Chapter 81
Finally, when it was almost 12 o'clock noon, all the competitions arranged this morning had all ended, and a total of the men's champions were decided, 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, 800 meters, 110 meters hurdles and 400 meters hurdles. What will be held next is the award ceremony that Li Tian and many Chinese audiences have been looking forward to.
Although this is a large-scale event in Germany, it is only a university-level competition after all, so the award ceremony arranged by the event organizing committee is relatively simple. Li Tian didn't care whether the format was simple. He just wanted to experience the feeling of standing on the highest podium and enjoy the indescribable beauty that Walter and he said.
Looking at Li Tian's excited look, Kederman and Walter, who were about to take the championship podium later, couldn't help but show funny expressions on their faces. In their opinion, Li Tian, who won the award now, is like a graduated college student taking an elementary school student exam. It is natural to get the first place, but he showed that ecstatic expression, which makes people feel incredible.
"Please follow me if you won the top three athletes in the 100-meter men's awards!" The 100-meter men's awards were arranged to march first. Under the guidance of a beautiful etiquette lady, Li Tian and two other winners walked out of the backcourt in a row.
The podium was set at the end of the track. Amid the intense and majestic music, Li Tian and the other two slowly walked across the 100-meter track that had just been fighting for honor. In the short tens of seconds of marching, the three of them waved to nearly 70,000 spectators in the field, and the audience also gave the three contestants the enduring applause, because in the eyes of the audience, they were heroes on the field, and they won the honor with their own efforts and the respect of everyone.
The three of them were led by the etiquette lady to stand behind the podium. In front of Li Tian was the high champion podium. He dreamed of climbing the place he wanted to climb every day and night, and now he really appeared in front of him.
"What is going to be held now is the award ceremony for the men's 100m final. The one who won the men's 100m bronze medal in this National College Games track and field competition was Fabian Rubel from Hamburg University..." When the host on the scene reported Rubel's name, the big black man from Hamburg University stood on the podium excitedly and received the applause from the audience alone.
"The one who won the silver medal in our men's 100m was Dennis, who came from our University of Berlin." After both contestants came onto the podium, the eyes of tens of thousands of people in the audience instantly focused on the last person. This feeling made Li Tian, who was already quite uneasy, even more restless.
"Now I announce that the last player to win the men's 100m championship is... from Cologne Sports University - Li...tian..." The host on the scene reported Li Tian's name with his passionate voice and spread it to every corner of the field.
Just when the host on the scene called out the name Li Tian, Li Tian could no longer help it. His feet suddenly exerted force, his arms slightly opened, and his whole body rose from the ground, and he couldn't wait to jump onto the one-meter-high championship podium.
"Ah...!" Li Tian, who jumped onto the podium, roared and vented his excitement. He clenched his fists and waved his head. His arms were firm and powerful, as if he was announcing to the world the arrival of Li Tian, a new generation of strong men.
Perhaps many viewers have seen the shocking roar of Li Tian in the 100-meter preliminaries. This time, they not only did not find it strange, but became even more excited. This is the call of the new strong, and they have a powerful challenge to all the strong.
Chinese audiences shouted Li Tian's name uplifting their arms, while more German sports fans were calling out another name that made them more familiar - Bruce Lee (Bruce Lee). Bruce Lee was the first Chinese star to change the view of the Chinese in the Western world. Li Tian's reputation in Germany in a short period of time also made many German people have a new understanding of the Chinese. In addition, the two of them are also surnamed Li, so many German media like to call him Bruce Lee second when reporting on Li Tian, which also shows the full recognition of him by the German people and the media.
"Is Bruce Lee? Hehe... Although it's just a 'little dragon' now, I definitely believe that in the near future, he will definitely grow into a giant dragon that leads Chinese sports to take off." Song Mingyu quietly listened to the cheers of the German audience at the scene, thinking in his heart.
Standing on the highest podium and listening to the huge cheers of the audience, Li Tian finally realized what it felt like when he stood at the top. It was a feeling of being looked up and respected by countless people, and it was a feeling of excitement and satisfaction. Unfortunately, this is not on the stage of the international arena, and he could not see the national flag rising above the field. If there is the extremely solemnity and sacredness when the national flag is raised, the feeling at this moment will be more perfect and more unforgettable.
Li Tian quietly put his right hand tightly on his heart, because in his clothes and chest, the five-star red flag that he had just draped around the field for a while. Although he could not let it rise on the field now, Li Tian still hoped to carry it on his body to accept everyone's cheers and praises and witness the honor he received.
"Please wait patiently for another four months. I, Li Tian, swear to everyone present that in four months, you will definitely rise high on the field and rise to the highest peak at the World Youth Track and Field Championships in four months." Li Tian silently grasped his chest and thought.
When Li Tian smiled and took the flowers representing victory from an official from the German Ministry of Education, and the officials put a gold medal symbolizing the championship on him, countless flashes of the stands on the scene flashed, and Li Tian didn't know how much film he had murdered at this moment. After waved his hand to the audience to express his gratitude, the three jumped off the podium. Li Tian came to the bottom of the stand at the finish line, threw the flowers in his hand towards the stand where the members of the "Tian Mi Cheerleaders" were, and continued to follow the etiquette lady back to the warm-up area of the backcourt.
Ten minutes later, Li Tian appeared again on the podium of the men's 400m championship. With the experience just now, Li Tian was very calm this time because he had a higher goal and hoped to stand on the highest podium of the international competition next time.
"Student Li Tian, please wait!" Li Tian turned around and saw that the one who called him was Dennis, who won the 100-meter runner-up. Li Tian had heard Kederman tell him that this Dennis was a young player focused on training by the German youth team.
"Is there anything you have to do with Dennis?"
"Can you remember my name? That's a real honor. I want to tell you that I really admire you. Although it's a bit embarrassing to say such things to someone younger than me, it's a wonderful thing to be able to compete with you. At the same time, I saw my own gap and realized that there is an excellent player in front of me who has to chase me and challenge me. What I want to say is that I want to challenge you again at the World Track and Field Youth Championships held in China in May." Dennis said very seriously.
