"Unbelievable!! Jimmy!! Truly unbelievable!!"
After the sprint for second and third place at the Asian Championships ended, the event organizers revealed the final results, and Steve, host of Eurosport's road cycling channel, began speaking excitedly on the broadcast: "This Chinese rider really did as you hoped—he successfully snatched victory from Yevgeny of the Astana Cycling Team!!
"What a precious victory this is for his country!
"And through this spectacular performance, he has made cycling fans watching this road race remember his name!"
"That's right. Although he did not win this event, he withstood repeated attacks from two UCI WorldTour riders and successfully beat his opponent at the line. His performance was already outstanding enough.
"Most importantly, he secured for his country a priceless qualification spot, one that grants direct entry into the Paris Olympic Games road race!"
"Looking at the entire race, its excitement even reminded me of Van der Poel defeating Wout van Aert, Ganna, Pogačar, and the others at Milan–San Remo in March.
"This Chinese rider named Huang Chong has limitless potential ahead of him.
"I'm already looking forward to him achieving strong results in UCI events and joining a UCI WorldTour team."
"Me too, Steve. Perhaps it is time for the UCI WorldTour peloton to welcome a Chinese rider.
"I believe that as long as he can achieve good results in Pro-level stage races and prove he is no flash in the pan, he will certainly receive an OFFER from a UCI WorldTour team.
"Let us wait and see!"
As Huang Chong and the other rider crossed the line, Shinya Arashiro, whom they had dropped earlier, soon finished as well.
After that came Yuma Koishi of Japan, Kim Yuro of South Korea, Ganjkhanlou Mohammad of Iran, and so on.
As for Ma Binyan, Xue Ming, Niu Yikui,
