Guardiola opened the envelope, took out a note with the name of the winner, was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glance back at FIFA President Blatter.

Blatter smiled and nodded at Guardiola.

Pep Guardiola smiled a little stiffly, showed the note in his hand to the guests, and announced that the winner of the 2010 Ballon d'Or was Gao Xiaodong, a Chinese player from Manchester United.

There was no applause, the venue fell silent in an instant, and almost no one believed the result.

About half a second later, the whole venue was lively, there were applause, singing and exclamations, but there was still no applause, everyone was talking about it, and the venue almost turned into a vegetable market.

"Gao Xiaodong, it's Gao Xiaodong!"

"God! It's Gao Xiaodong!"

"It's so unfair to Iniesta!"

"Shouldn't Harvey get it?"

"The Ballon d'Or wasn't won by a member of the World Cup winners?"

"Gao Xiaodong has never played in the World Cup at all!

"Is this a conspiracy?"

"Did the Chinese bribe the judges!"

"They like to do this kind of thing!"

"It's normal for Gao Xiaodong to win the Golden Globe Award, Gao Xiaodong's performance is very good!"

"Why can't Gao Xiaodong win the award, Xavi Iniesta is not comparable to him except for the World Cup championship!"

“……”

In the entire venue, most of the people who questioned Gao Xiaodong's award, and only a very small number of people such as Ferguson supported Gao Xiaodong's award.

At this moment, the Internet also exploded, and countless fans were shocked by such a result, they said that they could not understand such a result, they felt that such a choice did not respect tradition and law, and they were sorry for the World Cup winner.

Hearing his name, Gao Xiaodong's head was stunned, although he bought a lucky point, but he still couldn't believe that it was true, I actually snatched the Golden Ball Award from the hands of the World Cup champions.

Although Gao Xiaodong stood on the podium and couldn't hear the guests' discussions, he could see the expressions of the guests in the conference room clearly, and he could understand these people's doubts and criticisms of him.

Gao Xiaodong believes that the relatives and friends of Xavi and Iniesta must be waiting in front of the TV to watch the award ceremony with infinite expectations, and the relatives and friends of the popular Iniesta may even prepare a celebration banquet for Iniesta.

However, the two favorites ranked first and second were defeated, and Gao Xiaodong, who accompanied the prince to study, won this award, and these European and American stars on the scene must have been extremely surprised and disappointed.

The performance of the guests at the venue made Gao Xiaodong very uncomfortable, he felt that these people were overreacting, after all, he also entered the final three candidate lists, no worse than Xavi Iniesta.

Accident is an accident, Gao Xiaodong believes that he deserves the Ballon d'Or, his performance in the club last season and the first half of this season is world-class, by no means inferior to Xavi and Iniesta, and eliminated Barcelona in the Champions League, can Xavi and Iniesta overpower his efforts for a season with 7 games?

If this is the convention, then it's time to change it.

Thinking of this, Gao Xiaodong showed a smile on his face, stood up and hugged his fists to thank the guests at the scene, and then went on stage to receive the Golden Globe Award.

Seeing Guardiola shouting Gao Xiaodong's name, Gao Xiaodong's parents were pleasantly surprised.

"Xiao Dong has won the prize!"

"Is this the number one in the world?"

"That's great!"

Gao's father and mother were excited to slap the table and applaud, although they didn't understand what this Golden Globe Award meant.

Both Monkey and Xiao Le opened their mouths in surprise, and they couldn't believe it was true.

"Sister Xiaole, pinch me. The monkey said to Xiao Le.

Xiao Le muttered: "I'll pinch myself first, I think it's like a dream." ”

Ever since Guardiola called out Gao Xiaodong's name, Xavi and Iniesta were surprised, confused and aggrieved, they couldn't believe such a fact, and Iniesta even exclaimed, "What?

However, this is the truth, Gao Xiaodong is standing up from Xavi and Iniesta, walking to the podium to receive the golden ball from Pep Guardiola's hands.

Holding the glittering gold trophy, Gao Xiaodong's heart was full of joy, he lowered his head and kissed the gold ball, then raised the trophy and showed it to the audience.

At this time, the discussion disappeared, and after the shock, the guests at the scene politely gave Gao Xiaodong a round of applause that was not very warm.

The host of the scene explained in amazement: "21-year-old Xiao Donggao has become the youngest Ballon d'Or winner, he broke the record of 21 years and 4 months held by alien Ronaldo, and this is also the first Ballon d'Or winner from Asia, since 94, this is also the first player to win the Ballon d'Or in a World Cup year, Gao Xiaodong has created a miracle...... Now let's take a look at Gao Xiaodong's acceptance speech. ”

Gao Xiaodong didn't expect that he would win the award beforehand, and the use of special points was also a temporary idea, Gao Xiaodong's assistants Xiao Le and Monkey also felt that Gao Xiaodong was unlikely to win the award, so they didn't help Gao Xiaodong write an acceptance speech in advance, Gao Xiaodong could only make an impromptu speech at this time.

After thinking for a while, Gao Xiaodong said: "Thank you for your applause, to be honest, I didn't expect that I could win the award today, and it is already a great achievement to be able to come here." I know there will be doubts about my award, but even though I didn't make it to the World Cup in South Africa, I think I had a great year in 2010, where I won everything I could at Inter Milan and Manchester United and we played unbeatable. If Spain, who won the World Cup, deserves to be respected and rewarded, then Inter Milan, who won the treble, and Manchester United, who are unbeaten in the middle of the game, should also be rewarded for their efforts, so I think this award is for me and my teammates, and I want to share this award with all my teammates, my family, all my supporters and all my compatriots in China. ”

The applause at the venue became warm, and the guests were moved by Gao Xiaodong's wonderful speech, and they felt that although Gao Xiaodong's award was debatable, Gao Xiaodong's attitude was very good and humble, and from this attitude, it was also worthy of applause and encouragement.

After Gao Xiaodong spoke, FIFA President Blatter came over to congratulate Gao Xiaodong, the head of FIFA hugged Gao Xiaodong and said: "Gao, congratulations on becoming the first Golden Ball winner after the restructuring, your wonderful performance last year promoted the development of football, and your award is well deserved." ”

Gao Xiaodong expressed his gratitude to Blatter, "Thank you Chairman for your support and understanding, I will continue to work hard and strive to continue to stand here next year." ”

Blatter was stunned for a moment, this kid actually grabbed my lines, he laughed and touched Gao Xiaodong's head and said, "Well, you're still young, if you continue to play like this, I think you can win the Golden Globe Award at least three times." ”

It's only three times? Lao Tzu wanted to get a soft hand, Gao Xiaodong scolded Blatter, and returned to his seat with the golden ball.

The Golden Globe winners were announced, and the award ceremony was also over, but due to Gao Xiaodong's unexpected award, after the award ceremony, the Internet and print media raised strong questions and criticisms of the merged Golden Globe Awards, which caused a heated discussion on the selection criteria of the Golden Globe Awards.
