The Harbin China website also announces a competition in which fans will stand a chance to meet footballing legend Ruud Gullit, the ambassador for Harbin’s 2010 FIFA World Cup campaign. “I love soccer and beer. It is the perfect combination and part of my life. When I played soccer, I always toasted the coolest beer with my team to celebrate our victory,” said Gullit.
