Section 914 Arrival in South Africa

There are often various funny scenes in variety shows, which leave a deep impression on the audience and make them not forget it for a long time. But in fact, if you want to say that the most impressive shots, it is not this kind of funny shots, but those pink scenes that are accidentally developed in the show that can stand the test of time the most.

On the one hand, scarcity is expensive, there are too many funny scenes in variety shows, but there are far fewer pink scenes, which can not be edited, of course, they are all high-quality finishing touches; On the other hand, because of the sense of contrast, in the full funny atmosphere, those pink shots with different feelings will look more abrupt. The same clip is not even third-rate if it is put in a bloody TV series, but it can be put into a variety show with a completely different overall atmosphere, it is completely different.

For example, in "X-man", Kim Jong Kook said "Of course" after covering Yoon Eun-hye's ears, such as the scene where Alex washes Shin Ae's feet in "We Are Married"; For example, the interaction between Lee Hyo-ri and Kim Jong Kook that should have appeared in "The Birth of a Family" but did not happen because of Lee Kyung-won's interference; Another example is the pink pairing of Gary and Song Jihyo in "RunningMan".

These ambiguous shots are always mentioned by the audience, and they are inevitably to occupy the top position in the instant search charts.

And today, the audience has another scene to recall. That's Jessica's kiss to Lee Kyung-won.

The whole process was filmed by the camera of the 'I knot' program group, and it can also be divided into the lens of variety shows.

First of all, this is a mouth-to-mouth kiss, not a cheek kiss that doesn't look good. This alone has already doomed the rarity of this shot, you must know that in the past history, only a few other couples who were also regular guests of 'I knot' have done similar behaviors, and not every couple will do it.

Moreover, the atmosphere at the scene is not the same, even if other couples can kiss. Definitely not in public. But the pair of Li Jingyuan and Jessica completed this act in the parking lot of the airport under the watchful eyes of many artists, which can be said to be unprecedented.

In addition to the peculiarities of the scene, the meaning of this kiss is also very different.

Jiang Hudong used the name 'Kiss of Victory' when inciting Jessica. Although for the time being, this title is still unrealistic, but after the end of the World Cup, the audience has to admit that this 'victory kiss' is too apt when they look back.

The results of the Korean team are good, and the players are playing very well. Among the many team members, the most outstanding performance is Li Jingyuan. It is precisely because of his efforts to turn the tide at critical moments. This allowed the Korean team to get better results than before.

Li Jingyuan can play so well, what is the reason for this? For the average viewer, they don't think about the technical and tactical aspects, but instead focus on the aspects that they are more interested in.

Well, it was because of Jessica's kiss at the airport that Lee Kyung-won was extremely motivated, which allowed him to make a wonderful performance, and at the same time, the Korean team got greater benefits. You don't need to be guided. Fans and fans came up with such an answer on their own, and in this line of thinking, it is only natural that Jessica's kiss is seen as a 'kiss of victory'.

There are two sides to everything. Jessica's kiss won the favor of many people. Will anyone be blind to it?

Not really.

It's a coincidence. If it had been placed in the past, or if there was no such thing as the World Realm Cup, then the kiss between Jessica and Li Jingyuan would definitely be resisted by countless people.

Li Jingyuan's fans are a little better, but there is no guarantee that there will be one or two female fans who will say things like 'what qualifications do you have to be the other half of our OPPA'. …,

Not to mention the fans on Jessica's side. Rarely, there will be a large group of otaku who have nothing to do after eating, and splash dirty water on Li Jingyuan.

But after the World Cup, the situation is completely different. Li Jingyuan got the name of a 'hero' with his performance, and at this time, he poured dirty water on him, and without Li Jingyuan himself reacting, those Antis would be suppressed by the people of the whole country.

It's the same with Jessica, although her fame hasn't changed much from before the World Cup, but she also gave out the 'Kiss of Victory'. Considering the luck she brings. The fans on Li Jingyuan's side have nothing to say.

If there would still be fans obstructing the two of them before the World Lu World Cup, then after the World Lu World Cup, this obstruction has completely disappeared, and it has been replaced by the blessings of countless people.

'Heroes' and 'Goddesses of Victory' are best placed together, and they should be separated and let them find something else. It's awkward for everyone. Just like Lee Hyori in reality found a beast man, although fans can understand it, they still can't accept it.

Of course, these are all things after the World Cup, and they haven't happened yet, so let's stop here for the time being.

Under the greeting of his teammates, Li Jingyuan hurriedly greeted the friends who came to see him off, and greeted the girls of Girls' Generation back to say a few words, and immediately ran back to the team after saying goodbye.

