Chapter 889: Bring Down Sebastian

The scandals of the London Olympic Games have emerged one after another, which has caused IOC President Rogge a headache. He even began to worry about the next Olympic Games in Brazil.

The phone rang, and Roger picked up the receiver immediately.

"Mr. Chairman, I have something to report to you. The previous gymnastics scandal, according to your instructions, we issued a warning to the London Olympic Organizing Committee in the form of a drug test on British athletes."

"Could it be that something was really found out?" Roger asked.

"Yes, Laura Trotter, the previous gold medalist in the track cycling women's team pursuit, tested positive for her urine."

"Laura Trott, I remember this player, she is known as the number one beauty in track cycling, right?" Roger asked.

"You're right, that's what the British call her. She had a positive urine test in 2009."

"That means you have a criminal record!" Roger said angrily. He thought for a while and said, "Report this matter to the London Olympic Organizing Committee and let them deal with it!"

"Leave it to the London Olympic Organizing Committee? Mr. Chairman, please forgive me. Laura Trott was originally a British athlete, and she also won a gold medal for Britain. If she used doping, the British gold medal She will also be deprived, so I think the British Olympic Organizing Committee will defend her in every possible way."

"I know, handing it over to the London Olympic Organizing Committee is equivalent to letting the London Olympic Organizing Committee be both an athlete and a referee. Laura Trott will be fine. But don't forget, it is the time for the London Olympic Games after all. For some things, we still have to take the face of the British into consideration." Rogge sighed helplessly, and he continued: "Let this matter be handled by the British Olympic Organizing Committee. Sebastian has been in charge of the IAAF for many years. , must be able to give a reasonable explanation.”

...

When Sebastian learned that Zhang Guan had defeated Kenny, he was naturally distraught, but this time he did not go to see Zhang Guan's post-match interview. The main reason was that the TV remote control was blocked by Sebastian. I broke it, and it hasn't been fixed yet. If Sebastian watched the TV interview, he would definitely hear Zhang Guan's "thanks" to him again.

However, something that made Sebastian feel "worse" came again. The International Olympic Committee Anti-Doping Committee sent a report that Laura Trott, the champion of the track cycling women's team pursuit, was killed Doping was detected.

Laura Trott is a player with a previous doping record, and this time she also won a gold medal for Britain. If her use of doping is confirmed, the gold medal for Britain must be lost, so Sebastian In any case, Tian will keep this gold medal for Britain.

"The International Olympic Committee handed over this matter to our London Olympic Organizing Committee to take into account the host's face. We owe Rogge another favor!" Sebastian sighed, and he called his assistant , opened his mouth and asked: "Go find Sutton, the head coach of the track cycling team, and ask him to prepare a drug application for Laura Trott. The time was written three months ago. Get it here when you are ready. I will cover it." Chapter to apply for a doping exemption for Laura Trott."

The assistant hesitated for a moment. He knew that this was a forged document. It was not only a moral issue, but it might also be classified as a crime. However, since it was Sebastian's order, he still followed it.

In many cases, the drugs used to treat diseases also contain stimulant ingredients. For example, many drugs used to treat high blood pressure contain diuretics, and diuretics are a type of stimulant, and athletes are not allowed to use them.

Athletes are also human beings, so they will naturally get sick, and they also have to take medicine when they get sick, so they often come across drugs containing stimulants. However, if you are sick, you have to treat the disease. At this time, athletes can apply to the management agency for medication, and according to the ingredients of the drug, some doping ingredients are exempted. This is the so-called "doping exemption".

Of course, if an athlete uses an exempted doping agent without permission, the management agency or the anti-doping organization will have no way to verify it, so many netizens jokingly call it a "doping drug with a license".

Athletics has always been the hardest-hit area for doping. As the president of the IAAF, Sebastian is even more proficient in the trick of doping immunity. So when he learned that Laura Trott was tested for doping, he immediately decided to forge a drug application and grant Laura Trott a doping exemption.

...

In the evening, Zhang Guan participated in another boxing quarter-final.

When I returned to my residence, I saw Gilbert, a Belgian cyclist, waiting there.

"Zhang! You're finally back!" Gilbert immediately went up to meet him and said, "I'm here to say goodbye to you. I'm going back to Belgium tomorrow."

"It's a pity that I still have a game tomorrow, so I can't see you off. I wish you the best of luck!" Zhang Guan said.

"Thank you. Thank you." Gilbert continued: "I'm referring to the last parade. Thank you for participating."

"Don't say that, I am also a cyclist, and our parade didn't have any effect." Zhang Guan spread his hands and said.

