Chapter 527 [Rising] China World Cup(1/2)
Chapter 527 China World Cup
While the Spanish people were in a dire civil war, the Chinese Empire, the superpower in the East, was busy enhancing its soft power, and a large-scale Chinese cultural communication operation was quietly invading the whole world
On September 16, 29, Guanghua, the first World Cup Football Championship was held at the Center for the Capital International Stadium of the Empire of China...
This is the first time that the World Cup has been recognized by the international community, led by the National League Sports Committee, and the hosting of the first World Cup has also fallen to the Chinese Empire. The World Cup Football League is also the largest international event on the Asian continent for the first time, so the Chinese Empire's government and people attach great importance to the first World Cup.
Emperor Chenhao and Empress Li Youyi of the Chinese Empire led officials from nine ministries to attend the opening ceremony. Shu, Ning, Xian, Gong, Chen and other imperial concubines also accompanied the princes and princesses to attend. Hundreds of royal members participated in the opening ceremony of the World Cup together and became the largest collective attendance of the royal family in the Chinese Empire since its founding.
The full name of the World Cup FIFA World Cup Football Championship is the world's highest honor, highest specification and highest level football match. It is known as the two top global sports events, together with the Olympics. It is the world's largest sports event with influence and broadcast coverage exceeding the Olympics.
The reason why it has the highest influence, even surpasses the Olympics, is mainly because wars are not allowed to break out during the Olympics. If countries participating in the Olympics participate in the war, they will be strongly condemned by international public opinion. Therefore, many belligerent countries refuse to send teams to participate in the Olympics to avoid being criticized by international public opinion. Therefore, since the establishment of the Olympics, at most, only a dozen countries have participated, and their influence cannot cover the whole world.
The World Cup has no such limitation. As the most dream-free sacred glory of all countries in the world, any national football team that can get it is the legitimate world number one. The whole world will be crazily boiling for it, and players who perform well in the World Cup will be regarded as national heroes by the country forever, so it also represents the ultimate dream of various football players. It is held every four years, and any FIFA member state can send a team to participate in this greatest human event.
The World Cup does not conflict with international peace and public opinion. Each participating country does not have to worry about the powerful international public opinion accusation brought about by the war breaking out during the World Cup, so you can participate with confidence. At the same time, compared with the sports events of the Olympic Games, football is more popular and participatory. The Olympic champion is only something that only a few superhumans can do, and does not have the popularization of civilians. The World Cup Football League is more people-friendly and has received support from people from all over the world. At the same time, football is like a battlefield. Many countries cannot defeat the enemy on the battlefield, so fighting with enemy countries on the football field can also make up for their fragile hearts. Of course, more importantly, football has been going on for thousands of years, and is widely popular and loved by people around the world.
The Football World Cup League was finally accepted by the international community, which included many political games between international powers. After long-term negotiations and political compromises between countries, we finally reached an agreement under the framework of the League of Nations.
As early as May 21, 1904, Frenchman Robert Gailland, the first president of FIFA, proposed this idea to the leaders of various countries' football circles for the first time, and instructed his secretary-general, Dutchman Hillschmann to draft a document for this. However, due to the fact that there were not many countries willing to participate, and due to the disagreement in politics and sports, the plan was aborted.
After the end of World War I, Mr. Jule Remitt, the founder of the Paris Red Stars, was elected as the president of FIFA, and he re-engaged this stranded plan. He made a lot of persuasion to the leaders of football in various countries, trying his best to prove that a global football match can be consistent with the Olympic Games founded by Baron Gubertane, and can flourish. He is very patient and patient.
In 1923, in a hotel in Brussels, Uruguayan diplomat Buero represented the two-time Olympic football champion Uruguay team and officially expressed support for Remitt, which played a significant role at that time. However, the establishment of the World Cup league mechanism was always blocked by the Chinese Empire. Governments of various countries were forced to fail to approve the establishment of the World Cup Football League under the political pressure of the Chinese Empire.
