Chapter 1218: Prince Harris
This day's dinner was undoubtedly a great gain for Duan Yun.
At the Queen's dinner, Duan Yun met many scholars from various countries, and he was also familiar with several members of the British royal family.
Although the British royal family does not have much real power nowadays, and is only a façade of the British constitutional monarchy, the queen is the nominal supreme head of the country after all, and her friendship with the British royal family will undoubtedly help Duan Yun's overseas expansion plan in the future.
During the banquet, the Queen of England was busy dealing with many other guests, so she didn't talk much with Duan Yun, but the Queen's youngest son, Prince Harris, was very interested in Duan Yun, and took the initiative to chat with Duan Yun during the dinner.
In the memory of Duan Yun's previous life, he did read the news about him in the news of his previous life, this prince later served in the military and became a special soldier in the United Kingdom, and after retiring, he married a female star who married for the second time in the United States, has a high reputation in the world, and has a lot of friendship with many Western star politicians.
After chatting with Prince Harris, Duan Yun found that the youngest prince of Britain was not as old-fashioned and serious as he imagined, on the contrary, Prince Harris was a very easy-going and highly emotionally intelligent person, Duan Yun communicated with him, and did not feel the slightest estrangement, and even made Duan Yun feel that Prince Harris was very good at handover, and he also liked to listen to others.
One of the main reasons why Prince Harris is interested in Duan Yun at this banquet is that in addition to Duan Yun, the youngest of the mathematicians participating in this banquet are all thirty-five or sixteen years old, and some mathematicians are even over seventy years old.
"I've seen some of your profiles in the evening, you're a professional player now in addition to studying math?" Harris and Duan Yun chatted in the corner of the banquet room during the dinner break.
"That's right, I'm a professional footballer now. Duan Yun nodded and said.
"I feel like it's hard to do one thing well in your life, how do you do both?" Prince Harris asked with interest.
"Maybe it's because of what people often call talent. Duan Yun smiled and continued: "Actually, the main reason why I can become a professional player is because the level of football in our country is not high, so that a fan of mediocre level can become a professional player, but if I am in the UK, it is estimated that I can only be a substitute for an amateur team at this level." ”
Duan Yun is obviously very humble when he says this, he just wants to raise the level of British football, after all, Britain is a traditional football power, and the fans are also very fanatical, Duan Yun has no need to brag about his skills.
"Mr. Duan Yun, you are really too modest. Prince Harris was very happy when he heard this, and he continued: "Your level must be very high, I just heard you and my mother say that you have a high salary in the team, and you should be a very good player." ”
Prince Harris obviously has little research on advanced mathematics, so he can only choose football as a topic of communication between the two.
In fact, Prince Harris is also a real fan, he has been a regular on the school team since he was a student, and he once dreamed of becoming a real professional footballer, but in the end he was limited to being a member of the royal family, and gave up this dream as a child.
The reason why Prince Harris took the initiative to talk to Duan Yun is because of their similar age, and another very important reason is that the two are both interested in football and have a common topic.
In the final analysis, the current Prince Harris is not mature enough, and his scheming is not so heavy, although he is now in his twenties, his 'playing' heart is still relatively heavy.
"It's not about being good, it's just a profession to make a living. Duan Yun smiled slightly, and then said: "I feel that compared to your British professional players, my level is still far behind." ”
"Hehe, football is a very important sport for the UK, just like your Chinese table tennis. Prince Harris pondered for a moment, then said, "By the way, I don't know if you have time the day after tomorrow, I want to invite you to watch the game." ”
"Watching the ball?" Duan Yun was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"Well, there's a game in London on Wednesday against last Premier League champions Manchester City against a local amateur team in London, it's kind of an exhibition game, would you be interested in going to the game with me?" asked Prince Harris with a smile.
"This ...... All right. After thinking about it for a while, Duan Yun quickly agreed.
The main reason why Duan Yun accepted Prince Harris's invitation was that the other party was a member of the royal family after all, and Duan Yun was not easy to refuse, and according to the schedule of the World Congress of Mathematicians, Duan Yun had no other tasks in addition to the routine report at the opening ceremony on the first day, and he could choose to listen to lectures at various venues, but now Duan Yun is a god-level mathematician, and he no longer needs to learn other mathematical knowledge, so he can arrange the activities for the remaining days at will.
In addition, although Duan Yun is now a master football player, most of the competitions he has participated in have been domestic leagues, even if the level of competition such as the Asian Cup is not high, and now that he can watch the games of traditional European giants, he will naturally not let go of this opportunity.
"Very good. When Prince Harris heard this, he smiled with satisfaction.
"But I'm a little curious, as far as I know, Manchester United is a giant team in the whole world, and the amateur team will definitely lose badly against Manchester United, right?" Duan Yun asked with a frown.
"It doesn't matter if you win or lose, because it's just a charity exhibition game, it's kind of a tradition. Prince Harris smiled and said, "Last year's game was also against these two teams, and the score was 17-0, so you don't have to expect any miracles in this game." ”
"Hahaha, I see. Duan Yun laughed when he heard this.
"The most important thing is that we can also play with the amateur team. Prince Harris said suddenly.
"Huh?" Duan Yun was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"In addition to me, there are many local and foreign celebrities in London who will also participate in this charity competition, and it doesn't matter if they win or lose, a lot of people just want to see the celebrities. Prince Harris said this, with a flash of excitement in his eyes, and continued, "This is the only time I have played with a professional team in a year......
