In the conference room, Gadomei said: "Mr. Chairman, I want to confirm with you about the award ceremony."
"What happened to the award ceremony?" Prudhomme asked.
"Zhang Guan is the first player to cross the finish line. If he is also considered an official competitor, should we award him the yellow jersey?" Gadomei asked.
"Since he ranks first, the yellow jersey should be given to him." Prudhomme smiled and continued: "The first time I participated in the Tour de France, I got the yellow jersey. , Zhang Guan is considered unique!"
The yellow jersey represents the first place in the overall score. This total score does not refer to the first place in a certain station, but the person with the shortest cumulative time in all stations combined. The rules require that riders who receive the yellow jersey must wear the yellow jersey to participate in the competition.
The uniforms of the teams participating in the Tour de France are not pure yellow, so the riders wearing the yellow jersey will be very conspicuous. This is an honor, but it is also a challenge, because the yellow jersey is too conspicuous, and other riders will involuntarily notice it. Look at the rider in the yellow jersey and see him as the benchmark. Any tactical changes made by the rider in the yellow jersey will be noticed by everyone immediately.
Since this is the first race, the first place is naturally the one with the least time, and will naturally get the yellow jersey.
Just listen to Gadomei continue to say: "Mr. Chairman, in addition to the yellow jersey, Zhang Guan also won the green jersey."
"Oh, I remembered. He was the first to cross the sprint point and got 20 sprint points. In addition, he was the first to cross the finish line. The flat stage is 45 sprint points. So he has a total of 65 sprint points. Points! It looks like he can keep his green jersey until at least the third stage," Prudhomme said with a smile.
The green jersey represents the sprint king. Only the player with the most sprint points can wear it. In the competition, the green jersey is the most conspicuous piece of clothing after Huang Shan.
Kadomei continued: "There is also a red and white spotted shirt, also worn by Zhang Guan."
The red and white spot jersey can only be owned by the person who ranks first in the overall climbing score, and is also called the King of Climbing. The red and white spotted jersey is just like its name. There are red dots on the white base. Although this suit is not as conspicuous as the redwood or green jersey, it is also unique in the Tour de France.
In the first stage of the Tour de France a few years ago, because it was a flat stage, there was only one climbing point at the end. Zhang Guan crossed the finish line first, and naturally got the highest climbing points, so he also won Red and white spotted shirt.
"Other riders may not have the opportunity to wear the leader's jersey once in their life, but Zhang Guan is amazing. It was his first time participating in the Tour de France, and it was the first race, and he collected yellow trees, green jerseys and red and white spotted jerseys. He This trip to the Tour de France was not in vain." Prudhomme said with a smile. He didn't take it seriously. After all, this was the first stage. In the first stage of the Tour de France in previous years, he had also won the first stage. Three jersey situations.
"Mr. Chairman, and..." Gadomei obviously hasn't finished speaking.
"What else? Does the white jersey also belong to Zhang Guan? Do all four jerseys belong to him?" Prudhomme asked in surprise.
"Zhang Guan is not yet 25 years old, so the white jersey also belongs to him." Gadomei said.
The white jersey is established to commend young riders under the age of 26. The rider under the age of 26 with the best performance will receive the white jersey. Since Zhang Guan was first, he was naturally the one with the best performance among riders under the age of 26, so he also won the white jersey.
In the Tour de France, there are only these four jerseys, and now they are all won by Zhang Guan.
"All four jerseys have been collected by Zhang Guan! This is to summon the dragon!" At this time, Prudhomme sighed. The first three were okay, but adding the fourth one, Zhang Guan is truly unprecedented.
The Tour de France is the world's top cycling event. In this sport, anyone under the age of 26 can only be considered a young athlete. Before the age of 26, many riders were still "rabbits" of the team or backpackers. Just being a rusher is pretty good. For example, Armstrong won his first championship when he was 29 years old. Most of the other Tour de France champions were around 30 years old.
Before the age of 26, it is impossible to become the leader of a team, and it is impossible to get a yellow jersey. Therefore, for drivers who have both yellow jerseys and white jerseys, Contador has done it in 2007 for many years. Zhang Guan was the first to collect four jerseys at the same time.
…
Zidane and other nine guests finally passed the finish line.
The last stretch, although only a short three kilometers, took them an hour to ride.
The closer we got to the finish line, the more spectators were on the roadside, and the fans became more enthusiastic. Several guests had to stop and interact with the fans. In the last few hundred meters, they almost pushed the car over.
"It's finally over!" Justin wiped the sweat from his head. After a series of activities, he felt a little tired.
"The award ceremony seems to be about to begin. Do we want to go and take a look? Is there a place for us there?" Zidane asked.
"Okay, let's go take a look." Tom nodded first, and several guests followed Zidane to their viewing positions.
"There is an empty seat. Is it Zhang Guan's? Where are the others?" Parker looked at the empty seat next to him and asked.
As soon as Parker finished speaking, the award ceremony began, and Zhang Guan strode onto the stage.
"Zhang Guan? Why did Zhang Guan get up there?" Parker asked in surprise.
"Is Zhang Guan the presenter?" Tom Cruise asked.
"Did Zhang Guan stand in the wrong position? Why did he end up on the podium in the middle? Isn't that where the champion stood? The award-giving guest should be next to him!" Orlando Bloom's voice rang.
At this moment, two hostesses came up, one holding the trophy symbolizing the championship, and the other holding the yellow jersey. Then, in full view of everyone, Zhang Guan picked up the trophy and put on the yellow jersey.
"I read that right! Zhang Guan is wearing the yellow jersey? Isn't it true that only the first place rider can wear the yellow jersey? Why is it Zhang Guan? Is this a performance event?" Parker asked in surprise.
"If you really want to perform, you won't find Zhang Guan. Tom and Orlando are both Hollywood movie stars, aren't their acting skills much better than Zhang Guan?" Justin said.
"This is not a performance, it is a real award ceremony." Anduran, who had been silent, said. As a five-time Tour de France winner, he is all too familiar with the Tour de France award ceremony.
At this time, Zidane suddenly said: "Do you still remember, not long ago I asked people on the roadside who won the championship, and they told me that the champion was Zhang Guan!"
The guests all thought of this incident and fell into silence.
"Are those people telling the truth? Are they not joking? Is the champion really Zhang Guan?"
There is a short circuit in the minds of the guests. Everyone is a guest, but the things they can do are too far apart, right? While others were still interacting with fans and taking photos, Zhang Guan quietly got the yellow jersey that symbolizes the first place in the Tour de France!
