"Good evening, everyone, welcome to watch the World Cup special program that is broadcast regularly every day - a feast of wealthy families."

Zhang Bin, the famous host of CCTV Sports Channel, appeared on TV again:

"There are three days left before the opening of the World Cup, and the preparations for the 32 teams have come to an end. Just yesterday, the last round of warm-up matches was over, and the World Cup was getting closer and closer to us. Yuxi, let me introduce to you what new news has been recently."

He was surrounded by Liu Yuxi, a young female host of the basketball program:

"In a warm-up match between Germany and Armenia that just ended, German striker Marco Reus was unfortunately injured in the fight. According to the experts' diagnosis, Reus had partially torn the tibiophytic ligament in his left ankle and would miss the Brazil World Cup 100%.

Known as the "Little Rockets", Reus is the star of the Bundesliga powerhouse Dortmund and a representative of the new generation of German football. His outstanding skills and handsome appearance have also attracted countless fans for him. His absence not only affected the German team's frontcourt offensive firepower, but also destined to be a regret for this World Cup.

Compared to Germany, there are still several powerful people who have a hard time. The French team's offensive core Ribery, Dutch midfielder Van der Fate, Italian main midfielder Montolivo, and Colombian striker Falcao were all knocked down by injuries and had to withdraw from the World Cup. The absence of these stars may have a huge impact on the strength and tactics of each team, and the head coaches must have a headache."

Liu Yuxi paused for a moment and breathed a sigh of relief:

“In addition, there are a few small tidbits…

On the evening of June 8, French media revealed that the African Lions Cameroon team should have boarded the plane to Brazil according to the schedule, but the team broke out infighting before boarding. The reason was that the players believed that the Football Association had too few prizes for the game...

It is reported that the Cameroon Football Association has prepared a 37,000 euro game bonus for each player, which is the smallest of all participating teams. It is no wonder that even if the president's special plane came to pick it up, they refused to board the plane. Fortunately, the president's residence publicly promised to significantly increase the treatment of players, and the players led by Etoo took the first step toward Brazil.

In addition, the hotel where the Italian team was about to stay was found to have serious food safety problems. During a surprise inspection by government departments, it was found that a large amount of food sold in the hotel had safety hazards, and some of the expired food was even served directly on the dining table.

The same problem has also been discovered in the English team's hotel. It is not difficult to see that if the Brazil World Cup is to be held smoothly, there are still quite a few problems with the hosting."

Zhang Bin smiled:

"Fortunately, the Chinese team has airlifted the required food in Brazil in advance. This is a foresight for the Football Association to be prepared for any incidents... Let's focus on the latest situation of the Chinese team."

As soon as he arrived at the Chinese team, Mr. Zhang took the stage in person:

"After the warm-up match with Uruguay, the Chinese team did not play the second game, but continued to concentrate on training. According to the reporter's interview, in the last three days, the training content of the Chinese team was still mainly familiar with tactics, and the training volume would be appropriately reduced so that the players could maintain physical fitness. Now please see the real-time interview brought by the reporters in front..."

As the picture turned, Zhu Xiaoyu, who was guarding outside the training ground, appeared in the camera:

"The one standing by my side is the captain of the national team, Long Shute. Can you talk about the current status of the team?"

Long Shute had already accepted an exclusive interview with this topic before, so he did not hesitate to answer:

"We are in good condition, and the Football Association's logistics support is also very good. We have not experienced any injuries and are not too serious. The players are training according to the established arrangements. I believe that this state can continue until the official start of the World Cup."

Zhu Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly:

"As the captain of the national team, have you ever considered how far can we go in this competition with our strength?"

As a royal reporter who has followed Longshute for a season, his questioning skills have been improved to a certain extent, otherwise he would have asked directly "What are the goals set by the Football Association for the team?"...

Long Shute thought for a moment and answered slightly seriously:

"After the group draw results came out, most people actually thought it was a good draw, and I was no exception. But during this period, I had to overturn my previous understanding by analyzing the data and observing the status.

Our first opponent, Côte d'Ivoire, ranked 23rd in the FIFA ranking just announced, slightly higher than us. The opponent in the second game, Colombia is the 8th team in the world, and the third opponent, Greece, also ranked 12th. Among the four teams in the group stage, our ranking is the lowest. This is an objective fact and we must face it.

However, this does not mean that we have no hope of advancing, because the FIFA ranking is not absolute. Even if it is absolute, there are countless examples of weak defeating strong on the football field, not to mention that these opponents are not impeccable.

