The first and second chapter of the Chinese Sportsman text volume, the referee announced the results of American players Eddie Tolan and Ralph Metcalf. They collided with the line at the same time, and the final results were both 10.3 seconds. However, the referee determined that Eddie Tolan was 2.5 cm ahead, so Eddie Tolan was second and Ralph Metcalf was third.

Neither of these two cared about their results. Second or third things were all irrelevant. Their attention was still at Chen Qiang's 10 seconds 2 world record!

"10 seconds 2, a new world record! That Chinese can actually run so fast! He can actually break the world record!"

Both of them looked shocked. They were both world-class athletes and knew how difficult it was to set a world record in the competition. At least neither of them was confident that they could do this.

But Chen Qiang did it. A Chinese broke the world record of a 100-meter sprint. At this time, the mood of these two people is no longer something that can be described as "surprise". At this time, the two people's thinking is in a state of "short circuit".

German player Arthur Jonas scored 10.4 seconds, American player George Simpson and South African player Danny Joubert scored 10.5 seconds and 10.6 seconds respectively. Their results were both very good, but at this time their good results were overshadowed by the light of the world record.

In the area where coaches and athletes were waiting, everyone looked in the direction of the Canadian team, looking at someone, that was the former 100-meter sprint Passey Williams.

Before this game, Pasey Williams was still the world record holder, but after one game, the world record held by Pasey Williams had been broken, and the halo of "the fastest in the world" was also taken away by Chen Qiang.

Pasey Williams stayed for more than a minute before he recovered.

"My world record is broken?" Pasey Williams murmured to himself.

A world record is used to be broken from the day it was born. Patsy Williams also knew that the world record he created would be broken sooner or later, and he had already made this mental preparation. He even had a premonition that his world record would be broken in this Olympics.

However, when this day really came, Patsy Williams still felt sad, like a child who was taken away by a school bully's favorite toy, but had nowhere to tell.

After a long time, Patsy Williams took a deep breath and began to accept what was happening in front of him.

"This Chinese is the one who was in the same group as me in the preliminary round! At that time, I felt that I was careless for a moment and was taken advantage of by this Chinese, so I was eliminated. I didn't expect that this Chinese was really higher than me. In that preliminary round, I was eliminated at all!"

...

When Chen Qiang was the first to cross the finish line, Yoshioka Ryude clenched his fists, and his body was even shaking faintly.

The person who was regarded as the biggest opponent of his life by Ryoto Yoshioka has won the Olympics championship and has reached the peak of the world. This is a stimulation and inspiration for Ryoto Yoshioka.

Looking at the scene of Chen Qiang hitting the line, Yoshioka Ryude even had a fantasy. The scene of himself crossing the finish line appeared in his mind, and the scene of himself standing on the highest podium of the Olympics.

At this moment, Takato Yoshioka seemed to have a new goal, a higher goal, that is, stand on the highest podium of the Olympic Games and hang the Olympic gold medal that symbolizes the world's highest sports honor.

Then, he heard the 10 second rating.

Takato Yoshioka was stunned for a while. His somewhat anxious English level made him think for a long time before he understood the number mentioned by the referee, and then he instantly realized that it was a new world record!

Shock! Unparalleled shock!

Immediately afterwards, his new goal that had just been born instantly turned into a bubble, and the newly ignited fire of struggle was instantly extinguished!

The 10-second world record once again defeated Takato Yoshioka's confidence.

The next second, Yoshioka Ryudo let go of his originally clenched fists and his emotions gradually calmed down.

In the eyes of Ryude Yoshioka, although Chen Qiang was very powerful, he was at most a steep mountain, and he could climb it even if he worked hard.

But now, Yoshioka Ryude suddenly realized that Chen Qiang was like Mount Everest, so far away. Just looking over will make the climbers lose their courage!

Ryude Yoshioka still understood that he would never surpass Chen Qiang in his life!

...

A Chinese won the championship in the 100-meter sprint event, which made the audience feel incredible, but what is even more incredible is still behind. The Chinese was not only the champion in the 100-meter sprint event, but also broke the world record!

The 10-second 2 result was announced, and a new world record was born. The audience all looked at Chen Qiang in amazement. Some people even began to doubt whether their ears were wrong!

