This is the first time that China’s athletes won the men’s and women’s 100m gold medals in track and field events at the Asian Games, and it is also the first time in the history of the Asian Games that athletes from the same delegation won the men’s and women’s "Flying Man" championship.

In the women’s 100-meter final, facing the Singaporean star Pereira, who had defeated herself in this year’s Asian Championships, Ge Manqi, with "Nezha head", resisted the pressure and took the lead in hitting the line with a strong sprint of 11.23 seconds. In the men’s final, the famous Xie Zhenye defeated his opponent and himself. The winning result of 9.97 seconds is that he broke through the 10-second mark again after five years after 2018. Although the downwind wind speed of 2.4 meters per second made his achievement not be counted as an effective achievement of reaching the Paris Olympic Games, Xie Zhenye said after the game that although he exceeded the wind speed, his achievement was here, and there was no regret in defeating himself.
Xie Zhenye said, "I’ve been thinking about it this year. At the beginning of the year, I always wanted to break 10 seconds, but I never got what I wanted. Gradually, I calmed my mind. I feel that I have the strength and ability as long as I do myself well and rely on this technology. I think today’s results speak for themselves. God pays off. As long as you work hard, the results will not be bad. "

These two heavy gold medals are hard-won for China sprint. In the middle of this season, "Asian Flying Man" Su Bingtian ended the whole season ahead of schedule due to physical reasons. Xie Zhenye and the cutting-edge Chen Guanfeng held up the important task of defending the honor of men’s sprint for the China team. Ge Manqi was hit by the sudden death of his teacher at the end of last year, and suffered from injuries at the beginning of the season.
When talking about the teacher after the game, Ge Manqi choked up and wept. She also stressed that she can win the gold medal without the support and help of the whole team. "I said a word before, and hard work will pay off. This year, I found that the premise that hard work will pay off is that this is not just one person’s efforts, but that there are many people behind me who have been silently helping me and supporting me. "
Team cooperation and continuous struggle between old and new athletes have made China sprint today. The victories of Xie Zhenye and Ge Manqi also belong to the whole China sprint.

"A fine tradition of our China track and field team is inheritance. Today, Chen Guanfeng has been rushing with me until the final, which further proves our inheritance. " Xie Zhenye said, "Now many young athletes are stepping onto the international stage step by step, striving for a higher level. I also hope that they can go further than me in the future. "
In this Asian Games, Xie Zhenye and Chen Guanfeng, who won the seventh place that night, will also lead younger teammates to attack the men’s 4X100 relay gold medal. Ge Manqi will also join hands with Wei Yongli, the fifth "big sister" in the 100-meter final, and strive to defend the glory of the China women’s relay in Asia. (Participating in writing: Huang Wei)
