Chapter 886 The Olympic Organizing Committee is Manipulating the Competition!

Murray watched the game with a look of despair in his eyes.

In the fourth set between the two sides, the current score is 4-0, with Zhang Guan leading. That is to say, in the fourth set, Murray failed to win a game, but was broken twice by Zhang Guan.

In a game, being broken twice basically means that the set has been lost. And considering the current total score of 2-1, if Murray loses this set, he will lose the entire game.

"Are you really going to lose?" Murray panted heavily. He looked to the opposite side, but found that Zhang Guan's movements were still agile.

"Don't he feel tired?" There was confusion in Murray's eyes.

In the stands, the audience still watched Murray eagerly. Even though Murray lost two breaks in this set, they still support Murray and still hope that Murray can complete the reversal.

However, Federer, who was also in the stands, knew that the moment Zhang Guan got his first break, the game was over.

"Zhang Guan is sure to win! I didn't expect that he was not affected by this devil's home atmosphere!" Federer glanced at Murray: "As for Murray, he is already tired. Without Zhang Guan's rhythm, losing is only a matter of time."

Federer let out a long sigh. Although Murray is very capable, Federer did not regard Murray, a rising star, as an equal existence with himself. He felt that as long as he could overcome the devil's home court in England, he would not lose to Murray in the semifinals.

"Zhang Guan is indeed better than me in this aspect. His psychological quality is really good. Facing the atmosphere of Wimbledon, he can still maintain such a good state, as if he has not been affected at all! Amazing! Really Amazing! Based on this, I, Federer, are convinced..."

Federer's thoughts were no longer in the game, and on the court, in the fourth set between the two sides, Murray lost his third break. In the end, the score of the fourth set was fixed at 6-0, and Zhang Guan won the fourth set. At the same time, with a total score of 3-1, he defeated Murray and defended the gold medal in the Olympic tennis event.

...

At the North Greenwich Stadium, Chen Dabing looked frustrated. His whole set of moves was obviously better than Zanetti's, and Zanetti had a small flaw when he landed, but when the referee gave points, he was better than Zanetti. Nettie is 0.1 less!

Gymnastics in the London Olympics does not allow appeals, so the result given by the referee is the final result. Chen Dabing can only accept the disappointing result of the silver medal.

"Don't be discouraged, in my eyes, you will always be the best!" The coach stepped forward and patted Chen Dabing on the shoulder to comfort him.

At this moment, the team leader rushed over, walked up to the coach and Chen Dabing, and said, "If a reporter interviews and asks about the Olympic Organizing Committee's pre-determined champion, or the Olympic Organizing Committee's control over the results of the competition, Don’t say anything, remember not to say anything! On this matter, we can’t express our position without authorization, and we have to wait for the leaders to discuss it before making a decision.”

The coach and Chen Dabing were stunned at the same time, and the coach was the first to ask, "Did something happen?"

The team leader nodded: "It was reported by the media that the London Olympic Organizing Committee manipulated the results of the competition and designated Zanetti as the champion of the rings event."

"Manipulating the results of the game? Still deciding the champion by default? Some people dare to say such things! If there is no actual evidence, the media who say such things will have to bear serious consequences, and maybe they will be sued!" The coach also understands, some Said in disbelief.

"The key is that there is actual evidence in the news. They listed the default scores of the players. Dabing's score was 15.800, and Zanetti's score was 15.900, which is exactly the same as the result of the competition." The team leader continued: "And this news still came out. In the papers this morning, at that time, the rings hadn't even started!"

...

In the European media circles in the past two days, the sales volume of several small newspapers has skyrocketed. The game process also confirmed that these revelations are true!

With these revelations, the sales of these small newspapers have also increased, but after all, they are not mainstream newspapers, and the attention is still too low. For example, the "Observator" has only more than 20,000 copies even though its sales have increased, while some large newspapers, such as The Times, usually have a daily circulation of more than 500,000 points, and it even increased to 620,000 points during the Olympics. daily circulation.

