Chapter 507 The Fourth World Record

The American player Spielman crossed the finish line third, but in fact he was much slower than Zhang Guan and Bolt, and he was left behind by a large distance.

"These two are so fast!" Spearman has already played his best level, but compared with Zhang Guan and Bolt, he is still far behind.

"Just now Zhang Guan should be the first to cross the line. He seems to have surpassed Bolt at the last moment. Zhang Guan is worthy of the title of the king of track and field. Even though this is Bolt's best project, Zhang Guan finally won I don’t know what their final results will be.” Spielman looked at the idea display on the sidelines, and then showed a horrified expression.

"19.17 seconds! 19.19 seconds to go! Oh my god, they both ran under 19.20 seconds! Another world record!"

Spearman's final score was 19.76 seconds, so when Spearman crossed the finish line, the electronic display on the sidelines had not yet shown the final score. But after the results came out, the fanatical atmosphere on the scene once again reached a new level.

"19.17 seconds! Zhang Guan ran 19.17 seconds. He broke the world record of 19.30 seconds held by himself and improved the world record by 0.13 seconds. He also broke the Olympic record of 19.32 seconds held by Michael Johnson. Record!" the narrator yelled.

However, the following Olympic records were directly ignored by everyone. Just the four words "world record" can already ignite everyone's enthusiasm.

"Zhang Guan broke the world record again, which one is this?"

"It's the fourth! 100 meters, long jump, 1500 meters, and now it's 200 meters. This is Zhang Guan's fourth world record!"

"So far, Zhang Guan has participated in the finals of four track and field events, and in these four events, he has broken the world record!"

"It's unbelievable! Zhang Guan is so strong! There is no one before, and there will be no one in the future! He deserves the title of world track and field king."

"19.17 seconds! I remember that two years ago, some people said that Johnson's world record of 19.32 seconds was unshakable, but now Zhang Guan is 0.15 seconds faster than him."

"It's such a pity for Bolt. He also ran 19.19 seconds, which also surpassed the original world record of 19.30 seconds held by Zhang Guan. If Zhang Guan was not faster, Bolt would have become the one who broke the world record." The record holder!"

"This seems to be a repeat of history in the 100-meter sprint final. In the 100-meter final, Bolt also broke Zhang Guan's original world record, but was overwhelmed by Zhang Guan and could only be runner-up. Unexpectedly, in the 200-meter The same is true in the rice event, Bolt was still crushed by Zhang Guan, and he could only be the runner-up. This really echoes the old saying, if you are born, you will be bright!"

"Yes, I also think Bolt is the most tragic figure in this Olympic Games. He broke the world record twice, but lost to Zhang Guan both times. He is also an excellent athlete. I I even feel that this is a bit too cruel for him."

"Don't forget that it's the same at 1500 meters. Didn't Ramzi break the original world record? But he still lost to Zhang Guan! I think Zhang Guan can be called the 'world record' killer."

While applauding Zhang Guan, people also felt sorry for Bolt, especially when the camera showed Bolt and he was kneeling on the ground and weeping bitterly, which won the sympathy of many people.

Competitive sports are so cruel. Perhaps athletes can be called winners as long as they surpass themselves, but there is only one champion.

Finally, Bolt still controlled his emotions. He stood up and looked at the electronic monitor on the sidelines.

"19.17 seconds! A new world record! Zhang Guan broke the world record again!" Bolt was not surprised, because he could feel that Zhang Guan's speed definitely exceeded the world record of 19.30 seconds.

"My time was 19.19 seconds, and I was able to run within 19.20 seconds. I have performed perfectly and ran to my highest level, but I am still 0.02 seconds slower than Zhang Guan!"

Bolt sighed helplessly. Although it was only 0.02 seconds slower, Bolt knew that this 0.02 seconds might be a gap that he would never be able to cross in his entire life. This is not a contest beyond 20 seconds. More practice can improve the score by 0.1 seconds. At their level of contest, every 0.01 second improvement is an impossible thing. This is not something that can be solved by training. The thing is, if an athlete at this level wants to improve their performance by 0.01 seconds, they need the right time, place and people, excellent condition, super-level performance, and even luck against the sky.

"I lost the 100-meter sprint. I can still say that it is not my main event, but I still lost the 200-meter sprint. This time I can't find any reason. This is the gap in strength. I can finally understand now Powell is in a good mood." At this moment, Bolt thought of his predecessor Powell, the Powell who no longer had the courage to challenge Zhang Guan and was willing to be the "second in the world".

"Facing such a formidable opponent, it's really hard to summon up the courage to challenge!" Bolt sighed silently in his heart.

...

"World record, Zhang Guan broke the world record again! Incredible, incredible, if someone asks me who is the greatest athlete of this century, I will tell him the name——Zhang Guan!" The language of praise, by the way, congratulations to Spearman for winning a bronze medal for the US team.

At the same time, in Europe, in Africa, in South America, and in Australia, Zhang Guan's name was constantly mentioned by people. This name, which everyone is already very familiar with, did another thing that shocked everyone. On the Internet, where information spreads fastest, the name of "Zhang Guan" once again became the most popular search term.

Some people are happy and some are sad. The Chinese audience is celebrating at this moment, but the Jamaican audience is extremely disappointed.

Bolt, regarded as an idol and a hero by Jamaicans, an athlete with high expectations before the game, eventually lost in the event he was best at, and lost at the last minute.

In the Jamaican TV studio, Bolt's father has stopped talking. 20 seconds ago, he was still in high spirits, but now. It can be seen from his expression that he is already very disappointed, even sad. This huge contrast also reflects his bad mood at this moment.

But when you think about it carefully, Bolt's father didn't say anything big. Bolt did run within 19.30 seconds, and even ran within 19.20 seconds. This is exactly the same as what Bolt's father said. Under such circumstances, in an event like the 200-meter sprint, a result that is 0.1 seconds faster than the world record will inevitably win the final championship, which is why Bolt's father is confident.

But an accident happened. Bolt was much faster than Zhang Guan two years ago, and Zhang Guan was also much faster than himself two years ago.

This is life, which is always full of countless accidents and coincidences. No one knows what will happen in the next moment, but no one will worry about the unknown ahead, because there is no road ahead, only walking, Only then will it become the road, the only road that belongs to everyone...

The second chapter was delivered, and the previous chapter was posted out of feelings, but it was still hacked. I was indeed forced to write for a few cents a chapter subscription, but I was worried about that. But there are some things, how can there be no emotion in my heart? This is the land where I was born and raised, I love her, that's enough...
