Hong Kong Entertainment: I pick up attributes on the set

Hearing this, Tom Bradley said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, your business ability is the world's attention, and you are an investment genius in the hearts of countless people.

I am really happy to meet Mr. Shen today."

didn't say anything, come up and talk about it first.

Shen Hao knew that ~ what this guy asked for was not small.

So he waved his hand and said, "Mayor Tom, let's open the skylight and say something, if there is anything I can help, - I will help"

"Haha, Mr. Shen is really a happy person, I am a little embarrassed, it must be difficult for us, but for Mr. Shen, this - thing should be very simple"

As a politician, Tom Bradley is still very thick-skinned.

Maybe it's because of the dark face, and I can't see the slightest embarrassment at all.

Tom Bradley's procrastination made Shen Hao a little impatient, he was not interested in wasting time here with this.

If it's a big beauty, then it's okay to say, what is there to talk about as a.

So, he restrained his smile and said, "Mayor Tom, if you need anything, just say it, you can help me, if it goes on like this, it will be a waste of time."

Your time and mine are precious. "

Seeing that Shen Hao was a little displeased, Tom Bradley was no longer in the ink, and directly said his appeal this time.

"Mr. Shen, that's the case, do you know this year's Olympics?"

Olympic games?

Nonsense, of course, knows.

So he nodded and said, "Of course I know, what's wrong Mayor Tom, you don't want me to participate in the Olympics," Shen Hao teased;

Tom Bradley hurriedly shook his head and said, "How is that possible, Los Angeles hosted the Olympics this time."

So here's the problem."

"What's the problem?"

"Due to the increasing cost of the Olympic Games in recent years and the interference of political factors, there are fewer and fewer cities bidding for the Olympic Games.

There were originally two cities bidding for this Olympic Games, in addition to Los Angeles, and Tehran in Ilang, but for all the above reasons, Tehran withdrew halfway.

Thus, at the 1978 IOC Annual Meeting in Athens, Los Angeles won the right to host the Games without an opponent.

This is something we didn't expect. "

Shen Hao smiled: "That's not very good, I remember that in 1932, Los Angeles hosted the 10th Olympic Games, and 52 years later, the Olympic flame was lit here again."

In this way, the sand shaker will not become the third city to hold two Summer Olympics after Bali and London.

Mayor Tom, you should be happy. "

Hearing this, Tom Bradley smiled wryly.

In desperation, explain his grievances.

Originally, the Olympic Charter stipulated that the host city of the Olympic Games and its organizing committee must guarantee to the IOC that it "assumes full financial responsibility for the organization of the Olympic Games".

The Olympics were filed for in '76, but California lawmakers changed the law.

However, in November 1978, the state of California, where Los Angeles is located, passed a law prohibiting the use of public funds to host the Olympics.

As a result, we at the City of Los Angeles will not be able to host the Olympics without financial assistance.

The Los Angeles Olympics face two fates: either Los Angeles cancels the Games, or it is left to the private sector to organize.

The arrow had to be sent on the string, and there was no turning back.

If the Olympics don't happen, Los Angeles will be the laughing stock of the world.

As a result, the city of Los Angeles negotiated with the IOC, and the IOC was forced to make major concessions and recognize the Los Angeles Olympics as an exception for the first time in the hands of private individuals and businesses. "

Shen Hao was stunned for a moment, and immediately happy, you applied for the Olympics in 76 years.

As a result, the governor directly gave you a salary from the bottom of the kettle and introduced a law that would not give you money, so what would you do with the Olympics.

"Isn't it great that private events are allowed.

After saying that, holding the Olympics can enhance the city's reputation and development, why would California prevent you from holding the Olympics with a sand breaker, and even introduce a law to interfere," Shen Hao wondered;

Tom Bradley shrugged helplessly, and his black face seemed to be even darker.

Sighed and said: "Mr. Shen, you should know that the cost of the Olympic Games is huge, and it has been even more so in recent years.

For example, in 1972, Munich spent $1 billion;

In 1976, Montreal spent more than $2 billion;

And in 1980, Moscow spent more than $9 billion. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

With such a huge amount, how could the state of California agree to hold it with our sand breaker.

In order to host the Olympic Games, after the Athens Conference, the city of sand shakers began a comprehensive planning work, first of all, a preparatory committee was formed.

The first challenge we face in the city of Los Angeles is funding.

In 1979, we invited 45-year-old Peter Uberroth, a financial professional, to chair the organizing committee.

This unknown man in the world of sports, with great foresight, showed outstanding talent in the preparation and organization of this event, especially in the financial management.

The Los Angeles Olympics were the first privately hosted games since the inception of the 1896 Olympic Games, and there was no government subsidy and no tax burden

After Ueberroth became chairman, in order to save money.

entering into funding agreements with conglomerates;

the sale of television rights and match tickets (ABC bought the rights for $225 million);

Reduce expenditures, make full use of existing facilities, and try not to build stadiums;

The Olympic Village will not be built, and two university dormitories in California will be rented for athletes and officials to stay, and volunteers will be recruited to volunteer for the conference.

According to the budget, the total budget for this Olympic Games is 450 million US dollars.

Originally, the funds were raised.

But the United States Broadcasting Corporation suddenly repented and divested. []

In addition, the law of the United States also prohibits the issuance of lottery tickets, and all funds must be raised by themselves.

Now that the Olympics are about to start, we don't have enough money, and we have a lot of headaches right now."

Shen Hao understood that he was looking for him to invest in the Olympics.

However, there was one thing that Shen Hao was puzzled about, so he asked: "Why did the United States Broadcasting Company suddenly withdraw its investment." "

Tom Bradley sighed: "It's mainly because of political factors.

As you know, the two major camps in the world today, the Soviet Union and our country, are in a cold war.

Two months before the preparation and organization of our sand falling machine was basically ready and the conference was about to be held, 16 countries and regions such as the Soviet Union and the Democratic State announced that they would not participate in the Olympic Games under various pretexts.

Although Samaranch and other parties lobbied and held talks with the leaders of the government, they were unable to change the decision of the Soviet Union and other countries.

The Soviet Union did not participate in the Olympics on security grounds. "

Shen Hao sneered, he deserved it.

You don't want to think about why others are boycotting you.

Shen Hao knows that the actual reason is nothing more than revenge for the boycott of the Moscow Olympics in 1980.

In the 80s, the United States and 62 other countries boycotted the Moscow Olympics in 1980 to protest the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

The Soviet Olympic Committee explained that the reason for this was because it foresaw that the anti-Soviet anti-Soviet activities indulged in the city of Los Angeles would take place.

The Soviet Olympic Committee said: "In the United States there are people who are inciting chauvinistic sentiments and anti-Soviet hysteria".

Other countries in the socialist camp, including Guba and Vietnam, are expected to join the boycott.

Needless to say, the absence of the Soviet Union, the Democratic States and Bulgaria has had an impact on some of the events of this year's Games, such as athletics, swimming, weightlifting and other competitions.

The impact of the complex international political struggle has put the Olympic Movement to a severe test.
