As a result, the first call that woke me up was from the hotel. The other party was a waitress with a sweet voice. She said, "Hello, Mr. Xiao, we are the customer service of Hongyun hotel. You have reserved 35 rooms in our hotel. According to the schedule, we will send two buses to meet the players of Yucai civil and military school. Can we start now?"
My sleepy eyes faltered: "what time is it?"
The other party said word by word like the time table: "the time is 6 o'clock sharp."
I said, "so early?"
The waitress carefully reminded me: "the opening ceremony is 8 o'clock..."
The one-way from the stadium in the city center to the school is more than 40 points.
I said, "let's go."
"OK, sorry to disturb your rest, and thank you again for your visit."
The other party's sweet voice made me in a good mood. Since the opening ceremony began immediately, I couldn't sleep. I bent over to wash my face. As for why I bent over, only the strong male compatriots understand. It seems that my kidney is really good, and... I have been separated from steamed stuffed bun for more than a month. When the cold water was stimulated, I reacted a little. Why 35 rooms? I asked Secretary Liu to arrange 30 rooms for 60 people. In fact, to tell the truth, I didn't expect him to arrange standard rooms for three-star hotels. It's 200 for each room according to group occupancy and discount. 7000 a day and three meals can be more than 10000 yuan. Although this money is a drop in the bucket for a prefecture level city, it also shows that the government is concerned, Although Hongyun hotel has only three stars. All the strengthening and expansion meetings in the city are held there. They belong to long-term cooperation units.
I drove to the hotel first, and there were obviously many more cars than usual. There were TV stations, municipal government, patrol police, traffic police and riot police. Of course, the largest was the teams from various places. The nearest provinces and cities brought their own cars, with the names of their schools or martial arts schools on the body, and some burned bags with the words "victory". Most of them arrived a few days ago. In order to save money, there are not many teams who have pressed their time. Since ancient times, people who are poor, rich and powerful, and have no money usually don't open a Road Museum, but they can't live in a hotel so convenient for good luck no matter how rich they are. This is called that strong dragons don't pressure local snakes, tigers fall and the sun is flat... Er, I can only say that I occupy a favorable place.
Take a look at the hotel. Sure enough, it has become a temporary gathering place for competition staff. Young people wearing straight suits can be seen everywhere with work cards hanging on their chest. They have begun to be busy.
As soon as I registered at the front desk, the waiter looked at me differently. I immediately called secretary Liu who was waiting in the conference room. Secretary Liu was already very busy. Our government lacked experience in holding such a large-scale competition. He called a staff member and told him, "take director Xiao to see the venue and their auditorium. Give him the office key." Then he patted me on the shoulder and had no time to talk to me.
I walked to the stadium with the young man and put the car at the gate of the hotel. Taxis have been banned at both ends of the stadium road. If you want to enter the parking lot, you have to show relevant certificates. The car covered in the innermost circle is actually equivalent to imprisonment. I can't see it in the middle of the night.
Into the main venue. Nearly a quarter of the audience were already sitting in the auditorium, wearing sportswear. Tall and strong men walked around. Many old men with flashing eyes played Tai Chi in practice clothes, and sharp young people practiced in pairs. Some lit up their whirlwind feet and kicked the raised floor guard. In Xu Delong's words, there is no common people here. I don't think anyone can fight.
These people are both peers and competitors. However, martial arts learners are very forthright and send business cards to each other as leaflets. The maximum number of people carried by the team in this competition is recommended to be 50. It can be imagined that if there are about 50 people in each of the nearly 200 teams, it will have to be 10000 people, and the stadium can accommodate 30000 people only if there are no empty seats, but there are no hard and fast rules, because some teams have come more than 100, but some are poor, and only a few people can be flat.
The 200 Yue family soldiers have lined up for admission. They are arranged by the organizing committee. The heroes are sponsored by the local government. It's two different things. I asked the hotel car to take the remaining 100 soldiers and Yan Jingsheng, and they can take the car arranged by the organizing committee when they go back to the ground. I'm saving my heart.
The staff member first gave me the key prepared for me. I went in and had a look. It was quite spacious. It was still inside and outside. There was a machine running. I couldn't notice it outside. Then he led me to the VIP lounge. I've been to the stadium many times. It's the first time I've entered this place. The VIP lounge is actually a hall open to the venue. It is built high above the head of the ordinary audience. There are 100 fixed seats, which are arranged from high to low like the cinema. At the front is a row of sofas and tea tables, with binoculars under each tea table. The whole seat can seat 150 people.
I sat in the first row and looked at it randomly in the field with a telescope. The objects I pay attention to are ignorant. When you observe a person recklessly but he is unconscious, he always seems a little silly. Tut Tut, this is the privileged class. After looking for it for a long time, I'm sorry to find that there are very few women here today, let alone beautiful women. Think about it, the competition is not limited to gender. In fact, it means that this will be the world of men. Now the audience hasn't come in, and there are teams here to compete. Naturally, there won't be any women, even if there are one or two embellishments, If it's not the team doctor who is not confused, it's the wife of a museum owner who is fat and fierce.
A quarter after 7 o'clock, the loudspeaker began to play music, 200 soldiers stood at a certain distance, and each participating team gathered their name cards to prepare for the entrance ceremony. I looked at the table below and guessed that the heroes might be almost there. At 7:30, the horn officially announced the collection of contestant representatives of each team. A staff member knocked on the door and asked, "director Xiao, where is your school team?" I didn't care at first. I just told him to wait.
