The Gallic chicken's jumping was in vain after all, although the Berlin Olympics were met with strong opposition, but it still didn't change the IOC's decision, and the Berlin Olympics were held as scheduled. Even Germany actually obtained the right to host the Winter Olympics at the same time, knowing that this is the last time in the history of the Olympic Games, summer and winter Olympic Games held in the same country.
In total, more than 4,000 athletes from 49 countries took part. The King of Bulgaria, the Prince of Italy, the Prince of Greece, the Prince of Sweden and other dignitaries attended the opening ceremony.
Compared with the previous Olympic Games, the opening ceremony of this Olympics can be described as brilliant and spectacular.
This session of the Olympic Games decided to restore the old system of the ancient Olympic Games, the Games, from the opening date to the closing ceremony, in the main field of burning the Olympic flame. And regulations, the fire must come from Olympia, take the torch relay from Olympia to the host country.
Before the current Olympic Games on July 20, in Olympia held a grand torch lighting ceremony, 12 girls dressed in Greek national costume in the musical accompaniment to the convex lens with the help of sunlight to ignite the kindling, the former President of the International Olympic Committee, Gu Baidan was present at the venue, and made a speech, and then officially began each person holding the torch to run a 1-kilometer torch relay.
The relay covered 3,075 kilometers from Olympia to the Berlin Stadium, with a total of 3,075 participants, and on August 2 the flame was transported by sailboat to the sailing venue of Kiel Harbor, where it was lit in the afternoon of the 3rd. The lighting of the Olympic Flame is one of the indispensable ceremonies of the opening ceremony of each Olympic Games from this year onwards.
For the first time, the Berlin Olympics were broadcast on television to the entire world, and 25 large screens were set up throughout Berlin for local people to watch the games free of charge. These moves were undoubtedly well received by the public and gave busy people a chance to relax and watch events that would normally be difficult to see.
The stadium was packed to the rafters with 100,000 people.
When Wilhelm rode in a large parade car appeared at the entrance to the stadium, the German spectators in the stands burst out in unison, a tsunami of thunderous cheers, many foreigners around the startled.
Frenzy!
The same word was in everyone's mind to describe the surrounding crowd. The impression the Germans were giving right now was that unless you could beat him once and for all, you shouldn't mess with him.
Boom Boom Boom --------------------
Just then, the roar of engines came from the sky overhead, only to see three lithe airplanes whizzing by the stadium, pulling out long streaks of colored smoke in black, red, and gold, the colors of the German flag.
Looking at the colorful smoke in the sky, Wilhelm can not help but mutter fortunately not that left spin *, otherwise these pilots responsible for the air show but have to be busy.
In the early nineteenth century, the Germanic region only has many small countries to form a loose confederation, there is no unity and integrity of the country. After the defeat of Napoleon, the sense of Germanic unity began to rise, and at this time there was a group of students composed of the Free Army of Reutzio was very active, they wore black capes, red shoulder epaulettes and gold buttons uniforms for the unity of the movement for the unity of the country, and later on the uniform of the three colors of black, red, and gold became a national unity movement of the symbol of the colors, and made the flag, which became the flag of the country.
When the German unification movement was underway, a poet commented on these three colors: "Black represents the mood of anger, red represents the spirit of the pursuit of freedom, and gold represents the ideal and the light of truth." Nowadays, it is interpreted that black represents diligence and strength, red symbolizes national enthusiasm, and gold signifies the importance of honor.
Guided by a team of colorful cars, the parade car slowly drove towards the center of the stadium, and Wilhelm standing on the parade car was not arrogantly dressed in a German Army uniform like the moustache in the original time and space, but an exquisite dress, with a gentle smile on his face, raising his arms in salute.
When Wilhelm announced the opening of the Olympic Games, the bell of the clock tower rang, the side of the huge Olympic rings, carrying the flag of the International Olympic Committee "Hindenburg" slowly flew over the stadium.
German weightlifter Ismail read the Olympic oath. The famous musician Strauss also participated in the opening ceremony, personally conducting a huge symphony orchestra and 5,000 singers, interpretation of the Olympic Games anthem and Olympic chant.
Before the end of the Opening Ceremony, Luis, the marathon champion of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896, made his appearance.
The 63-year-old athlete, dressed in Greek national costume, held aloft an olive branch taken from Mount Olympus, walked up to Wilhelm and said with unparalleled solemnity. "I give you this olive branch, which symbolizes benevolence and peace. We hope that the peoples will always participate only in this peaceful competition."
"... " What's that saying? Hope is good, reality is cruel! Soon you will realize how cruel reality can be!
But the superficiality still needs to be done, Wilhelm likewise received the olive branch with incomparable solemnity, and said loudly into the microphone. "Germany longs for peace, may the whole world bathe in peace from now on, we swear to always guard peace and stay away from war!"
His words moved almost the entire world at this moment, and the entire German public stood up and chanted. "Hail Hohenzollern!!!"
Athletes from various countries then began to enter, and those in the audience gave their blessing to their country's sport. In this Olympics, Germany sent the largest team, with a total of 406 athletes, and unlike in the original time and space, there were a dozen or so extra Judeans in the German delegation, because of the absence of that extreme nationalistic policy of the moustache guy.
Speaking of the Jews, the day after those Jews delegates left last time, Elder Bloom once again paid a visit and very dryly stated that they would fully support Wilhelm's cause.
Although Wilhelm was a little confused by such joy, after all, these guys were all shrewd businessmen and there was no way they could be fooled by his words.
However, since they were willing to cooperate, Wilhelm had no reason to refuse. In this way the two sides hit it off, Elder Bloom immediately took out a huge sum of money that made Wilhelm's jaw drop, a kind of pitch, so that Wilhelm couldn't help but marvel at how much money these Jewish people actually had.
After half a month of fierce battle, all the gold medals have been taken, Germany with 33 gold medals in the first place, the United States with 22 gold medals in the second place, Hungary with 10 gold medals in the third place.
Another good thing about this Olympics was that it was organized with unprecedented success, casting a smokescreen of peace for Germany's war preparations and objectively making peace-loving propaganda for Germany. It made Britain and France relax their vigilance against Germany, and London and Paris were generally convinced that Germany had no intention of war, and even the previous invasion of the Rhineland was only a re-energizing.
As for Germany's support for the Spanish Civil War, it is more they are happy to see Germany against the Red Empire, it is too late to support it, how can they oppose it.
