The Su God of the Reopening of the Sports Arena

Chapter 2287: Without a superstar's dominance, it means many heroes will rise.
Ah? ? ?
No, what did you just hear?
Aiming for a medal.

At this moment, an attack is launched.

Our goal.

Isn't the goal just to make it into the top eight?

Does that mean we shouldn't put any more pressure on young players after they reach the finals?

These words.

Wasn't that all something Sun Haiping said before the match?
How could it happen so suddenly?

Let's not talk about these staff members.

Xie Wenjun, the person involved.

Everyone is completely baffled.

Because the goals he received before the competition, as well as the goals for the entire winter training, were clearly defined—

It simply means making it to the finals.

Once you get to the finals, you can enjoy the competition and run however you want.

These words.

But these are all the truths.

That's what Sun Haiping always told him.

Medals?

How did it suddenly become this goal?

Xie Wenjun's confidence has indeed improved a lot this year through the Diamond League.

However, the last few Diamond League matches made him realize that once these renowned athletes started to increase their intensity and improve their performance...

Therefore, one's own advantages will still not be very obvious.

Or just say it directly.

It doesn't offer any advantages.

Given that they had no advantage whatsoever, they suddenly offered to let them compete for a medal.

Is this it?

That's a bit too abrupt.

"It's okay, just do your best. Take down one as many as you can, and I don't think you have no chance of doing it."

"Now, besides Richardson, Oliver, and Wilson, is there anyone left here whom you absolutely cannot beat?"

Xie Wenjun was taken aback.

"If it's not like you can't win at all, why do you feel like you have no chance?"

"It's not appropriate for you to think that way."

“Ah Jun”.

“If it’s not completely unwinnable, then there’s a chance. If it were you, Brother Xiang, you would definitely give it a try.”

"Opportunities are earned through hard work, and even for these three Americans..."

"Do you really have absolutely no chance? I don't think so."

"The overall level of hurdling has dropped now, and this year is the first year after the Olympics, so people won't focus all their energy on it."

"Have you forgotten what Su Shen said on Ersha Island before the competition started?"

"It's a zero-sum game. We didn't rest this year; instead, we continued to train extra. What was the purpose? Was it just to reach the finals? If we had the chance..."

"Have you ever thought about it?"

Sun Haiping is very reasonable in this regard.

He guided Xie Wenjun step by step.

"This could very well be your only chance in your life to win a medal."

"It's hard to say what will happen next or what kind of geniuses will emerge, but today the situation is very clear: several people who were guaranteed a medal have all been eliminated."

"If you don't even fight for such an opportunity."

"Then let's not argue about the rest."

"Opportunities don't come often in life, and you might only get one chance to seize one."

So, you choose for yourself.

"If you want to take a gamble, then I'll tell you about the tactical design I developed after talking with Su Shen."

"Mr. Su?"

Xie Wenjun did not expect Sun Haiping to say that.

I never expected him to mention Su Shen.

"Does President Su also think I have a chance?"

Xie Wenjun asked this question because, on the entire Ersha Island, no one knows the authority of God Su.

Sometimes he just says one sentence.

It's more effective than 100 self-comforting phrases.

Because of Su Shen.

I rarely make mistakes.

This includes the long jump.

He had expressed his optimism about it a long time ago.

Either it's a sudden breakout by a Russian athlete.

It broke the World Championship record.

Who told you that?

There's absolutely no chance.

In fact, he did win a silver medal, which was a major breakthrough, wasn't it?

Then.

Su Shen has faith in himself.

Yourself.

Xie Wenjun thought for a moment.

It gives me a lot of motivation.

He looked up suddenly.

"Okay, I'd like to give it a try, Master."

Do you really want to?

"real!"

"it is good."

That's exactly the attitude Sun Haiping wanted.

Otherwise, if you lack confidence and are forced to compete for medals, it's meaningless.

Because of the athlete's mental state.