The reason why the Chinese Empire prevented the establishment of the World Cup Football League does not mean that the Chinese Empire itself opposes this world-wide football sport. Including the Chinese Empire Emperor Wang Chenhao, he even plays football at the Royal Sports Center every Sunday, which shows Wang Chenhao's love for football. Under the example of Wang Chenhao, the Chinese people have a craze for playing football, and the imperial people are facing the empire.
Emperor Wang Chenhao was particularly concerned about every sport and hobby of Emperor Wang Chenhao. After learning that Wang Chenhao loved football, the central government of the Chinese Empire successively established national football teams and local governments. The people cooperated very actively in this regard. Soon football swept across the country, and the football league systems at all levels were established one after another.
Since the twelve years of Guanghua, more than 3,000 football teams have appeared in the Chinese Empire, including states, localities, cities and counties, and even major consortiums in the Empire have paid for the organization of football teams. That year, the Imperial Emperor Chenhao promulgated the establishment of the national football league system, once every four years, with the full name of the Chinese Empire Football Super League, or the Chinese Super League for short.
The Chinese Super League game system is formulated by Emperor Chenhao of the Empire. It is held every four years. The final is selected by each of the 72 states and provinces of the Empire. It adopts a double round-robin match between home and away. Each team plays twice with each team, and once with home and away. The Chinese Super League determines the ranking system in the points system, that is, each team wins one game, scores one point, and loses one game, and scores 0 points. After the end of the Chinese Super League, the team with more points ranked first. If the points or more teams have equal points, another ranking strategy is introduced, that is, 1. If the points and teams with more points are more points, the ranking is ranked first. 2. If the points and teams with more goals are more goals, the ranking is ranked first. 3. If the points and teams with more points are scored more goals, the ranking is ranked first. 4.
Teams with equal points ranked among the top 5 in all Chinese Super League games that year.
Teams with equal points scored the most goals in all Chinese Super League games that year, ranked among the top 6.
Those with fewer red and yellow cards deducting points for the whole year's competition (excluding disciplinary punishment) will rank first. In the end, if the winner is still not determined, the ranking will be determined by drawing lots.
Before the Chinese Super League, each province and state will play football leagues at the municipal and county level and regional level separately. The fourth level of the A, B, C and D are respectively, and the A League is the event for the football teams that decide to participate in the National Super League. The B, C and D three-level league is a selection match for local football leagues. Except for the previous two Super Leagues that did not have any relegation constraints, from the third session, in order to improve the level of Chinese Empire football matches, a relegation and upgrading system is adopted.
The first Chinese Super League was held in Guanghua for 14 years, and finally the Zhili Football Team won the championship, Jiangsu Football Team won the runner-up, and Royal Football Team won the third place. Due to the first time such a huge event, various competition links need to be improved urgently, and the referee system is not sound. Various violations in many football teams cannot be stopped in time. Misconduct and punishment occur from time to time, which is also a process that the Imperial Football Association of China must take during the continuous improvement.
The second Chinese Super League was held in Guanghua in the 18th year. This league has a more systematic referee system than the previous one. Many problems that arose in the last one have been solved. Overall, this league has made the imperial government and the people more satisfied. The football teams of all states and provinces have shown their due strength, and the winning or loss did not cause large-scale dissatisfaction. However, this competition was allowed to participate for the first time. This was formulated by the imperial government to strengthen the friendly relations between the local territories and the colonial people. As a result, the runner-up and third place in the second Chinese Super League were won by the Hawaii State Football Team and the Cuban State Football Team, which made the football teams in the local states and provinces of the imperial country quite ashamed. Fortunately, the championship was still won by the Zhili State Football Team, which did not cause a major storm.
By the 26th year of Guanghua, the Chinese Empire had held four football Super Leagues. Overall, the Chinese Empire's football and competitions had entered a period of stable and mature development, but there were still many shortcomings in the face of Chinese Empire football.
Although the Chinese Empire has a long history of football, in the modern Qing Dynasty, this football sport was strangled by the corrupt Qing government.
