The Su God of the Reopening of the Sports Arena

Chapter 2537: The first time a complete lineup was fielded, they delivered their best performance in history.
Of course, no one expected that another gold medal would come so quickly.

World record holder Liu Hong won the gold medal.

Under such circumstances, all the pressure is gone.

The more the better, since there are plenty of silver medals and all sorts of other medals to go.

The mission has been successfully completed.

The qualifying rules for the women's 4x100m relay are as follows: participants are divided into two groups, with the top three from each group advancing directly. In addition to the top three from each group, two more participants with the best performances will be selected to join the next round.

In other words, if you can't get into the top three in your group, you need to get into the top five to have a chance.

Ideally, you should be in the top 4 of your group.

However, given that Asian women's relay teams have always been weak, very few people have any expectations.

Even the Chinese relay team is like this.

Running in 43-44 seconds is a common occurrence.

But only these young girls themselves know the truth.

They are ready.

This time I came.

At the Bird's Nest, everything was in the right place at the right time.

I'm not just here to observe.

After all, compared to the previous personnel configuration, the current energy level is almost at its maximum.

Not to mention this time, four team members directly participated in the 100-meter preliminary rounds and all of them made it to the semifinals.

At the same time, both Chen Juan and Wei Yongli are athletes who can break the 11-second barrier, with Chen Juan even breaking the 10.80-second barrier.

These two players are good enough to compete with most of their peers in the world.

Previously, the reason why we were always held back was because the traditional players in China were the biggest obstacle.

Or maybe the girls aren't old enough.

In such a situation, without the support of two runners, it's impossible to achieve a good result.

Finally, this group of girls has gradually grown up.

Let alone Yuan Qiqi's 11.20+, there are several others with a time of 11.30+.

These results are much stronger than before, and they are all seasoned veterans who frequently compete abroad. Unlike domestic athletes, they are not unable to maintain their best performance on the international stage.

In other words, even if those players were decent at the Pb level, their performance on the international stage would actually drop significantly.

These people would absolutely not do that.

Absolutely trustworthy.

That's the case.

There are some that can be compared.

With everyone on Ersha Island, detailed handover training naturally began.

I do several sets every day.

To maintain their form, they will conduct intensive training during major competitions.

Having lived together for so long, their tacit understanding goes without saying.

It's completely different from the ones before.

Everyone stayed close to Chen Juan.

They formed a strong group.

In order to conserve their energy, Liang Xiaojing and Yuan Qiqi, who participated in the semi-finals, both chose to rest during the preliminary rounds.

Because the people who replaced them were actually not much different in skill level from them.

Whether it's Kong Lingwei or Ge Manqi with her Nezha-style haircut.

It's all the same.

Their scores were very close, and at that time, it was impossible to qualify individually; the difference between them was very small.

In addition, they were quite excited to see their teammates showcasing themselves at the Bird's Nest, and even a little jealous.

Jealousy, if used properly, can also become a source of motivation.

Therefore, since they only have one shot to run, they will definitely go all out.

Absolutely no mistakes.

As the host country, we were assigned to the second lane.

Actually, the path wasn't that good.

This division has even angered some veteran track and field fans.

What happened to the home advantage?

It doesn't have to be so fair. Everyone else has to have an advantage, so why can't we?

As for the rest, they are divided as follows—

First route Nigeria (NGR).

line-up:

Gloria ASUMNU, Stephanie KALU, Deborah Oluwaseun ODEYEMI
Team China is in lane two.

Cast: Ge Manqi, Kong Lingwei, Wei Yongli, Chen Juan.

The third Italian (ITA) course.

Lineup: Giulia RIVA, Irene SIRAGUSA, Anna BONGIORNI, Gloria HOOPER.

The fourth route is the Little Eagle Country (GBR).

Lineup: Asha PHILIP, Jodie WILLIAMS, Bianca WILLIAMS, Desiree HENRY.

Fifth Jamaica (JAM).

The lineup: Sherone SIMPSON, Natasha MORRISON, Kerron STEWART, Shelly-Ann FRASER-PRYCE.

Sixth Russia (RUS).

Lineup: Marina PANTELEYEVA, Kseniya RYZHOVA, Elizaveta DEMIROVA, Ekaterina SMIRNOVA.

The seventh route is Canada (CAN).

Lineup: Crystal EMMANUEL, Kimberly HYACINTHE, Isatu FOFANAH, Khamica BINGHAM.