In the eyes of everyone, Li Jingyuan stepped on the plane with his teammates and flew to South Africa with the expectations of countless people.

South Korea did not have direct flights to South Africa because the distance between the two places was so long that tourists going to South Africa had to make connections along the way.

This time, the situation was a little different, and in order to minimize the consumption on the road and keep the team members in good condition, the Korean National Airlines made temporary adjustments.

A charter flight was provided to prepare the most comfortable means of transport for the players and staff of the national team. Then the range was adjusted, although the plane still had to land once in the middle, but at this time there was no need to transfer to another plane, and there was no need to go to the airport hall to transfer, everyone just stayed on the plane, and waited for the plane to fill up with fuel to take off again, which saved a lot of standby time, plus the adjustment of the route, and the result of this flight down. It takes almost an hour less than a regular route.

Originally supposed to spend a day and a night on the plane, after adjustments, it only took 15 hours to reach South Africa.

The departure time was around 10 a.m., which was 2 a.m. in South Africa. So after a fifteen-hour flight, the South Korean national team arrived in South Africa at exactly 5 p.m. local time, which is a relatively comfortable time.

In less than a week, the World Cup will officially begin. It's already the beginning of June, and the northern hemisphere is getting hotter and hotter summer, and South Africa is located in the southernmost part of Africa, so it's winter. And it's getting colder and colder.

Staying on the plane, he didn't feel it, but as soon as he got off the plane, Li Jingyuan immediately felt the difference in climate. Fortunately, I have made preparations in advance, not only put on the inner clothes prepared by the girls, but also put on a set of winter training clothes issued by the national team, so I am not afraid of the cold of South Africa at all.

It was already afternoon when I arrived, and I had to get jet lag, so I couldn't start acclimatization right away. Following the local arrangements for the reception staff, the members of the Korean team checked into the hotel where they had booked Hao Lu and did not arrange anything else. Everyone put their minds on adjusting for jet lag for the first time.

After all, they are all professional athletes, and the only guy who is not a professional player doesn't have to worry, his physical fitness is stronger than that of a professional player, so after a night of adjustment, these players have already reversed the jet lag, and the only little awkwardness left will not affect the training at all. …,

The main thing is to adapt to the local winter climate.

This may seem like a difficult task, but it is not difficult to carry out in practice. It's not a surprise for the players to play in the winter.

Especially the players who played in the Europa League, they adapted faster. On the one hand, because of their quality, and on the other hand, because of the cooler winter temperatures in Europe. For example, Park Ji-sung. The Premier League he plays in has no downtime, and when he plays in the Champions League or the League Cup, he often flies to play in the snow and ice of Russia, and now this cold is not a problem for him at all.

Of course, not everyone is without trouble. There are so many people, there are always one or two who have a headache and brain fever. For example, Li Dongguo. Unfortunately, he caught a cold, but fortunately, the situation was not serious, and there was an accompanying team doctor by his side, so he just showed a sign and was treated immediately, just after a delay of two days, he could fully recover before the official game, and it would not affect the game at all.

The tournament is just a few days away. In order to conserve physical strength, it is also necessary to avoid the trouble of injury and attrition at this most critical moment, and the intensity of training will naturally not be too high. Correspondingly, the training time will not be too long.

In addition to training, the players have a lot of free time every day.

Of course, not all of this free time will be allocated by the players themselves. After all, it's the eve of the big war, and in addition to being physically prepared, you also need to be mentally prepared.

Watching the video, doing the analysis, studying the opponent, that's another task for the players outside of training.

The more discussions there are, the more tense an atmosphere will inevitably form. It is true that the necessary tension should be maintained before the big war, but then again, it is not a good thing to be too nervous.

At this time, Li Jingyuan, a 'special element', once again played an unexpected role and made the coaching staff experience an unexpected surprise.

To relieve the pressure on the players, this is a problem that the coaching staff has long thought of, and in order to achieve this goal, they have also made some plans and arrangements in advance.

Let's not mention whether these arrangements are effective or not, the key is that after there is such a variable as Li Jingyuan, the arrangements of the coaching staff are not used at all.

is not a professional player, Li Jingyuan's understanding of tactics is not as good as others, and tactical literacy is not something that can be made up in a few days, so when treating Li Jingyuan, the coaching staff did not put forward too many requirements. In other words, Li Jingyuan doesn't need to study and analyze by himself, and when the time comes, he just needs to play under the arrangement of the coaching staff and follow the command to play the game.

