Chapter 551: This TM is also OK! ?
Latest URL: On the last day of September, the entire Olympic schedule is coming to an end, and the remaining events can be counted with two hands.
But at this time, the ranking on the medal table was unexpectedly fierce, and the Sino-Soviet war intensified at the end of the event—
1. Soviet Union: 42 gold, 23 silver and 26 copper.
2. China: 42 gold, 16 silver and 14 copper.
3. United States: 31 gold, 20 silver and 27 copper.
4. East Germany: 21 gold, 14 silver and 20 bronze.
5. West Germany: 10 gold, 10 silver and 9 bronze.
6. South Korea: 7 gold, 6 silver and 9 bronze.
South Korea can be crossed out from the list at this time, and it is meaningless to bring it in again. Now the "Sino-Soviet War" is the real grand finale. In addition, adding up the two Germanys to fight against the United States can be regarded as half a watch point.
Of course, the Americans don't want to make such a comparison, because the United States can't even keep its position as the third child.
Although they have the same number of gold medals as the two Germans combined, they will be at a disadvantage due to the loss of the total number of medals in the future. Wouldn't the real ranking of the United States become fourth?
As soon as this idea came up, all Americans couldn't help but shudder. They couldn't accept the fact that they could only rank fourth in the Olympics.
But Americans can rest assured that this kind of gimmick will never become a news hotspot in this Olympic Games where accidents occur frequently.
Don't talk about the war of virtue the next day, even the confrontation between China and the Soviet Union was not paid attention to, including a series of visions last night, which did not grab the headlines, because everyone turned their attention from the explosions of the previous few days to last night. Ina's drug test scandal!
To be precise, it should be a "violent anti-prosecution incident"!
Early this morning, a somewhat desperate TV station in South Korea exposed this violent protest!
In fact, the whole process is not complicated. After the competition last night, the "Special Inspection Committee" temporarily established by the Olympic Organizing Committee appointed an authorized anti-doping organization to go to Joyner's residence in the Olympic Village that night. Check out the flight!
This unannounced inspection should have been premeditated, because this anti-doping organization not only sent a "main inspector", a "blood inspector", and a "urine inspector", but also a "special inspection committee" "The two officials sent out even brought a local TV station to film, which is much more formal than a certain unannounced inspection in the original plane.
Joyner, his agent, and the officials of the US Track and Field Team were obviously a little caught off guard in the face of such impeccable flying inspections, and even some panic could be seen from the camera!
Joyner's agent was the first to calm down, and immediately asked the testing party to provide a power of attorney and documents, including personal identification, and also asked the TV station not to conduct recordings and interviews.
But this Bangzi TV station just turned off the machine desperately, and there was still audio recording for the subsequent follow-up shooting. After all, the manager only asked not to shoot, but he didn't refuse to record!
After Joyner's team checked the testing personnel's complete certificates and power of attorney, they couldn't think of an excuse for refusing the test. Joyner had to conduct blood and urine tests as required!
But the accident happened when the inspection team was about to leave. Joyner's manager, as well as several officials and consultants of the US track and field team who came after hearing the news, suddenly stormed up and snatched the test samples. It was forcibly thrown into the toilet and destroyed.
According to the testing team's subsequent recollection of this shocking scene, even Joyner herself turned pale with fright. Basically, except for her team, as well as the officials and consultants of the US Track and Field Team, the entire testing party was shocked by this scene. The unexpected accident made him at a loss, and he failed to prevent the other party from destroying the test samples.
But even if they can react, it is estimated that they will not be able to prevent the Americans from destroying the samples, because the target of this unannounced inspection is female athletes, so except for the main inspector who is male, the other two blood inspectors and urine inspectors are all female. Including the two officials sent by the "Special Inspection Committee", the TV station's two-person film crew also has one woman each. This combination of more women than men is powerless to resist against the Americans with big waists.
The "Special Inspection Committee" is very angry about this, you Americans are too rampant, right? Are you really the only one in this world?
Wu Jie was actually very angry, because this matter sounds so familiar, but it is so different!
Now he wants to see how the media around the world will follow up and report on this violent anti-prosecution incident? What kind of excuses will the Americans find for themselves? How will the final result be different from another similar but different event in the original plane?
