Jay Fox ran towards the editor’s room, his footsteps slipped on the ground, many people greeted him along the way, but Jay’s footsteps did not mean to brake at all, and he didn’t even have time to wave his hand. Just continued to run, just like a tornado rushed into the editor’s room, saw a figure head-on, quickly braked quickly, almost hit the other side.

“Jay! You’re crazy!” Emily-Pulver didn’t anticipate such a flying accident, a brake was not timely, and although it didn’t hit, the books in his hand fell all over the floor. Yes, this made Emily speechless for a while, squatting down to pick up the book, but also complained and ridiculously said, “Don’t rampage, we are just the school newspaper here, not the” Los Angeles Times “, there is no news to race against time. . “

Jay squatted down to help quickly, and he smiled, “Emily, I’m sorry, sorry, it was entirely my fault.” Jay quickly packed up the things, but did not rush to pass the books over, but asked ,”Do you have time now?”

Emily reached out and tried to get her books back, but when she saw Jay’s flattering smile, she immediately asked alertly, “What’s wrong? I’m going to rush over to class. If something happens, I will wait until I come back; I will come back in the afternoon to typeset Yes, in the editing room all afternoon. “

“I’ll accompany you in the past.” Jay holding the book, took the lead in the front, said with a smile. Emily narrowed her eyes and looked at Jay. After all, she didn’t say much. She walked over quickly, and Jay kept up, “I want to write an article.”

“Then write.” Emily said simply, she is the editor of the school newspaper and a senior student in journalism. In the school newspaper, not all members are in the journalism department, but it is undeniable that journalism students dominate the majority, and Jay is also one of them. “After writing it, get it at the manuscript meeting. Everyone discusses it. Didn’t you say last week that when the new semester begins, you have something to be busy, don’t you plan to write a manuscript for the time being?”

“Special case, this time is a special case.” Jay quickly explained, “I was thinking, this manuscript, I rushed out before afternoon, please be sure to send this manuscript to the first school newspaper of the new semester. Today is the day to close the manuscript. He has no time to meet slowly or wait slowly. He must seize the time, and finding Emily is the most direct way.

“Are you crazy?” Emily made a grimace and said she was speechless. But Emily is also a news person. She naturally knows the timeliness of the news, so she asks, “Look, what the **** is the news that makes you so excited.”

“The first official Chinese-American player in the history of the Brown Bears!” Jay didn’t sell it, and he said it directly, which made Emily’s footsteps stop.

The United States is an immigrant country, and races from all over the world form the basis of the entire country, but the integration between races is always a problem, and species / ethnicity / discrimination / discrimination are endless. Even in 2010, whites discriminate against blacks. Blacks discriminate against Latinos, Asians, and even Jews and Arabs. These discriminatory chains always exist and permeate all aspects of life.

This is especially true in sports arenas. As early as the 1920s, black people appeared on the professional football field, and the professional baseball field also broke the black ethnic barrier in the 1940s, but nearly a century later, the NFL field has never appeared The figure of Asian players, let alone Chinese.

Some people say that this is the gap of physical talent, but the fact? In real life, in basketball, baseball, and even the ice hockey arena, there have been the appearance of Chinese players, not to mention the football arena. At the moment, Yao / Ming is still a beloved basketball superstar. However, in the football field, Chinese players are still blank. To be precise, Asian players are innocent. Is it just because of physical talent? I’m afraid not.

Not only in professional leagues, but even in college leagues, Asian players are rare and rare. At least in Emily’s memory, there has not been an Asian player in the history of the Brown Bears.

On the road of confronting racial integration, cultural integration, and pluralistic development, California has always been a top student in the United States, walking in front of other states. As one of the most famous universities in California, the Brown Bears can become the first player with Chinese-American players. This is definitely a very solid step on the road to multicultural integration, and it can even be said to be one of the best news of the year!

As Lu Ke ’s roommate, after Jay knew the news for the first time, his first reaction was to be happy for his friends. He knew more clearly than anyone how much effort Lu Ke had put in. The second reaction was to advertise. The attention and attention caused by this news was really clear to Jay, but more importantly, if Lu Ke could use this as a starting point and go further into the draft, then absolutely It’s news that shakes the whole country!

