Chapter 287 Post-match Public Opinion

When Qiu Wen's results came out, the audience who had been excited were momentarily stunned before coming to their senses. Among these spectators, some were purely excited about the result and Qiu Wen winning a medal, some were momentarily reminded of Zhang Ziyi's stop at the semi-finals and felt mixed emotions, and some were veteran viewers like Huang Yilun, who had been following this event for many years.

At the moment when Qiu Wen secured the medal, this group of veteran track and field enthusiasts instinctively cheered in excitement. However, upon seeing Qiu Wen's final result clearly, they suddenly felt a sense of panic.

Is this real?

Is Qiu Wen's result of 44.49 seconds actually real?

Just looking at the number 44.49, some of the veteran track and field enthusiasts felt as if they were in a precarious position, fearing that they were in a dream and that the whole thing would collapse when they woke up.

From 2018 to the present, in just three short years, domestic track and field enthusiasts seemed to have boarded a high-speed racing car, witnessing the rapid advancement of China's 400-meter sprint project at an accelerated pace.

There was a time when the national record of 45.25 seconds loomed over the heads of Chinese track and field enthusiasts. They had been anticipating for over a decade for Zhang Ziyi to break that record.

Since then, China's 400-meter sprint record was no longer an insurmountable mountain. It seemed to have turned into an ordinary small slope, and Zhang Ziyi effortlessly crossed it step by step.

And in this Olympic arena, the two strongest in the 400-meter sprint in China seemed to have completed a ceremonial handover in the Olympic competition, and then the relay baton of the slope was passed from Zhang Ziyi's hands to Qiu Wen's.

Before the Olympics, the national record was set by Zhang Ziyi at the Diamond League sub-station with 44.76 seconds. But in just the semifinals and finals of the Olympics, China's 400-meter sprint record jumped from 44.76 seconds to 44.59, 44.57, and then to today's 44.49 seconds.

Looking back, China's 400-meter sprint record was broken from 45.25 seconds at the Asian Six-Country Athletics Championships, to the current 44.49 seconds.

In less than two years, the 400-meter sprint record in China has undergone earth-shattering changes.

And all of this is thanks to Zhang Ziyi, to Qiu Wen, to...

The live camera seemed to understand the thoughts of countless people at that moment. As all the track and field enthusiasts thought of that name in their hearts, the live camera at the scene coincidentally turned to the Chinese athlete's seat, focusing on one of the young men who was standing and applauding with a smile.

It was Su Bai.

"There is no doubt that the team of the 400-meter sprint project is the undisputed miracle squad within the Chinese track and field team! And the one who has created this miracle in just a few years is this young man standing in the audience seat at this moment!"

"Who could believe that this legendary coach of the Chinese track and field team is only 25 years old this year, and the miracle he has created is enough to honor him for a lifetime!

In the sports channel's live broadcast room, Shao Minyi and Li Sen couldn't help but sigh when they saw Su Bai appear on the screen. But at the same time as they were sighing, they both mentioned Su Bai's age and were equally stunned.
