Chapter 88: Changing History (6500-character chapter)
International Village, the provincial capital of Yanzhao, is the most provincial capital in the country.
The economy and infrastructure development are average. It has the largest population of any city in the province, but its economy ranks only second. Other cities in the province do not recognize this leader. Anyway, its status is quite embarrassing.
After Ma Xiaolong and his party arrived in the provincial capital, Coach Zhou, who had received the news in advance, had already booked a hotel for them. It was only a few hundred meters away from the stadium and only a ten-minute walk away.
"You settle down with your family first. I will take you to pick up sports equipment in the afternoon and then get familiar with the competition track." After Ma Xiaolong and others checked into the room, Coach Zhou warned.
Ma Xiaolong nodded: "Sorry to trouble you, Coach Zhou."
"As long as you can win the championship, I can do anything you want." Coach Zhou said.
Ma Xiaolong chuckled: "Don't worry, the 100-meter champion didn't run. If I work hard at the 200-meter, I should be able to do it."
Coach Zhou patted him on the shoulder: "I'll pick you up at three o'clock in the afternoon."
"good."
After seeing off Coach Zhou, Ma Xiaolong went to another room.
Coach Zhou booked two rooms for him, a quadruple room and a double room. Grandma shared a room with Ma Xiaofeng, Chen Jun and Dai Yu, and Ma Xiaolong and Zhusha shared a room.
Grandma and a few girls were standing in front of the window and looking out.
This is the sixth floor, and the view is quite good. You can see modern buildings and the construction site under construction.
Ma Xiaofeng looked at it for a few times before looking away: "This is what the International Village is like, it's not as good as the capital!"
Isn’t this nonsense!
Grandma chuckled and said, "I think it's pretty good, better than our hometown."
This is also nonsense.
Dai Yu looked at the stadium and said, "The stadium looks quite big, but I don't know what it's like inside?"
"Would you like to go take a look this afternoon?" Ma Xiaolong walked in and said.
"Xiaolong, have you finished talking to Coach Zhou?" Grandma asked.
"Well, come pick me up at three o'clock in the afternoon to pick up the competition equipment, and go to the stadium to familiarize yourself with the track." After a pause, Ma Xiaolong said to Dai Yu: "If nothing happens, come with me to the stadium to have a look!"
"Okay, okay!" Ma Xiaofeng said quickly: "I haven't been to the stadium yet! I want to go."
"I want to see it too." After a slight pause, Dai Yu asked, "You won't cause any trouble to Coach Zhou, right?"
"No." Ma Xiaolong said: "There is only one football match in the stadium in the afternoon. Without delaying my familiarity with the venue, you can also watch a football match for free."
Speaking of football matches, next month will be the top ten matches of the World Cup Asian qualifiers. The National Football Team will play Yin Lang at home. The result of this game is very miserable. The National Football Team was leading by two goals and was defeated by Yin Lang with four consecutive goals.
, it is really causing trouble for Chinese fans.
But to be honest, the strength of this national football team is very strong. As long as it exerts its full strength, the probability of entering the World Cup is very high. It is a pity that the coaching ability of the national team is insufficient. Not only is the formation ability average, but the on-the-spot reaction is extremely poor.
Not to mention the psychological quality, which has always been a long-standing problem for the national football team. From top to bottom, no one has good psychological quality.
In the end, the national football team failed to break through in this top ten match, but fans who are familiar with the game process know that in fact, the national football team really has a chance to enter the World Cup directly as the first place in the group. As long as the penultimate game against Saudi Arabia, Fan Da
The general kicked the penalty kick.
In his last life, Ma Xiaolong became a fan from this top ten game, but he lost to Qatar 2:3 at home.
For the first time, he experienced the feeling of having his dreams shattered.
I still remember that the game was in the afternoon. Many boys in their class brought radios to the classroom and plugged in their headphones to listen to the game secretly. Not many people listened to what the teacher said. Then when the goal was scored at the peak of the first half, everyone
The class was in an uproar, and the teacher was so angry that he left the classroom and stopped teaching.
But the situation in the game changed suddenly after that. Qatar scored three goals in a row, which directly sent Ma Xiaolong from heaven to hell. He could not recover for several days.
