Located on the plains of southeastern England, London is one of the four world-class cities.

Tokyo, New York and Paris, Tang Wenlong has already been, but when he comes to this fashion charm capital of the same level, he still feels a different style and precipitation.

At the end of July, it was the summer season in London, and the temperature stabilized at around 20 degrees Celsius, with a maximum of 30 degrees.

Tang Wenlong followed the Chinese delegation to stay in the Olympic Village in London, waited until the evening of the 27th, passed the flame for 70 days, and arrived at the "London Bowl", the main venue of the opening ceremony of the London Olympic Games, along the Thames River. Under the gaze of hundreds of millions of spectators, it ignited.

The theme of the opening ceremony was "Wonderful Island", inspired by the play "The Tempest" by William Shakespeare, an iconic British literary figure. Showcasing the history, culture and modern society of the British Isles for three hours, from Shakespeare to Rowling, from the Industrial Revolution to social networks, the British tried to tell the world that London has influenced and will continue to influence the world.

Tang Wenlong did not participate in the last Beijing Olympics at home, but at the scene, he also felt that the opening ceremony was quite good, lively and orderly, atmospheric and majestic.

When the Chinese delegation appeared, Tang Wenlong walked in the front as the standard-bearer.

The bright red and white color palette has become a Chinese tradition, and this time the delegation consisted of 396 athletes, and the total number of delegates was 621, including 29 Olympic champions, which was the sixth highest number of all delegations. Walking around the audience, the audience applauded and cheered, and the members of the delegation generously waved to the audience sitting above. It shows the demeanor of a great country.

After a week around the field. As is customary. The delegation was guided to the center of the venue.

However, at this time, Tang Wenlong and the athletes of the Chinese delegation saw a strange scene, and the Japanese delegation was actually guided directly to the outside of the field.

"What's going on?" Tang Wenlong blinked, he has a good height and vision, and he can see everyone clearly, but there is also a doubt in his mind, making the Japanese delegation think about life outside the field?

"Maybe the guide is from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei border region." Yi Jianlian also saw it clearly, and joked with Tang Wenlong on the side. Both of them did not have a good impression of Japan, and it was a bit of a sense of schadenfreude to see the Japanese delegation going to the sidelines to give a briefing, although this kind of thinking was unacceptable.

Later, more than a week later, the incident was exposed, and the Japanese Olympic Committee replied that the Japanese delegation itself had not submitted an application, which was a mistake by the Olympic Organizing Committee, which caused the Japanese delegation to leave the venue halfway. However, the Japanese delegation itself will not pay much attention to this issue, as it will not have any impact on competitive competitions.

And this is also the beginning of the frequent occurrence of various oolong events in the London Olympics. At this Olympics, there were a lot of low-level work mistakes. For example, the flags of North Korea and South Korea are indistinguishable, such as the flags of China and South Korea were hoisted incorrectly, the flame was extinguished for eight hours, the American flag was blown away, etc., compared with the perfect Beijing Olympics in 08, the judgment was high.

After the opening ceremony, it marked the official start of the London Olympic Games.

The men's basketball game was scheduled to start on the 28th, and there were four games on the first day, namely Nigeria and ******, Brazil and Australia, the United States and France, Spain and China.

There are a total of 12 teams participating in the competition, and after being divided into two groups, the top four teams in each group will finally qualify. China was placed in Group B, in addition to Spain, Australia, Brazil, the United Kingdom and Russia, and the British media wailed, this is simply a group of death!

Spain is the champion of the European Championships, the undoubted basketball hegemon, the Chinese team has a superstar Tang Wenlong, the strength is close to the world's old powerhouses, the Russian team fought its way out of the qualifying round, and performed well in all four games, and the team also has NBA star Kirilenko, six players from the Russian Central Army Army, with tacit understanding and smooth offense and defense. The only ones that look a little easier are Australia and Brazil, but they are also tougher than the United Kingdom, which came in with a green card, and the only thing that gives British fans confidence is that they have NBA player Roel Deng, who is also the number one man for the Bulls.

"Spain is very strong this year, especially on the inside, with a super squad of Gasol and Ibaka, which is a super team that can compete with the Dream Team." Head coach Deng Huade and Tang Wenlong chatted about Spain's lineup, and after analysis, both of them found it tricky.

Tang Wenlong said: "The key is that their outside line is not weak, Calderón, Fernandez, Navarro is good for Rubio's season reimbursement, and now they can't play, otherwise it will be more difficult for us." ”

Then Tang Wenlong said with a smile: "But it doesn't matter, we still have a chance to win, coach, I don't think they can find anyone who can prevent me, and I will shoot them by a few three-pointers when I go back!" ”

"Hahaha, it's okay, they doubt life." Deng Huade laughed sinisterly, and acquiesced to giving Tang Wenlong the right to play independently.

Then on the 28th, the Chinese team waited for the end of the previous groups of games, and the last game played, at this time, the fans who were waiting to watch the game in China found that the time had entered 11:45, and the game arranged by the Olympic Organizing Committee entered the early morning period in minutes.

Nigeria won against ****** and Brazil against Australia.

The U.S. team crushed the French team with the help of First Lady Michelle ******, and although France also has NBA players like Batum, Parker, Dior, Turyaf and Petrus, the gap between the two sides is too obvious - the starting lineup of the American team is Paul, Kobe, James, Durant and Tyson Chandler

When the U.S. team played, the Chinese team and Tang Wenlong were already sitting on the sidelines watching, and as soon as the game was over, Tang Wenlong walked off the field.

On the court, Duran, who got the highest score, was deliberately angry and swept away the decadence of the recent loss in the finals.

Tang Wenlong smiled and high-fived Durant, and then hugged Iguodala, Anthony, James, Kobe and other acquaintances, and the latter smiled evilly.

"I didn't expect to be in a group with the Chinese team, it seems that I can only abuse you once, what a pity."

Tang Wenlong's face darkened, and he said unadmittedly: "You will definitely win?" Why don't you get rid of Argentina? Do you remember when the boat capsized in 04? ”

"Hey, that's different! We chose the most rational team, with attack and defense, shooter and assault, sideline organization, and flank gate. This time, the gold medal is already in our pocket. Kobe Bryant said with a firm face, then waved at Tang Wenlong and walked into the players' tunnel. (To be continued.) )
