1936 In Berlin, Hitler announced the start of the Olympic Games to120,000 audience. He wants to prove the superiority of Aryans through the world-famous Olympic Games.

At that time, the best track and field athlete was jesse owens of the United States. But there was a German long jumper, Hugo Luz, and Hitler asked him to defeat jesse owens and jesse owens, a black man, to prove his theory of racial superiority-race determines superiority and inferiority.

Jesse owens participated in four events: 100 m 200m, 4x 100 m relay and long jump. The long jump is his first event.

Hitler personally watched the war. Hugo Luz entered the finals. It's jesse owens's turn to play. As long as his best jump distance is not less than half a meter, he can enter the final. For the first time, he crossed the springboard and fouled; The second time for safety, he jumped from behind the springboard, and he jumped out of a bad result that he had never had before.

When he tried to run again, he hesitated and dared not start the last jump. Hitler got up and left.

At the same time of Hitler's exit, a thin Aryan German athlete with blue eyes approached Owens and introduced himself in blunt English. In fact, he doesn't need to introduce himself. Everyone knows him-Hugo Luz.

Hugo Luz's stuttering English and grin relaxed jesse owens's nervous nerves. Hugo Luz told Owens that the most important thing is to advance to the finals. Sure enough, this is a trick. He took off his towel and put it a few inches behind the springboard so that he wouldn't miss too much when he took off from there. Owens did so, almost breaking the Olympic record. A few days later, Hugo Luz broke the world record in the final, but jesse owens beat him by a narrow margin and won the gold medal.

Hitler in the VIP table was livid at this moment, and the high-spirited audience in the stands suddenly quieted down. On the battlefield, Hugo Luz ran to Owens Station, pulled him to the stands where 654.38+200,000 Germans gathered, raised his hand and shouted: "jesse owens! Jesse owens. Jesse owens! " After an unbearable silence in the stands, a chorus broke out: "jesse owens! Jesse owens. Jesse owens! " Jesse owens raised his other hand to express his thanks.

When the audience quieted down, he raised Hugo Luz's hand to the sky and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Hugo Luz! Hugo Luz! Hugo Luz! " The audience responded with one voice: "Hugo Luz! Hugo Luz! Hugo Luz! " There is no thorny politics, no competition, no gold medal. Players and spectators are immersed in the struggle between gentlemen.

Jesse owens's record of 8.06 million pounds has been maintained for 24 years. He won four gold medals in that Olympic Games and was considered as one of the greatest athletes in the world.

Many years later, jesse owens recalled that it was Hugo Luz who helped him win four gold medals, and made him understand that the pure and caring love of human beings is a truly immortal sportsmanship, and the world record will be broken by the successor rookie one day, and this sportsmanship will never be erased. 1In August, 1936, the 1 1 Olympic Games was held in Berlin. Just a few months ago, Hitler ventured into the Rhineland, a military zone in the Philippines, on March 7 of the same year. Hitler was in high spirits for winning the gambling accident. In order to dilute the world's indignation at his open violation of the Locarno Convention, he decided to use the Olympic Games held in Berlin to create an atmosphere of reconciliation and cover up his fanatical revanchism and racism to divert the world's attention.

Nazi propaganda minister Goebbels started all the propaganda machines, trumpeted the "Olympic spirit" and announced that the door of Berlin was open to everyone. Hitler even made a "shocking" concession: some outstanding German Jewish athletes were allowed to represent Germany in the competition, including ice hockey star Rudy Bauer and fencer Helen Meyer. Even a Jew, Wolfgang Fuerst, was appointed to run the Olympic Village. Anti-Semitic slogans on the streets of Berlin have also been temporarily cancelled.

Hitler won a lot of praise for this skill. Although many liberals in Britain, France and the United States demanded a boycott of the Berlin Olympic Games, 49 countries sent 4096 athletes to participate. There are also thousands of foreign tourists. Hitler was determined to make this Olympic Games an exposition to show Nazi Germany's "desire for peace" and various achievements.

On August 1 day, the Olympic Games opened. Under the escort of a huge motorcade, Hitler drove through a 65,438+00-mile boulevard, and 40,000 Nazi party member in brown shirts stood in front of hundreds of thousands of people on the roadside for inspection. After the motorcade entered the square, Hitler in military uniform swaggered out of the car. He was greeted by two Olympic officials, followed by the king of Bulgaria, the princes and royals of Sweden, Greece and Italy, and Mussolini's sons. At that time, the world's largest orchestra was conducted by Richard Strauss, accompanied by 3,000 chorus members, and played several pieces of music composed by Strauss himself.

