In the early morning of June 6, the national team ate the last breakfast of cereal, milk, bread, eggs, mixed vegetables, and steamed stuffed buns at the military camp deep in the Yanshan Mountains. A bus with curtains headed to the Olympic Sports Center in the center of Beijing.

The 84 national youths depart from here, the 86 national youths depart from here, the 85 national youths depart from here, and the 85 national Olympics depart from here. Now it is the turn of the Gao Jiajun to depart from here. It is impossible to say whether Director Vidi, who arranged all of this, moved the idea of ​​metaphysics, or was it just a coincidence.

Soon after the national team arrived in the Olympic Sports Center meeting room, the door opened and a **** who often appeared in "News Broadcast" appeared first with a smile, followed by Director Liu of the General Administration of Sports, and then the newly appointed Deputy Director of the General Administration of Sports. Yan Shiduo, Director Wei Di, Deputy Director Zhang Jilong, and retired old director Yuan Weimin, old director Wang Junsheng, and old director Nian Weisi!

"Sit down, sit down." **** smiled and waved, and the national team stopped applauding. After the leaders sat down, they sat opposite the leaders in turn.

"Leaders take the time today. One is to visit you and the other is to listen to your plans." Director Liu said: "This is a big deal and you must be cautious. Many tasks must be prepared in advance. But the game is accidental after all. Isn’t there a saying in the world? That football is round?"

The leaders smiled, and the atmosphere was fairly relaxed. Director Liu also smiled and continued: "What is supporting your goal? You have to explain today. How much and to what extent the country should prepare for your possibilities. It depends on what you do next. Xiao Gao, Xiao Li, oh, and Xiao Wanger, especially your Xiao Wanger, your eloquence is famous all over the world, in order to prevent you from fooling the organization, we specially invited Director Yuan to come today. , I also invited the Marshal Nian."

Wang Ai scratched his face and smiled.

The "preparatory work" mentioned by the leaders has been analyzed with everyone in advance. There are four main aspects: First, the national team has really achieved its goal, and the leader must be interviewed. The specifications are high, but the leader is so busy. It’s hard to spare a lot of time if you make an appointment in advance; second, you have to prepare in advance what show, what lines to use, what caliber, and what layout to give, so as to save people from watching the hit drama and watch it well, click. It will be cut in one click. If the audience is not a fan, they will have to scold their mothers. Third, there must be a large number of units that will invite you to give a report and have a party, such as the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Public Security. Who is in front and who is behind? The foot control center is at the main hall level, and it can't be arranged at all; the fourth is the fans, it's okay to celebrate, but what if the music becomes riot? This must be arranged in advance through local sports bureaus, football associations, and fan organizations.

Therefore, the national team's swearing-in meeting/tactical briefing/prospect analysis meeting must give the leaders a reassurance.

Director Wei Di, the host of today's meeting, looked around and said simply: "Let's get started."

Gao Hongbo opened the notepad in front of him: "Dear leaders, today's tactical briefing will be my lecture, and Li Bing, Fan Zhiyi, and Xiao Wanger will also speak."

When meeting several leaders across the board, he nodded slightly, and Gao Hongbo said solemnly: "It started with the Confederations Cup last year. After returning, we concluded that according to the general rules of football, the upper limit of our team is the World Cup semi-finals. This is It is calculated based on the data of the team and league level of our players, and for this, it has the academic support of Professor You Hong from the Department of Mathematics of Tsinghua University."

Speaking of this, Gao Hongbo paused and looked at the leaders on the opposite side: "But after the results came out, the team members were very dissatisfied. One night Xiao Wanger came to me and said something that shocked me. He said this. Words are the second motivation for our goal this time. Xiao Wanger, what did you do at the time, tell the leaders."

Wang Ai, who was sitting next to Ma Dong, saw that the leaders looked at him and said seriously: "I told Director Gao at that time that I am 23 years old, and I will be 24 for the World Cup. I will be 28 for the next edition. Some of my teammates are 30. And the last group of teammates, such as Sun Jihai and Bai Guanghai, will definitely retire by then. If I don’t take advantage of my best age next year to fight and fight, I’ll be in this life. There is no chance. Therefore, no matter what Professor You’s calculation result is, I don’t recognize it! I must fight for it!"

The leaders all showed gratifying smiles. Athletes, they should have this vigorous vigor!

"Later, I talked to you about this idea, and everyone's thoughts were similar." Wang Ai paused: "We are a team stepping on flowers and applause all the way. Our strength may be limited, but our heart is very strong. We have a lot of courage!"

Wang Ai breathed a sigh of relief: "Later, we found a high-level instructor together with the team leader Liu at the time. We all agreed that, in any case, we must not fail our good years, the country's years of training, and the countless past champions. ; Anyway, look farther first."

After Wang Ai finished speaking, he looked at Gao Hongbo, and Gao Hongbo continued: "The players' such strong beliefs also touched me. In any case, although our retired former internationals are no longer playing on the court, they cannot be given to the current players. The national team is holding back. Since they are going to play, we will help them play and fight together."

Lao Gao adjusted his breath and continued: "But our hard power lies here. Our calculations on the prospects of the game may not be very rigorous, but it is not crazy. From this period of time, the odds of major European sports media and betting companies From a point of view, it is basically consistent with our calculation. This means that we have to break this ceiling. We cannot rely on ourselves. We must borrow external forces to obtain new support. Of course, it is not that the state has given us insufficient support, but The way of thinking, in Xiao Wanger's words, is intellectual support."

"This is our third motivation for this meeting." Gao Hongbo pondered for a moment and looked at Zhang Zhaozhong who was sitting on the edge of the conference table. Professor Zhang who felt his gaze smiled, Gao Hongbo continued: "So, We have found the National Defense University. Our goal is to learn from the PLA, learn from the PLA, which has turned countless impossible things into possible Struggle strategies, learn their tactics and ideas, so as to broaden our horizons, open our minds, and explore the way to achieve our goals."
