"Jun Lin, the table tennis club will be selecting players for the IH conference in the past two days. As the director, you should attend." Uchino Jingping said to Lin Junxiu, "And the final registration form still requires your signature. Otherwise, the student union won’t recognize it.”

"Huh? I thought I could leave it all to you?" Lin Junxiu said with some regret.

Originally, Lin Junxiu thought that he would be very busy during this period, but he found that he was suddenly free. The crew of "The Baddest Gangster in History, Saburo" has not yet recruited all the actors, so some pre-production work can only be postponed indefinitely. And because the crew of "Five Fighting Boys" has the super director Shiyasu Yaguchi, all the work is organized in an orderly manner. Lin Junxiu only needs to check the progress every week.

"Thanks to you winning the bronze medal in men's singles last time, this year's table tennis club has recruited many potential newcomers. Moreover, this year's table tennis club is also very active, and several players are quite capable. If If possible, I suggest that we form a men's team to participate in the men's team competition." Uchino Jingping said, "The men's team is required to be composed of at least five regular members and two alternate members, and at the same time, we must ensure that at least one of them is dedicated to men's singles. players and a pair of exclusive men's doubles players. In addition, men's team members can also register for men's singles or men's doubles events at the same time. That is, as long as we gather seven people, we can participate in this IH Conference Table Tennis Championship for all men. It’s a group project.”

"The players are not the problem, the problem is the cost of participating. How much club fees do we have?" Lin Junxiu asked.

Japanese schools implement complete student autonomy, so students have to worry about many things by themselves. In elementary school, there are teachers to assist, but in junior high school, students are completely left alone. In high school, school teachers not only teach, but also provide psychological guidance and some employment opportunities. Apart from consultation, we don’t care about anything else.

The students themselves are responsible for everything from the school's open days, cultural festivals, sports meets, to the school's health inspections. Even the allocation of funds for student clubs is the responsibility of the student union. After the club receives the funds, it is responsible for its own profits and losses. If the funds are not enough , either raising funds from club members, or seeking sponsorship from businesses around the school, or sending donation letters to seniors who have graduated from the club, hoping to get their financial support. Even participating in the Japan High School Comprehensive Sports Conference (IH Conference) is signed up by each The club raises funds on its own, and the school can at most help solve transportation problems.

"The expenses are sufficient." Uchino Jingping said, "Our club has expanded several times this year, so the funds allocated by the student union have also been much more. Not to mention that the bronze medal you received last year was given by the school board and the alumni association. We have a lot of bonuses, and some OBs have also sponsored us with a lot of sports equipment, so we have saved a lot of expenses."

"Since you have the money, let's participate." Lin Junxiu thought about it and decided, "By the way, the registered players will directly open the internal selection competition. The ones with the best scores will participate, regardless of which grade they are in."

Lin Junxiu knows that many table tennis clubs follow an unspoken rule that only senior high school members can participate in the table tennis championships of the IH conference; while high school freshman and sophomore members can only participate in the table tennis trials at the end of each year.

"How about we also let the children from the junior high school play together? Set up singles and doubles championships for the high school group and junior high school group respectively? Do you think there are any prizes that we can give within the club?"

Lin Junxiu has been criticizing in the bottom of his heart, since you are a sports club, in addition to training, you have to compete! As a result, many school sports clubs not only do not organize inter-school events, but even intra-club events are not held. The reason is that school clubs are to satisfy students For healthy growth, competitions can easily cause frustration among some club members and are not conducive to growth. As expected, Heisei Abandoned House is completely abandoned!

"An internal competition within the club? Tsk, maybe parents will complain." Uchino Jingping reminded.

"Anyway, there will still be complaints about extra training for the IH conference in the future, so let them complain." Lin Junxiu said nonchalantly, "If a parent complains, just let his child withdraw from the club. The entire club is not for his family. If one child serves and other people's children have fun, what does it matter if they are pretentious? Just disclose my decision to the ministry. If the school has any objections, then we will directly withdraw from this year's championships and trials. , let them play by themselves!”

Lin Junxiu has no pursuit of table tennis honors. The reason why he is playing in the competition is because he feels that he must be worthy of the table tennis club. If the school feels that the table tennis club has no value, then he will give up the competition. In short, It’s not certain who is more embarrassed in the end? With Lin Junxiu’s popularity, his retirement will attract a lot of attention from the media.

"Okay, just follow your decision!" Uchino Jingping thought for a while and agreed with Lin Junxiu's decision.

The news that the table tennis club decided to hold an intra-departmental championship competition and a high school team selection competition quickly spread in the school. After all, as a boys' school without girls, boys will become very gossipy when they are bored. . And importantly, apart from the annual sports festival, Azabu High School seems to have no other large-scale sports activities.

In the past, Lin Junxiu was quite envious of the club life of Japanese high school students, but now it seems that everyone has their own misfortune. When Lin Junxiu was in China in his previous life, although he got out of school late, at least he could go play football with his classmates or roommates. I play football, basketball, etc., or I just mix in with the girls and play table tennis and badminton with a few girls I like. As a result, after being reborn as a Japanese high school student, although I also participate in the sports club, it seems that I am not like my classmates. The distance between them has also widened.

