Chapter 242 The Bear from the North (5600 Monthly Ticket Plus Updates)

"A Bear from the North" is the title used by the local media in Naples to report that Chen Yingxiong passed the medical examination.The doctor who examined Chen Yingxiong was quoted in the news as saying: "His body is as strong as a bear!"

The accompanying photo is a photo of Chen Yingxiong shaking hands and smiling with club chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis.

Under the bright and bright sunshine in southern Italy, Chen Yingxiong in the photo is smiling very happily.

Just looking at his appearance, he is a sunny boy. Who would have thought that this person caused headaches for the entire Russian media, and made Advocaat feel helpless. I am so anxious that it has not stopped until now. It is estimated that I will have to toss until the Olympics, and maybe it will have a far-reaching impact...

He's not an easy guy to get along with, he's a troublesome guy, and he's a big troublesome guy, super troublesome guy.

But obviously, the media in Naples lacks understanding of Chen Yingxiong. They know that Chen Yingxiong often goes to nightclubs in St. Petersburg, often quarrels with the media, provokes opponents and opponent fans...but they don't know enough.

They also lack the most intuitive understanding.After all, they just listened to others and saw it from other places.

Many reporters even saw Chen Yingxiong's performance yesterday, and they were full of affection for this kid, thinking that he must have been misunderstood by the outside world—how could such a sunny, cheerful and lively kid be a super troublesome person in everyone's eyes Woolen cloth?
But it doesn't matter, Chen Yingxiong quickly let the group of Italians see him once.

※ ※ ※

On July 20st, the sun was still shining brightly.At the St. Paul Stadium, dozens of journalists flocked, of which more than 20 were from Italy, and another [-] were from China.

Chen Yingxiong is not the first Chinese player to join a Serie A team, but he will most likely become the first Chinese player to play in Serie A—his predecessor Ma Mingyu joined Perugia, but never represented Perugia. Ruggia played in Serie A.

Therefore, Chen Yingxiong has received the attention of the media of the two countries.

In recent years, with the strengthening of China's national strength, the name China has appeared more and more frequently on the international stage.Although the level of Chinese football is not very good, many foreign media are very interested in everything about China in view of the rise of China's overall strength.

In addition, this year's Olympic Games will be held in BJ. As a Chinese sports representative, Chen Yingxiong joined Naples and landed in Serie A. Of course, it is also an important reason why many Italian media paid attention to his appearance.They feel that for Chinese sports, this must be a day worth writing about.

It can be seen from so many Chinese reporters who came to the scene.

Chen Yingxiong turned China's domestic toss upside down, so he didn't care.There was chaos in the country, but this did not affect his expansion in Italy.It also does not affect his public popularity among Chinese fans and media.Being expelled from the Olympic team and banned by the Chinese Football Association did not affect his personal image at all, but it also sublimated his image-he was promoted by those pro-him media as a person who "dare to challenge the evil forces". A hero who declares war, defies power, and bravely says no to the underworld of Chinese football", his status in the hearts of fans has risen instead of falling.

Even those Chinese companies who were hesitant about him to endorse their own products before dispelled their concerns and planned to sign Chen Yingxiong's product endorsement rights.

Chen Yingxiong "is a blessing in disguise" - if it must be said that being expelled from the Olympic team, unable to participate in the Olympic Games, and banned by the Football Association is a "disaster" for Chen Yingxiong...

In addition to these reporters, about 8000 other fans came to the St. Paul Stadium to welcome Chen Yingxiong.

This number is incomparable with those superstars, and it is even more incomparable with Maradona's 8 joining ceremony.

But for Chen Yingxiong, who joined Zenit St. Petersburg and was still unknown, after he played two games in the first team, everyone still didn't know how he joined Zenit, it was already a very grand welcome ceremony up.

Chen Yingxiong was not so arrogant that when he joined Naples, he asked tens of thousands of people to buy tickets to attend his joining ceremony.

He just thought that one day, he would make the joining ceremony a grand event that the whole world would pay attention to!

※ ※ ※

According to the procedure of the welcome ceremony, firstly, the media collectively witnessed the scene of Chen Yingxiong signing the contract and took photos to commemorate it.

Then there will be a press conference, where Chen Yingxiong will answer questions from reporters.

The last thing is to go to the stadium to meet the fans, show off your football skills, kick the prepared "gift" - football to the fans, and then hold up the Naples scarf to take pictures in front of the reporters.

Li Bi.

