Chapter 1193 We are the champions (first update, please subscribe)
At the Olympics, some people see business opportunities, but more people focus on the competition. In fact, for most ordinary people , all they focus on is what is in front of them.
Among all the competitions, the ones with the largest number of spectators are probably marathons. After all... they don't require tickets.
No matter in any era, free prostitution is always the most delicious.
On the eighth day of the event, the marathon of the 17th Summer Olympics finally started.
Every section of the road was crowded with spectators. The protagonist of today's competition was Yang Wu, who was Nanyang's first Olympic champion.
As a rickshaw driver, he has won three gold medals in Helsinki and Melbourne, but in the previous 10,000-meter race, he failed and only won a bronze medal.
But even so, this former "Asian Flying Man" is still a hero in the hearts of Nanyang people. Whenever he appears, people always cheer and shout his name.
"Flying man, flying man..."
Listening to the shouts around him, Yang Wu just ran unhurriedly. As an old athlete, he could feel his speed. It is on a downward trend, and because of this, he chose long-distance running in this Olympics.
Endurance became his only reliance.
After all, for those European and American athletes, their endurance comes from training, while Yang Wu's endurance comes from survival.
Back then, when he was in Shanghai, Yang Wu ran barefoot on the streets of Shanghai every day. At that time, he had to pull a cart with a person sitting behind the cart. This happens every day, day and night.
Now, it’s just a matter of changing the track.
After 30 kilometers, Yang Wu looked at the time and began to analyze his current situation.
If we proceed at the current pace, the subsequent time should be able to exceed the Asian marathon record.
But, do you just want Asian records?
So, if you want to surpass them, you must finish at a faster pace from behind, or even faster than their pace.
Making up his mind, Yang Wu did not rush for a moment, but ran towards the supply station.
While supplying this time, he just picked up a bottle of bottled water - ice spring mineral water, produced from the "Holy Mountain". Although its scientific name is "Widow Mountain", everyone still likes to call it It is a "sacred mountain".
Because it sounds good.
Holding bottled water, Yang Wu did not lament the "black technology" of plastic bottles like others.
This modern, even sci-fi, plastic bottle is itself the "star" of the Olympic Games. I don't know how many foreign tourists and athletes were surprised by it. This disposable plastic bottle It even made the front pages of some newspapers.
Of course, it’s only the foreigners who feel emotional, and the Nanyang people don’t feel emotional at all. After all, these products have already appeared around them.
After replenishing supplies, Yang Wu took a few glasses of water from the water station and poured it on his head, then took a few sponges to wipe his body, and then continued to accelerate forward.
When Yang Wu accelerated, the host in the TV station's live room also saw him accelerating and immediately explained.
“Now Yang Wu is starting to accelerate. As a veteran who has participated in three Olympic Games, although he failed to achieve good results in this competition due to his age, he has also Can..."
Suddenly, the commentator shouted excitedly.
"He has passed, Yang Wu has surpassed the second group and is catching up with the first group!"
In fact, no one paid attention to what the commentator was saying. People only paid attention to the game. When people on the roadside saw Yang Wu, they would always shout his name. Cheers for him.
"You should be able to go a little faster, but you can't go any faster..."
After passing the second group, Yang Wu felt that he still had energy left and could finish the rest of the distance at a faster speed. . So, after some careful consideration, he decided to speed up.
After making up his mind, he increased the length of his steps and accelerated the pace of his steps. At this time, the pair of "Red Rabbit" running shoes on his feet not only gave him excellent cushioning, but every step seemed to be assisted, making it easier for him to lift his legs and step forward. These are worth hundreds of thousands. The help brought by black technology.
After accelerating, General Yang's speed increased to a level far exceeding that of others. The fast running also caused the hot wind to constantly hit his face, but he did not have any expression. At this time, his expression was serious and his eyes were firm.
At this time, Yang Wu was thinking very simply, that is, he wanted to make a final match for himself today.
This is destined to be his last time participating in the Olympics.
It ends with a marathon, perhaps, it is also a good ending.
Yang Wu’s acceleration was also noticed by the host. He said to the audience:
“At around 32 kilometers, we can clearly feel Yang Wu’s acceleration. But I don’t know how fast he increased his speed. What is certain is that he is closing the distance with the first group.”
Time passed quickly, as if in an instant, Yang Wu caught up. In the first group, however, he did not stop, but continued to run forward. Since accelerating at 32 kilometers, Yang Wu has maintained a speed higher than others. Even after catching up, he didn't stop.
The price Yang Wu paid for this was the rapid consumption of physical strength and the rapidly rising heartbeat.
After the previous acceleration, Yang Wu felt very tired and even had the idea of lowering down.