This will be directly reflected in the technical status.

Therefore, athletes themselves need to have this mindset.

Otherwise, forcing someone will be ineffective.

However, such things are beyond Sun Haiping's expectations and it all depends on whether the athletes can withstand the pressure and whether they want to fight hard in this place.

Fortunately.

Xie Wenjun.

Your imagination needs to be powerful.

This look.

Sun Haiping had already nodded slightly.

“Su Shen also thinks you have a chance. He just told me that. I just finished this conversation with him, which is why I wanted to change the plan at the last minute.”

"He just affirmed my idea, so..."

"Let's revise the final competition plan."

"That is the goal."

"Competing for medals."

“Ah Jun”.

"If you can do that."

"You will be the number one person in the country after A Xiang."

"A medal from a major competition is enough to secure your future."

After gradually guiding him in, Sun Haiping used a combination of kindness and severity, not only giving him pep talks but also explaining the benefits he could gain.

This is something he gradually learned on Ersha Island.

苏神
Does he talk about ideals?

Also.

Should we give them a shot of adrenaline?

Sometimes we play.

But he would never just talk about ideals.

They only inject chicken blood.

It must also include other things.

Morality and interests need to be considered together.

That is in line with the characteristics of young athletes in this era.

"Okay, Master, I'll do whatever you say!"

Xie Wenjun was taken aback by what he said.

My whole being felt warm inside.

After all, the opportunity to realize one's self-worth and win glory for the country is not so many.

And now.

It wasn't just Sun Haiping.

Even Su Shen said so.

That's probably quite possible.

Xie Wenjun.

It was at this time that I truly began to realize what I should do.

We should go and try it.

This is indeed an opportunity given by God.

It might indeed be the only chance in my life.

Don't miss it!

……

Near the stands.

"What were you doing just now, Xiao Tian?" Zhao Haohuan asked curiously, wondering what Su Shen had been doing after disappearing for a while.
"Nothing much," Su Shen smiled and said, "Just giving Coach Sun some advice and discussing some things with him."

"Coach Sun? Sun Haiping?"

"Why did you start discussing it with him?"

"Aren't they the short-distance hurdles team about to compete in the finals?"

"However, the short-distance hurdles team isn't under much pressure. Making it to the finals is enough; we've already met the targets." Zhao Haohuan said to himself, "I didn't expect that even though Brother Xiang has left the competition, we still have young athletes who can step up. At least this traditional event hasn't suddenly become obsolete."

"There might have been no pressure before."

"But that's not necessarily the case now."

After Su Shen finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Haohuan and said with a smile:

"Because he's aiming for a medal."

what?
Aiming for a medal?

now?
"if not."

"Although we are young, time is of the essence."

"Make the most of it."

"Who knows if there will be a chance?"

……

Two hours passed quickly.

They quickly moved on to the finals.

The time allotted for the Moscow World Championships is quite ample.

The break lasted for nearly two and a half hours.

It won't be as bad as the Rio tournament format.

This amount of time is enough for athletes to rest and recover.

"Where have you been?" Zhou Bing asked as soon as he saw Zhao Haohuan and Su Shen approaching.

I didn't notice at all that the former had a furrowed brow in thought.

"It was a small matter, it's resolved, let's watch the game."

"Hmm? So mysterious." Zhou Bing was a little suspicious.

His gaze lingered on Old Zhao a few more times.

"You two aren't having an affair behind my back, are you?"

Su Shen hadn't spoken yet.

These words immediately drew a righteous punch from Zhao Haohuan.

Zhou Bing was so frightened that he could only hide behind Su Shen.

I stopped provoking Zhao Haohuan, who was already deep in thought. Zhao Haohuan had been pondering this question.

Think about why Su Shen just said that?

Do you really think so?

Xie Wenjun, a newcomer to the workforce, was already shouldering a heavy responsibility.

