The rowing race turned into a boxing match, with the British and French coaches fighting on the spot. There was no more exciting news than this.
Zhang Guan saw this report during dinner.
However, there is no pig teammate like Hindes in the British rowing team who digs holes for his own people. The one who broke his own seat, Pritchett, also denied that this was a tactical arrangement, but insisted that the seat was damaged. It was an accident.
But there are not many people who believe in Pritchett. After all, the British team has a criminal record. The incident of the bicycle diving has not yet been resolved. Now a similar incident has been revealed. It is really difficult for the British team to defend themselves. Win people's trust.
"Another scandal, Sebastian must have a headache!" Zhang Guan stretched his body, stretched his muscles, and then walked out of the athletes' tunnel.
Next, Zhang Guan will participate in the men's long jump finals.
…
In previous years, the long jump competition was dominated by blacks, but the long jump in the London Olympics was different. Among the twelve finalists, there were only three black athletes, two of whom were from the United States and one from South Africa.
As for the white players who entered the finals, there were eight people, among which the host team, the British team, occupied two seats.
Among the twelve players, in addition to Zhang Guan, the strongest player is also a British player. His name is Gray Rutherford. He has won the European Championship and is a player who has high hopes for the British team.
However, Rutherford seemed a little unhappy at this time.
"I'm confused. Look at Zhang Guan. He is the world record holder in seven track and field events. He can win the championship in any event he participates in. How come he chose the long jump out of seven? If I choose other events, I can still compete for the gold medal, but the 14% probability is met by me!" Rutherford complained to his teammate Tomlinson.
"Choose one from seven? Isn't it three from seven?" Tomlinson continued: "Zhang Guan can participate in three events."
"He chose long-distance running for the other two events, 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters. So Zhang Guan only chose long jump among the events in which he holds world records. Isn't this one of seven choices?" Rutherford said. .
"5,000 meters and 10,000 meters? Hahaha, is Zhang Guan looking for death? Doesn't he know that there is Farah in the long-distance running event? That is the new generation of long-distance running king!" Tomlinson said.
"Don't worry about that for now, let's think about what to do in the next long jump final!" Rutherford looked gloomy.
"What should we do?" Tomlinson shrugged: "What can be done? If Zhang Guan performs normally, we will definitely lose. Let's try our best to finish second!"
…
Gray Rutherford, a famous British long jumper, historically won the London Olympics long jump championship with a score of 8.31 meters.
To be honest, the result of 8.31 meters is really a bit watery, and is not worthy of the status of Olympic champion. You must know that in the 1976 Olympics, the then champion American athlete Robinson had already jumped 8.35 meters, and in the following few The Olympic champions all jumped above 8.5 meters, and even Chinese athlete Li Jinzhe was able to jump 8.47 meters.
The Olympic Games have always been developing in the direction of higher, faster and stronger. If one session is not as good as the other, it is obviously a very wrong result. Today, Zhang Guan corrected this mistake.
Just imagine, without Zhang Guanzai, he would have won the gold medal at 8.31 meters. The level of the contestants this year is also poor enough. Zhang Guan is the only person in the world who can jump to the 9-meter mark. This is obviously a tiger suddenly appearing among the sheep.
There was no doubt about winning the competition. In the third try, Zhang Guan jumped with a score of 8.77 meters, which made the other eleven contestants immediately despair.
Let’s take a look at other athletes. After three trial jumps, Rutherford’s best result was 8.21 meters, just over the Olympic A standard of 8.2 meters; the worst athlete only jumped 7.85 meters, which was less than the Olympic B standard. There is still a long way to go. Except for Zhang Guan and Rutherford, only three people exceeded 8 meters. Athletes of this level are the worst in Zhang Guanquan.
In this Olympics, the level of long jumpers is indeed a bit poor.
…
What is being broadcast on the TV is the award ceremony for the long jump event of the London Olympics. Since the host player Rutherford won a silver medal, the British TV station still broadcast the long jump award ceremony.
Zhang Guan stood in the middle of the award podium with a smile on his face, but in front of the TV, Sebastian looked furious.
During the day, the scandal in the rowing event made Sebastian anxious. Sebastian has not yet settled the matter of bribery on bicycles. Unexpectedly, another "bribery scandal" broke out in the rowing competition.
The Prime Minister called Sebastian's office again, and then scolded Sebastian again.
Sebastian, who had been depressed all day, finally made it to get off work time, and then he returned home. He wanted to watch TV programs to relax and adjust his mentality, but he didn't expect that as soon as he turned on the TV, Sebastian saw Zhang Guan stood on the podium with the gold medal hanging around his neck.
Sebastian exploded on the spot and smashed two brand new teacups. He had been unlucky all day, but when he got home, he saw the person he hated the most, celebrating winning the gold medal in high spirits! This kind of stimulation is indeed so sour and refreshing!
"The award ceremony of the men's long jump event is played here for you. Let us take a break. In an hour, we will bring you the men's 10,000 meters competition. Farah will represent our British team and challenge the men's 10,000 meters. Gold medal!" The host's magnetic voice sounded.
"10,000 meters, Farah! I remember Zhang Guan also signed up for the 10,000 meters event!" Sebastian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to have found the goal of his life in an instant.
"Farah is the ace player of our British team, the new king of long-distance running in the world. This time, Farah will definitely be able to give Zhang Guan some color! Finally there is a good show, Farah completely beat Zhang Guan! The competition will be Will it start in an hour? I can't wait!" Sebastian sat back on the sofa, looking forward to the start of the men's 10,000-meter battle.
…
In the athletes' lounge, British player Farah, currently the world's number one long-distance runner, is reviewing the list of players.
"Three people from Ethiopia participated, three people from Kenya participated, three people from Eritrea participated, three people from the American team participated, and two people from Uganda and our British team participated." Farah couldn't help but look at his teammates around him. His teammate's name is Thompson, who is considered a famous long-distance runner in the UK and even Europe, but compared with the world's top African runners, his strength is still a notch behind.
"When it comes to the game, with Thompson's strength, I'm afraid he won't be able to provide me with any help. I'm fighting alone again!" Farah shook his head helplessly, but he was already used to this.
In the long-distance running event, Ethiopia and Kenya have an absolute advantage, and they can adopt team tactics. The British team obviously does not have such strong strength in long-distance running events. In the entire Europe, the world's top long-distance runner is only Farah, so he is used to fighting alone in competitions. And with Farah's strength, he can always win the championship even if he fights alone.
"They are all old rivals. There is no basis for evidence! The only thing we need to pay attention to is that person..." Farah's eyes caught sight of Zhang Guan's name: "Zhang Guan actually came to participate in long-distance running. Doesn't he know that long-distance running is my world? ? This is a naked provocation to me! When it comes to the competition later, I have to show him some color. Let him know that I, the new king of long-distance running in the world, am not a vegetarian!"

Today I saw Qidian getting a password red envelope, which is where the author sends red envelopes to readers. I also studied it a bit and found that the method of grabbing the red envelope is very simple. There will be a password red envelope button at the end of the chapter. Go in and enter the password to grab it. In order to allow you to grab it, we will give you a notice before passing the level. At three o'clock, four o'clock and five o'clock, there will be a red envelope for each level. To grab the red envelope, the web version is at the bottom of this chapter, and the mobile client turns to the last page of this chapter. Good luck to everyone.
