Volume 1: When a Hero Appears, People Pay Attention. Chapter 243 "A Joke" (Second Update Guaranteed)
"Thank you to UEFA for giving me one day to rush back to participate in the Super Cup, otherwise I would have to rush out of the door with the trophy in hand."
Many people did not expect the first words Chen Yingxiong said while holding the trophy in his hand, but when he said it, everyone burst into laughter. Because everyone knows that Chen Yingxiong has something to say.
UEFA puts the Super Cup and the awards ceremony in two places, and the time interval is so short. This arrangement aroused doubts and dissatisfaction from many people as soon as it came out.
But in the end Platini's explanation was quite reasonable.
But there is still such a knot in everyone's heart.
Now that Chen Yingxiong had exposed it in front of Platini, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Platini's face didn't look very good after being slapped in the face.
His ugly face was not because Chen Yingxiong had ridiculed him, but because Chen Yingxiong had seen through his little thoughts.
He knew what Chen Yingxiong meant when he said this.
He had a feeling of embarrassment at being exposed in public.
But he couldn't do anything to Chen Yingxiong.
In fact, he could only stand outside now, watching Chen Yingxiong continue to talk nonsense, and hoping that he would stop saying anything embarrassing.
Chen Yingxiong waited for everyone to finish laughing and continued: "This is the second time I have won this honor. In fact, I really want to suggest UEFA... Can you change the look? The name is 'UEFA Ballon d'Or Award' ', but the shape of this trophy really has nothing to do with 'ball'..."
Anyway, I still complain about the ugly shape of the trophy.
Platini really looked like he was spitting in his face: You think you are ugly, but you still hold on so damn tight! If you find it ugly, don’t take it!
"It feels really good to win the Golden Globe again after four years. Thank you to the reporters who voted for me. You are the people who really understand football!" Chen Yingxiong gave a thumbs up to the reporters, and the scene rang out again. There was a burst of laughter.
"Although this trophy is ugly, I still like it very much. After all, it means a lot. It would be better if it looked better..." It seems that Chen Yingxiong really resents the shape of this trophy.
"Thank you all for voting for me. I will continue to work hard and make sure you don't feel that your vote was in vain. I hope that this time next year, this time the year after, and every year in the future, I can stand here, holding the trophy. Say thank you to everyone!”
Everyone laughed again at this sentence.
Because everyone regarded Chen Yingxiong's words as a joke to liven up the atmosphere.
How is it possible to stand here and win trophies every year?
No matter how strong you are, you still have Messi.
It is absolutely impossible for Messi to let Chen Yingxiong monopolize the Golden Globe Award.
Platini was also amused by Chen Yingxiong's words. He had seen arrogant and shameless people, but never such arrogant and shameless people!
Do you still want to come every year? Go ahead and dream!
Just as Chen Yingxiong said this joke, the award ceremony ended. After a short break, it entered the drawing process.
Everyone took Chen Yingxiong's words as a joke.
No one could have imagined that Chen Yingxiong said this very seriously.
When he said he wanted to monopolize the Golden Globe Awards. Then he is really working hard towards this goal, which is completely different from casual talk.
It's just that these people can't know now.
Only time will tell whether Chen Yingxiong is joking.
Chen Yingxiong didn't mind those who laughed. He walked off the stage with the trophy with a smile on his face, looking very proud of himself.
But in the back of his mind, he's already fantasizing about this time next year when he'll be on the podium. When receiving this trophy from Platini, what will the expressions of those in the audience be like...
The most important thing is, what will Platini’s expression be like when he gives him the award... Wow, it’s really exciting just thinking about it!

Chen Yingxiong must not be interested in the lottery, but Niang is looking forward to it, not knowing who he can meet and who he can miss.
Chen Yingxiong sat next to him and accompanied him, lowering his head to play live football on his mobile phone, choosing his own team, Liverpool. The two guys he shared the stage with were beaten over and over again during the game.
It wasn't until Liverpool was drawn that he raised his head to show concern.
Liverpool were drawn into Group C, the third group. The opponents in the same group are not strong, and the result of this group is very good for Liverpool.
In addition to Liverpool, the other three teams in Group C are Eindhoven from the Netherlands, Monaco from Ligue 1, and Galatasaray from Turkey.
The strength gap between these three teams and Liverpool is very large, and it is not enough to threaten Liverpool at all. Therefore, in this group, there is no suspense for Liverpool to qualify in the end. There is no suspense about first place in the group.
The suspense also starts from the top 16. Let’s see which team Liverpool can meet at that time.
Precisely because this group was so unsuspicious, the result did not cause any waves. Even Chen Yingxiong just raised his head and glanced. He lowered his head again and continued to play the live football game he endorsed on his mobile phone.
However, Niang seemed very happy. With less resistance in the group stage, the team can accumulate more strength to deal with opponents in the knockout stage. There is also much less pressure in the league and domestic competition.
It seems that even luck has helped him this time, and Liverpool really has a chance to win the seventh crown!

