Hearing everyone’s discussion, Bell only smiled.
It seemed like he had restrained himself well. At the very least, the content of the discussion was normal.
After dinner, Bell returned to his room under everyone’s admiring gazes.
Lying on the bed, Bell kept thinking about how much popularity he could increase after the competition.
If he could really get a gold medal, it would increase by a whole lot.
!!It would probably be tens of millions of popularity points.
If that happened, wouldn’t he be able to draw a thousand times?
Wouldn’t his beautiful future begin right away?
Bell asked the system.
“Is there a ten-year lucky draw or a hundred-year lucky draw function in the system’s special lucky draw?
For example, a special item that will definitely appear in ten years? ”
Recently, he liked doing this.
However, the system’s answer destroyed Bell’s fantasy.
“The system does not provide such services.”
Bell curled his lips.
“It’s really not humane. If I obtain tens of millions of popularity points tomorrow, won’t I have to draw a thousand times? It will be too tiring.
Is there no solution? ”
“Of course there is a way to resolve it, but don’t worry, host. You won’t obtain tens of millions of popularity points tomorrow.”
Bell was quite satisfied with the system’s answer and felt that there was a solution. However, when he heard the second half, Bell finally realized that something was wrong.
What did it mean by saying he would not obtain tens of millions of popularity points?
“System, what do you mean? Didn’t you say that the higher the popularity, the more popularity points I can obtain? ”
He should not have remembered wrongly. The system had explained this to him. Could it be that there was something he had forgotten?
Just as Bell was thinking carefully, he suddenly remembered something.
His popularity points increased through the number of fans.
In other words, without starting the live broadcast, he could not collect popularity points.
F*ck, tomorrow is the Olympics. No matter how much he was valued, it was impossible for him to obtain this privilege.
Wouldn’t he be snatching food from the Olympics if he did that?
But if that was the case, wouldn’t he be just doing voluntary work tomorrow?
At most, he would get some trophies that were not worth mentioning.
As for the monetary benefits?
He was not short of money.
After hearing this news, the originally happy Bell became disinterested.
If not for the fact that he had already promised Zhang Weiguo in advance and it was such an important occasion, he would have looked for the return flight.
Tonight was supposed to be the opening ceremony of the Olympics, but Bell, who was in a bad mood, could not be bothered to watch. He did not even participate in the appearance of the athletes.
Because of Bell’s results and the fact that he was personally recommended by Zhang Weiguo and Wang Chao, no one dared to say anything.
The next day, Bell was brought to the competition venue by Wang Chao.
The starting event was the 100-meter sprint.
The other contestants looked nervous, but Bell looked indifferent.
Seeing Bell’s expression, Wang Chao thought that it was because of the pressure and kept comforting him.
“Bell, relax. Don’t feel too much pressure. After all, this is your first time participating in a competition. If you can get a medal, it’s good; but even if you don’t get it, no one will blame you.”
Hearing Wang Chao’s comforting words, Bell came to his senses.
Although he had lost tens of millions of popularity points, he had promised the other party. Moreover, this was a matter of fighting for the honor of the country. He should not treat it like this.
Although Wang Chao was looking forward to the gold medal in this competition, especially in the sprinting event, he still said something to calm Bell down.
It could be seen that he really treated him as a disciple.
Thinking of this, Bell perked up.
“Don’t worry, Coach Wang. I’m confident.”
As Bell finished speaking, the announcement sounded in the lounge, notifying the athletes to enter the field.
Bell did not say anything else. He smiled at Wang Chao and walked out of the lounge.
Under the guidance of the staff, Bell quickly arrived at the venue.
Looking at the dense crowd, Bell’s expression was very calm.
It had to be said that there was a huge difference between the Olympics and normal training.
The pressure from this crowd was not something ordinary people could resist.
Those with poor mental fortitude would even perform poorly.
Of course, if it was someone like Bell who had absolute confidence in himself, it would only boost him.
There were four rounds in the 100-meter race. The finals was the fourth round.
Bell was not the only one from China participating in this event. There were two others as well.
However, the three of them were not in the same group.
Moreover, according to Bell’s estimation, it would probably be difficult to see the other two in the finals.
On the track, on Bell’s left and right were the American and Jamaican athletes.
The two of them were black. Their limbs were long, and the muscles in their legs were very obvious and developed.
This was the unique advantage of the black race.
The Jamaican athlete realized that Bell was looking at him, but did not speak. In his opinion, a young child like Bell was not his match at all. He would definitely be eliminated in the first round.
Firstly, the boy’s development had not reached its peak. Secondly, the disadvantage of the yellow people was almost irreparable.
As for the athlete on the other side, although he did not speak, his eyes revealed a trace of disdain.
There was a rule in the Olympic Games that athletes could not mock each other before the competition, or they would be in danger of being withdrawn.
But everyone had a mutual understanding about this.
Bell did not respond to the athlete’s provocation.
Their medals were the lowest in the Olympics every year.
This was mainly because their immigration policy was loose.
Many black athletes were attracted by the green cards.
In track and field, more than 50% of the American athletes came from other countries. For example, they were athletes from various countries, including Jamaica, and they were very powerful.
Just as Bell was thinking, the referee blew the whistle.
All the athletes tensed up, waiting for the moment to arrive.
“Ready!”
“Peng!”
With a gunshot, all the athletes set off like cannonballs.