Eighth Poland (POL).

Lineup: Agata FORKASIEWICZ, Anna KIELBASINSKA, Weronika WEDLER, Marta JESCHKE.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at the lineups, you know this is a tough opponent; it's packed with strong teams.

Jamaica goes without saying; they're a team that consistently rivals the United States for the championship. There are also a whole host of strong European teams to contend with.

In the past, if you were placed in this group, you basically had no chance.

It is too difficult.

Even a top-five finish isn't guaranteed.

Honestly, they might not even be able to beat Nigeria.

This is no joke. Look at our women's 4x100m World Championship results in history.

Even if you put it in 2025.

The number of times it can be opened for 43 seconds is pitifully small.

It's fair to say that, apart from Doha, almost everything else is unbearable to watch.

Before 2015, the original timeline was all about striving for a time of over 44 seconds.

So not many people take us seriously.

Few people thought we would advance.

It is precisely at times like these that we must grasp the psychology of these people.

Let's make a good push.

……

In August 2015, the afternoon sun pierced through the clouds at the Bird's Nest, casting dappled light and shadow on the red synthetic track.

A temperature of 29 degrees Celsius combined with 48% humidity creates the perfect conditions for sprinting competitions.

The eight teams in the first heat of the women's 4x100m relay are all in position.

The lane numbers are arranged sequentially from 1 to 8, with the red figures in lane 2 standing out particularly—

That was the Chinese team, carrying the hopes of Asian sprinting.

A world-shaking speed extravaganza is about to begin.

That's right. Although our women's sprint team has never been very strong, she is still a representative figure in Asia.

This shows just how poor Asian women's sprinting is.

The clamor in the stands suddenly intensified, and national flags of various colors fluttered in the wind.

When the camera cut to lane 2, a striking patch of Chinese red instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the entire Chinese audience.

Four figures dressed in red battle robes with gold trim, the five-star red flags on their chests gleaming.

From the first runner to the fourth runner, the runners were Ge Manqi, Kong Lingwei, Wei Yongli, and Chen Juan.

The fingertips of the four Chinese girls were all damp with a thin layer of sweat.

The silver baton gleamed coldly in the sunlight.

That was the tacit understanding built up over months of closed training.

This is also the heavy weight of Asian hope that rests in our palms at this moment.

The most eye-catching one was Chen Juan, who was standing in the fourth batter's preparation area.

This 25-year-old girl is 1.76 meters tall, making her stand out like a crane among chickens in the generally petite female sprinters.

Just a few days ago in the women's 10-meter semifinals, she broke through the encirclement of European and American athletes with a time of 80+ seconds and made it into the finals.

On the night of the final, she pushed her limits even further—to 10.79 seconds.

This achievement, worthy of being recorded in the history of Asian sprinting, allowed her to snatch a precious silver medal from Jamaican sprinter Shelly Ann Fraser-Price.

This one action alone is enough to make everyone cheer for her.

"Chen Juan's talent lies in her almost exaggerated stride length—1.92 meters, far exceeding the average of 1.75 meters for female sprinters. When she sprints at full speed, her legs seem to be equipped with powerful springs, and each push-off can generate amazing propulsion. Her acceleration in the later stages is something that countless opponents can only dream of."

"The coaching staff placed her in the fourth batter position for the game-winning kick, so that she could use her 'wind and fire wheels' to create a red storm on the last 100 meters of the straight."

"At this moment, we can see her knees slightly bent, her hands resting on them, her bangs blowing in the wind, but her eyes are as sharp as a hawk's, staring intently at the track ahead."

"It's as if that's the only path leading to the final, extending from lane 2."

set.

"Let's see if our young female athletes can create a miracle at the Bird's Nest and advance to the finals."

Ge Manqi, who was running the first leg, took a deep breath and pressed her cheek against her forearm.

She was still a junior officer at that time.

But after seeing Liang Xiaojing's performance, she now just wants to show herself.

All you nervous people out there, step back and relax.

Now is not the time to be nervous!
Even though her heart was pounding in her chest.

But he clenched his teeth tightly.

As the team's "starting spearhead," her greatest strength lies in establishing an advantage on the curves, and the curve radius of lane 2 is something she is very familiar with.

During pre-race training, she practiced her starting rhythm countless times in this lane.

Moreover, she only has one shot to run, so she has to go all out.

Yuan Guoqiang's words still echoed in my ears:

"Listen for gunfire! Absolutely do not look at the gun!"

