As soon as Zhuang Yan's name came out, the people standing on the river street applauded desperately, and He Bing said with a smile: "Everyone knows that Zhuang Yan has an indissoluble bond with our Chadong, and his new book "Border City" is a book created with our Chadong as the background. For this, I would like to thank Zhuang Yan in particular, because he completely described a beautiful tea mountain in the book......"

After He Bing thanked him, he bragged again, not only boasting about Zhuang Yan, but also blowing the tea tong by the way.

After blowing, He Bing finally handed the megaphone to Secretary Qin, and then it was the time for Secretary Qin and Zhuang Yan to speak.

Secretary Qin also knew that the people present were not here to listen to him, so he didn't make a long speech, and handed the megaphone to Zhuang Yan after saying a blessing word.

Zhuang Yan took the megaphone and looked at the crowd, he didn't expect to speak before he came, so he didn't prepare any lines. I just organized a voice in my head, and I realized that there was actually nothing to talk about.

"Ahem, today is the dragon boat race in Chatong Town, I wish this event a complete success, and I also wish the contestants who will participate in the competition can achieve good results. In addition, I would like to remind you that the weather is a little cold today, so our players must do a good warm-up activity before entering the water, so as not to have some unnecessary accidents. Okay, that's all I have to say. Zhuang Yan briefly summarized his speech.

"Good!"

"Well said!"

"Zhuang Yan is Zhuang Yan, I am still concerned about the health of the players at this time, so good!"

As soon as Zhuang Yan finished speaking, the crowd applauded again and applauded loudly.

In fact, what Zhuang Yan said was not nutritious or exciting enough, but the audience was very enthusiastic.

After he finished speaking, he returned the megaphone to He Bing, but He Bing actually hadn't reacted yet, he had hoped that Zhuang Yan would be able to say a few more words, but he didn't expect it to be over after only saying these two sentences.

Reluctantly took the horn, He Bing did not forget the process behind him, he beckoned to a few people who had been standing behind, and those young men came to the front with ribbon tapes.

Secretary Qin and Zhuang Yan each held a pair of scissors, and then sang with He Bing, and the two of them cut the ribbon together.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony was over, and a man in charge of playing drums by the river, bare-chested, beat the drumsticks with a bang.

The dragon boat runners who were ready to go by the river, heard the sound of drums, pushed the boat on the shore into the river together, and then they themselves got on the boat, and the dragon boat race officially began.

On the stone pier bridge, after cutting the ribbon, Secretary Qin shook hands with Zhuang Yan with a smile and said: "There are still some things to deal with in my unit, Mr. Zhuang, you are here to watch the game, I will lose my company first." ”

"Secretary Qin is a parent official, you can understand every opportunity, if you have a job, go quickly, if you delay your work, I can't afford it. Zhuang Yan said with a smile.

Secretary Qin smiled, turned around and said to He Bing: "Captain He, I'll go back first, Teacher Zhuang is here, and I want you to take care of it more." ”

He Bing smiled and said, "Secretary Qin, don't worry, I'm here to take care of it." ”

After Secretary Qin left, He Bing pulled Zhuang Yan to squeeze into the crowd again, "Let's go, I'll take you to the stilted floor of my house to see, stand high and see far." ”

Zhuang Yan didn't go with him, but stood in place and said: "There are so many people, I still don't squeeze in, it just so happens that there are few people here, I can stand here and watch for a while." ”

He Bing looked around, basically the eyes of the people on the river street were focused on this side, he sighed and said, "Alas, I am also for your own good, and your goal here is too big." ”

"Forget it, even if I go to your house on stilts, my goal is not small, but they have to look up at me when they see me, how uncomfortable, I'll watch it here, and let them see me conveniently." Zhuang Yan said with a smile.

"Hey, you're so sweet, okay, I'll get two chairs. ”

The chair was quickly brought in, and Zhuang Yan really sat on the bridge with the chair and watched the dragon boat race in the river.

It may have been deliberately improved by He Bing, and this dragon boat race obviously has a very heavy atmosphere of modern competition.

The first is the change in clothing, although they also wear single clothes, but now they wear single clothes more like training vests, and the color of each team's game uniforms is different.

There are now four teams competing in the river, and their clothes are red, orange, blue, and green.

In addition to the costumes, each team's dragon boat also has a square flag on it, the same color as the competition uniform, and it looks like the team name should be printed on it.

In addition, there are four tracks in the river, and floats are also used as signs.

The four teams in the competition now are not at a very good level, at least in Zhuang Yan's eyes, compared with them, these players are far behind.

Zhuang Yan smiled and asked He Bing next to him: "The players in these competitions are all from Chadong?"

"Of course it is, it's our Chadong dragon boat race, of course, it's all our Chadong people. He Bing said proudly.

Zhuang Yan nodded, this explains that Chadong has not had a dragon boat race in recent years, and there are not too many people who can swim, so it is good to be able to find so many rowers, and it is indeed not too demanding for the level of the players.

However, although the level is not high, the atmosphere is still warm, with the thunder of the drums, the mood of the people on the shore is also infected, and they gradually take their eyes off Zhuang Yan and turn their eyes to the game below.

The onlookers don't understand dragon boats, and many people are seeing dragon boat races for the first time, so they just watch the excitement.

……

"Sister Lian, this dragon boat race is really interesting. ”

On a stilted building, He Xiaoya held on to the railing and pointed to the dragon boat racing in the river with a smile on her face. But Ren Lian's eyes were still on Zhuang Yan, and she smiled: "If you want to talk about dragon boat racing, the dragon boat racing below is not as lively as it is written in "Border City". ”

"It's an exaggeration, isn't art all about exaggeration?" He Xiaoya said with a smile.

Ren Lian shook her head, "Nothing else is an exaggeration, why do you want to exaggerate this place, do you say Zhuang Yan has really seen that lively scene?"

He Xiaoya looked at Zhuang Yan on the stone pier bridge, and then looked at Ren Lian beside her, and said strangely: "Sister Lian, what's wrong with you, I used to think nonsense, it was you who set things right for me, why are we falling off one by one, what do you think about every day." I heard the old men of Chadong say that the kind of scene written by Zhuang Yan only existed thirty years ago, how old is Zhuang Yan, and he was not born thirty years ago, can he see it?"

Ren Lian came back to her senses and knocked on He Xiaoya's head with a smile, "You're smart." ”
