214 Bird's Nest

"Jin Ming, Jin Ming. You say a couple of words to everyone! ”

Just as Jin Ming was waving to the fans, a person came to Jin Ming's side and handed his microphone to Jin Ming. Jin Ming originally thought it was the staff at the scene, but after a closer look, there were some familiar faces.

Jin Ming thought for a moment, and suddenly thought of who the person in front of him was.

"Fang Lishen, hello."

Jin Ming remembers watching a TV series called "100% Feeling" when he was a child. At that time, I liked the silly protagonist in the TV series very much, and I saw the information of the protagonist at that time. It turned out that he was still a swimmer. He also represented Hong Kong at the Olympic Games.

At that time, Hong Kong and Taiwan TV dramas were still quite high, and they were quite popular in Chinese mainland. Although Jin Ming did not chase stars like those fanatical fans, Jin Ming also liked to watch those TV series and movies back then.

Therefore, I really have a little impression of Fang Lishen.

I didn't expect to see him here after many years.

It's just that Jin Ming has some doubts about why Fang Lishen is here. Could it be that he has changed careers to become a host, and this time the on-site organizer invited him to come over and be today's host?

Very confused.

However, Jin Ming is now experienced in a hundred battles and has seen so many reporters. I don't dare to say that I am completely moody, but I generally don't express my thoughts casually in front of strangers.

Therefore, Jin Ming greeted him with a smile.

"Jin Ming, it's great that you're an Arsenal player. I'm an Arsenal fan and I hope to be yours in the future. ”

"Thank you."

Jin Ming actually didn't understand why Fang Lishen came to the scene.

In fact, what Jin Ming didn't know was that Fang Lishen was a very senior Arsenal fan, and he did come here today to be a host and a fan organizer. There are a lot of celebrities in Hong Kong who are fans of Premier League teams. Among them are Manchester United fans, there are Arsenal fans.

Because of the special relationship between Hong Kong and the United Kingdom, the Premier League has many fans in Hong Kong.

Including Guangdong, which began broadcasting the Premier League very early, there are also a lot of Premier League fans. In proportion, Guangdong has the largest number of Premier League fans in China.

Jin Ming took Fang Lishen's microphone. Looking at the thousands of fans above, he thought for a moment and said: "Arsenal are a great team. I'm very happy to be joining Arsenal and my goal is to win the title at Arsenal. ”

"Jin Ming! Jin Ming! Jin Ming! ”

Jin Ming just said a few words, but he was highly cheered by Chinese fans. After Jin Ming finished speaking, he handed the microphone to Fang Lishen, then waved to the fans, and then ran to the court.

"Kim, your popularity is too high. You see, it's all the number nine jerseys. ”

Chamberlain looked at the thousands of fans, most of whom were wearing No. 9 jerseys, and gave a thumbs up to Jin Ming. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is a talented wide player from Southampton. When he was best known in Southampton, he was not as popular in Southampton.

Young people like to contrast, they like to compare.

Seeing that Jin Ming was so popular here, Chamberlain was very envious.

"Alex, this is China."

"That's right."

In fact, it is not only Oxlade-Chamberlain who is curious, but also other Arsenal players. Although it is an open training with a performance nature, the training on the Arsenal side is still very formal. It should be said that it is not formal, but there is everything that should be there, and there is no next project. It's just compared to real training. It's just a lot lower in intensity.

First, I ran laps slowly, which took about ten minutes. Then start doing simple passing and receiving exercises, and when your body is completely free, start doing some simple coordination exercises and shooting exercises.

It's all a daily training course. It's just that it may be practiced in front of Chinese fans, so many players are willing to show some unique skills, or the nature of the table is stronger.

If this was the case in normal training, Wenger would have been angry. But this time in China. It was originally for the Chinese market to satisfy Chinese fans, and Wenger would not say anything.

At this time, Jin Ming began to practice free kicks.

Jin Ming has been practicing free kicks for five years. In the past five years, Jin Ming has practiced free kicks every day, and his free kick kung fu has been very good. When he played at Schalke, Jin Ming's direct free kick goals were very numerous. Those teams in the Bundesliga know the power of Jin Ming's free kicks.

But Jin Ming still did not give up the training of free kicks. The current Jin Ming free kick training is the same as the usual passing and receiving training, which is a compulsory course every day. Jin Ming's free kick kung fu is getting better and better, and now when the team arranges training, they also give Jin Ming some free kick training. It's not like it's like it used to be doing it on your own. After five years of uninterrupted practice, Jin Ming's free kick now has a very high hit rate.

Six or seven out of 10 hits are already possible.

Every time Jin Ming's free kick enters the goal, it will cause bursts of cheers from the fans above.

