Chapter 155 Proud and Frustrated

"Get up, people who don't want to be slaves, build a new Great Wall with our flesh and blood..."

The March of the Volunteers resounded through the swimming pool for the fifth time, and many Chinese audiences still followed Gao Shen hoarsely.

In such an impactful scene, Wu Shaozhu seemed a little absent-minded and sang a little out of tune.

It's not that he's not patriotic, it's that 75 billion makes it hard to calm down.

Fortunately, the audience was enthusiastic, so I wasn't afraid of being distracted by him.

After the flag-raising ceremony, Gao Shen and Perkins shook hands politely, and then interacted with the audience with two gold medals.

Audiences are free to ask for autographs, and they try their best to satisfy their requests for group photos, and occasionally chat with reporters.

He is approachable and approachable, without the airs of a superstar at all.

Ding Qiang is wearing a silver medal, although only the Chinese audience took a photo with him, he is also satisfied.

If you occasionally accept interviews, you must be grateful to God.

Recognizing the source of strength, the silver medal is actually quite good. After all, without a high spirit, it is difficult to even appear in the international arena, let alone win the silver medal in the Olympics.

Next to him, Australia's Perkins, the third runner-up in the 1500m freestyle, looked at Gao Shen's back and then looked down at the bronze medal in his hand. The more he looked, the more glaring he felt.

Shit bronze medal, there is an egg for it.

Perkins was so angry that he quickly walked to the trash can and threw the bronze medal into it.

"Shh~"

"I can't afford to lose~"

"Unsportsmanlike Australian criminal!"

"pick it up!"

The audience immediately expressed their dissatisfaction loudly.

Probably because he didn't expect someone to pay attention to him, Perkins was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and left.

There was no point in picking up the bronze medal at all.

The audience was even more dissatisfied.

Yes, bronze medals are indeed not as valuable as gold medals, but they are also a symbol of the Olympics. Wouldn't this be trampling on sportsmanship?

The media immediately moved the camera away from Gao Shen and chased after him.

Perkins was so fast that he didn't give the reporters a chance to chase and intercept him, and he ran away without a trace.

The reporters surrounded Gaoshen while notifying colleagues to go to the Australian station to block people.

But if there is trouble, it is definitely right to ask Gaoshen for a few words.

"I understand his feelings, but I don't agree with his actions." Gao Shen didn't chase after him.

It's really not necessary.

At the last Barcelona Olympics, an athlete from the Commonwealth of Independent States also threw away the silver medal on the spot, and then was sprayed and retired.

If you want to say that you are wronged, you are not wronged at all. After all, this is a performance that you can't afford to lose. If you want to say that you deserve it, the silver and bronze medals are really worthless, and it is understandable to feel upset.

"After all, this is something he worked hard for, so it can be regarded as an explanation. Of course, he has the power and freedom to deal with his own things, but this is undoubtedly unsportsmanlike.

Look at our two athletes and Birdgraf, they are also very happy. "

If there is no cheating, winning the swimming silver medal is a historic breakthrough, and there is really no need to be unhappy.

Also a bronze medalist, Belgium's Bodegraaf has a better mentality.

Seeing that Gao Shen said a bunch of meaningless nonsense, the reporters stopped asking questions and started interviewing other people instead.

"Before the game, it was generally believed that I would win the gold medal, but I missed it, which is really disappointing.

However, the silver medal was also earned by me. It is a symbol of honor. I can't just throw it away, even if it is not very valuable. "

Chen Yan's answer is basically the answer of Chinese athletes.

A good guy, not a bad character.

But the fourth-ranked British player Smith is not polite: "For such behaviors that trample on the Olympic spirit, the Olympic Committee should issue sanctions and deprive him of his achievements, as an example to others."

Well, depriving Perkins of his achievements, he can win the award as a substitute, there is no problem with this argument.

Italy's Brumbila sprayed a little lighter, but also told the truth.

"If he didn't think the bronze medal was acceptable, why did he come to the competition?

Just ask the athletes at the scene, who can beat Gao Shen?A bronze medal is already a good achievement.

If this result is unacceptable, I suggest that he retire, because at most he can get a silver medal, and it is absolutely impossible to get a silver medal. "

As for Masato Hirano from Little Japan, he was speechless: "It's unbelievable that he threw away the bronze medal. He should know how many athletes regret their whole lives for a medal."

Although they are Asian opponents, Japanese swimming is actually similar to that of China, and it is hard to find a card.

Of course, now that the Chinese team is bigger, the Japanese can only watch helplessly.

This kind of envy, jealousy, and hatred made his eyes turn red when he looked at other people's bronze medals. Naturally, he could not understand Perkins' behavior of throwing away the bronze medal.

In fact, Birdgraf has the most say on this matter, because he is the third runner-up in the men's 200-meter breaststroke.

"I have nothing to say. Anyway, I cherish this medal very much. It is an honor worth remembering."

That’s all for now, as for how to interpret it, that’s up to the reporters.

After all, the arena is also a field of human affection, if it is not an enemy, there is no need to add insult to injury.

If it was Mark Horton who was just born, Gao Shen would never be so understated.

When it comes to Gatling and blue light jetting, I will never stop jetting until I retire.

After a while of commotion, the vehicle arranged by the organizing committee finally arrived.

Well, because they had to bring their own dry food and work overtime, there were fewer and fewer volunteers, and most of the commuter bus drivers from the organizing committee also traveled, which caused huge difficulties for the athletes' travel.

The most intuitive phenomenon is that after the game is over, athletes cannot leave immediately, and need to leave in a group.

Of course, if you have your own car, you can go wherever you want.

It's a pity that before coming to Atlanta, no one could have imagined that the organization of the Olympic Games could be so rubbish. It would not be easy to find a car after discovering the problem.

In order to ensure safety, all unapproved vehicles are not allowed to go on the road. Some delegations have tried to apply for a permit, and it may take ten days and a half months. The Olympic Games should be over after the application.

There are also athletes who choose to walk, but they all do it as a warm-up before the game. After the game, they are basically in an overdrawn state, and they really can't walk.

So, when the car came, everyone rushed over in a swarm and crowded on the car frantically.

Seats are limited, first come, first served, last served standing, if you don't want to stand, just wait for the next bus.

There is no such thing as ladies first, first come, first served.

The athletes who managed to get on the bus cursed at the organizing committee and watched the Chinese swimming team line up to get on the bus with envy and hatred.

The Chinese delegation decided to book a hotel early, and naturally prepared a commuter car early, so there was no need to worry about commuting.

"We should advise the IOC to prepare vehicles in advance."

"Come on, we are not tall, no one has prepared everything for us."

"The gang of bureaucrats who eat vegetarian meals with corpses should be cut into seppuku collectively."

Athletes feel even worse.

The arena is better than being mentally prepared. After the game, you have to stay on the scene to watch the Chinese athletes wear gold and silver. It is simply serving shrimp and pig hearts.

Then look at the logistics support, which further reflects what it means that there is no harm without comparison.

His mentality completely collapsed, and he wished he could take Gatlin to the organizing committee.
