Chapter 508: Youth Competition

"Do you really want to participate?" asked Liu Yan again.

"Yes, Uncle Liu, just let me participate, I won't let you down!"

"Okay, you can participate, I only have two conditions!"

"What are the two conditions? Uncle Liu, you say!" Zhang Shuangsheng thought, as long as he could participate in this competition, he could agree to any conditions.

"First, you must not be injured, you must give me good health. ”

"Okay, I promise!" Frost let out a sigh of relief, he had expected it to be a difficult condition.

"Second, you have to bring me a championship back!" Liu Yan believes that among the young players participating in the competition this time, there must be very few cultivators, because even cultivators at this age will not have too much true qi, so Shuang Sheng must be outstanding in it, if he doesn't get the first place, his apprentice Liu Yan will be in vain.

When Zhang Shuangsheng heard this, he smiled and replied, "Uncle Liu, I will definitely strive to win the championship!"

"Okay, then you prepare, let Guan Ning take you to sign up, you give the phone to Guan Ning. ”

"Yes!" Zhang Shuangsheng agreed loudly, full of joy.

Guan Ning took the phone and asked, "Pavilion Master Liu, how is it?"

"Guan Ning, you take Shuangsheng to sign up, this is a rare opportunity to compete, it's good for him to see the world. ”

"Okay, I see. ”

After hanging up the phone, Guan Ning rushed to the Beijing Sports Bureau with Shuangsheng to register the child.

Liu Yan felt a little guilty in his heart, it stands to reason that Zhang Dazhu and his wife entrusted their children to him, and he should have personally registered Shuangsheng, but he is really inseparable from the crew now.

Just when he was holding his mobile phone in a daze, the assistant director ran over again and called Liu Yan to make up for a scene, Liu Yan handed over the mobile phone to the staff and followed the assistant director to film.

When he returned to his residence in the evening, Liu Yan found that Zhang Shuangsheng had not come back yet, and he should have gone to deliver takeaways.

It wasn't until more than twelve o'clock that Zhang Shuangsheng came back, Liu Yan asked him to sit down, and then asked with concern, "How is the registration?"

"It's going well, the staff heard that I was recommended by the Huaguan Martial Arts Pavilion, so they immediately agreed, asked me to fill out a form, and handed it over. Zhang Shuangsheng recounted the scene at that time.

"Are there a lot of people signing up?"

"It's okay, I saw three children, about the same age as me, who were led by their parents to sign up. When he said this, Zhang Shuangsheng's expression was a little gloomy, presumably thinking of his parents.

Liu Yan touched his head, didn't speak, gave him some relief, and then changed the topic and said: "Since you have signed up, then take it seriously, from today onwards, don't go to deliver takeaways, train for an extra hour every day, come back and rest early, and meet the competition in the best condition!"

Zhang Shuangsheng was stunned for a moment and said, "This is not good, it will delay Uncle Bai's business." ”

Liu Yan shook his head and said: "It's okay, Bai Shao's side, I'll tell you, he will arrange it, you have to remember, you can't do things half-heartedly, if you don't sign up, you can concentrate on delivering takeaways, but since you have registered, you have to go all out, understand?"

Zhang Shuangsheng nodded vigorously and ran to take a bath, Liu Yan not only taught him kung fu, but also taught him some principles of life, which is also Liu Yan's life experience summed up after coming out of the village, he hopes to teach Shuangsheng in one go, to avoid him from taking detours in the future.

Three days later, Zhang Shuangsheng received a notice to go to the Beijing City Gymnasium for a rehearsal.

Because this is a national competition, hosted by CCTV's TV station, the scale is very large, so there are some procedural things that need to be familiarized.

The self-control of teenagers is still worse than that of adults, so they have to rehearse in advance, of course, the official competition will not be rehearsed, this depends on the contestants' own ability.

This rehearsal was personally taken by Liu Yan to Zhang Shuangsheng, because Liu Yan's scenes were basically filmed, and now Director Zhang is making up some scenes for other roles, so Liu Yan is not so busy.

Liu Yan drove the car and took Zhang Shuangsheng to the city gymnasium, and after parking the car, the two met Gao Shenglong at the door, and there was also a boy standing next to him, who looked two or three years younger than Zhang Shuangsheng.

"Elder Gao, you are here too, this child is ......" Liu Yan and Gao Shenglong shook hands warmly, greeted each other, and Zhang Shuangsheng also bowed politely to greet Elder Gao.

"Hehe, Liu Yan, this is my grandson, named Lin Haohao. Haohao, call Uncle Liu, this is your little brother, Brother Shuangsheng. Gao Shenglong gently pushed the little boy next to him forward.

Lin Haohao was a little shy, he pursed his lips, looked at Liu Yan and Zhang Shuangsheng, his body shook slightly, and he didn't speak.

Liu Yan took the initiative to touch his head, smiled and said, "Haohao, it's time to participate in the competition, don't be nervous, you have Brother Shuangsheng with you." ”

Zhang Shuangsheng was very sensible, like a little adult, he took Lin Haohao's hand and said, "Brother Haohao, let's work together!"

