Chapter 850 - Disappointment


After the bombing incident, the Presidentof the International Olympic Committee, Mr. Samaranch, went to visit thevictims at the hospital. No matter how much he wanted to arrest the bombingsuspect, there was nothing he can do. As the President of the InternationalOlympic Committee, he does have some powers, but he does not have investigationpowers!


All Mr. Samaranch could do was to visit thevictims and nothing else.


At this time, something unexpected happens.Mr. Samaranch's secretary told him a Chinese businessman wants to donate a sumof money for the victims.


Actually, this was not necessary. Otherthan the two victims who pa.s.sed away, the rest of the injured were covered byinsurance when they bought the tickets. The insurance payouts were enough tocover their hospital bills.


Even if there is a shortfall, the Atlanta Governmentwill make up the difference.


But the Atlanta Government and the USgovernment did not mention anything about compensations to the victims as theyfelt this was an accident.


Now, an outsider, who was not involved, iswilling to donate to the victims, and this made Mr. Samaranch very grateful.


No matter how much the donation was, it isgoodwill and Mr. Samaranch immediately make arrangements to meet this person toexpress his thanks.


……


"Mr. Samaranch, I'm Feng Yu, from China."Feng Yu smiled and extended his hand.


"Thank you, Mr. Feng, for your generosity."Samaranch shook Feng Yu's hand.


Is Feng Yu representing the ChineseGovernment? China was bidding for the 2008 Olympic Games and had lost in itsbid to host the 2000 Olympics Games by one vote.


Samaranch felt Feng Yu was too young andthought he should be the son of some Chinese government officials. In manycountries, there are politician's families, and he had met several young menfrom those families.


"I am just doing my part. I would like todonate 10 million USD to the victims. I hope they will get well soon.


Samaranch was shocked. 10 million USD?!


800,000 to 1 million USD is considered asignificant donation to Samaranch. The victims' medical expenses were coveredby insurance and the US government, and he thought this Chinese young man willonly make a small donation.


But Samaranch never thought this young manwanted to donate 10 million USD!


"Mr. Feng, I represent the InternationalOlympic Committee to thank you." Samaranch shook Feng Yu's hand again. He wasat a loss of words.


"Don't mention it. But this donation willnot be made under my name. It will be under the BML company, and this is thecheck for 10 million USD. Please give me a receipt."


Donating as an individual is different fromgiving under a company. Using a company can create publicity and increase brandawareness. Samaranch doesn't mind and will not reject it.


Samaranch asked his secretary to preparethe receipt and was curious about this BML company. He had never heard of thiscompany before. Is it a Chinese company?


"China must be proud to have a philanthropistlike you." Samaranch thought for a while and said.


He thought since Feng Yu might be the sonof a government official, he should be happy to hear this compliment.


Although Samaranch had misunderstood FengYu's ident.i.ty, Feng Yu was still happy to hear that. "No… I am proud to beChinese."


At this moment, Samaranch could almostconfirm Feng Yu is representing the Chinese government.


During China's next bid to host the games,Samaranch will try to help China get more votes.


Both chatted for a while, and Feng Yu ledthe conversation to this year's games.


"Sigh… I wonder if this incident willaffect the athletes' performances in the upcoming events. Never mind. This isalso not something I should be worried about." Feng Yu purposely said.


Samaranch replied with a troubled look."The athletes will surely be affected. Athletes from some countries hadreturned without competing. During yesterday's events, lots of athletes couldnot concentrate and made mistakes."


"That's so unfortunate. I thought thisyear's games will be the most successful in history."


During the closing ceremony of everyOlympic Games, Samaranch will always say 'This is the best Olympic Games inhistory' during his closing speech.


But this tragic incident and the mess theUS Olympic Games Committee created, had disappointed Samaranch.


"Most successful? I think this is the worstOlympic Games in history!" Samaranch replied angrily.


Feng Yu had achieved what he wanted. He hadsuccessfully made Samaranch angry. But this was not enough. Feng Yu wants toblow up this matter and shame the Organizing Committee!


"I heard the arrested suspect is innocent.The Americans are trying to cover up for their failure in protecting thevisitors at the park. They lacked sportsmans.h.i.+p and is only using this event tomake money. The Olympic Games had become a commercial activity."


Samaranch was about to say something, buthis secretary returns with the donation receipt, and Feng Yu left withoutgiving Samaranch a chance to explain.


Not long after Feng Yu left, some reporterscame to interview Samaranch. They want to hear what the International OlympicCommittee has to say about the bombing incident and the arrested suspect.


Samaranch's anger immediately explodes! Hehad lots to say earlier, but Feng Yu had left. Now, he could no longer holdback!


"My views? You are talking about thatperson who is arrested? Everyone can tell that person is not the suspect! Howcan such a thing happen during the Olympic Games? I am very disappointed withAtlanta's security! This is my view!"


Samaranch's reply was considered mild as hedid not bash the US government and only mentioned Atlanta.


The reporter was shocked to hearSamaranch's reply. Samaranch said the arrested person is not the actual bomber?


"This year's games had broken many records.Are you satisfied with this year's Olympic Games?" The reporter quickly changesthe subject.


"Satisfied? After the bombing incident, youwant to know if I am satisfied? If you are in my position, are you satisfied?If you really want me to answer, then my answer can only be utterlydisappointed! I am not in the mood for interviews now. A philanthropist hadjust donated 10 million USD to the victims of the bombing, and I have lots ofwork to do." Samaranch stood up and left. He does not want to speak a singleword with this reporter!


The reporter was shocked by Samaranch'soutburst. Utterly disappointment?!


This is definitely tomorrow's headlines!!!
