Hexagonal God

Chapter 571 Duel with Gatlin

Justin Gatlin is a very famous athlete all over the world.

In 2004, Justin Gatlin won the 9.85-meter championship at the Athens Olympics with a time of seconds.

At the 2005 Helsinki World Championships, he won the men's 20.04m in seconds.

At the 2012 London Olympics, he ran 9.79 seconds and won the bronze medal.

At the 2013 Moscow World Championships, he ran the 9.77 meters in seconds and won the silver medal.

This is his current achievement, but Su Mo also knows that he will run 9.74 seconds and win the gold medal at the Capital World Championships next year.

In next year's Doha Diamond League, he also ran a time of 9.74 seconds.

This shows what?
This shows that this is Justin Gatlin's peak period and the time when he runs fastest.

This person was actually targeted by South Korea. How come I didn’t know about it before?

So when Jatlin appeared, many people present protested.

The answer given by the South Korean side was that Jatlin did not attend the opening ceremony due to personal reasons, but this did not affect his participation in the competition.

Su Mo watched the man who changed his name to Jatlin finish the 100-meter preliminaries.

His time was 9.89 seconds, easily securing first place in the semifinals.

Su Mo knew that this was another butterfly effect caused by himself.

Without even asking, Su Mo almost knew the whole story.

Originally, Justin Gatlin had no plans to participate in the competition, but in order to snipe Su Mo, Li Zairong must have made arrangements in the United States and directly naturalized him to South Korea.

It is not known whether this naturalization will last long, but it is not difficult for those big conglomerates to accomplish such a thing. Even it is not difficult for Su Mo to naturalize an athlete and make him join our nationality.

It’s just that our country’s system is slower, while these countries have reduced many processes.

It turned out that in Su Mo's dream, the Qatari athlete won the championship in this race with a time of 9.93 seconds, and Su Bingtian won the silver medal with a time of 9.97 seconds.

But the situation is different now. Gatlin's arrival has made the game a foregone conclusion.

Apart from anything else, no one in Asia can run a better time than 9.89 seconds.

What's the point of comparing these? Just give out the awards.

Athletes from many countries were discouraged and felt that this competition was a foregone conclusion.

After the game, many people began to criticize South Korea's actions.

For a competition like the Asian Games, they actually naturalized world superstars. This is totally against the spirit of sports.

But Koreans don't see it that way, and they refute it with strong arguments.

Why don't you criticize other countries that have naturalized athletes in various competitions, but now you criticize South Korea?

Haven't you noticed that the French national football team is almost becoming a black team? Go and criticize them if you have the guts!

It has to be said that naturalization has become a trend, and many countries are doing so. Strictly speaking, the Korean approach is not a violation.

Everyone could only curse Gatlin out loud, but there was no way to stop him from participating.

However, this incident cast a shadow on Su Mo's road to winning the championship.

The current schedule is as follows: another 4X100m semi-final will start tomorrow night, and the 4X100m final will be the day after tomorrow. At that time, the Chinese team will definitely compete with the South Korean team.

The 200m semi-finals will be held the day after tomorrow, and the 200m final will be held the day after that.

Then in two days, there will be the 100-meter sprint race.

The last two days will feature the football and basketball finals respectively.

Then the Asian Games came to an end, which was already early October.

If Su Mo wants to get the ghost server, he must get all five gold medals.

However, Su Mo tested his own 9.85-meter performance. His fastest speed was about 9.90 seconds. Sometimes he couldn't even run this fast, but he could basically maintain it within seconds.

This is the result of Su Mo's speed, burst, strength, etc. being improved to 94. This result would have been enough to ensure a championship in Asia, but now it seems that there is little hope of winning.

"Two days, 4x100m finals, four days, 200m finals."

"Six days, the 100-meter final."

Su Mo calculated the time. He had to improve his speed and burst to 95 points within six days, no, four days, to have a hope of defeating Gatlin in the arena.

This task is extremely difficult and requires Su Mo to practice extra hard.

In order to complete this task, Su Mo specifically found the football and basketball teams.

The football team will play against Saudi Arabia next. Su Mo took the initiative to apply to be a substitute. If the team is in good condition, he will not need to play.

Su Mo also holds the same view on the next basketball game against Iraq.

This would reduce his playing time and exposure, but Su Mo insisted on doing so. He needed to conserve his energy and train quickly.

After communication, Yao Ming and Coach Cai both agreed to Su Mo's request, but if the team performs poorly, he still has to take to the field.

In the following time, Su Mo rarely appeared in public.

Every day he would go to the track and start his most insane training.

