Almost the entire Flashing Star first team went to Hu Lai's greenhouse party. The scale was completely different from a party with less than ten people, and the movement was very loud.
In addition, there are many outside staff on site.
So it's impossible that the media doesn't know about this.
As the Flash Stars were promoted from the Chinese League A to the Chinese Super League, their level of attention also increased to a higher level.
From a certain point of view, Hu Lai thought that if they had a party after the victory, it would not cause controversy, or they were too young and naive.
Soon there were rumors on the Internet that the whole team of Flash Star gathered in a super luxurious villa to have crazy fun.
And after this rumor came out, most of the public response was negative.
Although Shining Star has won two consecutive games, in the eyes of critics, this is not only not a reason for Shining Star to relax, but it has become a reason for criticism-it has only won two games and it has become so complacent.
?Forgot that Wednesday is the away game against Sydney Coast?
Critics worry that partying at this time will affect the team's performance in the AFC Champions League.
Some people think that this is simply the result of young people getting carried away and drifting away, not knowing the heights of the sky and the heights of the sky, and having no sense of awe.
Others pretended to regret: "... I originally thought that the younger generation of players like Hu Lai could be better than their predecessors, but now it seems that it is just my wishful thinking... As expected, Chinese football is a big stain, no matter who
It’s hard not to change your appearance when you get in... What will you do after you get a salary increase? Move into a big villa, party and party every night... That’s why I often say that if the environment does not improve, no matter how many geniuses are produced,
It’s no use…”
It seemed that he was feeling sorry for Hu Lai, but in fact, he was giving Hu Lai a thumbs up.
It's as if the person is still alive and well, and he rushes to hold a memorial service for him. What does this mean? Isn't it clear at a glance?
Such remarks naturally caused dissatisfaction among many Hu Lai fans.
But in the face of facts, they seem to lack confidence.
Because after Hu Lai moved, it was a sure thing to invite all the teammates to a party. In the face of this reality, what they could do was very limited.
You can't tell lies with your eyes open. You have to say that this party for Hu Lai and the others is not about eating, drinking and having fun, but training, right?
※※※
The Flash Star players finished their morning training, and the whole team took the bus directly to the airport.
They are going to Sydney, Australia, to play their fifth AFC Champions League group match against Sydney Coast.
When they arrived in Sydney and got off the plane and reconnected their phones to the internet, someone exclaimed: "What the hell is this?"
It turned out that someone had sent them screenshots of an online discussion about their party at Hu Lai’s mansion.
Among the local topics on Weibo, it was on the hot search list.
The name of the topic is "Hu Lai Mansion Carnival Party".
"Why is it just my mansion?" Hu Lai protested after seeing the name of this topic, "And Brother Huan, Little Xingxing and the others! I didn't pay the rent alone! Why didn't they add other people's names to it?
?Are you looking down on Brother Huan? Brother Huan, let me tell you, I am not a troublemaker, but I really can’t bear this matter..."
"Go away! Is that the point?" Zhang Qinghuan said, "The point is that people are using this to criticize us for getting carried away and having an inappropriate party at an inappropriate time."
Hu Lai pouted: "People are dying every day in this world. Is it because their parents died that we can't even laugh?"
Hu Lai shrugged, not paying much attention to the voices on the Internet.
Don’t be afraid of slanting shadows if you are upright!

Club general manager Dong Wen, who was accompanying the team on the expedition, also saw the news after getting off the plane. He quickly ran to find Zhao Kangming: "Do you know about this, Old Zhao?"
He showed the phone to Zhao Kangming.
The latter took one look and laughed: "I know."
When Dong Wen saw that he was still smiling, half of the stone in his heart fell. Then he asked: "What's going on?"
"Isn't the point of these people's criticism that the team members went to Hu Lai's house to play? But the problem is that they didn't play..." Zhao Kangming spread his hands.
"Aren't you having fun?" Dong Wen was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became serious, "Old Zhao? It's not okay to respond to public opinion like this. Who believes that they are not having fun?"
Zhao Kangming wanted to explain to Dong Wen, but when he saw Hu Lai waiting for his luggage next to the luggage conveyor belt, he directly raised his hand and said, "Hu Lai, come here!"
After calling Hu Lai, he pointed at Dong Wen: "Explain to Manager Dong yourself what happened at the party that night."
