Chapter 265 "Illegal Smuggling Gang"

When the weather, location, and people are all in place, it is the day when the national football team enters the World Cup.

Bai Xiaotian really wants to use his own power to bring about changes in Chinese football. Whether it is a football live broadcast room or a football school, although his own power is meager, someone must do it.

From the bottom of his heart, Bai Xiaotian wants to play in the national football team and help the team enter the World Cup.But now his own strength is not enough, or even though he has already won the Europa League championship, Bai Xiaotian is still a little unconfident.

Just when Bai Xiaotian was worrying about gains and losses, Shen Xiangfu once again announced the third good news to everyone.

"Because of the importance of this competition, the Argentine organizing committee has recruited many college student volunteers from nearby universities to come to various national teams to work as translators, tour guides, secretaries, etc. Fortunately, a beautiful young Argentine college student was selected. She named her and chose to come to our national youth team. You can see her tomorrow!"

"Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!" Everyone, including Xu Liang beside Bai Xiaotian, shouted loudly.

Shen Xiangfu is very satisfied with this kind of morale. In his opinion, it is more important for the team members to maintain this fighting spirit than the extra training these days.

The first is the encouragement of the leaders, then the bright future, and finally the "peak of life".Shen Xiangfu is very clear about what this group of young and energetic guys need. For some team members, the first two items may be too far away for him, but the third news is definitely for everyone's benefit.

These young men can be regarded as somewhat worldly, and many of them don't have girlfriends yet.Compared with Chinese girls, foreign beauties still have some differences in evaluating the appearance of boys.So even for players who are not very confident about their looks, it is not impossible for them to meet foreign girls.

With the victory in the first game, there are three more such good news. The boys of the national youth team have long put all "dissatisfaction" behind them.Under the influence of alcohol, everyone was excited. It is said that many people wasted a lot of toilet paper that night.

Indeed, due to different national conditions, the treatment of each team is also different.

Some teams live in luxury hotels, and some teams can only live in small hotels with seven or eight people.Some teams have local training partners, and some teams don't even have a training ground.In terms of the personal freedom of the players, due to the lessons learned by the Chilean players, the national youth players are basically in a state of "closed".

In fact, this is nothing. The team members have experienced many such things since they were young, and they have formed a habit.But luckily, during a visit by a domestic reporter during the day, the national youth team accidentally learned about the life of the Ukrainian youth team in Argentina.

According to a staff member of the Ventara Hotel where the Ukrainian team stayed, the Ukrainian team will not spend the first half of the night in the hotel every day. "They found two very good bars and a casino here, and they went to those places every night to play, and they didn't go back to the hotel until the early hours of the morning to sleep."

While celebrating the victory of the national youth team, all the Ukrainian players went to a local Internet cafe to browse and chat online immediately after the game.

In contrast, the "treatment" of the National Youth Team and others is simply very different.Fortunately, Shen Xiangfu still has some means, using three established realities to smooth out the imbalance in the hearts of the team members.

While the National Youth players were celebrating their victory, Chairman Yan of our Football Association had a little bit of trouble.

On this day, under the leadership of Yan Shiduo, chairman of the Football Association, a "delegation" composed of two Football Association officials and eight reporters arrived in Frankfurt, Germany after ten hours of travel, waiting for a turning point.

"Passengers on flight LH526 bound for Santiago, please note that your flight is now boarding..."

The sound of the broadcast interrupted everyone's discussion, and everyone was very excited when they learned that they could go one step closer to their destination.

At this moment, God grinned, and this group of people made a joke.

"Eh? Why do you still stop by Santiago? No one told us when we bought the tickets!" The sharp-eyed Football Association press officer noticed the difference. The boarding prompt screen displayed the words "Santiago-Buenos Aires", which obviously did not match the previous information.

"We've gone to one more country now..."

"Santiago is very close to Mendoza, if we knew this, we might as well fly directly to Mendoza!"

"It's good to stop for a while, so as not to be too tired after flying for 14 hours."

Everyone was chattering, and no one doubted the authenticity of this "news".

"Tou Er Yan, you are in business class. You can go upstairs and board the plane directly from the business class lounge. You don't need to queue here." After asking the airport staff, a reporter greeted Chairman Yan.

"No need, I'll line up with everyone, no specialization!" Gum Duo (Chairman Yan, although it was a typo, but when it comes to the full name in the future, I will use this instead) waved his hand generously.

Facts have proved that sitting on the scene with a lot of eye gum has indeed played a big role.

"Huh? Are you going to fly to Argentina?" The staff stopped the group.After receiving an affirmative answer from the No.1 reporter who handed over the passport, he continued to ask, "Then where are you planning to go?"

"Mendoza!" the reporter replied in fluent English, and took out his Buenos Aires-to-Mendoza ticket.