He called together a special training team to provide Su Mo with the most scientific training methods.

Su Mo no longer turns off the fifty-fold scroll. Except for sleeping, he keeps it on all the time. After all, any exercise is exercise, and he cannot miss any opportunity to improve his body.

Moreover, most of the time, Su Mo was doing strenuous exercise, almost pushing himself to the limit.

Speed ​​training and explosive power training were performed in turns, and his diligence surprised the team members in charge of the training.

Sometimes when Su Mo practiced, he could hardly lift his chopsticks when it was time to eat, and he fell asleep immediately at night.

Fortunately, his long-term exercise habit has allowed his body to hold on.

Despite this, it is not easy to upgrade the physical fitness of 94 points to 95 points. Even with the fifty-fold scroll, Su Mo still could not reach 95 points after two days of hard training.

But after this afternoon, he dared not overexert himself because tonight was the 4X100m final.

This event is favored by countless Chinese people, and this gold medal is almost equivalent to the men's team gold medal in gymnastics.

In the afternoon, Su Mo practiced baton handover coordination with his teammates, and then prepared to participate in the competition.

In the evening, the drama finally kicked off on the track and field field.

Before the competition started, Coach Luo of the track and field team and some officials from the General Administration came to visit the athletes.

To other athletes, these officials encourage and cheer them on because they are in charge of these athletes.

But towards Su Mo, the officials seemed much more approachable, because Su Mo was not only an athlete, he was also an entrepreneur and a super rich man.

These officials also knew that they could not treat Su Mo the same way as they would an athlete, as he was a special person within the Asian Games delegation.

Coach Luo came to Su Mo and gave him the final instructions.

"You'll be running the fourth leg today. Try to take advantage of your speed. You might face off against Gatlin. Our teammates will try to create an advantage for you."

Su Mo nodded slightly. He was not fighting alone. He had many excellent teammates.

"Also, be careful of the Japanese team, they are also very strong."

Su Mo understood this very well. Although the South Korean team shamelessly naturalized Gatlin, there was only one Gatlin after all.

In this event, China's biggest rival is the Japanese team.

Coach Luo gave some more instructions to the others, and then the whole team came on the court.

Soon, the live broadcast of the game began.

Han Dazui stood at the side of the runway and began to explain with the photographer.

"Dear audience, the highly anticipated men's 4x100m relay is about to begin. Previously, the strongest team in Asia for this event was Japan."

"Today, the Japanese team also sent their strongest lineup to compete. However, in this Asian Games, the South Korean team ranked first in the semifinals. Their final runner, Justin Gatlin, was incredibly strong, clearly surpassing the other runners by a wide margin. Therefore, they are in first place in the semifinals and are currently in lane five, while the Japanese team is in lane four."

"Today, the Chinese team is in lane seven. Our four runners are Zhang Peimeng (first runner), Xie Zhenye (second runner), Su Bingtian (third runner), and Su Mo (fourth runner)."

"Su Mo is a very talented athlete in the 100 meters. I believe many of you have watched the Chengdu competition. Last year, Su Mo ran under ten seconds, and this year, his strength has reached a new level. We can look forward to Su Mo's performance in the fourth leg."

"Also, our third leg is an advantage. Su Bingtian's cornering is world-class. I hope he can establish his advantage in this leg."

"The game is about to begin, let's turn our attention back to the scene."

Su Mo stood in the fourth leg, with Japanese players and the naturalized Korean athlete Gatlin beside him.

Gatlin was beside Su Mo, chewing gum, wearing a thick gold necklace around his neck, and kept talking to Su Mo.

"Su! Do you know why I came here? Someone invited me here and gave me 30 million US dollars to temporarily obtain Korean citizenship."

"After this Asian Games, I will return to our beautiful country. My purpose in coming here is to defeat you!"

"Although your strength is good, it's only good enough to show off in Asia. In our country, your level is not even worth ranking. There is no place for you on the 100-meter track..."

He was still chattering here, but Su Mo ignored him completely. The game over there had already started.

Zhang Peimeng's first runner ranked in the top three, which is pretty good.

Xie Zhenye's second runner had some trouble and fell to fifth place.

But when it came to Su Bingtian's stick, it was really powerful. The Crescent Moon Blade soared and ran all the way, rushing to the first position and almost two body lengths ahead of the second-placed Japanese team and the third-placed South Korean team.

Su Mo had already started to accelerate in advance. When Su Bingtian's speed reached its fastest, he took the baton from his hand, and then began to use all his strength and rushed straight to the finish line!

Behind him, Gatlin is catching up! (End of this chapter)
