Translator: Legge Editor: Legge
The seventh day of the Olympics.
It was finals of the team table tennis match.
11-4.
11-3.
11-7.
Yu Yingyi called out, "Great one, we're now leading 1-0 in sets played!"
Bao Han was here today as the guest again. "As long as we can continue playing with this montum, there shouldn't be any problems!"
Yu Yingyi said, "Our national players are still as dependable as always. Their play is so beautiful."
Zhang Ye said, "There are now many foreigners who have demonized our way of playing table tennis. Oh, look! The caras have cut to a pair of foreigners who seem to be father and son. What do you think they're whispering about?"
Yu Yingyi instinctively replied, "What?"
Zhang Ye said, "That kid must definitely be asking, 'Dad! What kind of sport is table tennis?' To which his father would probably pat him on the head and say, 'Silly kid, table tennis isn't a sport. It's a form of Chinese sorcery."
Yu Yingyi: "…"
Bao Han: "…"
Zhang Ye said, "We always talk about how we can't find 11 players who can play soccer out of 1.3 billion Chinese people. We're really too harsh on them for that. Look at how it is overseas. Out of 6 billion people, they can't even find four people who can play table tennis."
Yu Yingyi held in her laughter. "Pfft!"
Bao Han laughed and said, "That's because our training system is pretty much perfected. All of our current national players were trained from a very young age. Every step they took to get here has been extrely arduous for them. They've been pushed beyond the type of training that normal people are able to handle. That's why they're standing at the top and have the last laugh."
The match was over!
The final score was 3-0 for an easy win!
Yu Yingyi said, "It's over."
"Congratulations to Team China, you've all done well!" Bao Han looked visibly excited.
"It's ti for the press conference and the dal presentation ceremony." Yu Yingyi smiled and said, "Congratulations to Team China for standing up to the pressure to once again stand at the summit. We're really happy for them. They should finally be able to get so ti off to relax for a bit after this competition."
But Zhang Ye said, "They won't be able to."
Yu Yingyi said, "Eh?"
Zhang Ye replied, "There's still an even more difficult competition that's coming up after this."
Bao Han was taken aback. "There isn't anything else. We're already done with the singles and team events."
"Yeah." Yu Yingyi said, "We've made a clean sweep of the dals at the Olympic table tennis events. What 'more difficult competition' are you talking about?"
Zhang Ye looked at them and said, "After they get back, they still have to fight for the national championship to determine who's the number one."
Yu Yingyi: "…"
Bao Han: "…"
National champion!
So did he an that the Olympics were just a warm-up match?
However, Zhang Ye's words made sense as well. This left Yu Yingyi and Bao Han unable to refute him!
…
The eighth day of the Olympics.
At the archery arena.
Yu Yingyi said, "What's going on? South Korea has called for an appeal!"
The guest comntator, a forr female archer, said, "A reshoot?"
Yu Yingyi said, "They've misfired yet another arrow!"
The forr female archer said, "What? They're appealing again?"
Zhang Ye said, "At the archery arena of this year's Olympics, a new event called 'Appeal' has been created. The South Koreans have an absolute chance of becoming the champion!"
Yu Yingyi held back her laughter. "Pfft!"
"Oh God, the Chinese team has won!"
"We won, we're the champions!"
"Unbelievable! The n's archery team has created Olympic history!"
"The team captain, Wu Yun, looks very emotional right now! Oh, he took off his top and undershirt too! He's letting out a roar!"
"The South Korean team is protesting; they've gone to appeal again? Oh, they're complaining about our Chinese team's shirt removal gesture!"
Yu Yingyi and the forr archer were speaking one after the other.
Zhang Ye bluntly said, "What's wrong with removing his shirt to celebrate? Can't he get excited? What's there to fuss over? If you guys had won, you'd have taken off your pants!"
Taking off their pants?
Yu Yingyi was floored!
…
On the ninth day of the Olympics.
It was the n's 10,000m run.
"It has started."
"There's an interesting piece of trivia about this race. We can see that three of the runners on the Canadian team look exactly the sa. That's because they're triplets."
Zhang Ye said, "Then we're in danger."
"Why?"
Zhang Ye said, "If the three of them ran a portion of the race each, we'd definitely have no hope of winning."
Yu Yingyi couldn't think of a good reply.
…
The tenth day of the Olympics.
In the stadium of the swimming finals.
Yu Yingyi said, "The caras are now showing the rest areas. Our Chinese swimr, Sun Qi, is currently warming up."
