The next evening, Su Zelin met Tao Min as promised.
Li Yanru also came to join in the fun.
The female moderators of the Finance College BBS are somewhat literary and artistic. They are always particularly interested in talented boys, especially handsome boys.
The venue was set at the stadium, which was suggested by Su Zelin. This place is deserted and relatively quiet at night. There are at most a few furtive couples around, and they are afraid of being disturbed, so of course they won't make any noise.
Before going out, Su Zelin had already called Tao Min. He carried his guitar to the stadium and waited for a while, and then the two senior students showed up.
"Hi, Senior Sister Tao, Senior Sister Li!"
Su Zelin went to meet him.
"Brother, I didn't keep you waiting for long, did I?"
Tao Min said embarrassedly.
"It's okay, haha, I just got here a while ago!"
Su Zelin took out a stack of photos that he had prepared long ago and handed them over.
Then I opened my phone, and with the dim light from the screen, I could see that the person in the photo was indeed the gangster performing on the stage of a cultural evening with a guitar on his back.
Moreover, the stage style and layout of each photo are somewhat different. The words "a certain cultural evening" on the banner can also reflect that they are indeed different performances, May Fourth, New Year's Day, welcoming the new year...
Eight photos, a total of eight different cultural evenings.
Usually, high schools hold cultural evenings about three times a year.
In three years, that’s nine times. Su Zelin said he missed one time, and he wasn’t exaggerating.
The only thing he didn't attend was the first cultural evening party when he just entered high school. That was a welcome party for freshmen. All the freshmen were just spectators, and the performers were seniors.
"Junior, you are so amazing!"
In fact, even if Su Zelin had not produced the stack of photos as evidence, Tao Min would have already believed it. After all, no one would brag about such a thing, and it would be very embarrassing to be exposed.
What's more, although this junior likes to brag, he mainly brags about unimportant little things. He is still down-to-earth when he shouldn't brag, otherwise the people in the Finance Management Class would not have elected him as the monitor.
"Great talent, let us feel it first!"
Li Yanru on the other side also spoke impatiently.
"OK!"
Su Zelin carries a guitar on his back.
Well, what's the whole song
Not only must the song be played beautifully, it must also have a show-like effect.
Got it, that’s it!
Come to think of it, I don’t really like that song, but at this point, its performance effect should be explosive, haha!
Thinking this in his mind, Su Zelin gently plucked the steel strings.
As soon as they heard the prelude, Tao Min and Li Yanru's pupils contracted.
Hey, this is...
Soon, Su Zelin played and sang the entire piece by himself.
"Senior, how is it?"
He asked with a smile.
Tao Min and Li Yanru woke up as if from a dream. The two girls went crazy in an instant and clapped their hands so hard that their hands were almost broken.
"Great, great, that's great. I didn't expect you could even play this song!"
"This song has only been out for a short time, and you can already play the guitar so well, you are simply a genius!"
That song not only had a good effect on the show at the time, but also hit the girls' sore spots directly. As expected, the two girls were extremely excited.
"No, senior sister, my guitar skills are still a little behind Wu Bai, Pu Shu, Xie Ting Feng, and Huang Jia Ju."
Su Zelin said this modestly.
"Okay, junior, stop being so modest. You are an absolute genius!"
Li Yanru licked the hunzi for a while, then turned to her roommate and said, "Tao Min, I'm telling you, I have to see my junior's performance at the May Fourth Art Evening Party. If you don't choose her, I'll be angry with you!"
"Haha, don't worry. If my junior fails to be selected, it will be a loss for our Department of Economics and Management, and it will also be my dereliction of duty. It has to be him!"
Tao Min made the decision on the spot: "Junior, I'll sign you up right away."
Without waiting for Su Zelin to answer, she half-jokingly said, "I don't care. Even if you don't want to go, I have to let you go!"
From the initial test to the current question of who else but Su Ze Lin, Tao Min's attitude has undergone subtle changes.
