"Are you playing at Wimbledon, Chu Zhongtian?" The man who was regarded as a neurotic by Chu Zhongtian suddenly asked him in Chinese, and he was stunned for a moment, and he was stunned and did not react.

Xu Xiaodi was very satisfied with Chu Zhongtian's reaction after this sentence was asked, and he felt that he had finally pulled back a game in front of this kid who was fourteen years younger than him.

Chu Zhongtian really had such a thought in his mind - could it be a fan? Damn, was it approached by crazy fans so quickly?

It is said that it is hidden in the city, but is it not deep enough to hide?

Thinking so, the middle-aged man in front of him changed his expression, and was looking at him affectionately, and his mouth was the line in Stephen Chow's classic film "Domestic Ling Ling Paint": "Do you think I won't be able to find you if I hide?" It's useless, a coaxing man like you is like a firefly in the dark everywhere, so distinct, so outstanding. Your melancholy eyes, your embarrassed beard, your miraculous footwork, and that cup of arthur_guinness all fascinated me deeply......"

He shuddered, and came back to his senses from the illusion.

The man in front of him didn't stare at him affectionately and say lines that made his flesh numb that he wanted to spit out all the wine he drank yesterday, but was pretending to drink the beer in his glass as if nothing had happened.

"I'm sorry, I didn't hear you clearly...... "Chu Zhongtian also replied in Chinese.

"It seems that you are really the Chinese student who played at Wimbledon." Hearing that he also answered in his native language, Xu Xiaodi knew that he had found the right person. He really wanted to rush out of the bar and laugh three times now - the emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally let me Xu Xiaodi take the lead!

"Actually, I'm a journalist." Xu Xiaodi took out his press card.

Chu Zhongtian chuckled in his heart-here! Journalists are coming! The journalist is finally here! I'm really famous...... "I'd like to do a short interview with you......"

Seeing that the other party did not respond to his words, Xu Xiaodi continued.

"It won't take you too long. I watched your live broadcast of yesterday's game...... "Xu Xiaodi lied, in fact he only watched the post-match highlights. But in order to get closer to the interviewee, sometimes it's normal to lie. "You're doing awesome!"

Xu Xiaodi said as he observed the reactions of the interviewees, which is a skill that a journalist needs to have. Blindly asking questions about topics of interest regardless of the mood of the interviewee, without considering whether those questions will arouse the disgust of the other party, such a reporter is what Xu Xiaodi hates the most...... Of course, focus interviews are not among the journalists, who have to ask tough questions or be incompetent.

Chu Zhongtian didn't show any disgust, so Xu Xiaodi continued.

"And it's hard to remember that you're a Chinese...... Did you know that the goal you scored yesterday was the first goal scored by a Chinese in the 132-year history of the English FA Cup? Xu Xiaodi said very excitedly, but Chu Zhongtian reacted mediocrely, he just said "oh", and he was not as interested as Xu Xiaodi thought.

Because he knew about this from TV for a long time.

Although Chu Zhongtian's reaction was a little unexpected by Xu Xiaodi, he still had to continue: "So...... You're an international student who played in England's oldest FA Cup, scoring the first goal of Chinese and winning the best ...... It's legendary! There will definitely be a lot of people in the country who are interested in your story......"

Chu Zhongtian suddenly interrupted him when he heard this: "You are a reporter for the Chinese media?" ”

Xu Xiaodi didn't understand why Chu Zhongtian asked this, he thought that Chu Zhongtian already knew this. But he nodded.

"I'm sorry, I can't be interviewed by you." Chu Zhongtian's words were like a thunderbolt from a sunny day, which directly slashed at Xu Xiaodi's head, making him stunned, and he thought he had heard it wrong.

"Huh...... This...... Why is that? Xu Xiaodi asked in surprise. Could it be that I said something wrong? He was fine before he couldn't figure it out, how can he say that if he doesn't accept it, he won't accept it...... Although Chu Zhongtian didn't agree before, he didn't object after all, right?

