The speech contest does not force other teachers and students to participate, so except for the participating students, judges, and student union members, most of them are "family groups". Until the speech contest officially started, the attendance rate on the first floor of the auditorium was not one-third.

Within ten minutes before the competition officially started, the judges' attendance increased significantly, and even more said that the teachers arrived at this time, and Principal Zhang Junhui also arrived and sat in the middle of the first row.

On the left side of Zhang Junhui is the vice principal Qiu Shengyun, who is big-eared and rich-faced, and on the right side is the teaching director Tang Pengfei, who is of medium size and bare head. Then the other judges sit on both sides in turn.

"Dear school leaders, teachers, and dear classmates..."

After the judges and teachers all finished their seats, a pure and sweet girl in charge of the student union walked onto the podium, gave a simple opening remark, and then asked the principal to come on stage to speak.

Zhang Junhui did not refuse and stood up. The teachers, led by Vice Principal Qiu Shengyun on the left, all the leaders stood up. Zhang Junhui walked onto the podium and took the microphone from the host.

There was a silence in the auditorium. He looked at the students scattered below the stage, exhaled gently, and said, "Our school holds speech competitions every semester."

“But I don’t necessarily come to attend every time.”

"I'm here to participate this time because I have something else."

"I came to participate this time, not because I was no longer busy, but because I turned down something else."

"The reason is that I think this speech contest is more important."

“Why does it matter?”

Zhang Junhui sighed at the front of the stage, as if he was hesitating for a moment, and then said: "Because the theme of this speech is 'patriotism', this is my suggestion."

"Our school has speech contests every semester, but when there is no anniversary and there is no publicity, it rarely uses this topic directly, but I think it is very necessary."

"I didn't read the previous speech, but I read every student's speech. Many of them gave it very well. I also knew that one of them wrote about his ambition to serve the country during the high school entrance examination and got full marks."

After Zhang Junhui said this, Shen Mo, Wang Ke and others looked at Fang Chang'an.

Fang Chang'an returned the look of "You are so strange" and quickly continued to listen to Zhang Junhui's speech. At the same time, he secretly guessed in his heart whether Zhang Junhui saw his composition first or knew him first.

This order is very important, because if it is the former, it is not important. If it is the latter, it can basically be confirmed that Shen Chengli has a clear change in his attitude towards himself. Otherwise, what is the reason why Zhang Junhui, a principal, read a high school entrance examination essay two years ago when he was a senior high school student. He would never want to learn how to write an essay?

"I won't say anything extra. Next, I will leave the time to the students who are going to give a speech. No matter what the result of today's competition is, I hope that the students who are speaking, the students here, and all the students from our city No. 1 Middle School will love our country from the bottom of our hearts, study hard, and strive to contribute more to the prosperity and strength of the country."

Zhang Junhui handed the microphone to the host, and the judges in the audience took the lead in applauding, so many students who had not yet come to their senses also applauded.

"Thank you for your speech and encouragement, we will definitely keep your advice and teaching in mind, study hard, and serve the country."

After the applause was a little rest, the sweet-looking female host expressed her opinion on behalf of the No. 1 Middle School students in the city, and then said: "Next, we invite the five contestants who have passed the qualifying and entered the finals to give their patriotic keynote speeches respectively, and take a look at their sincere and enthusiastic patriotism."

"The first person to appear was Li Xiangyang from Class 16, Grade 1. His speech title was "Only youthful and ambitions, I create glory with my passion and blood". Please welcome!"

Amid the applause from the audience, Li Xiangyang, who was waiting at the edge of the stage in advance, walked to the podium placed in the middle of the stage with his speech. He was obviously very nervous. Although he was well concealed and calmly walked, when he put down the speech, he felt nervous and hoarse in the first voice.

"Sorry, it's a little nervous to give a speech in front of so many leaders, teachers, and classmates for the first time."

He apologized, then took a breath and began to give his speech. At the same time, a girl in second came quietly to the edge of the stage and waited to come on stage.

The finals require a time of less than fifteen minutes, with a minimum of five minutes. However, usually, most of these speeches are about five to eight minutes, and there are not many people who have the courage to drag them to more than ten minutes.

The first junior to go on stage obviously did not intend to consume the patience and favorability of teachers and students over time. He ended his speech in less than eight minutes.

