In the stadium, in the reporter's interview area, Duke hesitated and took out the phone to make a call. After being connected for half a day, Duke said carefully: "Editor, this is Duke."
"Damn, Duke, do you know what time it is in America now? You disturbed my dream! I was just about to sleep with Britney in my dream!" The other voice expressed annoyance, then said: "If you can't give me a reasonable reason, I want to fire you! "
"Sorry editor-in-chief, there are some special situations on my side." Duke cleared his throat, then said: "That Chinese named Zhang Guan, he broke the world record!"
The editor-in-chief on the phone froze for a few seconds, and then cursed: "Asshole, Duke, you bastard! I certainly know that the Chinese broke the world record, and I also know that he won the Olympic champion! What, are you still living in the Middle Ages! I don't need your asshole to tell this news from a month ago! I swear, I must fire you!"
"The editor-in-chief, no, not the Olympics, just now. I mean, just now, at the IAAF All-Star Game, that Chinese Zhang Guan, he once again broke the 100-meter sprint world record! The result was 9.76 seconds!" Duke hurriedly explained.
"What are you saying? Are you saying "yes", am I not wrong? God! This is only a month away! That Chinese man broke the Olympic record twice a month! How is it possible, no one in the world can do it!" The editor-in-chief seemed to have no drowsiness and talked to himself.
A minute later, the editor-in-chief finally finished nagging, and he reprimanded Duke again: "Duke, what are you doing now, go and interview! Men's 100m has a new world record! This is the headline. Right, we want to make this headline! "
"Editor, what about the doping? You promised me before, the Hungarian doping scandal will make headlines!" Duke said.
"Hungarian stimulant scandal? The stimulant scandal that went to him! There are several stimulant scandals in the United States every year! What's so strange? It's nothing more than changing the name of the owner! What I want now is a world record report, Duke, Listen clearly, it's the report of the world record! In front of the new 100-meter sprint world record, no one will care about the stimulant scandal of the damn hammer thrower! The Hungarian who took the stimulant, and the by-pass win the championship Japanese, who are they? I don't know them at all! I don't want to know who they are! What I want now is the news of the 'fastest person running in the world!" The editor-in-chief calmed down, then said, "Duke, a doping scandal, at best can be regarded as the headline of the sports version, but the new world record of the 100-meter sprint is eligible to be the front-page headline! Frontpage headline, you understand Duke, your reports may become the front-page headlines of our newspapers!"
"Frontpage headline!" Duke was excited in his heart. As a sports reporter, he envied that journalists who interviewed politics could easily get so many front pages. In political news, the Japanese prime minister shakes hands with the dog raised by the US president. It can be on the front page. However, the interviews that he worked hard on could only stay in the very back sports version.
The temptation of the front page headline knocked down Duke in an instant, and he said: "Okay, editor, I understand, I will interview China Zhang immediately!"
"Very good, Duke, throw the damn stimulant scandal aside, don't think about it, and then go to interview China Zhang. In such a short period, he broke the world record twice, which no one has ever done. You are a reporter. You have to interview what the audience wants to see so that you can realize your value. "The editor-in-chief started chattering again.
"Editor, I know, please stop talking, you should continue to sleep now, Britney is still waiting for you in the dream!"
...
When Duke quickly ran to Zhang Guan, Zhang Guan was surrounded by a large number of reporters.
In one month, he broke the world record for men 's 100-meter sprint twice. No one has ever been able to achieve it. At the level of the world record, every 0.01 seconds forward may need to wait in units of "years".
"Congratulations, Zhang Guan, you broke the world record again! You have created a miracle!" A reporter said.
"Miracle? No! At the Olympics a month ago, I said, this is not a miracle!" Zhang Guan waved his hand: "I have this strength, I am the fastest person in the world to run, so of course the world record is there for me to break! "
The reporter who asked this question blushed suddenly. He didn't expect Zhang Guan to answer this way. Every athlete broke the world record but it was like being kissed by the goddess of luck. Where could it be as natural as Zhang Guan?
At this time, Zhang Guan went on to say: "I have seen some people have been saying that it is a coincidence and good luck to break the world record, then I will break the world record again today. You also think that this is a coincidence, and there will be a third and fourth time in the future ... So, don't say any coincidences, luck, miracles, I only believe in strength! I believe that shortly, the world will get used to me constantly set new world records! "
"Oh... what is this? A testimony to break the world record? How could anyone have such a testimony? Too arrogant! But too personal! I like this personality!" Duke opened his mouth in surprise, and then Duke realized that young people in the United States would love this kind of personality star. Pursuing individuality to show themselves is the mainstream culture of young people in the United States and the world.
