The waves crashed on the shore, and the momentum was monstrous, as if they wanted to drown everything in the world; The cold wind is biting, whistling like a knife, and I hate to make the world a mermaid.

Yang Cheng didn't expect the temperature in California to drop suddenly, especially in the afternoon of this deep winter, when the sun was slanting westward, adding a bit of coldness.

Wearing an Adidas velvet hat and hands tucked into their arms, like many people, they stood at the gate of a kindergarten in Malibu that clings to the shoreline, waiting for the opening to open.

They are all a group of parents who are ready to come to the kindergarten to pick up their children, waiting outside a red codelock door.

The yard of the kindergarten is not visible from here, in order to avoid someone peeping, they put the yard at the back of the office building, there is no security, only a combination lock door, which is directly connected to the alarm, the police station is less than 50 meters away, who has so much courage?

The password is only known to parents, so they are waiting outside, when the time comes, the timing will be automatically opened, as long as you enter the password you can enter, and the whole process is monitored by the computer monitoring above, very strict.

This is the best kindergarten in Malibu and where Charles went to school.

Yang Cheng is fulfilling a duty as a father, so he took a plane from Madrid to California last night just to pick him up for the holidays, and from today, the kindergarten will enter the winter break.

"Pick up the kids?" Someone next to him stared at Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng nodded, wearing a velvet hat that covered the part above the eyes, and he specially wore a pair of gold-rimmed eyes, which had no degree, and should not be very recognizable, but he still showed a kind smile.

"I've never seen you before!" This middle-aged man who should be about the same age as Yang Cheng said with a smile.

"I'm all abroad!" Yang Cheng replied.

"Oh!" The man said, but after a moment of silence, he added, "I'm here to pick up my daughter Jenny, what about you?" ”

"My son!" Yang Cheng replied. When he said this, there was such a touch in his heart, a very ordinary and simple sentence, but it brought him an inexplicable touch, "Charles! ”

"Charles?" The man was stunned.

Yang Cheng thought he knew, nodded and said, "Yes, Charles?" Poplar! ”

The man immediately grinned, a look of surprise. His eyes widened, "Are you ......" looked around at the other parents who were frightened by his loud shouting, he immediately covered his mouth and looked like a thief, "Mr. Yang Cheng?" ”

"Yes!" Yang Cheng smiled bitterly, but he was still recognized.

"I'm your fan. God, I adore you very, very much! The middle-aged American man in his thirties looked excited, dancing and speechless, "I knew my daughter was in the same kindergarten as your son, but I never had the opportunity to meet you, I am so happy, you played Barcelona not long ago, it was amazing!" ”

This guy really looks like a fan. And he is a very die-hard fan, gushing from the Century Derby to the Club World Cup, from Chemnitz to Real Madrid, he looks like a treasure.

"You've got to sign me!" He scrambled to find a pen and a notepad from his pocket.

Yang Cheng took it with a smile, and Long Feifeng wrote his Chinese signature on it, which was already his iconic signature.

At this moment, the code lock door of the kindergarten beeped and opened, and all the parents walked over. One by one, they scrambled to press the password to get in. Inside, there is a teacher watching.

The kindergarten is neatly laid out and there are a lot of toys. The classroom looks more like a small toy store, with a lot of variety.

After Yang Cheng walked in, he followed his American fans to Charles's class upstairs, and saw that many children were ready to go downstairs to the backyard, because some children lived far away, or their parents were not available to pick them up, so they had to go to the school bus. …,

"That's my daughter!" The American fan pointed to a little girl in front of him and said.

Coincidentally, there was a little boy standing next to the little girl, holding the little girl's hand, talking about something, wasn't it Charles?

"Hey, boy!" Yang Cheng shouted with a smile, how did he think this kid's actions looked like he was picking up girls?

Charles heard this familiar shout, turned his head sideways, and saw Yang Cheng looking at him in the corridor with a smile, first taken aback, and then shouted in surprise, "Dad!" And then the whole person pounced directly.

