The King of Variety Entertainment

Huang Qinian looked at these players, Zhang Xingyu, former captain of Tsinghua University Rowing Team 1, helmsman Song Guoqiang, No. A love for rowing. ?

Now the two sides sat in two piles, and Yang An acted as the host. He asked the captain Zhang Xingyu curiously: Xingyu, how did you join the Tsinghua University rowing team?

Zhang Xingyu is embarrassed to pick his head: I am a sports student. I played basketball very well in high school. In the selection of Tsinghua Winter Camp, I applied for the basketball major. After I finished the test, Coach Li Ronghua came and called me To test the sports indicators of rowing. I didn’t understand at the time, what? Rowing? I thought it was a motorboat, so I went there when I was so happy. I was still thinking, motorboat is also a Tsinghua project? Nothing wrong with it, As long as I can go to Tsinghua University, playing basketball and driving a motorboat are the same thing... So I was successfully admitted to the rowing major...

Ha ha ha ha!

The audience applauded and laughed, and several people laughed crookedly. It turns out that there is such a hidden thing, and I have never heard of it before. It is so funny.

Huang Qinian fell into the memory, and said with a smile: Coach Li Ronghua is my deputy, and she did this out of necessity! When we took over the rowing team of Tsinghua University, we had just lost to Peking University in the previous competition. Formed a new team, quickly achieved results, but suffered from the lack of suitable candidates, so we had to select the best candidates from among the outstanding candidates who applied for Tsinghua University. I remember that the first batch of your team members were all big men with a height of 19°, or with an arm length of 19°. , most of them are students applying for the basketball major!

Almost all!

We were the tallest group of students at Tsinghua University.

At that time, some people thought that we were majoring in models from Tsinghua University, haha!

Everyone else laughed. It is true that half of the members are people who like to play basketball. It is really helpless to be tricked into majoring in rowing.

Yang An asked again: The first time you participated in the rowing competition between the two schools, do you still remember the lively scene at that time?

This question aroused everyone's memories, everyone talked about it in a hurry, and finally handed it to the captain Zhang Xingyu to summarize and reply.

Zhang Xingyu said a little excitedly: At that time, the competition was too lively. The Internet had just developed at that time. As soon as the competition day was confirmed, our Shuimu Tsinghua BBs, and their Beijing University, all started to hype a week in advance! Two The school’s school newspaper, daily broadcast, library, cafeteria, and the forest hall, are everywhere on the campus with promotional slogans for the Centennial Rowing Competition of the Northern Qing Dynasty, the scale is really huge...

What happened more than ten years ago seems like yesterday,

This group of 20-year-old rowing team members sat on the rowing boat in the Kunyu River with high spirits, holding the oars, and quietly waiting for orders. They wanted to win glory for the school, win honors, and prove that they are the strongest team.

On the day of the competition, the river was shimmering, the breeze was blowing, the sun was excellent, the sky was blue and the water was green, and the cheerleaders from the two teams packed dozens of school buses to help out. They tied the heads of Peking University must win and Tsinghua University must win on their foreheads. Wearing uniform short sleeves, waving school flags and shouting slogans, the most beautiful girls on the shore were jumping and cheering, making their 20-year-old blood run wild!

The 2,000-meter track area along the coast is full of citizens and spectators who have heard the news, as well as speedboats and helicopters circling in the air. CCTV sent a working team to record the whole process. Hundreds of media reporters chased after the interview, and the flashes kept on. , audiences across the country are watching them, these are two of the best universities in China for rowing PK, just like Cambridge and Oxford!

What a wonderful age it was!

What a simple game that was!

The rowing boat carrying their dreams!

In the roaring shouts, they are like flying arrows, riding the wind and waves on the river!

...

Memories are always happy, but you always have to face the reality after the memories, that is endless emptiness.

After communicating with the Xtreme Challenge Rowing Team, the former members of the Tsinghua University Rowing Team felt much more relaxed, and felt like they were begging future generations to help them realize their dreams.

After the indoor part was recorded, Yang An introduced: This is the Kunyuhe Party-mass Activity Center. Since we're here, let's go out for a stroll too!

Today, it was raining lightly in Zhongjing, and everyone was carrying umbrellas to conduct a field trip on the Kunyu River near the community activity center.

Yang An smiled: Everyone is invited to come today, not only to recall the past, but also to look forward to the future. Next, please get in the car, and we will go to a place together!

Huang Qinian and his team members were kept in the dark, not knowing what to do, so they could only get on the car blindly.

The directors didn't remind them. It wasn't until the bus got on the highway and headed straight for Qingshan Lake that captain Zhang Xingyu remembered it and exclaimed, Are you going to the National Rowing Team Training Center?

That's right, Zhongjing Qingshan Lake Sports Training Center, the home court of the national rowing team is located here. Zhang Xingyu and his party are very excited, and Huang Qinian is a little uneasy. The closer he is to Qingshan Lake, the more at a loss what to do.

Director Yang, let's just go like this, isn't it good? It's not justified...

Song Guoqiang is a small and thin man. He used to be a helmsman. After graduation, he changed his career and worked as a salesman in a sporting goods company. He gradually climbed to the position of store manager of a branch store.

Yang An smiled and asked back: What's wrong? We are all in the same business!

Song Guoqiang smiled sarcastically: You can barely be regarded as colleagues now, but the few of us have left this industry long ago.

Yang An disagreed, pulled Zhang Xingyu over, and said, Why leave this industry? Zhang Xingyu was still doing commentary on the CCTV Sports Channel. A few years ago, he was the commentator for the four rowing champions in the Beijing Olympics. You know how excited he was at that time. How exaggerated is it?

The people listening next to him laughed, and Sha Bei's voice was the loudest: He and Mr. Huang Jianxiang were able to fight for the great Italy back then! They both shouted broken!

Zhang Xingyu was a little embarrassed: Oh, I was really excited at the time. Who is not excited about the first Olympic gold medal for the Chinese rowing team? We have struggled all our lives to get it. It is also great to see our compatriots get it. of!

Yang Andao: Look, Zhang Xingyu is the host of the sports commentary, Liu Lei is still the coach of the rowing and sailing club on the Weihai side of Qingdao Island, and you guys, although they no longer major in rowing, they are still working with sports. Related! Why are you embarrassed to go? Let me tell you, many of the individual coaches of the current national team are your juniors! You seniors go to visit your juniors, it’s justified! 8