"The London Olympic Organizing Committee is really shameless! I just heard that the anti-doping organization found out that Laura Trott was doping, and then the London Olympic Organizing Committee immediately granted her a doping exemption!" Gilbert said angrily.

"Laura Trott?" Zhang Guan repeated the name, feeling somewhat impressed.

"You may not know her, she is a British track cyclist, known as the number one beauty in track cycling! By the way, the Kenny you defeated today seems to be her boyfriend." Gilbert explained.

"It's her!" After Gilbert's reminder, Zhang Guan had already remembered who Laura Trott was.

Laura Trott is known as the "first goddess" of track cycling, and she and Kenny are also known as the champion couple. If there is no Zhang Guan, after the future Olympic Games, this couple will have won 10 Olympic gold medals in total.

Because Laura Trott looks very good, at least Europeans like this kind of classical beauty, so in the UK, Laura Trott is also quite popular, even the second prince of the UK, once Invite her to watch the game together.

As for Laura Trott's use of doping, it is not groundless, but based on facts. As early as 2009, she had been tested positive for doping, but she was not well-known at that time. The most well-known doping incident about her was the revelation of the Russian hacker organization "Fantasy Bear" after the Rio Olympics.

At the Rio Olympics, the IAAF banned the Russian track and field team from participating on the grounds that the Russian track and field team used large-scale doping. The International Olympic Committee even almost banned the entire Russian team from participating in the Rio Olympics.

The fighting nation quickly retaliated. After the Olympics, a Russian hacker organization named "Fantasy Bear" hacked into the computer of the International Olympic Committee and found a large number of European and American athletes' records about "doping immunity". Apparently, they are all athletes who legally use doping, and most of them are athletes from the United States, Britain and Australia.

Laura Trott is one of them. Her name appears in the list of the third batch of "Fantasy Bears", and she is also the most famous one.

"The doping immunity incident! How could I have forgotten this. Maybe this is a way to oust Sebastian! But I need to find a helper." At this time, Zhang Guan suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment. Feel.

...

The last IAAF president was Diack, a Senegalese. Diack has been living in France since he stepped down as IAAF president.

Diack, who was born in 1933, is already 79 years old. At this age, he has already lost a lot of sleep, so Diack got up early in the morning, and after a simple grooming, he was ready to have breakfast.

At this moment, the phone rang, and an unfamiliar number appeared on the phone.

Diack still uses a feature phone, which is difficult for someone his age to embrace a smartphone.

"A number I don't know? Who could it be? Advertising? No, it seems to be a foreign number." Diack hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the phone.

"Chairman Diack, hello, I'm Zhang Guan, and you personally awarded me the Golden League award back then, do you remember me?" Zhang Guan's voice came from the phone.

"Zhang Guan!" Diack was a little surprised, and he said, "Of course I remember you! Young man, long time no see, why do you suddenly think of me as an old man? Oh, I am no longer the chairman of the IAAF, I Just a retired old man."

After Zhang Guan and Diack said a few more polite words, they began to get to the point.

"Chairman Diack, I have some bad news for you." Zhang Guan said.

Diack was taken aback, and he immediately asked, "What's the news?"

"The IAAF wants to investigate you. It's about black money and bribery." Zhang Guan said.

"Oh?" Although Diack made a questioning tone, his heart was already tense.

Although Diack has resigned, but he has been in charge of the IAAF for ten years, coupled with the years as the vice president before, he will naturally cultivate a large number of cronies in the IAAF, so he has already received the news and knows The IAAF wants to investigate the matter of accepting bribes, but Sebastian is busy with the London Olympics and has not spared time yet. After the London Olympics is over, Sebastian will definitely put the investigation on the agenda.

"How did Zhang Guan know about this, and how much more does he know?" Diack thought anxiously. He wished Zhang Guan could reveal more, but he had to pretend that he didn't know.

Just listening to the phone, Zhang Guan went on to say: "As far as I know, the IAAF's investigation mainly has two directions, one is the postponement of the Russian athletes' doping inspection, and the other is the declaration of the Rio Olympics. There are also bits and pieces like broadcast rights for track and field events.”

"What? Zhang Guan actually knows so much!" Diack's heart had already set off a turbulent wave.

At that time, a large number of track and field athletes in Russia were tested for doping problems. Diack helped Russia in the re-examination. He deliberately postponed the re-examination time, and received more than one million euros from Russia for this.

Diack is also a member of the Olympic Committee, so when Rio bid for the Olympic Games, Brazil paid Diack's son Diack Jr. 1.5 million US dollars as a public relations fee in exchange for Diack's interest in Rio. support. As for the upcoming bid for the 2020 Olympic Games, Tokyo has also approached Diack, ready to pay for Diack to support Tokyo.

