After the signing ceremony, accompanied by chairman David Gill, Gao Xiaodong attended the press conference for the first time as a Manchester United player to say hello to the Red Devils all over the world.
Gao Xiaodong expressed his excitement to join Manchester United and hoped to help them win all the titles. In the end, Gao Xiaodong also said that he would help Sir Alex achieve his dream of surpassing Liverpool in the league and Champions League.
Gao Xiaodong's signing ceremony is broadcast live all over the world. After hearing Gao Xiaodong's speech, Manchester United fans can't believe it, because Manchester United have two less Champions League titles than Liverpool, and they need to win at least three more. Liverpool fans think Gao Xiaodong is boasting. It's normal for Manchester United to catch up with Liverpool and win one or two more. But if they want to win three Champions League titles, that's Jane It's just a dream.
United fans don't care about Gao Xiaodong's speech. They think it must have been written in advance. What they want to see is the following reporter's questions. They believe that Gao Xiaodong will show them his true side only under the tricky questions of the notorious English reporter.
Sky sports reporter first asked: Gao, do you know who the three statues of Old Trafford are?
It's a normal question that any Manchester United fan can answer, but non Manchester United fans may not know.
Fortunately, Gao Xiaodong made preparations ahead of time, remembered the names of the three statues at Old Trafford stadium and said without thinking: "best, Charlton and Dennis. Thank you
Watching Gao Xiaodong blurt out the names of the legendary Manchester United stars represented by the three statues at Old Trafford stadium, Manchester United fans are very satisfied. No matter whether Gao Xiaodong is a Manchester United fan or not, he at least knows about Manchester United and likes Manchester United. Unlike the current boss of Manchester United, Glazer just regards Manchester United as his money making tool.
The sky sports reporter then asked, "can you tell me what you know about Manchester United in three English words?"
Gao Xiaodong knows a lot about Manchester United, but his English is so poor that he has to say: "I'm sorry, my English is so poor. Please allow me to reply in Chinese. I'm enthusiastic, tough and aggressive. That's my understanding of Manchester United, and that's what attracts me most."
Gao Xiaodong often uses Portuguese to communicate with the fans and reporters, which gives people a good feeling of foreign language. Manchester United fans did not expect that Gao Xiaodong's English is so poor that they can't speak three words, which makes them full of doubts about whether Gao Xiaodong can integrate into the Manchester United dressing room. As we all know, in Manchester United, the English native group has the absolute advantage, and only Nani and ander speak Portuguese Sen.
"Can you tell me your position at Manchester United?" the times asked
Gao Xiaodong said: "I should hit the centre half. I don't have any special requirements for the position. As long as I can help the team win, I don't even have to play as a guard. However, Manchester United's back line is so strong, it is estimated that I will not be used as a defender
Gao Xiaodong's words are very beautiful. The reporters all nodded their heads secretly. The EQ of the new No. 10 and old No. 10 of Manchester United is not the same level. Look at the excuse Rooney made for the transfer, he said that Manchester United didn't buy world-class stars and had no ambition. No wonder the fans nicknamed him Lu ambition.
Manchester United fans were not confident because of Gao Xiaodong's volleying and his English. When they saw Gao Xiaodong's answers to reporters' questions, half of their tears came back. It is estimated that there is no problem for them to integrate into the dressing room.
Then the reporter asked Gao Xiaodong if there was any pressure for him to become the most valuable player in the history of Manchester United. Gao Xiaodong replied with a smile: "I may have the heaviest weight in Manchester United, but the pressure will never be the biggest. To say the pressure, I had more pressure last season, but we all saw the final result."
An Italian reporter asked sharply: "do you feel sorry for the fans who love you when you leave after joining inter for one season?"
Gao Xiaodong said: "no, it's not a matter of time. Although I have only joined for one year, I have completed the task that other inter players have not completed in 45 years. So I think I am worthy of the fans of Inter. Maybe they want me to win more reputation for Inter, but I want to try a new championship."
Then the sun reporter asked, "does your transfer have anything to do with Rooney's preparation to leave? Are you here to replace Rooney? "
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "my transfer to Manchester United has nothing to do with Rooney. My position is different from Rooney. On the contrary, I think we can complement each other completely. I hope Rooney will stay."
"The sun" reporter asked unkindly: "is it to let Rooney stay to help you? Just like Ronaldo did when he was here
This is a question full of malice. The saying that Rooney died for Ronaldo prevailed in the British Isles for a while. The arrogant British fans and media all think that if Rooney does not die for Ronaldo, he will have a chance to win the golden ball award.
Journalists and fans who like Gao Xiaodong are sweating for him. Rooney is the number one of Manchester United no matter whether he goes or not. They are all worried about his inappropriate answer.
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "the team is a whole. We all come together for the championship. There is no one to sacrifice for. Otherwise, the defender, the goalkeeper and the midfield all sacrificed for the striker. I believe Rooney will not think that he is sacrificing for Ronaldo. He is fighting for Manchester United. He is a great player."Gao Xiaodong's wonderful answer made all the reporters clap. This is indeed a very clever answer.
The Manchester United fans who watched the live broadcast were even more happy. Many people said on the Internet: "look, it's only 20 years old! This is the material of a leader! " "There has never been such a glamorous superstar since Cantona." "Absolute future king! A hundred times better than that Dongfang Zhuo! " "Dongfang Zhuo also matches Xiaodong Gaobi!"
Rooney also sat at home watching the live broadcast of Gao Xiaodong's signing. Seeing Gao Xiaodong's reply, Rooney said to his agent streford: "this Chinese expert is not bad."
Stryford said coldly: "hypocrisy! He robbed you of your shirt. Now he speaks well of you. Don't believe him. Chinese people are very cunning. This little wax gourd is particularly cunning and obscene. Did you forget about the game? "
Rooney remembered Gao Xiaodong's obscene behavior in the game, such as diving and lying on grass, nodded and said: "yes, this boy is very cunning."
"Trevort said:" little wax gourd has come, you can't keep your position. He is the original Ronaldo. If you want to be the boss, you have to leave. However, Manchester City is too dangerous in the past. Manchester United fans won't let you go. Otherwise, you can go to Chelsea. How much is your salary, but if you can play in the Champions League, you have a big chance of winning the championship. "
"I'll think about it again," Rooney said Rooney can't make up his mind because Ferguson is in love with his father and son. He can't bear to break with Ferguson directly.
Rooney's wife Colin was not very angry and said: "trust Mr. Stratford. He is for your own good. Ferguson just wants you to stay and work for him. He retired with honor."
Colin is just an ordinary girl next door. It's Stratford who makes her a star. She is very trusting and obedient to Stratford, even though Stratford is very unreliable.
Rooney was a little afraid and said, "I believe Mr. Stratford, but it's still early. We can wait."
"It's OK, we're waiting for the price. The more we wait, the higher the price will be," he said
While Rooney was discussing whether to stay or not, Gao Xiaodong also finished answering the reporter's questions and had lunch with Manchester United CEO David Gill.
David Gill was very satisfied with Gao Xiaodong's performance at the press conference. During the meeting, he praised Gao Xiaodong constantly and thought that Gao Xiaodong was fully capable of serving as the captain of Manchester United. However, this was also a big pie for Gao Xiaodong. Manchester United's captain was not a casual one.
After lunch, Gao Xiaodong goes back to the hotel to have a rest and get jet lag ready for the first training class at Carrington training base tomorrow morning.