In the Qing Dynasty, there were very few records about football activities in historical records. The Cuju activity in ancient China lasted for thousands of years since the Warring States Period. In the Han, Tang and Song dynasties, it once shone with a shining light like a comet. However, it was left with only a little bubble in the water of the Qing Dynasty society, and finally fell into the darkness.
At this time, modern football appeared in the Western world. When Britain dominated the world, Western football far surpassed the East, causing the Chinese Empire's football to lag behind the West as a whole. Although the Chinese Empire Emperor Chen Hao knew this well and he also actively worked hard for this, the problem facing the major football teams of the Chinese Empire was that they were among the best in China, but they became the bottom team internationally. After four Chinese Super Leagues, although the Chinese Empire's football teams have improved greatly, especially since the third session, the Imperial Emperor Chen Hao issued an order to allow foreign players to join the Chinese Super League, which has led many well-known Western football stars to play football in China.
Due to the overall economic recession of the Western world, the Chinese Empire is rich, and many world-class football stars cannot survive in Western football teams and come to China to play football and make money from China. Their joining has brought advanced technology and experience to the Chinese football team, especially Dorado, Sia, Iliad, Castro from Uruguay, Peuselle, Stabille of Argentina, Laurent, Langelle, Macino of France; Carreno of Mexico, Luis Monti of Argentina, etc. became international stars in the first World Cup.
Before becoming famous, outstanding players came to the Chinese Empire Super League as foreign players. Their advanced goal skills have made great contributions to the development of the Chinese football team. Similarly, there are many foreign coaches participating in the Chinese Super League in China. Scarone, who made great achievements in Uruguay's two Olympic gold medals in 1924 and 1928, also became a foreign football consultant for the Royal Football Team of the Chinese Empire. During his time in China, he trained dozens of outstanding football players for the Chinese football team and made great contributions to the Chinese Empire's football team, which performed outstandingly in the World Cup.
On December 10, 1924, FIFA held a working meeting in Paris. Switzerland, Hungary, France, Austria, Germany, Paraguay, Argentina and other countries sent representatives to attend the meeting. Four months later, the draft of the meeting was submitted to the Football Association of various countries for deliberation, but was opposed by more than 20 countries, including the Chinese Empire. It was mainly collectively opposed by the member states of the Greater China Co-prosperity Circle, which was vented with the Chinese Empire. The reason was very simple, just because the Chinese Empire was not ready yet.
It turned out that the Emperor of the Chinese Empire and the Cabinet supported the establishment of the World Cup Football Championships by the National League, but when the cabinet member Tang Shaoyi asked the Imperial Football Association again, he found that the Imperial Football Association was not sure of winning. Although the fighting spirit of winning the first World Cup championship was strong, the Imperial Football Team was not as good as foreign players in all aspects and did not have the ability to win the World Cup championship 100%. Foreign players were not allowed to exist during the World Cup. All foreign players playing football in the Chinese Empire were summoned back to their own countries and prepared to represent their respective countries to participate.
In this way, the Imperial Football Team was not sure of winning the World Cup championship, which made the imperial officials, including Tang Shaoyi, look dull. Tang Shaoyi had naturally promised the Imperial Emperor Chenhao before, and the Imperial Football Team must definitely win glory for the Empire. How to win glory? Naturally, it is to win the first World Cup championship, because only winning the championship can meet the identity of the Chinese Empire as the only superpower in the world after World War I. This is necessary, and involves the face of the Empire.
Since there was no certainty of victory, Tang Shaoyi ordered the Imperial Football Association to join hands with other countries to oppose the Paris proposal. Tang Shaoyi's tactics were just one word - drag, until the football teams of the Chinese Empire were able to win the World Cup. Since the huge amount of funds were required to host the World Cup and the consent of most countries, the opposition of the Chinese Empire caused more than a dozen members of the Greater Chinese Federation to vote against it. Even a considerable number of countries that looked at the Chinese Empire voted against it or abstained from it. More than 30 opposing countries, the Paris proposal was rejected and the time of the World Cup was forced to postpone.
