Chapter 168 Paris, the stars shine!
On the morning of November 11th, in the restaurant of the hotel, Chen Xiaoliang was dumbfounded as soon as he entered.
He tried his best to restrain his shock and nervousness, and tried his best to appear relaxed.
Lewandowski, Suarez, Benzema, Cannavaro, Xavi, Kaka, Rivaldo, Kante, Jorginho…
At the Maison Villeroy, one of the most expensive hotels in Paris, on the banks of the Seine, the brilliance of these world superstars together overshadows any surrounding luxury and expensive decorations.
Seeing these long-established players taking meals and greeting each other, Chen Xiaoliang lost his mind for a while.
He doesn't know anyone... I don't know if those people know him...
When he was hesitating how to chat with these superstars, a voice sounded behind him:
"Hey, is that Chen?"
Chen Xiaoliang looked back, oops!A big black bald head, no one knows this guy who plays football!The legendary striker Didier Drogba who played in Donghai Shenhua for less than a season!
"You... hello!" Chen Xiaoliang hurriedly greeted.
"Congratulations!" Didier Drogba stretched out his hand and shook hands with Chen Xiaoliang.
"Ah?" Chen Xiaoliang looked blank, why did he congratulate me?
Drogba pulled him aside: "The results of the selection came out the day before yesterday. If I hadn't met you here, I would have made a special trip to find you. Congratulations in advance for winning this year's Copa Award! Well done!"
hum!
Chen Xiaoliang only felt his blood surge and his ears were ringing, but he quickly calmed down.
What does this have to do with Drogba?Why did he just talk about it when I met him by chance?However, no one from the organizers contacted him.
Andy Lau in Africa likes to joke and joke with young players and team staff in private.
"This... why did you come to tell me this, senior?"
"Huh?" Seeing that Chen Xiaoliang was really unaware, Drogba explained that he was invited by "French Football" to serve as the host for the second time tonight after two years after the awards ceremony in 2019. His partner is Sandy Heribert, a well-known French female journalist.
According to traditional practice, the winners will be notified in advance about the day before the awards, in order to prepare for the release of acceptance speeches.
Chen Xiaoliang was pleasantly surprised, but he still couldn't believe it!
This... just won the award?
Copa Award? !
Chatelet? !
"French Football"? !
After breakfast, Kaka saw Drogba and Chen Xiaoliang when he walked to the door of the restaurant. He came up to greet them and hugged Chen Xiaoliang very friendly.
Kaka actually knew me? !
Chen Xiaoliang couldn't believe that Melo, the last Golden Globe winner before he dominated the football world, knew himself!
The 39-year-old Kaka, who is still handsome and unrestrained, laughed:
"I have a friend from the Red Country who also met in Paris. When he met me, he said that he and you are also good friends."
"Who...?" Chen Xiaoliang wondered, which player from the Red Country could meet a superstar like Kaka in Europe?
Kaka took out his mobile phone and showed Chen Xiaoliang a video. Now, even Didier Drogba laughed out loud.
In the video, I saw Kaka signing his own jersey with a pen, then raised his head and said to the camera: "HELLO, Wang Tao!"
What the hell!
It turned out to be that guy Wang Tao!The autographed jersey was sold to Kaka!
The jokes of the three attracted the attention of others.
Apparently the news of Chen Xiaoliang's award had spread among the participants of the ceremony.
After a while, many people gathered around and congratulated Chen Xiaoliang one after another.
According to the different personalities of each person, some people are more unrestrained, such as Suarez, Chen Xiaoliang looked at his bloody mouth when he laughed, and was always afraid that he would bite him;
Some people were more reserved, such as Kanter, who just shook hands, smiled innocently like a shy big boy, exchanged contact information and left.
But Chen Xiaoliang was moved and shocked by the unassuming and approachable appearance of these superstars!
Seeing his bewildered look, Drogba took the initiative to pinch his shoulders with both hands and kneaded him a few times.
"Relax, relax, boy. This is not a green field, there are no opponents. We are all football people whether we are active or retired. Only if we work together can this game thrive forever and spread to every corner of the earth. "
Awesome!Capitalized awesome!
He remembered that this African footballer is not only a football player, but also a fighter from Côte d'Ivoire.
He once persuaded the President of Côte d'Ivoire to play the first national team friendly match in 2005 in Bouquet, a city occupied by the anti-government forces, where he led his teammates to a 5-0 victory over Madagascar.
The result of the game itself was not important, but he met the leader of the anti-government army alone without hesitation after the game, and gave him a jersey with his name on it and sneakers with peace engraved on it.
