The Prince's Invitation

In the afternoon, Zhang Guan returned to the Olympic Village and just returned to his room. He heard the knock on the door and it was Director Ma.

"Zhang Guan, you may be busy for a long time." Director Ma said straightforwardly: "Director Hou personally approved you as the standard-bearer for the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games. It seems that you will not be able to leave Athens until the end of the Olympic Games."

Zhang Guan was slightly surprised, but then calmed down immediately. According to his achievements in the Olympic Games, it is understandable to be the flag bearer of the national team's closing ceremony. It's just that it will take some time to participate in the rehearsal of the closing ceremony.

I saw Director Ma went on to say: "Besides, you have to go out with me. Counsellor Zhu from the embassy came here. He came to you specially. The athletes' dormitory is not easy to come in, so he waiting for you in the front lounge.

Zhang Guan came to the lounge with Director Ma and saw Counsellor Zhu. After the two politely exchanged a few words with each other, Counsellor Zhu began to enter the topic. I saw that Zhu Shenzhen pulled out a golden invitation from his briefcase. After opening, it was written in English and Arabic together. Zhang Guan, who is not Arabic, naturally does not know, and that English is also used in the handwriting which Zhang Guan has a very difficult time recognizing.

"Zhang Guan, this is an invitation to invite you to an Olympic party. I came here this time, in addition to handing over this invitation to you, I also hope you can participate in this party." Counselor Zhu said.

Zhang Guan looked at the Director Ma next to him and then asked, "Does our national team not want athletes to participate in this kind of entertainment?"

"This also depends on the specific situation." Director Ma said vaguely, and at the same time motioned for Counselor Zhu to explain.

Counsellor Zhu pointed out somewhere on the invitation and said, "It is not the ordinary person who sent you the invitation. He is the eldest son of the King of Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and his name is Sheikh Rashid Bin Mohammed Ben Rashid Al Maktoum."

Counselor Zhu finished speaking such a long name in one breath, but his face was not blushing, and Zhang Guan remembered only the words "Ben" and "Muhammad".

Listening to Counselor Zhu and then said: "This name is too long, we can refer to him as Prince Sheikh Rashid. This Prince Sheikh Rashid loves sports and he has participated in the Asian Games. He has won medals. Prince Sheikh Rashid is very fond of meeting sports champions from different countries. This time he hosted this private party and invited all the champions in this Olympic Games. It looks like he wants to know you."

Zhang Guan nodded his head. The UAE is a tyrant country in the Middle East, and Dubai is a world-famous tyrant city. As the prince of the emirate of Dubai, it must be the tyrant among the tyrants. Since it is a tyrant, it is possible to do anything.

Counsellor Zhu returned the invitation to Zhang Guan and said at the same time: "In recent years, our country 's oil demand has skyrocketed, and we have been looking for more suppliers to ensure our energy security. International oil after the Iraq war last year The rationing has not been very stable, oil has become OPEC 's biggest weapon, and our country's economic development requires a large amount of oil. So at the strategic level, we hope to strengthen cooperation with the UAE and increase oil imports from the UAE."

"But we have been in talks with the UAE for a long time but we have not been able to achieve a breakthrough. The Abu Dhabi side has been waiting for the price to be sold. There are many factors in it. Therefore, the country decided to launch a series of public relations activities. The main target of public relations is Abu Dhabi. Also, it is the Emirate of Dubai. The Emirate of Dubai controls almost all non-oil trade in the UAE if the will of the Emirate of Dubai is very important for Abu Dhabi."

The United Arab Emirates consists of six small emirates, the largest of which is the Abu Dhabi emirate. The emirate of Abu Dhabi is also the main producer of UAE oil. The emirate of the Abu Dhabi emirate is also the president of the UAE and the leader of the UAE.

The emirate of Dubai is the second largest emirate in the UAE. The emirate of Dubai is also the vice president and prime minister of the UAE, which is the second in the UAE. Although the Emirate of Dubai is not as rich in oil as Abu Dhabi, it controls the foreign trade of the UAE, especially the non-oil-related foreign trade is controlled by the Emirate of Dubai. Although the Middle East oil countries are rich, many industrial products and necessities need to be imported, so the Dubai Emirate in charge of foreign trade is undoubtedly equivalent to controlling most of the UAE's lifeline.

Counselor Zhu continued: "This Prince Sheikh Rashid, as the great prince of the King of Dubai Emirate, is also an important public relations object for us. But this prince has been keen on various entertainment and sports activities recently. I haven't found an opportunity to contact him. Another point is that Dubai has been developing tourism in recent years. Recently they are planning to strengthen the use of photovoltaic energy. It is expected to invest billions of dollars. Our country's photovoltaic companies are also preparing to participate in the tender, But this large-scale bidding process is quite complicated. So we very much hope that we can contact Prince Sheikh Rashid, it is best to find out the bottom line of the real needs of the people of Dubai, so for participating in the bidding, we have an advantage."