But Yang Wu knew very well that if it really dropped, it would probably drop directly to the bottom. The previous pursuit may also fall short.
So, he can't slow down at all now. No matter how tired he is, he can't choose to slow down. He has to grit his teeth and persevere. Just like participating in the rickshaw race in Shanghai, I just gritted my teeth and persevered.
Yang Wu made up his mind and started running. Now he was in the first group, with only five people in front of him.
Just surpass them!
At this time, the track had entered the urban area, and there were more spectators around the road. When some spectators saw Yang Wu, they immediately burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm.
"Flying man, come on!"
"Flying man, come on..."
Amidst the cheers, Yang Wu continued to charge towards the championship. At this moment, he had no other thoughts except one - to win!
Want to win!
Bring an end to your life!
In this way, in the last leg of this marathon, the game became a race to catch up with each other, and neither of them was willing to let the other surpass themselves.
At this time, the competition is not only about endurance, but also about will!
After more than two selectors, there were only two people left in front of Yang Wu.
Abdeselam from Morocco and McGee from New Zealand, they seemed to feel the threat behind them and accelerated one after another, but Yang Wu just bit them tightly, walking. Pressing step by step.
At this time, everyone felt that the competition had reached a fever pitch, and the photographer also focused his lens on the three leaders. At this moment, everyone was thinking about Yang. Come on Wu, people are shouting and looking forward to it.
Looking forward to Yang Wu’s victory and a wonderful curtain call performance.
In the face of people’s cheers, Yang Wu seemed very calm in his heart. No matter he wins or loses, he will complete his curtain call performance today,
The camera of the live TV broadcast has been locked on Yang Wu and never left it for a moment.
He didn't even cut off the time that was supposed to be used for advertising. Instead, he chose not to play ads, and kept watching Yang Wu run towards the finish line step by step.
At this time, the director also wanted to record the entire process of Yang Wu's last game without missing a moment.
And Yang Wu did not disappoint them. He slowly caught up with New Zealand's McGee, and then kept parallel with him.
As time goes by, people are more certain that they are about to witness a new history today.
Because Yang Wu has surpassed McGee.
When Yang Wu surpassed McGee, bursts of cheers rang out on both sides of the competition road. The spectators on both sides of the road kept cheering for Yang Wu.
Their cheers continued to reach Yang Wu’s ears. Especially in the last 5 kilometers, when we have reached the downtown area, the situation becomes more and more lively.
The roadside was crowded with people. At first, people only paid attention to Yang Wu himself. They were looking forward to a wonderful retirement game, but now everyone can see that Yang Wu will not only present them with a wonderful game, and possibly win.
The people around were all shouting for their heroes.
Whether they can win the game or not, it doesn't matter. What matters is that Yang Wu is their hero!
In such an atmosphere, Yang Wu seemed to feel an endless stream of energy flowing towards him.
I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but Yang Wu seemed to feel more and more relaxed. Even the elasticity of the "Red Rabbit" on his feet seemed to be better, making it easier for him to stand on his feet. In this way, he moved his legs and strode forward. In the last leg of the game, It was like he was not participating in a marathon, he seemed to be back in Helsinki again, back on the track he was familiar with.
As he ran, the painful expression on his face slowly disappeared, replaced by a slight smile.
The body seemed to become lighter. The inexplicable changes made Yang Wu feel happy. The already exhausted body was once again full of vitality, and his steps became lighter and lighter.
Under such a feeling, Yang Wu accelerated his progress again. When he and Abdesalam ran into the Olympic Stadium one after another, the audience in the stadium couldn't help but exclaimed again when they saw this situation. They didn't expect that Yang Wu could still rush through at this time. Get up.
But this surprise only lasted for a short time. Just a few seconds later, the surrounding audience came back to their senses.
At this time, they all shouted excitedly towards Yang Wu.
Maybe they were so excited that they couldn't even speak a complete sentence clearly, but no one cared at this time. Since they couldn't speak, just shout loudly Well, now they are no longer expressing their feelings, but venting!
All of a sudden, roars like "Ah" and "Ah" could be heard endlessly, and people clapped their hands vigorously. In the last lap of the stadium, only Yang Wu and Abdeselam were left. , they went one behind the other, and finally kept pace with each other.
At this time, everyone stood up, cheering and cheering for Yang Wu.
Finally, when Yang Wu crossed the finish line in first place, half a length ahead of Abdesalam, the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak again, with people cheering and shouting.
At this time, people had already stood up excitedly. Amid the applause and shouts of the people, Yang Wu seemed very calm.
He glanced at the time, 2:15:40.1, and where was his opponent? Just one second behind him.
However, this is not important. What is important is...he won!
Winning this game in my own country...
