Chapter 314 The Hood(1/2)

After making a decision, Tang Hao called Zhuang Jiajie and asked him to arrange registration.

This time, more than 40,000 people participated in the competition, but the marathon was divided into full marathon, half marathon and fitness running. A total of 18,000 people participated in the full marathon.

There are many people. For ordinary people, it is not easy for them to stand out among so many people to win the championship, but for Tang Hao at this stage, this is basically a piece of cake.

On the last day of the competition, as expected, Tang Hao easily won the 1500-meter championship.

The first time I participated in a track and field competition, I won four gold medals in a national competition. This must have shocked the whole country when I was with others. However, when this person was Tang Hao, everyone's reaction was relatively ordinary.

What, Chinese track and field genius players have emerged? Repay four gold medals?!

What! That person is Tang Hao? Oh...

The response that Tang Hao brought after the national competition was probably at this stage.

It was equivalent to throwing a small stone at the lake, causing a ripple, and then returning to calm.

Tang Hao didn't care about these things at all. In fact, except that Lei Jianfeng gave him some touches, he didn't care much about the national competition. In other words, his goal was not on this.

After finishing the National Track and Field Championships and successfully getting the ticket to the Asian Track and Field Championships, Tang Hao then returned to the Shanghai Stock Exchange to prepare for the next marathon.

The main purpose of non-competitive marathons is to participate in the whole nation and are aimed at all citizens. In a competition, the previous preparations and registration work will be very long, and the publicity work and later execution will be very wide.

Therefore, as early as the National Track and Field Championships, reports on the Lanzhou Marathon were emerging one after another. Marathon enthusiasts from all over the country, and even around the world were rushing to Lanzhou.

On May 22, when there were only 3 days left before the marathon, Tang Hao and Zhuang Jiajie also boarded the plane to Lanzhou.

Tang Hao's trip was only for honor points, so he did not disclose anything to the outside world. In fact, the organizer did not know that he would appear in this event.

Lanzhou, the most well-known one is Lanzhou ramen. Many people’s understanding of this city is at the level of eating.

However, in fact, Lanzhou is an ancient civilization with a long history, known as "Jincheng" in ancient times. It is derived from the meaning of "Jincheng Tangchi". It is a must-pass place on the ancient Silk Road and an ancient border fortress.

In fact, as the capital of Gansu Province, it is also the second largest city in northwest my country after Xi'an.

Tang Hao had never been to Lanzhou before. Because he was located in the northwest, he had the impression that it must be a dry place, but after he really arrived in Lanzhou, he found that it was completely different from what he imagined.

Gansu has an inland climate with little rainfall throughout the year, and most of them are deserts or Gobi. But in fact, any big city or ancient city with a long history will be built along the river bank, and Lanzhou is no exception.

The Yellow River and its tributary of the Yellow River, Huangshui and Datong River, all flow through the city. Although the landform has obvious northwest characteristics, the urban structure is actually not much different from other developed cities in China.

After staying in the hotel for two days, eating some local food in Lanzhou, and experiencing the customs and customs of Lanzhou, Tang Hao appeared at the starting point of the marathon wearing a hood.

This day was clear, but the temperature was not particularly high, and it was a good day for a marathon.

According to international regulations, the total length of the full marathon is 42.195 kilometers, the half marathon is 21 kilometers, and the fitness run is 5 kilometers.

For international events like the Lanzhou Marathon, because there are many contestants, in order to prevent congestion and danger, contestants set out in batches, and some participating professional seed players will set out in the first batch.

Tang Hao did not disclose his identity, he set out in the second batch.

He came early. After a while, the entire starting point was already crowded with people. The scene was no less than the scenes during the Golden Week tourist attractions.

Around him, players from all over the world were chatting. For most people, such a game is not only a sports game, but also a dating meeting with great knowledge.

After a while, there was a commotion in the crowd.

Looking in the direction of the crowd, Tang Hao soon discovered the source of the commotion.

The city marathon has bonuses, and there are quite a few. For example, in this marathon, the first place can get a prize of 40,000 US dollars, which is close to 300,000 yuan if converted into RMB.

The generous bonuses naturally attracted many marathon professional athletes and even marathon teams.

The marathon is not very enjoyable, and even top players have very little chance of getting sponsorship or endorsement. Therefore, such a marathon can be said to be a very important economic income for them.

The commotion in the crowd was because of their appearance.

Most of the thin black people come from Africa, which is a typical characteristic of marathon runners.

Most of the people participating in marathons are ordinary working-class people. When they meet black people or professional marathon players, they naturally have an explosion of curiosity, take photos and surround them. Those black people are not treated worse than those of celebrities.

Tang Hao glanced at him twice and then withdrew his gaze.

The commotion lasted for more than ten minutes before calming down.

Because further forward is the starting point, these black men stopped when they walked to Tang Hao and soon started to communicate with each other.

Tang Hao didn't care much at first, but the communication between these people quickly attracted his attention.

These people use English, which is not very authentic, but they can basically hear it clearly.

