62. The Finals Coming Early (2)
"The brave wins!"
Liu Xinying saw Zeng Ping, Shi Xuan and the others change their faces after learning that their opponent was the No. 1 Middle School, and immediately stood up and cheered everyone up: "Think about it, in the high school entrance examination a year ago or two years ago, you were proud of the crowd and killed all sides, how could you ever put the No. 1 Middle School in your eyes? How long has it been, have you become as timid as a mouse and afraid of the enemy like a tiger? Could it be that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, but is afraid of wolves when it has horns?"
Shi Xuan shook his head: "President, it's not that we are timid, but that our opponents are too strong, so we can't be too cautious! Could it be that the previous brothers and sisters are not smart enough and are not as good as us?"
It's no wonder that Shi Xuan is so negative, it is really because since the No. 1 Middle School won the championship of the all-house selection competition for the first time seven or eight years ago, it has regarded the difficulty of Chinese studies as a straw to change its fate, and has done it to the extreme.
Just like the status of the Osai Society in Huai'an Mansion (and may still be excessive), the Chinese Culture Transmission Society is also a behemoth with a school background in the No. 1 Middle School. The selection of members begins in the first year of high school, and it needs to go through cumbersome procedures such as preliminary examination, re-examination, and interview.
Of course, entering the barrage is just the beginning. In the next year or two, whether it is weekends, holidays, winter and summer vacations, they will read the classics of Chinese culture, recite famous sayings and aphorisms, and practice their argumentation skills under the guidance of full-time club teachers, until they turn the content and rules of difficult Chinese studies into a part of their thinking, speaking and even life.
To be honest, the style of No. 1 Middle School is a bit like the sports of Korea, as long as a talented athlete makes a breakthrough in a certain sport, nationalism will immediately rise, and all kinds of media will hype it, quickly elevate the project to a national ** movement related to the country's face, and then use the strength of the whole country to train players and stabilize their dominant position in the project. This is true for Lee Chang-ho for Go, Park Tae-hwan for swimming, and Kim Yuna for figure skating. However, this national system also has drawbacks, that is, once the leading talent player retires, it is likely to lead the entire project downhill, and even an avalanche-like rout, which often provokes the anxious and irritable people to beat their chests and feet, like mourning. Fortunately, in a country of tens of millions of people, there are always one or two sports geniuses who can lift one or two gold-winning sports, and there is no need to worry about the fragile people not being able to find the spiritual pillar of national self-confidence.
This kind of narrow, small and sophisticated development model is the characteristic of sports in small countries, and it is also the way to survive in ordinary schools. Just imagine, if a school does not have special subjects, but spreads the pie and sprinkles pepper noodles like a comprehensive key school, how can it stand out in a bunch of ordinary schools?
Chen Di was a little dissatisfied with Shi Xuan's growing enemy ambition and destroying his own prestige, and immediately retorted: "Is the No. 1 Middle School very powerful? Thinking back to more than 10 years ago, our Huai'an Mansion was invincible all over the province, which onion is their No. 1 Middle School? That is, it was only by taking advantage of the relative neglect of the basic training of Chinese culture in our school in the past few years that they were able to emerge from the army. There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are just overlords! Could it be that our former tiger is still afraid of his fox and fake tiger might, and the monkey with a fierce and introverted color?"
"A good man doesn't mention the courage of the year!" Shi Xuan sighed.
"Soft egg!" Chen Di's face was full of disdain and he didn't hesitate to button Shi Xuan with an inglorious high hat, "It's a shame that you're not an official team member." Otherwise, depending on the posture of looking at the wind and falling when you meet a strong team, kneeling and licking, I will not be so angry that I will vomit blood and die, and I will have to hide my face and die in shame!"
"Chen Di, speak civilly!" Although Liu Xinying agreed with her point of view, she couldn't help but reprimand her to maintain the unity of the whole team at this time, "As Shi Xuan said, the No. 1 Middle School is indeed very powerful and should not be underestimated, we can't be too cautious." However, attaching importance does not mean being afraid, still less is it the same as scaring ourselves into sore hands and feet and heart-splitting before we have even competed! On the contrary, we should despise it mentally and enter the arena with the confidence that we will win. Because I know that despise your opponent may not lead to victory, but fear of your opponent will never lead to victory!"
Fu Shouzhang echoed: "The president is reasonable! No matter how powerful the No. 1 Middle School is, it is still two hands and one mouth, not three heads, six arms and seventy-two changes, what is there to be afraid of? On the competition field, our soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it, and when the sky falls, there will be a tall person who will stand on top first! Shi Xuan, what are you worried about?"
Hearing Fu Shouzhang say "tall", Liu Xinying looked at Jiang Shuiyuan, who was hiding in the corner and holding the information, and never spoke: "Jiang Shuiyuan, as the main general, what do you think of this game?"
