Reborn on top of football

The second half of the game was still very smooth. Whether it was attack or defense, whether it was coordination or tactics, the Malaysian team was far behind the Chinese team.After all, no matter what, the Chinese team is the first in Asia, and the Malaysian team has always been the third in Asia. The advantage of the home court and the host country cannot bridge this gap.Especially when the Chinese team is ready to fight.

The final score of 6:0 more accurately reflects the strength gap between the two sides.

At the press conference after the game, the Malaysian reporters were very enthusiastic and asked a series of questions that had nothing to do with the game. Wang Ai also listened with a smile, and said the easy answer directly, and the attitude of the difficult answer Also very sincere.For example, Malaysian journalists are also concerned about Wang Ai's transfer rumors, asking him about the transfer fee and where he will go.Although these things have little to do with Malaysia, the problem is that Malaysia is not a football power, nor is it an economic, political, or military power, a typical developing country.This kind of country usually extends to the outside world when there are not many outstanding figures in the country. For example, it is proud of the outstanding figures of China, Japan, and South Korea.Of course, the premise is that these characters cannot be disrespectful to Malaysia.

Coincidentally, Wang Ai himself has always had a good impression of Malaysia, and Malaysian society has always had a good impression of Wang Ai, probably because there are many Chinese in Malaysia.One third of Wang Ai's advertising fees earned in Southeast Asia every year comes from Malaysia.Wang Ai is now also the spokesperson of Bank of Malaysia. In this way, Malaysian reporters always feel like "one of their own" when they see Wang Ai.

Wang Ai smiled when he heard this question: "It's not good to say, and I can't say it now. Please be considerate of this. But no matter where I go, I can't forget the enthusiasm of Malaysian fans. Everyone's enthusiasm is to support me. Motivation to go further in football."

The reporters in the audience applauded loudly, and old Ali shrugged secretly.He couldn't reach Wang Ai's current level when he was the most glorious back then, so this post-match press conference was abruptly turned into Wang Ai's personal press conference, and he could only bear it.

Another reporter asked Wang Ai to comment on the performance of the Malaysian national team. Wang Ai said very enthusiastically: "The Malaysian national team does have a certain strength gap with us, just like the strength of the Chinese national team compared with many European national teams. The gap is the same. But what I admire is that the Malaysian national team has done the best under the existing conditions. The coach is flexible and the players work hard. There are always winners and losers on the football field, but the love and devotion to football are the most important. Most inspiring."

Seeing the attitude of the reporters who clearly thought that Wang Ai was deliberately saying nice words, Wang Ai had to add: "Football is just a game after all, and the national team represents the highest level of a country's game. But the essence of the game is not Only winning or losing, football can shape people's cheerful character, healthy body, and strong will. I can feel a very pure love for football in Malaysia. Objectively speaking, this love is far more than Results are more important. Because any group of strong players will eventually retire, and the love of football in the society is the vitality that supports the long-term development of this sport. Even I will be very happy when I am in it .”

"Then would you consider moving to Malaysia?" A reporter asked loudly.

Wang Ai laughed out loud, and immediately waved his hands again: "No, no, everyone, don't get me wrong, I'm not laughing because I look down on the Malaysian league or Malaysian football, but..."

Speaking of this, Wang Ai shook his head dumbfoundingly: "Professional clubs in Malaysia may not be able to pay my transfer fee, and I don't have the ability to demand the club's business operations."

The reporters knew that Wang Ai was telling the truth, so they laughed heartlessly.Many third world countries are good at this point, and they don’t think it’s a humiliation like China’s ancestors, they tend to take this kind of thing very lightly.

Wang Ai added: "And I objectively say that even if the Malaysian professional football club buys me, it may be a business that loses money. Because my worth alone may exceed the entire team, but my personal strength cannot More than an entire team. Therefore, regardless of my subjective wishes, this matter is not only financially unsupportable to the team, but also competitively unnecessary. In other words, the Malaysian League actually does not need me.”

"What about your personal thoughts?" Seeing that Wang Ai was so talkative, the Malaysian journalists were also aroused and kept asking questions.

Wang Ai spread his hands: "Personally, I am willing to play for any fan who likes me. Whether it is in Europe or Asia, China or Malaysia, it doesn't make much difference to me. The fans' cheers are my best. Compensation. It’s just difficult to achieve in reality, but if I have time in the future, I will try to come to Malaysia as much as possible to meet and interact with everyone. To be honest, I like Malaysia very much. The weather, culture, and atmosphere here are very Very comfortable."

After a lively press conference, Wang Ai and Ali Hahn came out together and boarded the bus waiting for the teammates. Zhao Xuri watched the live broadcast on Wang Ai's small TV and saw Wang Ai back. Called: "I heard that you are going to transfer to Malaysia?"

"Why, look down on Malaysia?" Wang Ai sat down next to Zhao Xuri, and the driver in front of him started the car. Wang Aicai said, "I tell you, don't think I'm hypocritical. A large part of what I say is the truth. I really I like this laid-back country, but it doesn't mean I really think about playing football. Besides, you can't just play football if you want to be an international superstar."

Several companions in the front row also turned their heads to listen to Wang Ai. Wang Ai simply said: "What is the difference between a good player and a star? It depends on whether you earn wages or advertising fees. We big guys are more or less Advertising fees, but why do some people have tens of millions a year, and some people hundreds of thousands a year? Is it just the performance of the stadium? No!"

Hearing about making money, more people pricked up their ears, and those who were close simply moved over. Everyone knew that Wang Ai was the money-absorbing king, and the advertising fees he earned in one year alone could not be matched by the national team. a fraction.So don't care if you are sincerely convinced or not, and you can't stand the temptation of the halo of success.

"Why do advertisers ask you to be the endorser and not others? The performance on the court is hard power, but the performance off the court cannot be ignored. It is soft power." Wang Ai looked at his teammates and said: "Hard power supports you to reach a level. The threshold of popularity. For example, you are the main force of the national team, you are the main striker, and you have broken many records. These are the thresholds. But crossing this threshold does not mean that your money will be maximized.”

"Then how to maximize it?" Zhao Xuri asked.
