Chapter 209 Hobbies
People still need to have some hobbies, otherwise there is no difference between them and salted fish.

Shen Guang also has hobbies. He likes to play golf, but there are no venues in China, so he can only play croquet with the retired old professors of the school.

The history of gateball being introduced to China is very early. As early as the 30s, Yenching University had already regarded gateball as the content of physical education classes.

It is a hybrid of golf and billiards. It is an outdoor ball game in which a mallet is used to hit the ball through the iron gate on flat ground or lawn.

Shen Guanglin's skills are not good, but he has a good mentality. He is not arrogant in winning or discouraged in defeat, and he is very competitive.

Those old men can't do it anymore, not only lose the game, but also lose people. They are unhappy when they win, and even worse when they lose.

They don't have such a beautiful girl like Li Rong to cheer and cheer, and they also serve tea and water.

If it wasn't for Shen Guanglin who likes to bring a watermelon or a few fruits every time he comes here, it is designated not to bring him to play.

In addition to playing croquet, Shen Guanglin can also play the piano. He finally bought one and put it in Fuyuanmen's house. Occasionally, Li Rong would also learn from him.

However, in fact, he doesn't like this musical instrument at all, and he is not the kind of person with absolute pitch. If you give him a piece of music, he can only listen to the general idea.

After all, the piano learned for the exam has basically not reached the performance standard, and the sound of playing is still different from playing.

To be honest, the tenth level of piano, that is, the piano level of the 3rd-5th grade of the attached music primary school, really cannot be higher.

Apart from "To Alice", Shen Guanglin couldn't even talk about a complete piece of music.

As for other sports, running is not a hobby, and Shen Guanglin doesn't like football, but he can play a little bit.

When he was in school, a new leader took office. The leader was a football fan. The country had advocated football for a while, so he also practiced some basic movements, but that was all.

After all, China lacks football culture. Although the population base is large, there are very few children playing football.

But all this does not prevent him from knowing some of the world's top stars, such as CR7, who is praised as the god of self-discipline, such as Messi with super breakthrough ability, such as Neymar who is flamboyant, and Balotelli who thinks about life .

However, Shen Guanglin never knew that Chinese football in the 80s also had a glorious history.

China in this era is really top-notch in the Asian football circle.

You can tell by looking at the record: they even eliminated Fusang one after another in the group stage, killed Nan Bangzi and Bei Bangzi, and thus advanced to the semi-finals with the first place in the group.

The opponents in the semi-finals are Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and New Zealand. The top two in the group enter the World Cup finals.

With this alone, Shen Guanglin felt that this game was worth watching.

In fact, the Huaxia team's qualifying form is not good now. In the past two games, the Huaxia team played against New Zealand, and they were very uncomfortable.

The battle at home this time can be said to be the Tianwangshan battle of the Huaxia team, and the male students really want to watch it.

Not fans, love to watch football is generally because of a simple emotion: that is patriotism.

Fans of later generations, that is also the depth of love and the deepest hatred.

Huaxia football is really too weak. In the two World Cups, it was either killed by someone, or it was black for 5 minutes.

Finally entered the Olympic Games in 87, the result was full of humiliation in Seoul, and the degree of humiliation was comparable to the 02 World Cup.

It's not easy for students to watch the game, just buy a ticket.Others have no money, so Shen Guanglin has no money?

Is it okay to engage in team building activities? The laboratory will be reimbursed.

Shen Guanglin made a decision. Not only did he invite the staff of the laboratory to go out to watch the football, but he also provided support for the students in the math class who wanted to go.

Now that I have decided to watch the game in a serious way, I need to do something with a sense of ceremony.

Shen Guanglin paid for it, and they organized a fan association.

They also bought beer, fireworks, firecrackers, cowhide drums, banners, horns, and even uniforms like the national team.

This is the so-called support.

Think of it as a performance art.

After paying so much money in one breath, someone asked Shen Guanglin what kind of family he was.

Shen Guanglin thought for a while, and replied, "A cadre's family, but this is a sponsorship from the school. The school has a big business, and just a little money is enough for our activities."

How hateful!
But it's really nice to be able to watch the game live.

The game on October 10 was held at the Workers' Stadium, and the crowds were full of people.

At this time, Gongti has not been expanded since it was built in 1959, and the condition of the site is not bad, neither new nor old.

In later generations, it was expanded once when the Asian Games were held here, and it was expanded again before the Olympic Games.

When the game day comes, the tickets are not expensive, so there are many fans.

Everyone has also made various preparations, most of which are holding the national flag. After all, fans in this era are immature, have not grown up, and have not even learned to swear.

Shen Guanglin's team is not the largest. Some companies or institutions have more people, but there are very few organized and disciplined teams like the Beijing University Fans Association.

Most of the fans came here with enthusiasm. Few people made a plan like them and prepared so thoroughly.

For this reason, Shen Guanglin and the others also pulled up a banner with the main title: Team Huaxia must win!The subtitle is: Out of Asia, into the world.

Other fans were very envious after seeing it, and thought they still knew how to play!
Next time there is a competition, we will do the same.

The game has started, and it is also very uncomfortable to watch the game live without a commentator.

Since Shen Guanglin and Li Rong are together, neither of them are considered fans, they just cheer for the Huaxia team.

In fact, Shen Guanglin didn't know any of these players, and the only one he had heard of was Shen Xiangfu, who later became the coach of the national team.

Characters like the core player Rong Zhixing are too old to leave an impression.

In the past few days, Shen Guanglin also specifically recalled the schedule and results of the 1982 World Cup.

I even thought about whether to buy a ball or something, but then gave up.

In fact, there is no need to think about it, he can't think of anything, because he has never experienced this period of history at all.

In Shen Guanglin's memory of football, he knew the 1998 World Cup. France defeated Brazil and won the championship in disgrace. In the 02 World Cup, he only knew that Brazil won the championship, and he didn't even know who was the runner-up.

Counting forward, Brazil won the World Cup in 1994. Who was it in 90, 86, or 82?

Which one was Maradona's Argentina?
Is it this year?Shen Guanglin was really not sure.

In Shen Guanglin's era, Maradona had died young, but in this era, Maradona was a fledgling and a rising star.

The game has started, and the audience is boiling!
This is the best thing about watching the game live, it is easy to set off the atmosphere, and even girls can shout with emotion.

Everyone vented their emotions as the game progressed. The Chinese team got off to a bad start, and Kuwait took the lead in getting a penalty kick.

Li Rong was so frightened that she didn't even dare to look. She held Shen Guanglin's arm and covered her eyes with her hands.

However, the goalkeeper came down to earth and saved the ball very bravely!
There was a sound of exhalation in the audience, and everyone let out a sigh of relief.

If this goal is scored, history may be rewritten.

Next came the highlight moment of the Huaxia team. They took the initiative on the field and played better and better. First, Rong Zhixing scored with a header, then Gu Guangming scored a strong shot, and finally Shen Xiangfu's single-handedly went to the meeting to end the game.

They each scored a goal, and the Huaxia team won 3:0.

It was soul-stirring, brilliant, highly anticipated, and the audience was boiling.

The Huaxia team is so good, so why didn't they qualify?

While celebrating, Shen Guanglin wondered if he could change history.
