"Times" is an American publication that is not available in the country, and some of it is sold in Hong Kong. And Wang Ai's copy was sent by a special entruster of the Times editorial department after the publication of the current issue. I happened to have just arrived and was walked around at the door.
When Zhu Heyuan saw it, he hurriedly came to tell the good news.
"Really? Show it to me." Wang Ai got up from the grass, patted his butt, walked over and stretched out his hand.
"Oh, that's not right. You must have known about the interview you accepted in advance." Zhu Heyuan withdrew his hand in confusion.
"I know, but I have to see if they are talking nonsense." Wang Ai twisted around and ran behind Zhu Heyuan to grab it.
At this moment, Shao Jiayi, Zhao Xuri and others were also gathered around. Except for a few people who didn't know what "Times" was, most of their teammates looked shocked. Especially the overseas players, almost no one didn't know about "Times".
It has huge influence. I dare not say it is a global authoritative magazine, but it is definitely an authoritative magazine in most developed countries.
Zhu Heyuan and Wang Ai argued for a while before giving the magazine to Wang Ai, but they did not leave. They also crowded in the crowd to read. When the magazine was delivered, there were two copies, both wrapped in plastic. He took it, but he got it.
It hasn't been opened either.
"It's not like you!" Lao Bai grabbed a book and slapped the cover.
"It's not a photo, it's a painting." Wang Ai looked down at the magazine report and said without looking up.
"That's not right. What kind of look do you have? You're wearing a bright red tights. I'm looking at you. You're wearing a hood, so you're Spider-Man, right? That American movie from the year before last, the year before that?" Lao Bai showed it to his teammates.
cover.
Everyone thought about it and found that it did look like it. On the cover, Wang Ai only showed a side face with a determined expression, and then the entire shape of his body was in the air, and he stretched out an arm forward, as if he was shooting spider silk.
Needless to say, the painting is quite lifelike, but Wang Ai usually has a playful and smiling face, and is rarely serious, so Lao Bai thinks it doesn't look like it. In fact, the artist painted it based on a photo of Wang Ai's profile, which is just an artistic exaggeration.
.
"Read it to us, these are all foreign words." Li Jinyu pulled Lao Bai eagerly.
Lao Bai seriously popularizes science: "Dayu, a foreign country is not a 'country'".
"Don't be so talkative, what on earth did you write?"
"... Foreign countries are not "a" country, so their words are different from each other. I am in Germany, brother!"
At this time, Sun Jihai pulled Qu Bo in and squeezed in: "I'll come, I'll come, I can speak English... Hey, this hat is quite big, look... Listen, here, what is written here is 'Contemporary English'
One of the most famous football stars, 'a famous young philosopher', and a 'philanthropist'! Oh, and also, 'the leader and planner of the most sensational showdown of the century at the turn of the spring and summer of 2006'
, is known as a 'model of business marketing'...Who is talking about this?"
In the unclear expressions of his teammates, Wang Ai raised his head and smiled, without explaining in detail. They are all professional players, and they will figure it out sooner or later without explanation. This is a shining example for them and even the entire Chinese football professional circle.
, which can promote the professionalization level of Chinese football.
The training couldn't go on anymore, so several coaches simply came over to watch the fun. Ali Haan's big fat face appeared among the teammates. He glanced at Sun Jihai's hand and saw that it was "TIME"! His whole body was shocked.
A player who can be on the cover of the American edition of Time Magazine must be praised by whoever is the coach and whoever is popular in whichever team he is in. In the past, the national team's surname was "Wang" because of Wang Aila's Tübingen roots, so from now on the surname
"King" is truly unbreakable.
The report on Wang Ai in this issue of the magazine was eight pages long. Wang Ai only read half of it. Zhu Heyuan handed Wang Ai the phone. It was from Yan Shiduo. Yesterday, Leoni went to Beijing for a meeting with the Football Association and she talked about it while chatting.
As a result, Chairman Yan didn't sleep well all night.
There are many Chinese people on the cover of the American edition, but they are all politicians, scientists, and military strategists. In other words, Chinese cultural and sports stars have no global influence at all. If they are to be on the cover, they can only be on the Asian edition, and they only reflect Asia.
The influence of the whole country has no influence in the "international society", that is, the influence of European and American society. And Wang Ai is the first Chinese athlete and Chinese cultural and sports star to be taken seriously by European and American society.
Can this mean any less?
Many ordinary Chinese people don't understand the difference, and the celebrity team deliberately confuses and bluffs, so most people only know that the cover character of "Times" is awesome, but they don't know the difference. But Yan Shiduo's level
Even if the cadres don’t know it originally, how can they still not understand it after asking around a little bit?
Ali Haan, a foreign coach, shivered when he saw Wang Ai on the cover of the American edition of Time. As a leader, Chairman Yan had little insomnia. The only thing he was lucky about was that the Football Association had always taken good care of Wang Ai, even if
There were some unpleasant moments, but overall, the relationship between the two parties is good. Wang Ai is not only the captain of the national football team under the leadership of the Football Association, but also an external expert for the youth department. After all, Wang Ai is on the cover, and there is also a member of the Football Association.
A share of credit.
Moreover, the credit is not small. This is a ground-breaking event in the Chinese football world, and it may not be followed by others. Looking at it magnified, it is also a ground-breaking event in the entire sports and cultural circles of China. Apart from Wang Ai, there is no one else. Culture and Sports
When a star reaches the top and wins professional awards such as Best Actor and Best Actress, he or she will either pursue an official career or achieve social influence. But the highest criterion for judging influence is the cover of Time, the American version of Time cover, which means
Recognized for its global influence.
Under Yan Shiduo's command, Wang Ai was able to grow to this point, and you can tell from his voice how happy he is.
"Xiao Wang, you did a good job. I saw the magazine... I don't understand English, so I asked for a translator. I found one from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They were professional. They translated it for me, and there were actually good things in it... Let me tell you, just now
The leader called me, and several leaders praised you... Don't ask me who they are, you just need to know. I also formally commended you, on behalf of the Football Association. I will give you back.
You submit documents and call on everyone to learn from you... There is nothing that cannot be learned from you... Oh, that's true, but you also have to submit documents! It's always good to learn if you can't learn... Okay, don't worry about it! Oh, by the way,
Aren't you still jealous of Liu Xiang's Lawrence? Don't be jealous this time, I will fight for you at the end of the year! I don't believe it, you..."
Putting down the phone, Wang Ai looked at the circle of people with eager eyes: "Don't look at me. Come to Germany and I'll treat you!"
