Figure skating went to the Republic of China to write novels

Another morning, Zhang Sushang and Alexei ate two boiled eggs in bone broth and soaked Leba in hot milk. They just had a breakfast like this and jogged side by side to school.

It was Zhang Sushang who suggested that the two of them exercise together, and he also had good intentions.

Although they haven't known each other for a long time, Zhang Sushang has already recognized Alexei's status as a good friend. He sincerely hopes that when they both live to be 90 years old, they can send letters across the country and be a pair of pen pals.

He didn't even dare to think about video conversations. It was too difficult to live in the era when video conversation technology became popular.

There is Zhang Sushang, a former athlete, who controls his diet and trains properly. Not to mention Zhang Sushang, who lost weight from 168 to 160 jins, Alexei also lost a little weight, and his weight dropped to 175 jins.

Once a person loses weight, his facial features will look clearer, so beauties with better bones will often give people a sense of rebirth when they lose weight. Zhang Sushang and Alexei belong to this category, and they are very eye-catching on the street.

When passing by a second-hand bookstore, Zhang Sushang ran in to search for books. He finished the chapter "Unrelated Twins" a few days ago. He is currently outlining the new chapter, but he will also read more Russian books to improve his writing skills.

Alexei stood at the door of the bookstore and bought the new newspapers of the day, including the St. Petersburg Morning Post. When the proprietress saw Alexei, her eyes lit up and she greeted him cheerfully.

"Good morning, handsome boy. Would you like a newspaper? It's thirty-two kopecks. Just give me thirty kopecks."

Alexei thanked him, opened the St. Petersburg Morning Post first, and muttered: "Today is Thursday."

The proprietress happily said: "Yeah, today is the turn of the week of "Detective Ilya", and what I am most looking forward to now is the story of Ilya. Although the stories in this section are very interesting, only "Detective Ilya" is in It made me laugh and remember the story forever, and I dare say that every Thursday, the sales of the St. Petersburg Morning Post increase by a certain amount.”

As the most important city in Russia except the capital Moscow, St. Petersburg has a large population, and the number of people who can read is among the top three of all cities in Russia, which means that newspapers sell well here.

But since the publication of "Detective Ilya", the sales volume of the St. Petersburg Morning Post has increased by at least [-] to [-] copies every Thursday, and this number is still increasing.

Alexei smiled. For some reason, the proprietress made him happier when she exaggerated the story of Su Shang than when she praised him for being handsome.

The newspaper not only has the story of "Detective Ilya", but also has a special comment column at the bottom. Every week, a comment written by a critic specially invited by the newspaper will be published, as well as two to three letters from readers of the previous week.

When your own newspaper invites people to praise its articles, it is natural to say how to say it well, and the letters from readers are much more interesting.

[When I first saw the story of "Detective Ilya", I just thought it was another funny and interesting story, but as the plot developed, I found that the author's control of the article is quite good, there is no redundant text in the whole article, At the end of the first story, the two protagonists' discussion about whether the criminal is pitiful is also thought-provoking. 】

[This is a true detective story dressed in comedy. The idea of ​​exchanging murders is novel and bold, and it reflects reality. The design of female characters in the article is also very rare. They may not be beautiful, have no noble background, and have no ambiguity with male characters. , but people remember them, I think the author should be an equalizer. 】

[I have no other thoughts, but I have a deep memory of that donkey. It is a strong and smart donkey. I have decided that my son and grandson will be called Boris in the future! 】

Alexei watched the last comment and fell silent.

In fact, in foreign countries, it is common for three generations of father, son, and grandson to have the same name. For example, Alexei had a classmate named Ivan Ivanevich Ankosky. It can be seen from the patriarchal name in the middle that his father and him have the same name, which is the so-called quadratic of Ivan. It is said that there is also a cubic of Ivan in the mathematics department next door.

When Zhang Sushang ran out, he was holding a pile of books in his hand: "I'm done, let's go."

Alexey put the newspaper in the inner pocket of his coat, hugged some books for Zhang Sushang, and asked as he walked: "Your novel is very popular, the newspaper office proposed to open a special section for you, serialized every day." Why don't you accept your novel?"

He has seen Zhang Sushang's writing speed. He can write a day's worth of serialization in an hour. By the way, he edits an article. Every time he writes the manuscript several days in advance, throws it aside, and waits for a few days. When the editor Tian came to the door, he handed it over directly, which seemed to be quite spare.

Zhang Sushang shook his head: "Now the money we earn is enough for us to eat meat every day, wear warmer clothes, and save a sum of money. I think it's enough to spend."

You must know that as long as he keeps updating, he can earn at least 200 rubles a month, and the editor is planning to pay him another manuscript fee. Presumably, by the end of "Detective Ilya", he can save up all the expenses he spent in college for several years. I can bring some money.

"Writing novels is just my way of living in the short term. Instead of spending too much time on writing, I want to concentrate on studying and translating some books." Zhang Sushang sighed: "You know, my Russian is very good , but my compatriots are still struggling with Russian language teaching, and we all want to bring more knowledge back to China, so I have to work harder at this time."

Studying medicine is a very tiring thing. Zhang Sushang is just exceptionally talented in language, but he himself is not the kind of student who can learn classroom knowledge at a glance, and has always been No. 1 in the exam. Yes, he recently Only then did I know that Alexei's grades are super good. No wonder he is the teacher's favorite and can support himself with scholarships.