"Take short, high-frequency steps for the first 30 meters, keeping your stride frequency high. After 30 meters, gradually increase your stride length. Enter the handover area precisely at 70 meters, keeping your eyes on Kong Lingwei's left hand. The baton exchange must be steady, accurate, and fast!"

"Don't hesitate at all!"

In a relay race, a good handover is more important than a good runner!!!

I don't know if Yuan Guoqiang thought this way before, but he definitely thinks this way now.

After all, we were able to become a strong men's relay team in the world, and we didn't rely on individual abilities at the beginning.

Rather, it's our strong handover capabilities.

Previously, the women's team was scattered and could not train together like the men's team.

Even occasional intensive training sessions are far from sufficient.

But things are different now. Like the men's team, they are mostly from Ersha Island.

Then you can train properly.

To fully enhance the tacit understanding.

It's okay if you're not good enough personally.

Just use a handover.

Besides, our current individual abilities are certainly not up to par with the teams from the Americas...

But when facing these European teams...

Their individual abilities are already quite good.

Two of the batters even have individual abilities that surpass those of almost all European teams.

Isn't that an advantage?
If the handover goes well, there is a good chance of advancing.

The concern now is that the younger players might get nervous.

They won't be able to perform at their best, or they might even drop the bat.

That's a real blow.

After all, the most difficult thing to figure out for young athletes is their consistency.

However, there's nothing the coaches can do about it.

Because ultimately, it's the athletes themselves who get to play.

The coach can only say and do so before she steps onto the track.

Once you're on the track, there's no point in saying anything.

The starter's voice, coming through the loudspeaker, cut through the clamor in the stands like a sharp knife.

In an instant, the entire stadium fell into a deathly silence.

The eight figures bowed almost simultaneously, their buttocks slightly raised.

The legs form a standard "preparatory" angle.

Hands braced against the rubber surface behind the starting line.

Your fingertips dig into those fine, non-slip particles.

Out of the corner of her eye, she could clearly see her other first-runner opponents: Gloria Asumunu, the Nigerian swimmer in lane 1, was rubbing her palms together vigorously.

Polish athlete Agata Wkaszejevic has already tensed his calf muscles, and his knees are trembling slightly.

Meanwhile, Jamaican runner Sheronie Simpson in lane 5 had a confident smile on her face.

That was the composure of a world champion, and also the thing Ge Manqi most wanted to tear apart at that moment.

Jamaica will face any opponent except the United States.

There was no pressure at all.

That's what creates that sense of relaxation.

However, the Jamaican team is not a team that the Chinese women's relay team can go head-to-head with now. Even if they want to tear apart the world champions, now is not the time.

All you have to do now is successfully complete the preliminary round.

Successfully entered the final round.

If we can't even make it to the finals, then there's no point in talking about anything else.

The electronic command sound was drawn out very long this time, like a string stretched to its limit.

Ge Manqi's muscles tensed instantly.

The blood seemed to freeze at that moment.

She could feel her center of gravity shifting forward little by little, every nerve stretched taut like a bowstring, and all she could hear was her own heavy breathing.

And the dull drumbeats of the heart pounding against the chest.

You can do it, Ge Manqi.

If A-Jing can do it, why can't you?
You have to do it.

Otherwise, she'll definitely laugh at me later.

That's how young people are; when they think about comparisons, their competitive spirit actually outweighs the tension of the competition.

Bang————————

The game begins in the next second.

A gunshot rang out.

"Game start!!!"

Yang Jian's voice rang out almost simultaneously.

The cheers from the crowd suddenly became as intense as a heatwave.

That crisp, explosive sound was like a thunderclap thrown into a calm lake.

Eight figures shot out almost simultaneously, the rubber track beneath their feet emitting a dull thud.

Ge Manqi's reaction speed was astonishing—0.148 seconds!
This number is only 0.007 seconds slower than that of Asha Phillips, the fastest first batter for the Hawks.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Her starting acceleration was textbook perfect.

It looks like he's been practicing just as much as usual.

Especially since I wasn't in any of the individual events in this competition, all my focus was on the relay.

Even if it's just running one leg.

We must also go all out.

The first 30 meters were an extreme display of short, high-frequency steps, as if his toes were equipped with springs.

Each landing felt as light as stepping on cotton, yet as hard as being driven into the track.

Her body leaned slightly to the left, her shoulder almost touching the inside lane marking.

