Return to 2002: Freestyle Superstar

Chapter 32 A Sensational Campus

"The champion is back!" Hu Jie saw Chen Ran and was the first to shout, "1500 US dollars is not enough to treat everyone to a nice meal."

Following this guy's big mouth, the eyes of the whole class instantly shifted to Chen Ran.

Suddenly, the class became extremely lively.

Even his class teacher, Teacher Yu, looked at Chen Ran with complicated eyes.

After all, in her teaching career, some students went to Tsinghua University and Peking University, and some students went to study abroad. But like Chen Ran, this was really the first time.

The ITF10K Hope Tournament, even the lowest level professional tournament, is owned by the International Tennis Federation. It is several levels higher than the previous Ningzhou Youth Tennis Championships.

The organizing committee immediately informed the junior high school where Chen Ran won the championship. Even the principal was confused at the time.

What kind of competition is this ITF10K Hope Competition?
The principal later inquired and found out that this was a competition under the International Tennis Federation, co-organized by the Chinese Tennis Association and the local Sports Bureau.

This is an international-level event, and even if players from the national tennis team participate, it will be difficult to win.

Soon, the news that Chen Ran won the championship spread in the school, and the whole school was shocked.

Since the establishment of Dongzhou No. [-] Junior High School, it is simply unheard of for a student to win an official international competition.

"Is this a homecoming?"

While Chen Ran was in a trance, Hu Jie ran over excitedly, holding his shoulder with one hand and waving the other up and down, shouting "Oh!"

The students around him also started making noises under the guidance of this guy, shouting "treat" constantly.

This guy is still as heartless as in his previous life, even when answering the questions for the high school entrance exam, he looks indifferent.

"Brother, you are much better than those trash from the national football team!"

"Don't talk nonsense about what level other people are playing and what level I am."

Chen Ran rolled his eyes and changed the topic: "Okay, if everyone is willing to go, I will treat you as a dinner for junior high school graduation."

If this guy knew that he had earned another 12, would he go crazy on the spot?
"Oh yeah!"

The whole class shouted.

"Teacher Yu, are you coming with us?" Chen Ran asked his class teacher, "Anyway, the original plan was for everyone to raise funds for a graduation dinner, so we might as well forget about it this time."

In junior high school for three years, she had always been very conscientious towards herself. Chen Ran would always show impatience at that time, but after a few years, she has matured, and when she looks back on it, she will regret it.

"Okay, let's call a few other teachers." Teacher Yu nodded after hesitating.

After that, Chen Ran sat back in his familiar position, having not been here for almost half a month.

His beautiful deskmate seemed to have a good face, but she hesitated to speak when she saw Chen Ran.

The two hadn't seen each other for half a month. Zhou Jing was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say. The atmosphere seemed a bit awkward for a while.

It was Chen Ran who spoke first and smiled slightly: "Zhou Jing, what do you think the score is? I guess Dongzhou Middle School doesn't have a big problem, right?"

The girl smiled brightly and made a "yeah" gesture: "I have answered some of the difficult questions correctly, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

It seems that history has changed after all. Is it because of me?

"Then we will continue to be in the same high school for the next three years." Chen Ran said with a smile.

"Yes!" Zhou Jing lowered her head, her voice was very soft, and a trace of rosiness flashed across her fair face.

After a while, the girl finally came back to her senses and asked: "When you go to high school, will you come to school, or will you often go out to participate in competitions?" Chen Ran said with a smile: "Studying is definitely necessary, but It’s not for the college entrance examination, we have jumped out of the circle of exam-oriented education.”

"Can universities also provide admission?" Zhou Jing's face showed envy, and her eyes shone.

Chen Ran replied truthfully: "I have skipped the level of national-level athletes and can be directly rated as an athlete. I have been given the choice of key universities in the province, including Zhejiang University!"

I remember in my previous life, there was a tennis player from Eastern Zhejiang Province who was recommended to Zhejiang University for winning the ITF Hope Tournament in high school.

Since the other party can do it, he must be able to do it too, not to mention that he still has three years.

"Athlete? Higher than a national-level athlete?" This level of athlete certification was obviously beyond the knowledge of this female deskmate.

"Yes, there are international athletes above the athletes. This is the highest certification for our athletes!" Chen Ran continued to explain.

"That's great. Just after graduating from junior high school, you have already solved the problem of going to college." Zhou Jing said with great envy.

Chen Ran joked: "Because my grades are average, God gave me some athletic talent. This is fair."

Bei Liuhui, who was sitting in front of him, suddenly turned his head and looked at him, put his pockets in his pockets, and said: "Aren't you just students with sports talents? They are different from those we took the exam, so they are useless."

This guy's mouth is still as bad as ever.

Chen Ran didn't want to pay attention to this person, he was just a pure little brat.

"Graduation certificates are all the same, there are no special markings." Zhou Jing explained seriously, "It's not just high school, it's the same for university."

She had obviously done her homework.

"So what, I didn't get in based on my grades. I won't have any real talent or knowledge after graduation. No big company will want it!" Bei Liuhui continued to say harshly.

At this time, Chen Ran, who was a little disdainful to argue with the other party, suddenly became energetic.

You kid has never been in the society, do you know how involved those big companies are, and how hard-working ordinary employees are?
"Big companies? I don't care about those big companies!"

"I don't want to work for others. I will never work for others in this life!" Chen Ran said decisively.

This was an unforgettable realization he had in his previous life.

That's why Chen Ran chose tennis to work for himself.

No matter how good you are at football or basketball, you still have to work for the club. If you are as good as the club champion, you still have to suffer resentment in Paris.

I will never work for anyone else in this life!
Of course, you can occasionally work for your great motherland, such as participating in the Olympics. This is the only exception.

The motherland will not treat you badly, but the capitalists will.

Zhou Jing's thoughts were very simple and she echoed: "When you become an athlete in the future, you will definitely be different from those of us who go to school."

She felt that Bei Liuhui was a little strange, and he wasn't stupid. Didn't he realize that Chen Ran was going to take a different path from the rest of us, and was he deliberately messing around?
Bei Liuhui wanted to make some more sarcastic comments, but when he saw Hu Jie walking towards Chen Ran in high spirits, he seemed to be thinking of some not-so-good memories, so he wisely closed his mouth.

"brother!"

"Tennis star!"

"Brother, I will work for you for the rest of my life, okay?"