Nordic countries such as France actively support the hosting of the World Cup. They hope to hold the first World Cup in Europe, but American countries such as Paraguay and Argentina oppose it. They hope that the first World Cup will be held in the Americas. In order to seize the right to host the World Cup, the Chinese Empire and its federal member states have become the targets of wining over both sides. Tang Shaoyi took advantage of their contradictory psychology to conduct tug-of-war negotiations with the two sides, which is actually just to buy time for the Chinese football team to step up training.
Tang Shaoyi's tactic of dragging words was successfully implemented, and the World Cup was held at a delay. Therefore, the Imperial Football Association quickly issued a call to 450 million local citizens and 50 million overseas autonomous lords and colonial people. 72 provinces successively launched emergency orders to select top football players. Even the Imperial Emperor Wang Chenhao also issued an edict saying: "If the Empire cannot find excellent football players, then I will go on the battlefield in person." At the same time, Wang Chenhao also wrote a poem himself: "Kick out the moon in the sky with one kick, and hold the stars in the sea with both shoulders. He can't tell the young masters that they are fulfilling their feelings."
Of course, Wang Chenhao's words and poems are just to stimulate the fighting spirit of the imperial football players, and scolding them to make them vent their anger. Whenever Wang Chenhao thinks that 1.3 billion Chinese people cannot choose 11 outstanding football players in the 21st century, he is always so angry that he smashes the table and curses. He firmly believes that if the 500 million people in the Empire cannot even select more than a dozen top football players, it is really embarrassing.
Wang Chenhao personally issued an edict and established a huge reward fund with a total amount of up to 100 million dragon coins. The edict stated that all members of the national football team who won the World Cup championship will receive a huge bonus of 2 million dragon coins to inspire the fighting spirit of the people.
After Wang Chenhao's edict of dismantling and fighting was issued, it immediately stirred up huge waves in the hearts of the 50 million citizens of the Empire. The huge bonus caused a strong victory for all those who were playing football, ready to play football and not playing football. Wang Chenhao's sarcastic words "If you don't have it, just change me to go" made the hearts of the two million professional football players in the Empire deeply hurt and even bleed.
As the best football player in the two Chinese Super Leagues in the Chinese Empire, Li Huitang, the Imperial Football Star and the chief striker of the Royal Football Team, then held a press conference. At the reception, he publicly declared: "If you can't win the World Cup championship, you will be sorry for the cultivation of the empire, and your Majesty the Emperor's favor is not to be cherished." At the same time, he called on all domestic football players and enthusiasts to promote the spirit of "blood, blood, sweat, and no tears" and "training to the end for the glory of the empire at all costs". In the end, he shouted: "Even if you are looked down upon by people all over the world, you cannot be looked down upon by His Majesty the Imperial Emperor, our most beloved! We must be successful and win the World Cup championship to show him. We are not cowards."
Under his leadership, the more than 2 million professional players in the Empire were always training hard in mind the belief of bringing glory to the Empire. For nothing else, just for the huge prize of the two million dragon coins, and for not being completely looked down upon by the Empire Emperor Chenhao, they also had to grit their teeth and train diligently to win the World Cup championship.
The emperor issued an edict, and the Empire made it the top priority in sports competitions from the central to local governments. The government gave various conveniences, the most advanced thinking and the highest fighting spirit to the football associations in the Empire, a large number of students from all major universities in the Empire, joined the football associations in various schools and regions, among which a considerable number of players with extremely high football skills emerged. At the same time, more than 200 consortiums of the Empire also valued the business opportunities of football. Before the first World Cup, it invested more than 2 billion yuan in huge funds, including the construction of a large number of middle and high-level football stadium sports centers across the country, providing a good practice environment for football players in various regions. Driven by the unity of the Empire, the Empire's football has made great progress in just a few years, and a large number of outstanding players who have reached international standards emerged.
With the increasing number of football elites in the Chinese Empire, the Imperial Football Association's confidence in winning the World Cup championship has increased significantly. After checking the Imperial Football Association's report, the Imperial Cabinet believed that the time was ripe, so the Imperial government no longer objected, and the World Cup project proposal was again proposed at the meeting of the National League Football Committee.
