Chapter 49: Interview (End) of the Most Unique European Footballer of the Year

Seeing that Lao Lei's attention was on the Golden Globe trophy, Ernaux smiled knowingly, his eyes were full of relief, and he didn't feel that Lao Lei was rude. Because of this kind of picture, he has seen it many times in his career as editor-in-chief of "French Football", and he has seen such a look on superstars such as Ronaldo, Owen and Zidane, and he has long been surprised. Moreover, such a performance is an affirmation of his work in promoting the Golden Globes, and for this old man, this is the best reward.

After a while, Lao Lei came back to his senses, looked at Ernaux with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. It's not a polite gesture to leave someone else's old man hanging out for so long. When Lao Lei apologized, it was Ernaux himself who was very tolerant and generous, and instead joked to Lao Lei: "Hehe, it doesn't matter. Of course, I know that the trophy is much more attractive than my bad old man. The gentle and drizzle-like elegance made Lao Lei feel good in his heart, and the two soon talked happily.

Looking at the young old Lei in front of him, although he looked ordinary, but he had an arrogant temperament in his gestures, Ernaux couldn't help but nod appreciatively in his heart. Originally, he thought that Lao Lei would be a thorn in the thorn that was difficult to touch, but judging from the conversation in the past few minutes, he felt that the young player in front of him was not as demonized as the outside world legend. "Young man, it's been a long time since I've seen such a young winner, and in you I see Ronaldo's shadow. You should be proud of what you have achieved in the past year, it is unbeatable! "After the pleasantries. Ernaux, who sat down, first praised Lao Lei.

was appreciated by an old man who had such influence in the football world, saying that Lao Lei was unhappy in his heart. That's fake. For Ernaux's words, though. Lao Lei was still a little dissatisfied, and he said very confidently: "If I had been born 20 years earlier, you would have said this to Ronaldo." He held his head high, his chest straight, his upper body stood as upright as bamboo, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a clear arc of confidence, with the spirit of a young man.

Lao Lei's attitude made Ernaux stunned. This is neither humble nor arrogant, and vaguely expresses dissatisfaction with the phrase "Ronaldo's shadow". And without belittling anyone. In addition, at the same time, he fully demonstrated his self-confidence and pride. Ernaux now understands what his subordinates say about Old Lei, "Before any victory, the young Portuguese has extraordinary paranoia". If someone else said this, Ernaux might feel disgusted and disgusted. But what came out of Lao Lei's mouth, he could accept it. According to Lao Lei's strength and resume, he is indeed qualified to say this. After all, judging from Lao Lei's current bright future, he is properly moving in the direction of a legendary superstar. Powerful people speak. It can always be louder.

Looking at the high-spirited and daring young man in front of him, Ernaux felt a little nostalgic for his young years for a while. This kind of vigor and vitality made him appreciate it. and made him nostalgic and envious. Shaking his head and clearing the thought out of his mind for a while, Ernaux began to get down to business. First of all. As is customary, he first gave a detailed introduction to the scoring mechanism of the Ballon d'Or.

The European Ballon d'Or, the crowning glory of individual football in Europe, is voted on by 96 judges. Each player is selected as 5 players, ranked in order from one to five. The first place is awarded five points. The second place is awarded four points, decreasing in order, and the fifth place is awarded one point. Finally, the votes of all players are added up to the scores, which is the total final score of the player, and the final three winners are also divided.

Although every selection, without exception, there is canvassing, or the sponsorship of the player has a relationship, this kind of thing happens. But in general, the selection of the Golden Globes is still fair, and there are very few very controversial situations. Like this selection in 04, there should be almost no controversy, after all, from the perspective of personal and team honors, Lao Lei is a grade above several other competitors. However, even so, Lao Lei was still curious about how much his score was, or how much his own score exceeded the second place. As a rare midfielder in the history of the Ballon d'Or selection, Lao Lei is very curious about how much advantage he can have.

However, Lao Lei didn't ask in the end, because he knew that Ernaux would not answer. Even if he is the final winner, these specific details will not be revealed until the day of the awards, otherwise the Golden Globe Awards ceremony will be too boring and lacking in highlights.

After introducing the rules, Ernaux stood up, picked up the Golden Globe trophy from the table next to him, put it in front of Lao Lei, and said with a smile: "Now is the most important moment of the day, be mental, young man, reflect your charm." At this time, the two photojournalists of "French Football" on the side were ready. At that time, these photos will appear on the big screen as a background at the award ceremony.

