In the evening of the same day, at half past seven, the directors of the sports committees of 12 prefecture-level cities in Jiangnan Province gathered in the multimedia conference room of the provincial sports committee.

Everyone is a little puzzled by Director Zheng's sudden convening, this is not the end of the year yet, and the summary meeting has been advanced? They all poked their heads out and cast inquiring glances at him.

Zheng Xiangdong sat in the center of the conference room, he didn't see anything unusual on his face, he looked around at the directors of the sports committees of all the places who had arrived, and finally spoke:

"The reason why I'm so eager to gather you here today is because of a video I just saw this morning. Before we start, let's take a look at the video I mentioned. Xiao Liu, open the video! ”

The giant LED screen behind Zheng Xiangdong appeared on the basketball game of several children, which was the scene of the Qingshan Cup League! It's just that this video has been processed, so that everyone can only see the video of the game, and Ding Xiaoxuan's personal introduction has been cropped.

Shen Hai, director of the Sports Committee of Qingshan City, is a bare-faced and balding old man, as soon as the video was played, he felt very familiar, and he couldn't help squinting his old eyes to see it more clearly. Unexpectedly, this saw it, but it made him feel shocked: "Isn't this the primary school basketball game we just held a few days ago, why did the game video get into Director Zheng's hands?" Could it be that something went wrong with us organizing the competition ourselves? I didn't hear Lao Liu tell me! ”

The original 40-minute video was only half of it after being cut by the technicians of the Provincial Sports Commission. But in just 20 minutes, it has perfectly embodied the essence of the entire league.

"How? How do you feel after watching this video? At the end of the video, Zheng Xiangdong asked, "Xiao Xin, let's talk about it first!" ”

Xin Yi, who was named by Zheng Xiangdong, was the youngest director of the sports committee present. Unlike the others here, he does not have an athlete background, but is a top student who was directly assigned to the provincial capital Donghai City after graduating from the National Sports University.

"Since the director asked me to talk about it first, then I'll tell you what I think." Xin Yi was not stage frightened, stood up and gently tidied up his clothes, and continued to speak: "Everyone has seen that this is a high-level basketball series for primary school students. Although the footage of each game is incomplete, it is not difficult to see from these clips that the basketball level of these children on the court is still very high, and it can even be said that they can be ranked in the country! ”

"As you all know, in recent years, the biggest focus of our work in Donghai City has been to devote ourselves to youth basketball education, and we have also achieved certain results. But compared with the players in the video, there is still some heat behind. So I would like to boldly ask Director Zheng, where did this video come from, and where is it a competition in our country? Our most important job now is to set up a special research group, go to the local area for in-depth study, and by the way, take some lessons back, and jointly prosper the basketball development of our Jiangnan Province! ”

There is analysis, there is a plan. Xin Yi's speech made Zheng Xiangdong nod secretly.

"Xiao Xin, look at what you said, as if we don't pay attention to basketball?" A middle-aged man who was tall and sat there like a hill said, "After all, basketball is one of the three major balls, and everyone knows that we must focus on this project!" However, there is one thing you just said that I agree with it, now we pay attention to it, but we can't find an effective way to solve it! Boss, since you have this video in your hand, you must know where it came from, let's hurry up and go over to investigate! ”

"Lao Niu, you all know that the basketball level of your Daling City is the best in the province! Don't be impatient, let's listen to other people's opinions. Zheng Xiangdong seemed to be accustomed to this old man's expression, and pressed his palm down a few times, and the old cow instantly calmed down like a beast after being pacified.

Then, Zheng Xiangdong glanced at Shen Hai, who was sitting in the corner, intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a smile: "Old Shen, can you tell everyone too?" ”

"Hey, Director Zheng, you ......" Shen Hai, director of the Qingshan City Sports Commission, stood up, hesitated for a moment, and said helplessly, "Don't hide it from everyone, the video we just watched is from our Qingshan!" ”

As soon as Shen Hai's voice fell, it was like thunder on the ground, and the directors of the audience all cast surprised glances at him.

"Moreover, what Director Zheng showed us was the basketball league we just ended two days ago." Shen Hai finished his words with difficulty, and his face, which was already a little red, now looked even more red.

