Chapter Seventy-Nine: The British Press
After the draw for the third round of the Champions League was announced, the British media began to play their tradition of being good at creativity (making things up), and kept thinking divergently to write stories for Wu Jie.
"The Chinese genius team fought hard, and the coach almost died!"
That's what Reuters reported ahead of Bayern's visit.
Well, how to say it?
Sure enough, it's still a taste!
But how is this report written, simply put, after Bayern played Bayern's Leverkusen game, the next day when the whole team had lunch together, Wu Jie and team leader Rummenigge had a conflict again.
According to Reuters, the reason for this incident was that the whole Bayern team was watching a TV series together, and Wu Jie thought the TV series was too boring because he didn't understand German culture, and said some barbaric and rude things.
Rummenigge reminded Wu Jie not to say this, and the two immediately quarreled, and soon became very emotional, and eventually got into a big fight in the restaurant.
Chernay saw all this at the time, and the Bayern coach suffered a heart attack in anger and was taken to the hospital on the spot.
Finally, the main point is that the main purpose of this article in "Reuters" is: Wu Jie's unreasonable barbarism almost killed head coach Chernaui!
But there is a problem they didn't consider at all, Wu Jie doesn't know German, watch your sister's German TV series!
But is that the end of it?
That's a big mistake!
The BBC's contemporaneous report was - "Breitner slaps Chinese genius"!
Wu Jie saw this latest news after getting off the plane, and he didn't know how to find the angle of the picture on it, he really looked like he had been slapped in the face.
"Isn't that what I pinched your face the other day?"
Breitner also saw the news, and then thought about it for a long time before remembering it.
This seems to be before the game against Cologne, he deliberately stepped forward and pinched Wu Jie's little face when the CCTV crew was filming.
But from the perspective of this photo, especially after being deliberately led to a "slap", it is indeed easy to see that he slapped Wu Jie with a big mouth.
"The British are really ...... As always, I like to spread rumors! ”
Breitner had nothing to say, and this kind of rumor-mongering was also done by the British.
He didn't know that Wu Jie was secretly complaining in his heart: "The German media is a little stronger, Lao Tzu only saw the German media report on China's fried monkeys out of nothing last week." ”
The report of the German Press Agency seemed to treat China as an aggressor, portraying monkeys as victims of invasion, and the whole report was full of disregard for facts, reversal of black and white, and nonsense.
Therefore, Wu Jie has no good impression of the German media, he can see similar reports several times a month, and some people even call for the adoption of those little monkeys who have lost their homes and relatives under the fire of the flower planters.
This kind of voice made Wu Jie disgusting, when the United States invaded, no one took pity on those homeless monkeys, and no one wanted to adopt any little monkeys.
It's only been a few years, can the double standard be a little naked?
However, if you think about it carefully, you should understand that even the relatively serious German media have this virtue when reporting on flower growers, so the British media will not take off!
After Wu Jie stayed in the hotel, except for training with the team, he never left the building again, saving himself from being deliberately hit by a British woman, and was written as X harassment by the British media the next day.
But at the pre-match press conference of the two teams, the British media still let Wu Jie have a good look.
They have long been more than just double standards, they are simply creating news.
"Wu, do you know that your country is invading a sovereign state?"
"Wu, the army of the flower growers made canned food from the human flesh of prisoners of war, is this true?"
"Wu, why do rabbits love to eat human flesh and baby rice, is this the secret of your success?"
“……”
Wu Jie listened to these "Arabian Nights" questions (all of them were reported by foreign media, and even more outrageous), and he really didn't even have the mood to refute the rumors.
It's as outrageous as if someone is still asking you "Does China have roads", "Does China have electricity", "Does China have cars?" forty years later, how would you answer this kind of question?
"The first problem is that we are the ones who are being invaded. The second question is that this is outright rumor-mongering. The third question, this is also a sinister smear, the TM you are talking about is claypot rice! ”
Wu Jie couldn't help but smile when asked, but he couldn't help but explain this rumor, although he knew that no one would report his refutation of the rumor.
These rumors will continue to spread for decades, and more new tricks will emerge during this time.
Just imagine, a white or black person who has been receiving such news information since childhood, of course they will have a very negative impression of the flower planter.
