Zhang Guan's aggressive questioning made Richards look livid, and he said: "It is decided by the IAAF as to whether or not to be punished and how to punish it. Naturally, we at the IAAF have internal meetings to discuss it."
"Mr. Richards, you just answered my second question, so what about my first question? Two different test results. What does the IAAF think of this? I think it is always necessary to give Please give me a reasonable explanation!" Zhang Guan continued to ask.
"A reasonable explanation? The test results are there, what other explanation can there be?" Richards said.
"Then why are the results of the two tests different?" Zhang Guan then asked.
"How do I know? I wasn't the one who tested it!" Richards paused, and he suddenly felt that he had said something wrong.
Sure enough, Professor Campbell immediately stood up and said: "My laboratory definitely complies with the operating procedures and operating specifications in terms of specimen testing, and this test was also conducted under your own eyes. The test results are different. It has nothing to do with our laboratory, it can only be because of differences in the samples tested!”
"Yes, it's the difference in the tested specimens." Richards finally thought of a reason, and he continued: "Zhang Guan, even if there are different test results, it does not mean that you have not used doping, because There are differences among the specimens tested.”
Richards said, bowing to Bowerman of the International Tennis Federation, and then said: "Mr. Bowerman, I am not saying that there is something wrong with the specimens provided by the International Tennis Federation, I am just saying that there are differences in the specimens tested. I would like to take the liberty to ask, when was the sampling time of this bottle of specimen provided by the International Tennis Federation?"
Bowerman thought for a while and said, "It's after the Olympic tennis finals, and the time is August 17."
"Thank you very much for the information you provided." Richards said with a proud look on his face: "The specimens provided by the International Tennis Federation were collected on August 17, and the ones we just monitored Among the specimens, the earliest collection time was the long jump final on August 18, followed by the 1500-meter final on August 19, the 200-meter final on August 20, the triple jump final and the 400-meter final on August 21, The 800-meter final on August 22 and the relay final on August 23, which means that the specimens we just tested were only collected one day after the tennis final. So we do not rule out the possibility that You used doping again after collecting the specimens at the tennis final on August 17, so the specimens provided by the International Tennis Federation could not detect doping, but the specimens provided by the IAAF did detect doping! These are the two The reason for the different test results!”
Richards looked at Professor Campbell and asked, "Professor Campbell, from a scientific point of view, is this hypothesis of mine impossible?"
Professor Campbell nodded: "From a scientific perspective, according to your hypothesis, there will indeed be two different test results!"
A winner's smile once again appeared on Richards' face, and he began to admire his own intelligence in his heart for being able to take advantage of the time difference to once again confirm the doping incident.
"Fortunately, I acted accordingly. Don't think that if you find an International Tennis Federation and do another specimen test, you can prove your innocence. I will be the winner in the end!" Richards looked at Zhang Guan with a proud look on his face. , he wanted to hear Zhang Guan’s next excuse.
Zhang Guan thought for two seconds and said: "I remember this secondary test because the IAAF found a problem in the previous temporary test. The specimen was taken after the men's 100m final. , if I remember correctly, the 100-meter final was on August 16, which was before the tennis final."
"We do not rule out the possibility of errors in that random test. That random test was not conducted here, so it cannot be used as a reference for this test. As for today's test results, we have enough basis to judge that you used Stimulants." Richards said ruthlessly.
Richards's words made many people at the scene frown, including representatives from the IAAF and the International Anti-Doping Organization. Logically speaking, Richards's words are untenable. Yes, but according to the rules, Richards did not violate the rules. This can be said to have taken advantage of a loophole in the rules.
Zhang Guan's face remained calm, but in his heart he felt Ibi's anger because of Richards' rogueness. He calmed down and said loudly: "According to Mr. Richards' theory, the result of the 100-meter post-race sample tested by the IAAF is invalid?"
"It's not invalid, it just won't be used as a basis for judgment. According to the rules, we have reasons not to accept the test results if they are not in the same laboratory." Richards continued ruthlessly.
"Are you going to accept the test results of the sample from the International Tennis Federation just now?" Zhang Guan asked next.
"We are not prepared to accept it because that bottle of specimen was sampled before the other specimens. It cannot be used as evidence to determine that you did not use doping." Richards said.
"I understand, the specimens obtained earlier are invalid, so are the specimens obtained later also invalid?" Zhang Guanxiang asked pretending to be angry.
"Of course not." Richards continued: "Or not entirely. Of course, there needs to be a time limit. If the time interval is too long, it will be invalid."
"Is the time apart too long? How much is too long? 12 hours? 24 hours? Or 48 hours?" Zhang Guan then asked.
"This is a professional medical question that I can't answer. I saw that you also brought a professional. I suggest you consult him." Richards said.
"Ahem..." Professor Campbell, the host, coughed dryly and said: "The complete metabolism of erythropoietin is not that fast. The specific metabolism time also varies from person to person, but erythropoietin is still present within 24 hours. Within the action time…”
"According to your opinion, after using erythropoietin, the samples collected within 24 hours will definitely be able to detect it?" Zhang Guan asked.
"With the level of our laboratory, it can be done." Professor Campbell said with some pride.
"Okay, let's continue!" Zhang Guan said.
"Continue? What continue?" Professor Campbell was a little confused.
"Continue testing the next specimen!" Zhang Guan said.
"The next specimen? Where is it?" Professor Campbell said here, suddenly realizing something, he looked towards the door.
At this time, there was a commotion at the door. Someone squeezed into the reporters and tried to pass through the crowd.
"Give way, thank you, please give way!" A voice sounded.
This time, the reporters learned the lesson. They realized that big news was going to happen, so they took the initiative to get out of the way.
There were two white men in suits and ties. The leader looked to be nearly sixty years old. He was also followed by another person, holding a silver suitcase in his hand. He was still so high-end and classy.
Richards screamed in his heart. When he saw the silver box, he already had a premonition of what would happen next.
"That's Mr. Vettel, Mr. Vettel of FIBA!" someone said.
