Chapter 124 Before the Sino-Korean War

Under the upsurge of national sentiment, Gao Zheng's words in the locker room, "Life and death are bearish, if you don't accept it, do it" was spread, and it quickly became popular on the Internet.

It became the best slogan for the Sino-Korean war.

It was also reported by Korean media at the same time. Of course, the style of comments under Korean media news can be imagined by everyone with their buttocks. It must be one-sided cynicism.

Gao Zheng himself was quite surprised that he became popular on the Internet with such a sentence. When the media found him, he said that he had no time to pay attention to what was said on the Internet: "Ah, I haven't been on Weibo for a long time... This shows that Everyone's ardent hope for us... Pressure? Of course there is pressure, but facing pressure is the daily life of professional players. I don't think it is necessary to exaggerate the significance of this pressure... What do Korean fans say? How can I control what they say? They What I like to say, I am a Chinese player. Portrait? I am not angry, this is a routine operation of Korean fans. Didn’t we see it in the 2002 World Cup? They were a portrait for Klose P at that time... Football still speaks with its feet, and I believe we can beat South Korea. I am healthy and have no 'Koreanphobia'."

At the pre-match press conference against South Korea, Gao Zheng, as a player representative, talked about many recent hot topics.

At that time, a media reporter commented on his response: "Gao Zheng appeared to be very frank and sincere. He did not avoid those sensitive issues, nor did he perfunctory. I believe that behind his frankness and sincerity is confidence, It is precisely because of his self-confidence that he can be honest this time..."

Of course, the Korean media may not think so. Many Korean media participated in the pre-match press conference. In their subsequent news releases, they described Gao Zheng as an arrogant and arrogant guy: "... Maybe Gao Zheng thought it was still the Ming Dynasty, but even at that time, we had the best admiral in Asia, Admiral Yi Sun-shin!"

Li sun-shin can be said to be a national hero in South Korea, and here the South Korean media obviously want to refer to Sun Xingmin.

In terms of comparison between the two, Gao Zheng is better than Sun Xingmin in terms of social status and current performance. Comparing only two people, it seems that it is a bit like Ming Dynasty and North Korea. However, because of Yi Sun-shin, Koreans feel that they are facing Gao A "Ming Dynasty" like Zheng can also stand up straight.

There are also South Korean media who believe that Gao Zheng slandered Korean football and fans, and mentioned the 2002 World Cup just to pour dirty water on South Korea.

Under these reports, one can imagine the reaction of Korean fans.

But after this press conference, Gao Zheng did not make any response.

The game is getting closer and closer,

At that time, let's talk about football.

※※※

On January 20, all the Asian Cup group matches ended. Australia, South Korea, China, Uzbekistan, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Japan and Iraq broke out from their respective groups and became the quarterfinals of this Asian Cup.

According to the principle of group matches, the Chinese team will face South Korea at 9:30 p.m. on January 22. Before that, the host Australia will take the lead. Their opponent in the quarterfinals is Uzbekistan.

On January 23, Iran played against Iraq, the Iran-Iraq war on the football field. Later that same day, it was the match between Japan and the United Arab Emirates.

The first quarter-finals kicked off at 6:30 p.m. local time. After 90 minutes of the game, Australia defeated Uzbekistan 2-0 at home and entered the semi-finals first.

At this time in China, some people can't wait to turn on the TV, waiting for the game to start, even though it is an hour and a half before the game starts...

Because Australia implements daylight saving time, their eastern time zone is three hours earlier than Beijing time. The kick-off time there is 9:30 p.m., and China is actually 6:30 p.m.

Many families have even just had their meals.

For this game, many people either had dinner in advance, or simply invited three or five friends to come to the house, prepared good wine and food, and prepared to drink while watching the game.

For example, Director Zhao and Director Yang are like this. In Director Yang’s home, the wife cooks a table of good dishes, and invites Director Zhao and Guo Wei to come to the house and watch the game while drinking.

But at Gao Zheng's house, it was even more lively. When Gao Zheng bought a new house for the two elders, the two of them thought it was too big, saying that there were not so many relatives and friends here, so how could such a big house be needed?

