As the saying goes, "There are those who love Monkey, and there are those who love Zhu Bajie." There are no absolutes in the world, so not all teachers hate Jiang Haichao. The physical education teacher was an exception, and he regarded him as the favorite in his eyes.
Since childhood is like becoming a person like his father, Jiang Haichao has been practicing with his father since he was a child, so he naturally became a good athlete in the class.
He is only in the third grade of elementary school, but he has developed a strong body through practicing stone locks and moving poles. In addition, he and his father often went to "Penghai" on weekends to fish for sea food to supplement the family's income, so he never went hungry even in these three difficult years.
Compared with the gaseous children of the same era, he is well-nourished, has excellent physical fitness, and has the potential to become an excellent weightlifter.
The physical education teacher was a weightlifter and regarded him as a treasure as soon as he discovered this young talent and quickly recommended him to join the weightlifting team of the sports school.
Unexpectedly, on the first day after joining the team, Jiang Haichao went to the swimming pool of the sports school for a private swim after training. He unexpectedly revealed his excellent swimming talent and actually attracted the swimming coach of the sports school to come over. The weightlifting team went to ask for someone.
As a result, the two coaches almost started fighting over this sports talent. In the end, they not only had a quarrel in the office of the sports school leader, but also privately found Jiang Haichao's home, and repeatedly talked to him in a bole manner. When talking to their parents, they all hoped that Jiang Haichao would practice with them wholeheartedly.
But in the end, neither of the two coaches expected that Jiang Qisheng, the child's biological father, would actually make an unbelievable decision - practice both!
In the eyes of the two coaches, this was Jiang Qisheng's amateur decision-making, so they explained to him that practicing both would mean that he could not practice well in one, because people's physical strength and energy are not enough to cope with it, and recovery is also a problem.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Qisheng said, "Don't worry about your children suffering. My son from Black Rock Reef is good both above and below the water. Even if he doesn't go to a sports school, he still has to practice martial arts with me and go into the sea. You guys The amount of activity in the school is nothing! So you teach him how to teach him, just give him more energy and save him from fighting and causing trouble outside."
Well, just like that, Jiang Haichao actually became the only double talent in the sports school, and also became a good son that his father was proud of.
In order not to disappoint his father, Jiang Haichao has been practicing hard during the four or five years in the sports school. He is not afraid of pain or hardship, and is full of resilience. He really endured it. Whether weightlifting or swimming, he won countless medals in district competitions and city competitions. At least he started with a silver medal, and even broke the provincial junior record. If he hadn't caught up with the "movement", judging from his prospects and potential, he would have at least become a double national champion.
But it is a pity that no one can escape this unprecedented disaster that has involved the people of the whole country. With the arrival of 1968, not only the national sports system was paralyzed, sports schools were closed, sports teams were disbanded, and Jiang Haichao's originally bright future was shattered. Even his father was accidentally killed when he was hit by a stray bullet from a Bincheng fighting group while delivering goods.
The death of his father is an unbearable disaster for Jiang Haichao's family. His mother is unemployed and his sister, who is two years older than him, is still in school. The whole family's livelihood has always been supported by the father alone. So from this moment on, the family's future livelihood became a huge problem.
When Jiang Haichao buried his father's urn in the grave, he cried uncontrollably. His heart-breaking cry shocked the people around him. From then on, he couldn't shed a tear, and no matter how uncomfortable he felt, he never cried again. Because his father once told him that men cannot cry. This time, he completely cried all his tears in advance.
So when Jiang Haichao came back from his father's graveyard, he suddenly felt that he had grown up. On the quiet and sunny mountain path, he held his mother and sister, who were crying so hard, with one hand and felt that he was walking in the steps of his father. From that moment on, he made up his mind that no matter what, he would support the family like his father.
Jiang Haichao, who is only fifteen years old, is still underage and cannot take over his father's job. So while receiving a pension of more than ten yuan a month, he resolutely picked up his father's "Net Drifter" and "Abalone Cutter" and returned to the sea where he had been intimately connected with the old Jiang family for generations.
The spirit of his father seems to be attached to Jiang Haichao, blessing him and guiding him to defeat the sea again and again. Get rich loot from the sea again and again.
