Before the finish line,

Yang Zuyao felt all the fatigue and heaviness filled his whole body.

He opened his mouth wide and gasped violently. The results and results had settled. He looked at the place where the results were shown with regret.

It's still a little worse. I didn't have enough savings in the first half of the year, and the distance I was pulled by the opponent was too large! If I could get another ten meters, I might be able to completely surpass Crawford, but after all, I lost!

He was always in a very calm mood before and during the game. However, after the results were really out, although he had expected it, he still felt great regret and loss. Moreover, he felt even more ashamed.

Looking at the big screen on the scene blankly, Yang Zuyao's thoughts fluctuated particularly violently, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red. He reached out and wiped his face hard, but the feeling of the itchy waterline on his face slipping became more obvious, and his eyes became redder.

"Xiao Yang!"

A familiar call made Yang Zuyao shudder instantly, and turned around and looked at the place where the sound came.

"Coach~"

With a gentle call, Yang Zuyao's fatigue seemed to disappear in an instant. Suddenly, he rushed towards the baffle on the sidelines with big strides.

It was already the last game of today. Therefore, after the game, the referees and staff did not stop some people outside the game from approaching the field. At this time, media personnel from various countries and athletes who were already eager to try had already stepped into the field from behind the billboards on the sidelines.

Seeing Yang Zuyao rushing towards them, the media reporters were restless. Chinese reporters, including many foreign reporters, hurriedly met. Before the people were approaching, they had already made various equipment to greet them.

"Yang..."

“!%#￥”

Yang Zuyao had no concerns about the people who wanted to interview him. He lined up the people blocking the road slightly. He rushed to the side of the baffle, took a step forward, and walked in front of the man.

"Coach~I..."

“Run well!”

Lin Mu smiled and patted Yang Zuyao on the shoulder. He had seen athletes crying many times in the stadium, including himself, Yang Zuyao and Zhao Lin, but usually the mood was triggered when they were victorious. But at this moment, he knew that it was not just that.

"I'm sorry, coach, I didn't practice well, and I didn't run well!"

Yang Zuyao raised his head and looked at Lin Mu, his voice trembling slightly.

Crystal water was shining in his red eyes. What Lin Mu saw from Yang Zuyao was a bit stubborn and unwilling, and a shame like regret.

Listening to Yang Zuyao's words, Lin Mu smiled softly.

Many people in the team said that they are strange and special masters and apprentices. Lin Mu usually laughed at him when he heard this. It was probably because he was pragmatic but had a high sense of contradiction.

For example, at this moment, people who see it may think that what Yang Zuyao left behind is joy and tears of excitement, which is the joy and excitement of being able to break the Asian record and win the Olympic medal. But he knows that there is joy, but excitement...

Lin Mu shook his head secretly. From Zhao Lin to Shen Huan to Yang Zuyao, what he could feel was his dissatisfaction with himself and his dissatisfaction with his achievements. Especially Yang Zuyao, the more than a month before and after the City Games, and the more than a month that took the initiative and passed, these were enough for Yang Zuyao to be shocked.

This is also the reason why he would come over on his own initiative. Moreover, he also decided. As long as he leads the team in the future, he will do this as long as he has time conditions. He hopes that he can appear in front of the athletes as soon as possible when the athletes walk off the field.

If you win, give them praise and blessings, if you lose, give them encouragement and comfort!

In fact, when it comes to losing at this moment, it is a bit pretentious. Those who can enter the top three in the Olympic Games should not be explained by the word "loss". What's more, China, which has always been weak in track and field, people will only say that it is a breakthrough and glory.

However, after all, they still lost. The runner-up and third place are often the biggest losers in the field. More importantly, because of the memories of the past, Lin Mu infused them with some ideas from the beginning, and they have always adhered to the pursuit of the highest honor and higher results.

Zhao Lin won the silver medal before, lost, and cried, because these touches also made Lin Mu go from a person with only the memory of an athlete to a real athlete. It was also from that time that he felt that he could do more.

"It's really good to run. As for the past, don't look back after you come. The past is experience and insight, and it's not something that makes you regret it!"

Yang Zuyao's words made Lin Mu very pleased, but it had not changed. Before coming, he thought about Yang Zuyao's reaction. He was sure that Yang Zuyao would be like this, but he had not been in person. Now that the facts come out, he felt that everything he did was worth it. He could still maintain a sincere sports heart without being tired of the Vajra and prosperous scenery.

