Chapter 765: Guo Zizhao made a move
"Huh...... I know, thank you for your concern! Guo Zizhao also sincerely expressed his gratitude to Minister Liu Peng for his reminder, but because he had a system task, he was really unable to participate in the election this time.
"I really don't have much interest in politics! Since I didn't run for election before, and the country now has a suitable candidate, it is not suitable for me to compete with everyone this time. Guo Zizhao could only say apologetically, "However, I have a good relationship with Fredericks, and I think he will give me a face for this Diamond League incident." ”
Guo Zizhao is talking about former Namibian sprinter Fredericks, a veteran who became an IAAF athletes' commissioner during the 2003 World Championships in Paris. During the Athens Olympics, because Guo Zizhao did not participate in the election, Fredericks also successfully became an athlete member of the International Olympic Committee as a sprinter.
After the Athens Olympics, Fredericks officially retired and devoted all his energy to the work of the IOC and IAAF. The veteran was also a successful official, becoming the IAAF's Athletes' Commission President two years later, and last year he was elected IOC Athletes' Commission Chair and IOC Executive Board Member.
It can be said that Fredericks has also become the official spokesperson of athletes in the Olympic Committee and the IAAF.
In addition to Fredericks, Guo Zizhao also has a good relationship with Popov, vice president of the IOC Athletes' Commission. Both of them have the same opinion on high-tech swimsuits, and Popov also contributed to the official ban on the use of high-tech swimsuits by FINA this year.
And don't forget, there are many top sprinters who have been trained at Kwok's International Athletics Training Camp, and the preferences of these athletes can also greatly influence the IAAF's choice. Therefore, Guo Zizhao is also full of confidence in the competition for the Diamond League site this time.
"Good...... Then since you don't want to run for election, forget it. Director Liu Peng also shook his head with a little regret, and then said, "In the competition of the Diamond League site, we are all working hard, if this time the capital can successfully win a site, then next year's bid for the 2015 World Championships in Athletics will be considered a success!" ”
……
The 11th National Games ended successfully, and as Guo Zizhao expected, Zhang Peimeng became the most dazzling one in the men's sprint event of the National Games, and became the best male athlete of the National Games as the "Triple Crown".
Well, the best male athletes in the first two National Games were taken away by Guo Zizhao, and now it is Zhang Peimeng's turn, which can be regarded as the same lineage! At the same time, the performance of Zhang Peimeng and Lao Yi also made everyone full of confidence in Guo Zizhao's track and field club.
However, less than a week after the end of the National Games, when the aftermath of the shock caused by Guo Zizhao's track and field club in the domestic track and field world has not subsided, a series of things that happened in the international track and field world have made everyone feel Guo Zizhao's huge energy.
At the beginning of November, the General Administration and the Athletics Management Center officially submitted an application to the IAAF, hoping that the two cities of Beijing and Modu could become the host cities of the Diamond League. And just when several Chinese members of the IAAF began to woo their relations for public relations, Guo Zizhao also began to take action.
Two days later, Guo Zizhao also expressed his opinion in an interview with an internationally renowned sports media, "Chinese track and field has made positive contributions to international sprinting events in recent years. With the heritage of the two cities of Beijing and Magic City, they are fully capable of hosting the two matches of the Diamond League. The success of the Beijing Olympics and the popularity of the Modu International Athletics Grand Prix are enough to prove all this! ”
"I think that the two cities of Beijing and Magic City are the best choices to host the Diamond League in Asia, whether it is in terms of promoting the development prospects of athletics in Asia, or the enthusiasm of Chinese audiences for the future of the Diamond League, or even the attraction of the world's top talents!"
Guo Zizhao's straightforward support has also caused a lot of sensation in the international athletics world, especially Osaka, Japan, which is even more anxious. Judging from the current situation, Asia can only get 2~3 stations at most, and the oil sellers in Doha will definitely be able to get 1 station, if China gets the remaining 2 stations, what will Osaka do?
The Osaka Grand Prix was once the oldest and highest-level international event in Asia. If you can't even grab a Diamond League site this time, it will be a shame!
Just when the Japanese were in a hurry and didn't have time to make a move, a series of things happened that made them even more depressed......
……
Bolt said publicly in an interview, "Beijing is a very magical place, in last year's Olympics, I ran 9.65 seconds in Beijing. I hope to have an even better performance in the Diamond League in Beijing next year! ”
Guy also spoke, "At last year's Beijing Olympics, I didn't play well because of an injury. Next year I hope to fight Usain Bolt and Powell again in the capital! ”
Powell also showed no weakness in the face of Guy's challenge, "Last year in the capital, Guy was not my opponent. This year in Berlin, I'm only 0.02 seconds slower than my opponent! Next year in the capital, we will compete again! ”
And La Sean. Merritt also came over to join in the fun, "I have the best memories of the Beijing Olympics, and I hope to have another peak showdown with Varina here next year." Hi...... Jeremy, at this year's World Championships in Berlin, you didn't run very well, did you dare to come? ”
In addition to these athletes supporting the capital, the magic capital station also pays a lot of attention. Robles, who was injured at the World Championships in Berlin this year, was the first to jump out, "If it weren't for my injury, I would have won the World Championships in Berlin this year." Oliver, I'll be waiting for you at the Mordor Station next year! ”
Soon, Doucoure, who also failed to participate in the World Championships in Berlin last year due to injury, also began to follow suit, "Oliver, will you dare to fight me in the Diamond League next year?" ”
And this year's new World Championship champion Oliver has not yet spoken, Shi Dongpeng has a rare voice this time, "In the competition of the magic capital station, Liu Feifei and I Shi Dongpeng are in the battle, if you want to win the championship, do you have to ask our opinions first!" ”
In addition to these top international masters, many other top masters who have participated in Guo Zizhao's training camp have also declared in front of the media that they hope to have the opportunity to participate in the Diamond League in Beijing or Modu next year. Even the retired Morris. Green and Alain. Johnson and the others also picked out naughtily, claiming that they hope to have the opportunity to serve as guest commentators at Beijing Station and Magic Capital Station next year.
As soon as this battle came out, not only the entire international athletics world, but also the leaders of the General Administration were taken aback!
I'll go...... As soon as Guo Zizhao's words came out, it was simply a response! That's an exaggeration, isn't it? This is simply the cry of the broad masses of the people......
Next, what made everyone even more stunned was that Fredericks, as the president of the IAAF Athletes' Commission, also publicly stated that the IAAF will fully consider the demands of the athletes when choosing the host city of the Diamond League, and will create a more comfortable environment for the athletes to compete.
At the same time, Fredericks also made it clear that in the past decade, the men's sprinting strength in Asia has improved greatly. In particular, the Chinese team has achieved world-renowned results in the men's sprint individual events and relay events. With the results and contributions of the Chinese team, they are fully qualified to have two cities as the sites of the Diamond League.
Soon after Fredericks' speech was announced, top international sports sponsors such as Adidas, Nike, Mercedes-Benz, PepsiCo, and VISA also expressed their support for the two cities of Beijing and Modu to become the host cities of next year's Diamond League......
Hiss...... This time, everyone is a little uneasy......
