In July 1981, the campus song "Olive Tree" from across the Taiwan Strait "wandered" to Beijing.
The wandering feelings and sad nostalgia in the song are things that young people in the capital have never been exposed to.
As this campus song became all the rage, Qiong Yao's romance also caused a stir in the mainland.
In Qiong Yao's story mode, there is a set of formulas that almost never change.
Women are often gentle and beautiful, while men are handsome and unrestrained.
They do nothing but cry and fall in love.
Girls usually speak their mind well, but boys always have a wealthy businessman father.
The two sides will be instinctively hostile to each other due to the disparity between rich and poor, and then torture each other emotionally.
But girls are poor and ambitious, and boys are willing to abandon their entire family fortune for their lovers.
In the end, the wealthy businessman dad will be moved by their innocent love.
Cinderella finally achieved perfection and was able to marry into a wealthy family.
Mainland boys and girls have never seen this Cinderella-style fairy tale used in a love story.
So for them, the experience of seeing Qiong Yao's works for the first time is tantamount to discovering a mysterious garden composed of romance, lingering, lovesickness and sadness.
They were surprised to find that love can be expressed in such a romantic way.
Therefore, everyone is attracted by the twists and turns of the plot, the triangle, the four corners, and even the five corners of the love relationship, and is deeply addicted to it.
As a result, many junior high school and high school students buy Qiong Yao's books in order to save money.
He doesn't hesitate to go to school on an empty stomach, or lie about the cost of teaching materials and stationery.
This will not only hurt your body, but also affect your studies.
In addition, the phenomenon of puppy love also took off.
Therefore, some people say that Qiong Yao's books are spiritual opium that poisons young people, while others say that she ignited the Cinderella dream for girls in the mainland.
Perhaps, most things in this world will always be like this.
In the eyes of different people, you will get completely opposite evaluations.
It is similar to the effect caused by Qiong Yao, under the pressure and resistance that is generally not understood by the current social environment.
Ning Weimin also successfully led Qu Xiao and Shi Kaili to become supermodels.
It allowed them to see more and more clearly a glamorous life that was completely different from ordinary people.
Of course, just relying on the touch of that conversation or a small temptation of lipstick will definitely not work.
That's just a pretty good start.
In fact, what Ning Weimin did for the two girls was far more than that.
In addition to providing encouragement and psychological comfort at any time and anywhere, Ning Weimin also specially found tickets for "Roman Holiday" and "Blue Bridge" for the two girls.
By taking them to watch in-house movies, they can intuitively appreciate the elegance and beauty that tall girls like them can show.
In response to the coach's request that the two girls practice more steps in private, Ning Weimin asked the coach to string together music tapes. Then he gave the two girls the small tape recorder and headphones that he and Zhang Shihui used to learn English.
, let them go home to find the feeling and practice more.
In this way, both Qu Xiao and Shi Kaili were deeply encouraged by Ning Weimin's sincerity.
From the thought Ning Weimin put in, they could feel his respect.
As a result, the two girls' minds settled down, their practice became serious, and their training began to get on track.
They even worked surprisingly hard.
In order to increase their practice time, they came up with an idea.
That is, after training every night, the two of them have to walk from the Drum Tower to Chang'an Street together, and then take the No. 1 and No. 8 buses home separately.
Speaking of which, this journey is definitely not close, almost nine miles.
Moreover, at this time in Beijing, at 90 o'clock in the evening, the streets are very dark.
Street lights are not only scarce, but also not bright enough.
Even on Chang'an Street, apart from the occasional sprinkler truck passing by, there are no more people.
But Qu Xiao and Shi Kaili are willing to walk back like this every day.
They put on headphones, listened to music, and experienced the technical tips taught by the coach and the rhythm of the music while walking.
Needless to say, when Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui knew about it, they were naturally obliged to act as bodyguards.
No matter what, I have to accompany two hard-working girls all the way to Chang'an Street every day.
Therefore, those who work the night shift and the cleaning workers on Chang'an Street in Beijing can often see a strange scene on July nights.
Almost at a fixed time every day, there are two men and two women, and their feet make a neat clicking sound.
Side by side, the elder sisters from Nanheyan walked together on the empty East Chang'an Street with cat steps.
They didn't look like lovers, nor did they look like brothers and sisters. No one spoke to each other, they just walked away in a high-spirited manner.
This is naturally very strange to people who know nothing about fashion models.
But just like that, the training days passed day by day, and the training effects began to show.
During the wonderful time that Ning Weimin and the others spent together, they not only left each other with close memories, but also began to feel the joy of walking.
Even Ning Weimin himself was surprised to find out.
The sense of joy and confidence inspired by the integration of pace and music is actually better than any material enjoyment.
Especially the two girls, it is definitely very different from the past.
Their persistence and hard work prove not only their perseverance but also their talent.
Both Taldor and Shireen began to shower them with more and more praise and attention.
They also use their posture and steps more often to set examples for the veteran players.
In fact, if we follow common sense, the better Qu Xiao and Shi Kaili perform, the more they will naturally feel threatened by the rest of the team.
It is very likely that you will receive rejection and hostility from the old team members.
But this era is a little different.
The culture of fair competition in the team is very healthy.
Everyone has a sportsmanship that emphasizes participation, friendship first, and competition second.
On the contrary, because they have sympathy for each other and can rely on each other to talk to each other to relieve the pressure and troubles from the outside world, they all get along well.
In addition, Ning Weimin came to the team and did not just focus on the two girls.
He is very aware of his real role in the model team, and has also done many good charity works for everyone.
For example, although there are no band-aids these days.
But Ning Weimin got iodine and cotton swabs for the girls in the team to use to treat their foot injuries.
Apply adhesive plaster to the inside of high heels or the friction area to relieve pain.
For another example, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui even hooked up with a small restaurant next to the Drum Tower.
Every day, a large bucket of hot tea and twenty large bowls of hot tea are brought from the small restaurant to replenish water for everyone and solve the problem of drinking water.
Also during the usual training sessions, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui would speak broken English to help everyone communicate with the two coaches on techniques and discuss issues.
Naturally, the old team members became more and more fond of the four of them and successfully accepted them into the group.
Even influenced by a few of them, some people spontaneously joined them in walking home at night.
Every day I would walk with them on the road from the Drum Tower to East Chang'an Street.
To be honest, at the beginning, the old team members had a certain degree of indifference and distance towards Ning Weimin and the others.
In fact, it’s not because I like to create cliques based on seniority.
The key is still not sure that they can really persevere and become true partners.
There is no doubt that both Pierre Carton and Song Huagui are quite satisfied with this result.
Now the two of them no longer have to go to the team to watch training every day.
Pierre Carton came every three or four days, and Song Huaigui came every two or three days. They were both reassured about the model training.
Song Huaigui also followed Ning Weimin's advice and bought five more small tape recorders and lent them to the team members in turn.
Then it was announced in public that the performance would be in October, and there would be more than a hundred sets of costumes, so everyone should have a chance to be on stage.
These two things made everyone even more excited.
And it is precisely because Ning Weimin is so popular that he is truly an indispensable member of the team.
As a result, the two newcomers who came to report later, Yang Wei who is 1.85 meters tall and Wang Jian who is 1.82 meters tall, were truly ostracized.
Everyone seems to be a little worried that Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui will be eliminated because of their height disadvantage, squeezing out the opportunity to perform on stage.
Of course, Ning Weimin would not let such a thing happen.
As a result, his generosity and generosity gained more trust and recognition from everyone.
If we really need to choose a captain at this time, I believe it must be him.
Because after all, not everyone has his ability to mess around in every aspect of the team.
