Naturally, the media reporters did not believe what the Birmingham club said at the press conference, especially the reporters of The Sun, who really did not believe it.

However, what these reporters did not expect was that in North America, in the United States, Misha Barton actually held a press conference before the Birmingham club, and at the press conference, Misha Barton denied the media's claims.

Misha Barton claims that she and Dongfang Chen are just ordinary friends, not lovers.

Misha Barton also said that she and Dongfang Chen did not take drugs, and Misha Barton also said that when they traveled together that day, they were in public places, and they did not leave the sight of the masses, where did they go to take drugs?

At a press conference, Misha Barton strongly condemned the English newspaper The Sun and the media that fanned the flames, and said that she would not give up on taking legal steps to seek justice from The Sun.

The quick reaction of these two parties surprised these media reporters, who originally planned to use this matter for a few days to attract the public's attention.

Now both parties are taking legal means to talk about things at every turn, which has made some media restrain a lot.

However, the Sun did not stop, and they published reports claiming that even if you didn't take drugs that day, who knows if you used drugs at other times? You've known each other for so long, you can't just be together this once.

The Sun's report was naturally supported by some people, many of whom questioned Dongfang Chen.

At this time, Dongfang Chen was still known for the trouble of "The Sun", and Misha Barton's lawyer's letter was handed to the headquarters of "The Sun".

As soon as the news broke, all the media reporters were shocked, they didn't expect Misha Barton to play for real, which even the "Sun" did not expect.

At this time, the other media are even more restrained, and no one wants to provoke Misha Barton, a crazy woman who doesn't play according to the routine.

Other media outlets shifted their focus and began their normal coverage of the upcoming Championship fixture.

One game in the upcoming Championship that is particularly intriguing for Chinese fans is the Chinese derby in the Championship at the weekend, with Birmingham City taking on Zheng Zhi's Charlton Athletic side at their home turf.

Many Chinese journalists flocked to Birmingham to interview the two people.

"Sports Weekly" reporters Zhong Dajun and An Xiaoxi naturally also came to Birmingham, and they both came to the Birmingham team's Vorster training base and wanted to interview Dongfang Chen in the restricted area.

However, the Birmingham team is training behind closed doors and no fans can get in, let alone journalists.

Zhong Dajun and An Xiaoxi saw that this path could not be followed, so they contacted Yang Jiacheng again and expressed their desire to interview Dongfang Chen.

This time, Yang Jiacheng didn't agree, after all, such a big thing had just happened, and he didn't want to make a difference.

Seeing that the interview with Dongfang Chen was not possible, Zhong Dajun and An Xiaoxi immediately shifted their targets, and they immediately went to Charlton's hotel where the Birmingham team was staying to interview Zheng Zhi.

Zheng Zhi is a big brother-level figure in Chinese football today, and he is also very good in Charlton, he is the main player of the team, and he is deeply respected by head coach Pardu.

After the training, Zheng Zhi was about to go back to the hotel when Zhong Dajun and An Xiaoxi stopped him. Seeing that this was a domestic reporter, and the two sides had had dealings before, Zheng Zhi agreed to the interview between Zhong Dajun and An Xiaoxi.

In an interview with Zhong Dajun, Zheng Zhi said: "The Birmingham team is very strong, they are the biggest favorites to hit the Super League. However, they have had some trouble lately and we will be hoping to take advantage of this opportunity and take points from them. ”

Zhong Dajun and An Xiaoxi naturally asked Zheng Zhi's opinion of Dongfang Chen.

Zheng Zhi said: "Dongfang is a very characteristic player with good strength. The schedule was also very good, and it surprised me. Recently, there have been some problems with the table, maybe it is a problem with the mentality, if the mentality is adjusted, I believe that he can play a piece of the future. ”

Charlton Athletic's head coach Pardew also gave an interview to Chung Dajun and An Xiaoxi, saying: "This game is very important for us, the opponent is very strong. But we are not afraid at all and we are confident that we can win the game. ”

Naturally, Chung asked Pardew what he thought of the Chinese player Dongfang Chen in the Birmingham City squad.

