Chapter 513: Bringing Down Sebastian

The scandals surrounding the London Olympics have caused a lot of headaches for IOC President Rogge, who has even begun to worry about the next Olympics in Brazil. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The phone rang, and Rogge immediately picked up the receiver.

"Mr. President, I have something to report to you. Following your instructions, we have warned the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games in the form of a drug test for British athletes. ”

"I don't think I've really found out anything, do I?" Rogge asked.

"Yes, the previous gold medalist in the women's team pursuit in track cycling, Laura Trotter, has a positive urine test."

"Laura Trotter, I remember this competitor, she's called the number one beauty in track cycling, right?" Rogge asked.

"You're right, that's what the British call her. She had a positive urine test in 2009. ”

"That is, there is a criminal record!" Rogge said very unhappily. He thought for a moment and said, "Report this matter to the London Olympic Organizing Committee and let them deal with it!" ”

"Leave it to the London Organising Committee? With all due respect, Mr. President, Laura Trott was originally a British athlete and won a gold medal for Great Britain, and if she doped, Britain would have been stripped of that gold medal, so I think the British Organising Committee will do everything they can to defend her. ”

"I knew that to give it to the London Organising Committee would be to be both an athlete and a referee, and Laura Trott would be fine. But don't forget, after all, it's the time for the London Olympics, and there are some things that we still have to take into account in the face of the British. Rogge sighed helplessly, and he continued: "Leave this matter to the British Olympic Organizing Committee, Sebastian has been in charge of the IAAF for many years, and he will definitely be able to give a reasonable explanation." ”

……

Sebastian naturally looked angry when he learned that Zhang Guan had defeated Kenny, but this time he didn't go to see Zhang Guan's post-match interview, mainly because the TV remote control was broken by Sebastian himself, and it hasn't been repaired yet. If Sebastian watches the TV interview, he will definitely hear Zhang Guan's "thanks" to him again.

However, even more "sad" things happened for Sebastian, when the IOC's Anti-Doping Committee passed on a report that Laura Trotter, the champion of the women's team pursuit in track cycling, had been tested for doping.

Laura Trotter is a doping ex-convict, and she also won a gold medal for Great Britain this time, if she is confirmed for doping, the British gold medal will definitely be lost, so Sebastian will keep this gold medal for Great Britain no matter what.

"The IOC handed over this matter to our London Olympic Organizing Committee, and it is also taking care of the host's face, and we owe Rogge a favor again!" Sebastian let out a long sigh, he called his assistant, and instructed: "Go find Sutton, the head coach of the track cycling team, and ask him to prepare a drug application for Laura Trott, the time was written three months ago, and when I am ready to get here, I will stamp and apply for a doping exemption for Laura Trott." ”

The assistant hesitated, he knew that this was a forged document, not only a moral issue, but also a possibility of being characterized as a crime, but since it was Sebastian's order, he still carried it out.

In many cases, drugs used to treat diseases also contain stimulants. For example, many drugs used to treat high blood pressure contain diuretics, and diuretics are a type of stimulant that athletes are not allowed to use.

Athletes are also human beings, so they naturally get sick, and they also have to take medicine when they get sick, so they often come across drugs that contain stimulant ingredients. However, illness cannot be left untreated, and at this time, athletes can apply to the governing body for medication, according to the composition of the drug, certain doping ingredients are exempted, which is the so-called "doping exemption".

Of course, if an athlete uses an exempted doping without permission, the governing body or anti-doping organization has no way to verify it, so many netizens jokingly call it a "licensed drug addict".

Athletics has always been the hardest hit by doping, and Sebastian, as president of the IAAF, couldn't be more skilled in the trick of doping immunity. So when he learned that Laura Trott had been tested for doping, he immediately decided to forge a drug application and give Laura Trott a doping waiver.

……

In the evening, Zhang Guan participated in another quarter-final of boxing.

When I returned to my accommodation, I saw that the Belgian cyclist, Gilbert, was already waiting there.

"Zhang! You're finally back! Gilbert immediately greeted him and said, "I have come to say goodbye to you, and I will be back to Belgium tomorrow." ”

"It's a pity that I still have a game tomorrow, so I can't see you off, I wish you a smooth journey!" Zhang Guan said.

"Thank you. Thank you. Gilbert continued: "I'm referring to the last march, thank you for being a part." ”

"Don't say that, I'm also a cyclist, and besides, our parade didn't have any effect." Zhang Guan spread his hands and said.

