After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ma Qiangsheng took Ma Xiaofeng back to the capital, and Ma Xiaolong's life also entered a state where school was the main focus.
In the past few days, the fans and students in the school have been in a very good mood. Last Saturday, the national football team defeated Iran 2-0 at home, getting a good start in the top ten and giving the national football team a good start in entering the World Cup.
Milu, who is called a miracle coach, has also become a celebrity sought after by the domestic media. He is praised and licked in all kinds of ways, and he has the potential to become a god.
After all, people in this era have too low self-esteem, and their admiration for foreigners has been engraved in their bones. This situation only gradually began to change after the bombing of the museum in 1999.
After all, the economic base determines the superstructure. Let’s develop the economy first and then talk about other things!
In class, Ma Xiaolong was writing and drawing on A4 paper. Zhu Sha looked at it and couldn't understand it at all. He only knew that it was a technology for manufacturing batteries, and it seemed to be called something like graphene.
The teacher on the podium had no dissatisfaction with Ma Xiaolong openly doing other things in class. In any era and in any place, a super genius who never loses points in exams is privileged.
Ma Xiaolong has won for himself the privilege of not listening in class since he was in elementary school, and this privilege continued in junior high school. Although he did not listen in class and was always doing his own thing, teachers of any subject had no objections. These teachers had seen Ma Xiaolong
What they do in class is basically studying technological issues that they don't understand.
They were surprised at first, and even discussed relevant issues with Ma Xiaolong after class, but basically it was just the beginning, and they could only sit across from Ma Xiaolong and be good students.
I don’t understand it at all. Is it possible?
What junior high school students are studying, they, the teachers, don’t understand? Not only is it a loss of face, but it also makes them look special. From then on, the teachers of various subjects who were hit hard just let Ma Xiaolong go.
Anyway, he got full marks in every exam, so what's there to worry about? Sometimes I even wish that Ma Xiaolong would do more scientific research. If he becomes a great inventor in the future, teachers like them will also have face, right?
On this day, when Ma Xiaolong was in class, he found that the male student who was the worst in the class did not come to school. After asking his classmate, his classmate said that he had taken half a day off and would come back to school in the afternoon.
Ma Xiaolong didn't pay attention, but in the afternoon, when the male classmate came to the classroom, he greeted his classmates with a smile, then took out a brand new notebook and started asking the whole class to take turns writing blessings to him.
Seeing this scene, Ma Xiaolong was stunned for a moment, stood up and walked to the male classmate: "Feng Jie, what's the matter with you?"
"Monitor." Feng Jie is 1.70 meters tall, has a square face, is strong and strong, but he is not good at studying. He has been the weakest person in the class since the first grade of junior high school. Even with Ma Xiaolong and Dai Yu taking the lead, he has worked hard.
He passed, but he is still at the bottom of his class, and with his academic performance, it is very difficult to get into high school.
Feng Jie smiled broadly and said, "I'm going to be a soldier."
"Be a soldier!?" Ma Xiaolong was stunned.
"Yes." Feng Jie nodded and said, "I completed the physical examination this morning and passed the test."
"...You're not old enough!" Ma Xiaolong said.
"Haha, my household registration book says I am three years older." Feng Jie said with a smile: "When my father registered my household registration, he considered letting me get married early in the future. According to the household registration book, I am now over 18 years old, so I can
Become a soldier."
It is true that more than ten years ago, when parents registered their children for household registration, many of them would give their children one to three years of age. After all, the legal age for marriage is too high for people in small places and rural areas.
By giving more information on how old you are, you can get girls married when they are seventeen or eighteen and boys in their twenties.
Of course, some people will hold a wedding banquet for their children first, give birth to the children first, and then when they are old enough, they will get the certificate and register the children.
Ma Xiaolong suffered a loss in this regard. When Ma Qiangsheng registered his household registration, he reported his real age. If, like Feng Jie, he had reported three years older, he would have made Ma Qiangsheng two years ago.
