Chapter 1798: Atmosphere, solidification, the final change before the Olympics
[Russia's huge 805-man lineup went on a low-key announcement to give up the first two competitions!]
The Russian Olympic Committee and the Ministry of Sports held a joint meeting and announced the list of Russian delegations participating in the 2012 London Olympics. Among them, there were 436 athletes, including 208 male athletes and 228 female athletes. In addition to the athletes who were qualified, the Russian delegation also included 369 substitutes, coaches, doctors, officials, etc. In this way, the total number of Russian delegations participating in the 2012 London Olympics was 805.
After the meeting, Russian Olympic Committee President Zhukov revealed that Russian female tennis player Sharapova will serve as the flagbearer of the Russian delegation at the opening ceremony of the London Olympics. In this way, Sharapova will become Russia's first female athlete to serve as the Olympic flagbearer.
According to the announced list of Russian delegations, there are 104 athletes participating in the Olympic track and field competitions, and 32 athletes participating in swimming events. These two events will be the "rich mining area" of the Russian Olympic Legion. In addition, other events with a large number of participants include shooting (including UFO events) (22 people), kayaking (17 people), wrestling (16 people), fencing (15 people), judo (12 people), tennis (10 people), boxing (10 people), etc.
However, judging from the number of athletes, the camp of the "Russian Legion" that went to the London Olympics this time was a bit "shrinkable", because Russia participated in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and 453 athletes participated in the 2004 Athens Olympics.
After the collapse of the former Soviet Union, although Russian sports' performance in the Olympics has declined, it is still in the top three gold medal list. The medal list was only surpassed by the flower planter sports delegation during the Beijing Olympics in North Korea. The London Olympics is imminent, and the Russian Ministry of Sports and the Olympic Committee have also announced the list of participation recently. 436 athletes will participate in 37 events. Russian Olympic Committee Chairman Zhukov said that the Russian sports delegation's goal in the London Olympics is to win about 25 gold medals and strive for the third place in the gold medal list. Russian Sports Minister Mutko emphasized that Russia cannot catch up with the United States and flower planter at the London Olympics, and its opponents are Kitty Hawk, Germany, Australia, etc.
Mutko also specially introduced an Olympic award program. Compared with the past, the material rewards have been increased. In the past three Olympic Games, the Russian government's sports department and the Olympic Committee have been continuously increasing their Olympic gold medal awards. The championship at the Beijing Olympics reached 80,000 US dollars, exceeding the 250,000 yuan championship award officially announced by China.
Mutko said that the London Olympics will produce 302 gold medals. According to various reasons, "It is impossible for us to catch up with the number of gold medals in China and the United States in the London Olympics. The United States has 19 events that have won 100% of the medals, and the flower planters have aces such as table tennis, badminton, diving, etc. Our task at the London Olympics is that we cannot be worse than the Beijing Olympics. Our opponents will be Kitty Hawk, Germany, and even Australia and Japan. Russia does not have such an absolutely strong event.
"Our situation is very complicated," Mutko said.
[The United States sent 530 people to compete in the London Olympics to strive for the top gold medal list! Defend the medal list to achieve "five consecutive championships"!]
The United States will send a delegation of 530 athletes to London to participate in the 2012 Olympic Games. The number of female athletes in this American Olympic delegation set a new high and surpassed male athletes for the first time. The U.S. Olympic Committee recently announced the list of delegations to the United States participating in the London Olympics. Among the American Olympic delegation, which consists of 530 athletes, the number of female athletes is 269, while the number of male athletes is 261. The U.S. delegation will participate in 25 major events and 246 minor events in the London Olympics. 228 athletes, including Phelps, the athlete who won the most gold medals in Olympic history, have participated in the Beijing Olympic Games. 124 of them are Olympic medal winners and 76 are gold medal winners.
Track and field (47 gold medals) and swimming (34 gold medals) are big gold medalists in the Olympics, so "athing and field and swimmers win the world". It is precisely because of the above two major events that the United States has the overall strength to stand out in the top gold medals and medal lists in the Beijing Olympics in Beijing only for three consecutive Olympics.
The American media have never made speculations on gold medals and medals for any comprehensive sports meet. Even the President of the US Olympic Committee Probst is unwilling to look forward to the gold medals and medal list, but this year is different. The President of the US Olympic Committee Probst listed the performance of American athletes in the World Swimming and Track and Field Championships last year, that is, the United States won 25 medals at the World Track and Field Championships and 32 medals at the World Swimming Championships. He said that if the US delegation can win a record in the London Olympics like last year's World Championships, it will definitely be on the top spot in the medal list.
The US team, which never talked about medals in the past, was abnormal this time and seemed to be the "loss" of the last Olympics, which made them eager to prove themselves this time.
If Russia is not competitive this time, it is expected that the flower planters and the United States will compete with each other on the medal list.
[The flower planting delegation, it is not impossible to strive for the top three.]