"Haha, stinky boy!" Yang Cheng hugged Charles, this kid was quite heavy, and he couldn't hold it anymore.

As soon as this kid was hugged by Yang Cheng, his hands grabbed his neck tightly, making the father and daughter on the side stunned, feeling that their father and son relationship was really speechless.

"Your classmates are watching you, coquettish!" Yang Cheng gently patted Charles's buttocks.

This kid seemed to realize the key shame, and immediately broke free from Yang Cheng's body, his small eyes were red, but he raised his head and pretended to be strong, "Aren't you very busy?" Why are you free to come here to me? ”

Yang Cheng looked at this kid's posture and couldn't help laughing, no wonder his mother said that this kid will definitely be a little adult in the future, "I'm here to pick you up from school, what's the matter?" Dislike? ”

"Not either!" Charles happily grabbed Yang Cheng's hand, "By the way, I'll introduce you to my girlfriend!" ”

As soon as he said this, the little girl in the distance blushed and hid behind his father, who was a fan of Yang Cheng.

The two little ghosts did this, which made Yang Cheng and his American fans laugh, thinking that the children nowadays are so interesting, and they started to fall in love when they were young, do they know what it means to be in love?

"Little ghost, how many girlfriends have you had?" Yang Cheng and his son walked out of the kindergarten and were about to pick up the car, but they were holding hands.

Charles frowned and looked at Yang Cheng, as if he didn't want to say much, but hesitated for a moment, "Jenny is the third!" ”

"Wow!" Yang Cheng didn't expect it, "What about the first two?" ”

"I can't get along, it's divided!" Charles said.

Yang Cheng couldn't cry or laugh, "What's the matter?" Tell me about it! ”

"One likes to eat sugar, and my mother said that it is not good to eat sugar all the time, and in the future the teeth will be black and ugly!" Charles rightly said, "The other one is getting fatter, I don't like fat people, and she wants to me all day long!" The kid's pouting look was cute.

Yang Cheng smiled and almost didn't lose his breath. Charlize? Theron often said that this kid does things in a way that is not quite the same as ordinary children, and he is very smart, especially in some daily life things.

For example, when he called back to Yang Cheng's parents, he would ask his grandmother if he was doing well, and remember to take medicine on time. I will also let my grandfather do less farm work, rest more, and come to the United States to find him or something when I have time, I heard that he is now also starting to help his grandmother with housework, this kid has a sweet mouth and can do things, which is very annoying.

But it's still a bit of a problem. Don't look at him as a strong old man, he actually loves to be coquettish, and he likes to talk back.

"Let's go back to China tonight and stay for two days, how about it?" Yang Cheng asked.

His schedule during the winter break was very tight, and he had little time left, and two days was the limit.

"You call the shots, you're my dad anyway!" Charles choked.

Yang Cheng shook his head, just before he bought it for Charlize? In front of Theron's Porsche Cayenne. Directly took the little ghost into the car, the two fathers and sons went home directly, packed some bags, and then flew back to China directly on the same day.

Every time he came back, Yang Cheng had to bring a lot of things home, such as supplements or something that was not available in China. …,

My mother is not in good health and has high blood pressure, and my father has been a little thin recently, so he is also quite worried. So he wasn't idle when he came back. I took my parents to the hospital for a most detailed examination.

Originally, they still refused to go, but Charles agreed with the help of persuasion.

This pass is busy. Two days passed.

Yang Cheng also packed his things and flew directly to Zurich with Charles.

…………

…………

"Dad, will there be a lot of people in a minute?" On the bus to the Zurich Opera House, Charles looked a little nervous.

This kid just leaned on the window of the car and looked around, in fact, he was not afraid of everything here, he was just not used to appearing in front of so many people, but it was just an awards party, nothing remarkable.

"Are you afraid?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.

Charles pouted, as if to say, who is afraid? Anyway, he has been used to being photographed since he was a child, who made his father Yang Cheng and his mother Charlize? What about Theron?

