Few people know that in fact, China established its first rugby team in 1990, the former Beijing Agricultural University rugby team; in 1996, the Chinese Rugby Association was officially established, and in 1997 it joined the International Rugby Team. Council and the Asian Rugby Association; in 1997, the national team was formed; in 1998, the National Rugby Championship will be held every year.
On this land, the history and heritage of rugby are far richer than imagined.
However, compared to the promotion of the three major sports, rugby has never been able to be truly promoted due to various constraints such as venues, competition systems, and culture. For rugby enthusiasts, this is always a pity. They hope that people Can appreciate the charm of this sport more.
They need a Yao Ming, they need a Liu Xiang.
Now, the opportunity has finally come!
Lei Qingkong lost his composure slightly. His rampant enthusiasm made him lose his temper. He finally waited for this day. From the day he heard that Lu Ke became the starting quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers, he had been looking forward to it. Looking forward to it. Lu Ke's ability to set foot on Chinese soil can make people really pay attention to rugby and love rugby.
Until today.
The boredom and hard work of working all night disappeared in an instant. Suppressing the excitement deep in his heart, Lei Qingkong quickly started typing on his phone.
Lei Qingkong: Let everyone mobilize and go to Pudong International Airport to welcome Bambi! The moment we have been waiting for has finally arrived! It's a football weekend! It’s Bambi’s weekend! Quick, let all those fans take action. Not only do we want to warmly welcome Bambi, but everyone also needs to go to major forums and forums to promote it, so that all qualified and capable fans from all over the country can gather!
Lei Qingkong: I will contact NFL China immediately, and you will immediately go to Weibo to promote it, and then notify everyone on the team, and publicize it extensively on WeChat and Weibo. This is our holiday! We're going to have a blast! We want to celebrate! Quick, everyone takes action!
Sun Tongfei: Uncle Kong, it’s two o’clock in the morning.
Zhou Yuxiang: Uncle Kong has been single and lonely for too long, and now his blood suddenly boils and he can’t bear it anymore.
Lei Qingkong: Xiangxiang, you can continue to talk nonsense. When the time comes, I will ask if we can have a training session with Bambi and you won’t play.
Zhou Yuxiang: No? Uncle Kong! I am such a kind, lovely, pure and beautiful shining little prince, can you have the heart to abandon me like this? If you want to abandon it, please abandon that stone lump of Afan, okay? He was too serious and accidentally injured Bambi. What should I do?
Zhang Sanfan: I want to tell Bambi, you think he is made of glass and cannot withstand collisions.
Zhou Yuxiang: ...Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Afan has also learned bad things! How can you do this? How could this be!
Lei Qingkong: Xiangxiang, you can continue.
Zhou Yuxiang: Uncle Kong, you are bullying me!
Lei Qingkong did not continue chatting, but sat where he was, temporarily put down the work at hand, leaned back on the chair, and began to think carefully: He meant all the words he just said.
In everyone's life, they should always have a source of passion, a dream and persistence. Even if they go through fire and water, they will not hesitate to contribute all their energy and enthusiasm. The result is not important. What is important is blooming, running and enjoying freely. The process makes the short life burst out with brilliant light.
This is why he likes Bambi so much.
They need a grand welcome ceremony.
…
For Pudong International Airport, this is an ordinary but extraordinary day.
What is ordinary is that flights taking off and landing are still coming and going, and planes arriving and departing are constantly rotating between farewells and reunions, as if nothing has changed; what is extraordinary is that the space in the arrivals hall on the first floor has been occupied by surging crowds. The place was packed with people, and what was even more amazing was that unlike the fanatical teenage fans who came to welcome the stars, most of them were tall and muscular men. The scene was really spectacular.
Such a scene caused many passengers who had just landed to cast curious glances. A few brave ones stepped forward to ask what was going on. When they learned that this was to welcome rugby stars, they all Everyone showed confusion, "Rugby? What is that? What is the relationship between olive oil and olive trees?"
Although for most people, rugby is still strange and even alien; but a small group of people who really love rugby are obsessed with it and crazy about it. Maybe their quantity is small, but their quality is unquestionable.
There were five hundred senior fans who came to pick up the plane at the airport today. The entire pick-up hall was bustling with fans. Even the corridor bridge on the second floor was full of fans. Every corner is packed. Even the pick-up teams for top-tier junior students in China may not have such a lineup and such enthusiasm.
