Chapter 115: Little Don't Win
Due to the unexpected confrontation between Qian Quan and Asuka Igarashi, the popularity of this Sino-Japanese martial arts exchange competition has reached a real peak.
Not to mention the top spot in the hot search of short video platforms and social networks, the heated discussions among netizens have also set off a climax.
"This controversy should be over, who is better in the end, Japanese martial arts or Chinese martial arts?"
"It turns out that a Japanese genius girl is a fist in front of a Chinese genius boy!"
"When I saw Qian Quan pinching her neck, I knew that this person was not simple."
"The light of righteousness shines on the earth!"
"When I saw that Qian Quan began to only defend and not attack, to be honest, I was really a little disappointed, until I saw his repeated operations behind him and was slapped in the face, I called it awesome!"
"Cool! The evaluation of this one word is concise and clear, but it vividly expresses the author's mentality at this time. ”
……
With the hot players fighting in advance, public opinion swept the online world, and the Sino-Japanese martial arts exchange competition came to an early end.
There's not much attention paid to the final part.
On the contrary, those "san" voices sounded again:
For example, a certain media took the lead in publishing an article titled "The Hidden Concerns Behind the Feverish Public Opinion on the Sino-Japanese Martial Arts Competition".
The article sharply points out that all kinds of voices of approval and support on the Internet show an irrational tendency, and analyzes the deep-seated reasons for the formation of this trend of thought--changing the soup instead of the medicine, which is still the same old way.
Some media people wrote articles questioning:
"Seeing those crazy public opinions on the Internet, there is an unsettling emotion surging in my chest, I can't help but ask, can a martial arts exchange match close the gap between the soft power of the two countries?
"Stop this arrogant behavior, don't say that a martial arts exchange competition, even the Olympic gold medal is no longer a symbol of national strength......
……
There are also some remarks about the game itself, which have also attracted a lot of attention:
"Maybe you have seen the so-called martial arts authenticity dispute, the national honor dispute, but I only saw barbarism and violence!
"Although I knew that this was a martial arts competition and should not be over-interpreted, I felt a chill to my bones when I saw that boy's expression was so fierce, his movements were so rough, and there was no grace at all.
"Perhaps, that boy is really good at kung fu, but it is also a fact that he committed violence in the name of martial arts competitions, and this kind of man with violent tendencies is a potential danger factor in society, and he must stay away from life."
……
Every time there is a hot event, public opinion on the Internet begins to fragment, which seems to have become a common practice.
It's just about the same thing, the same group of people will give different feedback for different countries, this kind of double standard is often uncomfortable, and some netizens angrily counterattacked:
"Yes, if the Japanese player wins against China, that is the embodiment of the country's soft power, and if the Chinese player wins against Japan, that is, this kind of competition is meaningless and does not represent anything.
"The Japanese players performed well, that is, the social environment is good, and the country is easy to cultivate talents in all aspects;
"The Chinese players have performed well, that is, the robots specially trained by the strong government to win glory for the country, without thought and self-......
"It's not even a double standard, it's opposition for the sake of opposition.
"As long as you preach it, I will slander; As long as you are in favor of it, I will oppose it......"
On the 13th, the Sino-Japanese martial arts exchange competition finally came to an end.
There is a large number of comments on the Internet trying to conclude the coffin of this exchange competition:
"There are no winners in this competition."
In a way, this is already their biggest compliment.
The official media did not deliberately exaggerate Qian Quan's record of killing Shimizu Ichiro and Igarashi Asuka, but after reporting it truthfully, it gave a four-word evaluation of "a successful ending".
As the most outstanding performance and the most popular, Qian Quan accepted a formal interview.
He did not shy away from the controversy over the final injury to Igarashi Asuka, and his tone was gentle and humble:
"On the playing field, only going all out is the greatest respect for the opponent and for yourself, just like the media and netizens said when they commented on the birds."
Of course, there are a lot of real blunt responses to those so-called "controversies" that he didn't say.
For example, in all of the previous games, Asuka has never followed the point to stop, and has been chasing one-hit kills.
These are described as "the murderous spirit that should be seen on the field", "the serious craftsmanship of the Japanese people", and "the charm of fascinating contrasts......
In fact, every shot of Asuka is full of an inexplicable hatred and pleasure.
It was inherited from her father, Yuki Igarashi.
She is a girl who was stamped with her father's mental seal.
If she has the ability and opportunity, she will definitely waste herself at all costs, just like she wants to do to Zhao Baiyu.
How could Qian Quan be merciful to her subordinates within the rules?
There are not many similar opinions on the Internet, but for those who tell nonsense with their eyes open, these words do not make sense.
As they say, online arguments, especially those involving ass issues, are the ones that really don't tell the winner, there is no winner.
Only by achieving victory in fact can those who are hard-mouthed really suffer from the heart.
That night, Qian Quan received at least eight invitations to dinner, all of which declined one by one.
He, Zhao Baiyu and Bai Yuanzhi, under the leadership of Zhang Xianger, went to eat what is known as the first barbecue in Beijing.
"Second brother, some people on the Internet say that he is a straight man of steel, and he can also put such a heavy hand on cute girls, note Gusheng, what do you think?"
After arriving at the barbecue stall and finding a seat to sit down, Zhang Xianger asked with a smile.
"How many of our contestants did that cute girl take to the hospital? Didn't anyone say she's a straight daughter of steel? Qian Quan also made a joke.
Zhao Baiyu continued: "I reviewed with Master after I got off the field, if you didn't pull me away, I might also have to go to the hospital." ”
Zhang Xianger said: "It's not possible, it's certain." As long as the little Japanese girl has the upper hand, it is all a combo that hits the opponent hard. ”
"Well, it feels like she's a robot that has been programmed."
Qian Quan said: "This analogy is very close to the truth.
"Judging from the rules of the game, she is an opponent, but ideologically, she is an enemy, and the enemy does not have a gender."
When the others heard this, they all nodded silently.
Even Zhang Xianger rarely didn't make any more jokes.
……
Early the next morning, Qian Quan returned to Zhonghai.
Ding Linlang went to pick him up at the station.
At first glance, the two of them parted ways, and their expressions were not the same as before, and there was an inexplicable throbbing that formed an invisible vortex between the two, enveloping them.
Neither of them spoke, looked at each other for a moment, smiled, and then hugged each other.
The emotions of longing fell abruptly.
Both hearts became extremely grounded.
They hugged each other very tightly, very tightly.
Smell the fragrance of each other's hair and feel each other's heartbeat and breath.
After hugging like this for three minutes, Qian Quan adjusted the orientation of his head, gently lifted Ding Linlang's white chin with one hand, and kissed it.
kissed for a long time before reluctantly parting, and then the two of them put their heads on their heads and chuckled in unison.
Then, they left the station hand in hand.