One second, two seconds, three seconds... Until more than ten seconds passed, a crisp applause suddenly sounded from somewhere.

Immediately afterwards, applause spread rapidly throughout the stadium.

If a champion of a 100-meter sprint just shocked these American audiences, then the world record of 100-meter sprint obviously completely conquered the American audience at the scene.

Among these audiences, many people still discriminate against Chinese people, but they have no way to discriminate against a new world record. It is human nature to worship the strong. When the world record is in front of you, it doesn’t matter if you are a white, black or yellow person.

Competitive sports have always been like this. The strong are kings, and the victories are kings!

When Chen Qiang stood on the podium, applause resounded again throughout the audience.

Eddie Tolan, who won the second place, and Ralph Metcalf, who won the third place, barely squeezed out a smile. It was obvious that the two were still worried about not winning the gold medal.

There was a Chinese standing among the two Americans. The scene looked a bit abrupt. This was a scene that had never happened in the Olympics. However, Chen Qiang felt that such a scene would definitely appear in the future and Americans would gradually get used to it.

Not far away, Nanbu Zhongping looked at this scene and saw the golden Olympic gold medal hanging around Chen Qiang's neck.

"I really didn't expect that Chen Qiang would win the Olympic gold medal one step earlier than me. I have to work hard in the long jump competition tomorrow. I have to do my best to win the Olympic gold medal!" Nanbu Tadhipei thought to himself.

As the world record holder of long jump, Nanbu Chukai participated in the Olympics, and his goal is of course to win a gold medal!

There is no competition in Nanbu Chukai today. The long jump event he participated in will be held tomorrow.

Nanbu Chukai came to the competition venue today, mainly for two purposes. The first is to confirm before the competition. He has to attend the venue in person, submit his identity documents, and confirm to the organizer that he will participate in the long jump competition tomorrow. The second purpose is to get the list of athletes participating in the competition tomorrow and the order of athletes appearing.

While waiting for the athlete list, Zhongping Nanbu watched the award ceremony for the 100-meter sprint. Seeing Chen Qiang's full of energy on the podium, he felt envious and encouraged himself.

After waiting for most of the day, Nanbu Chukai finally got the list of athletes who will participate in the Olympic long jump competition tomorrow.

"Are there only twelve people?" Nanbu Tadaehira looked directly at the last person's appearance number, which was "12".

"The number of people is much less than the last Olympics. I remember that in the last Olympics, there were 41 people participating in the long jump competition." Tadhipei of Nanbu murmured to himself.

Nanbu Chuanping once participated in the 1928 Amsterdam Olympics. At that time, he also signed up for the long jump and triple jump, so he knew about the situation of the last Olympics.

At the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics, due to the Great Depression and far away from the European continent, the total number of athletes participating was only one-third of that of the Amsterdam Olympics. The long jump competition also happened to reflect this number, and the athletes participating in the long jump dropped from 41 to 12.

It is precisely because only 12 athletes participated in the long jump competition that there was no preliminary competition for the long jump event of the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics, only the finals, and all athletes decided the winner in one game!

"Let me see who there are and whether there are athletes I am familiar with." Tadaohei of Nanbu looked carefully at the list of participating athletes.

"The gold medalist in the last Olympic long jump competition was American Ed Hamm, who seemed to have no name. I have long heard that the domestic selection competitions in the United States are very cruel. As expected, the last Olympic champion was not able to participate."

"American Ed Gordon, he seems to be the seventh place in the last Olympics! There is also German player Erich, who is the fifth place in the last Olympics!" Nanbu Tadhipei saw two familiar names.

At the Amsterdam Olympics, Tadai Nanbu won the ninth place in the long jump, so he still remembers the players who ranked ahead of him.

Nanbu Tadaehiro continued to look at the contestants' list, and suddenly, he saw a name that was very strange but familiar to him.

"Chen Qiang?" Nanbu Zhongping was shocked. He quickly looked at his nationality. It was indeed China.

"Chen Qiang, is he going to participate in the long jump competition? Or is it just the same name?"

"China has only sent two athletes to participate in the competition, how could it be that the names are the same!"

"Or it was the organizer who made a mistake? It was impossible. This was the Olympics, and the contestants came to the scene to confirm in person before the competition. How could they make a mistake?"

