1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 6: Learning Martial Arts at the Children's Palace

At this time, a bell suddenly rang, and then the loud speaker said: "For life, protect eyesight, start eye exercises~"

Eye exercises were created two years before Xia Tian was born and have now become popular in primary and secondary schools in Yanjing.

It should be of some use...right?

However, these days, let alone computers and mobile phones, not many families even have televisions. There are very few people who become nearsighted because of reading.

After a quick glance, summer began to go out for a "tour".

Xia Tian: Are there any good classmates who are itching to get fucked today?

Xia Tian would specifically target classes of senior students and glare at them strangely in the hallway, but Xia Tian's trick didn't really work.

Those "active elements" in each class seemed to ignore summer. They turned their heads away and didn't even look at each other.

"Alas, kids nowadays have become so spineless. I'm glaring at you!"

There's no way. After being beaten by Xia Tian so many times, I have learned to remain calm.

The main reason is that it really hurts!

Xia Tian used all the knowledge about acupoints that he learned from Dr. Jiang on beating his classmates!
It was painful but left no wounds. After one punch, he collapsed to the ground, silently shedding tears, unable to even cry out.

Before, there were people who colluded with other schools and tried to "harm our school's outstanding student Xia Tian", but after coming here, they all cut off ties with their previous friends - don't come to me, just pretend I never knew you!
……

Just when Xia Tian thought today was going to be another boring day, he discovered something good.

A few "activists" blocked a small man in the toilet.

Now the toilets are all dry toilets, a long squat toilet, quite open. When the weather is hot, the smell is so bad, my god!
I usually don’t go to that place in the summer because my nose is too sensitive and it’s a pain!
But today is different. I haven't touched it for almost a week. My hands are itching! I have to put up with my nose.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Xia Tian shouted.

The boys looked up and saw that it was Xia Tian! They turned around and ran away.

The expressions of four or five people were out of control, their facial features were distorted, and their bodies seemed to be aching again.

However, with their weak arms and legs, Xia Tian caught up with two of them in one step, kicked one down, grabbed the other by the back of the collar and pulled him to the ground, then shouted to the other one who ran far away: "If you take one more step, I'll wait for you at the school gate!" The boy froze in place!

"Why are you crying? Be a real man!"

"Tell me! Are you still bullying others?"

"Not bullying? If you don't bully others, who should I hit?"

After a while, the brothers staggered away, supporting each other, and secretly made up their minds: never go to the school toilet again, and go home to pee if they have to hold their urine!

As for the unlucky little guy who was rescued by Xia Tian, ​​he opened his mouth several times but dared not make a sound - the iron fists that hit the brothers again and again were really scary!

The expressions of those brothers looked as if they were in pain as if their own father had died!
Xia Tian didn't pay much attention to this boy. He just felt that he looked familiar and should be from the next class. He didn't know his name and didn't want to know.

……

Dachun tried to recite "Quiet Night Thoughts", but forgot the first sentence. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't remember it, so he said, "Xia Tian, ​​your classmates are always afraid of you! You should fight less!"

Dachun: Xia Tian is right, reciting poems is not suitable for me!
Xia Tian was dismissive: Are you afraid of me? Do you think I care? I have been fishing on the lonely island for five years, and my heart has long been as cold as the fishing rod in my hand.

Thinking of the five years on the isolated island, he was touched again: "Actually, I don't want to fight, but I just feel that everything is a little unreal. I want to find some reality and excitement."

Xia Tian is usually quite rational, or even exceptionally rational, but once a scene or event touches a nerve, he will get carried away.

Although I always reflect, regret, and make correction plans afterwards, and then think, “I was wrong, I will do it again next time.”

Now the nickname of Crazy Xia has spread like wildfire, replacing his previous nickname of "Idiot".

Xia Tian: He acts like someone with a smart brain!

In fact, it’s a good idea to create the character of Xia Fengzi. Who would bother with a madman?

When you are young, you are stupid. When you grow up, you are crazy. It is normal to behave a little out of line. Because your brain is not working well.
Xia Tian is very cunning. Although he is a very active member of the school, he is very polite to his elders, adults and teachers. He presents a good image of being studious, versatile, mature, steady, half-adult and talkative. He is quite popular with uncles, aunts and grandpas and ladies.

When the children of the neighborhood were scolded by Xia Tian, ​​their first reaction was: Xia Tian must have hit you because you were naughty again! Why didn’t he hit others?
……

Seeing that Xia Tian was ten years old, Xia's father had some ideas in his mind. In his early years, his son was silent, and at that time he thought that even if his son could shout, it would be fine. In the past two years, his son has become normal, and he has become more and more clever. However, this bad habit of hitting people is really a headache.

Although fighting among children is not a big deal these days, and there is always a reason to beat someone up in the summer, one time a parent brought his child to our door.

As a result, Xia Tian exposed on the spot the bad things that boy had done in school, such as pulling girls' pigtails, throwing stones into the toilet when the teacher was in the toilet... In short, he was justified in beating him!