In the following years, he has been shuttled among the gunfire for the peace of Côte d'Ivoire.
This is a real legend who has already surpassed the outcome of competitive sports!
"Okay senior, I must prepare well!"
"Hurry up and eat, let's go!" Drogba enthusiastically pulled Chen Xiaoliang into the restaurant.
During the meal, many stars who came one after another and learned the results of the selection came to say hello to Chen Xiaoliang, and he responded respectfully one by one.
Compared with these famous stars or retired legends, I am just a rookie.
If it wasn't for the opportunity of this awards ceremony, these people would be great gods that he can only look up to in the video!
It's too dreamy, it's really too dreamy, no wonder Mourinho told him not to rush into the next league game against Bologna, but to enjoy the process of this awards ceremony.
He remembered a sentence that Yao Ming, the basketball legend of the Red Country, once said in an interview with the media, to the effect:
"Before I went to the NBA, those players seemed like untouchable myths, but after I went to the NBA, I found that many of them are just like that. They are also human beings, and I have the strength to compete with them."
He couldn't help but think of the Manchester United star B Fee who is worth 8000 million euros, the Manchester United star who was also selected for the Golden Boy Award and the Copa Award like himself, Greenwood who is worth 5000 million euros, and Tottenham's top British player Harry who is worth 9000 million euros Kane.
There are also three-time Serie A Golden Boot winner Immobile, the blockbuster Chiesa in the European Cup, and the 40-year-old legend Ibrahimovic who has not yet retired.
After actually playing against these people, he also understands that he is fully capable of competing with them and helping the team beat them.
It's just that the sudden good news was too unexpected. He originally expected to be able to win the second place in the Copa Awards. In his mind, compared to the third place deliberately manipulated by the Golden Boy Award, the second place should be a more objective one. ranking.
After all, I don't have the halo of a wealthy family like Barcelona, nor do I have the stage of a big competition like the Spanish national team.
After eating breakfast without taste, he returned to the room in a daze.
Maison Villeroy, a top-notch hotel, is different from business hotels or general resort hotels. It pays great attention to creating a home feeling for guests. The hotel suites are also large suites with multiple bedrooms and multiple bathrooms like family houses.
So Helena and sisters Erica, Reese, and David each had a bedroom and lived together in the same large suite.
When Chen Xiaoliang returned to the room, she simply dressed up and was looking at the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower outside the big balcony. The sisters were waiting for Chen Xiaoliang to come back and go out for a stroll.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Chen Xiaoliang pinched his face to make sure he wasn't dreaming, and asked:
"Have you had breakfast?"
"Eat it, what's the matter?"
"Have you... seen those stars?"
"See, what's the matter? The two of us still eat with Hummels." Erica said, she is a part-time fitness coach in Dortmund, and she also co-produced a training video with Hummels, which is available on YouTube. Millions of plays.
Chen Xiaoliang thought to himself: Ma De, socially obsessed people can't be offended...
"I…"
"What's the matter?"
"Drogba, the host of the evening ceremony, told me that I have won the prize."
……
"Really?" Helena grabbed Chen Xiaoliang's arm and asked.
Chen Xiaoliang nodded.
……
"Oh!!!"
"yeah!!!"
After a brief silence, the sisters let out excited cheers!Hugging Chen Xiaoliang from left to right, jumping and jumping!
Riise and David, who had already heard the movement at the door, also came out, embracing and raising their arms to celebrate!
David opened a bottle of champagne on the bar counter. At this time, he, a bodyguard who usually doesn't drink alcohol, didn't care about any professional norms. He poured a bottle of champagne for himself and everyone in the room with his red eyes. a glass of wine.
Riise shouted excitedly: "Let's toast together, for the trophy! For our contribution!"
"cheers!!!"
After the excitement calmed down a bit, Chen Xiaoliang made a video call with his parents far away in the East China Sea and told them the good news.
Chen's father encouraged him to continue to work hard and pay attention to his health so as not to get hurt.
And Chen's mother didn't know what the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony meant. She searched thousands of times for a long time, and then asked Chen's father in surprise:
"Why did my son go to the United States to make a movie again?"
...
Chen Xiaoliang originally wanted to go out for lunch with his friends to relax, but the staff of the Golden Globe Awards organizer came to find him soon.
As the highest individual honor awards ceremony held in football since 1956, the on-site process ceremony and dress code have strict requirements.
