Fox in the Penalty Area

“ @Everyone, before going to bed, sort out all today’s shooting materials and clear the memory card.”

Cheng Guansheng glanced at the notification in the WeChat group on his phone, but did not pick up the phone to reply.

No need to remind you, a qualified photographer knows what to do.

After a day of shooting, when he returned to the hotel, the first thing he did was to import all the shooting materials in the memory card into the hard drive.

Now he has directed all the material.

However, he did not delete all the files in the memory card, but began to check the imported materials on the hard drive one by one for any problems.

This is a habit he developed at work.

It seems that you copied and pasted some files successfully, but it is very likely that you will find that the file is damaged when you open it. If you don't keep the original files, you're going to have big problems.

That's why he never uses the cut function.

Click on each video he shot one by one, and then repeatedly drag the progress bar to check whether the video file is damaged.

In this way he quickly checked many of the video clips he had taken.

Then he deftly opens the next clip.

Just as he was about to drag the progress bar, his hand stopped.

Because what appears on the screen is a close-up of the captain's armband.

※※※

"I still feel it's not real..."

Wang Guangwei looked at the captain's armband in his hand and murmured.

"What's untrue, Captain?"

Hu Lai next to him asked in a mean tone.

Wang Guangwei rolled his eyes at him, but still said seriously: "Why does Team Yao think I can be the captain of this team?"

"Aren't you also the captain in Flash Star?" Hu Lai asked.

"That's different..." Wang Guangwei shook his head.

"What's the difference? It's better than me being the captain. Can you imagine me being the captain?" Hu Lai asked Wang Guangwei, pointing at himself.

Wang Guangwei raised his head and glanced at him, then shook his head: "I can't imagine it."

"Yeah, I can't imagine it either." Hu Lai spread his hands. "But everyone thinks that you are born to be the captain... weren't you also the captain in high school?"

"Are you going any further? I was still the captain in elementary school!"

"Wouldn't that be better? It's a fine tradition! Or,

Do you think you can't control the situation? "

Wang Guangwei said nothing, but Hu Lai continued: "What can't be suppressed? Show off your momentum from elementary school to high school and then to become the captain of a professional team!"

"Climb, crawl, crawl!" Wang Guangwei waved his hand as if to shoo away flies.

Then he looked down at the captain's armband in his hand.

The camera gradually moved up, capturing his bowed profile in a close-up.

The video finally ends with this scene.

"Huh? When did this happen?"

Yan Xiong, another photographer who was in the same room as Cheng Guansheng, had already gotten close to him at some point.

he asked curiously after watching the video.

"On the way from the hotel to the training ground today." Cheng Guansheng replied.

"No wonder..." Yan Xiong patted his forehead. "I went to the training ground in advance to set up the machine."

Then he sighed with emotion: "I really didn't expect that Wang Guangwei would doubt whether he could be the captain of the national football team. When the news said that he succeeded Yao Huasheng as the captain, everyone thought it was natural and normal."

"The fans' thoughts are definitely different from the players' thoughts. This is the meaning of our documentary." Cheng Guansheng said.

The chief director of the documentary about the Chinese team's World Cup campaign did not assign any specific tasks to the photographers who followed the team. They were given a very high degree of freedom.

As long as they think it's worth recording, they will turn their cameras on it.

In Cheng Guansheng's opinion, this scene deserves to be recorded:

The new captain of the Chinese national team is actually not as unwavering in his responsibilities as everyone imagined.

He also had doubts about himself when he took over the captain's armband.

Cheng Guansheng hopes to let fans understand what kind of people the Chinese national team players are through his own lens.

It is definitely not like what is said in the news, as if shouting a few slogans can bring glory to the country with full health and full health.

These players, who are regarded as national heroes by everyone, will also have moments of hesitation and nervousness.

There are many more of these video clips on Cheng Guansheng's hard drive.

He didn't know how much the director of the final documentary would use. He was just a photographer, just like his eyes, faithfully recording what he saw.

Yan Xiong gave him a thumbs up: "You have a very unique vision. Unlike me, I can only take videos of their training..."

He showed Cheng Guansheng the material he had taken.

In the video, the Chinese team players are training to grab the circle.

