Chapter 128 The Ninth Circuit
This is a national competition. Today there are athletes from all provinces on the women's 100-meter hurdles track.
However, Shanghai, as the host, obviously aimed all its propaganda at the "Shanghai Twins".
The local media naturally promotes local athletes more, which is understandable.
What's more, Bai Miao and Dong Jiajia have dominated the short track events for three or four years, and they are basically the confirmed "champions and runners-up".
In fact, apart from Xie Bingran, all the contestants on the nine tracks on the scene today have been defeated by the "Shanghai and City Twins" in past competitions of all sizes...
At this moment, the big screen above the stands was playing the promotional video and pre-match interview produced by the Five-Star Sports Channel for the "Shanghai Twins".
The audience looked up and cheered again.
"I am Bai Miao. There is no word 'admit defeat' in my dictionary!
On the track, if you encounter strength, you will become stronger! ”
"I am Dong Jiajia. If you are also on the 100-meter hurdles track...
Then it is your misfortune to be born in the same era as me. ”
……
In the promotional video, the two were full of "dominance" and harsh words before the game, which echoed throughout the venue.
The enthusiasm of the audience was instantly ignited, cheers were heard, and cheering banners were raised high and waved.
Xu Chen couldn't help but smile awkwardly when he heard those two "Second Two" harsh words before the game.
But the two groups of students from Tonghai University and Huahai Normal University around him were extremely excited, and their cheers were even more tense than the atmosphere on the track.
……
The sky was clear, but there was no blazing sun.
A few huge, thick white clouds hid the big sun behind them, contributing to a comfortable and suitable weather today.
There seemed to be a slight breeze in the field, but Xu Chen couldn't tell whether it was a tailwind or a headwind for the players...
A loud and rapid whistle came from the track, interrupting the commotion.
At the same time, the players who were warming up also turned and walked towards the starting line.
Referees are already standing at the starting line, halfway through the track, and at the finish line.
The cameras and cameras of various media outlets are already in place. Some are focused on the nine runners on the starting line, while others are already on standby at the finish line.
"National Youth Track and Field Championships, women's 100-meter hurdles final..."
"Every player is ready, every coach and referee is ready..."
At this moment, slightly suddenly, the game is about to officially begin.
The entire audience fell silent instantly.
All nine players are already on the track.
The "Shanghai Twin Stars" stand in the fourth and fifth lanes in the middle.
Xie Bingran, who participated in the national competition for the first time, was assigned to the ninth lane on the side.
She was wearing an ice blue tank top and black shorts, standing on the edge of the runway with an indifferent expression.
Brother Bing stood casually with his hands on his hips.
She lowered her head slightly, staring at the dark red track beneath her feet. The short hair on her forehead obscured her delicate and gloomy eyebrows.
Xu Chen couldn't help but remember that when she first pulled Brother Bing onto the track in the playground of No. 1 Middle School, she was also standing on the edge of the track...
A photographer came to the starting line with a camera on his shoulder, and the footage immediately appeared on the big screen.
"National Youth Track and Field Championships, women's 100-meter hurdles final..."
"The first one is from Sichuan Province, Huang Ru!"
"The second one is from Hunan Province, Zhao Xue!"
……
Following the host's introduction, the corresponding player's picture also appeared on the big screen. They waved to the audience and received bursts of applause from the stands.
Although most of the audience came to see Bai Miao and Dong Jiajia, players from other provinces and regions also showed due courtesy and enthusiasm.
"The fourth route is from Shanghai, Bai Miao!"
When Bai Miao's confident smiling face appeared on the big screen, it immediately attracted bursts of cheers and applause.
The Tonghai University team beside Xu Chen held banners high and shouted cheering slogans again.
At this time, the host from the Five-Star Sports Channel actually added an extra paragraph of introduction.
"Bai Miao, 19 years old from Tonghai University in Shanghai... The best track time in history is 13.72 seconds!
Champion of the National Middle School Games, runner-up of the National University Games, champion of the National Middle School Track and Field Championships..."
There was thunderous applause, and in a close-up shot on the big screen, Bai Miao greeted the audience in the stands.
"The fifth path is from Shanghai, Dong Jiajia!"
Perhaps because of Bai Miao's previous formation, Dong Jiajia's fans were applauding even harder at this moment.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Xu Chen was two rows apart and couldn't help but reach out and cover his left ear...
"Dong Jiajia from Huahai Normal University in Shanghai has the best track time in history of 13.71 seconds!
National Middle School Games Champion, National University Games Champion, National Middle School Track and Field Championships Runner-up..."
There was a commotion, and the cheering teams of Bai Miao and Dong Jiajia were at war with each other again, competing for momentum.
"The sixth path is from Guangdong Province, Fan Jiaxin!"
"The seventh path is from the capital, Li Xia!"
"The eighth path is from Fujian Province, Lin Yawen!"
"The Ninth Path, from Wen Province, Xie Bingran!"
……
With slightly sparse applause, Brother Bing's face finally appeared on the big screen.
Facing the camera, she raised her head slightly and raised her right hand slightly...
His expression was cold, and he didn't show a smile to please anyone.
Xu Chen looked up at Xie Bingran on the big screen, thinking that during the period after her training, her body had become "tighter and stronger" and her facial contours were clearer and more beautiful...
And among the group of students behind them, there were also some comments:
"This girl with short hair from Jiudao is quite beautiful!"
"This type of girl is really rare..."
But a certain senior sister on the side suddenly said angrily:
"What are you looking at?! I'm here to cheer for Bai Miao today!"
Xu Chen remained silent, but laughed in his heart.
However, Xie Bingran's close-up only stayed on the big screen for a few seconds...
The screen quickly moved to a distant camera position, overlooking the entire track, neat rows of white hurdles, and nine runners at the starting line.
From the loudspeaker, the voice of the Five Star Sports host came again.
He was the host at the scene, and the scene was also broadcast live on the Five-Star Sports Channel.
"National Youth Track and Field Championships, women's 100-meter hurdles record, 13.51 seconds.
The ‘Shanghai Twin Stars’ Bai Miao and Dong Jiajia have already approached this record with their historical results.
And today, do they have a chance to both break this record? ……
The championship battle begins immediately!
The excitement is all in Five Star Sports! ”
