Features: This book is his autobiographical work, primarily telling the story of his life journey since 2001. Through the eyes of an ordinary sports commentator, the author holistically examines and judges Chinese football and world football, while also showcasing various aspects of major international sports events. The content involves the events leading up to and behind China's 10-team match against Qatar in the 2002 World Cup, the lesser-known stories of China's two foreign head coaches, Mircea Lucescu and Li Jie, and personal anecdotes and highlights of the author's interactions with many public figures such as Bai Yansong, Wang Xiaoya, and Zhang Liying. — When a person, after youthful arrogance, has experienced the world, they either become a shrewd tactician or a man who fights. My friend Huang Jianxiang chose the latter. This suggests that his previous strengths will be further honed, while his flaws will linger. He aims to be his authentic self, not someone else's obedient imitation. — When a well-known sports commentator shouts loudly in the next room, "I really admire Zhang Liying," it proves he has more than just a job—he has a life, a life that keeps up with the times. And we know that those without a life cannot work well. — When a person who expresses themselves through voice publishes a new book every four or five years, it shows they are not just a "loudspeaker" trying to make a name for themselves; rather, they have their own independent thoughts, memories, and judgments. Whether their writing pleases the masses or not. — The famous sports journalist Li Chengpeng truly Chinese football fans have no reason not to admire Huang Jianxiang. — A true football lover, a true football expert, a true person who knows how to commentate, and more importantly, a true person who dares to speak out and stand up for what is right without acting like a coward. If you don't expect to hear such a person commentate games for you, then who else can you expect to listen to? In the field of football TV commentating and analysis, Huang Jianxiang has indeed become indispensable. The scope and extent to which a person is indispensable reflect their own value. Six years later, Huang Jianxiang has published another new book. Even though I thought I already knew him quite well, when reading the manuscript, I still discovered so many emotions and stories I had never known, so many joys and sorrows I had never experienced, that it took me three whole hours to read it through in one sitting, still not wanting it to end.
