Chapter 507: The Japanese Worship the Strong

There was a lot of excitement at the post-match press conference. Because since there have been commercial football competitions in China. Manchester United were the first team to dare to beat the host country to the ground without 'turning it into a human shape', and this game set a record for the highest single-game goal score and goal difference for a foreign team against a Chinese team.

It can be said that before the game ended, it was destined that this game would go down in the history of Chinese football.

Even Manchester United themselves did not expect this game to be played with a big score of 8-1.

Many football people who watched the game were also surprised, they did not expect Manchester United to beat the Chinese Olympic team so badly. According to the traditional thinking of Chinese, don't be so serious about commercial games, you can win, but don't win too much, you have to save some face for the Chinese team......

In the past, Manchester United had come to China for commercial matches on several occasions, and the scores were relatively 'normal'. Unexpectedly, this time, Manchester United would be so ruthless.

What is the change between this Manchester United team and the previous one? Soon, someone found the answer, Manchester United has Yang Fan!

Could this be the reason why Manchester United won this game by a big score? You know, Yang Fan himself scored three goals in the game!

At the post-match press conference, Yang Fan, who was with Ferguson, became the center of attention.

The first thing Yang Fan said surprised everyone.

"In this game, I gave my all, which is the best explanation for those fans who came from afar to watch the game, and it is also a response to the requirements of the Chinese Football Association. ”

What are the requirements of the Chinese Football Association? What are the requirements? So the Football Association is looking for Yang Fan? When did it happen? What did you say?!

"The Football Association approached me and wanted me to be able to take care of the bigger picture in this game. Yang Fan said, "I thought about it, what does it mean to take care of the overall situation, should it be for me to go all out in the game?

The audience was in an uproar.

Although Yang Fan then said these words, China's sports reporters were able to get to the point immediately!

What do you mean?!

The reporters who knew the urine of the Chinese Football Association immediately understood the meaning of this sentence: Isn't this just trying to let Yang Fan release water in the game? !

That's why it's the reason behind it!

Obviously, Yang Fan was furious by the Football Association's approach, and he decided to respond to the Chinese Football Association with goals and excellent performances.

The reporters who consciously figured out the story behind this immediately came to their senses, and they all had a common idea, that is, did the Chinese Football Association show off their brains and dare to ask Yang Fan like this? Who do they think Yang Fan is? So easy to talk to?!

After these two years, Chinese media reporters can be regarded as having a certain understanding of Yang Fan, a real professional player, abiding by professional ethics, loving football, and being very serious on the field!

In addition, considering the bad relationship between Yang Fan and the Football Association, thinking about it with his thighs, he would also think that the Football Association would hit a nail, but he didn't expect Yang Fan's response to be so fierce!

Yang Fan's words at the press conference caused an uproar, and also made the Chinese Football Association once again on the cusp, and the wolf was unbearable.

Yang Fan set such a fire after the game, and then, and then...... He didn't pay any attention to anything!

The day after the game, the United squad left Beijing on a flight to their next destination, Tokyo, Japan.

Yang Fan returned to China for the first time to compete, and it was very successful, winning the cheers of the crowd and satisfying one of his wishes. also left a piece of chicken feathers for Chinese football, he just set fires, regardless of extinguishing the fire, came in style and left in style.

Manchester United have a huge popularity in Asia.

Manchester United's trip to Asia came with a mission.

Affected by the global financial crisis, the American financial and insurance giant AIG previously announced in advance that their sponsorship with Manchester United and he will no longer cooperate with each other after the expiration in May 2010, Manchester United also began to plan ahead to find a new shirt sponsor, this trip to Asia, Manchester United team also came with a mission, that is, to find sponsors for the team. For now, several major consortia from Asia are likely to become new sponsors of the Red Devils, including India's business giant Sahara Group and Saudi Telecom.

In April 2006, AIG, the American financial and insurance giant, announced that it had signed a four-year, £19 million annual shirt sponsorship contract with Manchester United, which was the largest shirt sponsorship project in the history of British football, and the sponsorship period ended in May 2010. Due to the impact of the global financial crisis, AIG itself is difficult to protect, although it will not terminate the sponsorship contract with Manchester United early, but they announced that they will not continue to work with Manchester United after the contract expires. Manchester United's status as a giant, as well as their impressive performances in recent seasons, have made it easy for them to find a new shirt sponsor.

Manchester United is hugely popular in Asia, so almost all of the companies interested in partnering with the Red Devils are from Asia, with India's Sahara Group and Saudi Telecom already having detailed sponsorship packages submitted to Manchester United, as well as South Korean and Malaysian consortia.

