Chapter 876 Award Ceremony (Part 2)
In fact, there is not much suspense about Miss World Football. Marta has won the title of Miss World Football four times in a row. There has been no major competition in women's football in the world for 10 years. Marta has performed well in the American Major League, scoring in 24 games. 19 goals, five consecutive championships are already something that the aging Prinz and the immature Balamayi can stop.
"France Football" CEO Molinier, who is responsible for awarding Miss World Football, opened the golden envelope and drew out the list of winners. Sure enough, it was still Marta. This is the fifth time she has been elected Miss World Football, five consecutive championships, and unprecedented in the history of football. Once upon a time, Marta cried with joy when receiving the trophy, and there was warm applause at the venue.
The host of FIFA pointed out: Marta has become a monument, a legend, and is the greatest female football player in the history of football.
Later, when Mata gave his acceptance speech, he said: "I am very excited. I want to thank God for everything that has happened in my life. I also want to thank my teammates in the club and national team. This is an individual award, but without my teammates, I’m not going to stand here and accept the award, I’m delighted to have won it for the fifth time and I hope it will drive the growth of women’s football.”
After Marta spoke, Guardiola walked onto the podium. At this time, the eyes of fans all over the world were focused on Xavi, Iniesta and Gao Xiaodong. One of the three of them will become the first post-merger team. Winner of the Golden Globe Award.
When Guardiola walked to the podium, Gao Xiaodong's parents were nervously watching the TV at home.
Recently, Gao Xiaodong's parents have also been paying attention to the news. They know that it is unlikely that Gao Xiaodong will win the award. However, as parents, they all hope that their son can become the best. Therefore, even if the award ceremony is at two o'clock in the morning, the couple will I sat in front of the TV early, waiting to see the final result.
"Xiaodong's father, do you think Xiaodong can get the golden ball?" Gao Mu asked anxiously.
"How do I know?" Gao's father said something back to Gao's mother, and then shook his head and said: "The chance seems slim. I heard that in World Cup years, the person who wins the World Cup wins the award."
Gao Mu said disappointedly: "Didn't Xiaodong win the World Cup? Didn't he say he was the champion?"
Gao's father said: "That's different. The World Cup is the national team, and his championship is the club."
Gao Mu said: "Our country is so big, why can't we win the World Cup?"
Father Gao said: "How do I know? Anyway, Xiaodong has little hope."
Gao Mu said: "What if Xiaodong is lucky? I think Xiaodong's luck has always been good."
Father Gao said: "They are all selected by voting.
Can foreigners vote for Xiaodong? "
He said this, but Gao's father looked more nervous than Gao's mother, staring at Guardiola unblinkingly, as if he had bought a double-color lottery ticket and was waiting for the draw.
In Porto, Portugal, Zhang Qi and Chen Qiang were also watching the award ceremony with Xinglong employees and Star of Hope players.
For them, Gao Xiaodong's achievements are related to the future and destiny of Xinglong Company and the Star of Hope players.
The greater Gao Xiaodong's achievements and higher status, the faster Xinglong Company will develop. On the other hand, if Gao Xiaodong becomes unknown, Xinglong Company may also lose the opportunity to develop in Europe.
Chen Qiang took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said, "Brother Zhang, how big do you think the hope is?"
Zhang Qi said: "It's very small. Xiaodong's personal performance is better than Xavi and Iniesta, but the World Cup is more important than anything else. If Xiaodong was a white man, there might be miracles, but now..."
Chen Qiang sighed and said, "Chinese are still discriminated against in Europe."
In a luxurious apartment at Brown University in Rhode Island, the United States, Emma was nervously looking at Gao Xiaodong on the live TV camera. For some reason, Emma was a little nervous. She was worried that it would not be Gao Xiaodong who won the award in the end. She didn't want to see Gao Xiaodong sad.
"We are friends, everyone would want their friend to win the award, not the other two strangers." Emma explained for herself.
In the apartment in Lijing Community, Yuexiu District, Yangcheng City, Huaguo, Zhao Xiyuan finished typing the last line of the manuscript, rubbed her eyes, stood up, yawned, and prepared to rest. However, after saving and closing the Word manuscript, she saw the computer navigation page. News about the Golden Globe Awards and pictures of Gao Xiaodong.
Zhao Xiyuan opened the web page, and Gao Xiaodong's smile on the page became clearer. Zhao Xiyuan looked firmly into Gao Xiaodong's eyes, "Will you blame me for rejecting you... Don't blame me... I don't know why I rejected you... Maybe it’s just not destined..."
Barcelona's head coach Guardiola shook hands with "France Football" CEO Molinier and picked up the golden envelope containing the name of the Ballon d'Or winner.
Xavi's eyes were fixed on his coach's eyes, as if he wanted to get some inspiration from Guardiola's eyes. His expression remained calm, but his tightly closed lips and feet with nowhere to rest gave him away. of tension and uneasiness.
Iniesta's eyes wandered, sometimes looking at Guardiola, sometimes turning his head to look at the roof and walls, with the same worry about gain and loss.
No one in Spain has won the Ballon d'Or for 40 years. The last time he won the Ballon d'Or was Suarez in 1960. Spain won the World Cup this year. If Xavi and Iniesta still can't win the Ballon d'Or, I don’t know how long it will take for the next Spanish player to win the Ballon d’Or.
Gao Xiaodong was equally nervous. Although he was smiling, anyone who knew him well could tell that his smile was very stiff.
To be honest, at the beginning, Gao Xiaodong felt that his chances of winning the award were not very high, and he didn't pay much attention to it, because as a rule, in World Cup years, most Football Players come from the World Cup winning team.
But as Gao Xiaodong's father called Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong felt uneasy. He could imagine that now his family, friends and countless Chinese fans were looking forward to him winning the award.
If he can't win the award, I don't know how many people will be disappointed. Gao Xiaodong has a superstar system. He knows that he can't win the Golden Globe this time and will definitely win it in the future. But his relatives and friends don't know. Maybe in their eyes , this year is the best time to win the Ballon d'Or. If you can't win the Ballon d'Or even if you win the Triple Crown this year, I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities in the future.
At this time, Gao Xiaodong had a strong desire to win the Golden Globe Award.
However, judging from the previous selection management and media trends, Gao Xiaodong's chance of winning the award will not exceed 30%. If he wants to succeed, he will probably have to be extremely lucky.
Thinking of the incredible luck, Gao Xiaodong's eyes lit up. He thought of his special points, which could be exchanged for a luck point.
Now Gao Xiaodong has a special point earned through a year of training, and there will be another special point in February. Gao Xiaodong thinks he can try a different luck point. If successful, it will be a Golden Globe Award.
But the voting should have ended. Is it useful to change my luck point? If it doesn't work, it will be a loss. A special point is very precious. In the future, if your level increases, you will definitely get a lot of Golden Globe Awards.
However, Guardiola had already picked up the envelope and had no time to hesitate. Gao Xiaodong made a decisive decision. He opened the Superstar Road system and exchanged special points for a luck point.
