Chapter 39—King of East Asia (1)
At noon on the 28th of the new year, Li Xianfeng took the plane home, although there were 10 days of family leave, but Li Xianfeng did not plan to really use up, according to the plan he was ready to fly back to the capital on the second day of the new year, so in fact, it was just a Chinese New Year's Eve with his family.
"My son is back!" The parents waited at the head of the village on the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and did not show a satisfied smile until they saw Li Xianfeng in the distance.
"Mom and Dad, I came back this time mainly to discuss something with you." When I got home, I simply talked to my parents about homely things, and Li Xianfeng went straight to the topic, "I now use my bonuses and allowances to make some money by trading stocks, and I have a few hundred thousand, I think about whether to buy two houses in the provincial capital, and our family will move over." This is also good for younger siblings' learning. ”
"No way!" The father simply refused, "The older generation is still here, how can we leave the village and go to the provincial capital." ”
"But." Li Xianfeng still wanted to persuade, "There is nothing to do, your mother and I are not going anywhere." "My father's attitude was unusually resolute.
In fact, as the most unloved third son in the family, the relationship between his father and the elderly brothers in the family has always been bad, and even the usual Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is eaten alone by Li Xianfeng's family, I don't know why his father suddenly used the older generation as an excuse and did not want to move out of the village.
"Your father is reluctant to leave home, reluctant to leave this piece of land at home, and besides, we don't know anything except farming, what are we going to do in the provincial capital?" It was the mother who found the opportunity to tell the truth.
Li Xianfeng patted his head, and then he reacted, now his parents are still in their 30s and less than 40, it is when he is in the prime of life, how can his father, as the head of the family, allow himself to rely on his eldest son to start supporting the elderly so early, you must know that even in the previous life, the brothers and sisters have already started their own families, and the old father in his 50s has followed Li Xianfeng to live in Beijing, and he always remembers a few pieces of land at home, let alone now.
Li Xianfeng figured these things out, so he gave up persuading his parents to move, and as for the problem of his brothers and sisters going to school, he could only rely on their own efforts for the time being, but fortunately, his younger brothers and sisters were very competitive, plus he had his own financial support in this life, there was no reason why it would be worse than the previous life.
had a lively reunion dinner with his family, and Li Xianfeng got up to pack his bags before dawn on the first day, left 50,000 yuan for his mother, and got on Uncle Song's tractor again.
"I'm going to be in the Olympics this year! In this way, it can be clearly proved that a road was built for the village and a few western-style buildings were built for the family. Looking at the village that was getting farther and farther away from his sight, Li Xianfeng secretly decided to make his parents' lives better even if he didn't go to the provincial capital.
As for why he didn't donate money until he entered the Olympics, Li Xianfeng knew very well that if he donated money to the government to build roads as a businessman, the greedy village and town governments might be bold enough to directly embezzle, and if he could donate as a 100-meter athlete participating in the Olympics, I believe they would have to weigh the consequences if they wanted to use the money.
"Xianfeng, you didn't stay a few more days?" Looking at Li Xianfeng, who returned to the base on the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Coach Yuan was a little surprised.
"Coach, aren't you too?" Li Xianfeng smiled and blinked, as his direct coach, of course Yuan Cheng can go home on vacation, Li Xianfeng deliberately did not tell Yuan Cheng that he would come back early, just because he wanted Yuan Cheng, who had been fortunate for a year, to rest at home for a few more days, but he didn't expect Yuan Cheng to return to the base at the same time as he had a tacit understanding with himself.
"Haha, is Xianfeng interested in running a few laps with me?"
"Glad to accompany you, Coach!"
The spring breeze of March is quietly coming, and overnight, the withered yellow trees seem to suddenly be rejuvenated, and the new shoots announce the arrival of spring.
In this March, not only the preparation of the track and field team ushered in a climax, all sports people have focused on the big training of the East Asian Games, athletes with the strength to impact the Olympic gold medal want to participate in this continental competition to see how their competitive state is, and athletes who have the task of impacting the Olympic Games regard this competition as an excellent opportunity to impact the Olympic standard.
"Our men's 100m list this time is, Chen Haijian, Zhang Bang, Li Xianfeng, Zhang Jiakai, Cheng Xiang and Hu Kai. The relay list is Chen Haijian, Zhang Bang, Zhang Jiakai, Cheng Xiang, and Li Xianfeng as substitutes. Coach Liu Bin read out the list of players who will compete in the East Asian Games in Osaka in April.
All the 100m athletes of the national team were selected, which is the first time in history, and I don't know where a Hu Kai can actually enter the list of East Asian Games.
"Where did this Hu Kai come from?" Zhang Jiakai asked Li Xianfeng in a low voice.
"I don't know." Although Li Xianfeng felt that the name was somewhat familiar, he couldn't remember anything.
"Ahem, Hu Kai is a special sprint student of Huaqing University, and he ran into 10.30 seconds in early February, and the East Asian Games gave us six places, so the track and field center decided to recruit Hu Kai into the national team, and Hu Kai will report from the national team tomorrow." Liu Bin explained the origin of Hu Kai to everyone.
"It turned out to be him!" Li Xianfeng finally remembered that this Hu Kai should be a sprint specialty student of Huaqing University, who was known as the glasses man in later generations, and he had also won several good results, and won the championship in national competitions and continental competitions, but later he devoted himself to studying, and he was not engaged in sprinting training due to his talent.
As for why Li Xianfeng remembers that he is not too famous, it is because of the hostility between Jingcheng University and Huaqing University, at the school games held by the two schools, Li Xianfeng also fought against him, but unfortunately lost to Hu Kai, who is already a graduate student.
"Good luck guys! As soon as you come, you will be able to participate in continental competitions. Zhang Jiakai was a little unhappy, because he had only participated in the Beijing Track and Field Open once after entering the national team for almost a year, and he was eliminated in the preliminaries, of course, he would be a little jealous of the lucky Hu Kai.
"There's nothing to envy, anyway, with his strength, even if he goes to the game, it's a soy sauce." Li Xianfeng maintained his usual contempt for the Huaqing people.
"Yes! By the way, Xianfeng, what is your goal for this East Asian Games? Final or medal? ”
"What is your goal?" Li Xianfeng did not answer Zhang Jiakai's question, but asked him rhetorically.
"Well, I don't need to play in one round, and if I can make it to the finals, then I'll be even happier!" Zhang Jiakai also didn't set himself too good and ambitious goals, guaranteed in the semifinals, and fought for the finals.
"Xianfeng, it's obvious that I asked you, how did it become that you asked me! Say what your goal is. Zhang Jiakai urged.
"My goal is a medal."
"Medals! With your strength, it's still quite possible. Zhang Jiakai looked at Li Xianfeng's eyes full of envy.
"And the color of the medal is gold!" Li Xianfeng thought silently in his heart.
