All-round Athlete

Chapter 52

Only then did Zhang Guan realize that these two people came to Xingshi to inquire about their crimes.

Zhang Guan calmed down in an instant, and said: "You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. You red mouth and white teeth say that I made a mistake and you have to be punished. May I ask what mistake I made? You have to do it." Make it clear, you have to let me understand, and if there is anything unwarranted, you must punish me!"

"Didn't you admit it just now?" Director Zhao said.

"I just admitted that I went to the betting shop to buy lottery tickets, but I never said that I made a mistake." Zhang Guan said.

"Buying a lottery ticket is your mistake." Director Zhao stared at Zhang Guan: "Speaking of it small, you are violating the discipline of our delegation; speaking of it big, you are tarnishing the image of the country!"

"Wait a minute, let's make things clear first. Every time I leave the Olympic Village, I report to the regiment headquarters, and you all approve it. We have records to check. I never leave the other times. Pass the Olympic Village." Zhang Guan said.

"Then how do you explain why you went to buy a lottery ticket?" Officer Zhao asked.

"After familiarizing myself with the venue, the return shuttle bus will take a long time to leave, so go shopping around and buy some souvenirs. There are so many athletes in our national team, and I am not the only one who has bought souvenirs. You can't just trouble me Let's go!" Zhang Guan said.

"Souvenir? Have you ever seen someone buy a lottery ticket as a souvenir?" Director Zhao obviously did not accept this answer.

"What's so special about this? There are commemorative coin collectors, postage stamp collectors, postcard collectors, cigarette case collectors, sticker collectors, and even cards for crisp noodles. I collect lottery tickets from various countries. What's the problem! Besides, I said it all, I bought it myself to win, but this lottery ticket has my name on it, think about how my name is on the lottery ticket for the Athens Olympic Games, how commemorative and collectible it is!" Zhang Guan Start talking nonsense.

"That's right...wrong! You need to buy hundreds of copies for collection!" Officer Zhao said immediately.

"How do they even know this?" Zhang Guan simply went all out. After all, he already had millions of euros in his hands. Each person gets one free, so buy more. I spend money to save face for myself, it’s not enough!"

"You..." Director Zhao was pissed off by this scoundrel's statement, but he couldn't find any words to refute it.

At this time, the older Director Guo finally spoke up, his expression and tone were so severe: "Zhang Guan, you are making too much sense! With your current attitude, I can use your moral character But pass, you will be cleared from the national team!"

Director Guo is of course not qualified to kick Zhang Guan out of the national team, but he thought Zhang Guan was only eighteen years old, so he started to scare Zhang Guan, but he didn't expect that Zhang Guan had no fear, he just sneered, his expression was full of disdain.

Director Guo felt the disdain on Zhang Guan's expression, he was a little angry, and then said in a stern tone: "Others bought souvenirs, you are better off, go to fight. Fighting is against the law and you will go to jail!"

Director Guo thought that the word "prison" could scare Zhang Guan, but he didn't expect Zhang Guan to be even more disdainful. He sneered and said, "Please don't change the concept secretly. I bought the lottery tickets issued by regular channels in a regular company." , This does not violate the law. Besides, our country also has welfare lotteries and sports lotteries, and also sells lottery tickets, such as double color ball, big lottery, and scratch lottery. How many people buy it? You have the ability to send them all to jail!"

Director Zhao next to him looked at Director Guo helplessly. This Director Guo will retire to the second line in more than a year, and his thinking is still at the level of the last century. He thinks that fabricating a serious consequence can scare people. However, now that we have entered the Internet age, all kinds of information can be found on the Internet, and young people are no longer the kind of people who were easily intimidated 20 or 30 years ago and immediately became obedient.

"Don't get excited." Director Zhao came out to smooth things over, and then continued: "Zhang Guan, let's put aside the matter of your buying lottery tickets. Just talking about the consequences of this matter has already brought a lot to our Olympic delegation. Negative impact! Our Olympic delegation represents the entire country, so we should be more strict with ourselves, abide by the law and show our best side to the world. But your behavior has seriously discredited our delegation The overall image of..."

"Please wait." Zhang Guan interrupted Director Guo: "I still don't understand, what does my buying lottery tickets have to do with the negative image you mentioned? Is buying lottery tickets a shameful thing in Greece?" ?”

"It seems that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin!" Director Guo took out several newspapers from his bag and threw them to Zhang Guan: "You can read it yourself!"

