Chapter 380: Asian Games 2006

The 2006 Doha Asian Games is the 15th Asian Games. It was held in Doha, the capital of Qatar, from December 1 to 15, 2006. The mascot is Oli. 11,000 athletes from 45 countries and regions participated in the competition. 423 The competition for a small item.

Doha won the right to host the 14th Asian Games by defeating competing cities such as Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong and New Delhi in India in Busan, South Korea, where the 14th Asian Games is held on November 12, 2000. Before the official vote, Hong Kong was regarded as the most popular city, and Kuala Lumpur was the second most popular. However, in the second round of voting, the countries of West Asia united and unanimously chose Doha, which made Doha directly win with more than half of 22 votes.

In the Hong Kong Island movie "McDull Story", this bid was also adapted into an animation to join it, using the animated character McDull to express Hong Kong people's disappointment at the failure of Hong Kong's bid.

Most events such as comprehensive sports games or championships generally start in the summer, mainly in August.

Although the start of the entire Asian Games was on December 1, the Chinese track and field team arrived in Doha, Qatar, on December 4. The track and field events of the current Asian Games are from December 7 to December 12. For comprehensive large-scale sports events such as the Asian Games and the Olympic Games, the start time of track and field events will basically be close to the middle and back of the games.

When Yechin arrived in the city of Doha, he suddenly felt like walking from winter to summer.

"This weather feels like it's in the southern hemisphere!" Yang Yao and Gu Kaiqi, who followed Ye Qin out of the hatch, felt the warm air, with a strange look on their faces.

After a few hours of flying, suddenly from winter to summer, this kind of experience is really amazing.

"It's too hot, I'm sweating!"

Behind a few people, Zhuang Wei, who followed out of the cabin together, let out a long sigh, feeling the temperature around him, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

"This is a desert climate. It's winter now, it's not too hot. If it's summer, then you can't stay." Chen Zhongzhou said while pushing a suitcase while talking to Zhuang Wei.

"The local people really don't know how to persevere." Zhuang Wei bared his teeth. For a person of his size and fear of heat, this place is fine in winter, but I am afraid that it is impossible to stay in summer.

In early December, Yanjing had already started heating, and the outdoor temperature could reach around zero. In Doha, the first thing everyone just got out of the cabin was to take off their clothes. The temperature of almost twenty-five degrees makes Doha at this time seem particularly comfortable and pleasant.

For competitive sports, summer is the time when the temperature is high throughout the year, which conforms to the law of human movement. In summer, the physical fitness and state of the body reach the best time, and it is easy to have good results and break records at this time. Wait.

The time for the Doha Asian Games this year is in December. The most important reason is that Doha has a hot desert climate. The summer is very long. From May to September, its average high temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, and in many cases it is close to 45 degrees Celsius. In degrees Celsius, there is almost no precipitation in Doha throughout the summer and the humidity is very low. However, in October of that year and March of the following year, the temperature in Doha was relatively warm and pleasant.

Therefore, although many sports games are held in Doha in winter, they still belong to summer games.

"In this kind of weather, you still have to pay more attention to water and salt."

Chen Zhongzhou looked up at several games and the surrounding sky. The sky was blue as a play, and the air was clean. The temperature was still more comfortable at this time, but the air was very dry.

Regarding the weather in Doha, the entire Chinese delegation had already mentioned it one month and two months before the departure. Some teams may have noticed this aspect as early as six months and one year in order to prepare for the war.

Participating in competitions in different climates always have different feelings. According to the current domestic track and field rules for athletes, this time has already entered the winter training adjustment. This year, breaking this law and coming to the competition, it is still necessary to cheer up and adjust to a good personal state.

After getting off the plane and entering the departure gate, along the way, Ye Qin and other members of the Chinese team originally thought they would see the various costumes of traditional Middle Eastern countries on TV.

As a result, I found out that I really saw it. In fact, it was not much different from the games in other countries. Doha is the capital of Qatar and one of the relatively enlightened Arab countries in Central Asia. A large part of Qatar’s population lives in Doha. And near its metropolis, but even so, the majority of Doha's population is foreigners, and its own nationals account for a minority.

In 2004, Qatar passed the "Law on Foreign Ownership of Real Estate", allowing non-Qatari citizens to purchase land in designated areas of Doha, including the West Bay Lagoon, Qatar Pearl and the new Lusail City, making Doha’s population explode. Coupled with abundant local resources and a large number of people working, the remittances of foreign workers alone amount to tens of billions of dollars each year.

On the afternoon of December 8, 2006, the 15th Asian Games track and field events began on the second day ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ye Qin, Wen Yongyi, Gu Kai and others once again appeared in the main stadium of the Asian Games, Califa In the stadium.

Yesterday was the first day of the track and field competition. There were only two events, the men’s 20-kilometer race walking and the women’s 20-kilometer race walking. The Chinese track and field team won championships in both men’s and women’s 20-kilometer race walking events. The project is off to a good start.

Taking advantage of the morning before the race walking event yesterday, Ye Qin and other athletes participating in track and field events have already been familiar with the venue.

In this year's IAAF Doha Super Grand Prix, Jax Trin was here to tie the men's 100-meter record of Asafaville at the time. Of course, this result is no longer counted. It was just a leap in that game that made this stadium famous all over the world.

The Khalifa International Sports Center, also known as the Qatar International Sports Center, is a multi-functional large-scale comprehensive sports city building. In addition to multi-functional stadiums, it also includes the aspirations established in 2004 to help athletes grow. Trainees, Hamad Aquatic Center, and the landmark Observatory Tower.

The 300-meter-high Observatory Tower, also known as the Doha Torch, is currently the tallest building in Qatar. The entire building is in the shape of a torch. The entire tower is also the focus of attention in this Asian Games.

In order to host the opening and closing ceremonies and competitions of the 3rd West Asia Games held in December 2005, the main stadium and runway, which can accommodate 12,500 spectators, have been extensively rebuilt and expanded. The indoor gymnasium has also been renovated and reinforced and can now accommodate 1,050 spectators.
