Sun Yang is the only athlete in the history of Chinese sports to achieve the realm of solitary defeat in mainstream international sports, and his dominance in swimming is unparalleled. His athletic achievements are comparable to those of athletes such as Yao Ming, Liu Xiang, and Li Na.
At the same time, we also have to say that Sun Yang, a swimming genius, has a very outstanding personality, but the controversy and divine operation are also constant.
On the afternoon of November 3, 2013, Sun Yang was driving a Porsche Cayenne at the intersection of Hangzhou Stadium Road when he was scratched by a bus, and the bus was fully responsible for changing lanes. The bus driver had nothing to say, and after calling the unit, he told Sun Yang: "The company has a designated car repair shop, you drive the car there for repair, and the company is responsible for the cost." ”
Sun Yang originally agreed, but the flight attendant girlfriend who was traveling with Sun Yang and sat in the co-pilot disagreed, saying: "Who knows what kind of car repair shop yours is, whether it is a regular material or not, we have to go to the 4S shop to repair it." ”
When Sun Yang heard it, it made sense, but the bus company did not agree to this plan, because there was no clear law that required it to be repaired in a 4S shop. When the dispute continued, the flight attendant's girlfriend said to Sun Yang: "Call the police, it's not selfish." ”
So Sun Yang took out his mobile phone and called the police to request processing. After the traffic police arrived at the scene, they first asked both parties to issue driver's licenses according to the process. Sun Yang sighed in his heart, it was broken, why did he forget that he didn't have a driver's license. In this way, Sun Yang was cocooned and tied himself, and he liked to carry a pair of silver bracelets, and was sentenced to 7 days of administrative detention and a fine of 2,000 yuan for driving without a license.
In addition, because of this incident, Sun Yang was suspended from "suspension, suspension of training, and suspension of commercial and social activities", becoming the first Olympic champion in history to be severely punished.
And the beautiful woman who God assisted Sun Yang never appeared by Sun Yang's side again, she was Sun Yang's flight attendant girlfriend at the time. The good-looking skins are the same, and the interesting souls are one in a thousand. Marriage is that personality and IQ need to complement each other, Sun Yang learned from the pain, and adopted an attitude of "don't get close to the living" to his girlfriend who lacks IQ, after all, this is to affect future generations.
This incident is just the tip of the iceberg of Sun Yang's various divine operations, and the follow-up "Chinese swimming brother" was forced to "retreat" for four years because of divine operations and disappeared in the domestic and international arenas, what is going on?
Between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. on September 4, 2018, three people from the Shuimu Tsinghua Community in Xiaoheshan, Hangzhou, claiming to be staff of the International Doping Control Agency, were visiting to conduct an out-of-competition examination of Sun Yang – to collect his blood and urine.
The purpose of the out-of-competition inspection is that the stimulant taken by the athlete will be broken down and absorbed after a certain period of time, and it cannot be detected at this time, but the stimulating effect of the drug on the athlete's body still exists.
After the three arrived at the agreed time, they found that Sun Yang was not at home when he went out, and according to the past practice, the staff had the right to go home at this time, and directly judged that he had missed the test.
Only this time, the inspectors chose to wait outside the door of the villa. Near eleven o'clock, Sun Yang and his mother Yang Ming arrived late, and after negotiation, the two parties went to a clubhouse near the villa to collect blood and urine samples.
Sun Yang greeted the three of them, saying that they had waited for a long time, and then cooperated to carry out the inspection. But in the process, Sun Yang found that one of the other party was taking pictures and recording videos with his mobile phone, and there was no such process during the testing process.
"You won't meet a liar." The action of taking pictures made Sun Yang suspicious, because someone specially recorded videos of celebrities and put them on the Internet for profit.