"My English is not good enough, I don't know it, please translate for me." Zhang Guan threw the newspaper back again.

"You can go to the betting shop by yourself, but you still don't know these few words of English?" Director Guo said with a displeased face.

Zhang Guan chuckled, and said, "I can only talk, I don't know how to read. Besides, buying lottery tickets mainly depends on hand gestures. I gestured to him for this newspaper, but he didn't understand, so I have to translate it for you."

Director Zhao reluctantly picked up the newspaper, pointed to one of the news items and said, "This is a reprint of The Times. Do you know that The Times is the largest media in the UK. It says..."

Director Zhao translated the general content of the newspaper to Zhang Guan, and while Zhang Guan was listening, he began to analyze in his mind.

"How did the reporter know, who leaked the news? The basketball team? Impossible, they are all from their own, and they will not betray me. Moreover, the basketball team only knows that I bought Iraq to win 4:2 against Portugal, and they don't even know that I played against Portugal. Bet heavily on buying yourself to win the championship; OPAP gambling company? It’s impossible. Although OPAP has my information and can find out my betting, European gaming companies have always paid attention to protecting the privacy of customers. Leaking customer privacy is not a problem in Europe. Big scandal, OPAP has no reason to do this, and they don't know that I am an athlete, and I don't believe that the national team has such a great ability to get through the relationship with OPAP; that accountant named Flegoskes? It should not be him, this guy see Looks very professional, and he also doesn't know that I'm betting heavily on myself to win. So who is it?"

Zhang Guan carefully recalled the process of going to the betting shop, and suddenly remembered a person.

"That BBC reporter! What's his name? Forgot! But it must be him! The news only mentioned that I bet heavily on myself to win the championship, but it didn't mention that I bought the Iraqi football team, so there is only this reporter At the betting shop that day, he should have conducted a random interview. At that time, he didn’t know that I was Zhang Guan, and thought that I was supporting his compatriots. I made a big bet on winning the championship, and then I got these reports. This reporter is so idle. Every day so many people win the championship and break records. Show off."

Zhang Guan kept greeting BBC reporter Bell in his heart, but at the same time he was also thinking about how to deal with it.

Officer Zhao finished translating the contents of several newspapers, and Director Guo's face softened a little, he said: "Young people, it is inevitable to make mistakes, but if you make mistakes, you must have the courage to admit and take responsibility. If you know your mistakes, you can correct them." , This is a good comrade! So Xiao Zhang, you must first recognize your mistakes now, and you must know how serious the negative impact your actions have brought on the image of the country, that is, you must know the seriousness of your mistakes. Seriously review, how about this, I think you write a review first..."

"Write the inspection? If you write it, it's right and I'm wrong. Then you can punish me as you want, do you think I'm stupid?" Zhang Guan sneered in his heart, he interrupted Director Guo's words again, and said Said: "These foreign newspapers are nothing more than saying that I can't win the Olympic Games. I don't know if Director Guo and Director Zhao think I can win the gold medal in the 100-meter sprint?"

"Of course you don't..." Director Guo's voice stopped suddenly. Although he thought Zhang Guan could not win the Olympic gold medal in the 100-meter sprint, he couldn't say it out loud. After all, he is an official in the delegation. In his capacity, even if there is no hope at all, he can't give up without saying a battle.

Director Guo coughed dryly, changed his voice, and continued in an official tone: "There is hope, of course. In the race, we must not give up a glimmer of hope, and we must run out of our tenacity! But the 100-meter race is as strong as clouds, If you want to win the championship in this event, it is extremely difficult."

Zhang Guan pointed to the newspaper on the table, and said: "But these newspapers swear that I can't win the championship. Director Guo, you just said that I still have hope to win the championship, that is to say, Director Guo I also agree that what was said in these newspapers is incorrect.”

"This..." Director Guo felt that his mind, which was not very bright, was a little distracted.

Zhang Guan went on to say: "For example, "The Times" satirizes our country with the feudal and backward Manchu Qing Dynasty. This is definitely a slander to our good life now. There is also "Freeman", which is full of racial discrimination. , This is an absolute disregard for human rights. Do the two leaders think what I said is right?"

"But..." Director Guo was just about to refute, but Zhang Guan didn't give him this chance.

