Upper portion; The wind and waves are calm and prosperous Chapter 29 The chief steward's banquet
Smith Lin called Kane to congratulate him as soon as he watched the live broadcast of the game. He was excited and excited, and said loudly, "Old man, now you believe me, right? Liang Qiangping is a person who can create miracles, you have to thank me well. Old fellow, you're going to have to treat me to a drink. No, there are also Chinese men. ”
Kane said, "Good! Good! Good! If you have a long beard, please at night, please at night, and you won't get drunk and go home. ”
Kane asked Liang to come to his house in the evening to meet with Smith Lin to celebrate this great hard-won victory. However, Liang had already been asked to leave in advance by Manager Chen Simin, and Kane had to drink with Smith Lin to celebrate in the evening.
Yang Bing, the secretary of Chen Simin, took Liang Qiangping to the residence of Chen in Huacheng in advance.
Liang Qiangping felt extremely honored, and never dreamed that Manager Chen would invite him to his mansion as a guest. He was nervous, afraid that he would do something wrong and say the wrong thing.
Chen Simin had a banquet with foreign guests, and he came back later. Yang Bing took Liang Qiangping to watch the beautiful scenery of begonias hanging on ice after snow in the courtyard of Manager Chen's residence.
As evening approached, the sky over Hwaseong had darkened. The snow melted, the temperature plummeted, and the wind was bitter and shivering.
Yang Bing turned on the landscape lights in the yard, and suddenly the begonia trees were shining. The red, green, and green lights of the scenery are inlaid on the begonia trees. The ice on the branches had melted most of it, and ice water was leaking out of the snow and dripping down the branches.
Liang Qiangping is accustomed to the green mountains and green waters of Jinlin, and today he can enjoy the snow scene in the north, which is a special taste!
Chen Simin hurried back to his residence after the banquet, and saw Liang Qiangping standing in the courtyard enjoying the scenery, he waved and smiled from afar: "I'm sorry, let our big hero wait for a long time!" ”
Liang Qiangping hurriedly turned his head and saw a middle-aged man walking towards him. Under the light, he walked vigorously, walked like the wind, wore a black trench coat with a wide neck, his hair was shiny and stylish, he was fifty or sixty years old, and he had a gentle and handsome face, and he smiled bowingly. He stepped forward, held Liang Qiangping's hand tightly, and said with a smile: "The night temperature in Huacheng is low, so I didn't freeze you!" ”
When they met for the first time, Liang Qiangping never thought that Chen Simin, who was in the important position of general manager, cared so much about him, which made him extremely moved. He held Chen Simin's hand tightly with both hands, and said with joy: "Thank you for your concern!" The manager has a lot of opportunities, but you are tired. ”
Chen Simin smiled and said: "I'm not tired, I'm not tired, but I make you tired of standing, go, go into the house and sit." He led Liang into the house.
Yang Bing had already arranged the wine and food, and the wife of the manager was not at home today, so he had to do it himself.
Liang Qiangping looked around for a while at the residence of the chief manager of Chen Simin, and saw that the decoration of the house was simple, the furniture and electrical appliances were practical but not luxurious, and the dignified head of a big country lived so frugally and admirably!
Chen Simin led Liang Qiangping to the dining table and sat down, and asked Secretary Yang to bring out sorghum wine, and he wanted to have a few drinks with Liang Qiangping tonight.
Liang Qiangping was flattered, how could he let the manager treat him like this!
Chen Simin was full of smiles, he poured two glasses of wine, wanted to toast Liang Qiangping with a glass, and said with a smile: "This glass of wine is to celebrate the great victory of the national football team today!" You are the number one hero. ”
Liang Qiangping didn't say polite words, and drank the wine.
Chen Simin continued: "Today, you not only saved the national football team, but also solved a big problem for me. ”
Liang Qiangping didn't know what he meant, he didn't do anything for the manager!
