"You don't know, haha." Seeing Xiaomeng's expression, Chen Zhuo smiled and said, "Let me describe it to you, my expression at that time was like this......"

Saying that, Chen Zhuo stood up, imitating the expression he heard Huo Zhenlin and Liang Kede talk about this matter in Hamburg a few days ago, and made a look of surprise, and said, "4:1 victory over South Korea? 2-0 win over Japan? Zuihou also won the championship? Are you talking about the Hong Kong team? When's it? ”

Xiao Meng covered her mouth and giggled, and said, "With your expression, aren't people very faceless?" ”

Shrugging his shoulders and sitting down in his seat, Chen Zhuo said: "It's quite faceless, but Chairman Liang was obviously a little depressed by choking, and muttered a sentence in Cantonese that I didn't understand. ”

"What do you mean?" Moe asked.

Chen Zhuo pursed his lips and said: "This is the kind of South Korean team that won the Chinese men's football team by three goals......"

This time returning from Hamburg, Chen Zhuo's first stop is Beijing, after the competition on May 12, he stayed in Hamburg for a week, arrived in Beijing on the 19th, and rushed to Beidaihe the next day, Xiaomeng's recuperation in Beidaihe just ended, the two will go home together, stay with their families for about a week, and then go to Hong Kong to handle other things at the end of May.

As soon as they met Xiaomeng, he asked questions, Chen Zhuo picked a few funny things to tell Xiaomeng, of course, Heidi's variables Xiaomeng already knew, and even knew more than Chen Zhuo, two people who were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers were once supposed to be "love rivals" Zuihou actually became "best friends", which is something that Chen Zhuo can't understand.

Chen Zhuo told Xiaomeng about the Hong Kong team of China defeating the South Korean team and the Japanese team in a row to win the championship, not a YY novel but a real score, that was the 2009 Hong Kong East Asian Games, which happened in December last year, when Chen Zhuo was not even in Hamburg but in Guangzhou, but there was not much coverage at the time, and people will not remember this story later.

However, this really made Hong Kong fans a little excited for a while, the East Asian Games champion at the end of last year, although it was not a particularly high gold champion, but for Hong Kong, the "fish belly team" ranked 143rd in the international rankings, it is always a happy thing to have progress.

The East Asian Games is a regional multi-sport event, in 1991 by China, Japan, South Korea, **, Mongolia, Hong Kong, Macao, Kazakhstan and Guam 9 countries and regions of the Olympic Committee jointly sponsored to organize, in fact, the original country also has North Korea, and in Jihua, that is, the first was held in Shanghai in 1993, and the second was held in North Korea in 1995.

In 1991, China and South Korea had not yet formally established diplomatic relations, Hong Kong and Macao had not officially returned, and the five Central Asian countries that had become independent from the Soviet Union were looking for their own direction and backing in terms of diplomacy.

It is said that sports have nothing to do with politics, it is impossible, everything is a continuation of politics, and there is no way to truly understand it without the historical background and political background.

A few days ago, I saw a book review of a competitive book by Dianniang talking about the Sino-Japanese Go Tournament, the book reviewer thinks that it should not be downplayed that emotion, the author thinks that time has passed and cannot find a sense of substitution in that era, and there are a few small pot friends Pi Qing book reviewers pursue Wei Guangzheng, hehe, in fact, all history is contemporary history, whether there is a sense of substitution and resonance for a piece of history, in fact, it is a generation gap, so simple.

At that time, East Asia and Shijie pattern, after the division of the Soviet Union, the national strength declined sharply, the United States began to expand strategically through military intervention in Iraq, and the Cold War ended with the defeat of the Soviet Union and the great victory of the United States. The relations between China, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan, and between China and Central Asia have become delicate.

In the 1990 Asian Games, China still called South Korea "South Korea" when commentating, but in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, the title was changed to "South Korea", that is, the adjustment of political diplomacy is the embodiment of sports competition, from table tennis diplomacy to basketball diplomacy, sports have always been an important means of diplomacy.

At that time, the elder Bush had put forward the idea of "cross-establishment of diplomatic relations" on the Korean Peninsula, with China and the Soviet Union establishing diplomatic relations with the ROK and the United States establishing diplomatic relations with the DPRK respectively, so that even if diplomatic relations between the DPRK and the ROK were not established for the time being, the peaceful situation would be further deepened through this "cross-establishment of diplomatic relations." The idea of the East Asian Games and the 1991 determination that the Second East Asian Games would be held in Pyongyang, North Korea, in 1995 were also a kind of "ice-breaking" based on this idea.

Later, in 1992, China and Russia respectively established diplomatic relations with South Korea, and the elder Bush failed to be re-elected after submitting the proposal for the establishment of diplomatic relations to Congress. So from that time, North Korea was isolated, and then it began to slowly make negative announcements through various media tools, and then demonized, and by about 2010, North Korea and Iraq around 1990 were already very similar in terms of international image, and the news is not to reveal any truth, it is also a means of politics, and sports.

