Madrid, Airport Terminal.
The Sports Channel's "Football Night" program team was waiting for their flight. They were going to take the night flight back to Beijing.
"Where's Little Duan?" Chen Wenqiang asked.
"He went to the bathroom," Liu Jianhong replied.
At this time, Duan Xuan came back with a stack of newspapers in his hand. He was reading it with great interest.
"Little Duan, can you understand it?" Liu Jianhong asked with a smile.
"I can guess a little. There are pictures." Duan Xuan shook his head and said with a smile.
Everyone took the newspapers in his hand and looked down. They could guess the meaning.
"It's all about the Copa del Rey semi-final between Sporting de Gijón and Real Zaragoza!" Duan Xuan said.
It was a copy of Marca. On the second page, there was a big picture of Li Ang waving his arms to celebrate a goal.
There was also a copy of La Repubblica. It used a picture of Li Ang raising his arms and looking around the field proudly. It was the end of the game and Sporting de Gijón had reached the final of the Copa del Rey. Li Ang celebrated.
The Madrid Post used two pictures. One was of Li Ang standing on the sidelines with the substitute goalkeeper, Roberto. This was the scene where Roberto was about to change to Roberto. The other picture was of Roberto jumping to save Villa's penalty kick. Obviously, the media's report focused on Li Ang's magical substitution. Changing the goalkeeper to save the penalty kick! This was a magical performance that had never been seen in the history of football!
"Sporting de Gijón and Li Ang can be said to be a sensation in Spain now," Chen Wenqiang said with a sigh.
"I have an idea," Liu Jianhong said.
"Jianhong, what is it?" Chen Wenqiang said.
"We can find someone to translate the content of these newspapers and use it in the program," Liu Jianhong said.
"Good idea!" Everyone clapped and praised.
"We don't have anyone here who can speak Spanish." Someone raised a question.
"Idiot, when we return to China, there will definitely be someone in the station who can speak Spanish. Besides, if it doesn't work, we can find Little Shen and let him translate it and send us an email," Duan Xuan said with a smile. Little Shen was the translator that the embassy had found for them.
"Good idea, it's settled." Chen Wenqiang also nodded and made the decision.

Li Ang was also reading the newspaper. This had become a bad hobby for him to satisfy his vanity. It felt really good to read the newspapers that didn't like him but had to flatter him.
The headline of the report in Marca was: "Sporting de Gijón advances to the Copa del Rey final": "This was a very interesting match. Sporting de Gijón had a player sent off at the start of the match and was awarded a penalty kick. However, the red and white teams' China manager made a miraculous substitution to save the match!" In the end, this Segunda División team eliminated Real Zaragoza and successfully reached the final of the Copa del Rey!
La Repubblica: Sporting de Gijón's China coach, Li Ang, has once again created a miracle. His team has won the ticket to the Bernabéu. In a situation where they had to play with ten players for nearly ninety minutes, Sporting de Gijón showed their tenacity and efficiency! Mata once again became Mr. Key, and Manager Li Ang's miraculous substitution and targeted tactics once again made Fernandez's team suffer! This northern team, after twenty-one years, has once again reached the final of the Copa del Rey!
Madrid Post: Sporting de Gijón's China coach, Li Ang, has shown us his magic. In a situation where a penalty kick was awarded in the first five minutes of the match, he unbelievably replaced the starting goalkeeper with the substitute goalkeeper, Roberto. Such a substitution has never been done before! Obviously, Manager Li Ang brought on Roberto to save the penalty kick. As we all know, the goalkeeper is on the passive side because of his uniqueness in penalty kicks. You can't say for sure which goalkeeper will be able to save a penalty kick. However, Manager Li Ang seemed to be certain that the goalkeeper he brought on had the ability! The result was also shocking. Roberto saved Villa's penalty kick! In fact, Villa's penalty kick was of high quality, but it was still saved! This was the most exciting moment, the most magical moment! This China coach made the El Molinon Stadium go crazy!
