Reborn on Top of Football

Although Johnson is unlikely to cause trouble, no one can say for sure. This man has always been known for his maverick and big mouth in the British political arena. If he is really ugly to China at that time, China can only bear the high probability. Therefore, temporarily recruiting Wang Ai as the irrelevant flag bearer is indeed a good move.

In the Western political system, the relationship between politicians and celebrities is often relatively close. Politicians have authority and celebrities have influence behind them. The two complement each other. Although Wang Ai has left Chelsea, it has only been half a season, and he returned to Fleet Street with his "double golden boots" after the season.

Johnson can play personality with China. After all, it can please some voters, but if he is rude to Wang Ai, it is meaningless and the loss is not small. Therefore, letting Wang Ai temporarily be the standard bearer can indeed stop Johnson's uncertainty, although the probability is not high.

In addition, the Olympic gold medal is also an important reason.

In the three major goals of China in this Olympics, only the national Olympic team led by Wang Ai won the championship, and the rest was the bronze medal in the women's volleyball team. In other words, this time the men's football team has a lot of prospects and suppressed the women's volleyball team. This is unprecedented.

Chinese football has never reached the top in the world, including women's football. The best result is the runner-up in the Olympics. Men's football not only created the history of men's football this time, but also created the history of Chinese football.

Football is the most influential project in the world and the most influential project in China. It is also the project with the largest number of participants, which means that the influence of this gold medal is unparalleled.

Among them, Wang Ai's contribution cannot be summed up by a shooter or a captain. He is the flag of Chinese football, he is the soul of the national name, and he is the creator of this championship team. Gao Hongbo's formation of troops revitalized these assets, and Wang Ai's blue ray of road created these assets.

Under normal circumstances, this flag bearer is an ordinary staff member, and the handover is done by waving the flag. But letting Wang Ai take the post is different. On the surface, he is a bit "undersized", but because of his special status and great influence, he is holding the Olympic flag, and he has a bit of representative of the Chinese Olympic team, and even all the athletes of this Olympic Games. Meaning.

Of course, the country will not state this meaning clearly, and the media will not talk nonsense after guessing it. Wang Ai will not talk nonsense when he knows it.

Many things in China are in such a subtle and only conscious state. If you understand it, it doesn't matter if you don't understand.

The wind started at the end of Qingping.

When Wang Ai "asked for leave" with his parents on the phone, his father and mother all hoped that he would stand on the last post and must successfully complete the organizational task!

It was the solemn attitude of his parents that allowed Wang Ai to get rid of the annoyance of not being able to punish Xu Qinglian, and slowly recalled, knowing how much glory the country has given him!

Therefore, Wang Ai returned to the Olympic Village that night and fell asleep early, and got up early the next morning. In order to maintain his mental state at night, he deliberately held the ball and ran out for morning exercises, so that when he came back, even Chen Tao was stupid: "Boss , No rest all day?"

Wang Ai smiled: "No, there is a mission."

In the morning, the cadres of the Olympic Organizing Committee came to the Olympic Village and took Wang Ai to the rehearsal site. Although not many people watched the closing ceremony, it was also a major national-level ceremony that should not be neglected. Wang Ai came out from the player channel to the center of the venue holding the flag, and walked this way more than a dozen times.

As he walked, Wang Ai became more and more puzzled. Why is this flag so uncomfortable?

Two years ago, Wang Ai was the flag bearer of the Doha Asian Games. That time he even sneaked home the flagpoles and national flags, and he played and played happily at home, so he was really experienced. Most people have more experience!

But this time I walked under the flag, no matter how uncomfortable I walked, I felt nothing was right.

"Little Wanger, look ahead!" Zhang Yimou said with a loud speaker on the side of the road.

Wang Ai looked at Zhang Yimou on the side of the road and shook his head: "Director Zhang, how come I, I don't feel right."

Zhang Yimou’s expression was very tired. He was not only the chief director but also the chief producer, and even the chief logistics officer, looking for him for everything, so his brain was not enough for a moment, so he walked over and asked, "What did you find? ?"

Wang Ai looked up, shook his arm again, and suddenly said, "Director Zhang, is this pole short?"

Before Zhang Yimou spoke, the assistant beside him rushed to talk: "It's not short, it's all this long."

Wang Ai frowned and licked his lips. He was also a bit unsure. After all, he just came and walked like this. How long have people been busy? But the uneasy feeling in my heart couldn't be dispatched, I wanted to retreat for fear of problems, and I wanted to stay without a reason, so I just bite the bullet!

Against the gaze of hundreds of people, neither advancing nor retreating, the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

Zhang Yimou stopped the assistant who was about to talk, smiled and lowered his arms, no matter how busy he was, Wang Ai would not miss Wang Ai for a few minutes.

The sweat on Wang Ai's forehead came down, and he didn't know whether the entanglement at the moment was really problematic or simply because his thinking had a problem.

Fortunately, Zhang Yimou didn't make any noise to interfere, and his thoughts continued, so after dozens of seconds of nervous thinking, Wang Ai stared, "No! Director Zhang, this is not right!"

Zhang Yimou nodded and waited for Wang Ai to say.

Wang Ai held the pole in one hand: "This pole is long on one side, but this flag, it's not big on one side!"

Zhang Yimou raised his head fiercely, turned his head again, and roughly compared the Olympic flag with the national flag, and said, "Huh!" He threw down the horn and snatched it from Wang Ai. He walked around to the center and shook the camera a few times. As a result, not only the flag couldn't be opened, but the corner of the flag was shaved!

That's it!

This banner is for the three distinguished guests from the Mayor of Beijing, the Chairman of the Olympic Organizing Committee, and the Mayor of London to wave to the world in front of the camera!

Zhang Yimou couldn't take care of greeting Wang Ai anymore, and he rushed to find the flagpoles. Unfortunately, all the flagpoles are of uniform specifications. Zhang Yimou plans to let people go to the factory to make them. He doesn't know if it will be too late. The splicing is afraid of insecurity, so he is simply busy Turn around.

Wang Ai also gave an idea, could it be okay to change to a smaller flag?

Zhang Yimou said no. The flag was lowered directly from the flagpole. It must be this side, because it symbolizes the transfer of the sponsorship right, and it has symbolic significance! It is precisely because of this that this flag is not as big as the usual national flags, it must be a long pole!

Fortunately, the staff found a spare long pole in the warehouse at the last moment. It was reserved to prevent the flag pole from breaking during the rehearsal. It could be cut off at any time.

At this time, Wang Ai had to hold the long pole and walk more than a dozen times. After many people studied together, it was not until noon that the length of the flagpole was finally determined.

"Xiao Wanger, thank you." Zhang Yimou asked Wang Ai to eat a box lunch with a smile on his face: "If you want to come, most people don't really dare to tell me."
