Chapter 310: End of the World Support
Huo Dong panicked and slipped off the carriage, almost falling.
He didn't understand. He was just here to deliver a cart of stuff he'd bought, some of which were second-hand items. Wasn't it worth such a high-level reception?
In a panic, he saw Luo Jiu extending his hand in a friendly manner and said sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Huo, thank you for everything you have dedicated to the motherland."
Huo Dong smiled and said, "Don't be so polite. These things don't cost much. I heard that you were buying them. These things are not available in China. I was sailing in Southeast Asia and happened to find a few things that might be useful. I also bought some second-hand goods sold by foreigners and put together a truckload of them.
My ability is limited. If I had money, I would like to donate money to build a big stadium for you."
Luo Jiu nodded, "Of course, you will do that."
Everyone came up one by one and shook hands with each other.
The athletes excitedly jumped into the car and started unloading.
There were two standard billiard tables, some professional protective gear, discus, balls, etc., filling up a large car.
It was getting dark, so Luo Jiu and others let him stay and rest for a night and leave the next day.
Huo Dong was really touched by such hospitality.
Zhong Jialing also told him that her pharmaceutical company was preparing to export, which would require shipping, and if he could do it, she would give him this big business.
Huo Dongben was a man who was good at business and had an extremely keen business sense. He immediately asked for the address and contact information and prepared to go to the pharmaceutical factory tomorrow to have a face-to-face interview with the person in charge.
Luo Jiu got up early the next day and went into the space to take a look as usual. He was shocked when he entered. The open space in the space was filled with various modern sports equipment, with a very complete variety.
She hurriedly called Feng Qi and others in and worked together to get things out.
Now that's great, we have everything.
Before, we used big iron bars for weightlifting, but now we have a bunch of professional weightlifting equipment.
This thing is not afraid of consumption and is not likely to be damaged. It may be passed down for several generations.
Zhong Jialing opened a large cardboard box and said excitedly, "It's a swimsuit and swimming gear!"
Goggles, nose clips, swimsuits and trunks, separate and one-piece, everything is available. We have practiced swimming for so many days, but we have never seen such professional equipment.
Golf balls, golf clubs, softball gloves and balls, racing bicycles...
I don’t know where Qiao Zhiyu and the others got it, but they brought in everything they could think of and couldn’t think of.
The four were happily counting the items when Qiao Zhiyu came in with a bunch of bows slung over his arm.
Luo Jiu asked hurriedly: "Thank you for your hard work, where did you get so many things?"
Qiao Zhiyu smiled and said, "We received the mission. We left a few old, weak, sick and disabled people to look after the house, and all of us went out to sweep all the places where we could find sports equipment."
Cheng Yaoyao hurriedly said, "You didn't encounter any zombies, did you? Be careful not to get hurt, and be sure to pay attention to safety."
Qiao Zhiyu smiled and said, "We are all strong and have super powers now, so we dealt with the zombies quickly. Sister Ma was slightly injured, but it has nothing to do with the zombies. She accidentally stepped on a tennis ball in the tennis hall and broke her coccyx. She has been taken back to recuperate, so it's not a big problem.
I came here to ask and see if there is anything missing so that we can look for it.
Oh, there are still some big items that haven’t been brought in yet, and they are being dismantled outside.”
Luo Jiu said: "It's almost there. It would be even better if we had some professional timing equipment."
Cheng Yaoyao said, "We'll need some magnesium powder. As for the rest, just take whatever you see. They can basically all be used anyway."
Seeing Zhong Jialing in a daze, Luo Jiu hurriedly asked her, "What are you thinking about?"
Zhong Jialing sighed: "It would be great if we could get a few coaches here. What we lack most right now is technology."
Feng Qi laughed, "Why don't we just capture a few zombies? Then we don't have to study technology, but how to stay alive."
To be honest, organizing the Olympics is much more difficult than dealing with zombies.
Killing zombies is a physical job, just a flick of the knife and they're done.
The Olympics requires both physical strength and technical skills. Take a relatively simple sport like badminton for example, it is not something that can be won by just being strong.
Fubao broke six rackets in one day. His serve went over the net, and he used brute force to drive the ball through the net.
When she played with the stick, it seemed as if it was attached to her body and she could spin it around her shoulders and neck with ease.
When she played chip ball, her limbs were as stiff as steel and every step she took was extremely uncoordinated, as if she had borrowed arms and legs.
After practicing for a day, Luo Jiu quickly advised her, "Change the project, or you will break the net."
Although equipment is not so scarce now, it cannot be sustained.
Qiao Zhiyu and her friends have been busy in the apocalypse. Since they received the mission, they have been going out to raid the place from time to time.
Within a few days, even the training mats were brought in.
The entire Olympic base looks like an ordinary, old-fashioned building from the outside, but the things inside are a century ahead of the times.
Many of the equipment even had various symbols on them. Meng Hu asked curiously, "What do these 2008, 2024, and 2036 mean?"
Luo Jiu replied calmly: "It is a totem, which means blessing those who use it with good luck and peace."
"Oh." Meng Hu nodded and thought to himself: People who make these things are quite superstitious.
There is no shortage of equipment. Even the wood for the balance beam has been unscrewed from the venue and sent here.
The athletes were as excited as if they had received a new toy. After completing basic training every day, they rushed to use the equipment.
There are always people on every court. The big court is farther away, so they set up high nets to prevent people from being hit.
The ping-pong tables in the small court were close together, and the ping-pong balls were flying everywhere.
From time to time, people would jump down from the ten-meter-high platform, making a thumping sound like dumplings being dropped into the water.
The base entered a chaotic period of exploration, and Luo Jiu was even thinking about a second path.
If we cannot gain an advantage in many projects, can we find another way and demonstrate our great power style in other places?
Cheng Yaoyao was sleeping in the middle of the night, Luo Jiu pushed her awake, "I want to add cultural courses. Athletes are bound to get injured. We can't let everyone retire and get nothing but illnesses, right?"
Cheng Yaoyao rubbed her eyes and asked, "Do you think you can't achieve results?"
"It's uncertain. At least it's far from my ideal goal."
"Then what do we learn in the cultural courses?"
"Learning foreign languages is important for the development of sports. Secondly, it is important to cultivate diplomatic talents. After the reform and opening up, we urgently need professionals who can communicate with the outside world. Isn't Jialing's Ministry of Foreign Affairs short of people? These people know everything about us, so it's more reliable to use them."
Cheng Yaoyao smiled helplessly, "Go to sleep first. It won't be open today or tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow. Don't worry."
She forced Luo Jiu to lie down and pressed the quilt on her, "Go to sleep."
The room was quiet for a few minutes. Just as Cheng Yaoyao was about to fall asleep, Luo Jiu suddenly did a sit-up and stood up again, "Even if our grades are average, we still have to wear the best-looking clothes!"
Cheng Yaoyao took a deep breath and said, "Turn on the light, don't sleep."
