On August 1, 2021, Beijing time, on the day of the Founding Day, Chinese flyer Su Bingtian used his performance to brush up the social media, shocking China and foreign countries - in the men's 100 meters semifinals of the Tokyo Olympic Games, Su Shen turned his body into a lightning bolt, ran out of 9.83 seconds, and pressed the American star Baker with an advantage of 0.002 seconds to successfully advance to the final. Such achievements are inseparable from the beautiful pressure line at the end, which also caused foreign media to praise. Su Bingtian, as the first Chinese to advance to the 100-meter final, also fulfilled the dream of Liu Changchun, the first person in China's Olympic Games, after 89 years.
What is the concept of 9 seconds 83? Before Bolt came out to rewrite the 100-meter world record to 9.58 seconds, American star Morris Green was the only one who could run into 9.8 seconds, so Su Bingtian's 9.83 seconds was placed in the pre-Bolt era, which could compete for Olympic gold medals with Carl Wang, Bailey, Burrell and other famous players!
Su Shen, who created a personal best, is already a blockbuster. When the 100-meter preliminary round ran out of 10.05 seconds to easily qualify, Su Bingtian half-jokingly said in front of the camera: "The specific results of the preliminary round are not important, mainly to try the venue and foot feeling, I did not use my full strength." "For me, to be able to get to the final is to complete the task. If you can break through the 10-second mark, you should be able to advance to the final. It can be seen that Su Bingtian's assessment of his own strength is very in place and easy to retract, but everyone did not think that the 32-year-old Su Shen's so-called "breakthrough 10-second mark" is directly approaching the meaning of the 9 meter 8 mark!
People who are familiar with Su Bingtian know that Su Shen's starting and the first 30 meters are the world's top, no one can match; in the middle, he can also sit on an equal footing with all the major players and be no less than the big players; the real test of Su Shen is the final sprint. During the preliminaries, he made up a paragraph for his "looking back at the moon": "He chased me too tightly, I looked at him, signaled him not to chase me, give some face."
In the semi-finals, Su Bingtian, who was full of firepower, did not release water again, seeing that Baker was about to catch up, Su Shen made the final pressure line to the extreme! This hard press, casting personal best results, but also broke the monopoly of European and American Jamaican athletes for many years, and sent themselves to the hot search. Foreign media also rushed to report, praising Su Shen's pressure line. The official number of the NBC reporting on the Tokyo Olympics exclaimed: "What a line press!" The official number of the CBC reported: "Su Bingtian's pressure line squeezed out the semi-final top spot of American athlete Ronnie Baker!" ”
Su Bingtian was able to create such brilliant achievements on such a special day as today, as if there was providence in the underworld, which can be called a kind of reincarnation. In 1908, Tianjin Youth magazine asked the Chinese people three times: When will China be able to send athletes to participate in the Olympic Games? When will our athletes get an Olympic gold medal? When will our country host the Olympics? At that time, the countries and peoples who were struggling to return could not give answers.
With the first question, Liu Changchun, the first Olympic person in China, appeared in the tenth Olympic Games held in Los Angeles in 1932, participating in the men's 100 meters. However, after 22 days of turbulence at sea, he was unable to give the answer to the second question. In the same year, Japan's Takayoshi Yoshioka ran to the men's 100 meters final, becoming the first Asian athlete to advance to the final. But since entering the men's 100 meters in 1968 to use electronic timing, no Asian athletes have been able to break the monopoly to advance to the 100 meters final, and Su Shen has broken the monopoly of nearly half a century!
Liu Changchun's son, Liu Hongtu, recalled his father's lifelong wish that China would win a gold medal, especially in the men's 100 meters event, and that China would host an Olympic Games. Today, Xu Haifeng's Olympic first gold in 1984 and the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games have been achieved, which is a historic breakthrough in the men's 100 meters, and there is no doubt that Su Bingtian is very close.
In the next final, I hope that Su Shen can continue to work hard and challenge himself! Win, let's go crazy together! In the man's 100 meters, which has always been regarded as the "non-yellow field", a breakthrough of zero has been achieved, allowing the world to witness China's speed once again!