At that time, he thought that the national football team was finished, but a week later, after the national football team tied with Saudi Arabia 1:1, he realized belatedly that if General Fan had scored the penalty kick in that game, the national football team would have climbed to the top.
Ranked first in the group, and defeated Kuwait normally in the last game, and can directly enter the World Cup.
Many years later, in summarizing that top ten tournament, the national football team lost not because of a lack of strength, but because of their mentality.
In fact, in the top ten competition in 2001, the strength of the national football team was no different from that in 1997. The only difference was that the national football team had Milu who instilled the concept of happy football into the national football team.
"..." Ma Xiaolong began to think about this matter.
…
In the afternoon, Coach Zhou came, and the group of people who took a nap followed him to the stadium.
After Ma Xiaolong went to collect his sports equipment, he walked to the stands under the leadership of coach Zhou.
At this time, there were already many spectators sitting in the stadium, all coming to watch the football match.
I have to say that the football atmosphere in this era is really good. Even though it is only a provincial football match, there are still seven or eight thousand fans sitting in the stands. However, the strength of the two city teams is really not that good. Although the football match is quite fierce.
, but the technique was very rough, including all kinds of tackles and jerk-offs. At the end of the first half, the score was still 0:0.
During the halftime break, Coach Zhou took Ma Xiaolong down to the stands to get familiar with the track.
Ma Xiaolong did not change into sports equipment, he was still wearing a T-shirt, shorts and sneakers.
To be honest, this was the first time for Ma Xiaolong to stand on such a good track. The school's shabby playground was incomparable.
"Run and see." Coach Zhou said: "Don't exert too much force, just do a proper warm-up run."
"Okay." Ma Xiaolong started jogging on the track. He stepped on the track and felt that the grip was quite strong. There was absolutely no need to worry about slipping. This also ensured that the athletes could perform their best without any distractions.
When Ma Xiaolong was jogging, some spectators in the front row happened to see him. The men were fine, but the young female spectators couldn't take their eyes away after seeing his face and figure.
"Hey, Xiao Cui, look, there is a handsome guy."
"Where is it? Where is it?"
"Well, look at that handsome boy, wow! He's so handsome."
"Eh? He's so handsome, wow! This face, this neck, and these legs are so sexy~"
The cameraman not far from them heard their conversation and subconsciously moved the camera to the track beside the field. Then all the spectators saw Ma Xiaolong warming up.
The cameraman pushed a close-up, and the large screen displayed clearly. There was a burst of "Wow" exclamations from the sidelines, and the eyes of all the female audience were attracted.
So handsome!
In the stands, Zhu Sha and the others were stunned when they saw the picture on the big screen. Seeing that all the female audience members were in a state of ecstasy, the girls suddenly looked at each other.
Under the influence of Ma Xiaolong's one mind and six functions, the other five minds noticed the changes in the scene. They turned their heads and glanced at the big screen, and were stunned for a moment. This stunned feeling suddenly gave off a cute feeling, which instantly inspired the entire female audience.
girlish heart.
"Wow! He is so cute!"
"Husband~"
"Go away! He is my husband!"
"Get out of here, you dare to steal my husband, sisters won't have to do it in the future!"
"Who are you? I don't know you!"
"you--"
"..."
On the track, Coach Zhou also noticed something was wrong. After seeing the changes on the scene, he quickly greeted Ma Xiaolong and walked to the athletes' tunnel.
"Ah? Husband, don't leave!"
"Damn it, who is that old man who called my husband away? I want to kill him!"
"Give me back my husband!"
The commentator on the scene realized that the atmosphere was not right, and quickly played music to soothe the emotions of the female audience. At the same time, people were asked to find out who the handsome guy was who was warming up on the sidelines? He looked a bit like an athlete participating in the competition, but his face was very...
Young, probably no more than 18 years old, I don’t know what you are training for?
In the stands, Dai Yu bumped Zhu Sha with her elbow and asked with a bit of teasing: "Isn't it stressful to have a handsome husband?"
Zhusha chuckled lightly: "There is some pressure, but only with pressure can there be motivation. I will work hard to make him unable to leave me."
"..." Dai Yu sighed, with some sympathy in his eyes: "Come on, I will support you."
