Baotou: the politicization of baseball from baseball to politics of

On-bian, the panda is the diff, Fuwa is diff. Well now, looking forward to Ma Ying-jeou, Wu Po-hsiung Louzhe Fuwa take on the giant pandas. But not so easy to set an initial or a small Qiuqiuwanba. Hu remember that next time rebate on the teachers held a table tennis. Fortunately, Wu Po-hsiung did not send a big stick, otherwise next time he could only return a radish. Hu Jintao's visit to Japan to display their "ping pong diplomacy", while Wu Poh-hsiung visited the mainland, of course, to make use of the dog. His popularity in the mainland a baseball terminology - "Baotou." "Baotou" purporting is a mistake that led to deviate from home plate and took over the board can not catch pitches. Wu Po-hsiung said: looking forward to the development of cross-strait relations will all goes well, will not be "Baotou." Using baseball terminology to describe the political, Taiwan's political arena in recent years is the fashion. Baseball is Taiwan people's love, the people of Taiwan, there are baseball. Taiwan's politicians are more or less played baseball when I was small. Wu Po-hsiung of the baseball experience than illustrious Ma Ying-jeou, Taoyuan County, he is low had been baseball championship. Taipei media and the streets can be seen everywhere pitcher Wang Ying-zi Huangran remember when I was small I heard the "enemy Taiwan broadcasting," the announcer Jiaoshengweichuan堪称her Mimizhiyin the precursor. Now I only remember that "beauty snake spies," the two begin with a "Dear compatriots on the mainland……", you hear Jipigeda Dunqi; one is the "Chinese Little League team……" - then, " Enemy Taiwan, "Narita opening word" Chinese Little League teams ", and ignorance, and so I Gao Buqing" Little League "is what stuff. "Imperialism" engage in "big-stick policy", the KMT engage in "Little League policy," it would be Zizuoduoqing because of the compatriots on the mainland do not know of baseball, little league baseball team far later than the Xiaohu Dui effective. Until 2007, only life I first saw a baseball game, and the holy places in the New York Yankee baseball stadium, will see a natural star Wang of Taiwan. Wang Jianmin, the continent sports fans are quite unfamiliar with the name of Taiwan and the "Light of Taiwan" with the same words, the reputation of any non-cineFinance star can match. Last year, "China Times" poll showed that the "Taiwan representative of men" in the selection, beat Wang Jianmin Wang Yung-ching, Taiwan's Kuo-ming, and other big bosses and ranked first. Wang is the only Ma Ying-jeou can叫板the Super Shinaishashou, which is why Ma Ying-jeou also has to play a game "big stick" policy to talk about baseball, Wang talked about pride. But the King almost never show that political stance. Taiwan published an Oliver Chin wrote, "Yao: the United States the most famous Chinese." In the United States, the most famous Chinese actually have two - Yao Ming and Wang Jianmin. Yao in the NBA's status and influence still strongly Wang Jianmin in MLB. To the annual salary, in Yankee Wang (Taiwan translated as "Yankee") was ranked at No. 13 in the teams for the 4 million U.S. dollars, less than Kidd (annual salary of 21.8 million U.S. dollars) one-fifth. Taiwan people in baseball outside of basketball are also keen, Taiwan will be published on Yao's book, but it is difficult to envisage, the mainland will be on Wang to the book. Wang in Taiwan, the ad speak status equivalent to Yao Ming and Liu Xiang in the mainland. But in general, be limited to baseball's popularity in the mainland has yet to the status quo, Wang Jianmin, the advertising revenue it remains difficult and Yao, compared to Liu. Although Wang's words reveal personal charm seems as Yao Ming and Liu Xiang, "Wang" in Taiwan seems to have become a sports go beyond the "miscellaneous school" - inspirational, finance, management…… would like to link him. In the past few days has just published a "game winner: Tuorui the Yankees management" - Tuorui is Yankee coach. It is hard to imagine there will be a "game winners: Rick Adelman's Rockets management." Baseball Dragon in the top sports in Taiwan, and even can be said that the "Taiwan spirit." "As long as there are baseball, there are people in Taiwan, as long as the people of Taiwan, there are baseball," the Taiwan people's obsession with baseball over the extent of the mainland people's love for table tennis. During the Cold War era, "baseball diplomacy" and "ping pong diplomacy" as a example of the politicization of sports. Baseball star has played in the history of "national hero" role - and this is the performing arts can not be played by the star. Taiwan in Japan and the United States under the influence of the development of baseball, and baseball from the 1960s, Taiwan has played a "Bangda foreigners", "swept through the Japan-US" nationalist role. The big stick of a national supreme weapon, a baseball reflects the changes in Taiwan's history, but also reflects the historical paradox. Taiwan's baseball rise and dominate, the last of the 1970s known as "the champion with Buwan", in 1974, has three teams in the United States had "world champion", completing the "triple crown" BR. This happens with its economic takeoff simultaneously. 1965, the Japanese baseball star Sadaharu Oh Chinese to visit Taiwan; 1968, Hongye Little League team beat world champions Japan and Wakayama, greatly Xuanxie Taiwan's nationalist feelings, and almost a "national mobilization" to set off waves baseball . To a contest, the Taiwan island Shouzhe TV and radio, a win over Che sound of firecrackers; team triumph, greeted hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets. Taiwan in the 1960s and 1970s the "spirit of baseball," as if the mainland 1980s, the "team spirit." 