Volume 4 Chapter 10 The Journey Begins
On a piece of glass, Mark Qin drew a small figure with a black pen, and then the villain immediately moved like an animation, and a black tiled house appeared, which was a Beijing hutong.
Then a plane roared up, the outline of England's territory appeared, and another ball appeared, and several wonderful moments of Mackin winning the championship finally ended with one line: no impossible.
"I was an orphan, when I was 11 years old, I was standing in the hutongs of Beijing, and then I flew over the whole of Eurasia, more than 5,000 miles to Liverpool, so you can see the rest of the story, the U12, the U16 reserves, the first team, the European golden boy, the world golden ball, nothing is impossible"
Another similar commercial is Messi's childhood illness, which is of course Adidas' ink pen animation campaign, which has been filmed with the NBA's Arenas and Beckham's version of the sinner.
Today is the same day that Messi and Mackin appeared on the same day, and since the morning, the main TV stations in various countries that broadcast the World Cup have been playing these two commercials on a loop.
And the advertisement that made Mack Qin occupy the office buildings in the streets and alleys of China is: Mark Qin invites you to watch the World Cup series on Tencent.com.
This is also the first time that the domestic Internet has used football superstars for advertising, and it is said that Danube Sports has negotiated a sky-high price for Mackqin's online endorsement during the World Cup!
And Tencent Sports special reporter Ramiro interviewed Mackin the previous month.
"South Africa, I'm coming! I grew up in China, and the most memorable time for the World Cup was when the Chinese team qualified in 2002, and in the world of football, the World Cup represents the highest hall."
"The England national team is different from the club, I have won a lot of honours at the club, but the national team is still zero at the moment, this is a different battlefield"
On the other field that just finished the game, Messi also gave a post-match interview, and Maradona's team won by one goal.
"I don't care if I score or not, the important thing is that the team wins, Maradona is a great coach and he will lead us to success"
"Mark? He's a great superstar but I'm going to put all my energy on my team and it's not my focus on who scores the most goals."
But the media doesn't think so, their individual performances last season were too close, and the World Cup performance will be the final weight for their final battle for the Ballon d'Or.
"Maybe, but I know Mark really wants to win the Ballon d'Or," Lineker laughed in the studio.
Sitting next to him today are Wilson and Gary Neville, with more than two hours to go for England's game.
"England haven't released their starting XI so far, does Capello have any concerns?" , Lineker continued.
"The performance in the warm-up games was not satisfactory to Capello", said Wilson, "and the first game is crucial, the United States are the main opponents in this group of England, Capello may be a little undecided about a few positions, or want to give his players some sense of urgency"
Neville nodded, "The goalkeeper is an old problem, and the departure of central defender Leo (Ferdinand) due to injury will also make Capello's partner a lot of headaches, and the most important thing is Mark and Rooney in the midfield, and the warm-up game is average"
"Does Capello have the courage to substitute them?" Lineker asked, "These two are England's trump cards."
Wilson and Gary Neville both shook their heads firmly and denied, "No, if he loses, Capello will be drowned in saliva, he won't take this risk, just like Argentina's Messi, they will definitely play"
"Actually, I have a question," Lineker continued, "Rooney didn't find a sense of scoring, but Mark is playing a false nine at Liverpool this season, and in England he plays as a playmaker, will Capello change his line-up?" ”
They guessed correctly, the question has been haunted by Capello for a long time, and he still can't make up his mind.
As we said, the changes in a team's system are complex, and it involves a lot of personnel and history.
Liverpool's two strikers and even the whole team can be sacrificed for Mackin but it is obviously not feasible in the national team, let Wayne Rooney play defensive striker? The other three strikers on the bench are gone?
Mark is involved in the midfield when he goes to the front, should he learn from Liverpool to bring Gerrard back, or reuse Carrick?
Carrick is up, which means that there is an attacker in the front court to be replaced, England's style of play has always been 451, if Mack Qin goes up front, it will become 460!
Mack Qin is not Ibrahimovic Ronaldo, he can't play a single center forward in tactical strategy, he can only play the axis, which is a physical limitation, which means that he must have someone around him to carry the defender and cooperate.
Everybody isn't all-rounder, every coach has a different system, you ask Capello to play 460 and he won't.
Wilson shook his head again, "That's something I've been particularly confused about this year, Mark's performance at Liverpool has said it all, but reason tells me it's not feasible in England"
Gary Neville shrugged his shoulders, "I also think so, in England you have to sacrifice part of Mark's talent, not the whole team for him, that is unrealistic and there is no time"
The only consolation for them is that even in midfield, Mackin is still a great midfielder.
Capello ended up adopting the same lineup and style of play as they did in the qualifiers, which they had spent more than a year grinding in, and it took too much boldness to change.
With two hours to go, Capello finally announced his squad for the match:
Goalkeeper: Green
Defenders: Ashley Cole, John Terry, Ledley King, Glen Johnson
Midfielders: Milner, Lampard, Carrick, Mackqin, Gerrard
Striker: Wayne Rooney
"Oh, Barry didn't play, it should be because he just recovered from injury, the teenager Milner played on the left, Capello brought Lennon to why didn't he play, like the qualifiers for Gerrard to the left?"
