The so-called tall person refers to height. Xiao Yao is one meter eight or six tall, even if he is placed in Europeans, he is not short, but at this time, the group of people who came out of the elevator are obviously taller than Xiao Yao, and they look like they are two meters or even higher.

"I really met our national team!" Seeing the people coming out of the elevator, Sun Tingting, who was on the side, couldn't help but shout.

The group of people who came out of the elevator were all black-haired and yellow-skinned Asians, wearing a full set of sportswear and carrying sports bags, especially the national flag on the left chest of the clothes was very conspicuous. has seen the battle at the door of the hotel, even if Sun Tingting doesn't know it, she knows that these masters are members of the men's national basketball team in China.

This is Italy, and Sun Tingting spoke in Chinese, and the men's basketball players who were walking out of the elevator couldn't help but look curiously.

Xiao Yao has won the MVP of three basketball exhibition games, took promotional photos for the men's and women's national basketball team members, wrote and sang the theme song propaganda song for the Chinese Basketball League, and interviewed the all-star players in the all-star at the beginning of this year. To say that the most well-known acting star among Chinese basketball players is definitely Xiao Yao.

When checking in at the front desk just now, Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting took off their sunglasses, and the men's basketball players did not recognize Sun Tingting at the first time, but someone immediately recognized Xiao Yao.

"Xiao Yao?!" someone said in surprise.

"Hello!" Now that he was recognized, Xiao Yao didn't squirm, and raised his hand with a smile to greet.

Xiao Yao took promotional photos of the men's basketball players seven or eight years ago. Many of the men's basketball players of that year have retired, and even if they have not retired, except for Zhou Qi, they have basically withdrawn from the national team. And Zhou Qi also withdrew from this year's national team due to injury and did not travel with the team. So in this national team, there is no one Xiao Yao is particularly familiar with.

However, most of the players in the national team are also All-Star Game players. Xiao Yao has participated in this year's All-Star, and has also guest interviewed some players and had contact with them, so Xiao Yao is not a complete stranger to them.

"It's really you!" A player who was interviewed by Xiao Yao at the All-Star Game at the beginning of the year smiled and stretched out his hand to Xiao Yao, shook hands with Xiao Yao and touched his shoulder, and then looked at Sun Tingting and said, "This is your girlfriend, right?"

"What a girlfriend, fiancée, someone proposed during the Celebrity Game!" corrected someone next to him.

"What fiancée? Don't you all read the news or Weibo? Everyone has already obtained their certificates, and now they are two people!" the other corrected again.

"Yes, it's my wife now!" Xiao Yao hugged Sun Tingting and smiled, "This is my wife!"

"Hello! I'm Sun Tingting!" Sun Tingting generously raised her hand and greeted, "I wish you good results in this competition, and look forward to you winning glory for the country!"

"Thank you!" said the one who bumped shoulders with Xiao Yao, "You have all come to Italy to cheer us on, you must get a good result!"

Speaking of this, he looked at the suitcases carried by the two of them again, and said to Xiao Yao: "You have just arrived in Italy?

Before Xiao Yao could answer, he heard a familiar voice behind him: "Why are you guys blocked?"

"Brother Yang, we met Xiao Yao, let's have a brief chat. The team member who was talking to Xiao Yao looked up behind Xiao Yao and said.

"Brother Yang?" Xiao Yao looked back and found that Chen Yang was actually standing behind him.

"Xiao Yao?" Chen Yang saw Xiao Yao with a surprised expression on his face.

It turned out that when Xiao Yao was chatting with several team members just now, another elevator reached the first floor. Out of this elevator are Chen Yang, chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, several members of the coaching staff and several other players. Chen Yang came out and saw a group of people blocking the elevator entrance, so he opened his mouth to ask, but he didn't expect Xiao Yao to appear here.

"Duo'er, long time no see!" Chen Yang saw Xiao Yao, but first greeted Sun Tingting beside Xiao Yao.

"Hello Chairman Chen!" Sun Tingting said with a smile.

"What chairman?" Chen Yang glared deliberately, "Call brother!"

