Chapter 104 Classmates and Fans

"Mr. Liang, what you just meant is..."

"You want him to represent the intangible cultural heritage slingshot project and participate in the shooting competition?"

A reporter asked, wanting to confirm the answer.

The rest of the reporters were also surprised.

Due to their work, most of them have already had a full understanding of the game in advance.

Therefore, everyone knows how valuable the shooting competition at this temple fair is!

This competition is different from all the previous ones.

It is not a performance, but more focused on competition!

The contestants who come to participate in the competition are basically hired by several bosses behind the scenes at high prices.

The business world is full of ups and downs, and there are open and covert struggles between companies.

The result of this shooting competition will even directly involve many commercial interests!

Many factors are intertwined.

This means that this shooting competition is far from being as simple as it seems!
So, when the reporters heard that Lin Nan was going to participate in the competition, they were so surprised.

Having a good sense of news is an essential professional quality for a journalist.

The reporters at the scene had already watched all of Lin Nan's live broadcast recordings on the Internet.

This made them more familiar with Lin Nan.

Although I know that Lin Nan does have some skills.

But it's still amateur, right?

How can they possibly beat those athletes who were hired specially for the job?
With this question in mind, the reporters asked Master Liang, "Mr. Liang, why did you let the anchor participate in the competition for you?"

"You know, the other contestants on the same stage in this competition are all..."

"Cough cough..."

Before the reporters present could ask their questions clearly, Master Liang suddenly coughed twice and glanced at Lin Nan.

It seemed that he interrupted the reporter intentionally to avoid making Lin Nan unnecessarily nervous.

"Friends from the media, it's getting late."

"Before the game, I have to choose numbers and warm up, which takes some time."

The intention behind this statement was quite obvious.

Seeing that they wanted to leave, the reporters wanted to try to persuade them to leave and ask some more questions.

However, Master Liang had already said to Lin Nan: "My friend, let's go to the venue first and make preparations in advance."

Following Master Liang's words, Lin Nan nodded naturally.

He took Wang Chengyu and the other person with him and headed towards the stadium with Master Liang.

At the same time, Lin Nan had already discovered it.

Next to Master Liang, there was a young man who would glance at him from time to time.

"Hey, Mr. Liang? Mu Nan...can you say a few more words?"

The reporters present continued to ask questions, but when they saw that the reporters ignored them and had walked away, they gave up in disappointment.

Then he looked at the time and prepared to take his equipment to the shooting competition venue for an interview.

However, these reporters also chatted while packing up their equipment.

"Speaking of which, I don't know what these investors are thinking now."

"Even the folk custom of archery at temple fairs, which is used to pray for blessings, has become more explosive."

"Huh, isn't it?"

The older reporter next to him responded:

"I remember a few years ago, when I interviewed archery at a temple fair, it was simply meant to exorcise evil spirits."

"Also, the slingshots used at the time would first coat the projectile with a layer of cinnabar powder."

"When the bullet hits the bull's eye, the cinnabar powder on it spreads out, just like a red flower blooming!"

At this point, the older reporter seemed to be lost in reminiscence.

After sighing for a while, he heaved a long sigh and said:
"Well, the only thing left at the shooting range of this temple fair is some folk performance..."

"Isn't that the only item that has a slingshot?"

……

On the other side, under the leadership of Master Liang, several people walked towards the venue where the shooting competition was held.

"Master Liang, who is this?"

Lin Nan noticed the young man following Master Liang and asked.

"Oh, he is my apprentice, just call him Xiaozheng."

After a brief acquaintance, Lin Nan discovered that the other person was looking at him with something strange in his eyes.

Moreover, he seemed to be very concerned about the slingshot slung around his waist.

But he didn't think much about it and soon arrived at the preparation area for the shooting competition.

Many contestants have already arrived in this open-air rest area.

There are staff on site responsible for inspection, and the other participants are cooperating.

Looking at the people in front of him, Lin Nan's gaze froze.

It was because he found that the other contestants were not only wearing neat sportswear.

They also carry professional compound bows!

“Hiss…Brother Nan, are they here to participate in the competition as well?

“The bows these people carry seem to be quite professional!”

