There was already a protesting crowd in front of the London Olympic Organizing Committee. There were only twenty or thirty people. They stood there holding simple placards and did not shout loudly or make any noise.
But for Sebastian, this is a very bad signal, which means that even his compatriots have begun to turn their backs on him.
Internal enemies are often the most terrifying. A few protesting people don't matter to Sebastian. Even if there are more, Sebastian won't worry. It really makes Sebastian feel frightened. What's more, Downing Street's dissatisfaction with him has reached its peak.
There have been so many scandals at the London Olympics, and Sebastian, as the chairman of the London Olympic Organizing Committee, must bear the primary responsibility. Now even the reduction in gold medals is attributed to Sebastian, which is really a disastrous signal for Sebastian.
"Damn Zhang Guan!" Sebastian looked at the protesting crowd in front of the Olympic Organizing Committee, with a trace of panic in his eyes. He never expected that there would be such a passive situation today.
Last year, Sebastian was still lamenting his intelligence. He just issued a new rule, restricting an athlete to only participate in three track and field events, and cut off more than half of Zhang Guan. With his ability to win gold medals, Sebastian still felt a sense of joy for revenge at that time. He thought that Zhang Guan could only knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach.
Sebastian did not expect that Zhang Guan could still achieve great success in the London Olympics without relying on track and field. More importantly, Zhang Guan was still competing for the gold medal of the British team. This was a slap in the face with hard power, and it was about to happen. Sebastian's face was swollen.
Many people believed that Sebastian was trying to embarrass Zhang Guan for his own selfish reasons, which in turn caused the entire British delegation to lose several gold medals. However, Zhang Guan seemed to have suffered no loss at all, and the gold medal and world record remained the same. The brush flew up.
If the current Zhang Guan is the public enemy of the UK, then the current Sebastian is the sinner of the UK.
Zhang Guan is not an Englishman. No matter how much the British hate him, they can't do anything to Zhang Guan. But Sebastian is different. He is a native British man!
Sebastian does not have to worry about the position of IAAF president, but the British can still make their own decisions on the appointment and dismissal of the chairman of the London Olympic Organizing Committee.
…
The London Olympics has entered its final five days. On the track cycling track, the game also came to an end.
This is the last day of track cycling at the London Olympics. On the track cycling track, the final two gold medals will be decided, in the women's individual sprint and the men's keirin.
Many people may be unfamiliar with the name "Kelinsai". This sport is different from ordinary racing in that at the beginning of the race, there will be a motorcycle at the front to lead the ride. The speed of the motorcycle will gradually increase, and the contestants can use the wake of the motorcycle. Accelerate gradually.
The motorcycle will usually lead the race for a little more than three laps. When there are more than two laps left in the game, the motorcycle will exit the field. After the motorcycle exits, it will be the same as in ordinary racing. Whoever gets through first At the end, whoever wins is the winner.
The characteristic of the keirin race is that the motorcycle is towed, so that the contestants can use the wake to accelerate, so that the physical exertion of the contestants is on the same starting line. The contestants do not have to worry about being used by the opponent's wake, and they can compete in speed to their heart's content.
At the same time, there are four to six players participating in a race in Keirin at the same time, which greatly improves the viewing experience. Just imagine that on the same track, there are only two people participating in the individual sprint race, but there are six people participating in Keirin. , it seems naturally more exciting.
The greater the number of participants, the greater the risk of the competition. After all, the bicycle track is only so long and there is only so much space on the track. It would be more crowded to accommodate six competitors, so the bicycle keirin race is often There will be collisions. Due to the relatively fast speed of the car, once the players are hit by a collision, they will basically have to get on a stretcher.
The cycling keirin is another event that was considered to be the inevitable win for the British team before the game, because in this event, the British team sent their most proud athlete: Chris Hoy!
Hoy is a British cycling superstar and a dominant presence in track cycling. He has won many honors for Britain. As early as the 2000 Sydney Olympics, Hoy won medals for the British team, and then in 2004 and 2008. Hoy has won gold medals in every Olympic Games. Among them, in 2008, Hoy won three gold medals alone. In the World Championships and World Cup, Hoy also won more than 20 gold medals.
Among British athletes, Hoy has a revered status. If Murray is the most popular athlete among British athletes, then Hoy is the most respected athlete by the British. Hoy also served as the flag bearer for Team GB at the opening ceremony of the London Olympics. Being able to become the flag-bearer of the host country is enough to reflect Hoy's status as the "big brother" in British sports.
Hoy is also a British knight, but unlike others, Hoy is a real knight.
