In the world of football, every time a star travels around the world, there is a lot of interest from fans.
However, Argentine legend Lionel Messi arrived in Hong Kong while touring Asia, a move that caused a huge stir and not only frustrated the organizers, but also sparked a series of fierce responses from fans to **.
These days, this misunderstanding, apathy, and cultural divide has been a hot topic in world football.
At the recent Asian Championships, Japan's first appearance was the world's top star Messi, whose superb skills and charm, and a wonderful duel like a "sports grand view garden", made Japanese fans fall in love with it.
On the way to Hong Kong, China, the story takes an unexpected turn.
The Hong Kong SAR authorities have high expectations for Messi's visit, and in order to better enhance Hong Kong's international image, the Hong Kong SAR authorities have held a grand welcome party in the most sincere way.
Therefore, the whole city is boiling, all the fans are looking forward to this day, and the organizers are also full of preparations.
Messi's failure to arrive in Hong Kong for the long-awaited tournament came as a surprise to everyone and raised doubts about the organisers' job of getting it right.
Messi's absence from the tournament due to physical reasons has raised huge questions about his true purpose and professionalism compared to the energy and bravery he has shown in Japan so far.
What is even more worrying is that Messi's absence is interpreted as indifference and lack of respect for Hong Kong's chief executive and most of his supporters.
Such a move not only hurts the feelings of the people of Hong Kong, but also makes people feel that they are insulting the rights of the organizers of these events.
This accident has had a great impact on the people of Hong Kong, and at the same time, it has also raised a case for the world sports community, making the world sports community rethink how to balance economic interests and fan expectations.
The reaction that followed was like a stone thrown into a stone. The Hong Kong authorities were extremely unhappy and called on Messi in public to apologize for what he had done, and dealt with him harshly.
The Chinese Football Association also temporarily suspended some cooperation plans with Argentine football clubs after the incident to demonstrate the Chinese Football Association's firm will to defend national honor and local interests.
In addition,"**"The drama was also staged in the society, and the blocking of Messi's Chinese social account made the situation even more serious.
To think about this topic, the first thing to solve is to understand the customs and habits between different ethnic groups.
As a member of society, athletes should treat their country correctly when facing other countries, not only showing respect for themselves, but also localizing themselves, which is something that every superstar should think about seriously.
Maybe Messi has no intention of provoking, but for Hong Kong's actions, there is obviously a lack of due respect and understanding, and for other athletes, it is a warning: no matter in **, we must give due respect to the local culture and people's feelings.
It is said that he promised to play at firstAs a result, it was "uncomfortable" absent at a critical momentAnd justifiably say that he is injured, uh, isn't that nonsense? If you do get injured, will you have surgery the night before and be able to play the next morning?
I'm not here to spray people, thoughJust a little confused,We Chinese fans haven't offended him, right? Why did he dislike him so much? But we're not vegetarians, although we don't value "face" very much, but we can't let people be monkeysRight?
Let's talk about this big starI heard that his favorite place is not China, but Japan! This is the rhythm of carving up the Chinese market! But he played too hard and offended all the Chinese fans, and now our market will no longer welcome him.
If it were me, I might have taken a photo with the fans with a smile and shook hands with the Hong Kong Chief Executive. But, we're not starsThere aren't that many fans eitherI can only quietly complain here.
Hey,What do you think? Isn't it time to teach the big star a lesson? Or just forget it and be a generous fan? I'll show my face first, and you can tell me what you think!
Overall, Messi's performance in Hong Kong provoked a deep cultural clash and made us reflect on the social and ethical responsibilities of sports celebrities in their international interactions.
For Messi himself, the accident was certainly an unpleasant experience, but it was also a good time for reflection and development.
In the same way, those of us who love rugby, while enjoying the passion of the sport, should not forget the invisible connection--- respect and understanding that are linked to each other--- to maintain peace in the world, promote cultural exchange and increase understanding.