Buttoning up the chic casual suit that Kayla had bought for herself, Ray took over the heavy, glittering Golden Globe trophy from Ernaux's hand amid the clattering shutter of the photojournalist. "Mr. Remayr, after our European Golden Globe Awards jury, you scored the highest score out of 50 candidates, so you will be awarded the European Golden Globe Award in '04 for recognition!" Ernaux said solemnly from the side.

Lao Lei held this hard-won trophy in both hands, and what he was thinking about at this time was not how moved and joyful he was, nor the difficulties and setbacks he had encountered, nor the great predecessors who had won the cup before him. Instead, I'm thinking that the next one next year will be mine. If such a domineering predetermined idea were known to Ernaux or other players, I don't know if they would immediately collapse, and sighed "Remaia is really the one and only".

Then, Ernaux took the trophy back from Lao Lei's hand and asked the staff on the side to engrave Lao Lei's name on it, the one in Portuguese. Although Lao Lei wanted them to engrave their names in Chinese, in order to avoid being regarded as crazy, he decided to shut up and hid this idea deep in his heart. When Ernaux handed the trophy back to Lao Lei again, he gently stroked the name that belonged to him, and his heart was both happy and a little complicated. After all, in the eyes of the world, this trophy belongs to Portugal's Lei Maia, not China's Lao Lei.

"Come, boy, take a few handsome photos with your Golden Globe trophy!" Ernaux's words awakened the contemplative old Ray. When Ray came to his senses, he smiled apologetically at Ernaux. This makes this old man find very interesting, he has presented awards to many superstars, but no one has ever shown a trace of melancholy and regret at such a moment. He was very puzzled, and in the end he could only blame this on Lao Lei's unique spiritual world that was different from ordinary people. Next, Lao Lei was like a model, holding the trophy and posing in various poses and shapes under the guidance of the professional photographer of "French Football" for taking pictures.

After the photo shoot is over, the interview session begins. Faced with the beautiful reporter's question, Lao Lei talked eloquently, obviously out of the love just now and returned to normal. In reply, "Who are you most grateful for?" "What kind of problem do you feel right now?" After that, the beautiful reporter also began to ask attractive and interesting questions.

In this link, Lao Lei really did not disappoint the beautiful reporter. A series of answers made the beautiful reporter's eyes flash, and in the end, she couldn't help but cover her red lips and exclaim. And the reactions of the staff who were also staying in the room, Ernaux and the others, were not much better, and Lao Lei's answer was far beyond their expectations. Through these answers, they all got acquainted with this young Portuguese who was dubbed the "news maker" and "the most maverick" by the English media.

This whole set of processes is actually not long, but it is only about half an hour. When Lao Lei left, the people who stayed in the room were still a little immersed in Lao Lei's answer just now. "Sir, have you ever seen a player like this?" There was a staff member who couldn't help but ask the well-informed Ernaux.

"No, at least of all the Golden Globe winners I've awarded, he's the most special one. This is perhaps the most unique European Footballer of the Year in the last 20 years. Ernaux shook his head with a wry smile and replied. Thinking of Lao Lei's series of answers just now, Ernaux, who has a lot of experience, has to admit that such an answer has never appeared on such a formal occasion as the Golden Globe Awards in his impression, never.

"What do you think of the other four top five scorers?"

"Well, I don't know who they are. But they must be very good, great players, otherwise they wouldn't be comparing themselves to me here. At the moment, I may not be much different from them, but it was their misfortune to meet me this year. In this year alone, I never thought that anyone could pose a threat to me, no one! To be honest, it's just no one!! ”

"Winning this award is undoubtedly a great achievement and recognition for your career. What are your expectations or requirements for yourself in the new season? You know, the one qiē you've arrived in Porto and Portugal this year is almost unsurpassable. ”

"Nothing is unsurpassable, no! I'm only 22 years old, and it's too early to talk about the pinnacle, the most brilliant. My thought now is, I'm going to get a few more! I love the shape of this trophy! Hehe. ”

"How far do you think you can achieve in your career?"

"I don't know, and I've never thought about it. As long as I can still play and I can still play, my football career will not be at its peak! There are no vertices! There is no end!! ”

"You seem to have an extraordinary paranoia about victory?"

"Yes."

"Because, that's my life!!" (To be continued......)
