Chapter 205 Grow up quickly 【Subscribe】

The news that the Chinese men's relay team won the World Relay Championship in the Bahamas did not cause much disturbance, whether it was abroad or at home, because the result of 38 seconds was not impressive.

After all, the top level in Asia has been pulled to within 37 seconds by the Chinese team and the Neon team. Although he won the championship, the time of 60 seconds is far from the championship in any Olympic Games or World Championships in the past ten years. Far.

对于教练组来说，女队在4×100米决赛上以43秒11获得季军反而比男队的冠军更值得庆贺，这充分体现了16—17冬训效果是出色的。

On April 4, the men's and women's relay teams returned to China, and Wu Ziyi also began to prepare for the upcoming Diamond League.

As early as December 12 last year, the official website of the Chinese Athletics Association released a detailed explanation of the new rules of the Diamond League. Now that May is approaching, Wu Ziyi has also turned his attention to the Diamond League, although he has no intention of competing for the championship. Thoughts, but it is also necessary to know the rules.

Compared with before, the big change in the Diamond League is that the first 12 stations are set as qualifying stations, and those who score in the first 12 stations and enter the top eight in the final individual event (some events such as middle and long-distance running take the top 12) are eligible to participate in the final Two finals.

In the finals, the champion of a project was 5 U.S. dollars, which was 10 U.S. dollars more than last year. The total prize money for the top eight was 32 U.S. dollars. The total investment in the finals of 320 projects (men and women) was [-] million U.S. dollars.

The top eight contestants in the two stages of the finals will all have prize money, which is US$5 for the champion, US$2 for the runner-up, and US$31 for the No.10 in total.The top eight winners of the qualification station also have a share: 1 for the champion, 6 for the runner-up, and 4 for the third place, totaling US$3.

按照新规，前面12站资格站的打分规则也有了变化，单场前八名都有分数，从16年1~6名的10、6、4、3、2、1，变为今年1~8名的8~1分，苏黎世站和布鲁塞尔站的分数翻倍。

In the end, the one who ranks first in individual points will become the annual [IAAF Diamond League Champion], and will be awarded a diamond-encrusted trophy, a prize of [-] US dollars, and a wild card for the World Athletics Championships.

The IAAF did not give a detailed explanation of this "Wild Card for the World Championships", but Wu Ziyi speculated that it can guarantee that the athletes who won the annual Diamond League championship can participate in the 2019 Doha World Championships even if they are not in good condition.

"Ayi, what are you looking at?"

Wu Ziyi was browsing the rules of this year's Diamond League. He didn't notice the person coming from behind. He put away his phone and looked at the person.

"Sister Wen, I'm looking at the information about the Diamond League. The IAAF has changed the rules again, so I need to find out more about it." Wu Ziyi replied with a smile.

Li Wen sat down next to Wu Ziyi, "It just so happened that I just received an email from Doha. They asked if you are sure that you will participate in the Diamond League next month in Doha?" After a pause, Li Wen Covering your mouth and chuckling: "You didn't go there two years ago, they were afraid that you would let their pigeons go~"

"How could it be? Am I like the kind of person who will let other people's pigeons go?"

Wu Ziyi did not want to participate in the first two years. In 15, his 16-meter ranking was not enough to participate in the Doha race. In [-], his ranking was definitely enough, but the [-]-meter race in Doha was a non-diamond race, so he felt it was unnecessary. participated.

The IAAF's individual prize money for each event is only a small amount. In a world-renowned rich country like Qatar, the appearance fees and extra bonuses given to star athletes are the largest. That's why the Diamond League, the first stop of the year in Doha, Qatar, can attract so many people. Celebrities will compete.Especially Gatlin, since 12, he has only missed the 14-year Doha station.

The name Doha means - here is a lot of money, come quickly.

"Just as long as you are sure to participate, then I will prepare now~" Sister Li Wen patted Wu Ziyi's head gently and left.

As soon as Sister Li Wen left, Tang Xingqiang walked up to Wu Ziyi and sat down. He pursed his lips and said nothing, sometimes rubbing his hands, sometimes stamping his feet, not knowing what he was thinking.

Wu Ziyi ignored him and continued to swipe his phone. It's not good to be so shy. Wu Ziyi thinks he is a very talkative person. If Tang Xingqiang still doesn't want to speak first, then Wu Ziyi thinks it's more appropriate to let Wu Zhiqiang run the third shot.

"That. Old Wu, thank you."

"Thank me? Thank me for what?" Wu Ziyi continued to stare at his phone without looking up.

Tang Xingqiang looked at Wu Zhiqiang and Liang Jinsen who were chasing and fighting with Xie Zhenye in the track and field, and lowered his voice again: "You slowed down and waited for me when you were in the Bahamas. I was too anxious to pass the stick, and almost didn't Catch up with you. If you don't slow down, I can't pass it out."

"Hey——what did I think?" Wu Ziyi put away his phone and looked at Tang Xingqiang. "I should slow down. If there is a mistake in the handover, it is not the responsibility of one person."

Wu Ziyi thought Tang Xingqiang was going to say something. In the Bahamas relay final, Wu Ziyi just wanted to complete the handover safely, and he didn't think Tang Xingqiang made a mistake.Listening to him say it now, Wu Ziyi realized that he handed over the stick early.
Tang Xingqiang is different from the talkative Xie Zhenye. Xie Zhenye is eager to make friends with everyone he knows. Su Bingtian is sincere and trains hard. He is a good example for the team members. Wu Ziyi has the style of a general.

The current situation is that no matter who will run the third club, they must at least get along well with Wu Ziyi and Xie Zhenye. If they can't relax and get along with each other in daily training, how can they perform at a good level in the competition? ?

Wu Ziyi stood up, patted the ashes on his buttocks, "Get up and train, you have to run well this year, and try to keep your time within 10 seconds. I think Zhiqiang is in good condition. If you are in China If the grand prix race is not good, maybe it will be him and not you in London."

Tang Xingqiang smiled shyly: "If I really can't outrun him, then I deserve it because I can't participate in the World Championships. It's the rule that whoever is stronger wins."

Wu Ziyi didn't know what to say. Tang Xingqiang's words had a hint of decadence in them. He didn't seem to have much confidence in himself.

It’s understandable when you think about it, aside from Su Bingtian, the big brother in 89, both Xie Zhenye and Wu Ziyi are of the same age as him, especially Wu Ziyi, who is obviously the youngest in the team, but his achievements have reached a level that they can only look up to .

When he ran the first baton, he only needed to hand over the baton with Xie Zhenye. Now it has become the third baton. He has to take Xie Zhenye's baton and hand over the baton to Wu Ziyi safely.

Wu Ziyi was careless, he suddenly thought of one thing - it is still 2017 instead of 2019!Now whether it is Tang Xingqiang or Wu Zhiqiang, or Liang Jinsen and Yang Yang, their hard power is getting bigger and bigger by Wu, Su, and Xie. Let them run the third round, how can there be no pressure in their hearts?

Xie Zhenye won't talk about it, he doesn't have many fans, so what about Wu Ziyi?The number on the scarf is already 4 million, and the Pyzhan also has 6 million.Putting the facts aside, if they really made a mistake in an important game, and Wu Ziyi's small group of fans ran to blast it, would they be able to bear it?Can you withstand the pressure in your heart?

Thinking of this, he stopped and waited for Tang Xingqiang to catch up with him, then put his arms around his shoulders and walked forward.

Tang Xingqiang, Wu Zhiqiang, Liang Jinsen. You guys should grow up quickly.
