Chapter 1 Gossip

The Capital Olympics is a sports event that China and the world are looking forward to. When the countdown to the Olympics begins, the vast majority of sports media at home and abroad will focus on it.

The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in the capital was held at the Olympic Stadium, with more than 91,000 spectators and dignitaries from many heads of state participating.

The opening ceremony was directed by the famous director Zhang Yimou. The opening ceremony consisted of 2008 staff wearing a cane that would glow. Every time the cane was beaten, it would emit light, forming Chinese and Arabic numerals and counting down the opening seconds.

Then from Yongdingmen to the main venue, 29 fireworks in the shape of footprints were continuously released along the central axis of the capital city, symbolizing "the 29th Olympic Games entered the capital step by step", and the opening ceremony officially began.

The theatrical performance at the opening ceremony is called "Beautiful Olympics" and is divided into two parts. Prosperity with rising living standards.

After that, the performances started one by one.

Wan Sheng also appeared in the venue, and he appeared together with David Beckham in a sports program.

When Wan Sheng and Beckham appeared together, it immediately became the focus of the venue and even many viewers in front of the TV. They all wanted to see what show Wan Sheng would perform with Beckham.

The show, called "Our Common Olympics", is actually a rather powerful song and dance performance. Wan Sheng and Beckham appeared together, danced to the song, and then a surprising scene appeared.

A football appeared in front of the song and dance. Beckham walked to the ball with dancing steps and pushed the ball to Wansheng.

Wan Sheng stood there and kicked the ball to the other side of the stage.

As the camera lens looked over, I saw that the football accurately passed through the middle of a ring with a diameter of less than one meter standing in the air.

When seeing this scene, almost everyone thought it was a lighting effect, otherwise it would not explain why Wansheng could accurately kick the football into the ring, but when the show ended, a camera still caught the staff holding the ring. Walk away shot.

The ring is not an arranged lighting effect.

In other words, did Wansheng really kick the football into the center of the ring? Is his footwork so good?

Lots of thumbs up.

Waiting for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games to end, there are still many people talking about it. After the athletes enter the stadium, the opening ceremony is about to end. At this time, the people who have finished performing backstage are ready to leave.

Wansheng was stopped in the channel by the media.

He is discussing the appearance of the closing ceremony with Beckham. According to the director's arrangement, in the last few minutes of the closing ceremony, Beckham will come to the stage to kick a ball, saying "the handover of the 2012 London Olympics".

Beckham is asking Wansheng how to play the ball more beautifully.

The two met media reporters while they were talking, and they immediately asked about the kicking performance at the opening ceremony.

Before Wan Sheng said anything, Beckham smiled directly, "Wan Sheng has always been very accurate in playing football, don't you know? I think if he was a few years younger, he could be a professional player, and that must be the case. A big star, at least not worse than me..."

Wan Sheng shook his head with a smile and said, "That's nothing. During the rehearsal before the opening ceremony, I practiced this move countless times. It would be a shame if I didn't play well on stage."

The surrounding media reporters nodded in understanding.

Listening to what Wan Sheng said to the reporter, Beckham shook his head and smiled bitterly. In fact, during the rehearsal, he was the one who originally arranged to kick the ball into the ring, but after several consecutive attempts, the odds of him being able to kick the ball in. It's not high. If you are performing on stage, it will be even more difficult to withstand the pressure.

The director was about to cut off this part, but Wansheng took the initiative to take on the task, and the success rate was quite high after several consecutive attempts.

So this part was handed over to Wansheng.

No one could have imagined that Wansheng played more accurately than Beckham, and even the director was dumbfounded.

Now the show is very successful, but Wansheng puts the credit on the rehearsal practice. Beckham only feels that Wansheng is low-key and does not want to make a statement. After all, he has now announced his retirement and will not participate in the content of professional football.

Wansheng didn't care.

He didn't want to be a professional player, so he certainly wouldn't be as comfortable and exciting as a coach. Now he's not even a coach, let alone a professional player.

However, being a professional player does not mean incapacity. Through 'capacity sharing', he is not bad in all aspects of football. In terms of shooting, his personal evaluation value has reached 89 points, plus With the attribute bonus of various skills, his shooting ability is by no means weaker than that of top strikers.

So in terms of acting, he can still do very well.

Wansheng did not take this seriously.

After an appearance at the Beijing Olympic Games, Wansheng decided to run a football school.

The Football Association Academy is all 14-16 year old students. It is the first time that Wansheng has cultivated such young students. Compared with all professional players, this is also easier.

Wansheng is not a teacher who is in direct contact with students. He is only responsible for one job, which is to formulate training plans for all students.

After the trainees officially started training, Wansheng's ability also improved rapidly.

This is Wan Sheng's greatest joy as a football school principal.

In addition, Wansheng's life is very leisurely.

He even had time to live in the United States for a month in September, when European football was in full swing.

