Su Bai, who was listening to Jiang Wentao and Pei Jin'an's conversation, remained silent but went over the data he had collected on domestic 400-meter athletes. Currently, the training of the core members of the team was on track, but there was also a need to start selecting and nurturing potential new talents, including future male and female 400-meter athletes. He had prepared some preliminary work for this, but due to his busy schedule, formal talent selection had not yet been scheduled.

Only when the entire talent pipeline was fully integrated and the depth of talent in the national team's 400-meter events was gradually increased could a healthy talent chain be formed. In the face of any competition, the national team could then make more composed arrangements.

In the previous day's preliminaries, Japanese spectators had actually been quite disappointed with the results. This disappointment continued into today's competition, as the Japanese women's team did not perform well in the B group finals. This outcome was difficult for many Japanese spectators to accept. Now, it was finally time for the men's 4x400-meter final to begin.

At this moment, Japanese spectators, after suppressing their disappointment, erupted with cheers and support for the Japanese team, expressing their strong desire for the team to achieve excellent results.

The spectator stands were not limited to Japanese spectators alone.

Although there were only a few hundred Chinese spectators in attendance, and they were scattered throughout the vast seating area like drops of water in the ocean, seemingly inconspicuous, these Chinese spectators were fully engaged in fervently supporting the Chinese team with flag-waving and cheers. Compared to the Japanese spectators around them who were explosively expressing their emotions, these Chinese spectators were by no means inferior in their passion and dedication.

Amidst this fervent atmosphere, the athletes on the track had already prepared themselves.

The Chinese team was positioned in the coveted sixth lane in this final. To their left in lane five was Jamaica, and to their right in lane seven was the United States. Sandwiched between the first leg runners of Jamaica and the United States, Zhang Ziyi was carefully tapping his muscles to relax and get into a better state.

In China, in the live stream chat of the sports channel, many track and field enthusiasts turned pale when they saw that Jamaica was in the fifth lane, and the United States was in the seventh lane, with China sandwiched in between.

【Woah... Jamaica in lane five, the United States in lane seven?!!】

【Friend, don't forget Belgium in lane eight and Trinidad and Tobago in lane four.】

【Damn, I just realized, is this the first time our men's 4x400-meter relay has made it to the finals of a world-class competition? Oh my, these opponents, they're making my heart feel cold.】

【Oh my God, you're right. I didn't even realize until someone mentioned it, this is the first time our men's 4x400-meter relay has made it to the finals of a world-class competition... When there was no Chinese team before, I used to watch this lineup and it was exciting. Now, seeing Zhang Shuai on the field, with Fraser from Jamaica on the left and Barnes from the United States on the right... This experience is unreal!】

【I can't handle this; I suddenly feel so nervous that my stomach hurts...】

It could be said that during the previous day's preliminaries, the domestic audience was too busy having fun and getting hyped up, not to mention the discussion about Su Bai's superhuman brain. People hadn't even realized that this was the first time China's men's 4x400-meter relay team had made it to the finals of a world-class competition.
