The two groups of people walked toward each other, getting closer and closer. Ye Gongchao had a smile on his face, while Chen Muwu was filled with anger.
"Chen Hanchen, a Ph.D. from Cambridge University, has now stayed in Cambridge to obtain a teaching position. He is one of the most powerful scientists in China and even the world, and is also my best friend, Ye Gongchao.
"Brother Hanchen, let me introduce these people to you..."
The strong smell of alcohol came from Ye Gongchao's mouth and nasal cavity, which made Chen Muwu very disgusted.
He directly interrupted Ye Gongchao's compliments to him in a bad tone: "Gongchao, are you okay tonight? I happen to have something I want to talk to you about these days, and I happened to meet you on the road today, so I might as well choose a day Why don't you go to the car and talk to me."
"B-but, I haven't introduced them to you yet!"
"It's nothing to worry about. We have a long way to go. I won't say whether we'll see you again in the future. I'm sorry, everyone. Let's take the first step."
After finishing speaking, Chen Muwu took action directly, grabbed Ye Gongchao's sleeve, turned around and left.
There were some small comments coming from behind, such as "Is his name Chen Muwu?" "Why does he cost as much as 2,580,000 yuan?" but Chen Muwu didn't take it seriously.
Doesn’t listening to the cries of crickets prevent you from planting crops?
If the two of them really got into a fight, Chen Muwu would never be a match for Ye Gongchao, who had been practicing martial arts since childhood.
But now he was much more powerful in terms of momentum. In addition, during the more than a year together in Cambridge, Ye Gongchao always treated Chen Muwu as a brother, so he followed him obediently.
Although de Broglie could not understand Chinese, just by observing Chen Muwu's expression, he knew that he was very angry now.
As a result, he no longer had the mood to continue shopping in Chinatown, so he turned around and caught up with the two of them.
Not being able to speak Chinese was really inconvenient. Deborah was thinking in his mind whether he should find a Chinese tutor for himself, so that communicating with Chen Muwu in the future would be much easier.
A group of three people walked to the car. Debroglie saw that the two people seemed to have something to say, so he condescended to sit in the front row and gave up the back seat to Chen Muwu and Ye Gongchao.
Before getting in the car, De Broglie had already confirmed it with Chen Muwu, so he asked the driver to drive directly to the villa in the suburbs where he had been living for the past few days.
"Brother Hanchen, what do you want from me?"
Originally, Ye Gongchao was not clear-headed after drinking too much, but now he followed Chen Muwu into the car in a daze. Even now, he is still a monk two feet tall and confused.
"More than ten days ago, you said you wanted to familiarize yourself with the environment around the school, so you moved out from Lu Yi's place. So when you said you were familiar with the environment, did you mean that you were familiar with the tavern?"
"They, they are just new friends I have met recently. You know, I just came to Paris and I don't know French, so I can only stay with the Chinese compatriots from China for the time being."
“What bullshit friends, they’re just a bunch of bad friends.
"You have been studying abroad since you were a child, and you may not have much exposure to traditional Chinese culture. Today I will reluctantly teach you a lesson.
"During the Three Kingdoms period of the Later Han Dynasty, there was a friend Guan Youan and Hua Ziyu. They studied and farmed together. Although they lived in poverty, they were considered self-sufficient.
"One day, two people were plowing in the field. Suddenly Guan Youan hoeed out a piece of gold from the ground, but he regarded the gold as no different from a clod of soil, and waved the hoe and pulled the gold aside.
"But Hua Ziyu didn't think so. He threw away the hoe and bent down to pick up the gold. He dusted off the dirt on it with his sleeves and carefully put the gold nugget into his arms. Guan Youan didn't say anything when he saw this.
"Another day, two people were sitting on the same mat reading. Suddenly a magnificently decorated carriage passed by outside the door. Guan Youan turned a blind eye and was still reading to himself, but Hua Ziyu But he threw down the book and ran outside the door to watch carefully.
