Chapter 3: Defeat Sebastian once and for all
With 14 votes in favor of impeachment, 14 votes against impeachment, and 4 abstentions, only one person left unvoted, and the final vote will determine whether Sebastian's impeachment will succeed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The third-party representative, a well-known track and field athlete, was originally thought to be a person who made up the numbers, so that the votes of the even number became the odd number. After all, the last vote is basically the big picture.
But now, the person who made up the numbers has become the one who decides the final outcome, which no one expected before. Even Usain Bolt himself thought that the overall situation must have been determined when he came out in the end, and he just cast an inconsequential vote, but he didn't expect that he would be the one who decided the final result.
Seeing the number of votes on the big screen behind him, Bolt woke up like a dream.
"How so!" Bolt was stunned on the spot, he hesitated, and did not dare to come forward to vote. At this moment, Bolt felt that he was more nervous than he was at the starting line of the 100-meter dash at the first Olympic Games.
If Bolt votes in favor, the votes for impeachment will be a majority, and Sebastian will be impeached. If he votes against it, it will be another result, and Sebastian can stay in office. And if Bolt abstains, the vote does not exceed half of the votes, and Sebastian can still sit in the IAAF presidency.
"How do I vote? Approve? Oppose? Or abstention? Bolt groggily walked up to the polling area.
……
"The last one to vote was Usain Bolt!" Sebastian frowned.
A few days ago, Sebastian once made a phone call to Bolt through his assistant and wooed Bolt. And Bolt did not agree, but gave an ambiguous response. According to Sebastian's analysis, this ambiguous response will be more likely to be neutral. Sebastian never looked for Bolt again.
In fact, Sebastian is not very concerned about Bolt's vote, and his plan is that the first 32 votes can seal the victory, and Bolt's last vote will not matter the overall situation. So Sebastian focused his energies on the delegates and the councillors.
However, what Sebastian didn't expect was that an athlete he didn't value much would become the one who decided the final victory.
"A smart athlete who doesn't have to do his personal interests should not get involved in the IAAF's internal fighting, and it doesn't do him any good, so Bolt is more likely to abstain.
"In terms of probability, there are three options for for, against and abstaining, as long as you don't vote for it, it's good for me. The probability of yes is only one in three, which is a minority! ”
Thinking of this, Sebastian plucked up his courage and seemed more and more confident.
……
"I didn't expect it to be Usain Bolt who would decide the final result. When I sent someone to Usain Bolt, he gave me an ambiguous answer, most likely abstaining! If Bolt abstains, then this impeachment has failed! Zhang Guan once said that he would find a way. Did he really convince Bolt? ”
Diack was a little weak-hearted, and he even wanted to take out his phone now and ask Zhang Guan if he had done anything about Bolt.
Before that, Diack didn't care about Bolt's vote, and his calculations, like Sebastian's, believed that the first 32 votes would decide the winner, and it didn't matter who Bolt's last vote went to.
But when it came time to vote, the two sides in front of him were tied, and Bolt's vote became the most important vote!
……
Bolt stood in the voting area, looking at the buttons on the voting screen, looking a little overwhelmed.
Sebastian's people had looked for him, and Diack's people had looked for him, but what Bolt had in mind at this time was Zhang Guan's phone call.
"I owe Zhang Guan a favor, and now it's time to pay it back!" Bolt reached out and pressed directly on the yes button.
"Yes! Usain Bolt voted yes! ”
There was an exclamation at the scene.
"Fifteen votes in favour of impeachment, 14 votes against impeachment, and 4 abstentions. Impeachment passed! ”
At this second, Sebastian sat down in his chair with a dejected face.
More than a month ago, although Sebastian lost his position as president of the London Olympic Organizing Committee, he is still the president of the IAAF and is still a figure in the world sports world.
And today, he has been impeached, he is no longer the president of the IAAF, and the other remaining titles are only symbolic. Without the big hat of IAAF president, the other symbolic titles are useless.
Sebastian knew that perhaps his political career would be over......
……
The impeachment of IAAF President Sebastian.
This news immediately made headlines in the sports section of the world's major media.
Seeing this news, Zhang Guan was also embarrassed in his heart. His feud with Sebastian has been going on for ten years, and now, the battle between the two has finally come to an end. Zhang Guan finally got Sebastian out of power.
The IAAF has always been full of talented people, and once he falls from the chairmanship, there is basically no possibility of a comeback, and in the UK, Sebastian is still crowned a British sinner, and it is absolutely unlikely that he will make a difference in the political arena. Now Sebastian, the door to politics has been completely blocked.
"Sebastian should have made a lot of money over the years, even if he completely quits politics, with the savings of these years, he returns to the UK to be a rich man and spend the second half of his life in a dull way, which is a very leisurely thing!" Zhang Guan sighed with relief, and finally a victor's smile appeared on his face.
"You look happy, what's so happy?" Hermione, who was wearing only a large blouse, took two glasses of juice and stepped closer.
Zhang Guan hugged Hermione in his arms, and then kissed her on the forehead, but did not answer her directly, but said: "How about going back to China with me during the Spring Festival this year?" Let's celebrate a Chinese New Year together! ”
"Back to China?" Hermione looked a little panicked, but there was a hint of joy in her eyes.
"Okay, after Christmas, I won't take on new workloads, I'll go to China with you!" A seductive flush appeared on Hermione's face.
……
The 2013 Lunar New Year is in February, and 2013 is also a small year for competitions, with no major events. So Zhang Guan originally planned to stay at home for a few more days, but was disrupted by a sudden event.
On February 18, Jerry Bussilver, a landmark figure for the Lakers and a wealthy American, died of cancer in Los Angeles.
Old Bass has been retired for many years, especially in the last few years, he has been plagued by illness and has been staying in the hospital, so Zhang Guan and Old Bass have never met. But Zhang Guan holds 4.5% of the Lakers' shares, and is also one of the minority shareholders of the Lakers, and from the perspective of social etiquette, he should attend the memorial service for Old Buss.
After Zhang Guan got the news, he flew to Los Angeles as soon as possible.
The memorial service for the elder Bass was held on the 21st American time, and members of the Bass family, former friends of the elder Bass, current players of the Lakers and former celebrities all rushed to the scene.
Zhang Guan attended the memorial service of a foreign celebrity for the first time, and originally Zhang Guan thought that this should be a very serious scene, but when he arrived at the scene, he found that this was not the case at all.
The first few speakers were better, and when O'Neill came to the stage to speak, he simply told a joke that caused the audience to laugh. Kobe Bryant, who came up later, was not far behind, and from time to time he showed a signature smile on his face.
The one who caught Zhang Guan's attention the most was "Zen Master" Phil Jackson, who didn't look like he was here for a memorial service at all, with a constant smile on his face, and often hugged some familiar players, making it look like he was coming to a ball.
"Phil Jackson didn't mean to make a scene, did he? Could it be that foreigners are also popular for 'joy and mourning'? Zhang Guan suddenly felt that American culture was really "broad and profound", at least it was difficult for him, a Chinese, to understand this kind of thing.
Compared with Phil Jackson's activity, D'Antoni, who is not far away, has a much more serious expression.
"The current Lakers are a hot potato, D'Antoni should have a headache!" Zhang Guan sighed in his heart: "The turbulent era of the Lakers is coming!" It won't be long before they expect a savior! ”