Just because of the song Su Zelin just performed, now it is not just her who is providing others with an opportunity to attend the academy's cultural evening party, but the academy's cultural evening party will become more exciting with his participation.
Fortunately, I went to have that meal and discovered a gem!
I won’t look for other candidates for comparison. I feel there is no one more suitable than Su Zelin.
He is handsome, has a tall figure, and the song he just sang will definitely be a killer at the evening party.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Tao, for thinking highly of me. Since Senior Sister asked me to go, then I will go!"
Su Zelin responded very readily.
"Okay, then I'll report your list of candidates to the Art Department of the Academy tomorrow!"
“I’m really looking forward to hearing my junior perform on the big stage again!”
"Haha, I dare say that by then the whole hospital will go crazy for him!"
"… "
A few more days passed.
School of Finance, public course classroom.
May is getting closer and closer, with only a few days left.
Every May Day, the university is very lively.
First of all, it is statutory holidays and school holidays, which is something that everyone likes to see.
There are two consecutive festivals again, especially the May Fourth Youth Day, which is a festival for college students. Colleges and universities will hold activities to celebrate, and it will be very lively.
Therefore, the upcoming May Fourth Youth Day Gala has become the hottest topic in the whole school.
In addition, there is another topic that is no less popular than the May Fourth Movement.
That was the 2002 World Cup qualifiers.
The year 2001 was a historic year for Chinese football.
In October of the same year, the men's football team finally achieved a breakthrough by entering the World Cup.
In that match, the Chinese national football team faced Aman at the Wulihe Stadium in Fengtian.
In the 36th minute of the game, Atie made a long pass from the midfield to the penalty area, Apeng headed the ball into the penalty area, and Achen and Awei both scored.
Finally, Awei fell to the ground and shot the ball into the net.
This is the most glorious moment in Awei's career!
With a one-goal lead, the Chinese national football team finally won the game 1:0 and advanced from the top 10 two rounds in advance!
After forty-four years of waiting, countless cycles of hope and disappointment, the Chinese national football team finally realized their dream in Wulihe, broke out of Asia, and entered the World Cup finals!
When the generals and coaches hugged each other and celebrated wildly after the game, five big red words "We qualified" popped up on the CC**.
With today's broadcasting technology, those few words are just 5-cent special effects, extremely old-fashioned, and no different from the later fighting spirit turning into a horse. However, they made countless people cry at the time.
That night is definitely the most unforgettable memory in the lives of domestic football fans, perhaps even more unforgettable than first love.
More than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye. Many men have long forgotten the details of the night they ate the forbidden fruit, and feel that they just swallowed it in a hurry.
But if you talk to them about the match between the Chinese national football team and Aman in 2001, they can talk to you excitedly for hours without even stopping for half a minute to catch their breath.
It is said that many universities, high schools, junior high schools, and even elementary schools suspended classes and organized students to watch the game.
What's even more outrageous is that some teachers asked primary school students to write a review after watching the movie, which made those students who didn't even watch football at the time very angry. However, when they grew up, many boys would be grateful to the teacher for not letting them miss this epoch-making moment.
Unfortunately, in 2002, the Chinese national football team was defeated by the Sanguang Army.
Many fans foolishly and naively thought that the national football team's qualification marked the beginning of the heyday of summer football in China, but unexpectedly it was only a flash in the pan.
After a brief period of splendor, they waited for more than ten years, the boy became a father, and the son became a fan, but they still never waited for the second qualification.
However, it will take half a year for the Chinese national football team to qualify, and now it is only the preliminaries.
"Damn it! The Chinese national football team actually let a weak team like the Maldives score a goal. They are all losers!"
Zeng Kaiping was extremely excited and kept swearing.
Fans in later generations will think that the Chinese national football team lost.
That is not the case.
In the first World Cup group qualifier that just passed, the Chinese national football team defeated the Maldives 10:1, a complete victory.
However, the die-hard fans were not satisfied.
