"Mark, do you know what Bitcoin is?" Zhuo Yang stared at the laptop screen and asked Mark Venster, who was lying on the sofa and scrolling Facebook with his phone.

"Bitcoin?" Mark took his eyes off his phone and looked thoughtful. "It should be similar to game point cards, website game currency, and other things, right?"

"Oh, so it's useless?" Zhuo Yang asked again.

"It's not useful to you, but if you play a game, it might be useful." Mark's eyes were already back on his phone. "But it's definitely not worth much, just like the "jīng spirit world" I played, 10 euros can be charged with 10,000 jīng spirit coins during the Christmas promotion."

"Oh......" Hearing Mark say this, Zhuo Yang was about to close the webpage, but somehow, he hesitated for a moment and read the post again. In the post, a fan from Australia wants to exchange 20,000 bitcoins for the AC Milan No. 18 jersey signed by Zhuo Yang.

After the Milan derby that day, everyone immediately dispersed, and those who could go straight to the airport with their families and those who couldn't leave would leave early the next morning. After Zhuo Yang stuffed the entire trunk of food and drink, he drove back to the quiet shore of Lake Como alone.

Tomorrow night is Christmas Eve, which will be Zhuo Yang's sixth Christmas abroad, but when you think about it, the first two are considered to be 'over'. 0 years and 0 years, they are all with the lovely Xiaoqing girl. Those fragrant roast goose, as well as the laughter of boys and girls after drinking, seem to be just yesterday, and it seems to be far, far away.

In 04, in order to prepare for the Milan New Year's concert "Meet Chopin", Christmas was spent on the piano keys of the Armani Hotel; Christmas in 05 was dragged by my sister to go to the cave for business activities in Europe and North America; Last year, I went to Plaza de Milo to stay with the staff of the brokerage company for a while.

As he said to his second brother Montolivo, Zhuo Yang stayed in the house for the past two days and did not come out of the house, and after doing his daily routine by the piano, he fell asleep, his mobile phone was muted, and he did not reply to hundreds of text messages, Q letters, and Instagram letters, and slept in a dark night.

Zhuo Yang did feel a little tired, and the schedule of the dog was the main reason. When I came to Milan, it seemed to be a notch up a notch in terms of intensity and intensity, and it was hard to imagine that playing four games in ten days would be the norm when I was in Madiburg, but here in Milan, it is a very common succession.

Zhuo Yang is also different from other teammates, he has a dual identity, Milano and Mi Yinda are busy at both ends, saying that they are visiting researchers, but in fact, what he is doing now is similar to that of a part-time teaching assistant, and occasionally he has to give classes to students.

Especially at the end of the year, all kinds of selections and various commercial activities are coming one after another, completely devouring all spare time, and superstars are not good at all. When he made money and made his hands weak, Zhuo Yang also felt that he was a spinning top at all, and he couldn't stop spinning and jumping.

Because AC Milan now owes three league games, they must find a way to make up for it as soon as possible, so the schedule after the holiday is also tight, and the team will re-concentrate in Milan in January next year, so these two days of Christmas are a rare lonely moment for Zhuo Yang, but he enjoys it so much.

Zhuo Yang flew to Vienna, Austria early in the morning after Christmas, and on New Year's Day last year, he accepted an invitation from the famous conductor Zubin Mehta to be the piano concertist of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra at the 008 New Year's Concert in Vienna's Golden Sè Hall. This time I came to do some necessary joint training in advance.

It is a great honor for Zhuo Yang to perform with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra at the New Year's Concert. And because of his status as a football star, this New Year's concert was also highly concerned by the 'secular', becoming the most well-known Kim Sè performance ever.

After Zhuo Yang got the score, he had been practicing it perfectly, and he was no stranger to several Strauss's works, and Macvenster was in charge of many off-site matters, and he was an expert in this area.

Today is the last day of 007, and all preparations are in place, just waiting for tomorrow to play in the Golden Sè Hall. After dinner, Zhuo Yang and Mark had nothing to do in the city, so they returned to the Hansen Kempinski Palace Hotel in Vienna to spend the rest of the year using the Internet.

When celebrities are bored, they like to search by their names to see what can make them happy. Zhuo Yang did the same, he searched for his name on Twitter and found this post of buying his own signed jersey with Bitcoin.

After thinking about it, Zhuo Yang felt that it was not easy to swallow it in Australia, and the jersey was not worth much to him, and there was a whole cabinet of his signed jerseys in the warehouse of Milo Square. So, he replied to the fan with one of the many public accounts of the brokerage company and agreed to the deal.

Soon, the other party also responded, and after Zhuo Yang notified the commercial duty staff of Milo Plaza, he gave the delivery information and link to the other party, and there were 20,000 bitcoins of blockchain keys in his mailbox. Of course, he doesn't know anything about it, it's the occasional behavior in his spare time, and even this mailbox is the one he doesn't use the most, the password and the email number are the same, it's the name of Saihu plus six eights.

The 20,000 bitcoins had been sleeping in Zhuo Yang's mailbox for many years, and he had almost forgotten about it, but when it reappeared, Zhuo Yang couldn't imagine that an unintentional move many years ago would have done him and China such a great favor. And the Milan 007 home No. 18 jersey has also become the most expensive piece of clothing ever.

.

In a few hours, the year 007 will be over completely, and like all other times, there will never be a return again. Lying on the bed, Zhuo Yang looked at the ceiling with wide eyes, taking stock of his passing year.

This year, the biggest regret is not to complete the Ballon d'Or hat-trick, three consecutive championships are a fate that can be met but not sought, miss this time, everything has to start all over again, I don't know if there is such luck.

However, the World Footballer of the Year finally tasted his wish, which made Zhuo Yang very happy. Although the European Ballon d'Or is more professional and more recognized within the football circle, it is undeniable that the World Footballer of the Year has a higher status and reputation in and out of the world, at least in the hearts of fans, Zhuo Yang is the No.1 among today's active players.

Zhuo Yang stepped into professional football in 00, and Ronaldo won the European Golden Ball and World Footballer of the Year awards that year. But since then, the two awards have not been combined into one. Zinedine Zidane and Nedved in 0, Ronaldo and Sheva in '04, Zhuo Yang and Ronaldo in '05, Zhuo Yang and Cannavaro in '06, and this year he and Kaka were replaced.

Generations of talented people have come out, and a generation of new people has replaced the old. Since the year when Zhuo Yang stepped on the top stage, he has become the protagonist of this old tune and new song, and he is not too old now.

By tomorrow, in fact, it can be counted as a year, as the saying goes, twenty-three, a run. Because of the high-intensity exercise in the past few years, it is estimated that it is impossible to grow taller again, but what about other aspects?

Zhuo Yang looked forward to the upcoming year 008, but at this moment, he definitely didn't realize that the next year would be a earth-shaking year for him. The year 008 was so important to him that his life, his football, his career, and his love all found a home in this year. (To be continued)
