Starting with playing defensive midfield for Evergrande

Chapter 188: Tears in the eyes of our fellow countrymen – this is the most unforgettable moment!
"We won! Damn! We won! Waaaaah!"

Huang Jianxiang, in the commentary booth, was like a madman, repeatedly shouting that we had won. But as he shouted, for some reason, this man, who had never choked up in front of the camera before, suddenly covered his eyes and burst into tears.

Not only Huang Jianxiang, but also Zhan Jun, who was sitting next to him and kept shouting along with Lao Huang, had tears welling up in his eyes without realizing it!
With the commentators reacting like this, the Chinese national team players on the field were naturally even more unable to hold back!

Su Hao!

This rising star, who had already won the triple crown, the Golden Boot, and various other awards, covered his eyes and knelt on the grass as soon as the red flags filled the sky.

Yes!

Of all the others, only Su Hao truly understood what this championship meant!
Without him, the chosen one, and without the top-tier system template that came with his transmigration, there would be no future.

Then the national team in the original timeline will be completely obliterated as a third-rate Asian team starting from this Asian Cup.

Even this 7-goal scoreline would be a humiliating record for the national team, a record handed down by a foreign team!

"We won, Haozi, boohoo!"

Su Hao knelt down, his eyes welling up with tears. Zheng Zhi, the former captain of the national team, also knelt down opposite Su Hao and hugged him.

At first, Zheng Zhi thought of comforting Su Hao, but when he saw Su Hao's tear-filled eyes, the indescribable sorrow and excitement easily brought tears to the eyes of this man in his thirties.

"We are the champions! We are finally the champions!"

Qin Sheng, Zhao Xuri, Hao Junmin, Feng Xiaoting, Yu Hanchao, Wu Lei.
this moment!
Whether it's players from Evergrande or other Chinese Super League teams.

Everyone immediately surrounded Su Hao!

From crying one by one, to finally embracing each other and encouraging one another!
In the end, someone started a fight and rushed to Lippi's side, throwing the old man, who was posing with a cigar in his mouth, into the air!

At the same time, at a university in China.

When the whistle blows.

The entire school's playground, auditorium, dormitories, and classrooms were immediately filled with passionate roars that drove everyone wild.

Moreover, this frantic, cathartic roar showed no sign of stopping!
Soon, young people holding red flags appeared from all over the place!

There were both men and women among them!
There are people who don't like football, and there are people who can stay up until the early hours of the morning every day to watch the games!

but!

At this moment, whether he likes it or not!
They all gathered together like madmen and started singing loudly!

"The five red flags flutter in the wind!"

"How loud the victory song is!"

"Sing of our beloved motherland!"

"."

The college students all went crazy celebrating the Chinese national football team's victory.

same!
Streets all over the country!

Just like when we made it into the World Cup in 01!
When Huang Jianxiang shouted "We are the champions!"

The streets, which were just bustling with traffic, were immediately filled with the frantic honking of horns!
Countless vehicles stopped without any regard for the consequences!
Some even jumped onto the roof of their cars and waved the red flags they had prepared beforehand!

Sina.com, Tencent.com
All domestic online media!

All the satellite TV channels!

At this moment, everyone was broadcasting the latest news of the Chinese team's crushing victory over the South Korean team to win the Asian Cup!
That's crazy!
It's unbelievable!
But this is indeed happening!
It's just the Asian Cup!

Many people might think that compared to the World Cup trophy, it's a meaningless championship.

But even this meaningless championship!
For all Chinese people, this is already the ultimate honor they have ever dreamed of!
10:30 p.m. local time in Sydney.

After countless Chinese fans sang the national anthem countless times.

The awards ceremony, which all Chinese football fans had been eagerly anticipating, finally began.

The first item on the agenda was naturally awarding the silver medal to the runner-up, the South Korean team.

Just as everyone expected.

The South Korean team, whose true colors had been completely exposed by the Chinese team, merely accepted the silver medal from the AFC chairman in a perfunctory manner, and then quickly stuffed it into their pockets after stepping down from the stage.

Especially Son Heung-min, currently South Korea's top rising star.

Seemingly feeling that the silver medal was a disgrace, Son Heung-min threw his medal to a caddie on the sidelines after stepping off the table.