This is the essence of cornering: minimizing running distance and converting centrifugal force into forward propulsion.

Although what she did was not perfect.

But it's enough.

At least among most Asian athletes, her performance was exceptionally strong.

Don't forget, she's even younger than Liang Xiaojing.

Such a performance is entirely due to extensive training and competition.

"Oh, Ge Manqi is running well. Her initial acceleration was fierce, and her reactions were quick. We're quite far ahead!"

Yang Jian didn't expect us to be so strong at the start.

Although it's hard to say exactly where it's running, at first glance it looks like it's in the top three.

They saw their own athlete immediately jump into the top three.

Chinese spectators in the stands.

A deafening roar has already erupted.

They waved red flags, their voices hoarse from shouting, but their eyes remained fixed on the red figure.

As long as our athletes perform well.

Our audience has never been stingy with her cheers.

There are absolutely no exceptions to this.

Our track and field fans are definitely among the cutest track and field fans in the world.

If the athletes perform well, they will definitely perform well too.

In the 50-meter dash, Ge Manqi has stabilized in third place.

Second only to Jamaica's Simpson and the Little Eagles' Philip. Her stride frequency remained high, and the amplitude of her arm swing was precisely controlled within 30 centimeters in front of her chest, minimizing wind resistance.

She could feel the wind whistling past her ears, carrying the breaths of her opponents and the cheers from the stands.

The excitement and tension brought by such a competition are incomparable to those of ordinary competitions.

No wonder they say to accumulate experience in major competitions.

If you don't accumulate experience, you won't understand what a major competition feels like.

but.

Ge Manqi managed to hold on thanks to her extensive experience in international competitions.

They persevered.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

"Ge Manqi, Ge Manqi performed exceptionally well! She seems to be in third place!!!"

You should know that the first runner on the Eagles' side has a season-best time of 11.10 seconds.

Last year, it had already evolved to 11.10+ seconds.

Logically speaking, this level is much better than Ge Manqi's.

But she managed to hold on like this.

It's already surprising.

At 80 meters, the red marker line of the handover area came into view.

Ge Manqi's gaze was fixed on Kong Lingwei, who was not far ahead.

She knew that even if she ran, she couldn't keep up with these people.

This is a difference in strength.

It's not something that can be changed simply by having passionate feelings.

If it's an individual competition, then there's really nothing we can do.

But this isn't an individual competition.

This is a relay race.

Then...

There's another way, isn't there?
Even if it's just running, you might lose by more than 0.2 meters, which is more than two meters.

But that doesn't mean there's no chance.

As long as the handover is done well.

This can significantly reduce the pressure on the next runner.

Kong Lingwei had already made preparations.

She stood at the front of the handover area, leaning slightly forward, with her left hand extended behind her, palm facing up.

Forming a standard "baton-passing hand gesture".

Downward-pressing handover. Begin.

Without a doubt, this is also a modified version by Su Shen, without the Seven Deadly Sins version of the downward pressure.

If done properly, it can definitely have amazing effects.

In particular, women's relays have always relied heavily on chance in the overall atmosphere.

Unlike men, who possess such strong technical skills.

Improving the technical aspects can bridge a significant gap in capabilities.

Of course, the first thing to do is to do it well.

If you don't do it well, it's all for nothing.

Listening to the approaching sound of Ge Manqi's spiked shoes.

Kong Lingwei turned her head slightly, her eyes fixed on Ge Manqi's body, not the baton.

This is an ironclad rule of relay races: only by keeping an eye on the person sending the baton can you predict their speed and achieve a perfect handover in the same direction.

This is also necessary to better complete the next step of the handover.

coming.

Handover.

You must do it well.

Yuan Guoqiang was also somewhat nervous.

Because the women's relay team has always been weak, the key to success lies in the handover.

If the handover is done well, there will be opportunities.

But these athletes are all so young.

Can you do it?

"Pay close attention to the handover process, be extremely careful during the handover!"

Yang Jian and Liu Xiang.

He said the same thing.

This isn't the early 2000s or the last century. Ever since Suarez developed the glue-jointing technique, the whole world has started to adopt it. Everyone knows how crucial handover is in sprint relays now.

If we continue to ignore this in this day and age...

That's idiotic behavior.

I didn't see even the most casual handover between the US and Jamaican teams.

Are you all starting to hone your handover skills now?
Instead of running around a few times and exchanging passes casually before the competition starts, as was the case before.

