Chapter 892 The opening game! African time!
No one cared about Hao Haidong's words at that time, but Huang Jianxiang was a little annoyed by the sound of Wuwuzula at the scene.
"The refueling weapon of South African fans is so weird."
"They held this thing in their hands and seemed to be called Wuwuzula. The sound made me feel quite uncomfortable. I have been here for more than ten days, but I have not been pursuing for a day!"
"It's like a desperate baby crying or poking a hornet's nest, the sound is really unbearable."
"Noise will probably have a great impact on the broadcast. We must try to raise our voices, but it seems that the sound cannot overwhelm the noise created by Wuwuzula on the scene..."
"I see we're going to kiss the microphone to cover the game."
After hearing Huang Jianxiang's words, Hao Haidong threw out another sentence.
"I feel like when I was a child, I was squatting on the pit, with big-headed flies buzzing around me. That annoying..."
I'm grass!
Fan Zhiyi cursed in his heart, Da Cannon, you are awesome.
The words are rough and not rough!
This is the feeling. We are not as educated as Huang Jianxiang and will not say it good, but the feeling of squatting in the pit is right!
Fan Zhiyi muttered in his heart.
"Puff," Huang Jianxiang was also amused, and then he continued to explain: "Wuwuzula is considered to be the unique "weapon" of South African fans. Recently, the International Hearing Organization conducted a decibel test on "Wuwuzula" and found that its sound exceeds 100 decibels, which is enough to cause harm to people's hearing. It is reported that if all the fans of the audience blow the trumpet during the game, it would be like "100 million flies flying."
...
Not to mention that they are uncomfortable, even the Chinese players in the locker room feel very anxious.
They did hear this annoying sound in the locker room.
Dong Fangzhuo had known that South Africa had this thing, so he was still very calm, and the others were different.
"My grass, what a fool's place."
"How can this sound make people play football?" The captain of the company, Zheng Zhi, cursed.
"No, I really want to go to the toilet!" Li Weifeng seemed to remember his long childhood and breathed that smell...
"I felt my head buzzing all the time, and I couldn't help but be disturbed." Hao Junmin kept shaking his head.
The team leader Zhu Heyuan looked at him a little anxiously, and then he asked Clauchen, "Do you want to find a way to get some headphones? The game will be nearly an hour before it starts, which will affect your condition."
But Clauchen denied his opinion, "No, you have to adapt now, otherwise you will be even more unable to play on the court."
"We should also go to the stadium in advance to adapt to this atmosphere. Watch the show and enjoy the feeling of the World Cup."
Subsequently, all Chinese players were kicked out of the locker room by Clauchen...
Halfway through, Zeng Cheng suddenly asked.
"Brother Dong, you don't seem to be nervous at all?"
"Why are you nervous? This is not the first big scene, just get used to it."
Dong Fangzhuo looked at Zeng Cheng in surprise, stopped, and then patted his shoulder.
"You are the last line of defense, you must be calm. You have played all the Olympic finals, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Isn't it just a South African team? Don't worry, we can do it. If you believe in Feng Xiaoting and the others, they are their biggest reliance."
"Perform well, after the World Cup, maybe you are going abroad."
...
※※※※
At 20:10 on June 11, Beijing time, I came to Africa for the first time 80 years after the establishment of the World Cup!
The theme of the opening ceremony is "Welcome to the World House".
According to the organizing committee, the theme was chosen because early archaeological discoveries began with human beings on the African continent, and the local Taunt in South Africa was also listed as a World Heritage Site due to related excavations. The opening ceremony highlighted the progress made in South Africa and even the African continent, modern economy and technology.
pity,
Mandela's figure did not appear here today. Former South African President Mandela was absent from his great-granddaughter's death in a car accident.
The Johannesburg Football City Stadium has the largest capacity of 10 World Cup stadiums in South Africa. It was famous for Mandela's first speech here after his release from Robben Island. In 1996, South Africa defeated Tunisia 2-0 and won the African Cup of Nations. In order to welcome the 2010 World Cup, the football stadium was renovated and was completely renovated inside and out, with a capacity of 91,000 seats.
At this time, it is estimated that the stadium has poured in at least 100,000 people, which cannot be the official 91,000.
The politicians who attended the opening ceremony included UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, South African President Zuma and former President Mbeki, Chinese President xxx, Mexican President Calderon, Ghanaian President Mills, Zimbabwean President Mugabe, Kenyan President Zibegi and Prime Minister Otinga, US Vice President Biden, New Zealand Prime Minister John Ki, Archbishop Tutu, etc. But the most eye-catching thing is former South African President Mandela, who will turn 92 next month. Unfortunately, the day before the opening ceremony, Mandela's great-granddaughter Zenani, who was only 13 years old, died in a car accident. Mandela, who was overly sad, was unable to attend the opening ceremony in person.
