Chapter 15: The Great Villain of Russia
"Whether it is moral corruption or the distortion of human nature, the story that has to be told between the new striker of Spartak Moscow and the wife of the Kazan ruby defender ..."
"It is said that the Chinese boy did not know at all, we interviewed the Spartak substitute goalkeeper, and Epifanov's girlfriend did the same, so it was just an unintentional mistake." --Izvestia
"According to our interview, the Chinese boy Lin is a very popular player with his teammates, the Spartak players declared that he definitely did not deliberately date a married woman, they believe in Lin's character, compared to this incident, I am more curious why the Chinese boy conquered the Spartak players so quickly, in my impression, Chinese are very timid and afraid, how can you play with Russian players in that situation?" --Rossiya Gazeta
If you are born in the 80s, you will definitely remember that there were often unreliable news in newspapers in that era.
While the mainstream media has largely maintained credibility, there are times when they choose to attract attention.
Even if it doesn't have as undisciplined content as the UC Shock Department later, it won't be processed too much, but the title will still choose some eye-catching operations.
The situation is similar in Russia.
Lin Supo, as the first Chinese player to join the Russian Premier League, has a very high level of attention.
The relationship between Russia and China is very complicated, or the love-hate relationship between the former Soviet Union and China, which cannot be said for three days and three nights, especially since the older generation still remembers the affairs between the Soviet Union and China, and they pay more attention to this Chinese player than the Russian player everywhere.
It can be said that Lin Supo is now the representative of Russian traffic stars.
The era of print media is more enduring than celebrities in the Internet age, after all, news does not spread as fast as in the Internet era.
Anyway, Lin Supo has begun to become popular.
In addition to the scandal between him and Ivanovic's wife, there is also his unusual style of play.
It's not uncommon for a defender to score goals this year, but it's a real rarity for strikers to tackle, and it's 14 tackles in a game.
Compared to the Russian media, the domestic media reports are much more serious, only reporting that he won his first victory in the Russian Premier League and provided an assist.
Lin Supo himself did not pay much attention to the reports of the Russian media.
Because of the pro-Western reasons of the Russian high-level, some Russian media have done exactly the same thing as the British paparazzi, and what is even more interesting is that some newspapers have criticized it locally, and this kind of thing in Russia is unimaginable. Russia is known to have no bottom line, and even Kvass has eaten the pot and burned, but drinking Coca-Cola has become a progressive behavior.
So it is not surprising that they like to attract attention, and it is not surprising that some newspapers are hostile to him, after all, in order to show loyalty to their masters.
China has been demonized by Europe and the United States for too long.
Playing in the Russian Super League, Lin Supo didn't want to be a moral saint, because that would be too tiring.
He would rather be a big villain in football who is feared by everyone, than a football saint.
Of course, he will not do anything to discredit the motherland.
However, this kind of three-way thing will not affect the image at all, after all, European thought and Confucian cultural circles are completely different.
Interestingly, after finishing the training in the evening, he returned to the dormitory to watch TV, and Lin Supo actually saw the RIA Novosti report about him, and it was quite positive.
"Since Chinese player Lin Supo joined the Russian Premier League, he quickly integrated into the team, was friendly to his teammates and Spartak players, endured hardships in the front and enjoyed himself in the back, and stood out for his teammates in the game, this spirit of unity and friendship is worth learning from......
The narrative is very official.
And the evaluation of him is too positive.
He couldn't figure it out.
How did Lao Maozi become his licking dog?
Could it be that he was too handsome to conquer the country?
It was only when he saw that Russia and China had reached a multifaceted cooperation that he suddenly realized.
Relying on him is an add-on, mainly to show favor to China.
But this is also very good, the two countries maintain good relations, he can also play in the Russian Super League with peace of mind, if the relationship is really tense, Lin Supo will not hesitate to tear up the contract and return to China directly, in the face of national interests, personal loss of honor and disgrace is nothing.
Now that relations between the two countries are warming up, he can also play in Spartak with peace of mind, what does this team say?
No money is certain, compared to the European giants, both the salary and training conditions are much worse, but the harmonious relationship between the players makes him very comfortable.
This group of post-70s born in the Soviet Union has been educated since childhood, which is unity and friendship, courage to dedicate everything, and focus on collective interests.
It's a pleasure to play with team-mates like that.
The phrase "I am for all, everyone is for me" is well reflected in the Spartak players.
Therefore, even if the conditions of the Russian Premier League are worse than those in Europe, Lin Supo is still willing to play here for a few years.
Everyone has the same ideological outlook, and even if the material conditions are a little worse, they will be happier at work.
When I got to play in the major European leagues, it would be a dream to think that it would be so easy.
Regardless of the country in the four major leagues, racial discrimination is very serious.
Moreover, the yellow race is ranked among the races, but in their eyes, the yellow race is the lowest class.
To succeed in the big four leagues, you need to have a big heart.
Because in addition to being on the pitch and off the pitch, there is also a lot of trouble to face.
Let's say you're a well-paid programmer who earns $3 million a year, but everyone else has bad intentions toward you, both by your colleagues and in the city. Even if you walk on the road, someone may scold you. Lin Supo is reluctant to lick their stinky feet, even if he is going to go to the four major leagues in the future, he will go after he has enough status to play famously.
For his career, Lin Supo already has a complete plan, but fortunately, he is still young, even if he plays in the Russian Super League for 5 years, he is only 22 years old. In world football in the 90s, he was still a young player at the age of 22, and it was difficult to play in the main league at this age.
Maybe you won't even get a chance to play in the first team.
In the second league game against Nizhny Novgorod, Lin Supo once again showed what it means to be an atypical striker.
His defensive stats in this game were the best in the game.
The opponent's skill stolen by soul ingestion is close defense.
Coupled with the skill of the mind catcher, during the game, he bullied the entire defense line of Nizhny Novgorod.
The opponent's 21-year-old player Yamazorov cried and told the media after the game that Lin Supo deliberately disturbed his mentality, and he received a red card for this, and if it wasn't for the opponent provoking him, he would definitely not lose his mind.
Because of this accusation, many people changed their impression of Lin Supo.
Of course, Yamazorov, who cried in the media, was also ridiculed, mocking him like a.