Everyone applauded again, and then the sweet-looking female host appeared again, expressing her gratitude and encouragement to the singer just now, and announced that the next singer would take the stage.

A boy with a student union sign walked to Fang Chang'an's seat and reminded him to wait at the stage. Fang Chang'an stood up and turned to look at Shen Mo, Wang Ke and others sitting inside.

Shen Mo, Wang Ke, and Liu Bei all whispered: "Come on!"

Song Tang and Mao Shanshan were also encouraging expressions.

As for Li Hao and Ge Shuhui, the boys also expressed encouragement, and this was not important. Fang Changan waved his hand to respond, and then followed the students from the student union to the edge of the stage to wait.

About five or six minutes later, the female host appeared on the stage again in applause and said, "Thank you Fan Tingting for her wonderful speech. The next one is Fang Chang'an, a class 22nd Grade 2. His speech title is "The Times Are Calling", please welcome!"

"Wow!"

The judges and students in the audience all applauded with face. Although the two students in the previous speeches were not long, they were not very surprised. Even the students who came to the speech contest for the first time lost their freshness at this time.

Those who applaud more hard are basically acquaintances.

Song Changxian, who was sitting in the second row, did not applaud very enthusiastically because he was Fang Chang'an's head teacher, so he had to be more stance and be more strict than others.

He patted his palms a few times and stopped, and casually observed the three important leaders sitting in the middle of the first row. This was a habit and action developed over a long period of time, and it was also a good habit that an ambitious adult should have.

He had no psychological expectations before looking at him, but unexpectedly found that the principal Zhang Junhui adjusted his sitting posture. His movement was not big and did not attract attention.

But in Song Changxian's eyes, who had been silently observing for several years, he still vaguely grasped the possible potential changes in Principal Zhang's small movement.

"Principal Zhang seems to be very interested? Or... are looking forward to it?"

Song Changxian was secretly surprised, so he first confirmed Zhang Junhui's actions, feeling that his judgment should be certain, so he turned his attention to Fang Chang'an again, and then he realized that it was a little different.

Fang Chang'an did not bring a speech!

Although the two students just now gave speeches without writing, they all took the speeches just in case. Fang Chang'an was empty-handed when he walked onto the stage.

Even if you end up giving speeches without writing, this confident attitude is undoubtedly a plus.

It was obvious that Song Changxian was not the only one who noticed this, but most of them even noticed earlier than his class teacher. Therefore, when Fang Chang'an walked to the center of the stage, the meticulous discussions at each interval in the audience were obviously louder.

The judges in the first row also shook each other's expressions, and their expressions looked quite satisfied.

Zhang Junhui, who had been serious, also had some smiles on his face, and showed a relatively obvious look of expectation. He put down the pen he had been holding, leaned back slightly on the back of the chair, and took a stance to concentrate on listening.

With eyes fixed in the auditorium, Fang Changan walked to the podium, then picked up the microphone and held it in his hand.

The school does not lack computers, and the auditorium stage also has lights and projectors, but the school does not allow students to make speech PPTs. In addition to the lights on the stage, there is only a red patriotic theme background image projected behind it, which is written in regular script on it:

Yunlong No. 1 Middle School 2007 Autumn Student Speech Competition Final

Fang Changan took the microphone and changed his position, and went to the right side of the stage, keeping a certain distance from the podium. He was tall and his head blocked the word "No. 1 Middle School" in "No. 1 Middle School".

"Dear teacher and dear classmates, good morning everyone."

Fang Changan said hello first and deceived him with a wave of applause. After the applause that was not enthusiastic and even made him feel a little reluctant, he stopped, and then he held the microphone and started his speech:

"We all know that China is a young country, from its official establishment in 1949 to 2007, less than sixty years."

"We all know that China is a country with a long history, one of the four ancient civilizations in the world, and the only ancient country that has been passed down to this day. We have a history of 5,000 years... Students who don't know can go and find my previous singing draft, which is published in the school's literary journal. It is well written and worth a look."

Many people in the audience couldn't help laughing because of this last sentence, and several judges also smiled. After relaxing, several judges noticed that Principal Zhang Junhui was listening attentively and also smiled. So they also put down their pen and learned to listen attentively, as if they were no longer judges, but ordinary listeners who were listening to the lecture.

But they soon discovered that this posture was not necessary.
