Chapter 521: Protest Wave (Fourth Watch)

In front of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games, more and more people gathered, first those who came out of the Olympic Velodrome, then those who watched TV at home, and those who had just finished work. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As night fell, more and more people gathered here, many of whom gave up watching the live broadcast of the Olympic Games in the evening.

Media reporters have already heard the news, not only have they brought all kinds of long guns and short guns, but even the broadcast truck has driven over.

Not only local British journalists, but also journalists from all over the world show up here to dig up the big news, and they go deep into the crowd and start interviewing.

"We lost seven gold medals before, and just now, we lost our eight, and it's all Sebastian who is responsible!" A middle-aged man said to the camera.

"Wiggins lost, Kenny lost, Brownlee lost, and now even Sir Hoy has lost, which should have been the gold medal for Great Britain, which is a completely unnecessary loss for the British team! It's all because of Sebastian, his personal grudge with Zhang Guan, but it harms our British interests! He is no longer eligible to remain in the position of president of the London Organising Committee! A young man who looked no more than twenty years old spoke.

"Sebastian is the sinner of Britain, London has waited 64 years for another Olympics, but Sebastian loves to mess up this Olympics, he must step down immediately!" It was a woman who spoke.

"Look at what we've achieved in this Olympics, it's not as good as the last one, it's our home stadium! In our own Olympic Games, the performance of the host athletes is getting worse and worse, and the main culprit for all this is Sebastian! I really don't understand, why does he still have the face to stay in the position of president of the London Olympic Organizing Committee, he should have resigned voluntarily a long time ago! ”

Many British people have long been dissatisfied with Sebastian, but they have always held it in their hearts and have not vented it, and Hoy's loss of the game obviously became a fuse and ignited the emotions of the whole Britain.

Until late at night, the protesters had not dispersed. Londoners' nightlife is relatively rich, especially in summer, and it is normal for many young people to play until two or three o'clock in the morning, so these protesters have also insisted on it until after two o'clock in the morning, and then gradually dispersed.

But early the next morning, they showed up at the London Organising Committee's office.

……

The mass protest of the citizens of London appeared in the media around the world the next day.

The most excited was the French media, which reuters brought the protest to the front page headlines, trying to tell the world how failed the London Olympics were. The French felt that in cycling and rowing, the British had hacked two gold medals by improper means, and now that they had such a good opportunity for revenge, how could they not take advantage of it.

In addition to the French media, the media in Germany, Spain, Italy and other countries did not give positive reports. Europe's major sporting powers, which have competed with each other in the Olympic Games, are happy to see the British deflated.

The media in the United States should be relatively friendly, and the United Kingdom and the United States have always worn the same pair of pants anyway.

And the pressure on Sebastian is mounting. Now Sebastian is like a frightened bird at all times.

On August 9th, the day after the end of the bike race, Chris Hoy officially announced his retirement!

In fact, Hoy is 36 years old this year, and he should also reach the age of retirement, but at this time, Hoy's retirement has given many media different interpretations.

"Sir Hoy must have lost the game, and he chose to retire in frustration!"

"It's a shame that there will never be a way to see Sir Hoy on the field again."

"It's too sudden! Unexpectedly, yesterday afternoon's game turned out to be Sir Hoy's last swan song on the field, and it turned out to be Sir Hoy's curtain call! ”

"I suppose Sir Hoy must have been full of regret! Originally, he could have won a gold medal yesterday afternoon, but now, he can only leave the arena with a silver medal, which will definitely be regretted for life! ”

"It's Sebastian who ruined the flag of our British athletes!"

Hoy has accumulated countless iron fans in Britain for more than ten years, and now, because of Hoy's sudden retirement, those iron fans have also joined the protest corps.

……

On the evening of August 10, Zhang Guan ushered in the semifinals of the boxing event.

Zhang's opponent was the gold medallist of the previous edition, Italy's Roberto Camarele.

Camarele's skills are very good, and he is definitely one of the best players in the world at the amateur level, and he has won gold and silver medals in important competitions such as the World Championships and the European Championships.