"The London Organising Committee is so shameless! I just heard that the anti-doping organization found out that Laura Trott was doping, and then the London Organising Committee immediately got her a doping exemption! Gilbert said angrily.

"Laura Trotter?" Zhang Guan repeated the name and felt a little impressed.

"You may not know her, she's a British track cyclist, known as the number one beauty in track cycling! By the way, the Kenny you defeated today seems to be her boyfriend. Gilbert explained.

"It's her!" After Gilbert's reminder, Zhang Guan had already remembered who Laura Trott was at this time.

Laura Trott has been called the "first goddess" of track cycling, and she and Kenny have also been called a champion couple. Without Zhang Guan, the couple will have won a total of 10 Olympic gold medals after the future Olympics.

Because Laura Trotter's appearance is very good, at least Europeans like this classical style beauty very much, so in the United Kingdom, Laura Trott is also quite popular, even the second prince of the United Kingdom His Royal Highness once invited her to watch the game together.

As for Laura Trotter's doping, it is not groundless, but based on facts. Back in 2009, she tested positive for doping, but she wasn't well-known at the time. And the most well-known doping incident about her is the revelation of the Russian hacker group "Fantasy Bear" after the Rio Olympics.

At the Rio Olympics, the IAAF banned the Russian track and field team from the competition, citing the mass doping of the Russian track and field team, and the IOC almost banned the entire Russian team from the Rio Olympics.

After the Olympics, a Russian hacking group called "Fantasy Bear" hacked into the computers of the International Olympic Committee and found a large number of European and American athletes with "doping exemptions", which were apparently legal doping athletes, most of whom were athletes from the United States, Britain and Australia.

Laura Trott is one of them, and her name appears in the third batch of "Fantasy Bears" list, and she is also the most famous of them.

"Doping Waiver Incident! How did I forget this. Maybe this is a way to remove Sebastian from power! But you need to find a helper. At this time, Zhang Guan suddenly had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

……

The last IAAF president was Senegalese Diack, who has been living in France since stepping down as IAAF president.

Born in 1933, Diack is 79 years old, and at this age he has a lot less sleep, so he has already gotten up early in the morning, and after a simple freshening, he is ready to have breakfast.

At this moment, the ringtone of the mobile phone rang, and an unfamiliar number appeared on the phone.

Diack still uses a feature phone, which is difficult for someone his age to accept a smartphone.

"Don't know the number? Who could it be? Advertising? No, it seems to be a foreign number. Diack hesitated, but picked up his phone.

"Hello Chairman Diack, I'm Zhang Guan, you personally presented me with the Golden League award back then, do you remember me?" Zhang Guan's voice came from the phone.

"Zhang Guan!" Diack was a little surprised, and he said, "Of course I remember you!" Young man, I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you suddenly remember me, an old man? Oh, I'm not the president of the IAAF anymore, I'm just a retired old man at home. ”

Zhang Guan and Diack exchanged a few more polite words, and then began to get to the point.

"Chairman Diack, I have very bad news for you." Zhang Guan said.

Diack was shocked, and he immediately asked, "What's the news?" ”

"The IAAF wants to investigate you. It's about black gold and bribery. Zhang Guan said.

"Oh?" Diack had a questioning tone, but his heart was already tense.

Although Diack has stepped down, he has been in charge of the IAAF for ten years, coupled with the years when he was vice president before, he will naturally cultivate a large number of cronies in the IAAF, so he has already received the news that the IAAF is going to investigate his bribery, but Sebastian is busy with the London Olympics and has not yet spared time, and when the London Olympics are over, Sebastian will definitely put the investigation on the agenda.

"How did Zhang Guan know about this, and how much else did he know?" Diack thought anxiously. He wanted Zhang Guan to reveal more of it, but he had to pretend that he didn't know.

Just listening to the phone, Zhang Guan continued: "As far as I know, there are two main directions of the IAAF investigation, one is the postponement of doping inspections of Russian athletes, the other is the declaration of the Rio Olympics, in addition, there are some scattered things such as the broadcast rights of track and field events. ”

"What? Zhang Guan actually knew so much! Diack's heart was already in turmoil.

At that time, a large number of track and field athletes in Russia were tested for doping problems, and Diack helped Russia in the retest, he deliberately postponed the retest, and received more than one million euros from Russia.

Diack is also a member of the Olympic inspection committee, so when Rio bid for the Olympics, Brazil once paid Diack's son Diack Jr. $1.5 million as a public relations fee in exchange for Diack's support for Rio. As for the upcoming bid for the 2020 Olympic Games, Tokyo has also approached Diack and is ready to pay Diack to support Tokyo.

