Two hundred and ninetieth chapters hold high(1/2)
"At 8 o'clock in the evening on August 22, Los Angeles local time, and 11 noon today in China, the 34th Summer Olympic Games will hold a grand and grand closing ceremony at the Pasadena Stadium. At this Olympic Games Many stories will also come to an end at this moment with the extinguishing of the torch... After fierce competition, the Chinese Olympic delegation won 40 gold medals in this Olympic Games, beating the American delegation with 39 gold medals and won the top spot. The first place in the gold medal list of this Olympic Games! This is also the second time that the Chinese Olympic delegation has topped the gold medal list after the Capital Olympics. It is also the first time that it has ranked first in gold medals at an Olympic Games held outside its home country...
"... In addition, according to the delegation, the flag bearer of the Chinese delegation at the closing ceremony of this Olympic Games has also been determined. Li Qingqing, who led the Chinese women's football team to win the Olympic gold medal in women's football, and Hu Lai, who led the Chinese Olympic team to win the Olympic gold medal in men's football, will serve After this arrangement was exposed, it immediately won unanimous praise from everyone online. Everyone believed that it was well deserved... Both people helped their respective teams achieve major breakthroughs in the history of Chinese sports... At the same time, as we all know, Hu Lai and Li Qingqing is also a "divine couple" in China's sports world.
For them to be able to serve as flag bearers at the closing ceremony together will surely become a good story in the history of the Olympic Games!"
"well!"
"Good news, why are you sighing?" Hu Lixin asked his wife strangely when he heard this.
Xie Lan sighed again: "Don't I feel sorry for Lao Li? He can't watch the closing ceremony with us!"
The expression on Hu Lixin's face was wonderful: "Okay, okay, you are driving Mr. Li to death!
"How do you talk?" Xie Lan rolled her eyes at her husband, "I am trying to make him change his impression of our son little by little. As the saying goes, 'Sneak into the night with the wind, moistening things silently', this is called subtlety!"
That's really unfortunate. I want to lead the team for training, and it was decided long ago."
"If it hadn't been decided a long time ago, I would have suspected that Lao Li was avoiding us on purpose." Xie Lan said helplessly.
As the school year approached, Li Ziqiang's Dongchuan Middle School football team participated in a week-long training camp. Instead of training at school as usual, the team of more than 50 people was dragged to Pujin, south of Jincheng, where Jincheng is located. Football Association training base.
Therefore, this training camp will definitely require overnight stay outside, and it is impossible to come back again.
This training camp was actually not organized by Dongchuan Middle School, but by the Andong Football Association, which arranged for several well-known football schools in Andong Province to come together for training, exchanges and competitions.
It's said to be a training camp, but it's actually more like a small-scale invitational tournament.
This is not the first time that the Anton Provincial Football Association has held such an invitational tournament. Every winter and summer vacation, this method is used to strengthen the connection between campus football in the province, improve the level, and increase the competitiveness of Anton campus football in the entire national campus football. After all, this province has produced five national football players: Hu Lai, Wang Guangwei, Luo Kai, Xia Xiaoyu and Li Qingqing. If they show their hips in a national competition, wouldn't they be an embarrassment to their seniors?
In addition to the high school group, they will also organize junior high school and elementary school groups, but the time is different from the high school group. Hu Lixin has led the team to participate in both.
So it was definitely not that Li Ziqiang made a temporary excuse to escape, but that it was really decided in advance.
It was just a coincidence that when they set off on August 23, it was the day of the closing ceremony.
"Be content, at least he still watched the game with us. And he saw Qingqing make our son's celebration twice." Hu Lixin said.
Xie Lan burst into laughter upon hearing this.
When she thought of that scene, she felt comfortable all over.
At the same time, I am even more looking forward to the closing ceremony at noon today.
From the air, the Pasadena Stadium in Los Angeles looks like a wide-open clay pot. But Americans are not very familiar with clay pots. They think the stadium looks more like a horseshoe, so they nicknamed it "
Horseshoe Bowl".
Americans call all such roofless, circular stadiums "bowls."
These "bowl"-shaped stadiums are the home stadiums of many football teams. Football has a high status in the United States. There is a famous event called the "Super Bowl" every year. It is a major social event in the United States and attracts a lot of attention.
No less than the Chinese spring "bowl"...
Today this "horseshoe bowl" is full of people.
The stadium, which can accommodate 100,000 people, is packed with seats. Looking down from the air, the beautiful light show makes this old stadium seem to have regained its youth.
This stadium is hosting the closing ceremony of the 34th Summer Olympic Games.
It started with a cool light show.
Of course, in the eyes of Chinese audiences, it's actually not that cool.
The fireworks show is also quite average.
This is definitely not nit-picking by the Chinese audience, it’s just the way it is.
Mainly because there is no money left in Los Angeles...
Hosting the Olympic Games is a very expensive matter. From the time of the bid to the present, various expenses have been astronomical, and the budget has been exceeded again and again.
Finally, when it comes to the opening and closing ceremonies, it can be saved naturally.
