On the afternoon of July 16, 1998, Beijing time.

There are already tens of thousands of people waiting there at Capital International Airport, and people are wearing white Chinese national team tops, and many people hold flowers in their hands.

At about two o'clock, a plane flew into the airport from the West on time, and suddenly the fans of the entire capital airport burst into shocking cheers!

The band played the music of "The Return of the Hero", and as soon as the cabin door opened, the first one appeared was Ling Feng sitting in a wheelchair, and the one who was pushing the wheelchair was the short and fat Maradona!

At this time, the atmosphere at the entire airport reached its peak. People were neatly shouting the names of Ling Feng and Lao Ma, and countless flowers were thrown into the air.

"You Chinese fans are too enthusiastic!" Lao Ma smiled on his face, but he whispered to Ling Feng.

"It's nothing, just get used to it." Ling Feng's smile did not change at all, and he explained to Lao Ma.

I remember when Ling Feng returned to China, tens of thousands of fans came to pick him up. This time China shined in the World Cup. If the treatment was low, then how could it be said?!

It is worth mentioning that after several weeks of recuperation, Ling Feng's head was fine. The gauze and other things had been removed, and his hair gradually grew a little - but not much, and he couldn't even count as a board in the middle - if you have to make an analogy, it's very similar to the labor reform prisoner in prison...

But what I have to say is that the hair that Ling Feng grows now is not the white ones they used to be, but the orthodox black ones!

Some doctors shouted about miracles. They really couldn't understand what the change in the hair color of Ling Feng was like?

On the contrary, the fans in Paris were ecstatic about the news. Ling Feng was guilty of leaving Saint-Germain, which made his hair turn white overnight. Two years later, in France, Ling Feng's hair finally returned to its original appearance. This was really a gratifying thing.

But some people were sighing that maybe the flowing white hair on the football field would never be seen.

Although Ling Feng's leg injury was not serious, the doctor specifically asked him to sit in a wheelchair for the sake of recovery of the injury. This was the first time Ling Feng got off the plane while riding the cart - and the one who pushed the cart was Lao Ma, which made Ling Feng feel particularly proud.

Next, every player came out of the cabin and received loud cheers from fans, including some players who didn't play much in the World Cup.

Speaking of not having many appearances, I have to thank Lao Ma. All 22 players from the Chinese team participated in the game. This has to be said to be very related to Lao Ma's favor. At the same time, among the top 32 World Cup, only one of the Chinese team has all 22 players.

A movement that has depressed the Chinese people for decades finally makes people proud. This feeling is extremely proud.

The current virtue of the Chinese team is like the return of triumphant generals who won battles in ancient times. If it was really in ancient times, then the people around might rush up and take all the players back to drink and introduce their daughters.

But now, the fans are standing in two rows in an organized manner, holding flowers and shouting, sending the players out from the airport to the outside - because the real celebration is not here, but in Tiananmen Square!

Ling Feng and Lao Ma kept shook hands with almost crazy fans along the way, and the others were not idle either - but Lao Ma pushed a cart and one claw to catch the fans' outstretched hands, and almost threw Ling Feng, who was sitting in a wheelchair...

Finally I know what grand occasion is!

Perhaps in the history of Chinese sports, no team or athlete has ever received such rewards.

The bus drove to Tiananmen Square, the most core part of China, and the crowded fans along the way almost shouted their voices.

According to Lao Ma's statistics afterwards, the one who called Ling Feng the most, was not him but Yue Lingxiang in the second place. There was no way, Xiao Yue was still quite handsome. Ling Feng had a master, and now the image of bald head is really not as good as before. So many female fans gave the sweet shouts to this young player who was unknown half a year ago.

Yue Lingxiang is not as shy as Ling Feng, and he flew kisses at the female fans on the top of the bus, while secretly gestured to his teammates.

...I think Xiaoyue will die after getting off the car, it's ugly. I dare to openly shave everyone's eyebrows. If Xiaoying doesn't treat him, he really doesn't know who the boss is!

But the next part is not that good.

This welcoming ceremony was extremely huge, and several national leaders came, all of whom could shake a part of the world!

These people have one common characteristic, that is, speaking.

A full half an hour! Although the leaders tried their best to compress the speech, they still wasted half an hour. If it weren't for the tens of thousands of people watching on the spot, Ling Feng might have fallen asleep in a wheelchair...

This time, the Chinese team won glory for the country, which once again set off a wave of football. It has to be said that a team of handsome men can naturally attract a large number of beauties. With Ling Feng, the Chinese team's trend in the minds of female fans is also rising. Anyway, this sport that has made the Chinese people sad for decades is now a veritable number one sport in China.

Ling Feng was praised publicly and said a lot of words like "Praise for winning glory for the country", but now Ling Feng is not focused on this. He ended his speech with a few short sentences, just the last sentence: "I swear to bring the golden Hercules Cup to this sacred Tiananmen Gate in 2002."

This sentence made the fans of China cheer in unison, and the shaking cheers made the earth shake slightly.

Ling Feng is now thinking about what to do when he goes to Zhongnanhai...

