Chapter 147 Chapter 147: Olympic bid

The three days of the college entrance examination ended quickly. Shanhe walked out of the examination room for the last subject and let out a long breath.

Although this exam is just a formality for him, it represents that he is an adult again. Like his peers, he can bear more and do more!

One hour after completing the exam, Shanhe received a call from the Olympic Bid Committee. He had more important tasks to complete.

That afternoon, Shanhe boarded a flight to Moscow under the expectant eyes of the staff and family members of the Shanghai Municipal Government.

More than ten hours later, Shanhe arrived at SOV Airport at 4 a.m. in Moscow, where Olympic Bidding Committee staff had been waiting for a long time.

Shanhe met He Jining in the hotel lobby, "Shanhe, go and rest first. There are still a few days left. You have to speak on behalf of the Beijing Olympics Bid Committee. Just watch this last shudder!"

Shanhe looked at He Jining's red eyes and nodded, "We will succeed. I know the speech by heart, don't worry!"

He Jining patted Shan He on the shoulder, turned and walked towards the hotel conference room.

Shanhe joined the Beijing Olympics Bid Committee's final defense preparations the next day. Yang Lan will speak on behalf of the Beijing Olympics Bid Committee, which will last about four to five minutes.

She and several Olympic bid committee leaders will make a final speech and reply to the International Olympic Committee on behalf of China.

Phoenix Satellite TV has organized a huge broadcast team to arrive in Moscow starting from the 10th. They will broadcast the entire last moment of China's bid to host the Olympics.

Hosts Dou Wentao and Chen Luyu are nervously doing outdoor interviews. They will witness the announcement of the final results in the studio with Coco Lee and Stephen Chow.

At two o'clock in the afternoon on July 13, 2001, Moscow time, Phoenix TV's live broadcast began.

"In another thirty minutes, the Beijing Olympic Bid Committee will begin its final speech and defense. Yang Landu will give a speech on behalf of all the Chinese people. The Chinese delegation will also make a final statement on the Olympic bid. The Executive Chairman of the Olympic Bid Committee will After the last defense, voting will begin, and the results will be announced tonight. We are all looking forward to the good news!" Dou Wentao said excitedly.

"Wen Tao, you are familiar with Yang Lan, right? Let me tell you your impression of her now that you have time!" Chen Luyu adjusted the atmosphere from the side.

"Everyone knows Yang Lan's experience in China. She is also famous abroad. She obtained a master's degree in international affairs from Columbia in two years, and then co-produced a show with a Pulitzer Prize winner, which was broadcast on prime time in the United States. was broadcast and received wide acclaim.

She was invited to attend the United Nations "1997 World Television Forum" that year. He was also elected to the School of International Relations at Columbia University.”

Li Min was surprised by Dou Wentao's introduction, "Yang Lan is so powerful! We really didn't know!"

"Yang Lan graduated from the University of Foreign Studies. She is fluent in English and has experience abroad. She is the most suitable to speak on behalf of the Olympic bid committee! In terms of popularity alone, Shanhe is the most famous one!" Chen Luyu explained.

"I know the mountains and rivers. The young genius writer is famous all over the world!" Zhou Xingxing interjected.

"Is he also famous in Hong Kong Island?" Chen Luyu asked.

"It's very famous! His novels are selling well in Hong Kong Island, I have bought some, and Hollywood is pursuing his scripts!" Zhou Xingxing replied.

Dou Wentao said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I was the host of Shanhe's first TV show. At that time, he was still relatively immature. He didn't even know the process of recording the program. He was still a half-grown child, but he spoke very maturely. He has ideas and dares to speak out! I feel a little emotional. In just a few years, Shanhe has grown to this point. His resume is even more amazing than Yang Lan. Being selected as the image ambassador of the Beijing Olympics Bid Committee of China is worthy of his name!"

Several hosts in the live broadcast room chatted with each other about various experiences in Shanhe.

At this time, Shanhe was waiting attentively in the audience for Yang Lan to appear.

Shanhe suppressed the excitement and nervousness in his heart and watched Yang Lan's appearance and stunning performance.

At the end of Yang Lan's four-minute smooth and stunning speech, the audience burst into warm applause.

On the other side, Phoenix TV's live broadcast broadcast Yang Lan's English speech live.

At this time, countless people in China were focusing their attention on this young lady who had a calm expression and spoke fluently.

The Shanhe family was in front of the TV in the Beijing hotel. They were excited, nervous and worried. Xie Meiyu even hoped that these few hours would pass quickly. She was afraid that there would be mistakes in the Olympic bid process and that the results would not meet expectations!

The classmates and teachers of Modu No. 2 Middle School, acquaintances in the Beijing film industry, the whole county in northern Fujian, the folks in front of the TV in my hometown, almost everyone who knows Shanhe are paying attention to this few-minute speech, although they Most of them can’t understand it!

A few minutes later, Yang Lan's speech ended, and the audience applauded warmly. Then the chairman of the Chinese Olympic Committee spoke, and finally the Chinese Beijing Olympic Bid Committee made a concluding statement.

After Yang Lan stepped down, almost all members of the delegation stepped forward to greet her. Several lesbians helped Yang Lan, whose legs were a little weak.

"Director He, what did I say?"

“Excellent, impeccable!”

Several staff members also gave Yang Lan a thumbs up.

In the Phoenix TV live broadcast room here, several hosts are also discussing Yang Lan's speech.

"Yang Lan's speeches are all wonderful! The words are accurate, the speech is all in English, and the speech is fluent and amazing!"