More importantly, when I was sweating, there were no girls screaming, only boys roaring... There was no sailor uniform, no long hair, just the pimples on the face of my good friend. Alas. , Sure enough, there is still no problem with girls! Look at these hot-blooded teenagers, they are so full of energy that they have pimples on their faces. What’s more, Lin Junxiu is embarrassed that he hasn’t seen a girl for a long time, why does he feel like he’s surrounded by girls? These young men are also very pleasing to the eye. As their eyes crossed, Lin Junxiu felt that there was a kind of ambiguity brewing... It was terrible!

However, what Lin Junxiu and the table tennis club did not expect was that this internal event spread so widely within the school that many people wanted to come and watch the game. Even the broadcasting department under the student union wanted to come. Covering the event. Because there were too many people who wanted to watch the game, Lin Junxiu had to move the game from the table tennis activity room to the school's gymnasium. Originally, the student union also suggested making it an open day for outside students to visit, but Lin Junxiu Sternly refused.

The Azabu High School men's table tennis team is mysterious to other school teams in Japan, and the biggest difference between student players and professional players is experience and mentality. Inadequate experience can easily cause them to be at a disadvantage against some uncommon players, and mentality problems are also

As a result, they are not good at playing against the wind. And the IH tournament is a single elimination system, so this is beneficial to Azabu High School. In order to prevent students from other schools from spying on information, the convinced student union said that it would send a disciplinary committee to watch the game.

Confirm your student status.

Although it sounds like this event is huge, Azabu High School is, after all, a private high school with a preparatory system, so the number of students is still limited, and the number of students assigned to various clubs is even more limited. Even though Azabu High School and the junior high school are in

Together, the internal trials of the table tennis club were completed in two afternoons. The intensity of the junior high school was average. On the one hand, it was due to everyone's technical and physical problems, and on the other hand, the junior high school did not involve the school team.

As a representative, everyone just has fun. But the high school division is much more intense, and it is very honorable to be able to represent the school in competitions.

Lin Junxiu is the unexceptionable men's singles champion, so he was naturally selected for the school team. This time, Lin Junxiu still did not play doubles with Uchino Jingping, but Uchino Jingping seemed to focus on doubles and found a boy who was a freshman in high school to play with him.

He formed a team. Not surprisingly, the two of them won the men's doubles championship and locked the main doubles spot in the school team. In the end, Lin Junxiu selected three singles and two pairs of doubles as the main selection, and he also brought a

For the twin brothers who are in the first year of high school, they can play singles or doubles.

With school team representatives, Lin Junxiu also rarely held a mobilization meeting within the club.

"Because we did not participate in this year's Kanto Conference, all players, including the men's team, must stand out from the Tokyo Conference to be eligible to participate in the IH Conference." Lin Junxiu was a little embarrassed when he said this, because he could actually participate.

At this year's Kanto Conference, he was busy promoting his record.

"There are only two places for the men's team in Tokyo! Although in the table tennis circle, Tokyo is not the strongest competitive area. But with the number of high schools in Tokyo, especially the number of famous sports high schools, table tennis in Tokyo is still the best.

Fierce battle area. If you cannot get two direct promotion places, you can only participate in the East Japan High School Table Tennis Competition as the third place, and then advance to the IH conference as the champion. But so far, all those who have entered through this channel

Almost all the schools in the IH conference were eliminated in the first round. Why? Because the competition is too intense and physical recovery is difficult. Therefore, we should not choose this path unless we have to.

As for the men's singles and men's doubles quotas, the entire Tokyo Metropolitan Conference has four quotas each; other top eight players who have not passed the quarter-finals can also participate in the East Japan High School Table Tennis Tournament to fight for two quotas each. But it is still

Due to the tight schedule, the players who advanced through this route did not go further in the end. In addition, since the competition is imminent, I have applied to the school for accommodation and additional training. If nothing else happens, it should be approved within this week. Although not

It’s forced, but I hope that all the main candidates and alternates can stay together on campus and participate in extra training.”

After the mobilization meeting, Uchino Jingping found Lin Junxiu and asked: "Jun Lin, does our school have shared dormitories?"

"Actually, there is." Lin Junxiu said, "On the east side of the third floor of the gymnasium is the dormitory, which has public bathrooms and laundry rooms. However, the football club and baseball club usually stay there because the football club's games are held in winter. , so their dormitory is not needed. When I went to tell the student union about the internal tryouts, I happened to see the basketball club applying for a dormitory there.

Because the football club has a large number of people, the dormitories they vacated were enough for us and the basketball club. The only problem is that the school cafeteria does not provide dinner, but I asked the manager of the baseball club and he said they It is a bento takeout that we have a cooperation with outside the school. Because this takeaway shop is owned by one of our alumni and is also the OB of the baseball club, it is a preferential cooperation all year round. The manager of the baseball club agreed to help us inquire and see our Can the table tennis club and basketball club also apply for discounts? I guess there won’t be a problem, because the football club has also taken advantage of the baseball club’s discounts for many years.