With the cheers of 65,438+0,654,38+0,000 spectators, delegations from all over the world marched past the VIP table. Some delegations paid attention to the right wing, the Austrian delegation paid a Nazi salute to Hitler, and the Bulgarian delegation walked with heavy steps. Hitler was pleasing to the eye and complacent on the stage. The American delegation passed by and the team was uneven. Even the national flag was not lowered in front of Hitler, who was democratic. Suddenly, he found that there were many blacks in the American team, and even these people didn't show awe of him. The Fuehrer's facial muscles could not help but twitch. The performance of black American athletes ruined Hitler's happy mood on this day.

However, the outstanding achievements of German athletes made the Fuehrer more prosperous. The next day, he personally went out to congratulate the German athlete Hans Volcker who broke the Olympic shot put record. Then, the German female athlete Tilly Fletcher won the first place in the women's javelin, and the women's discus champion was also won by the Germans. Reports of new victories keep pouring in. Hitler was very happy that his "racial superiority" and "Aryan superiority" were actually proved at the Olympic Games. Every time German athletes get good news, Hitler dances nervously (it is said that Hitler himself is really a sports fan).

The highly anticipated men's 100 meter final has begun. A black athlete was the first to reach the finish line like a sharp arrow. The loudspeaker announced that American athlete jesse owens had broken the 100 meter world record. What shocked Hitler especially was that the black man won three individual gold medals in the 100 m, 200 m and long jump. He was also the first athlete in the American team to win the men's 400 m relay, plus a gold medal. Hitler couldn't control himself like an electric shock. It was not Aryans who won four gold medals, but blacks! When the president of the Olympic Games asked Hitler to meet several champions, he refused contemptuously. The president of the Olympic Games had to remind Hitler that as the host, all gold medal winners should shake hands and congratulate, otherwise none of them would be invited. Hitler sneered at the Olympic President's request and left immediately. At that time, British and American newspapers reported it with prominent headlines: "The myth of Aryan superiority went bankrupt" and "Owens laughed at Hitler" ...

At this Olympic Games, Germany ranked first in the total number of gold medals with 33 gold medals, but a black athlete won four gold medals alone, which became a nightmare in Hitler's heart, so that he said to the partisans with a bitter heart: "Mr. Zu's people in the jungle are primitive, and their competitive conditions are better than civilized whites. They must be excluded from future sports competitions. "

At this Olympic Games, Owens not only created a miracle that shocked the world sports, but more importantly, he strongly countered Hitler's racial discrimination with amazing achievements, which greatly inspired peace-loving people all over the world. However, despite breaking Nazi racial discrimination at the Olympic Games, Owens, who came back with a reputation, could not resist the hidden discriminatory eyes of his country: "When I returned to the United States, apart from the story of Hitler, I still had to get on the bus from the back door and was not allowed to sit in the front row. Hitler refused to shake hands with me, but the White House President refused to shake hands with me. " Owens was not recognized by the US government. Like other black athletes, he didn't escape the fate of unemployment: "When I returned to the United States with four Olympic gold medals of 1936, I received unprecedented praise. People invited me to participate in various activities, but-no one offered me a job. " Owens' family is still penniless. He had to drop out of high school in grade three and then run for a living. He had to race cars and motorcycles with humiliation, and even defeated horse racing in cooperation with the organizers: "The title of Olympic champion became a burden: in order to make a living, I had to race animals. In fact, this race is unfair, and no one can beat the horse race, let alone the 100 yard race. "

After entering the 1950s, Owens' life gradually improved. As the messenger of the Olympic Movement, Owens has been active in the international sports arena for many times and made outstanding contributions to the development of the Olympic Movement. 1950, he was selected as "the greatest track and field athlete since 1900" by American sports reporters. 1955 ambassador-level official in charge of sports in the State Council, USA. In memory of this immortal athlete in the history of modern sports, the International Olympic Committee awarded him 1976 Olympic silver medal. Twenty famous newspapers on five continents also rated him as "the best athlete in the world in this century" (second only to the ball king Bailey). On March 3rd, Kloc-0/980, Owens died of lung cancer. 1980, he was rated as one of the best athletes in the 20th century by European and American newspapers. In order to commemorate his contribution to world sports, American sports institutions set up the "jesse owens Prize" in 1980 to commend and reward outstanding athletes who have made outstanding contributions to contemporary sports. Four years after Owens died, a German street was named after jesse owens. At the opening ceremony of the Los Angeles Olympic Games on 1984, people saw jesse owens's granddaughter Gina Humphrey and Jim Pu Zuo's grandson * * * running into the venue with the torch in their hands. Suddenly the whole room was boiling. Americans pursue Owens' spirit in this way, which shows that the Olympic spirit will last forever. 1999 In June, Owens was named as one of the "25 Best Athletes of the 20th Century" in the activities commemorating the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the International Sports Journalists Association. On February 4th, 65438 and 65438 of the same year, Owens was selected as one of the best male athletes in the 20th century Summer Olympic Games 10 by a selection panel composed of international Olympic sports authorities recommended by Associated Press.