I have returned to my hometown to raise pigs. And I can take the driver’s license test this summer.
Alas! Dad, why didn’t you know to give me an extra three years?
Ma Xiaolong sighed and pulled him: "Stand up."
"???" Although he was confused, Feng Jie stood up.
The next moment, Ma Xiaolong gave him a hug and patted his back hard: "I won't say anything more. I wish you a bright future."
"..." Feng Jie had mixed feelings in his heart and punched him on the back several times: "Fuck! You want to slap me to death!?"
"Haha, mistake, mistake."
With a smile on my face, I sighed in my heart, my classmates who haven't graduated from junior high school are going to join the army. Time flies so fast.
The notebook was quickly passed to him. Looking at the blessings written by many classmates in front of him, Ma Xiaolong thought for a while and wrote a blessing on it: "Be a good soldier and don't embarrass your fellow soldiers. Come on."
He handed it to Zhusha casually. Zhusha was not familiar with Feng Jie, so he casually wrote a snake oil-like blessing and handed it to the front row.
At the end of the afternoon class, Feng Jie put on his schoolbag, took the blessings of the whole class, left the campus, and embarked on his own future.
…
After today's training was completed, Ma Xiaolong, Zhu Sha and Dai Yu sat in the stands and ate steaming big meat buns. The meat buns were bought by Dai Yu outside the school. Since Ma Xiaolong started practicing sprinting, she would have dinner with them every day.
.
Taking a bite of the big meat bun, Dai Yu said: "It's such a pity for Feng Jie. He still has one year left. If he gives it a try at the end, he may not be able to pass the high school entrance examination."
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions and cannot be forced to do so." Ma Xiaolong unscrewed the thermos cup, took a sip of hot water, and said, "Feng Jie spent two years proving that he is not suitable for school. It is human nature to choose another path. Don't look at him.
He’s not tall, but he has a good physique and a lot of strength, so he might be able to work in the army in the future.”
"I also hope that every classmate can have a good future in the future." Dai Yu said: "But he is only fifteen years old. Is it too early to become a soldier?"
"Do you think he is the only one who reported his age too much?" Ma Xiaolong said: "Don't worry! There are many child soldiers in the army who are fifteen or sixteen years old. After their three-year service is over, most of them can find jobs when they return to the local area. This is also a good thing.
Plant a way out.”
"Haha~ My dad said that those who serve as soldiers are useless." Zhu Sha said: "You can't make much money even if you are a soldier for three years. You might as well go to the construction site to move bricks."
Zhusha is not discriminating against soldiers, but soldiers in this era are generally considered to be worthless by the society. Since the beginning of all-out efforts to develop the economy, the status of soldiers in the country has plummeted. People used to think that being a soldier was glorious, but now, soldiers are
If you don't fight, the training will be just that, and the equipment will be poor. It will not highlight the importance of soldiers at all. In today's society, everything is based on money. Gradually, there are people who are "unprofitable as soldiers" in society.
Thoughts and speech.
This situation was not until after Mi Li's family bombed Iraq that Rabbit was shocked to realize his lack of armaments and began to increase investment in armaments. Ordinary people also realized the importance of soldiers. From then on, the status of soldiers began to improve.
"Although the country is big, if you are warlike, you will perish. Although the world is safe, if you forget to fight, you will be in danger." Ma Xiaolong said: "Don't look down on soldiers. The security of our country and the lives and property of the people must be protected by them. But you reminded me.
Well, I will send someone to contact the army later and donate some supplies to the army to improve the living environment of the army."
"What do you want to donate?" Cinnabar asked.
"Beds, tents, bedding, food, etc. By the way, I will design a few new military uniforms later and ask my sister-in-law to discuss with the army and update the army with new uniforms at a low price." Ma Xiaolong said.
"You can even design military uniforms?" Zhu Sha just asked, then she came back to her senses and shook her head: "I shouldn't doubt you."