Ordinary people basically don't deliberately buy a tabloid to read, such as referees, coaches and participating athletes, I'm afraid they haven't even heard the name of the tabloid. But those reporters who are good at collecting information are quite fond of these tabloids, especially the ones that can break the news.

The reporter had already read the latest revelations in the newspapers in the morning, and no one took it seriously. How could gymnastics, a sport with such great uncertainty, be able to determine the champion in advance? What's more, even the scores of the players were posted this time, which seemed false!

However, the final result of the competition confirmed the news in the newspaper. The scores obtained by the two players who did not make any mistakes were exactly the same as the content of the news! Chen Dabing, who completed the whole set of movements more perfectly, lost to the slightly flawed Zanetti in terms of scores. But it feels so real!

So the ring competition is over, but the ones surrounded by reporters are not the champion Zanetti, the runner-up Chen Dabing, nor other athletes or coaches, but the referees!

The referee raised his head and was startled when he saw a group of reporters rushing up. It is said that the game is over, and there are no referees to do anything. At this time, the reporters should surround the participating athletes and the coaches of each team, and should never rush to the referee immediately.

"What's going on?" The members of the referee team looked at me and I looked at you, all looking at a loss.

"Mr. Referee, it is reported that the London Olympic Organizing Committee manipulated the final result of the game. What do you think about this?" A reporter asked.

The chief referee's heart tightened suddenly. The referee team was not blind. Of course, they could see that Chen Dabing's complete set of movements was much more perfect than Zanetti's. If it is in good conscience, Chen Dabing is more worthy of a gold medal.

However, the London Olympic Organizing Committee has indeed given instructions, hoping to suppress the Chinese team and not let the Chinese team win so many gold medals. There have been similar suppressions in other events before. However, the referees understand this kind of thing in their hearts, but I will never admit it with my mouth.

So when the reporter asked this question, the referee felt a little nervous. The so-called guilty conscience, people who have done bad things will naturally worry that there will be ghosts knocking on the door at night.

But the referee didn't look unnatural. He said, "I don't know where you read these rumors. The Olympic Organizing Committee controls the result of the game? This is completely nonsense."

"There is also news that the organizing committee of the competition has already determined the scores of the players before the competition, and the referees are only scoring the athletes according to the scores determined before the competition!" Another reporter said.

Hearing this, the referee's heart immediately settled down. The Olympic Organizing Committee did not give any default scores, and the referee team did not score according to the so-called default scores. He knew that this must be a rumor, so he was full of confidence.

Gymnastics is full of uncertainties and has too many variables, and the referees still divide the scores into two groups, one for difficulty and one for completion, and the sum of the two is the final score. Therefore, it is also very difficult to let the referees score according to a certain default score.

The referee's expression suddenly became calmer, and he smiled slightly: "I think anyone with a little common sense in gymnastics will know that what you just said is impossible in practice. Our referee's scoring is entirely based on It comes from the player’s on-the-spot performance, we can’t predict how the player will perform on the spot, and if the player makes a mistake, points will definitely be deducted, which is an uncontrollable factor. Therefore, there is no possibility of default scores.”

"What if you don't make mistakes? The news broke that the pre-competition default results are the results of the contestants without making any mistakes. If the contestants make mistakes, points will be deducted from the default results." A reporter said immediately.

The referee glared at the other party angrily. He felt that the other party was being unreasonable, so he said, "Do you have any evidence for what you said? We will have the next event. I don't want you to make unreasonable guesses. It will affect the progress of subsequent games.”

"Of course I have evidence." The reporter took out a German-language newspaper and said, "The things we asked just now are not groundless speculations, but revelations in the newspaper. This is a newspaper published this morning. , It was pointed out above that in the final of the ring event, the London Olympic Organizing Committee has already set the athletes' scores by default, and if the athletes make no mistakes in the competition, the referees will score according to the default scores."

"Ridiculous!" The referee snorted coldly.

