Olympics start

At the end of July, the time for the Olympic Games to meet the standards had ended, and the registration for the Olympic Games was coming to an end. Zhang Guan was able to obtain the qualifications for the seven individual track and field events and the men's tennis singles.

As long as the individual track and field players can meet the Olympic standards, they can directly register through the Olympic Games Organizing Committee. If the standard is not met, the IOC will consult with the IAAF to assess the specific situation.

Zhang Guan achieved the Olympic A standard on the men's 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, long jump, and triple jump, while he was the Olympic B standard on the men's 1500m. Among them, men's 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m and 1500m, only Zhang Guan participated in the national team, because only Zhang Guan reached the Olympic A standard in the first five events, and others only reached the B standard, while for the 1500m project, Zhang Guan only reached the Olympic B mark.

In the tennis singles event, the Olympic Games have a quota. There are 64 players in the men's and women's singles events, of which 48 places are allocated by the ATP world ranking. The top 48 in the world ranking announced on June 9th, and those players can enter the Olympic Games directly, but each country has up to four players participating in the competition, and the absences are extended in order according to the world ranking.

Of the other 16 places, two places are invited seats, often for some well-known contestants; the remaining 14 places belong to the International Federation of Networks places, which can also be regarded as a backdoor place, which is equivalent to a full consistent wild card.

ATP points are calculated based on the points earned in the past year. Zhang Guan won four Grand Slam titles in 2007, with a total of 8,000 points, a Chinese Open champion with 500 points, and a year-end Masters which earned him 1000 points, the cumulative is 9500 points. As of June 9, Zhang Guan missed this year's Australian Open and French Open, so he will be deducted 4000 points, but Zhang Guan still has 5500 points, which is second only to Federer and Nadal. Above Djokovic, he is ranked third in the world. Therefore, as long as Zhang Guan signed up, he automatically obtained the Olympic tennis qualification.

As for the 4x100m track and field and basketball events, registration is under the name of the collective event of the participating countries.

...

Zhang Guan didn't notice that Sharapova's voice was low on the other side of the phone. He was still excited and said, "Maria, do you know that our national team has determined that I will be the national team's flag bearer during the Olympic opening ceremony? I read the news a few days ago and you said you might become a flag bearer for the opening ceremony of the Russian team. Is that true?"

"I have decided to withdraw from the Olympics," Sharapova said suddenly.

"Withdraw from the Olympics? What happened? Because of the injury?" Zhang Guan asked several questions in a row.

"I did an MRI exam, and my shoulder injury has been severe recently. I may not be able to participate in the rest of the year." Sharapova said in frustration.

"It's so serious." Zhang Guan was silent for two seconds, and then said, "I'm sorry, Maria, I think I should be by your side at this time, but I have to participate in the Olympics..."

"I know that the direct Olympic Games is of great significance to you. You can book a hotel for me, I will go to China to find you." Sharapova said with a smile, "I will cheer for you, my dear champion."

...

At the beginning of August, the participants of the Olympic Games have been determined. Zhang Guan has once again become the focus of attention in the sports world.

"Zhang Guan wants to participate in eight athletics events? Is he crazy? No one has participated in so many events at the same time."

"Don't forget Phelps from the United States, Phelps seems to have participated in eight swimming competitions."

"But Phelps' participation includes 4x100m freestyle relay, 4x100m medley relay, and 4x200m freestyle relay, all three are collective events and the other five It's an individual project; Zhang Guan's words are that there are only one individual project and seven collective projects."

"Even if the two people participated in the same number of events, Phelps will win more gold medals than Zhang Guan in this Olympic Games. Phelps participated in eight events and may get eight gold medals. Zhang Guan can get three or four at most! Even Zhang Guan's tone is excellent, and seven individual events can win the championship, but in the 4-by-100-meter sprint event, the United States, Britain, and Jamaica are far more powerful than China. For Zhang Guan, it is impossible to win a championship, so Zhang Guan can at most win seven gold medals."

"But Zhang Guan also crossed the big event, he also participated in tennis and basketball."

"Okay, even if you in tennis, it's just eight gold medals, and he has to participate in so many games at the same time. How can the schedule and personal energy come together!"

"Yeah, track and field, tennis, basketball, a total of three major events and ten minor events, Zhang Guan's physical strength can not be exhausted! Maybe Zhang Guan can't even get a gold medal!"

