Since the German players will compete with the Australian team for the bronze medal, German TV stations also broadcast the final of the men's track cycling race.
In the broadcast room, the broadcast team was also discussing this game.
“Oh my god, Team GB fell!”
"The referee thought the accident was caused by the slippery ground and asked for a rematch!"
"The French team originally had a great advantage, but in this rematch, the French team suffered a loss!"
"The race has restarted, and the British team is in the lead... Look, the British star Hoy! Crossed the finish line first! The British won!"
"If it hadn't been for that accidental fall, the British team would definitely have lost!"
"Wait a minute, why do I think I've seen this game before?" a director said.
"Have you seen it? Haha, Brundle, don't be joking, this is a live broadcast!" said a person next to him with a smile.
"No, this game process is very familiar. I must have seen it there." The director named Brundle frowned and thought for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up and ran out quickly.
"What's wrong with Brundle? Is he having diarrhea?"
Just when everyone was confused, Brundle had already ran back, holding a newspaper in his hand.
"Look!" Brendel showed the newspaper in front of everyone.
"This is The Thinker. I heard it's about to close down. What's the point of a newspaper like yours that no one reads?"
"You read this report, I will read it to you. According to insiders..."
Brundle read out this report, and everyone at the scene had a look of horror.
"Really or not? Brundle, are you kidding us?"
"Brendel, are you just making up a report on the spot? Bring it over and let me see it!" A middle-aged man closest to Brundle grabbed the newspaper and saw the piece of paper. Report.
"It's true! When was this newspaper published?" the middle-aged man asked immediately.
"I bought it at the subway station this morning!" Brundle said.
"This morning's newspaper was at least typed last night. Is their chief editor a gypsy? Can he tell fortunes?" the middle-aged man said in surprise.
"It's not divination! The Thinker got the news last night! It seems that what the newspaper said is true." Another person paused and then said: "The host won the championship through bribery. This Could it be the biggest scandal in sports history?"
"Why are you still hanging around? Tell the editor-in-chief quickly and don't let other media get the lead on such a big news!"
…
Belgium is known as the "Kingdom of Bicycles" in Europe. They have more bicycles than the total population, and Belgian roads are also equipped with dedicated bicycle lanes.
Therefore, Belgian sports channels are also paying close attention to this bicycle racing final.
"Standard" is the newspaper with the largest circulation in Belgium. At this time, Hazard, the editor-in-chief of the sports section of "Standard", was in his office, crossing his legs and reading the latest newspapers from various European countries.
"According to insiders... The French newspaper "Observer" is really crazy. It resorted to diving in exchange for a restart and bribed the referees and the organizing committee! It's a pity that the editor-in-chief of "Observer" doesn't write novels. Oh! This kind of small newspaper relies on random fabrications to gain attention. It’s too unreliable. I’d better not subscribe to it in the future!” Azar threw the Observer into the waste paper box aside.
At this time, the phone rang. After Azar picked up the phone, he only heard the other party say: "Editor-in-chief, the track cycling team racing competition is over! I have written a press release and sent it to your mailbox."
"Oh, I'll watch it in a minute." Azar then asked, "By the way, who won?"
"It was the British team that won the championship. Editor-in-chief, you don't know that the British team won this game with twists and turns!"
"Twists and turns?" Hazard suddenly remembered the report he just saw, and then said jokingly: "Did the British fall when they started for the first time, and then the referee asked for the second start, and the British team Just win?"
"Editor-in-Chief, it turns out you know everything!" said the other person.
"What! It's really like this!" Azar suddenly started up. The next second, he seemed to realize something, and looked straight at the "Observer" in the waste paper box.
"It's true! What's written above is actually true! This is a huge scandal! It looks like I have to work overtime today..."
…
London, Olympic Velodrome, post-race interview taking place at this time.
The British team won a gold medal at home and was naturally highly praised by the media. The participating athletes also looked beaming. On the first day of the track cycling finals, the British team won a gold medal, a team gold medal, which was undoubtedly a good start.
The reporters asked questions in a very orderly manner, but most of them asked Hoy. After all, Hoy is the number one superstar in British cycling and the first focus of media attention.
"Mr. Hindes, I noticed that you unfortunately fell down in the first start. Is this a targeted tactical choice?" A voice suddenly sounded. The reporter who asked the question was Ciro, and he did not go. Ask Hoy, but ask Hindes, who just fell.
Hindes is only 19 years old this year. Under Hoy's halo, he was originally the one who received the least attention, so he has been in the background, looking bored. Now that a reporter suddenly asked him a question, Hindes instantly became energetic.
"Yeah, we've been saying that if the penalty doesn't go well, we're going to fall down and start again. So I fell down, and I did it to get a chance to get a new penalty and ride faster, and I We did it, it was all planned!" Hindes said while putting on a triumphant expression, as if his fall had made a great contribution to the British team.
Next to Hindes, the other two players of the British team, Hoy and Kenny, as well as the head coach of the British Cycling Team, Sutton, all cast murderous glances at Hindes.
Although such a strategy was indeed formulated before the game, could this be said in front of reporters? But this Hindes is a very honest person. When reporters asked him, he said it without hesitation. Doesn’t this mean you are digging a hole for yourself
In fact, Hindes is too young. After all, he is only 19 years old. For a 19-year-old young man who has just won an Olympic gold medal, it is normal for him to speak unabashedly. What's more, Ciro was the first person to ask Hindes a question. Hindes was eager to show off his achievements, so he said what he just said.
"Pig teammate! Why do I have such a pig teammate? Can I say this?" Hoy thought to himself.
"Idiot! What did you say? Don't you understand that some things cannot be said? This guy must never be interviewed by reporters in the future." Coach Sutton stared at Hindes fiercely.
But Hindes still has the expression of "I have done something good". He has not yet realized how big a hole he has dug for the British team!
On the opposite side, French reporter Ciro suddenly laughed happily. He was waiting for Hindes's words! Originally, if Ciro retaliates, the British team will definitely refuse to admit it. Unexpectedly, Hindes, a pig teammate, sold the entire British team in an instant.
"So the media reports are true! So, the British team's bribery of referees and organizing committee is also true?" Ciro said loudly, while taking out the "Observer" from his arms .