In the first stage of grouping, the Chinese national football team was placed in Group 9 with Pakistan, India and Maldives.
In this group, only India has some fighting power. Pakistan and Maldives are both real losers, especially Maldives. The whole team is so miserable that it doesn't even have a professional player.
In the 1998 World Cup qualifiers, the team was defeated by Iran and Kiersten with 17 and 12 goals respectively.
It is for this reason that fans feel that if the Chinese national team cannot win by 10 goals, it would be a failure.
"Alas, of the 43 shots in the game, only 16 hit the goal frame. Over 60% of the shots went to the defenders, and the midfielders and forwards were all sleepwalking. If this continues, I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic!"
Hou Yongjin is a gentleman, and his criticism is not as harsh as that of the spirited young man. His data analysis is well-organized, but he also keeps shaking his head and sighing.
Cai Wensheng added: "On the other hand, the Maldives team seized the only offensive opportunity of the entire game and succeeded in a sneak attack. If the number of shots by others was reversed, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
It would have been fine if the Maldives had attacked the goal a few more times and conceded one goal, but they broke the Chinese national team's goal with just one shot. As they were a purely amateur team, it can be said that they were honorable in defeat. It is said that after the goal was scored, the Maldives players were as happy as if they had won the championship. This is also what makes domestic fans most angry and disappointed.
"I told you long ago that Milu is no good. He should have hired a dog to coach him so that the Maldives wouldn't have scored against him. He should be fired as soon as possible!"
Zeng Kaiping was so angry that he even criticized the head coach.
The head coach of the Chinese national football team in 2001 was Milu, known as the "magic coach". Before coaching the Chinese national football team, he had led four different teams, namely Mexico, Costa Rica, the United States and Nigeria, to the top 16 of the World Cup.
However, after he took over as coach of the Chinese national football team, the "happy football" concept he proposed was questioned by the media and fans.
Because everyone thinks that players have to rely on closed, high-intensity training to achieve results before a big competition, but Milu leading the team is like playing, it's too much of a joke.
Moreover, in the 9 World Cup warm-up matches after the Asian Cup, except for a 5-1 victory over Siam, the Chinese national team had 2 draws and 6 losses in the other 8 games, which was a terrible record.
In addition, the team was scored against by the underdog Maldives in the first qualifying match, so fans felt that Milu was just a charlatan who was trying to take advantage of the situation.
"Third brother, what do you think?"
Zeng Kaiping criticized again and asked for Su Zelin's opinion.
Hunzi is also a football fan. Although he is not as loyal as the spirited young man, he still watches football frequently, especially big events like the World Cup, which he naturally cannot miss.
However, Su Zelin didn't say anything today, which was very strange.
In fact, Hunzi already knew the result, so he was not as excited as the others, and Su Zelin was thinking about something else just now.
For those who have been reborn, the World Cup is also an opportunity to make some money.
It’s a pity that football lottery was not launched until late October of that year, otherwise we could have played in the qualifiers.
This thing is not like other lotteries. Even if you bribe the referees to manipulate the rules, everyone can see the scores clearly.
There are underground dealers, but at most they can only make small profits.
If you bet too much, the dealer will simply refuse to pay or run away. You can't do anything about it.
Hearing this, Su Zelin came back to his senses and casually agreed: "Yes, yes!"
In fact, he didn't pay attention to what Zeng Kaiping said.
"You think Milu sucks too, right? Great minds think alike!"
Zeng Kaiping felt like he had met a soulmate.
The hunzi thought to himself, you are talking about the head coach.
Well, Milu is indeed not that good.
But after a dozen years, you will say it smells really good.
In this age of comparing worst to worst, there is no worst, only worse.
Even though Mi Lu has received mixed reviews and was praised by later generations as having the right time, place and people, he was still the first and only person to lead the Chinese national football team to qualify before his rebirth.
The results are there, and they are more convincing than anything else.
Hearing that almost all the boys in the classroom were talking about the Chinese national football team, the girls in 501 at the front were confused, and Jelly couldn't help but interrupt first.