On June 5, 1927, at the Shanghai-Sea Conference held by FIFA, 33 votes in favor, 5 votes against (Nordic countries expressed opposition), and 3 abstentions passed the proposal at the Paris Working Conference three years ago. The meeting decided to formally establish the World Cup event and held a collective discussion on the host countries, event regulations, start-up funds and other issues.
Since the Chinese Empire took the lead in holding the Chinese Super League system for football competition, the National League Football Association Committee compared the Cambridge Rules previously formulated by the British Football Association and believed that the competition system and punishment standards formulated by the Chinese Empire Football Association are more in line with the spirit of football. Therefore, based on the points-based and pre-selected elimination competition system and punishment standards of the Chinese Super League, the World Cup competition system and punishment standards were formulated.
The World Cup schedule is divided into two stages: the qualifiers stage and the final stage. The World Cup qualifiers stage is divided into six major competition areas, namely Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, North America and Oceania. Each competition area needs to formulate qualifier rules according to the actual situation of the competition area. Each FIFA member team who has registered to participate in the World Cup needs to compete for the qualifiers in their competition area to compete for the quota to enter the World Cup final stage.
There are currently 32 places in the World Cup final stage. The host country can directly obtain the quota of the final stage. Except for the hosting country, other places are allocated by FIFA based on the football level of each qualifier area. Different qualifier areas will have different number of quotas in the final stage.
The host country of the World Cup final stage must be a member of the FIFA, and the member states need to apply to FIFA and then vote by all FIFA member states. 32 teams will go to the host country to compete for the championship in the final stage. The 32 teams in the final stage will be divided into 8 groups through draws of lottery, with 4 teams in each group, and will participate in a group point match. The top two teams in each group will be qualified to qualify and enter the rematch; after entering the rematch, the sixteen teams will determine the schedule according to the established rules, no longer draws lots, and then perform a single knockout match until the championship is decided.
The quota allocation for the first World Cup is 6 qualifying places in Asia, 14 qualifying places in Europe, 1 qualifying places in Africa, 1 qualifying places in Oceania, 5 qualifying places in South America, and 5 qualifying places in Central, North America and the Caribbean.
There are 44 countries that will participate, but there are 46 teams. Among them, there are four local governments in the UK, England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. All the competitions are played by four local governments, and they do not miss each other and refuse to be united. They only get together at the Olympics. Therefore, the UK is approved to participate in the competition. Similarly, the Chinese Empire's territory runs across the northern and southern poles, has a vast land area and the world's largest population. The Chinese Empire held four Chinese Super Leagues, and the rules of the World Cup originated from the Chinese Empire, so they are recognized by the international community as a country with prosperous football. Taking into account the influence of the Chinese Empire and other factors, the National League Football Association decided that the Chinese Empire could send three teams to participate in the World Cup qualifiers.
On the issue of countries and locations of the first World Cup, countries quarreled endlessly and wanted to get the right to host the first World Cup. The Chinese Empire is also unwilling to be outdone and used all kinds of power to fight for the hosting of the World Cup.
The Nordic countries first strongly demanded to host the first World Cup. Their reason was that according to Nordic mythology, the Greeks and Romans had already engaged in a football game before the Middle Ages. They placed the ball on a rectangular field on a white line in the middle and kicked the ball onto the other side's field with their feet. At that time, this game was called "Habastom".
Western Europe, Britain and France immediately opposed it. France said that the French first proposed to establish the World Cup Football League in Paris, which should be held in France. The United Kingdom threw out the reason that they were the origin of modern football. This reason came from a war with Denmark around the 12th century. After the war, the British saw the heads of Danish soldiers on the ground. Because Britain hated Danish soldiers very much, they kicked the heads. At the same time, by the early 19th century, football was quite popular in some European and Latin American countries, especially in capitalist Britain. Until 1848,
The first textual rule of football, the Cambridge Rules, was born. The so-called Cambridge Rules are some rules formulated when the match was played between Oxford and Cambridge in the early 19th century. At that time, 11 people played each team. Because there were ten students and one teacher in each dormitory in the school, they played between dormitories and dormitories on each side. The current 11-person football match began. On October 26, 1863, the British Football Association held a very important meeting in the history of modern football in England.
