Chapter 68: The Christmas Dinner

At 7 p.m., everyone in the club attended the annual Christmas dinner. The dinner was attended not only by journalists from the Basque Country, but also by journalists from the Chinese newspaper "Sports Weekly" and "Football Circle", and representatives of several fan clubs in San Sebastian were also invited......

The team's recent good results, the significantly improved attendance at the stadium and the increasing sales of the club's shop have made Chairman Stephen Hawking look like a spring breeze. He gave a lot of bonuses to each member of the club, and prepared exquisite gifts for his girlfriend and wife who attended the dinner, which caused an exclamation at the dinner party, and even Agusli, who has always called Mr. Hawking Grandet, was amazed, and repeatedly emphasized to Qu Jing that this is definitely Mr. Hawking's extremely rare large-scale gesture for more than ten years.

Mr Hawking was clearly in good spirits, not only hugging and toasting everyone at the club, but also giving an enthusiastic speech: "Our team has been doing really well in recent times and the fans are happy with the team's performance. We're going to have a lot of tough opponents ahead of us, but we believe in the talent and responsibility of the players. We've been moving in the right direction and there are still very big challenges ahead, but I'm optimistic and of course it's going to take a lot of hard work. ”

Hawking's speech was met with applause and questions from the media, who said: "As we all know, European football managers have changed a lot during this period and we seem to have made a bad start [to sack Moyes]".

This caused a burst of laughter from the audience, and Hawking waved his hand and continued: "The likes of Brendan Rodgers (former Liverpool manager), Nuno (former Valencia manager), Monk (former Swansea manager), Mourinho (former Chelsea manager) have all been fired by the club, which shows that we are not the only ones, this has become a global problem. But ......"

Speaking of this, Hawking pointed at Agusley, and then continued emotionally: "Now that we have Angulo, we don't have to worry about this problem at all. Angulo has been with the team for 10 years and we are a great partner and he has always been close to the players, he knows the characteristics of each player and has always helped them improve as much as possible. It's unbelievable that we didn't realise he was the best candidate for the team, thanks to Angulo and thankful that we didn't find out too late. ”

The heartfelt statement drew a long round of applause from everyone, with almost all of the players in both the first team and the B team having worked under Agusli. Although he can be harsh and even lose his temper at times, it is certain that almost every player has been inspired by him and has benefited from it.

Qu Jing is even more grateful to Agusli, although he has not met many coaches, but Agusli's trust, encouragement and help, as well as the high degree of "freedom" on the court, make him feel like a fish in water in the game, which makes him very fortunate to meet Agusli, and sincerely grateful.

Subsequently, the "Football Circle" reporter asked about Qu Jing's performance, and Hawking replied: "Every player in the club is very important, Qu is the same, it is difficult to imagine his extraordinary performance on the pitch as a Chinese player, he subverted my perception of Chinese players, I think Qu is the same as Angulo, is a treasure of the club." ”

The timely flashing lights given by the media reporters made Qu Jing a little confused, but Bella's teasing made him even more embarrassed: "Qu, even if you always get the best player, you are still a little inferior to us, look at everyone, even Fred (Sans) has a girlfriend, and you are still a single dog." ”

"So what?"

This is also the thing that makes Qu Jing linger at the dinner party.

From the moment he arrived at the scene, he began to greet waves of shock and excitement: from the old captain Prieto to the young teammates of Team B, everyone brought a beautiful wife or girlfriend, and almost everyone was surprised when they saw that they were only alone, and the implication was obvious: You don't even have a girlfriend!

"Glory and beauty will always be a constant proposition in the football circle, otherwise I really don't know what it means to love it, which superstar is not surrounded by a group of beautiful women, this is a symbol of status. Look at Houben", Bella shrugged and pointed to the female companion he had brought, "the winner of the Mexican supermodel contest." ”

"Is this your new girlfriend?"

"Yes", and then a weird smile appeared on Bella's face, "You can also call her ex-girlfriend, because after Christmas, I'm ready to chase a beautiful American reporter".

"I'm X?!" Qu Jing turned his head to look at Hu Ben, this Mexican supermodel looks young, beautiful and energetic, should belong to the kind of goddess that many people dream of, at the moment she is chatting happily with the other members of her girlfriend group, probably not realizing that Bella will break up with her soon.

"Qu, don't make a fuss, think about Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, which one is not always changing female companions, life is short, take advantage of our scenery in the past few years to enjoy life, otherwise when we retire, these beauties will belong to the later little fresh meat players."

Looking at Bella's understatement, Qu Jing felt a burst of shock, it turned out that he always saw the news that South American players like to indulge in lust, which is really true, including Bella, there has also been news of "ZJ", and it is really not visible in the usual games and training, and once it returns to life, this is the rhythm that will be revealed immediately......

But then again, among the South American players, there are Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and the original Adriano, but aren't there also top players like Kaka and Messi who have no scandals, it can be seen that players, like others, are completely dependent on their own choices and trade-offs for many things......

However, it seems that I really should have a girlfriend, what type should I have? Do athletes have to be sexy once they become famous? It's no wonder that many people can't maintain a consistent competitive form; Prieto and his wife look affectionate, will Canales also break up with his girlfriend Christina? ……

These sudden thoughts filled his head, so much so that he didn't listen carefully to Mr. Hawking's Christmas greetings, nor did he carefully appreciate the little show that his teammates put together haphazardly, and he didn't even listen to Agusli before he asked him to return to the team on the 27th......

After the banquet, the "Football Circle" app also reported on the Real Sociedad Christmas dinner, and Qu Jing's single figure only formed a stark contrast to the other teammates who were in pairs......