Lin Haohao nodded and replied in a low voice: "Okay, let's work together, uncle is good, brother is good." ”

Gao Shenglong smiled and explained: "This child has been timid since he was a child, and he doesn't dare to speak when he sees the living, which is not bad for you." I also thought that through this competition, he could become a little bolder. ”

Liu Yan nodded and replied: "It's okay, he is still young, and through this competition, he will definitely be more cheerful." ”

While chatting, the two pulled the child into the gymnasium.

Nowadays, people attach great importance to children, and there are many families who come today, and some children are really hugged by the front and back, parents, grandparents, and grandparents have followed.

Liu Yan and Gao Shenglong looked at them and sighed in their hearts, how could today's children be so squeamish, how could they participate in the competition? It is estimated that they have learned a few tricks to embroider their legs, thinking that they are very powerful, so they dare to come to the competition.

There were more and more people in the hall, almost all the children had arrived, and a middle-aged man who looked like a host walked onto the stage, holding a microphone and said: "Parents, young contestants, hello, you are welcome to take the time to come here for rehearsal!"

The audience applauded, although it was a rehearsal, but the organizing committee and parents attached great importance to it, and everyone listened carefully to the host's speech.

"Don't worry, I won't delay you a lot of time, about half an hour is enough, I will talk about the main links of the martial arts conference. The first link: the contestants sit on the chairs on both sides and meet with everyone, and then the leaders walk up to the stage, and the contestants stand up, form a row, and shake hands with the leaders one by one.

In the second session, the leader spoke, the contestants returned to their chairs and took their seats, and then the parent representatives and contestant representatives spoke.

The third link, the referee read out the rules of the game, the referee read out the grouping of the game, there is an important part of today's rehearsal, that is, the draw, in order to ensure the fairness of the game, just, our opponents in the preliminaries are decided by drawing. We had a total of 64 contestants in this competition, divided into four groups of 16 people each.

Sixteen people in each group will go against each other to select the eight players who will win, and then they will face off in pairs to select the top four. In this way, sixteen players were selected from the four groups and entered the finals.

The sixteen players are divided into two large groups and play a round robin, with the top two selected in each group, and finally these four players will have a cross-elimination tournament, and finally the final!

The final part is the awards, and our deputy mayor will present the awards to the champions and runners-up. It's basically these links, do you understand?"

The children don't know much about sports competitions, and when they hear the rules of the game, they are a little dizzy, but the parents understand very well, they are very satisfied with the lottery of this competition, and think that it is very fair to do so, and avoid black-box operations.

However, there are also some parents who whisper, roughly saying that even if they do, they will be tired.

Liu Yan and Gao Shenglong didn't have any opinions, they thought, anyway, everyone's rules are the same, as long as they follow the rules, then there will be no problem.

Then the young contestants walked onto the stage, and sixty-four children stood in a large circle around the stage.

The leader did not come today, and the rehearsal was replaced by two gymnasium staff, and the children followed the process step by step.

In the end, it was time for the lottery, Zhang Shuangsheng and Lin Haohao walked to the stage to draw lots.

Zhang Shuangsheng drew the second group, Lin Haohao drew the fourth group, and the two separated.

After dividing the group, he began to draw opponents again, and the opponent Zhang Shuangsheng drew was a child named Xiong Xiaochuan, who was the same age as Zhang Shuangsheng, but a few months older than him.

Lin Haohao's opponent's name is An Youhe, and it is said that he is a hybrid of Huaxia and Hanguo, and he has some strength.

Once the draw was complete, the rehearsal was over and the host announced that parents could leave the gymnasium with their children.

When everyone walked out one after another, Liu Yan noticed that the opponent of Shuang Sheng's draw just now, Xiong Xiaochuan and his parents, presumably his father, had been secretly looking at Liu Yan.

Liu Yan generously led Zhang Shuangsheng over, stretched out his hand with a smile, and said, "Hello, I am Zhang Shuangsheng's parent. ”

"Are you...... Mr. Liu Yan? I look very similar. Xiong Xiaochuan's father also stretched out his hand and shook Liu Yan, and asked a little excitedly.

"It's me, hello. Liu Yan replied, and at the same time touched Xiong Xiaochuan's head, expressing friendship.

Zhang Shuangsheng has been looking at Xiong Xiaochuan, they are the opponents in the first round, and the mood is very complicated at this time, a little excited, and a little nervous, and they don't speak to each other.

"Then this is your ......" The parents just heard that Zhang Shuangsheng's surname was Zhang, and it should not be Liu Yan's relative.

"Oh, he's the child of my good friend, and my friend is out of town, so I'll take him. I think Xiaochuan is a child with good physical fitness, and he is a martial arts material. Liu Yan gently patted Xiaochuan on the shoulder and praised him.

The parents were very sensible, and hurriedly said to Xiong Xiaochuan: "Call Uncle Liu, this is a master, a big star!"

Xiong Xiaochuan looked at Liu Yan carefully, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Uncle Liu, you are the idol of my whole family, I admire you so much, last time you defeated the master of the Japanese Kingdom, I jumped up with excitement!"

Unexpectedly, Liu Yan also met a little fan brother, he said with a smile: "That's all in the past, the future is yours, come on!"