In a small space, there are five Chinese players passing each other outside the circle, while two Chinese players holding white towels are responsible for grabbing the ball inside the circle.

Zhang Qinghuan, who was outside the circle, faced the rushing Hu Lai. The talented man was so bold that he even chose to pass the football between Hu Lai's legs.

Hu Lai was caught off guard and the football passed through his crotch.

He just clamped his legs reflexively, and the way he held a white towel made his posture particularly "charming"...

This scene made the teammates who were training together burst into laughter.

Chen Xingyi also imitated Hu Lai's leg-crossing action.

It made everyone on the training ground burst into laughter.

"This is pretty good." Cheng Guansheng watched the video with a smile throughout.

"What's so good about this? It's just fun..." Yan Xiong said.

"Joy is the biggest highlight. Do you still remember that four years ago, the Chinese team participated in the World Cup for the first time, and there was news of intra-team conflicts before the opening?"

When asked by Cheng Guansheng, Yan Xiong was stunned for a moment and then remembered:

"You mean the time between Jiang Wanqing and Gao Chen?"

When the 202 National Team went to the United States for training, Jiang Wanqing and Gao Chen had a conflict because of excessive movements during training.

This matter was only exposed by the news media after the Chinese team played three World Cup group matches.

At that time, the national team covered up the negative news very tightly.

In fact, everyone can understand it. After all, if news of internal conflicts within the team comes out before the first game, what will happen...it will have a great impact on the Chinese team's preparations.

Cheng Guansheng nodded and said: "Yes. From that news, you can see how nervous everyone was at that time. But look at it now."

He pointed to the frozen video image.

"Everyone is laughing. This shows that they are all relaxed. Four years have passed, from nervousness to relaxation, from conflict to joking. This shows that our national football team is becoming more and more mature."

After listening to Cheng Guansheng's words, Yan Xiong stared at the picture he had taken in trance.

In fact, he didn't think much about it at all when he was taking the photo. He just thought it was fun to see everyone making fun and joking together...

Now that Cheng Guansheng said this, he realized that this was really the case.

The filming team started to join the Chinese team when they set off from Lingnan and followed the team.

At least during the time they were filming, they could clearly feel the happy atmosphere within the Chinese team.

And this kind of lightheartedness is not performed in front of the camera.

"Hey, you said that. I am looking forward to the performance of the national football team in this World Cup more and more!"

"Everyone is looking forward to it." Cheng Guansheng smiled.

"... Yesterday afternoon local time in Madrid, Spain, the Chinese team ended their last official warm-up match before the start of the World Cup. The opponent in this game was the Welsh team that did not make it to the World Cup. And at home, it competed with the United States. The team's warm-up match was different. This time Dillon did not make any major changes to the main lineup. He ranked the strongest lineup of 352...

"The Chinese team also performed very well in the game and did not disappoint. They finally defeated Wales with a score of 3:0. Hu Lai, Zhou Zijing and Xia Xiaoyu contributed to the team respectively. After taking a three-goal lead, Dillon Substitution adjustments began, and he replaced the main attacking lineup. The Chinese team's defense was tested, but they finally withstood the pressure of Wales' counterattack and tried to keep the goal intact...

"After this game, there are only three days until the opening of the World Cup, and only seven days until the Chinese team's debut in this World Cup. During these seven days, the Chinese team will only conduct internal training matches, and We will no longer play warm-up matches with other teams. During this period, the most important thing is not tactical drills, but keeping the players healthy and not injured..."

"Opponent dynamics: The Spanish national team also played the last warm-up match before the start of the World Cup. They played against Costa Rica in Group E. Although Juan Ramirez still cannot return, the defending champion without Ramirez Showing their super strength, they scored six goals in the game, and in the end, Costa Rica ranked only four places lower than the Chinese team in the FIFA rankings...

"Such an excellent form for the defending champions is obviously not good news for the Chinese team. Spain's coach Kily Borja seems to have drawn inspiration from the Champions League finals between Madrid Pirates and Catalonia, missing Ramires. They focused on offense, and while conceding two goals, they scored six goals. Use more goals to make up for the deficiencies in defense... This is a situation that should attract the attention of the Chinese team. In the first game In the group stage, the Chinese team’s defense will definitely be under tremendous pressure!”
