Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian have all been flag bearers of the Olympic delegation.
This is indeed a tradition.
After all, men's basketball players are tall enough to be flag bearers.
However, the reason why Wang Fei was questioned this time is mainly because Wang Fei's height is not enough.
More than one meter seven tall, holding the national flag at the front, a little shabby.
Therefore, it was proposed that Zhu Ting of the Chinese women's volleyball team should be the flag bearer. In recent years, the women's volleyball team has achieved very good results under the guidance of Lang Ping.
Zhu Ting is a rare strong offensive player. She can even get more than 20 points in a game.
Her popularity in China is also quite high.
General manager.
Han Zhongwen, director general of Chinese sports, scratched his head.
Who should be the flag bearer is really a question.
"Lao Meng, what do you think of continuing to let Yi Jianlian be our flag bearer?" Han Zhongwen said to Meng Qingdong, head of the Chinese Olympic sports delegation.
Meng Qingdong sighed and said: "I think Wang Fei is more suitable. He is the most iconic and world influential sports superstar in China. It is also an incentive for him to let him be the flag bearer. After all, this child has made great contributions to our entry into the Olympic Games in football and basketball at the same time! Moreover, he may win the gold medals in sprint and high jump in track and field! Anyway Well, he is the most successful person in our Chinese sports and a facade. We can't let him be the flag bearer because he is not tall enough. It doesn't make sense. "
Han Zhongwen frowned: "you're right, but he's only 1.73 meters tall. It's really not very nice to walk in front of our delegation. His height is a little too short. If it's not his height, I think he's the only choice."
"Director Han, you can't deny an excellent player because of his height? Although Wang Fei is not tall, he is the most successful Chinese basketball player! He won two NBA championships at a young age and helped the National Men's basketball team win the men's Basketball World Cup. If you don't choose him, aren't you afraid of his discomfort?" Meng Qingdong said with a smile.
"That's not awkward, isn't it? Wang Fei has a high Eq. I also admit that he is very good, but the flag bearer is not selected according to his grades. Although our country's men's basketball team was good in Asia, it's just as good in the world, but the flag bearer has always been held by men's basketball players, so he hasn't let sports representatives such as table tennis team or badminton team As an athlete of the team. So, I think it's better to talk to Wang Fei and I'm sure he will understand. After all, the entrance ceremony lasts for several hours, and carrying the flag is not an easy thing. If Wang Fei is not allowed to carry the flag, let him have a rest, so as to conserve energy and get into shape as soon as possible! "Han Zhongwen smiled.
Meng Qingdong sighed and said, "well, let me talk to Wang Fei. Then let Yi Jianlian continue to be the flag bearer according to the director's meaning?"
"Well, let Yi Jianlian continue to come! He is a veteran. This year may be Yi Jianlian's last Olympic Games, so we should leave him some good memories!" Han Zhongwen said.
"Director Han, what you said is very reasonable." Meng Qingdong nodded.
Meng Qingdong went to talk to Wang Fei.
At this time, Wang Fei was still training with the Chinese Olympic football team.
Meng Qingdong naturally went to the National Olympic training base.
At the base, Meng Qingdong listened to the staff. Wang Fei was still running in with his teammates on the pitch.
Meng Qingdong is very pleased with this.
This child is really diligent!
Meng Qingdong went directly to the training ground.
When he came to the training ground, Hao Wei, head coach of the National Olympic Games, saw Meng Qingdong coming. He hurried to say hello.
"Director Meng, you've been busy all day. Why are you free to come here to inspect our work today?" Hao Wei asked with a smile.
"I'll come and see Wang Fei," Meng Qingdong said with a smile, watching Wang Fei practice with his teammates on the field.
"Then I'll call him over," Hao Wei said.
"No, don't disturb him first. We want to talk," Meng Qingdong said.
"Oh, that's good. Shall we go to my office? I'll make you tea." Hao Wei said.
"No, just say it here. I mainly want to know about Wang Fei. How about Wang Fei?" Meng Qingdong asked.
Hao Wei rubbed his hands and said, "Wang Fei is really good. He has a good character, is modest and polite, can get along with his teammates, and never puts on the airs of a superstar. We like him very much from the coach to the team members. Everyone also admires him very much. His skills are really comprehensive, and he doesn't hide secrets. When his teammates ask him for advice, he is always patient."
Meng Qingdong smiled, nodded and said, "this child is really likable. Is his training okay?"
"Good! Very good! Although I haven't been running in with my teammates for a long time, I have no problem with cooperation and can quickly integrate into the team. He has strong point grabbing ability, first-class dribbling skills and shooting. It's needless to say that he is good at both set pieces and sports goals. I'm really more and more confident now. As long as Wang Fei can always be in the team, I think we can I really have a chance to win the Olympic gold medal! It would be great if I could win the Olympic gold medal. "Hao Wei rubbed his hands and said excitedly.
Meng Qingdong nodded, sighed and said, "if only we could have two talents like Wang Fei in sports. This one is still too few!"
"Yes! Director Meng, did you come here today just to know about Wang Fei?" Hao Wei asked.
"Yes! On the one hand, I want to know about Wang Fei. On the other hand, I want to explain the situation to Wang Fei," Meng Qingdong said.
Meng Qingdong is the deputy director of the general sports administration. At the same time, he is also the head of the sports delegation of the Olympic Games.
"Is it about letting him be the Olympic flag bearer?" Hao Wei blurted out.
"Ha ha! You guessed it. It's really such a thing. However, the organization doesn't want him to be the flag bearer, for fear of tiring him." Meng Qingdong said.
"Don't let him be the flag bearer? Is it just because he's worried about being tired?" Hao Wei was a little unhappy.
Because before Meng Qingdong came, the news that Wang Fei was going to be the flag bearer of the Olympic delegation had already spread. Moreover, Hao Wei also felt that it was most appropriate to let Wang Fei be the flag bearer.
If one of the Chinese delegations now has world-class influence, it is Wang Fei.
"Yes!"
Meng Qingdong glanced at Hao Wei. He felt a little empty in his heart.
"The opening ceremony took too long, several hours, and the next day, there were basketball and football games. Wang Fei had to have a good rest," Meng Qingdong explained.