FIFA Blatter first delivered a speech: "The World Cup has come to South Africa, thank you, congratulations to the African people, thank you, South Africa, we can hold the World Cup here, the dream has come true, even if Mandela is not here tonight, his spirit is still on the Football City Stadium."
Then, it was the President of South Africa's turn to speak: "First, allow me to send a message to our idol, who wants to be with us, and wish you before the start of the game, but unfortunately there was a tragedy in Mandela's family, but he said, the game must start, you must enjoy the game. Ladies and gentlemen, we as a country are proud of hosting this world's biggest event, and the whole of Africa is happy, and this is the World Cup in Africa."
"Now, the World Cup has officially begun!"
boom
Five South African Air Force fighters flew over the field and unveiled the first chapter of the opening ceremony. Then in the second chapter, the audience started a 3-minute countdown under the guidance of the large screen, and the beautiful South African propaganda short film was played on the large screen.
Then the opening ceremony entered the third chapter of "Call". With the accompaniment of the song "This is the moment of Africa's flashing", the African praise poet Mjiva sent out the call of Africa: "Please follow the Africans, today we rewrite history because we brought the World Cup to our own land." Nine drummers entered the stadium and surrounded Mjiva. 270 African female dancers in colorful clothes sang and danced, walking towards the central stage of the stadium from 9 different directions, representing the 9 World Cup stadiums except Football City. The broadcasting system also introduced the names of all the stadiums to the world.
Then enter the fourth chapter of "African Bloodline", South African female singer Mazwai entered the venue, and beside her was a giant "dung beetle". The huge World Cup official ball "Putian Tongqing" rolled into the venue, and the dung beetle's attention was attracted by "Putian Tongqing" and pushed the ball out of the performance venue.
South African R&B singer Moloy performed the song "Hope" written by Enchebe. Mandela once appointed South African tenor Enchebe to star in the opening ceremony, but just two days after recording the World Cup song "Hope" last month, 35-year-old Enchebe unfortunately died of bacterial meningitis, so the song "Hope" was performed by Moloy. Mandela's speech was interspersed in the performance: "Through sympathy and care, we can create hope." When Moloy left, Enchebe's avatar was played on the big screen.
Chapter 5 "Unity Africa". South African rapper Panchula joined the choir group Tkzee and sang songs, and South African legendary blowing musician Masekla also participated in the performance. Algerian pop singer Kaleid sang "Didi" to pay tribute to six African World Cup teams. After the performance of Ghana band Osi Barca, Nigerian female singer Kuti sang the song "bangbangbang".
Chapter 6 "The World of Unity". Grammy Award winner, American R&B singer Kelly sang the World Cup song "Opinion of Victory" and the Soveto Spirit Song Orchestra of South Africa serves as the backing vocal. The top 32 national flags that participated appeared in the center of the venue, surrounded by the national flags of other FIFA member states and regions, including China's five-star red flag. After the opening ceremony with a strong African atmosphere, the protection layer of the stadium was lifted off and exposed green turf, waiting for the opening match between the host South Africa and China...
"The performance lasted more than half an hour, and now, South Africa and China are about to appear!"
"Now, world football has entered African time!"
"Zheng Zhi brought the captain's armband and led the Chinese players to the stage. They were holding a cute child in their hands, and the same was true for South Africa's captain Torado."
"The Chinese national anthem is played!"
"Today, nearly 8,000 Chinese fans came to the scene to cheer for the Chinese team."
"The temperature on site is 14 degrees Celsius, and the official statistics are 84,490 fans who are here to watch the game, but I think this data is impossible to be correct, just like when we used to sit on the train, there will always be many station tickets..."
Beep
The Chinese team took the lead in kicking off, and the ball quickly passed back.
In the first 105 seconds, the Chinese team almost scored!
Zhao Xuri in the backcourt launched an attack and passed the ball to the right. Hao Junmin immediately made a cross from the right, but the landing point was not very good, but South African goalkeeper Ku Nei made a strike and saved the ball!
"Dong Fangzhuo!"
I saw Dong Fangzhuo shooting 7 meters in front of the door.
He aimed at the goal with his right foot!
Bang!
The strength is quite strong.
But Mokona bravely stretched out his legs and blocked the ball out of the right post!
"Oh, Mocona saved South Africa's life!"
"Dong Fangzhuo's shot is fatal, but South Africa seems to have been blessed by the gods..."
"The Chinese team still has a chance to take advantage of this corner kick. The pressure on South African players is probably still very high!"
"Hao Junmin took the corner kick!"
“It’s a good place to land!”
"Dong Fangzhuo!"
Chapter completed!
