For the national men's basketball players, this is the first time they have an Olympic gold medal hanging around their necks. They hold the gold medal in their hands and caress every tiny line on the gold medal. They hope to imprint the gold medal in their minds forever. inside.
For Zhang Guan, the appearance of the gold medal has already made him extremely familiar. This is already the ninth gold medal he has won in this Olympic Games.
When the award ceremony ended, the commentator realized that this was Zhang Guan's ninth gold medal at this Olympics.
"The gold medal for the men's basketball team, nine golds! I just realized that this is the ninth gold medal that Zhang Guan has won in this Olympics! Two days ago, Zhang Guan said in an interview that he would go for the No. 1 gold medal. Nine gold medals, he did it! He really did it! He really got the ninth gold medal! Nine gold medals and one silver medal in one Olympic Games, both in terms of the number of gold medals and the number of medals , Zhang Guan has already surpassed Phelps. Zhang Guan is indeed the greatest athlete in Olympic history. I think at this moment, no matter who it is, no one can find any excuse to deny this!" Commentator Said excitedly.
Before this, Americans always used Phelps as the first to win eight gold medals. Especially after Zhang Guan failed to win the gold medal in the 4x100m yesterday, they were even more gloating, and only a dozen hours later , Zhang Guan really won the ninth gold medal. He surpassed Phelps and set a new record for the number of gold medals won in a single Olympic Games. The fact that Phelps was the first to win eight gold medals can no longer be used by Americans. Used as a shield.
Moreover, it was the U.S. men’s basketball team that gave Zhang Guan the gold medal, which is the strongest event of the U.S. team. This is really a double blow to many American sports fans. Especially those Phelps supporters, who now have no last excuse, this is a huge reversal on the last day of the Olympics.
In the 4x100m, Zhang Guan only won the silver medal. Almost everyone thought that it was impossible for Zhang Guan to win the ninth gold medal. However, a miracle happened on the last day of the Olympic Games. Zhang Guan won the ninth gold medal. Not after he The track and field event he is best at is the basketball event he participated in for the first time.
As many American media people have said before, people will only remember the person who broke the record. Before, Phelps was the first to win eight gold medals, so people will remember Phelps, but now there is Zhang Guan With his ninth gold medal, Phelps can be forgotten in the trash can. Looking back at the Olympic record, Zhang Guan's nine gold medals are what should be remembered the most.
…
IAAF President Sebastian is in his hotel suite, waiting to attend the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games.
As the president of the IAAF, Sebastian should appear at the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, but his other identity requires him to appear at the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, because he is also the chairman of the London Olympic Organizing Committee. At the closing ceremony, there will be a handover process between this Olympics and the next, so he must attend.
Sebastian had just turned on the computer and was about to check out the latest gold medals, when there was a knock on the door, and then his follower Richards walked in.
Sebastian looked at his watch and said, "Isn't the closing ceremony held after dinner? It's a little early to ask me to finish my meal now!"
"Mr. Chairman, it is indeed not the time to finish dinner, but you must take a look at these documents in person." Richards came over, took out the documents from the briefcase, and continued: "Another person has been found to be doping. ”
"Someone is using stimulants again, are you bragging about it?" Sebastian suddenly became excited.
Richards knew that the chairman had always disliked Zhang Guan, or that he had always been subconsciously discriminating against Chinese athletes.
"It's not Zhang Guan. Zhang Guan's urine test showed no problems at all. The one tested this time is a Jamaican player." Richards said.
"It can't be Bolt!" Sebastian asked.
"It's not Bolt, but his teammate Carter." Richards replied.
"Carter? This name is so unfamiliar..." Sebastian frowned. He searched in his memory for a long time, but still felt that he had no impression, so he asked: "What project did this Carter participate in?"
"Men's 4x100m relay! Carter is the only one among the four members of the Jamaican team who has not participated in the 100m or 200m. The men's 4x100m is the only event he has participated in, which means that this is the only event he has participated in. First urine test in the Olympics," Richards said.
Sebastian nodded and then asked: "Are you sure he is doping?"
"Yes, after the men's 4x100-meter race, the sample from bottle A was detected to have a problem, and then the sample from bottle B was tested, and it was very clear that there was a problem." Richards paused. After a pause, he continued: "Actually, we were able to detect it this time because we have some of the latest doping data. Since Ramz used doping, our IAAF sent people to the doping testing station to perform He discovered the anomaly in the data, and then compared it with some of the data we had, and then found Carter."
"That means we found out Carter?" Sebastian's tone was not filled with excitement, but rather with anger.