The opening ceremony of this Olympic Games is so embarrassing that everyone complained after watching it: "It's already 2028, and the opening ceremony of the 2012 China Capital Olympics is still an unsurpassed classic..."
The opening ceremony stretched my hips, but the closing ceremony was actually not much better, or even worse.
However, Hu Lai and Li Qingqing, who were waiting in the waiting area, didn't care whether they stretched their hips during the closing ceremony.
For both of them, as long as they can participate in the closing ceremony together, the crotch-stretching closing ceremony will be the best memory.
Their teammates are chasing stars in the Chinese delegation at this moment, busy taking photos with various Olympic champions.
Hu Lai and Li Qingqing did not join in the fun.
This is not because they are being reserved, but because they are together enough for others to take photos with them, and there is no need to attack everywhere...
Yes, Hu Lai and Li Qingqing, the new flag-bearers, have become the "mascots" of the Chinese delegation, and the Olympic champions have come to take photos with them.
Everyone gathered together under the national flag and took photos of Li Qingqing and Hu Lai in various poses.
So the two of them have been standing at the front of the delegation, waiting for various people to take photos.
Later, in addition to the members of the Chinese delegation, there were even athletes from other countries’ delegations who came here.
Every time someone came up to take a photo with them, Xu Wen would stand nearby and record the video on her mobile phone, and kept saying to herself: "A talented man and a beautiful woman! A couple of gods and gods! Wow!"
Li Qingqing was speechless: "What do you want to do, Wenwen?"
"Me? Ah, of course I'm posting on Xiaobozhan and Douyin! Jie Jie Jie!" Xu Wen smiled like an old witch.
Li Qingqing glanced at Hu Lai speechlessly, but Hu Lai didn't take it seriously: "It's okay, let's go! We are aboveboard, why are we afraid of comments from monsters and ghosts?"
Xu Wen gave him a thumbs up: "Hu Lai is bright!"
Hu Lai gave her a "" gesture in return.
※※※This kind of group photo continued until the opening performances of the closing ceremony were over, and everyone returned to their respective delegations under the reminder of the volunteers on site.
The flag bearers of each country all stood at the front of the team and gathered together.
Because when the time comes, they will have to appear alone first, and only after the flags of all countries have appeared, will it be the athletes' turn to appear.
The noisy waiting area gradually became quiet, and the host's voice was heard on the radio outside: "Ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to the flags of the two hundred and five delegations participating in the XXXIV Olympiad!"
The flag bearers and flag ushers of each delegation were divided into two teams under the leadership of the usher and entered from different gates.
The first one to appear is the Greek delegation. Because the Olympic Games originated in Greece, even if the initials of Greece's name are not the same, they are always the first to appear in every Olympic Games. This is the lineup of the founders of the Olympic Games.
Next, the delegations will appear in alphabetical order by their names.
The last one to appear will be the host delegation from the United States.
The initials of the Chinese delegation are, and it will be our turn soon.
The usher turned around and looked at Hu Lai and Li Qingqing, smiling at them: "Please follow me, we are about to appear."
Hu Lai and Li Qingqing looked at each other and smiled.
Then Hu Lai stretched out his hand to Li Qingqing: "Come, brother will take you to fly!"
Li Qingqing, who was holding the flagpole, handed her other hand to Hu Lai. She gently patted Hu Lai's palm and was held tightly by him.
She suddenly remembered what she said to Hu Lai on the jumping machine at Disneyland in Paris that year, and she extended her hand for him to hold.
That seemed like...the first time they held hands?
Thinking of this, the smile on Li Qingqing's face became even brighter.
Then she waved the flag forward and raised it with all her strength.
It was actually a bit strenuous to support the flagpole with one hand. Just as Li Qingqing was secretly exerting force, he suddenly felt a lightness in his hand.
It turned out that Hu Lai stretched out his left hand to help her catch the flagpole.
The two of them held their left hands with their right hands, and their left and right hands supported the flagpole together.
Just follow the flag guide and usher and walk forward and step out of the gate.
When they entered the main venue, a huge light pillar fell from the sky, enveloped them, and moved forward with their steps.
The flashing lights in the stands flashed constantly, making them feel as if they were walking in a galaxy of bright stars.
The cheers of the audience are the sound of the rising and falling stars, and the echo from the depths of the sea of stars.
"Come out! Come out!"
Xie Lan excitedly pressed the video button on her mobile phone, which had been prepared for filming, and recorded the scene of her son and daughter-in-law walking into the venue hand in hand holding a flag.
At the same time, on the TV, the CCTV host was also saying excitedly: "Friends in the audience! What is coming now is One China! The two athletes who serve as flag bearers at the closing ceremony of this Olympic Games are from the Chinese women's football team and the men's football team.
team, they are Li Qingqing, the star of the women’s football team,
and Hu Lai of the men's football team! The two of them represent the highest level of Chinese men's and women's football respectively! They led their respective teams to win the Olympic championship in this Olympic Games, achieving a zero breakthrough in Chinese football in the Olympic events! This is very remarkable.
Achievement!"
Xie Lan didn't say anything, for fear that he would disturb the video.
But she pumped her fist hard behind the camera.
well said!
