Chapter 325: A variety of situations
When the news of the record-breaking was reported back to China, many comrades in China were quite dissatisfied. "We broke the record, so why is there no footage of the competition? Can someone make a long-distance call to ask if this is discrimination against us?"
Lu Youhe stood up and said, "I'll fight."
The call first came to Luo Jiu, and it was Lu Qingyun who answered it.
"Qingyun, you said such a big thing, it is a historic moment for our country, but we didn't even see it. The people of the whole country stayed in front of the TV and watched the foreign devils riding horses for a long time. Is this reasonable? We broke the world record, why don't you show our footage?"
Lu Qingyun sighed helplessly, “Dad, I know you are anxious, but don’t be anxious yet.
The equipment is limited, and equestrian competition is a traditional event for the people of Ouzhou, so it is understandable that they cut more shots.
The key point is that this record-breaking match is a preliminary match, and no one would have thought that a record could be broken in the preliminary match.
Anyway, the finals will be held this afternoon, and there will definitely be footage by then, so everyone won’t wait in vain.”
Lu Youhe: "Okay, okay, let's do this for now. I won't talk about it anymore to save some phone bills. I'll ask you if I have any questions."
The other party hung up the phone quickly. Lu Qingyun was speechless into the microphone, "Still looking for me? I can't knock the director out and do it myself. Don't give me any problems. You really are my father!"
Lu Qingyun put down the phone, asked the logistics lady to help watch it, and reminded: "If my dad calls again, tell him I'm not here, that I had a fight with the director."
The first day was really chaotic. No one had ever experienced anything like this before and everyone was busy like a top.
The accompanying filming team followed the athletes everywhere and accidentally lost them.
The foreigners were not very experienced at that time. Seeing a bunch of Chinese photographers running with cameras on their backs, they thought there was some good material, so they caught up with them and asked excitedly: "Who are you chasing? Which event or which famous athlete?"
Chinese photographer: "Well, I'm shooting a documentary about my own country, not with you guys..."
The foreigner who ran 500 meters in the hot summer was petrified on the spot.
It took Lu Qingyun less than five minutes to walk from the hotel to the main stadium. He saw many Chinese faces in the audience, all waiting to watch the shooting finals.
All the compatriots from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce were present. Lu Fengchun and Chen Liguo sat together, talking and laughing.
Many athletes who did not have competitions today also came to the scene to cheer for Luo Jiu and the others.
Lu Qingyun was about to go to the audience to take a seat when she suddenly found that there were only Luo Jiu, Zhong Jialing, and Cheng Yaoyao in the waiting area. She quickly took her staff ID and ran over to ask, "Leader, what's going on? Where's Marshal Feng?"
Luo Jiu and the other two sat on the ground holding their guns with helpless looks on their faces, and pointed at the TV above their heads at the same time.
Lu Qingyun looked up and saw a video showing Feng Qi sitting alone, wet, in a double rowing boat.
Lu Qingyun panicked when he saw it. "She fell into the water? Where's Commander Fu?"
What's going on? There's a shortage of people everywhere. Why is it so messy?
Cheng Yaoyao counted on her fingers and went over today's situation with her from the beginning.
Football and basketball games started at the same time in the morning. Fubao played in the women's football group match, and Feng Qi played in the women's basketball group match.
After the competition, the two rushed to the rowing side and completed the preliminaries of the rowing at a world record speed.
Then Fu Bao rushed over to compete in heavy sword, and Feng Qi came over to compete in shooting.
At noon, everyone had a quick lunch while studying the schedule.
The women's rugby team had the earliest match time and had bad luck in the group stage, as they faced the world powerhouse, the United States, right at the start.
The sport of rugby is called American football. As you can imagine, rugby holds a high status in the minds of Americans.
This sport is very strong and violent. Americans have been pampered for many years, and there are black athletes who are terribly big. Our athletes have only been well fed for more than a year, so there is definitely a gap in physical strength.
Fubao said: "I will play rugby first. If I can't play well, I will come down after half a game. I will try to score more points in the early stage. Then I will go to rowing."
Feng Qi said, "Then don't be late. I'll wait for you at the rowing venue. After the competition, I'll go to the shooting finals."
The rowing semi-finals and shooting finals were not so close to each other, so Feng Qi was confident that he could make it.
However, as fate would have it, they were placed in the back group in the semi-finals.
At first, Feng Qi was quite happy when he was assigned to the back group because Fubao had not arrived yet and he could delay it for a while.
As a result, the group of athletes in front, who were from an unknown country, lost consciousness and deviated seriously from the course. The two boats collided with each other, and all four people fell into the river.
Feng Qi looked at it and said, "Oh my god, how long will this take!" He looked again and realized something was wrong. Why did this person start to choke on water? Why didn't he practice swimming when he was rowing?
The rescue team was far away when they realized the situation was still going on and slowly turned the boat around. Feng Qi saw that everyone would be dead by the time they got there, so he quickly jumped into the water and pulled the four landlubbers out of the water.
The four of them were terrified at the time. Two of them were from unknown countries and could not speak Yingyu. They kept clasping their hands together in front of Feng Qi and mumbling something, probably to express their gratitude.
The other two were Dutch athletes. They cried and laughed, and hugged Feng Qi several times.
The reporters at the scene were so happy. They knew they had made the right decision by waiting there. There was real material, so they went up and started an interview.
Feng Qi was wailing in his heart: How long will this take?
She couldn't help but keep looking at her watch, wondering why the referee hadn't announced the start of the next group. When she turned around, the referee had already come ashore. He said that he wanted to thank the Chinese athletes for their heroic and selfless act of saving lives on behalf of the organizing committee in front of audiences around the world.
Time passed quickly, and Feng Qi was thinking, since Fubao didn't come, why not cancel the rowing competition? If I go now, I should be able to catch the shooting finals.
But the referee kept pulling her to be interviewed, and finally said to her mysteriously: "I know you have used up a lot of energy saving people just now. What I can do for you is to buy some rest time for you. I wish you good results later!"
Feng Qi held the referee's hand with mixed feelings. The referee had good intentions, but he did not realize a more serious problem. Since the partner for the doubles event was not here, it would not count if one person rowed first.
It was time for the preparation stage. Feng Qi sat on the racing boat anxiously. While others were in pairs, she was alone, and her face was filled with despair.
The referee then realized that there was a shortage of people.
"Team China, where is the other athlete?"
Feng Qi tried to remain calm: "She'll be here soon."
Referee: "Being late will be treated as a withdrawal from the competition. In this case, I can only..."
"Here! I'm here!" A loud shout came from the shore. Feng Qi turned around and saw Fubao wearing a big football helmet and pedaling his bicycle wildly.
When he reached the shore, Fubao threw the car away, jumped into the river without saying a word, and swam towards this side frantically.
The referee looked shocked: "..."
Feng Qi: "I told you she'll be here soon. Did I lie to you?"
