After feeding Yuki, Yuki was full of energy and her spirit was completely resurrected. Kitahara Shuji was embarrassed to take time off for group activities, so he took Yuki to meet Suzuki Noki.
For this Koshien competition, Suzuki Noki was well prepared. She has always planned things before taking action, and this time was no exception. She not only arranged accommodation and food in advance, but also used her personal connections to contact a society.
Teams use their stadiums for daily warm-up training.
The social people here usually refer to office workers, and baseball is not called the "national sport" in Japan for a reason. When you are an office worker in Japan, whether you like it or not, whether you are happy or not, you always have to know one thing.
Baseball.
In fact, the topic of baseball will not only appear among colleagues in Japanese companies, but will often be mentioned when talking to bosses and customers. Even Japanese people often use baseball terms to explain their work experience and relationship issues.
If you don't understand baseball at all, you won't be able to intervene in the company's most common topics such as "Can the Giants win next year?" and "I feel like Hanshin will be better this year!"
Although some people will answer "I don't like it very much. I'm not very interested in professional baseball itself", this will also cause an awkward moment that Japanese people dislike the most. In this regard, many Japanese working people have the same opinion.
: Even if you really don’t like baseball, you should pay more attention to related sports news - especially when your boss is a baseball fan. Generally speaking, this probability is very high, because he also came up from the bottom, even if
I didn't like it before, but I will be forced to like it later, otherwise I probably won't be able to become a boss.
There is nothing that can be done about it. Politics and religion are sensitive topics in the Japanese workplace. Talking about personal privacy is even more taboo. Second only to asking about income, in addition to the weather, colleagues, and superiors and subordinates also talk about sports. It is the safest, and baseball is the most popular sport in Japan - friends can indeed talk about women, games and other things, but if it is just chatting with ordinary colleagues or talking about it while drinking get off work drinks with your boss, It is easy for the evaluation to be lowered and labeled as "the mind is not on work" or "a waste house". This is definitely not a good thing.
For the above reasons, many office workers like baseball or are forced to like baseball. Generally, large companies will have a social team. The players are composed of employees of the company. They train for half a day and half a day, or train together on rest days.
It is considered semi-professional and also participates in a league called the "Urban Rivalry Baseball Conference" - Koshien is regarded as the gateway for college students to jump into professional baseball. This semi-professional league is also one of the channels to enter professional baseball, and there are even people who are directly recruited.
The lucky guy who got to play in the major leagues.
Therefore, playing baseball in a Japanese college is a good thing - this is one of the reasons why this club always has so many people, because the parents are very supportive, and being able to enter Koshien is the best of good things, just like a private school
The members of the Daifuku Academy Baseball Club, except for Kitahara Shuji, may not be favored by professional baseball, but with this experience, they will have a great advantage when looking for jobs in the future - oh, this kid was in high school.
It wouldn't be a bad idea to recruit the Koshien players and put them into the company's team!
Even if you are running business in the future, you will be better than others - if you want to build a good relationship with a big company, the fastest and most cost-effective way is to participate in the company's social team training. When the time comes, you will say, "I played in college."
If you have entered Koshien", you will definitely have a high chance of being invited to be a sparring partner. If you can also say "you have also won the acyanotic flag of Koshien", then there is no need to say that you will be invited 100%. If you are really good, you will be invited.
Long-term guidance, and after playing a few games like this, wouldn’t it make us familiar with each other? Once we become familiar with each other, wouldn’t it be easier to negotiate business?
It may be a little difficult to understand for people who have no social experience, but it is really a good thing for the future of students. Being able to participate in Koshien, not to mention the school providing room and board subsidies, allows parents to collectively raise funds, and parents are willing to pay - Suzuki
Naixi, the evil spirit, actually raised funds once and made some money to supplement expenses.
It’s not that she doesn’t have money. If she’s not greedy, she’s probably not a bloody capitalist.
It’s hard to say whether the students understand it or not. Maybe they have a vague feeling that this is a rare opportunity, or maybe they just feel youthful and passionate. But regardless of whether they understand it or not, they still train very seriously under Suzuki Noki’s encouragement -
- After winning the battle, their confidence increased again. They felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they really wanted to try to capture the Acyanotic Flag.
