Zizhao Chuan: The Biggest Sportsman

Chapter 24 Communication with Mom

在暑假补课期间还发生了一件大事，那就是第26届夏季奥运会于7月19日~8月4日，在美国亚特兰大举行了。

The Chinese team won a total of 16 gold medals in this Olympic Games, ranking fourth in the gold medal list.During this period, the moment when Chinese athletes won the championship on the competition field was talked about by people across the country for a long time.

For example, Chinese weightlifter Zhan Xugang, who broke three world records in a row; Wang Junxia, ​​the women's 5000m champion known as the "Oriental Sacred Deer"; Fu Minxia, ​​the new generation of "Diving Queen"; Liu Guoliang, who has begun to dominate the men's and women's table tennis circles , Kong Linghui, Deng Yaping, Qiao Hong; and the veteran Wang Yifu who lost the gold medal in the last shot and so on.

During this half month, people across the country are discussing the topic of the Olympics.Of course, as Guo Zizhao, who is determined to enter the Olympics in the future, how could he miss this opportunity to review the Olympics?Therefore, Guo Zizhao watched every game of the Chinese team, especially the track and field competitions.

It's a pity that apart from Wang Junxia's 5000m gold medal, there are no bright spots in Chinese track and field.Although he knew the result a long time ago, Guo Zizhao still felt deeply disappointed.

Well, from now on, the future of Chinese track and field will be entrusted to me...yyy again.

……

The ambiguous relationship between Guo Zizhao and Zhang Xia made a little progress after Guo Zizhao gave the music box.Of course, it was limited to running into someone who said a few whispers, which made Zhang Xia's sister blush.As for holding hands or something, Guo Zizhao doesn't have the guts yet.

If everyone sees what you say in private, you can still excuse yourself and say you are discussing study.If Lala's little hand is discovered, then Guo Zizhao will face repeated attacks from both parents.It's better to keep a low profile for now.After all, now that I am planning to become a professional athlete, I haven’t even told my mother yet.

At the end of the make-up classes on August 8, another monthly exam was organized for the third grade students.In the memory of Guo Zizhao's previous life, he would take such a monthly exam at the end of every month from now on, and he was more punctual than the girl's aunt.

After two days of overtime marking by the teachers, at the end of the make-up class on the 15th, the results and papers of the monthly exam were finally sent out.Let everyone go home and don't forget to review carefully and check for omissions.

Guo Zizhao's grades this time are also very good. He did not regress because of training and paying attention to his family's business, and he still ranked No.9 in the whole grade.Zhang Jian's head was hanging on his ass for a month, and his academic performance returned to the top 30 again, which made him breathe a long sigh of relief.

Guo Zizhao's physical training did not relax during this period.Now focus on speed improvement and strength exercises.Before the National Middle School Games at the end of the month, there should be no problem integrating the newly added attribute points.

But Guo Zizhao also knew that it was time to discuss with his mother about the agreement between himself and Uncle Li.After all, there are two days before I and my dad will go to Rongcheng to gather again, so we can't hide this matter by then.

Therefore, after dinner, everyone sat together to enjoy the cool air. Taking advantage of his mother's good mood these days, Guo Zizhao discussed it with his mother.

"Mom, what school do you plan to send me to for next year's college entrance examination?" Guo Zizhao asked pretending to be casual.

"Any school will do. As long as it's a good school and you can find a good employer in the future, that's all."

"Mom... you are too general. What is a good school? You should have a direction, right?" Guo Zizhao asked cautiously.

"Then go and take the normal college entrance examination. It would be good to be a teacher after graduation. It's not easy for people like you and me to have three months of vacation a year." Mom thought for a while, "How about taking the college entrance examination? It would be good to go to medical school and become a doctor. After graduation, you can either enter a hospital or open a small clinic on your own. What do you think?"

