Chapter Twenty-Six: Happy People
The Spring Festival in 2024 is approaching, and many people have no intention of working at this time, and their minds are full of arrangements for the Spring Festival holiday.
And for Chinese fans, they are enjoying the feeling of an early Chinese New Year.
On January 23, the Chinese Olympic team defeated the Vietnamese Olympic team 2-0 in the semi-finals of the U23 Asian Cup and reached the final of the U23 Asian Cup.
Although the champion has not yet been decided, and I don't even know who my opponent will be in the final, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
The Chinese team has qualified for the Olympic Games, which is what everyone is most concerned about.
When the whistle blew at the end of the game, the entire land of Shenzhou was boiling.
I don't know how many places have become a sea of cheers, and how many people's wine glasses have been raised high and drunk again.
The Internet jokers began their own.
Someone uploaded a video of Chinese fans lighting firecrackers in a short video app like Douyin or Kuaishou, and then accompanied it with an excited commentary: "That's how the Chinese team entered the World Cup!" ”
But if Hulai saw this, he would only pout.
At the time and space when he came, although he was born after the Chinese team entered the World Cup, through the documentary materials circulating on the Internet, he still knew the grand occasion of the motherland after the Chinese team entered the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea.
It is far from being comparable to the current national Olympic team entering the Olympic Games.
It's just that for Chinese football in this time and space, being able to enter the Olympics is indeed a top-level event.
After all, apart from relying on the host country's qualifications to qualify for one Olympics before, this is the first time they have participated in the Olympics through qualifying.
In the previous time and space, Chinese football had reached the 1988 Seoul Olympics through the qualifiers.
Judging from the results of the Chinese team that has not even participated in the World Cup finals in this time and space, it can be known that Chinese football in this time and space is even worse.
But is it a blessing for Seon to lose his horse?
Perhaps it is precisely because the results are so poor that it will lead to a thorough reform after the anti-crime storm in 2015, instead of being like in the time and space where Hu Lai came, after arresting a group of people, it will be over, just changing a group of people as leaders, and nothing has changed.
When he first crossed over, Hu Lai felt that the Chinese fans in this time and space were really pitiful.
But now he felt that they were going to have to endure their hardships......

When Li Ziqiang went to work at Dongchuan Middle School in the morning, he met Principal Zhai at the school gate, and he was directing the workers to hang a red banner at the school gate.
Seeing Li Ziqiang, he happily beckoned the other party to wait.
"Old Headmaster, what are you doing here?" Li Ziqiang asked strangely.
"Hehe, you'll find out right away." After Principal Zhai finished speaking, he shouted at the workers: "Now hang the banner!" ”
On both sides of the school gate, two workers, one on the left and one on the right, dragged the banners on the ground and climbed the ladder.
As they moved, the banner was unfurled and raised, as if it were a flag.
Li Ziqiang looked up and saw the big words on the banner:
"Congratulations to our students Hu Lai and Luo Kai for leading the Chinese Olympic team to the 2024 Madrid Olympic Games!"
In addition to him, the students and teachers who came to school and work also stood outside the school gate, looking up at the banner and the big line on the banner.
Someone took out his mobile phone, filmed the scene, and uploaded it to the Internet.

"Look at Dongchuan Middle School, why didn't we think of it in Jiaxiang High School?"
Wu Yue downloaded the photo of the banner hanging at the gate of Dongchuan Middle School that he saw in Yan Yan's circle of friends, and then sent it to his alumni group, and sent such a soul question.
It immediately aroused a heated discussion.
"Fuck, I'm still learning to play in Dongchuan Middle School!"
"Our Jiaxiang High School may not be as shameless as Dongchuan Middle School......"
"It can't be said that they have indeed cultivated two national Olympic players. People will publicize, now everyone knows that Hu Lai and Luo Kai are from Dongchuan Middle School, but how many people know that Wang Guangwei's team also went out of our Jiaxiang High School? ”
While we were discussing, someone posted a photo of the school gate of Jiaxiang High School, and a banner was hung on it, which read: "Warm congratulations to our student Wang Guangwei for leading the Chinese Olympic team to the 2024 Madrid Olympic Games!" ”
Wu Yue was surprised: "What? Do we have one in our school? ”
"No, Wu Yue, look closely......"
"Damn! P's! ”
"Hahaha! Talented! P's okay too! ”
"Ask for the original picture, I'll send it to Moments!"
"Together, I'll tweet!"

