Before the fight, Ricardo just wanted to train well and try to get back into shape, but Susan's phone call disrupted his plans.

"What? On TV? ”

"Yes," Susanne's always gentle, elegant voice floated out of the earpiece, "I have promised to come down on your behalf, this is a good opportunity for you, after all, it is Globo Sport, 99% of Brazilians will watch this TV program, it will be very helpful to increase your popularity." ”

"Can I say no?" Ricardo asked cautiously, "The training task is tight. ”

Su Shan's laughter is also the kind of laughter that is particularly restrained and gentle, and she will never laugh out loud, "Of course not." I know training is important, for an athlete, training is the foundation of life, but Licardo, you are a professional footballer, playing football is your profession, giving interviews, endorsements, etc. is also part of your profession. ”

Ricardo pondered for a moment. "Okay, when?"

"The night after tomorrow. When are you available? Su Shan asked, "I'll go to your house, and there are some questions that we need to sum up first." ”

Ricardo looked at the time, "Why don't you come over now." ”

Su Shan smiled: "You'd better spare a while, I'll take you to order a decent formal suit." This is not a newspaper interview, this interview column is to be recorded and broadcast for a national audience. ”

Licardo reluctantly agreed: "Okay, I'll leave you all this morning." ”

Susan acted quickly, arriving at Ricardo's residence half an hour later. She was wearing an OL-style suit and short skirt, only wearing light makeup, and she didn't hide the wrinkles on her face at all, but her temperament and her smile made it easy for people to ignore her wrinkles and real age.

After entering the door, she easily greeted Rico, who was playing PS in the living room, sat on the sofa in front of Ricardo, and took out a thick stack of A4 printer paper: "This is the question I predict the host may ask, and I have prepared an answer for you." Of course, you can answer as you wish, but if you want to say anything out of the ordinary, it's best to talk to me. ”

"No problem, you're an expert, I'll listen to you." Ricardo took the printer paper and looked at it carefully.

Su Shan's draft answer was obviously a reference to the style of his past interviews, and it was generally more atmospheric, mediocre and peaceful, and it also added a little wit and humor, which looked good.

Nor did Ricardo think about showing his personality on talk shows. He wants people to know him and remember him through his football, rather than through eye-catching dresses or pretending to be amazing.

"That's it, no problem. I don't have anything else to add. Half an hour later, Ricardo looked up from the paper.

"That's good," Susan put down the lemonade, which seemed to have been poured by Rico. She raised her wrist and looked at her watch, "It's still too late, let's order formal clothes before lunch, and then have a meal together at noon, and then I'll tell you about the interview." ”

Custom-made formal wear was torture, and Ricardo never wanted to go through it a second time. The subsequent lunch was not pleasant, and Su Shan kept babbling in his ear, saying something that should be paid attention to when recording the show; also simulated asking him a question, once he answered a little wrong, Su Shan would look at him with a straight face: "Do you have any intentions?" Being on a TV show is not child's play, this is for a national audience, do you want to make a fool of yourself in front of 200 million people? ”

Fortunately, he had to attend training in the afternoon, so Ricardo had an excuse to escape.

During training, Ricardo noticed that Rico was a little listless. When the training was over and the two stayed to practice, Ricardo asked him, "What's wrong with you, what's going on?" ”

"I'm just a little jealous of you," Rico is a very straight person, "I'm going to be able to be on TV, it's still Universal Sports, oh my God, my dream in this life is the last time I was on Global Sports." I'm 5 years older than you, and I haven't even secured the main position yet. ”

"Isn't your dream to buy a bunch of champagne, fill your bed with dollars, and roll around on dollars with two beautiful women?" ”

"People have a lot of dreams, and this is just one of them," Rico pouted, "I also dream of being with Gisele Bundchen and Adriana. Lima to play with**. ”

Ricardo didn't hold back, and squirted: "Your dream is really great." ”

After laughing for a while, Rico straightened his face and said, "Ricardo, I am different from you, I don't have the same talent as you. Globo Sports doesn't invite me to do talk shows. I'm jealous of you, but you're my friend and I sincerely hope you're doing well. ”

Ricardo was a little touched by what he said: "I know, thank you. ”

"Invite me to a nightclub that night, I'm going to bring two girls back and fight to treat my mental pain."

“…… If you haven't exhausted yourself from this kind of training, I think you can double the amount of training. ”

Rico screamed, "Don't! ”

"I think it's necessary. Don't be verbose, double your training today. Ricardo said coldly.

Brazilians are gifted in football, but always do not cherish this talent. I don't even want to participate in normal training, let alone practice.

Far away, such as Garrincha, never participates in the team's systematic training. There is also Romario, the biggest contributor to winning the 94 World Cup, who can avoid training, and it is rumored that the reason why he left Barcelona is that he can't stand that kind of rigorous training. After returning to Brazil, he focused more on women and beach soccer, and rarely took part in training.

And Ronaldinho, Robinho...... These are all examples of falling from the top prematurely because they don't pay attention to training.

Even Kaka, a good boy, is not so keen on training. And Ronaldo, Ricardo's idol, is not a very diligent person in training.

Rico is also talented, fast, dribbling well, and if he can really stick to the training volume with him and persevere, Ricardo believes he can make a name for himself in football.

Two days passed in a hurry. That night, Licardo, accompanied by Su Shan, appeared at the recording site of the "Star Zero Distance" column of the Brazilian Globo Sports Table.

This is one of the most watched programs on Globo Sports, and almost all of Brazil's most famous stars have appeared on this program.

The general process is for the host to interact with the stars, talk about topics that are not limited to football, and then the stars demonstrate their skills live, usually with a juggling ball. Finally, there are questions from the audience.

Dressed in a freshly made formal suit, Ricardo looked energetic and much more mature than his style on the green field.

After the makeup artist put the finishing touches on him, he took his seat as a guest and made an "OK" gesture to Su Shange, who was sitting in the audience.