Although the entire Chinese national team was invited to a banquet, the direct dialogue with the supreme leader made Ling Feng feel a little nervous. The presidents of France, Germany, Italy and other countries had met them, and Ling Feng had shook hands and greeted him. He didn't feel anything at that time, but now he wanted to see the leader of his country, even Ling Feng, who was brave, couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

What's more, after the banquet, I thought Ling Feng would have a face-to-face conversation with him. After all, his goal in his heart would be absolutely impossible without the strong support of the country!

That's it, but it's time for dinner...

Except for Lao Ma who was able to chat and laugh with several leaders while translator, everyone else was timid and didn't even dare to move the delicious dishes on the table.

Well, after all, Lao Ma has been through strong storms. He lived in Cuba for a long time while quitting drugs, and his relationship with Cuban leader Castro is also very good. Although the relationship between China and Cuba can only be considered average, it belongs to the socialist camp and it is naturally more convenient to speak.

As for the members of the national team, Ling Feng was so nervous that he did not dare to move his chopsticks, let alone those little guys. It was a great honor that although Lao Fan made a major mistake, he also participated in the celebration and this celebration banquet as a member of the national team.

No one knew about this matter except Ling Feng and Lao Ma, etc., so although Lao Fan was nervous, he was very grateful to Ling Feng for taking care of his face.

As for Lao Qi, after being exposed, he was sent back to China by Ling Feng in the name of acute illness, so naturally he would not come to participate this time - but there would not be too many people interested in such a nameless deputy head coach.

Several older guys like Ling Feng, who were quite experienced, had their stomachs full before coming, which made it a big deal that the little guys who were training abroad were all waiting for the evening without lunch. As a result, they were getting better now, and they didn't dare to move their chopsticks.

But that's fine. If you're hungry, you'll endure it. However, these dishes are cooked by top chefs. The taste is so fragrant, which makes several young players almost jump up and eat...

Seeing the embarrassment of the Chinese team members, several leaders smiled. These little guys are really cute - but this is also expected. Forget it, it's hard to say now. Let's pack them and take them back for food later...

After a state banquet that was worried, Ling Feng had a separate exchange and conversation with the supreme leader.

The conversation lasted all night, and only Ling Feng and the others were not allowed to enter. He also came to urge the Chairman to rest early, but he could not enter.

This conversation was listed as the top secret, which surprised many people - how many secret words can a football player say?!

Ling Feng sighed after leaving the door, feeling light and refreshed, as if the pressure in his heart had been wiped out.

In addition to Siyue and Han Jing, this is Ling Feng's secret of his life experience to the third person, and he is the most important person.

Only the leaders of a country can truly utilize this information and make timely judgments on the international situation.

Ling Feng remembers not many major national events, but they are all important. After knowing this news, he will be invincible!

In return, Ling Feng has now received the Shangfang Sword granted by the emperor. For such a person who knows "history", he is sure of what he does.

This Shangfang sword has no meaning to the country now. Ling Feng is not using a big stick for domestic policies now, but carrots. Although Lao Qi's words are extreme, they cannot be said to be completely unreasonable. Only by giving enough sweetness to those people can they do their best to do their best.

This is the problem Ling Feng is currently facing. In addition to giving the officials sufficient bonuses, he also suppressed the major clubs accordingly. After all, Lao Ma was right, and it would be no benefit for any party to increase it - but as for turning a blind eye, Ling Feng could not do this before, let alone after taking the Shangfang Sword.

But for foreign countries, as long as Ling Feng does not do too out of line, the country will give full support!

Well, robbing the hosting rights of other people's country means turning South Korea and Japan into a place for virus breeding. Is this too outrageous?

Therefore, the drama jointly performed by FIFA and the French Football Association, plus the cast list and script, were secretly submitted through the above. Now, we are waiting for both sides to respond.

Ling Feng from the French Football Association doesn't care. At most, it's the superiors who take this opportunity to gain some benefits. After all, it's not easy to go against a country because of such a thing.

But FIFA...hehe, whether the 2002 World Cup can be held in China depends on whether FIFA is willing to give face.

The effect delivered through the country is completely different from that delivered by Ling Feng himself. After just a few hours, the other side responded. This time, there was no denying it. He asked China very simply what he wanted...

What can it be done? Ling Feng himself has not yet made plans, but the above moves quickly. He first gave FIFA a reassurance and said a few words that hoped that the two sides would increase their exchanges and cooperate with each other in the future. If you have any help, you will take care of each other and other nonsense, you arranged a few people to join the FIFA to be officials.

Although it is relatively small for the time being and can only be considered a representative, the road to climbing up in the future is quite smooth. In this case, it is also good news for Chinese football. After all, there are people in FIFA, so the policies on China will naturally be much more relaxed in the future.

For FIFA, this is also a good choice. After all, China is a large market. With the current strength of Ling Feng and others, it is not a wise choice to fight against such an emerging strong force.

But FIFA doesn't know that there is a tricky Ling Feng over there, and a Maradona who is in the same power as them. What's wrong with a tiger?

But when they know it, it's too late, and the situation in international football will undergo major changes.

Football is the world's number one sport, not just a tool used by European and American countries to monopolize - with the growth of football levels in various continents and the rise of China now, this day is not far away.
