Chapter 385： international debut
The time soon came to July 25th. On this day, it was Chen William's first show at the World Swimming Championships in Magic Capital. He was still looking forward to it.
Today's competition, starting at 9:00 in the morning, will begin with the women's 100-meter backstroke preliminaries, and then the men's 200-meter freestyle preliminaries that Chen William needs to participate in.
Chen William was relaxing in the lounge and didn't have much communication with other people. After all, unlike him, everyone else was a professional athlete, including many world famous players. If it was another occasion, it might be a pleasure to chat with Chen William. A few words, but in this kind of competition in their field, Chen William became an outsider. ..
It is estimated that most people still have doubts about Chen William's strength. They think that he is just relying on his own influence to come here to build a sense of existence. Maybe swimming is stronger than ordinary people, but with their professionalism of athletes, and the top presence among swimmers in the world, that must be incomparable.
Soon, the preliminaries of the women's 100-meter backstroke were completed.
Next is the men's 200-meter freestyle preliminaries. The preliminaries are divided into 8 groups, and Chen William is in the third group. Their group includes the famous American swimmer, Rochette, who once questioned his ability. .
The current world record for the 200-meter freestyle is 1:42.00 set by German player Paul Biedelmann in Rome in 2009. At the Rome Championships that year, Biederman beat him with a score of 1:42.00. Phelps won the championship and broke Phelps' previous world record of 1:42.96.
In training, Chen William's best result in the 200-meter freestyle was once 1 minute and 40 seconds, and in the recent training, when he tried his best, he never dropped 1 minute and 41 seconds, so he Breaking a world record is not difficult.
But now it's just the preliminaries. Chen William only needs to ensure the first place in the group, which is enough to enter the semi-finals, because there will be 15 players in the semi-finals, and Chen William's group also has the top player Rochette, so he decided to temporarily Stay strong, you only need to surpass Rochette and get the first place in the group.
After the first two groups were finished, it was Chen William's turn to start.
Interestingly, in the previous two groups, there is the current world record holder, German player Bidelman, but his result is only 1 minute 46 seconds 56, which is too far from his world record result.
And his result is also the best result of the two groups that have been compared so far. But this is normal. In 2009, when Biddleman set the 200-meter freestyle world record, he was only 23 years old. At this time, he was at the peak of his competitive state. Now, he is 25 years old. Growth, as well as the trouble of physical injuries, economic decline is also very normal.
Just like Phelps, who won 8 gold medals at the Yanjing Olympics and reached the peak of his sports career, he was also 23 years old. But as he grows older, he is now 26 years old. Although he is still a strong contender for the championship in the past few years, he also needs to keep his dominant projects. It can no longer be said that he is in so many projects. are all dominant.
But what is interesting is that now, Chen William is also 23 years old. If this age is the period when swimmers are most likely to achieve results, then today, he will make a good appearance.
When William Chen walked to the pool in his swimming trunks to prepare, there was a burst of cheers on the field, especially many female spectators, when they saw William Chen's handsome face, matched with his swimming Athletes are even better, and after having ornamental muscles, they can't help but exclaim.
For a while, Chen William heard many voices shouting his name in the audience, and even he, who had good hearing, could hear "husband" in Chinese mixed with it...
Originally, Ivanta also wanted to watch Chen William's game today, but their daughter Chen Yiran was too young to be inseparable from her mother, and they didn't want her daughter to be exposed to the flash too early, so she could only I watched William Chen's game through the broadcast at home.
However, Paris came to the scene and avoided the embarrassing scene where Ivanta and Paris appeared at the same time.
The arrival of Paris naturally attracted the attention of the TV broadcast director. When they introduced William Chen before, they gave Paris a lot of close-ups.
The shout of "husband" just now was definitely not from Ivanta or Paris. William Chen felt helpless for a while, but he didn't expect to participate in the swimming competition and meet the "wife fan" among his female fans. ".
I didn't give him much time to sigh. Soon, all the players in this group were ready. The swimming pool was 50 meters long, so to complete the distance of 200 meters, it took two round trips.
With the sound of the command, all the runners entered the water and started swimming with all their strength.
Chen William was very relaxed at this time. During the swimming process, he still had the spare energy to observe the position at this time. I wonder if it was a coincidence. Beside him was the famous American player Rochette. Chen William felt that he was swimming. The speed is not slow, and he was overtaken by Rochette in a moment.
When 50 meters passed and started the return journey, Rochette was one head ahead of Chen William. Chen William was not in a hurry, so he bit Rochter tightly because he had found out that Rochette was in this group. In the leading position, if you want to take the first place in the group, you only need to bite his speed and overtake him at the end.
At this time, from the perspective of onlookers and the TV broadcast, this group of races went back and forth for 100 meters. Rochette on the 4th track took the lead, while Chen William on the 5th track followed closely, regardless of whether it was the audience. Still explaining, they all started to get excited, but Paris was anxious, but her heart was stunned, because she had not watched any swimming competitions before, she could only use her eyes to lock on Chen William's track, but also Not sure where he is now.
If Lochte's performance is within everyone's expectations, then Chen William can follow closely behind and maintain the second place in the group, which will surprise many people, and after 150 meters past, see Chen William still did not relax, and followed Lochte closely, and the gap between the two kept narrowing, and when it was even unclear who was ahead, many female audience members at the scene began to cheer for Chen William loudly.
After all, compared to the normal performance of famous players, the counterattack of "amateur" players like Chen William is what everyone likes most, not to mention that there are many Chen William fans among them.
In the last 50 meters, Chen William felt that the time was almost up and started to exert his strength. But at this time, Rochette could also feel that the people on the track next to him had been following him at the same speed, and he also tried his best to accelerate.
As the two approached the finish line, everyone's mood was also tense, and the commentary on the TV was emotional. It was difficult to tell who was leading in the end, and one of them was a super rich man who was quite a topic. It is really curious about the final result. .
Finally, Chen William's arm reached the finish line, and the other players also completed the race one after another.
On the screen at the race site, as well as on the TV, the result was displayed after slow-playing the scene that finally reached the finish line.
The first place in this group is Chen William with a score of 1:44.56; the second is Rochette with a score of 1:46.34.
Chen William's score was 1.88 seconds faster than Rochette's, and the time was close to 2 seconds, which was already considered a disparity in strength.
And the results of the two are currently ranked in the top two of this qualifier...
When William Chen got out of the water, because of the exercise just now, his muscles became more distinct, which made the female audience feast for the eyes. Many even regretted not bringing binoculars. They decided to go home and watch the replay of the game. And in the scene where William Chen appeared, slow down and enjoy it.
Chen William's achievement also stunned everyone. The whole audience cheered and applauded for him. Everyone shouted his name and celebrated.
After all, he is an "amateur" super-rich, and his current performance has crushed Rochette, who had doubts about his strength before, and the current world record holder Biddleman. This is really unbelievable. thing, because this is his first international appearance!
