When Zhao Zhen and his party arrived at the training ground with Han Qi, Han Yonghe, Cao Yi and Fan Zhongyan, they found that in addition to all the members of the two teams that were about to have a warm-up match, there were some other spectators who had also arrived.
Arrived on the sidelines.
Lu Yao and Zhe Kexing had previously stipulated that during training, only the leaders of other teams could watch the games from the sidelines and watch the training of other teams, while the players were not allowed to watch the games from the sidelines. However, today’s warm-up match and
It was different before. Each team, including the leader, allowed a total of three people to come to the sidelines to watch the warm-up match. This also gave players who did not participate in the warm-up match an opportunity to observe the match on the spot.
Naturally, every team will not miss this opportunity. No, except for the two participating teams, Fanlou Team and Grassroots Team, the other six teams have also arrived, and the purpose is naturally to watch this game.
Warm-up match.
Among them, the Wenyuan team and the Lions team that will face each other in the warm-up match tomorrow are led by Han Wenyuan and Cao You, respectively, with two of their team members watching the game on the sidelines. The two players of the Wenyuan team watching the game are exactly
Two of the three players who were replaced, and Cao Yu, were also standing on the sidelines with the stronger-looking players from the two teams.
As for the other teams, of course Huangtian Team needless to say. Wang Da and Wang Yi were standing there with another team member. As soon as they saw Zhao Zhen coming, they immediately greeted him.
On the Wangcai team's side, Zhang Maocai also understood the importance of this warm-up match, so he personally brought two team members to the training ground today to watch the game. On the Goshawk team's side, it was Gu Liang who brought two
The team members stood there. After seeing Han Qi, they also went to join Han Qi.
As for the Tigers, Zhao Hu did not come to the training ground today. Of course, this is not because he disrespects the emperor Zhao Zhen, but because Zhao Hu believes that he himself can say that from the beginning of this game to the present, except for one time
Outside of the palace, he basically never cares about the Tigers' training or other matters. But this time, there are only three places for the team to watch the game. If he is there, it will represent his subordinates.
One less member of the team could watch the game, which was very disadvantageous in Zhao Hu's view, so Zhao Hu decided to give up this spot, so in the end, the Tigers who watched the game from the sidelines became Yang Tao, leading the Tigers
of two team members.
When everyone saw the emperor coming, they quickly stood up, lined up, and saluted the emperor under the organization of Zhe Kexing.
Basically, everyone in Zhao Zhen's group, including the leaders and team members, has met them before. However, there is one person who they are very surprised because they have never seen this person before.
The person who makes everyone feel strange is naturally Fan Zhongyan. This is not difficult to understand. In fact, ordinary people live their own lives and national events have nothing to do with them most of the time. So even if they have heard of Fan Zhongyan,
No., but there was no chance to see his true appearance. So everyone looked at Fan Zhongyan's unfamiliar face and wondered if he might be someone Lu Yao had come up with and sent to do something.
Among these people, only Zhe Kexing knew Fan Zhongyan's identity and status, so he gave these team members a vicious look. When these team members saw that even the instructor respected this stranger, he seemed to be a ruthless character, so he
They all withdrew their questioning glances.
Of course, all this was seen by Fan Zhongyan, but he would never lose his temper with these common people.
Zhao Zhen motioned for everyone to get down, and then walked to where the Grassroots team and the Fanlou team were lining up. After all, in today's warm-up match, these two teams were the real protagonists.
Zhao Zhen looked at the members of the two teams, then walked back to the center of the training ground and called Chen Chen and Pan Wen.
"This first warm-up match is between your two teams. I know that both of you are Lu Yao's friends, so I shouldn't be disappointed in this match."
Chen Chen and Pan Wen both nodded, saying that they would do their best.
Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "Well, the game is back to the game. I think your relationship is also very good, but don't let this game affect your relationship."
Although Zhao Zhen said this, through the conversation just now, he could already know that the results of this game will never affect the relationship between the two teams. On the contrary, the result of tomorrow's warm-up match will be
It's completely different. Neither the Han family nor the Cao family looks down on the other. The next warm-up match will be almost like a life-and-death contest.
After communicating with Chen Chen and Pan Wen, Zhao Zhen wanted to say something, but he thought that Lu Yao and the others had not arrived yet, so he just stood there, waiting for Lu Yao and the others to come over.
