Chapter 145 Asian Games September 1st, the first day of school. Xu...
September 1st, the first day of school.
Xu Heye took the certificate of loss, various identification documents, and the registration fee to Jingye Middle School to register.
She did well in the high school entrance exam and was assigned to Class 1, which was actually a sprint class for admission to Peking University and Tsinghua University.
After school started, Xu Heye discovered that the learning atmosphere among her classmates was completely different from that in junior high school.
Junior high school is a nine-year compulsory education, with enrollment based on districts. The student population is mixed: some are passionate about learning, while others, naturally, are lazy and slack off.
It is different in high school. Those who can go to high school must have passed the high school admission score line. There is a screening line of the high school entrance examination, and those who come here are students with excellent grades from various schools.
Those who can come to Jingye Middle School and enter Class 1 are the best of the best. These top students are all chosen ones with talent and hard work.
No one is bored anymore to pay attention to whether classmates are locals or from other places. Everyone puts all their energy into studying. Many students even choose to live on campus to save time on going to and from school in the morning and evening.
The classmates were competing with each other and the scores were very close.
If Xu Heye wants to maintain her previous ranking, she must work harder than before.
Life was very dull, all I did was study. Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was September 22nd.
That day, the atmosphere in the class was unusually lively. Everyone was chattering, and even the teacher didn't scold them harshly as usual when he saw them.
This is a special day, the opening day of the Beijing Asian Games.
At around 3:00 p.m., all the teachers and students of the school gathered in the auditorium. In the middle of the auditorium were several televisions. These televisions were moved from the homes of the principal and several school leaders and were specifically used to broadcast the opening ceremony of the Asian Games.
At four o'clock, the sound of rumbling drums was heard in the Workers' Stadium. The huge bell on the north side of the venue rang 11 times, shaking the sky and causing everyone to cheer, heralding the beginning of the opening ceremony.
"Celebratory Gongs and Drums", "Green Water and Lotus in the Wind", "Chinese Martial Arts", "Shining Child Stars", "Heroes in Sports", "Light of the Asian Games"... The auditorium was silent, and thousands of teachers and students watched every event of the Asian Games opening ceremony with an almost pious attitude.
No one spoke, everyone was focused on watching this large-scale sporting event hosted by China.
Xu Heye had read reports about the Asian Games, and she knew very well how much effort the entire Chinese nation had put in to ensure the perfect presentation of this opening ceremony.
The large-scale group gymnastics show "Heroes of Sports" is composed of eight sets of movements, such as a forward roll on the shoulders, a board-lifting jump, and a rolling tiger-crouching swallow jump. The performance is very difficult, and only professional gymnasts of national level three or above can perform those movements.
In order to perfectly present this set of gymnastics at the opening ceremony, thousands of soldiers were carefully selected from tens of thousands of soldiers. From the moment they accepted the mission, they began high-intensity training for fourteen hours a day. Everyone trained with injuries, and finally successfully completed the "Sports Heroes" performance.
The skydiving performance in the storyboard is extremely difficult. A slight deviation in wind direction or weather may cause a serious accident in which the skydiver cannot land safely in the stadium.
A Tibetan girl, holding a torch, collected the sacred flame of the 11th Asian Games. Shooting athlete Xu Haifeng ran into the venue holding the torch. As the Asian Games anthem played, the Asian Games flame was lit at the Workers' Stadium.
Xu Heye's face felt hot. She reached out to touch it and found that her eyes were already filled with tears.
She looked around, and saw that everyone, whether teachers or students, had sparkling eyes.
From being called the "Sick Man of East Asia" in 1896 to successfully hosting the first large-scale sporting event in 1990, the Chinese people have worked hard for nearly a hundred years and used the song "Asian Pride" to tell the world that the Chinese are not the "sick man of the East who has been numb and insensitive for a long time" as the people of the United States say.
The next day was the weekend, and Xu Heye went to the factory for the first time since school started.
Dong Taohua excitedly found Xu Heye and said, "Heye, it's stable. The sweatshirts and sportswear produced by our factory have successfully taken advantage of the Asian Games and are selling like hotcakes."
Xu Heye nodded, not surprised.
The materials they got this time can be said to have perfectly taken advantage of the time, place and people.
However, she was more concerned about the new models made by the factory this time.
"Auntie, how are the pre-orders for the new models going?" In order to warm up for the new models, Xu Heye asked the factory to send a brochure to each of the retailers who came to the factory to order sportswear.
The Asian Games didn't end until October 7th, so the conversation about them would continue until at least 1991. However, the sweatshirts and sportswear they had were still too thin, and she figured they'd be lucky if they could sell them until mid-November.
Therefore, whether the new winter clothing models can be successfully sold is the key to the future smooth development of the factory.
Dong Taohua said, "The winter clothing brochures have been sent to the retailers. Everyone is quite interested, but no one has placed an order yet."
The weather is still hot, so these retailers won't be ordering winter clothes so early. I estimate that people won't start ordering winter clothes until mid-October.
Xu Heye nodded: "Aunt, please do some statistics and see which one everyone likes more."
"For those with large orders, we can consider stocking up more. For those with small orders, we can just cut them. If no one makes them, it's a waste of manpower and material resources, and it also takes up warehouse space."
"I understand, don't worry about it."
Dong Taohua brought up another matter: "By the way, Heye, didn't you say before that you wanted to find a factory?"
