Chapter 100 Opening Battle
It was about an hour's drive from Shuiyun to Yantai. The bus left Shuiyun No.1 Middle School at about 7 a.m. and arrived at Yong'an Basketball Stadium at about 8:30 a.m. The competition opened at 9 a.m., so Xu Jianye hurriedly invited the team members to gather as soon as he got off the bus.
The development of mass sports in Yantai is still very common. Therefore, although it is only a basketball game for high school students, there are still many spectators who enter with tickets. Whether this ticket is given or not, their ability to watch the game is itself a support for school sports.
The work of the organizing committee of the competition is still meticulous. Before Xu Jianye came to him, a staff member with a badge took the initiative to greet him. After politely greeting, he asked, "Are you a team to participate in the basketball game?"
"Yes, we are the basketball team of Shuiyun No.1 Middle School. May I ask who you are?" Xu Jianye nodded with a smile, took out the qualification certificate from his arms and handed it to the staff.
The staff took a look at it with both hands and handed it back to Xu Jianye and said, "I'm the staff of the organizing committee of this event. My surname is Yang. Please follow me. The opening ceremony will start soon."
After a short song and dance performance, eight teams from Yantai lined up to set foot on the field. Of course, they were not about to compete. They were just forced to become part of the opening performance.
"What is this going to do? You don't want us all to do radio gymnastics, do you? Han Dengyun scratched his head and asked doubtfully.
"Can the opening ceremony be less than the leader's speech? Stupid pig!" Sun Feiying curled his lips disdainfully and said that whether the specifications of a competition are high or not depends on what level of cadre the leader who speaks is. Sun Feiying just took a look and seemed to have a deputy mayor sitting on the rostrum. Of course, this deputy mayor is the deputy mayor of Yantai City and a serious deputy department-level cadre, so this basketball game The specifications are actually OK.
"By holding basketball games, we can enrich our students' after-school life and exercise their bodies. At the same time, basketball is a collective sport and a good way to reflect the spirit of unity and cooperation of students. It can cultivate students' collective honor and create a united and upward atmosphere..."
The leader of this open-mouthed student is obviously educational. Although he looks kind-looking and amiable, he is also a lot of official airs.
Yan Lingfeng yawned boringly. What he was most annoyed was this kind of lengthy official speech. The old lady's foot wrap was smelly and long, but he couldn't smell it. There are many people who feel the same way as him. The leaders above are eloquent, and the team members below are also eloquent. Few people are really listening to him.
It's not easy to wait for the leader to put down the microphone, but another leader to hypnotize. An old lady's foot wrap is not long enough, so it's wrong to have another one.
"Next, Chairman Wang of our event organizing committee will talk about the rules of the competition. I hope you can listen carefully and familiarize yourself with them in advance!"
The host's words immediately calmed down the noisy team members. They could not listen to the leader's speech carefully, but the rules of the game must be heard. After all, it is closely linked to their interests.
"The competition time of this competition is divided into four sections, with a 10-minute break and a 20-minute break between the festival. There is an extra time, that is, if the two teams draw in regular time, there will be an overtime of 5 minutes each session, 5 minutes each time, until it is divided. Until the victory. Each team has a pause in each quarter, and there is also a pause in overtime. There is no limit on the number of replacements in each quarter, and there are two referees and two recorders in each game. A player who commits five fouls or two technical fouls in a game will be sentenced to leave the court. After the whole team commits four fouls in each quarter, the subsequent fouls will be punished twice by the opponent. Players and behaviors that maliciously foul in the game will be punished to varying degrees depending on the severity of the situation.
This leader is actually not like a leader. His words are concise, and it took less than 5 minutes to introduce the rules and requirements related to the game.
The host picked up the microphone again and invited the final leader to speak. He was also the deputy mayor with the highest official hat present today. The deputy mayor looked at the players on the field with a baby elephant face and solemnly, and said in a soft voice, "Good morning, students and audience! First of all, on behalf of the Yantai Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, I would like to express the importance attached to this basketball event. Mass sports and campus sports are all important parts of China's national fitness. Our students should be the pillars of the all-round development of morality, intelligence and physic, not the flowers that can't be seen in the greenhouse. Regarding this competition, I put forward the following requirements. First of all, the participating teams must keep in mind that friendship comes first and the game comes second! Second, the game must be conducted under the purpose of fairness, fairness and openness. The referee must strictly and impartially enforce the law. Players and coaches on both sides of the game must respect all the referee's judgments, and must not attack, interfere with the referee, or play match-off. The third point..."
Vice Mayor Lin Lin always said ten points, but after he finished his first point, almost no one listened to it. The bullshit "friendship first, the second in the game". If that's the case, why don't you just set up the championship? Isn't it all over?
After the deputy mayor's speech, the next step is to draw lots. Although everyone doesn't know much about the strength of each team, there will always be high and low scores. If you are lucky enough to draw a weaker opponent, it will be a step closer to the championship.
The teams participating in this basketball game are exactly eight, two or two teams. After one win or lose, there will be a top four teams.
First, the two teams that were selected will have an opening match, and Shuiyun No. 1 Middle School was just drawn out. Their opponent is Yantai No. 2 Middle School, which represents the economic development zone, a well-known "hundred-year famous school". Of course, this "name" refers more to education and teaching. As for their basketball level, it is not OK.