The flower farmer delegation has a total of 621 people, including 396 athletes, while the number of athletes in the Beijing Beijing Olympics Flower farmer delegation has reached a record high of 639. The 396 athletes have shrunk by nearly 40% compared with BJ, including Lin Dan and Wang Hao and 3 Athens Olympic champions including Liu Xiang and three Athens Olympic champions will compete in London. The flower farmer will participate in 23 major events and 212 minor events besides football, handball and equestrianism.
The average age of the delegation athletes was 24.68 years old, among which the youngest was Qiu Yuhan from the swimming team, 14 years old, and the oldest was Liu Yingzi from the UFO team, 41 years old. 152 athletes participated in the Olympics, and 244 did not participate in the Olympics. A total of 30 athletes in the delegation had won the Beijing Olympics championship.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Infostrada, the world's authoritative sports data company, predicts that the flower planter in the London Olympics can win 37 gold medals, ranking second in the gold medal list, and the United States tops the list with 41 gold medals. This seems to have shrunk a lot compared to the 51 gold medals and 100 medals we created in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, but it is reasonable. Without the home court advantage, the flower planter in the Olympics after the transition from old to new is not realistic to reach the height of the Beijing Olympics. As for the Olympic team's goals at the London Olympics, the director of the Competition and Sports Department of the General Administration of Sports of the State Administration of Sports gave an answer: "Strive to maintain the first legion on the medal list."
We can see that after the Flower Planter delegation was in Bei Ao, they were confident that they would take the first seat.
Even if the opponent is the United States.
This is the courage that was not possessed in the previous Olympics.
[The London Olympic delegation Kitty Eagle Country is the largest!]
The host Olympic Committee announced on the 16th that the host Kitty Hawks will be the largest among the 204 Olympic delegations in the London Olympics. The flower seeders ranked fourth. The US team second and the Russian team third. The host Olympic Committee said that the Kitty Hawks held a delegation registration meeting on July 9 to become the first delegation to enter the London Olympics. The team has 542 athletes, 262 female and 280 male athletes, and will participate in all, that is, 26 major events. In addition, the delegation also includes 519 logistics support staff and 300 volunteers. This is the largest delegation sent in the history of the Kitty Hawks Olympics in more than 100 years. In the 1908 Olympics, there were 676 state-owned athletes from the host Kitty Hawks.
The best of history.
From a gold medal at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Kitty Hawks has also begun its Olympic recovery journey.
As hosts, they even wanted to create history, take the top three, and replicate the glory of the empire that never set in the beginning of the last century.
With the advantages of the host, how much can they do?
Let's wait and see.
[Top five Japanese Target Gold Medals List: Women's Table Tennis Singles Reward 4.2 million RMB!]
Deputy head of the Japanese Olympic delegation at the London Olympics and Senate Senate Seiko Hashimoto delivered a speech at an event held by Kyodo News on the 17th, revealing that the target number of gold medals ranks fifth in the world, hoping to match the 16 gold medals of the Athens Olympics. In order to make the Olympic delegation have a good result in London, all sectors of Japan have implemented a double stimulation from "morality" to "prize" for athletes. Recently, a Japanese company promised at the Olympic athletes' guild that if table tennis women's singles player Hayaka Hirano can break through the blockade of the flower planting family and bring back a gold medal, the company will award her a 50 million yen bonus, which is about 4.2 million yuan in huge rewards.
This time, Japan sent a huge delegation of 518 people to London, of which 293 athletes were the second largest in history, second only to the last Beijing Olympics in Beijing. Since Tokyo is bidding for the 2020 Summer Olympics, another task of the delegation is to recommend Tokyo.
Ichihara said that Tokyo held the Summer Olympics for the first time in 1964. When Japan was in the shadow of defeat, the successful hosting of that Olympics not only left endless touching to the entire Japan, but also brought dreams and pride to the entire generation. "After experiencing '3.11', Japan needs to have a strong force to unite everyone and face difficulties with hope. Sports has such power. I think this is also the reason why Japan bids for the 2020 Olympics."
[The Cold Country Olympics aims at the top ten gold medals list of 330,000 yuan!]
The first Olympics to be participated in after the liberation of the Han Kingdom was the 1948 London Olympics. At that time, 67 athletes competed and challenged 7 events. Among the 59 participating countries, ranking 32nd. Today, 64 years later, the number of participants in the 2012 London Olympics Han Kingdom reached more than 370, and it will challenge 23 sports events.
As the number of contestants increases, the challenge target will naturally increase. The goal of Han Guo in this Olympics is to win more than 10 gold medals and squeezing into the top ten in the comprehensive rankings. Han Guo entered the top 10 twice in the 2004 Athens Olympics and the 2008 Beiyao Olympics. During the 2008 Olympics, Han Guo won 13 gold medals, 10 silver medals, 8 bronze medals, and ranked 7th in the comprehensive rankings, setting the best results in history. According to the analysis of Tailing athletes village, who is fully preparing for the London Olympics, Han Guo will win more than 10 gold medals and enter the comprehensive rankings.
