Chapter 63 Brother Xun also has to participate in the sports meeting

In fact, Cai Yuanpei's idea can not be changed in three or two sentences, especially when he insists on mass sports and opposes elite competitive sports, and he still adheres to this view until his later years, believing that this method is uneven - sports are exclusive to a few people and too heavy - some players are too sports-oriented and sacrifice other homework.

In fact, this view of the all-staff games is still useful to this day, and to a considerable extent points out the disadvantages of our future games, such as some athletes ignore cultural classes and only participate in sports activities, resulting in insufficient knowledge level, and some people fall into difficulties in life after retirement.

There is only one champion, no one can always be a champion, sooner or later there will be a day when they will grow old, and it is no longer realistic to consider the issue of cultural classes at that time.

However, for now, I still insist on running the school's sports meeting well and accumulating experience. Especially this year, the 3rd Far Eastern Games will be held in Tokyo, and our country will participate in 8 of these events and strive to win the gold medal.

Cheng Nuo's idea is to participate in it if he can participate in it, even if he misses it this year, there will be the 4th Far Eastern Games held in Manila, Philippines in 1919, and by cultivating a group of athletes to participate in the 1920 Antwerp Olympics, so that Liu Changchun's tragedy will not happen again.

And this is the golden generation of Chinese football, it is a pity not to cultivate it, if it is possible in the future, even let the World Cup be created in advance. I couldn't beat you in my previous life, I admit it, and now these seniors are not weak, and it is entirely possible to embroider stars on their jerseys.

After all, after so many years of sports science, there is always something that can surpass this era.

The more Cheng Nuo thought about it, the more energetic he became, and he didn't even know when he was made by the coach.

When the new youth editor came over, he realized that something was abnormal.

Mr. Chen squatted down and said with a smile: "Zhiyuan, I said why have you made great achievements one after another recently, it turns out that you are practicing silently behind your back, which makes me embarrassed." ”

"Sir, you're joking, it's just a small contribution, and I can't see it." Cheng Nuo hurriedly stood up, and the tingling pain in his leg made him exhale coldly: "When did Mr. come, I didn't know, I didn't go over to greet him, and I apologized here." ”

Mr. Chen laughed: "I'm not one of those pedantic old men, I can walk normally on two legs, I don't need you to go all the way to pick me up, that's what you ......."

circled around Cheng Nuo and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that if you go forward now, I will have to carry you back." ”

Cheng Nuo wanted to stand up, but his legs didn't agree at all, and he was a little helpless: "I don't know if Mr. is coming, what is important, I will definitely help if I can, there is no other word." ”

"I'm really doing a little bit of a favor for you to help." Mr. Chen took a few stools and helped Cheng Nuo to sit down: "Although I disagree with Liang Ren's official politics, I agree with his sentence 'My Chinese nation has no lively atmosphere, no brave spirit, no courage and perseverance', in my opinion, our people are lacking a kind of bestiality." ”

The so-called bestialism refers to the physical and mental requirements of young people to achieve physical fitness, strong will, open-mindedness, and self-confidence in the future through exercise.

After taking the stool and sitting down, Cheng Nuo felt much better, but he still had some doubts: "I know Mr.'s bestiality, and it also happens to coincide with the recent sports practice of Peking University. ”

Mr. Chen was stunned after hearing this, and hurriedly said: "This is true, but it is only one of them, and secondly, I want you to write an article for our next issue of the journal, with the theme of "The Spirit of Sports", and let the famous Professor Tom talk about his views on sports." ”

In fact, Mr. Chen came just to make an appointment, but he didn't expect to be brought in by Cheng Nuo, and now it's hard to deny it, so he agreed, but he was also thinking in his heart that it was time for those editors to move.

"Naturally, there is no problem on my side, when will the manuscript be delivered?" Cheng Nuo thought about it for a while, and agreed to this request, which can indeed spread some new sports ideas to everyone, and the more intense the discussion, the wider the response, and the goal will be achieved.

After seeing that the other party agreed, Mr. Chen laughed again: "Zhiyuan, your sports meeting is relatively simple, I am old, and the emphasis is on participation, so the ranking is not forced." ”

Cheng Nuo rubbed his nose and introduced: "For example, long jump, sprint, shot put, etc., these don't look too tiring." ”

Mr. Chen thought about it for a moment and asked, "Is there anything else, okay, then I'll take a long jump, by the way, report a collective exercise to our colleagues in the editorial room, you can't always stand there and watch me laugh." ”

A few days later, Cheng Nuo's manuscript was published in "New Youth", focusing on the fun games that are widely used in the future, so that all participants can feel the happiness brought by sports to a greater or lesser extent.

At the same time, the Far Eastern Games and the Western Olympic Games were also introduced, so that these two major sports events could enter the attention of the masses, give them higher attention, know that sports can also bring a sense of national pride and national identity, and highly praise those athletes who participated in international events.

