Almighty Athlete

Chapter 70: The storm started again

Views:

In the BBC studio hall, Edwards was heard asking: "It was a wonderful game. A yellow man actually broke the world record for the men's 100-meter dash. It's incredible. This is probably the Chinese's achievement in this Olympics." The first gold medal in track and field."

The host turned over the information in his hand and replied: "Yes, this is indeed the first gold medal won by the Chinese in the track and field event of this Olympic Games. Track and field has never been the strong point of the Chinese, even in previous Olympic Games. , the number of track and field gold medals they won is also very few.”

"Oh! When will the award ceremony start?" Edwards then asked.

The supporter then flipped through the information in his hand and continued: "The award ceremony will be held tomorrow. According to the schedule, after the second round of the women's 200-meter dash tomorrow, the award ceremony for the men's 100-meter dash will be held."

"We have to wait until tomorrow!" Edwards sighed, and then explained: "But this is normal. According to the rules, Fair Events Committee member Hu will conduct urine tests on athletes who win medals. Am I right, Eric? Mr. Sen?”

Edwards' voice suddenly changed and he asked Erikson on the other side.

"Yes!" Erikson almost said the word through his teeth.

A day before, Eriksson had hinted that Zhang Guan might be doping. At that time, he had discussed the urine test with Edwards. Eriksson swore that Zhang Guan had no chance of finishing in the top three and therefore conducted a post-match urine test. , and today Edwards deliberately mentioned this matter, naturally to slap Eriksen in the face.

Edwards and Eriksson have different positions. As a track and field coach, Erikson is also a sports celebrity. As a sports celebrity, the sharper the topic, the more famous he will be. Therefore, it is a common method for celebrities to show their professionalism by belittling others. Moreover, as an old British man, his mind is full of the glory of the "Empire on which the Sun Never Sets" and certain ideas of superiority. For Erikson, looking down on the Chinese is both cognitive and traditional.

Edwards can't say he likes or dislikes Zhang Guan, but Edwards is an athlete, and he speaks more from the perspective of an athlete. He knows that every improvement in an athlete's performance is behind extremely hard work. However, those sports commentators casually erased the hard work of athletes with just a few words. This was unacceptable to Edwards, so he naturally sided with Zhang Guan.

"However, the results can only be confirmed after there are no problems in the urine test. If the athlete fails to pass the urine test, the athlete will be disqualified from winning the award and may even be suspended!" Eriksson said.

Edwards immediately said: "So far, there has been no case of failing a urine test in the track and field sprint events of this Olympic Games. I believe that as an athlete, I will compete in accordance with the principle of fairness. And I also believe in the Fair Events Committee professional abilities.”

"That's not necessarily the case. Maybe some unknown methods that the Chinese can use cannot be detected." Erikson said here, as if he suddenly realized something was wrong and stopped talking suddenly.

Edwards on the opposite side looked at Erikson with a smile on his face. He knew that Erikson said something he shouldn't have said.

The International Olympic Organizing Committee has a special anti-doping committee. The organizing committee of each Olympic Games will also entrust some large biomedical testing companies to provide services for the Olympic Games. What Erikson just said not only questioned the Olympic Games. The fairness of the committee also questioned the technology of the biomedical testing companies behind it. These companies all rely on technology to make a living. A famous speaker publicly questioned their technology on a TV show. Maybe it will cost them. Litigious.

In a cafe near the parking lot of the Olympic Village, Director Guo stared at each arriving vehicle through the floor-to-ceiling glass.

At the moment, the TV in the coffee shop is showing the finals of the men's ring competition in gymnastics. The reason why this event is being shown is because Tampax, a native Greek athlete, is competing. The competition is coming to an end. The Greek player currently has the highest score and is very likely to win the gold medal.

Although the 100-meter dash is a very popular event, there are no Greeks participating. The ring event not only has Greeks participating, but also a player who may win the gold medal, so the Greeks naturally choose to watch the ring competition. Because of this, Director Guo never knew the results of the 100-meter final.

"Why is the game not over yet?" Director Guo seemed a little irritated, but Director Zhao next to him felt a hundred thousand unhappy companions in his heart.

Director Guo is making trouble for Zhang Guan, and Director Zhao will naturally not object. After all, Zhang Guan did not give Director Guo any face before this, and Director Zhao can also understand Director Guo's behavior. However, waiting here so late at night made Director Zhao feel a little dissatisfied. He, Director Guo, had slept less as he got older, and he was still quite energetic now, but Director Zhao was already very sleepy, and he was reluctantly relying on coffee to stay awake.

"Isn't it just a punishment decision? It will be announced tomorrow. Why does it have to be today? It's already twelve o'clock. These people who are about to be relegated to the second line are like this, perverted and crazy." Director Zhao thought to himself.

At this moment, several buses slowly drove into the parking lot.

"Here we come!" Director Guo reminded Director Zhao, and at the same time stood up, adjusted his collar, and prepared to walk out of the coffee shop.

However, some people are obviously faster than Director Guo and others, and that is reporters. While Director Guo and the others were in the coffee shop, the reporters were stationed in the parking lot outside.

Not every reporter can enter the main Olympic venues for interviews. Especially for online media that have just emerged in China a few years ago, their reporters do not have the qualifications of CCTV reporters, and their budgets are very limited. They even have to carefully calculate the transportation expenses to and from various sports venues. For these reporters, Said, staying in the Olympic Village is a good choice. Athletes have to return to the Olympic Village after participating in the competition. As long as they can stop a big-name athlete in the parking lot and interview a question or two, then their wait for several hours will not be in vain. They can't wait leisurely in the coffee shop like Director Guo. They want to get first-hand consultation, so every second counts, and they will choose to stay outside.

The biggest feature of online media is speed. It takes a day for traditional newspapers to publish news, but online media only takes one second. When Zhang Guan won the Olympic championship, the domestic online media had already made long-distance calls to reporters in Athens. The online media hoped that reporters could interview Zhang Guan. If not, they would take some photos of Zhang Guan's reply. Photos taken at the Olympic Village can also be posted on the website to round up the number and count as exclusive reports.

There were only about ten reporters stationed there, but at this time they rushed over in a swarm, but they seemed particularly chaotic, which immediately aroused Director Guo's contempt and dissatisfaction.

"There are really no rules, and I don't know how to let the leader go first!" Director Guo said to himself. The leader in his mouth was naturally himself, but no one of the reporters paid attention to Director Guo. Every reporter rushed to Bada just stopped.

"Zhang Guan! It's Zhang Guan! Take a quick photo!" A reporter pointed at Zhang Guan, who had just stood up in the car, and motioned to the photographer next to him to take pictures. Although the light inside the bus was not very good, and there was a The thick layer of glass did not affect the photographer's ability to take pictures at all. For a while, various flash lights flashed like fireworks during the Lantern Festival.

Zhang Guan got out of the car, and several reporters came up in an instant. Everyone asked their questions, but Zhang Guan didn't hear a word clearly. Zhang Guan could only wave his hand towards the reporter's camera with a smile on his face, but the coach next to him, Yu, immediately stood up and said, "Don't push, don't push. Let us athletes get off the car first, and then let's move aside first. Can everyone ask more questions?”

The reporters also found that it was impossible to conduct interviews like this, so they stepped aside to let the athletes get out of the car first. However, the cameras and flashlights were still focused on Zhang Guanzai's flashing lights.

"There are many reporters! This is the best." Director Guo came from a distance with a satisfied smile on his face. Director Guo felt that reading out the penalty decision in front of so many reporters was an unparalleled feeling of relief.

The next moment, Director Guo quickly squeezed into the bustling crowd.
