After three rounds of competition, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil won the right to host the 20 16 Olympic Games, while Chicago, the United States, which had a high voice before, was eliminated in the first round. Why is this happening? Is it because Brazil did too well or because the United States screwed up? This question is not difficult to answer. Brazil won not only because of their excellent performance, but also because of the poor performance of the United States, which means that the United States indirectly helped Brazil. Although US President Barack Obama personally supported Chicago, his appearance did not affect the judgment of IOC members and observers. They almost agree that Brazil is the most suitable country to host the 20 16 Olympic Games. "Brazil did well in the presentation and debate, and they deserved to win," said Kevin Gospa, former vice president of the International Olympic Committee. Brazil's 45-minute presentation was powerful and passionate, and experienced Olympic Committee observers thought that Brazil's presentation was the most wonderful one they had ever seen. In addition, the video clips carefully produced by the staff of Brazil's Olympic bid fully present the face of Brazil. The beautiful and pleasant landscapes, beaches, mountains and optimistic and hospitable people are full of irresistible charm. The wonderful speech by Brazilian President Luiz Iná cio Lula da Silva was the key reason why Brazil won the right to host the Olympic Games. He suggested that the IOC break the tradition and open up a new world to bring the Olympic Games to South Africa, instead of always choosing North America, Europe and the Far East as the venues for the Olympic Games. Lula also pointed out that the United States has hosted eight Olympic Games, while South America has never hosted one. He even borrowed Obama's campaign slogan, "Yes, we can!" Lula said: "For the first time, the IOC has the opportunity to host the Olympic Games in a tropical country. For the first time, it has the opportunity to feel the enthusiasm of our people, our rich culture and our happiness and passion. " Another powerful argument put forward by Lula is that Brazil is the only country among the top ten economic powers in the world that has not hosted the Olympic Games. It is really surprising that Chicago lost the battle for the right to host the Olympic Games. They only got 18 votes in the first round of voting. A Chicago Olympic bid official said in an interview with Reuters that failure is not the worst thing. Worst of all, they have to endure a series of accusations after their failure. Many people, including IOC members, will stand up and accuse them of doing something wrong. Chicago's statement is unremarkable, and they seem to pin all their hopes on Obama. However, Richard carion, a member of the IOC Executive Committee, said that Obama's attendance at the vote did not help the United States, and some people made a mountain out of a molehill. "We attach too much importance to the visits of state leaders," Carrion said. Gosper believes that strategic voting is the main reason why Chicago was eliminated in the first round. He said that Rio de Janeiro successfully passed the first round because someone inside the International Olympic Committee spoke for them: former FIFA President Joao Havelange supported Rio de Janeiro, while former IOC President juan antonio samaranch supported Madrid. "Tokyo tried to win the first round through strategic voting, but it didn't succeed, because Beijing has just hosted the Olympic Games, and it is impossible for the International Olympic Committee to let Asian countries host the Olympic Games again in such a short time," Gosper said. "The strategic voting made us see an unfortunate result, which led to the premature elimination of Chicago. This is an insult to America. We shouldn't treat the American president who attended the IOC meeting in person like this, "Gospa said. European sports-spoon