As for the broadcasting rights of track and field events, it was nothing more than that Diack received money from several TV stations, and then sold the broadcasting rights of track and field events at a low price.

Of course, the bribes Diack accepted are far more than these. After being the president of the IAAF for so many years, Diack has made a lot of money. If this is really found out, not only will Diack himself go to jail, but His son, Diack Jr., will also have to be imprisoned for a few years.

"These are all non-existent things, they are slanders!" Diack said quite righteously, but he didn't have much confidence in his heart.

At the same time, Diack's tone became quite unfriendly, he thought that Zhang Guan wanted to continue this incident to blackmail him.

Zhang Guan smiled slightly, and he said, "I believe you are innocent, but will Sebastian believe it? After the London Olympics, he will still start the investigation process."

"Then let him investigate, since I haven't done it, what are you afraid of!" Diack said rather stubbornly.

"That's right!" Zhang Guan paused, and then said, "I thought you wanted Sebastian to step down!"

"Once the president of the IAAF is elected, he can definitely be re-elected. The previous presidents of the IAAF have also served until retirement. Sebastian is not yet 60 years old, and he is still far from the retirement age! "Diack's voice stopped suddenly, and he suddenly thought of another possibility.

"You mean to force Sebastian to resign voluntarily, or start impeachment proceedings? You have his handle?" Diack asked. After all, he has been the chairman of the IAAF for decades, and after careful thought, he understood Zhang Guan's intentions.

"Yes." Zhang Guan admitted straightforwardly, and he continued: "It's about doping immunity."

"Doping immunity? As far as I know, Sebastian has indeed signed a lot in the past two years, but is this a problem? The athletes who apply for drugs must follow the procedures, and there are doctors' diagnoses on them." , If someone cheats, it should also be the responsibility of the doctors and athletes, and Sebastian cannot be found." Diack said.

"But as far as I know, not everyone can obtain this doping exemption right. More than 200 people apply in Russia every year, and I'm afraid less than ten can get it." Zhang Guan said.

"This is not a problem. He is the president of the IAAF. He has the right not to approve any athlete's application." Diack said.

"But there are also nearly 200 track and field athletes in the UK who applied, but almost all of them passed!" Zhang Guan said.

"Oh? Really? Is your information accurate?" Diack asked.

"You should be better at collecting specific data than I am. I think if this news is released, it will be enough to be used as a reason to impeach Sebastian?" Zhang Guan said.

Zhang Guan's news comes from the Russian hacker "Fantasy Bear" who broke the news in later generations. According to the data given by "Fantasy Bear", almost all athletes who can pass the doping exemption are from the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, while almost none of the Russian athletes person through the application.

After this news came out, of course the whole world was in an uproar. The whole world knew that the IAAF and the IOC had double standards when it came to doping. The United States, the United Kingdom and Australia could use doping just by writing an application, while The Russians refused to approve any applications. When it came time to compete, everyone used doping. The United States, Britain and Australia won gold medals, but Russia was banned directly.

If you compare the doping immunity obtained by the United Kingdom and the doping immunity obtained by Russia alone, it seems very intuitive. In terms of track and field athletes, the passing rate of British athletes is almost 100%, while that of Russian athletes is almost 100%. to zero.

This is enough to make a big fuss about someone with a heart. As the chairman of an international organization, the most important thing is to treat all member states equally, at least on the surface. For example, the South Korean chairman of the United Nations, when he encountered the nuclear issue on the Korean peninsula, he dealt with it extremely cautiously, trying to stand in a neutral position as much as possible, for fear that a slightly tilted position would cause big trouble.

As a British citizen, Sebastian would be a reason for impeachment if he used his status as the chairman of the IAAF to seek interests for the United Kingdom.

For example, when it comes to doping exemption, everyone follows the procedure, and the IAAF also approves it according to the procedure. But once there is a comparison, it feels different. The applications of the British were all passed, but the applications of people from other countries were not approved. People naturally thought that it was the British chairman Sebastian who gave the green light for his compatriots!

If it were a few years later, Sebastian would already be in power, and Diack would be arrested by the French police for accepting bribes. The same thing would not harm Sebastian, and no one would impeach him.

But the situation is different now. Diack still has several titles on him, and he still has cronies in the IAAF, but Sebastian still wants to investigate Diack's corruption incident. Self-protection will inevitably launch the impeachment of Sebastian.

Diack will not let go of this opportunity. For Diack, if Sebastian does not step down, he is afraid that he will go to prison.
