Wang Yang quietly observed and studied on the side. 【Read the latest chapters of this book, please search】Being able to see old-timers interviewing football stars is a rare learning opportunity.
Zhang Shunxian was completely chatting with Yang Fan, and the two of them chatted as if they were friends. From Yang Fan's training and competitions in Newcastle, to his life in Newcastle, and even some trivial matters in life, you can talk about it, and Zhang Shunxian also talked about his experience in interviewing and traveling in Europe over the years. Zhang Shunxian, who is in his forties, and Yang Fan, who is 18 years old, actually talk very happily.
The two men chatted for more than an hour. Time passed before you knew it.
Why did you talk for so long in one breath?
It's all because the story Yang Fan tells is so fascinating!
Zhang Shun was the first Chinese journalist to interview Yang Fan, and the first journalist to ask about his past in Newcastle, and Yang Fan was also the first time to tell his story to reporters. This young man seems to be immersed in the days when he came to Newcastle alone, the grinding of the past, in the current Yang Fan's view, less resentment, more cherishing feelings, yes, is cherishing, there is no doubt that those grinding, those experiences, for Yang Fan, this is his wealth.
Through Yang Fan's narration, Zhang Shunxian knew that this ordinary young man, in order to pursue his dream, this journey was difficult and extraordinary. A person came to England alone, came to Newcastle, while working, while looking for a chance to play, the embarrassment of life can not crush the backbone of this young man to pursue his dreams, God seems to be moved by the efforts of this young man, gave him the opportunity to join Newcastle United, hard training, hard play, the table has been unstable, and even once fell into a goal drought of ten games without scoring, and in the team, also faced a lot of difficulties, in their most difficult time, not only to persist in the huge psychological pressure area, but also to face the ridicule and ridicule of some teammates, as well as teasing。
In such a situation, Yang Fan finally broke out, broke out in the game against Arsenal, and completed self-redemption with a hat-trick! The first team manager has also planned to promote him to the first team, but because he does not have a labor certificate, he cannot play for the first team of Newcastle, at this time, the agent Jianyì he went on loan to other teams to look for opportunities, and Newcastle FC is also supportive of this, so Yang Fan joined the Bundesliga team Wolfsburg on loan.
Zhang Shunxian listened completely fascinated, he didn't say much, at this time, he, a reporter, no longer needs to use too many words to construct this interview, he is now at this time, the wisest and most suitable is to be a listener.
Zhang Shunxian is undoubtedly an excellent sports media worker and a qualified listener. At one point, he even imagined the content of the whole story in his mind, and he even imagined himself as the narrator in front of him to feel the whole story.
This is a strong, almost stubborn lad who has worked hard and never given up in search of his football dreams. Whether it is the difficulties of life, the sarcasm of his teammates, or even the difficulties of the media, nothing can stop this young man from persevering in his footsteps!
He came out in the game against Arsenal and then went out of control.
Yang Fan, the whole Chinese lad has even won the favor of the first-team manager, and is ready to call him up to the Newcastle first-team team. Although he was unable to play for Newcastle in the Premier League due to his labor certification, being able to join Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga also means that the young man is officially on the road to success.
After the thorns along the way, the young man began to pick the beautiful flowers!
It's an inspirational story. A touching story. Although it is a bit disrespectful to use the word 'story' to describe other people's experiences, Zhang Shunxian feels this way now, and he has respect for this young man, because this story is so flesh and blood!
Zhang Shunxian was a little lucky, fortunately he came to Wolfsburg for the first time and interviewed Yang Fan, otherwise, he might have missed the most special interview in his working career.
After hearing Yang Fan tell his story, Zhang Shunxian sighed, "It's really not easy." Then he asked the question in his mind, "You really haven't played at a club in your home country?"
"Nope. Yang Fan said affirmatively.
"Why? Your talent should have a chance in China."
"I don't have any money. Yang Fan said, "My father took me to the football school, and they said that the tuition fee would be 100,000 yuan a year. The total savings of our family are only a little more than 30,000 yuan. Speaking of this, Yang Fan smiled innocently, "Dad said that they saved that money for me to marry my daughter-in-law in the future." ”
"Ahh Zhang Shunxian laughed. It's just that this smile is a little unnatural, and he can imagine how helpless the father and son were when they faced the cruel situation of dreams and reality.