Times have changed, and you must keep up with the times.

Otherwise, you won't be able to board the ship of the new era.

"Lingwei! Take the baton!"

Ge Manqi's voice, though slightly hoarse, was exceptionally firm.

She didn't slow down much, maintaining a speed of 11.30+.

At the same time, his right hand trembled slightly as he handed the baton into Kong Lingwei's palm.

Kong Lingwei followed at just the right moment.

He gently tapped the button with his left hand.

The baton seemed to have eyes, landing steadily in her palm.

The entire handover process took very little time.

The results are excellent.

Without the slightest pause, the moment Kong Lingwei took the baton, she suddenly pushed off the ground and accelerated.

Her technical strength lies in her "seamless transition," and she excels at instantly entering her optimal running state after receiving the baton.

The coaching staff placed her in the second leg because they valued her skill of "stable connection and increased speed".

"Excellent, the handover went smoothly!"

When Yang Jian's voice came over, Yuan Guoqiang clenched his fist slightly.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

The second leg is a straight track with a wide field of vision.

This is the perfect time to accelerate.

Although Kong Lingwei's stride was not as exaggerated as Chen Juan's, it was superior in that her stride frequency was fast and her rhythm was steady.

Her stride frequency instantly increased to 5.0 steps per second, and the track beneath her feet seemed to leave a trail of afterimages.

She could vaguely feel the baton burning in her palm.

That was the power that Ge Manqi had passed on, and it was also the responsibility that she had to shoulder at this moment.

She's only running this leg.

She didn't get a chance in the final.

That's her only chance to shine.

We must go all out.

Give it your all!!!
Bang bang bang bang bang.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Because the handover was so smooth, she quickly closed the gap of nearly a meter in front of her.

Russian athlete Ryrova Ksenia is trying to surpass her.

Canadian athlete Yassinte Kimberly is also making a determined effort to catch up.

But Kong Lingwei ignored her; her eyes were only on Wei Yongli ahead of her.

Only that increasingly closer handover zone for the third runner.

At 150 meters, Kong Lingwei's speed had reached its limit.

Her posture was impeccable, with her head upright, shoulders relaxed, and core muscles taut, transmitting power throughout her body with every push-off.

At this moment, Kong Lingwei could hear the shouts from the stands getting louder and louder.

The voice carried expectation, anxiety, and boundless trust.

"Kong Lingwei is chasing after the Hawks' second batter, Jody Williams!"

"They're climbing incredibly fast, wiping out the gap!!!"

"We've caught up, and we have a chance to surpass them!!!"

Kong Lingwei never expected that she would have the opportunity to go from batting to overtaking the second batter for the Little Eagles.

After all, Jody Williams is no pushover either.

作为一个93年的选手，她可是17岁就已经跑到了11.24，18岁更是直接冲到了11秒18。

If she hadn't suffered an injury in the middle, she would likely have been close to 11 seconds.

Even so, she had the ability to clock 11.20 seconds last year.

This ability is something that Kong Lingwei currently finds difficult to match.

But little did anyone know that her performance would decline significantly again this year.

His best time has dropped to just 11.50 seconds.

Yes, you read that right.

The best time was only 11.50 seconds.

Although it was a headwind of -0.3 meters per second.

Even with a tailwind, this time wouldn't be much better than 11.50 seconds.

In that case, the baton exchange eliminated a gap of nearly one meter.

Now we'll just use our strength to directly attack and advance.

It's not impossible.

Williams's shot was entirely his own doing, giving Kong Lingwei the opportunity.

Young women never miss an opportunity.

I can only run this leg, so how could I possibly let any opportunity slip by?
One more than one is one more.

Kong Lingwei continued her charge forward, and at this point, Williams found it difficult to keep up.

180 meters away, the handover zone markings are right in front of us.

Kong Lingwei took a deep breath and adjusted her rhythm half a second in advance, stabilizing her speed slightly.

This is to create the most comfortable conditions for Wei Yongli to take over the baton.

After all, it was just the preliminary round, and stability should be the priority, a point she was well aware of.

Besides, she almost overtook the second batter for the Hawks team here.

This is already an unexpected surprise.

Wei Yongli stood in the handover zone, her eyes shining brightly. A few days earlier, in the 10-meter semi-finals, she ran a time of 96 seconds, successfully advancing to the finals.

That momentum hadn't faded yet. As the third runner, her task was to navigate that 100-meter bend.

