Ye Shiwen's affairs were just an episode of the test competition.

In the next two days of test matches, Tang Hao performed very low-key. Although he advanced in every event, he basically surpassed the championship a little bit.

His idea is very simple. This kind of competition that does not receive any rewards for honor points, as long as it meets the standards.

The most dazzling one in the test competition was Sun Yang. His championship events were 200, 400, 800 and 1500 freestyle events, and they all won the top spot in the test competition. In the 1500-meter race, he swam 14 minutes, 37 seconds, 43 seconds, just two seconds away from the new Asian record set by the Asian Games.

Such an outstanding state also made Shen Qing extremely happy. Sun Yang is very expected to win 1 or more gold medals on behalf of the Chinese Legion at the World Championships.

After this test match, his teammates' views on Tang Hao have undergone a complete change. As for Shen Qing, he also has the most basic definition of Tang Hao, a short-distance player with extremely explosive power, the perfect puzzle for Zhejiang East Swimming Dream Team.

After harvesting this perfect puzzle and after more than a month of training, the Zhejiang Eastern Provincial Swimming Team officially embarked on the journey of the national championship.

In this competition, a total of 47 men and women from eastern Zhejiang Province reached the championship A-grade, and the vast team was the most dazzling among all provinces.

Shen Qing was determined to win this national competition, and intended to use this to establish the position of the strongest swimming province in eastern Zhejiang Province.

The venue for this championship is Jiangcheng.

Jiangcheng is the capital of Hubei Province and one of the core cities in the west. It is adjacent to the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River and its largest diverted Han River pass through the urban area and divides it into three parts: Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang. This is also the origin of the name of Jiangcheng.

It is precisely because of this geographical relationship that people in Jiangcheng are very good at swimming and love swimming. The local swimming atmosphere is quite strong, which is why the championship competition is held here.

Swimming competitions are scheduled according to the viewing ability. Most of the relay races and freestyle races with high viewing ability are held at a later time. The opening race of the first day is the men's 200m men's backstroke preliminaries.

But even so, the Jiangcheng Central Gymnasium has been crowded, and the swimming pool that can accommodate more than 3,000 people has long been overcrowded.

Tang Hao signed up for freestyle. He watched the game on the wall on the first day and became the front row audience.

In the 200-meter backstroke, the famous domestic player Xu Jiayu from Zhejiang Province played in the 200-meter backstroke. Although he was only 16 years old, he won the bronze medal in the 200-meter backstroke in the national competition last year, with great potential.

Sure enough, after the backstroke competition began, he led the way, using his excellent turning skills, and finally achieved a time of 2 minutes, 02 seconds, 54. While winning the first place in the group, he also met the requirements of the World Championship B-target.

The B-mark was reached in the preliminary round. If two people did not swim the A-mark or above in the subsequent semi-finals, he would have won the ticket to the World Championship in advance.

Xu Jiayu made a good start for Zhejiang Province. In the following competition on the first day of the competition, Zhejiang Province also showed unprecedented dominance and repeatedly grabbed the top spot in the group in various swimming styles.

However, sometimes a good start does not mean a good ending. In the finals held at night, the players from Zhejiang Eastern Province performed poorly without exception. Even Xu Jiayu failed to win the gold medal in the 200-meter backstroke. In the end, he only won one silver medal, and no medal was recorded in other events.

Such a performance caused head coach Shen Qing to be furious and also caused a series of jokes from other provincial teams.

These ridiculous names such as King of Preliminaries and King of Mindset are circulating among the teams.

The most dazzling one on the first competition day was the Shanghai Stock Exchange team. The number of participants was second only to those in Zhejiang Province. Not only did they win the men's gold medals in the 200-meter backstroke and butterfly stroke in succession, but in the 800-meter women's fast group competition, Faye Wong from the Shanghai Stock Exchange broke the national record and became the most dazzling star of the day.

After the first day's competition, Shen Qing pulled the swimming team members to the locker room and scolded him. The scolding sounded out of the locker room, which caused other provincial team players to make jokes.

They were scolded so much that they were very young, but their mentality fluctuated significantly. In the next day's competition, several players in the women's event did not make the finals.

Shen Qing shook her head while watching. Fortunately, Ye Shiwen performed well and swam in the preliminaries of the 200-meter medley with an excellent result of 2 minutes, 28 seconds and 20 seconds. While winning the first place in the group, she also met the requirements of the Olympic A-target and obtained a ticket to the Shanghai Stock Exchange World Championships in advance.

Ye Shiwen performed well, but her expression attracted the surprise of her teammates from Zhejiang East Province. She had a stern face throughout the whole process, even though she had already won the ticket, her cold expression was completely different from the previous one in the team.

Tang Hao was confused when he looked at this scene, and he didn't know whether the words he said to her were good or bad.

The most eye-catching thing during the day is undoubtedly the 4x100m freestyle preliminary race.

The 100-meter relay race is the most popular race in track and field events, and the 100-meter relay race is also the same, let alone the most viewing freestyle.

Shen Qing also has full trust in Tang Hao. Although he is a newcomer, he was ranked in the relay team in the preliminary round and arranged it as the second base.

This is also the first time Tang Hao made a debut in an official competition.

Before the swimming competition, the contestants would be introduced. When Zhang Lin and other well-known contestants were introduced, there was a burst of excited cheers on the spot. When Tang Hao was introduced, the audience, and even the audience in front of the TV, were stunned.

Tang Hao was famous in the archery competition before. In addition to the boxing gold medal at the Asian Games, the audience is not unfamiliar with him. Why are he now coming to the swimming pool? And it is also in the 100-meter freestyle relay race in eastern Zhejiang Province.

Is this going to rule the sports world or cause trouble?

The audience was shocked and confused, and even the commentator on the scene couldn't help but talk.

"That's Tang Hao, the champion of the double archery championship and boxing competition? Why did he appear on the list of Zhejiang Eastern Province?"

"This is indeed very surprising. When I saw the list of contestants in Zhejiang Province before, I thought there was a person with the same name and surname, but I didn't expect it was him."

"It's so crazy. This is already the third national event he participated in. He won the championship in the previous two competitions and even made history. Will swimming be the third sport to be conquered by him?"

"Disaster."

“Is it difficult?”

"It's very difficult, very difficult. In the previous archery competition, there was no requirement for height. In the subsequent boxing competition, he participated in the lowest level of 49kg. The lightweight competition did not have any rigid requirements for height. However, swimming was different. Short people would never succeed in the swimming pool."

"That's right, this is a 4x100 relay competition. The representative teams of each province are all the strongest players in the team. Even if there is a gap in strength between freestyle players, the gap will not be too big. Short people really have no advantage in such competitions."

The analysis of the two commentators can be said to be very pertinent, and at this moment, the camera was given to the Zhejiang Eastern Provincial Team.