Zhang Ye said, "Why is he holding a thing that looks like a wheel? Oh, Sun Qi is going to wreak havoc in the seas 1 ."
Wreak havoc in the seas!
Do you think he is Nezha!
Yu Yingyi said, "Professor Zhang, that's just a warmup apparatus."
Zhang Ye said, "The caras are now showing the inside of the stadium. Look at that person sitting there with a staff pass hanging around his neck."
Yu Yingyi asked, "Who is that?"
The other comntator said, "That's a lifeguard."
Zhang Ye said, "He looks so lonely sitting there with his chin resting on his hand. I bet he's thinking about his life. 'What's the reason for my existence?'"
Yu Yingyi held in her laughter. "Pfft!"
The race began.
"Go for it!"
"This is so intense!"
"Co on, Team China!"
"We've won!"
"It's a gold dal! A gold dal!"
"Sun Qi, you did well! Nicely done!"
Yu Yingyi and the other comntator got so excited they looked like they were going to jump up from their seats.
Ten minutes later.
The national anthem played. Soon, the dal presentation ceremony was over.
Sun Qi looked very excited as he bit his gold dal. Suddenly, he got off the podium and jogged toward another zone to hug his coach and teammates. Then, on the large screen display, he apparently took sothing from his teammate. It wasn't clear what it was, but it looked like a small box or sothing similar. After that, he strode forward, taking long strides.
Yu Yingyi was startled. "What is Sun Qi doing?"
The swimming comntator said, "Eh, over there is?"
The next second, everyone understood what was going on!
They saw Sun Qi walking up to a woman and excitedly putting his gold dal around her neck. Then he got on his knees and took out a little box that opened to reveal a diamond ring!
Yu Yingyi smiled and said, "He's proposing!"
She was the won's swim team's Li Xiaoxiao. In the previous Olympics, she was a bronze dalist in a 400-ter swim. Sun Qi and Li Xiaoxiao's relationship was no secret. Everyone knew that they were together, but no one had expected that Sun Qi would propose to his girlfriend after winning the gold dal. He was even doing this in an Olympic stadium and in the focus of many live broadcast caras!
Li Xiaoxiao covered her mouth in surprise and started tearing up!
Yu Yingyi was feeling very happy for them. "This is such a heartwarming scene!"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Li Xiaoxiao has said yes. Sun Qi is putting the ring on for her!"
"That's great, I wish them all the best!" Yu Yingyi said.
Zhang Ye suddenly said, "Their union has resolved yet another universal question for humanity."
Huh?
Yu Yingyi was taken aback. "What universal question?"
Zhang Ye said, "If his mother and fiancée fall into the sea at the sa ti, who would he choose to save first."
Yu Yingyi laughed on the broadcast!
The staff and cara operators in the studio also laughed out loud!
When the TV viewers heard that, they laughed until they doubled over!
…
Over the past few days of the Olympics, everyone had been laughed senseless due to Zhang Ye's comntary. A clearly intense competition that was supposed to stoke up the excitent of the people was constantly taken down another path with those random comnts by Zhang Ye!
"This is unbearable!"
"Hahahaha!"
"Aiyo, I can't take this anymore!"
"I really have to take my hat off to that mouth of Teacher Zhang's!"
"He's such a jokester! I'm so entertained!"
"This comntary is really on a godly level!"
"I really like Teacher Zhang so much!"
"The Olympics are coming to an end and I'm starting to feel reluctant to see Zhang Ye go. Will they invite Zhang Ye to comntate for other sports and competitions in the future? If Zhang Ye is the comntator, I'll goddamn watch it even if it's for a Chinese soccer match!"
"Right, too!"
"How aweso! This fellow is always hogging the lilight wherever he goes!"
"He now has another qualification as a sports comntator on his résumé!"
The viewership ratings for the Olympics live coverage was constantly hitting new highs!
44%!
48%!
51%!
Finally, it even reached 54.3%!
Other than the efforts put in by the Chinese Olympic delegation, Zhang Ye would absolutely be able to claim credit for setting such a mythical and legendary viewership rating. He had played the biggest role in making this happen!
The dostic dia was full of praise!
"The Chinese delegation has amassed 25 gold dals!"
"Zhang Ye's comntary wins the unanimous approval of the people!"
"Zhang Ye has added a different flavor to the Olympic Gas!"
"A national codian is born!"
"An official of the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Gas expresses: For the next Olympics, I hope to see Zhang Ye take the role of a comntator again!"
"The Olympic live coverage sets a historical record in viewership!"
"Zhang Ye's dostic popularity score soars yet again!"