"Ouch! Old Shen! You inconspicuous mountain! Sneaking around and running your city's basketball so well? Don't talk about sharing your experience with us! That's not right for you! The old cow sat across from him and complained loudly.

Xin Yi, who has been quiet since expressing his views, also spoke: "Since this video is from our province, the work will be carried out better!" Everyone is here today, Director Shen, you will point us out and let us make progress together! ”

"Alas, what kind of experience can you have......" Shen Hai made a bitter face, "If I say that these children can play at such a level, it is the result of spontaneous training from the people, do you believe it?" ”

After speaking, he looked up at his colleagues, and the eyes in which everyone gave back to him were obviously capitalized: "Who are you coaxing?" ”

Shen Hai knew that everyone would definitely not believe his statement, so he had to continue to explain, "If you have to say that you have any experience, it is only our Lao Liu of the Basketball Association who insists on holding such a league for 20 years......"

"You guys, don't embarrass Lao Shen!" Zheng Xiangdong took his words, "I believe what he said. And before you came, I also transferred the work records of Qingshan City in the last 20 years. They have indeed insisted on holding a basketball league for elementary school students for 20 years! This quantitative change produces a qualitative change, and I don't think they can think of it themselves, nor can they see it. ”

"In fact, if I say a word, you will understand that training with the goal of competition is the most effective training to stimulate potential! It is precisely because of their city that this Aoyama Cup league has become a tradition. Therefore, the school team organized by the school spontaneously and the basketball training institution set up by the people will be derived. Old Shen, am I right? ”

Shen Hai nodded: "Indeed, basketball training in our city is spontaneous, and our Sports Committee and Basketball Association almost don't urge them much, because they don't need it at all!" ”

"At the beginning of this year, we set up a development plan with the goal of 'Movement for All'! It's just that it's the end of the year, and the effect we've received is minimal! Zheng Xiangdong suddenly turned to a larger topic, "I have always been very distressed, what kind of method can be used to popularize the importance of sports among the masses in our province?" Until today, when I saw this video, I suddenly had an idea, why can't we use basketball as a breakthrough for this plan? ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Director Niu of Daling City, "Lao Niu said just now, basketball is one of the three major balls!" Moreover, compared with other sports, it has the unique characteristics of being simple and easy to do, and it is also more suitable for the general public to participate. ”

"Think about it, this little basketball, you can play it alone, you can play against two people, and if there are more people, you can also play in groups. And all they need to be provided with is a field where they can play. There is no need for us to do any more propaganda and counseling work. No matter how high or low you are, there's something for everyone! ”

Director Zheng's words made all the directors fall into deep thought. But he didn't give everyone time to continue thinking.

"That's why I'm calling you today. I propose to also officially announce that our Jiangnan Province will also host events like the Castle Peak Cup from next year! ”

Xin Yi was the first to stand up in support: "I agree with the director's proposal!" The director's phrase 'training for the goal of the competition' just now points out the direction for us! It's just that most of our cities don't have a lot of independent teams like Aoyama. So I suggest that in the arrangement of the event, we should take the city as a unit, and we will form 12 teams from the 12 cities here to compete! ”

"Haha! Xiao Xin's words can speak to my heart! Lao Niu laughed, and looked at Shen Hai again after speaking, "Old Shen, I can tell you, our group of dolls in Daling are not bad, and when the time comes, we will have to compete well to see who is the number one basketball player in Jiangnan!" ”

"Hey, old cow, dare to love us, we are all your foils?" Another director of the sports committee quipped, "I haven't really tried it, can you know the real level of other places?" ”

"Haha! I'm so happy, I forgot! I'm sorry guys! Lao Niu was also honest, and quickly stood up and bowed in the middle of the venue, to accompany everyone.

"It seems that everyone's enthusiasm is still very high!" The meeting went so smoothly that Zheng Xiangdong was in a good mood, "Then let's preliminarily set the time of the provincial league, and the first session will start from next summer!" Xiao Xin, this competition venue, the schedule of the competition, you make a detailed plan out, and hand it over to me later!

"Okay! That's no problem, Director, I can do it in a week! Xin Yi nodded confidently and replied.

Seeing that everything had been arranged, Zheng Xiangdong stood up and waved his hand to the directors,

"Then let's stop here today, adjournment!"