"After the carriage left, Hua Ziyu turned around and came back, only to find that the original mat had been cut in half by Guan Youan. The latter said to the former, you are no longer my friend."
Although Ye Gongchao was drunk and his reaction was a little slower, he could still tell that Chen Muwu was criticizing Sang and Huai.
Under the dual effects of alcohol and shame, his face turned redder, and he tried to defend himself, but was speechless.
Chen Muwu continued: "You said you wanted to leave Cambridge University and go to Paris to continue your studies, and I had no objection.
"But if this situation is what you call further education, then I think I have to replace Ye Shibo and educate this junior like you."
Ye Gongchao knew that he had done something wrong this time, so he stopped saying anything and could only pretend to look out the car window and look at the street scene beside the road.
After consuming a large amount of alcohol, the brain's reaction is indeed likely to be slower.
It took a few minutes for Ye Gongchao to react, so he shamelessly turned his head back and asked Chen Muwu: "Brother Hanchen, where are we going?"
"You and I go back to Louis' place for a few days to cut off contact with your fair-weather friends. I just have a new idea, and your summer vacation is still so long. I think you might as well just stay there and take care of this." The second book can be written. And didn’t you just say that you still can’t speak French? By coincidence, I think you can also learn how to speak French with Louis. He is the old Parisian with the tricolor flag, The emphasis in his speech is also an authentic aristocratic accent."
Chen Muwu killed him first and then reported it, and then took Ye Gongchao back.
The first book in George Chen's series has just been released, and the members of the Apostolic Society have not yet informed him of the sales situation.
But Chen Muwu estimated that it should be no different. After all, this magical book is enough to crush everything in the British reasoning world.
So he made an impromptu decision to take advantage of the ten days and a half that he was still in Paris to gather Ye Gongchao's wool for the last time.
As for the content of writing, that is completely irrelevant.
This time, I might as well write "No Survival" first.
Ye Gongchao was still drunk at this time, and he couldn't remember the general content and tricks of the conversation with him. He would have to wait until tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to talk to him again after he had completely sobered up.
So Chen Muwu simply leaned on the car seat and closed his eyes to rest.
It wasn't because he was tired, but just because he had nothing to do in the car.
Although he participated in the Olympic Games in the morning, the intensity was not even 10% comparable to his usual training.
…
If a person is unlucky, even a mouthful of cold water can clog his teeth.
Troublesome things came one after another. Best, who had just returned to the house on the outskirts of De Broglie and had been alone for a day, approached Chen Muwu again with a bad look.
"Chen, come here, I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter, Lawrence, what makes you make such a fuss."
"Today you went to the opening ceremony without training, so I took some time off. I saw your registration form and found that you actually signed up to participate in the 200-meter breaststroke competition?
"Why have you never told me about such an important thing? We have only practiced freestyle these past few days."
Well, it turns out that this is what happened. Is this what this British person is like?
"I feel that I can swim quite fast in breaststroke, so I also signed up and planned to give it a try. Of course, the main events are these three freestyle events. If I can also get results in breaststroke, of course it would be the best, but if I can't get it, it's okay. It doesn’t matter. It’s just a side project.”
Chen Muwu comforted him.
But Best still refused: "But this is not the crux of the problem. After seeing the news, I looked at the swimming competition schedule. Starting from July 15th, you will face double competitions in one day. Condition:
“On the 15th, there will be the preliminaries of the 200-meter breaststroke in the morning and the finals of the 1,500-meter freestyle in the afternoon;
“On the 16th, in the afternoon there will be the semi-finals of the 200-meter breaststroke, followed by the qualifiers of the 400-meter freestyle;
“Similarly on the 17th, there is the semi-final of the 400-meter freestyle in the morning and the final of the 200-meter breaststroke in the afternoon;
“The 18th is barely considered a day off, and I will only participate in a 400-meter freestyle final in the afternoon;
“Then on the 19th, it became a double event, with the 100-meter freestyle qualifying and semi-finals held in the morning and afternoon respectively.