He photographed this "apprentice" who was only two years apart from his age. Lin Mu did not say anything more comforting. In fact, standing here was the greatest comfort.

"But...because..."

Yang Zuyao was unwilling to accept it and even regretted it, but he didn't know how to express his feelings at this moment. If he had thought more than a year ago, he might have been extremely excited even if he squeezed into the semi-finals of the Olympics.

But now, after winning the silver medal, 19 seconds, 95 seconds, the first person in Asia to run into 20 seconds in 200 meters, the once unattainable "dream" realized, but he only felt dissatisfied and disappointed with himself.

Because, he felt that he could have done better. He felt sorry for a lot of people, the coach in the team, himself, and the one in front of him seemed to always appear in front of him when he needed it most.

"Yang Zuyao~Yang Zuyao~ Can you accept our interview..."

"Guide Lin, you..."

At this moment, the reporters chasing us rushed towards Lin Mu and the others, and the spotlight never stopped flashing.

"Don't hurry, wait ~"

Lin Mu waved his hand, sootheed the restless crowd, and then turned over Yang Zuyao's shoulder to face the direction of the crowd: "You have done what you understand, and I have to do the next step. Now, you are the runner-up of the Olympics, accept your honor, and express your gratitude to those who support us behind you..."

...

"Yusan, we're back!"

In one corner of the stands, a strong black man with a big belly patted the black boy beside him, and put himself in his ear and shouted.

"Coach Mills, I...I can at least win the silver medal!"

Staring at the finish line with eyes fixed on the finish line, looking at the athletes who were being interviewed by reporters, the boy seemed a little envious and unwilling to accept his words.

"Yes, Usain, you can at least win the silver medal!"

Looking at the boy beside him, Mills smiled and echoed.

Today he forced his beloved disciple here with his number one disciple. The young man was reluctant before. Now, looking at the fire and desires that were coming out of his eyes, Mills was very satisfied.

I entered the professional system in the first year. When I participated in the Olympics for the first time, I was eliminated due to injury and preliminaries, and I said goodbye to the stage in advance. I regret it, I don’t have to say that I am losing myself. What’s more, I have been winning all the way to the current teenagers since I was a child.

In the past two days, the boy who has always been hip-hop optimistic and likes to play and make fun seem a little low, but in Mills's opinion, these lows are too wrong and not enough. Therefore, Mills thought of this.

In the world, everyone who enters professional sports may have different original goals, but as long as the person who has gone down, his desire for victory and honor will inevitably be indispensable.

He has always been quite satisfied with the progress of the boy, and his grades have been rising all the way, and he is also very satisfied with the boy's pursuit of victory. However, he still feels that the boy lacks something. He lacks the determination to win desperately, and the persistence of treating his career as a career. He feels that the boy needs more encouragement, stimulation, and more temptation.

Yes, temptation, the word may not be very good, but it is very real and effective.

Just like Brazil, the kingdom of football, Jamaica can be called the kingdom of track and field. Just like in Brazil, football changes life, there are countless young people in Jamaica who want to use running to change their lives every year.

Those with talent and those without talent will dive in as long as they have a chance to change their destiny, they will dive in and work hard for it.

However, the boy I value most is a little...

"Coach, I can really win the silver medal! I've run 19.93 this year!"

Looking at his respected coach smiling and playing, the boy was a little annoyed and emphasized it seriously.

"Haha, Yusen, you can really win the silver medal! But..." After coach Mills smiled heartily, his expression was indeed much more restrained, and people seemed to be serious immediately.

"But, is the silver medal enough? Look at the American who won the gold medal, then look at the Chinese who won the silver medal and the one who ran third. Look at the people around them. Tomorrow, let's look at who are people talking about more?"

Following the direction of coach Mills' finger, the boy looked at the finish line again. The American standing in front of the timing card, dozens of people gathered around him and scrambled to the top. The other two...

"Boy, competitive sports are cruel. People will always pay more attention to the person who runs the fastest. The media will pay attention, the audience will pay attention, and businessmen around the world will hand them with checkbooks. Honors, money, status, everything... We are too small and too poor, and Jamaica's national champion is too weak..."

