In an in-depth interview with Phoenix.com, soccer superstar Wu Lei faces the camera and talks about his journey to the Chinese Super League. Phoenix sports reporter curiously asked: "In the past two years, do you feel extraordinarily lucky? In a spectator-less environment, domestic teammates are under great pressure, while you seem to be able to maintain your work routine." Wu Lei pondered for a moment and replied, "I have to admit, it sounds quite beautiful. But the truth is probably more complicated. They may envy my state, while in reality, I have my share of envy. This kind of closed life is really unbearable, I understand the hardship of the national team training, and the feeling is really hard to bear. The outside world may think that I am living like a fish out of water, but in fact, I also envy them to be in the country, after all, my family is here, and I can't even go home during the epidemic." The reporter then asked, "So, have you been watching the Chinese Super League during this time?" Wu Lei frankly said, "Occasionally I watch it, but not much. I have to say, every time I see the broadcast, I don't really want to watch it. The feeling is like playing wild soccer, just anywhere, and there's no longer any tension or excitement that the game should have."