“Finally, on the 20th, I will participate in the 100-meter freestyle final.
"I'm really afraid your body won't be able to handle such a high-intensity competition schedule.
"It doesn't matter whether I can get results in the breaststroke event. I'm just afraid that by participating in one more unnecessary breaststroke event, I won't be delayed in the freestyle event where I have a winning streak in the end.
.
"Chen, otherwise we will give up the breaststroke. The important thing is to participate in the 1500-meter freestyle. Keep the 400-meter championship, and then try to see if we can win the 100-meter championship again, right?"
When saying this long paragraph, Best's brows never relaxed from beginning to end.
It can be seen that he is really concerned about Chen Muwu's participation in the swimming competition, and the solution he proposed is indeed the safest arrangement in the eyes of ordinary people.
But Chen Muwu was not an ordinary person after all, so he patted Best’s shoulders a few times and comforted him: “Lawrence, please rest assured about this matter.
"A Chinese philosopher once said, 'Don't fight an unprepared battle.' You can sleep peacefully tonight, and when you get up tomorrow, I will show you a big killer weapon."
Chen Muwu spoke very lightly, but how could Best, who was so worried, sleep?
The second day of the opening ceremony, Sunday, July 6th.
The track and field events have started, and there was an episode in the Colombe Stadium.
British sprint star Eric Liddell refused to participate in the 100-meter qualifying event because he was a devout believer and the qualifying day was Sunday, a day to worship God.
So even though Prince Edward, Prince of Wales, personally came to persuade him, Liddell still refused to participate in the game.
This made Prince Albert, who was following his eldest brother, very happy.
Of course, the reason he was happy was not because the British player Liddell had withdrawn from the race, but because in the quarter-finals held that afternoon, the player who ran a best time of 10 seconds was also a British athlete.
It was Harold Abrahams from Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge University, whom Best had introduced to Chen Muwu before.
But Best was not in the mood to care about the various things that happened to his national team on the track and field.
Now he just wants to know whether the killer weapon Chen Muwu mentioned was a lie to him or whether it was true.
Because in Best's eyes, freestyle and breaststroke are completely two swimming styles.
Just because Chen Muwu swims fast in freestyle does not mean that he can also achieve good results in breaststroke.
Best guessed it right. In terms of breaststroke level, Chen Muwu really wasn't too confident.
But this does not mean that Chen Muwu cannot achieve good results in the breaststroke event in this year's Olympic Games.
Who said you have to swim breaststroke to compete in breaststroke events?
At least in 1924, Chen Muwu could swim butterfly in breaststroke competition.
Butterfly is the latest of the four swimming styles and was only invented in 1933.
And for it to enter the Olympics and become a specialized swimming event, we had to wait until Melbourne in 1956.
For more than 20 years, butterfly stroke has been regarded as a variant of breaststroke, and it has dominated the breaststroke competition.
The reason why he was considered to be breaststroke without fouling is because the standard name of breaststroke is breaststroke, which literally translates into Chinese as breaststroke or stomachstroke.
Although Chen Muwu can't swim breaststroke well, his speed in butterfly stroke is also remarkable as he performs butterfly stroke in addition to freestyle swimming.
So when Chen Muwu swam two hundred meters in the training pool using the butterfly stroke, Best once again looked at the numbers on the stopwatch in his hand and lost his mind.
What kind of magical swimming style is this?
The number on the stopwatch stopped at two minutes and thirty-two seconds, which was nearly twenty seconds faster than the latest world record of two minutes and fifty-four seconds set by German Eric Rademacher in Magdeburg in April this year. time.
It is already surprising that Chen Muwu is only a few steps behind the New Zealander from Oxford University in Thames.
But his current speed is equivalent to being more than 20 meters behind the world record holder.
While others were still sprinting in the middle of the lane, he had already reached the finish line.
