Chapter 1,354 The Opening of the Olympic Games

The Olympic Games first originated in ancient Greece. This article is sponsored by www. lwχｓ520. com first release

At that time, the city-states were constantly at war, and the people longed for peace, so they reached an agreement to hold the Games in Olympia regularly, agreeing that the Games would be held every four years, and stipulating that a "Holy Truce Day" would be implemented in the year of the Games.

It is precisely for this reason that the Olympic year is known as the year of peace.

However, reality and ideals always run counter to each other. From the Georgian war at the 2008 Olympics to the 20-year-old Colombian civil war, ever since the world entered the first year of the new century, the imaginary peace has not come, but has been approaching the edge of war.

The 2020 Olympics was a failed Olympics.

At least in the eyes of most foreign tourists.

What they see here is more quarrels, chaos, and disputes that run counter to the spirit of the Olympics. In order to prevent protesters from throwing rotten eggs at American athletes, the Tokyo police had to deploy an additional 500 police officers to protect the safety of American athletes in Tokyo.

Of course, despite so many accidents, this Olympics is not without its merits. The technological strength displayed at the Tokyo Olympics still makes most foreign tourists feel that it is worth the air fare.

This Olympics may have the highest usage rate of robots in the history of the Olympics. From driverless cars to robot volunteers, as well as two-dimensional characters using AR technology to break through the dimensional wall, this is all reflected.

Just like the giant Doraemon that appears in the main stadium, high technology itself has become one of the selling points of this Olympic Games.

However, interested foreign tourists have discovered that, except for a small number of "short and compact" robots with the Sanleng Group's logo engraved on them, most of the highly anthropomorphic and highly intelligent service robots are engraved with the logo of Future Man Heavy Industries.

There are also driverless cars equipped with magnetic levitation devices, and autonomous drones...

Unknowingly, Futureman Group seems to have contracted the high-tech part of this Olympics.

Many people have some expectations in their hearts. What kind of experience will it be like if one day in the future, the XXth Olympic Games is held in the legendary maritime city-Penglai City. The constant flow of maglev cars, swarms of service drones, the maglev trains that circle the whole city in twenty minutes... I heard that the city has already entered the future in advance.

After this turbulent week, the Olympic Games finally kicked off...

"welcome,

Jiang Chenjun. "

As soon as I got off the car, a smiling face greeted me.

Holding Jiang Chen's hand enthusiastically, Kishida Fumikong made an inviting gesture toward the VIP seats of the main stadium and invited him into the main stadium.

When entering through the special passage, Jiang Chen looked in the direction of the main entrance of the venue through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the elevator. Looking at the dark crowd, I couldn't help but secretly gasp, thinking that if I squeezed in through the main entrance, I'd be afraid that the Olympics would be over if I squeezed in.

When entering the venue, Jiang Chen saw an acquaintance, although the acquaintance didn't like him very much.

Staring at Jiang Chen like an eagle, a hint of gloom gradually appeared in Kerry's eyes.

From Jiang Chen's faint smile, he felt a hint of anger. But he was a diplomat after all, so he did not express his unhappiness on his face. He just raised his aquiline nose slightly, and after a while he looked away from Jiang Chen.

Seeing that Kerry no longer looked at him, Jiang Chen smiled faintly and looked away from him. But at this moment, he saw another familiar figure in the American delegation. It's just that he has never met this person in person, but has seen it many times on TV.

"I didn't expect that the President of the United States actually came here in person." After walking and sitting next to Jiang Chen, Zhang Yaping tilted his head slightly and glanced in the direction of Hillary.

"Is there any problem?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"No," Zhang Yaping smiled and shook his head, "I just think it's a little strange. The CIA and the US military stationed in Japan just broke out such a scandal. Even if Hillary intends to use the Olympic Games to visit Japan to repair the broken US-Japan relations, in this In terms of timing, I’m afraid the effect won’t be great, right?”

"Because they are not coming for the Japanese at all." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"What do you mean..." When he said this, a hint of surprise appeared on Zhang Yaping's face.

"That's right," Jiang Chen pointed at himself, then at Zhang Yaping who was looking at him, and said with a smile, "Mostly it's for you and me."

The head of state of the host country and the president of the Olympic Committee entered the venue one after another. The raising of the national flag and the playing of the national anthem ended. The opening ceremony of the entire Olympic Games also kicked off. What followed was a one to two hour theatrical performance.

Jiang Chen took out a bottle of vintage red wine and a goblet from nowhere, poured himself a glass, and leaned on his chair to enjoy the performance on the stage.

The first program was naturally the Olympic theme song, sung by a Japanese group that Jiang Chen could not recognize.

Because he didn't understand, Jiang Chen didn't pay attention to what they sang. He quickly finished singing and the second program started.

A series of light particles appeared in the center of the stage, and the lights were turned on one after another. Accompanied by the fresh and refined electronic sound, a pair of emerald green twin ponytails jumped out from the illusory dimensional door, and the fluttering black skirt swayed briskly. radian.

The singing performance by the most popular virtual idol is also one of the highlights of the entire opening ceremony. Not only Hatsune Miku, but also a series of well-known popular characters such as Uncle Mario and Tinkerbell are said to follow.

By the way, the AR device on the main stadium stage is also produced by Futureman Heavy Industries.

After the two-hour artistic performance, athletes from all over the world entered the venue.

Greek athletes entered the venue first, followed by athletes from participating countries, and finally athletes from the host country entered the venue.

Although he signed up for a project, Jiang Chen did not appear in the phalanx of New Zealand athletes. He just sat in the VIP seat and waved to the athletes in the audience.

All athletes have entered the venue, hymns were played in the venue, and the Olympic flag was hoisted.

Standing in the center of the venue, the organizers and the President of the Olympic Committee read out their speeches. The athletes, referees, and coaches stood under the Olympic flag and raised their right fists and solemnly swore an oath.

"On behalf of all the athletes, I promise that for the glory of sports and the honor of our team, we will participate in this Games in a true sportsmanship and respect and abide by all the rules..."

"On behalf of all the referees and staff, I promise that at this Olympics, we will respect and abide by all Olympic rules in a true sportsmanship and perform our duties fairly and selflessly..."

Under the gaze of everyone, the sacred fire was lit.

The final song and dance performance and the fireworks that adorned the night sky brought the opening ceremony to an end.

Behind the darkness, rows of man-made meteor showers streaked across the dark night sky.

No matter what happens after tonight, at least for this moment, most people are praying for the same word...

That is peace.