But these questions will definitely not be resolved in a day or two, and they have to focus on the final stage of the game for the time being.
The relationship between the US team's resistance to the inspection and their relationship is not small, but it is not particularly big, because a gold medal has not yet formed a decisive effect on the outcome of the Sino-Soviet war.
Now the Chinese delegation has no individual events. Apart from two track and field relays, there are several big ball events.
This morning there will be a semi-final of the "Women's 4x100m Relay" and a semi-final of "Men's 4x100m Relay". In the afternoon there will be the "Men's Volleyball Final". The final, and the much-anticipated "men's football final".
Wu Jie doesn't really care whether Zhang Nianzhen's silver medal can be turned into a gold medal, it's because there are four gold medals up for grabs today, and they have a lot of confidence in these four events, winning these gold medals now is the only way to surpass the Soviet Union key.
The Soviets had two more finals than them today, but the confidence in each of the six finals is not very high, so Wu Jie is very confident that he will formally overtake the Soviets today.
In the morning, the semi-finals of the "Women's 4x100m Relay" started first. The Chinese team ran first, but there was no Soviet Union in the same group, so they were in the same group as the US team.
The Americans are now much more embarrassed than the Soviets. A few days ago, they fantasized about staging a "comeback from the Jedi", and even hoped to bring down China and the Soviet Union together.
But this bubble was burst yesterday. Looking at the remaining projects today, there are less than ten projects. That means that even if the Americans can sweep the end of the game, they can’t surpass the top two in theory. up.
However, the Americans still want to win this gold medal. However, the violent anti-examination incident last night made the US team mentally sluggish today, and the morale of the whole team sank to the bottom under the influence of Joyner.
Of course Wu Jie knew why this happened. In fact, the US team also knew that it would be difficult for Joyner to escape punishment for resisting the inspection, and it was not without proof and authorization that he came to the inspection. This kind of reaction can only mean that she probably has a ghost in her heart.
The most important thing is that according to the Olympic doping regulations, once a player tests positive afterwards, not only the results obtained in individual events will be cancelled, but also the results in team events will also be invalidated.
The emotions of the American players are affected by the consecutive sitting regulations. They feel that even if they win the championship today, if Joyner is tested for doping in the future, their gold medals will also be taken back. So why is there any need to work hard?
The U.S. track and field team is prone to problems in the relay competition, and now the mentality of the players is like this, so the performance in the competition can be imagined.
The Chinese team is working together, especially Zhang Nianzhen, who is the third runner-up. Under the competition system that can be started first, her weakness in the starting stage has been greatly weakened, but her strong cornering skills have been further strengthened.
Today the Chinese team did not arrange for Zhang Nianzhen to run the last leg. Her performance in the 200 meters was obviously stronger than that in the 100 meters, mainly because the first half of the 200 meters race was a curve, and her speed at this stage can be analyzed after the fact. Faster than Joiner.
Therefore, considering that the first leg and the third leg of the "4x100-meter relay" are both running curves, the third leg is the most suitable position for Zhang Nianzhen at this stage.
Zhang Nianzhen also lived up to the expectations of the team. After the Chinese team fell behind the US team and East Germany in the first two clubs, they successfully overtook Zhang Nianzhen in the third club.
But it is a pity that Wei Jingyi's last shot faced the somewhat haggard Joyner, but she still failed to hold the advantage and was overtaken, and finally ranked second in the group with a time of 42.35 seconds.
At this time, the four Chinese girls on the field were a little disappointed, but Wu Jie felt that this performance was already good. It was enough to win a bronze medal in the original plane, and a quick loss in the final was enough to compete with East Germany for the second place. .
In fact, it is enough for them to get second. Next, the US team can be canceled. If not, a silver medal has already broken through history.
Of course, his requirements for the men's team are much higher. After all, there are two of his own people there.
After the semifinals of the "Women's 4x100m Relay" ended, the semifinals of the "Men's 4x100m Relay" also started an hour later, and the Chinese team was the last to run.
After Zhao Haidong appeared on the stage, he felt calm and confident, but also a little humble, a very perfect Chinese character.
Gong Xiaoya is still that playful, flamboyant and frivolous with his heels not touching the ground, looks unreliable and has an edge that makes some people uncomfortable.