But all along, Yang Cheng and Charlize? Theron didn't even deliberately let him out, but he didn't shy away from it either, and went with the flow.

The two fathers and sons are dressed very formally today, and they are wearing father-son suits, both of them are casual suits and white shirts, the two fathers and sons look very decent, Yang Cheng is as casual as ever, Charles's handsome appearance is also very funny, they got out of the car, and immediately received the uproar and attention of countless reporters at the scene.

"Naturally, it's all acquaintances when you go in anyway!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

Charles took his hand, and the two walked slowly forward, through the red carpet welcomed by the media, and entered the Zurich Opera House, and as soon as they entered, they immediately attracted the attention of the audience.

"Haha, Charles!" Beckenbauer, who was still chatting, immediately walked over as soon as he saw Yang Cheng and his son, and picked up Charles, but after just a while, he felt heavy and immediately put it down.

"Uncle Franz!" Charles greeted politely.

"Good!" Beckenbauer touched Charles's face with a smile, which is what many acquaintances will do when they see Charles, and turned to Yang Cheng and smiled: "I guess you are going to be a big winner tonight!" ”

Yang Cheng smiled, as early as two days ago, the French football magazine announced the top three European footballers, namely Kaka, Xiao Xiao Luo and Messi, Kaka and Xiao Xiao Luo The competition between the two is very fierce, Messi fell behind by a large margin, and could not form enough threat to the two, and finally the Brazilian narrowly won a game.

This is also in line with Yang Cheng's previous speculation, because after Kaka's transformation, he is indeed better than Xiao Xiaoluo in terms of team role, but the Portuguese is now also playing a pivotal role, and he tries to strike a balance between teamwork and individual play.

And there's no doubt that Ronaldo is Europe's top scorer, and thanks to platforms like Real Madrid, his goal tally is still rising.

"Are you going to South Africa later?" Beckenbauer asked.

Yang Cheng nodded, he was a special guest at the draw ceremony for the World Cup in South Africa, he had promised before, but he couldn't push it, and Beckenbauer, as the president of UEFA and the person in charge of the last World Cup in Germany, was definitely among the invitees, so the two made an appointment to go to Cape Town together.

Under the leadership of the staff, Yang Cheng walked into the venue with Charles. More and more people greeted him, and some familiar ones even came over and pinched Charles, and the kid's reluctant pouting expression was very funny.

"Hello, European Footballer!" Seeing Kaka coming over, Yang Cheng greeted him with a smile.

With his trademark bright smile, Kaka showed a mouthful of white teeth, "Don't tease me, boss!" ”

"Congratulations!" Yang Cheng stretched out his hand. ..., Kaka immediately gripped it. Nodding heavily, "Thank you, Chief!" ”

"Keep up the good work, Cristiano!" Yang Cheng looked at Xiao Xiaoluo, who was teasing Charles.

The Portuguese raised an eyebrow and said everything, in fact he knew it in his heart. With Real Madrid's strength and status today, as long as he can play better on the basis of teamwork, it is only a matter of time before he wins the award.

After Yang Cheng greeted everyone, he went directly to the special area where Real Madrid is located and sat down, including Florentino, Piri and other Real Madrid management, Casillas, Raul, Ramos, Thiago? Silva and other Real Madrid players also participated in this grand event, and Florentino even paid out of his own pocket to come to Switzerland.

At the beginning of the party, Blatter took the lead in giving a speech. It is nothing more than a summary of FIFA's work over the past year and what to expect for the year ahead, the most important of which is that FIFA will subsidize the clubs of professional players who participate in the World Cup.

This is actually a concession made by FIFA under the coercion of UEFA and the big teams, and the subsidy is expected to cost more than 40 million euros, as the subsidy is 1,600 euros per day for each international player.

Blatter took the opportunity to confirm the subsidy, as UEFA had already given the club a subsidy in Euro 2008 and FIFA could not afford to rely on the money. They said it would be after the World Cup. The subsidy is given to the Football Association of the host country and then to the club.

