Chapter 81: The Finals (1)
The next day, Shimizu No. 1 Middle School.
Early in the morning, Principal Zheng Zemin received official news from the National High School Basketball League.
He said that he had prepared 101 round-trip air tickets, and asked Principal Zheng Zemin to select 100 teachers and students from the school, and then take them to the Capital Wukesong Gymnasium to cheer for the players of Qingshui No. 1 Middle School who participated in the finals.
Zheng Zemin, who was sitting in the office, thought for a while and quickly determined the candidates for these 100 people.
First of all, there are 60 classes in the whole school, and there is one person in each class.
Among them, the basketball team has 15 people in a class with 2 people, and the starting 5 people in a class with 7 people, just 100 people.
That's roughly how it is divided, and it doesn't matter who each class sends to Zheng Zemin.
Soon, the homeroom teachers of all classes in the school received the news.
At first, they were a little surprised, but they quickly came to their senses.
After all, there is a precedent for Lin Nan and Nike's endorsement incident last time, and they can accept whatever happens now.
Many class teachers also know that those better schools in the city have this kind of outing every year, and even go abroad to do exchanges with other schools.
It's just that they didn't expect that one day, this kind of thing would happen in a county-level high school like theirs.
I have to say that the basketball players of the school have won glory for their Qingshui No. 1 Middle School.
Just as there are gaps in schools, there are gaps in classes.
The regular version has 1 person in a class, 2 players in a class, and 7 starters in a class.
When the starting players and the class teachers of the team members got the places, they all saw the iron blue look on the face of the head teacher of the experimental class.
For the first time, the school did not put the experimental class first.
But they can't help it, after all, this time it's not about the results.
They can only think about waiting for the announcement of the news in the class, so that the pride of the class don't care, these are just activities, and learning is the most important thing.
However, after hearing the news, the students in the experimental class thought a lot.
Since childhood, they have been other people's children, whether they really love learning or not, but wherever they go, they are proud of their hearts.
Each of them is proud of their grades, and their parents often use their grades as a talking point when they are away.
Slowly, they also accepted this idea of focusing on learning, knowing that their parents are for their own good, and they also know that they can have a good way out by taking a good university.
But at the time of the "Spring Thunder Operation", they suddenly knew that Lin Nan, who had become a popular figure in the school because of basketball, had been excellent to such a point.
Nike has already asked him to endorse him.
Now, Lin Nan has led the Qingshui No. 1 Middle School basketball team to the finals.
People who like basketball all over the country know such a high school as Huaxia Qingshui No. 1 Middle School.
What an honor!
Even when one of the top students was tutoring during the winter vacation, his personal trainer actually asked him if he knew Lin Nan?
When the top student told his classmates about this, everyone laughed, and then fell silent again.
Everyone thought a lot about this, and they began to think about which major was the best in which university, what major they liked, what this major was like, what they wanted to do in the future, and whether they could be admitted to these questions.
Instead of just knowing the questions and scores, as before.
So when the head teacher said the news, most of the people in the experimental class didn't express their desire to go, although they really wanted to see what the national finals were like.
In the end, the head teacher of the experimental class drew lots to decide who would go.
If it was a normal event, they might have pushed it off, but this is the national final after all!
This is their moment of glory in Qingshui No. 1 Middle School!
People in the experimental class should also go and check it out.
The class atmosphere between the basketball players and the starting players is very different.
Although there is no liberal arts and science in the first year of high school, Yu Xianglin, the head teacher of the eighth class of the first year of high school, is still very happy.
Because Lin Nan really gave him a long face.
Therefore, the atmosphere of the eighth class of high school is very relaxed, and Yu Xianglin asked everyone in the classroom to put forward any ideas about the allocation of this place.
Soon, He Simin, a member of the life committee in the same dormitory as Sidong, raised his hand and spoke: "Teacher, I think Sidong must occupy a place, because she is Lin Nan's tablemate, so it will be helpful for Lin Nan's cheering and encouragement on the court." ”
Yu Xianglin, who was on the podium, glanced at Si Dong, who was blushing, and knew these adolescent boys and girls, but he still smiled and said, "You're right, then Si Dong's quota is determined, and everyone has no opinion." ”
The students agreed.
After a long time, he didn't mention any more ideas, so Yu Xianglin decided to draw lots to decide the remaining 6 people.
In some classes, there will be a homeroom teacher who also goes, and in some schools, teachers who like to play basketball go to the class of the starting players to ask for a place.
However, Yu Xianglin is okay with basketball, although he has not been to the capital yet, but he should give all the places in the class this time.
And everyone is only in their first year of high school, and the study task is not so heavy.
Moreover, participating in such a national event is far more important to them at this age than what they learn in a day in the classroom.
After the quota was determined, at two o'clock in the afternoon, Zheng Zemin took 100 teachers and students to get on several buses at the school gate.
Two hours by plane and more than an hour on the road.
It was about six or seven o'clock, just going to the officially arranged hotel for dinner, and then resting.