As for the professional league … that is a distant future, a distant goal, Jay is not so crazy for the time being. But just thinking about it in my mind would not make my blood boil. Jay knows the value of this news better than anyone else. He hopes to see it first, and before the start of the new season.

So, he blocked Emily all the way and tried to grab the page before the deadline. From now on, he seems to have succeeded. In just one sentence, he attracted Emily ’s attention, her pupils began to dilate, and a look of excitement emerged, and she could n’t even stop her footsteps and could n’t wait to ask Here, “main force?”

Jay’s expression suddenly froze, and then he said with a smile, “Don’t be so anxious, step by step, you can’t eat it as a big fat person.”

“Substitute?” Emily’s expression suddenly became embarrassed.

Jay hurriedly said, “Hey, Emily, at least this is an important step forward. No one foresaw the future ending on the path of making history, was it? It was like Martin-Luther King of that year. Lurher-King) … “

Emily rolled her eyes and took the step again. “God, wouldn’t you be serious? Really equate this Chinese kid with Dr. King?” Jay shrugged, revealing his irrelevance. With a smile, Emily had to take a deep breath. “Jay, you know, if it ’s just a substitute, it ’s not worth reporting at all. There are nearly sixty players on the team, and less than half of them can play. If you do n’t get any attention at all, there is naturally no value in reporting. “

“Please, Emily. You should know clearly how important this little step is!” Jay bitterly advised, “I know, the bench may not have the chance to play at all, maybe forever. Sitting on the cold bench, but think about ocean cookies, yes, ocean cookies, no one was optimistic about him, but he created a miracle. All we need is to believe a little miracle. “

Ocean Biscuit is a horse race. In the era of the Great Depression in the United States, it was a horse race without any talents. It was short, with small legs and stubborn legs, and had a stubborn and stubborn character. Almost everyone thinks it can’t be a real horse race, either to cultivate land or to destroy humanely.

But after the vicissitudes and hardships, some people finally discovered his talent and dug it out. Later, in the face of adversity, Ocean Biscuits achieved impossible victories over and over again. It became the era of the Great Depression, invigorated the existence of the entire American spirit, and led the people out of despair.

“Martin Luther King first, then Ocean Cookies?” Emily looked at Jay silently and couldn’t help laughing. She shook her head gently. “I just told you that no one would want to listen to a substitute. Story. The bench will not even play. Even if it is published, it will not attract any attention. “

Jay didn’t speak, but clenched his hands into fists, making a pleading look.

Emily stopped again and sighed a long way. “Five hundred words, at most five hundred words.” Even if it was agreed, Jay shouted with cheers immediately, and Emily continued, “Afternoon Hand it in by three o’clock. I will try to arrange a layout. But I reminded you that no one will care. I’m afraid even the Chinese students will not care. You know they don’t watch rugby. “

Jay nodded indifferently, just thinking that he could finally write an article for Lu Ke, he felt contented.

Emily smiled dumbly. “Can I return my book now? I don’t think you need to be a hostage.” Jay quickly handed the book to Emily, “See you in the afternoon, thank you, Amy Li! Did you know? You look so beautiful today! “While talking, he stepped back, and finally Jay turned around and started cheering.

Emily sorted out the books in her arms a little, and said in a loud voice, “Three o’clock in the afternoon, no time is out of date!” But Jay had already cheered and drifted away, and did not know if he heard it, Emily Helplessly shook his head, ready to leave. But after two steps, I realized: Who? Which player is it? She actually forgot to ask for the name!

With a bitter smile, Emily didn’t think about it any longer, and quickly trot towards the classroom.

In the fall semester of 2010, the first edition of the University of California, Los Angeles newspaper published such a message:

Chinese student Lu Ke became an official player of the Brown Bears, and entered the big game list. This is the first Chinese player to appear on the official list of rugby in the history of school teams-or the first Asian player to achieve such a feat Not only has he written a lot of color on the history of rugby games, but it has also taken an important step on the history of eliminating apartheid. This is very important for the school and for the team.

The NCAA’s new season is about to begin. As the highly anticipated Brown Bears this year, it broke the heavy news first. This is also the first time Lu Ke has appeared in the newspaper in a typeface situation. 196.
