Reborn on top of football

"You're complaining that you're tired, and you're just doing the work you're given. Are you cheap?" Xu Qinglian pinched Wang Ai's ears.

Li Lin, who was driving, suppressed his laughter and heard Wang Ai shout hoarsely: "Hey, don't scratch me. I have to record an advertisement tomorrow. Let me tell you, I can't help it."

"Why can't you do anything?" Xu Qinglian was tired of tearing it apart, so she let go and gasped.

"Oh, that guy Lao Gao..." Wang Ai tidied up his clothes and said, "Brother Li Lin, go to the Olympic Sports Center for a walk."

The car turned, and Wang Ai looked at Xu Qinglian and Leonie in the back row: "Lao Gao is the first professional chairman since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and football is the earliest professional project with gold and silver seas. However, this project is because of its professionalism. It doesn’t take long, the mechanism is incomplete and there are too many loopholes.”

"If you are a layman, you can just come up and grasp the main contradiction. You can't think of other things and don't worry. He can't do it. He is an insider. He has seen too much and wants to do too much. Therefore, the interests that are touched are particularly special. Big, very many. But he still has a temper that would rather bend than bend. Even though I haven’t returned to China in the past six months and haven’t had much contact with the country, I can feel the storm inside the Football Association just from the daily college meetings.”

"Well, let's be alone. If I am mediocre, I will naturally not encounter anything. I am afraid of having big ambitions. No matter how high the ambition is, there will be no resistance." Wang Ai shook his head when he said this: "The training time is still short. It would be nice if he stayed in the position beyond sports boss for a few more years."

"Not necessarily." Leonie interjected: "Some people are just like that. No matter how much training they have, it doesn't matter. No matter how much experience he has, as long as he gets to that position, he will still do the same things and choose that way when faced with a choice. At most it can be handled more efficiently.”

"So, you want to help him?" Xu Qinglian calmed down: "Are you busy enough?"

"This vice chairman actually clarified my current actual status. Lao Gao gave me part of the approval power. On the surface, it was to strengthen the scientific nature of decision-making. In fact, he asked me to help him bear part of the pressure. Some decisions he made disappeared. If you can resist it, it will be easy to blame me. If you are not convinced, you can come to Madrid to find me. You can create public opinion that my level is not good enough, haha. Everyone knows that this is Lao Gao's way of playing with me, but you can only Watch us play.”

"Vice Chairman in name only?"

"Yes, the ranking is quite low, and the actual status is far inferior to that of the dean like me. After all, the dean is one of the three giants, the chairman of the Football Association and the director of the Football Management Center. The vice president is nothing, especially the one who is ranked low can start a business. Someone who knows how to raise his hand."

"Then what is his intention?" Xu Qinglian asked, asking and answering: "Strengthen the leadership of the Football Association team. If we encounter difficult decisions again, I can ask you to attend the meeting and speak to promote certain reforms that cannot be pushed forward."

Seeing Wang Ai nodding, Xu Qinglian was about to say something when her phone rang and she saw it was Cheng Wei's.

Wang Ai laughed, Xu Qinglian rolled her eyes at him and answered the phone.

"There is nothing I can do. I can't control his donkey-like temper, so I have to ask my junior brother to take action..."

Wang Ai originally leaned over to listen, but Xu Qinglian pushed him away, so he listened intermittently. But I also understood what the senior sister meant. To put it simply, I came here to apologize. I was afraid that Wang Ai would have other ideas, especially Xu Qinglian. When her husband caused trouble, she couldn't handle it, so she dragged her junior brother up to take the blame. Although the junior brother wore a helmet and didn't mind being attacked by one or two ladybugs, it still didn't sound good to others.

Men may not care about this, but women tend to pay more attention to it.

"What do you mean, you say we are petty?" Xu Qinglian heard Wang Ai's comment when she put down the phone.

Wang Ai looked at her intently for three seconds: "If you didn't say this, you really wouldn't be able to tell."

Xu Qinglian was so angry that she was speechless and decisively started the second round of the couple's daily fight.

While the couple was arguing, the Olympic Sports Center, which was particularly significant to Wang Ai, slowly passed by the car window. Li Lin, who was driving, listened to the noise in the car with a smile on his lips, and kept reminiscing about the original time from the car window, reversing mirror, and rearview mirror.

Wang Ai was still young at that time, Xu Qinglian was still young at that time, he was only in his early twenties at that time, the Olympic Sports Center at that time was not as bright as it is now, and Chinese football at that time was still a desert.

All this has changed since that cold autumn night. Just as he has been left by his side for twenty years, Dr. Wang is a long-term lover. When I heard that Lao Gao was in a difficult situation, the current scene was bound to happen, whether he could see it or not.

"Quick, get ready, the leader will meet you tonight."

As soon as she got home, Huang Xin hurried over with a full belly: "Dad just called. He has a meeting at the work and asked me to inform you."

"Ah? Why suddenly..."

"Have you brought the trophy?" Huang Xin couldn't help but said: "Let's go into the hospital and rest for a while, then think about what the leader can ask, what you did to get the leader to meet you, and then think about how to answer."

The little beauty stepped forward to support Huang Xin: "Please slow down, you are still walking so fast when you are pregnant."

"I forgot in the rush." ​​Huang Xin slowed down.

"What did dad say?" Xu Qinglian held her other hand.

"I didn't say anything else. It's probably because of the Grand Slam, right? It had such a great influence that the leader received me as a courtesy? Of course, this is my guess."

"Oh, that's right." Xu Qinglian nodded: "This is the first time in the world that someone has won the Golden Globe Award, World Footballer, and World Track and Field Award, all in the same year. Oh, we are so excited around us, and the leaders are also Remember."

Just as he was talking, Wang Ai's phone rang, and when he picked it up, his father told him: "You and Xiao Xu will go together. The car will pick you up in the evening. The World Footballer Trophy went to Hong Kong for an exhibition and the effect is very good. The leader may want to ask about this situation. You and Huang Xin have a good chat."

After hanging up the phone, the group walked into the living room of the old house in DC. The children were still in kindergarten, but they couldn't eat together tonight. After Huang Xin heard what Wang Ai meant, she told Wang Ai exactly what she had observed at the Hong Kong exhibition trophy.

Except for Leonie who was a little tired and went to rest, the family kept chatting until the lights came on. Wang Ai and his wife had a relatively comprehensive understanding of the situation in Hong Kong and a deeper understanding of the impact of the trophy. When Wang Bin and Ai Xiaoqing were returning home, a car also arrived in front of their house. There was no time to chat with their parents. Wang Ai and Xu Qinglian got in with five trophies, two footballs, and a set of jerseys. An ordinary car.

In the hazy night, the couple, who had already greeted the driver and co-pilot, were quietly admiring the garden outside the window, pressing the suitcase containing the trophy at their feet from time to time. From the countryside to the Jinluan Palace, the couple was no longer as excited as they were at first. It seemed like they had walked an uneventful journey.

Just like this long journey.