He knew that he was a bit presumptuous to come and ask for an interview so suddenly - he was not a big-name reporter from those big-name media, he could still accept red envelopes and take a sauna wherever he went, and he had not enjoyed that kind of treatment since graduating from university, so he had never developed the arrogant temperament of a reporter. That's probably why he's still a street reporter.

Chu Zhongtian was embarrassed to tell reporters that he was worried that his mother would call and scold him after seeing it, and then painfully persuaded himself that the "ball" was endless, and he turned back. I must not let my mother know about playing football in the UK, otherwise I will not have good fruit to eat when I return to China, in case my mother is angry and interrupts her living expenses and tuition supply, what if it is good?

This kind of "family ugliness", right? Chinese pay attention to "family ugliness should not be publicized", Chu Zhongtian couldn't say it, he could only find an excuse: "It's related to me, in short, I don't want to be interviewed......"

Xu Xiaodi finally found Chu Zhongtian, why was he willing to give up like this? He guessed the reason why Chu Zhongtian refused to be interviewed, and then explained to him: "Are you worried that your private life will be disturbed after the interview?" I assure you, rest assured, there will be no such worries. The newspaper I work for is a domestic newspaper, and our readers are all domestic readers, and they can't disturb your life. If you are worried about the impact on your family, I can expect you to promise not to ask you questions about your family, not to look into it, not to publish it. My name is Xu Xiaodi, from Changsha, Hunan, this is my press card, this is my business card, there is the phone number of our newspaper on it, if I break my oath, you can ......"

Chu Zhongtian interrupted his assurance. I still don't accept interviews because you are a domestic media...... Chu Zhongtian said in his heart. It's over when my mom sees it!

"No, I can't be interviewed by you anyway."

Xu Xiaodi felt that he had really seen a ghost. finally found the legendary Chu Zhongtian first, but the other party was unwilling to accept his interview, why is this! Is it true that I can only wait for death at this London reporter station that does not know when it will be revoked, waiting for the day when he will be revoked and return to China?

"Can you tell me why?" Xu Xiaodi couldn't figure it out, and the more he couldn't figure it out, the more he wanted to know the reason.

"I'm sorry......" Chu Zhongtian was a little embarrassed, "It's my personal reason, anyway, I can't be interviewed, I'm sorry, it has nothing to do with you, it's my personal reason......"

The drinkers who were drinking and chatting in the bar saw Chu Zhongtian's embarrassed expression, and thought that he was stumped by the stranger who was dancing and shouting just now. Seeing the way they huddle together and whisper in a language they don't understand, they must not be saying something good, right?

So the drinkers, who had been urged by the alcohol, stood up and staggered towards them, one of whom leaned against the bar and deliberately showed the tattoo on his neck.

"Are you in trouble, Chu?" The bald strong man with tattoos stared at Xu Xiaodi and said viciously.

Chu Zhongtian knew that they were all enthusiastic, and he also knew that they could do anything if they drank too much, so he hurriedly played a round. "Nothing. A fellow countryman, all Chinese, chatted with me for a few words. ”

The bald man squinted his eyes and looked the thin Xu Xiaodi up and down, and then nodded: "If you have trouble, call us brothers." ”

Xu Xiaodi looked very helpless under the man's malicious gaze. Chu Zhongtian felt that this reporter was really pitiful, he hadn't seen a reporter before, and many people were arrogant, which made him annoyed by his new life. At the very least, the reporter in front of him has a good attitude.

He nodded, "Don't worry, Gary." Nothing will happen, thank you! ”

The bald man left the bar with his friends and sat back in their seats, where they continued drinking and chatting.

Xu Xiaodi breathed a sigh of relief. "They...... Are they all your friends? ”

Chu Zhongtian shrugged: "It's just that I often come here to drink, so I'm more familiar." And they're also Wimbledon fans. You'd better go back, I'm not going to be interviewed. I'm so sorry. ”

Xu Xiaodi was unwilling, but he couldn't afford to provoke the group of British fans who drank too much. The shortest one in the group just now was 1.85 meters, and what about himself? 1.70m...... Fifty people like him combined probably can't beat that group.

