Chapter 6 Freshman Selection

Chapter 6 Freshman Selection
On the morning of the next day, the military training for freshmen in Licheng Middle School officially started.

The content of military training is very simple, just the same, standing in a military posture and kicking forward.Because of the training in the school, in order to prevent major accidents, it is unnecessary to carry a gun to shoot a target.Queue training has become the simplest, most effective, safe and reliable way of military training.

Early in the morning, all the freshmen gathered on the playground, and the principal Zhu Yida stood on the flag raising platform to give a welcome speech and military training mobilization for the freshmen.

Zhu Yida was nicknamed "Pig Tail" in Licheng Middle School, not because he looked like a pig or had braids in his hair, but because he had a characteristic of speech and speech, he liked to say a few words after he finished speaking.

But every time Zhu Yida said "say a few more words", it turned into dozens or hundreds of sentences, and the students were so annoyed that they gave him such an ugly nickname.

Today, the freshmen were mobilized for military training. After reading the mobilization speech according to the script, Zhu Yida would say a few more words as usual.

He started from the difference between junior high school and high school life, talked about his own experience of studying in Licheng Middle School, from the importance of the college entrance examination, to the need to do more questions in the evening self-study, and learned several college entrance examination champions from Licheng Middle School. How Trump was elected President of the United States.

Zhu Yida's speech was originally cadenced and slowed down, and it took more than 40 minutes to speak eloquently.

When the mobilization meeting started in the morning, the sun was still hidden in the clouds. By the time Zhu Yida talked about the importance of military training to school life, the sun had already shone half of the original shadow of the flagpole.

The cement playground under the sun is getting hotter and hotter, and the students below can't take it anymore, complaining, moving, and wiping sweat, and the scene gradually becomes chaotic.

At this time, the instructors of each class changed from their gentleness and amiability at the meeting yesterday, and began to maintain on-site discipline.

After a while, the playground was much quieter, except for Zhu Yida's nagging voice and the noisy cicadas on the big tree beside the playground.

"Okay, students, I have one more point, and it's the last point."

Zhu Yida bit by bit, seeing that the sun was getting hotter and hotter, and frail students would not be able to stand still, so he finally moved out the last point.

"Before we mainly talked about study, and finally I came to talk to you about interests and dreams. Everyone has dreams, especially you students. There are infinite possibilities in the future, and there are infinite dreams. I want to travel around the world and make movies. , I want to go to space, I want to make a lot of money. However, dreams are not blind dreams. Dreams must have a foundation, dreams must have support, dreams must have goals, and it is useless to talk about it. Take our school basketball team as an example. No dream? I definitely have one. I want to go to the United States, want to be a professional player, and want to play in the NBA. As a result, I can’t even get No.1 in Licheng County. When I was studying in Licheng Middle School, the county’s basketball In the competition, Licheng Middle School has never won No.2, and they are always number one! Did those athletes go to the United States at that time? No, then you can’t even achieve this small goal now, so what other bigger ideals are you talking about? ?”

Zhu Yida regards the basketball team as a negative teaching material.

In the early years, as the best high school in Licheng, the outstanding basketball students in junior high schools in Licheng area were willing to come here to play, so the school has been the champion of Licheng County Competition for a long time.

In recent years, Mingguang Middle School, the biggest rival of Licheng Middle School, has begun to invest a lot of money in basketball, giving generous scholarships and subsidies to those basketball special students. The strength of Mingguang Middle School basketball team is gradually approaching that of Licheng Middle School.

Last year, Mingguang Middle School first recruited Jiang Xiaowu, the former basketball coach of Licheng Middle School, with a high salary, and then used Jiang Xiaowu and high scholarships to recruit the two most talented basketball students in Licheng in recent years.

As a result, Mingguang Middle School not only easily defeated Licheng Middle School in this year's county competition to win the county championship, but also entered the top eight in the municipal winter selection competition, breaking the best result of Licheng Middle School in the municipal competition.

"So, I think that if we want to realize our dreams, we must start with every little thing and every small goal. I think our basketball team should have a small goal, and strive to bring back the championship of the county competition In the past few days, I have also discussed with the school’s coaches and teachers. I plan to organize a selection for freshmen, and select some students with dreams and abilities to join the basketball team to enhance our strength and strive to compete in this year’s county competition. Reshape the glory of Licheng Middle School!"

