Red Rebels

Football is the most popular sport in Argentina. Now it is the World Cup in France. In addition, Argentina beat Jamaica 5-0 in France last night. The Argentine restaurant, which is already full of World Cup atmosphere, is filled with the heat of the World Cup.

The TV in the restaurant was replaying last night's game. Batistuta scored a hat-trick and became the only player in the history of the World Cup to score a hat-trick in two consecutive World Cups.

Although I have watched the live broadcast last night, when Batty scored again, there was still a series of cheers in the restaurant, and everyone seemed to be celebrating Batty's goal on the spot.

"Argentina has always been rich in such passionate and talented superstars, Kempes, Di Stefano, Maradona, Batistuta, Caniggia, Redondo, the next one should be Messi!" Xiao Yu stared at the TV, more like muttering to himself.

Jorge, who was sitting across from him, was a little surprised. He didn't expect Xiao Yuhe to compare his son with so many talented players, especially when he knew that his son was suffering from a chronic illness.

"Jorge, here is my business card and my ID, and here is the phone number of our club. If you have any questions, you can also call the FA directly. Registered club." Xiao Yu first had to prove his identity.

Comparing your heart to your heart, no matter who it is, if someone suddenly came out and said that he was a representative of a certain club in England, that he valued his son's football talent, and wanted to sign a contract with them, everyone would doubt it, right?

Xiao Yu always likes to put the villain first and then the gentleman when doing things, so he first proves the authenticity of his identity.

Jorge took the documents and certificates handed over by Xiao Yu, looked at them carefully, and found that they were stamped with certifiable seals.

But looking at it, Jorge frowned.

"Don't worry, Jorge, although we are a club that has just been established this year, you only need to look at sports newspapers in the UK and even Europe, and you can see reports about us. Deciding to establish a self-supporting fan club, I can use my personality to guarantee my love for this club, so you don't have to worry about our sincerity in running the club at all!"

Jorge listened to Xiao Yu's words, stared at him for a while, and then continued to read.

"Are you still the owner of this club?" Jorge obviously saw the clue.

"Yes." Xiao Yu admitted frankly, and said with a smile: "But I am the negotiator of the club now, you know, we have just been established and are recruiting people, so I can only talk to you for the time being, I hope you don't mind .”

"No, no, that's our honor!" Jorge replied politely.

Xiao Yu called for a glass of water, then sat there, quietly waiting for Jorge to read all the documents and certificates carefully before continuing to speak.

"Mr. Jorge, frankly speaking, we have watched Messi play for so many years. I have to say that he is the most talented young player I have ever seen. He is not even inferior to Ronaldo."

"No, you are too much, sir!" Jorge hurriedly said politely.

Who is Ronaldo? The alien, the number one striker in the world today, is regarded as a superstar who should not appear on Earth at all, and is considered to be the great football king who is most likely to surpass Maradona and Pele.

Can the son in his own family compare with him?

No matter how confident Jorge is in Messi's football talent, he dare not compare it with Ronaldo.

"No, I'm serious. Of course, the premise is that it must be a healthy Messi. What do you think?"

Jorge's eyes darkened, obviously it was Xiao Yu's words that aroused the pain in his heart.

"I've heard about Messi and I know it too,

Newell's Old Boys only agreed to help with a small part of the medical expenses, and the River Plate team, which was very optimistic about Messi before, also gave up their plan to invite Messi, so you can only rely on yourself. "Xiao Yu said regretfully.

"Yes, that's right. For more than half a year, we have been relying on ourselves. At first our company was able to give us some help, but recently the company's performance has gradually declined and the financial pressure is great. They also refused to help. My family is even worse." Jorge never speaks out of his predicament in front of children or outsiders, he always bears it, but now that Xiao Yu has aroused the pain in his heart, he can't bear it anymore, and needs to find someone to come confide.

"I left the management position of the company, and I started working outside. At first, I worked as a small laborer for the moving company. The salary was good, but the hours were too long, and it was too far away from home. Once there was something at home, I couldn't come back. ; Later, I went to my father's Grandoli street market to move seafood, but it was only a small market, and when the economic crisis came, the boss fired me."

