The Pentium Era - South to North

"Zhejiang Jinxiu Dadi Badminton Club" was quickly established. Liu Jun served as the legal person and the head coach. At the same time, three more coaches, two men and one woman, were hired.

The students below are divided into teams one and two. The second team still signs up for training on their own and needs to pay tuition. The first team goes to each school and other gyms to select children who they think have athletic talent. , who are the official members of the club, not only train and go out to participate in competitions for free, but also distribute sportswear and sports equipment.

Members of the second team can be transferred to the first team at any time if they perform well.

Tan Shuzhen and Xiao Zhao also sent Xiang Nan and Xiang Bei to the second team to participate in training.

From the coach to Zhang Chen, they all feel that Xiang Nan has this talent. Whether it is her physical coordination or her ability to understand movements, she is very high. She should have a better chance of being transferred to the first team.

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Xiangbei immediately became excited as soon as he arrived at the gym. He was very interested in playing badminton and highly motivated in training. He was quickly transferred to the first team by Liu Jun.

Xiao Zhao was secretly proud of this for a while, and said to Zhang Chen, "Did you see that our son is also a bit athletic?"

Zhang Chen smiled and said, of course, how can a person who was conceived on a coal pile not be wild?

"Oh Chi!" Xiao Zhao yelled and came to hit Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen laughed, and Xiao Zhao also laughed. She said, it's true, luckily it's not bad, right?

Zhang Chen's stomach almost hurt from laughing.

Zhang Chen and Xiao Zhao were very happy that Zhang Xiangbei could join the first team. Of course, they didn't save money by joining the first team. Rather, the players in the first team were generally of high quality, and Liu Jun should lead them himself. Training, the training level of the two teams will definitely be different.

Mixed in a bunch of miscellaneous troops in the second team, you can only treat training as entertainment.

In contrast, although Xiangnan has good conditions in all aspects, she does not seem to be very interested in badminton. She is lazy during training, unlike Zhang Xiangbei, who does every move required by the coach. Well done.

Although Xiang Nan quickly understood the pace of badminton and was really nimble when running, she was lazy and her racquet swings were soft. As long as the coach didn't see her, she would be lazy as long as she could.

Tan Shuzhen looked at it and scratched her head. She felt that Xiang Nan's performance was both beyond her expectations and a little disappointing.

It wasn't until Liu Jun announced that Zhang Xiangbei had gone to the first team, but she stayed in the second team. Xiangnan cried a lot, and then she became serious and became serious. When she became serious, even the coach and Liu Jun were afraid. Everyone said that the progress was so rapid and unbelievable that I had never seen such a child before.

Xiang Nan soon joined the team, and Tan Shuzhen breathed a sigh of relief.

But after arriving at the first team in the south, he immediately relaxed again. Liu Jun couldn't figure out why.

In order to stimulate the morale of the first team, Liu Jun came up with a way, that is, every week, their first team will have an intra-team competition, and the two male and female players with the lowest scores will train with the second team in the next week. as punishment.

He found that every day before a game, Xiang Nan would start to get serious. On the day of the game, she seemed to be a completely different person. As soon as she came on the court, she immediately entered the state. Liu Jun judged that she couldn't save many balls in front of the net. But she moved unusually fast. With half a step under her feet, she was able to move into position and save the ball.

For many half-lobs, Liu Jun believed that based on Xiangnan's usual training level, she would not be able to dunk the opponent to death, but she could always hit the bottom line or sideline to dunk the ball to death.

Every week, Liu Jun doesn't have to worry about Zhang Xiangbei, knowing that he will definitely pass. He feels that based on Xiangnan's training this week, she may be hanging, but when it comes to competitions, she can often perform beyond her level. Among several team members, the ranking is in the middle.

Every time Liu Jun saw Tan Shuzhen, he would sigh and tell her, your Nannan is a competitive player. When she gets on the court, she will not have stage fright at all, and she will perform beyond her level. Such an athlete is really It's so rare that you can't even find it. Mr. Tan, let me tell you, there are some things that cannot be trained through training. This is talent.