"I don't understand half of what I heard. My English is very poor. Li Wen, your English is good. How do you feel?" Zhou Xingxing asked Li Wen.

"That's great. You're worthy of being a top graduate from the University of Foreign Languages!" Li Wen replied.

"That's good! My legs are shaking from nervousness!"

"Master Xing, I heard that your coming to Moscow this time had some twists and turns, and your visa was almost blocked. Is it because you don't speak English well enough?" Dou Wentao made a joke.

"I was invited by you, and I must come. If you don't let me get on the plane, I will walk over!" Zhou Xingxing replied firmly.

"Haha!" Dou Wentao smiled and changed the subject, "The T-shirt Li Wen is wearing today is very eye-catching!"

"Yes, I came here specially wearing the five-star red flag to bring some good luck to the Olympic bid and cheer for our country!"

"Today, there are many guests coming to Moscow, and Simon Yam is also here. Let's ask him about his mood and thoughts at the moment!"

"Now that the bidding process for the Beijing Olympics in China has been completed, the voting process will begin soon. The results will come out in a few hours. We pray for China and the capital, and may our wishes come true!"

In the Moscow International Trade Center, in the conference room of the Olympic Bid Committee in the capital of China, everyone was silently waiting for the final result.

The dinner on the table was almost untouched. Mr. Yuan sat on the chair and rubbed the lines between his eyebrows. "Everyone has eaten first. We have done what we need to do. What we need now is to eat and wait patiently!"

Seeing Mr. Yuan start to use his chopsticks, everyone started dinner absentmindedly.

Shanhe looked at the image ambassadors at the table. Deng Yaping, Gong Li, Yang Lan, Liu Xuan, and Sang Xue all lost the desire to talk and chewed the tasteless food quietly.

Waiting is the most tedious time. Although Shanhe knew the answer in his heart, he was still infected by this invisible pressure and became impatient!

A few hours later, at 9:30 pm Moscow time, all participants gathered in the large conference room of the trade center.

The results are already out, just waiting for International Olympic Committee President Antonio Samaranch to take the stage to announce.

Shanhe sat in the middle of the delegation. Although he was sure that Beijing would win the right to host, he still felt uncontrollable nervousness!

At ten o'clock in the evening, Olympic Committee President Juan Antonio Samaranch walked onto the podium tremblingly.

He slowly opened the envelope containing the results with trembling hands, and read the contents in the envelope slowly.

At 10:08, Samaranch finally said the word "capital"!

The Chinese delegation in the audience was excited. Everyone stood up and shouted, shook hands and hugged each other. Most people's eyes were red, and Shanhe was no exception. He kept shaking hands and hugging the people around him. Hua succeeded, and the capital succeeded. Got it!

The live broadcast room of Phoenix Satellite TV also fell into a carnival. Several hosts hugged each other tightly, and all the staff in the studio burst into excitement and cheered.

"It's the capital! It's China, we succeeded!"

Dou Wentao unbuttoned his collar, Zhou Xingxing couldn't help but jump. The five-star T-shirt Li Wen was wearing was so conspicuous!

At this time, the land of China was already in a carnival, and all the people who were paying attention to the results of the Olympic bid were shouting and jumping.

Tiananmen Square and Chang'an Street in the capital were brightly lit, and more and more people gathered. Everyone came here spontaneously, congratulating each other and shouting to each other.

Magic City, Guangdong, and Hong Kong Island have all turned into a sea of ​​joy.

Shanhe's family members were also hugging and celebrating, and their feelings were deeper because Shanhe was at the scene. Yu Zhengchong burst into tears and kept wiping the tears from his eyes.

Qiu Jiang's eyes were also red, and he kept waving his fists.

Xie Meiyu and Master Xie hugged each other while choking.

Only Qiu Chuxi was the most innocent. Watching the jubilant scenes on TV, she kept running and shouting, "My brother won!"

The sound of firecrackers in the northern Fujian county was more concentrated than during the Chinese New Year. Many people came to the streets to set off firecrackers. They were all proud of the country and the mountains and rivers!

The bench queue in Shanhe's hometown has already started. Every household carried a bench to join in. After a while, a long and winding line of lanterns took shape on the road. They will walk along the road to the next village, and there are still people in the process. Keep carrying the bench and join in!

As a reborn person, Shanhe knows that this success will not only mean the arrival of the Olympic Games, he will represent the rise of China again, and the pace of China's rejuvenation will be faster and faster.

Compared to the excitement of other team members, Shanhe quickly adjusted. After all, he had determined the result.

He found He Jining who was sitting next to him, holding his head and choking, pulled him up and gave him a heavy hug, "Director He, we succeeded! Two years of hard work have not been in vain!"

"Shanhe, we succeeded!"

Mr. Yuan was accepting the congratulations from the Olympic Committee members. From the moment Samaranch announced, the Beijing Olympic Bid Committee had automatically transformed into the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee.

Shanhe's Olympic bid journey has come to an end. When he woke up from his deep sleep the next day, he even felt the emptiness after the joy.

Shanhe kept answering the phone all morning. At noon, the Beijing Olympics Bid Committee announced that a celebration banquet would be held tonight and invited almost all the participants.

Shanhe and several image ambassadors kept accepting inquiries from the media, and everyone was still intoxicated in the excitement of yesterday.

But Shanhe's heart drifted towards China.

At this time in China, the front pages of all newspapers were headlines about the successful bid for the Olympics.

Within a day, this news spread throughout China, and everyone was discussing this topic!

The media introduced the entire Moscow meeting to the public in detail.

The specific speeches and responses, the number of votes received, and everyone’s reaction after the success were all highlighted by the media!