The media on the next day devoted a lot of space to reporting on last night's awards ceremony and lottery ceremony. As the player who won the European Ballon d'Or for the second time, Chen Yingxiong naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.
Major media around the world are introducing this star who actually needs no introduction to fans, counting his wonderful performances in the past season, and telling everyone why he was the final winner of the Ballon d'Or, not Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. .
It's nothing more than a list of statistics and disgusting flattery.
Of course, some media also mentioned Chen Yingxiong's "joke" - that's how they labeled it.
The media mentioned did not take it seriously and just reported it as a sideshow, a sideshow.
While these media were promoting Chen Yingxiong, the person involved was already on the plane from Monaco to Prague with Niang.
The plane was delayed for an hour, and they finally arrived at the hotel in Prague at four o'clock in the afternoon and met their teammates.
When his teammates saw Chen Yingxiong, they all praised him for his good spit. The first sentence he spoke made UEFA blush with shame!
"Platini is behind you, but you may not have seen it, hero. But I saw it... As soon as you said this, his face turned ugly, hahaha!"
"Only you can say this. If it were me, even if I had ten courages, I wouldn't dare to say it.
…”
“But I really feel relieved when I watch it!”
Only other people would believe Platini's excuse, but the Liverpool players would not believe it. They and Chen Yingxiong had the same idea - this arrangement was a small move against Liverpool.
The purpose is to let Chen Yingxiong travel between two places, consume a lot of physical energy for no reason, affect his condition, and then perform abnormally in the game, causing the team to lose.
So when Chen Yingxiong said this on TV, everyone was relieved.
Martin O'Neal appeared and dispersed the players surrounding Chen Yingxiong: "You should let the hero rest for a while? He has just got off the plane!"
Everyone cooperated and got out of the way.
Although it is very refreshing to complain, but after all, this is just lip service, and there are countless things to do.
They all know that the only way to really relieve their anger is to defeat Feyenoord in the evening game, give Platini a slap in the face and tell him that no matter how you stumble, we are also champions!
This time it’s a real relief!
But Chen Yingxiong smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, I slept on the plane and I'm very energetic now!"
Martin O'Neill glared: "That won't work either, you need to rest for a while too!"
Seeing the head coach looking so cautious, Chen Yingxiong couldn't say anything, so he had to go to the room to rest.
He also knows that the reason why the head coach is so cautious is because he also wants to defeat Feyenoord and win the Super Cup.
Seven championships, we are about to get the second one!

Chen Yingxiong didn't really fall asleep in the room. He didn't even lie on the bed to pretend. He went directly into the copy space to conduct a simple training. He has not practiced with the whole team in the past two days. Many people are worried about his status and coordination with his teammates.
But in Chen Yingxiong's view, this is not a problem because he has a copy.
He could train with virtual Liverpool in the copy space, so he didn't actually miss a single training session. Now I am taking advantage of the opportunity of being alone in my room to warm up at the end and adjust my condition to the best for the evening game.
While I was sweating profusely in the copy, the phone rang. He quickly exited the copy, appeared next to the phone in an instant, and grabbed the receiver.
His movements were so agile that he shocked the head coach Martin O'Neill: "Why did you pick up the ball so fast, hero? Didn't you sleep?"
"I told you, boss. I don't need to rest, I'm full of energy!"
"Uh... Okay, okay. Come down now, we're going to leave after dinner."
Gerrard and Chen Yingxiong are the only ones in the team who can enjoy the wake-up call service from the head coach. But this has never happened to me before, so Chen Yingxiong was the first person.
This shows Chen Yingxiong's status in this team.
Even the head coach doesn't dare to offend him. Chen Yingxiong is the emperor of this team...
After having a simple dinner with his teammates, he took a short rest and got on the bus to the Eden Stadium.
The European Super Cup is about to start. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian. Vote for recommendation or monthly vote. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
