Chapter 564: A New Visitor

Zhang Guan's aggressive question made Richards' face livid, and he said: "It is up to the IAAF to decide whether and how to punish. We naturally have an internal meeting to discuss the IAAF."

"Mr. Richards, you just answered my second question, so what about my first question? Two different test results, what is the IAAF's opinion on this? I think there is always a need to give Let me give you a reasonable explanation!" Zhang Guan continued to ask.

"A reasonable explanation? The test results are there, what else can be explained." Richards said.

"Then why are the results of the two tests different?" Zhang Guan continued to ask.

"How would I know, I didn't test it!" Richards' voice paused, and he suddenly felt that he had said something wrong.

Sure enough, Professor Campbell immediately stood up and said: "My laboratory is absolutely in line with the operating procedures and operating specifications in terms of specimen testing, and this test was also carried out under the witness of you, and the test results are different. It has nothing to do with our laboratory, it can only be because of the differences in the tested specimens!"

"Yes, it's the differences in the tested samples." Richards finally thought of a reason, and he continued: "Zhang Guan, even if there are different test results, it does not mean that you have not used doping, because The specimens tested were variable."

Richards said that he bowed to Bowerman of the International Tennis Federation, and then said: "Mr. Bowerman, I am not saying that there is a problem with the specimens provided by the International Tennis Federation, I just said that there are differences in the tested specimens. I would like to ask a question with great liberty, when was the sampling time for the bottle specimen provided by the International Tennis Federation?"

Bowerman thought for a while and said, "After the Olympic tennis finals, the time is August 17."

"Thank you very much for the information you provided." Richards said with a smug expression on his face, "The specimen provided by the International Tennis Federation was collected on August 17, and the one we monitored just now Among the specimens, the earliest collection time was the long jump final on August 18, followed by the 1500-meter final on August 19, the 200-meter final on August 20, the triple jump final and the 400-meter final on August 21, The 800-meter final on August 22 and the relay final on August 23, that is to say, the specimens we tested just now were collected one day after the tennis final. So we do not rule out the possibility, You used doping after collecting the specimens in the tennis final on August 17th, so the specimens provided by the ITF could not detect doping, but we did detect doping in the specimens provided by the IAAF! These are the two The reason for the different test results!"

Richards looked at Professor Campbell as he spoke, and asked, "Professor Campbell, from a scientific point of view, is my hypothesis impossible?"

Professor Campbell nodded: "From a scientific point of view, according to your hypothesis, there are indeed two different test results!"

A victor's smile once again appeared on Richards' face, and he began to admire his own intelligence in his heart. He was able to take advantage of the time difference to once again take advantage of the doping incident.

"Fortunately, I am adapting to the situation. Don't think that you can find an ITF and do another specimen test to prove your innocence. I will win in the end!" Richards looked at Zhang Guan proudly. , he wanted to hear Zhang Guan's next excuse.

Zhang Guan thought for two seconds, then said: "I remember this second test, because the IAAF found a problem in the previous temporary random test, and the specimens that time were taken after the men's 100-meter final. , if I remember correctly, the 100m final was on August 16, and that was before the tennis final."

"We do not rule out the possibility of errors in that random test. That random test was not carried out here, so it cannot be used as a reference for this test. As far as today's test results are concerned, we have enough evidence to judge that you are using Doping." Richards said rascally.

Richards' remarks made many people at the scene frown, including representatives of the IAAF and the International Anti-Doping Organization. Logically speaking, Richards' remarks are untenable Yes, but in terms of rules, Richards did not violate the rules, which can be said to be a loophole in the rules.

Zhang Guan's face was still calm, but in his heart he felt my anger because of Richards' scoundrel. He calmed down, and said loudly: "According to Mr. Richards' theory, the sample from the bottle after the 100-meter race tested by the IAAF before is invalid?"

"It's not invalid, it's just that it won't be used as a basis for judgment. It's not a test result from the same laboratory. According to the rules, we have reasons not to accept it." Richards continued rascally.

"Are you going to accept the test results of the specimen from the ITF bottle just now?" Zhang Guan continued to ask.

"We are not going to accept it either, because the sampling time of that bottle specimen was before other specimens. It cannot be used as evidence to judge that you have not used doping." Richards said.

"I understand, the specimens obtained earlier are invalid, so are the specimens obtained later also invalid?" Zhang Guan wanted to pretend to be angry and asked.

"Of course not." Richards continued: "Or not entirely, of course there needs to be a time limit. If the time interval is too long, it will be invalid."

"The interval is too long? How much is too long? 12 hours? 24 hours? Or 48 hours?" Zhang Guan continued to ask.

"This is a professional medical question, and I can't answer it. I saw that you have brought a professional, and I suggest you consult him." Richards said.

"Ahem..." Professor Campbell, the host, coughed dryly, and said, "The complete metabolism of erythropoietin is not so fast, and the specific metabolic time varies from person to person, but it is still stimulating erythropoietin within 24 hours. Within the action time of the element..."

"According to what you mean, after using erythropoietin, the samples collected within 24 hours must be detected?" Zhang Guan asked.

"As far as our laboratory is concerned, it can be done." Professor Campbell said with a little pride.

"Okay, let's continue!" Zhang Guan said.

"Continue? What continue?" Professor Campbell was puzzled.

"Continue to the testing of the next specimen!" Zhang Guan said.

"The next specimen? Where is it?" Professor Campbell said here, suddenly realizing something, he looked towards the door.

At this time, there was a commotion at the door, and some people squeezed into the crowd of reporters, trying to walk through the crowd.

"Give way, thank you, please make way!" A voice sounded.

This time the reporters learned their lesson. They realized that there was going to be big news, so they took the initiative to get out of the way.

There were still two white men in suits and leather shoes. The leading one seemed to be nearly sixty years old. He was also followed by another person, holding a silver suitcase in his hand. He was still so high-end and elegant.

Richards groaned inwardly. When he saw the silver box, he already had a premonition of what would happen next.

"That's Mr. Vettel, Mr. Vettel of FIBA!" someone said.
