"Eh...! When you talk about the sports meeting, is it like selecting the top pick, selecting the strongest among people who love sports across the country?"
"Hahaha! Don't tell me, it's really interesting how you describe it. That's indeed what happened!"
"Let me tell you, it's not quite right! The number one scholar in Wen can be an official in the court and earn a salary from the court! The number one scholar in Wu can be a general and go into battle to kill the enemy and achieve military merit! What do athletes have? Even if they get first place, it doesn't mean anything! "
"It's not interesting? Are you kidding? You haven't read the newspaper, right? The first place in each event will get 10,000 gold! The second place will also get 8,000 gold, and even the third place will also get 5,000 gold...! "
Several people gathered together and discussed the upcoming sports meeting.
When some people say that athletes are meaningless and have no benefits, they are immediately ridiculed by the people around them.
"Sports can not only strengthen the body, but excellent counties will provide subsidies. If you can represent the county and win the championship in this sports meeting, in addition to the bonus from the court, the county will also provide additional subsidies. There are many benefits! "
"Yes! In addition to money, the key is honor! I can break out among the counties and bring more glory to my hometown!"
"No! If nothing else, just ten thousand gold is enough for an ordinary person to earn for more than ten years without eating or drinking!"
"Hey! Let's put it this way, there are quite a lot of benefits to being a champion!"
The people who learned the truth suddenly realized.
No wonder so many athletes from all over the world participate, it turns out there are so many benefits!
"Oh! If I had known, I would have made my son become an athlete!"
The people who realized it later regretted it too late.
"Hey! Do you think it's so easy to be an athlete? In addition to training hard, you also need to have that talent! Your son is as skinny as a bamboo pole. If he can't carry it on his shoulders or lift it with his hands, he will be kicked out of the preliminary round. !”
A woman who knew a little bit about the situation in her family immediately began to mock.
"Hmph! Who are you saying can't carry it on the shoulders or lift it with the hands? My son is in good health...!"
The woman who was ridiculed stopped and immediately retorted, "That's better than your son. He's as fat as a ball. He doesn't know where to hold him when he falls!"
"Humph! Although my son is fat, my daughter is in good shape. She has already learned to swim and has been admitted by our county. If she performs well, she will be able to represent our county in the swimming event in the sports meet in three years!"
The woman shook her head proudly.
With the popularity of sports, there are gradually more and more sports events!
In addition to the initial table tennis, badminton, basketball and football, gymnastics performances, swimming, synchronized swimming, archery, track and field, volleyball, weightlifting, wrestling and other events have been added!
Moreover, in addition to men, there are also special sports games for women!
Since the folk customs of this era were relatively conservative, it was impossible for the women's games to be held at the same time as the men's games, so the women's games were held after the men's games. All events and awards were the same!
It's just that only women are allowed to enter the auditorium of the Women's Games!
As for the Men’s Games, both men and women can watch!
The sports venue is large enough to accommodate 100,000 people watching at the same time!
The drawings were naturally drawn by Ying Feiyu, and the construction was undertaken by the Ministry of Industry!
On the day of the sports meeting, people who bought tickets came in one after another with their tickets and were very excited!
This is Great Qin's first sports meeting.
When I arrived at the venue, I was immediately shocked by the spectacular scene!
In the middle of the venue is an open space with various facilities placed on it. It is divided into four areas by chairs in four colors: red, orange, blue and yellow.
The ticket has the corresponding area code, row number, and seat number.
The chairs are higher in each row, so even if you sit at the back, your view will never be blocked by the heads in the front row.
It’s just that the back is too far away from the center movement point, so you can’t see it very clearly!
During the sports meeting, Ying Zheng specially announced that the morning court would be waived and that the ministers would be given a few days off to watch the games!
Of course, every department in the DPRK must be on duty in turn, and there must be no empty posts!
Once something important happens, you must report it as soon as possible. You must not hide it or fail to report it, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!
As for some insignificant things, especially those that are flattering, there is no need to waste time reporting them!
Once this was announced, the ministers thanked him profusely!
This is the first time Great Qin has held such a large-scale sports meeting, and they have always wanted to participate.
Many of them have already asked their families to buy tickets secretly, thinking that they would secretly watch the second half after the morning ceremony!
Now, His Majesty has given them a holiday, so they can watch the game openly!
Unexpectedly, in addition to the holiday, His Majesty also reserved seats in the front row for them to watch for free!
I can't find such a good thing, so of course I accept it happily and shout long live it!
The minister who bought the ticket before did not show any publicity and quietly gave the ticket to his family to watch, while he sat in the front row with other ministers!
Ying Zheng, Lian'er and several wives with children arrived at the venue early and found a seat specially prepared for them to sit down!
After all, they have different statuses. There are various fruit snacks on the table in front of them. It is very comfortable to eat snacks while watching the game!
Ying Feiyu also got up early, made some preparations, and then came with the princes.
In addition to the four gates prepared for the common people, the venue also has a VIP channel, which is prepared for people with special status like them!
Ying Feiyu's attentiveness made even Ying Zheng sigh, "You are my son!"
If he were born into a foreign race, I'm afraid there would be no country like Da Qin in the future!
Of course, he didn’t say the second half of the sentence, but everyone understood it!
Everyone found their place in time before the opening ceremony of the sports meeting.
Everywhere you look, there are dense crowds of people.
Everyone is eagerly looking forward to seeing what the opening ceremony will be like!
"Welcome another morning, bringing new air, the smell changes and the taste remains unchanged, the fragrance of tea is full of friendship...!"
At the beginning of the opening ceremony, a pure and sweet child's voice sounded in the center of the venue.
The sound like the sounds of nature, coupled with the beautiful melody, shocked everyone's jaws as soon as it started playing!
"This... what kind of opera is this? Have you never heard of it?"
"I don't know, I've never heard of it!"
"Isn't the sound so nice...?"
As soon as the music started playing, the people were shocked.
"Xianyang welcomes you, like music that moves you, let us all work hard to surpass ourselves! Xianyang welcomes you, anyone with a dream is great, and with courage, miracles will happen...!"
For this opening ceremony, Ying Feiyu specially borrowed this popular song from later generations, slightly changed it and found someone to arrange it.
The effect is quite shocking.
Even Ying Zheng was stunned in his seat and listened carefully!
"What a welcome greeting to Xianyang!"
"Anyone with a dream is great!"
After singing the song, the audience burst into enthusiastic cheers. Ying Zheng was also moved and clapped his hands in praise.
"No, I want to cry...!"
The common people were also moved and confused!