"Well, you can think so..." Richards' voice became smaller and smaller. He didn't understand. It stands to reason that people from the IAAF work hard and find problems, which should be something worthy of encouragement and praise, but Sebastian looked annoyed.
"Does this mean that the gold medal of the Jamaican team in the 4x100m relay will be cancelled?" Sebastian asked unwillingly.
"According to the rules, this is how it is!" Richards nodded in confusion, but secretly wondered in his heart, does this Jamaican team have anything to do with Sebastian? Although Jamaica was once a British colony and is now a Commonwealth country, and Jamaica regards the Queen of England as its head of state, Sebastian is not angry about Jamaica losing the gold medal.
Just listen to Sebastian continue: "Does this mean that the Chinese team's silver medal in the 4x100 meter relay will be upgraded to a gold medal?"
"Well, this is the rule." Richards finally understood why Sebastian was so angry.
"Then Zhang Guan won his ninth gold medal! No, no! We can't let him win the ninth gold medal! If Zhang Guan wins his ninth gold medal, he will surpass Phelps, wouldn't he? Confirming his reputation as the greatest athlete! How can I make a Chinese become the greatest athlete in history!" Sebastian said "NO" directly. The Richards in front of him is Sebastian's confidant, and he is also British, so there is no need for Sebastian to pretend in front of Richards.
Now Sebastian doesn't know the news about the Chinese men's basketball team's victory over the American men's basketball team, so he thought Zhang Guan only won eight gold medals. Because of this, Sebastian's heart is even worse. He The original purpose of sending people to the Olympic Doping Testing Center was to check Zhang Guan, but Zhang Guan failed to find out the problem. Instead, he found out the problem with the Jamaican team. This was tantamount to helping Zhang Guanduo win a gold medal in disguise.
"Mr. President, not only do we know about this matter, but the 2008 Olympic Organizing Committee and the International Anti-Doping Organization also know about it. The news may be announced soon. Even if we catch everything, the International Olympic Committee will also Take back the 4x100m gold medal from the Jamaican team and award it to the Chinese team instead. We have no way to prevent Zhang Guan from winning his ninth gold medal." Richards said innocently.
Sebastian was silent. After a moment, he said: "If you can't stop it, then just delay it as much as possible! Find an excuse, such as a review and confirmation, and delay it for a while, at least until after the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games. , I will never let Zhang Guan win his ninth gold medal during the Olympics! If we can delay it for a little longer until the heat of the Olympics has passed, that would be the best!"
"Okay, I will find a way." Richards said.
"I didn't expect that it would be me who achieved Zhang Guan's ninth gold medal! I was going to stop him, but I didn't expect that I helped him!" Sebastian had a feeling that his cleverness was mistaken for him, and he opened it casually. He clicked on a web page, and then his expression changed drastically.
"What? My God! This isn't true!" Sebastian's surprised expression startled Richards. Richards hurried forward and saw the news headlines on the monitor.
"The Chinese men's basketball team defeated the American men's basketball team! Zhang Guan's buzzer-beating three-pointer defeated the American team! China won the men's basketball championship! Doesn't that mean Zhang Guan won another gold medal! This is already the tenth gold medal. It's up!" When Richards said this, he suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, so he immediately changed his words and corrected: "It's the ninth one, and 4 times 100 meters can't be counted."
Sebastian's expression was uncertain. He hesitated for a few seconds, and then said: "Forget it, don't delay the matter of the 4x100m gold medal, let's announce the results directly!"
"Huh?" Richards was a little confused.
"Zhang Guan has already surpassed Phelps. Even if we delay it for a few more days, it won't make much sense! Let's put the icing on the cake so that at least we won't face difficulties in the handover of the Olympics!" Sebastian sighed. : "I really didn't expect that even God is on Zhang Guan's side!"
…
In the office of the Field Management Center, Director Ma is sitting in front of the computer and typing on the keyboard seriously. He is writing a report on the performance of the track and field events in this Olympics.
At this moment, the phone rang, and Director Ma shook his head helplessly. He was most afraid of having his thoughts interrupted while writing.
"Hello, I'm Lao Ma!" Director Ma answered the phone and said.
There was a rapid voice on the other end of the phone, and Director Ma's breathing became equally rapid.
"What are you talking about? The results of the Jamaican team were canceled because they were found to be doping? We are the champions? We won the Olympic gold medal in the relay race!"
Director Ma's mind went blank. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say. His hand holding the phone receiver started to tremble uncontrollably.
At this moment, Zhang Guan's figure appeared in his mind.
"Including the basketball championship he just won, Zhang Guan has already won ten gold medals! He participated in ten events and won gold medals in all of them! Oh my god!"