Chen Simin continued: "Today, Kangguo manager Lake invited me to the scene to watch the game together. He naturally knew in his heart that our Lianguo team would definitely not be able to win against the Juguo team, and wanted me to see the ugliness of the national football team! ”
Liang Qiangping listened to it, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that he was disappointed." ”
Chen Simin's expression suddenly became heavy. Liang Qiangping thought that he had said something wrong, and stopped talking for a while. Chen Simin sighed: "For many years, our Lianguo football has always been looked down upon by foreigners. The victory in today's game completely broke the curse of Lianguo football not being able to stand up. You're right, it's time for Lotus Country football to be dignified! Here, another toast! ”
Liang Biao felt the same way, if it weren't for the national football team to be respected and proud, he would not have thought of competing in the World Cup. It is not his original intention to compete for fame and fortune, but it is the duty of every son and daughter of the Lotus Kingdom to win glory for the country. If I don't stand up, who can take it!
The two raised their glasses and drank them all.
Liang Qiangping was infected by Chen Simin's feelings of worrying about the country and the people, and he said loudly: "Please rest assured, with me in Lianguo Football, I will definitely be able to stand up, and I will definitely be able to go out, so that the people who once laughed at us can laugh!" ”
Chen Simin said with joy: "Good! The motherland and the people need good men like you. ”
The two had another drink, as if they were looking for a confidant, and they hated to see each other late.
Chen Simin poured two more glasses of wine, and he was very happy tonight, and he wanted to have a good drink with Liang Qiangping. He continued: "Today is just the beginning, there are still many difficulties in the World Cup, you have to keep up the good work! ”
Liang Qiangping said: "Please rest assured, since the words have been released, we will fulfill our promise." No matter how hard it is, we have to win the World Cup! ”
Chen Simin responded: "Okay! A man has to be as heroic as you. Here, cheers! ”
After three rounds of drinking, the two were not drunk.
Chen Simin continued: "Today, you won the Juguo team, and the manager of Lake was very surprised, and at the same time very surprised. He made a 180-degree turn and invited you to visit Kangguo on the spot. I accepted his invitation on your behalf. ”
Liang Qiangping said: "Okay! Then we will go out early and see a long time, as he wishes. ”
Chen Simin's alcohol consumption is very high, and he is still not drunk after drinking more than ten glasses with Liang Qiangping. The two chatted happily, lamenting that they hated to meet late! In the end, Chen Simin held Liang Qiangping's hand and said: "I wish you success, and I will hold a grand celebration for you in the auditorium of the national government at that time, and invite Commander Huang to come out to congratulate you." ”
Liang Qiangping held Chen Simin's hand tightly and nodded confidently. That night, Chen Simin arranged for Secretary Yang to send Liang Qiangping to the Huacheng Hotel to rest.
Early the next morning, Liang Qiangping had breakfast at the hotel and prepared to go back to the national team training center. He walked out of the hotel gate, saw that the weather was clear, and took a slow walk along the road.
He called Song Xi and told him that everything was fine, don't worry, and asked her to take good care of herself, and when she had time, she would go back to Jinlin to see her.
Song Xi was very moved, it turned out that Brother Qiangping couldn't be contacted for a while because he was saving people, and all the questions were clear. She is no longer as coquettish as before, as if she grew up overnight. She is in good health and can be discharged from the hospital today.
Liang then called Smith Lin and thanked him for his great help, otherwise his World Cup dream would have been in vain!
Smith Lin was excited, and he laughed: "I knew that my great benefactor would definitely be able to create miracles, and he would definitely be able to!" Last night, Kane invited me to drink, but it's a pity that you can't come, otherwise I'll have a drink with you. Why don't you come to my house tonight and call Kane, and the three of us have another drink?" ”
Liang Qiangping smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ambassador!" I'll be happy when you and Kane are happy. When we win the World Cup, I'll treat you, and the three of us will celebrate again, what do you think? ”
Smith Lin Le smiled: "It's good! But it doesn't have to wait that long. I told Kane last night that before the New Year's Day, I would like to invite your national team to visit Qiangguo, and then you and Kane and your teammates will come to my house for the New Year's Day. ”
Liang Qiangping sighed with a heart, he is worthy of being an expert in diplomacy, and he shot too fast! He laughed and said, "Good! You are a diplomat, listen to your arrangement. But before I say it, you'll have to invite me to your ecological farm for a good visit. ”
Smith Lin responded, "Good! Deal. ”
Liang hung up the phone, thinking that just after winning a game, there was an invitation to visit foreign dignitaries immediately, is it a coincidence? I still want to explore the true strength of the Lianguo team, so as not to have a countermeasure in advance when we meet in the later World Cup matches. It seems that there is a deep meaning in this!