After completing a variety of simple training sessions, Arsene Wenger divided Arsenal into two groups and began to play intra-squad matches, which lasted about half an hour. Jin Ming also joined in, but the table xiàn was not very good. Because Jin Ming has not fully adapted to Arsenal's style of play. Arsenal's style of play is completely different from Schalke's. After Jin Ming came to Arsenal, the biggest thing he felt was that the skills of Arsenal players were really good.

On the contrary, I felt that my technique was a little rough.

Especially in this kind of small field play, Jin Ming is not very good. Jin Ming's style of play needs more space, but Jin Ming tries his best to adapt to Arsenal's style of play. Jin Ming also hopes to hone his skills more at Arsenal, which has better technical ability.

Every time he looked at those players with good skills, flashing left and right in a small space, Jin Ming was also quite envious and admired. Jin Ming is willing to adapt himself to Arsenal's style of play and make his skills better.

So although he didn't adapt to it, and his appearance was not very good, Jin Ming still worked very hard to integrate into Arsenal's style of play.

And there is a peculiarity to Arsene Wenger's training.

That's the same action, and he'll repeat it many times. Just like passing the ball in the midfield, Jin Ming took the ball on the left side, then crossed, and finally the center player headed the ball. A goal routine like this will be practiced over and over again. You will vomit when you practice, but he still asks the players to practice over and over again.

This is the first time in Jin Ming's career.

The first time I repeated an offensive routine over and over again. Jin Ming has also seen many coaches. When I was at Seoul FC, I had Günesh, and after I came to Schalke, I had coaches like Magat, Rangnick, and Stevens.

None of them are general. But there has never been such a training situation.

Arsene Wenger's explanation is interesting.

Say it's a muscle memory exercise for the players. After everyone is familiar with such training over and over again, they can make these offensive moves with their eyes closed during the game. When attacking, the players know how to run and how to pass the ball.

Such exercises become a kind of memory.

Jin Ming didn't know if it was true, but Jin Ming knew that this kind of practice should be able to increase each other's tacit understanding. And Jin Ming believes that since Wenger is a world famous coach, there must be something unique in this regard. Therefore, Jin Ming also participated in such repeated training according to Wenger's words.

Arsenal's open training session was an hour and a half in total.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a show.

If that's what training looks like, the Premier League wouldn't be that fast-paced. Although the content of the training is there, the intensity is much lower. Today's open training is more about allowing Chinese fans to see these stars up close and give them a chance to interact with them.

So after the training session, the fans were even happier.

Because the lottery begins, among the more than 3,000 fans, ten lucky fans will be drawn. Not only do they have gifts, but they can also have their favorite stars photographed together, and they can also get autographed photos of their favorite stars.

After the draw ended, it didn't end. The enthusiasm of the fans is still there, so much so that Chamberlain, who was more excited today, took off his jersey and threw it to the fans on the stage.

His action immediately made the fans present cheer.

Other Arsenal players saw this and did the same. Such an action by the Arsenal players immediately detonated the great enthusiasm of the fans present.

This interaction took about half an hour.

Overall, the Arsenal training match was a success, not an average success. Because of Manchester City, who followed closely behind, there were less than 300 Manchester City fans in attendance at their training matches, just over 200.

Compared to Arsenal's more than 3,000 people, the number is very small.

This was a disappointment for the Manchester City hierarchy.

It also disappointed the big-name Manchester City players who heard the news from Arsenal's side. There are not a few big-name players who Manchester City have come to Beijing this time. Tevez, Aguero, Yaya. Toure, Kompany, Colo. Toure, Zabaleta and other top stars.

But with so many stars, they can't attract too many fans.

Manchester City's hierarchy also understands that Manchester City's rise is too short and there are still too few fans abroad. Look at how many years Arsenal has not won a championship, although there is a factor of Jin Ming, but even without Jin Ming, Arsenal can attract thousands of fans.

Compared to Arsenal, Manchester City has too little influence.

…………

July 27, 2012, 8 p.m. Beijing time.

Groups of fans began to flock to the Beijing Bird's Nest, but at first glance, most of them were red jerseys, and most of them were Arsenal fans. Manchester City fans are only a small part of Arsenal fans.

City's hierarchy was disappointed.

Although they thought that Arsenal must have a lot more fans than Manchester City, they did not expect such a disparity. Manchester City fans are estimated to be only five or six times the size of Arsenal fans, or even seven or eight.

Anyway, the bird's nest has completely become a sea of red.

As the game approaches, the players are on the pitch to familiarise themselves with the pitch and do some warm-ups. Seeing these stars, the whole stadium was filled with screams and cheers. The fans were very happy to see these stars in person. (To be continued......)