At a quarter to eight, the audience was almost finished. They sat between the participating teams. I slipped and filled the whole venue, but I didn't have time to find beautiful women. All the other teams were assembled. The staff member came to me twice and stamped his feet. The mayor had come and sat in the lounge. I called the hotel. Their waiter said that the two buses left on time at 6 a.m. and they said to ask me again.
As a result, I called back later. The reply made me feel ashamed. It turned out that the heroes got up too early, felt hungry and discouraged, and were sitting on the fried dough stick stand to have breakfast.
As soon as 8 o'clock arrived, the meeting began on time. On the rostrum were either the president of the martial arts association or the martial arts master of which school. Sure enough, there were several monks and Taoists sitting on the side. Then the chairman of the organizing committee spoke first. The old man was a practicing family. He was full of spirit and crisp. He finished in a few words. Next, it's Mayor Liang, who represents the host. As soon as he finishes speaking, it's time for all the teams to enter. I secretly prayed for him to say more, and ran to the gate of the stadium like an ant on a hot pot, jumping and watching. Within five minutes, Mayor Liang had finished the polite words of welcome and began to thank this and that. At this time, two buses finally roared and rushed in. Through the glass, they could see that the driver's nose was not his nose and face was not his face. This would delay the admission, and they must also bear the responsibility.
Different from them. The heroes all talked and laughed and got off the bus. Some of them were still carrying soybean milk. The 100 soldiers quickly lined up as soon as they got off the bus. Xu Delong and Yan Jingsheng stood at the front. Song Qing stuffed two fried dough sticks and a bag of soybean milk into my hand and said, "all my brothers said you certainly didn't eat it. They brought it for you." The heroes said happily, "yes, yes, eat while it's hot."
I took the hot fried dough sticks and my anger suddenly disappeared. Sigh: "brothers, get ready to enter."
Dong Ping glanced into the stadium. I said, "darling, there are so many people." He saw that the teams were all disciplined. Holding Xu Delong's shoulder, he said, "brother Xu, since he's here, show his face. Let's take the brothers of Yue's army to the entrance. You see, our brothers walk askew and disgrace our school."
Xu Delong said with a smile, "in this case, all heroes, go and have a rest."
I took Xu Delong and 100 Yue's army to the venue and said to them, "just follow everyone later. As the host, we are the last place to play. If you don't understand, ask the brother raising the card. It's our people anyway." I asked Yan Jingsheng, "do you follow me out or go to the lounge first?"
Yan Jingsheng said, "I'll follow you in."
I took all the heroes to the VIP seat. As soon as I took my seat, the admission ceremony began.
Along with the athlete's March, the explanation is also carried out simultaneously: "the first to enter is the team members of Anhui Arong Jingwu Association, which was established in 1978..."
I scratched my head in wonder. As far as I know, many units in this competition have been strongly sponsored by government departments. They have strong economic and political strength, but it's strange why such an unknown team was the first to enter.
I continued to watch with my fried dough sticks. The second place was baiqigou civil and military school in Anhui Province. This was even more outrageous. A few sparse people had rustic clothes and simple and honest looks. Among them, there were several half aged children. At first glance, they had no strength. They gnawed their teeth to join the fun and learn experience. Such a team actually ranked second?
At this time, secretary Liu sneaked in and sat with me for a while. I introduced Lu Junyi and Wu Yong to him and said that they were my deputy team leaders. Secretary Liu was very polite because he realized whether his official fortune was prosperous and whether there was any hope for them in case. Then he asked me if I had any difficulties. I said, "there are no difficulties for the time being, but I don't understand."
At this time, all units in Anhui province finally finished the introduction. Next came the players in Beijing. I wondered, "secretary Liu, how do the athletes rank in the entrance? Why can't I understand?"
Secretary Liu smiled, approached me and whispered, "by letter -"
I patted my head and said, "my head is rusty. I should have thought of it. It's very formal."
Secretary Liu thought of something and said, "by the way, how did you take those photos? It's like jing'er. If you didn't hand them over with the list, you wouldn't see that they were people." I laugh.
After Secretary Liu left, Lu Junyi and Wu used a telescope in their hands and began to point out to the team.
179 teams, of course, are mixed, and their nature is different. There are special martial arts schools, civil and military schools like ours, martial arts schools and martial arts research associations, of which the most elated is the Sanda Research Association. Moreover, the style and momentum are also different. If only two representatives are sent to observe, it will appear lonely; There are hundreds of people like the Chinese sports delegation wearing unified red sportswear. Generally, such teams must have the support of local governments, and their bases are in a VIP seat like us.
I've always been thinking that we have to get the fifth place, so I can't help weighing the strength of these teams in front of me and thinking about which delegation to give proper water. Ironically, there are five "Yucai civil and military schools" in Canada this time, including Shandong Yucai civil and military school, Heilongjiang Yucai civil and military school and Beijing Yucai civil and military college... At first, the audience didn't care, When I went to Datong civil and military school in Shanxi Province, the crowd began to laugh. I suddenly felt that the name was like Wangcai and had no sense of beauty. Lao Zhang doesn't know why he didn't come. Let him see the scene. Hey.
I murmured to Lu Junyi, "I hope these are eliminated in the first round of talent cultivation. If we meet, we can't say anything!"
So because of my words, these "talents" are unlucky.