"Jimmy, you've made a lot of money this year. You've got at least 50,000 or 60,000 US dollars?"

"Patrick, how can you compare to you? You have to say less than 100,000 yuan. This time you will definitely win the championship again."

"Haha, thanks to China's continued holding such competitions, we have really made money in recent years."

"Well, China is a good place. Not only can it make money, but it also makes Chinese women. Speaking of Chinese women, it is really more than ten times better than our country."

"Chinese women are really good, with good skin and good skills. There is nothing to say. The last time I ran the Gwangju Marathon, I went to find a few Chinese women. That was really a super enjoyable thing."

"Actually, you are all too bad. Look at Patrick, you don't have to spend money on all Chinese women."

"Ha ha……"

The black communication quickly attracted the attention of some people around them. Many people frowned unconsciously. Many urban white-collar workers came to participate in the marathon. They naturally understood English, and their eyes became more contemptuous when they looked at these black people.

I noticed the eyes of the people around me. The black men looked at each other a few times, and then they changed their communication language tacitly.

Listening to their sudden change in communication methods, Tang Hao couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

These people are actually Nigerians.

Tang Hao spent more than ten years in Nigeria in his previous life, and his familiarity with this language may even surpass that of English.

Several black men still laughed from time to time, but others couldn't understand, but Tang Hao could hear it clearly.

These people did not stop their previous topics, and even began to share some "interesting stories", even directly telling some details about them when they were having sex with Chinese women, and the content was vulgar and vulgar.

Tang Hao couldn't help frowning.

Black people are very discriminatory in modern times. In the United States, there are black movements led by Martin Luther King, and in South Africa, there are black independence movements. It can be said that on a global scale, the status of black people is gradually improving.

However, after this status improvement, some bad habits have been around. Just like these black people's communication methods, it is difficult to change them in a short while.

Especially in China, black people have been sought after by specific factors such as the great work of doing things, which has actually made some black people’s arrogance soar. The problem of black people in Guangzhou is actually because of these reasons.

It seems that these black people also fall within this category.

"The players are ready, the first batch of players are standing at the starting line." At this moment, the staff on the sidelines shouted where they were holding the loudspeaker.

When these black men heard the shouts, they followed them towards the starting point.

Seed players like this have qualifying competitions before, and the order of departure was also determined. The first batch was completely international mercenaries, including Africa, America, and even many other Asian countries.

The black men stood in the front row, and it was obvious that they had the most outstanding results in the qualifying competition.

"Bang!"

With the starter gun firing and cheering from the crowd, the Lanzhou International Marathon officially started.

Leading by a few black men in the front row, the first batch of players quickly disappeared from the starting point.

This speed also attracted a sigh from the follow-up team members.

Generally speaking, it takes half an hour for an ordinary person to run 5 kilometers, and it takes three or four hours for a half-marathon to go down. The difference between it and professional players is like a ravine.

After 10 minutes after the first batch of contestants set off, the second batch of contestants also set off immediately.

Tang Hao is among the second batch of contestants.

Accompanied by the cheers of the crowd, the second echelon, mainly soy sauce players, rushed out immediately.

Tang Hao was mixed with the crowd and set off at the same time.

"It's finally started? It seems that there will be a good show today." In the parking lot, watching the crowd set off in the distance, Zhuang Jiajie held a cone and opened his phone while saying with interest.

Tang Hao's original plan was to follow the crowd for a while, accumulate energy, and wait until the last ten kilometers before speeding up to the first place.

This is a very safe way, and at his current level, it is also the most effective.

But after all, he is not a robot, and his emotions will definitely fluctuate. Those black people's words can be said to have stimulated him a little.

It would be fine if he took the Chinese government's money and slept with Chinese women, but he even talked about the details in public, and his words were full of dirty words, which made him a little unbearable.

He can't control women's affairs, but at least, he can eliminate this from the source.

Thinking of it, after running for about a hundred meters, he accelerated and rushed out of the crowd.

Seeing that Tang Hao was so fierce at the beginning, there was an uncle with a muscle in his body, and probably a semi-professional uncle spoke: "Young man, don't run so fiercely at the beginning, you will be unbearable later."

"Thank you for your reminder, uncle." Tang Hao turned around and smiled, then continued to speed up and rushed forward.

The middle-aged uncle was stunned for a moment. The person in front of him looked familiar, but when he saw Tang Hao disobeying advice, he couldn't help but shake his head: "Young people are just stubborn."

"Old Li, let him go. Young people always have to hit the wall. It's a blessing to suffer losses." A middle-aged man with a big belly next to him said.

"Well, I'm afraid he has something to do. Nowadays, many people who don't exercise usually come to run marathons on a whim and run the whole horse, which is easy for them to be unable to bear it."

...

The conversation gradually faded away, and Tang Hao quickly distanced himself from the crowd, and then accelerated to run forward.

As a bronze mark event, the Lanzhou International Marathon is broadcast live throughout the entire process. There are two helicopters hovering overhead in the sky, one aims at the professional team and the other aims at the amateur team, and the marathon event is broadcast live.
