoshi Yoshioka is basically out of this state. His physical energy has been exhausted, and now he is persisting with his willpower.

If this is a long-distance race, this persistence may have a very good effect. However, this is a sprint race after all. Even if the willpower can make the body persist, it cannot make him faster!

...

Nanbu Tadhipei has already caught up with him, and in one breath, he has already been alongside Takato Yoshioka.

He still maintained his sense of rhythm, running very stably like a machine.

Nanbu Tadhipei's expression could not see any turbulence, it was very natural and cold.

Nanbu Tadai is the world's top long jumper. Although he has a good sprint talent, he prefers long jump.

When he was young, in order to make himself jump further, Tadaehiro from Nanbu even observed frogs and monkeys to imitate the animals; he would go to the Sapporo department store to train because there were stairs there; in winter, he would use the tram tracks as his practice site, because in the winter of Hokkaido, there was no ice and snow on the tram tracks.

He really loves long jump. Compared with it, sprinting may be just a different embellishment in daily ordinary training.

So Tadaehide from Nanbu didn't have much passion when he ran. He came to participate in the competition just to fulfill the responsibilities of Japanese athletes, and what he had to do now was to do his best. Perhaps for him, as long as he tried his best, even if he lost the competition in the end, he would have fulfilled his responsibilities as a Japanese athlete.

Nanbu Tadhipe's running method that insists on his own pace also made him catch up with Takato Yoshioka who was exhausted, and even surpassed him in the next second. However, this running method could not catch up with Chen Qiang.

The finish line is getting closer and closer, and there is still a gap of more than half a meter between Zhongping and Chen Qiang in the south. Even Zhongping in the south can become faster, but he cannot overtake at the last moment.

The distance of half a meter is also very obvious to the naked eye. Unless Chen Qiang stops by himself, there is absolutely no possibility of Nanbu Zhongping following him.

Chen Qiang did not relax at all. He still maintained his original speed and rhythm and rushed towards the finish line.

The Japanese expatriates in the stands were still shouting, cheering for the two Japanese contestants, hoping for a miracle to happen.

Now, it really takes a miracle.

Unfortunately, miracles are not so easy to happen. If you hope for a miracle in your heart, then miracles will be everywhere.

Chen Qiang rushed to the finish line, and then pulled the long rope with his chest hitting the finish line. South Takahei also followed closely behind, followed by Yoshioka Ryude. The Korean Takesawa Takagi was almost one second behind before crossing the finish line.

Takezo Takagi had no presence throughout the game. After the start, he was in the last place, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger by the first three people. More importantly, no one around the North Koreans watching the game cheered him. Or they didn't know how to cheer him up.

Should you shout "Come on Takesa Takagi" or "Come on Park Daewoo?"

The former sounds like cheering for a Japanese, which should be what the Japanese should do.

The latter is cheering for a North Korean, but among the contestants, there seems to be no North Korean named "Park Dawu".

In this way, Takagi Takezawa also completed a "Kimota Goodwill" activity.

Takezawa Takagi took a deep breath. At this time, he felt that he was not an athlete who came to participate in the competition, but a clown.

"Is it very sad?" Takagi Takesawa asked himself, then shook his head silently.

"North Korea is gone, so every North Korean is sad, but at least I will live better than others!" Takesawa Takagi clenched his fists hard, then raised his head, trying to make himself look proud as much as possible to hide his inferiority complex.

...

After crossing the finish line, Nanbu Zhongping breathed a sigh of relief. Although he did not surpass Chen Qiang, he had tried his best, so he did not feel regretful.

"This Chen Qiang is really amazing. I think he is comparable to the top players in Europe and the United States. Moreover, he is so young, and there will still be room for improvement in the future. If such athletes appear in Asia, it may be difficult for Japanese athletes to make a difference in the 100-meter sprint event."

As a long jumper, Nanbu Chukai looks at the sport of 100-meter sprinting and athletes who run 100-meter sprinting at this time.

"Ryudo Yoshioka always wanted to avenge the Far East Games losing to Chen Qiang. This time he lost again, so he should feel very uncomfortable!" Nanbu Tadaehira said in his heart.

The two have been training together recently, and Nanbu Tadaehide also saw the efforts of Takahiro Yoshioka, so he planned to comfort this junior.

However, when Tadhipei from Nanbu turned around and looked at Ryudo Yoshioka, he saw Ryudo Yoshioka kneeling on the ground, supporting the ground with his hands, and breathing heavily.

Excessive physical energy consumption!

In the second half of the game, Takato Yoshioka's physical fitness could no longer keep up. He relied on his willpower to support him. Now that the game is over, Takato Yoshioka can no longer support him, so he still fell down.

This situation is not uncommon on the sports field. In tense games, excessive physical energy is consumed. Once the athlete's spirit is relaxed, the body will immediately react. For example, after South African athlete Van Nikek broke the 400-meter world record, he fainted from respiratory failure and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment without even attending the award ceremony.

In comparison, Takato Yoshioka at least had consciousness. He only needed a little rest to recover.

Yoshioka Ryude, who was kneeling on the ground, gasped heavily, and with a "splash", a drop of liquid landed on the ground and penetrated into the coal ash runway.

It's not sweat, but tears.

Yoshioka Ryude cried, and he could not stop tears from rolling down his eyes. Over the past few months, he has been training in a self-abuse way. The motivation for this training comes from defeating Chen Qiang's obsession.

Unfortunately, he still lost to Chen Qiang. Even though he had performed well and tried his best, he was still left behind by Chen Qiang.

At this time, Takato Yoshioka even hated his incompetence and hated that he could not be faster!

Chen Qiang had noticed the situation of Yoshioka Ryude. He also saw Yoshioka Ryude crying and felt the desire to win deep in Yoshioka Ryude's heart.

