The Los Angeles Olympics are different from previous Olympic Games, which were hosted by the state, and all the expenses were paid by the country, and the least Olympics cost more than one billion dollars, and the Moscow Olympics four years ago set a record of spending four billion dollars.

The Olympics can certainly enhance the image of a country, but because of the huge cost, many facilities built can no longer be used, which has caused a huge waste, so from an economic point of view, the Olympics have always been a loss-making business, such as the Soviet Union may be able to bear this kind of loss, but many small countries are not, the huge financial deficit makes them miserable.

Originally, the budget for the Los Angeles Olympics was also borne by the government, but six years ago, the state of California, where Los Angeles is located, passed a law prohibiting the use of public funds to host the Olympics.

As a result, the Los Angeles Olympics face two fates if the city of Los Angeles cannot provide financial assistance: either the Games are cancelled or they are handed over to the private sector to organize.

In negotiations with the city of Los Angeles, the IOC was finally forced to make concessions, recognizing the exception of the Los Angeles Olympics to private business for the first time.

Since it is hosted by an individual, it means that the cost should be saved, and it is better to make a profit, so don't look at the Olympics in Los Angeles, but in fact, all kinds of facilities are original, anyway, it is a principle: save if you can, save if you can't.

In addition, the responsible persons also tried their best to make money from the Olympics, such as entering into funding agreements with conglomerates, selling television broadcasting rights and competition tickets, reducing various expenses, making full use of existing facilities, and trying not to build stadiums, renting two university dormitories in California for athletes and officials to stay in the Olympic Village, recruiting volunteers to volunteer for the Games, and cooperating with the gambling industry to issue lottery tickets for the Olympic Games.

As long as it is a way to make money, it will be used, for example, in the Los Angeles Convention and Exhibition Center to hold a commodity fair, many companies will rent a booth in order to promote their goods, this cost is not a small amount, the fire family is to rent a booth in the convention and exhibition center, the area is more than 40 square meters, a day of rent is 5,000 US dollars, just more than 20 days to get 100,000 US dollars, some large enterprises rent a larger venue, then the cost is more.

This approach also made the Los Angeles Olympics profitable, and eventually established a new way to host the Olympics in the future.

Liu Lang and these people lived in a university dormitory, the Chinese delegation had a total of more than 300 people, almost chartered a dormitory, they arrived in advance, after getting off the bus, Lu Mingzhi and those officials immediately began to coordinate the allocation of dormitories, it took a whole afternoon for more than 100 people to live in the dormitory.

The meal was arranged by the Olympic Village, and everyone was given a pass card, this kind of electromagnetic card has never been seen in China, and they are at a loss for what to do, Lu Mingzhi also has to take the magnetic card to demonstrate on the side, and everyone knows how to use it after teaching for more than half an hour.

Everyone took the card to the cafeteria to eat, but there was a problem, the cafeteria put most of the food eaten by Westerners, what pizza, steak, salad, fried chicken, etc., some people can make do with it, but there are also many people who are not used to eating, eating is a big problem, if you can't eat enough, how to compete?

Fortunately, there are three cooking masters among the people who came to the sports committee, Lu Mingzhi and others asked the person in charge to coordinate a kitchen, got a lot of pots and pans, and also coordinated the venue of various athletes' competitions.

Coordination and organization work is not something that anyone can do, Liu Lang made up his mind that when his business grows bigger in the future, he must find a capable person like Lu Mingzhi.

Moran was also busy after arriving at the Olympic Village, she was not only Liu Lang's "personal bodyguard", but also the person in charge of the security of the Chinese delegation.

It wasn't until more than seven o'clock in the evening that more than 100 people were completely settled.

This is a student dormitory of a university, and when the students went home during the holidays, the organizing committee renovated the dormitory and turned it into an Olympic village.

Compared with the unified rooms of domestic universities, these dormitories are not the same size, two-person rooms, three-person rooms, four-person rooms, and the most six-person rooms, don't look at the dormitory, but there are all kinds of beds, refrigerators, washing machines, TVs, air conditioners, and an independent bathroom, which is the same as ordinary families, of course, this refers to American families, and there are few people in China who can have such a home.

Many people are curious about such a room, fiddling with the refrigerator, rummaging through the washing machine, and some turn on the TV to watch it, but it is all English programs, and few people can understand it.

Liu Lang and Sun Hu live in a two-person room, next door to Mo Lan, and a female policeman, well, maybe a female soldier.

After a day of tossing, Liu Lang was also very tired, but he was in good spirits, he turned on the TV and watched the news.

"This morning, more than 1,000 demonstrators gathered in front of City Hall to demonstrate that the New York Police Department severely punish a white police officer named Gibson who beat a black man named Russell while on duty a week ago, resulting in serious head injuries The incident caused a large number of local blacks to be dissatisfied, saying that this was an act of racial discrimination, and the incident is constantly fermenting.........

Most of the people in the program were black, some on motorcycles, some on roller skates, and some with slogans and slogans, all with hippie smiling faces.

"These blacks, although they have a hip-hop temperament, are still very concentric, which is much stronger than the Chinese!"

Liu Lang changed another station.

"Today, the New York police raided a house in Brooklyn, and arrested a gang that was selling drugs on the spot, the gang was all black, and seized a kilogram of drugs at the scene, and the person in charge of the operation said that they had the details of a large number of drug dealers in the area, and they could launch an operation at any time to exterminate them, and advised them to stop ......!"

"It's obviously white people smearing black people, although black people are always making trouble, but generally they are just petty fights, and those big gangs are all ruled by white people!"

Liu Lang watched a movie called The Godfather in his previous life, which was written about a gangster in the United States, and the real "bosses" were all whites, and the harm to society of these people was not comparable to that of blacks.

Liu Lang then changed the station.

"Jackson!"

A man in his mid-thirties appeared on TV, none other than the future pop king Michael Jackson, who was dancing his own original dance moves, howling as he danced.

At this time, he was still a black man, and his hair was still very short, and his skin was not as bleached as it was more than twenty years later, making it impossible to recognize his original skin color.

"Liu Lang, this person sings again?"

Sun Hu on the side looked at Jackson inside and was startled, how could this person think like a nervous disorder?

"Brother Sun, he is not an ordinary person, he is the most famous pop singer in the United States!"

Liu Lang smiled.

"It's called a song, it's crazy!"

Sun Hu shook his head again and again.

"Hehe, okay, it's not early, go to bed!"

There are no good programs on TV, and Liu Lang is also tired, Sun Hu got up and turned off the TV and lights, although it was hot outside, but the air conditioner was lit in the house, Liu Lang covered it with a thin blanket, and after a while, he entered the dream.