As one of the winners in the evening, the staff confirmed with Chen Xiaoliang in detail one by one the seating arrangements for him and his partners, the route on stage when he received the award, the time limit for speeches, and the "accompanying" that the host will share with him. sex” interactive content.
And after the awards ceremony, there will be a celebratory reception at the hotel.
Every item has videos and pictures on the PAD held by the staff, and they are shown to Chen Xiaoliang one by one.
After all these were confirmed and memorized, the staff left, and it was already afternoon.
Looking at the fans, media, and security guards who were swarming outside the hotel, they gave up the idea of going out to eat, and ordered some food in the hotel to deal with it casually.
Starting at 5 p.m., the Paris city government began to close roads.
From the Maison Villeroy Hotel to the Chatelet Theater, all roads along the Seine are closed to outsiders and vehicles.
The staff began to remind those involved in the award ceremony to go to the restaurant for dinner in advance.
At 6:[-], a makeup artist specially hired by the organizer came to Chen Xiaoliang's door with a makeup box to do makeup for Chen Xiaoliang.
Watching the beautiful makeup artist constantly fiddle with Chen Xiaoliang's face and hair, put on a dress and bow tie, he looks like a groom who is about to attend a wedding, while the sisters who have already dressed up are standing aside and giving suggestions , David gasped in admiration.
"To be able to live like this, surrounded by two beauties, this life is worth it."
Riise is in a good mood today. Hearing what David said, he pulled him aside and said secretly: "Let the three of them go to the ceremony reception to relax tonight, and let's go to Pigalle to relax."
David was elated.
How many men in Europe do not know the Pigalle neighborhood in Paris?Even Rome's eighth arrondissement pales in comparison.
Only Hamburg in Germany and Amsterdam in the Netherlands are better.
Starting at 7 o'clock, all the guests staying at the Maison Villeroy Hotel took the limousine arranged by the organizer to Chatelet Theater.
There are also many football stars, club presidents and sports celebrities who are arranged in other luxury hotels, and they also come here by car from nearby.
In addition to the driver, the two participants shared a car, and Chen Xiaoliang was in the same car as the candidate for the Kopa Award, Dortmund's talented midfielder and Englishman Bellingham.
Relatives and friends such as Riise will be transported in a unified luxury bus at a later time.
"Congratulations." Bellingham got into the car and sat down straight to the point.
"Pedri is a monster. I really didn't expect you to beat him with your incredible performance recently. It's not easy. I don't mean anything else. I'm just happy for you. Congratulations again."
Originally, the distance was only 1 kilometer, and Chen Xiaoliang and Bellingham arrived at their destination before exchanging contact information.
A long line of limousine cars was queuing up, and when the guests on the previous car got off and walked to the end of the red carpet to enter the theater, the handsome waiter in a tuxedo opened the door of the next car to let the two guests On the red carpet.
Pay attention.
When they arrived at Chen Xiaoliang's car, they got out of the car from both sides of the car. He and Bellingham exchanged some politeness with each other. In the end, Bellingham, who was slightly older and famous earlier, walked ahead.
Seeing the two people approaching, the cameras on both sides of the red carpet suddenly turned around to take pictures of them frantically, and a female reporter continued to yell at the two: "Look here! Please look here!" to attract their attention with shouts, thus Take the best angled red carpet photos.
The red carpet of more than 20 meters walked for more than two minutes. Because Chen Xiaoliang was selected this time, the official media of the Red Country sent a group of reporters to live broadcast the awards ceremony.
In the past, except for the sports channel, the official media basically didn't report on this kind of activity that had nothing to do with the Red Country, or it just mentioned it in one sentence.
"Xiao Liang! Xiao Liang!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice shouted from the crowd.
Chen Xiaoliang followed the voice, and it turned out to be Wang Tao and Qing Shu!
He walked over immediately, with a look of surprise on his face, but after looking at the press cards on their chests, he realized that they were here to interview on behalf of Penguin Sports.
Seeing the movement, the surrounding reporters immediately turned the camera to shoot, while the staff politely urged Chen Xiaoliang to enter the theater as soon as possible, after all, the guests in the car behind were still waiting to walk on the red carpet.
"Xiao Liang, leave this dress to me!" Wang Tao didn't say a word for the interview, only thinking about Chen Xiaoliang's clothes.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you."
Chen Xiaoliang smiled helplessly, waved goodbye to them, and walked to the theater.
At this time, it was still early before the official start of the ceremony. Walking into the waiting hall of the theater, Chen Xiaoliang was shocked again!