There is no need to study tactics or analyze opponents, Li Jingyuan is completely an idler after training.

After having free time, Li Jingyuan also wanted to take time to go outside the hotel to experience the local customs of South Africa.

However, considering that the local security situation in South Africa is not very good, smashing and looting incidents are commonplace. After going out, he may encounter an accident, so Li Jingyuan had to dispel the idea of going out. And for the same reason, the national team has also set rules that do not allow players to go out at will. Public and private. couldn't find a reason to go out, and in desperation, Li Jingyuan could only waste his excess energy in the hotel.

Looking for a woman, not to mention that the team does not allow it, Li Jingyuan himself will not do it. Food, on the eve of the war, you must ensure the state, of course, you can't eat and drink nonsense. Nightclub in the hotel. The Korean team had already stopped after moving in, and even if there were, Li Jingyuan himself would not go, he didn't like the noisy and flashy atmosphere. …,

Well, Li Jingyuan can only use games to pass the time.

In the beginning, he was just playing single-player games on his own computer. But later, it was a bit boring to play alone, so he pulled the other teammates in. Played online games together.

Of course, not everyone is a fan of video games. So after playing twice, Li Jingyuan felt a little inappropriate. He wanted to come up with a little game that everyone could participate in.

It is said that many players have a common habit, that is, to watch Korean variety shows in their spare time. This is especially true for those overseas players, such as Park Ji-sung, who often downloads shows on the Internet when he is resting, which has been confirmed by him in the historical "RunningMan".

When it comes to variety shows, that is Li Jingyuan's forte, you must know that he is the initiator of wild variety shows, and the most popular shows of these players are planned by him.

With this kind of planning power, it's not easy to come up with a few mini-games. Not much to say, Li Jingyuan immediately combined the characteristics of the players. Came up with a couple of mini-games that fit their professions.

More or less, football is used as a prop, which is not only agreed by the players, but also by the coaching staff. In the eyes of the coaching staff, these small games that use football as props can not only adjust the atmosphere of the team, but also the game itself can be regarded as an alternative training.

I took the mini-games that appeared in the show and made changes. Li Jingyuan even acted as a liaison and involved the artists in the show.

At the beginning, I just contacted the girls of Girls' Generation, but later, at the strong request of the players, Li Jingyuan had to make countless calls for them and contact their respective idols.

For example, Kim Tae-hee, such as Lee Hyo-ri, such as Lee Young-ae, many beauties have been harassed by Lee Kyung-won, although they may only chat for a few minutes after getting in touch, but they still made a phone call. Later, when he was annoyed, Li Jingyuan simply gathered everyone together and set up a special chat room, where the artists and players held a chat meeting.

Because this chat room is not open to the public, the players and artists have a lot less scruples, not only chatting, but also shooting a lot of videos and uploading them to have fun together.

The players uploaded training videos, which are not 'top secret', but are still very new to the artists. The artists uploaded some behind-the-scenes footage and slice of life, which was also a novelty for the players.

The two sides just communicated back and forth, and soon a good atmosphere was formed, and many people became good friends under this atmosphere. Well, it can't be denied that there are many kinds of friend relationships, and netizens are also one of them.

After becoming friends, the two sides became more connected. For example, Yuna and the others contacted Lee Kyung-won when they participated in the filming of "Strong Heart", and some other artists would occasionally call during the trip. Anyway, as long as it's not during training time, these players will be very cooperative to play a temporary role with their voices, which can be regarded as a little bit of the feeling of being an artist.

As long as the phone is connected, the artists can take advantage of the players' light and get a lot of shots in the show, and the players can also get cheers and cheers from the artists and audiences on the show, so as to get more motivation. For example, in the program "Starking", UEE contacted Li Qinglong once, and Uee became the top of the instant search list at that time, and Li Qinglong himself also received strong support from Jiang Hudong, the host, as well as the guests and the audience.

Overall, with Lee Kyung-won's variable, the South Korean players have found a number of ways to decompress that didn't exist before, and these methods themselves completely exceeded the expectations of the coaching staff, but the results were also surprisingly good, and they also exceeded the expectations of the coaching staff.

What else can be said? It's too late to rejoice. Instead of stopping it, the coaching staff gave the green light to the behavior.

In this way, the training was completed, the players' bodies were adjusted, and the players' psychological state became better and better through the contact and interaction with the artists. The body and mind are ready, and the preparation of the Korean team can be said to have been done to the extreme.

After a few days of buffer period, on June 11, the quadrennial World Cup officially began. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