Zhu Sha hugged her and said, "She is my sister after all. My sister is so touched."
"Hmm--"
Ma Xiaofeng saw all the women in the audience going crazy for her brother. Suddenly she shrank back to her grandma in fear and said, "Grandma, look at those women, they seem to want to eat my brother."
Grandma frowned and sighed: "If these women dared to be so shameless a few decades ago, they would have been paraded through the streets."
"Wow! That's even scarier."
"..."
Chen Jun watched the women's reactions silently, thoughtfully.
…
In the athletes' tunnel, a staff member quickly came over and asked about the identities of Coach Zhou and Ma Xiaolong.
"I am the coach of the provincial track and field team, my surname is Zhou, and these are my team members, sprinters who will participate in the men's 100-meter and 200-meter competitions tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Coach Zhou took out his coaching certificate and admission pass.
"I see." The staff member's attitude became much kinder and he confirmed again: "The 100 meters tomorrow and the 200 meters the day after tomorrow, right?"
"Yes." Coach Zhou nodded.
"Okay." The staff member remembered this and finally asked Ma Xiaolong a question: "Young man, what is your name?"
"Me?" Ma Xiaolong pointed at himself.
"Yes, it's you." The staff member nodded.
"Ma Xiaolong."
"Ma Xiaolong? What a good name." The staff member smiled and said, "I wish you good results in the next two days."
"Thanks."
After the staff left, Ma Xiaolong said: "Coach Zhou, do you believe that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the stadium will be full? And most of the spectators will be women?"
"..." Coach Zhou was speechless.
In the studio, after receiving the information submitted by the staff, the on-site commentator immediately turned on the loudspeaker and said: "Dear viewers, after the efforts of our staff, I have now obtained the basic information of the handsome guy. Please calm down.
Come down and listen to my story."
The female audience at the scene suddenly became quiet. There were male audience members nearby who were making loud noises. They glared at them fiercely, and they suddenly did not dare to say anything.
The commentator said: "According to the information we currently have, the handsome guy who was training just now is named Ma Xiaolong. He is a participating athlete in the men's 100m and 200m sprints in this event. And tomorrow and the next two days, it will be the men's 100m and 200m sprints."
In the preliminaries and finals, spectators who like sprinting are welcome to come and watch the competition, thank you all."
"Wow! It turns out that my husband's name is Ma Xiaolong. It's such a good name."
"No wonder the legs are so long. They were originally used for running."
"There is a game tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? Okay! I must come to watch the game."
"Honey, wait for me, I will come with my camera tomorrow."
"..."
Although the female spectators at the scene were no longer crazy, they were not in the mood to watch the second half of the game. They left the field one after another to check the time of the game tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. When the players from the two teams returned to the game, they saw that there were few people in the stands.
Many female fans were stunned.
Without the encouragement of the young female spectators, the players of the two teams also lost their fighting spirit. The second half ended with a mediocre 0:0 amid the curses of many male fans.
This game was not interesting, but the off-field turmoil caused by Ma Xiaolong made many tabloid reporters excited. Many tabloid reporters ran to the stands to interview the female spectators and asked questions related to Bruce Ma.
These female audience members immediately expressed their thoughts enthusiastically, but their comments were not very serious.
"Brother Ma is so handsome. I have never seen such a handsome boy in my whole life. I will definitely come to support him in the games tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Bruce Ma, you are my husband, I love you!"
"Bah! Shameless, that's my husband!"
"You are shameless! I already have a child with my husband."
"Bah! You don't even look at your own virtue, are you worthy of it!?"
"That's better than you, fat woman!"
"You dare to call me fat woman? I'll fight you!"
"Ouch! If you dare to hit me, look at my hand holding the milk dragon's claw!"
"Monkey steals peach!"
"Hey, don't do it, don't do it! Damn it..."
The tabloid reporter who was affected by Chi Yu fled the scene in embarrassment.
…
In the evening, Ma Xiaolong and his party returned to the hotel. Coach Zhou told Ma Xiaolong to try not to eat meat in the past two days to avoid accidentally taking stimulants.
Now and in the next twenty or thirty years, everyone knows the quality and virtue of meat. Many outstanding athletes have been disqualified just because they ate a bowl of beef noodles before the competition.
