After his debut at Anfield, Qin Xiong wore a Liverpool shirt to the interview room, where the Red Army emblem and flag and some trophies served as a backdrop, where he will be interviewed by two media outlets.

The first person to sit across from him was Matthew Hughes, chief sports reporter for The Times.

After shaking hands, the two reached out to each other to signal each other to sit down, and the atmosphere of the interview was very relaxed, Matthew Hughes held Jiro's legs, put the notebook on his lap, and held a pen in his right hand to record the key points of the interview at any time.

Qin Xiong sat in the single sofa with a leisurely expression.

Matthew Hughes asked lightly: "How do you feel about joining Liverpool?" ”

Qin Xiong smiled: "Excited, excited, like God has opened another window for me, a new environment, a new goal, like everything has to start over, but it's not quite like it, after all, I'm not Qin Xiong six or seven years ago, all in all, I feel like I've never looked forward to tomorrow so much." ”

"Okay, can we talk about why you left Real Madrid? Although Barcelona enjoyed unprecedented success last season, Real Madrid quickly stole the limelight with a sensation in the transfer market a month later. Even casual fans who fantasize about the three of you fighting side by side will think that it is the beginning of a new legend. ”

Faced with this question, Qin Xiong shrugged his shoulders and said: "Maybe, that's someone else's business, just like I appreciate the words of King Dalglish of Liverpool, in the eyes of others you are a legend, that's all." What you think you are is the key. Most people only saw Florentino come to power. saw the addition of Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka. But they ignored the departure of Bosque, Robben, Sneijder. ”

"Oh? Robben and Sneijder confirmed to leave Real Madrid? ”

"Although the news has not yet been announced, I am sure that they are already in contact with the next family and it is expected that the transfer will be announced soon."

"So you were kicked out by the club because of the teammates you admired and loved, and the coach made the decision to leave?"

Qin Xiong thought for a moment and said, "Not exactly, the matter here is very complicated. I don't think Bosque did anything wrong, he shouldn't be the main culprit for Real Madrid's failure last season, in fact he has been doing very well and I have to say a word for him: he brought Real Madrid three Champions League titles! This is a glorious achievement that many clubs have not been able to achieve in more than half a century. I had a good record with Arjen Robben and Sneijder the previous season, we had a good understanding and worked well together, but the club gave them up after the new management came to power, and the club had a reason for it. The players have the feelings and thoughts of the players, and all I can say is that I don't agree with them. Even if the club brought in Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, I still don't think that would make Real Madrid even better than they were in 2008. ”

Matthew Hughes instead fell into deep thought.

He has interviewed a lot of stars, and when it comes to these kinds of issues, they tend to be more inclined to the general public's opinion.

But Qin Xiong chose to remain silent after leaving Real Madrid, and after leaving, he was able to express his views publicly.

This gave Matthew Hughes a further understanding that Qin Xiong is a superstar with personality.

"Do you have a conflict with Florentino? Before your transfer, the Madrid media revealed that your two meetings with him ended unhappily. ”

Qin Xiong shook his head and said: "We have no personal contradictions, we are just doing business, and it is normal for us to have differences in the renewal negotiation and not be able to reach an agreement." ”

"Aren't the conditions offered by Real Madrid generous enough?"

'All I can say is that I don't see enough sincerity on Real Madrid' side, and a lot of times it's not so much about money, it's about the way the club treats the players, the players need to be fully respected.

In the face of the interview, Qin Xiong naturally couldn't say that the biggest obstacle to renewing his contract with Real Madrid was the distribution of image rights, so he found an excuse to divert the topic.

Matthew Hughes then asked: "Making the decision to leave Real Madrid, you have a lot of options, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Chelsea, Manchester City, all four clubs have made enough offers for you, why did they turn them down?" ”

Qin Xiong patiently replied: "When I choose a new club, I will consider it comprehensively, not just the internal situation of that club, I am not very interested in the Bundesliga, maybe I can succeed in Bayern Munich, but the success will be limited, the Italian scene is full of challenges, but the competitiveness of Serie A has also declined in recent years, and Inter Milan is very successful in Italy itself, they have dominated Serie A over the years, I don't think it is challenging to go to Serie A, as for Chelsea, It's an attractive enough club and it's difficult to turn down Chelsea, but I still don't think Chelsea are the right fit for me, maybe in terms of technical and tactical style, Manchester City? If I were to join Manchester City, the whole world would think I was crazy and I couldn't imagine how hard it would be without the Champions League. ”

"Hahaha, yes, a star of your level needs the Champions League stage, and the Champions League needs you. So why Liverpool? ”

Qin Xiong couldn't actually come up with a convincing reason, but he skillfully answered the question in a rhetorical way.

"Why can't it be Liverpool? Liverpool have the potential to challenge for the title and have been a powerhouse in England for a long time, especially since the Reds are a passionate team that can always bring exciting games to the fans, and I think that kind of madness is what I want to pursue. ”

Matthew Hughes was not to be fooled, he asked with a teasing look in his eyes: "Isn't it because Liverpool has a Chinese boss?" ”

Qin Xiong laughed and said, "If I say no, then Jiu is too hypocritical." I have to say that three years at Real Madrid have taught me a lot, and these experiences have taught me that even the most successful clubs, if the management makes mistakes, can lead to a big rout. When I made sure that Liverpool's new management was running the club with the idea of reviving Liverpool and sticking to the long-term stability of the club, it gave me a lot of confidence to join Liverpool, which was one of the reasons I came to Anfield, are you satisfied? ”

Matthew Hughes laughed and nodded: "Hearing you say that, not only am I satisfied, I believe many Liverpool fans will also be very satisfied, they are fed up with deception and confusion. ”