The reporter laughed dryly, and he continued: "In today's final, there are two contestants who did not make any obvious mistakes, namely the champion Zanetti and the runner-up Chen Dabing. We compare the results of these two contestants with the newspaper The results revealed on the Internet corresponded. Zanetti’s score was 15.900 points, and Chen Dabing’s score was 15.800 points. The final scores of the contestants were exactly the same as those reported in the newspaper! But those who have watched the game know that Chen Dabing’s moves are better than Zanetti’s. More perfect, but his score is lower, which makes us have to doubt that there is really a so-called default score."

"What!" The referee was startled, and he stared at the newspaper in the reporter's hand in disbelief.

"I also have a newspaper here with the same revelation!" Another reporter took out a French newspaper.

"I have it here, too." The third reporter produced another Spanish newspaper.

The referee turned pale with fright. He felt a big net spreading towards him.

"May I have a look at this one in your hand?" the referee asked one of the reporters. He knows that at this time, he must not be led by the nose by reporters anymore. He must understand in detail what is written in these newspapers. It is best to find one or two obvious loopholes in it, and that will break the game. The essential.

"Of course." The reporter readily handed the newspaper to the referee.

The referee took the newspaper and read it carefully, feeling even more frightened.

"Zanetti and Chen Dabing's results are indeed the same as the newspapers said! Damn, how could there be such a coincidence, is this a divination wizard who broke the news!" The referee couldn't help complaining in his heart.

Although the referee team received the instruction from the London Olympic Organizing Committee to suppress the Chinese team, but there is really no default result, and the results in the newspaper are actually consistent with the players' results, and they are the champion and runner-up. Of course, the referee will feel that Heartbroken.

"If only one person's grades match, I can still call it a coincidence, but if two people's grades match, if it is explained by coincidence, even I find it strange, and the reporter will definitely not believe it. The key is really Only these two people did not make any mistakes, and the results of these two people are consistent with what is written on it! No, I have to find a reasonable explanation." The head referee's mind was spinning rapidly.

As the chief referee of the Olympic gymnastics event, he also has real talents and practical knowledge. In this short tens of seconds, he has already thought of a rhetoric.

The referee smiled slightly and said quite calmly: "Everyone, I think I have to explain the scoring standards of gymnastics first. The scoring of gymnastics is divided into two parts: the difficulty point and the completion point. The two parts are added together. It is the final score. The athlete has no mistakes, so the completion score is high, but what kind of difficulty factor the athlete chooses, this is something that the referee team does not know before the game!"

The chief referee paused, and then said: "It is theoretically possible to pre-define the completion score, but it is definitely impossible to set the total score by default, because the referee does not know what degree of difficulty the athlete will choose. It is also impossible to preset the difficulty score in advance, let alone the total score of the players."

Several reporters began to nod, thinking that what the referee said made sense.

However, at this time, an untimely voice suddenly sounded: "Since you are an athlete aiming for a gold medal, is there any other choice in terms of difficulty?"

One sentence immediately reminded everyone. If it is an ordinary athlete, they may choose a relatively low difficulty coefficient, but as long as they are aiming at the gold medal, they have no choice but to score 6.8.

"That's right, Zanetti, Chen Dabing, and Meranti are hopefuls for the gold medal. They all chose a difficulty factor of 6.8, which is the highest difficulty factor in the rings competition!"

"Athletes whose goal is to win a gold medal will certainly not be able to choose a lower difficulty factor. They will definitely choose the highest difficulty score of 6.8 points!"

"It's no wonder that in this report, except for Zanetti, Chen Dabing and Meranti, the default scores of others are much lower. You must know that this default score is the score of the players without making mistakes. It turns out that the whistleblower It’s a matter of difficulty factor! This whistleblower must be an insider of the London Olympic Organizing Committee, that’s why he knows such details!”

"That's right, except for the real insiders, it is impossible to know such details. It seems that the content of this revelation is true!"

The reporters started discussing one after another, as if they were afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

"No, that's not the case!" The referee panicked immediately. He thought he had found a turning point, but he didn't expect to be self-defeating. Instead, the reporter felt that the content of the revelation was accurate.
