    “…Although the U.S. team suffered a major setback in the men’s 4×100-meter relay race, on the last day of the competition, in the final men’s 4×400-meter relay race, the U.S. team once again won When they arrived at the champions, they defended their dignity as the hegemons of world track and field... The performance is over, and every day for the past 9 days has had a different mood, anticipation, anxiety, disappointment, envy, nostalgia, excitement, helplessness, moved, calm.

    I was so calm on the last day. The Finns organized a successful competition. From the professionalism of the opening ceremony to the wonderful idea of ​​a time shuttle, we all felt their intentions. The level of the event broadcast is also very high, focusing on the content of the check-in office and the warm-up venue, which can better restore the original face of the project. At present, the center of world track and field is still in Europe. The centuries-old tradition enables the audience here to watch the competition. The organizers know what the athletes, spectators, and media need and think, and of course, sophisticated packaging. This is based on their competitive high Level. The two promote each other, a virtuous circle.

    I have been looking forward to it endlessly. This is the first time I broadcast the World Championships, and it is the first time I have been in the track and field in 5 years. Looking forward to the world's highest level of peak duels in each project, looking forward to getting rid of the torment of the league without national emotions, feeling the passion of different races and ethnic groups colliding, and witnessing human beings break through one limit after another.

    The most touching thing to me is still our own athletes, Su Zu, Liu Yangyu, Xing Huina, the boys of the relay team, their performance in this World Championship has been impeccable. Su Zu has won the men's 100m and 200m double championships. I can't help myself. I've never had a Chinese athlete, an Asian athlete has won the world championship sprint championship, and if he wins two, Su Zu is already well-deserved. The king of sprinting. This is also the only two gold medals of the Chinese team in this World Championship..."

    At 22:00 Helsinki time on August 14th, after the men's 4×400m race, the on-site commentator Yang Jian delivered a touching closing speech.

    Su Zu and others who watched the last game at the scene stood up and applauded. On the last day of the game, there was no Chinese team, but seeing the performances of athletes from other countries on the scene still made people excited.

    The long period of rain and rain in this World Championships made the results generally not very satisfactory, but the starry sky in Helsinki was still brilliant.