Hearing this, some people in the delegation had doubts in their hearts.The air ticket I presented was clearly from Frankfurt to Buenos Aires. How did this staff member know that everyone was going to the next place?

However, after hearing this answer, the staff member asked in confusion, "Mendoza? Where is this? I've never heard of this country!"

"Hey, he doesn't even know that Mendoza is a city in Argentina!" the press officer in the crowd snickered.

"Mendoza is a city in Argentina, and we are going there via transit!" The person negotiating with the staff patiently explained.Indeed, a European may really not know the cities of South American countries.

"Mendoza is a city in Argentina? Are you sure it belongs to Argentina like Buenos Aires?"

"Of course, the only difference between the two is that Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina." Now, everyone else felt that this staff member was a little ridiculous.

However, the rigorous German staff did not smile at all. After saying sorry, they immediately called to inquire.

"What did he do?" Some of the crowd didn't understand English.

"It's okay, his knowledge of geography is not good, so he called to ask if Mendoza belongs to Argentina." The reporter surnamed Zhang who was negotiating with the German staff laughed.

After hearing such an explanation, everyone laughed.

But before everyone laughed, the German came back with a lot of lawsuits.

"How? Did you find out?" The reporter surnamed Zhang asked confidently.

"I'm sorry, sir." The staff member explained, "You can't board the plane because your visa is a transit visa. And you are going to Argentina, which requires a tourist visa."

The German explained calmly and patiently, but the reporter surnamed Zhang couldn't help being a little jealous: "But this is the only visa issued by BJ's Argentine embassy. It can't be wrong. Is there any problem with this?"

Everyone realized something was wrong from the hasty tone, and asked one after another.Just as the reporter surnamed Zhang was explaining, the Germans were asking whether everyone’s visas are the same.

The press officer handed her her ordinary business passport. "Oh, God, I've never seen this kind of visa for this lady. I don't know what kind of visa it is."

"Isn't this okay too?" In desperation, the press officer handed over the official passport with a lot of eyeballs and a note from the diplomatic department.According to regulations, those who hold official passports enjoy the mutual visa exemption treatment between China and Arab states.

"Oh, you don't have any problems." After a brief glance at the note, the German immediately withdrew his intention to send the delegation away, and asked about the purpose of going to Argentina.

The reporter surnamed Zhang explained to him that officials from the Chinese Football Association and journalists from newspapers, radio stations, and TV stations among us were going to Argentina to participate in the World Youth Championship.

"Oh, I'm sorry. However, if this is your purpose, you should hold another visa, which is different from the current one. Yours is a transit visa. For example, if you go from Buenos Aires to Santiago, it's almost the same, but you don't have a visa for Chile."

"Why am I going to Santiago when I have nothing to do? We are only going to Argentina! And before that, we didn't even know that the plane was going to stop in Santiago." The staff's words seemed a little thoughtless, and the reporter surnamed Zhang was a little annoyed.

As he said that, the reporter surnamed Zhang collected all the passports and showed the staff: All eight of our journalists hold the same visa, and the press officer also handed in the original invitation letter issued by the Argentine Football Association in time.

"My God, I'm afraid we're in big trouble." The German started sweating and went to his superiors.

After the delegation explained the whole story to the supervisor of the staff member just now, the official said that he would immediately call to inquire.

When the officials went to make a phone call, the staff member explained: "It's not that I deliberately made things difficult for you, I was responsible for you. If you go to Argentina like this, you will have to pay a large fine, which is unfair to you because it is almost three times the price." He pointed to the price of more than 2 yuan on the ticket.

After a long time, "What if they insist on not letting us board the plane? Or should we tell him that we will board the plane even if we pay the fine?" The press officer had prepared for the worst.

"Didn't a reporter just pass through Frankfurt yesterday and arrived in Mendoza? Their visas are the same as ours, so at least I can guarantee that we will not have any trouble as long as we arrive in Argentina. It is their tradition that the Germans are serious about their affairs. They just perform their duties more strictly. Now we only need to pass their hurdle." The analysis of reporter Zhang made everyone feel at ease.

The airport officials came back and confirmed Yan Shiduo's note again, and confirmed that he was the leader of this "delegation", and then said that the airport would let everyone go after copying everyone's invitation letter.

The German side confirmed the authenticity of the Argentine World Youth Championship, and at the same time, the leader of this "delegation" held a passport that enjoyed visa-free treatment, which convinced the Germans that they were not an illegal smuggling gang.

After Eye Gum Duo met Shen Xiangfu, he told this story immediately.For a while, the atmosphere became more relaxed.

"It's even more funny later!" said the press officer, Ms. Cheng, with a smile. "After a 14-hour flight, we asked the flight attendant when we were about to land, and we found out that the flight was actually going to Santiago via Buenos Aires. ""