Sun Yang asked the other party to show his documents, and the three took out their Chinese resident ID cards. Sun Yang said: "I also have an ID card, which is not enough to prove that you are a doping control agency. The three said that they had forgotten to bring their work permits, and that such lame prevarication made Sun Yang scoff and refused to take the next step of urine sampling, Sun Yang said: "I need an inspector with a certificate of conformity to come and test me, and I can wait for a long time." ”
The trio rejected Sun Yang's proposal and insisted on collecting the urine sample immediately: "You must provide the urine sample within the specified time, otherwise we have the right to suspect that you have taken contraband, wait for the drug to decompose, and avoid the drug test." Sun Yang, who was worried about getting into trouble, was asked by the staff to have his blood drawn at 11:35 a.m., and the blood sample was placed in a safe container.
Out of concern about the inspectors' behavior and certification, Sun Yang immediately contacted Ba Zhen, the doctor of the Chinese national swimming team, who did not dare to slack off and called Han Zhaoqi, deputy director of the Zhejiang Provincial Anti-Doping Center, and almost at the same time, Sun Yang's mother called Cheng Hao, the leader of the Chinese swimming team.
Han Zhaoqi and Cheng Hao both replied that only qualified inspectors could inspect Sun Yang, so the three staff members who claimed to be international doping control agencies did not have authorization documents, and the blood samples collected were invalid. After being confirmed, Sun Yang no longer hesitated, was very tough, and refused to cooperate with the three to continue sampling, because there had been cases where the blood samples of athletes had been manipulated and had nowhere to defend, and they were finally forced to retire due to ban.
In the face of Sun Yang's toughness, the three staff members could only give up and stop the urine test, but they decided to take the blood sample back. Sun Yang disagreed and asked for a blood sample. The safety container in which the blood samples were kept by the three testers was the property of the testing agency and could not be left behind, and must be brought back.
This remark made Sun Yang even more suspicious of the other party's ill intentions. During the dispute, Sun Yang was angry and ordered the security guard: "Just do it, I will be responsible if something happens." "When three staff members refused to provide the keys, the security guard used a hammer to break through the safety container containing the blood samples, destroying the blood samples that had already been collected.
At this time, Sun Yang's team doctor, Ba Zhen, arrived, and Ba Zhen handled the matter very well, and immediately handwrote a summary of the incident that happened that night, which was signed by Sun Yang, Ba Zhen, and three staff members.
In this way, Sun Yang's blood sample was not sent to the relevant certified laboratory, thus exceeding the mandatory time limit stipulated in the relevant regulations for doping testing, and the effect was equivalent to refusing to test, which was also the basis for Sun Yang's later biggest mistake and conviction. The presumption of a crime in our common sense is that there is no suspicion of guilt, but a doping test is not a crime, it is a regulation, and the judgment of such a violation is equivalent to a violation if it refuses.
As a result, the International Doping Testing Agency sued Sun Yang before the Doping Tribunal in Lausanne, Switzerland. After the investigation and confirmation of the hearing, only one of the three staff members sent by the international doping testing agency this time had legal authorization documents, and the other two were not staff members of the doping testing agency, they were friends of the staff member, and because they wanted to see the celebrity style, they pretended to be staff members to join in the fun.
One of the assistants in charge of the urine test admitted that he was only a construction worker and had never been trained in doping tests, because the chief test officer was his high school classmate, so he came with him, and he admitted to taking pictures and videos of Sun Yang: "Sun Yang is a celebrity, I want to take a photo and show it." ”
The arbitral tribunal accordingly acquitted Sun Yang. Sun Yang's first confrontation with the doping testing authority, Sun Yang won completely. It seems that everything is developing in Sun Yang's favor. However, the hearing did not have the right of final adjudication, so the international doping control authority appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
This time, the doping testing authorities were well prepared to submit new evidence and move out of the rules and regulations that "after the athlete has been properly notified, the staff does not need to show any additional authorization documents to the athlete when they go to the sample collection", and "the sampling is done by hiring outsourced personnel in the athlete's country, so not all personnel will have the corresponding qualifications".
On this basis, the International Doping Control Authority argued that "regardless of whether the three persons have the relevant qualifications or not, this is within the scope of the legal authorization of the Doping Control Agency".