What to do? In fact, what worries him most is not that he will be denied an interview, but that his Chinese counterparts have gotten exclusive interviews before he does. After thinking about it, Xu Xiaodi was really unwilling to leave like this, so he handed his business card to Chu Zhongtian: "This is my business card, and my phone number at the London reporter station on it, if you are willing to be interviewed, please call this number." ”

After speaking, he picked up his wine glass and found an inconspicuous corner in the bar to sit down, wanting to see if there would be any peers coming, and then to see Chu Zhongtian's reaction, he must find a way to prevent his peers from getting this exclusive ...... Xu Xiaodi's peers are not inefficient, he sat in the bar for an hour, and then a second Chinese walked into the bar...... No, maybe it's more appropriate to trot into the bar.

Obviously, he is a Chinese reporter, but the aura of the whole person is different from that of Xu Xiaodi, a reporter who fights the streets. As soon as this person came in, he went straight to the bar, and then said to Chu Zhongtian confidently, "May I ask if it's Chu Zhongtian?" Hello, I am a reporter from Sports Weekly, my name is Li Liangcai. Can I do an interview with you? ”

Look, look, that's momentum! "Sports Weekly" is one of the most famous professional sports newspapers in China, and their reporters are also very good. How like himself, only promised, but was rejected...... Chu Zhongtian has heard of "Sports Weekly", and when he was in China before, he often saw the male classmates in the class buy and watch, and then many people borrowed it, and generally after borrowing a circle, the original owner could get no more than two, and those two must be some kind of Go and other news in the domestic sports world, and the others are gone. It can be seen how popular this newspaper is in China.

And Xu Xiaodi knows more about this newspaper than Chu Zhongtian. After all, it was the newspaper in his hometown of Changsha, Hunan. This newspaper once set a single-issue circulation record of 2.62 million copies when the Chinese team qualified for the 2001 World Cup qualifiers, and is currently the number one comprehensive sports newspaper in China. And the Li Liang in front of him is the number one reporter of the "Sports Weekly" reporter in London, England, and is also the deputy editor-in-chief of the "Sports Weekly". If he really let this newspaper be robbed, he will be completely finished, and he will definitely not be able to compete for the "Sports Weekly" that wants money, money, and people in the news war.

He almost stood up excitedly and was about to stop that Li Liangcai from interviewing Chu Zhongtian, but at this moment he heard Chu Zhongtian's voice ringing out: "I'm sorry, I can't accept your interview." ”

At this moment, although it was still the same sentence, to Xu Xiaodi's ears, it was simply a fucking sound!

Ahaha! "Sports Weekly", which is sideways in the domestic sports world, you also have today, and you also have today!!

was rejected by an international student and amateur player, are you ashamed? Shame is not shame!

Xu Xiaodi almost burst into tears, as if his whole body was raising his eyebrows.

Li Liangcai, the UK's leading reporter for Sports Weekly, did not expect his interview request to be rejected so simply by an amateur player...... He was stunned.

Xu Xiaodi saw him like this, lying on the table and snickering.

Chu Zhongtian also seemed to remember that he had refused too directly, so he added: "I'm sorry, it's not your problem, it's my own problem, I can't accept your interview...... Sorry......"

Li Liangcai could hardly believe his ears, he, who had even interviewed Ferguson and Wenger, had hit a nail in the nail on the head of a small amateur player...... He wanted to ask if the bartender in front of him was joking - I interviewed you as the most influential sports newspaper in China, and you could be famous! Maybe you can still be looked upon by professional teams, isn't that a good thing? Why refuse?

However, when he caught a glimpse of several British men sitting next to him, intentionally or unintentionally, clenched their punching-bag-sized fists and tattoos on their necks, he changed his mind temporarily.