The chatter of discussions and the sound of deep breathing filled the air. Every face was filled with excitement and excitement, eager to discuss the upcoming meeting——
About the chicken soup battle, about Hail Mary, about the zero-second offense... everything about Lu Ke, about all the details of the past season; of course, there are also about the bits and pieces after the meeting, what questions they should ask, Lu How will Ke respond, what will today's activities be like, and so on.
Lei Qingkong was a little nervous, because he was too eager and eager, so that when things were about to come, the unreal feeling of worrying about gains and losses made his stomach begin to burn, and the countless messy thoughts in his mind could not be clearly prioritized. I feel like all my thoughts are rushing in and I can't calm down.
"Bambi is out!"
A voice came from the crowd. In an instant, everyone turned their gaze away. The air suddenly solidified. The stagnant silence spread slowly, as if time and space had completely stopped. Come down.
The automatic door opened, and Lu Ke appeared in sight dragging a silver suitcase. He was wearing a simple white shirt, blue jeans, and a pair of canvas shoes. He looked like an ordinary college student. The young man walked out chatting and laughing with his companions.
So close, as if you could reach out and touch it.
Lei Qingkong finally found his voice, "Bambi!"
At this moment, time seems to be going back, back to the green years of college, and the days of fighting side by side with teammates. For victory and championship, everyone unites and sprints with all their strength. Whenever he successfully completes Once a tackle is made, teammates will cheer loudly, "Great job," and that sense of satisfaction fills the chest and makes the blood begin to boil.
"Bambi!"
With a simple shout, he once again got rid of the burden of life, got rid of the shackles of injuries, got rid of the shackles of age, and felt the vigorous vitality again.
Lei Qingkong straightened his back and shouted with all his strength, as if he was on the court before, shouting "touchdown" loudly, sweating, blood rushing, bathing in the sun, with a smile on his face Bloomed wantonly.
A shout, another shout, and another shout echoed loudly throughout the entire airport reception hall. In a trance, it seemed as if this was not Pudong International Airport, but Candlestick Stadium. The transformation and transfer of time and space made people feel... An illusion, the illusion of being there.
"Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!"
The mighty shouts came one after another. Lu Ke stopped in his steps with a face full of astonishment. He looked at the sea of people in front of him in surprise. He did not hide his surprise at all. He thought that this was just a simple thing again and again. It is an ordinary visit, because the publicity and promotion of rugby has not yet been carried out in China.
He didn't expect the pick-up team, let alone such a grand and spectacular scene.
The imaginary pick-up hall should be a daily scene of people coming and going. No one knows about his arrival, and no one cares about his arrival. He is just one of the countless ordinary passengers at Pudong International Airport, just like the vast sea. It's like dropping a pebble into it, and I can't remember any waves.
Before departure, Lu Ke even joked and bet with Laihe whether double-digit fans could come to pick him up at the scene. If there were, then Lu Ke would treat Laihe to a meal. If not, then Leh would treat Lu Ke to a meal.
But now it seems that this meal has his name on it.
Involuntarily, Lu Ke opened his mouth slightly and turned to look at his companions. He strongly doubted his own eyes and tried to find others for confirmation.
Vincent-Camp is Lech's assistant. Due to his age and physical condition, Lech was unable to follow him personally during this trip to the Magic City, so Vincent-Camp was sent to accompany him and be responsible for all Lu Ke's affairs. related business. He had just turned thirty, and he and Lu Ke still had a common language, and they were already familiar with him after a long flight.
In addition, physical trainer Andre Richardson also accompanied him and was fully responsible for Lu Ke's daily training.
At this time, Vincent was also full of surprise. He patted Lu Ke's shoulder hard and gestured, as if to say: Enjoy it, this is your moment.
The crowds in front of me were so turbulent, the shouts were so loud, the smiles were so bright, the emotions were so exciting, the whole world was included in a lemon-yellow halo, wonderful and moving, hot and wild, The enthusiasm surged and boiled, and everything from San Francisco to Shanghai remained unchanged.
Violent, windy, and endless.
Being in it, Lu Ke felt his chest filling up like never before.
He walked forward in a friendly manner, showed a bright smile, hugged, shook hands, and greeted the fans cordially. This simple action made the crowd completely excited, and the shouts and screams were completely out of control. and cheers swarmed in from all directions, bursting out with unimaginable energy.