Britain seemed to have a good reason, but it was soon affected by the Chinese Empire.
The Chinese Empire believed that football originated from a ball game "Cuju" in ancient China. Later, it was spread to Europe by the Arabs and developed into modern football. In 307 BC, during the Warring States Period, King Wuling of Zhao reformed and implemented the "Hu Clothing and Casual Shooting". The people of Zhao learned to ride horses and shoot archery. The King of Zhao often took his confidants out of the city to stroll around, which was very majestic. One day, he came to a forest and saw several hares in the forest. When the king opened his golden mouth, he "catched the living", and then divided his troops into four groups.
When they caught it together, they did not want to be frightened. The rabbit rushed straight and fled through the flat cracks of the horses, and found nothing. Everyone shook their heads and sighed. A strategist suddenly had a bright eye and stepped forward to offer a suggestion, "King, this kind of encirclement is very interesting. We might as well use a ball instead of a rabbit. We can play it every day without leaving the palace gate." "Good idea" King Zhao praised "I will leave this matter to you with full responsibility." So, football was born in China. But at that time, it was still a horse-riding exercise, and it was called "Cuju".
The word "cuju" was first published in "Records of the Grand Historian? Biography of Su Qin". When Su Qin lobbying King Xuan of Qi, he described Linzi: "Linzi is very rich and solid, and all the people blow the rod, drum the zither, and step on the Ju. "Trai" means "cu", and the meaning of kicking. "Ju", the ball means ancient football. The Han Dynasty's "Miscellaneous Notes on Xijing", "Salt and Iron Theory", "New Book of Cuju", and "Liu Xiangbei Lu" have records about Cuju.
By the Song Dynasty, Chinese football developed to its peak. From the emperor to the people, everyone loved football. In modern times, although the Qing Dynasty was backward, in the era of the Chinese Empire, four Chinese Super Leagues were held one after another, and the rules of the World Cup also came from China, so it had a strong international influence.
The Chinese Empire strives for this, and with its strong political influence, it has strong persuasive power. Soon more than 20 countries support the hosting of the first World Cup football championship in the Chinese Empire, but there are also opponents, including Uruguay, Argentina and other countries in South America, Norway, Sweden and other countries. They all accused the hosting countries of being long and taking a boat to South America for several weeks. The same is true for trains to the Chinese Empire. Long-term rides seriously affect the physical strength and energy of athletes, so they opposed this as a reason.
In fact, this accusation was the main interface between Europe and South America three years ago. Paraguay was going to hold the first World Cup, and European countries used this excuse to oppose and refused to participate. Similarly, France's bid for the South American countries also used this excuse to oppose. Paraguay, especially Paraguay, they planned to hold the World Cup in 1930, because that year was the first hundred years of Paraguay, so the opposition was very high.
In addition to having strong political influence, the Chinese Empire also has strong economic advantages. Soon, the Chinese Empire proposed that if the World Cup is held in China, the Chinese Empire will bear the transportation issues of participating teams from various countries, and ensure that they will be taken from various countries to the Chinese Empire's competition venue within a few hours, and there will be no situation where they will be unable to play due to fatigue caused by long journeys.
Of course, the Chinese Empire could do it. In this era, only the Chinese Empire had the financial resources to directly airlift teams from all over the world to the Chinese Empire's competition venue through long-distance transport planes. It took not much time to directly transport team personnel by planes, at most more than ten hours.
After the representatives of the Chinese Empire put forward this condition, neither European nor South American countries had any reason to object. At the same time, after four Chinese Super League games, the Chinese Empire had a large number of sports facilities, advanced and complete. Europe had limited financial resources and could not afford hundreds of millions of dragon coins to host the World Cup. South American countries were not wealthy at all, and Paraguay could provide a game venue that was not even as good as the continental football stadium of the Chinese Empire. Compared with the international sports center of the Chinese Empire, it was really indescribable.