Don't worry about work. It is still very comfortable to spend time with Anita at ease. Usually, Anita goes out to work, while he is at home as a 'woman and man', which is an alternative life experience.

Just like that, several months passed.

Before Christmas, Wan Sheng and Anita held their wedding in London, England. As the chairman of the Tagolwan Group, the wedding of him and the little princess of the Murdoch family must be very grand and grand. Many football people and dignitaries , Nobles and ladies came to attend the wedding.

The grandeur of the whole process is needless to say.

This is also the first public appearance of Wansheng in Europe since half a year.

After the wedding, Wan Sheng and Anita attended the awarding ceremony of the British royal family together. Because of leading Manchester City to sweep Europe last season, the British royal family decided to award Wan Sheng the CBE Commander Medal.

Now that the royal family is withering, many people are interested in the titles of the British royal family.

Now the title of non-hereditary life peers in the United Kingdom is "Baron".

In 1992, Mrs Thatcher was made a life peer and became Baroness of Kesting, Lincolnshire, and her husband Dennis Thatcher was made a Baron in 1991; in 2003, Dennis - Thatcher's son, Mark Thatcher, inherited the title, the only baronial title established since 1965.

The title of baron is higher than that of most knights, but like knights, it is not a "noble" in the true sense, and still belongs to the civilian class, and "knights" are also divided into three, six, and nine ranks.

Under the life-long nobility is the title of knight, and the title of Sir/Dame (Sir/Dame) can also be used before the name after the canonization.

The knighthood is roughly divided into two types, one is to obtain a knight-level knighthood, and the other is to obtain a lower-level knighthood. Those who receive a knighthood can use the honorary title of Sir/Dame before their name, and those with a medal after their name. abbreviation.

The highest level of knighthood is England's Order of the Garter, which Margaret Thatcher received in 1995, which is higher than that of a baron.

The last level of the Order of the Knights is the Order of the British Empire, which has the largest number of recipients.

The Order of the British Empire consists of 5 grades: the Grand Cross GBE, Knight Commander KBE/DBE, Commander CBE, Officer OBE, Member MBE, but only the first two – the Grand Cross and Only those who have been awarded the Knight Commander's Medal can be given the title of knighthood.

Another way to obtain the title of "knight" is to obtain a knighthood, the oldest type of knighthood in the UK.

Most of the knights of the lower order are judges of the Supreme Court. Mr. Branson, the founder of Virgin Group, and Mr. Shaw, the founder of the widely respected TVB, are the lower-level knights. Manchester United head coach "Lord Sir" Ferguson was awarded is also a lower-ranked knight.

In fact, "Sir" Ferguson has been awarded three times by the British royal family.

As early as 1984, Ferguson was awarded the Order of the British Empire (OBE); after that, he was awarded the medal by the royal family again; after leading Manchester United to win the unprecedented triple crown in 1999, he was knighted by the British royal family, "Mr. This is where the title of "Father" comes from.

The two medals Ferguson was awarded were the Order of the British Empire.

He was awarded OBE in 1984, thanks to him leading the Aberdeen team to eliminate Bayern and Tottenham in the European Cup Winners' Cup, all the way to the final, and beat Real Madrid 2:1, becoming the third team to compete in Europe. The Scottish team that won the championship; after 6 years of preparation, Ferguson's Manchester United finally won the league title for the first time in the 1992/1993 season, and won the Premier League and FA Cup double in the following season. Ferguson was awarded a CBE in an award ceremony in early 1995.

After the dream of three consecutive championships was broken, in the 1998/1999 season, Ferguson led Manchester United to sweep the three major stadiums of the Premier League, FA Cup and UEFA Champions League, and won the unprecedented triple crown, and was awarded the Knight-Bachelor (lower level) by the British royal family. A knight of the Order), thus becoming a true knight.

In fact, many Manchester United players have been awarded OBEs, such as Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Hughes, Robson Jr., etc., but they can't be called before they have not won a medal above KBE or been awarded a junior jazz for "Jazz".

Wansheng was awarded the CBE Commander Medal, which is one level higher than the general award.

But despite this, CBE is still not up to the level of 'jazz'.

Wan Sheng originally thought that leading Manchester City to win the Grand Slam, he would be called "Jazz" in the future.

Wansheng feels a little sorry for this.

In fact, "Jazz" or "Jazz", Wan Sheng doesn't care, but he is one level lower than the old man Ferguson, he just feels very uncomfortable.

Wan Sheng received the award from the British royal family and was reported by many media.

But after that, the media could no longer find Wan Sheng, because he returned to China to run his football school with peace of mind.

Madrid, Spain, June 2010.

Two people stood on the side of the street, and one of them whispered, "Hey, I just got the news that Atlético de Madrid is being acquired..."

"My God! This is big news! Is the news accurate?"

"Of course! It was revealed by someone from Atlético de Madrid. It seems to be a Chinese company. What is the name of Tai... Tai Wan Development Investment? Strange name..." (To be continued ~^~)