"And the clothes he wore were very formal, he didn't look like an amateur..."

"We're going to compete with them later?"

Lin Nan had already discovered this without Wang Chengyu's reminder.

At this time, the staff in charge of the on-site inspection discovered Lin Nan and others, so they walked towards them.

When they saw Master Liang, the staff on site first greeted him with a respectful attitude.

Seeing this, Lin Nan was about to take off the slingshot from his waist and show it to the other party for inspection.

The result was somewhat unexpected. The staff member just took a glance and gave up.

For other contestants, the archery equipment they carried was checked very carefully.

But when it comes to myself, it seems like there is no need to check at all.

But on second thought, it's no wonder.

After all, their bows are modern products.

At least we can check whether the assembled firing devices are of uniform specifications.

And his golden bow and silver bullets were all handmade by Master Liang.

There is no way to hide the technological prowess at all.

Therefore, the staff member just took a look and waved his hand with a smile:
"Okay, here are your license plates."

As he spoke, the staff member handed over a number plate with a '9' written in black letters on a white background.

After taking the license plate, Lin Nan glanced ahead.

I found nine position markers painted on the grass of the empty sports field not far away.

A hundred meters away, the target to be shot has been fixed.

After all this was done, Master Liang also spoke up:

"My dear friend, thank you for your hard work this time."

"Just keep a calm mind. As for the ranking...it doesn't matter if you can't get it."

Hearing what Master Liang said, Lin Nan clearly felt a hint of helplessness in his tone. It seemed that the gap in equipment made him dare not have any expectations.

"I understand." Lin Nan nodded with a smile, but he didn't care. After all, the main purpose of coming here was not to compete.

After obtaining the consent of the on-site staff, he took Wang Chengyu and the other person to the competition venue first.

Standing at the ninth position, Wang Chengyu and the other person began to set up the live broadcast equipment on the side.

It's not complicated at all, just a stand with a mobile phone on it.

Adjust the angle enough to capture the entire shooting scene.

As for Lin Nan, after this period of debugging.

The temple fair outside is gradually becoming lively. …

At this time, there are more vendors coming to the temple fair and tourists are coming in an endless stream.

Right at the entrance to the temple fair, a group of college students gathered, waiting for the others.

The leader was the squad leader Li Zewen who had just arrived.

"This year's temple fair is really lively~"

"I just saw that there seemed to be a TV station interviewing inside."

"Of course there are. There are several interview cars parked on the side of the road!"

"I heard there's a shooting competition going on there!"

As the students talked about it, they were eager to visit the temple fair.

Seeing that the monitor seemed to have to wait for others to arrive, someone couldn't wait any longer and suggested:

"Squad leader, this person is almost here, right?"

"It's so boring to wait here~ The temple fair is so lively, why don't we go in and take a look first?"

"Yeah, let's go in and play first~"

Seeing someone make the suggestion, several girls in the class also responded.

However, squad leader Li Zewen looked at his phone, glanced at the time, and couldn't help but muttered:
"Why haven't you come yet... I should have arranged the gathering in advance."

While waiting, Li Zewen made up an excuse and responded:
"Wait a little longer. There are so many people in this temple fair. If we go in first, we might get lost and won't be able to find them."

Just then, a taxi slowly drove over.

As the car door opened, three girls got out of the car.

She is dressed in a youthful and beautiful outfit, showing off her good figure.

It was Wang Yue and several people from her dormitory.

Seeing the queue waiting at the entrance, several people hurried over, and Wang Yue apologized to the students with full apology:

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

At this moment, the other boys in the class felt their eyes brighten.

Wang Yue looked particularly beautiful today, with delicate light makeup on her face.

Even the girls in the same class couldn't help but take a second look.

"Ahem, it's okay."

"It takes a little longer for girls to put on makeup, and everyone can understand that."

Li Zewen pretended to look at his phone again and said, "Well, almost everyone has arrived. We won't wait for anyone who comes later."

"Let's go in first."

As Li Zewen finished speaking, the students happily walked towards the entrance of the temple fair.

Wang Yue walked silently at the end of the team and looked around.

He immediately took out his phone, took a photo, and sent a message to Lin Nan:

"Are you guys here?"