Many people think that the Queen of England often knights others, and almost celebrities will be given knighthoods. But what those people get is actually the Order of the British Empire. This medal is divided into five levels, and only the first two levels can be called. As a "Sir", there are probably tens of thousands of people around the world who have this medal. You can even take photos of a real British Empire Medal online, such as football player Beckham, racing driver Hamilton, and snooker player Hendricks. Li, etc., all they received were this kind of knighthood. Many foreign celebrities, such as Bill Gates, have also received this medal, and celebrities from the Hong Kong and British era have also received this medal. This so-called "jazz" is very civilian, and it is not an exaggeration to say it is a bad street.
But what Hoy received was a serious knighthood. To obtain this kind of medal, you need to kneel in front of the queen like in the film and television works, and then the queen will hold the sword and shake it on both shoulders. It is a formal awarding process. of. There are only a few people who can get this honor. If there are too many people, the queen will get tired and have backache just by swinging the sword.
In British etiquette, when you see a real knight, you have to call him "sir", such as Beckham and Hendry. Although they also have medals, people still call them by their names, not sir, Beckham, and sir Hendry. When you meet Hoy, you have to add "sir" to his name, which is Sir Hoy. This is the difference in status.
To put it bluntly, at the London Olympics, Chris Hoy was the flag of the British delegation!
…
At the Olympic Velodrome, the men's final of the track cycling keirin is about to begin.
After the preliminary rounds and semi-finals, a total of six players qualified for the finals. They are Germany's Levi, New Zealand's Van Verthoven, Netherlands' Mulder, Australia's Perkins, Britain's Hoy and China's Zhang Guan.
In the player preparation area, Hoy glanced at Zhang Guan not far away, his eyes full of fear.
Zhang Guan's attack on the British team had already been a hot topic, so during the preliminaries and rematches, Hoy deliberately went to watch Zhang Guan's games. He already regarded Zhang Guan as his most important competitor.
Facing the upcoming finals, Hoy actually felt nervous in his heart. For Hoy, who is experienced in competitions, he has not encountered this situation for a long time.
"I can't lose!" Hoy took a deep breath and said to himself.
Hoy is the flag bearer for Team GB so he can't lose!
London here is the home ground of the British team, so Hoy can't lose!
In the track cycling keirin, Hoy has won the World Cup and World Championships many times, and even won the gold medal in the last Olympic Games. He is the king of this event and there is no reason for him to lose.
With the belief that he must win, Hoy mounted his car and prepared for the upcoming finals.
…
"Sir Howy! Sir Howy! Sir Howy! Sir Howy..."
The audience at the scene was shouting Hoy's name loudly.
This is not only cheering for Hoy, but also an expression of trust in him.
Because he is Howie! He is the "first brother" of the British delegation! He is the flag bearer of British sport.
All the spectators at the scene firmly believed that Hoy could bring them a victory and bring a gold medal to Britain.
"Sir Hoy will definitely win, he will definitely defeat Zhang Guan!"
"That's right, Sir Hoy, come on, give Zhang Guan some color and let him know that if he dares to steal the gold medal from the British team, he will definitely pay the price!"
"We have already been robbed of seven gold medals by Zhang Guan. How can our British Empire be so easy to bully? Zhang Guan must be taught a lesson! Sir Hoy, it's up to you!"
Whether at the scene or in front of the TV, the British are united. They are looking forward to the moment when Hoy defeats Zhang Guan, and they are looking forward to the moment when Hoy avenges the British team.
Hoy felt pressure and motivation. He was surrounded by expectations and hope. Hoy knew that in the next competition, what he had to keep was not just a gold medal, but the glory of the British Empire!
…
"Sir Hoy should win!" Sebastian looked at the TV, but he was not as confident as other viewers.
Hoy's strength is indeed the best in the world, but among those players who were defeated by Zhang Guan before, which one is not the best in the world? But in the end it wasn’t all a fiasco!
At this moment, Sebastian suddenly felt guilty. If even Hoy lost, then no one in the entire British team could stop Zhang Guan!
…
"Sir Hoy!" Zhang Guan said the name softly.
Zhang Guan naturally recognized Hoy. The two had met at the Lawrence Awards Ceremony and were considered acquaintances.
"Sir Hoy, the 'first brother' of British athletes, the flag of the British delegation!" Zhang Guan glanced at Hoy pretending to be casual. He knew how respected this middle-aged man was in the British sports world. status!
"The flag figure of the British Empire's sports world, what an awe-inspiring title! But today, I want to shoot down this flag!" Zhang Guan's eyes flashed coldly, and he pushed his bicycle towards the track.
