1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 130 Decathlon!

There is really nothing worth saying about the opening ceremony of the sports meet. We have all experienced it in elementary and middle school.

The current format is more old-fashioned, with speeches, reviews, slogans and so on.

In fact, Xia didn’t want to go at first, because it was too embarrassing to go to the sports meet by myself - and I was in the junior group, under 18 years old.

But no!
Nowadays, we especially value collectivism. The collective will help you and tolerate you, and you have to stand up when the collective needs you.

You can't say: No, I won't go, you guys find someone else!

What is popular now is to create difficulties even if there are none. If you are so passive, a group of people will really talk to you and help you get out of your "confusion"!

Besides, Xia Tian has to give the school and the district face, right? !
As the sports committee member, you are also a serious cadre, right? You should also make some contributions!
This means the organization trusts you!

That’s right, not only do I have to represent the school, I also have to represent Dongcheng in competitions in the summer.

I took a last look at it in the summer and realized that I had signed up for seven projects!
I am Cao~
If you catch a toad, are you going to squeeze the urine out of it?

I can’t do it all by myself!

The leader said to Xia Tian earnestly, "Xia, we know that the burden on your shoulders is a bit heavy. But this sports meeting is different. The standard is very high. Our district attaches great importance to it..."

"Those who are capable should do more work. I hope you can help us win honors! If you have any difficulties, just let us know! The organization will definitely help you solve them!"

Now that things have come to this, we have to go ahead even if we have no choice.

For the collective honor!
For the tribe~
In the tower in!

Xia Tian simply put forward a condition: "In order to maintain my condition, I need more time to train. I hope I can talk to the school and have more time!"

"Okay, I'll talk to your principal. Just focus on training."

That's fine, I got a few days of "holiday"~
As a result, it wasn’t over yet, Coach Liu came!
"Coach, you too?"

"Hey~ you guessed it right! The Children's Palace needs you. This sword show must be performed by you!"

When I counted them at the end of the summer, there were ten items! Ten items in total!

There's nothing so crazy about work, right?!
……

The scale of this sports meet is very large.

Track and field, swimming, diving, gymnastics, football, basketball, volleyball, table tennis, badminton, weightlifting, martial arts, wrestling, fencing, judo, bridge, cycling, chess, shooting...

There are even aviation models, nautical models, radio direction finding, and motorcycles!

There are 26 projects in total.

The contestants came from 19 districts, counties, colleges and universities, and Yenching Sports Institute, totaling nearly people!

It is said that it will take two or three months!

After two days in the stands in the summer, it was his turn.

Track and field events, and three of them!

In the summer, I wore the newly bought white Warrior running shoes - at that time, having a pair of Warrior shoes was already a very popular trendsetter symbol among teenagers.

Add a pair of red shorts with gold edges - the two long white legs are very eye-catching!
She is several shades whiter than the athletes next to her.

Even the referee on the side was staring at him, and the two athletes next to him also glanced at him - Damn, we are all track and field athletes, why are you so white? !

People who practice sports are exposed to the sun and rain every day and tend to be darker.

In summer, I am much whiter than ordinary people. This comparison makes me even more proud!
At first glance, I thought it was Xia Tian fighting alone against seven African players!
Some were confused: "Brother, are you in the wrong group? This is the youth group!"
"Ready~bang!"

Xia Tian saw white smoke coming out of the opposing referee's starting gun, and he rushed out!

This period of time was not just a holiday, just to accompany Milan, Holly and the others to travel around - he really practiced and learned professional movements from the coach of the sports school~
With this sudden rush, he left the other players several steps behind.

In the summer, I felt that the strong wind was blowing my half-long hair back!

He had never run so hard before!
hurry up! Hurry up!

It seemed like the second half was only a few seconds away!
It was only when Xia Tian saw the colorful ribbon at the finish line that he realized something was wrong.

He looked back at the other contestants and saw that they were all quite far behind. He breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down.

In the end, he still crossed the finish line first and won first place in the group...

Track and field events are always popular. When someone crosses the finish line in summer, countless people around the stadium cheer and applaud.

Compared to those unpopular sports, track and field is really popular~
Xia Tian also heard the referee say to the person next to him: "What a pity! This guy started really fast! He was far behind the others. He was also very fast in the middle, but unfortunately he didn't have the stamina. He was just a little bit away from breaking the record!"