I only heard Zhang Guan continue to say: "If the two leaders ask our propaganda department, they should know that although these European newspapers are all big media in Europe, they are also hardcore anti-China media, and they often exaggerate some false news. Slandering our country and pouring dirty water on us, these European media have always hated us and our rise."

"But now, these media must know that I am in a very good state, and they are worried that my winning the 100-meter sprint will boost our country's international image, so they deliberately publish this kind of article, disrupting the audiovisual, and using it to affect my reputation. The state of the game to achieve their goals! I firmly believe that the leaders of our delegation are wise, and they will definitely not be sobering because of the anti-China media! Besides, do foreigners say that I am a bad guy, and I am really a bad guy? Does the Ministry think that it should use the false reports of foreign newspapers as the basis for punishing its own athletes?"

After Zhang Guan finished speaking, he looked at Director Guo and Director Zhao with a smile on his face. The two obviously wanted to talk, but they didn't know where to start. They were caught by Zhang Guan's logic for a while.

Whether it is "The Times", "Berliner Zeitung" or "Freeman", it is true that some anti-China remarks have been published for a long time. This kind of Cold War mentality has lasted for decades, and it is impossible to change it in a short time, and ideology determines Europe. The vast majority of the media will lean towards an anti-China stance.

Director Guo and Officer Zhao both work in the public house. For those who live in the public house, any anti-China media must say something wrong. This is the most basic position. As an official, you can make mistakes and make mistakes, but the general direction must be correct, and you must stand in the right position.

And Zhang Guan insisted that he was the champion of the 100-meter sprint, and Director Guo and Director Zhao were speechless. Regardless of media commentators or ordinary people, they can say to Zhang Guan, "You are not good", "You are very good", "You are bragging", "You can't win the championship", etc., but the officials of the Olympic delegation cannot say, at least You can never say that before the game.

Officer Zhao thought about it carefully, and suddenly felt that what Zhang Guan said was quite reasonable. When Director Zhao first saw these reports, he also preconceived that Zhang Guan had made a mistake, which was why he was attacked by foreign media. But now that he thinks about it carefully, these foreign media are indeed not good things. As Zhang Guan said, it is obviously not suitable to use foreign media reports as a basis for punishing athletes from one's own country.

But Director Guo didn't think so.

Director Guo will be retiring to the second line in more than a year. At this time, people's thinking is very strange. Some people will gradually learn to let go, while some people cherish the power in their hands even more, and want to go crazy one last time. Bundle.

And Zhang Guan has been confronting Director Guo tit for tat, making Director Guo feel ashamed of himself. Director Guo feels that although he has more than a year to retire, he is still in his position anyway, and it is not yet time for people to leave the tea. Director Guo would never tolerate the kind of behavior that would be followed when he was about to retreat. Moreover, Zhang Guanfei not only refused to write the inspection as required by Director Guo, but also directly pushed Director Guo back. Director Guo felt that his authority was being blatantly contemptuous, which he could never tolerate. In Director Guo's eyes, this matter was no longer a dispute between right and wrong, but a challenge to his power that had only been left for more than a year. question.

...

Director Guo walked out of the athlete's apartment with a depressed expression on his face. Zhang Guan refuses to admit his mistakes, and also refuses to write an inspection. Director Guo really has nothing to do now.

"I don't believe I can't deal with you, a little athlete!" Director Guo already had a plan in mind.

Officer Zhao next to him didn't know Director Guo's thoughts. He said inappropriately: "I think what Zhang Guan said has some truth, but it is really not very appropriate to accuse our own athletes based on foreign media reports. I think Why don't you criticize him verbally, let him pay attention to the influence in the future, at least cover his face and wear a mask, don't let the foreign media take advantage of it..."

"No!" Director Guo glared at Director Zhao, and then said: "Such a big commotion has become the laughing stock of foreigners, and it has caused such a bad international impact. He will be punished for whatever he says. If he If he has a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, we can still say a few good words to him, but you see his current attitude, he has not recognized his mistakes at all, I think he should be punished heavily!"

Director Zhao was stunned, he felt something was wrong, but Director Guo had a higher position after all, so Director Zhao had no choice but to ask, "What do you mean, Director Guo?"

"Demerits must be recorded, major demerits must be recorded, criticism must be reported, and he will be suspended from competition after returning home!" Director Guo continued: "This matter is very serious, we must make an example!"

That's right, he made director Guo unhappy, so of course he wanted to make an example...