By the stairs in the distance, Messi, Suarez, Pedri, and Mbappe are talking!
This is the first time he has seen Messi with his own eyes!
Almost all the players and guests walked by him and said hello to the superstar who is about to win his seventh Ballon d'Or.
On the other side, Roberto Baggio, Cannavaro, Donnarumma, Jorginho and other Italians were chatting together.
Near them, Germans such as Rummenigge, Sammer, Matthaus, Kahn, Neuer and others gathered together.
There are also Shevchenko, Kaka, Van Basten, Ronaldo, and the AC Milan elders of Cafu;
The Premier League circle of Kevin Keegan, Michael Owen, Salah, De Bruyne, Greenwood, and Bellingham, who entered a little earlier than himself, also joined them.
This…
When Chen Xiaoliang was looking for someone he knew, a big hand rested on his shoulder.
"Boss!"
Chen Xiaoliang was very excited!Hug that person immediately!
"Boss! It's great of you to come!"
Gerrard seems to be under a lot of pressure, and after four months of absence, there are many fine lines on his forehead and eyebrows.
"I didn't want to come. There will be a league game in two days, but I heard that you won the award this time, so I have to come here! Haha! I'm so happy for you!"
"Brother Xiaoliang..." A delicate voice made Chen Xiaoliang's chrysanthemum tighten.
He almost forgot that, except for work, Gerald would take this precious eldest daughter with him wherever he went.
"Hi, Lily, long time no see."
"Boy, I'm going to say hello to Owen, and you can chat with Lily!"
After Gerrard finished speaking, he walked away, leaving only Chen Xiaoliang and Lily...
It's also been a few months since I saw him. Compared with his slightly old and tired father, Lily looks more mature.The two chatted awkwardly for a while, Chen Xiaoliang took advantage of Gerrard's presence, and took the initiative to pull Lily to join the chat in the Premier League circle.
As soon as he saw him, De Bruyne became interested, and after a few pleasantries, he pulled him to talk a lot about how good Manchester City is, how good Guardiola is, who they are going to buy next year, and now there is a shortage of midfielders. , I hope he can seriously consider it, money is not a problem...
He was talking, when suddenly his face turned livid, and he turned his head to look away.
Chen Xiaoliang saw that it was Courtois and his Real Madrid teammate Vinicius who entered the theater...
In short, under the recommendation of Gerrard, Chen Xiaoliang met many big shots.
At 8:15, the staff began to invite the guests to sit.
Chen Xiaoliang is the second from the far left in the middle of the first row. To his left is Bellingham, and to his right is a beautiful woman in a black dress.
Chen Xiaoliang didn't know who she was at all, but he thought that to be able to sit in the first row must be a great person.
"Hello, Xiaosheng Chen Xiaoliang, I'm sorry, I can't speak Chinese, and my English is so-so."
"Hello, I...you can speak your native language, I might understand..."
"Oh? Really?" The woman's eyes lit up and she blurted out a sentence in Spanish.
【dong dong dong】
[Host language difficulty detected]
【System Language Pack (Spain) Unlocked】
"Yes, I have studied Spanish, it's an honor to meet you."
Chen Xiaoliang was calm on the surface, speaking Spanish with a pure accent, but in private, he secretly pushed Bellingham with his left arm, then turned his head and asked softly, "Brother, who is this, I don't know..."
Bellingham took a look: "I...I don't know..."
The woman couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing as she watched the two children going back and forth.
"My name is Alexia Putras and I'm from Barcelona."
Putras officially introduced himself to the two of them.
Chen Xiaoliang heard the name before, and hurriedly said: "Of course I know you, you are the Miss World Football selected by FIFA in 2021! You are not only the captain of the Barcelona women's football team, but also the captain of the Spanish women's football team!
It's just that I didn't expect to see you with my own eyes...compared to the photos...this..."
Chen Xiaoliang pretended to be at a loss for words.
Putras looked at himself, and asked worriedly, "Is there something wrong?"
"No, no, it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful lady up close."
Putras blushed suddenly!
Bellingham couldn't understand Spanish and couldn't make out what the two of them were talking about.
But suddenly someone in the back row applauded.
Chen Xiaoliang and Putras looked back and saw Benzema and Courtois sitting behind them!
Although neither of them is Spanish, they have lived in Madrid for many years and have long been proficient in Spanish.
Benzema first greeted Putras in a gentlemanly manner, and then shook hands with Chen Xiaoliang: "I've always heard that you are a genius. In the past, I was a little skeptical, but today I believe it! You are definitely a big genius !"
