The Winter Olympics are far inferior to the Summer Olympics in terms of participating countries, number of participants and attention.
The projects of the Winter Olympics are all ice and snow projects, so these countries that are relatively close to the equator are basically impossible to participate in the Winter Olympics. For example, most African countries, Caribbean countries, and Pacific island countries in Oceania have seen them all their lives. Without snow, it can be said that it is completely missed from the winter project.
In the Summer Olympics, almost all countries in the world will participate. Even if it is the effect of tens of thousands of people, it will send one or two athletes to come. In the Winter Olympics, it is good to have 80 or 90 countries participating. At the end of the last century, there were about two or three thousand talented athletes at the Winter Olympics, and there are currently about three or four thousand athletes. Although the number has increased, it is still only a fraction of the number of participants in the Summer Olympics.
The qualifications for the Winter Olympics are also easier to obtain than the Summer Games. The admission tickets for many items in the Summer Games are very precious, and the admission tickets for many items in the Winter Olympics may only require a few months of training. Yes, many athletes participating in the Winter Olympics are amateur athletes. As long as your country is willing to sign up for some projects, you will have the opportunity to participate in the Winter Olympics.
At one Olympics, Tonga, a Pacific island country, wanted to participate, but Tonga was located near the equator. There was no snow at all throughout the year. The King of Tonga even offered a reward throughout the country. Those who called for skiing could not find any one. Finally Tonga chose a person and sent it to a foreign country for half a year for training, and fulfilled his dream of participating in the Winter Olympics. A person born in Tonga who has only trained for half a year can participate in the Winter Olympics, which is enough to show that the threshold for the Winter Olympics is not high.
Amateur or quasi-professional athletes are determined to participate in the Winter Olympics, and athletes who are truly capable of competing for medals are also professional-level players. So it is often seen that the Winter Olympic Games are divided into two groups ab, group a is a professional level with a relatively high level, which is to compete for medals, and group b is a non-professional level with a relatively low level, even if it takes It is also missed to the medal in the b group.
The qualifications for the short track speed skating event are calculated by country/region. The qualified country can send three people to participate in the short track speed skating competition, and if it is qualified for the relay race, it can send five people to participate. It's just that the short track speed skating project is tossing and turning, that is, those few countries are playing, so basically every participating country is relatively fixed. And short track speed skating has only four events, 500m, 1000m, 1500m plus a relay, so many contestants are required to participate in three events at the same time, even if all four events are normal Case.
The national team has qualified for the short track speed skating relay in the Vancouver Winter Olympics, so it can send five players to participate. Five men and women, a total of ten players participate in the short track speed skating event. As for who will be sent to participate, of course, the Winter Sports Center said.
The reason why Zhang Guan proposed to participate in the short track speed skating project is because there is no need to obtain additional qualifications for the project. Now there are still two months left before the opening of the Winter Olympics. It is difficult to obtain the right to participate in other projects. For short track speed skating, Zhang Guan can participate if he knows that the Winter Sports Center will nod and agree.
At the same time, Zhang Guan's doing so also put the Winter Sports Center into a dilemma.
...
Director Wang of the Winter Sports Center didn’t expect that Zhang Guan’s counterattack came so fast. He had just returned from the General Manager’s forefoot, and a call came from the rear of the General Manager’s body. .
meeting room. Director Wang summoned several major leaders.
"Zhang Guan asked us for a short track speed skating entry. Let's talk about your views." Director Wang glanced at everyone in the meeting room.
"It must not be given to him! Let me tell you, this Zhang Guan is specially designed to add to our confusion. The incident he caused a few days ago has already caused our work to become very passive, and now we have a short track. Slip entry? Isn't this too much? Isn't it true that he thinks our winter sports center is bullying?" A very angry guy said first.
"But if Zhang Guan is not given this quota, will it be true for us? Zhang Zhang said, if he goes, he will definitely get a gold medal, and he will dare to make a "war order"."
"Zhang Guan bragging, do you really believe it? He is not a skater. I am afraid he will not even wear skates. Can he participate in short track speed skating? He runs very fast on the flat ground, but on the ice, I will Do not believe him can break the world record!"
"I don't know if I'm bragging, but old Li, don't forget, we just gave the general plan, but we wiped out the original goals of the three gold medals. The crown said, To help the national team earn these three gold medals, can we not let him go?"
"He said that he can earn the gold medal, can he really earn it? That's the gold medal in the Winter Olympics, not the Chinese cabbage on the street." Lao Li said.
"Okay, let's not give him the quota. When the Winter Olympics arrive, if the results are not satisfactory, who should bear the responsibility?"
"Don't you discuss this issue before, and the results are not satisfactory, so I pushed it to this personnel change. The personnel change was caused by Zhang Guan's anti-corruption turmoil. He was so troublesome and let him be blamed. "Lao Li continued.
"That was before, now we can't find this excuse myself. People Zhang Guan has already offered to go to the Winter Olympics to win gold, to help us solve the difficulties, it depends on whether we give him a chance. Don't you I don’t see it. He is mainly anti-guest. If our winter Olympics performance is not satisfactory, Zhang Guan can say that he proposed to help us win gold in the winter sports center before the game, but we do not give him the opportunity to let him If you lose, you can't rely on him. By that time, it will become our own responsibility."
"Then give him a quota, I don't believe that he really has the ability to get the gold medal! He also made a military warrant, I see how he stepped down!"
"That's not okay. We only have five places in total. How can we waste one place on him. Zhang Guan is obviously bragging. Short-track speed skating looks like a sport of technology. How many years of hard work does it take? Went on the field? Director Wang, the four-year Winter Olympics, can we not make such a hasty decision!" Someone immediately objected.
The person who opposed was the leader of the Skating Association. Short-track speed skating was the project of the Skating Association, so he certainly did not want Zhang Guanzhan to take a valuable place. Moreover, short track speed skating is the strength of the national team. So many excellent athletes are crowded to participate in the four-year Winter Olympics. How can the leaders of the ice association be willing to give Zhang Guan a place.
"I see, Zhang Guan guessed that we would not give him this quota, so he was so fearless."
"You can't give it, you can't give it, what can you do? Zhang Guan, it really makes us in a dilemma!"
"Director Wang, I have a suggestion." Suddenly someone said: "We might as well try a trial and let Zhang Guan also participate. Doesn't he say he can win gold at the Winter Olympics? If even our national team athletes I can't win, I see what other face he has to face against us!"
"It's a good idea. It's a mule or a horse. It's a good idea for the boys of our national team!"
"I don't think it's necessary to go to the men's team, the women's team can win him, ha ha ha..."
However, the old Li suddenly splashed cold water: "You said, what if there is a championship that won in the trial? After all, it is five places. He doesn't need to take the first place. The qualification to represent the national team."
"Win? How could it be possible! Lao Li, I think you are confused. That's short-track speed skating. You think you are running 100 meters, as long as you run fast! Short-track speed skating has very high technical requirements. Zhang Guan, even if he can skate two times, can never have the ability to fight. Moreover, Zhang Guan is not a Northeastern. Their province does not even have skating, and Zhang Guan has no chance of contacting short-track speed skating. As long as he dares to come to participate in the qualifiers, he will lose!"