Zhang Guan nodded. After all, it was the seller's market. They just couldn't find an excuse to disappear. Zhang Guan then asked: "So you want to contact me with Prince Sheikh Rashid through me? Then what do I need to do?"

"You only need to go to the party, we will send someone as your translator to attend this party with you, and he will naturally find ways to contact the prince afterward. You can enjoy your party with peace of mind." Counselor Zhu said with a smile.

"You mean as long as I am your ticket?" Zhang Guan asked.

"You can say that too! You only need to bring our people to the venue." Counselor Zhu paused, and then said: "This Prince Sheikh Rashid has a very weird personality. We use formal means to communicate with him, but he has met many times, but he refused for various reasons, so we can only meet with him by using this choice."

"Okay. No problem, I follow the organization's arrangement." Zhang Guan agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you. Then you have to go out with me later, we need to make a dress for you, don't worry about the cost, we will be responsible."

...

There are two highlights of today's Olympic Games. One is the diving event, which is another big event for the national team to win gold; another highlight is the debut of the men's 110-meter hurdle Liu Feiren.

Liu Feiren was placed in the third group. He easily achieved the first round of the group and advanced to the second round; while the other athlete of the track and field team, Da Shi, was out of luck and failed to enter the second round.

In other track and field competitions, the pole vault queen Isinbayeva successfully won the championship, and once again broke the world record.

It is worth mentioning that in the men's 200-meter sprint race, Yang Yao broke into the second round historically, while Jamaican 18-year-old youngster Usain Bolt was eliminated in the first round due to injury, ending his first Olympic journey.

...

The next morning, Zhang Guan will be interviewed by CCCC. This kind of interview was drafted in advance, and what to say and how to say it has been arranged. Zhang Guan only needs to read it out according to the manuscript.

After the interview, it was already close to noon. Zhang Guan was about to leave for lunch, but Director Ma came in happily.

Director Ma threw several newspapers in front of Zhang Guan and said, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Guan picked up a newspaper, which is an English newspaper, but one of the headlines has been marked by Director Ma with a pen, and Zhang Guan's English level can still barely understand.

"Olympic Champions Get Ten Million Gambling Bonuses"

Zhang Guan put down the newspaper and said, "Director Ma, didn't you know that before? I bought some sports lottery and bought myself to win the 100-meter sprint championship because of this, I was almost punished."

"I am not asking about this! I know you were buying lotteries. What I am asking is what is going on with 10 million? Why is there 10 million? Several people called to ask early in the morning, even Director Hou has personally asked." Director Ma took a long breath and said: "This is 10 million euros, and it will cost hundreds of millions to be exchanged at home according to the current exchange rate! "

"When I bought the lottery, I bought a little more, so the bonus I got was higher." Zhang Guan then said: "In fact, there are not so many, after all, the bonus still has to pay taxes."

"One hundred million, I haven't seen so much money in my life! If I knew you could win the Olympics, I would buy something with you, so I don't have to worry about retirement." Director Ma said.

"Director Ma, you are still very young, it's too early to retire!" Zhang Guan said with a smile.

"You! I can see that you are a grand monkey. Why do you have to make trouble for me!" Director Ma continued helplessly: "You know, just two hours ago, the US team submitted to the Olympic Committee reported that you made a profit of more than 10 million euros through the game, suspected you of manipulating the game, saying that you violated the spirit of sports and sports ethics, and asked the Olympic Organizing Committee to cancel your gold medal."

"What did the Olympic Organizing Committee say? Do they want to investigate? Do I need to explain?" Zhang Guan asked.

Director Ma shook his head and then said: "The Olympic Organizing Committee is not a fool. If it is said that an athlete deliberately lost the game and then used gambling to make a profit, it is possible, but have you heard of that athlete who deliberately won the game? It's a matter of course for athletes to win the game, and you are breaking the record to win the championship. Can the world record be broken on purpose? If according to the logic of Americans, winning the championship is deliberately manipulating the game, then is every Olympic champion was deliberately manipulating the game. So the fairness committee did not accept it. "

"Americans can't afford to lose. Winning a game is said to be unsportsmanlike and having no sportsmanship. According to this logic, it should be a sportsmanship morality award for the national football team. Anyway, they also lose games, but they reflect sportsmanship." Zhang Guan said with a smile.

Director Ma did not answer but said: "The United States team is a bit anxious now. The track and field events are already halfway finished. Their gold medallist is still behind, so they are preparing to play tricks!"