"Forgive me for taking the liberty of your studies"
"I haven't interrupted my studies. My dad didn't approve of me dropping out of school. Yang Fan scratched his head, "However, I don't think I'm going to school." It was only on the pitch that I felt so free. I've taken the college entrance examination, and I've only gotten into three, but—" he shrugged, "the tuition fees for three books are too expensive for me, not to mention, all I can think about is playing football." ”
"If you put your football focus on studying, it is definitely not a problem to get into an undergraduate or even a major university. Zhang Shunxian said, this is definitely not a compliment, this is a smart and hard-working young man.
"In that case, you wouldn't be interviewing me here. Yang Fan laughed, "Really, when I played football for the first time, I felt that I was very happy when my feet touched the ball." Later, as I got older, I felt more and more that I could play for my own future. ”
"You're right. Zhang Shunxian said, "Now you already have your own future." ”
"It's still early. Yang Fan smiled shyly, "There is still a long way to go." ”
It was a pleasant, successful interview for both the interviewer and the interviewee.
As for why it was able to suddenly break out after a goal drought in ten games, Yang Fan didn't deliberately explain, and Zhang Shunxian didn't ask, in fact, the sudden outbreak after a long-term goal drought is not uncommon in world football, and this kind of thing is so magical. When it should come, it comes, and when it shouldn't come, it doesn't come after a thousand calls. If a fan reader raises this question, Zhang Shunxian himself will explain it in the report, for example, he has been training hard and has not slackened, and the feeling of scoring suddenly comes.
After the interview, Yang Fan was the host and invited Zhang Shunxian and Wang Yang to dinner, which made the two feel a little embarrassed, but Yang Fan smiled generously and said that he is now playing in Wolfsburg, and he can be regarded as the host, and it is natural for him to be the east.
At the wine table, Yang Fan only drank two beers and didn't continue drinking, but fortunately, with Michael Baker as his company, Mr. Agent had a good amount of alcohol. Seeing this, Zhang Shun nodded secretly, this is a very self-disciplined young man. He is more optimistic about Yang Fan's future.
After dinner, Michael Baker also chatted with Zhang Shunxian for a while. From Zhang Shunxian's mouth, Michael Baker was surprised to learn that although his player Yang Fan only just joined Wolfsburg and did not play a game for Wolfsburg, as long as this exclusive report from the "Ball Daily" comes out, Yang Fan may become the darling of Chinese fans, at least with millions of fans.
This number shocked Michael Baker, and Mr. Agent was already thinking about opening up his market in his home country for Yang Fan.
After dinner, Zhang Shunxian and Wang Yang said goodbye and left.
The two of them didn't expect that this trip to Germany would be so smooth, and their luck was very good. Successfully interviewed Yang Fan, got first-hand information, and established a certain friendship with Yang Fan, compared with the former, Zhang Shunxian values the latter more, which means that he and the "Ball Daily" where he works have been ahead of domestic competitors.
The two looked excited and couldn't wait to return to the hotel.
Zhang Shunxian made a phone call to report the good news to the editor-in-chief, and Wu Yunfeng, the editor-in-chief on the other end of the phone, was also overjoyed, and told Zhang Shunxian to immediately sort out the exclusive report and send it over quickly. Let's see if we can catch up with the fresh release of the "Ball" during the day today, which is Friday.
Now, it is more than midnight in China, Zhang Shunxian knows that his task is arduous, he must hurry to improve the report, send it over, the domestic side must also be busy, need to take down a report, and then, the layout must also be changed, because Yang Fan's interview must be placed on the front page.
Wang Yang helped Zhang Shun make a cup of coffee first, and watched the senior work hard there. This young man is also so excited, he and Zhang Shunxian's interview with Yang Fan is an exclusive interview, and the information obtained is absolutely unique, which is unknown to other media in China!
It's a real scoop!
A sensational scoop!
Zhang Shun wrote on the desk first, he felt sweaty after the war, picked up the cup of coffee that was already cold, and drank it in one gulp. Zhang Shun first looked at the dozen or so pages in his hand. He used to write the manuscript with a pen and paper first, and then type it out on the computer.
"Wang Yang, you type faster than me, hurry up and help me type it, and then send it over quickly, the country is waiting." ”
"Well, okay!" Wang Yang naturally knew that time was pressing, so he quickly took over the manuscript and got busy in front of the computer.
About half an hour later, Wu Yunfeng, the editor-in-chief who was waiting in front of the computer, received the email, and at this time, although it was early in the morning, he still drove to the newspaper office.
Printing out this report, Wu Yunfeng read it from beginning to end.
He slapped the table hard, and it was amazing!
This report is so exciting!