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly a black limousine drove towards him. The car stopped on the side of the road, and a man and a woman hurriedly got out of the car.
Liang Qiangping looked up, how could these two people be so familiar!
The man walked forward quickly and shouted excitedly, "Chinese man, I finally found you!" ”
Liang Qiangping suddenly remembered, wasn't this man the receptionist who received him and Smith Lin at the gate of the manor in the western suburbs of Hwaseong that day? Why did he come to me?
The woman had followed, and she was more agitated than the man, and cried out, "Benefactor, benefactor, have you found you, do you still recognize me?" You saved my life yesterday. ”
Liang looked at the woman carefully. Seeing that she was dressed fashionably and gorgeously, and she also wore makeup, her beautiful face was really beautiful. He remembered, was it the girl who fell into the ice yesterday? Right! That's her. Yesterday, her face was pale and haggard. It seems that she is recovering well!
The girl approached Liang Qiangping and said, "Benefactor, my name is Zheng Min." She stretched out her hands to pull Liang Qiangping's hand, but suddenly retracted it again. looked at Liang Qiangping with blank eyes, without blinking. That feeling, fantasizing that the other party can take himself into his arms and give warmth.
Liang Qiangping nodded and said, "I remembered, I saw that you looked good, as if you had changed, it was really a bit of a surprise." ”
Zheng Min smiled slightly, stood straight in place, and kept breaking his fingers with his two small hands in front of him.
Liang Qiangping asked with concern, "Do you have cold hands?" What's the matter with me? ”
Zheng Min raised his head and responded, "It's not cold." You are my lifesaver and I want to thank you. ”
Liang Qiangping smiled and said, "Seeing that the two of you are anxious, it probably took a lot of effort to find me." I'm so happy that you're so good, no thanks! ”
Zheng Min and the two of them did spend a lot of effort to find Liang Qiangping. Originally, after the game ended yesterday afternoon, Zheng Ninghai wanted to invite Liang Qiangping to the house as a guest. Unexpectedly, Liang Qiangping was picked up by Mr. Chen's secretary. Zheng Ninghai does not give up, he must invite Liang Qiangping. First, he is his daughter's savior. Second, he got his 60 million bonus in ten minutes, which must be not an ordinary person! Such a capable person, he must make friends. No, Zheng Ninghai gathered his subordinates and went out overnight to find Liang Qiangping.
Zheng Min rested all night and felt much better. Like Zheng Ninghai, she is also an anxious person, and she can't wait, and she has to go out to find a lifesaver in person.
Tang Yumei couldn't resist her, so she had to ask Zheng Ninghai's assistant Xiao Liu to accompany her out to find her.
Zheng Min seems to have a sensitive sense of smell by nature, and can smell Liang Qiangping's scent. The two of them drove a car to inspect the door of a famous hotel in Huacheng City, and happened to meet Liang Qiangping talking on the phone in a public telephone booth on the side of the road near the Huacheng Hotel, and found a correct one.
Zheng Min said: "No, help me, I must thank you!" ”
Assistant Liu said: "Mr. Zheng gave us a death order, we must find you and invite you to the house as a guest." Mr. Zheng would like to thank you in person. ”
Liang Qiangping laughed and said, "In other words, I have to get into your car today." Otherwise, you're going to lose your job? ”
Assistant Liu said with a smile: "Zheng is always a person who knows how to repay kindness, and he is also a person who values love and righteousness, he will not do this." ”
Liang Ranping laughed and said, "What a capable assistant!" If you say this, I'll accompany you on a trip. ”
Zheng Min's face was full of joy, and he pulled Liang Qiangping into the car.