Seeing that she took the initiative to realize her mistake, Ma Xiaolong smiled and said: "You can always trust me when it comes to fashion design."
"Haha, are there any uniforms for female soldiers?" Cinnabar asked.
"That must be there." Ma Xiaolong said: "The women's clothing of the navy, land and air force, as well as the militia, police force, etc. are all wrapped on my body. Now our domestic military uniforms are too vulgar. I will change into the military uniforms I designed to ensure that
Each of them has a heroic appearance, and their charm instantly increases by three levels."
Zhusha blinked and said, "After the design is completed, how about I be the model?"
"You must be a model." Ma Xiaolong extended his thumbs up and said, "With your figure, it would be a pity not to wear a military uniform."
Zhu Sha smiled like a flower: "I think so too."
"..." Dai Yu sighed: "I can't do it, I'm too thin."
"It's still the lack of exercise." Zhu Sha stuffed her with a meat bun: "Eat more, and I will teach you how to exercise later. It will take up to three years, and I guarantee that you will become as strong as me."
Dai Yu glanced at her mountain range and shook his head: "I don't think it's possible."
"..."
…
On September 26, the national football team defeated Qatar 2:1 in an away game and won two consecutive victories in the top ten matches. In one fell swoop, they occupied the top spot in the group and their prospects for qualifying became increasingly brighter.
Domestic fans are celebrating the holidays again. In the past few days, the school has been full of discussions about the prospects of the national football team entering the World Cup. As a senior fan who was heartbroken by the national football team in his previous life, Ma Xiaolong has also been paying close attention to the national football team during this period. Seeing the national football team in
After scoring six points in the first two games of the top ten games, five points more than the original score in history, I knew in my heart that it would be basically no problem to enter the World Cup finals this time.
Apart from being happy, he was also grateful for the electromagnetic ability he had obtained before finishing the second year of junior high school. Relying on the electromagnetic ability, he could sneak into any computer directly along the network cable without any need for cracking. If it were not for this ability, he would not have been able to do so.
It is impossible to hook up with the people above, nor will he use his own 'contributions' to achieve the achievement of changing coaches.
From TV, newspapers, and computers, he saw various reports of domestic fans rejoicing. It was all so wonderful. However, he knew that the domestic football system had big problems, especially at the grassroots level. Many children from poor families wanted to play.
The ball cannot be afforded just by the various expensive fees, which directly hinders the emergence of countless Chinese Messis and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Now that he has decided to change the fate of the national football team, he has also begun to wonder how to change the Chinese football system.
Campus football? As long as the college entrance examination only focuses on scores in cultural courses, campus football will never be possible.
Football schools? Those are only for children from rich families. Children from poor families don’t even think about it.
The Football Association is making a fuss! It was originally designed to overthrow it.
The Sports Bureau is directly under the jurisdiction? I am afraid that some people will rush for quick success for their own interests. It is very dangerous for laymen to lead experts.
As for the current football league? All kinds of match-fixing and black whistles are rampant. In this era where money is all about money, the salary an ordinary player earns from playing for a year is not as much as gambling on a game!
Moreover, the different interests of each club have also contributed to the emergence of black whistles for match-fixing. I remember that next year, in 1998, a player named Gao shouted angrily after encountering a blatant black whistle: "There is no chance for Chinese football.
Got it!"
However, this player surnamed Gao loved football so much that he even let his son continue to play football and become a member of the national team in the future. Unfortunately, the national football team was completely rotten by that time, and it is estimated that his son will never be able to make it in this life.
World Cup.
In the final analysis, it is all driven by interests. In addition, domestic parents attach great importance to the future prospects of their children, putting all their energy and care on their children, hoping that their children will study hard and change their destiny through culture.
If only a small number of parents do this, of course it is not a problem. The problem is that if all parents do this, then even if their children want to play football, they will be forced to study in schools and various cram schools. How can they have the energy to play football?