"Chairman Chen, are you personally leading the team?" Xiao Yao asked aloud.

Chen Yang hugged Xiao Yao at this time, nodded and said: "Yes, the World Cup is also an international event with a lot of weight, and now the domestic league is also offseason, so there is nothing important, so I will come together!"

"It's you, why are you also in Italy?" Chen Yang looked at the suitcases of the two of them, and continued, "This is just here?"

"It's just arrived!" Xiao Yao nodded, "Duo'er and I came to Italy to take wedding photos, and the hotel that my teacher booked for us has just checked in." ”

"What a coincidence!" Chen Yang smiled and said, "By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet! When I first met you back then, I thought you two could be a couple!"

"The first time you saw us, we were only five years old!" Xiao Yao pretended to be surprised, "You can feel this, it seems that you can not only play ball, but also tell fortunes!"

"Go!" Chen Yang slapped on the top of Xiao Yao's head, "You kid has learned to bury people!"

"By the way," Chen Yang said again, "You're here to take wedding photos, so do you have time to watch the game?"

"Yes," Xiao Yao nodded, "We basically take pictures during the day, and we are free at night to watch the game." Of course, we also wanted to go to see it in person, but we didn't book tickets in advance, and now we don't have tickets on hand. I've asked my teacher to find someone to help us buy tickets, and to see which one we can buy, we'll go to the live show, and watch the rest in the hotel or go to the bar to watch the live broadcast. ”

"Don't bother your teacher!" Chen Yang said, "The organizing committee has allocated some tickets to each team, which are for the relatives and friends of the players to go to the scene to watch the game." This time, we didn't have many family members who came to Italy with us, and we still had tickets left. If you can come, I'll give you a ticket. As long as it's our game, you have to see which one has which. ”

Although the tickets are mainly for the family members of the players, Xiao Yao is a star, and his coming to watch the game is beneficial to attract more domestic audiences to watch the game and increase the team's popularity. As the chairman of the Basketball Association, Chen Yang has the power to give Xiao Yao a ticket, and this matter itself is beneficial to the team, and there is a surplus of tickets, so he naturally has no problem doing so.

"Chen Yang, the bus has arrived!" a middle-aged man in a white polo shirt next to him reminded Chen Yang.

"Okay, you beckon the players to get on the bus first, I'll come right away!" Chen Yang nodded, explained, turned to Xiao Yao and said, "We're going to the stadium for training, you tell me the room number, and I'll talk to you when I come back!"

"Okay!" Xiao Yao nodded and reported his room number.

After Chen Yang and the players of the national team left, Xiao Yao immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed Chen Xuan's number, and informed with a smile: "Tiere, you don't need to help us buy tickets, someone has solved the matter of tickets!"

Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting had no other work arrangements before the wedding, and there was only one thing in the past month, such as taking wedding photos, so Chen Xuan's wedding photo shooting plan for the two of them was also relatively long.

Although I had to shoot in several different cities in Italy, the whole process was planned to take more than 20 days, which was still a lot of time even if I added the cost of traveling to other cities. During this time, the two not only did not have to shoot at night, but the time was relatively free, even during the day, and they did not have shooting tasks every day.

Because of the relatively generous time, and Chen Yang provided tickets for all the games of the Chinese men's basketball team in this tournament, Xiao Yao discussed with Sun Tingting and Chen Xuan, and decided to adjust the shooting plan and itinerary according to the game situation of the Chinese men's basketball team in the future, and strive to watch every game of the Chinese men's basketball team in this men's basketball World Cup.

The reason why it is fought for is because the men's basketball World Cup held in Italy this time has a total of eight divisions, which are held in eight cities in Italy. Although the draw and grouping have been completed, only the grouping of the first stage of the group stage has been determined, and only the three games of the first stage of the group stage of the Chinese men's basketball team have been determined in Milan, and the number of subsequent games, time and venue, and even the number of games are still uncertain.