"There are absolutely no athletes in the world who can participate in so many Olympic events at the same time, nor can they win all of them. So for Zhang Guan this is an impossible task!"

...

For domestic sports audiences, of course, they hope Zhang Guan can win more championships, but foreign audiences do not think so. Of course, western countries do not want China to rise. They can't wait to see the China team make a joke of themself. But domestic fans are glad to see the Chinese team get more gold medals.

For Zhang Guan, he has a physical potion, so the biggest problem is not the physical problem, but the schedule.

In the schedule of the Olympics, the same event will not affect each other in the game time, but different major events may overlap in time. Zhang Guan will participate in multiple events at the same time and will face the game. As for the problem of overlapping time, Zhang Guan will not be able to avail himself, and it is impossible to appear at the scene of two matches at the same time.

However, the organizers of the Olympic Games also thought of this issue. They tried to give Zhang Guan some care in the arrangement of the game time, and the General Administration of Sports also applied for some related logistics support for Zhang Guan.

Yiming Consulting's meeting room.

"Athletics competitions are held at the National Athletics Center, and tennis competitions are held at the National Tennis Center. Both of these places are in the Olympic Park, except that one is close to the fourth ring road and the other is close to the fifth ring road. The Olympic green line can also go to and from the subway. But the venue of the basketball game is Wukesong Gymnasium, which is a bit far from the Olympic Park. Even if there is no traffic jam, you have to walk for more than 30 minutes." Zhuge Wenbo continued, "But you don't have to worry, we borrowed a helicopter."

"Helicopter? Such a big deal?" Zhang Guan was a little surprised, but then he remembered something and said, "Even if there is a helicopter, it will not be allowed to fly during the Olympics. The flight over the capital isn't banned?"

"It is a no-fly zone, but others have a certificate." Zhuge Wenbo continued, "It is a CCTV relay helicopter. It can fly over the capital during the Olympics. They are willing to lend it to us, of course, they are also to get the first exclusive interview with you. So when you need to use a helicopter, you will cooperate with them in the interview."

"Okay, I know." Zhang Guan nodded.

In large cities like the capital, not to mention helicopters, even the Boeing 747 can be found, but helicopters that can fly over the capital during the Olympics are difficult to find. CCTV is responsible for the broadcast of the entire Olympics. Of course, it will be equipped with the most advanced equipment, including broadcast helicopters. As Zhang Guan, the busiest athlete during the Olympics, how valuable time is, even if CCTV wants to interview him easily. Therefore, between Zhang Guan and Central Power, it can be regarded as each need.

...

At 20 o'clock on the evening of August 8, the opening ceremony of the 29th Olympic Games, which attracted worldwide attention, was solemnly held at the National Stadium. The National Stadium under the night lights was brilliant and colorful. The stadium, which can accommodate more than 90,000 people, was full of people and excited.

2008 actors sang their songs and tens of thousands of fireworks bloomed in the sky above the card. The entire stadium was like a blooming flower. The Olympic rings appeared. The national flag entered the stadium. After raising the national flag and singing the national anthem, a cultural performance began. Whether cultural performances can be read or not, it is very lively anyway. Until 9:10, the entrance ceremony for athletes finally began.

The first entry was the Greek delegation, the birthplace of the Olympics, and then delegations from other countries and regions entered the site in order of simplified Chinese character strokes. It lasted for two hours, and the host national team finally entered the stadium after the 203 countries and regions had arrived.

Zhang Guan was wearing a yellow shirt, a red suit on the outside, and white pants and white leather shoes on his lower body. He raised the national flag and walked into the stadium. The scene immediately remembered the roaring applause and shouts!

"This is the Olympics, our own Olympics!" Zhang Guan's eyes couldn't help but get a little wet, he immediately closed his eyes, letting the originally excited inner efforts calm down.

The countless flashing lights around them seem to be starry, and the lights in the sports field are becoming brighter at this moment. The national flag is flying in the air, and the ray of red has become the most beautiful color in the world at this moment.

"This is the Olympic Games hosted by our own country, this is our own Olympic Games." Zhang Guan held the flagpole tightly and listened carefully to the cheers surrounding the audience. He could feel the enthusiasm of everyone and the expectations of the audience.

"After four years, I returned to the Olympics." Zhang Guan took a deep breath and sighed softly, "I'm here for the Olympics!"

I will finish updating the daily release later into the day, so don't forget to check!