Really, Mr. Tan, if she trains more seriously, she will definitely make great progress.

Tan Shuzhen understood. She knew that there were some students who were just like this. They were usually good, and their grades were among the best in the class and even grade. But when they took the exam, they were confused as soon as they entered the examination room. The teacher saw his I am even more confused about my grades. Did you get these grades?

Xiang Nan is definitely not such a person, Tan Shuzhen thought proudly, of course this is talent, isn't it just inherited from me?

Tan Shuzhen thought that she was like this. No matter what happened, no matter how bad her mood was, or how chaotic the audience was, as soon as she got on stage, she would immediately enter the state and forget everything else.

Just like that time, when she participated in the Sanjiang Young Singer Grand Prix, she was so nervous before she went on stage. Her throat was tight, her whole body was trembling, and she could hardly make her voice come out. But as soon as she got to the stage, she opened her mouth and suddenly She relaxed. The first one or two sentences were a bit flawed, but she immediately adjusted and got into the mood.

I, Tan Shuzhen, have never been shy. Aren’t the arena and the stage the same thing? Well done, Nan Nan.

Tan Shuzhen called Xiang Nan over, and she and Liu Jun asked her, Nannan, why can't you be more serious when you train?

Xiang Nan stared at them blankly with his big eyes open, saying nothing.

"Nan Nan, can you promise mom that you will train seriously in the future?"

Xiang Nan still looked at her, without nodding, shaking his head, or saying anything.

"Xiang Nan, do you want to be eliminated?" Liu Jun asked.

Xiang Nan looked at him with wide eyes and shook his head.

"Then do you want to win every game?" Liu Jun asked again.

Xiang Nan shook his head and nodded, nodded and shook his head.

"Do you want to be a champion?"

This time, Xiang Nan immediately shook his head.

Liu Jun sighed, looked at Tan Shuzhen, shook his head helplessly, walked outside, and said to Tan Shuzhen, Mr. Tan, there is nothing I can do about this athlete who does not want to be a champion.

By the way, Mr. Tan, this cannot be achieved through training. I can teach her techniques, but I cannot give her a competitive spirit.

On the way to send Xiang Nan back to "Splendid Home", Tan Shuzhen asked Xiang Nan: "Xiang Nan, why don't you want to be the champion?"

When Xiang Nan didn't make any sound, Tan Shuzhen turned to look at Xiang Nan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, and found that Xiang Nan was looking out of the glass with an indifferent look on his face.

Tan Shuzhen asked: "Xiang Nan, mom will ask you again, why don't you want to be a champion?"

Still no sound to the south.

Tan Shuzhen sighed inwardly and cursed, "This is not like me, like that bastard, who doesn't care about anything. I, Tan Shuzhen, want to be perfect in everything, and strive to be first in everything."

Xiangnan, my mother has a competitive heart, but she can't give it to you.

"I don't like playing ball." Xiang Nan said suddenly.

Tan Shuzhen asked: "Then when Aunt Xiaozhao and I took you to sign up, you didn't object."

"Of course, that's because Zhang Xiangbei likes it. He likes to fight, so I will accompany him. I want to watch him. Let me tell you, Mom, this is Xiangbei. If I don't watch him, he will do everything. If he didn’t do well, I wasn’t in the kindergarten, and his performance was so bad that the teacher complained to grandma several times.”

As Xiang Nan said that, Tan Shuzhen couldn't help but laugh. So that's it. Okay, okay, if you don't like it, just don't like it. Anyway, you won't make a living by playing basketball in the future.

Tan Shuzhen reached out and patted Xiang Nan's head. Tan Shuzhen asked, "Nan Nan, tell me, what do you want to learn?"

"I want to learn violin." Xiang Nan said.

Tan Shuzhen nodded: "Okay, then let's learn violin. What about badminton?"

"Of course I still have to learn. Zhang Xiangbei still wants to win the championship. I want to keep an eye on him." Xiangnan said.