"The current job is to deliver beef to several Argentine restaurants, from the vegetable market to the store. It is a very simple job with good salary and relatively free. It can be regarded as my third job in the past six months. "

Speaking of the experience of the past six months, Jorge looked bitter.

In front of his children, he is a kind and kind father, and in front of his wife, he is a good and conscientious husband, but who would know that behind these identities, there is a man silently supporting the livelihood of a family.

"I understand, Jorge, really!" Xiao Yu also felt sour after hearing this.

Although he has never been a father, he knows his father. He is a man who doesn't like to joke and always has a serious face. His palms are rough and covered with calluses. His mother said that they are all made by hard work. , the whole person is very thin, but he is doing some hard physical work, because he has never read a book, so he works desperately to make money, and wants to train his son to read and write, so that he can find a good job in the future , don't have to work hard like him.

In Xiao Yu's impression, his father never vomited even a word of bitterness in front of him, and he took all the matters on his shoulders, silently, for the sake of the family, and for the sake of his son!

Jorge, like his own father, is a great father!

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but secretly made up his mind that he must find an opportunity to fly to China to see his parents.

Jorge saw a layer of fog in Xiao Yu's eyes, and felt a burst of embarrassment in his heart.

"Sorry, I made you laugh when I said so much!"

"No no no, Jorge!" Xiao Yu said three no words in one breath, "I just recalled my father, he has worked very hard all his life, for me, for the family, I just think I am very moved, you are as great as my father, the greatest group of people in the world!"

Jorge froze for a moment, then nodded very touched, as if he had met a close friend.

The two men, immersed in their own thoughts, just sat facing each other, without speaking, until the waiter in the restaurant brought the food.

Because Jorge delivered beef to the restaurant, the restaurant also specially increased the portion, and at the same time gave each person a glass of beer.

"It's still your face!" Xiao Yu said with a smile.

Jorge was obviously very hungry, he ate voraciously, and wiped out all the delicious food on the plate in one go, Xiao Yu was stunned by the way he ate.

"Okay, Jorge, I think we should talk about the business, our club wants to invite Messi to join!" Xiao Yu said after confirming that Jorge was full.

Jorge had already guessed it, he hesitated, "But Leo..."

"I know that his growth hormone secretion is too low, so he must inject biosynthetic growth hormone as a supplement every day. We all know this, and I also know that the monthly cost is about 1,000-1,500 US dollars, at least until the maintenance period. Messi until his body is formed."

Jorge nodded, he had to admit that what Xiao Yu said was correct.

The medical expenses of more than one thousand dollars a month may not seem much, but it costs 20,000 dollars a year. Messi is now 11 years old and needs to be treated for at least five or six years. The club has bought a talented player with great talent.

It is precisely because of this that whether it is Newell's Old Boys or River Plate, when they heard about Messi's situation, they immediately retreated.

But Xiao Yu is obviously different from all the football players Jorge has come into contact with before. He came from time travel. He knows the value of Messi. If he can exchange a few hundred thousand for a future superstar, that is definitely a bargain.

"Jorge, our club is willing to cover all of Messi's medical expenses. In addition, we invite your whole family to move to Manchester. Our club can provide you and your wife with a job so that you can support your family."

Jorge was obviously frightened by Xiao Yu's words, such treatment must be too good.

"Of course, our club is not free. We are optimistic about Messi's football talent. We hope he can play for our team. This cannot be measured by money at all, can it?"

Jorge felt a little dizzy from being hit by a pie falling from the sky. He couldn't believe that Xiao Yu would bring him such a big surprise. He moved to England, got a job, and even solved the most difficult medical expenses. Everything is amazing.

"Of course, I know, just saying that doesn't make you agree, but you can go home and think about it, or you can call to consult the relevant departments in the UK, and then call me, I will be in Rome Sario awaits news from you."

After speaking, Xiao Yu handed over his contact number and hotel address, stood up, went to the counter to check out, and left the Argentinian restaurant.

And until he left, Jorge was still staring at the business card and address bar on the desktop in a daze.

PS: When I saw some interviews and reports about Messi when he was young, I was really moved, but it was about his father. I think Messi may be a great player, but his father is more great!