Signing the contract was purely for show. In fact, Chen Yingxiong had already signed the contract. It was just a show.

Everyone is also very clear.But... the audience needs this symbolic scene.

The highlight is actually the latter two items.

Chen Yingxiong followed his agent Dracula, club chairman De Laurentiis, team general manager Marino, and head coach Rhea into the press conference in a suit and leather shoes.

Cameras in the hands of photojournalists flashed their flashes.

The clicking sound of the shutter is endless.

Chen Yingxiong finally has a feeling of "I am a star"...

He couldn't help puffing out his chest amidst the flashing lights and the sound of the shutter, and raised his head slightly, looking very confident... even a little conceited.

Then he sat down and started the press conference.

※ ※ ※

In front of the outside world, the management of the club is still in the hands of the general manager of the club, Marino, so he is also responsible for introducing Chen Yingxiong's speech.

In his speech, Marino welcomed Chen Yingxiong to join Naples, and introduced Chen Yingxiong's past achievements to the news media.

"... he scored 58 goals in 21 league games for Zenit St Petersburg, and in the season he just left, he scored 19 goals in [-] league games. , you can already understand how good a striker he is? Not to mention that at the age of [-], he has become the best scorer since the Uefa Cup was restructured. The Naples club took a fancy to his super scoring ability, and his youth..."

Such a speech is nothing new, it is basically old-fashioned, and it is not interesting.What the reporters were looking forward to was not such official articles, but the opportunity to confront Chen Yingxiong directly.

They all know that Chen Yingxiong is a controversial player, so how controversial is he?Is he such a troublesome figure as the Russian media reports?
When the Naples press officer Baldari signaled that the reporters were free to ask questions, the reporters present raised their arms almost simultaneously.

This startled the news officer and made him stunned.

For a while, I didn't know who to ask the question.

At this time, De Laurentiis laughed beside him, attracting everyone's attention.

The president of the club laughed because this scene was so funny, and every reporter had an eager look on his face, as horny as those women with orgasms.

After attracting everyone's attention, De Laurentiis waved his hand: "Call it whoever you want." He said to the press officer of his club.

So Baldari ordered the reporter of Gazzetta dello Sport who he was more familiar with.

"Naples once had a glorious history in the era of Maradona. How do you feel about being able to join Naples, hero?" This kind of question is quite satisfactory, causing the Italian colleagues around to glance at him with dissatisfaction—you Isn't this a waste of time?Press conference time is limited, how can we ask these questions we all know the answer to?

"I am very happy to join Naples." Chen Yingxiong can't speak Italian, so his agent Dracula once again worked part-time as his translator. "It's a team with great promise. I'm also interested in being able to play in the Italian Football League."

Sure enough, Chen Yingxiong's answer did not surprise the reporters at all, it was too plain, any player who joined the new club would say that, it was nothing more than a little more sensational.

So after the second reporter stood up, the rhythm of the scene suddenly accelerated.

"Do you know the past history of Naples?" The reporter from the Naples local media asked Chen Yingxiong with a little pride.

For the natives of Naples, the past history of course refers to the brilliant achievements of the Maradona era.That was the only proud time in the history of their club, and it is also a passionate time that many Naples fans still remember.

But obviously Chen Yingxiong got it wrong...

"I know Napoli have been bankrupt before and it was bad. But that's the end, because this team now has a lot of good players like me!"

Sure enough, Chen Yingxiong didn't hold back for too long, and immediately revealed his true colors...

The Naples local reporter who asked the question was stunned for a moment, his brain still couldn't connect the answer with his own question.

He sat down awkwardly, and other reporters were pointed up to continue asking questions.

It took several minutes for the reporter to sit down and react—God!His answer just now was too rampant, right?

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Yingxiong again.

The person on the stage is answering the question of reporter No.3.

"Maradona? He is a great player, but I think Naples fans can't always live in the memory of the Maradona era, they must look forward. Maradona can't help the current Naples, everything depends on us..."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the interpreter Dracula.

Dracula asked, "Are you sure you want to say that?"

Chen Yingxiong nodded, he didn't think there was any problem with this answer: "Just follow along."

After Dracula translated Chen Yingxiong's words, many reporters who were bowing their heads and taking shorthand raised their heads one after another, with surprised expressions on their faces.But following this surprised look, a gleam of excitement flashed!

coming! coming!
The legendary news is coming! !
And even the club chairman De Laurentiis turned his head to look at Chen Yingxiong with interest after hearing these words, with a playful smile on his face.