Many students at Shimizu No. 1 Middle School have never flown on a plane, never been to the capital, or stayed in such a high-end hotel.
Before they even arrived at the finals, they already felt that they had opened their eyes.
And the basketball players of Shimizu No. 1 Middle School didn't know that the official gave them such a big surprise.
On this day, they are all doing shooting training and running training with a little less intensity, maintaining the shooting feel and physical competitive state, and using their strongest selves to meet tomorrow's finals.
At night, before going to bed, Lin Nan touched the red rope bracelet on his left wrist, the corners of his mouth raised, and he fell asleep with a smile.
When we woke up in the morning, everyone had eaten breakfast and digested it, and then continued to start a simpler shooting and running training.
It wasn't until noon that the Shimizu No. 1 Middle School basketball team stopped training and began to rest until they entered the locker room.
Changing into today's red jerseys, the players of Shimizu No. 1 Middle School began to warm up after entering the stadium.
The audience was full of spectators, talking to each other, full of noisy voices, and for a while they didn't even notice that the audience seat closer to them was the students of their Qingshui No. 1 Middle School and their classmates.
It was Lin Nan who first felt that someone was looking at him, this feeling was very peculiar and indescribable.
So Lin Nan looked around, and at a glance, he found Sidong sitting on the right in the phalanx of 100 students in the audience not far away.
And Si Dong was also looking at Lin Nan.
This time, Si Dong's gaze did not evade again, but just looked at it directly, as if he was encouraging and cheering Lin Nan's eyes.
After looking at it for a few seconds, Lin Nan raised the red rope bracelet on his left hand.
When Si Dong saw it, his little face turned red.
The audience who didn't know the truth thought that Lin Nan was listening to the iconic action just like that day.
Lin Nan's die-hard fans immediately shouted, and the scene became extremely lively.
Si Dong, who was sitting in the audience, was startled, thinking that the whole audience had discovered their secrets, and immediately lowered his head, not daring to open his eyes.
After a long while, Si Dong slowly opened her eyes and peeked around, only to know that no one was looking at her anymore.
Everyone is just cheering for Lin Nan.
Sidong thought to himself: Is he already so attractive?
On the field, Lin Nan retracted his thoughts and began to warm up attentively.
Although Si Dong is very happy to be here, this game is the most important at the moment, and this is the first time Si Dong has watched him live, so it is even more important.
As long as he wins, there will be no problem for Lin Nan to confess with the championship ring.
But the premise is that you have to win to have a championship ring.
When Lin Nan and Sidong's eye contact was over, the other team members of Qingshui No. 1 Middle School found that there were classmates in the class.
On the other side, so are the people from Yangcheng Middle School.
Everyone shouted and greeted their classmates.
Yang Yi, who was on the commentary stage, also spoke: "The official invited 100 students from Qingshui No. 1 Middle School and Yangcheng High School to cheer on the spot, it seems that today's finals are bound to be extremely exciting!"
"For the sake of our respective schools, for the sake of our respective regions, let us cheer for the two teams on the field, and present us with a wonderful final!
The moment the words fell, the scene immediately resounded with warm applause and shouts.
After a while, CCTV5's live broadcast photography was in place, the referee was in place, the medical staff on the sidelines were in place, and the players on both sides of the field warmed up.
Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of viewers on the scene and tens of millions of viewers in front of the TV, the finals of the National High School Basketball League officially began!
It's not BO7, it's not BO3, it's a game to win or lose!
The referee's whistle blows, and the starting lineups of both sides come on.
The starting lineup of Shimizu No. 1 Middle School is: Lin Nan, Zhao Zhongzhong, Jiuwu, Screw, Zhu Bo.
The starting lineup of Yangcheng High School is: Wang Shiying, Su Yuxiang, Yang Wendong, Wu Fan, Cai Kun.
Both sides have the same starting line-up as in the semi-finals, and they are also the strongest line-up of their respective teams.
The scramble player sent by Qingshui No. 1 Middle School is Jiuwu, and the scramble player sent by Yangcheng High School is Su Yuxiang.
Both are center forwards for their respective teams, and they are also about the same height.
According to a normal game, the scrum at the beginning of the game is actually not important, and it has little impact on the win or loss of the game.
But today the hometowns of the two teams are here, and they are still their respective classmates, so they all want to have the upper hand at the beginning.
So Jiuwu and Su Yuxiang, who were standing on both sides of the middle line, stared closely at the basketball in the referee's hand, ready to jump at any time.
The referee is still very professional and impartial in throwing the basketball upwards, and the upward trajectory is unbiased, perpendicular to the ground.
The two jumped up at the same time when the basketball began to fall, and it seemed that Jiuwu was a few tenths of a second faster, touched the basketball first, and slapped it towards Lin Nan.
After Lin Nan received the ball, he led the whole team to press forward, while Yangcheng High School quickly retreated.
The first confrontation between Qing Shui and Yangcheng begins immediately!
