Asia used to be a purely geographical concept.When the great voyages of Europe began, it was discovered that the civilization of this land was unique, but also ......
Low combat effectiveness.After World War II, the Soviet Union and the United States supported the independence of Asian nation-states in order to fight against the old colonialists and compete for the world.And after the establishment of these countries, they found that the countries and nations in this land have had almost the same fate for hundreds of years.As a result, under the sympathy of the same disease, the geographical concept of Asia has become a political concept.Japan, which was the first to awaken and complete reforms in Asia, also thought of commanding Asians and resisting the oppression of Europeans.But instead of truly uniting the Asians, they resorted to the methods of the aggressors and forced the Asians, as a result of which they caused a united resistance of the Asians.After the war, although Japan became disillusioned with Asia and began to "break away from Asia and join Europe," the rise of Asia itself was still beneficial to Japan.Races, ethnicities, cultures, or Asians have more of a common language with each other.Compared with Japan's "***** circle" proposition, Wang Ai, or China's concept of "peaceful competition, fair development, and regional integration", is more popular with Asians.No country, not even a small one, wants to be dictated by, let alone invaded.Therefore, Wang Ai's speech once again aroused the attention and extensive coverage of Asian media, this time not only the sports media, but also the political media, financial media, and social media.Although the slogan of the "Asian Century" is not new, the Asian financial crisis seven years ago has overshadowed the slogan by beating Asian countries, including Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia, for several years.It is surprising that Wang Ai, as the most educated professional player in the world and the most accomplished player in Asia, has issued such a cry.What is more important is that his speech faintly contains the meaning of "all of Asia unites to strive for the comprehensive rejuvenation of Asia", even if it is only an obscure and slogan-like proposition, but it still has progressive significance.After all, Asian culture is completely different from European culture and African culture, especially East Asian countries.Of course, in this wave of media frenzy, the Chinese media is very low-key, and no media has reprinted Wang Ai's speech in full, and most of them are mentioned without pain, and the focus is still on the simple sports level of Chinese football winning five awards and Wang Ai winning the Asian Footballer of the Year for the second time.Ignore the other parts of Wang Ai's impromptu speech.Although Wang Ai's speech made the media of other countries very happy, such as Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, the media have focused on it, and almost the most heavyweight media have published it in full.Wang Ai's sponsors are also very happy, after all, Wang Ai is in the limelight again, and these media reports are free to promote Wang Ai, and by the way, they have also strengthened the influence of their products.However, Wang Ai was very unhappy.Because when he returned to the hotel that night, he received a call from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the General Administration of Sports for serious criticism!
The key point is the phrase "the century of the yellow race", according to the criticism of the cadres of the Information Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs: You patronize the Asians happy, what about the reaction of the Europeans?
Although the century of Asia was originally the century of the yellow race, it is logically correct to say this, but it is too harsh, isn't it?
Besides, we're busy keeping our heads up, what are you singing?
You can't pretend to be a grandson, you have to let the Americans see us as a thing?
Wouldn't it be good for them to drill ravines, fry donkeys, and look for cats in Afghanistan?
How much fun do you see they have?
Although there are scholars, entrepreneurs, and people from all walks of life who have said this, after all, Wang Ai's influence is too great, and he is the "No. 1 public intellectual" in China in this era.Therefore, while the superiors hurriedly suppressed the fanatical Chinese media that were provoked by Wang Ai, they issued a "gag order" to Wang Ai.Yuan Weimin said it himself: "Talk less!
”Under Zhang Jilong's persuasion, Wang Ai understood that the leader meant to let him be honest and let him get through this wave of limelight.The limelight is out, and it's almost time to retract.The country is pretending to be a grandson, what else can you do personally?
This is also the love and protection of his superiors, after all, the competition between countries is cruel and bottomless, and buying and attacking each other's cultural celebrities, especially patriotic cultural celebrities, is also part of the soft power competition.I'm not happy, but I'm still a little suffocated.The motherland is not strong, and as a citizen, you have to work with the country, hold back your words, and endure it.Because Wang Ai was on the cusp of the storm, he did not return to China with the group after winning the award this time, but only entrusted the little beauty who also came to Kuala Lumpur to bring her two trophies home, and then transferred to Japan with Lao Shen.Laco has also come to Japan to prepare for the 2004 Toyota Cup, which is also an extension of the Intercontinental Cup, the predecessor of the Club World Cup, which is a competition between the champions of European and South American clubs sponsored by Toyota.This is the last peak of this glorious summer in Laco.This also means that Laco has become the strongest team in Spain and the strongest team in Europe this summer, and is moving towards the best team in the world.Although Wang Ai's speech stirred up public opinion for a while, the media focus of the world soon focused on Laco, who will go to Japan to compete with Caldas team in Manizales, Colombia, for the Toyota Cup championship.Because of the Toyota Cup, Laco, a small team in the Galicia region of northwest Spain that has only risen in the past ten years, is heading for an unprecedented "six crowns"!
This is also the most surprising to the outside world.Although this "six crowns" is a year rather than a season, and it is still far from the top six crowns of the same season, it is still a goal that no club in the world has ever achieved, and it is still an unprecedented achievement.Once the Toyota Cup is successfully won, the Laco club, owner Rendo Iro, head coach Iruetta, captain Pablo, main team Belleron, Wang Ai, veteran captain Forlan, Andrade, Scaloni, Romero, Naibet, Victor, etc., will reach the latest peak of their careers.Everyone can publish a book called "The Days of the Six Crowns" in the future!
Even though Laco is in obvious decline this season and the pace of rebuilding is still pushing, the whole team is still going all out for this game, all the main players have been fully rested before, and all the main players have come to Japan.put on a picture of the willingness to give up one or two league games, even the Champions League and the Copa del Rey, and win the Toyota Cup.()