The combination of various subjective and objective unfavorable factors for the Chinese men's football team will bring the future of the Chinese men's football team to a standstill. Without a large enough football talent reserve, how can it break out of Asia and go global in the future?
Do you all want to play eSports?
Not to mention, when it comes to technical work, the Chinese people on Blue Star have no fear of anyone.
"Oh!" I have a headache.
"What are you sighing for?" asked Zhusha next to him.
"I am worried about the future of Chinese football."
"???" Zhu Sha rolled her eyes and lowered her head to answer the question.
She is not a football fan and has never watched a national football match.
Two words - happiness.
Entering the third year of junior high school, the various small tests in the class have increased significantly. This is a good thing for Ma Xiaolong, and he can earn some skill points. Although it is only 0.5 each time, he adds up to dozens of points in a year.
Point it!
As time enters October, there is no holiday for the National Day, and students continue to go to school hard.
On Friday, October 3, at the Golden State Stadium, after a rainy battle, the national football team swept Saudi Arabia 2:0, winning three consecutive top ten games, and the prospects for entering the World Cup are bright.
Domestic football fans are so happy that they are going crazy.
A week later, on October 11, the national football team played an away game against Kuwait. At the end of the 90-minute match, the national football team defeated Kuwait 2:1, winning four consecutive group stage matches and advancing to the World Cup finals with one foot.
Now, the domestic football atmosphere has been completely aroused. During these days, when Ma Xiaolong and Zhu Sha were walking on the street, they could see children wearing jerseys everywhere.
This is how sports are. Good results in any event will directly lead to a large number of people in the country to participate. This time the national football team has won four consecutive games in the group stage, which simply added a fire to the oil pot and directly ignited the domestic people's football.
enthusiasm.
Recently, there have been many students playing football on the school playground. If you just look at it, the domestic football environment cannot be better.
But six days later, the national football team visited Tehran with the courage of four consecutive victories and was defeated by Iran 3:1, which instantly cooled down the domestic fans.
"We are too blindly optimistic." At the post-match press conference, Milu rarely criticized the national football players: "Our players, including members of the coaching staff, must understand that we have not yet entered the World Cup finals. Before that,
We have no room to relax."
These words made the players and coaching staff extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, under Milutin's criticism, their attitudes were corrected again and they devoted themselves to preparations for the next home game against Qatar.
If we can score all three points against Qatar, we are basically guaranteed to get tickets to the World Cup directly. No one dares to be careless, and training is much more serious than in the past week.
Fortunately, there are still two weeks until the next game, so the national team has enough time to adjust and prepare.
On the last day of October, many students from Class 97 came to school with radios, but students from Class 96 did not dare to do this and studied in class honestly.
During the second class in the afternoon, a burst of crazy shouting suddenly came from Class 97.
Ma Xiaolong raised his head, knowing that the national football team had scored a goal, but the old classmate on the podium frowned: These students in Class 97, it’s okay if they don’t study hard, they also affect the study of other classes, they must be well managed by the school
.
At the beginning of the third class, there was another burst of cheers from Class 97. Ma Xiaolong's eyes lit up and he knew that the national football team had scored two goals. At this time in his last life, the national football team was already lagging behind 1:3, but looking at
In the current situation, it is estimated that the national football team is leading the way.
At the end of the third period, Ma Xiaolong walked out of the classroom, dragged a classmate from Class 97 who was listening to football on the radio, and asked, "What's the score now?"
Seeing that he was the one who stopped him from asking about the score, the classmate was surprised. In his opinion, top students like Ma Xiaolong should not watch football, but he didn't expect that he would ask him about the score.
"2:0." This classmate smiled broadly, who cares! Since we like football, we are all brothers: "The game will be over in ten minutes, and we will win soon."
Ma Xiaolong smiled and nodded: "Thank you."