"Which college does he belong to?"

"East Tenth Middle School."

"East Tenth Middle School?"

The coach was a little confused. How come I have never heard of this sports school? Is there a sports school in Yanjing that I don’t know about?!

“It’s a normal high school.”

When the coach heard the word "high school", he suddenly realized what was going on and turned to look at Xia Tian: That's not right! I remember this was the junior group? These are the juniors?!
Is there anyone running for me?!

As it turned out, Xia Tian was indeed a teenager, having just turned 17, and still one year from adulthood.

Soon, snap~
In the summer, I won the 100m junior championship. It was as easy as the group stage, and I crushed them in the next two rounds.

And he controlled it very well, so it wasn't so violent as to break the record.

He is also afraid of being caught and forced to become an athlete!
Today, in addition to the 100 meters, there was also the 200 meters, and Xia also won the championship.

Two medals a day~
This made Dachun envious, and he almost drooled at the sight of it - he didn't become an athlete, but he did become a cheerleader, specializing in playing drums~
As a result, because he was weak and looked like he was about to die, he was scolded by the head teacher, who said that he was trying to back out!

After the game, the friends gathered together and congratulated Xia Tian.

The next day, Xia Tian also won first place in the 800-meter race, still without any pressure.

At this time, many people noticed him.

Although many old coaches think that Xia Tian’s body type is not an advantage in sprinting—too tall—but who can blame him for being fast?
Then another day passed and summer participated in the shot put event again.

There was a little accident this time.

When running, you can look back at any time and adjust if you are running too fast.

Coach: Why does this kid keep turning his head? Is he getting a stiff neck from sleeping?
But shot put doesn’t work!

You have to use a lot of force for this thing; there's no way to fine-tune it.

Xia Tian exerted so much force that he almost pushed the shot put out of bounds, scaring away the person marking the result - Oh no, the shot put was coming for me!

As a result, Xia Tian accidentally broke the record.

Among all the big-bodied shot put athletes, Xia Tian is the slimmest.

When receiving the medals, the two runners-up and third place winners on the left and right looked up at Xia Tian with strange eyes - the champion's podium is the highest~
Then comes the 5,000 meters, first.

Long jump, first.

High jump, first.

Table tennis, number one.

Go, first.

Sword show, first place!

It can be said that Xia Tian swept the entire junior group.

He signed up for ten events and won first place in all ten.

The district leader was so proud that everyone greeted him during the meeting...

He: "Ah, you mean our decathlon? Yes, yes, our guys from East City are pretty good~"

"Who asked you?"

"Ah, which ten items did you say? Let me introduce them to you~"

In less than twenty days, Xia Tian completed the mission and retired with honor.

The following are all small events, such as swimming, which require special venues.

The early heat of the sports meet has passed, and Holly and her father are about to return to Hong Kong.

Xia Tian and Milan went to see Holly off to the airport. Before leaving, Holly gave Xia Tian a Mandarin LP of Baodao's "Zhihuzheya" by Luo Dayou.

She also made an agreement with Xia Tian that if they had the chance to go to Hong Kong, she would entertain Xia Tian and Milan.

At this time, Xia Tian already understood the purpose of Huo Sheng's trip.

I still read the newspaper and think about some things in the future - in September we will negotiate with the Iron Lady on the Hong Kong issue.

Huo Shenglai must be related to this matter, and he may have informed his superiors.

Mr. Huo's patriotism is beyond doubt, and he was buried with state honors...

However, Huo Sheng also has his own limitations - he has some old-fashioned ideas.

Although she is the eldest son in the family, her daughter is not allowed to show her face in public.

The children of the second and third wives were also forbidden from engaging in business, and even the wives were not allowed to show their faces in public...

But after his death, his family went to court over the family property, which was a pity.

With Mr. Huo's favor, I wonder if he can make something bigger in Hong Kong in the next few years?

On the way back, Xia Tian took Milan's hand and shook it, saying, "Don't worry."

Xia Tian saw that she didn't speak and was worried that she would worry about Holly.

But Milan wasn't worried at all, she knew Xia Tian better than Xia Tian thought - you wouldn't have any emotional involvement with such a troublesome woman.

I don't know what you're thinking, but you seem to have long-term plans.

However, she was still very happy to have earned a "don't worry"...
