Chapter 83: Little Park Ji-sung
Press conference?
This thing Chen Mo experienced for the first time, and he was a little curious in his heart, so he hurriedly ran back to the locker room under the jokes of his teammates.
After taking a shower, he didn't bother to blow his hair, and rubbed his wet black hair with a towel, Chen Mo put on a white T-shirt and rushed out of the locker room with great interest.
"Oh, little one, that ball was great!"
"Go and let the world know your name, haha."
The scene of the press conference was in a room not far from the locker room, and the Argentine staff in the passage also learned that Chen Mo, a little guy, was going to be interviewed by reporters, and they all smiled and encouraged him when he passed by.
Responding to these well-meaning people with a smile, he turned a few intersections, and soon came to the door of the press hall, Pekerman, who was wearing a suit, was standing at the door with his hands crossed, he smiled and put his arm around Chen Mo's shoulder, and said with a wink: "After the meeting, if a reporter asks a sharp question, or a question you don't want to answer, don't worry, I will help you deal with it." ”
"Thank you, Chief."
"Haha, that's what I'm supposed to do. But you don't have to worry too much. You're young, and those reporters can be harsh against senior players like fans, but for a little guy like you, you're probably going to be open. Let's go and face the first press conference in your life! ”
As he spoke, Pekerman opened the door of the press room, and the dazzling flashing lights instantly filled Chen Mo's entire eyeballs. A little nervous, but more excited, the two walked to the press table and sat down under Pekerman's encouraging eyes.
.
With the recent World Cup qualifiers in full swing around the world, the newspaper's sports section is strained, and the young journalist John Joyce, who has just received his press card, has been assigned by the newspaper to cover the first round of the World Youth Championship in Argentina versus Finland.
Although he was still a rookie journalist, Joyce did a lot of homework before he arrived, researching the information about the Argentine players all night long.
The company's boss told him it would be better to focus on the hottest River Plate talent of the last two years, Saviola, and the Argentine team's number 10, Roma Gnori, as well as Kolonic, who has just joined AC Milan.
These three are currently the hottest stars of the Argentine team, and it is more likely that they will be interviewed after the game.
As for Chen Mo, who holds the title of "the youngest World Youth Championship player in history", the company's leaders believe that although this little guy is full of gimmicks, his too young body is impossible to perform well in the game, and it is naturally even more impossible to arrange a post-game interview.
The company leader said this, but Joyce did not agree, he was a very careful and cautious person, and at the same time a fan who really liked football and studied it seriously.
When he first began to study Chen Mo's past video recordings, Joyce was just in the spirit of having more research records to be correct, but when he saw the back, especially when the game video came more than half a year ago, that is, Chen Mo and Messi began to start steadily in the U15 league, partnering in the midfield and midfield, he immediately found that Chen Mo was terrible.
Chen Mo's style of play is different from most people, he is playing with his brain, although his speed and strength are already first-class among his peers, he can directly use his physical fitness in the midfield and on the side to eat opponents, and often have wonderful pictures such as forced overtaking or tank tackles, but he prefers to seek cooperation with his teammates and use the opponent's position to score goals!
The characteristic of this kind of player is that as long as he is not crushed by complete strength, the better the sense of cooperation of his teammates, the better he can play!
And his team is Argentina, the favorite to win the championship this year, with so many big-name stars in the team, as long as the opposing coach is not stupid, he will not be able to withstand the maximum pressure when attacking, which also shows that he has a chance to play a brilliant performance in the game!
With this in mind, Joyce began to dig deep into Chen Mo's various information and be fully prepared to ask more interesting questions at the press conference.
Looking at the peers beside him who were anxious one by one, writing quickly on the paper, and holding the phone between their heads and shoulders to ask Chen Mo's information, the corners of Joyce's mouth on the reclining chair hooked a smug smile.
At this moment, the door of the press hall opened, and a handsome young man in a white shirt and jeans and an old man in a suit collar walked into the venue under the light of flashing lights.
This little guy is more handsome.
Somehow, seeing that Chen Mo's first thought turned out to be such a nonsensical thing, Joyce shook his head amusedly, and he sat up straight and prepared to ask a question.
Soon, as the brief greeting was over and the time for reporters to ask questions, Joyce stretched out her arms and got the first chance to ask questions.
