Godfather of national football

Chapter 194 World Cup Theme Song
"Flying Flags" or translated as "Flags Open to Victory", this is the theme song of the World Cup in South Africa, created by the minstrel "Conan" (K'naan).

This theme song has a brisk rhythm, catchy words, and inspirational lyrics, so it quickly became popular all over the world in a short period of time.

After the end of the World Cup group stage, FIFA plans to reshoot a MV to further upgrade the enthusiasm of the World Cup. For this reason, FIFA will invite some coaches and players from the top 16 teams.

The Chinese team was invited, either by the coach or by a player. In the end, Li Guo accepted the invitation without hesitation.

The Dutch team, the Chinese team's opponent in the quarter-finals, was also invited. Van Persie will participate in the filming of the MV, but Argentina is a bit special. FIFA very much hopes that Messi will participate, but it was rejected by the Argentine Football Association. Maradona will participate on behalf of Argentina.

*****
When shooting in the studio, Maradona poked his head over and said to Li Guo, "I heard that this guy is from Somalia."

Li Guo knew that Conan was a singer from Mogadishu, but he didn't know what Maradona meant. After all, it's always bad to make fun of other people's country.

But the old horse obviously had a big mouth to a certain extent, he continued: "Li Guo, do you think this guy looks like a pirate?"

Li Guo couldn't hold back, he chuckled, "Diego, don't cause trouble, the most important thing is, don't hurt me,"

"When did you become so timid?" Maradona asked with a smile.

"I'm not the king of the ball. If I say something wrong, no one will wipe my ass."

"By the way, Li Guo, your fate is really great. You are in the same group as Argentina, and you haven't been eliminated yet."

"Hehe, Diego, you are really lucky. You are in the same group as the Chinese team, and you even advanced to the first place in the group."

"I bother,"

"What are you talking about, don't forget, I won against Argentina in the Olympics."

Maradona stopped laughing and blushed, "That's Batista's incompetence. Can I be the same as him? I'm the greatest player in the world."

Li Guo said with a smirk: "The greatest player in the world is Messi. I heard that FIFA invited Messi, and you forced him to come."

As soon as this remark came out, Maradona was really angry. If he was 10 years younger, he might have waved his fist.

"Leo is disciplined, he trains every day,"

"So you're not a self-disciplined person?"

Maradona thought that he and Li Guo must have hit each other, otherwise the two would not always meet, and this Li Guo was the only one who dared to tease him.

Maradona shrugged, "My Chinese friend, anyway, I beat you in the group stage, 2 to 1. I will remember this when I see you later, and I am defeated."

Li Guo really wanted to see Maradona's expression after losing to Germany in advance, but there are some things that cannot be said now.

"No, it's 1 to 1." Li Guo said.

"What 1 to 1?"

"Historical record, I won the Olympics, I lost the World Cup, 1-1."

Maradona thought to himself that there are people in this world who are more rascal than himself, which is rare.

The old horse stood on tiptoe and patted Li Guo, "Friend, you'd better not come to Argentina, or I will definitely beat you up."

"Don't worry, even if I go to Argentina, I will still be looking for Messi, not you."

Now it's Li Guo's turn to sing his part. Conan's idea is to sing a short part each, just like a group of stars singing.

After the audition, Conan was very dissatisfied. The interlacing was like a mountain. This group of people in the studio is a tragedy, and they are not serious. For example, Li Guo and Maradona are always making small moves and chatting secretly.

Finally Conan called a timeout.

"I know you are superstars and you are very busy, but please understand that I did not invite you here, but FIFA and sponsors, so please take your precious time and listen to my arrangements, okay?"

Li Guo elbowed the old horse, "I'm talking about you, be serious."

To be honest, Maradona is really a bit sleepy. His life is composed of three things, football, alcohol, and beautiful women.

So where these three things are lacking, the spirit of the old horse is sluggish, "Damn the event, if I knew it, I would let Leo come by himself."

1 hours,

2 hours,

3 hours,

In the end, even the good-tempered Fran couldn't take it anymore. The time of this event has far exceeded everyone's expectations. Everyone is very tired and boring.

Li Guo felt that this was not going to work. Taking advantage of a break, Li Guo approached Conan and suggested, "Everyone is tone-deaf, you just try it for a month and that's it."

"Then what do you say?" Conan's tone was not very good.

Li Guo thought to himself: "Old Ma is right, this guy is really a bit like a pirate, a dog bites Lu Dongbin."

But Li Guo didn't say it out of his mouth, because he also wanted to settle the matter quickly, who has that American time to play with you.

Li Guo said: "These people are all from the football circle. I think the best place to shoot is on the football field and let everyone do some actions. As for the singing, you can dub it."

"I can't decide this, I have to discuss it with the people on FIFA."

In the end, FIFA agreed. After all, the MV is a small matter. It is not easy for these busy people to invite them once, but it will be difficult to invite them again next time.

Li Guo was assigned the role of coach, he just posed on the sidelines, Maradona needed to change into his jersey and run on the court, and other current stars, such as Van Persie and Forlan, needed to do some tough moves.

When everyone is doing what they are good at, the progress of the MV is very fast, and it was completed in 20 minutes.

"Li Guo, thank you. If it weren't for your idea, I don't think my work would be finished by tomorrow morning."

"Can you leave a contact information?"

Li Guo remembers that Conan is a very talented musician, maybe there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future, such friends must be useful.

"Okay, but let me tell you first, it's not cheap to ask me."

Li Guo chuckled, "Cheap ones don't have good ones, so I like expensive ones."

The words were straightforward, and Conan began to like Li Guo's personality a little bit, "Shall we have dinner together?" Conan offered.

"No, I have to go back. The World Cup schedule is very intensive. We are going to Durban for the next stop."

Conan was a little disappointed, "Okay, I wish you the best of luck, by the way, I will sing at the closing ceremony of the World Cup."

"I'll go if you get the tickets for me," Li Guo said with a smile.

Conan chuckled, showing his white teeth, "You can lead the team to the final."

"Yes, there will be such a day, but it should not be in South Africa," said Li Guo, looking into the distance.