Does that mean I can then try to win a medal in the competition?
Will it?
That's a bit too crazy.

But this is something that Su Shen agrees with.

Based on this.

Zhao Haohuan could only desperately try to win her over.

tell myself.

There must be some hidden gems that I haven't discovered yet.

China Sports Channel.

"Hello everyone, this is China Sports Channel. The upcoming competition is the men's 110-meter hurdles final."

"After the tension of the semi-finals, I think the results will probably be beyond people's expectations."

"Our young athlete Xie Wenjun, despite being alone and with all the other Chinese athletes eliminated in the preliminaries, successfully broke through as the top seed in her group."

"In addition, they eliminated world record holder Merritt in the semi-finals."

"Jamaican athlete Hensler Pagement has strained his ankle and was almost guaranteed a medal."

"As a result, there were quite a few unexpected changes in the semi-finals, which also introduced a lot of variables into the finals."

"Coach Li, what are your thoughts on the upcoming 110-meter hurdles final?"

"My view is that reaching the final is enough, and I have already fulfilled my mission in this World Championships." Li Tao answered objectively and rationally: "Just enjoy the remaining matches and don't have too much pressure. Fight for every one you can. If you can get sixth or seventh place or even fifth or sixth place in the end."

"This is all a great thing for his growth."

See that?

Even Li Tao.

When faced with this problem.

I don't think that a young player who is just starting to take on important responsibilities can aim for a better position.

He didn't want to exaggerate or put pressure on the athletes.

After weighing the options, I think this is the most appropriate way to put it.

Yang Jian chimed in from the side.

“I think so too,” Yang Jian said. “Reaching the finals is already a victory, proving that we still have the ability to conquer the finals stage of major competitions in the post-Liu Xiang era.”

"From this perspective, Xie Wenjun has completed her mission and can now proceed with a light heart, without any burdens, and focus on completing this mission."

Their statement, to some extent, represents the thoughts of the vast majority of professionals and ordinary track and field fans.

They think Xie Wenjun has done a great job to get this far.

But you should ask him if he has thought about it.

Xie Wenjun is aiming for a medal in this competition.

That's an estimate.

Few people would dare to think that way.

Only Su Shen noticed Xie Wenjun's expression.

I had probably already guessed it.

On Sun Haiping's side.

They seized Xie Wenjun's ideological high ground.

Xie Wenjun is here now to carry out new tactical missions.

There is only one tactical mission.

That's what I said myself.

Win a medal.

Aim for fourth place and strive for third.

You can see it as the athletes walk onto the field one by one.

There were almost no such enthusiastic scenes as the athletes greeting each other proactively during the finals.

Their previous enthusiasm was out of respect for Liu Xiang.

Liu Xiang is no longer here.

But there's no need to be overly polite to an unknown Dongfeng driver.

Only now have you truly returned to your original self.

Su Shenmen knew this perfectly well.

Before he achieved his outstanding results, no one on the stage paid any attention to him.

Some people might even feel that way because of their skin color.

Why would someone of Asian descent come to participate in such a high-level competition?
Could it be a case of passing off inferior goods as superior ones?

Only after you achieve good results will they treat you kindly and take the initiative towards you.

The environment Xie Wenjun is facing now is the environment she should have been in.

Previously, the entire 110-meter hurdles competition environment was affected by Liu Xiang.

The world's strongest power is in our country.

That way they'll seem polite.

But now we see their true colors.

"Alright, now the camera has moved to the first track."

“William Sharman, a player from the Little Eagles.”

"This athlete, born in the 1980s, achieved a career best of 13.26 seconds this year."

"Xie Wenjun is going to fight to the death in this match."

"He is one of them."

"As long as we can win one, we won't be at the bottom."

"Second lane Jamaican contestant, Andrew Riley."

"Also this year, he achieved his best career result, winning the race at the Stade de France in 13.14 seconds with zero wind speed and sheer strength."