Hu Lai, who was not afraid of the shadows, told Dong Wen everything that happened at their party that day.
Zhao Kangming was watching from the side. As Hu Lai was telling the story, the expression on Dong Wen's face gradually changed from anxious and dignified to a black question mark face.
"So there are more than twenty of you, playing group matches all night at the football field in the back garden?"
Facing Manager Dong's question? Hu Lai nodded: "Yes? Manager Dong. They just pushed me out of the first place..."
Dong Wen raised his hand: "That's not the point. Wait a minute...let me figure it out. Are you going to invite everyone to your new home and have a greenhouse party?"
Hu Lai nodded: "Yes, Manager Dong."
"Then you said you invented a little game? It's called 'Iron Cage'...what's the iron cage?"
"Scorpion fight in an iron cage? Manager Dong."
"You invented a little game called 'Iron Cage Scorpion Fighting'. Then everyone participated enthusiastically? The game continued until the end?"
"That's right? Manager Dong. I used to be at the top of the list, but then they knocked me down!"
Manager Dong ignored Hu Lai this time, but the whole person fell into silence.
He seemed to be slowly digesting the news he heard.
After a while, he said to Hu Lai: "It's not that I don't believe you? Hu Lai, it's just that what you said is too bizarre. Don't talk about me, I'm afraid not many others dare to believe it.
…This is the first time I’ve heard that professional players don’t have food, drink and have fun at their parties? Instead, they play group competitions…”
Hu Lai said quickly: "We have photos as proof, Manager Dong."
"Do you have photos?" Dong Wen's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"There are not only photos, but also videos." The speaker this time was Qin Lin, who came over at some point. He handed over his mobile phone, "My wife used her mobile phone to record a match between Qin Qi and Hu Lai that day.
video.”
Dong Wen clapped his hands and said: "Okay! This matter has caused little stir in the online public opinion. Instead, it has become an excellent publicity opportunity for our club!"
※※※
When the Shining Star team was adapting to the field training in the away game, the club arranged for team reporter Chen Jianyu to interview Hu Lai and Qin Lin to clarify the rumors on the Internet.
"Some people on the Internet said that you celebrated wildly after the team won, completely ignoring the AFC Champions League next, partying and having fun... Hu Lai, do you have anything to say?" Chen Jianyu asked.
Hu Lai spread his hands: "But the problem is that we don't have any carnival fun!"
Chen Jianyu asked cooperatively: "No carnival fun? Did you invite your teammates to play in the new house?"
"I invited you, but after we finished eating, we played a team match in the yard..."
After speaking, Hu Lai took out his mobile phone and showed the photos on the phone to Chen Jianyu.
This scene was naturally recorded clearly and clearly by the camera next to it.
Soon, Chen Jianyu posted these photos on his personal Weibo and accompanied them with interview copy.
This can be regarded as clarifying everyone's misunderstanding about their party in the media.
Then, some big V marketing accounts made up jokes about this matter and spread them widely.
These jokes are basically accompanied by photos or videos of the scene.
"Are you coming to a party? The kind where you have a group match after dinner!"
"I sympathize with the Stars players in real name. They happily went to the appointment thinking that what was waiting for them was fine wine, food and beautiful women, but in fact what was waiting for them was strength training, physical training, and competition! Although it is really miserable, why do I think so?
Are you laughing? Hahahahahaha!"
"I've heard of barbecue parties, pool parties, and beautiful women at parties... But to be honest, this is the first time I've heard of the group competition party. It's been a long time since I've seen it [face covering]
[laughing and crying]…”
"Honestly, when the news about Hu Lai and the others having a party in the mansion first spread on the Internet, I didn't believe it at all. Why? Think about it, who is the treater? It's Hu Lai! Hu Lai's treat
, can we eat, drink and have fun as everyone thinks? If that guy doesn’t come up with something, then the guest will be in vain, okay? Sure enough! Let me tell you...it’s really you, Hu Lai!"
"There was an incident in domestic football recently... What happened was that Hu Lai and a few of his good friends found a place to rent together in a big house, and then invited the entire Shining Star team to attend their housewarming party. Everyone heard about it
At a party, do you suddenly have images of all kinds of sensuality and partying in your mind? That’s right! The Flash Star players must have thought so too, so they were so happy... After the training, everyone
Putting on the clothes for the banquet, vowing to be the most shining Super Star in this party... Guess what? A group of professional players just came off the training ground, but they kicked off in Hu Lai's greenhouse.