Son Heung-min originally thought there would be a frenzy of competition for caddies and such.

However, Son Heung-min did not expect that the object he threw was a Chinese caddie.

Seeing Son Heung-min's seemingly condescending gesture, the very individualistic caddie not only didn't bend down to pick up the silver medal, but also kicked it back to Son Heung-min.

That kick came out!
Son Heung-min naturally became the focus of many media outlets in an extremely awkward situation!

10:40!
After the South Korean team finished receiving their silver medal.

The climax of this Asian Cup has finally arrived.

"Roar!!!"

"Roar!!!"

Amidst the cheers of 30,000 Chinese fans in the stands.

AFC Chairman Salman smiled and opened the card in his hand.

"The following award is presented to the 2015 AFC Asian Cup Top Scorer—Su Hao!!!"

Salman's signature drawn-out note immediately ignited the excitement of over 30,000 Chinese fans.

At the same time, all the stadium lights focused on Su Hao.

However, just when everyone thought Su Hao would walk onto the award stage under the spotlight, Salman on the stage spoke up again!

"besides!"

"2015 AFC Asian Cup MVP – China Men's National Football Team – Su Hao!!!"

After Salman announced the MVP award winner, Su Hao strode onto the stage amidst the cheers of Qin Sheng and Zhao Xuri.

"This is interesting! Here's a little-known fact for all you fans!"

"In the history of the Asian Cup, there was actually someone before Su Hao who won both the top scorer and MVP awards at the same time!"

Does anyone know who it is?

Surrounded by countless spotlights, Su Hao stood beside Salman and accepted the two most important individual awards of this Asian Cup.

Meanwhile, Huang Jianxiang, the commentator, happily interacted with the Chinese fans in the live broadcast room.
-
Holy crap, I thought this was the first time someone had won two awards, but it turns out there have been before!
-
[Speaking of such a powerful player, he must be a Japanese or South Korean player, right?]
-
[No, Japan and South Korea's performance before the 1990s was mediocre. I'm guessing it's Izuru. That Ariyoi is amazing, so it's probably him!]
-
[I checked the next day, didn't you guys know to just Google it? But believe it or not, I was shocked when I looked it up – it's Jia Xiuquan, from China!]
-
[Holy crap! Jia Xiuquan? That old man who was the head coach of the national football team? Was he that good back then?]
-
[Sigh! We only won the championship today. Actually, our national football team has been quite lavish before. In the 80s and 90s, our players were sent to the Japanese league as a form of technical assistance!]

"Hey! Haozi, you have to treat us tonight! These are two prizes, and you didn't even bother to share one with us!"

After stepping down from the podium, Su Hao was surrounded by his Evergrande friends.

Qin Sheng, in particular, with a sour look in his eyes, grabbed Su Hao's arm and forced him to treat them. "Simple, simple, I've already booked the place in advance, I'll pay for everything tonight!"

"Haha! Haozi, you're an adult now! It's the second show tonight."

"Cough cough cough! What are you saying? There are so many reporters here!"

"Oh! I was wrong, I was wrong!"

Hearing Lao Qin making such a boastful remark at this moment, Zheng Zhi immediately glared at Lao Qin and gave him a reminder.

While two games are a common activity for teams all over the world, it's not really appropriate to bring it up in public!
Especially given Su Hao's current identity!

You should know that Su Hao is not only the vice captain of their national team, but also the image ambassador for youth groups in China!

These old guys don't need a good reputation, but Su Hao can't.

"Alright! Alright, guys! Enough talk, straighten your clothes, we're going on stage!"

10:50!
After all the individual awards, including Best Referee and Zeng Cheng's Best Goalkeeper, were announced.

The final and most important event of the Asian Cup has finally arrived!
"Zhuang Dian'er Tai!"

"Zhuang Dian'er Tai!"

"This is a live broadcast of the 2015 AFC Asian Cup awards ceremony!"

What you're about to see is...!

"The final moments of this Asian Cup!"

"AFC Chief Minister Salman presents the award to the champion team!"

Although this award presentation speech had been rehearsed countless times beforehand.

But when he actually said those words, Lao Huang in the commentary booth couldn't help but tremble.

Meanwhile, on the awards stage at the same time.