Saying that, Benzema pointed to Courtois, "You know what? He's also a genius."
Courtois smiled helplessly and ignored Benzema.
How could Chen Xiaoliang not know that just now De Bruyne turned his back to Courtois with a stern face, wasn't it because of the green hat incident that year!
At this time, all the guests in the venue were seated, the lights suddenly dimmed, and the spotlight on the stage came on. The female reporter Sandy Heribert walked to the center of the stage holding Drogba's arm.
Next to them is a cup holder, on which the Golden Globe Award, which looks shining under the lights, is already there!
On November 2021, 11, at 30:8 pm Paris time, the most important moment of glory in world football has begun!
Thanks to the club director [Student Li Yili] for the monthly pass!
Thanks to the club director [Sister with an umbrella is as stable as poi] for the monthly pass!
Thanks to the club director [Changtian KnifeT] for the monthly pass!
Thanks to the club director [book friend 20201208142931211] for the monthly pass!
Thanks to the club director [Yiyang 233] for the monthly pass!
These are all directors who have supported me for a long time. Thanks again.

Starting at 7 o'clock, all the guests staying at the Maison Villeroy Hotel took the limousine arranged by the organizer to Chatelet Theater.
There are also many football stars, club presidents and sports celebrities who are arranged in other luxury hotels, and they also come here by car from nearby.
In addition to the driver, the two participants shared a car, and Chen Xiaoliang was in the same car as the candidate for the Kopa Award, Dortmund's talented midfielder and Englishman Bellingham.
Relatives and friends such as Riise will be transported in a unified luxury bus at a later time.
"Congratulations." Bellingham got into the car and sat down straight to the point.
"Pedri is a monster. I really didn't expect you to beat him with your incredible performance recently. It's not easy. I don't mean anything else. I'm just happy for you. Congratulations again."
Originally, the distance was only 1 kilometer, and Chen Xiaoliang and Bellingham arrived at their destination before exchanging contact information.
A long line of limousine cars was queuing up, and when the guests on the previous car got off and walked to the end of the red carpet to enter the theater, the handsome waiter in a tuxedo opened the door of the next car to let the two guests On the red carpet.
Pay attention.
When they arrived at Chen Xiaoliang's car, they got out of the car from both sides of the car. He and Bellingham exchanged some politeness with each other. In the end, Bellingham, who was slightly older and famous earlier, walked ahead.
Seeing the two people approaching, the cameras on both sides of the red carpet suddenly turned around to take pictures of them frantically, and a female reporter continued to yell at the two: "Look here! Please look here!" to attract their attention with shouts, thus Take the best angled red carpet photos.
The red carpet of more than 20 meters walked for more than two minutes. Because Chen Xiaoliang was selected this time, the official media of the Red Country sent a group of reporters to live broadcast the awards ceremony.
In the past, except for the sports channel, the official media basically didn't report on this kind of activity that had nothing to do with the Red Country, or it just mentioned it in one sentence.
"Xiao Liang! Xiao Liang!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice shouted from the crowd.
Chen Xiaoliang followed the voice, and it turned out to be Wang Tao and Qing Shu!
He walked over immediately, with a look of surprise on his face, but after looking at the press cards on their chests, he realized that they were here to interview on behalf of Penguin Sports.
Seeing the movement, the surrounding reporters immediately turned the camera to shoot, while the staff politely urged Chen Xiaoliang to enter the theater as soon as possible, after all, the guests in the car behind were still waiting to walk on the red carpet.
"Xiao Liang, leave this dress to me!" Wang Tao didn't say a word for the interview, only thinking about Chen Xiaoliang's clothes.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you."
Chen Xiaoliang smiled helplessly, waved goodbye to them, and walked to the theater.
At this time, it was still early before the official start of the ceremony. Walking into the waiting hall of the theater, Chen Xiaoliang was shocked again!
By the stairs in the distance, Messi, Suarez, Pedri, and Mbappe are talking!
This is the first time he has seen Messi with his own eyes!
Almost all the players and guests walked by him and said hello to the superstar who is about to win his seventh Ballon d'Or.
On the other side, Roberto Baggio, Cannavaro, Donnarumma, Jorginho and other Italians were chatting together.
Near them, Germans such as Rummenigge, Sammer, Matthaus, Kahn, Neuer and others gathered together.
There are also Shevchenko, Kaka, Van Basten, Ronaldo, and the AC Milan elders of Cafu;
The Premier League circle of Kevin Keegan, Michael Owen, Salah, De Bruyne, Greenwood, and Bellingham, who entered a little earlier than himself, also joined them.
