Silence—
The entire internet,
Dead silent!
The previously heated discussions,
As if the server had exploded,
Vanished!
Ten million mansion!
Countless luxury cars!
Investments everywhere!
Billionaire heir!
Investing in the team!
Donating to the Chinese team!
…
Every word,
Every phrase,
Every sentence,
Was beyond,
The expectations of everyone behind the screens!
This…
This…
This Lin Feng is actually this kind of existence?
This Lin Feng is actually this rich?
Shock!
Surprise!
Horror!
All sorts of emotions,
Surged into their hearts in an instant!
So much so that,
The previous ridicule, questioning, and insults,
Also disappeared!
And,
Some were secretly thinking in their hearts:
“Is someone as rich as him someone I can scold?”
However,
This silence,
Did not last long,
Soon,
It erupted,
Into even more intense discussions:
“No! What does it matter if he’s rich! This is the Olympics, a stage for national glory! He hasn’t participated in any sports events, what right does he have to compete? Relying on money? What, is he going to bribe the judges?”
“Exactly! Didn’t you see the blogger’s exposé? This Lin Feng hasn’t participated in any sports events, he’s just a mascot, a rich mascot at that!”
“Heh! In my opinion, maybe he got his place on the team by bribing some people!”
“That’s right! How else could a sports novice get onto this stage? There’s something fishy! Definitely something fishy!”
“Money? Money can buy anything? Has the stench of money even swept over the Olympics, which has always been known for its fairness and justice?”
“Ridiculous! You can win glory for the country with a few measly bucks? This Lin Feng, he’s a disgrace to the country!”
“Funny! It’s really too funny!!!”
…
This is the internet,
Even if it wasn’t Lin Feng,
Even if it was a world champion,
There would be a backlash!
Let alone…
These keyboard warriors,
They have an inherent hatred for the rich!
Now,
In their eyes,
The entire Chinese badminton team,
The entire Chinese sports team,
Have become a dark force!
Just like,
The team that Tie Zi once led!
Soon,
The entire screen,
Was filled with nothing but insults,
And insults:
“The Chinese badminton team is desperate! Now they’re even taking black money!”
“Lin Feng! Zero score! Don’t get beaten 21 to 0 when you get on the court!”
“Darkness! The current sports world is also shrouded in darkness!”
“It makes me angry, the Chinese badminton team, you’ve brought shame to the country!”
“What’s wrong with being rich! What’s wrong with the rich! Can the rich just ignore national honor?”
“Lin Feng! If you have a conscience, please withdraw from the competition, don’t bring shame to our country!”
“That’s right! I absolutely oppose Lin Feng, Lin Feng, please withdraw from the competition!”
“Same here, Lin Feng, hurry and withdraw!”
“Get a move on, withdraw, you hear me!”
“Yes, yes, yes, don’t go on the court and make a fool of yourself, hurry and withdraw!”
…
At first,
It was only a few comments,
But later,
Almost the entire screen was filled with two big characters:
“Withdraw!”
“Withdraw!”
“Withdraw!!!”
…
Not only that,
In less than an hour,
The General Administration of Sport of China’s,
Online complaint channel,
Also collapsed!
And all these tens of thousands of complaints and reports,
Were all about one thing,
That is:
The Chinese badminton team’s player list is a sham!
Lin Feng must be replaced!!!
And these public opinions and reports,
Also attracted the attention of the General Administration of Sport of China.
Soon—
A call from the highest level of the General Administration of Sport,
Was placed on Zhang Jun’s phone, the head coach of the Chinese badminton team:
“Zhang Jun!”
“What are you doing?”
“Don’t you know that Lin Feng is just here for a show?”
“Don’t you know he hasn’t trained in any sport?”
“Could it be that…”
“You really did something shady like the rumors say?”
…
This voice,
Was very serious!
It sounded,
Unquestionable!
However,
This head of the General Administration of Sport,
Thought,
That Zhang Jun would obediently explain the ins and outs of the matter,
And in response to the netizens’ opinions,
Immediately announce that Lin Feng would no longer be playing,
But unexpectedly,
The latter didn’t do so!
Even though he was the highest level of the General Administration of Sport,
Even though he could dismiss Zhang Jun’s position as head coach with a single word!
The latter didn’t say the words to replace Lin Feng,
Instead…
He just said calmly:
“Wang, the head of the Administration!”
“Please watch a video!”
“After you’ve watched it, everything will be clear!”
…
Actually,
The matter of the Chinese team’s player replacement,
Not only in China,
But also abroad,
Has also had a considerable impact!
Replacing a player with a mascot to compete,
In the eyes of those foreigners,
It’s a big joke:
“Haha! Does China not have any people? A mascot can play in a competition?”
“He hasn’t participated in any sports from a young age, except for being rich, he’s got nothing, how can he compete?”
“Laugh out loud! What are these Chinese people thinking? Are they trying to win gold with money?”
“It seems China is just like that! This Chinese team, I guess they’re going to be crushed by our America!”
“Who says it’s not! In my opinion, even our great 棒球 nation is better than them!”
“Haha! Our 大岛子 empire is going to get second place in the world medals!”
…
There was pride,
There was ridicule,
There was schadenfreude!
Not only these foreigners who went online,
The coaching staff and players of other countries,
Had the same opinion!
This time China,
Is simply ruining itself!
Especially,
As insiders,
They are the ones who know best,
What a multi-talented backup player is!
A vase!
A mascot!
A Barbie doll!
…
Full of disdain!
Full of ridicule!
…
At the same time,
In the 大岛子 sports team’s accommodation area.
Knock, knock, knock!
With a knock on the door,
志田阡阳 opened the door.
“Chi-Yang!”
“Oh, no!”
“Ms. Shida, look, isn’t the Chinese badminton team stupid?”
“They actually let a mascot play in the competition!”
“This is not funny, what is this?”
…
Nishimoto Kenta held up his phone,
Said happily.
In his eyes,
Except for mockery,
It was still mockery!
As he had sworn before,
He would never let China win.
Now seeing China replace the player with Lin Feng,
The joy in his heart,
Cannot be described with words!
At the same time,
He wanted to share this news with 志田阡阳,
To let her know,
That the Chinese team are all fools!
The Chinese team is not as good as the 大岛子 team,
The Chinese players are not as good as him!
Choosing him,
Is better than choosing a Chinese person!
But unexpectedly,
志田阡阳 blocked his social account.
The link was shared,
The response was only a red exclamation point.
There was no other way,
So he could only knock on the door,
To share it in person!
But his actions,
Made 志田阡阳 even more disgusted.
She was so tired last night,
Her legs still hurt so much,
She wanted to have a good rest,
But she was interrupted by this deadbeat,
How could she not be angry!
Looking at Nishimoto Kenta in front of her with a mocking smile,
She wanted to blow up!
But suddenly,
She saw two words on the former’s phone:
Lin Feng!
She subconsciously suppressed her anger,
Immediately snatched the phone,
Then,
She saw the headline of the Japanese media:
《Chinese badminton team makes a foolish move! Can a mascot “Lin Feng” play?》
…