Let's improve the Chinese team's ranking again.

Maintain your second advantage.

After all, chasing Jamaica ahead is unrealistic.

Even if they run at a relaxed pace, they can easily break the 42-second barrier.

Therefore, there is no need to take the Jamaican team too seriously.

The original idea was to secure third place.

Aim for second place, that's enough.

Who would have thought that the two little girls in front of me would be so helpful?

By the second leg, they had almost secured the lead.

They have almost achieved the goals set at the beginning of the competition.

"Sister Li! Answer it!!!"

As soon as Kong Lingwei's voice rang out, Wei Yongli had already started. Her steps precisely followed Kong Lingwei's rhythm.

Extend your left hand behind you.

He caught the baton steadily in his palm.

The handover process takes very little time.

The handover time was almost impossible to complete in the previous relay.

Wei Yongli's explosive power was fully unleashed at this moment.

Her starting acceleration was even more ferocious than Ge Manqi's, with her stride frequency reaching its maximum in the first 20 meters.

His body shot forward like a cannonball.

Of all the active athletes in Asia, only Chen Juan stands out.

No one can rival her anymore.

The third leg is on the curve.

This is the leg of the relay that tests the runners' overall abilities the most.

This is often referred to as a critical intersection.

Generally, a trustworthy person will be placed in this position.

For the men's team, you put Su Shen there.

The Jamaican team usually puts Usain Bolt on that baton.

Only qualified and experienced people can take charge of this position.

Wei Yongli's cornering technique is among the best in the national team.

Chen Juan is required to guard the last baton, so naturally she will guard the third baton.

It couldn't be more perfect.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Her body was tilted at just the right angle.

Keep your shoulders and hips on the same horizontal line, and step on the optimal tangent line of the curve with each step.

She could feel the centrifugal force pulling at her body.

But her core muscles are like a block of steel.

He firmly maintained his balance.

Just kidding, Wei Yongli only received more scientific training in 2018, and then she broke the 11-second barrier. It's clear that her talent is undeniable.

It could even be said that, without Chen Juan, in the original timeline, she would have been the most talented person before Chen Yujie appeared.

It has now been developed in a scientific manner.

It should not be underestimated.

She had already teleported a large distance away from the Little Eagles team at the original border.

The lead is now very obvious.

Bianca, the third runner for the Little Eagles, started to fall far behind.

The reason is simple: her best time of the season is only 11.43 seconds. How can that be compared to Wei Yongli, who can break 11 seconds?
Even if she achieves her best time of last year, 11.17 seconds.

That's not nearly enough.

This is a direct gap in strength.

Let Wei Yongli continue to pull.

Quickly establish large areas of advantage.

In the past, because the first two batters in the domestic team were relatively weak, Wei Yongli had to catch up in the second batter position.

Unexpectedly, after switching to our own people, even though they were young, they were already ahead of the game once they were in our hands.

There's no need to chase after it anymore.

What else is there to say?

Keep pulling it open.

"Wei Yongli has completely outmaneuvered his opponent and is now firmly in second place!"

"We can confidently advance to the finals!"

If Wei Yongli were to eat this whole thing by force, she could eat at least four or five meters of it.

In addition, there are advantages from the previous handover.

The Eagles have been completely left behind.

If it weren't for the Jamaican team being so aggressive...

Neither of them is without the ability to fight.

280 meters, the handover zone for the fourth runner was just ahead. Wei Yongli's gaze finally fell on that familiar figure—Chen Juan.

She played very easily this round, creating a significant advantage that has almost secured her second place.

At this point, it doesn't matter whether we chase or not, since we still need to conserve some energy.

The centrifugal force of the curve was still pulling on Wei Yongli's body. Her left arm was close to her torso, and her right hand was gripping the baton as she sped along the optimal tangent line on the inside of the track.

The fourth baton handover zone is just around the corner.

Chen Juan was already standing on the pre-running line outside the lane, her body slightly leaning inward, her left arm stretched straight back, palm facing up, and four fingers together.

The tiger's mouth opens into a stable groove.

This is a posture tailor-made for a downward handshake, with even the angle between the arms and the ground being precise and flawless.

Wei Yongli did not slow down, but only slightly adjusted her pace to match Chen Juan's starting rhythm perfectly.

This is the tacit understanding that the national team has honed thousands of times. The worst thing about the downward passing is "chasing the baton" or "waiting for the baton". Only when the speed is synchronized can the passing action be as smooth as flowing water.