According to the know-how taught by his father, he can retrieve goods from the underwater areas of "Yunwu Cliff" and "Skull Cave" that ordinary people cannot. Relying on the physique honed in the sports school, he set a record of diving 30 meters deep with bare feet. With his good martial arts skills, he repeatedly taught the scoundrels and scoundrels in the fishing village who bullied his young age and wanted to plunder his harvest. His heroic temperament and responsible person quickly gathered a group of people around him who truly admired him. Good brothers with their own strengths.
In this way, the double champion of the sports school disappeared completely. Three years later, Jiang Haichao, who replaced his father and joined the "Crane Club", became a legend among the "Haichangzi" on the northwest coast.
It's just that now that he has grown into a real man, he can no longer settle down in the ordinary daily life of the city.
He understood his father's mood more deeply. He suddenly understood why his father liked to fight with fists and be the judge on the road so much. For men like them who were raised by the sea, not only do their self-esteem always come first, but they also cannot stand the filth and all kinds of filth in the world.
The same goes for him. He looks down on those leaders who only know how to follow the baton of their superiors and engage in "class struggle" every day. He also despises ordinary workers who endure silently, have rigid thinking, and voluntarily give up the right to decide their destiny. What made him even more unbearable was the unremarkable job of earning about thirty yuan a month, transporting goods like a mule all day long.
On the contrary, he longs to be recognized by others, longs for others to be in awe when his name is mentioned, and longs to build unparalleled achievements through constant challenges. But in the city, these opportunities will never be available to him. He has no relatives and a humble status here. If he wants to get all this, only the sea can give him.
As a result, he became the most absentee worker in the "Crane Club", but he also loved the sea even more. He spent almost half of each month at the beach with his brothers.
The unit leaders may look down upon Jiang Haichao's arrogance and taking matters into his own hands. Thinking that he was the biggest "thorn", all his subsidies were deducted for absenteeism.
But Jiang Haichao himself didn't care at all. In fact, just for that amount of money, their whole family would go hungry. But Dahai was extremely generous to him. The gifts he gave him every month were not only enough to keep the people in the unit working for several months, but also gave him a kingdom to rule.
The beaches on the northwest coast are his territory, and people here regard him as a role model and respect him extremely. In turn, he was loyal and generous to these people.
Whether he knows someone or not, as long as "Hai Bangzi" asks for his help, he will do his best to help. Once a conflict arises between "sea bumpers", he can resolve it with just one word, so there are fewer and fewer conflicts on the coast. And his subordinates also followed him and made a lot of profits from the sea.
Jiang Haichao was extremely satisfied with this current situation in life. He was relieved that he had finally become as great a person as his father. The source of his power is the sea. As long as he has this sea, he is not afraid of anything.
What he never expected was that one day, his authority, which he thought was impregnable, was openly challenged by two boys from the capital.
The even more terrifying result was that these two boys, who were six or seven years younger than him, actually won! And win with dignity, win with fairness!
Why did the sea abandon him? There must be a mistake somewhere!
But faced with this result, can he deny it? Can he regret it?
Yes, he can!
As long as he says a word and denies it when he returns to the shore, his brothers will definitely believe him and stand on his side. His territory would thus be preserved, and he would still be the king of the northwest coast.
But if he does this, is he worthy of these people who trust him from the bottom of their hearts? Is he still worthy to be his father's son? If his brothers knew the truth, how would his father view him if he were alive!
Needless to say, the brothers will definitely regard him as a despicable and vain little boy! Even his father would feel deeply ashamed of him underground and find it hard to feel at ease!
Those two people from the capital will even regard him as a subject that can be made fun of at any time throughout their lives!
So...he can't...he can't become a coward that makes himself disgusted and hated...
June 10, 1977, was truly an unprecedented and gloomy day in Jiang Haichao’s life! It was also a day that made the "Haichengzi" in Bincheng feel panic and disbelief.
This day is so similar to the day in 1898 when the Qing Dynasty signed the "Sino-Russian Treaty"!
No one could have imagined that on the coast of "Yunwu Cliff", the invincible and famous "general" would actually admit defeat. In accordance with the agreement, Jiang Haichao handed over his right to rule to the two people from the capital!
The legend about "the first hero on the northwest coast" was also shattered at the same time!