That parent also had a bad temper and was very proud, so he pulled out a belt and showed up on the spot to "be a strict father and educate his son"!
Even though it doesn't cause trouble, this bad habit cannot be corrected!
Dad Xia just wants Xia Tian to have a hobby!

He has loved reading, listening to music, and drawing since he was young, so send him to the Children's Palace to help him kill some of his extra energy.

It’s not a big deal to go up to your room and observe the stars every day!
Besides, Xia Tian has only one friend, Dachun, so Xia's parents are worried about his problem of making friends. It is a good idea to send him to the Children's Palace to meet more people.

The word "Children's Palace" originated from the Russian education system.

The Russians attached great importance to children's extracurricular education and as early as 1925 they clearly defined the task of establishing a national network of extracurricular education institutions.

These institutions complement traditional school education, helping young people consolidate school knowledge, learn vocational skills, stimulate students' creativity and potential, enrich their extracurricular life and cultivate their sentiments in their spare time.

With the help of the Children's Palace model, scientists emerged like mushrooms after a rain. When they grew up, they were not inferior to the United States in the aviation race, and even sent artificial satellites and spacecraft into space before the United States.

After the founding of New China, Tuan Tuan and educators successively organized groups to visit the Mao Bear to study, and the Children's Palace was an indispensable part of the visit.

Some of the Children's Palaces in the Russian Federation are located in the bedrooms of the czar and nobles, and can be said to be veritable palaces. We have retained the slightly distinguished name of "Children's Palace" to reflect the importance we attach to children.

In 1952, the Yenching Children's Home located in Beihai Park could no longer meet the activity needs of a large number of children. After much coordination and effort, on New Year's Day 1956, the Yenching Children's Palace was established on the north side of Jingshan Park.

For example, the China Welfare Institute Children's Palace and the Yenching Children's Palace in Shanghai have become templates for children's palaces in other places, and they also try their best to choose the best buildings for renovation.

The district-level Children's Palaces are not to be outdone. The Children's Palace in Shanghai's CN District is a Gothic-style villa that looks like a castle, and the Children's Palace in Yanjing's Xicheng District is located in a complete and exquisite courtyard house... Over the past few years, more than 130 Children's Palaces have been built across the country, which shows their prosperity.

The prosperity of the Children's Palace is also reflected in its excellent facilities.

With the strong support of the country, many of the best equipment were sent to the Children's Palace for children to learn and use.

The factory's advanced lathes, the exquisite musical instruments in the orchestra, the puppets in the hands of the artists, and the radios and guns and ammunition representing national defense technology have all become learning materials for the children in the Children's Palace.

In 1979, the China Welfare Institute Children's Palace purchased computers and in 1982, the Children's Computer Center was established.

The magnificent Children's Palace and various excellent facilities made the development of the Children's Palace enter its heyday at that time.

With the development of the Children's Palace and the introduction of professional facilities, many university professors will also enter the Children's Palace to guide the extracurricular activities of primary and secondary school students. At the same time, a large number of well-known social figures have also visited the Children's Palaces in various places to share their experiences in their professional fields.

Well-known scientists such as Mao Yisheng, Hua Luogeng, Huang Jiasi and Chen Jingrun have all directed the science and technology activities of the BJ Children's Palace; writers such as Ye Shengtao, Feng Xuefeng, Bing Xin, Lao She, Liu Baiyu, Qu Bo, Yang Mo, Zhang Tianyi and Han Zuoli are also frequent visitors to the literature group; art masters such as Qi Baishi, Jiang Zhaohe, Li Bozhao, Zhou Weishi, Guo Lanying and Hou Baolin have also made the literary and artistic activities of the Children's Palace rich and colorful...

(Of course, the author has only seen the Children's Palace in writing and has never been there)
The place to sign up for in the summer is the Yanjing Children's Palace in Jingshan Park, which is not far from home.

Dad Xia asked someone and enrolled Xia Tian in a painting class, wanting to give it a try first.

I went through the entire process, told my son not to do anything, and left Xia Tian there on his own.

There was no such thing as nanny-style care from parents in those days. Plus, Xia Tian had always been very independent, so his father was very relieved except for the beating issue.

On the first weekend, summer came back and everyone was very happy to see their expressions.

Mother Xia asked hurriedly, "Son, how is the Children's Palace?"

Father Xia hurriedly asked, "Xia Tian, ​​you didn't hit anyone, did you?"

Xia Tian rolled his eyes: "Dad, in your heart, am I a lunatic who beats people up at random?"

Mother Xia also raised her hand and hit Father Xia, "That's right, who are you talking about!"

Father Xia: You are not crazy, and you don’t beat people casually. You always find a good excuse...

Xia Tian happily shared her first day at the Children's Palace with her parents. The more Xia's father listened, the more he felt something was wrong: "What martial arts class? Isn't it a painting class?"

"Ah! Painting is great, there are painting classes. I was wandering around after painting and saw that they also had a martial arts class, so I went in and chatted with the people, and they accepted me."

Dad Xia suddenly had a bad feeling: "How did you talk to them?"
