That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 151 She is self-aware

When Li Ye stood at the high jump competition venue, he found that the high jump event was surprisingly popular.
The number of students participating in the competition is more than three times that of other competitions such as long jump, javelin and shot put.

But Li Ye soon heard a person's name and knew the reason.

"Look, he actually used the back-over style to cross the pole, exactly like Zhu Jianhua,"

"Yes! I also want to learn how to memorize the leapfrog style, but I can't learn it. I might as well use the leaping style to jump high!"

"Forget it, I'm the prince of high jump, it's not that easy to learn, I'll just use my prone position!"

[It turned out to be Zhu Jianhua? 】

Li Ye finally heard about this name that cannot be avoided in flower farming and athletics, but has been almost forgotten by the public in later generations.

It can be said that the name Zhu Jianhua, in some respects, should be discussed alongside Liu and Su, two Asian flying figures.

Zhu Jianhua, a Shanghai-based high jumper, has jumped a height of 2.30 meters and is the Asian record holder for men's high jump.
In the near future, he will break the world record three times in a row, win many world-class competitions, and become the first track and field Olympic medalist in Zhonghua.
Even the Associated Press published an article saying that Zhu's leap was like one billion flower people, leaping over the height of the world.

It can be said that in the early 80s, Zhu Jianhua's world record was regarded as a symbol of the rise of Zhonghua. He himself was also the "national hope" of Zhonghua's first Olympic track and field gold medal.

In an era when people are desperately craving for national self-confidence, Zhu Jianhua's name is naturally well-known and admired by many young people, and even the "high jump fever" has emerged.

For example, for this sports meeting, three people from Li Ye's economics department signed up. In addition to him, there were also Fu Lianbing and Xiang Weiguo.

Both of them are tall and thin. Fu Lianbing is a few centimeters taller than Li Ye. Xiang Weiguo is also 1.7 meters tall and weighs about [-] kilograms. They are both considered to be more suitable athletes for high jump events. .

"Li Ye, how high can you jump?"

"I don't know! It must be less than two meters!"

"Are you really a big brother? Can you leave some way for others to survive?"

"That's right, out of the three sentences spoken by the girls in the class now, one sentence is about you, Li Ye.

If you show off like this again, everyone is going to expel you from the class. Hey, think carefully. "

The three of them usually play well, and they all know Li Ye's name as "the first brother in dormitory 209" through Sun Xianxian, so they don't take it lightly when they tease him, and they despise sarcasm.

But Li Ye can really jump over two meters. If he doesn't hide his clumsiness or keep a low profile, it is not impossible to jump two meters to one or two meters.

If you want to get higher, you may need to carry out systematic professional training. After all, professional competition and hobby are two different things.
It is true that Li Ye, a bad guy, has physical conditions, but making further progress requires technical skills.

At this time, a contestant from the foreign class next to him chuckled and said, "If you can jump two meters, we won't have to jump anymore. I'll give you the No. 1 spot."

Li Ye looked at the man and laughed: "I said less than two meters, 1.9 meters nine is less than two meters, isn't 1.2 meters five also less than two meters?"

"."

"Hahaha~"

Many classmates heard Li Ye's words and laughed.

Children of this era have a really low point of laughter.

Fu Lianbing smiled and said: "Hey, Li Ye, what you said can be said in cross talk."

Li Ye nodded: "You're right. I can't survive in the economic circle anymore, so I'll change my career to cross talk. You all have to buy tickets to come see me."

"Okay, let's just go to the zoo and watch the monkeys."

"Hahaha~"

"."

Li Ye was speechless. It was too easy to be killed when joking with people with high IQs.

At this time, Wu Runfu, who was in the same dormitory, suddenly squeezed over and clicked his tongue at Li Ye.

"Li Ye, you are not simple. Your legs are weak after running 3000 meters, right? Can you do the high jump again? Don't you want your reputation to be ruined for the rest of your life?"

Li Ye smiled and punched him and asked, "Then what are you doing here?"

Wu Runfu said with a strange look on his face: "How new is it? I'm here to participate in the high jump competition?"

This time it was Li Ye's turn to be strange, and Fu Lianbing and Xiang Weiguo were also strange.

Wu Runfu is a little over 1.7 meters tall and weighs at least 160 kilograms. To be honest, the high jump event is really not suitable for him. He should choose a strength event.

So Li Ye said: "I really didn't know, you like high jumping?"

But Wu Runfu shook his head and said seriously: "No, I like Zhu Jianhua."

Fine!Idol behavior also does not distinguish between generations.

"No. 238 Wu Runfu"

"To!"

The teacher called Wu Runfu's name, and the 209-year-old student ran over excitedly.

Run-up, take-off, and bumping the pole all failed to pass 1.6 meters.
But he was not discouraged at all and participated happily and sincerely.