Pardu naturally wants to say a little bit of good things in front of Chinese reporters, and he has a Chinese player under him, and he will not slander Dongfang Chen if he doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha.

"Well, this is a very characteristic Chinese player, and his body is not coarse. Even in the Championship, his physique is at the top, and the early schedule is very good, and he has some strength. However, I believe that our defenders will not give him too many chances because we want to win, hahaha! ”

At the end, Pardu himself was amused.

From the words of Zheng Zhi and Pardew, everyone understands that Charlton has great expectations for this match, and they are here to win.

In China, it is natural that there is also a lot of attention to this game, and those super hardcore fans are looking for the live video of this game on the Internet, but unfortunately this address is really too difficult to find, and there is no media live broadcast in China at all.

These fans only have a live link from abroad to watch the game, and the video is said to be very stuck. However, this still can't dampen the enthusiasm of Chinese fans, and it is rare to see a derby by Chinese players in Europe, and they will certainly not let it go.

15 November 2008, St Andrews Stadium, Birmingham, England.

Birmingham City fans dressed in blue filled the stadium to the brim, while Charlton Athletic had very few fans in attendance, looking like there were only a hundred or so people, or even less.

Birmingham fans take this game very seriously, of course they don't care about the Chinese derby, they care about the victory of this game. Birmingham are still winless in a row and will need to stop their slump.

Birmingham fans put up slogans in the stands with slogans such as "Birmingham must win" and "Birmingham win all three points", which reflects the eagerness of Birmingham fans now.

Among these fans, there are also some people who put up slogans such as "expel the Chinese boy" and "we don't want Dongfang Chen", and these fans attribute the reason for the collapse of the Birmingham team to Dongfang Chen, they don't want to see this damn boy.

Zhong Dajun and An Xiaoxi, who were in the press box, glanced at each other, they really didn't expect that Dongfang Chen's current situation in the Birmingham team would be so bad, and so many fans would start to oppose Dongfang Chen, how long has it been, Dongfang Chen's status has been so subverted.

Both An Xiaoxi and Zhong Dajun have some concerns about Dongfang Chen, the current Dongfang Chen watch is really terrible, and now Dongfang Chen continues to want a strong watch to change the opinion of Birmingham fans about him, just like when he first joined Birmingham team.

At this time, Dongfang Chen was preparing for the game in the locker room.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the Birmingham team's dressing room, and the FA staff motioned for the Birmingham team player representatives to go out for a urine test.

Dongfang Chen is naturally also in the ranks of urine tests, and the report of "The Sun" has attracted the attention of the FA, even if Dongfang Chen has not taken drugs or used illegal drugs, they must be cautious and must take action against Dongfang Chen.

Dongfang Chen had expected this, and he didn't believe that the British Football Association would be indifferent.

After returning from the urine test, Dongfang Chen listened to the tactical arrangement of head coach McLeish in the locker room. After the tactical arrangement was over, Dongfang Chen followed the players of the Birmingham team into the player tunnel.

When he was in the players' tunnel, Dongfang Chen saw his big brother Zheng Zhi, and Dongfang Chen immediately walked up and greeted Zheng Zhi: "Brother Zheng, long time no see!" ”

Zheng Zhi also said with a smile: "Yes, long time no see!" What have you been doing lately? So many miscellaneous things? ”

Dongfang Chen said helplessly: "These bullshit things are not caused by me, but by those media reporters who have no discipline at all." ”

Zheng Zhi patted Dongfang Chen on the shoulder and said, "Okay, leave those media alone!" Do what you have to do! ”

Dongfang Chen nodded and said, "Got it!" ”

The two parted without much talk, after all, this is not an old friend meeting, and they have a game next.

Soon after Dongfang Chen and Zheng Zhi returned to their teams, the players from both sides walked into the St. Andrews Stadium under the guidance of the referee.

"Hello everyone, fans!
