Reborn on Top of Football

In the small conference room on the fourth floor of the Chinese Football Association, Wang Ai arrived at 8:55 and opened the door. Several people turned their heads across from the long table. The most recent one was Yan Shiduo, who was smiling, and a middle-aged cadre with a thin face. Beside him is a smiling old cadre, and behind them, beside him, there are obviously people who are secretaries or assistants.

On the side next to these two unknown cadres, it is also the corner farthest from Wang Ai. Zhang Jilong, who is now the head of the sports department of the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee, is fully responsible for foreign sports exchange activities during the preparations for the Beijing Olympics . Although he was rarely noticed by a series of glorious names, he was really a high weight, and he had more job than he was in the Football Association.

"Sorry, sorry." Wang Ai even apologized as soon as he entered.

The meeting is like this, it is said to be nine o'clock, but the only thing that can be stepped on is the leader, others are busy, don't care about what is busy, anyway, there is a reason to be busy, if you a crowd also step on point, it is...it can't do anything anyway, but just let People look upset.

The middle-aged cadres and the elderly cadres didn't say anything, but Yan Shiduo and Zhang Jilong frowned instead.

"Xiao Wang, are you sick?"

"Ah, how do you know? Is there a spy on my side?"

Yan Shiduo smiled and turned to two strangers: "Look at this kid, serious things can be serious, but in private, I didn't take Jilong and me as leaders. In the past, when he was free, he looked for us. So his voice is familiar to us, and today it sounds a little different."

Wang Ai nodded with a smile: "You are right, I am really a little uncomfortable, a little low fever."

Yan Shiduo nodded: "Do you not delay things?"

"It's okay. Last night I even looked for a handsome young man to chat for half a night. There is no problem in my mind, otherwise I can only take leave."

"Okay, come, let me introduce you to the two leaders. This is the deputy director of the General Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and this is the deputy director of the Research Office of the Central Liaison Department."

Wang Ai shook hands with thin and senior cadres in turn. After making a good face-to-face meeting with the four cadres, Yan Shiduo said: "Today our representatives from multiple departments gathered together to catch up with Xiao Wang and you just returned to Asia to participate in Asia. Youth tournament, catching up with the Golden Globe Award and the voting date of Mr. World Football are approaching, so I held such a meeting temporarily. The purpose is to discuss how to operate your two grand prizes this year. Just Jilong is also here. Unfamiliar with work, be a presenter today."

A few people were simple and humble, first introduced by Zhang Jilong: "In view of the great influence of football, you can fight for the Golden Globe Award and Mr. World Football. It has benefits for Chinese sports, the Beijing Olympics that is being prepared, and China’s external image. Not small. So you are playing in the front, we have been studying in the rear. Because this matter is very extensive, our football sports management center is a little uncontrollable, so the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Central Propaganda Department have provided support. After research Today, all parties have a preliminary conclusion, let you come over, just to touch you. Just now you did not come to the three of us have talked about, of course, our research conclusion is not an order, you can express your opinion. Otherwise, we will not let you solemnly let you come and tell you directly by phone. In short, today’s meeting has a stronger nature of discussion. Comrades of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, will you come first?"

Wang Ai nodded conscientiously, although the white book was still white, the attitude was correct.

The middle-aged cadres of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs smiled at Wang Ai: "Xiao Wang, I usually watch the ball, our leaders also watch the ball, you are proud of China, we are very happy, we are also willing to provide support for your goal And help."

Wang Ai lowered his head with a smile, and then listened to the thin cadre: "Because of the influence of football and your outstanding performance, the work assistance you provided to our European Division is still very effective. Thank you very much. , The German ambassador, the Spanish ambassador, and the British ambassador have all reacted and praised you in our diplomatic system. After you won the best player of the month in the Premier League in October last year, the embassy in the UK responded to this problem. We have conducted preliminary research in this year. We have been collecting your information this year, especially the evaluation of international football and European football. You were on the cover of the American version of Time magazine half a year ago, and we feel that you are fighting for The two grand prizes are maturing quickly. So many experts in our department have been convening this matter. I heard that you are coming back recently. Vice Chairman Yan discussed with us, and I came with the conclusions of our department. Now."

"Thank you, thank you leaders for your concern."

"Oh, you're welcome. Now foreign guests will ask you, we are also with Yourong. So as long as you have a chance in this matter, we will definitely try our best to help you."

Wang Ai nodded: "I understand that my honor belongs not only to myself but also to China."

Several leaders nodded, and the cadres of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs continued: "Through our follow-up studies, on the whole we think that your current momentum is very high, second only to the Italian player Cannavaro. In the evaluation of professionals, You are quite close to Cannavaro, and you are relatively close to him in terms of mass media. Through the analysis of the situation in the past few years, you may be the most powerful challenger in recent years."

Wang Ai nodded solemnly. This conclusion is almost the same as his observation.

"After the experts in our department have studied, everyone's views are more consistent. If this year is not the World Cup, then your goal is really a high probability to achieve."

Several leaders observed Wang Ai's expression and saw that he was calm and clear-eyed, and he was quite satisfied.

"In addition to the two of you, Zidane, who has received great sympathy in the World Cup, also has a chance. There are also Italian goalkeeper Buffon and French striker Henry. Of course, Ronaldinho in the first two years also has a chance. Basically That's it, the closest is the champion captain Cannavaro and you who broke a series of shooter records and led the Chinese team into the quarter-finals historically. At the professional level, if it is 100 points, then he is probably 52 , You are probably 48, at the public level, he is 54 and you 46. If there is no interference, then the final voting difference is roughly the same. Of course there may be some fluctuations, such as cultural and psychological levels, and not voting Consciously flowing towards the most likely winner, in short, the difference in voting points is even greater."
