Chapter 575: Gao Lei Lei (2)
Gao Leilei is a retired Chinese football professional, now 34 years old, who has played for Beijing Guoan and Beijing Baxi Club. Of course, compared to his rich experience, these are all small in comparison.
After seven years at Beijing Guoan in 2006, he was loaned out to the New Zealand Knights in the Australian Premier League in the second half of 2006 before his contract expired in 2007 and neither Beijing Guoan nor Gao Leilei renewed his contract.
He joined Maipa in the Finnish Premier League in 2007, becoming the first Chinese to score in the Finnish Premier League, and made his debut in the UEFA Cup against Blackburn Rovers in the same year, becoming the fifth Chinese player in history to appear in the UEFA Cup.
In 2008 he returned to the beautiful continent of Australia and joined Wellington Phoenix, formerly known as the New Zealand Knights.
In 2009, he returned to Beijing and joined the Chinese League A team Hongdeng team.
In the summer of 2009, he joined Gudibi in the Finnish Liga and continued his dream of European football.
In 2010, he joined the Minnesota Stars of the United States Major League, thus becoming the first Chinese player in the team's history.
In July 2010, Gao Leilei officially joined the Beijing Baxi team and began his journey in the Chinese League.
On March 6, 2011, Gao Lei Lei Tong Guò Weibo officially announced his retirement
It's not an exciting experience, even though it's a small league and a small team.
But it wasn't these experiences that kept his name in the 20-year chapter of Chinese professional football, but his free transfer to Maipa in the Finnish Premier League in 2007 after his contract expired, which was also the first person in China to use the Bosman Act after its enactment!!
And Gao Leilei is also a person who likes to do charity from the bottom of his heart, he is different from many people who donate money and materials. He likes to be involved in activities, such as Mabian County, where he comes almost every year. Bringing a large load of clothes, snacks and school supplies, he would go to the children's homes and talk to them about their suffering, and then find a way to solve them.
At the same time, he also plays games and football with the children.
In fact, Gao Leilei does not earn a lot of money, and his annual salary is 300,000 yuan when he plays in Finland and Australia. After the Wenchuan earthquake on May 12, he asked his mother in China to donate 150,000 yuan for him, which was almost half of his annual salary. Then it cost more than 100,000 yuan to build the tenth primary school of the Wheat Field Project, and he had already paid a deposit for a sports car, but after 5.12, he canceled the deposit for the sports car and he didn't come back, just to donate money.
After retiring, Gao Leilei opened a Japanese restaurant in Beijing, and most of the restaurant's annual profits are used by him for charity. At the same time, he also built stadiums all over the place, of course, it couldn't be that kind of gymnasium.
It's just a simple open-air court, Gao Leilei called them "21 Stadium", and Gao Leilei's number was 21 when he was playing!
Now Gao Leilei's charity focus is on his stadium, and he plans to build a stadium in remote mountainous areas for children to play football, which can not only solve the children's amateur sports life, exercise, but also bring football to the school, and at the same time let more people like football and play football.
He already valued a school in Lijiang, Yunnan, and that school also attached great importance to the construction of the stadium, and he planned to contribute 500,000 yuan, and then mobilize his friends to donate some building materials.
Valuing this school, Gao Leilei said that they did a good job in football, sending six and three to the echelons of Beijing Guoan and Shandong Luneng respectively, so he thinks that this school still has great potential.
And in terms of football, he is also very self-contained, when he was in Beijing Guoan, he was rejected by the national team because he played less football in the second half of the season, in fact, Gao Leilei's playing time was still very much before, and the table was still good, but because he did not use some things in private, he was "abandoned" by the head coach.
The later football crackdown storm also proved that if you wanted to enter the national team and play in the world, you needed to send money.
Not being able to represent the national team in the South Korea-Japan World Cup has always been an eternal pain in Gao Leilei's heart.
Li Zihan and Gao Leilei chatted more and more speculatively, and finally in the afternoon, the two simply went to Li Zihan's study together.
Coincidentally, Li Zihan's study on the itinerary is the wheat field ten elementary school built by Gao Leilei in Xiaxi Town, Mabian County.
When they came to school, the children were very happy to see Gao Leilei and wanted to play with Gao Leilei. Li Zihan handed over the things that needed to be donated to the local principal, and then joined in the game with the children.
Li Zihan has always given people the feeling that he is very mature, but it is not easy for everyone to forget that he is actually just a child, and he has only turned twenty years old this year!