Li Ye and several classmates applauded and gave him encouraging applause.

Xiang Weiguo and Fu Lianbing also participated in the competition, but they did so reluctantly.

It wasn't until the first brother Li Ye came on stage that the teacher in charge of recording the results suddenly brightened his eyes.

He and the student who crossed the pole with his back showed a posture of not giving in to each other, alternating with each other to gain height.

1.7 meters, 1.8 meters, 1.9 meters, both people showed good physical functions and impeccable movements, arousing bursts of applause and praise.

By the time Li Ye and the classmate named Ruan Zhisheng were about to reach a height of 1.9 meters, hundreds of people had gathered on the high jump venue. Zhen Rongrong, He Dazhuang, and even the always calm Wen Leyu came over.

The two have locked in the first and second place in the high jump in this year's school sports meeting, but everyone is looking forward to whether a new "Xiao Zhu Jianhua" will be born.

But when it came to 1.9 meters, Li Ye suddenly missed it, while Ruan Zhisheng passed it in one go and easily.

Ruan Zhisheng is nearly 1.9 meters tall, much taller than Li Ye, who is 1.8 meters tall. Moreover, his movements are impeccable, showing strong skills and physical flexibility. He is obviously well-trained.

Seeing that Li Ye was a little discouraged, Zhen Rongrong hesitated and ran to Li Ye to encourage: "Come on Li Ye, you can do it!"

Li Ye nodded awkwardly and exchanged a look with Wen Leyu.

[Tell me, what’s going on? 】

[No situation, really no situation! 】

In the second trial jump, Li Ye failed to touch the pole again.

"Let him jump again."

Several school teachers even temporarily changed the rules and asked Li Ye to do it again.

Ruan Zhisheng looked at Li Ye and said nothing, and the others would not be unconvinced. Anyway, no matter how he changed it, Li Ye was the second best and had nothing to do with them.

Zhen Rongrong and other girls even tried their best to cheer Li Ye on.

Everyone has read about Zhu Jianhua in the newspaper and knows that the world record is over [-] meters.
But Li Ye is not a professional athlete. At this moment, his performance is already twenty or thirty centimeters higher than that of ordinary students. If he undergoes professional training, there is always hope.

But Li Ye knew that unless he wanted to take the sports route in the future, he would have to stop at this moment.

If Wen Leyu hadn't been watching from the side and quietly waving her two little fists to cheer him up, Li Ye would have stopped on his own initiative when he was 1.8 meters 3000. If you run 10 meters in just over [-] minutes, your result will be a school-level record. But if you jump over two meters, you will reach the threshold of professionalism. You can't do it even if you don't practice.

One billion people need you!

But the path of professional athletes is really difficult, even more difficult than taking the Qingbei exam.

Everyone only saw Zhu Jianhua's success, but not his efforts and pressure, let alone those second and third runners.

Moreover, Zhu Jianhua's achievement at the world's top level is not only due to his own efforts, but also the result of training under the national sports system.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!

In his previous life, Li Ye heard his physical education teacher say that Zhu Jianhua's nutritional recipes were secrets that were almost as secret as Guo Jia's.

In other words, as long as you take the path of a professional athlete, you won’t even have to say what you want to eat in the future.

Forget about eating sea cucumbers, you just want to eat a peach when you are so greedy?

Haha, please become Sun Wukong and steal it!
Do you want to take a walk with your girlfriend and kiss her?
But pull it down!How many of the seven emotions and six desires must be cut off for you, otherwise you can maintain your masculinity and maintain your peak condition?
Even so, Zhu Jianhua was admired by countless people within a few years, but in the end he was ridiculed and reviled by people across the country because of an accident in the 84 Olympics. He did not win a gold medal but only a bronze medal.

Zhu Jianhua endured it himself and cried and regretted it when he came back to be interviewed by his superiors. However, his results were actually a breakthrough. Everyone in the superiors kindly comforted him, recognized his achievements, and gave him confidence and warmth.

But when Zhu Jianhua's mother went out to buy groceries, she was surrounded by a group of old ladies in Shanghai, who angrily forced her to "return the nutritional supplements that Guo Jia used to give to Zhu Jianhua."

oh~~
So Li Ye decided that enough was enough, as long as he could live up to Wen Leyu's expectant eyes. The thorny road of professional athletes should be left to Ruan Zhisheng, an introverted and silent child!
At two meters and ten, Ruan Zhisheng jumped over.

"Ah~"

This taciturn child, after getting up from the mat, finally waved his fist vigorously to vent his anger.

Li Ye just now put too much pressure on him.
Every time Li Ye passed the pole, he would win applause from all the girls. Even if he, Ruan Zhisheng, jumped higher, the applause would be a few hundred million less.

Two meters and ten is his most powerful counterattack.

"That Li Ye, dance again."

However, several teachers still refused to give up on Li Ye and insisted on letting Li Ye try jumping many times.