"You're welcome, are you a fan too?" the classmate asked.
"I can't talk about fans, but I really like sports." Ma Xiaolong said with a smile.
This classmate suddenly realized that indeed, Ma Xiaolong has been the star of the school sports meet in the past two years. Two months ago, he broke the Asian record for the men's 100-meter dash at the provincial sports meet. This kind of person must like sports.
.
"Would you like to listen together?" the classmate asked.
"No." Ma Xiaolong waved his hand: "I still have to train."
"Oh? I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
"goodbye."
After bidding farewell to his classmate, Ma Xiaolong came to the playground and saw Coach Zhou sitting on a mat, listening to the radio.
"..."
A few minutes later.
"The game is over! The Chinese men's football team defeated Qatar 2:0. Our points have reached 15 points, while Iran, which is ranked second, only has 9 points, 6 points behind us. With two rounds left in the group stage, according to the game victory
Negative relationship, we and Iran both won at their respective home courts, and we both won two goals against each other at home, but we scored one more goal than Iran in the away game. This... so to speak... we... we qualified! China
The men’s football team advanced to the World Cup finals for the first time in history!!!”
“Okay——!” Coach Zhou roared excitedly and danced his soulful dance steps on the spot.
"..." Ma Xiaolong squatted aside silently. At this time, it was better not to interrupt his celebration to avoid embarrassment to each other.
After the excitement passed, Coach Zhou calmed down. When he saw Ma Xiaolong squatting aside, his body froze and asked: "When... did you come?"
"You cheer, while dancing." Ma Xiaolong replied cautiously.
Click——
Coach Zhou was petrified on the spot and died instantly.
…
The success of the national football team in the World Cup for the first time became a hot topic among domestic fans that day and for a long time to come. Various celebrations were also held in turn. All players who entered the national team became heroes and received various endorsements.
Milu's reputation as a magical coach has once again spread internationally, and the domestic media has even launched a god-making campaign.
No, Ma Xiaolong just finished his midterm exam today. When he got home, he saw a piece of news on the Internet. A fan organization raised money to build a bronze statue of Milu and placed it next to the Golden State Stadium.
Ma Xiaolong shook his head after seeing it, but it was not incomprehensible. This is already the sixth time the national football team has competed in the World Cup. There were too many regrets in the previous five times. Once the depression accumulated for decades breaks out, there will definitely be madness.
move.
How should I put it? It is a good thing that the national football team can enter the World Cup. This will stimulate more children to play football on the football field. Maybe in the future, the number of domestic football talents will reach an unimaginable number. And now there are more people paying attention to football. In the future
The situation of match-fixing and black whistles in the league will definitely be subject to certain restrictions, maybe this will...
No! It’s impossible no matter how you think about it.
People in this era only want money at the expense of their lives. If a foreigner gives you a million dollars to make you betray your country, perhaps the number of people in this era is the largest.
Although reform and opening up has promoted the development of the country's economy, the gap between the rich and the poor has also begun to appear, and the social atmosphere has entered an era of laughing at the poor but not at prostitution. As long as you give money, let alone betrayal, even... there are people who are willing to do it.
Ma Xiaolong knew that such a trend was not good, but it was the law of social development and there was no way around it.
Under the tide of this era, all he has to do is to do his own thing well and provide some positive energy to the country, hoping that he can drive the overall improvement of the entire country.
Thinking about it, there is still a long way to go and more efforts are needed.
After a few days of vacation, after returning to school, the old class announced the scores. As always, there were no disturbances. Dai Yu lost 6 points and Zhu Sha lost more than 20 points. This seemed to be her limit.
There is no way, her reading volume is completely insufficient, and she will easily lose points in liberal arts. Of course, this score is good enough, and she will have no problem getting into No. 1 Middle School.
Ma Xiaolong looked at his perfect score paper and remembered something.
On this day in his previous life, when he saw that he had failed all seven exams, he dropped out of school.