He reluctantly left a business card and left in a hurry. didn't beg or ask for reasons like Xu Xiaodi, and didn't want to be sat down by beer and wait for someone. He's a big tabloidist, he doesn't bother to do that, and he's too busy to sit here and spend time with other Chinese counterparts.

Next, Xu Xiaodi sat in the corner and saw two more reporters with the same purpose as him, but they were also rejected by Chu Zhongtian. Xu Xiaodi can now be regarded as understanding, does Chu Zhongtian really not accept interviews, but only does he not accept interviews with Chinese reporters, or does he not accept interviews from all reporters? Then I don't know.

When he waited until noon, there were no more Chinese reporters to join in the fun, and the people in the hot bar gradually increased, and Chu Zhongtian was always busy.

Xu Xiaodi watched it for a while, and suddenly had a plan - it is not only a question and an answer that counts as an interview, and can only write a report. He can sit here and observe Chu Zhongtian, and he can also write a report that will interest the readers-the unknown side of the heroes on the court in life. This is bound to be of interest to many readers.

If those domestic media can't get Chu Zhongtian's interview rights, they can only copy the articles of the British media, everyone is copying, there are no advantages and disadvantages in this regard, but Chu Zhongtian's life, but you can't copy it!

But...... Do you want to talk to Chu Zhongtian before posting this report?

※※※Today is Sunday, and the daughter can be handed over to the wife. James. Merry decided to go to Chu Zhongtian for a chat, have a drink, show him the photos he had taken, and tell him - your kid is famous now!

As a result, as soon as I went out, I received a call from Abel.

"James, you're resigning from that damn newspaper now, that Chinese boy should give it to me, right?" Abel got straight to the point about the purpose of his call.

Merry thought about it, and it seemed that it was nothing to let Abel report. Anyway, Chu Zhongtian is already famous, and it doesn't matter if he is famous. Anyway, his life will definitely change with this game. It's a little more reassuring to hand it over to Abel to report on himself - how can Abel be an old friend of his own, and in some places he can still talk, but if he were handed over to other football reporters, who knows what heinous things they would write?

"Okay, I'll allow you to contact him, but I'm sorry if he doesn't accept your interview."

Merry got into the car and lit it up.

"Didn't I have you, James! Hehe, I know you have a good relationship with him, right? ”

"You're going to ask me to be your introducer?"

"That's right, that's right. You can also be there during the interview, and if you think there is something wrong with it, you can remind me, how about it? I've thought it through, haven't I? Abel exclaimed.

"Hmm......" Merry couldn't find a reason to refute. Well, where are you? I'm going to go to the bar where he works right now. ”

"I'm sitting at the table less than ten meters away from him, James, ha!"

"You bastard!" Merry hung up the phone and drove out. I didn't call until I arrived...... but Chu Zhongtian didn't have time to enjoy the treatment of being recognized by fans on the street and then flocking to ask for autographs, but he was first targeted by the all-pervasive reporters.

The old acquaintances who came to the bar to drink would bring a newspaper to Chu Zhongtian when they came, and then pointed to the newspaper and told him, "You are famous, Chu".

"Be careful not to be caught in your pants changing, haha!"

"I think you need a full-time agent to help you deal with all the media and all that other mess and money...... What do you think of me, Chu? ”

"Maybe there will be scouts from professional teams coming to the door. Although I am very reluctant to you, Chu. But reason tells me it's better for you to get out of here and go to a bigger stage! ”

"But when you become a big star, don't forget about us, don't forget Wimbledon!"

Everyone was looking forward to what he would look like after becoming famous, and Chu Zhongtian was smiling and listening.

Xu Xiaodi watched this scene from the side, only to realize that although he had been here for most of the day, he didn't know anything about this person at all, writing about his life? Is it another nonsense to make up a report?

But in the face of such a living life, Xu Xiaodi felt for the first time that his phenomenon was a little lacking, and he couldn't make it up...... I want to come into your life, how colorful should it be?