Han Qi couldn't stand it at this time and said: "This Lu Yao is really true. The emperor has arrived early, but he is so unpunctual that he hasn't arrived yet."
Han Yonghe wanted to say something for Lu Yao, but he thought that Han Qi was in the spotlight now and it would not be a good thing to offend him, so he did not say anything in the end.
Fan Zhongyan, who was on the other side, spoke at this time and said: "Brother Han, there is no need to be so angry. It's not the specified time yet, and Lu Yao is not late. He really didn't come when the time came, so there's no point in convicting him."
Late."
Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "Yes, it's not that Lu Yao came late, but that I came early."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yao and others appeared in the training ground. Along with Lu Yao, there were the trio of Bao Zheng and the two brothers Su Shi and Su Zhe.
To be honest, Lu Yao had originally thought that Zhao Zhen might come to the training ground in advance to check the situation, but he did not expect that Zhao Zhen was still paying more attention to this warm-up match and had arrived so early in advance, so he did the same
He led the people to walk quickly to Zhao Zhen.
Lu Yao saluted and said, "I am late, I hope your majesty will forgive me."
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "Fan Qing's family just said that if you haven't arrived at the appointed time, it won't be considered late. Get up."
Lu Yao was in such a hurry that he had not looked at the people standing behind Zhao Zhen. Now after hearing what the emperor said, Lu Yao responded while raising his head, and then looked behind Zhao Zhen, all familiar people
Between the faces, Lu Yao saw the man, Fan Zhongyan.
At this time, Fan Zhongyan also looked at Lu Yao, and their eyes met.
This was the first meeting between Lu Yao and Fan Zhongyan. For Lu Yao, the mood was quite exciting. The person in front of him was Fan Zhongyan, who was about to carry out the feats of the Qingli New Deal and write famous lines throughout the ages.
Lu Yao didn't know what to say for a moment, but Zhao Zhen turned to look at Fan Zhongyan and said, "This is the first time you two have met."
Fan Zhongyan was very straightforward, nodded, then stepped forward, bowed to Lu Yao, and said: "I have met Mr. Xiao Lu. I have heard many people mention you before, and what you have done in Bianliang City in recent days.
Such achievements, when I see him today, he is indeed a hero born from a young age."
For some reason, when Fan Zhongyan said this kind of serious compliment, he had another feeling. Lu Yao felt that this person was not falsely praising him, but actually felt that he had
What he did was pretty good.
So Lu Yao said: "Where is it? Your Excellency has given me a reward."
For Lu Yao, it would be a bit exaggerated to say that he and Fan Zhongyan felt like old friends at first sight, but Lu Yao could see that Fan Zhongyan was a man with great ambitions and a person who could do great things.
What Lu Yao didn't know was that Fan Zhongyan was also observing what kind of person Lu Yao was through their first meeting.
"It seems that everything is ready now, and everyone has arrived." Zhao Zhen waited for Lu Yao and Fan Zhongyan to finish greeting, and then looked at Bao Zheng, Su Shi and others standing behind Lu Yao.
, said something.
"Well, the arrangements can be made now, and the game can start in half an hour at most." Lu Yao said.
Zhao Zhen then ordered Lu Yao to start preparations, but Lu Yao unexpectedly stopped Zhao Zhen.
Lu Yao said: "Your Majesty, although this is not the first official competition, it is the first real competition since the new Cuju Competition was held, and it is also the first competition in the true sense. Now it includes the participation of each team.
The leader, captain, coach, and main players are all here too, and I was thinking, “Could your Majesty say something to give this competition a good start?”
Zhao Zhen thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense."
So, Lu Yao and Zhe Ke organized everyone to stand up, and Zhao Zhen faced all the participants in the competition, thought for a moment, and then said: "Actually, when Lu Yao first told me about this competition,
, I didn’t pay much attention to it, I thought it was just a novel idea of Lu Yao, but over time, as everyone actively participated in this competition, and then, the people in the entire Bianliang City were attracted by it.
After understanding the benefits that this new Cuju could bring, I also started to be interested in this new Cuju that Lu Yao mentioned. The success of this competition is inseparable from the hard training of everyone present every day.
, I am very relieved to see that everyone is very involved in the new Cuju project. I hope that you can give your best in the following warm-up matches and official competitions to win for all the audiences and for your team.
honor."
"I have no obligation to refuse!"
The people below said in unison.
