After a summer vacation, a classmate became an Olympic champion?

Chapter 3 The Bad Paris Olympics

"Excuse me, Team Leader Huang, this is the rule of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)!"

"All swimmers must take urine tests immediately after getting off the plane!"

"Please cooperate!"

The WADA official was talking, and many athletes had no choice but to follow the guy to the place he designated and take urine tests.

Chen Shu also had to do it, of course.

He urinated and then gathered with the swimming team.

"You took a urine test the first time you got off the plane. Don't you start taking urine tests 72 hours before the competition?"

"Who knows? Are you being watched?"

"Damn, I knew these white people couldn't hold their farts in. They peed as soon as they got here!"

"This Olympics is not as smooth as we thought!"

"..."

Several world champions in the swimming team were chatting there. Chen Shu followed them without saying a word. Although he had obtained the Olympic qualification, he was still a small shrimp in the entire swimming team. No one expected him to enter the finals, let alone stand on the podium and win the championship.

They all let him feel the participation. After all, he was only 13 years old.

"Okay, keep your voice down!"

"I said this before being targeted. If you don't have anything to do, don't pee randomly. Hold it in!"

"Also, don't eat random food. Did you hear me?"

The team leader Huang Wei was talking. He is the deputy director of the Swimming Sports Management Center of the State Sports General Administration. He was in charge of tennis before. This time he will lead the team in the swimming competition.

"Got it, Team Huang!"

Qin Haiyang curled his lips helplessly. Of course, he was very unhappy.

And one month before the Olympics, they also learned some very bad news. The swimming pool of this Paris Olympics was 0.7 meters shallower than the regular swimming pool. Generally, the depth of the competition pool used all over the world is about 3 meters, but now it is 2.3 meters.

The World Swimming Federation will implement new standards from January 2023, requiring the depth of the Olympic competition pool to be at least 2.5 meters. If multiple events are to be held, the depth of the pool must be 3 meters. But before the new rules were implemented, the depth requirements of swimming pools were more flexible, with a minimum depth of 2 meters and a recommended depth of 3 meters.

This is also bad news for athletes around the world, and it is an advantage for the host country. They may have started trying this shallow pool training a year ago; and the Chinese team had less than a month to adapt.

You should know that the depth of the swimming pool actually has a great impact on athletes. If the swimming pool is shallow, the waves will be relatively large, which is completely different from the usual swimming rhythm.

This is a strategy to disrupt the rhythm of swimmers.

A group of people got on the bus to the Paris Olympic Village helplessly. Along the way, many Olympic projects were still being built there; it was only a few days before the Olympics, and the Paris Olympics were really a mess. Chen Shu couldn't help but complain.

"Hey, I drank too much water before getting off the plane. What should I do if I want to pee now?"

Tokyo OlympicsThe double champion, Chinese butterfly queen Zhang Yufei, was joking, and the world champion Li Bingjie beside her laughed: "Hold it, if you can't hold it, just pee a little, and pee until the next urine test!"

"Haha, our urine is so valuable now, so many institutions want it!"

"Haha!"

Countless people laughed, and the atmosphere of the whole swimming team was still quite good.

It was a kind of joy in suffering.

"I just saw a piece of news, it's so funny, saying that many athletes from other countries brought air conditioners to the competition!"

"America, I saw it too, it seems that our dormitory has air conditioners?"

"Yes, we installed the air conditioners a month in advance, mainly because the building was rented by China and built by the sponsor!"

"Paris is really messing around, can't they even afford to install air conditioners in the competition dormitory?"

"Pay attention to environmental protection and save costs. They say that the climate in Paris is not hot and air conditioners are not needed!"

"I feel quite hot, sweating!"

"..."

Everyone in the car talked about it, and soon they talked about the air conditioners and the losses of the Olympics. It seems that in history, only China and the United States made money by hosting the Olympics, and the other Olympics suffered serious losses; especially Rio and Tokyo.

And several athletes who participated in Tokyo were still complaining after 3 years.

"Don't mention it, the bed used in Paris is still the discarded one left over from Tokyo!"

"The bed is made of cardboard, we will see it later!"

Sure enough, everyone soon arrived at the dormitory of Chinese athletes in the Olympic Village. The whole building was the territory of Chinese athletes. The central air conditioning was turned on very high, and the five-star red flag was flying everywhere; Chen Shu and another young athlete Zhang Zhanshuo lived in the same dormitory.

This guy is only 16 years old. He is the champion of the 800m freestyle national championship this year and the runner-up of the 1500m. He is known as the successor of Sun Yang and trains the same event as him.

"Damn, it's really cardboard!"

Zhang Zhanshuo lifted the bed sheet, and there was indeed a piece of hard cardboard underneath. He jumped on it suddenly, but the bed was unexpectedly hard and did not collapse.

"It's sturdy enough, but this cardboard bed is said to be sold for 700 euros. Why did I buy this thing for more than 6,000 yuan?"

"Haha, you're so stingy. Go to sleep. The jet lag is good!"

Chen Shu shook his head and picked up the "welcome gift package" given to each athlete on the bed. Of course, this was not provided by the Paris Olympic Organizing Committee, but by major sponsors.

There were a lot of things in the bag, including a towel with the Olympic rings, a cup engraved with Coca-Cola, a Samsung mobile phone, a Swatch watch, a JBL speaker... Chen Shu had just put the things away when he heard a knock on the door.

The assistant coach of the swimming team, Lai Simin, said with a gloomy face: "Hurry up, go for a urine test!"

"What?"

"Another urine test?"

Didn't you just take a test once when you got off the plane?

Chen Shu's circle of friends just finished posting the welcome gift package!