"Hello Mr. Pekerman, I am John Joyce, a reporter for the British newspaper The Sun. First of all, congratulations to Chen Mo, you just scored a very, very wonderful goal, so I want to ask, at the age of fourteen, the first time you played for the Argentine national team, and the first time you scored such a beautiful goal, such a wonderful day, can you share with us your mood at this moment, or how you made the decision to stop the ball with your back and divide the ball? ”
Joyce turned the manuscript, Chen Mo nodded, approached the microphone and smiled, "I'm still very excited." As you know, my maternal great-grandfather was a hero of Argentina and as a descendant I certainly want to bring glory to Argentina and everybody here is very good to me, Saviola, Colocchini, Dalessandro, they all take very good care of me in training, and I can't play so comfortably on the pitch without the help of my teammates.
If it wasn't for their help, I would have been penetrated defensively. Especially the last goal, I wouldn't have been able to score without Coloccini's long pass, and of course, I was very handsome at the end, wasn't it? ”
Chen Mo winked playfully, and the reporters all laughed.
Chen Mo continued: "As for the last man who scored the ball, I actually didn't think too much, mainly because I had no other choice at that time, as long as there was one more step to stop the ball, the counterattack would be terminated, so I chose a more risky way, but fortunately, I unloaded the ball beautifully and scored beautifully." ”
"Oh, funny little one."
Journalists are very happy, and no one doesn't like to talk to cheerful people who can also provide big news.
Joyce also smiled: "You can see that you are a very confident little guy." However, the next question may be a bit sharp, so you have to think about it before you answer it. I've studied a lot of your game footage before, and I understand you to be a player with a lot more attacking talent than defence, so what do you think about Mr. Pekerman asking you to play as a midfielder? ”
The whole audience was stunned, and the question was indeed very acute, especially when the opposing coach was still there.
Pekerman was about to take the microphone, Chen Mo shook his head, picked up the microphone and said, "Mr. Reporter, your question is great, but I think differently from you. First of all, in my eyes, defense is just as important as offense, and the great Mr. Jordan once said that "defense wins championships".
Perhaps the most profound picture in the audience's memory will always be the wonderful goal with that foot, the upside-down golden hook and the Cloud Piercing Sword or something, but in fact, the excellent defense before the goal is the key to the team's victory, without defense, everything is in the air. What's more, whether the core of our team's midfield, whether it is Dalessandro or Romagnori, their strength is far stronger than mine, do you think that I will be like in the anime, score a wonderful goal and then soar in strength, and finally sit in the main force of the team, right? Oh, come on, I'm only fourteen years old, okay, if it's you, will you let me sit in the main force and play the core? ”
Crackling, Joyce was a little confused, it was the first time he had met such a child who could speak, as a fan, the other party's words were undoubtedly fine, but how to report this kind of gimmicky words?
Joyce was a little annoyed and wanted to say something, but Peckerman took the microphone: "Okay, this gentleman, you've asked enough, please leave the opportunity to others." ”
After discovering that Chen Mo was very talkative, the reporters became more enthusiastic, one question after another, Chen Mo did not refuse, and soon the interview was coming to an end, at this moment, a yellow-skinned female reporter raised her hand to ask questions.
Asian?
Joyce was a little curious, but soon, the female reporter's question left the audience confused.
"I'm Bae so-ji, a reporter for South Korea's East Asia Newspaper, Smecta. The very exciting game just now was also watched by our domestic viewers in South Korea through the TV broadcast, because of Chen Mo's children's abundant physical fitness, many of our Korean fans and viewers responded that he was very similar to our country's star Park Ji-sung, and affectionately called him Park Ji-sung, Smecta. So, in the next match between Argentina and our South Korea, Mr. Pekerman, will you let this [Little Park Ji-sung] player appear? ”
Little Park Ji-sung?
Looking at the Korean female reporter in front of her with an unnatural buttocks and a shiny and slippery face, a question mark slowly popped up on Joyce's head,
Not only Joyce, but Chen Mo and Pekerman, who were sitting on the stage, were also stunned.
Pekerman had a strange expression and shrugged: "I'm sorry, this Korean lady, although I would love to answer your question, but... I'm sure no coach will tell their opponents their tactical plans in advance. ”
As soon as these words came out, it was a bit nonsensical that as an opponent, he actually asked the opposing coach about the tactical arrangements at the press conference. Pekerman looked at Chen Mo and continued: "In addition, Xiao Mo is a treasure of Argentine football that God has given us, and I don't want the media to put anyone else's name on his head except his father's surname and Stabile. ”
"Mr. Pekerman, you may not know it, but Park Ji-sung is a once-in-a-lifetime football talent in our South Korea."
"Football genius? Maybe you have some misconceptions about football geniuses. ”
Pekerman raised his eyebrows again, patted Chen Mo on the shoulder and smiled, "If you don't know what a real genius is, I suggest you come to the scene to watch Chen Mo play." Alright, that's the end of the interview, thank you. ”