…

Tan Shuzhen, Zhang Chen and Xiao Zhao said that they should let Nannan and Beibei learn violin.

"Aren't you learning piano? Many children are learning piano." Xiao Zhao said.

"I think the violin is better. Once you learn the piano, you can't carry it around with you. You can take the violin with you. No matter what you go to school in the future, you can take the violin with you. Besides, the violin is the king of musical instruments and it is difficult to learn. But once they learn it, whatever they want to learn in the future will be very simple," Tan Shuzhen said.

Xiao Zhao nodded and said, "I don't understand this either. Sister Shuzhen said the violin is good, so let them learn the violin."

Tan Shuzhen called Teacher Shi from the Yongcheng Cultural Center and told her that her daughter wanted to learn the violin. Is there any violin teacher that Teacher Shi could recommend, one-on-one, that could come to your home to teach her?

Teacher Shi said okay, I will ask my classmates for you.

Tan Shuzhen thought that she and Xiao Zhao were both very busy and had to be picked up and dropped off by two old people every time. It was inconvenient after all. It would be best to come to teach.

Teacher Shi called back and gave Tan Shuzhen a call. He told her that this is my classmate, whose surname is Ning. She is from Ningbo and plays violin in the Hangzhou Song and Dance Troupe. Please contact her.

Tan Shuzhen said yes, thank you Teacher Shi!

After calling Teacher Ning, making an appointment, and asking for the address of Teacher Ning's home, Tan Shuzhen and Xiao Zhao took Xiang Nan and Xiang Bei.

Teacher Ning lives in the fifth district of Zhaohui, in the dormitory building of the Hangcheng Song and Dance Troupe. The current situation of the Hangcheng Song and Dance Troupe is similar to that of the Yongcheng Wu Opera Troupe. There are no performances or rehearsals at ordinary times, and it is basically in a semi-free state, that is, When there is a West Lake Expo or other large-scale event in the city, gather people together temporarily and rehearse.

The people in the troupe usually rely on their own abilities to engage in teaching activities outside. Fortunately, in recent years, everyone has paid attention to children's literary and artistic education, and they can learn everything. Therefore, even the people in the troupe can dance folk dances. They all bring students, and those who play the piano, violin, and saxophone are even more popular.

Teacher Ning’s home is similar to Tan Shuzhen’s home when she was in the Yue Opera Troupe. There are two rooms facing each other, one bedroom, another living room and dining room, and the kitchen is also in the corridor.

When Tan Shuzhen walked into such a corridor, she fell into a trance.

The difference is that they moved the dining table to the bedroom, making this room the living room and the classroom where Teacher Ning teaches students.

When Tan Shuzhen and the others arrived, there was another student learning piano here, and they sat on the edge. After he finished studying and left, Teacher Ning talked to them about the two children learning piano.

The two parties quickly reached an agreement on the tuition and time, three days a week, from 7 to 8 pm on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. But when it came to teaching at home, Teacher Ning hesitated a little. She said, mainly I have other students, and it takes too much time to come and go. Here, I usually teach on-site.

Tan Shuzhen thought for a while and said, we are mainly two children. We are with the elderly. It is not convenient for them to pick up and drop off. When we get here, the children are learning the piano and the elderly have nothing to do. Let’s do this, Teacher Ning, we will double the tuition fee and then every time , let the driver pick you up and drop you off, so it only takes ten minutes to go there.

"Yes, teacher, please help me." Xiao Zhao also said.

"Okay." Teacher Ning agreed.

Asked again what kind of violin they needed to buy, Teacher Ning looked at Xiang Nan and Xiang Bei and told them that they were still young and could only use a small violin, and it didn’t need to be very good. They could just buy it from a general piano store. When you reach fifth grade and you can use a normal piano, I will introduce you to ordering one. There is a good violin maker in Hangzhou who returned from studying in Italy.

Tan Shuzhen and Xiao Zhao quickly agreed.