She turned to the side, extended her right arm forward, and gently pressed down with her wrist, steadily placing the front end of the baton into Chen Juan's palm.

Without any unnecessary shaking or pause, the moment the rod touched her palm... Chen Juan's thumb and four fingers clamped down.

The force was just right, not too tight, so as not to affect the subsequent arm swing.

It won't be so loose that the rod slips off.

The entire handover process was like two red lightning bolts silently meeting on the runway.

Wei Yongli's body did not lose its balance at all, and after the handover was completed, she continued to move forward a few steps.

The moment Chen Juan gripped the stick, she slammed her left leg into the ground.

Using the centrifugal force of exiting the bend, the angle of body tilt suddenly increased, like a cheetah that had been poised for a long time, suddenly leaping out.

"The handover was both successful and smooth!"

"The handover between these two individuals is absolutely world-class!"

Isn't that world-class? These two have been working together for so many years.

In terms of the degree of tacit understanding.

They don't even need to take it too seriously to be able to compete with the world's top teams.

Moreover, both of them are incredibly strong.

Except for the Jamaican team.

No team can suppress them now.

They themselves hadn't even thought about it.

I suddenly became so strong.

The roar from the stands instantly lifted the roof off the London Stadium, and everyone stared intently at the tall, red figure.

Chen Juan's stride was incredibly graceful, and the amplitude and frequency of her arm swings were perfectly matched, with the baton firmly held in her palm.

It rises and falls naturally with the rhythm of the arm swing.

There was no sign of awkwardness after the handover.

The Jamaican runner ahead had already surged forward, his green figure drawing a sharp arc on the straightaway.

The fourth batter for Armaica was undoubtedly champion Frazier.

It's normal that you can't catch up with her; this Jack is a legend among legends.

But Chen Juan's speed exuded a calm confidence.

She didn't push herself to the limit; she simply kept her stride frequency within a manageable range.

Her trump card was the later stages of the game, but she didn't fully unleash it at this moment.

She could clearly sense that the gap between herself and the Jamaican athlete had not widened, but she was not in a hurry to catch up.

The coaching staff's pre-match instructions still echoed in my ears: there's no need to push too hard in the preliminaries; conserving energy is the key to the finals.

After all, they still have to compete in the finals.

No need to rush, securing second place is enough.

No matter how hard you try, it's almost impossible to get first place.

As for the young athlete from the UK in lane four, he was fighting hard, his pace was out of control, but he was still being left further and further behind by Chen Juan.

Chen Juan's gaze swept over the Jamaican athlete in front of her, then glanced at the Eagles behind her, a very faint smile curving her lips.

She slightly reduced her strength, her stride remained broad, but she lacked that overwhelming explosive power.

The Eagles' fourth runner actually had a season-best time of 11.11 seconds.

This is a new career high.

You can't say she's bad at cooking.

It's just a pity that I ran into Chen Juan.

Even a walk.

They can all burst her apart.

Desai Henry was no match for Chen Juan, a silver medalist.

Even more so than Chen Juan in front of Fraser.

There are many more who are powerless to fight back.

"Chen Juan slowed down noticeably; she must be preparing to release the water."

"This is a wise decision. We've already secured second place, so there's no need to rush."

"I didn't expect to win the preliminary round so easily this time, it's like..."

Before they could finish speaking, Chen Juan and the others had already reached the vicinity of the finish line.

Frazier was the one who naturally passed it on.

41 seconds 84.

Undoubtedly a superb result, and the predictions came true.

As expected, the only team that could threaten them was the American team.

But Chen Juan ranked second.

After crossing the finish line, the electronic screen displayed the results.

Equally astonishing.

Prior to this, our women's relay race times were almost always around 4344 seconds.

Then suddenly...

It jumped to 42.36 seconds.

It's still a situation of massive monetary easing.

This……

They will not be preparing for this World Championships.

Let's use this newly assembled lineup.

Try rushing the game.

Seeing this result...

Suddenly, a feeling arose in my heart.

An idea popped up that seemed unrealistic, but now it seems not so unrealistic.

The Chinese women's relay team surpassed the previous time by almost two seconds.

They easily advanced to the finals.

They achieved the best qualifying result in history.

No, in fact, if you know the history, you'll know that these are not the best qualifying results.

Placed in the women's 100-meter relay race across Asia.

These are the best results in the competition.

Absolutely, absolutely.

none of them.