1971, the Taiwan Little League team in the giant U.S. Weilianbote against the U.S. team, Xu Jinlong World War Maikelindeng interpretation of the story was completely into the reality version of Bruce Lee movies. Maikelindeng unfortunate because the opponent after scoring a series of crying, unfortunately as the "U.S. imperialism" the symbol of vulnerability, Dingshang a "disgrace, in the history of." Taiwan baseball in the 1980s after the start declining, but there are still several major victories: 1984 Los Angeles Olympic baseball bronze medal matches, the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games (baseball was first included in the official projects) silver medal in 2001 in Taiwan Organized by the 34th "World Cup" baseball bronze medal. In March of this year's Olympic qualifiers, the Chinese Taipei team successfully cut them in the Beijing Olympics goal is to win medals. In need of special note is that basically will not take part in Wang Jianmin. Millions love集于一身baseball in Taiwan, now in fact at the bottom. However, baseball in Taiwan has never been what is not "a sludge rather than with" Aw of. Taiwan's baseball and the dark side of the many negative, especially with the mainland sports soccer great similarities between the mainland. The first is false and Maomingdingti age of scandals, from Hongye, the beginning of string Jinlong Little League, the island's competition also Napster ended March with 410,000 "water", Da Jiaqiu the scandal. In that time, nationalism overrides everything, or even be banned exposure of the scandal. Taiwan's baseball career began in 1990, betting also becoming "professional." 1997, 2001, three soccer gambling scandal in 2005, a heavy blow to Taiwan's professional baseball sport. Originally in 2001 to host the "World Cup" and won the bronze medal after the recovery of Taiwan baseball again, but again in 2005 after the outbreak of soccer gambling scandal, the number of viewers Yijuebuzhen. There has been an increasing obsession with Wang and MLB, the local game warm recession. Taiwan's professional baseball and soccer gambling Jiaqiu boss is a major criminal gangs forces. August 3, 1996, "Brother Elephants team," a gang of underworld players were escorted a hotel in Taichung. Among them, members of Wu-even for the underworld big brother "impolite words," was the first break with rifle butts, now head coach of the Chinese Taipei team in a flood at that time was the presence of guns means of intimidation. August 3, 1997, two underworld detained seven "Tiger Team" players, accused the players "water" mad cause them to lose 30 million Taiwan dollars and foreign aid the United States slapped Gordon, and threatened at gunpoint. Hunfeiposan Gordon, who's not even receive salaries directly escaped back to the United States. At that time, another force more foreign aid-was later recalled the terrorist gangs in Taiwan: "They pull me to the hotel and opened a suitcase, inside the millions of Taiwan dollars. My legs tremble, I said I can not join, I was to his family and Play. " However, the Administration is not doing nothing, as early as 1969, "justice" is involved. For example, in 1969 Hongye Little League legend is not known at the time behind the insider: "Hongye," because of forged instruments and over-age players were secretly punished, principals, coaches and management trio were sentenced to one year in prison, suspended for two years. September 10, 1997, the court found 23 players cooked up absolute impunity, "Hawks Times" almost全军覆没- 20 players was sentenced to 18 months to two and a half years in prison, Shicheng "the darkest Taiwan baseball Day. " Baseball has always affect the progress and the turn of the corruption of the Taiwan society. March this year, progress in full swing the election in Taiwan, coincides with the Chinese Taipei team is eligible to compete for the Olympic Games, political and baseball once again Jieyuan, blue and green are two sides to baseball造势. Taiwan from the "politicization of baseball" to enter the era of "political baseball" era. Politics has become increasingly transparent, entertainment and gossip and more "dog" - politicians like singers at every turn as the fans chanted: "You are the 'stick' the people!" To Taipei that evening, where I went to a friend about "Wu Yun" bar that in Frank Hsieh's "Young reversed headquarters" nearby. I Bianxun but the result is not. Later, I apologize to friends - Frank Hsieh defeated in the original post, and his "young reversed headquarters" deserted, has become a Bossini (Bossini). Politicians such as passing through, but the eternal baseball. From baseball to politics and political baseball, which is Taiwan's historical progress. Taiwan people's "Olympic Dream" is the first baseball dream, the people of Taiwan will definitely push Beijing Wukesong Baseball Field baseball as their holy sites. Taiwan's International Olympic Committee member Wu hoped that by then the 12,000 seats are filled, with fans hope that the mainland for Taiwan's refueling. Wu Po-hsiung's visit, Hu Jintao said to him, "Here is your home…… mainland audience will cheer for you." Taipei circle at the foot of Mount baseball is the Holy Land. From Longtenghuyue look past the baseball field, that Song Meiling Qin made the circular Alexander Hotel, Chiang Ching-kuo's official residence in a round-the shade of…… In the past, they have towards this piece of baseball, had waved It had a Cold War hot rods. But baseball does not belong to political, not a politician, baseball belongs to the people, "Baseball Dream" is the dream of Taiwan