...
Kondo Laboratory.
This All-Star Game is different from the Olympic Games. The organizer collected specimens from all athletes. At this time, urine samples of eight athletes in the 100-meter sprint are being tested.
"Is the result out! Is there any stimulant response?" Kondo Kumi asked anxiously.
"It's coming soon." The assistant in front stared at the computer screen carefully, waiting for the result to appear.
"It must be measured, it must be measured!" Kondo Kumi began to pray. How worried he was that he could not test the stimulant at all, so it was not only a failure for him but also a blow to self-confidence.
"Come out!" Zhu pointed to the detection situation generated on the computer screen, and then shouted: "Detected, detected! Some samples reacted!"
"Measured, what is it?" Kondo Kumi asked immediately.
"In terms of molecular structure, this is a steroid," the assistant said.
Kondo Kumi immediately stepped forward, looked closely, and then said, "This is tetrahydroethylhydroxydigestrelenenyl ketone. This thing is very complicated. It should be the latest type of stimulant. No wonder the Olympics It was not detectable at the time. We couldn't develop it in Japan. I thought that only Americans could develop this new type of steroid. I didn't expect the Chinese people to progress so fast! "
Kondo Kumi immediately picked up the phone after speaking and dialed the phone number of the office of the deputy minister. In less than a minute, the phone went into the office of the second minister.
"My Excellency, this is Kondo Kumi."
"Dr. Kondo, what's the situation? Has it been detected?" The second chief asked.
"Yes, we detected the stimulant reaction. It is tetrahydroethylhydroxydigestrelenenone, the latest type of steroid. This thing is very complicated and the technical content is very high, even Americans may not be able to detect it. Come out. "Kondo Kame said proudly.
"Very good, Dr. Kondo, prepare the test report immediately. We are going to hold a press conference to inform the world about this scandal!" The second chief's voice suddenly became excited.
"The rest assured, I prepared the test report immediately." Kondo Kumi hung up the phone and then said, "Preparing me with a detailed test report."
"Good doctor. Do you want all?" The assistant asked.
"Of course. Wait, what does all this mean?" Kondo Kumi said.
"I mean all the reports. We just tested a total of eight samples. The one that detected doping was sample number 4. So I want to ask if the other seven samples will also issue test reports," the assistant said.
"Just give Zhang Guan's report." Kondo Kumi said.
"Okay." The assistant made a comparison of the athletes' list and then said, "Issuing a report of sample number five."
"Wait a minute!" Kondo Kumi shouted at his assistant: "Did you just say that the problem was sample number four?"
The assistant nodded, took a look at the list, and then said: "Zhang Guan is indeed the fifth sample, he has no problem. The fourth sample is Justin Gatlin..."
"What!" Kondo Kumi almost jumped up, he ran to the computer to start the operation, and then he almost cried out. Zhang Guan's urine sample was tested as normal, and it was Justin Gatlin that detected the use of steroids.
"Why didn't you tell me that the problem is Gatlin? I don't want Gatlin, I want Zhang Guan!" Kondo Kumi growled.
"Professor, our equipment is sorted according to the number. Only the number appears on the computer, and matching the number to the athlete requires manual operation. We have just tested the sample for the stimulant response, and have not had time to map the number to the athlete." The assistant said with a grievance.
"What should I do? What should I do?" Kondo Kumi suddenly had an urge to kill himself. I originally wanted to check Zhang Guan, but in the end, I found Japanese American dads. Once this result is to be published, it is equivalent to smoking the face of Americans.
The Japanese can offend the world, but only dare not offend the Americans.
"Do you want to reverse the test results of Zhang Guan and Gatlin?" Kondo Kumi spurted on three hearts, but then immediately rejected this idea. The urine sample is divided into two parts. If the first sample is checked, If there is a problem, the second sample should be tested by another institution, and the coaches and athletes are allowed to supervise the sample and the whole process of the test. If the results of the two tests are different, the truth will soon be revealed. Therefore, swapping the test results is of no use at all.
"I have to call your deputy minister as soon as possible, and I can't hold a press conference!" Kondo Kumi took the phone hastily...