"Coach, I understand! I want to win the championship and the world championship!"

The boy didn't understand these cruelties very much, but he knew that money was very important. He remembered the debt his father owed and the several jobs his mother worked every day for him to enter the sports school.

"World Champion?! Your talent is OK, but now, you are not enough, you need more effort..." Mills smiled again after touching the boy's head.

"Let's go, you're 18 years old. When your injury recovers, your strength and endurance training will increase..."

"Ah?!" The boy was a little confused. He thought of the usual training and then the possible increase. He felt a little distressed.

But in a moment of thought, he was suppressed by his mind again.

"But, for the championship, for the money... for the mother..."

...

"...Good evening everyone, welcome to watch today's direct access to Athens. I am the host... Today is August 27, and the Athens Olympics has entered the final stage... First of all, let's review what exciting events were yesterday. In terms of track and field, the men's 200m competition, and Chinese sprinter Yang Zuyao achieved another success..."

On the evening of August 27, China.

After people habitually watched CCTV's joint news, they locked in CCTV's fifth set. After the Olympics began, as long as the audience who came to China for more than 10 days were accustomed to this.

The show is over. Maybe go to bed early, set an alarm clock, or maybe find three or five friends to gather together and wait for the competition to begin.

This is even more true today. Tomorrow is the weekend. The audience who can't stay up late in life and work usually has let go of time today. Moreover, there are not many days for the Olympic Games. As the end is approaching, the final competitions of major events will be staged one after another, and team competitions will officially enter the final stage. In particular, the recently extremely encouraging track and field events are particularly exciting.

"...In the last time of the show, let's take a look at what exciting competitions will be in the major competitions today... First, let's take a look at the track and field events...

...The Olympic track and field events have entered the ninth competition day... At 1:10 am tomorrow, Yanjing time, the men's 4*100m relay competition will be held. The men's relay team composed of Chinese players Zhao Lin, Yang Zuyao, Chen Jianhai, Shen Huan, He Jun and others will compete in the other 15 other national relay teams in the world that have performed best in recent years.

This is the second time that the Chinese men's sprint relay team has participated in a world-class competition. Last year's Paris World Track and Field Championships, the first time that the Chinese team participated in the competition was to break the Asian record. This Olympics is the second time that the Chinese team has shown it to the world. After making a comprehensive breakthrough in a single event, we look forward to...

At 2:30 am, in the final of the men's 110-meter hurdles, Chinese player Liu Xiang will participate in this competition. He is the world youth record holder and Asian record holder. He will make an impact on the ranking of this competition...

At 2:35 am, the men's 200m competition award ceremony. In this event, Chinese athlete Yang Zuyao won a silver medal in yesterday's competition, and the five-star red flag will rise at the Olympic main stadium for the third time...

At 2:50 am, the women's 10,000-meter long-distance race final, Chinese athletes Sun Yingjie, Xing Na..."

As the host introduced one by one, he also analyzed the format of each competition in which Chinese contestants participated. This made the hearts of the audience who watched the program gradually increase.

There are quite a lot of exciting competitions today, especially the track and field competitions. When it comes to the few games to be broadcast, it seems that the Chinese players are very competitive, which makes them feel hot.

The first opening scene is the men's 4*100-meter relay race, which is a team competition in track and field events. It has always been regarded as the overall performance of a country's sprinting strength. Although its absolute influence is not as high as a 100-meter single event, its attention will not be low.

The team participating are the sixteen countries with the best results in the world, and the players participating are the top athletes in the country, which are even more intense and exciting than individual events.

All the audience know that the four players that China will participate in the Olympics are all athletes who participate in the 100-meter and 200-meter Olympics. Overall, they seem to have considerable competitiveness, which makes people look forward to it.

Chatting, looking for activities, waiting and waiting, time seems to pass particularly slowly, making people feel a little anxious, and even some of the ongoing entertainment activities seem a little careless.

From time to time, I watched the TV set until the TV screen appeared at the Athens Olympic Stadium. When the familiar commentary sounded, countless people immediately put down what they were doing and their spirits were instantly awakened.

At 1:10 am on August 28, 2004, Yanjing time, the preliminaries of the men's 4*100m track and field competition of the 28th Olympic Games began!
Chapter completed!
