137. Chapter 137

Two years later.

Zurich is very cloudy and the temperature is low, and Su Qingjia is a little uncomfortable coming here from the warm and warm Barcelona.

January 10, 2011 is just around the corner, and Carlos has one of the most anticipated days since the 23rd round of La Liga. Shen Ke booked a lakeside villa for them here in advance, with a pointed green and red roof that is very characteristic of the ancient city.

In July, FIFA reached an agreement with France Football magazine to merge the World Footballer of the Year and the Ballon d'Or into one, and the two awards will continue to retain the name "Ballon d'Or" after the merger, while the other individual awards awarded by FIFA will remain unchanged. The new Ballon d'Or is known as the FIFA Ballon d'Or, and the selection rules are to be combined: 208 well-known media outlets around the world and 208 national team managers and captains will vote for them.

The news shook the football world. These two awards are of great significance in the football world, and their combination makes this award even more precious.

The first Golden Globe Awards ceremony will be held in Zurich on the first day of 2011.

In early November, FIFA announced the 23-man shortlist for the FIFA Ballon d'Or, and the 10-man nomination for the 2010 Coach of the Year award.

Carlos came in first place in the subsequent vote with 54 percent support.

This is an overwhelming advantage, to put it down to earth - "Carlos does not win the award, and heaven will not tolerate it".

He had been waiting for the accolade long enough, and after several times of running for the Ballon d'Or, fans left comments on the FA website - "The world owes Carlos a Ballon d'Or".

The FIFA selection criteria are based on four main points: individual and team accolades received during the year, career history, player traits, personality and outstanding performances. By any measure, Carlos deserves the honor.

If he missed the Champions League in 2008 due to conspiracy, and he was too young in 2009, he should have been in 2010.

After the end of the World Cup, Carlos swept the major awards, and in the football federation statistical evaluation in December of that year, Spain captain Casillas won the World Cup Golden Ball Award because of his personal charm and outstanding strength, while Carlos won two other awards - the World Cup Rookie Award and the World Cup Golden Boot Award.

The Golden Boot has historically been awarded to the player who has scored the most goals in 64 World Cup games, mostly by strikers, and Carlos won the award as a midfielder, setting a new record for the youngest player to win the World Cup Golden Boot and the number of goals scored.

In the next two years, although the Barcelona coach changed, Carlos still won two Champions League gold cups again with the name and strength of "Barcelona's quasi-prince".

La Liga giants Barcelona, who have won the Champions League four times, have generously signed a sky-high contract with Carlos - when the contract expired in April 2010, it was publicly renewed with the media until June 2015, and Carlos's annual salary will be as high as 16 million euros, becoming the highest-paid player in football in one fell swoop.

This is the fourth time that Barcelona has modified his contract with Carlos, in which it also includes that FC Barcelona no longer has the rights to Carlos' image alone, but shares it with him.

Even in a press statement, the Barcelona general manager firmly stated to the media that "no matter how difficult the club is, we will not sell Carlos." ”

This news made Arsenal, a Premier League giants who had been depressed in recent years, innocently lie down for no other reason, Arsenal is not doing well, and it is already a well-known thing to buy and sell players for a long time.

What's more, Barcelona has been in the limelight in recent years, and it has the determination to win the Champions League five times.

It's no shy to say that half of Barca's success has come from Carlos.

Now Carlos is 22 years old, with a large number of die-hard fans and pseudo-fans, and the Coke company has directly doubled its sales with his three-year dialect. In front of people, he can be called infinitely beautiful.

Queen-

Forehead......

Su Qingjia raised his head and looked at the man who was holding her hand and walking by the river, compared with two years ago, he seemed to be only a little tougher, and when he didn't speak, he leaned on a pair of long legs and a broad chest, which really gave people a sense of security.

But-

"Bella, there are 33 days left, and we can get married, are you happy?" Carlos was content with a lollipop in his mouth. This is a rare leisure time during this time, and he is chased by the media every day to ask what he thinks about winning the Golden Globe Awards, but the award ceremony has not yet started, and the eight characters have just been skimmed, what can he say?