At the same time, the International Doping Control Agency believes that if Sun Yang has objections to this process, there is no problem, he can simply and formally express his dissatisfaction with the violations he has seen on the doping test form, and use this formal protest to question the admissibility and credibility of the doping sample, but cannot but let the other party take it back.
Sun Yang was indeed unable to come up with a "convincing reason" for the refusal to be prosecuted by the international doping testing authority, and the overreaction that Sun Yang asked the security guards to make at that time was indeed unreasonable and unnecessary.
Regarding the charge of destroying blood samples, Sun Yang said at the trial, "I did not destroy the blood samples, but separated them, and the blood samples are still preserved." But in the mobile phone recording submitted by Sun Yang, the sound of arguments and broken glass can be clearly heard. The International Doping Control Agency immediately asked: "Can the hammer become the standard tool for blood separation?" Lawyer Sun Yangfang was speechless.
In the end, the arbitration panel found that Sun Yang's refusal to test was established based on his behavior of destroying the blood samples after being warned by the staff, which was equivalent to destroying the opportunity to test the samples in the future. Since Sun Yang had a history of taking banned drugs in June 2014, it was decided to impose a heavy penalty of 8 years of suspension, and the judgment will take effect immediately and will be lifted on February 28, 2028.
When the verdict came out, Sun Yang's mother Yang Ming cried in front of the broadcast camera: "Sun Yang is really not easy. It's been a long way...... He hadn't eaten pork in more than a decade. ”
Sun Yang was not convinced, and the Chinese Swimming Association issued a statement saying that it "supports Sun Yang to continue to protect his legitimate rights and interests by legal means", but the problem is that the facts are clear and there is no way to defend it. In desperation, Sun Yang's coach Dennis Cottrell announced that he had terminated his contract with the Chinese Swimming Association, expressing pessimism about Sun Yang's continued appeal.
The mountains and rivers are exhausted, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village. Sun's team found that the chairman of the arbitration panel, Frank Fratini, was extremely anti-China, and that the tweets on his Twitter account carried contempt for China. Discrimination abroad was a major event, and the Swiss Federal Supreme Court ruled that Sun Yang's appeal was valid. The ban was reduced to 4 years and 3 months.
Horton jumped out to express regret the shortened suspension. "Horton and Sun Yang swim in the same range, and the competition allows the two to collide from inside the arena and outside the arena.
In May 2014, Sun Yang was found to have taken the banned drug trimetazidine in a urine test. This has nothing to do with Houghton, but after beating Sun Yang in the men's 400m freestyle at the Rio 2016 Olympics, he said: "I don't know if this is a real sports competition, especially since some athletes have a history of drug banning." ”
Sun Yang is very innocent, did I recruit you to provoke you? We don't know each other! In the subsequent 1500-meter freestyle competition, Horton provoked again: "I will look down on Sun Yang from the podium!" After this incident, the Chinese Swimming Association issued a statement "demanding an apology from Houghton", and the Australian Olympic Committee issued a statement in support of Houghton......
Sun Yang's feud with Horton escalated to the sports associations of the two countries.
At the 2019 World Swimming Championships in Gwangju, South Korea, Sun Yang won gold medals in the 200m and 400m freestyle, while silver medalist Horton and bronze medalist Guy of Great Britain refused to take a photo with champion Sun Yang on the podium.
At the end of the same year, Sun Yang mocked the two foreign swimmers, Australian Horton and Briton Guy, while participating in a Chinese mainland interview program: "If you swim faster, you can drink my delicious footwash water." ”
In fact, Horton should really learn from the Japanese players. Sun Yang and his teammates won the gold medal in the men's 4×100m freestyle relay at the Asian Games. After the game, Sun Yang said: "It's cool to win against Japan, to be honest, the Japanese national anthem is hard to hear. The next day, an AFP reporter from the "chicken thief" asked the two Japanese players at a press conference: "What do you think of Sun Yang's unpleasant statement about the Japanese national anthem?" ”
The Japanese player Ryosuke Irie, who was asked, replied cleverly: "I didn't hear it directly. Whatever he says, it doesn't affect him being a good athlete. ”