This…
When Chen Xiaoliang was looking for someone he knew, a big hand rested on his shoulder.
"Boss!"
Chen Xiaoliang was very excited!Hug that person immediately!
"Boss! It's great of you to come!"
Gerrard seems to be under a lot of pressure, and after four months of absence, there are many fine lines on his forehead and eyebrows.
"I didn't want to come. There will be a league game in two days, but I heard that you won the award this time, so I have to come here! Haha! I'm so happy for you!"
"Brother Xiaoliang..." A delicate voice made Chen Xiaoliang's chrysanthemum tighten.
He almost forgot that, except for work, Gerald would take this precious eldest daughter with him wherever he went.
"Hi, Lily, long time no see."
"Boy, I'm going to say hello to Owen, and you can chat with Lily!"
After Gerrard finished speaking, he walked away, leaving only Chen Xiaoliang and Lily...
It's also been a few months since I saw him. Compared with his slightly old and tired father, Lily looks more mature.The two chatted awkwardly for a while, Chen Xiaoliang took advantage of Gerrard's presence, and took the initiative to pull Lily to join the chat in the Premier League circle.
As soon as he saw him, De Bruyne became interested, and after a few pleasantries, he pulled him to talk a lot about how good Manchester City is, how good Guardiola is, who they are going to buy next year, and now there is a shortage of midfielders. , I hope he can seriously consider it, money is not a problem...
He was talking, when suddenly his face turned livid, and he turned his head to look away.
Chen Xiaoliang saw that it was Courtois and his Real Madrid teammate Vinicius who entered the theater...
In short, under the recommendation of Gerrard, Chen Xiaoliang met many big shots.
At 8:15, the staff began to invite the guests to sit.
Chen Xiaoliang is the second from the far left in the middle of the first row. To his left is Bellingham, and to his right is a beautiful woman in a black dress.
Chen Xiaoliang didn't know who she was at all, but he thought that to be able to sit in the first row must be a great person.
"Hello, Xiaosheng Chen Xiaoliang, I'm sorry, I can't speak Chinese, and my English is so-so."
"Hello, I...you can speak your native language, I might understand..."
"Oh? Really?" The woman's eyes lit up and she blurted out a sentence in Spanish.
【dong dong dong】

【System Language Pack (Spain) Unlocked】
"Yes, I have studied Spanish, it's an honor to meet you."
Chen Xiaoliang was calm on the surface, speaking Spanish with a pure accent, but in private, he secretly pushed Bellingham with his left arm, then turned his head and asked softly, "Brother, who is this, I don't know..."
Bellingham took a look: "I...I don't know..."
The woman couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing as she watched the two children going back and forth.
"My name is Alexia Putras and I'm from Barcelona."
Putras officially introduced himself to the two of them.
Chen Xiaoliang heard the name before, and hurriedly said: "Of course I know you, you are the Miss World Football selected by FIFA in 2021! You are not only the captain of the Barcelona women's football team, but also the captain of the Spanish women's football team!
It's just that I didn't expect to see you with my own eyes...compared to the photos...this..."
Chen Xiaoliang pretended to be at a loss for words.
Putras looked at himself, and asked worriedly, "Is there something wrong?"
"No, no, it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful lady up close."
Putras blushed suddenly!
Bellingham couldn't understand Spanish and couldn't make out what the two of them were talking about.
But suddenly someone in the back row applauded.
Chen Xiaoliang and Putras looked back and saw Benzema and Courtois sitting behind them!
Although neither of them is Spanish, they have lived in Madrid for many years and have long been proficient in Spanish.
Benzema first greeted Putras in a gentlemanly manner, and then shook hands with Chen Xiaoliang: "I've always heard that you are a genius. In the past, I was a little skeptical, but today I believe it! You are definitely a big genius !"
Saying that, Benzema pointed to Courtois, "You know what? He's also a genius."
Courtois smiled helplessly and ignored Benzema.
How could Chen Xiaoliang not know that just now De Bruyne turned his back to Courtois with a stern face, wasn't it because of the green hat incident that year!
At this time, all the guests in the venue were seated, the lights suddenly dimmed, and the spotlight on the stage came on. The female reporter Sandy Heribert walked to the center of the stage holding Drogba's arm.
Next to them is a cup holder, on which the Golden Globe Award, which looks shining under the lights, is already there!
On November 2021, 11, at 30:8 pm Paris time, the most important moment of glory in world football has begun!