That's why in the future, there will be so many Europeans and Americans with a high level of education, and they will still take these things that can't stand up to scrutiny as real things.
This is the power of media brainwashing, or rather, these people don't care if it's true or not.
This kind of news is nothing more than them enjoying a sense of superiority and talking about your topic with a high posture.
When China completes its comprehensive rejuvenation and surpasses the West in an all-round way, this sense of superiority will naturally not be maintained.
But it will take time, it will take generations to struggle.
China's transformation from the world's No. 1 to the sick man of East Asia has been a process that has lasted for hundreds of years.
If China wants to fully rejuvenate and return to the world's first place, it will not be a task that can be completed in a short time.
However, this is an inevitable stage for China's rejuvenation, and it is also a task left over from history.
If you can't solve the troubles left by your predecessors, you won't be able to reach the heights that your ancestors once had.
So this is really the best of times, but it is also the worst of times, and it is destined to carry the weight of countless people.
"Sports", this should be the easiest task on the road to revival, right?
After Wu Jie left the pre-match press conference, it suddenly occurred to him that what he was doing now should be the easiest part of China's rejuvenation.
Is there an easier job for China's rejuvenation than engaging in sports?
Wu Jie felt that there was no more, but this simplest task was the worst.
He must not let Chinese sports in this plane drag back again, especially Chinese football.
Wu Jie came to the lounge and thought about it carefully, the British media's pre-game focus did not seem to be on the game, but this was also their cleverness.
If it were a normal situation, these news and rumors would definitely have a big impact on an 18-year-old Chinese player.
But they are destined to be disappointed, Wu Jie will not be unbalanced because of these things, because he doesn't know how many similar reports he has read.
He probably knows the face of the Western media better than the West itself.
So when this happens, the best solution is to go to the court and slap it in the face!
"Nottingham are different from the average English team who are good at playing long balls and rushing, they are two different from Liverpool, both teams are like attacking on the ground, they are good at playing on the ground, and we can't take their passing penetration lightly."
Chernaui re-emphasised the defensive set-up before the game, and when it comes to English football in the past few years, the stereotype of "long pass rushing" immediately pops up.
But that impression is outdated, with Liverpool and Nottingham Forest winning four Champions League trophies in a row for League One, and if you think they're just going to play high, it's been a few years since you saw a game.
At this time, Liverpool and Nottingham were very different from England in terms of playing style, and both teams were very advocating ground attack, not only passing and controlling the ball not inferior to La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A strong teams, but also retaining some of the characteristics of long passing.
As a result, England's teams have been extremely impactful in the Champions League, always finding a way to find a way to find the back of the net.
In general, the English team in this period is technically thick and fine, with strong impact in the frontcourt, passing and ball control in the midfield, fierce defense at the back, active overall running, and high efficiency in defensive counterattacks.
"Did you notice, they didn't mow the turf before the game, they didn't water the turf, which shows that they were more afraid of our ground attack!"
Wu Jie expressed his opinion for the first time at the pre-war meeting, and when he stepped on the field to adapt to the venue yesterday, he found that the Nottinghams were playing this little trick.
"This shows that they are afraid of us and dare not attack us!"
Breitner laughed loudly, everyone knows what this kind of trick means.
"I mean, since they're scared to play ground attacks with us, there's a good chance they'll go back to the old tradition of English teams, and they're probably going to play long balls today."
Wu Jie's words made Chernay also fall into thought, this is indeed something that is possible.
"No matter what tactics the Nottinghams play, we have advantages in technique, passing, and defense, and as long as we play these advantages, we don't need to worry about what the Nottinghams think."
Although Chernay felt that Wu Jie's words were reasonable, Bayern's tactics for this battle had already been determined.
That is to control the midfield, to be fast and efficient when attacking, to be fierce and aggressive when defending, and most importantly to give the ball to Wu Jie at every opportunity.
Football and basketball are played in the end, no matter what tactics depend on the individual ability of the players.
Chernaui now understands this very well, and what Bayern can achieve in the next few years is mainly to see whether Wu Jie can maintain the phenomenal level of this period.
As for the others, as long as it doesn't become a shortcoming of the team and a breakthrough, it's at most a icing on the cake.