The other three groups of match also quickly surfaced. Long Island No. 6 Middle School drew Yantai No. 3 Middle School, Laiyang No. 1 Middle School, and Mouping Yuying Middle School drew Longkou No. 1 Middle School.
After the draw, the players gathered on the field quickly dispersed, and the opening match was about to begin.
Xu Jianye greeted the team members, with unconcealed tension on his face. Although the number of spectators at the scene was not full, the stadium that could accommodate 5,000 people also sat 60% or 70%. Xu Jianye has never had such an experience of commanding the competition in front of so many people. Although he vowed to win the championship in the car, in fact, he didn't have much confidence in his heart. Knowing himself and his opponent can be invincible, but he knew nothing about his opponent's situation.
Despite this, Xu Jianye took a long breath and tried to calm his heartbeat. If he can't calm down, can he still expect the players to play calmly? His eyes slowly swept over the team members and said in a low voice, "In 10 minutes, you will play. All the sweat and efforts before will be rewarded at this moment. Are you nervous?"
"I'm not nervous, coach, just take a look. As long as you let me play, we will definitely show our power, be furious, and defeat our opponents magnificently!"
Han Dengyun patted his chest confidently and replied that he was really not nervous. As a relatively simple person, he always had an unyielding heart. Even if his opponent was the invincible Emperor Shitian, he would think of a way to become a combination of Fengyun.
"What about you?" Xu Jianye habitually ignored Han Dengyun, and he finally understood that the more you paid attention to this guy, the more energetic he became, so the best way to deal with him was to ignore him.
"I'm a little nervous, hehe." Yan Lingfeng said frankly that what he said was indeed from the bottom of his heart. Although he lived ten or twenty years longer than his teammates, he had never experienced such a big scene.
"To be honest, I'm also a little nervous, but this is normal. I believe that our opponents are also nervous now. Now it depends on who can turn the tension into the motivation of the competition in the shortest time and who can win the final victory. I won't say much about the importance of this game. You should know that if we lose this game, we will lose everything, all our efforts will be in vain, and all our sweat will not be rewarded. So, go up and work hard and don't leave any regret.
Xu Jianye has already mobilized before the race in the car, so after just saying a few words, he transferred his mind to the game itself and took the tactical board. He frowned and thought, "I just observed our opponents. Their height is generally not very high, so I boldly guess that they must be It will focus on the outside line and suppress us through active running and fast passing the ball. Han Dengyun, did you just shout to play?
Han Dengyun immediately nodded with a flattering smile and said, "Yes, coach! As long as you give me a broken basket, I can return a basket of eggs! Trust me, I won't be wrong!"
"Well, since you said so, I'll let you play! Other starters are Li Yi, Yan Lingfeng, Sun Feiying and Zhao Senming. We focus on the inside line in the first quarter. Senming, you should pay attention to the rhythm of the game and don't let your opponent lead our nose. Give more balls to the inside teammates for singles, so that even if we can't score, we won't give them a chance to counterattack quickly, understand?
Zhao Senming nodded calmly. Compared with Bi Xiangyang and Wang Hanbo, his biggest advantage lies in his control of rhythm. In the team, he will always be the calmest one. Xu Jianye will be relatively relieved to let him play and organize the attack.
As for Sun Feiying and Yan Lingfeng, they are the most stable among all the players, so Xu Jianye arranged for them to start first.
Good morning, viewers in front of the TV. Welcome to the opening match of the 2004 Yantai Satellite TV Life Channel's first high school basketball game. The two sides are Yantai No. 2 Middle School and Shuiyun No. 1 Middle School. Now the players of the two teams have warmed up. According to my on-site inspection, Yantai No. 2 Middle School is generally shorter than their opponents, which also makes the game full of suspense before the game starts. As we all know, basketball is a giant's sport. The so-called inch long and one inch stronger, and one inch short and one inch dangerous. We are also very curious about which team will be stronger. Mr. Deng, I don't know what you think?
Although Xiao Cui, the ace host of Yantai TV, is the first time to explain sports games, he does not have any sense of astringency. After all, he is also a basketball enthusiast. In his spare time, he watches a lot of NBA broadcasts. This commentary task was also asked by him. As a youth-eating variety show host, if he wants to continue his hosting career, he must broaden the scope of his hosting, and explaining sports is undoubtedly a good choice.
Sitting next to him is Deng Mingliang, a basketball professor at Yantai Sports University. He is in his fifties this year and has been playing basketball for most of his life. Although there are certain reasons for a living, it is more because of his simple love. Knowing that the TV station was going to broadcast the event live, he took the initiative to go to the TV station and recommended himself to come to this job. After all, sitting in the commentary table and watching the game more clearly than the audience.
"Before the official start of the game, all speculations are objective. These two teams are strange to us. We don't even know their names, so I think it's not too late to judge after the game starts."
Deng Mingliang responded with an authentic Jiao Dongfangyan. His eyes turned back and forth on the warm-up team members of the two teams like a torch. He looked forward to find a good seedling and was scheduled to bring it back to school to cultivate by himself.
Looking at the team members warming up on the field, Xu Jianye frowned tightly. He suddenly realized a very fatal problem, a problem that could make them hate defeat, but now it was too late to solve this problem. He sighed heavily and prayed in his heart that his worries would not become a reality.