And that issue of Cheng Nuo's article was the headline on the front page, which not only exported a small number of sports ideas from later generations, but also set off discussions at the entire social level.

Lu Xun supported: "Now the class of educators has changed the old method of 'Nine Heavens Xuannu to Emperor Xuanyuan, Emperor Xuanyuan to nuns', to new martial arts, and Chinese-style gymnastics, asking young people to practice, that is, to run in shackles, smiling and generous." On the contrary, Professor Cheng's method of covering most sports is the most effective, and children can pick up a stone and kick it for half a day after learning, which is fun and educational. ”

Mr. Chen also followed the post: "Our Chinese education, since ancient times, has focused on moral education, and intellectual education is still a little exquisite, but no one has ever advocated physical education, so that the whole country is weak and dying, and if you want to awaken the minds of the people, you also need to forge the strength of our people's bodies." Professor Cheng's Olympic Games happen to be an excellent window to show the new face of our people, and we should be proud of the honor brought by sports events. ”

However, it is not only agreeing, there are also a lot of noises.

Some people have taken advantage of the opportunity to criticize sports and hype up the "sit-in" method, calling it the only best and most effective sport in the world.

Cheng Nuo originally scoffed at this, but later he was really worried that some people would learn this broken method and meditate like Ah San, and it would be a lot of fun.

After all, victory is won by bloodshed, not by sitting on a hunger strike.

When having dinner with the editors of the new youth, Lu Xun disdained this: "First of all, he pulled science around, talked nonsense, made it unclear, imprisoned in a country, carefully glanced at the outside world, and then trembled into the old trap, isolated from the world trend, but he didn't know that his bed had already smelled extremely foul, and after sitting quietly, he thought he had stood up, and he couldn't smell the stench on his body, and he was stupid." ”

Cheng Nuo agreed: "The biggest harm of meditation is that it makes people gradually become negative, we are quiet day by day, pure heart and few desires, day by day the enterprising spirit is exhausted, we may get less sick and stay breathing for a while, but the powers next to us are watching, I am afraid we will not be allowed to do this." ”

When the other editors heard this, they agreed, saying that they would grind it well when they went back, and vowed to kill the other party to the point of losing their armor.

However, when it came to the upcoming Games, everyone was silent.

Mr. Chen sprinkled a handful of peanuts on the table: "Eat, everyone eats, these are all brought from home, fried by myself, if you don't like it, there are fried pumpkin seeds." ”

Qian Xuantong pinched a peanut, peeled it and stuffed it into his mouth: "Sir, how did I hear that you have registered an event for each of us, in addition to the collective and the individual." ”

Mr. Chen pretended to be suddenly enlightened and sat back in his chair: "Oh, this, I was just about to tell you, Cai Gong didn't let Zhiyuan hold a sports meeting with full participation, I thought that our editorial office was in Peking University, and all the professors of liberal arts could participate, so we can't be special." ”

Saying that, he glanced at Cheng Nuo, and Cheng Nuo immediately understood the meaning: "Yes, that's it, there are interesting games that can't participate in competitive events, so that everyone can enjoy them, and the activities are strong, but Mr. Chen reports to everyone that it is a collective sport, and the individual does not make decisions for everyone." ”

Mr. Chen ate peanuts and said with a smile: "That's what Zhiyuan said, but Da Vinci in the West didn't say that sports are the source of all life, and it is more powerful to participate in battles." However, I think it would be too childish to only participate in group sports, so I think it would be better for me to take the lead and register and participate in solo sports. ”

"This is a good feeling, I thank you sir for the spring sports preparation team." Cheng Nuo also deliberately pretended to be a lake, as if he really didn't collude with Mr. Chen in advance: "Then report a long jump, but Mr. will contact him in advance to warm up." ”

Mr. Chen agreed: "Of course it's fine, right?" ”

sang and harmonized, and just put everyone in the editorial club into it, but the peanuts swallowed and spit out didn't count.

Helplessly, everyone took a personal exercise back.

However, when it was Mr. Lu Xun's turn, Cheng Nuo deliberately played a trick: "Mr. Zhou, you see that the short track sports of our teacher group are slowing down, why don't you try long-distance running?" ”

Lu Xun in life is much more polite and easier to speak, especially for fear of troublesome others, so he nodded: "Then there is a long way to go, just report to me what is left." ”

"Okay, the five-kilometer race is too long, so let's do it for one kilometer, Mr. Zhou must exercise more in private, so as not to strain himself when he gets it."

Cheng Nuo didn't mean to deliberately make it bad, but he was really worried about Mr. Lu Xun's body and didn't want him to die young.

Exercise ahead of time, and maybe the tragedy won't happen again.

As a result, the Peking Spring Games, which participated in the most "masters" in history, began.