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Zihan ended his trip to Mabian County and planned to return to Chengdu. After thinking about it, Li Zihan said to Gao Leilei: "In this way, you can roughly count the equipment, teaching resources, daily necessities, and sports goods that Maitian Ten Primary School is lacking now, and give me a list, and I also want to contribute to these children." ”
Gao Leilei didn't pretentiously say directly: "You please wait." Then he rushed straight into the school, and shouted the names of several people, thinking that he was going to greet the person in charge of the school, after all, they knew best.
Half an hour later, Li Zihan looked at the handwritten list with three pages of A4 paper and was a little stunned.
Gao Leilei was a little embarrassed, he obviously knew that he was a little excessive, he said: "I'm sorry, there are indeed a lot of things lacking in the school, and my own ability is still relatively limited." My current income is between 1 million and 1.5 million a year, but I spend about 800,000 yuan a year on charity. Not only this school, but I also have projects in many places in the southwest, so I am really nervous in my hands, and I finally caught a big wrong, I mean that there is finally a young talent with love and strength who wants to do good things, of course I want to fully support it. ”
Li Zihan couldn't cry or laugh, and finally handed the list to Susan behind her, telling her to arrange for someone to buy it and send it to her.
There are many names and types on the list, but they are all things for daily use, and they may add up to less than 200,000, which is really a small amount of money for Li Zihan's current income.
In the end, Li Zihan said: "My share of your annual charity is counted, if you contribute 500,000 yuan a year, I will give you 1 million." Don't get me wrong, I just don't have the time to be involved in these things, you know. So you need to run hard, I'm just paying for it, of course, once I have time and need my cooperation from you to call me, I'll definitely be there. ”
Li Zihan had asked Susan to check Gao Leilei's information before, although he didn't know Gao Leilei very well, but Gao Leilei was indeed a very famous person, and his deeds were also very easy to check, especially charity, Gao Leilei really didn't make up for it, he really did a very good job, and even in order to make every penny spent on the place where it should be spent, he even went to the building materials market to buy raw materials, and then personally supervised the construction team at the construction site.
Li Zihan had to admire from the bottom of his heart, so he was also very relieved to hand over the money to the other party, and in the future, he would invest twice the annual cost of charity at twice the cost of Gao Leilei, and at the same time, he also planned to mobilize his friends around him to participate in these things.
Gao Leilei was overjoyed, hugged Li Zihan and refused to let go. He now has a lot of things to do, such as building schools, building stadiums, buying necessities for children, and also sponsoring the tuition and living expenses of poor students, which is really a lot of expenses, so he is also very short of money now.
Gao Leilei and Li Zihan passed to the mainland outside the school, and Li Zihan turned back to Gao Leilei and said, "Brother Gao, don't send it, we have to go back to Chengdu tonight." ”
Gao Leilei was embarrassed and said embarrassedly: "Then can you plant me for a while?" ”
Li Zihan was puzzled, Gao Leilei turned out his coat pocket, and then took out the only two coins and explained: "I brought 5,000 cash to Mabian County this time, and I spent it for the children, and now there is only so much, I will calculate the cost of inviting you to eat at noon, and it may not be enough to exceed the standard." Now the bus ticket to Chengdu costs sixty-five, I don't have enough money."
Li Zihan: ""
Gao Leilei is like this, Li Zihan admires him even more, what is true love? What is true charity, and that is!!
It wasn't until many years later, when Li Zihan and Gao Leilei's charitable fund projects spread all over the world, that Li Zihan realized that he had been "pitted" by Gao Leilei.
Gao Leilei tied Li Zihan to his thief ship with a Sichuan dandan noodle snack and a glass of juice, and since then his annual expenditure on charity has been astronomical
At its peak, Li Zihan spent 300 million yuan, and his salary that year was only more than 30 million yuan (only the club's after-tax salary, excluding advertising sponsorship).
Of course, this is also Zhou Yu's willingness to beat Huang Gai!
Under the impetus of Li Zihan and Gao Leilei, Li Zihan's "Chenguang Xiwei" fund began to enter Gao Leilei's charity team to work together, oh, by the way, Gao Leilei's charity team is only Gao Leilei alone except for his friends
Many years later, when the "21&12" stadium spread all over the southwest and even the whole of China, people recalled the meeting between Li Zihan and Gao Leilei at noon that day, and they were called "the most beautiful encounter"
And the names of Li Zihan and Gao Leilei will be destined to remain in the history of the rise of Chinese football for a long time, and even many fans privately call them "the founders of the future of Chinese football"!