The format of this year's Men's Basketball World Cup is that the 32 teams that make it to the finals are divided into eight groups for the first stage of the group stage, with the top two teams from each group advancing to the next round of the competition, and the bottom two teams entering the 17th to 32nd place qualifying round. The 16 teams that advance to the next round will be divided into 4 groups according to the results of the first stage of the group stage for the second stage of the group stage. The teams that advance carry the results of the first round, the top two teams in the second group stage advance to the quarterfinals, and the bottom two are ranked between 9 and 16 based on the results of the two rounds. The top eight teams will compete in a cross-elimination format to produce the champion and finish eighth.

According to the format, the top eight teams will need to play a total of eight games in this tournament, while the remaining 24 teams will only need to play a total of five games, and the number of matches will vary.

The men's basketball World Cup held in Italy will have a total of eight regions, that is, a total of eight cities will be played. The eight groups in the first group stage are played in eight different cities, and the second stage of the group stage and the 17th to 32nd place qualifying stage are also played in these eight different cities, and the knockout rounds of the top eight teams are not played in the same city. The grouping or participating teams in the later stage are based on the results of the previous stage of the competition, and the first stage of the group stage has not yet begun, and the time and place of the subsequent teams will naturally not be determined.

Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting's wedding photo shoot plan was filmed in five cities in Italy, of which Milan, Florence and Rome are the host cities of the men's basketball World Cup. Alghero on the island of Sardinia and Venice on the mainland are not the host cities of the men's basketball World Cup.

Although there are still five competition venues that are not in Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting's filming itinerary, Italy's land area is not large, with a total area of more than 300,000 square kilometers, which is about the same as the area of a province in China, and the distance between the eight cities is not too far, and the transportation is relatively convenient.

The men's basketball World Cup game is basically one game in two days, and the game time is basically the evening of local time, and the time schedule of the wedding photo shooting plan is relatively loose, with a lot of room for adjustment, so even if the city of the Chinese men's basketball game is not the city in the wedding photo shooting plan, it is not impossible for Xiao Yao to spend most of the day or even a day temporarily going to another city to watch the game on the spot. It is still very promising to watch all the Chinese men's basketball games on the spot.

Chen Xuan's photography level, ability and influence in the European fashion circle are beyond doubt. Chen Xuan is in charge of everything, Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting don't have to worry about anything except taking pictures, it is naturally very easy.

Due to the relatively loose schedule, even if the matter of going to the scene to watch the game was temporarily added, Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting still had a lot of free time, and the two of them also had a lot of time to go out and play. After this trip to Italy for wedding photo shooting, Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting seemed to have spent their honeymoon in advance, and they had a very comfortable time.

The only thing that made Xiao Yao feel unpleasant was the performance of the Chinese men's basketball team in this World Cup. Whether it is the performance on the field in a few games, or the final result, it is not very satisfactory.

What Xiao Yao watched live was not just the game of the Chinese men's basketball team.

The Chinese men's basketball team played a total of five games, one game in two days, and it took ten days from the beginning to the end of the game. Xiao Yao came to Italy three days before the start of the game, and all the games of the Chinese men's basketball team have been played, and it has only been thirteen days. Xiao Yao came to Italy to take wedding photos, and the plan was to stay for more than 20 days, and the Chinese men's basketball team would return to China after the game.

Xiao Yao later went to the scene to watch two more games, namely the quarterfinals between the United States and France and the final between Spain and Argentina. These two games were tickets that Chen Xuan helped get. After the Chinese men's basketball team did not need Chen Xuan's help, Chen Xuan still played his role in this regard. After watching those two games, Xiao Yao also felt that the performance of the Chinese men's basketball team in this World Cup was unsatisfactory.

After the final between Spain and Argentina, this World Cup is all over. The quarter-finals of the World Cup have a total of eight matches to play. It takes 16 days to complete eight games, and the whole World Cup is 16 days. At this time, Xiao Yao had been in Italy for nineteen days.

A few days after the Basketball World Cup, Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting's wedding photos in Italy were all completed.

By the time the wedding photo shoot in Italy ended, it was late September. Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting did not return to China, but went directly north from Italy, to Germany via Switzerland, and made final preparations for their wedding at the wedding venue.
