Chapter 267 Beautiful Bow Knot
May 4, 2008, International Youth Day.
The whole Ibiza team stayed at the Leiberto Holiday Inn chain one day in advance. Now, the whole team left the hotel and boarded the bus to the Ibiza Sporting Stadium.
Fang Jue finally came out of the hotel, and when he was about to board the bus, there was a noise, and he saw the hotel security personnel stop a strong middle-aged woman.
The woman was waving an old blue scarf in her hand, shouting loudly, seeing that it had attracted Fang Jue's attention, she immediately waved it even more excitedly.
"Please come here, lady," Fang Jue said.
This is an Ibiza fan. She introduced herself as Nicole Beret. Her intention for coming here is very simple. She wants to give this old scarf to Fang Jue.
At first, he didn't pay much attention to it, but when he took the scarf casually, and saw the Arabic numerals of 1953 and the light pink castle pattern on the faded old scarf, Fang Jue was stunned.
This is the scarf of the year when the Ibiza club was founded. 1953 was the time when the team was founded. This light pink castle pattern also caused some sarcasm and ridicule from other teams at that time. Later, the club changed the pink to It has become the blue that best fits the image of the club.
Later, this pink scarf of the first generation in the history of Ibiza almost became an absolute item. There were not many sold at that time, and now only a very small number of old fans still have this scarf in their hands, and Ibiza Visa fans gave this scarf a name: Pink Memory.
"This is a pink memory scarf." Fang Jue handed the scarf back to Nicole Beret, "It's too expensive, I can't accept it."
"Mr. Fang Jue, accept it." Nicole Beret said, "This is my sister's wish."
"Who is your sister?" Fang Jue asked.
"Sophia Beret." Nicole Beret said.
...
Fang Jue showed a surprised expression. He had already guessed when he heard the surname Beret. Now he understands that the establishment of the Ibiza Club half a century ago was actually a bit of a joke. A fan went to the island of Palma to watch a Las Palmas game, and was ridiculed by the local fans that Ibiza did not have its own team and had to take a boat to watch their team's game, which made the dozen or so fans very angry. Back to Ibiza, the more I think about it, the more angry I get. Las Palmas Club has only been established for four years. What a fart, half a catty of wine, stubborn temper, Ibiza has no team? Let's start a football club ourselves.
Among the dozen or so fans, there is one surnamed Beret, who is an elementary school art teacher by profession. At that time, the job assigned to him was to design the club's scarf. He worked hard all night, and finally designed a manuscript that he was most satisfied with. , When I showed it to everyone, I was surprised to find that the castle on the scarf, which he was still not sure what color to paint, was painted in pink.
The gentleman was very angry and immediately guessed that it was his eldest daughter Sophia Beret who did it.
Others laughed, and some said, this pattern is good, that's all... Then, I really used this pink pattern.
Later, when the father asked his daughter why he moved his drawing, the daughter said confidently that she thought pink was the cutest.
To this day, in the archives of the Ibiza Club, there is still the original pink drawing. Although the castle on the club logo is blue now, this pink memory is still alive. Deeply retained in the hearts of many old fans.
When Fang Jue worked in the Ibiza Club, he also worked part-time in the archives for a period of time, so he knew this allusion and also knew the name of Sofia Beret.
At that time, Fang Jue just thought it was funny. Yes, in the eyes of little girls, pink is naturally the cutest. He also saw a picture of Sofia Beret, a very cute little girl with some freckles on her face. , smiled and showed two small canine teeth, smiling very sweetly.
...
"Sofia has always had a wish. When Ibiza can be promoted to La Liga, she will personally give this scarf to the team coach, thanking him for his excellent work." Nicole Beret said.
"Sophia?" Fang Jue asked softly, he was worried about hearing bad news.
"Alzheimer's disease." Nicole Beret said, "However, she is well taken care of."
Fang Jue breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, this..." He pointed to the scarf.
"If possible, I hope Mr. Coach you can wear this scarf to direct the game today. I will accompany my sister to watch the game. I hope she can witness the realization of her dream with her own eyes."
"I understand." Fang Jue nodded solemnly. He took the faded old scarf and hung it around his neck. Nicole Beret helped him tie it with a bow.
Fang Jue looked down, a little surprised.
"Sophia likes to tie bows the most." Nicole Beret said, "If you don't like it, coach, you can..."
"No, I like it very much." Fang Jue said, "There is nothing more beautiful than this."
As he said that, Fang Jue gently hugged Nicole Beret, "Say hello to Sophia for me, and tell her that we won't let her down again."
Fang Jue strode onto the bus, waved goodbye to the burly Ms. Berrett, and the bow on his chest fluttered in the wind, really beautiful. .
...
Ibiza fans cemetery.
Standing at the cemetery, looking out, you can see the Ibiza Sporting Stadium in the distance.
Mrs. Alfonso is saying goodbye to Mr. Alfonso, "Javier. The team may be promoted to La Liga today. You will hear the huge cheers."
"My health is getting worse and worse, maybe I can come to accompany you soon."
"I'm not by your side, you didn't mess around in heaven, well, I know you dare not."
"Javier, please bless your beloved Ibiza."
The old woman got up slowly, turned and left slowly, and walked slowly on the stone road. Behind her, there was a bunch of white flowers in front of the black tombstone, and an Ibiza scarf was tied on the tombstone.
At the bottom of the epitaph on the tombstone, it reads: Javier Nieto Alfonso, who loved Ibiza deeply, is buried here.
At the entrance of the cemetery, a wooden sign reads this sentence:
Hi, don't forget to let us know when Ibiza is promoted to La Liga.
The Ibiza bus was slowly driving into the parking lot of the Ibiza Athletic Stadium. Because of Nicole Beret's incident, they were delayed for some time, so they arrived at the stadium five minutes later than the scheduled time.
On the way, Fareko noticed the old scarf on the coach's neck, recognized it as the extremely precious pink memory scarf, and shouted in surprise.
"Coach, 'Pink Memory', where did it come from?"
Fang Jue felt that this was a good opportunity for the players to enhance the team’s culture and enhance everyone’s sense of identity with the team. He told about a little girl named Sophia Beret, a girl named Sophia Beret The story of Rett's old woman with Alzheimer's disease and the scarf.
The bus was very quiet, and everyone was moved by the story.
Fang Jue didn't take the opportunity to do any passionate mobilization. Before he arrived at the stadium and was about to get off the car, he only said one sentence: Play well, many, many people have waited too long for this day.
He didn't finish this sentence, the complete sentence should be: Many, many people have waited for this day for too long, some people have not waited, they continue to wait in heaven, and are always ready to hear the good news.