Game! Let me kill you! Is there such a ridiculous operation? I don’t know what the Flash Star players think, but if it were me, if I had known this was the case, I would not have gone at all! No!
Not to mention, Hu Lai is also a genius for thinking of having everyone compete in groups at the party..."
…
Because this matter had indeed attracted much attention before, and the result was so bizarre, it immediately sparked an upsurge of attention and discussion on the Internet.
Countless marketing accounts, Internet celebrity Vs, and melon-eating people voluntarily forwarded it with the words "Hahahahahahaha".
A public relations crisis that was troublesome for Hu Lai and the entire Shining Star team was turned into a viral marketing joke in the blink of an eye. On the contrary, the style of the Shining Star team was different from other teams. In fact,
Lovely tight.
Not only people in the football and sports circles are discussing it, but also media and big Vs in other fields are forwarding it.
Let this matter go out of control.
Anton Shining Star became an internet celebrity team overnight, just like the city where they are located, Jincheng.
※※※
Of course, in order to change the perception of this matter in everyone's minds, apart from public relations operations, the most important thing is actually the performance of the team.
If the team does not perform well on the road and loses the game, all previous public relations methods will be ineffective.
Everyone will still blame the party for the loss.
They would say that it was all because of Hu Lai's nonsense, which caused his teammates to exceed their usual training content, leading to physical exhaustion, and was the main culprit for the team's loss of the game.
Anyway, there are many reasons to take the pot. Just choose pots of different calibers according to different situations, and then distribute them as needed.
There is always a pot suitable for Hu Lai and others.
This is how the football world works.
The winner is king.
As long as you can win, even if you get together to play songs night after night before each game, and fight for 300 rounds in and out of bed, it is just anecdotes to talk about after the victory, just an "anecdote" under the legend.
But if you can't win, even if you work hard at the training ground and at home every day, if people want to criticize you, they can also say that your life is boring, you lack passion, and you are not suitable for the passionate sport of football...
It's like touching the trophy before the final.
This behavior was seen as an ominous sign. Everyone believed it, and it seemed that if they lost, they would blame the person who touched the trophy before the game.
The game hadn't even started yet, but when I saw someone touching the trophy in advance, I was so nervous that I found a reason for losing the championship in advance.
But has anyone touched the trophy before the game and won the game?
there must be.
At this time, everyone pretended not to remember such a curse at all, but they never mentioned that whether or not they touched the trophy before the game was not a key factor affecting the team's final victory.
Therefore, whether the party can finally end smoothly and land smoothly depends on the result of the Twin Stars' away game against Sydney Coast.
The penultimate round of the AFC Champions League group stage can already determine the life or death of many teams.
Osaka Victory currently ranks first with ten points. As long as they can not lose to third-placed Seoul LG at home, they will be able to qualify from this group early.
And if Osaka Victory can qualify in advance, then Flash Stars can also qualify for the group in advance as long as they do not lose to Sydney Coast in an away game. Because in the AFC Champions League group stage, to determine who has a higher ranking if the same points are scored, first look at
is the winning-loss relationship between teams with the same score.
At this point, Shining Star leads Seoul LG with one win and one draw.
Therefore, even if Seoul LG draws with Osaka Victory in an away game, Shining Stars also draws with Sydney Coast away from home. With the last round of the AFC Champions League group stage left, Shining Stars leads Seoul LG by three points, and has an advantage in the outcome.
Even if Shining Star loses to Osaka Victory at home in the last round, and Seoul LG defeats Sydney Coast at home, the two teams will have the same points. Shining Star will also qualify for the group stage.
In the end, Flash Stars drew 0:0 with Sydney Coast in the away game.
Seoul LG lost to Osaka Victory 1:3 in the away game.
Now, Anton Shining Star, who participated in the AFC Champions League for the first time, and Osaka Victory fought through the group stage and advanced to the top 16.
Did anyone else criticize that party?
No.
On the Internet, the topic of "Flash Star qualifying for the AFC Champions League" has once again become a hot topic.