Although the inspections at the provincial games were not that strict, in order to ensure nothing went wrong, Coach Zhou still put forward the strictest requirements for Ma Xiaolong and gave him a recipe for the next few days.
Ma Xiaolong looked at the full page of 'Vegetarian Banquet' and said with a wry smile: "Coach Zhou, are you sure you want me to eat? Not feed the sheep?"
"Just bear with it!" Coach Zhou said: "Just two or three days, the patience will be over. Besides, isn't there chicken breast!"
"...Okay!" Chicken breast is better than turtle essence.
After Coach Zhou left, Ma Xiaofeng was very happy, with a treacherous expression on her face.
"Why are you so happy?" Ma Xiaolong frowned.
Ma Xiaofeng chuckled and said, "I see, brother, you can't eat meat in the next two days, right?"
"I just can't eat red meat. Chicken is fine." Ma Xiaolong said.
"Hey hey hey..."
For dinner, Ma Xiaofeng ordered several meat dishes, including braised pork, twice-cooked pork, Sixi meatballs, Dongpo pork, and the most annoying thing, there were two big elbows.
Seeing Ma Xiaofeng hugging her elbows and devouring food, clicking her tongue, and then looking at the nutritious meal in front of her, Ma Xiaolong felt bad.
However, Zhusha and the others ate the meat with smiles and kept saying, "It's delicious!"
“It smells so good!”
“So delicious!”
"Fat but not greasy, it melts in your mouth and is delicious."
Seeing that all these girls looked ugly, grandma felt sorry for her eldest grandson, so she took a piece of Dongpo meat and put it into Ma Xiaolong's bowl: "Xiaolong, ignore them, we eat meat too."
"..."
Ma Xiaolong was about to cry but had no tears: Grandma, my dear grandma, do you love me? Or are you trying to punish me?
That night, Ma Xiaolong had nowhere to vent his anger, so he went back to the room and gave Zhusha a good beating, and then he calmed down his anger.
…
Late at night, Ma Xiaolong put on a baseball cap and a mask and left the hotel, took a taxi to a nearby Internet cafe.
Although it is already late at night, the Internet cafe is still open for business as usual, with seven or eight people booking the night.
During this period, the newly emerging Internet cafes tended to replace game arcades. Many young people no longer preferred game arcades, but came to Internet cafes to chat, play games, listen to music, and read news.
Without exception, they are all industries created by Ma Xiaolong. The stand-alone games are basically Legend of Sword and Fairy, Angry Birds, Plants vs. Zombies, and two online games just launched during the summer vacation, one is "Kart Run" and the other
It's "Audition."
Once these two games were launched, they conquered countless male and female netizens. Now in the Internet cafe, there are male netizens who stay overnight playing go-karts, and two young girls who stay overnight playing Audition.
Fortunately for Audition, after all, compared to male netizens, there are only a minority of female netizens. Once Go Kart was launched, it instantly set off a kart craze in Internet cafes across the country.
The cute Q-version characters and various cute karts have inspired the girlish hearts of countless male netizens. Coupled with the first-class BGM and various sound effects, it is simply the ultimate racing game that all male netizens dream of.
In time for the summer vacation, many teenagers who have pocket money in their hands flock to Internet cafes. Even though the Internet fee in Internet cafes is now as high as five yuan an hour, countless teenagers still flock to Internet cafes, just to find their own happiness in the karting arena.
.
Ma Xiaolong is not afraid of parents finding trouble. After all, karting is a cute game, and it does not allow children to charge money, nor does it promote violence. Just because it is fun, parents want to ban it? You are thinking too much.
Of course, if there is a competitor who deliberately slanders me, don't be afraid. He is now a patriotic comrade who has been guaranteed by his superiors. Tonight, he is here to exercise his privileges.
After requesting a private room, Ma Xiaolong walked into the private room with two cans of ice tea and sent an email.
On the other side, someone who had been paying attention to the mailbox found an email from Ma Xiaolong, and immediately shouted excitedly: "Comrade Patriot has sent an email!"
There was a sudden uproar at the scene, and everyone gathered around: "What did Comrade Patriot post?"
