Although he now has to serve at the Tianyu Club, Wu Hao has already promised him that his time at Tianyu Club would not be too long. Furthermore, Wu Hao also promised that in the years following his departure, he would ensure that he would not be troubled by injuries during his time in Europe. This is an extraordinary commitment for any player.
Football is inherently a dangerous and intense sport, and injuries during matches are always a possibility.
For instance, the legendary Ronaldo is a prime example. Throughout his career, he spent nearly half of his time recovering from injuries.
One can imagine that if Ronaldo had not spent so much time recovering from injuries, his achievements would have been even greater than they are now.
Therefore, the fact that Wu Hao promises to ensure that a player will not be troubled by injuries during a few years of their career is hard to believe, unless Kaka had personally experienced taking ‘gene-enhancing drugs’. Even if others were to speak of it in the most extravagant terms, it would still be difficult for him to believe.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. On the day of the Tianyu Stadium’s opening, the weather in Shuangqing City was relatively clear. Although it was not a perfect sunny day, at least it was not raining. In this season of increasing rainfall, the weather was considered a blessing from the heavens.
Of course, even if it had rained, it would not have affected the matches held at Tianyu Stadium, as the entire stadium’s roof is completely retractable.
The only impact of rainy weather would be on the spectators coming from various places to watch the match, as rain severely affects transportation and roads.
Originally, Tianyu Stadium is located in a busy commercial district in the city center. On match days, there would inevitably be an even larger crowd of people and vehicles in the nearby area, which would be even more severe if it rained.
The reason for designing so many parking spaces on the underground third floor of Tianyu Stadium, and the equivalent of two floors of plaza space, is to accommodate the large number of cars gathering around the stadium. The two floors of plaza that surround the stadium on the first and second levels are also intended to provide some buffer for the large flow of people.
After all, when more than 80,000 people gather in one place, without a sufficiently large area, it would definitely cause serious congestion. There has been a tragic incident in football history caused by severe congestion in a stadium that resulted in casualties.
Therefore, when SmartBrain initially designed all the construction blueprints for Tianyu Stadium, they considered the surrounding traffic and crowd flow to ensure that once the stadium was built, it could easily accommodate over 80,000 people, or even over 100,000, in and around the stadium.
On the day of the opening ceremony, Wu Hao and his parents arrived at the site. However, he was only there to have a look and would not participate in the opening ceremony. All the opening activities would be handled by the club’s officials, the head coach, as well as leaders from the sports bureau and the city.
“Bro, this stadium is really huge! And every part of it exudes a strong sense of technology,” Wu Xiaoxiao exclaimed with amazement since entering the stadium. In fact, she was not alone; almost everyone feels the same way when visiting the stadium for the first time.
Since Tianyu Stadium is known for being smart and state-of-the-art, it naturally has its unique features. For example, the omnipresent surveillance cameras can record and analyze everything happening in every corner of the stadium in real time. If there is congestion or a fight, the security personnel patrolling the stadium can quickly know about it through their walkie-talkies and handle it promptly.
All the signage and advertising inside the stadium have abandoned traditional advertising methods and instead use high-definition screens, coordinated and released by the stadium’s central control system.
Moreover, every spectator entering the stadium is guided by clear signage and voice prompts from the moment they walk in, directing them to various ticket areas and seats.
After sitting down, each seat has a display screen on its back and front showing the seat number. The display screen in front of the seat only shows information and cannot be operated.
In contrast, the screen on the back of each seat is a 6-inch touch screen. Each spectator can use this screen to check various public information about the stadium, details about the teams playing, and even call for assistance from stadium staff if needed.
Besides the use of high-definition screens for advertising and signage inside the stadium, advanced smart facilities are also scattered throughout the exterior of the stadium.
The entire stadium’s outer shell can change colors and project audiovisual images using a virtual projection technology completed by dozens of devices installed on the stadium’s roof.
In the evening, when the stadium’s exterior lights and projections are turned on, it creates a breathtakingly beautiful view. It’s no exaggeration to say that even if the stadium is not hosting a match, visitors to the stadium and its surrounding areas will undoubtedly enjoy the spectacle.
The stadium is located near a commercial center, and it has its own sports merchandise stores, various restaurants, and football-themed bars.
Additionally, the first and second floors of the stadium are large, open plazas, indicating that the number of citizens coming to visit and explore each evening will certainly be substantial.
The pitch inside the stadium is on the second floor. Not only does it feature an advanced heating and irrigation system, but the central circular part of the pitch also has a lift function.
This function is designed to provide a quick stage for use during opening ceremonies or concerts. With this liftable circular stage, there is no need to build any temporary stage structures in the stadium for events like concerts and opening ceremonies.
If a stage must be built, the stadium also has a specialized, deployable vehicle that can be expanded into a designed stage when driven into a designated position within the stadium.
Furthermore, the stadium’s internal projection and 3D surround effects can perfectly present various event effects. For instance, today’s opening ceremony will showcase these features of the stadium.