FIFA certainly doesn't give subsidies unconditionally. Blatter implicitly mentioned that he hopes that all clubs will withdraw the legal action against FIFA for injuries and illnesses caused by their players' participation in national team matches, and instead apply for compensation against FIFA, fully implementing the principle of internal resolution of football affairs, rather than resorting to law.

Under Beckenbauer, European football is now monolithic, and although the G14 has been disbanded, it has been replaced by a much larger, more rigorous club league, which makes FIFA very clear in their hearts that they must make concessions in their interests, otherwise they will sooner or later be sued by these shrewd businessmen for bankruptcy.

The earliest award was the most weightless football development award, given to the Chinese Football Association, before Yang Cheng and the chairman of the Chinese Football Association had a short meeting, but only a few polite words, after all, Yang Cheng's football school to be carried out in China, it is inevitable to deal with them, so it is still perfunctory.

The Fair Play Award was later awarded to the late Bobby? Sir Robson, everyone in the audience gave a standing ovation.

The Puskas Prize is a new award created this year, the Goal of the Season, which goes to Real Madrid's Cristiano? Ronaldo, this is a bit of a consolation prize.

In the team of the year announced later, the goalkeeper was Casillas; Patrice Evra, Thiago? Silva, John Terry and McConn form the backline; The three players in midfield are David? Silva, Kaka and Xavi; The three strikers are Ronaldo, Villa and Messi.

Real Madrid occupy a total of seven places in the list of 11 men, which can be said to be in the limelight for a while, which also depends on Real Madrid's outstanding performance in the past season, Barcelona has been shortlisted for two places, Chelsea and Manchester United in the Premier League have one place each, and Serie A and Bundesliga have not.

It is not difficult to see the distribution of European football today from this best team, that is, La Liga is not only a monopoly of La Liga, but even has superior strength in the entire European football, and the only teams that can compete with La Liga are the top three in the Premier League, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool, Arsenal has been hollowed out of the corner, and even Liverpool is not as strong as in previous years, and it is beginning to go downhill. ..., the 11 winning players walked up to the podium to receive their medals and gave their acceptance speeches at the same time.

Then it was announced that Miss World Football, Brazilian women's footballer Juan Mata won the award, which is her fourth consecutive award, and Queen Rania of Jordan won the FIFA President's Award.

In the end, Beckenbauer walked on the award stage, and everyone knew that the next thing to be presented would be the finale, World Footballer of the Year, and in fact, from the previous many heavyweight awards, one thing is reflected, that is, although Kaka and Xiao Xiaoluo are on the same team, the two did not thin out the votes because of this.

Although Messi has performed well at Barcelona, it is difficult for him to be recognized, because Barcelona have not achieved even a little weight in the past year, and he himself has not had any impressive games, on the contrary, he has been in a slump against Real Madrid.

In this case, the World Footballer of the Year turned into a Real Madrid civil war between Kaka and Ronaldo, and in the end, when Beckenbauer took out the list from the open envelope and announced the winners, everyone was only emotional, not surprised.

Kaka, without a doubt, got the World Footballer of the Year!

This is the second time that the Brazilian midfielder has won this honor, and it is also the second time that he has won the two major awards of European Footballer of the Year and World Footballer of the Year, which touched the Brazilian and kept thanking Yang Cheng in his speech.

Judging from the scores released later, Kaka is 773 points, Xiao Xiaoluo is 652 points, Messi is only 196 points, and even Villa, which ranks fourth, has 190 points, almost squeezing Messi out of the top three, but everyone knows that it is unlikely that a club will occupy the top three.

David? Silva is ranked 5th with 134 points, so there are 4 Real Madrid players in the top 5 of the World Footballer of the Year, which shows that Real Madrid has been strong and excellent in the past year.

Although Yang Cheng didn't get any awards and titles, he almost had his shadow in every award, so he didn't care about this.

But just as he ended his trip to Zurich and arrived in South Africa, something suddenly happened.