As soon as these two people showed up, audiences in many countries lost confidence immediately, and always felt that most of their teams were not opponents.
The American audience was very unconfident. Their team almost failed to advance due to a mistake in the preliminaries. When they saw the Chinese team at this time, their eyelids jumped, and they always felt that something bad was going to happen.
The feeling of the Chinese audience is exactly the opposite. If these two people stand on the court, it means that the championship is stable.
Wu Jie is not so optimistic. After all, this Chinese team is a 2+2 combination. The level of the latter two has been played to the extreme. In fact, it is the level of running into the semi-finals of the individual competition. This depends on the performance of players from other countries. Only bad will do.
Therefore, if you want to win the relay race, you must first rely on the two big brothers to run enough advantages, and then hope to use the tacit understanding to gain some advantages in the handover, so that you can be sure to hit the championship.
But the reason why the relay race is good is that there is always a probability of a mistake on the baton in each relay. This kind of uncertainty makes every game full of suspense. Didn't even make it to the finals.
The American audience crazily cursed that the Chinese team made a mistake in front of the TV, preferably an irreparable mistake like dropping a stick!
However, what these people didn't expect was that there was an accident of dropping the stick after the game started, but it was not the Chinese team that made such a major mistake, but the US team, which ranked first in hard power.
But this does not seem to be considered unexpected, because the US track and field team, which has always been outstanding in personal ability, but loses the chain from time to time in teamwork, has a probability of falling into this dilemma.
Today's semi-final started, the Americans completely screwed up. When Calvin Smith, the first batter, handed over the baton to his teammate Samuel Gratti, who was the second batter, the baton fell directly due to a coordination error. on the ground.
This scene caused the American audience on the scene and in front of the TV to cover their eyes one after another. Everyone knew that such a mistake in the relay race must be the bottom. the result of the name.
So the U.S. team did not choose to do this. All four players hugged their heads in frustration, or squatted down and patted the track to vent their emotions.
But at this time, the live broadcast cameras of various countries did not pay attention to the American team that disappeared from the screen at all. At this time, the leading Chinese team relied on the advantage created by Gong Xiaoya's first bat, and successfully continued to lead after the handover of the second and third bats.
At this time, the French team, which already had two black players, followed closely behind, but as the same 2+2 lineup, this French team may not be as good as China in terms of hard power. On the contrary, it can be seen from the expansion of the advantage that his time of about 10.30 seconds is barely considered a world famous player in this era.
The Chinese team still did not make mistakes in the handover of three or four sticks. After Zhao Haidong rushed out of the handover area, he was like a runaway wild horse. No one could catch up with the man who had just regained the gold medal in the individual competition and set a new world record. The Chinese trapeze.
"37.70 seconds!"
"Unbelievable, they are faster than in the preliminaries!"
"Damn, this is too close to the world record!"
"Haha, the Americans didn't even make it to the finals, so you still call yourself the track and field kingdom?"
"..."
The Chinese team ranked first in the two groups, not only successfully advanced to the final, but also got the best pass.
But everyone didn't seem too happy. The main reason was that the relay race was too uncertain, just like the American team's hard power was definitely above them, but because of successive mistakes, they couldn't even make it to the finals.
So what everyone thinks is that you can't take it lightly in the finals, otherwise one mistake will ruin the previous efforts!
"Wait, what is the US team doing over there?"
The Chinese team greeted each other~lightnovelpub.net~ when they were about to leave the field, but saw the American team, which should have left first, actually returned to the field at this time.
Seeing this, Zhao Haidong and Gong Xiaoya were puzzled. This should be the last match in the morning, so what are the Americans doing?
A few people were wondering, when the team leader sent a bad news—just now the US team thought it was the interference of the Italian team, and Calvin Smith's stick fell to the ground, so they wanted to appeal for a re-run.
This petition, which is unimaginable and almost impossible to pass in the eyes of all countries, actually announced on the spot that the US team's petition was successful after the ruling of the organizing committee! ?
But this is not the key point. The key point is that after the Olympic Organizing Committee passed the appeal application of the US team, only the US team re-run the rematch? ? ?
"This TM is also okay?"
All the countries that entered the finals were stupefied, especially the Soviet team that did not perform well and advanced to the finals in eighth place. At this time, they had already rushed to the organizing committee to protest!