Zeng Ping interjected with a smile: "Senior Brother Jiang must think that what kind of bullshit No. 1 Middle School is just a local chicken and tile dog in my eyes, like a bid to sell the head, and watch me take them down in one fell swoop during the competition!--Provided that you don't hold me back!"
Jiang Shuiyuan ignored Zeng Ping, but pondered sideways for a moment before saying aloud: "There are at least three things that are clear now: first, the first middle school is very strong, second, we are not as strong as them, or in other words, some people think that we are not as strong as them, and third, we must win this game. Based on these three premises, I think the game will be very difficult unless we can do something else!"
"What kind of trick?" asked Liu Xinying and Chen Di at the same time.
"Change formation!"
"Changing formations? Changing formations in battle is a taboo for soldiers!" Liu Xinying and the others were all shocked, "Besides, our actual combat experience is not as good as that of the No. 1 Middle School, and now this poor experience is still accumulated in the previous few games." If you suddenly change your formation, you will lose even more badly with the Dragon King Saibao?"
Jiang Shuiyuan explained: "That's how I think about it. First of all, although we are not as good as the first secondary school in some aspects, we are not without merit, and the previous games have fully demonstrated this. No matter how powerful the No. 1 Middle School is, it will not ignore the existence of our powerful opponent, and it must have spied on our intelligence before, and arranged our troops and deduced tactics according to our lineup and their respective characteristics. A sudden change of formation can disrupt the opponent's strategic deployment and shake the enemy's self-confidence, which is a very meaningful thing. What's more, even you guys think it's incredible when I mentioned the change of formation just now, you can imagine how shocked they would be to suddenly see us change formation during the game!
In fact, in the national-level national learning competition, the battle change is also a time-honored tactic, which is staged every three or two sessions, which catches the opponent off guard, Zhang Huang is at a loss, and even wins in one fell swoop. I took a rough look at the past few competitions in Huai'an Mansion and found that no team has used this tactic in recent years. If we take it suddenly, it will definitely work wonders!"
"What else?"
Jiang Shuiyuan continued: "As for the problem of actual combat experience, I don't think it's a problem. It is precisely because everyone has little competition training, lack of actual combat experience, and their understanding of their respective positions has not yet been determined, that the sudden change of formation will not cause too strict consequences. What's more, changing the formation is not to change everyone, but just to adjust one or two positions appropriately!"
Liu Xinying asked, "If you change the formation, how do you want to adjust?"
Jiang Shuiyuan pointed at Fu Shouzhang: "I want to swap things with Senior Brother Fu, if Senior Brother Fu doesn't mind." ”
"Why?"
Jiang Shuiyuan replied: "This is the third reason why I want to change the formation. Since the difficulty of Chinese culture is a debate competition, what is compared is a penetrating analysis and a rebuttal with sharp words. Therefore, the easiest place to make mistakes in the competition is the three-debate question and free debate link, only by asking the other party tightly and refute the opponent without self-esteem, can the judges score high and defeat the opponent. This requires that the three debates must be logical, quick to react, sharp in speech, and compelling, and to charge into the formation of swords and swords, forcing the opponent to be in chaos. Jiang is not talented, and he is willing to recommend himself and take the initiative to ask for help! And Senior Brother Fu is calm and old, has profound attainments in Chinese studies, and has the style of a general, so it is most suitable to serve as the chief general!"
Liu Xinying was quite hesitant: "Senior Brother Jiang, you only know one and don't know the other. The main general must clearly explain his understanding of the debate topic and the premises, standards, and reasons for his own viewpoint, and he must also highlight the key points and express himself clearly and fluently. Once the foundation of the argument is unstable and the opponent grabs the handle, the whole subsequent debate will collapse. How else to call the main general? Since ancient times, no main general has been captured, and the three armies are undefeated!"
Jiang Shuiyuan shook his head: "Senior Sister Liu is too worried! Senior Brother Fu is already strong enough to be qualified for the position of the chief general, and there are still two hours of preparation time before the game, with everyone's collective efforts, it is not difficult to write a speech in advance, and it is not difficult to deal with it calmly!"
Liu Xinying turned her face and asked Fu Shouzhang: "President Fu, what is your opinion?"
Jiang Shuiyuan hugged his fist at Fu Shouzhang: "I hope Senior Brother Fu can bravely take on heavy responsibilities for the honor of the whole society!"
Fu Shouzhang did not answer Liu Xinying's question, but asked Jiang Shuiyuan instead: "Minister Jiang, what are your chances of winning if you change formations?"
Jiang Shuiyuan said: "It's hard to say how many percent of the chance of winning, but at least the change of formation is two percent more than the same formation!"
Fu Shouzhang nodded with satisfaction: "If the original lineup remains unchanged, I don't think the chance of winning will be more than two percent." Now Minister Jiang feels that changing the formation can give him an extra 20 percent chance of winning, that is, 40 percent. Forty percent is already very remarkable, and it is completely possible to let go of a big battle with No. 1 Middle School! Okay, I promise you!"
