Chapter 148 Unwilling to be a foil
"Hey, don't hang up the phone in a hurry, Zhuo Yang. I'll tell you the difference between our Brazilian and your Chinese girls, first of all, the ass ......."
"Okay, okay, Ronnie, I know that you fight the little poisonous dragon in all directions at night, and the Chinese newspapers are full of them. Let's talk back, I've got a call here......"
Hanging up Ronaldinho's phone, Zhuo Yang was a little helpless, this bucktooth monster couldn't say two sentences on the phone every time, and he was all like this, judging girls all over the world. It's not that Zhuo Yang pretends to be high and disdainful of talking about this, on the contrary, no man is not interested in this, but the problem is that even if Zhuo Yang has a little knowledge in this regard, he is no different from a brick compared to the king of other bucktooth nightclubs. In order not to appear to be a turtle, Zhuo Yang forcibly terminated the topic every time he was sweating profusely.
During the winter break, when Zhuo Yang was at his grandmother's house in Sichuan, Xiao Luo followed Barcelona to Shanghai, China to play a business match, and at that time he called Zhuo Yang and asked him to recommend a 'good' place. What can Zhuo Yang know? He hasn't even been to Shanghai yet. In the end, it was the interpreter of the Shanghai reception party who took Xiao Luo and a group of Barcelona prostitutes out to have a good time, and Xiao Luo in turn shouted that Zhuo Yang should come quickly, and he had a treat.
Today, Xiao Luo Tianwang called Zhuo Yang because the two of them had made an appointment to meet in Bern, Switzerland, but Zhuo Yang made an appointment.
Earlier this month, UEFA sent an invitation to Madiburg to visit UEFA headquarters in Bern, Switzerland, as they were shortlisted for the 2004 European Ballon d'Or 50-man shortlist.
Rock Dellas was shortlisted because the Greek team won the European Cup, and in order to meet the situation, a total of five players in the Greek team were selected, and the best defender of the European Championship Dellas was naturally indispensable, but in fact, everyone knew that they were just accompanying the prince to study.
As the only selected player in Asia, Zhuo Yang, don't look at his infinite scenery in the league and the League Cup, he can only be a finalist, and the Golden Ball Award will always be the private favorite of giant clubs and big-name teams.
Therefore, when he received the invitation letter at the beginning, Zhuo Yang was still very interested in going to sell his eyes, but when he figured it out later, neither he nor Derras went, so Zhuo Yang didn't want to be a foil for others as a supporting role!
However, Ronaldo did not get his wish, and the 2004 European Ballon d'Or was won by AC Milan's Ukrainian striker Andriy Shevchenko, who could only finish fourth, and he called to complain.
In fact, 2004 was the year of the famous dark horse in European football, and none of the superstars showed a dominant performance, which was not very convincing. Real Madrid's big man and the team are in chaos and sluggishness, coupled with their mutual constraints, Rao is Real Madrid's huge influence, but no one wants to be in the limelight.
The rest of the superstars are because they didn't perform well in the European Championship, after all, it's a European big year, and it needs to be somewhat convincing in this event. In this way, Shevchenko and Xiao Luo, who did not participate in the European Cup, took advantage because they did not show timidity.
In the end, the Ukrainian nuclear warhead stood at the top with the Serie A champion and the top scorer in Serie A. Speaking of which, Shevchenko has not been much better than Ronaldo, Thierry Henry, Deco or even Ballack and Andrea Pirlo in this year, and he has won the trophy not only because of his position, but also because of his background in Serie A and AC Milan.
The European Ballon d'Or is judged by senior football journalists from all over Europe, who value football itself more seriously. Although Serie A has begun to fall from the altar at this time, it still has a huge influence in the five major leagues, and European football reporters still have a strong Serie A complex. In their eyes, only the stars who have been tempered by Serie A are the real superstars, and only those who are proud in the toughest Italian leagues are qualified to be kings. If there are no stars in other leagues who have suppressed performances, if everyone is doing the same, these journalists would prefer to choose the Ballon d'Or winner from Serie A.
Coupled with AC Milan's strong influence and the co-promoters of the Serie A top three, it is not surprising that the Ballon d'Or went to Shevchenko.
Ronaldo ended up in fourth place behind Sheva, Thierry Henry and Deco, and the lack of a title in his hand this year was the main reason. The bucktooth monster is wronged, but there are people who are more wronged than him.
Prince Totti performed no worse than anyone else in this year, and he was fully qualified to compete for the Golden Ball in terms of individual ability, Totti was regarded by Real Madrid as the only choice under the superstar policy of one year a year, and in the end, it was only because of Totti's loyalty to Roma that he had to buy England Owen to the Bernabeu.
Totti suffers from the fact that he is not a top club in the club of Rome, and he has no agent, and there is no team behind him to help build momentum, and the club of Roma and the top three in northern Italy have always been at odds with each other, and have been subjected to joint suppression. So, unless Totti performs a miracle, there is not much chance of winning the Golden Ball, even if the world recognizes his ability. What's more, he had a thick phlegm in the European Championship in the summer, and while he was banned, he also dragged Italy out of the game, which is also a big stain.
Totti didn't go to Switzerland either, and it was his phone call that made Zhuo Yang finally cancel his trip to Switzerland.
"I don't think those idiots who can only play football are not qualified to let smart people like us cheer them on. You say, don't you? Zhuo Yang. ”
Although Totti's words were a little big, Zhuo Yang just felt very good. That's right, I'm just younger, and if I really want to say who's better than me, I have to play to know.
The moment he hung up the phone, Zhuo Yang heard Brassie's shout: "Franz, did you spill urine in the refrigerator again?" You idiot......"
When he played against Schalke at 04 last year, Zhuo Yang retaliated by tackling Paulsen, which attracted media criticism after the game, but Totti, who has a lot of weight in world football, stood up and stood up for Zhuo Yang, so Zhuo Yang has always been grateful to Totti. After that, Totti came to Milan for the New Year's concert "Meet Chopin", and the two officially got acquainted.
It can be seen from Totti that in today's commercialization of football, it is no longer possible to stand at the top simply to play football well, and the victory of packaging background forces is indispensable. Therefore, Totti, who is single-handed, will continue to be aggrieved, and Ronaldinho, who has Barcelona and Brazil to build momentum for him, will be awarded the 2004 World Footballer of the Year a few days later.
The World Footballer of the Year, which is voted by the head coaches and captains of the national teams around the world, is much worse in professionalism than the European Ballon d'Or, and in most cases fame can decide everything. When it comes to the fame of today's players, Xiao Luo and Xiao Bei are no one who can stand out, and the aftermath of Brazil's fourth championship in 2002 is still there, so it is natural for Xiao Luo to win the title.
Luo Yaluo Tianwang took a fierce breath of the defeat of the Golden Ball, but he has already aimed at this award for the coming year, after all, only the Golden Ball Award can prove a player's football status, and the World Footballer can only show the limelight.
Zhuo Yang called again to congratulate Xiao Luo and wished him all the best in the coming year. However, unbeknownst to both of them, UEFA did not announce it to the public, and the media did not report it, but in the 2004 Ballon d'Or, the most senior football journalist in Europe, Madiburg captain Zhuo Yang was ranked sixth in the shortlist of 50 people.