Su Qingjia reluctantly smiled at him: "Do you think I'm happy?" ”

The little golden hair's face stepped down, and no matter how Su Qingjia pulled it, he refused to leave, standing in place with a flat mouth and humming.

Su Qingjia didn't need to get closer, he knew what he was talking about.

"Don't you love me anymore?"

Su Qingjia: "Love." ”

"Do you dislike me?"

Su Qingjia: "Don't dislike it." ”

"But I've made my uncle angry lately, will he not allow us to get married?"

Su Qingjia: "Don't worry. ”

"I'm afraid my custom-made dress won't fit."

Su Qingjia: "You keep a good figure." ”

"Are you going to run away on your wedding day?"

Su Qingjia: "...... No. ”

"Then why didn't you answer happy when I asked you?"

Su Qingjia: "Happy." ”

"Then why are you happy that I wasn't allowed to take a shower with you last night."

Su Qingjia: "..."

Su Qingjia's face turned red, and he put the lollipop in his hand into his mouth on tiptoe, glared at him and walked back along the bridge.

Carlos felt that he was wronged, scratched his head, followed her step by step, glanced at Su Qingjia a few more times, and circled her hand into his palm. The size of their palms fits very well, Carlos has many calluses on his hands, but the palms are particularly warm, Su Qingjia's physique is cold, and his favorite thing in winter is Carlos's small stove.

"I'll warm you up." Carlos smiled sweetly, wrapped his other hand around Su Qingjia's shoulder, and then held her free hand.

The lake and mountains are beautiful, and the scenery is very beautiful, but this hugging posture is really not beautiful, but such warmth, Su Qingjia will not refuse, she glanced at the little golden retriever with rippling dimples, and walked back together.

The above conversation basically happens several times a day, and Su Qingjia reluctantly determined that she was wise and brave and known as Carlos, the Spanish football hero of Apollo on the field, cough cough, she should have suffered from premarital depression.

On February 3 this year, Su Qingjia will officially turn 20 years old, the legal age of marriage for Chinese female citizens.

For this day, Carlos had prepared a big countdown calendar book for a long time, and every morning, he would tear off a page as soon as he got up, and after laughing for a long time, he would look at the new page, and then be depressed for half a day, and so on.

Until a year ago, Carlos began a "365-day countdown" to Su Qingjia.

Su Qingjia: "......"

Recently, this condition seems to have worsened a lot, and by the time Su Qingjia found out, it was out of control. The little golden retriever can't wait to make her smaller and put it in his purse, take her wherever she goes, can't leave her for a while, she must be present to play football, and even take a shower for her, Carlos has to guard her.

Every time at this time, Su Qingjia can't wait to kick Shen Ke away, Mr. Agent is very professional, and his face is all lost in the eyes of money, and he always instills in Carlos the idea that his wife is not enough, and his wife will run, which makes Carlos more and more nervous and nervous.

However, the best way to deal with Mr. Agent is to blow his self-confidence ^_^^_^^_^ with forty-three blind date failures

There are not many solutions, as long as it works.

"Bella, in 33 days, we can turn our relationship around, are you happy?" The little golden retriever looked at her with anticipation.

Oh, here we go again!

Su Qingjia nodded sincerely: "Happy." ”

"That's good, I'm very happy." Carlos kissed her on the cheek and asked, "Bella, do you love me?" ”

Su Qingjia: "Love." ”

"Will you dislike me?"

Su Qingjia: "......"

The title FIFA Ballon d'Or Awards Day gives January 10 a different meaning.

The day has finally come under all expectations, the sky is gloomy gray, foggy, and the light-colored buildings are a little bleak, but the flashing lights and excited crowds have done a good job of decorating the place.

Zurich, a thousand-year-old city, is home to media and fans from all over the world, all of whom are loyal fans of the top three finalists, who are lined with jerseys, sneakers, pictorials, brochures or anything important to them.

Carlos was more relaxed and energetic than the rest of the players who hurried from the pitch, patiently signing his name on each souvenir with a pen.

His signature has been practiced for several years, and Carlos has lived up to his original rhetoric, to sign autographs for fans in Chinese, eh, although no one can recognize what is written now, but the victory is beautiful and smooth. Su Qingjia praised him as a "fancy signature".