After adding a few more words later, Zhu Yida's smelly and long pig tail finally came to an end, and the freshman standing under the sun was about to faint.

Lu Yuan was also a little dizzy standing below, he was not dizzy because of being exposed to the sun, but because of Zhu Yida's speech.

Old Zhu turned around and turned to basketball, which made Lu Yuan feel strange, why did the word basketball appear more and more in front of him in the past two days?

........................

Fifteen minutes later, in the principal's office on the third floor of the administration building, Gao Jing, head coach of the Licheng Middle School basketball team, patted Zhu Yida on the table.

"Principal Zhu, it's a good thing that you attach importance to the basketball team, but you can't mess around. What do you mean by freshman selection? In the basketball game, you can just find a few who are taller? I didn't hear any news beforehand. Busy with the training for the new semester, what kind of selection is coming down now, isn't it adding to the chaos!"

Gao Jing's words were not polite, and the female coach seemed to have a serious temper.

Because her father is the old principal of Licheng Middle School, has retired, and is Zhu Yida's old boss.On weekdays, Gao Jing called Zhu Yida uncle, and she was used to it, and dared to challenge the principal when she lost her temper.

Zhu Yida understood Gao Jing's temper. He sat at the desk calmly, waited for Gao Jing to vent, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and said, "Xiao Jing, uncle sent you a short video."

"Principal, if you send random videos to female subordinates, it constitutes sexual harassment!"

"Oh, don't get me wrong, it's two boys..."

"Principal, you still have this habit!"

Lao Zhu rolled his eyes and said, "After watching the video, you will know why the trials are held!" He said and sent the video to Gao Jing through the chat software.

Gao Jing dubiously clicked on the video, and it turned out to be two boys, one of whom she still knew, a new member of this year's basketball team, Dai Haoran, the best player in the county junior high school basketball game.

In the video, Dai Haoran is standing on the court with a tall boy, surrounded by a circle of people.

The video was shot from under the basket, Gao Jing could see that someone was going to challenge Dai Haoran.

Dai Haoran was not only the best player in the Licheng Junior High School basketball game, but also the student Gao Jing named at the Licheng Middle School basketball special enrollment selection meeting.

It took her a lot of effort and a lot of work to get Dai Haoran to agree to play in Licheng Middle School, and she was not poached by Mingguang Middle School.

As for the "challenging" boy Gao Jing, I don't know who it is. He is quite tall, but he is not from the school basketball team.Judging by his military training uniform, he should be from this group of freshmen.

Gao Jing became interested now, but she wanted to see who else in Licheng Middle School could challenge Dai Haoran besides the members of the basketball team.

But after watching for more than a minute, Gao Jing was shocked.

The first ball "Challenger" took advantage of Dai Haoran's lack of preparation and scored a jump shot with an emergency stop; the second ball he slowly broke through from the right side, and suddenly exerted his strength to push away Dai Haoran's horseback riding and archery; "Preparation" directly hit a three-pointer.

Then the boy gave Dai Haoran a chance to attack. As a result, Dai Haoran's most adept sideline breakthrough and step-back jumper was interfered, and the ball was directly stuck on the basket.

3:0, no suspense heads-up, Dai Haoran suffered a zero seal, lost without temper.

Gao Jing paused the video, looked at Zhu Yida and said, "Principal Zhu, what is the background of this kid?"

Zhu Yida stood up slowly, walked to the window, looked at the freshmen standing in a military posture on the playground downstairs, but did not answer Gao Jing's question.

Gao Jing became anxious now, thinking that Zhu Yida was trying to trick her, she jumped up from the sofa and said, "School Zhu...Uncle Zhu, just tell me, I was too anxious just now, don't you get angry?"

Zhu Yida shook his head, he wasn't trying to get angry with Gao Jing, but he really didn't know who this kid was.

Seeing that Gao Jing wanted to ask again, he hurriedly said: "Okay, Xiao Jing, don't care what background he is, he is a freshman in Licheng Middle School. Look below, he is participating in military training. You see, except for the kids on the basketball team, other The students are also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The meaning of my selection is that I hope to pick out more outstanding players, the potential of children is unlimited!"

