Chapter 611 Who Is It? [The Third Update of the Liver Explosion, Ask for a Monthly Ticket]

As in previous years, the annual FIFA awards conference is started by FIFA President Blatter on stage.

Blatter's speech was basically the same, introducing the role of FIFA and the achievements of the past year. Anyway, he said a lot of good things, and then looked forward to next year.

After the speeches, the first two youth team awards were presented. Aguero and Toni Kroos came to the stage to accept the awards respectively. The honorees were German legend Matthaus and Swiss legend Chapuisart.

The awards are interspersed with video recaps of major FIFA events from the past year, as well as opera performances.

Then came the best player of the Beach Soccer World Cup, to the Brazilian Blue.

It is worth mentioning that Barcelona won the fair play award because they refused to accept commercial shirt chest advertising, but provided it to UNICEF for free.

This is actually a very interesting thing.

Everyone knows that Barcelona's chest has always refused commercial sponsorship, but in today's highly commercialized professional football, the annual revenue of chest advertising is often more than 10 million euros. Will Barcelona not be moved?

The answer is, heartbeat, more heartfelt than anyone else.

Laporta has tried to attract investment in the chest advertising, but the result has sparked protests from fans and the media, who believe that it is detrimental to the club's traditions, so reject the chest advertising.

This incident had been noisy for a while, and then Laporta was also smart, choosing the policy of saving the country through the curve, and directly gave the shirt advertisements to UNICEF for free.

This is a kind of foreshadowing, using public service advertisements to test, so that fans and the media have nothing to say.

Everyone is very clear that when the UNICEF contract expires and the time is right, Barcelona will immediately attract investment in the advertisement of the shirt on the chest, and the opposition from the media and fans will not be so strong.

For this matter, Yang Yang has no idea, because he thinks it is normal.

Laporta's approach is indeed very clever, not only dodging media reporters and fans criticism, but also won a fair play award for Barcelona, ​​while also bringing huge potential benefits in the future.

Therefore, it is no accident that Laporta has been able to bring Barcelona out of the chaotic quagmire and bring out the achievements of the Dream Second Team in recent years. He is indeed a very powerful Barcelona president.

On the other hand, Real Madrid, after Florentino stepped down, Calderon who took over can be said to be a clown-like figure. Many things he did are really dumbfounding, plus a Mijatovic, two. People are a raccoon dog.

...

After the Fair Play Awards, the last time Sir Bobby Charlton gave his presentation, there was a standing ovation.

Because, this time Bobby Charlton presented the FIFA President's Award to the king of Pele.

Bailey was moved to tears and said a lot of words of thanks.

Yang Yang once heard someone say that after Bailey retired, he was poor for a long time, but then Nike realized the potential value of Bailey, so he signed a lifetime contract with Bailey, and tried his best to build the ball king. Gold letter sign.

So, to a certain extent, Pele has the status and influence it has today, thanks to Nike.

Of course, Nike itself has also made a huge profit from it.

Pele’s situation is not an exception. Many professional players make a lot of money while playing football, but they spend money like water, they don’t know how to invest, and they spend extravagantly. of legendary players.

Therefore, when Yang Yang sat under the stage and saw Bailey's speech on the stage, he thought more about himself.

"You said, if I retire, will I be destitute as well?" Yang Yang asked Su Ye next to him softly.

Su Ye turned his head to look at him, shook his head without thinking, and said, "No."

"why?"

"I'll take care of you then." Su Ye said naturally.

Yang Yang didn't know whether he should be moved or smiled bitterly.

...

The best men's national team was given to Argentina, and the most improved award was given to Mozambique. These are no suspense.

The two individual awards announced at the end are also the grand finale, especially the world footballer.

Marta from Brazil successfully won the title of Miss World Football. Beckenbauer presented her with the award. Marta cried when she won the award last year, and she also cried this year.

This made Yang Yang, who was sitting under the stage, somewhat nervous, and at the same time, a little emotional.

Playing football is not an easy task. From the youth training to the senior team, after being eliminated layer by layer, he stood out all the way, and finally entered the professional team, from the bench to the main force, and then climbed the ladder of the professional league, all the way. Climb, from fringe leagues to mainstream leagues, from sub-leagues to top leagues…

Along the way, I have experienced a lot and sacrificed a lot.