Zhao Zhen's speech was concise and to the point, and it was very morale-boosting. Lu Yao was deeply impressed. The most important thing is that Zhao Zhen had basically no preparation before making this speech, so he could say such inspiring words.
It seems that I still need to learn more from Zhao Zhen in this aspect.
But Lu Yao thought about it again. Zhao Zhen's original identity was the emperor, so he seemed to have to be good at this aspect.
Then, everyone got busy on the training ground.
Because the size of the court in Lu Yao's mobile phone is definitely different from the size of the current training ground, so in addition to the players having to be familiar with the court, the referees also need to have a basic familiarity with the court.
So, Lu Yao took the trio of Bao Zheng and walked around the training ground to let them get familiar with the venue. Then he assigned Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng to their respective positions. Because of this
In the Song Dynasty, it was impossible to make the same flags as modern football referees. Lu Yao simply made a small red flag for Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, as well as a whistle, signaling that they were about to compete.
The props to be used.
As for Zhan Zhao, he only needed a whistle. Lu Yao asked Zhan Zhao to run from one end of the training ground to the other to get used to the entire court. It must be said that Zhan Zhao's foot strength was really good and he ran along the entire court.
After two laps, I didn't even take a breath. It seemed that letting him be the referee was a very correct choice.
After arranging the referee's work, the next step is the commentator. When it comes to commentators, the first thing to solve is the problem of speaking voice. Modern technology is developed, and there are various loudspeakers, earphones, microphones, etc.
You can make the commentator's voice louder, etc., but this was in the Song Dynasty. Now warm-up matches are okay. People watching can ensure that they don't make a sound during the game, so that they can hear the commentator very clearly.
Commentary voice, but it is different when it comes to the official competition. There are at least a hundred people watching. By the time it is the second half of the competition, during the finals, maybe if the publicity is in place, there will be thousands of people.
Come to watch the game. As I said before, these people don’t know much about this Cuju competition. Whether it’s the rules, the players, or all the situations, the commentators have to tell them. However, facing the above
With thousands of viewers, how can we make them all hear our own voice when the level of technology is backward?
It would not be impossible if Zhao Zhen made a decree not to allow all the audience to speak, but it would probably cause the people to hate Cuju because of this decree. Once it has the opposite effect, the gain will outweigh the loss.
Therefore, it was impossible to refuse the audience to discuss privately while watching the game. Therefore, Lu Yao could only come up with another way. He ordered the workers in the iron smelting plant to process three iron speakers.
The loudspeaker comes out. Although this thing is not as effective as a modern large speaker, it can still be used to amplify people's speaking voices at this time. After all, people in the Song Dynasty generally tended to be weak in writing and spoke slowly and not loudly. It's just that
This would make things difficult for Su Shi and Su Zhe. When they were explaining, they had to open their voices and speak.
At this time, Su Shi and Su Che, because there are relatively few people watching the game today, and because Emperor Zhao Zhen is personally sitting in the battle, when the game starts, even if everyone has their own ideas, they may not be able to do it directly in front of Zhao Zhen.
Say it. However, in order to test whether the speaker he made worked well, Lu Yao, after asking Zhao Zhen for instructions, gave Su Shi, Su Che, and the commentator Zhe Kexing a speaker each to use for amplification.
sound.
Su Shi and Su Che were checking the roster of players. They were also checking whether they remembered the names of the players from the Fanlou team and the Grassroots team correctly.
Originally, Lu Yao planned to let Chen Chen and Pan Wen lead the team to warm up on the training ground, but he learned that the two teams had arrived at the training ground long ago and had completed their warm-up exercises, so he let them
The two teams stood in the stadium, waiting for the game to officially start.
Then, after a while, the three people on Bao Zheng's side were ready, and the three people on Su Shi's side also found the most suitable position for commentary. Now on the court, except for the relevant personnel of the two teams, everyone else was also
He was taken out of the stadium and watched the game from the sidelines. Originally, Lu Yao planned to let Zhao Zhen go to a place a little further away to watch the game. After all, standing on the sidelines would inevitably be accidentally injured by Cuju, but Zhao Zhen said that he could only stand on the sidelines to watch the game.
Only Bian could see this game most intuitively, and Lu Yao couldn't say anything else.
Everything was ready, so Lu Yao started to follow the rules of football, first letting the players and leaders of both sides shake hands.
