Chapter 600 There's a Surprise

When the private plane arrived in Paris, Yang Yang felt like a bride.

Canal+ TV specially arranged a film crew to film the scene of his arrival in Paris, and he was picked up by France, as well as media reporters from Europe and around the world, including Chinese media organizations in France.

As the first Chinese to receive the European Ballon d'Or, and also the first Asian player to receive this award, Yang Yang's every move affects the hearts of countless fans, especially in Asia.

In addition to Yang Yang's agent Mino Raiola, the person in charge of picking him up is Denis Chaumier, the deputy editor-in-chief of the French football magazine.

According to Raiola's introduction, this Frenchman has been in this position for more than ten years and has very deep qualifications.

The French football magazine has a decisive influence and status in European football, and Yang Yang dare not be careless about it.

When picking up the plane, it is inevitable to go through some procedures, such as being filmed by Canal+ TV station, and photographed by media from all over the world, etc., but due to time constraints, Yang Yang will not introduce any interviews during this period of time.

After going through the process, Xiao Mier introduced two personal bodyguards to Yang Yang, both of whom had traveled with French political leaders and had rich experience. During Yang Yang's stay in Paris, these two bodyguards would protect him every step of the way.

It was the first time for Yang Yang to enjoy such a high-standard reception, so he was not used to it.

……

"Yang, it's past fifteen o'clock, and you still have about two hours to prepare. We've already arranged a hotel and room for you. You can take a rest."

On the car heading to the hotel, Dennis Xiaomier introduced today's procedure to Yang Yang.

"About 07:30:[-], we will have a welcome car pick you up at the hotel and head to the live broadcast building of Canal+ TV station headquarters."

Yang Yang also took over a timetable from Raiola, which clearly shows all the procedures for today.

This is also a major practice of the French Football Magazine awarding the European Ballon d'Or, which is completely different from FIFA's World Player of the Year.

Due to limited funds, it is impossible to make the team as big as FIFA, and it is difficult for the influence of French football magazines to reach the level of FIFA, and it will not attract so many people.

Therefore, the award ceremony of the European Ballon d'Or has always been in cooperation with Canal+ TV station, and it is launched in the prime time of French TV station and broadcast live. On the second day, the newly published French football magazine will announce the winners and report an exclusive interview.

This is why it is difficult to have suspense in the European Golden Globe Awards every year.

Editor-in-chief Ernor went to Liverpool one week in advance for filming and interviews, just to catch up with the magazine's launch a week later.

However, the ratings of the live broadcast of Canal+ TV station are not bad every year, so the TV station also pays special attention to it.

"At [-] o'clock, we held a brief welcome ceremony in the reception hall on the basement floor of the live broadcast building."

Yang Yang noticed the time, and the location was clearly written on it, as well as the composition of the guests and the personnel at the scene.

Although the awards show is scheduled to be broadcast live at [-]:[-], the TV station will also conduct a live broadcast of the whole process, including the welcoming ceremony, and there will be several heavyweight guests at that time, including the chairman of the French Football Association, the chairman of the L'Equipe group, and the editor-in-chief of the French football magazine.

These are the usual practices of the European Golden Globe Awards Gala over the years, but the difference is that in tonight's welcome ceremony, there will be a number of British media and media reporters who came from China.

Dennis Shawmier also emphasized one point, "China's National TV Sports Channel will also broadcast the entire award show tonight. I hope you can prepare as soon as possible."

This made Yang Yang feel a little surprised.

However, it was more than [-] o'clock in France time, and it was already midnight in China, so it was not surprising that the national TV station broadcast live.

The welcome ceremony will last for about 20 minutes, and then we will go to the No. [-] live broadcast room.

At that time, there will be [-] guests, as well as media reporters from all over the world. In addition to the editor-in-chief of the French football magazine Gérard Erno, and the top executives of the sports department of Canal+ TV station, there will also be Valerie Berger, who was just elected as Miss France [-].

This is also a major feature of the European Golden Globe Awards Gala, where the newly elected Miss France is invited every year.

Football and beautiful women are undoubtedly quite eye-catching.

The entire awards show will last for one hour, and all program procedures are clearly listed on the timetable. At the same time, there are a lot of matters that Yang Yang needs to pay close attention to.

After the live broadcast, in the next half an hour, Yang Yang will accept congratulations from media reporters and fans at the scene, and then participate in the cocktail party after the award ceremony, and then Yang Yang will go to the Eiffel Tower in Paris to attend a fan meeting.

The time to return to Liverpool was scheduled for the early morning of the next day, which is why the club rented a private jet for Yang Yang.

