Chapter 624: The Great Curtain of the Beijing Olympics Begins
Half a month passed quickly, and at 8 o'clock in the evening of August 8, the long-awaited 29th Summer Olympics was held at the Bird's Nest in Beijing.
At the opening ceremony, more than 90,000 viewers from all over the world, dignitaries from all over the world, and hundreds of millions of viewers in front of the TV, enjoyed this world-renowned oriental event. Although Lao Mouzi's movie has mixed reputations, this year's director's opening mode is still very good in Guo Zizhao's opinion.
In his previous life, Guo Zizhao, as a melon-eating masses, could only complain and marvel in front of the TV. In this life, I can finally participate in person, which also makes Guo Zizhao excited!
Although Guo Zizhao has participated in the Olympic Games twice, this time, it was held in his own country! Especially this time, Guo Zizhao also has a very special identity, that is, the torchbearer of this Olympic Games!
That's right, Guo Zizhao will personally light the cauldron of this Beijing Olympics at this Olympic Games...... Xiangyun!
Speaking of which, Guo Zizhao can become the athlete who lit the cauldron in this Olympic Games, there are really a few twists and turns!
The way the torch was lit at the Olympic Games was originally designed to be the same as in the previous life. According to Lao Mouzi's idea, an athlete would "stroll" around the main venue in the air for a week, and then light the cauldron.
However, there are some differences about who will light the cauldron.
Of course, Lao Mouzi is the first to recommend Guo Zizhao, and now in the international sports world, who else can be as popular as Guo Zizhao? Whether it is in terms of international influence or achievements, Guo Zizhao is a well-known brother in the domestic sports world!
However, like in the previous life, Li Ning, the former "prince of gymnastics", was also pushed out by many people. In everyone's words, Li Ning is also an iconic figure in the Chinese sports industry in the world, and has made indelible contributions to Chinese sports breaking out of Asia and going to the world. Now that we have finally hosted an Olympic Games in our country, we must not forget our roots......
Guo Zizhao has a lot of supporters, but Li Ning's company has also cooperated very closely with China's sports circles over the years, and even the clothing of the Chinese delegation has been provided by Li Ning Company, so this also makes the Olympic Organizing Committee, the General Administration of Sports and Lao Mouzi and others scratch their heads!
……
However, when the news reached Guo Zizhao's ears, Guo Zizhao also rolled his eyes, "Hehe...... It's not just gymnastics that has contributed to Chinese sports! The spirit of the women's volleyball team back then was different and inspired a generation! ”
That's right, if you want to represent the Olympic development process of Chinese sports, Li Ning and Guo Zizhao alone are not enough! Besides, it's too tiring to walk around the field alone in the air, so we can add a few more people! With Guo Zizhao's prompt, other people's brains also turned quickly.
So after a heated discussion, the air track that originally consisted of an athlete circling the field was divided into 8 sections, which were occupied by 8 Olympic events that occupied an important historical position in the Chinese sports world.
So after a week of rehearsals by Guo Zizhao and others, this cauldron relay and lighting method with Chinese characteristics was finally presented to the world today.
"We saw the Olympic flame enter the main venue under the escort of Gao Minmin, a famous former diver of our country, and it is about to enter the most exciting stage, and the cauldron of this Olympic Games is about to be lit." The commentator at the scene also spoke loudly excitedly.
"According to what was revealed in the rehearsal some time ago, the Olympic flame will also be relayed around the stadium in the Bird's Nest Stadium. It is said that 8 athletes will perform the final pass! Which 8 athletes are at the bottom? The answer is about to be revealed! ”
"Xu Haifeng! It's Xu Haifeng! As soon as the commentator's words fell, he suddenly shouted excitedly, "We saw the first athlete who started to pass the line, Xu Haifeng, a former famous shooting athlete in my country!" He took the Olympic flame and he flew up......"
"He flew...... Under the light of the spotlight, Xu Haifeng flew up with the help of Wia. We saw that in the sky above the Bird's Nest, an aerial runway was suddenly lit up. A huge auspicious cloud scroll slowly opened in front of everyone, forming a special air runway, and Xu Haifeng held the Olympic flame, followed closely behind the scroll, and began to run in the air around the field! ”
"Xu Haifeng, a veteran shooter, I guess almost all Chinese have heard his name. He is the first athlete in the history of Chinese shooting to combine the Olympic champion, the world champion, the Asian Games champion and the Asian Championships champion, and he is also the first Chinese person to win Olympic gold medals. ”
The commentator also said excitedly, "At the 23rd Los Angeles Olympic Games in 1984, Xu Haifeng won the first Olympic gold medal for the Chinese sports delegation in history!" From this day on, Chinese athletes have ascended to the international Olympic championship hall! It was also from this day that China's Olympic movement opened a new page! Therefore, it is indeed well deserved for Xu Haifeng to open the first stick lit by the Olympic flame today! ”
……
Looking at Xu Haifeng's figure of more than half a hundred years old "strolling" on the air runway, the commentator couldn't help but say with emotion, "Although Xu Haifeng has long since retired, we can't forget his great contributions to the Chinese shooting team and China's sports industry." ”
"As a traditional advantage of the Chinese team, shooting has always been responsible for winning the first Olympic gold medal for the Chinese sports delegation, and the pressure is unimaginable. Since the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games, the Chinese shooting team has won 14 Olympic gold medals for the country in the previous Olympic Games, becoming a well-known pioneer of the Chinese Olympic team! We have reason to believe that in this Olympic Games, the Chinese shooting team will once again have frequent successes, opening a good start for us in the gold medal competition! ”
Now, we see that Xu Haifeng has slowly stopped after nearly 100 meters of "flying eaves and walking on the wall", and the second athlete has risen, let's see who he is? It's Li Ning! "Prince of Gymnastics" Li Ning! The commentator's excited voice sounded again, "Li Ning took over the Olympic flame from Xu Haifeng's hands, and also followed closely behind the auspicious cloud scroll and started to walk in the air again!" ”
"Prince of Gymnastics" Li Ning, I believe this name will be familiar to everyone! In the eighties of the last century, Li Ning once created a myth in the history of world gymnastics. In the 6th World Cup Gymnastics Competition in 1982, Li Ning won 6 of the 7 gold medals in the men's event alone, and was called the "Prince of Gymnastics" by the world sports world! ”
"Moreover, at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, Li Ning won 3 golds, 2 silvers and 1 bronze for the Chinese sports delegation, not only becoming the idol of the people across the country, but also once becoming the player with the most gold medals and medals won by Chinese athletes in an Olympic Games."
Speaking of this, the commentator couldn't help but admire, "Li Ning's name and his achievements, whether as a monument in the Chinese gymnastics world or as an iconic figure of the Chinese sports delegation, have become a mark of the times and an indispensable part of the development of Chinese sports!" ”
"And Chinese gymnastics, as an old advantage of my country, has won a total of 13 gold medals for the Chinese team in the previous Olympic Games. I believe that in this Olympic Games, our gymnasts will be able to learn from their predecessors and once again attack the gold medal. ”
"Okay, we saw that the rolling auspicious cloud scroll slowly stopped again, and Li Ning's vigorous figure also began to slow down. Our "Prince of Gymnastics" also completed his own torch relay, which one will pass the flame next? ”