Not surprisingly, Li Ye couldn't jump over any of them, and his condition was getting worse and worse.

Finally, several teachers shook their heads and sighed.

They could see that Li Ye was not able to withstand psychological pressure well.

An excellent athlete is not only good in technique and strength, but also in mentality.

Just like table tennis, the national sport of flower growers, many outstanding players can kill everyone when training in the team, repeatedly defeating world champions.

But once on the world stage, I couldn't even perform at 50% of my level due to stress.

This kind of player, without exception, has become a "sparing partner" and an unknown grindstone.

The Swedish team, which once dared to grow flowers and compete with table tennis players in the world, once said with great envy: "It would be great if we could have a sparring team that grows flowers!"

In the end, several teachers chatted with Li Ye and asked him to adjust his mentality and take the test again in a few days.

Without competition, there is no progress. If you want to train Ruan Zhisheng, you must have high-level sparring partners, right?
"Li Ye, don't be discouraged. The teacher said you have great potential! Let's come back next year."

"That's right, that Ruan Zhisheng is half a head taller than you, so he's not very capable."

Zhen Rongrong and others were slightly disappointed, but they were all encouraging and comforting Li Ye.

But Li Ye smiled and said: "I'm not disappointed. No matter how high I jump, can I still compare to Zhu Jianhua?"

The next three years will be Zhu Jianhua's highlight moment, and Li Ye has no intention of competing with that kind of genius.

Everyone remembers the names of Liu Xiang and Su Bingtian. How many of them remember the other two players who walked onto the field with them?

"So Li Ye, you didn't try your best just now, right?"

"."

The sudden sound suddenly came from not far away, causing Zhen Rongrong and others around them to frown, while Wen Leyu, who had been quiet all this time, shook his eyebrows, and the cold aura gradually dissipated.

Li Ye turned his head and saw someone he hadn't seen for a long time.

Yue Mengmeng is a reporter at the Dongshan Education News Station in Beijing.

There was a tall boy standing next to her. Li Ye looked familiar to him.

After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that I had seen this boy's photo in the school's honor column.

"Reporter from Yue University, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. How could you have seen that I didn't try my best?"

Li Ye expressed his dissatisfaction with Yue Mengmeng. From the first time they met in Qingshui County, this female reporter always guessed Li Ye's details, and often guessed correctly, which made people unhappy without realizing it.

Yue Mengmeng looked at Li Ye with a smile and said nothing, her eyes rolling. She didn't know why, but she just liked to find out the details of Li Ye.

But when she saw Wen Leyu's cold expression, Yue Mengmeng immediately took a few steps back and restrained all her expressions.

The tall boy smiled and extended his hand to Li Ye.

"Reporter Yue is just joking. Li Ye, you don't have to worry about it. I am Zhu Xinping from the Dongshan Fellows Association. We had a gathering of Dongshan Fellows a few days ago. Why didn't you come? This is a bit lost in nostalgia!"

Li Ye shook hands with Zhu Xinping and said, "I'm really too busy these days, and I haven't had time to recognize my fellow villagers!"

Zhu Xinping smiled heartily and said: "Then you will miss a lot of fellow villagers. Fellow seniors like us are all busy and can't find people at all times. It will be difficult to get together again."

Li Ye said in surprise: "Are you already a senior?"

Zhu Xinping said: "Yes! I won't stay at school regularly in the future. Please come over this Friday and I will introduce you to a fellow junior who will take care of you in the future."

Li Ye happily agreed: "Okay, okay, I will definitely be there."

Li Ye felt that Zhu Xinping was very open and cosmopolitan.

In other words, he knows how to manage connections. He, Li Ye, is just a freshman. He is incomparable to the class of 79 who have been on the school's honor roll, but they still come over to chat with him.

The two chatted for a while. Zhu Xinping's eyes were obviously friendlier than before, and he felt that the trip was worthwhile. Li Ye, the "number one in the province", was much more mature than he expected.

When the two left, Li Ye noticed that Yue Mengmeng and Zhu Xinping were walking side by side, and the distance between them was less than thirty centimeters.

According to the standards of this era, this is a relationship that is more than friendship but not enough to be lovers.

"Huh~"

Li Ye suddenly felt that Yue Mengmeng seemed to have brought Zhu Xinping here to show off.

Show off to him Li Ye.

At this time, Wen Leyu silently posted over and said sarcastically: "She has been coming to the school frequently to interview Dongshan students for more than a month, but she has not interviewed you. Do you know why?"

Li Ye said calmly: "She thinks I am inferior to others!"

Zhu Xinping will soon graduate and start working. The Chinese department is still popular, and there is a high probability that he will enter a ministry-level unit and start with a pen.

And he, Li Ye, is just a seedling, and it takes four years to develop!
"Humph, she is just self-aware."