As for the broadcast rights of track and field events, it is nothing more than Diack received money from several TV stations, and then sold the broadcast rights of track and field events at a low price.

Of course, Diack has received bribes far more than these, after being the president of the IAAF for so many years, Diack has made a lot of money, if this is really found out, not only Diack himself will be imprisoned, but his son Diack Jr. will also have to be imprisoned for a few years.

"These are all non-existent things, slander!" Diack said quite righteously, but he didn't have much confidence in his heart.

At the same time, Diack's tone also became quite unkind, and he thought that Zhang Guan wanted to blackmail himself with this matter.

Zhang Guan smiled slightly, and he said, "I believe that you are innocent, but will Sebastian believe it?" After the London Olympics, he will still start the investigation process. ”

"Then let him investigate, I haven't done it, what are you afraid of!" Diack said quite stiffly.

"That's right!" Zhang Guan paused, and then said, "I thought you wanted to remove Sebastian from power!" ”

"Once the IAAF president is elected, he will definitely be re-elected, and the previous IAAF presidents have also served until retirement. Sebasti is not yet sixty years old, and he is still early in retirement! Diack's voice stopped suddenly, and he suddenly thought of another possibility.

"Do you mean to force Sebastian to resign voluntarily, or to initiate impeachment proceedings? Do you have his handle in your hands? Diack asked. After all, he has been the president of the IAAF for decades, and after thinking about it carefully, he understands Zhang Guan's intentions.

"Yes." Zhang Guan admitted very dryly, and he continued: "It's about doping immunity. ”

"Doping exemptions? As far as I know, Sebastian has signed a lot in the past two years, but is that a problem? The athletes who apply for drugs must have come according to the procedure, and there are also doctors' diagnoses on it, and if someone cheats, it should also be the responsibility of the doctors and athletes, and Sebastian can't be found. Diack spoke.

"But as far as I know, this doping exemption is not available to everyone. More than 200 people apply in Russia every year, and less than 10 of them can be approved. Zhang Guan said.

"It's not a problem, he's the president of the IAAF, and he has the right to reject any athlete's application." Diack spoke.

"But the UK also had nearly 200 track and field athlete applications, and almost all of them passed!" Zhang Guan said.

"Oh? It's true? Is your message accurate? Diack asked.

"You should be more adept at collecting specific data than I am. I think if this news is released, it will be enough to use it as a reason to impeach Sebastian, right? Zhang Guan said.

Zhang Guan's news comes from the revelations of the Russian hacker "Fantasy Bear" in the future, and in the data given by "Fantasy Bear", almost all of the athletes who can pass the doping exemption are American, British and Australian athletes, and almost no Russian athletes have passed the application.

After this news appeared, of course, there was an uproar in the world, the whole world knows that the IAAF and the IOC are double standards in the face of doping, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, you can use doping by writing an application, and the Russians will not pass any application, and when it comes to the competition, everyone is doping, the United States, Britain and Australia have all kinds of gold medals, but Russia has been directly banned.

If you compare the doping exemption obtained by the United Kingdom with the doping exemption obtained by Russia, it seems intuitive: in terms of track and field athletes, the pass rate of British athletes is almost 100%, while the pass rate of Russian athletes is almost zero.

This is enough to make a big fuss about it. As the president of an international organization, the most important thing is to treat all member states equally, at least on the surface, to be even. For example, when the South Korean president of the United Nations encounters the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula, he is extremely cautious in dealing with it, and stands on a neutral position as much as possible, for fear that a slightly tilted position will cause big trouble.

Sebastian, as a British, would use his position as IAAF president to benefit the UK, which would be enough to be grounds for impeachment.

For example, when doping exemptions are granted, everyone comes according to the procedure, and the IAAF also approves it according to the procedure. But once there is a contrast, it feels different. The British applied for it, but the people from other countries did not get it, and people naturally thought that it was Sebastian, the British president, who gave the green light to his compatriots!

If it were a few years later, Sebastian would have been in power, and Diack would have been arrested by the French police for taking bribes, and the same thing would not have hurt Sebastian, let alone impeach him.

But the current situation is different, Diack still has several titles on his body, and he also has cronies within the IAAF, but Sebastian also has to investigate Diack's corruption, and Diack will inevitably launch an impeachment of Sebastian in order to protect himself.

Diack will not let go of this opportunity, for Diack, Sebastian is afraid that he will go to prison if he does not step down.