ABC: Congratulations to Sporting de Gijón, congratulations to this northern team. The red and white teams that were once far away from people's sight are back again. They have reached the final of the Copa del Rey! They advanced by stepping on the corpses of Real Zaragoza! This Segunda División team, after the China coach took over the team, had a new look. They played amazing football!
These big Spanish media, as well as the big media in the capital, Madrid, were also full of praise for Li Ang and Sporting de Gijón.
The other Spanish media were so full of praise, and the local media in Gijón were even crazier.
The Voice of Gijón even excitedly praised Li Ang as Sporting de Gijón's savior. The newspaper listed Li Ang's achievements since he coached Sporting de Gijón to prove it. Finally, the Voice of Gijón excitedly called on Sporting de Gijón's fans to march to Madrid and the Bernabéu on May 6th! This final of the Copa del Rey was the return of the former king of the north!
The Daily Gijón used the picture of Li Ang celebrating when Mata scored on their front page: Coach Li Ang has once again shown his magic. Little Mata has once again become Mr. Key. Our team has stood up from the decadence of two months ago! Now Sporting de Gijón is not afraid of anyone!
On the Sporting de Gijón Club Forum, Sporting de Gijón's fans were even more jubilant. The fans crazily posted, praising the team and the manager, Li Ang. Some fans also issued a call for everyone to start preparing now for the night of the Bernabéu on May 6th!

Beijing.
Central TV Headquarters.
The program team of "Soccer Night" was busy going in circles.
They now needed to integrate and edit the footage they had filmed in Gijón, as well as the video of the Copa del Rey semi-final between Sporting de Gijón and Real Zaragoza that the Spanish Football Federation had provided them, to be ready for tonight's broadcast.
As everyone knew, "Soccer Night" was a recorded broadcast. That was, it was recorded first and then broadcast. This time, because time was tight, it could almost be said to be a live broadcast. Just as the program was finished, the other side had to broadcast it almost immediately. It could be seen how tight time was.
While the program team was busy here, the Central TV Sports Channel was already crazily advertising and promoting.
The television screen showed a program preview almost every hour. At the bottom of the television screen, the scrolling subtitles kept scrolling, previewing this episode of "Soccer Night."
"Sporting News of Gijón!" : China's Young Marshal Shakes His Might in Spanish Football. Watch Coach Li Ang's Sporting de Gijón. The return of the former king of the north. This is the era that belongs to Li Ang and his players! They have shocked the entire Spanish football world! At Sporting de Gijón's El Molinón Stadium, Li Ang is the savior!
This was the rolling caption of the sports channel. It could be said to be extremely attractive. The fans and spectators who were watching could be said to be immediately interested and looking forward to it. Even just looking at the caption made one's blood boil.

At Li Ang's house.
Li Ang's father was on the phone.
"Third Brother, remember to watch tonight's" Soccer Night. "It's a special program about Huazi and his team.
"Old Xu, you must watch tonight's" Soccer Night. "Haha, you know. Wait for it. Haha, good, good, good!
"Old Liu, don't forget to watch … What? It's already in front of the television. Haha, you're more anxious than I am.
"Old Zheng, what? You're working overtime today. Ah, forget it. It's fine. What? You brought your son's laptop over. Let's watch it on the computer. Haha, okay, okay. Be careful that your son doesn't get angry with you. "
Li Ang's mother looked at her husband who was constantly on the phone with a happy smile on her face. For the old couple, their son's success was the thing that made them the happiest and proudest thing.
"You've made all the calls you should have, right?" Li Ang's father hung up the phone and asked his wife.
"I've made all the calls. You've been on the phone for an hour. This month's phone bill is going to be tough."
"This is a good thing. I'm happy. You're still worried about the phone bill."
"Okay, okay, okay. As long as you're happy."
"Who asked our son to be so successful?"
"Look at how capable you are," Li Ang's mother said with a smile.
"I'm going to hold my head up high. I'm going to make a comeback." Li Ang's father said, "When I think of the rumors spread by Daily Sports, I get angry. You don't know how irritated I was for the past few days. It felt like someone was poking at my back and saying that our son was a liar."