"Why do you boys like football so much? Two groups of people run back and forth all day long. Sometimes they can't even score a goal for half a day. I feel like I'm almost bored to death!"
"We just enjoy the whole process. The result is not important!"
Su Zelin responded indifferently.
The girls thought that although the boy's words were explaining the appeal of football, they sounded weird and they felt there was no basis for their suspicion.
The boys all laughed ambiguously and suddenly became excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
"That's so insightful. Third Brother is Third Brother. He hits the nail on the head!"
Zeng Kaiping admires him very much. He is worthy of being his idol and is always so different.
"that is!"
"Don't worry about it!"
"… "
The boys became more active.
The little one laughed and scolded: "Hate it, you guys are talking about something else!"
"How is that possible? We are very serious, okay?"
The six villains denied it in unison.
"Cai Wensheng, these people are too bad, you can't learn from them!"
Popcorn threatened the young actor fiercely, fearing that Cai Wensheng would be contaminated sooner or later.
"Oh, I won't."
As the youngest, Cai Wensheng is still quite simple and can be said to be untainted by the mud.
"Boss, can't you just not go to the F1 racetrack for a day? If you keep going like this, it will distort the morale of our class!"
Luo Xi was helpless.
This can more or less be considered a part of Su Zelin's language art.
As soon as he opened his mouth and started driving, the atmosphere became lively.
"It's just a commentary. How could I have distorted the class atmosphere? Don't you see how harmonious and friendly our class is under my wise leadership, with everyone working together?"
Su Zelin thought to herself that girls like you are hypocritical. You say no but your bodies are very honest.
Every time we talked about those topics, they all giggled like little hens.
"Squad leader, do you prefer the happiness of scoring a goal or not scoring a goal?"
Ding Lina added fuel to the fire at the right time.
The five villains thought that Nanazi's angle of attention was very strange. Their eyes were all on Su Zelin, waiting to see how he would answer.
"It's all right, but no matter what, for me, I have to rush back and forth for 90 minutes. I'll feel comfortable if I sweat!"
Su Zelin said leisurely.
"But this requires a lot of physical strength. Some people collapse after just five minutes of running back and forth."
The five villains immediately clapped their hands in admiration, thinking what a brilliant answer, why didn’t they think of it!
When a group of young men and women were actively discussing the topic of "How Happiness Comes from the Ground", the class secretary Shen Dongyang came over and said, "Haha, after the public class is over, everyone in our Finance Management Class 1 will stay behind. We have two things to announce!"
The League branch secretary is a special position in the class. He is directly under the college Youth League Committee, engaged in league work and assists the class monitor in managing the daily life of the class.
Shen Dongyang was chosen later. In fact, Luo Xi was the most suitable candidate because she was the class beauty and also the Youth League Secretary in high school.
However, the position of the university league secretary is usually not held concurrently by other class leaders, and Hunzi pushed most of the affairs to her. As the deputy class monitor, Luo Xi is also very busy and cannot hold two positions.
"Secretary, what's the matter? Please tell me first!"
The girls asked curiously.
"You'll know after class. Anyway, it's a good thing!"
Shen Xiangdong kept it a secret: "I'll go inform the others first, that's all."
Everyone didn't pay any attention and continued talking about the World Cup until the bell rang and the instructor walked into the classroom.
…
Two public classes are finished.
After everyone from other classes had left the classroom, only the students from the Finance Management Class 1 did not leave.
Shen Dongyang walked to the podium and cleared his throat: "I'm sorry to waste your precious time. It won't be long!"
"Considering that the cafeteria has already sounded the call and everyone's stomachs are already protesting, I'll make this short!"
Everyone couldn't help but chuckle.
It seems that no one in this group of class leaders, from the monitor to the small group leaders, is serious.
Shen Dongyang added: "There are mainly two things. First, I got news from the Youth League Committee of the college that our class was rated as the advanced class group of the Economics and Management Department last semester. An announcement will be made to the whole college soon!"