In order to improve the competition ability of the players and maintain the physical condition of the players, the Great Han Sports will arrange training camps at Brunel University in London for the first time to allow the players to adapt to the local environment. The training camp at Brunel University will provide Korean and nutritious meals, which are the same as the previous meals. In addition, a medical room equipped with physical therapists will be set up. In order to boost the morale of the players, the government will give gold medal winners 60 million won, approximately RMB 329,000, silver medal winners 30 million won, and bronze medal winners 18 million won.
The "Global Village Ceremony" that once every four years has finally entered the countdown. The 30th Summer London Olympics will grandly kick off at 9 pm local time on July 27, local time at Stratford Olympic Stadium in northeast London.
...
It can be seen that as the Olympics approached, major delegations began their own "big words".
This is a must-have thing at the Olympics over the years.
Watching big countries make quarrels and crush everything, watching small countries become dark horses, the following are the charm of competition.
For the public, it is of course an annual event, and for athletes, there will be more "war readiness" posture.
St. Mary's College in Strawberry Hill, Southwest London.
The track and field teams are all here to prepare for the final training camp.
After listening to Su Shen’s advice, Liu Xiang did not go to London like the original timeline, but instead stayed in Strawberry Mountain.
but……
When Su Shen came back from Monaco, he still received bad news from the team.
After less than two days of rest, Liu Xiang began to ignore these and continue to maintain his intensity and training plan.
The load reduction has not been completed.
Of course, in this era, the so-called pre-match load reduction training mode is not retained.
Continuously maintaining strength and capacity is the truth of training in this era.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
When Su Shen came to the training ground, he heard a series of sounds breaking through the air.
"Brother Xiang!"
Liu Xiang felt a little sorry when he saw it was Su Shen. After all, he agreed at first, but soon he faded away this expression, looked directly at Su Shen, and simply said, "Sorry, Xiaotian, I know you are doing it for my health, but..."
"Merrit's strength is too strong, far beyond my imagination. Even if I maintain my current level, I feel that I am not sure to defeat him." After Liu Xiang said that, Su Shen understood that as Liu Xiang, who fought back and even bet on everything this year, how could he sit and watch Merritt run over 12.93s in a row in 20 days without being indifferent?
His master Sun Haiping, after seeing Merritt's condition, especially Monaco's condition, also raised the originally set 12.93s to 12.90s, or even...
Higher level line.
no way.
It's too easy for them to run.
There is no way to pretend not to see it.
And Liu Xiang, if you want him to do this within 20 days, it is impossible now...
If the 12.90s guarantee is guaranteed, that is, it is necessary to break Liu Xiang’s current Olympic record.
This is undoubtedly a huge test for Liu Xiang, who has been seriously injured this year.
So it's better to say it outright.
I didn't say it straight.
But I have to say what changes are happening.
They are all men, so there is no need to hide them.
Su Shen was silent for a while.
Didn't say anything at the first time.
He actually ignored the mental pressure that Merritt would bring to the athletes themselves.
Liu Xiang was now stimulated by Merritt's continuous explosive results and stable performance output and condition in 20 days.
Liu Xiang’s goal for four years to lie in is the gold medal.
It's finally arrived now.
How could it be possible to give up?
Change it to yourself.
Can you give up?
Su Shen thought about it, I'm afraid... it can't be.
Moreover, Liu Xiang will have no gold medal competitiveness in the next Olympics, so his goal is this year.
"As long as you can win the gold medal this year," Liu Xiang's eyes flashed with ferocity. This was ferocity towards the enemy and his own. He had no way out, just like an elderly eagle forced to the edge of a cliff.
Can't fly.
Just fall down and smash it to pieces.
"Even if my leg is broken, it doesn't matter."
These words shocked Su Shen.
Words quickly brought him back to reality.
Others don't know, but he knows this...
It has really appeared in history.
Don't say it.
"I know what you want to say, but others can't understand me..."
Liu Xiang knew that Su Shen was in Ersha Island and even the entire track and field team.
Yuan Guoqiang Yu Weili and others often consider his opinions in depth.
If he stands up and opposes, he may really not be able to continue to increase his intensity.
So at this time, Liu Xiang's face showed a similar color that was almost "request" or even "pleading", and said:
"I know."
"You can definitely understand me, right?"
"A Tian."
“Essentially.”
“We are a type of athlete.”
“So now…”
"I can understand me."
"You are the only one, right?"
This is what comes out.
Su Shen said something to him and couldn't speak anymore.
He looked at Liu Xiang now.
This figure who has been calm outside but is squeezing wildly in his heart by the expectations of more than one billion people.
It also touched the nerves.
yes.
In this world.
Who else?
More than me, the reopener.
Get to know you better.
I understand you better.
Su Shen fell into silence.
Liu Xiang no longer spoke.
The person next to him.
Even more, I dare not show off my grandeur.
The atmosphere of the entire track and field field seemed to be suppressed by a mountain peak.
Chapter completed!