Seeing countless people keep falling behind and being submerged since then; also seeing countless people emerging, short-lived.

I have seen those who stand on the top of the mountain fall like meteors; I have also seen countless people become famous overnight, known to the world.

Suddenly, Yang Yang felt as if he was in a dream.

He wondered if he had been deceived?

Everything around is illusory, everything is fake, it's a dream.

Including Kaka, including Messi, including everyone in the opera house, and even Su Ye sitting beside him.

All of this is a dream imagined by oneself.

Because a few years ago, he never dared to imagine that he could achieve what he is today.

But at this moment, a warm hand grabbed him and squeezed it hard, as if to give him strength, but at the same time, it also woke him up and convinced him that it was all real, not a dream.

Turning his head, he saw Su Ye's caring and encouraging and affirming eyes, as if to say, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, whether you can get it or not, in my mind, you are the world footballer.

This made Yang Yang take a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and smiled at Su Ye.

Looking around Su Ye, he saw that Kaka, who was across from Caroline, was also very nervous. He lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly at this moment. Card must be extremely nervous now.

Yes, only one person a year!

Whoever wins this trophy will go down in football history and be remembered in history!

Who doesn't want it?

Who can say no to it?

Even Messi, who has been doomed to be impossible to get, looks very nervous at this moment, looking forward to a miracle.

What's more, the two parties Yang Yang and Kaka?

...

After the final grand prize was awarded, the atmosphere in the audience became tense.

I believe that at this moment, all the fans around the world watching the live broadcast are equally nervous.

Who will be the world footballer of the new year?

Who will be the number one player in world football?

The temperature in the opera house seemed to have risen in an instant, and many people's breathing became short of breath.

Blatter took the lead in delivering a speech, announcing the three best-performing stars, and playing video clips of Yang Yang, Kaka and Messi's games on the big screen behind him, collecting their best performances in the past year. one scene.

Yang Yang saw Messi's five consecutive matches against Getafe. Although he has watched it many times, he still finds it amazing every time he sees it, because he plays football, so he knows such goals. how hard it is.

To put it bluntly, it is not only to have strength, but also to have luck.

Didn't Getafe's former coach and current Real Madrid coach Schuster say it?

After being beaten by Messi five times in a row, he was so angry that he yelled at his players in the locker room because they made serious mistakes in their positions and did not foul in time and decisively, which gave Messi the five consecutive games. Chance.

Yang Yang also wanted to try, but he was waiting patiently for the opportunity.

He believed that as long as the opportunity came, he would definitely be able to create a feat that surpassed five people in a row.

As for the one who played Arsenal before, frankly speaking, it really doesn't count.

...

No one knew what Yang Yang was thinking at this moment.

Everyone in the Opera House was attentively watching the video highlights, enjoying the performances of three of the world's best players.

At the same time, each of them is also guessing, who will become this year's World Footballer?

Who will take this honor?

When the video highlights were played, the big screen behind Blatter immediately switched to the scene, and the reactions of Yang Yang, Kaka and Messi were played at the same time. Among them, Yang Yang and Kaka were the protagonists. Everyone knew that they These two are the last suspense tonight.

Yang Yang is a big favorite, but Kaka may not have the opportunity to create an upset, especially considering FIFA's consistent operations in the past.

Yang Yang, Kaka, and Messi all saw the big screen and found themselves being photographed. They were embarrassed. After smiling at each other, they all turned their heads and tried their best to appear calm.

Su Ye clenched Yang Yang's hand tightly, and she was supporting and encouraging Yang Yang in this way.

Following Blatter's announcement, the presenter Bailey appeared on the podium holding the World Footballer's trophy, and there was a burst of warm applause and cheers.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the opera house has become extremely tense.

Especially Yang Yang and Kaka, who were both sitting upright at this time, they were already too nervous to force themselves to calm down.

They both know each other very well that the moment the other party gets the general, they will definitely lose their temper, but they will recover quickly and send blessings to the other party as soon as possible.

But before that, they couldn't do it without being nervous.

Because this is the supreme honor for any player.

On the stage, Blatter was obviously very satisfied with the tense atmosphere on the scene, because it represented enough suspense.

So, after he smiled slightly towards the audience, he opened the envelope and took out the final list of winners.

"On behalf of FIFA, I solemnly announce that the 2007 World Footballer of the Year was awarded to..."
