Young Football Player

Chapter 52: Interview

   Li Chenglong was injured and went off the field, and soon followed the team doctor to the locker room for treatment.

  Strains, unless it is a particularly serious situation that requires surgery, generally most of the strains are waiting for natural recovery, at most, some topical medicine is used to speed up the recovery.

   In the locker room, the team doctor checked carefully and confirmed that his strain was indeed not serious. Li Chenglong was also relieved.

Since joining Dundee United, Jackie Lee has missed a few games when he didn't win the trust of the head coach at the beginning of the season. After most of the time, Jackie Lee has basically played in Dundee United's important games, and most of them are starting games. .

   After more than half of the season, he has basically not suffered any injuries, and now is his first injury.

   Li Chenglong felt that if injury resistance can be seen in the system, his injury resistance should be of the very high kind.

   This is also a good thing. Many geniuses in football are destroyed by injuries.

   The real top players, high attendance rate is a major foundation to ensure their success.

   The team doctor applied ice to the strained position of Li Chenglong, and then he will stay in the locker room to watch the game.

   Now the game is not over, and Li Chenglong's injury is not serious enough to go to the hospital immediately, so he can only wait in the locker room for the game to end, and then return to Dundee with the whole team.

   The first half of the game was over soon, the score was still 2:0, everything was as expected by Li Chenglong.

   During the intermission, the teammates who returned to the locker room came to comfort him. Old John also rushed to the locker room and insulted the Irishman Anderson who injured Jackie Lee with all kinds of ugly words.

   The second half of the game was about to begin, and teammates and coaching staff also went out to prepare for the game, but Old John stayed at the end.

   "Bruce, I just met two Chinese in the stands. They said they were reporters for a famous sports newspaper in China and wanted to interview you. What do you think?"

   Listening to what Old John said, Li Chenglong immediately thought of the two strange Chinese reporters at the press conference before the game in the morning.

   Unexpectedly, they found Old John there. There was a way. But now the old John is very famous among the Dundee United fans. Many people know that he is his grandfather. It seems that it is not difficult for them to ask the news and find it.

Seeing that Jackie Lee seemed to be hesitating, Old John continued: "I think it would be good for you to accept their interview. Although Kate always thinks I am an old antique, I still know a little bit. The economic development in China has been very fast in recent years. How can I say that you also have Chinese ancestry. If you can gain popularity there, it will be of great help to your future commercial value."

   "That's it, you can arrange for them to come in." Li Chenglong also had no intention to refuse.

   "How popular is Bruce in China? Isn't it very high?"

   "Uh, okay, he still has a certain popularity on the Internet."

   "Why, doesn't it mean that there are no famous players in China? Isn't Bruce's strength enough to make him popular in China? Or is it that no one in China cares about football at all?"

   "The main reason is that no formal sports media has specifically reported on him, and there are also some good players in China playing in Europe. At present, there are Chinese players in the Bundesliga, and fans still care more about these European players."

"There are Chinese players in the Bundesliga? Why haven't I heard of it? But before, there was a Chinese named Zizi who played well in the Celtics. I remember his first appearance was in the Glasgow Derby. I just watched that game. , He made a penalty shortly after his debut."

   "Well, he was the captain of our previous national team."

  ……

   Kang Ning and Xia Qing were a bit speechless. The old man with white beard kept chattering, but they were a little annoying.

   But the other party is Li Chenglong's grandfather, and they have to rely on each other to see Li Chenglong, they can only bear it.

   Both Corning and Xia Qing are resident correspondents sent to Europe by Football Weekly. Corning is a resident correspondent of the Premier League and Xia Qing is a resident correspondent of Ligue 1.

Large sports newspapers such as "Football Weekly" sent resident reporters to Europe very early. In the late 1990s, they first sent resident reporters from Serie A. Then after entering the new century, the Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga and French Ligue 1 were all separated. With resident reporters.

   The job of a resident reporter is mainly to get some exclusive news as soon as possible.

   But Chinese football is not good, and Chinese football reporters naturally can't get tough. They often can't find much relationship, and they can't interview the top stars. Even the big clubs have a hard time getting in.

   Most of the time, they just processed the reports of European media and then sent them back to China.

   This job is not easy to do.

The paper media is no better than the online media. The online media can break the news as soon as there is any turmoil. If you don’t withdraw it to me, at most, I will apologize. The paper media reports must be affected. Once they are sent out, they cannot be withdrawn. Up.

   If you report anything indiscriminately, it will easily cause trouble.