Lineker was a bit confused about the two changes to the line-up, and Milner didn't have much to do in qualifying.
"Maybe it's because of his running ability, in a World Cup game, a mistake can ruin four years, Capello should choose to be safe," Wilson said.
The England players who just came to the locker room to change their equipment have different moods, like Green, Ledley King, Carrick, Milner, these qualifiers are not the right selection, except for excitement is excitement.
The start of the World Cup, Mackin is also a little moody, after all, it is the World Cup, but starting is a routine operation for him now, and it is big news that he will not start one day!
The Real Bamforden Stadium can only accommodate more than 40,000 spectators, and England fans only receive more than 5,000 tickets, no way, the stadium is too small and has to take care of other fans.
By the time they warmed up, the stands were already full, with an area of the South Stand wearing white Three Lions jerseys and many with the England flag painted on their faces.
When the camera swept over, many fans stood up and shouted: "England, England, South Africa, here we are!" ”
Naturally, there were many celebrities sitting in the VIP seats, such as Prince William of England, Sir Bobby Charlton, and many members of the English Lady Group, although Capello was grounded, but this did not affect their enthusiasm.
The ones who got the most care from the camera were obviously Victoria and Isabella, although David Beckham was in the dugout.
Isabella and Amin sat together, they had just arrived in South Africa yesterday, and Isabella was clearly dressed up like an elf from the forest.
She hasn't forgotten his task to divert attention for Mackqin, and the two warm-up games have not performed well, and there are already voices of doubt coming out.
The Real Bamfken Stadium was unroofed, the entire grandstand was in the open air, and the moment they stepped onto the pitch, there was a sudden uproar, mainly buzzing zula.
"Uh......h Woo......", a shrill sound like a car horn immediately filled the entire stadium, this is really not a good thing, Ma Qin thought to himself.
In his previous life, he would feel upset when he heard it on TV, and in this kind of closed stadium, it would make people feel even more noisy.
But this is the World Cup, the excitement in his heart still overwhelmed the irritability in his ears, the sky is getting late, the lights are on, the temperature is a little cool, he changed into a long-sleeved shirt.
"We see that the players from England and the United States have already started to warm up, and it is now half past seven in the evening local time, and it is already half past one in China," Duan Xuan said.
"Yes", Sun Jihai, who made a cameo, immediately said, "It should be half past one in the morning in China now, and the fans who stayed up late worked hard"
"But it's also worth it to watch Mackqin's first World Cup game, it's the weekend", Duan Xuan said with a smile, "Everyone in the camera just now knows each other, Isabella and his sister"
"Jihai, are you still optimistic about England now", Duan Xuan then asked.
Sun Jihai nodded and said: "After all, after playing there for so many years, I still have some inclinations towards Manchester City and England."
"Manchester City has had a good season, the FA Cup and the League Cup double, if it wasn't for the penultimate round of Arsenal's draw, I'm afraid Benitez would have to repeat the glory of Lord Ferdinand in 99 years"
"Yes, I'm happy for them", Sun Jihai said with a smile, "Mr. Ma robbed our championship, I was embarrassed to say it the last time I saw him, I couldn't watch his last few rounds"
"Haha", Duan Xuan also smiled, "It's really too godly, with an average of two goals per game, it's crazy to get home"
"The golden ball is the golden ball", Sun Jihai shook his head and sighed, "It's hard to imagine that such an excellent player can go out in China"
"I heard that Liverpool wants to buy Zhang Linpeng of Guangzhou Evergrande now, what do you think of Jihai?"
"It's a good opportunity, it's Liverpool, it's good to be able to play rotation, my country's players should go out more......"
Mark Qin stretched his socks, and after passing the ball with his teammates, he slowly ran to the edge of the penalty area to practice shooting.
The camera follows him firmly, he is the only Mr. Golden Ball on the field, and he is the European Golden Boot this season.
However, the record of the youngest goal in the World Cup is destined to be missed by him, Pele's record of 17 years old is estimated to be unbroken, and Mackin will be 19 years old in 5 days.
In the past few days, he has felt a lot lighter, and it seems that the plateau training camp is still effective, and after coming here, he has no adverse reactions to playing intra-team matches in training.
"Bang", a curved ball, "Bang", and another foot, or a curved ball, hit the two dead corners of the goal.
Every kick can be exchanged for warm cheers from the stands, except for American fans, most of the neutral fans come to see the stars, and Mackin is the biggest name on the field!
With the exception of the last group game, the rest of the matches were played at staggered times, which means that more than 200 countries are now broadcasting this match live and following him.
In the commentary that is written in countless languages, there is a warm expectation, just like Brazil's expectation of Ronaldo in '98 and Argentina's expectation of Messi a few hours ago.
Countless England and supporters of England want him to be the next Bobby Charlton, and although it is often wishful thinking, it still gives people hope......
