"Dear viewers, good evening. Today is November 14th, the first day of the tenth lunar month. Welcome to the news broadcast program."

A male announcer in formal attire appeared on the TV screens of millions of families.

Next to him was the same serious female announcer:

"First of all, I will introduce you to the main content of this show..."

"The 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China closed successfully in the Great Hall of the People this morning. The Congress elected a new Central Committee and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and passed a resolution on the report of the 17th Committee..."

"The People's Daily, published tomorrow, will publish a long editorial with the title..."

"Now the list of the new committee..."

"Party members and masses from all over the country warmly celebrate the successful conclusion of the 18th National Congress..."

"Overseas media positively evaluate the 18th National Congress..."

"The seven new party members held a media meeting after the meeting, and Comrade Yuanshan delivered an important speech..."

At the end of such a serious and solemn news, the picture suddenly changed.

What appears in the camera is the Olympic stadium, the Bird's Nest, which is famous for its unique appearance.

"Just an hour ago, the Chinese national men's football team ended the fifth World Cup qualifiers at the Bird's Nest in Beijing. With the cheers of 80,000 fans, the Chinese team defeated Qatar 5-0, won all five games, and won the first place in the group stage. The young men of the Chinese team gave their own gifts to the victory of the 18th National Congress with practical actions!"

The game scene immediately appeared:

Qatar, which can only retain hope of qualifying, only to win, tried to make a strong attack and counterattack from the beginning, but was easily counterattacked by Long Shute, who wore the captain's armband. Before the first half was over, the Chinese team scored three goals in a row, almost securing the victory.

After the second half of the game, Qatar, who had no hope, became weak, but Long Shute led his teammates to strengthen the attack. The Chinese players without psychological pressure made wonderful cooperation many times, but they still needed to improve their goal.

Long Shute contributed three goals and one assist in this game. He even tried the technique of two direct free kicks on Qatar, but due to distance and position, the score was not expanded, but it also shocked the Qatar goalkeeper in a cold sweat.

Long Shute, who ended the game, did not return to the locker room immediately. He led all his teammates to stay at the scene and ran along to express his gratitude to the fans who supported him, which caused a tsunami of thunder among the fans of the audience.

Amid the cheers of the fans, the horn in the stadium notified another thing:

"To celebrate the entry of the Chinese team into the World Cup, a small celebration performance will be held in 10 minutes. Please do not leave the venue for the time being, so as not to cause unnecessary chaos."

At this time, of course, no one will leave early, everyone is still immersed in the joy of five consecutive victories and cannot extricate themselves, and countless people are still letting tears of excitement flow down...

But Long Shute was deeply surprised. He saw a simple and unpretentious middle-aged man in the locker room with an indescribable temperament.

A person who should appear on TV.

"Young guys, congratulations on your ability to qualify for the World Cup with outstanding results."

The middle-aged man spoke with a smile, and said words as kind as any fan.

Long Shute and all the players behind him were frozen in place because the middle-aged man, Director Liu of the General Administration and Chairman Cai of the Football Association were all with great courage to stay aside.

"Captain Long, as a fan, I want to thank you for your great contribution to the development of the country's football career. Thank you for your hard work in the Asian Cup, Olympic champion, and entering the World Cup."

The middle-aged man stretched out his right hand to Long Shute.

Long Shute didn't care about his left and right hands. He directly held the other party's generous and warm big hands with both hands:

"This is what I should do, General Secretary."

The other party smiled:

"Play well at Bayern. I will visit Germany next year. Maybe I will go to Munich to watch your game, so don't let me down."

"Sure." Long Shute suddenly realized that he, who never breathes in his daily conversation, could not speak.

The other party still had a smile on his face:

"By the way, I heard from Director Liu, you were elected as a member of the CPPCC? Do it well, I look forward to you coming up with a good proposal at the Two Sessions next year..."

"What?" Long Shute looked confused, "What proposal?"

Of course, "News Broadcast" will not play these conversations, but will replace them with the announcer's voice:

"The General Secretary cordially visited the Chinese football players who had just won the victory. The captain Long Shute said on behalf of the players that they will continue to work hard and make their due contributions to the development of Chinese football..."

-

"Why don't you tell me in advance that there are such arrangements?"

Long Shute raised his glass, toasted Director Liu, and complained at the same time - this is their celebration banquet.

"You're wrong about us."

Chairman Cai, who was sitting on the other side, quickly explained:

"We received a temporary notice during the intermission. Our newly appointed general secretary wanted to come to the front line to express his condolences to everyone, and he repeatedly told me that we should not add psychological pressure to you. We have no time to notify you."

"Yes, I can't call you down and notify you, right? Then you will definitely scold me for bureaucracy in your heart, hahaha."

Vice Chairman Yu smiled and poured him wine, and the atmosphere at the table became lively again.

Long Shute drank a few more glasses, but he only toasted two glasses to the three big bosses and removed the wine utensils in front of him.

He knew his body very well. He had never drunk a lot of alcohol for more than ten years, so he had almost no resistance to alcohol. Even if he wanted to drink more, it would be a 30-liang amount...

Cao Jingwei sat at the outermost position and looked at a group of big shots on the table. As the leader, he knew that he could not interfere at all, so he simply served food and poured wine to the leaders...

Sometimes he feels that his team leader may be the weakest in Chinese football history, and his influence and voice are far inferior to the team's captain.

But sometimes, he feels that this is not bad. As long as he holds this thigh well, whether it is economic or political interests, it will continue to roll towards him, and a little psychological imbalance will disappear.

More importantly... these interests are basically risk-free, at least you don’t need to worry that you will go to Tieling to be tried by Tieling like the previous few men.

Thinking about it this way, it's pretty good!

The day after the successful conclusion of the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPPCC officially announced a message:

"After recommending by the General Administration of Sports of China and approved by the CPPCC Committee, football player Long Shute officially became a national committee member and will participate in the 12th National Congress held in March 2013."

With him, Yao Ming, who has retired and Liu Xiang, who is close to retirement, are also members of the committee member.

Yao Juren, 33, was elected as a national committee member for the first time, while Xiang Feiren, who is three years younger than him, has held this position for five years.

However, although the 22-year-old Long Ritian is younger than them, he is only the second post-90s elected member nationwide.