As a result, they now found that the house might still be small—the living room and dining room were crowded with people, including city leaders in charge of sports, and a large number of reporters. They carried cameras, and the room was packed to the brim.

They all came to watch the football with Gao Zheng's parents.

For this game that the people of the whole country are very concerned about, these leaders also want to catch the heat and show their faces.

But if they lose the game, they will probably have to pretend that they have never been here...

If Gao Zheng was at home, he would definitely refuse the arrangement of the leaders, but the two elders are honest people, ordinary people, and they are full of faces when facing the "big officials" who can only be seen on the news programs of the city TV station. Chunfeng came up to shake hands with him, expressing that he wanted to watch the game with him and cheer for Gao Zheng, but they refused to come.

So I could only sit next to the "big official" with a stiff smile on my face, and waited for the game to start under the watchful eyes of many reporters.

Feng Shiyao had asked Xiao Yingying to turn off all the work on January 22, so this evening, in her rented house, she and Xiao Yingying were curled up on the sofa in pajamas with disheveled hair. The coffee table on the table is filled with all kinds of snacks that the two of them love to eat, such as duck tongue, duck neck, chicken feet, stewed vegetables, peanut melon seeds, fruits, potato chips, shrimp crackers, etc... There are so many.

This is the "dinner" they prepared for themselves.

Xiao Yingying had a chicken paw in one hand and a duck neck in the other. She was eating vigorously. When she found Feng Shiyao, she was holding water to drink, and asked, "Sister Feng, are you hungry?"

"I'll eat it now, what else will I eat during the game?"

"Hey, if you don't eat now, do you still have time to eat during the game?"

Feng Shiyao thought about it carefully, and found that what Xiao Yingying said made sense, so she also picked up an apple.

At the same time, the warm-up images of the Chinese players were being shown on TV, and Gao Zheng appeared most frequently on the images.

He and his teammates pressed each other's legs, talking and laughing.

The host at the back was saying: "It seems that the mentality of the Chinese team players is relatively relaxed. This is good news. In fact, we have played a lot with the Korean team, so we are already very familiar..."

While the Chinese team was warming up, the South Korean team was also warming up on the other side of the court.

Korean fans and Chinese fans are already sitting in the stands. The Chinese team is wearing a white home jersey, while the South Korean team is wearing a red home jersey.

However, because the cheering T-shirts of the Chinese fans are mainly red, so when you look around, the stands are full of red, and you can't tell which ones are Chinese fans and which ones are Korean fans.

It can only be distinguished from the waving national flags. China's five-star red flag is mainly red, while South Korea's Taegeuk flag is mainly white. Looking at the past in this way, it is found that there are obviously more Chinese fans than Korean fans. On the one hand, this Asian Cup has already organized a lot of fans in China. For such an important game in South Korea, more Chinese fans will come from China to cheer for the national team. On the other hand, there are a large number of overseas Chinese in Australia, as well as Chinese studying and working here. In the first three games, the Chinese team basically enjoyed the home court treatment.

In terms of the number of fans, the Chinese team overwhelmed the South Korean team.

However, football matches do not depend on the number of fans to determine the outcome, otherwise the Chinese team would have been the World Cup champion long ago.

In the end, it still depends on the players on both sides of the field.

Gao Zheng and Sun Xingmin, as the leaders of the two teams, are the most concerned objects of the media, and these two people appear frequently in the live broadcast.

The on-site reporter of Korean TV station was reporting on the sidelines, analyzing for the Korean fans in front of the TV: "...Although Sun Xingmin is slightly inferior to Gao Zheng, the overall strength of the Korean team is stronger, and it is far stronger. For the Chinese team. So when the strength of the two leading stars is almost the same, the overall strength will determine the outcome..."

It was a very coincidental coincidence that Chinese fans gathered in the Korean warm-up half, so a banner happened to appear on the live broadcast of Korean TV.

It seems that in order to prevent the Korean players from understanding it, another banner was carefully prepared under the Chinese banner, with the same meaning written in the same large Korean:

"It is the duty of every citizen to perform military service in accordance with the law. Let us send Sun Xingmin to serve in the army!"