After Kitahara Shuji and Yuki rushed to the stadium, Yuki immediately threw himself into the training (wan) and practiced (shua), swinging the metal baseball with great force, even better than before, causing a cry of exclamation.
In order to recuperate his arm, Kitahara Shuji threw two balls to find the feel, then sat and read the tactical guide written by Noki Suzuki for him - after a game, even if the team did not know him before, he would definitely
He has also begun to pay great attention to him, and there is a high probability that a wave of attacking troops will be ushered in.
The training on the field is also aimed at the tactics of hitting and stealing the base. The fielding personnel practice the coordination of quickly chasing the ball in the infield, and their own base-stealing members also practice hitting and running and quickly getting on base after hitting the ball. This is basically the same.
This is the most training their team has done in the past half year. At present, it is just a daily warm-up after watching the game, which is regarded as a review. The middle-aged uncles in this social team are also full of interest and follow them.
Help as a referee and provide logistical services.
Kitahara Shuji sat on the sidelines for a while, and the person in charge of this social team approached him. He was a senior director of the company and an avid baseball fan. He first handed him a bottle of sports drink, and then
Wen Yan praised him a few words, and then tested his employment tendency - simply put, does he want to work in our company in the future? The salary is negotiable!
After thanking Kitahara Shuji, he politely declined the offer. The senior minister was not disappointed. He also felt that Kitahara Shuji was destined to play professional baseball and was unlikely to become an office worker, which was expected.
There is indeed nothing to be disappointed about, and he used a joking tone to remind Kitahara Hideji not to forget this incense relationship. If it becomes prosperous in the future, the two parties can cooperate - for example, give them a spokesperson or something.
Of course, Kitahara Hideji would not refuse such a favor. Even though he had no intention of playing professional baseball, he still smiled and nodded, and in turn praised the company. Although he only knew the name, this did not hinder him.
Talk about face and earnestly express that you will definitely cooperate if you have the opportunity in the future.
This is not entirely for socializing. With multiple friends and multiple paths, who knows when it will be needed? You can’t cooperate in baseball, but you can do other things if you have the opportunity in the future, and he is a very affectionate person. As long as someone asks for help,
He provided help, and he didn't mind repaying the other person a little more. He felt that this way the road would go smoother and smoother.
The senior minister was very satisfied. Kitahara Shuji was handsome, looked very pleasing to the eye, spoke well, and was sincere in dealing with others. It felt really good. He exchanged phone numbers and email addresses with Kitahara Shuji, and then asked him for a Zhang
After signing the signature, he left with satisfaction - there is no harm in getting in touch with such a young man as early as possible. Who can tell what will happen ten years from now? What should I do if I ignore you today, but I can't afford it tomorrow?
That is to say, his daughter is almost thirty, otherwise he would have thought of marrying Kitahara Hideji on a blind date - it would be very sad that she is almost thirty and still not married.
After sending the senior minister away, Kitahara Shuji lowered his head and continued to read the tactical guide. He is the defensive core of the entire team. It does not mean that he is useless if the opponent uses bunts. He needs to also target when pitching and try to improve
The possibility that the opponent's bunt hit will fail reduces the general hit success rate from 80%. Even if the opponent succeeds in hitting the ball, they should try to let the opponent bounce the ball near their infield fielding personnel to avoid actually causing the opponent's hit.
A base hit or a run scored.
This requires very high skills, a lot of experience and a lot of data analysis. He has no big problem with the former, but Noki Suzuki helps him make up for it by listing all the situations clearly for him. All he has to do is memorize them and write them down.
In your mind, just use the appropriate ball type and ball path under the appropriate circumstances.
This is a team sport, and of course the core cannot be missing, but winning still requires the strength of everyone.
But as soon as he lowered his head, he heard the sound of the camera shutter. He looked over and found an acquaintance - Eki Hanami from the private Daifuku News Department, the girl with glasses who wanted to be a reporter in the future, and Yuma Uchida's crush.
, for this girl, Yuma Uchida once again had a rare man, and had a fight with a bad boy.
Eki Hanami was able to take the photo from a distance without turning on the flash, but she didn't expect Kitahara Shuji to be so responsive and quickly came over to apologize: "I'm sorry, Kitahara-san, for bothering you."