Sahara is a sponsor of the Indian cricket team, with the majority of its revenue coming from real estate and financial services. Saudi Telecom, on the other hand, is the largest telecommunications company in the Middle East, monopolizing almost all domestic calls and has a strong presence in Malaysia, Indonesia and South Africa, which have a large number of Manchester United fans. It is reported that the sponsorship contract of Saudi Telecom will reach 25 million pounds per year, which is higher than the current AIG sponsorship fee.

However, in the plans of Manchester United's hierarchy, the Japanese consortium is also among the targets they need to fight.

According to a survey report, Manchester United is the favorite team in Japan. Manchester United have just won the UEFA Champions League this time, and they naturally intend to carry the momentum of the European championship and get a big contract.

However, on the front flight to Tokyo, the Manchester United CEO had a brief exchange with Alex Ferguson, because a Chinese company is also interested in becoming a sponsor of Manchester United.

"I'm worried that Yang's behavior this time will have some bad effects on our development of the Chinese market and this possible cooperation. Jill voiced his worries, he already knew what Yang Fan did in the game: this young man actually fired directly at the Chinese Football Association!

"If that's the case, I guess you don't have to worry. Ferguson said with a smile, "My interpreter in Beijing in the past few days told me that the Chinese Football Association is very unpopular with the fans. And don't you think that Yang's actions did not have a bad impact on him, but were more liked by the fans?"

Jill is also concerned about chaos, hearing Ferguson say this, think about it carefully, it is really like this.

Yang Fan received a grand welcome at the Beijing Workers' Stadium. The Chinese regarded this young man as a national hero.

"I kind of get it. Jill smiled and said, "Yang is regarded as a national hero by Chinese fans, and the Chinese Football Association is the villain. ”

That's what it means. Ferguson said with a red face.

Manchester United received a warm welcome in Tokyo.

Manchester United has a huge popularity in Asia, especially in East Asia.

When Manchester United's flight was about to arrive at the airport, a large number of Manchester United fans had already occupied the airport reception building. The airport authorities have been waiting for a long time, and in the airport parking lot, the bus that came to welcome the Manchester United players was "escorted" by many security guards arm-in-arm.

At 11:03 a.m., Rooney was the first to walk out of the hall and board the bus parked outside the door. Although the surrounding fans kept shouting his name, the little fat man didn't seem to be in high spirits, and immediately plugged in his headphones after finding a random seat.

Afterwards, Manchester United's stars continued to appear, drawing cheers from the audience.

Yang Fan was wearing big sunglasses, a black suit, and headphones, looking very cool, and he didn't pay much attention to the cheers of the Japanese fans, and lowered his head and got on the bus.

His behavior did not arouse the disgust of Japanese fans, but made these people like him even more.

"That's cool!"

"Handsome!"

"Ah, Minako, I can't do it anymore, I love him to death. ”

Japanese female fans let out bursts of screams.

"I must watch the competition the day after tomorrow, thinking of Yang Fan's toned body, I can't help it. ”

"And the tattoo, I would even dream of a man with a tattoo on my back taking possession of me. "A female fan has stars all over her eyes.

Yang Fan didn't know that he was so popular in Japan, and he thought that as a Chinese athlete, it would be difficult for him to have too many fans in Japan.

He didn't know that in the current Manchester United team, Yang Fan can be said to be the second most influential player after Cristiano Ronaldo.

Manchester United's highest-priced signing, Mr. 35 million pounds, and Yang Fan's previous glory in Wolfsburg, two consecutive Bundesliga Golden Boots, League Cup champions, German Cup champions, and European Golden Boots!

These glittering glories have made many Japanese admire Yang Fan!

Japan has a deep-rooted belief in the worship of the strong, so you will understand why after World War II, as soon as the United States occupied Japan, many people in Japan gave up resistance, and even greeted American GIs with their children, so that they confused the American soldiers, is this the national of bushido?

The Japanese are very special, they are a very sad people. Historically contained by China, they have low self-esteem. Desperately studying China, wanting to defeat China, and when they defeated the Qing Dynasty, they were arrogant to the extreme, completely nouveau riche.

They worship the strong, formerly the Tang Dynasty, later England, France, Germany, and finally the United States.

Of course, this is a political topic.

Specific to each field, Japan worships the strong in each field, as long as your appearance is stronger than the Japanese, prove that you are a strong person, the Japanese will put down their proud face and worship you.

Yang Fan is now well-deserved as the No. 1 star in Asia, which even the Japanese, who have always looked down on Chinese players, have to admit. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, Yang Fan went to Europe alone to find his football dream, and after becoming famous in one fell swoop with his hard work and struggle, he is now a top star of the Manchester United team! This story is very inspirational, and Yang Fan's unruly personality has also made him very popular among young people in Japan.

It can even be said that Yang Fan looked cool just now and ignored the Japanese fans, which made these Japanese fans like him more and worship him.

