Reborn on Top of Football

"Xiao Li, are you back?" Li Maocun walked through the corridor of the office, distributing gifts from London, and chatting with colleagues from Xinhua News Agency's Liaoning Branch. This time he was invited by the London branch of Xinhua News Agency to go to London for exchanges.

The reason? Probably it was the good feedback from the last time he invited Wang Ai to be a guest on Xinhuanet's live broadcast room. Not to mention how much Xinhuanet’s traffic surged, mainly because Wang Ai broke a lot of information in the interview, such as photos of his bedroom, such as his “revealing” of celebrities’ mate choice, etc., which have triggered a series of events in Chinese society. sensation.

Especially in the "view of mate selection", Wang Ai accidentally tore off the "painted skin" of many stars. Very taste for the serious values ​​of Xinhua News Agency. In addition, Xiao Li and Li Maocun were the Xinhua News Agency reporters that Wang Ai first contacted, and the friendship is still there, so he was sent this time.

After he arrived in London, he happened to be in time for Chelsea to play against Valencia at home, so under the arrangement of the embassy, ​​he received a ticket for the Stamford Bridge box, right next to the owner Abu box, and was fortunate to watch the entire game. Then, he also watched a Chelsea vs. Tottenham match. It is said that the tickets were provided by his former interviewee Wang Ai.

After two games, he participated in the press conference after the game. Although he did not get a chance to ask questions, he also experienced it personally. Today is April 10th and it is time for Chelsea to go south to Spain. It is said that during the match between Seville and Tottenham, the police violently suppressed the fans of Tottenham. The two rivals in London also had a security exchange.

It's a pity that we can't see all of this. The visit time is limited and funding is limited. Xiao Li must return to China. But he couldn't stop going back to China. He wanted to take advantage of the hot news and quickly sort out the manuscript at the unit. So after hurriedly greeted his colleagues, he went into his office, turned on the computer, and thought about it.

"As an ordinary Chinese, an ordinary media reporter, I am undoubtedly lucky."

After Xiao Li typed a sentence into the computer, he became meditative, without noticing that other colleagues were watching his screen.

"Because of work, I was able to watch the UEFA Champions League game six days ago. Although the opponent is not a giant like Real Madrid, it is also a strong side of the Spanish League. Now, in retrospect, although almost a week has passed, I experienced another time in the middle. The league with Tottenham and the sleepiness after the long flight, I can still recall the excitement at that time."

"Presumably many fans watched that game on TV, but what you don’t know is that the feeling of being there is completely different. As a professional sports reporter, I have also watched the game on TV and wrote articles. I went to the Super League to report on the spot, but none of the shocks and feelings were as profound as this one."

When Li Maocun wrote this, he calmed his mood, took out his pocket, took out a cigarette to light it, took a deep breath and then typed: "First of all, I want to say that if there is a choice, I really don't want to come back. A week in London I received a warm reception from my colleagues in London, I saw many new things, visited Fleet Street, and visited the editorial office of the "Guardian". But it was not the main thing. I watched two wonderful games and heard it with my own ears. , I saw and felt the city’s love and even fanaticism for us as a Chinese. I was also kindly hospitalized by Wang Ai himself. I stayed at his house for two days and shared his expensive food. Although I'm not a teenager anymore, but I actually found the feeling of the Spring Festival outing on June 1st... just for fun!"

"You have seen a lot of praise for Wang Ai in the domestic media, and you have also seen a lot of praise for him by foreign media, but what I want to say is that it is not enough. From my experience in London for a week, the local The fans and the media love him more than our Chinese media reports, not less. I interviewed Terry, Lampard, Drogba, and even Robben in injury at Chelsea, and they were all right Wang Ai praised Wang Ai. After I went home, I calmly thought about it, cut off their friendly expressions to me, and still summarized the views of my teammates on Wang Ai. Simply put: I can trust. The proud Dutchman Robben Tell me: whenever I want to score a goal, I will think of Wiwi first. This is not because we are always together in private, but because he really convinced me with the results."

"At Cobham, at Stamford Bridge, wherever Chelsea fans are, I clearly feel: no matter what impression they have of the Chinese before, they trust, admire and even admire him at least on the pitch. , This is an amazing achievement. London is too big and there are too many teams. I can't say that he conquered the city, but at least in this corner of West London, he really conquered most people."

"For this game in Valencia, he once again completed an amazing hat-trick. He also scored a goal with his teammate Drogba. He once again scored eight goals in the Champions League. At present, like the Premier League goalscorer list, they are ahead of many big-name stars. I heard more than 40,000 people cheering for him-a Chinese youth. The shock comes from the soul. I can't help even the corners of my eyes wet. But that The most touching thing in the game was not his goal, after all, he had scored so many, but his reaction after being kicked down by Del Horno before the third goal. The fierce Chelsea teammates When rushing up, he got up from the ground, smiled, walked towards his former teammate, and embraced him with open arms."

"I saw that scene and the people around me were astonished, and even I clearly saw the Chelsea teammates on the field were astonished. Then, the Valencians applauded him, and applause came from my side. "

"I chatted with him after the game and admired his demeanor. Unexpectedly, he retorted that it was not something he deliberately made to show others, but that he understood Del Horno. In his words, it was an easily excited bar. Skeleton, but he is not a villain. Besides, we are already ahead of Chelsea and there is no need to carry a few yellow cards or even red cards for this."

"In the past few years, Wang Ai's smile is still the same as when he was a child, and it is still unrestrained in private. However, I clearly feel that this old friend who is within my reach is emerging with a potential called'greatness', which makes me Even if he goes deep into his life and comes into contact with his daily life, he still admires him. He may not know that my old friend who surprised him is looking up to him in his heart."