Kitahara Shuji didn't dare to laugh, and said as calmly as possible: "It's okay, Eki-san." He had to tell Yuma Uchida later that this damn girl had a bad habit of taking secret photos. She forgot to take secret photos of bad gangsters and almost got caught and beaten.
Paused?
However, he asked curiously: "Didn't Eki-san go back to Nagoya?"
They participated in Koshien, which was a major event for the whole school. Many people came from far away to support them, and there were more than 600 people in total. No matter how rich the private Daifuku Academy was, it was impossible for so many people to live in Nishinomiya City.
——Originally, the place was very crowded during the Koshien competition, and the room and board charges increased more than three times, so after the support, these people went back to their respective homes, and would take the JR line for the next competition.
Kitahara Shuji didn't dare to laugh, and Eki Hanami didn't dare to look at Kitahara Shuji's face for a long time. The main reason was that the snow was too dazzling. If she liked Kitahara Shuji, she was basically humiliating herself. She just lowered her eyes and replied: "I haven't gone back.
, our news department has funding from the student union, so we can live here, keep an eye on the team's situation, and send news back at any time - everyone has high hopes for the team and is very concerned about the situation here!"
It turned out that he really became a reporter for the team! Kitahara Shuji did not speak for a while, mainly because he was not familiar with this person, but Eki Mika hesitated for a moment and asked: "Kitahara-san, can I take a group of photos for you alone?
?”
Kitahara Shuci was stunned and asked: "Do you need my cooperation?"
"No, it's fine as it is now!" Eki Hanami didn't dare to ask for too much. Girls generally think that Kitahara Shuji is difficult to talk and extremely cold. It would be nice if she can be photographed. She would also ask for more.
Dare not mention it.
"Then feel free to do whatever you want!" As long as it's not troublesome, Kitahara Shuji doesn't mind. He's not shameful, and Eki Hanami immediately became excited. She quickly opened her press bag: "Please wait a moment, I'll change it to 80.
Focused lens.”
As soon as she opened her bag, there was a complete set of SLR lenses inside. Kitahara Shuji looked at it and smacked his tongue - Are you so professional? That's awesome!
Even Hideji Kitahara has to admit that Japan's university community system is indeed very successful. Japan's economy is basically in a state of collapse and cannot be saved by gods. However, there is a reason why cultural and entertainment income accounts for an increasingly important proportion of GDP.
, the serious college student reporter in front of me is one of the examples.
From a hobby to a career, this is really amazing.
He couldn't help but ask: "Eki-san bought this by himself?" He didn't know photography, but he heard that SLR lenses were quite expensive. There were more than ten lenses in this bag, various filter lenses, and some
I don’t know if this little thing is worth a nice car, right?
"Not all of them, only a few of them are mine. I had to work for a long time to buy them. Most of them were allocated to me by the club. I have to hand them back after graduation. I can get the allocation thanks to Yuri-chan."
Ekihana published Yuki's special news, which aroused a great response. Now he is a popular star in the news department, and he is in his second year, so he immediately gets more opportunities and more rations.
She quickly changed the lens, and then said warmly: "Kitahara-san, just be busy with your own business, and just pretend that I don't exist."
She asked like this, and Kitahara Shuji followed suit, lowering his head and continuing to read the tactical guide, while Eki Hanami began to circle around him - the fixed-focus lens had excellent imaging, and she didn't have to worry about changes in focal length, so she could focus on her main thoughts.
In terms of composition, be prepared to take a series of pictures.
The more she took, the happier she became. After taking each picture, she looked at them one after another. She felt that every one of them looked good, and she couldn't bear to give up any of them. Is it because her photography skills have become stronger, or is this model particularly perfect? No matter what, this opportunity is not to be missed! Look back.
If the school newspaper is not used, it can be used as an exhibit at the cultural festival. If Kitahara-san agrees, some can even be sold.
She took one and a half photos of the memory card in one go before she was finished. She felt that Kitahara Shuji's confident temperament and concentrated expression when thinking were extremely perfect, and even the shadows on the side of his face were filled with art.
She was planning to do Kitahara Shuji for the next special issue, and this set of pictures could be called "The Tranquility Before the War". She thought about it and sent it back to Nagoya. Seeing the leisurely and confident posture of her ace, the school gave all her support.