Nanbu Zhongping was suddenly confused and didn't know what to do!

...

In front of Chen Qiang, Shen Siliang's excited runway, he held the Olympic gold medal in his hand and observed it carefully. His expression seemed to want to go up and add a few mouthfuls.

After a long time, Chen Siliang was reluctant to return the gold medal to Chen Qiang, and then said, "Chen Qiang, the Chinese group in Los Angeles has prepared a celebration banquet for you! The car is ready, right outside."

Chen Qiang hesitated for a moment and said, "Then I will attend, but I won't drink wine and I can't eat food indiscriminately. I will participate in the 200-meter preliminary, semi-finals, and long jump tomorrow."

Chen Siliang slapped his forehead: "I am so happy that I forgot about this matter. You will still have a competition tomorrow. If this is the case, you will show your face at the celebration party and then go back to the hotel to rest. I believe that those overseas Chinese will definitely understand it. By the way, just say whatever you want to eat, and I will ask the chef to prepare the meal and deliver it to your room."

Next, Chen Qiang attended the celebration held by overseas Chinese for him. Originally, the overseas Chinese wanted Chen Qiang to have a full meal, but after learning that Chen Qiang would continue to participate in the competition tomorrow, they expressed their understanding. After cheering Chen Qiang for encouragement, they sent a car to send Chen Qiang back to the hotel.

After returning to the hotel, Chen Qiang ate some food and went to bed early. Some media wanted to interview Chen Qiang, but were blocked by Coach Song.

Because tomorrow's competition task is very heavy, not only two 200-meter games, but also one long jump final.

...

John is an auto worker who is lucky to have not lost his job in the Great Depression and still owns a job to support his family.

After get off work, John returned home as usual. His wife had prepared dinner and his children had returned home from school. John could finally enjoy a happy family life.

During dinner, John turned on the radio, and the Los Angeles Olympics broadcast was also heard on the radio.

"How many years seem to be the first game day of the Olympics. I don't know how many gold medals the US team won." John said to himself.

Only the radio heard this broadcast: "In the track and field, Chinese athlete Chen Qiang won the men's 100-meter sprint championship with a time of 10.2 seconds, and broke the 10.3 world record held by Canadian Passi Williams. Eddie Tolan and Ralph Metcalf won the second and third places respectively."

John put down his knife and fork with a look of surprise and looked at the radio with an incredible look on his face.

"The Chinese broke the world record of 100-meter sprint? How is this possible? Just those thin and small Chinese people? Is it April Fool's Day today?"

The same thing happened among countless American families. When those busy day returned home and turned on the radio, they heard the news that the US team lost the 100-meter sprint race.

The 100-meter sprint event has always been ruled by the United States. The 100-meter sprint gold medal has always been regarded as a forbidden item by Americans, and other countries are difficult to get involved. When Canadian Pasey Williams broke the world record, it caused a lot of sensation in the United States. But Pasey Williams is a Canadian at least, and Americans can still accept this result in their hearts.

But now, the one who broke the world record was actually a Chinese, which instantly caused a sensation across the United States!

At that time, the United States discriminated against Chinese people more seriously than in European countries. The "Chinese Exclusion Act" wrote racial discrimination against Chinese people into the law. In this case, how could the American people accept a Chinese and take away the ban on gold medal of the 100-meter sprint from the American team!

There were only six people in the finals, and Americans accounted for half of them. Three of the best sprinters in the United States actually lost to one Chinese!

The American people were very disappointed, and this loss made them feel very embarrassed. Some sports commentators simply published articles, describing the Olympic gold medal in the 100-meter sprint as the most painful failure in American track and field.

...

Shanghai, Zhao Ziliang, a reporter from Shenbao, walked out of the Telegram Bureau and was still in a state of sleepwalking.

"I'm not dreaming, Chen Qiang won the Olympics championship and broke the world record!"

The excited emotions seemed like waves, hitting Zhao Ziliang's mind in waves. At this time, he really wanted to shout loudly to vent his excitement.

But reason suppressed the impulse in Zhao Ziliang's heart. He knew that he could never shout it out. He wanted to return to the newspaper as quickly as possible and then publish the news in the newspaper.
