Wang Ai shook his head with a smile and said nothing more. In fact, his concern and worry about youth competitions are no worse than others, and he has early passed the three teams of Liao Shao, Liao Qing, Liao Football Culture Construction, and even civilian stadiums
A long-term plan has been carried out. However, there are no obvious results yet, so it is difficult to say too much.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost heightened, Duan Xuan raised his tea cup and clinked it with the two of them. After a pause, he said in a gentle tone: "Actually, our interview today comes from a large-scale plan of our sports channel this year. This is the first time that China has participated.
The tenth anniversary of the World Cup. In the past ten years, Chinese football has made a series of major breakthroughs in performance, actively responding to and satisfying the fans' expectations for many years. Xiao Wanger, you and Director Zhang were witnesses of that World Cup, and I invite you to have a discussion today.
, is to review and unearth the behind-the-scenes stories of that World Cup."
Wang Ai suddenly nodded: "So that's it."
Duan Xuan nodded: "In addition to you, we have many interviewees, including Yan Shiduo, Milu, Zhang Jilong, Ma Mingyu... When various competitions stop this summer, we will broadcast this program together.
.”
"There are two other people you should interview."
"Who is it?"
"Zheng Zhi, Bai Guanghai."
"Unselected?"
"Yes, not only were they defeated, but they also performed well after being defeated, and served as the main force in future World Cups and made important contributions." Wang Ai smiled: "Interview them and ask them whether they are watching the 02 World Cup at home.
What a good mood, hehe."
Zhang Lu smiled and shook his head: "Xiao Wang'er, now you know the purpose of the interview. Although we have all experienced it, and we have also been witnesses in the past ten years, in the final analysis, it is you who has performed best in the past ten years. National Team
Of course, it is the collective efforts of our Football Association, the coaching staff and your players, but in terms of personal performance, in the league, your performance is outstanding, even beyond people's imagination, just like the direct reason for us coming here this time, you
Breaking Gerd Muller's 40-year record with 5 games left in the league... Well, again, the span is too big, beyond people's imagination. So even though I said a long paragraph and explained it theoretically
The reasons for your success, but I think the majority of fans, including the fans, still want to hear your personal words about that World Cup and these ten years."
"For you, for Chinese football and fans, it has been a glorious decade." Duan Xuan nodded and added: "You just said that you have whetted the appetite of fans across the country. The side of this statement actually reflects the attitude of fans across the country.
My eyes have been following you for ten years. You led them from Bundesliga 2, to La Liga, to the Premier League, to Serie A, and then to the Bundesliga. You led them to experience high-level competitions, high-level football knowledge and big stars.
There are many aspects of life. In the past, we didn’t have football stars of your level, and those of your level may not be able to be interviewed by us, and even if they are interviewed, they may not be able to show it as openly as you. In short, these ten years have been
Chinese fans have been happy for ten years, and a large part of the happiness was brought by you."
Wang Ai patiently listened to Duan Xuan's emotional comments and smiled: "In these ten years, I may be happier."
Speaking of this, Wang Ai looked around his backyard. Lin Long, who was operating the camera, silently moved the angle of the camera to follow Wang Ai's gaze, scanning the backyard full of green grass and flowers, and repositioned the camera.
When Lin Long reached Wang Ai, he made a gesture to Wang Ai.
"Look, this is the house I live in. It is better than 99% of people in China. Although it is on the southern edge of the city in Munich, it still belongs to the city center in the concentric circles. It is worth 20 million yuan." Speaking of this, Wang Ai
With a hint of memories: "I still remember the scene when I returned to China for the 2002 game. Not to mention anything else, there were several trucks of fans' gifts transferred from the Football Association. I haven't read the letters written by fans to me yet.
It's my friend. My assistant replied to the letter for me. I just signed it. This is a sincere heart treating me sincerely. What do you think football has brought to the people? We are letting the fans
By spending money, we athletes have received sincere love from thousands of ordinary people, and this love is extremely profound. Because of this love, we have enjoyed flowers and applause, we have a high reputation, and we have achieved financial freedom.
It is said that we have made a lot of money. I can say straightforwardly that my status in today's world football is inseparable from the support of fans across the country. I can compete with others. In addition to my performance on the court,
External supporters are also extremely important.”
Speaking of this, Wang Ai shook his head with a complicated expression: "You can imagine, in short, in a country with a large population in the world, a country that is on the road to recovery but has not yet achieved complete recovery, in a country with many fans but longing for good results
I cannot overstate the importance of my country and fans to me over the decades."
"Is this the driving force behind your progress over the past ten years?"
"Of course." Wang Ai nodded immediately: "But I don't mean to say it in my heart all the time like the movie and TV show expresses it, and flash back to the scenes of fans' tearful support in my heart, that's not what I mean. Frankly speaking, if I
If I always think like this, this emotional power will be weakened. Because no matter how strong the emotion is, it cannot withstand the passage of time. Its existence will not become the force that spurs me every moment, but will become the basic consideration when I make major decisions.
For example, if I want to transfer, then I have to consider that the fans like me for my good results and that they like me to appear on the highest stage in the league when there is no World Cup or Asian Cup, that is, the Champions League. Then the first option in my transfer options is
It will exclude those who are not qualified for the Champions League. For the same transfer, I will also try my best to favor those who are well-known in China, those who fans have watched on TV for many years, because we all know that as a fan, we very much hope to be in
Such a team has a Chinese face. If he can perform well and help the team create very good results, then it will be the effect of 1+1>2, and it will be many times more satisfying. Just like watching
It’s like having a favorite actor appear in an adaptation of a favorite novel.”
"Inter Milan?" Duan Xuan smiled and said, "Really?"
Wang Ai hesitated for a moment and nodded with a smile: "Yes, although going to Inter Milan took into account the strength of the team at that time and the ambition of the team owner, it did also take into account the popularity of Inter Milan in China. Well, before that, I had a choice.
Not big. The main consideration when moving from the Bundesliga to La Liga was Depor's strength at the time. I was still young at that time and my state was not stable. If I were to go to a wealthy club, I would probably not have the opportunity to play and improve.
Chance."