"Don't worry, just open it now." After opening the email, everyone was stunned and looked at each other: "This..."
The content of this email is very short, only a few sentences: "I am a football fan, and the top ten games will start next month, but I do not trust our coaching staff. I hope the country can immediately invite Milu as a national football player."
The head coach, and issued a fatal order to give Milu the greatest privilege, allowing him to take charge and direct the top ten games of the national football team. I believe he can lead the Chinese men's football team to the World Cup."
"Who is Milu?" None of the people present were fans and had never heard of the amazing coach's name.
"Ask! Check! Then... do it according to the requirements of the patriotic comrades." The leader came in and said seriously: "The patriotic comrades have made too many contributions to the country. This small request must be made."
Satisfy him."
"clear!"
The leader is very happy now. Ma Xiaolong has given so many gifts to the country before that none of the people above can withstand them. Everyone knows what these contributions mean. It is no longer a matter of reviving China, it is completely
We want China to conquer the whole world and march into the stars and the sea.
If nothing else, let’s just say that this space gravity chamber technology directly solves the problem of astronauts living in space. With the space gravity chamber, astronauts can live in the spacecraft just like they do on earth, without having to live in space at all.
Working and living in a weightless environment is a technology that not even the Mi Li family has. Now scientific research institutes are working hard to test it. Once it is produced and verified, it will directly take China's aerospace technology to a huge level.
steps.
The country will never be stingy in repaying the heroes who have made such huge contributions to the country. Now they just want to change the coach of the national football team. Compared with those contributions, this reward is insignificant.
But being able to repay Ma Xiaolong made the leader very happy. As the saying goes, courtesy reciprocates, Ma Xiaolong has given so many benefits to the country, of course the country must give back to a certain extent, and although this feedback is not much, it is quite timely.
From then on, they faced Ma Xiaolong again and finally had the confidence to speak.
Under full investigation, a document about Milu soon appeared in the hands of the leader.
After reading Milu's amazing resume, the leader was amazed. At the same time, he agreed a little more with Ma Xiaolong's request for a coaching change: "Okay! Send someone to invite Milu immediately, and be sure to show the greatest sincerity. If Milu doesn't come,
, don’t come back either!”
"..."
He had a mouth on top, but a broken leg on the bottom. On the same day, someone flew to Mexico.
Why Mexico? Because Milu is now the head coach of Mexico.
When Huaxia staff contacted Milu and extended the invitation with the utmost sincerity, Milu was moved by Huaxia's sincerity and immediately resigned from the Mexican Football Association. Then he flew to China overnight and officially became the head coach of the national football team.
This change was so fast and outrageous that the head coach and coaching team of the national football team were confused, but they had received orders from above, and the people above personally came out to cheer Milu on, making the coaching staff afraid
Explode thorns.
As for the players of the national football team, although they don't understand it, after all, according to the Chinese concept, it is very unlucky to change the coach on the spot.
The coach was replaced.
Although the new head coach is an internationally renowned miraculous coach, Schlapner's experience of cheating and abduction in the past few years has made them very skeptical of Milutin's reputation.
After Milu took office, when facing the national team players, he did not let them run any 10,000-meter race, but allowed them to move freely.
This makes the national football players who are accustomed to the patriarchal management model look confused, but they have to listen to the head coach's words. They can only run circles by themselves or bounce the ball in place. Anyway, all the activities they do are very boring.
"..." Milu touched his chin, a hint of understanding flashed in his wise eyes.
In the next half month, Milu began to teach the national football players how to play football happily. The formal training every day was just a moderate amount. Most of the time was spent playing games to appease and adjust the players' mental state. This situation continued until
The first game of the Big Ten Tournament.
Before the game started, Milu said to the national football players: "Boys, let's enjoy this game at our home court! You will become the pride and hero of the entire China, dig Mo!"
"Dig Mo!"
The national football players took to the field with a completely different spirit than in history. At the end of the 90-minute game, the national football team won the game 2:0, without allowing the tragedy of a major reversal to occur.
This is something to say later, so I won’t mention it for now.
Let’s say that on the morning of August 10, Ma Xiaolong came to the competition venue, changed into sports equipment, and stood on the track for the 100-meter preliminaries.
