Perhaps he was defeated by the result of No. 14 contestant.
Jiang Chen unexpectedly became the only player to score more than 640 points in the qualifier. This result made a lot of people's jaws drop. However, the most shocking thing was not the 640 score, but the name below the number – Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen. When this name was mentioned, two names would pop up in the minds of most people in the world.
One was Future Group, and the other was Celestial Trade.
Either name was enough to push him to the throne of the richest man in the world. There were even rumors that his personal wealth had surpassed the Rothschild family, the financial hegemon of the old era. With the power of one person, he controlled enough wealth to dominate the entire Wall Street. If his assets were converted into banknotes, he could buy half of the Earth …
However, it was such a capitalist who was deeply rooted in people's hearts with his strong financial resources that created a miracle in the arena as an athlete. This contrast in identity made most people unable to adapt in a short period of time.
Not only was he the richest man in the world, his athletic ability was also insane …
You've reaped all the benefits. Do you still want me to live?!
Player No. 15, Matthew Emmons, who stood next to Jiang Chen, ranked ninth with a score of 613 points. The veteran, who was originally favored to compete for the gold medal, was unexpectedly knocked out and missed the final, which made many people feel sorry for him.
At Matthew's age, this might be the last time he stood in the arena of the Olympic Games. As a result, he didn't even make it to the final and ended his career with a result of 9th place in the qualifying round. It was quite regrettable.
With mixed feelings in his mind, Matthew left the arena with a complicated feeling. He threw his baseball cap on the table in the lounge, took the mineral water from the coach, and silently took a sip.
Looking at the replay of the game on the screen, when he saw the number 630, his heart twitched.
Matthew threw the mineral water on the ground and stood up from the bench.
"I want to report him, he took performance-enhancing drugs!"
Shocked eyes focused on Matthew, and all the athletes in the lounge were looking at him.
Shooting coach Dickett was slightly taken aback, then he pressed his hands on Matthew's shoulders, looked at him with a serious expression, and asked seriously.
"Who took performance-enhancing drugs?"
"Jiang Chen! Xin athlete Jiang Chen! " Matthew stared at the screen and shouted angrily, "How can a layman who doesn't even know how to hold a gun get a score of 640? Was it because he was rich that he could bribe the entire Olympic Committee to turn a blind eye to his cheating? I'll bet he's on drugs. If it's not a banned drug, then it must be some high-tech gadget! "
When Matthew said this, Benedict also came to a realization.
Right, how could an amateur athlete score 640 points?
The possibility of a stimulant wasn't high, but some kind of aiming chip or something similar definitely couldn't run away.
Thinking of Future Group's amazing technology, the more he thought about it, the more likely it was!
And most importantly, once the charges were established, Jiang Chen would be disqualified by the Olympic Organizing Committee. At that time, Matthew, who was ranked ninth, would have a chance to enter the finals!
At the thought of this, Dickett's eyes shone brightly. He, who was originally completely disappointed with Matthew's ranking, saw new hope.
"I will immediately report to the International Anti-Doping Alliance!" Dickett stared into Matthew's eyes and said righteously, "Athletes who use despicable means to win must be punished!"
…
On the other side of the arena, sitting in the lounge, Jiang Chen took the energy drink from Qian Xia's hand and took a swig of it.
"You are the most talented athlete I have ever seen! With a little training, you have the potential to challenge the world record with your talent. "
Listening to the excited Wang Tao's incessant persuasion, Jiang Chen put down the drink in his hand and waved his hand with a smile.
"Okay, you know I'm just playing around. If I'm lucky, I'll pick up a gold medal and hang it up. If I don't, it doesn't matter. As for the training you mentioned, I have no interest in dedicating my limited life to sports. "
Seeing that Jiang Chen was completely unmoved, Wang Tao shook his head with regret.
In fact, he also knew that the achievements and benefits that a gold medal could bring to this "genius" were quite limited. It was just a pity that his talent would be wasted. If it were another identity or another person, Wang Tao wouldn't let go of this opportunity. Even if he had to forcibly drag this genius into the national team.
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside the lounge.
Wang Tao was slightly taken aback, looked at the door and said.
"Please come in."
After knocking on the door, a middle-aged man in a suit with a hooked nose, followed by three other people, walked into the lounge of Xin's athletes. After his eyes scanned around the lounge, his eyes finally stopped on Jiang Chen, and he walked over.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang Chen, we are observers from the Medical and Scientific Committee of the International Olympic Committee. My name is Griffin, and this is my assistant Hughes. We have received reports from other participants who suspect that you may have taken performance-enhancing drugs or auxiliary drugs with performance-enhancing effects during the competition. In line with the principle of fairness and justice, we will examine you. In order to avoid affecting your final results, we hope you can cooperate with our work. "
When he said this, Griffin did not lower his voice. Everyone in the lounge heard what he said, looked at each other, and began to whisper.
"Performance-Enhancing drugs? President Jiang is not that kind of person … "
"But, if there is no drug, how can you explain his results?"
"Could it be …"
"This is slander!" Wang Tao stood up angrily. Just as he was about to step forward and argue with the man, Jiang Chen reached out and gently pulled him back.
"Did I hear it right?" Looking at Mr. Griffin standing in front of him, Jiang Chen almost couldn't hold back his laughter. "Can performance-enhancing drugs be used in shooting competitions? With all due respect, this is the first time I have heard of it. "
Griffin's expression was a little awkward.
Doping in shooting competitions was not without precedent, but no one had ever won the championship with this thing.
After all, unlike those events that tested physical fitness, shooting competitions required athletes to be highly focused. It was best to reach a state of tranquility. Not to mention performance-enhancing drugs, it was better to take tranquilizers.
Using performance-enhancing drugs to accuse a shooter was really a clumsy method.
Looking at the awkward exchange between Griffin and his assistant, Jiang Chen sighed and said earnestly, "You won't go back on your word, right?
"You won't go back on your words, right? I can teach you."
"You just want Matthew to advance, right?"
"That's easy. Can't you just take him to the shooting range for a one-on-one rematch?"
"Nonsense!" The assistant named Hugh's face was flushed, but he forced himself to put on a righteous expression. It looked funny. "When did I say it was Matthew who reported you? The Olympic Committee will protect the privacy of every whistleblower. If you maliciously guess the identity of the whistleblower again, be careful of facing defamation lawsuits! "
"Is there a need to guess?" Jiang Chen laughed. "Who doesn't know that the Olympic Committee is run by the UA?"
"Mr. Jiang, I also hope you can cooperate with the inspection. If you have no problem, we will give you a fair answer. I don't think you want to be disqualified from the final because you refuse to be inspected, right? "Griffin's eyes flashed.
"Of course." Jiang Chen readily agreed and made a gesture. "Please."
