Reborn on Top of Football

"Hello, Consul High."

A low-profile Volkswagen parked in front of the Chinese Consulate General in Milan, Wang Ai got out of the car and smiled.

"Hello, Dr. Wang, it really looks like a teenager!"

Consul General Gao, like an old man in the countryside, stretched out his hand with a smile: "I heard that you are coming, but our little consulate general is flourishing."

"Well, do n’t dare to be dared to be, I am an ordinary citizen of China. I still expect you to save your life when something happens, but dare not get bigger." Wang Ai waved his hands and smiled.

The Consulate General of Milan is really small, like a country house, but your Wang Ai's villa is not big enough to carry the national flag! It doesn't count even if you hang up. No one will ask you for a visa ... If someone asks you for it, you will be in trouble.

"No rest?"

"No, I'm not tired, I always come by car."

Driving Sun Yi rolled his eyes, you are not tired, I am tired! Hundreds of kilometers of steering wheel came down.

The Consul General smiled: "Okay, let's go straight."

Consul Gao brought an interpreter and secretary, and the group went to a nearby car rental agency to return the vehicle brought by Wang Ai and re-rented a six-seat station wagon. 140 kilometers from Milan to Turin, more than two hours slowly.

Originally, Wang Ai didn't want to alarm Chinese institutions abroad. Everything happened all day and night. Wang Ai received a prize without much trouble, and it was not related to the diplomacy of the two countries. After the award, leave. I did not expect that the Chinese embassy in Italy had been staring at this matter for a long time, so after the awarding date was fixed, Wang Ai was called first.

Wang Ai still ignores the gold content of his "European golden boy". Even if he did not win the golden boy, he can be proudly named "one of the best young players in the world". Italy is a football kingdom. In this country, the importance of football is far higher than the importance of football in China. It can even be said that football is the capital that Italy can brag about.

Therefore, the "European Golden Boy Award" organized by the Italian media "Turin Sports News" is highly valued in Europe and Italy. And Wang Ai's Chinese identity determines that this is also an opportunity for China to expand its diplomatic work in Italy.

China has just joined the WTO, and the fierce tactics of Made in China are still undercover, so to make use of every opportunity to carry out diplomatic work in the country is to make more friends.

So for Wang Ai's trip to Italy, the Chinese Foreign Affairs Office in Italy really took it as a big deal, or else he would not have to entrust Consul General Gao of the Consulate General in Milan to come forward in person.

A group of people agreed on the car to receive the speech at night. Although Turin did not say that Wang Ai would be able to take the golden boy, it had been hinted inside and outside the word, not to mention the last announcement of the ranking a month ago. King Abby's second-place Casillas was a long lead.

The speech was prepared in advance by the Consulate General of Milan, but they have heard from their superiors long ago that Dr. Wang is not a good boy, so he has to discuss with Wang Ai. Because this is not a national task, if Wang Ai won the prize as a member of the national team, then you have to listen to what you say and say, even if there is negotiation, but the right to speak is different. However, Wang Ai won the prize as a young player in Tubingen this time, or as a professional player. So the consuls are highly courteous, and the initiative is still in Wang Ai's hands.

The scale here is subtle.

If it is an ordinary professional player, Chinese agencies abroad will take the national justice to take a shot, it is not the country but also the country, but you ca n’t be sure when you meet Wang Aike, this little guy is not well known.

In the car, Wang Ai read it carefully under the guidance of the translator, and then took out his pen decisively to delete two-thirds. What did he mean by "friendly friendship", "I'm not very comprehensive", "Everyone is very strong", ah, etc., all deleted, took out a pen to draft a speech.

While writing Wang Ai, I exchanged my views with the two. One do n’t go too high. Let ’s go together. What friends can you make to see your skills? I will introduce you if it is convenient. Pure football activities, if the pull is too high, no one loves to listen.

Will the skin be attached without hair? No one likes to talk, so you can't achieve any effect.

The other is that Wang Ai doesn't want to be humble, so he has to go straight to Westerners. In case you get the Golden Boy, you say "I don't think I'm good enough", isn't that a blow to the host's face? Do you think you should n’t take it?

That's all right, watch the media tomorrow! I wo n’t give you any first prize.

Therefore, Wang Ai's attitude is: You have given me a prize, then I will stand here and tell the world: Lao Tzu is the best in the world! I think so too!

More than two hours later, a group of five people rushed to Turin and found the hotel they had contracted at the address provided by the other party.

Wang Ai just got out of the car, and before he looked around, there was a white light in front of him, and then there was a buzz in his ears.

It turned out that Italian journalists and many European journalists have been waiting for a long time.

"Dr. Wang, can you get the Golden Boy Award?"

"Dr. Wang, when did you come to Italy to develop?"

"Dr. Wang, is there anything you want to say to the people of the motherland?"

Wang Ai turned around in surprise, a Chinese journalist. Wang Ai smiled: "Let's talk after receiving the award."

After dealing with reporters hastily, Wang Ai entered the hotel lobby and was led by the staff to the venue.

In this meeting, half an hour is left from the start of the awards. Wang Ai is not yet familiar with Italian football, so he has not talked with people everywhere. Some players, coaches and reporters came to Wang Ai and said something.

At 18 o’clock in the evening, the editor-in-chief of the "Turin Sports News" stepped onto the podium and said to the guests: "This year, many young and outstanding football players have appeared in European countries. They have excellent skills, important status and are widely known. Tomorrow's star of great concern. We have launched this award after long-term discussions to encourage outstanding young athletes from all countries to perform better on the playing field and promote the development of youth football. After more than 30 years We voted for three of the most outstanding young players of the season from dozens of candidates. They are Wang Ai from the Tubingen youth team in Germany and Igor from Real Madrid in Spain. · Casillas, Rafael van der Vaart from Ajax of the Netherlands. After the final points statistics, we now announce the final ranking. "