Zheng Zhi and Su Hao led the entire Chinese team, following behind Lippi, onto the podium.

Each of them received a gold medal, which was then placed on Su Hao and the others.

Once all the gold medals are won, and Coach Lippi and his coaching team take to the field...

Salman finally handed the Asian Cup trophy, the highest honor in Asian football, to Zheng Zhi.

"Come on! Haozi, hurry up, this is my last time. I want to take this opportunity to hand over our team to you!"

Su Hao was originally about to stand next to Zheng Zhi and start bending down to squat.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Zhi shouted and handed the trophy to Su Hao.

Moreover, while handing over the trophy, Zheng Zhi also took off the armband that symbolized the captain from his own arm and put it on Su Hao's arm without hesitation, thus giving up the center position.

"Brother Zhi"

Looking at Zheng Zhi's eyes, which were once again filled with tears.

Su Hao was at a loss for words!

"Stop being so wishy-washy, I'm over thirty, I'm getting old! From now on, our national team will be counting on you!"

"Hey! Hurry up!"

Zheng Zhi patted Su Hao on the shoulder and said.

At the same time, the DJ at the scene played "We Are the Champion," a must-have song for any awards ceremony!

Amidst the stirring music!
Su Hao, Zheng Zhi, Zhao Xuri, Feng Xiaoting
All the players, dressed in their red national team jerseys, held their breath, waiting for the climax of the moment!
"we are the champions- my friend!"

“we are the champions!!!”

Just at the climax of the song!
Su Hao suddenly stood up and raised the Asian Cup trophy above his head!
"boom!!!"

The fireworks and gold ribbons that had been set up beforehand at the Sydney Olympic Stadium erupted the moment Su Hao's trophy was awarded.

"boom!!!!"

"boom!!!!!"

The more than 30,000 Chinese fans in the stands began what was perhaps the most frenzied roar and cheers of their lives.

Meanwhile, the national team players on the podium embraced each other passionately, dancing wildly to Su Hao's already very familiar championship dance moves!

that's it!
The deafening cheers completely engulfed the entire Sydney Olympic Stadium!
same!
At the same time, everyone on the field was in a frenzy.

Back home, so far away!
Countless bars!
Countless schools!
Countless streets!
There were even brightly lit living rooms in various residential complexes!
Anyone who follows Chinese football erupted in wildest roars and cheers, as if the Chinese team had won the World Cup!
This was definitely a sleepless night.

Right there in the locker room after the game!

The Chinese Football Association then officially announced a hefty bonus of 5000 million yuan for winning the championship.

And it wasn't just the Football Association that awarded so much.

Huawei, a sponsor of this year's national football team, has also contributed 100 million yuan in bonuses to all players and coaching staff!

One hundred million!
While this figure may not seem like much to Su Hao, who is now a shoo-in for the world's highest salary, it is indeed a considerable sum for players like Wu Lei and Zhang Linpeng, who have spent all their money to pursue their careers overseas.

of course!

Old Fan was the happiest!
Lao Fan doesn't care about bonuses anymore; what makes him happy is that his agent just called.

In the twenty minutes since the awards ceremony ended, at least four companies have already asked him to be their spokesperson.

According to his agent's preliminary calculations, his commercial endorsement fees in China have increased tenfold just from the Asian Cup alone!
Old Fan chuckled and started daydreaming about whether his future income would allow him to achieve financial freedom.

At the same time, Su Hao quietly slipped away from Lao Qin and the others who were sticking to him and went into the toilet.

It wasn't that Su Hao wasn't going to treat everyone; it was just that he heard the system's crisp and pleasant notification sound as soon as he returned to the locker room.

"Ding dong!"

Main quest: Win the Intercontinental Cup - Completed!

"Host has obtained: Tournament MVP, Tournament Golden Boot!"

"Host's mission completion rate: SSS!"

"The mission reward has been upgraded to a legendary treasure chest!"

What the hell!

That was awesome!

I heard that another legendary treasure chest dropped during this mission.

Su Hao naturally roared with excitement.

The legendary treasure chests have yielded quite a few top-tier items before, and this time Su Hao is really looking forward to whether this legendary treasure chest will drop another top-tier item for him!
A card with maxed-out attributes?
Or perhaps a permanent injury and illness immunity card?