The highest ranking Colombia has missed this top competition for many years since the 1998 World Cup. Their players lack experience, while we have played a Confederation Cup last year and have played against top teams such as Italy and Spain, which is even better than Colombia in terms of experience.

The Greek team has a tough style, but their tactics are relatively single and they are weak in attacking. There are many veterans in the Ivory Coast. Two days ago, there were a little disharmonious factors. The players generally lack motivation, which are all weaknesses that we can take advantage of.

So, if I had to make a prediction, we could at least win two games in the group stage, and there should be no problem in advancing to the knockout stage. As for how far the knockout stage can go, this is not a question we can consider now. After all,... the teams in the same district are full of powerful players, and this is almost the most fiercely competitive among the four major regions."

Long Shute smiled and finally made a joke:

"By the way, if there are fans who want the Chinese team to win the final championship, then I must pour some cold water here. I hope you don't criticize me after the game. We have indeed made some progress in recent years, but these progress is not enough to win the championship. Well, of course, it is not completely impossible to win the championship..."

He subconsciously wanted to pretend, but finally resisted this behavior of losing character.

After all, the national team is not a club!

-

The picture returns to the studio.

Liu Yuxi said with a smile:

"It can be seen that after just winning the fourth Champions League championship in his career, our young Captain Long still maintains a very clear mind. For the three opponents in the group stage, he saw not only the objective strength of the opponent, but also their weaknesses. He hopes that this soberness can lead the Chinese team to win."

Zhang Bin also nodded:

"That's right, just like Long Shute said, the opponent is very strong, but we also have the opportunity. We must neither be overly negative nor overly optimistic. We must maintain a normal mind, step by step, and move forward with a down-to-earth."

As a major show, "The Feast of Wealthy Family" is not just news and interviews. Big names from all walks of life and sports have appeared to show off their presence, and those rookies have even cut their heads and wanted to get the popularity.

The lineup hosted not only included Zhang Bin's team, but also professionals such as Zhang Lu, Xu Yang, Sun Baojie, etc., and even a super model was arranged to attract male audiences...

Zhao Zhongxiang performed a commentary on the "Animal World" version on the live.

Grandpa Bi took the top three players of the year from "Battle of Stars" and the sports channel team to compete on-site.

Spain and the Dutch ambassador to China dissected the 2010 World Cup final on the spot.

Later, it was not just a football powerhouse. The program team invited almost half of the national ambassadors to China to come to the studio to predict the achievements of their national team. Of course, they were soft-hearted, and these ambassadors either convinced or praised them insincerely, "The Chinese team is also very strong." "Captain Long is the best in the world, long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long, of course, and the ambassadors were either convinced or sincerely praised the Chinese amusement, "The Chinese team is also very strong", "Captain Long is the best in the world", creating a small atmosphere of "all nations come to pay tribute".

Later, these ambassadors were also unique and brought the program team special food from their respective countries, sharing it with the hosts and audiences. The entire studio was filled with a strong fragrance, turning this football program into a food program.

In addition, Shui Junyi and Zhu Xun are engaged in charity with affectionate feelings, Sha Baoliang, Li Yundi, Wang Zhengliang, Li Yuchun, Chen Chusheng and Zhang Liangying sang on the stage, Lang Lang plays the piano, Wu Qilong, Huang Zheng, Wang Zhizhi, Tan Jing, celebrities from all walks of life share their experiences in watching the game, Miao Fu, Wang Sheng, Wang Zijian, led a group of language performers to present jokes, Lin Chiling became the "most coquettish commentator", many beauties competed to be vases, three tenors talked about the song and dance performances of the opening ceremony, Ma Mingyu, Hao Haidong, Fan Zhiyi and other former international players sent their blessings, international students performing programs from various countries, grassroots fans accepted interviews, representatives of the provincial football associations praised the dividends of Chinese football reform, and even found goldfish, cats, police dogs, alpacas and other animals to predict which team could win...

As the World Cup gets closer, the ratings of this show are also rising.

Although the quality and production level of the program have been criticized repeatedly, it is undeniable that CCTV, which has huge resources, is still the leader in this industry, not to mention... they monopolized the exclusive copyright of the World Cup and established close interest links with FIFA. Even if other media want to conduct such all-round reports, they have no conditions at all.

Time slowly came to June 12th.

The 2014 Brazil World Cup finally kicked off!
Chapter completed!
