host must win

Chapter 38 Encounter

June 6th is the Dragon Boat Festival of the lunar calendar.

Just after participating in the World Cup, the Chinese team returned to Beijing from South Korea, and held a team summary meeting in the conference room on the second floor of the Kunlun Hotel in Beijing.

The Football Association did not allow reporters to enter the venue to observe, but agreed to take pictures of the reporters 2 minutes before the meeting to record this historical moment.

The meeting then took place behind closed doors.Whenever a person finishes his "farewell speech", there will be a burst of warm applause in the venue.

One hour later, before the meeting was over, Zhang Enhua suddenly stepped out of the venue alone. "Heizi" has become a member of the "Mi Family Army" since the first training session of the national football team in Jiading in March 1.But now, with the regret of not playing the World Cup in 2000 minutes, he left behind the coaches and teammates who were still in the meeting, and left alone with the luggage he had prepared, and no one saw him off.

After more than an hour, the "final meeting" finally came to an end.The Ford Bao company under the Football Association prepared a ceremony, and brought silver ball-shaped trophies into the conference room, with the words "Silver Balls in Commemoration of World Cup Qualification".Obviously before breaking up, the Football Association hopes that everyone will forget the regret of being out of the group stage in the World Cup, and leave a happy memory to move on.

………………

At 12:30 noon, the national team collectively participated in the "last lunch" hosted by the sponsors, accompanied by two chairmen and vice presidents of the Football Association. They thanked the sponsors for their support over the past two years and praised The hard work and sweat of the players in the past two years.

The World Cup group stage has ended, and the final ranking of the Chinese team has been decided: they finally ranked No. 20 four.

Among the 32 teams participating in the Club World Cup, in addition to the [-] teams that advanced to the knockout stage, there are seven teams from South Africa, Portugal, Cameroon, Argentina, Croatia, Ecuador and Russia that are ahead of the Chinese team. These seven teams either surpassed the Chinese team in points or surpassed the Chinese team in goal difference.

But for the Chinese team, which appeared in the World Cup for the first time, this is already an acceptable result.

In particular, the performance of the Chinese team on the offensive end is remarkable, and the offensive firepower can rank fourth in the group stage, which has surprised everyone.

You know, the most ideal goal of the Chinese team before was just to "win a game, tie a game, score a goal", and then get 4 points to advance to the knockout round.

Today, the Chinese team has scored 6 goals, which is far beyond the task.It's a pity that the team missed the knockout round because of the poor defense.

After lunch, the international players began to leave the Kunlun Hotel one after another, and took a taxi to go home.

Yin Jun did not leave the Kunlun Hotel, because his parents both came to the capital and lived here.So, on this evening, Yin Jun's parents approached the Kunlun Hotel to arrange some zongzi. The family of three, together with the manager Aunt Tang, celebrated Yin Jun's first Dragon Boat Festival after he crossed over.

………………

Starting from June 6th, Yin Jun began to accompany his parents and travel around various scenic spots in the capital, while his agent, Aunt Tang, began to negotiate with those brands that were interested in inviting Yin Jun to treat him.

As for the crew that invited Yin Jun to play the role, Lu Qi only agreed to the two crews of "The Family" and "Dragon Babu" on behalf of Yin Jun.

In fact, Lu Qi was very surprised by Yin Jun's choice.Because of the scripts that Yin Jun rejected, Yin Jun's roles were relatively important, while the two scripts left behind were all soy sauce roles.

But since Yin Jun chose this way, she would not say anything.After all, for Yin Jun, playing football is a serious job, and even in the second half of the year, he is likely to go abroad to play football, filming or something, which seems a bit irrelevant.

What made Yin Jun very depressed was that whenever he accompanied his parents to a scenic spot, it would cause chaos on the scene.The World Cup is not over yet, and Chinese fans are everywhere, let alone scenic spots with a lot of traffic.

Therefore, after accompanying his parents to the Forbidden City and the Badaling Great Wall, Yin Jun wisely stopped his plan to accompany his parents and let the old couple go to visit other scenic spots in the capital alone.

Although the old couple felt a little regretful about this, for the sake of a safe and smooth trip, they no longer asked Yin Jun to accompany them.

………………

The World Cup is still in full swing. As early as the Chinese celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, the knockout rounds of the World Cup have already begun.

Judging from the two knockout games on the first day, everything looked normal, and everything that should be won was won: the German team beat Paraguay 1:0, and England won Denmark 3:0 cleanly.

But on the second day, there was a big upset, Sweden was eliminated by Senegal, and then Spain drew 120:1 with Ireland in 1 minutes, and the Matadors narrowly won 4:3 in the penalty shootout. .

The first knockout game on the third day was very surprising again, because Mexico, ranked seventh in the world, was completely defeated by the US team with a score of 0:2.

The Brazilian team defeated Belgium 2-0 without any doubt.

On June 6, Yin Jun went to the crew of "The Family" to report and met with everyone.

On the same day, Liu Xian'er, the actress who played the second female lead Bai Xiuzhu who had just rushed back to China from the other side of the ocean, also reported to the crew, and the two will eventually become a "husband and wife" in the play.

Originally, the crew chose to play Bai Xiuzhu not Liu Xian'er, but a Korean actor, but because of the visa, that actor could not come to China, so the crew urgently replaced the actor who had just returned from the United States and was going to study in North Korea. The shadow of Liu Xianer.

The "husband and wife" in this play are both new actors who have become monks.

Yin Jun didn't have much time in the play, so he met with everyone and invited the main members of the crew to have a meal. It was a meeting with everyone, and then he left the crew because he was going to The Olympic team reports and participates in a warm-up match for the Olympic team.

This time Yin Jun is one of the four international players recruited by the Olympic team. He really wants the system to make a setting so that the Olympic team will no longer recruit him.After all, for him, the Olympic team's game is really meaningless.

While Yin Jun was having dinner with the crew, a World Cup knockout match was held, which caused an uproar in the world football world: the host Korean team beat Italy 2:1!
If it's a normal game, then it's fine, at most it's a super upset.But on the issue, the referee played a very dishonorable role in this game, and it can be said that he directed the outcome of this game.