It’s all here, Zhang Sushang has to master the knowledge of this major before he can return to China, this is a matter of principle, while Jiang Jinghu, Wu Yeming, and Li Yuan have no problem studying, their Russian is not good, but they are desperate, Every day, the three of them squatted head to head under the street lamp to review together, and their eyes were going to burn out.

They are the pillars of the country in the future. Zhang Sushang really couldn't bear to see them tossing around like this, so he simply bought all their textbooks, translated Chinese in advance every day, and usually went to make up Russian for everyone, striving to conquer the language as soon as possible. close.

Fortunately, those who can go abroad to study these days are smart people who can learn everything quickly, and they will all be champions in future generations. Zhang Sushang estimates that before the end of this semester, the three of them will be able to catch up with their Russian proficiency.

Thinking of this, Zhang Sushang looked up at the gray sky, and said softly: "Sunny days will always come."

Alexei didn't know why, so he only responded.

When he arrived at the door of the classroom, Zhang Sushang unexpectedly found a group of people gathered here. Zhang Sushang, who was holding a pile of things, couldn’t squeeze into the classroom. Daniel, who was sitting in the back seat, was also blocked at the door, and his shoes fell off. Only.

He went over to help kick Daniel's shoes into the empty space. Daniel thanked him and lowered his head to put on the shoes, while Zhang Sushang tiptoed to look inside the classroom: "What happened?"

"It's Ivan A's brother who came to see him." Someone spoke behind Zhang Sushang's back. He looked back and found that it was Ivan B.

There are 3 Sergeys and 4 Ivans in their classroom. It is too difficult to remember their father names one by one. Professor Yevgeny didn't remember them, and directly added ABCD to their names to distinguish them.

In Zhang Sushang's memory, Ivan A was a small young man with a good family background, less than 1.6 meters five by visual inspection, while Ivan B in front of him was a well-informed freckled boy who wanted to know some school gossip. Ask him that's right.

He asked Ivan B curiously: "Is his brother someone special?"

Ivan B showed an exaggerated expression of surprise when he heard the words: "Qiuka, I know you usually focus on studying, but why don't you even know this?"

Daniel also stood up right now, and said to Zhang Sushang: "Ivan A's brother is Misha Platov, and he was the runner-up in the last Olympic Games!"

That's the Olympic runner-up!

Zhang Sushang replied calmly: "Oh, so he is an athlete. He is very famous? Which sport is he in?"

Daniel replied: "He is in the men's figure skating event. Figure skating is an ice sport. Athletes wear skates with skates to perform on the ice. They need to spin, slide and jump. And this event is divided into Three small items..."

He was afraid that this bumpkin classmate from China would not know what figure skating was, so he started popularizing science.

Zhang Sushang added calmly: "I know men's singles, women's singles, and pairs."

In the 21st century, there are four small events under figure skating, and the fourth is ice dancing, which was included in 1976.

By the way, pair skating was included in the Winter Olympics in 1924, the first Winter Olympics. Before that, there were only two figure skating events in the Olympics—men's singles and women's singles. .

Daniel froze for a moment: "You know what?"

Zhang Sushang: "Of course I know, I also skate."

Ivan B and Daniel looked at each other with doubts on their faces. First of all, since they knew Zhang Sushang, this person had never been on ice skating. You must know that the temperature in St. Petersburg was below zero until yesterday. The school The lake inside is frozen solid, and many people will go up to play after class.

Secondly, since Zhang Sushang also skates, why doesn't he even know the Olympic runner-up in this event?Even if he only remembers the name of the champion like some people, wouldn't he be curious to know that there is a world number two athlete here?

Then they saw Zhang Sushang began to tiptoe into the classroom again: "Hey, who is that Ivan A's brother? There are too many people, I can't see it."

This is the men's singles runner-up in the first Winter Olympics in 1924!Thinking of this, Zhang Sushang's eyes lit up.

If in the 21st century, if he wanted to meet these ancient masters in the figure skating industry, he would have to find their tombstones. How exciting it is to see the living version now!

Ivan B and Daniel suddenly realized that this person was still curious, but his reaction was a bit slow.

At this moment, the professor who taught the human body structure appeared. It was a man wearing a coat and as strong as a bear. He yelled: "What are you doing here?"

The crowd at the door of the classroom dispersed one after another, and Zhang Sushang, Daniel, and Ivan B were able to squeeze into the classroom. At this time, a handsome young man with brown hair and blue eyes, about 1.6 meters tall, happened to pass by Zhang Sushang.

They looked at each other for a second, and Zhang Sushang smiled at him.

Hello, senior.

The runner-up of the World Youth Championship in 2053, I send my greetings to you across 130 years.

The author has something to say:

Pikachu's father has a special medal room, which is full of gold medals from various A-level competitions, including two Olympic gold medals, a precious silver medal, and three team bronze medals.

Moreover, as a direct descendant of the best figure skating school in China, Qiuqiu's division also has several Olympic champions and runners-up, plus those old opponents who were at the same time as his father, Qiuka has really seen many Olympic athletes. Champion, runner-up, third runner-up, for a while he thought that everyone in his circle of relatives and friends won a gold medal in the A-level competition, and he was the only one who didn't have it... As the saying goes, I have seen too many big men, and the children are numb.