As soon as the League Secretary said this, the audience became excited and applause and whistles sounded at the same time.
"Wow, our class is awesome!"
"Long live the Finance Management Class 1!"
"I'm so lucky to be in a class like this. I'll be proud of it if I tell anyone about it!"
"Haha, we have a class monitor like Axi, who is so powerful, and the other class leaders are also very powerful!"
"… "
Everyone cheered.
College students of this era are still quite naive and attach great importance to class honor.
When the classroom was a little quieter, Shen Dongyang continued with a smile: "The second thing is a piece of gossip I personally received from a friend in the Student Union's Arts Department. It is related to the upcoming May 4th Academy Arts Evening. Someone in our class has been selected to perform!"
The whole class was shocked again.
With so many people in the School of Finance, it is not easy to show up at the department's cultural evening party, let alone the school-wide cultural evening party.
"What a shame! So-and-so is going to the evening party in the academy!"
"This is a party for the whole school. Is there anyone like this in our class?"
"There are so many hidden talents in the finance management class. I feel like I am just a nobody 55555..."
"… "
After whetting everyone's appetite, Shen Dongyang said, "This person is our class monitor Su Zelin, and the class monitor's program is a guitar solo!"
All eyes fell on Su Zelin in unison, and there was an uproar.
This squad leader has been keeping a low profile for a long time.
Luo Xi is mainly responsible for the class affairs on weekdays. While making efforts, the class beauty also wins more limelight.
Unexpectedly, Su Zelin made a stunning debut and was directly performed on the big stage of the academy's cultural evening.
"Really, monitor, you're going to perform on stage?"
"Old Third, you've been so quiet. If it weren't for the League Secretary, we would have been kept in the dark!"
"The monitor is awesome, I look forward to the performance of the male god!"
"… "
The fact that Su Zelin has been silent for such a long time does not mean that his popularity has declined. On the contrary, everyone is looking forward to his performance.
Now that they heard the news, everyone was excited.
The class monitor performed on the evening party. He represented the entire department and naturally also represented Class 1 of the School of Finance. This was a great honor.
"It's okay. After all, it's not a big deal, so I didn't tell anyone."
Su Zelin is still a little pretentious.
Seeing the intense reactions of the students in the class, Luo Xi couldn't help but be shocked.
I should have thought it was him. The squad leader is really good at playing the guitar and his skills are amazing!
I thought I had performed very well during this period and could turn the tables and have a chance to overturn the huge mountain that was pressing on me.
It seems I'm overthinking.
Alas, don’t have any hope for these four years, just continue to be suppressed!
…
That evening, in the girls’ dormitory of Zhejiang University.
Qin Shiqing sat in front of the computer and logged into QQ.
This is also what she must do at this time every day.
However, after surfing for a while, the girl found that one of the avatars in the friend list was still gray, which made her a little disappointed.
It’s almost time, I’m just about to turn off the phone and go to study.
“Ding ding ding!”
There is a new message.
My heart is filled with longing: "Hi, Shiqing!"
Sunny: "Hello, Senior!"
This good friend named "悠悠我心" is not a senior girl from Zhejiang University, but from the School of Finance. Her name is Yan Qingyi. She also attended Jianglan No. 2 High School. She is one year older than Qin Shiqing. Both of them have been announcers, so they have a good relationship.
After entering university, she found Yan Qingyi’s contact information from the alumni association and added her on QQ. They would occasionally chat online and learned that the senior was doing well in the School of Finance and was already an executive of the school’s student union.
Youyouwoxin: "Let me tell you something about your childhood sweetheart. He may become famous soon, hehe."
Qin Shiqing became interested instantly.
Sunny: “Oh, what do you mean?”
"Su Zelin was one of the performers in our Finance College's May 4th Youth Day Gala!"
Sunny: "What, Senior, is it true?"
Qin Shiqing widened her eyes, the girl was very surprised.
