Miami's trip to Hong Kong is definitely very bad for Chinese fans, because Messi's refusal to play, coupled with the cold face of the whole game, and the refusal to speak after the game, completely ignore the feelings of the fans, which also makes the fans' favorability towards Messi drop significantly, especially in Hong Kong, who refused to play, and came off the bench in Japan, which made many fans see that Messi treats fans differently.
Because of his refusal to play in Hong Kong, Messi has caused a lot of controversy, as a world football superstar, Messi chose Japan to play as a substitute, it is impossible not to know such consequences, because the team around him will definitely conduct relevant analysis, but Messi still chooses to play in Japan, which is undoubtedly a lack of attention to Chinese fans, or even disrespect, so it has triggered a series of repercussions, which is also what Messi should bear.
Messi to do such a thing, he will be greatly restricted in the Chinese market in the future, it is reported that in March Argentina Hangzhou exhibition match has been officially canceled, all thanks to Messi, so far, as a party, Messi did not make any apology, the only apology is "Sichuan Messi" issued, such behavior is undoubtedly unforgivable, for Messi's behavior, Huo Qigang also expressed his position one after another, hoping that Messi and Miami International will apologize.
Because of the huge pressure, the organizer has refunded and refunded half of the cost to the fans who bought the tickets, in order to calm the anger of the fans, but the fans did not buy it, and many fans expressed their positions on the Internet, saying that they would boycott Messi in the future, as Messi's boss, why didn't Beckham speak up for Messi? This may be a question that many fans are very puzzled about.
In this trip to Hong Kong, Beckham is undoubtedly the most enthusiastic person in Miermi International, frequent interaction on the spot, after the end of the trip to Hong Kong, Beckham did not go to Japan with the team, but went to Qatar, from this point of view, Beckham attaches more importance to the Chinese market than Messi. After Beckham returned to China, when the New Year arrived, Beckham also used the New Year's happiness to greet Chinese fans, from all kinds of points, Beckham attaches great importance to the Chinese market, and Beckham does not want to lose the Chinese market, so it is reasonable for him not to speak for Messi.
After this incident, Messi's influence in the Chinese market will be reduced a lot, which will also reduce his income a lot, but Messi doesn't seem to care about it, otherwise he wouldn't have apologized.