The driver of the bus became the happiest man, he prepared a soccer ball next to him, and the Manchester United star came up and signed his name on the soccer ball. His creativity also caused a "sensation" among the fans, and their "jealousy" could be felt from the screams.

Two days later, Manchester United and Tokyo FC played a warm-up match.

Yang Fan started the game and scored another hat-trick in the game to help Manchester United beat Tokyo FC 5-2.

When he was substituted, the whole stadium burst into loud applause, and many Japanese gave him a standing ovation.

This also made Yang Fan a little dizzy, he was full of strength in this game to abuse the Japanese team, in fact, he also did this, scoring three goals with his head and feet.

I thought that when I was replaced, I would be booed, but I didn't expect to win such applause.

Yang Fan didn't give Japanese fans much smile from beginning to end. Of course, he didn't speak ill of him, and he also cooperated with the club's arrangements for autographs and group photo requests from Japanese fans, which was routine, but other than that, he really didn't have much enthusiasm for the Japanese.

On the contrary, this made some Japanese female fans who liked him even more obsessed with him, thinking that he was too cool.

In less than three days from arrival to Tokyo and departure from Tokyo, Manchester United once again set off a red craze in Japan, and fans wearing red Manchester United shirts could be seen everywhere on the streets.

According to the performance of Manchester United's store in Tokyo, the hottest ones sold in Tokyo are three jerseys, Cristiano Ronaldo's No. 7 jersey, Rooney's No. 10 jersey, and Yang Fan's No. 9 jersey.

Among them, Yang Fan's No. 9 jersey was originally in line with Rooney's jersey sales, but after he scored a hat trick against Tokyo FC, jersey sales increased sharply, and even surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo.

Even Manchester United CEO Gil had to sigh when he saw this scene: "Who would have thought that a Chinese player would be so popular in Japan?"

What happened in Tokyo has also attracted great attention from the Chinese media.

In fact, when Manchester United arrived in Tokyo, a large number of Chinese journalists also arrived, all of whom were going to follow Yang Fan. With Yang Fan's arrival at Manchester United, this has greatly stimulated the Chinese football media, and Yang Fan's every move at Manchester United can arouse great interest among Chinese fans.

Yang Fan travelled to Tokyo with Manchester United to play against a Japanese club, which naturally attracted the attention of Chinese fans.

And through the written and impact records of these media reports, Yang Fan's popularity in Japan was reported domestically, and Chinese fans were first surprised, then excited and proud!

The Chinese football environment is bad and the results are poor, which also makes Chinese football have no status in the world, and the Japanese look down on Chinese football. When the Chinese team meets the Japanese team, the latter is always on his toes. And, to tell the truth, the Japanese footballer is indeed on the right path, and his strength is at least three streets behind Chinese football, and they do have the capital to be proud of.

In such an environment, Yang Fan conquered the Japanese with his personal strength, and even made the young people of Japan worship him so much!

Naturally, this has excited the Chinese media and fans.

Even Xinhua News Agency wrote a report called: Yang Fan, a Chinese star who is admired by young Japanese.

Yang Fan's popularity in China has also exploded again, and Chinese fans are proud of him and proud of him.

At a time when Chinese football is at a low ebb, there is such a young person, so that their passion for football can be released, so that they can find a sense of pride and a reason to be proud!

In Bangkok, Manchester United were also warmly welcomed. As it was once a British colony, the Premier League has a very solid base of people in Thailand. As the hegemon of the Premier League, Manchester United is the favorite team of many Thai fans.

Here, Manchester United enjoyed the treatment of a king.

In the warm-up match against the Thai stars, Manchester United won 4-0.

Yang Fan scored two goals in the game.

In this trip to Asia for Manchester United, Yang Fan scored a hat-trick in two of the three games, scoring twice in one game and scoring eight goals!

That's an average of 2.67 goals per game, which is truly terrifying.

Yang Fan's amazing goal form also made Ferguson very happy, and he is now more and more proud of his decision to make up his mind to win Yang Fan at a sky-high price.

The day after the match against Thailand Stars, Manchester United left Bangkok and returned to England.

They are returning home to prepare for the Charity Shield, a match between last season's Premier League winners and FA Cup winners, effectively the equivalent of La Liga and Serie A's Super Cup.

Manchester United were Premier League champions in 207/2008, while last season's FA Cup winners were Portsmouth. This is the opponent of Manchester United in the Charity Shield.

The Charity Shield is also hailed as a warm-up for the Premier League, as the new season of the Premier League is about to kick off less than a week after this game.

"Premier League, Are You Ready? Yang Fan is Coming!" -- This is the name of a special topic made by a domestic sports portal website when conducting a preview analysis of the Premier League in the new season.

That's right, the curtain of the new season is about to begin, the Premier League, the Champions League, Yang Fan is here!
