Chapter 123: Gold medal? Is Xu Zhuoyi getting cocky?

The next morning, the American track and field athletes competed.

There were a few young people chatting and laughing.

They are all the best in this track and field competition.

Whether it is the 110m hurdles or the m sprint, they are there.

Among them, Arnold and Oliver are the strongest!
When Liu Xiang set the world record, Arnold also ran an amazing time of 12 seconds, becoming the fastest 90-meter runner-up in history. However, he did not achieve very dazzling results on the stage of the world championships.

Oliver is the third athlete in history to run under 12 seconds. Unfortunately, Oliver never broke the world record or won an Olympic championship.

His best individual performance in a major competition is the 2013 Moscow World Championships, and the 2010 season was also the peak of his sports career.

接连跑出12秒89和12秒90的佳绩,5次跑进13秒,赛季19场比赛全胜。

It can be said that these two people are the top powerhouses in this Olympics!
They are the type that will definitely make it to the finals, and in the finals it will depend on who is stronger!

"Oliver, this time the Olympic champion may be decided between you and me!" Arnold smiled easily.

In his opinion, in this Olympics, only Oliver in front of him could be his opponent.

And like Arnold, Oliver had the same idea.

"Humph!" Oliver shook his head. "Apart from our American players, there are only a few Jamaican players who are worth noting. The other players are not worth mentioning!"

"Oh?" Arnold smiled and said, "What about the Chinese players? Aren't you afraid of another flying man like Liu Xiang emerging?"

When Oliver heard the name of the flying man Liu Xiang, a look of respect appeared in his eyes.

"Indeed, Liu Xiang is very strong. If the Chinese team can produce another player like him, then the difficulty of our winning the championship will be more than just a level higher!" As he spoke, Oliver changed the subject.

"But that was in the past. The current Chinese team, let alone the 110m hurdles, all the athletes in the track and field events are, if I may be frank, garbage!"

Yes, in his heart, except Liu Xiang, the whole Chinese team is garbage!
"Hahaha, indeed, what about Xu Zhuoyi and Zhang Yongqiang, what matters is their participation!" Arnold nodded heavily, agreeing with Oliver's statement.

It’s no wonder that the two are so arrogant, indeed in athletics.

The Chinese team's foundation is indeed far behind.

It can be said that the United States does not take the Chinese team seriously at all.

Not only that, this time, there were no legendary Jamaican athletes participating in the competition.

So, they can be said to be fearless and are almost certain to win the gold medal!
"The competition is about to begin, get ready!"

After saying that, the two men stood up. Their inner pride made them walk with their heads held high and their chests puffed out.

As the preparation time for today's first 110m hurdles semi-final begins.

Athletes from various countries began to enter the venue one after another.

On the Chinese team's side, as several people entered the venue, the sharp-eyed audience immediately spotted Wang Xiaoming in the team.

Immediately, some audience members shouted out in surprise.

"Damn, it's Brother Ming again. We Chinese have secured the 110m hurdles this time!"

"Hahaha, that's right, now that I see Wang Xiaoming, I feel like this wave is a sure thing!"

"You two idiots upstairs, this is the hurdles semi-finals, the places have been decided, and you're still talking about Ming Ge Ming Ge!"

"Exactly. Do you really think Wang Xiaoming is a god? Do you think we can win any competition with him in it?"

A few very disappointing comments suddenly made people wake up.

Only then did everyone remember that this was the semi-finals.

Wang Xiaoming can't play.

All of a sudden, everyone's interest was completely wiped out.

Since Wang Xiaoming can't play, what's the point of this! The Huaxia team is definitely hopeless!

Everyone has seen Xu Zhuoyi's matches before, so everyone is aware of his strength.

To be able to reach the semi-finals is already a great achievement.

So, no one expected anything better from him.

On Xu Zhuoyi's side, when he saw Wang Xiaoming coming into the team, he went over to him and called him "Brother Ming".

Not only Xu Zhuoyi, but also Zhang Yongqiang and others called him Brother Ming and served him wholeheartedly.

This made Wang Xiaoming feel a little flattered.

At this time, pre-match interviews also came one after another.

The main interview subject this time is Xu Zhuoyi, because Xu Zhuoyi is the most anticipated contestant this time.

Although, the best hope is to reach the semi-finals.

But the media still needs to give it enough exposure!

"Hello Xu Zhuoyi, you seem to be in very good shape this time. Are you confident that you can advance to the finals?"

Normally, domestic media would not ask this kind of question after confirming the strength of the contestants.

After all, these are all official media, and the authorities naturally do not want to be led by the rhythm.

This time, when the press conference asked this kind of question, it was also determined that Xu Zhuoyi would say something like "I will try my best."

This is a rather general answer.

However, what no one expected was that Xu Zhuoyi actually went against his usual behavior and pushed up his reflective glasses.

Then he said confidently to the camera: "I have confidence!"

"Ah?" The reporter was stunned for a moment, and then he tried to explain Xu Zhuoyi's words to himself, "You mean, you are in good shape in this competition and you are confident that you can surpass your previous results, right?"

The Chinese reporter tried hard to smooth over Xu Zhuoyi's words, so that he wouldn't be led astray by his words.

But Xu Zhuoyi replied proudly: "No, what I mean is that I will definitely make it to the finals!"

In an instant, all the audience watching the live broadcast were shocked.

They never expected that Xu Zhuoyi, the bookish man whom they had always jokingly called "coming to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad instead of the Olympics", would be here.

What you said today was so arrogant!
Definitely make it to the finals?

How dare you say such full words?

He has never experienced the trolls on the Internet, right?

"This Xu Zhuoyi is a bit crazy, how dare he do that!"

"Although I also hope that my country can achieve results, this is indeed overestimating ourselves!"

"Oh, if only the flying man Liu Xiang were still here!"

"It's so funny. You were the ones who scolded the flying man and drove him away. Now you are the ones who miss him!"

"Heaven and earth can bear witness to my failure. I never scolded Liu Xiang in the first place. Don't put all the blame on me!"

Netizens were discussing the matter heatedly, but they didn’t know that Xu Zhuoyi’s next words would shock them even more.

Xu Zhuoyi said to the camera: "I not only want to enter the finals, but I also want to win the gold medal!"

boom!
It was like a thunderclap exploding in the hearts of every audience member and netizen.

Floating, floating!

Is Xu Zhuoyi really getting cocky?