After hearing this, Gao Jing finally nodded, agreed to the principal's selection suggestion, and said, "Okay, I'll go and prepare for the selection right away. That kid must let him participate!"

After Gao Jing finished speaking, she left the principal's office in a hurry and went to discuss the selection.

"Hey hey! I haven't finished watching the video yet, after watching it, watching it..."

Before Zhu Yida finished speaking, Gao Jing had disappeared.

"Actually, I want you to see the kid at the end, that young man, he can really dance."

He originally wanted to tell Gao Jing that Bai Ye must be selected for the basketball team, and that the little boy at the end of the video could study it carefully and think about it.

Principal Zhu didn't know much about basketball, he couldn't tell Bai Ye's level, but Lu Yuan's jump surprised Old Zhu.

........................

At noon, Principal Zhu was going to the cafeteria for dinner.

Wang Ke, the dean of the school on the road and concurrently the head teacher of the fifth class, also asked Zhu Yida about the selection of the basketball team.

Wang Ke is 30 years old this year, and he has only been teaching for seven years, but he is already the dean.He has always been known for his strict management of students, and he is Zhu Yida's right-hand man, but this time he also did not get any news from the principal, which made him feel very strange.

"Principal Zhu, this kind of selection has never happened before. Among the ordinary students, how can there be any players who play games? It's okay to play games for fun. It's a bit difficult to participate in regular games."

Wang Ke followed Principal Zhu to test it out.

Wang Ke is tall and strong, with curly hair, sweating profusely from the sun.

But he is careless. Principal Zhu often consults with him on school management issues. He is responsible for many non-teaching affairs, such as the school sports team.

Because of this, Wang Ke still has quite a lot of power in his hands, and several sports special enrollment places in the school are in his hands.

Parents of some students with poor grades and a little special skill in sports will use Wang Ke to fight for a chance for their children to study in Licheng Middle School.

Before Jiang Xiaowu left, the two most talented students were recruited by Mingguang Middle School, and Wang Ke was responsible for both.Because Zhu Yida's academic policy is to put cultural achievements first, the expenditure on sports has been reduced again and again.

Last year, those two students both wanted to apply for school scholarships, but Wang Ke directly rejected them and accepted other students, which instead generated school selection fees for the school.

This time Zhu Yida's wind direction changed suddenly, which caught Wang Ke by surprise.

Zhu Yida walked quickly with his hands behind his back. At noon, he had to have a meal with several instructors. Hearing Wang Ke's question, he said, "Last week, I participated in the work meeting of the Education Bureau. One of the basic requirements of high school is that collective sports events must be able to participate in prefecture-level city competitions and be able to get rankings! What do you think is the reason for this selection?"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Yida walked even faster, Wang Ke was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed Zhu Yida to the cafeteria without wiping off his sweat.

Zhu Yida actually only said half of what he said to Wang Ke, and kept the other half in his stomach.

In addition to applying for a five-star high school that requires the basketball team to get a place, another important thing is that the NHBA National High School Basketball League Foundation has decided to increase subsidies for each school.

This subsidy used to be available every year, based on the comprehensive consideration of the school's size, performance, and region.This time, another consideration has been added, which is the integrity of the team lineup.

In the past, in order to save money, the number of basketball teams in county-level middle schools like Licheng Middle School was generally maintained at 8-9 people. On game days, the track and field team or ordinary students were recruited to make up the number, so that each player could share more expenses. , Schools and coaches can also get more.

Today, the new subsidy plan will be determined according to the number of registered players in the team, and only a team of 12 can get the full subsidy.For example, some strong basketball schools even divide into the first team and the second team, and get even more subsidies.

At present, the Licheng High School basketball team has 9 members including freshmen in senior high school, and there are only 3 players short of the 12-man roster.

Moreover, ever since Bai Ye asked to join the basketball team, Lao Zhu has been thinking about how to get Bai Ye into the basketball team.

Now using the selection method, one can pick two more players to fill up the team's quota, and second, it can quietly stuff Baiye into the basketball team. It is a perfect solution that has the best of both worlds.
In addition, yesterday he saw the video of Bai Ye and Dai Haoran singled out, knowing that this kid is not easy in basketball, he has no worries.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu admired himself, he walked faster, and he had to drink two more cups at noon.
