Chapter 942 The Plum Ball King Arrives in London (2)
The interview lasted for an hour before it ended. The film crew was dismantling the props. Jorge, who went up to ask Messi's status, suddenly found Yang Cheng, and hurried forward without thinking too much, "Mr. Yang? When did you come? I'm really sorry that I couldn't go down to greet you in person."
There is no such thing as the legendary old-fashioned, and Jorge's respectful attitude is no different from that of ordinary celebrity managers.
Yang Cheng shook hands with Jorge with a smile, and said politely, "Jorge, you are a great father, you have cultivated the champion of football in the 21st century."
When it comes to his son, Jorge is full of pride, undisguised and humble, "Leon is indeed the best."
At this time, Messi, who saw all this, took off the microphone with the help of the staff, walked over hesitantly, and said with a complicated expression, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Yang."
Yang Cheng laughed, "I guess you don't want to see me, because I messed up your peaceful life with one hand."
Is this a disguised admission that he was the one playing tricks before?
Messi and Jorge didn't expect Yang Cheng to be so straightforward that they couldn't speak at all.
The staff hadn't evacuated yet, judging from what they meant, it was estimated that Yang Cheng would not say a word, and they would be able to dawdle forever. After all, it would be a big deal to hear some of the conversation between Yang Cheng and Messi casually.
But how could Yang Cheng follow their wishes, winking at Ian Ayer, which made him touching, while he patted Messi on the shoulder and chatted, "Speaking of which, I'm still a year younger than you, I heard you like animals very much?"
When Yang Cheng was looking around, his eyes caught sight of the cover of a magazine. On it was a photo of Messi and the goat. In front of the camera, Messi looked like a professional model. He was very close to these animals.
Therefore, Yang Cheng took advantage of the opportunity to use this topic to get closer to each other. Finding a topic that the other party likes is a rhythm-leading conversation skill.
As expected, Messi immediately relaxed and said with a smile, "I do like small animals very much, especially those domestic animals that are docile and willing to get along with people. After all, when I was growing up, I often met with animals." They are together, and they have taught me a lot.
Now I have a dog at home named Hulk and he has really become a part of our family we have always treated him like a family member and my kids learn from Hulk To many, the love between it and the children is unchanging. "
Yang Cheng could feel that when the family was mentioned, the softest part of Messi's heart was touched.
There is love for his family in his eyes. Generally speaking, this kind of person is more nostalgic. I have heard others say that I have not had such deep feelings before, but seeing it with my own eyes, Yang Cheng knows that it is rumored that Messi loves his family and misses the old. It's not groundless.
This is not easy.
I don’t know if he saw Yang Cheng’s thoughts, but Messi said intentionally or unintentionally, “Nowadays I need to go back to Argentina except for the national team’s game. I spend most of my time in Spain and I’m used to everything there. My hometown, even more than Argentina, which I left at a very young age.
Of course I miss my childhood in Argentina so much, I can go back to Argentina whenever I want to fill myself up with energy, I hope that when I am old, I will be able to return to live in Argentina one day, sometimes you will notice Realize that the good things about your country give you the greatest joy, and the bad things make you feel the greatest pain. "
Yang Cheng frowned puzzledly, but carefully savoring the words, he seemed to realize something, Messi seemed to be implying something, Barcelona was his second hometown, he was nostalgic, he didn't want to leave home for the second time, he loved My own homeland, even if it will bring me pain, but it also has a happy side.
The meaning is obvious. Messi is expressing that even if Barcelona hurts his heart, he still doesn't want to leave there easily, because it is his home.
Messi's eyes suddenly sharpened, as if he was staring at the goal on the field, trying to shoot the damn ball in, and said loudly, "I have some Argentine qualities, such as the determination to do one thing well , we give our all to get what we want, and that trait in me is maybe a mix of ambition and loyalty, and it's always been a part of me."
Yang Cheng answered subconsciously, "That's why you should venture into a wider world, shouldn't you? Instead of staying in your comfort zone forever, reminiscing about past glory!"
These words are not unreasonable, but Yang Cheng still said it. He felt that the introduction of Messi was just a step away, and he couldn't shrink back just because of Messi's hypocritical words.
Messi frowned, "Mr. Yang, I'm afraid you don't understand my feelings for Barcelona. Because of a natural disease, no one expected me to play football back then. It was Barcelona who gave me a chance. One cannot forget the origin of the achievements in the world."
Yang Cheng felt that this was just Messi's instinctive resistance, not that he really knew he didn't want to leave, otherwise he wouldn't have expressed to the media that he might leave, "I just heard what you said in the interview Answer, I think there is a saying that is quite correct. Football has developed into a business, a game of capital, and players have become pawns in the hands of capitalists.
Of course, you have the right to choose to say no, but you have to think clearly, the consequence of saying no is being kicked off the chessboard, a chess piece that has lost the battlefield is just a piece of waste wood, it has no value at all, you understand me mean? "
Without giving Messi more time to think, he spoke faster, "Barcelona is one of the capitalists in charge of the chess pieces, and I am the same. We are playing chess, naturally for the ultimate victory and to maximize the benefits. If one day you become People who play chess may be able to understand Barcelona's approach.
Including bringing you from the Pampas grassland to La Masia back then, they were not doing charity, but just a gamble with no loss at all. You were looked down upon by everyone because of your illness. Barcelona may have discovered you The shining point on your body, and then sign you with a very small price. If you win the bet, you will naturally make a lot of money, and you will lose nothing if you lose. You don’t think that hundreds of thousands of euros in surgery fees are for the rich and powerful Barcelona What is the price?
Now, it is clear that Barcelona has won the bet. The honors and money you have won for Barcelona over the years are enough to repay the original kindness. Now it is time for you to step out and challenge the higher sky, and at the same time, you can leave a lot of money for your old club. Enough money to sign dozens of young talents, it's a win-win, no-win-triple situation. "
