Chapter 26: New Goal: National Champion (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
Masao Yamazaki lost, and Gu Sansanwu didn't have the cheekiness to continue to stay, and after a few words of greeting with Principal Li, he said goodbye and left.
Principal Li was happy in his heart, today Gu 335 came to the door to call the battle, Principal Li originally made the worst plan, he thought that Fudan High School might lose, and even thought that it would be a situation where people lose and lose.
Fortunately, Chen Qiang stepped forward, and with Masao Yamazaki's kneeling, and with the cry of "I am the sick man of East Asia", Fudan won it all.
So after sending Gu Sansanwu away, Principal Li couldn't wait to meet the classmate who turned the tide.
After more than half an hour, a certain teacher came over with a depressed face and said, "Principal, we searched the entire school, but we didn't find that classmate. ”
"Can't find it? How could I not find it? Principal Li's face suddenly became a little unkind, he was the principal, and he couldn't find a student in his school, which was too shameless! Principal Li even felt that the teachers below were deliberately disobedient and did not take things seriously.
"We searched all corners of the school, even the men's bathroom, but we couldn't find him. I guess he's going home! The teacher replied.
"Oh, see him another day. By the way, what's this classmate's name? Principal Li then asked.
"Well, I don't know." The teacher replied with a sad face.
"Nonsense, you're a teacher at school, and you don't know what your student's name is? Even if you don't know the student's name, won't you ask another teacher? Principal Li said with some resentment.
The teacher shook his head: "I asked, all the teachers in the school don't know him, and they don't know what his name is, they all see him for the first time." ”
Principal Li showed a strange expression, as if to say Are you funny? The teacher doesn't even know the name of his student!
The teacher also felt that this answer was a bit counterintuitive, so he whispered, "I think he may not be a student of our school." ”
"Not a student from our school, where did that come from? How did you come to our school's sports day? Principal Li asked.
"Principal, today the school has a sports day, so students are not required to wear school uniforms, many of the students participating in the competition are all short dresses, I think as long as they are about the same age, it is not difficult to wear a vest and shorts to blend in." The teacher explained.
"So it's possible that he got in from outside? Such an excellent student, not even our student? The disappointment on Principal Li's face flashed.
As the principal, he certainly hopes that his students can be more excellent, and that Fudan can cultivate more talents.
If it were the principal of another school, he probably thought that the school cultivated scientists, writers, and even officials, which is called educating people to become talents, but Principal Li is different, he is from Nanyang Chinese, he went to the United States to study in his teens, and graduated from Yale University, so in his eyes, those who are good at sports are also talents, and it is also a success in education to cultivate an excellent athlete.
……
Chen Qiang had already found an opportunity to quietly leave Fudan High School.
Chen Qiang could guess that if he defeated Masao Yamazaki, he would inevitably become a man of the year in Fudan High School, but he was not a student of Fudan High School.
As a husky mixed in with the wolves, of course, you have to hurry away before the wolves can react, do you still have to stay and wait for a meal? Maybe it's eaten as a meal.
If Chen Qiang was really a student, even if he was not a student of Fudan High School, he would not be so cowardly, but he was just a low-level newsboy, who had no relatives and no reason in old Shanghai, even if he was slaughtered and thrown into the Huangpu River to feed the fish, no one would care, so Chen Qiang decided to develop lewdly first, don't be too prodigal.
However, now Chen Qiang has a new goal, he is no longer satisfied with living in this troubled world, he wants to take off the hat of "the sick man of East Asia" for the Chinese.
The best way, of course, is to win the gold medal at the Olympics.
Back in his small grass hut, Chen Qiang lay on the bed and carefully began to recall the information about the Olympic Games.
Chen Qiang is not an expert in history, and he only has a rough idea of the history of this era, but he knows the history related to sports very well.
"It's 1929 and I'm going to go to the Olympics, and I'm going to have to go to Los Angeles in 1932 at the earliest. The Los Angeles Olympics were followed by the Berlin Olympics in 1936, and after the outbreak of World War II, the Games were suspended until 1948. ”
"I remember reading some historical materials about the old China's participation in the Olympic Games, the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics, the first time the Chinese participated in the Olympic Games, and only one athlete was sent, that is, the sprinter Liu Changchun. However, he did not achieve results in the end and was eliminated in the preliminary stage. ”
The name Liu Changchun is no stranger to people who understand sports, he is the first Chinese to appear on the Olympic stage, and can be regarded as the first person in the Chinese Olympic Games.
"I remember that Liu Changchun broke the national records in the 100m, 200m and 400m at the 1929 North China Games, and the North China athletes should have ended a few months ago.
"According to the information I read in later generations, the government of the Republic of China did not plan to participate in the 1932 Olympic Games, but because the puppet Manchukuo signed up for the competition, Nanjing urgently called the International Olympic Committee to ask for registration."
"At that time, the person in charge of registering Liu Changchun was Mr. Zhang Boling, the founder of Nankai University, Mr. Zhang can be called the first person in China's physical education, and he also has a lot of connections in the International Olympic Committee. I remember that Liu Changchun's participation in the Olympic Games was also based on an urgent telegram from Mr. Zhang. ”
"But my current identity as a newsboy, I'm afraid I can't even see Mr. Zhang's face, even if I really see Mr. Zhang, do you want him to send a telegram to the IOC for a newsboy? If I want to be recognized by Mr. Zhang, I want to be like Liu Changchun, win a few championships in domestic competitions, and make myself famous, so that I can participate in the Olympic Games with fame. ”
"The Los Angeles Olympics were held at the end of July 1932, and now there are less than three years left before the Los Angeles Olympics, which means that I have three years to make myself a nationally known athlete."
"If an athlete wants to be famous, he has to go to competitions, and the more championships he wins, the more fame he will become. The Republic of China period is also not like later generations, there are few official sports competitions throughout the year. I remember that the most held was the North China Games, which were held for a total of 18 sessions. The North China Games are held in the north, basically in the Beijing-Tianjin area, which is too far away for me to afford train tickets. ”
"The East China Games was the closest to me, it was held in Shanghai, but unfortunately it was stopped after the May Day Massacre in 1925. Next year, there will be the third Central China Games, but this will only be attended by athletes from Hubei, Anhui, Hunan and Jiangxi provinces. In southern China, Guangzhou's games are mainly swimming and basketball, and there are basically no track and field events, but there is a Fujian-South Fujian United Games in Xiamen, Fujian, which is not large-scale, and it should be stopped now. ”
"It looks like the only option I have is next year's National Games. If I'm not mistaken, the 4th National Games of old China to be held in April next year is the first time that athletes will be selected in the mode of a selection competition, even if I am just a newsboy, I can sign up! ”
When Chen Qiang thought of this, he suddenly felt that the national champion was beckoning to him.