On the other side, Lu Yao also waved towards Su Shi, indicating that from this moment on, he could actually start explaining.
Su Shi saw Lu Yao's prompt, and then he cleared his throat with Su Che, picked up the iron trumpet, and said: "What is about to be held now is the first warm-up match of the new Cuju competition. The grassroots team led by Chen Chen
Team, against the Fan Lou team led by Pan Wen, I am the commentator for this game, Su Shi."
"I am Su Che, the commentator for this game. As the real first game of this new Cuju competition, I hope the two teams can bring you an exciting game!"
These two people deliberately raised their voices when speaking. Coupled with the amplification of the iron horn, the volume of this voice should be said to be heard by people including half of the palace. Although Zhao Zhen immediately
He thought the sound was loud enough and covered his ears, but he had the same idea as Lu Yao. With such a loud volume, when the official game comes, all the people present should be able to hear the commentary clearly.
In this way, we can spread knowledge about the new Cuju to them.
The players of the two teams shaking hands on the field were not affected by the commentator's loud voice at all. Before that, Pan Wen and Chen Chen had considered all the elements of the game. They naturally knew what Su Shi and Su Zhe were explaining.
The sound will be very loud at times, and they have told their players in advance not to be affected by the commentator's voice.
After the two sides shook hands, the referee Zhan Zhao appeared and found Pan Wen and Chen Chen. According to the regulations, one side chooses the venue, and the other side chooses to serve first. After the start of the second half, there will be a switch, the two sides switch sides, and the serve is also
Teams will be changed.
Because Pan Wen and Chen Chen also studied these rules very thoroughly, they did not spend too much time on the process.
Fan Zhongyan and Zhao Zhen, who were on the sidelines, watched with gusto. Fan Zhongyan saw that these players were well organized. If no one told him, he would not believe it. This is a new sport and it is the first time to compete.
This is also the first game, and so far, there have been no problems.
Zhao Zhen was naturally very satisfied. Judging from the situation on the scene, as long as every game in the future follows this process and no unexpected problems occur, there will be no problem at least in terms of configuration.
Su Shi and Su Che were still talking, and began to ask Zhe Kexing about his thoughts.
"Today we have invited Katsuyuki Zhe, who is also the instructor of the eight teams in this new Cuju competition, to explain this game with us. I wonder what instructor Zhe thinks of the Fanlou team and the grassroots team?
Can you tell us about their usual training performance and the status of the players?"
Facing Su Shi and Su Che's questions, Zhe Kexing didn't seem to panic at all, because he had seen the questions asked by these two people with his own eyes, so Zhe Kexing also picked up the loudspeaker and said: "Fan
In my opinion, these two teams, the Building Team and the Grassroots Team, are the two teams among the eight teams that work very hard from the leader to the players. The playing styles of the two teams are different. The biggest difference
, they are the coaches of the two teams.”
Su Shi said: "Yes, as we all know, Pan Wen and Chen Chen are the coaches of the Fanlou team and the Grassroots team respectively, but as a coach, Pan Wen does not have to play, but Chen Chen is different. He is both a coach and a player.
The position of coach is actually more suitable for watching games from the sidelines, and Chen Chen himself has to play games and serve as a coach, so I don’t know if it will have a certain impact on the grassroots teams."
Su Che took over the conversation at this time and said: "Having said that, we might as well take a look at each team's lineup for today."
Then, Su Shi and Su Che began to introduce the starting lineups of the two teams. At the same time, Chen Chen and Pan Wen had also made a decision on the court. In the first half, Chen Chen would choose the side, while Pan Wen's Fan Lou team would start.
The ball takes the lead in attacking.
Everything was ready, and the members of both teams were standing at their positions. At this time, everyone including Lu Yao had a look of surprise on their faces.
That is, Chen Chen did not return to his own half, but went directly to the sidelines. This also means that Chen Chen is not the starting player of the grassroots team.
Obviously, the commentator also knew this through the starting list. Su Shi said: "I didn't expect that Chen Chen was not the starting player of the grassroots team. He was standing on the sidelines as a coach like Pan Wen."
Zhe Kexing, who was on the sidelines, was a little surprised. He said in surprise: "His idea should be a temporary decision, because in the previous training, Chen Chen devoted himself to the training of the team as a whole every time.
of."
Not to mention Zheke, Lu Yao did not expect that Chen Chen would choose to watch the game as a coach.