"Mom, what you said is not bad." Guo Zizhao organized his thoughts and said slowly, "You can either become a teacher or a doctor. Being a teacher is more leisurely and has a longer vacation, but the salary level is average. . It would be okay if I can find a good school after graduation, but if I can’t find a good school, my life will be a bit difficult if I return to the county or even work as a teacher in the lower towns. "

"Besides, if you want to be a teacher, you have to take a good major. Only if you study a major subject can you have a future. If you don't do well and take a minor subject, you won't be taken seriously in school. Look at the old man, even though he has graduated from a bachelor's degree But no matter how good the physical education is, it will still not be taken seriously in school."

"Well, you are right. You must choose your major well, or you will regret it for the rest of your life. As the saying goes, men are afraid of doing the wrong job, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. You are actually very capable, just do it. Wrong way." My mother also said with sympathy, "If your old man taught Chinese or mathematics, it would be no problem to be a dean now."

"Well, you're right, Mom. But being a teacher still doesn't earn much. Now everyone calls teachers teaching for the poor. They can't make a fortune even if they're hungry. Otherwise, how can you go out to do business? You two are teachers. , just relying on some dead wages, our family has been struggling these years."

"Um...yeah. So you have to find a good school after graduation. Schools in counties or towns like me and you old man have no future."

"That has to be related. It doesn't matter that you can't get into a good school. With so many students graduating every year, there are only a few good schools, and they are all competing for them." Guo Zizhao continued, "And now the country will not be able to get into it starting this year. The package is assigned, and when you graduate, you have to find the unit by yourself, how do you find it? It’s not about who is related, and if it doesn’t matter, you can only go to a poor unit.”

Guo Zizhao's mother also became a little silent after talking.Guo Zizhao felt a little uncomfortable after seeing it, but in order to achieve his goal, Guo Zizhao still had to bite the bullet and said, "Studying medicine is actually not bad. After all, if you learn a craft, you will never be short of food. But taking the medical school exam and the normal school exam The difference is that the normal school is free of tuition, but the medical school is not. In five years, the tuition alone will cost 5 yuan."

Guo Zizhao took a sip of water and continued, "Not only will graduation be delayed by a year, but there will also be certain risks in the future. If you accidentally prescribe the wrong medicine or misdiagnose someone, it will be difficult for the patient to make trouble. Now every family has one My child, if something happens in the hospital, you will not have to pay a large sum of money, and you will have to ruin your reputation."

Guo Zizhao silently thought that the doctor-patient relationship would become increasingly tense in the future. There were many reports of doctors being beaten, accused and even killed by patients' families. Doctors have since become a high-risk profession, so it is better to stay away.

Mom thought for a while and said, "You don't need enough money to go to college. Although our family was not rich before, we have always saved the money for you to go to school. Besides, I have made some money in business in the past two years. Money, you can still afford your tuition.”

"Mom, that's the money you earned from waking up early and working late at night. It's not easy. If we can save some, we will save some. It would be great to keep you two to improve your lives in the future." Guo Zizhao also said with emotion.

……

"Then what do you think? After all, this is related to your lifelong future. Tell us and we will help you check it." Mom also said with a hint, "Don't say you want to play sports like your old man?"

In the past six months, Guo Zizhao's energy in track and field practice has also been watched by his mother.Therefore, my mother is still worried that Guo Zizhao will be impulsive and follow his father's old path.

"What's wrong with sports? Didn't you also watch the Olympic Games during this period? How about watching those Olympic champions who win glory for the country? Isn't that gaining both fame and fortune? It's not much more honorable than being an ordinary teacher!" Guo Zizhao Immediately refuted unconvinced.

"You have to be an Olympic champion, right? If you can be an Olympic champion, your mother will wake me up laughing when I fall asleep." My mother said unceremoniously, "What level are you now, don't tell me You can’t get into the national team, even the provincial team! If you can get into the national team, I won’t stop you from practicing sports!”

What you've been waiting for!

Guo Zizhao was immediately overjoyed and smiled happily...
"Why are you smirking?" Mom asked inexplicably looking at Guo Zizhao's stupid look.