The bodyguards protected him from the fans from close contact, and he wrote as he walked, Zurich in January was cold, but he was sweating all over, and his palms were all over.

He's nervous.

But he didn't come out, but even if the media said that he was 90% sure of winning the Ballon d'Or, he still had 10% of concerns.

This is the highest individual award that world football can give, and it is a prestigious name that every player dreams of from the moment he embarks on the road of professional football. It's like a country wants to win a World Cup.

As a fantastic player, he also aspires to win this award.

And before, he missed the first place every time.

This award will be an honor for a lifetime and an affirmation of a year's hard work, and a card in an envelope can change a lot of things.

To be honest, the closer the time gets, the faster his heart beats, he sweats wildly, he is more anxious than usual, he is more tired than usual, both physically and mentally.

After signing his name, he walked into the banquet hall arranged by the organizing committee, where the players, coaches, invited media, and celebrities would gather for a moment before walking the red carpet.

Carlos knew very well how crazy the excited fans were, so he got out of the car early in the morning and let Su Qingjia enter the court.

The room was well heated, and the Barcelona captain came here with his girlfriend, and he also brought a cute one-year-old boy, the captain's son.

When Carlos came in, Su Qingjia was holding the child and making him laugh, and the captain gave the little golden retriever a show-off look, then patted him on the shoulder and said in his ear: "It seems that your position is not guaranteed." My son loves Bella. ”

"But Bella likes me." Carlos dusted off his hand, strode over, expertly picked up the child, and returned it to the captain.

Obviously, it is not easy for the captain to take the baby.

Carlos gave him an evagratory look.

"It seems that you are inexperienced, so you should study hard." Carlos said lightly.

The captain raised an eyebrow, "Where did you learn that?" ”

Carlos held his head high and said proudly: "Father-to-be study class." ”

The captain stiffened for a long time before he said with a strange expression: "You...... Beira...... Pregnant? ”

Carlos shook his head and said, "No, but soon." I have to be prepared, I can't be like you, I can't even hold a child. ”

Captain: "......"

"I'll recommend one to you, it's called Daddy's Crash Course, I've audited it twice, it should be suitable for you." Carlos built another road.

Captain: "......"

Carlos ignored his constipated expression and walked around Su Qingjia's waist and followed her.

Many acquaintances came up to greet or wish their blessings, and Carlos replied succinctly with "thank you".

Carlos is the favorite to win the championship, the captain has won the Golden Globe twice in previous years, and this time the approval rate ranks third, which is basically an accompaniment, but the captain doesn't care, in his own words, "Come to comfort Carlos, a severe patient with premarital depression", of course, to the outside world, "I am honored to witness the award ceremony with two excellent players".

The red carpet is a formalized step, but it is also a necessary step, Carlos got down from the Rolls-Royce and held Su Qingjia's hand.

The award ceremony was held at the Zurich Theater, where the floating gold carvings of the theater were brought to life at night, and the elaborate lighting scene was even more beautiful.

The atmosphere was warm and grand, although the European Golden Boy Award is known as the "Golden Globe Award of the young generation", but the weight is far less than the Golden Globe Award.

Su Qingjia wore a blue long dress, and the design of the stand-up collar showed that she was graceful and slender - this was what Carlos picked for a long time, and after taking two steps on the red carpet, Carlos was unhappy, took off his coat and put it on Su Qingjia's shoulders "gentlemanly", and said "gentlemanly": "It's cold, don't catch a cold." ”

After saying that, he glared angrily at the male reporter who was staring at Su Qingjia, and walked quickly with Su Qingjia.

The unsuspecting male reporter rejoiced: Oh, Carlos is looking at me, oh......

Walking through the long red carpet and backdrop, they arrived inside the awards hall.

The hall is divided into two floors, with Carlos positioned next to the central aisle in the second row, with the second most popular German player in the back and the Barcelona captain in the fourth row.

Very cleverly arranged.

Carlos took his seat, and it was still dark on the podium, Su Qingjia patted the back of his hand with his hand and smiled at him.

Suddenly, the lights of the audience dimmed.