But at this time, Lin Nan was preparing for debugging on the field and had no time to read the news.

After waiting for a while, Wang Yue was a little disappointed when she didn't get a reply.

"What are you looking at?"

At this time, Li Zewen also walked closer and asked Wang Yue.

"nothing……"

Wang Yue was in a bad mood, just looking at her phone, and responded without even raising her head.

Seeing that she was somewhat uninterested and absent-minded, Li Zewen also wanted to seize the opportunity, so he found an excuse and said:
"I heard there's a shooting competition going on there. It's quite lively. How about going over to take a look?"

"Contest?!"

Before Wang Yue could speak, Liu Yan at the side spoke up with an expectant look.

"Great, great! With so many people here today, it must be lively!"

"We're going together as a class, right? Don't let us get separated. I'll go talk to them right away!"

Having said that, Liu Yan hurriedly walked to the front of her classmates and started to organize everyone.

"Hey, everyone, don't walk around..."

"There's a competition at the temple fair, and the monitor wants us to go watch it together~"

"..."

Suddenly, Li Zewen's face fell, as if he had eaten a fly.

How could he call on everyone to join together?
It was obvious that he was looking for an excuse to take Wang Yue away alone!
But with Liu Yan's organization, the classmates all looked at him.

Li Zewen had no choice but to take a few deep breaths and said with a fake smile:
"Yes, let's go together."

"After all, there are many people at the temple fair, and safety is the most important thing."

After taking another look at Wang Yue who was still staring at his phone, he had no choice but to give up and go back to the front to lead the team, preparing to go to the shooting range.

……

As time goes by, the shooting competition is about to begin.

Many tourists who come to the temple fair know that this is one of the main viewing programs of the temple fair, so they inevitably come and gather at the entrance of the stadium, wanting to go in and watch the game.

Soon, a long queue formed at the entrance to the stadium's stands.

Li Zewen and a group of students had already arrived and lined up at the back.

After all, college students are really good at standing in line.

During holidays, whether it is a scenic spot or a food street.

No matter what team he is in or what he wants to do.

Anyway, whenever you see a lot of people, just queue up!
Looking at the grand scene of the audience queuing up to enter the venue, they firmly believe that this game will be absolutely exciting!
"Look! There are so many people queuing up!"

"This game is going to be great! Fortunately we are not too late~"

Liu Yan was talking in the team with a group of girls.

One of Li Zewen's followers said sarcastically because of Liu Yan's previous incident:
"Have you ever seen a shooting match before?"

"Don't try to join in the fun when you don't even know the rules..."

"Eh?" Liu Yan was also careless. She didn't hear the thorn in the other person's words at all. Instead, her eyes lit up. She took out her phone and opened the search engine and said, "Oh, yeah... You really reminded me. I'll go search it now!"

Seeing Liu Yan's look, the follower was speechless for a moment and could only raise his hand and make a 6 gesture.

The other students in the queue were curiously observing their surroundings and actually found some strange things.

There were only a few people in front of them, and there was a group of girls holding banners and light boards.

And the clothes they wear are not much different.

It looks like... some star-chasing fans?

Seeing this, the students around couldn't help but become curious.

"Eh? Why are there still fans here?"

"Could it be possible... that some celebrity is coming to today's game?"

Upon hearing this, the girls in the class' eyes lit up. They couldn't help but get excited at the thought of possibly running into a celebrity.

One by one, they turned into Sherlock Holmes and began to observe the group of fans.

And, I want to find clues from them.

The banners carried by these fans revealed some images as they moved, vaguely showing a man with his arms crossed over his chest.

There is a line of large characters on it, and you can vaguely make out the name: 'Park Jun-hyun'.

"Hey, I see the name written on it!"

"It seems his name is Park something... Go search for him!"

Before he finished speaking, the group of female college students started typing quickly and searching on the website.

However, after finding out who the real owner was, my original expectations were dashed like a bucket of cold water.

The entry that was searched out was about a man with triangular eyes and thick lips.

After clicking in and reading the introduction, Liu Yan said disappointedly:

"Park Jun-hyun... a retired shooting athlete from South Korea?"

"Ah~ That's it?? I thought it was some celebrity!"