This news was quite unexpected for her.
Although my childhood sweetheart is multi-talented and a frequent guest at high school cultural evenings, he missed the one he attended when he first entered high school for the entire three years.
However, it is not easy to get involved in the academy's cultural evening party.
After all, there are probably only two or three performer quotas for each department.
If we further break it down into each grade, there may only be one in the first grade.
I feel so proud of you: "Your childhood sweetheart is really amazing. He is the only one in the entire Department of Economics and Management who attended the party. As an alumnus of Jianglan No. 2 Middle School, I am proud of him!"
Yan Qingyi and Qin Shiqing are very familiar with each other. She learns that her junior is in the same class as and even neighbors with the famous gangster in No. 2 Middle School.
While the Art and Literature Department of the College Student Union was preparing for the May Fourth Gala, I accidentally discovered Su Zelin's name on the list of performers. Then I saw that he was from the Finance Management Class 1 of the Economics and Management Department. He was indeed Qin Shiqing's childhood sweetheart, so I mentioned it to her.
After chatting for a few sentences, Qin Shiqing ended the conversation.
Boss Su, you are awesome. You didn't even tell me about this!
I specially invited you to the Christmas party of Zhejiang University’s Public Administration Department last time.
The girl was unhappy.
The more you endure, the angrier you will get; the more you take a step back, the more you lose.
She immediately dialed her childhood sweetheart's cell phone from the dormitory landline.
After a few rings, the call was connected, and the lazy, hateful voice of the scoundrel came out of the receiver: "Hello, Qin Shiqing, what's up?"
Qin Shiqing snorted: "Nothing, I just haven't called you for a long time, can't we just chat for a while?"
Su Zelin was getting impatient: "Are you bored? I'm playing StarCraft with someone right now. It's a critical moment. If I don't talk to you anymore, then..."
"If you dare to hang, you're dead!"
Qin Shiqing's tone startled the gangster.
Su Zelin had never seen such a side of his childhood sweetheart, who seemed to be as gentle as water.
It turns out that Qin Shiqing is not always soft, and sometimes she gets hard...
"Qin Shiqing, are you okay?"
The gangster didn't dare to hang up the phone and asked cautiously.
After counting on my fingers, it seems that it is not time for the relatives to come yet.
Besides, even if relatives came, Qin Shiqing wouldn’t be so tough.
"Zelin, how are you doing lately?"
Qin Shiqing asked again.
"Very good, I sleep well and eat delicious food."
Su Zelin answered cautiously.
"Haha, have you participated in any campus activities recently?"
Qin Shiqing continued to ask.
"Now that you mention it, I actually did participate in an event!"
Su Zelin said without hesitation.
You are quite an honest boy.
Qin Shiqing thought to herself, and her voice became softer: "What activity?"
The gangster thought to himself when did this woman become so gossipy? Curiosity really killed the cat.
"There's a reading club in the literature club. I'm very popular in the club, so I was chosen as the representative."
Su Zelin was a little proud.
"That's it, what else?"
Qin Shiqing frowned.
“No more.”
"Really? Swear!"
"Well, Qin Shiqing, if I lie to you, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
Qin Shiqing moved to Bengbu.
Does this guy really dare to swear and lie with open eyes? Isn’t he afraid of retribution
"Got it, Boss Su!"
Qin Shiqing hung up the phone with a snap.
Su Zelin was confused.
It's really inexplicable. Is this woman angry today
What about Boss Su
Ah, my hearing loss problem is getting worse.
It must be an auditory hallucination!
Even the fact that Qin Shiqing was so fierce just now was just an auditory hallucination!
Su Zelin shook his head and continued playing StarCraft.
Zhejiang University, girls’ dormitory.
Qin Shiqing pouted her lips and sulked, and she had no mood to study.
After sitting like this for a while, her eyes suddenly lit up.
By the way, didn’t he come to our school’s last Christmas evening party to make a secret move
Don't think you're the only one who can use this trick!
snort!
…
