All-round Athlete

Chapter 487 Unsatisfied (Part 2)

The photographers at the scene rushed into the arena regardless of the obstruction of the staff, rushed to Zhang Guan's side, and pointed all kinds of long guns, short cannons and flashlights at Zhang Guan. The referee had to suspend the game, waiting for the security guard to drive the reporters away.

In the preparation area of ​​the athletes, the surprised eyes were mixed with exclamations one after another.

"World record, Zhang Guan really did it, he broke the world record!"

"Unbelievable! I really never thought that someone would break the world record in the long jump. From the day I started practicing long jump, I was told that there is no one in this world who can reach the height of Mike Powell. Really no Thinking that today, someone surpassed Mike Powell and set a new world record!"

"I actually witnessed the birth of a new world record! Just now, right under my nose, a new world record! This Olympic Games is definitely an experience I will never forget. Maybe in the future, I can show my The children boasted that when Zhang Guan broke the world record in the long jump, I was there!"

All eyes were on Zhang Guan, and everyone had forgotten about Saladino who had just jumped out of personal bests.

Saladino, on the other hand, looked devastated. He looked at the results on the monitor and the traces left in the sand pool, and remained silent for a long time.

"A world record! It's really a world record! Did Zhang Guan break the world record? Did he really break the direct record? How powerful is he? Strong enough to match Mike Powell back then? Why did the previous game He has never shown this kind of strength? Or is this the true strength of Zhang Guan?"

One question after another popped up in Saladino's mind. There was only one thing Saladino could confirm, and that was Zhang Guan's strength, which he would never be able to touch.

"World record, I will never be able to reach that height in my life." Saladino suddenly felt a pang of sadness in his heart. He wanted to seek revenge from Zhang Guan. He wanted to prove that he was the strongest long jumper in the world. However, these wishes disappeared when Zhang Guan set a new world record. From now on, unless he also has the strength to break the world record, he will always be a weakling when facing Zhang Guan.

...

In the ESPN studio, the two commentators generously praised Zhang Guan.

"Zhang Guan, he did it! He succeeded! He broke the world record! Now we have to add another title in front of Zhang Guan's name, that is, the person who jumped the farthest in the world! 8.96 meters, although it is faster than before Mike Powell's world record is only one centimeter more, but this one centimeter has made us wait for a full 17 years." The ESPN commentator said.

Another person went on to say: "Zhang Guan is worthy of being the strongest track and field athlete in the world. He broke the men's 100-meter world record two days ago, and today, he broke the men's long jump world record, and his result They are all so amazing, this is truly unprecedented and unprecedented! To be honest, Zhang Guan reminds me of the track and field superstar Carl Lewis, who was also a sprinter and long jumper."

"However, Carl Lewis still lost to Mike Powell back then. Mike Powell's 8.95-meter score was made in front of Lewis. But today, Zhang Guan surpassed Powell's 8.95-meter score. It is a pity that the two of them Individuals are not in the same era, otherwise it will definitely bring us an extremely exciting contest."

At this time, Carl Lewis, who the two commentators were talking about, was also watching the game in front of the TV.

"8.96 meters, the world record in the long jump has been broken!" Carl Lewis whispered, and fell into the memory at the same time.

It was August 30, 1991. At the National Stadium in Tokyo, Carl Lewis jumped 8.91 meters. At that time, Carl Lewis even felt that he had won the championship, but a few minutes later, Powell jumped out. 8.95 meters, not only bought the championship from Lewis, but also broke the world record for long jump.

The mention of Lewis' name on the TV brought the legendary flying man back from memory to reality. He looked at the picture being played back on the TV, but suddenly a pleasant smile appeared on his face.

"17 years ago, I failed to challenge Powell. At that time, people said that it was impossible for a sprinter and long jumper to compete with a pure long jumper. But today, Zhang Guan's challenge has succeeded. He is also a sprinter. He is also a long jump player, and he has more events than me! Hehe, I think Powell should be in a bad mood now, he has kept the world record for 17 years, and it has finally been broken!"

Mike Powell's mood at this time can't be said to be so bad, but he is definitely confused.

He knows that any world record will not be kept forever. He has thought many times that his world record will be broken, but when the world record he holds is really broken, he suddenly has a special feeling in his heart. The sore feeling, that feeling, as if his children who have raised him for 17 years are leaving him at this moment. Resentment, confusion, helplessness, entanglement... all kinds of strange emotions mixed together, which made him even feel breathless.

"The world record will eventually be broken." Mike Powell comforted himself.

At this moment, Powell couldn't help but think of two years ago, when he was the long jump coach of the Saudi Arabian team, he witnessed the rise of Zhang Guan, but he would never have imagined that in the Olympic Games two years later, Zhang Guan would become the one who broke the world record people!

...

At the scene and in the auditorium, countless people had tears in their eyes. Today’s game was indeed too exciting. From the very beginning, Zhang Guan and Saladino overtook each other, which marked that this game was destined to be extraordinary. , the two players continued to set new best results one after another until Zhang Guan broke the Olympic record. And now Zhang Guan broke the world record again, as if it was a successful conclusion to this exciting competition.

In an Olympic game, a new world champion will be born, and a world record will also appear, and the player who broke the world record and won the championship is still a local athlete. This is indeed the most perfect ending.

Zhang Guan raised his arms high, seemingly celebrating, but in fact, he was not satisfied.

"Now it is 8.96 meters, and I still have a chance to try jumping!" Zhang Guan looked back at the sand pool, and he decided to go further.