As soon as Xie Lan entered the office, he grabbed a handful of candy from the plastic bag he was carrying and stuffed it into the hands of his colleague sitting at the desk at the door: "Eat candy, eat sugar!" ”
"Sister Xie, are you having any happy events today?" The colleague was surprised to hold the candy in both hands.
"Hey, Lao Zhang, didn't you watch yesterday's game? The national Olympic team has entered the Olympic Games! Immediately, other colleagues in the office enthusiastically explained to him.
"Oh oh, that's it! That's a great event! Sister Xie, your son is amazing! ”
Xie Lan smiled on her face, and gave out candy one by one, and her mouth was still modest: "Hey, it's average...... Come on, eat sugar! ”
She just sent it all the way, and when she came to Sister Wang, she paused and smiled embarrassedly: "Oops, I forgot Sister Wang's high blood sugar ......"
After saying that, she turned to the workstation next to Sister Wang and gave the candy to the man.
Sister Wang's mouth was open, she wanted to say something, but in the end, she still didn't say anything.
She lowered her head again, put on the noise-canceling headphones that she had spent nine yuan nine to grab on Pinduoduo, and turned on the noise-canceling function along with the music, ready to block out all the disturbances and laughter from the outside world.
The knot is in the human realm, and there is no noise of cars and horses; Ask you how you can be, and your heart is far away.
But I don't know if the noise cancellation effect of the noise-canceling headphones is not as good as advertised, or if her music is not loud enough, or if her heart is not far enough, in short, she can still hear the conversation and laughter in the office.
"Sister Xie, I remember that you only shared the joy candy with us when your son was 'Ninety-Five Supreme' before, right? If you divide it like this, the cost is not small! ”
"Hey, what's that? If my son behaves like this every day, I'll be happy even if I'm bankrupt! ”
"Hahahaha!"
The office erupted in laughter.
Sister Wang had to turn the music up and down again, until her head was buzzing with the music, and she didn't stop.

When Li Qingqing stepped into the locker room, Lilith Raza's eyes widened when she saw her, and she asked suspiciously, "Qingqing, why are you so happy?" ”
"Is there one?" Li Qingqing asked.
Raza nodded, "Of course, you still have a smile on your face now. ”
After speaking, she held up the small mirror in her hand in front of Li Qingqing.
Sure enough, Li Qingqing's smiling face appeared in the mirror.
"Look at how smiling you are...... It's like being in love. Say, Qingqing, who's your boyfriend? Let me see which bastard is so lucky......" Lilith Raza half-jokingly.
Li Qingqing in the mirror glanced at her: "What! It is our Chinese Olympic team that has qualified for the Olympic Games and is going to participate in the Madrid Olympics! ”
After listening to Li Qingqing's reason, Lilith Raza was stunned for a moment: "That's it?" ”
"Isn't that something to be happy about?" Li Qingqing asked her rhetorically.
"It's ......worth it," Raza nodded and frowned, "but you don't have to be so happy, right?" ”
"Lilith, you don't understand, what a great result this is for our country's football - apart from the 2012 Olympics, our men's team has never made it to the Olympics through qualifying after participating in the Olympics as the host country!" Li Qingqing explained to his teammates very seriously. "But this time, they did well at the Under-23 Asian Cup and reached the final of the Under-23 Asian Cup very smoothly and qualified for this summer's Olympics in Madrid!"
After listening to this, the corners of Lilith Laza's mouth twitched: "Then your country's men's football team is really good......
Li Qingqing didn't bother to say more to her, turned to his cabinet with a smile on his face, and prepared to change his clothes and start training.
She already had in her mind the image of walking through the rostrum of the opening ceremony with Hulay in the Olympic delegation.
Who would have thought that five years ago, they were just ordinary high school students, and Hulai was a rookie who no one wanted, and could only play football alone in a secret base?
But by the summer, the two of them will be wearing the uniform of the Chinese delegation, holding small flags in their hands, waving to the world.
It's sure to be a great memory.
Lilith Raza looked at Li Qingqing's back behind her and couldn't help frowning.
The Chinese men's football team participates in the Olympic Games, what does it matter to you as a female football player!