It's just that Camarele has never entered the professional boxing world. And he's 32 years old this year, and it's unlikely that he'll turn to professional boxing anymore for a heavyweight boxer.

People who have never fought professional boxing can hardly appreciate the cruelty of professional boxing. Perhaps the top fighters of amateur boxing may not seem much worse than professional boxers in terms of technique, but when it comes to the lethality of their fists, they are far from the same.

Amateur boxing has protective gear, so it is difficult to knock out opponents, and amateur boxers are also looking for effective hits, as each effective hit gets one point.

Professional boxing is all about lethality, and those who can knock out their opponents in one round will never drag them to the second round.

This difference in the lethality of punches was also brought into the game by the two fighters.

In the first round of the contest, although the score of the two sides was 3-3, the two now feel completely different. Camarele's three effective hits did not cause much damage to Zhang Guan, while Zhang Guan's three effective hits made Camarella's entire heart tremble. Kamarele was even worried about whether he would spurt out a mouthful of old blood.

At this time, Camarele already felt that this fight could not be fought anymore, and if he took two more punches, he would definitely be carried away on a stretcher.

The boxer is not a character that we control when we play the game, and if you play the game, you can continue to jump alive and continue to fight if you lose half of your blood after hitting a move. And in reality, after being punched by a professional boxer, let alone jumping around, it's good not to fight 120, let alone continue to fight.

What's more, Zhang Guan's fist is still a heavy punch of Tyson's level, and Camarele, an amateur fighter, took three punches, and his whole body felt like it was about to fall apart, and now Camarele only has 50% of his usual combat power left at most.

"I throw in the towel!" The last Olympic champion announced his surrender just at the start of the second round.

Zhang Guan also successfully advanced to the final of boxing.

……

At the Prime Minister's residence in Downing Street, several dignitaries are gathering to discuss the matter.

"Buckingham Palace has called this morning to follow this matter, and His Majesty hopes for a satisfactory outcome." The prime minister looked at the crowd at the long table, and then said: "This Olympic Games, we are not going well, the scandal a few days ago, as you know, the French have even sued us to the international court, which has greatly affected the relationship between us and France, and is even about to turn into a diplomatic incident!" And now, even the people are venting their frustrations. ”

An old man snorted coldly: "It's not going well, now other countries are saying that the London Olympics is the most failed Olympics in history!" The Olympics were supposed to be to fight the whole world about the strength of our British Empire, but now? The face of our British Empire is about to be lost! ”

"Someone needs to step up and take responsibility for it!" A short-haired woman next to her spoke: "The president of the London Olympic Committee should take the blame and resign!" ”

"After all, Sebastian is the biggest contributor to London's bid for the Olympic Games, and now that the London Olympics are not over, will it be too cruel to let him resign?" A man with glasses asked.

"Sebastian has a lot to do with London's successful bid for the Olympic Games, but we've made him president of the London Olympic Committee." The short-haired woman continued: "I don't deny that Sebastian has done a lot of work over the years to prepare for the London Olympics, but everything he does should be to make the London Olympics better, not the way it is now, I hear new scandals almost every day!" ”

"And we have to respect the will of the people, look at the people in the streets, they have only been there for two days, and they have already spread all over the world, and some people think that we in Britain have failed to host the Olympics! If they stay, the whole world will continue to watch the jokes of the British Empire! Guys, for the sake of the British Empire, Sebastian should resign as soon as possible! The short-haired woman spoke categorically, quite like the "Iron Lady" Margaret Thatcher.

The woman's words attracted the approval of many people.

"Can't we just wait any longer? There are still two days left in the London Olympics! The bespectacled man wanted to intercede for Sebastian again.

"Wait two more days? Do you wish that when we hold the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, the scene will be full of protest slogans? The short-haired woman asked rhetorically.

The bespectacled man fell silent.

If there were protests at the closing ceremony, it would be a real shame!

So, Sebastian must resign as soon as possible!