So, the host country of the first World Cup was finally handed over to the Chinese Empire, and the competition location was chosen at the Capital International Sports Center of the Chinese Empire, an international football competition that the Chinese Empire spent 90 million dragon coins to watch, and could be held all-weather.
In this way, after using all kinds of means, the Chinese Empire finally obtained the right to host the World Cup.
However, in terms of the first World Cup, all countries demanded that the official start in 1930. However, 1930 was the fifth Chinese Super League time of the Chinese Empire, which conflicted with the World Cup time, so the Chinese Empire opposed it. Under the pressure of the Chinese Empire, all countries quickly compromised and set the time to October 18, 1929, September 16, 29, Guanghua of the Chinese Empire. After that, every four years, the World Cup will be held. The first World Cup scheduled for the first World Cup is one month, from October 18 to November 17, and all subsequent sessions will be handled accordingly. However, when countries in the southern hemisphere hosted the World Cup, due to the poor climate in the northern and southern hemispheres, the hosting time in the southern hemisphere was appropriately modified.
On October 18, 1929, tens of millions of fans from all over the world gathered at the Imperial Capital International Sports Center to watch the opening ceremony of the first World Cup that started at 5 pm.
Before the opening ceremony officially began, the Royal Air Force Performance Team of the Imperial Empire first performed a wonderful aerobatic performance. The flight team, including the most elite J-1 Black Hawk fighter formation and the colorful Hellfire fighter formation, swept across the football field stadium at a very low altitude, and the colorful smoke bands left traces on the blue sky, like Asian pictures painted by Chinese artists.
At 17:00 p.m. local time in Beijing, the opening ceremony of the China World Cup officially began. A cute Chinese girl in Hanfu smiled. She was still the age to learn to speak. From her mouth, her cute voice with a cute voice unfolded ancient Chinese pictures to the people of the world.
"There are beautiful scenery here, wild animals, rich minerals, developed economy, advanced technology, powerful military, and simple people... All of this has been brought to every corner of the world from the World Cup."
Then, the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and nine golden dragons that could only be supported by more than a thousand people appeared in the center of the venue in turn. The dragon struggled to chase the dragon ball in front, hovering and swimming throughout the venue, with its momentum shocking.
After the dragon dance ended, the sound of the guzheng sounded melodiously and melodiously. Ten thousand female dancers in Hanfu slowly entered the venue. They used traditional Chinese dances to build a beautiful oriental style. The rich oriental style of the opening ceremony was fully reflected from the beginning. Tens of millions of viewers applauded warmly and cheered loudly.
However, the first World Cup represents the international community after all. At the request of the National League Football Association, Western elements should be added to the opening ceremony to indicate the integration of the East and the West.
Therefore, after traditional Chinese dance, the modern song "Fight for It". This song was arranged by Wang Chenhao himself. From tone to lyrics, it completely replicated the theme song of the 98 World Cup of Wang Chenhao's era, "The Cup of Life", but it was changed to the first Chinese singing, followed by an English cover. Wang Chenhao believes that this song is the song that best reflects the passion of the World Cup, so in order for the first World Cup of the Chinese Empire to leave an indelible impression on all mankind, Wang Chenhao had to pirate it once with shameless face.
“Life is pure passion
It should be full of love
And make a living
The soul must fight to win
...
gogogo!alealeale
Move forward, the world is right under our feet
gogogo!alealeale
Life is like a competition
...
Fight for it
Fight for it
…”
When the song "Fight for It" sounded, tens of millions of viewers in the audience suddenly became excited. They had never heard such a good song. Until hundreds of years later, this song became one of the favorite songs of every football fan. Similarly, the World Cup hosted by the Chinese Empire was also rapidly spreading around the world because of this song, and the Chinese Empire's influence in cultural soft power has rapidly expanded.
To be continued...