The same is true for China, the East Asian Games have promoted exchanges and exchanges between the mainland and Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan, as well as between China and Central Asian countries, Hong Kong and Macao have returned smoothly, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization has also been established, and East Asian countries and many countries have also learned that the US military base on Guam is not the territory of their country, and Guam is an independent region. Basically, the purpose that should have been achieved has been achieved.

After the cancellation of the second East Asian Games in Pyongyang in 1995, the East Asian Games were changed to four years, so in 1997, the host of the second East Asian Games was replaced by Busan Pyongyang, and the right to host the third East Asian Games in 2001 was agreed in 1996, which was originally held in Macao, and Japan proposed to boost the economy after the Hanshin earthquake by preparing for the East Asian Games, so it was changed to Osaka, Japan, and Macao held the fourth in 2005, and the fifth was hosted by Hong Kong. This is all happening in the context of the 90s.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, after 911, the United States took the opportunity to enter the important strategic position of Central Asia, and then further tightened the noose to Iraq in the Middle East, for which the United States needs Japan and South Korea to act as a forward base in Asia, Japan took the opportunity to step up the construction of the Maritime Self-Defense Force in the name of logistics transportation, and then the diplomatic aspect has gradually developed from pro-China to anti-Chinese, and gradually cooled down from the heat of the eighties and nineties, the political cold and the economic heat, and then has been cooling, and since 2010, it has gradually begun to escalate to military confrontation. At this time, the East Asian Games will no longer have the need to continue.

2013 will be the first East Asian Games in Zuihou, and since then the Games have been renamed the "East Asian Youth Games" and continue to be maintained, just like the "Commonwealth Games" that have turned from prosperity to decline but have been maintained and waited for the day when they will flourish again. Sport, and sometimes politics, is also a barometer.

The same information, Xiaomeng's analysis of the East Asian Games, Chen Zhuo thinks it is very interesting, the stock market is a barometer of the economy, sports is a barometer of politics, so football, what is the barometer?

(c)

For football itself, it is indeed not so complicated, according to the schedule, the men's football competition of the East Asian Games requires players from each participating country and region to be the U-22 national team, which is a competition between the youth teams of various countries, that is, an early warm-up for the 2012 Olympic qualifiers.

A total of six teams participated in this year's East Asian Games, Group A is Japan, North Korea, and Macao, China, and Group B is China, South Korea, and Hong Kong, China.

In the first game of the group, Group A Japan defeated North Korea 2-1, as expected, and Group B, Hong Kong, China defeated Hong Kong 4-1 to blow up a huge upset, the game was December 3, 2009, Chen Zhuo thought about it carefully, but he had no impression, about the East Asian Games, he did not pay attention to it at all.

In the group single round-robin match, Hong Kong defeated South Korea 4:1, South Korea defeated China 3:0, and China beat Hong Kong 1:0.

In the semi-finals, Hong Kong, China drew 1-1 with North Korea and defeated North Korea on penalties to advance to the final. In the other semi-final, Japan defeated South Korea 2-1.

In the final, the Hong Kong team drew 1:1 with the Japanese team, and finally beat the Japanese team to win the championship of the East Asian Games.

I haven't seen the roster list in all aspects, but in terms of scores, it is in line with the script of a weak upset to win the championship, hehe, if it weren't for Lao Huo's efforts to boost the ball market and make his sports industry hot, it shows that the boys of this year's Hong Kong Olympic team still have some potential!

It seems that the old Huo family has put some effort and thought into the development of Hong Kong's sports industry and football, and I heard that the three generations of Huo Dagongzi and Huo Ergongzi have served as the vice president of Huo's Group, helping Lao Huo share the burden in the sports industry and real estate respectively, as if their Huo family is not only only going to have scandals with celebrities.

chatting and analyzing all the way, Xiaomeng and Chen Zhuo arrived home soon.

"Huh? Why are Xiao Meng and Xiao Zhuo so rubbing, hurry up and call the two of them, and the battle red war song, what are they rubbing! Uncle Kim sat with his grandparents, and the dishes were served, Uncle Kim asked Aunt Jin to call them next door, and the children sorted out the gifts for a long time.

Logistics is really developed, and Chen Zhuo's packages mailed back from abroad are earlier than people arriving home. The grandparents counted the days and waited for their grandson to come back, and the brothers and sisters of Zhanhong and Zhan Ge were also very happy, Uncle Jin specially opened a bottle of Moutai that had been stored for more than ten years, and asked Chen Zhuo to accompany him to drink a few cups no matter what.

"Come on!" Chen Zhuo walked in with a smile, and Xiao Meng and Zhan Hong Zhan Ge followed behind, holding large bags of gifts.
