The King of Variety Entertainment

In China, the two universities in Beiqing have always only said that they are first, and have never acknowledged that they are second. The competition between the two universities need not be said much, and the Chinese people basically know that. ． Fastest update

But there are always people who want to make a point, so at the end of the last century, suddenly school leaders came up with ideas, hoping to follow the example of Cambridge and Oxford in the UK, and conduct a rowing challenge. The two schools will compete in this sport. Fight against each other and hold it for a hundred years. It has become the three classic rowing competitions with the European "Cambridge and Oxford Contest" and the "Harvard and Yale Contest" in the United States. by.

In the beginning, the ideas and original intentions were of course good. The two universities in Beiqing wanted to be world-class universities. For the time being, let ’s not talk about the hardware, but also keep up with the software. .

They invited the rowing teams of Cambridge and Oxford as guests and invested a lot of money and energy. They did a good job, but then the practice of the two teams just became more professional. National coaches were invited to train, and even the Olympic team members of the rowing team entered the school, became students of the school, and participated in the two schools' competition.

In the middle, various tears, various flavors, and violations of rules eventually turned into a vicious circle. The original advocates no longer adhered to it, and the original original intention was never mentioned again. Eventually, it was impossible to continue.

"We only opyed other people's models, but ignored the foundation of rowing. In the end, there was insufficient fresh blood, insufficient social influence, and various external factors. After only ten years of the competition, the unfortunately died ... "

An old man sitting in the lounge, the ten players facing the extreme challenge, as well as coach Xu Feng, finished the whole story with emotion, causing a sigh of sigh around him.

On July 2nd, Extreme Challenge was recorded in the Beijing-Kunyuhe Community Party and Mass Activity Center. The guest invited was Huang Qinian, the former head coach of the national team, and the first coach of the Tsinghua University rowing team. Boldly telling the inside story of the year really shocked the listener.

Shabe quietly squeezed Yang An's arm, raised his chin slightly, and asked if there was any problem in saying so.

Yang An received the instructions from Director Guo Hongyang, and I understood that I would n’t cut it when the time comes. Anyway, this story has been recorded. They listened to it first and then said it!

"Lao Huang, I would like to ask a more acute question. Do you think that the real reason for the failure of Beiqing to fight against the race was really the lack of fresh blood and did not recruit new rowing students? You were the most recent participant at the time. I I want to hear you tell the truth. "

Yang An asked sincerely, and finally pointed to himself on the ten people, adding: "I asked this question, mainly because our extreme challenge program group is now trying to promote the sport, and it is with the National Sports General Administration The cooperating side, in recent months, after our rowing special aired, it seems that domestic racing has set off again, which is almost the same as the first two years of the Beiqing confrontation. I don't want to ... you understand? "

Huang Qinian nodded slightly and smiled, "Are you afraid of repeating the same mistakes?"

Ok!

Everyone is focusing on this. This is a lesson learned. The two best universities in China have tried it more than a decade ago. Unfortunately, they failed. They limit their renewed enthusiasm for rowing. How many years can it last? No one can tell.

Huang Qinian habitually reached out and touched it in his chest pocket. He was looking for cigarettes, and suddenly came to his senses. The program was being recorded here, and he smiled awkwardly.

He made a difficult decision, and decided to unscrupulously expose this scar that had covered for more than ten years, and publicly disclosed the inside story of that year!

"I'll tell you the truth. I think there are three reasons. The first one is really that no new students have joined because the rowing is too much and the school can't afford it. The school does not have proper water training and can only rent water centres in other places. It costs hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to pick up and drop off students and place employees. In addition, there are hundreds of thousands of eight-person boats and hundreds of thousands of ergometers. Money is burning everywhere. It is better to invest in basketball. Waste of money, but also get a good reputation in sports. Anyway, uba is also a commercial project, there are ba, even nba, excellent basketball students may be able to enter the professional league draft, and rowing? have what?"

What a terrible truth!

Yang An was ashamed of them. Before that, he attributed the death penalty of the event to the reason of "no new students." This was the dumping of the pot to the ordinary people. It turned out that everyone looked at the money!

Huang Qinian completely let go today and continued: "The second point is that the Chinese value their face too much and cannot afford to lose."

What this said is also making several people laugh.

This is not mocking the two schools in Beiqing? Can't afford to lose, can't afford to lose this person, what are the reasons for the leaders' embarrassment?

Yang An nodded: "We went out for a lap last month and found that the atmosphere of the rowing is indeed a little different from the domestic one. Especially in Cambridge, every July is their rowing season. The last time we went there was not On the day of the official competition, it was already lively. There were rowing boats on the river. I heard that after the official start, there were more than 1,000 boats in the participating teams.

Shabei said: "And I have seen their race schedule, kids group, elderly group, amateur group, professional group, men, women, all are racing, this is really a national rowing, national fitness!"

Huang Bo suddenly realized that he clapped and said, "Do you remember the name of the Cavaliers Club we saw on the Thames? Do you remember the sine1856 written above?"

That being said ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ everyone remembered.

At the time of the visit, everyone wondered whether it was the age of the ancient building, or a place of honor such as the British Gentleman (Knighthood) Memorial Hall. There was a crossed scull next to it. .

Huang Bo said: "I later checked online, this is a rowing club that lasted for more than 100 years, or a well-known British club!"

"Oh my **** ... a rowing club founded in 1856?"

"Does it still exist?"

"Not only exists, it is also very influential! Some British ministers, lawmakers, eos, lawyers, and others have a long history in this club!"

"Guy, this is really ... Ah! Haha ..."

Everyone does n’t know how to say it. A rowing club is longer than the two universities in Beiqing. The cultural heritage is not a little bit, so the UK can participate in all ages, and rowing can persist. Hundred years, purely because people love this sport! (To be continued ...)