"Now you're happy, right?"
"Of course. If we're happy, someone will be afraid."
"They deserve it!" Li Ang's mother said. She knew that her husband was talking about those people from Daily Sports.
*****
Li Ang's father and Li Ang's mother were right. At this moment, in the headquarters of Daily Sports, the meeting room of the news agency was brightly lit.
The meeting room was filled with smoke. People who worked in the media were usually heavy smokers. With more than ten people sitting together and smoking, the result was obvious.
"Let's talk about it. What should we do?" Zhang Zegang knocked on the table and said in a deep voice.
Ever since he found out that the Central TV Sports Channel was going to do a special feature on Li Ang and Sporting de Gijón during Soccer Night, Zhang Zegang was in a bad mood.
Especially this afternoon, the sports channel was almost crazy to promote this episode of "Football Night" special program "Xixing Manji". Zhang Zegang was so anxious that he had already smashed a few teacups in the office.
"Old Li, how's the communication going on your side?" a deputy editor asked.
Old Li was the director of the public relations department of the news agency.
Everyone looked at Old Li.
Old Li was sweating profusely. He took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead and said helplessly, "I've tried, but it's no use. The sports channel doesn't care at all. They're the official media, so they're already good at it. Now that they're in high spirits, they don't care about us at all."
"Yeah, we were the ones begging them, but now they're ignoring us even more."
"This is difficult. The sports channel's influence is too big. This is too bad."
"If you ask me, it's all Gao Bo's fault."
"That's right, that's right. It's Gao Bo's fault! These people nowadays only want to fabricate fake news. They have no professional ethics at all. "
"Whoever caused the trouble will have to bear the responsibility!"
"This is not a matter of responsibility. This is a major incident. The last episode of World Football was already promoting Li Ang. Now, Football Night is even doing a special feature. The impact is too bad!"
"I suggest that the news agency should be reorganized internally, do a self-examination, and carry out professional ethics education activities."
"That's right. Gao Bo is a classic example. He's an absolute negative example!"
Everyone was discussing animatedly. They were filled with righteous indignation and looked like they were going to chop Gao Bo into eight pieces to vent their anger.
Zhang Zegang's face was gloomy. Listening to these people talk, the anger in his heart kept rising. Finally, the anger rose to his head and he could no longer suppress it.
*****
With a bang, Zhang Zegang slammed the table hard.
"Enough!" Zhang Zegang shouted angrily. "Gao Bo, Gao Bo, Gao Bo! Gao Bo has already been fired. What's the use of talking about Gao Bo now? Chop him into eight pieces. Will this matter be resolved? "
"The main point now is that we have to eliminate the negative impact of this matter. After the broadcast of World Football on the sports channel last time, many readers have sent letters and called to question us. If Football Night is broadcast this time, we all know how great his influence will be."
"Director Zhang, we understand what you mean, but we can't control 'Football Night'," someone said weakly.
"It's useless!" Zhang Zegang scolded.
After being scolded, the person muttered in his heart, "If it's useful, do it. If you have a way, do it." However, he only dared to complain in his heart. At that moment, everyone could see that Zhang Zegang was angry. He did not dare to be unlucky.
"If you ask me, let's reconcile with them," someone suggested.
"Reconcile? With who? "someone asked.
"With who else? With Li Ang, of course."
"Is it useful to reconcile now? We're talking about Football Night now. The problem now is to stop Football Night from being broadcast. "
"Do you only know how to say that we can stop Football Night from being broadcast?"
Zhang Zegang had a headache. He was furious.
However, he also knew that these people were not to blame. They had no choice but to quarrel and blame each other.
At that moment, the secretary pushed the door open and came in.
"Don't you know how to knock?" Zhang Zegang shouted angrily.
The secretary was shocked. He quickly retreated and gently closed the office door. Then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Zhang Zegang snorted.
"Director Zhang," the secretary said in fear.
"What's the matter?"
"Football Night will be broadcast in one minute," the secretary said weakly.
