390 The War Between the Ivy League Schools
Qin Guan was relieved. During the filming of a movie, he was the first real lead actor, and it was his first time to try the shooting of an art film. At the same time, he also learned a lot.
How to cooperate with the director's wishes, and truly express yourself unscrupulously, this is a more unrestrained and free performance atmosphere than in China.
In this play, Gus did not interfere with Qin Guan's performance. The script is here, the actors are here, the people I believe in are here, and the team behind them is here.
Because everyone believed in him, because it was written in his resume that he was an actor.
The red maple leaves fell with the wind, as if bringing the smell of maple frosting. Qin Guan groped for his slightly growing sideburns, and walked towards him under the watchful eyes of a group of big men who still did not forget to wave their hands at him when they were far away. The newest car.
In the red leaf forest on the side of the street, Alex's parents who came to pick him up after finishing the filming were carefully packing the bags for their favorite child to go home.
This blond boy, with a little bit of admiration and obsession, has been watching the blue frame leave the community and disappear into the street.
"Jimmy baby, it's time for us to go home..."
"Oh, here we come..." The little boy here didn't know how much influence the person in the play he occasionally took part in out of interest would have on his future choice of path.
Qin Guan, who returned to campus, was finally able to have a buffer during the intense work period, and enjoy the carefree life that belongs to students.
But Joseph, who was on the opposite side of the apartment, was always talking about the Ivy League football league, but it was about to start, which made Qin Guan, who just wanted to sleep at home, bigger than two.
To talk about the football game of the Ivy League schools, Columbia University can be regarded as the originator of their college leagues.
In 1876, Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Columbia formed the first college football league in the United States.
Immediately afterwards, Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth and Pennsylvania, the other four northeastern United States, joined the league, forming the eight strongest college teams in football at that time.
After that, colleges and universities all over the world imitated one after another, and now there are 60 rugby leagues belonging to different places.
In fact, don’t look at how bad Columbia University’s football game is now, even the rotten tomatoes on the roadside can come over and laugh at it, at least I’m still a tomato, and the other party doesn’t even count as wool.
As early as the early 1900s, the Ivy League colleges and universities at that time did not abolish sports scholarships, nor did they vigorously weaken the trend of sports in schools.
At this time, the football teams of these eight schools can be regarded as the strongest teams in the United States.
At that time, in the national college football game, the championship would always come from the Ivy League. After all, the Ivy League got its name because of football.
However, with the operation of the entire school and the development of American society, these eight top prestigious schools found that their way of operation has deviated from the main goal of the school, which is elite education.
The sports scholarship that advocates the effect of sports stars too much has not brought practical effects to the development of its own school, but has made the academic atmosphere of the school much indifferent.
Ever since, everyone began to reflect, what is the purpose of students going to college?
And these eight schools finally made very sensible reforms, abolished sports scholarships, and tilted all resources to academic atmosphere and research.
Sure enough, with the advancement of history, the Ivy League no longer represents sports leagues, but represents a kind of elite schools. When it comes to mentioning it, everyone mentions celebrities from all aspects of these schools, and no one goes there anymore. Follow sports.
Of course, after a hundred years of inheritance, the game is the tradition of these schools after all, and now the rugby league between them has become more of a gimmick, a carnival.
On this day, the alumni who have already left school will return to school one after another. They will drink hot tea and coffee outside the rugby field with friends they haven’t seen for many years, and put on school uniforms together to savor the lost college time.
Before and after the rugby game, it is also the best time for the school to make a fortune. The donations and generosity of those alumni are also so natural and in line with the timing.
Therefore, it is conceivable what kind of feast it will be when the Ivy League starts in Columbia University.
At this time, Qin Guan and Cong Nianwei regretted listening to Joseph's fooling, saying that this is just the simplest game, so they should cheer on the sidelines.
The person whose feelings are now being surrounded by a group of people like a sandwich in the stands is not Joseph who is enjoying the cheers of the crowd below.
Regardless of the football level of Columbia University, this player's outfit is very beautiful. The white protective clothing and the bright silver helmet add a bit of momentum to the tall athlete.
Selena, who was invited by Qin Guan to help, and a group of cheerleaders, dressed in traditional Columbia University costumes, cheered and jumped outside the green field.
The opponent was Harvard University, who was tall and tall. Of course, there was also a friend Qin Guan knew very well, and that was the only one in the group of five in the cram school who did not choose New York. The key.
Sure enough, his love for sports and his sturdy physique naturally made him join the school's rugby team.
Being the only Chinese player in the two teams is enough to make the international students outside the court feel proud.
The two pairs of players are preparing on the sidelines, and Columbia University, which is the home court advantage, naturally accounts for more than half of the audience.
But Harvard, who is playing away, has his incomparable cohesion. Harvard people all over New York would rather not go to work today, and wear Harvard's most traditional school uniforms and T-shirts to cheer for their alma mater.
John on the sidelines beckoned in Qin Guan's direction, called him to the corridor of the auditorium, and mysteriously handed Qin Guan a long-sleeved T-shirt.
When Qin Guan unfolded the t-shirt, it turned out to be a shirt with Harvard's school emblem on it, and there was an obvious sign of cheering for it.
"Qin Guan, put on your clothes and do me a favor."
"Hey, that's not right. These are the clothes of the other party's school. You let me dress like this. Isn't it just waiting to be beaten?"
John turned his head, bared his shiny white teeth, and said proudly, "Don't worry, I won't cheat you."