However, what attracted Yang Yang's attention the most was Dennis Shawmier's later pretending to be inscrutable.

"Every year at the awards show, we will create some surprises for the presenters, and this year is no exception."

As for what the surprise was, Xiao Mier never mentioned it.

…………

…………

To Yang Yang's surprise, he actually had quite a few fans in Paris.

These fans had obviously inquired about everything a long time ago. When Yang Yang got out of the car, he was immediately surrounded by them.

While being flattered, Yang Yang kindly tried his best to meet the fans' request for group photos and autographs. However, the time was really limited and there were so many fans at the scene. In the end, the bodyguards and hotel security guards could only come forward to separate the fans and let Yang Yang quickly enter the hotel. However, the enthusiastic fans still stayed outside the hotel.

"Unexpectedly, I also have fans in Paris." Yang Yang said with a smile.

The chubby Raiola followed Yang Yang, as if holding his head up higher than usual.

"I think you still underestimate your own influence." The fat Italian laughed.

Yang Yang shrugged, "By the way, Mino, you should know what surprise Xiao Mier said, right?" He was very curious.

"Of course." Raiola smiled, this is still his masterpiece.

"tell me the story?"

"I've said it's a surprise, but it's not a surprise when I say it." Raiola said pretentiously.

Yang Yang almost flew out and kicked this chubby guy like a football.

When they came to the hotel room, the two bodyguards consciously stood around the door and did not follow Yang Yang and Raiola inside.

At this time, Armani's stylist had already been waiting inside for a long time.

The stylist for this year is still the same as last year for the FIFA Awards.

"Hey, Monica, sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's okay, it's my job, Yang."

Over the past period of time, Monica has communicated with Yang Yang many times about the clothing and styling of this year's FIFA Awards Conference. Not long ago, she specially brought two or three suits to Liverpool for Yang Yang to try on.

After Yang Yang chose a set from them, he measured the size for her and went to modify it.

And this time, Armani also attached great importance to Yang Yang's participation in the European Ballon d'Or Awards Gala of the French Football Magazine, and specially arranged for Monica to come over to design styles for Yang Yang.

What I'm going to wear tonight is a black suit with a white shirt. It looks very simple and clean. The purpose is to match Yang Yang's sunny and energetic image.

After all, he has just turned 21 years old, and he is at the age of youth. It would be a bit embarrassing to dress up maturely and steadily like other 30-year-old stars.

……

When Yang Yang was doing his hair and trying on styles, Raiola sat aside and talked about some things.

It's nothing more than that after winning the European Ballon d'Or, the subsequent World Footballer is basically in Yang Yang's pocket.

The Italian fat man is now very proud of his previous series of operations, because several sponsors wanted to sign Yang Yang, but they were all blocked by him before, but now, this Italian vampire who regards money as his life is looking forward to the upcoming income.

"In the razor industry, Gillette and Braun both want to sign you, as well as several Swiss watch brands, as well as glasses, video games, casual clothing, men's perfumes and toys, etc. This time, they will definitely make a lot of money."

When Raiola said these words, he really felt a little bit of fun.

The thing he is most proud of now is that he signed Yang Yang in a timely and decisive manner and became Yang Yang's agent, which has made him a lot of money so far.

"There are several other sponsorship contracts that are about to expire. If they are still interested in renewing the contract, the price will definitely not be the same." Speaking of this, Raiola shook his head and sighed again.

"I signed a five-year long-term contract with Nike. I regret it now. It was only 1000 million euros. Look at Nike's rise in recent years. It's a pity that they are cheaper."

Both Yang Yang and Monica smiled wryly at the same time.

This fat man really got into the eyes of money.

However, the advantage is that as long as there is interest, he works harder than anyone else.

…………

…………

Two hours passed quickly.

Dennis Shawmiel arrived at the hotel on time accompanied by the welcome car.

At this time, there are still many fans who have not left outside the hotel gate, and many of them are Chinese fans.

But this time the time was limited, Yang Yang could only say hello to them and leave.

Arriving on the first floor of the Canal+ TV live broadcast building on time, a group of staff from the TV station immediately surrounded them.

They either observed Yang Yang's dressing style, or introduced to him the precautions in the welcoming ceremony later, all of which were some details, such as not staying for too long, and trying to answer the interview concisely and so on.

Yang Yang is no longer the fledgling kid back then, he is now well-informed.

For such a ceremony, he is also very clear that all steps are followed according to the procedure, and the only possible accident is the surprise specially prepared for him by the organizer.

Yang Yang couldn't guess what it was, so he could only wait for the reveal.