What a monster is this!
When Best finally came to his senses, he reported his results to Chen Muwu in the water.
The latter lay on the bank and raised his eyebrows at the former.
He seemed to be saying: How is it? Didn't I lie to you, buddy?
Best knew that Chen Muwu was a genius, but he never thought that he could geniusly develop a new posture that increased the breaststroke speed by more than 20 seconds.
Although he also wanted to ask Chen Muwu where this posture came from, but at this time Best left the training ground dutifully.
He did not go to report this shocking news to others, but returned to his room and dug out the competition regulations jointly written by FINA and the Olympic Games organizers that he carried with him.
Best wanted to see if there were any violations in this new swimming style invented by Chen Muwu.
Huang Tian paid off, and Best actually found a flaw in this new breaststroke, that is, Chen Muwu's leg kicking action did not meet the standards.
Chen Muwu, who did not believe in evil, asked for the competition rules and carefully read the passage circled by Best.
This is indeed the case, but Best only found violations in the legs, which means that his newly "developed" paddling action is completely fine.
However, there is still one week left, enough for Chen Muwu to modify and adapt to his swimming style.
He switched to using butterfly stroke paddles and breaststroke legs. After trying this for four or five days, his speed stabilized within two minutes and forty seconds.
Because the commute from the current country house to the open-air swimming pool in Turielle where the swimming competition is held is relatively long.
So two days before the start of the game, De Broglie moved Chen Muwu to a property he owned near the swimming pool.
…
Kikujiro Ishii, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to France, has had a mixed summer.
At the last Antwerp Olympics in 1920, Ben had already won a silver medal in men's tennis singles and doubles.
In this year's Paris Olympics, Ben sent a huge delegation consisting of 19 athletes and nine coaches.
These athletes have all experienced the test of their own domestic trials and the Far Eastern Games jointly held by China, Japan and the Philippines.
Their intention is obvious, that is to win the first prize in this Olympics and win the first Olympic gold medal in history for Ben.
Even in the embassy where Ishii is located, there is a new diplomat named Okazaki Katsuo who signed up to participate in the 5,000-meter and 10,000-meter long-distance races.
It's a pity that "the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny."
The Olympic Games are now more than halfway through, but not only has this delegation not received any gold medals, but in terms of medals, there is only one athlete named Katsutoshi Naito, who won one in the freestyle wrestling junior lightweight competition. A hard-earned bronze medal.
Track and field field sent the largest number of athletes, a total of eight people. However, they were too red deer and failed in all the events they signed up for. The whole army was annihilated.
Especially Okazaki, who came from the Embassy in France, was so confident before the competition that he signed up for two competitions at once.
As a result, this loser fainted on the field during the 5,000-meter run. Omi laughed at the joke and even withdrew from the next 10,000-meter long-distance race.
This is really unreasonable!
After the Olympic Games are over, Okazaki Katsuo must be allowed to commit seppuku in front of the national flag!
In comparison, our swimming delegation, which has the second largest number of people, is very impressive.
On July 14, France’s Bastille Day, Ishii Kikujiro went to watch the wrestling contestant Katsutoshi Naito win the bronze medal.
Not long after he returned to the embassy, another staff member reported another good news to him.
Also on this day, young swimmer Katsuro Takaishi, who had just turned 18, ranked third among all athletes in the 1,500-meter freestyle semi-finals with a time of 21 minutes, 48 seconds and 2 seconds, and entered the finals. The final is tomorrow afternoon.
With this result, he is very hopeful that he can hit the gold medal.
So on the afternoon of the next day, our ambassador, Kikujiro Ishii, appeared in the audience at the Turiel swimming pool.
Like other members of this delegation, he looks forward to the athletes of the empire creating a cool summer miracle for 60 million people in this hot summer in the romantic city of Paris.
Isn't this a coincidence? This man's real name is Kikujiro. I really didn't make it up.