"If we leave the country, nation and ideology, athletes like Ryoto Yoshioka are also considered respectable opponents! Although we have a competitive relationship, I still hope that Ryoto Yoshioka can get out of the shadow of failure as soon as possible and cheer up again." Chen Qiang sighed in his heart.

He has watched many games in his previous life, and Chen Qiang has also seen them. Whenever this scene appears in front of Chen Qiang, he will inevitably feel some sympathy. Because he knows how hard the athletes’ training is, many people can persevere because they rely entirely on illusory dreams or a stubborn obsession.

Many times athletes actually know that their talents are limited and their level is limited. If they persist, they will not be able to achieve high achievements. It is better to change careers earlier, and at least they can get better protection in the future.

But they will still choose to persevere. Even if there is only a little hope, they will continue to be strong, just because they are athletes!

Chen Qiang saw the shadows of those "persistencers" in Ryude Yoshioka.

Perseverance, perseverance and strength are essential qualities for a successful athlete, but it also allows more ordinary athletes to not get the reward they want after their unknown efforts.

...

At this time, the referee finally counted the results of the contestants.

The North Korean Takeze Takagi still did not run into the 12-second mark. Even if he was here to serve as a foil, he was a little unqualified.

Yoshioka Ryude's score was 10.7 seconds, which was already tied with Chen Qiang's Asian record in the Far East Games.

When the referee announced the result, Chen Qiang felt nervous. Yoshioka Ryude was only third place, which had already tied the Asian record. So would he and Tadhipei of the South want to break the Asian record?

Chen Qiang thought again and again that this concept was wrong because it was the finish line he rushed through first. Even though Zhongping, the score of Zhongping in the South was faster than 10 seconds 7, when Zhongping in the South arrived at the finish line, Chen Qiang had already set a new Asian record, so Zhongping in the South could not be considered a breaking Asian record.

Sure enough, Tadaehide Minami scored 10 seconds 6, which was 0.1 seconds faster than Ryude Yoshioka.

But this is not a new Asian record, Chen Qiang's score is 10 seconds 5!

Not long ago, Canadian player Parcy Williams broke the world record of 10-meter sprint with a time of 10.3 at the British Empire Games held in Toronto. This is also the first non-American to break the 100-meter sprint record since the IAAF began to count the world record.

At this time, Chen Qiang was only 0.2 seconds away from the world record!

"I finally ran to 10 seconds 5!" A smile appeared on Chen Qiang's face. He was very satisfied with his results.

After the Far East Sports Games, he improved his grades by 0.2 seconds, and his progress was very fast. Of course, this progress mainly comes from the enhancement of physical fitness. The physical development makes him stronger. At least this wave of development is quite valuable, and Chen Qiang's grades will rise sharply.

"My body will continue to grow and develop, and my grades will continue to improve. 10 seconds 5 is not my end, but the world record is! In the future, I will definitely break the world record." Chen Qiang was full of confidence in himself.

"I am now a world-class 100-meter sprinter. Should I try other events, such as practicing 200-meter sprinter?"

Chen Qiang felt that his idea was very good. He entered the 100-meter sprint within 10 seconds and then improved his 0.1 second time. It is no longer a goal that can be achieved in a short period of time. Even if he had the scientific training of later generations, it would take a long time for athletes to improve at this level.

For Chen Qiang, he is almost at the limit of a 100-meter sprint, so why not try other sports.

What's more, most of the sprinters in this era are in three events: 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters. The more powerful athletes are, the more they have to play in multiple events. It is abnormal for Chen Qiang to run only one 100 meters.

"After returning to Tianjin, I will start practicing 200 meters!" Chen Qiang made up his mind.

...

After hearing the 10.6 seconds mark, a surprised expression appeared on Nanbu Tadaehide's face.

After all, Zhongping Nanbu is a long jumper. He also knows that the previous Asian record was 10.7 seconds set by Chen Qiang. After learning that he actually ran a result that surpassed the previous Asian record, Zhongping Nanbu felt a sense of surprise in his heart of unintentionally planting willows.

But then after hearing the 10.5 seconds, a hint of horror appeared on his face.

The 10-second 4 world record lasted for a full nine years, and it was not until August 1930 that it was upgraded to a level of 10-second 3 by Parcy Williams. The news that South Takahei just got was not long ago.

Pasey Williams participated in the 1928 Olympics. When he tied the Olympic record for the 100-meter sprint with a time of 10.6 seconds, and Tadhipei from the South was also on the scene.

So in Nanbu Tadaehime's perception, 10 seconds 5 is enough to win the Olympics!

"10 seconds 5, it's really hard, it's the world's top level!" Nanbu Tadhipei subconsciously looked at Takato Yoshioka, who was still gasping for breath, and the sympathy flashed in his eyes.

"Yoshioka-kun, Chen Qiang's score has reached 10.5 seconds. Perhaps you will never be his opponent in this life! Or, as long as Chen Qiang is here, it may be difficult for us in Japan to achieve success in the 100-meter sprint event!"

...

When Chen Qiang was the first to cross the finish line, the cheering Japanese audience in the stands stopped their voices instantly.

They are all Japanese expatriates. They come here to watch the competition to witness the strength of Japanese athletes, not to watch the failure of Japanese athletes.

In order to promote the racial superiority of the Yamato nation in North Korea, the Japanese carried out a large wave of publicity and stimulating before the game, vigorously praising Tadhiro and Yoshioka Ryude. These Japanese expatriates also believed in this kind of publicity. They believed Tadhiro and Yoshioka Ryude, especially in the morning, after watching the Korean game, the Japanese expatriates believed in this more.