“This level is still very high,” Li Tao said. “13.14 seconds without wind, that’s strong in terms of raw power. If there’s a bit of good wind, maybe there’ll be a chance to get 13.10 seconds.”

"If the group assignments hadn't been so poor, he would have had a real chance to win first place in the first group."

"If Merritt is still in his prime, his teammate Paget doesn't have a muscle strain."

"Then he has no chance at all."

"But with these two withdrawing from the competition, the sudden change gave others an opportunity."

The camera then turned to him.

Andrew Riley even made a "top three" gesture towards the camera.

That's enough to explain.

He also sensed an opportunity for victory in this match.

There is a chance to win a medal.

And the chances are not low.

because of him.

This competition was just to protect Pagement. There was no chance for him to compete for a medal.

He himself understood this.

But things didn't go as planned.

Suddenly he had a chance to win a medal; suddenly the hopes of the entire Jamaican village were on his shoulders.

Andrew Riley also adjusted his match plan here.

he.

I want to try what it's like to be the main character.

"The third lane is American Jason Richardson. His personal record speaks for itself. He broke the record in 13 seconds, which is quite impressive."

"My personal best this year is 13.20 seconds."

"They still managed to escape from Lausanne."

"So, judging from that, his strength this year is definitely not as good as last year. Of course, it's also possible that he's just putting up a smokescreen."

"Just waiting to make a splash in the finals."

"So if we look at it that way, Xie Wenjun's chances against him, if it were the historical version of him, would be slim."

"But what if it's him this season?"

"It's not necessarily true that there's no chance."

"Maybe we can beat him in the semifinals."

"It's not just a coincidence or luck."

"It's because Xie Wenjun has the ability to do such a thing."

"However, it cannot be ruled out that Richardson may have also made a big splash while preparing for the final."

"The fourth lane is David Oliver, an old rival of Liu Xiang. Although his personal record has broken 12.90 seconds, he is one of the few people in human history who can run 12.80+ seconds."

"But apart from that year, he has been quite unstable ever since."

"It's normal for him to start declining as he gets older."

Even if it doesn't decline.

"The remaining condition is what it is; it's impossible for it to last another 13 seconds."

"And this season."

"This might be his last peak season."

"If he can't catch it, he might become someone who, despite setting a 12.90-second record, is ultimately tragic."

"Fortunately, before the start of the Moscow World Championships, I regained the season's WL."

"This proves that there should still be some fuel left in his tank."

Oliver has had his quietest year to date.

Watching the opponents around him change one after another.

He actually knew that if he didn't perform well this season...

It's hard to say how much longer I can keep going.

Anyway, Oliver is one of the few who has done this in his life's big competition.

Remain calm before the match.

"The fifth one."

Yang Jian smiled.

I gently adjusted my voice.

Then he spoke.

"Athletes from China."

"Liu Xiang's junior brother."

"Xie Wenjun!!!"

"Xie Wenjun improved his personal best to 13.10 seconds this year, which proves his strength."

"In addition, he is one of the few people besides Liu Xiangsu who have won the Diamond League championship in the Zhidao project."

"His progress this year has been quite remarkable."

"In addition to the semi-finals, the group leader, a dark horse, advanced."

"Hopefully he can achieve even better results in this match."

"Don't feel pressured, just go into it lightly."

can.

In reality...

Xie Wenjun only wanted to say one thing—

How can there be no pressure?
Should I try to win the card myself?

This pressure.

He's getting old.

Although it is large.

On Xie Wenjun's face.

But you can't see him back down even a little bit.

because of him.

I have now accepted the change in my goals.

He has already begun.

Think about it seriously and accept it.

I want to win a medal in this competition.

This is a small matter.

Su Shen was also watching Xie Wenjun from the stands.

Opportunities and challenges always coexist.

An era without superstar dominance.

That means anyone.

They all have the qualifications to be heroes.

let me see.

you.

Do you want to do it or not?