   In addition to choosing to process some foreign media reports and transfer them back to China, these resident reporters usually pay attention to news related to Chinese players.

   If a club in the five major leagues expresses an interest in a Chinese player, they will rush to interview.

   If a Chinese player really joins a European club, especially the five major leagues, almost all of the resident reporters will be waiting for the news.

   Since Chinese player Gao Junmin joined the Bundesliga powerhouse Schalke 04 last year, resident reporters have often gone to Germany, and Corning and Xia Qing are also two of them.

   But after a long time everyone discovered that Gao Junmin couldn't play in the Bundesliga, so he went back to his home.

   And Corning, as an old man who has been a resident reporter in the Premier League since 2004, he knows that a Chinese star is very popular in the Scottish League recently. And it's not the kind of ordinary Chinese. It is said that they grew up in China. This should be very attractive to Chinese fans.

Corning also specifically inquired about the news from China. This Chinese player is indeed popular on the Chinese Internet, but no one in the regular media has accurate information, and it is not even clear whether the information uploaded on the Internet is true or false, so it still No one officially reported.

   Corning felt that this was an opportunity, so he brought Xia Qing to Scotland with him, intending to meet the Chinese star for a while.

  The reason why he brought Xia Qing is because Corning felt that the report they sent back together should attract more attention.

   Of course, if the report is distorted, someone will recite it with him.

   Entering the locker room of Hampton Park Stadium, Corning and Xia Qing finally saw their target, Jackie Lee, up close.

  Although they were given a chance to ask questions at the press conference before, they were all separated far away, and even the appearance of Jackie Lee did not see too clearly.

Spiritual short hair, sunny face, slightly sharp eyes, very ordinary height, from the appearance alone, it seems that it is not much different from the Chinese, but it is more handsome. This is the first time that Corning and Xia Qing The impression of seeing Li Chenglong up close.

   "Hello, Bruce." The two came forward to shake hands, and Li Chenglong also stood up and shook hands with them. The two immediately saw the ice on his leg, and immediately said, "You don't need to stand up, just sit down."

   "Your injury is nothing serious, right?" The two still asked politely about the injury.

"It's okay, it's just a little strain. Just take a two-week break." Li Chenglong heard that the younger reporter seemed to not speak English very well, so he said, "You can speak Chinese, I can understand. ."

   "I didn't expect you to speak Chinese so well..."

   The two introduced themselves first, so they started an official interview. They planned to use this opportunity to make an interview directly.

   "Lee Chenglong, please tell me about your parents first."

   "My father is from Shandong Province, China, and my mother is from Scots. They met when they were studying together at the University of London."

   "Then you were born in England?"

   "Well, I was born in London, England."

   "But I heard that it was raised in China, what's the matter?"

   "At that time, my parents were both in college and it was not convenient to take care of me, so they sent me back to China and my grandfather took care of me."

   "Can you tell me about your grandpa?"

   "He died when I was 10 years old."

   "Oh, sorry, do you still have an impression of China now?"

   "Of course, my childhood was spent in China, and I was no different from ordinary Chinese kids since I was a kid. UU reading www.uukanshu.com threw sandbags, played marbles, played Street Fighter and Super Mario."

   "Then when did you first come into contact with football?"

"On my 5th birthday, when the Chinese professional league was still very popular, my grandfather took me out to buy birthday gifts, and I picked a football. From then on, the ball is often kept, and I always take it with me wherever I go. A football."

   "Then did you receive professional youth training when you were in China?"

   "No, at that time I was completely wild, kicking by myself."

   "How was your level at that time?"

   "It was pretty good when I was in China, I feel that no one could have played me at that time."

   "Then why did you come to live in the UK again?"

   "Because my grandfather passed away, he was very sad at that time and wanted to leave China to relax. Now it has been several years since I was separated."

   The interview between the two is very careful, and they will ask questions almost as long as it involves all aspects of China.

   Finally they asked the most crucial question: "Have you considered playing for the Chinese national team in the future?"

   "Well, I did consider it. If the conditions are right, I would be happy to play for the Chinese team."

   Li Chenglong did consider that although he lives in the UK now, Li Chenglong still agrees with his identity as a Chinese. If the Chinese Football Association is not so bad, he can really consider playing for the Chinese team.

   The premise is not to pit.

The two actually wanted to continue to dig out more news, but at this time the game was almost over, and their identities were not suitable for staying in the locker room anymore, so the two had to take pictures with Li Chenglong and leave contact information with each other. , This concludes this interview.
