Chapter 417

"Everyone, good evening. Today is November 11th, the first day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar. Welcome to the news broadcast program."

A stern-looking male announcer in formal attire appears on television screens in millions of homes.

Next to him is the equally serious female announcer:
"First, let me introduce you to the main content of this show..."

At the end of such a serious and solemn news, the picture suddenly changed.

What appears in the camera is the Bird's Nest, the world-renowned Olympic Stadium for its unique shape.

"Only an hour ago, the Chinese national men's football team ended their fifth match of the World Cup qualifiers at BJ's Bird's Nest. Amidst the cheers of 5 fans, the Chinese team beat Qatar 0-1 and won five games. All victories, No.2014 results in the group stage won the right to qualify for the [-] World Cup in Brazil, and the boys of the Chinese team used practical actions to give their own gifts to the victory and closing of the [-]th National Congress of the Communist Party of China!"

Then the game screen appeared on the screen:

Only by winning can Qatar keep its hope of qualifying. From the very beginning, it tried to attack and counterattack, but was easily counterattacked by Long Shute, who was wearing the captain's armband. Before the first half was over, the Chinese team scored three goals in a row, almost sealing the victory.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Qatar, which had no hope in sight, became weak, but Long Shute led his teammates to strengthen the onslaught. The Chinese players who had no psychological pressure played wonderful cooperation many times, but they still needed to improve their finishing touches.

Long Shute contributed three goals and one assist in this game. He even tried the technique of two direct free kicks on Qatar. However, due to distance and position, he failed to expand the score, but he also The Qatar goalkeeper was in a cold sweat.

After the game ended, Long Shute did not return to the locker room immediately. He led all his teammates to stay on the scene, and ran along to express his gratitude to the fans who supported him, which caused a tsunami of fans in the audience.

Amidst the cheers of the fans, the loudspeakers in the stadium announced another thing:
"In order to celebrate the Chinese team's entry into the World Cup, a small celebration performance will be held in 10 minutes. Please don't leave the venue for the time being, so as not to cause unnecessary confusion."

At this time, of course no one will leave the field early, everyone is still immersed in the joy of five consecutive victories and cannot extricate themselves, and countless people are still letting tears of excitement flow down...

But Long Shute was really taken aback. In the locker room, he saw a middle-aged man who was unpretentious but shone with an indescribable brilliance.

A man who should be on TV.

"Guys, congratulations on qualifying for the World Cup with your outstanding results."

The middle-aged man opened his mouth with a smile, and the words he said were as kind as any fan.

Long Shute and all the players behind him froze in place, because the middle-aged man was accompanied by Director Liu of the General Administration and Chairman Cai of the Football Association.

"Captain Long, as a fan, I would like to thank you for your great contribution to the development of football in the motherland. You have worked hard to win the Asian Cup, the Olympic champion, and enter the World Cup."

The middle-aged man stretched out his right hand towards Long Shute.

Long Shute didn't care about the left and right hands, he directly held the other's generous and warm hands with both hands:

"This is what I should do,***."

The other party smiled:
"Play well at Bayern, next year I will visit Germany, maybe I will go to Munich to watch one of your games, don't let me down."

"Definitely." Long Shute suddenly realized that he, who never panted in the verbal battles on weekdays, could not speak.

The other party still had a smile on his face:
"By the way, Director Liu said that you were elected as a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference? Work hard, I hope you will come up with a good proposal at the two sessions next year..."

"What?" Long Shute looked confused, "What proposal?"

Of course, the "News Network" will not broadcast these conversations, and replace them with the announcer's voice:
"Condolences to the Chinese football players who just won the victory. Captain Long Shute said on behalf of the players that they will continue to work hard and make their due contributions to the development of Chinese football..."
-
"Why didn't you tell me in advance that there is such an arrangement?"

Long Shute raised his wine glass, toasted Director Liu, and complained at the same time - this is their celebration banquet.

"You're blaming us for that."

Chairman Cai, who was sitting on the other side, quickly explained:
"We only received a temporary notice during the intermission. We wanted to come to the front line to condolences to everyone on a whim, and we have repeatedly told you not to add psychological pressure to you. We have no time to inform you at all."

"Yeah, I can't call you down to inform you, can I? Then you will definitely scold me for bureaucracy in your heart, hahaha."

Vice Chairman Yu filled him with wine with a smile, and the atmosphere on the wine table became lively again.

Long Shute rarely drank a few more glasses, but he only toasted two glasses to each of the three big brothers, and then removed the drinking utensils in front of him.

He is very aware of his body. He has never drank a lot of alcohol for more than ten years, so he has almost no resistance to alcohol. Even if he wants to drink more, it is only three taels...

Cao Jingwei sat at the outermost position, looking at a group of bosses at the table, as the team leader, he knew that he couldn't get in the way, so he just served food and wine for the leaders...

Sometimes he feels that his team leader may be the weakest one in the history of Chinese football, and he is far inferior to the team captain in terms of influence and voice within the team.

But sometimes, he feels that this is not a bad thing. As long as he embraces this thigh well, no matter it is economic or political interests, he will continue to roll towards him, and even a little psychological imbalance will not hurt him. Just vanished.

More importantly... these benefits are basically risk-free, at least there is no need to worry about going to Tieling to accept the trial of the hammer like the previous ones.

Thinking about it this way, it's pretty good! -
The day after the successful conclusion of the [-]th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPPCC officially released a message:
"Recommended by the State Sports General Administration and approved by the CPPCC Committee, football player Long Shute has officially become a national committee member and will participate in the No.2013 National Congress held in March 3."

Along with him, Yao Ming, who has retired, and Liu Xiang, who is close to retirement, are also members of the committee.

The 33-year-old Yao Juren was elected as a national committee member for the first time, while Xiang Feiren, who is three years younger than him, has held this position for five full years.

However, although the 22-year-old Long Ritian is younger than them all, he is only the No.2 post-90s member elected nationwide.

The youngest committee member...is the [-]th Panchen Lama Erdeni, this...he is really incomparable.