"Comrade Li Rong, it seems that you still don't quite understand your son's level." Dad suddenly said proudly at this time.

"What level? Are you two fathers hiding something from me?" My mother also felt that something was wrong, and asked suspiciously as she looked at the two of them.

"Ahem...well, last time I went to Rongcheng to participate in the Provincial Youth Games. My son did well. Later, the national team called to find out about the situation and wanted to recruit him into the national team." Dad Niupi said coquettishly.However, it is concealed that the national youth team wants to recruit sons, not the national team.However, the national youth team is also a national team.

"Ah..." Mom couldn't respond.The son can enter the national team now?is that a lie?

"Ahem..." Guo Zizhao interrupted his father's argument and explained, "After the last game, Uncle Li told me that the national team wanted to recruit me. But I didn't agree to go for the time being."

"Why?" Mom was still at a loss.

"It's like this. I think my current level is not good enough. Even if I enter the national team, I will still be a substitute. In addition, I also want to take the college entrance examination next year. After all, I have the status of a college student. Even if I retire in the future It is also a way out." Then Guo Zizhao talked about the agreement between himself and Uncle Li selectively.

Of course, Guo Zizhao did not say that he was only planning to be affiliated with the Sports Committee, and he did not plan to enjoy athletes' subsidies.After all, I am afraid that my mother will not understand it for a while and it will cause trouble.

After Guo Zizhao's explanation, my mother finally understood.

"So you're sure to break the record at the National Middle School Games next week?"

"Well, I tested it these days, and it's no problem to reach the national athlete standard."

"At that time, the national team will definitely be able to take a fancy to you?"

"I'm sure I can see it. But I still don't plan to go for the time being. One is that next year I have to take the college entrance examination, and the other is that the Olympic Games have just ended, and there are no major competitions. I have no chance to participate in the competition, so I will wait until the college entrance examination is over."

"Then you are going to take the physical examination? And let Dean Li send you to the physical examination?"

"Yes. I went to deliver his political achievements to him. Of course he has to transfer the old man over so that he can continue to be responsible for my training."

"Then don't consider other schools? You can also be an athlete if you are admitted to other schools?"

"Mom, the situation is like this. Look, if I reach the standard of a good athlete in the competition this time, I will go to the province to register as an athlete of the provincial team, and I will take the college entrance examination next year to enter the sports institute. Then I will become a national player. Is it counted as Uncle Li's political achievements if I get the grades? After all, the students from my school have become members of the national team. In this way, Uncle Li will take care of me wholeheartedly and transfer the old man to work in the sports institute. If I go to another school, it has nothing to do with Uncle Li, why should he take care of me?"

Guo Zizhao breathed a sigh of relief, and continued, "Besides, since I have entered the national team, I will definitely retire in the future. At that time, I will rely on my qualifications from the national team, coupled with a bachelor's degree in physical education, and Under the care of Uncle Li at the Provincial Sports Commission, isn’t it normal to be assigned to work at the Provincial Sports Commission after retirement? Even if you can’t get to the Sports Commission, you can still be a coach of the provincial team or something. These are the iron rice bowls!”

"If I go to another school, not to mention whether I only train in sports, will I still be able to graduate? Even if I graduate, what will I do after retiring? If I am not a sports major, Uncle Li will not be able to arrange a good job for me." Work hard. Do I have to find a job by myself? Don’t you think so?”

Looking at the silent mother, Guo Zizhao knew that his mother agreed in her heart, but it was too sudden and she hadn't recovered yet.After all, Guo Zizhao's plan not only improved his father's job from a middle school teacher in the county to a university teacher in the provincial capital, but it also guaranteed him a job after graduation.Provincial Sports Commission, that is the enviable iron rice bowl of this era!
　The weekend is over, and it will resume every day from tomorrow, please forgive me!Thanks again to "Fei Chang Sheng Sheng" and "Xin Wei Dong" for their votes.
