Godfather of national football

Chapter 487 Invited to Chinatown

After winning the championship, the Chinese team was planning to return to China immediately. After all, the Spring Festival is half a month away, and overseas players have to go back to Europe as soon as possible.

But the plan of the Chinese team to return to China was blocked by one incident. It turned out that the local Chinese in Sydney wanted to entertain the Chinese team in Chinatown through the Chinese embassy. The host was the famous Sydney Chinese family, the Guo Henian family.

Li Guo still has deep feelings for overseas Chinese. When he first went to Germany, Li Guo also got help from many Chinese. The success of the Chinese team also depends on the overseas Chinese.

The Chinese outside the sea are not only feelings but also resources. Li Guo understands it very well, so he is quite hesitant. Finally, after discussing with the players, everyone decided to go to the banquet.

The location of Sydney's Chinatown is very superior, its east is close to the City Hall, and the City Hall is connected to Queen Victoria Building, the most luxurious commercial center in Sydney.

No wonder Boss Guo wanted to send more than 10 luxury cars to pick up the Chinese team. Li Guo thought it would be good to take the team bus, but now it seems that it will definitely not work.

Luxury cars passed by one after another, and soon arrived at the hotel opened by Guo's family. Looking up, it was indeed magnificent.

There was an old man standing at the entrance of the hotel, and there were many people standing around the old man. You don't need to ask, the one in the middle must be Boss Guo.

Li Guo went up to say hello to the old man, he heard that the Guo family's ancestral home was from Guangdong, Li Guo said: "Hi Lei."

Boss Guo laughed, "Director Li is very humorous, please come in."

In the lobby on the second floor, Li Guo began to introduce his players one by one. Boss Guo didn't know much about football, but he knew the importance of the Asian Cup. He shook hands with every player, "You are great, the Chinese are all proud of you."

Li Guo felt that the other party seemed to be waiting for someone, and sure enough, many people came soon after, including the president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and even the Chinese councilors.

After all the distinguished guests arrived, the banquet finally started. Chinese people gather and eat is the most important thing. Li Guo looked at the menu, but it was all delicacies.

Mu Fei felt that gags should not be allowed on such occasions, so he whispered to Geng Chong, "I'm really not used to such occasions, it's like having a New Year's Eve dinner."

Mu Fei remembered eating New Year's Eve dinner when he was a child. There were many rules. He had to wait for a long time before eating. Geng Chong also felt unaccustomed. There are no rules for team dinners. The only rule is not to be late.

Li Guo saw the awkward looks of these all-powerful players in Asia, he thought it was funny, they were not afraid of anything, but they were afraid of eating.

Boss Guo also noticed it, "Everyone, let me say that we will eat half full first and then talk about the past, how about it?"

"Of course!" Everyone echoed.

There is another characteristic of the Chinese people, that is, as long as they drink wine, the atmosphere will be harmonious. Sure enough, after drinking wine, Mu Fei has become the same.

"Boss Guo, are you rich?"

"Hahaha," everyone laughed.

Boss Guo is also like a child at this time: "Do you have any money? Let me tell you, this restaurant belongs to me. There are more than a dozen similar restaurants in Australia. This is part of the assets of my Guo family, so brother, do you think my old Guo has money?"

Mu Fei was speechless after hearing this, "Then can I recognize you as godfather?"

Hahaha, everyone laughed even more happily, Li Guo shook his head, this Mu Fei is really good.

Boss Guo said, "I wish I could, but you have to change your surname, and you will be called Guo Fei in the future."

Mu Fei was stunned, and Geng Chong immediately called out, "Hello, Guo Fei."

"Screw you."

Boss Guo continued: "But let's be friends. When you go to Australia to play in the future, as long as you report my name, I guarantee that you will enjoy the treatment of the governor without spending a penny."

"Damn, it's so cool," Mu Fei thought to himself.

Li Guo also knew that the strength of these overseas Chinese was unfathomable after several generations of accumulation, so he did not dare to underestimate them.

"Come on, Mr. Guo, let me toast you."

"Okay, the wine directed by Li must be drunk."

Li Guo was a down-to-earth person and asked, "Old Guo, if there is anything I can do to help, just say so."

Boss Guo laughed heartily, "Director Li, you treat me as a businessman, no wonder."

After talking, Boss Guo knocked on the goblet in front of him, and there was a crisp knocking sound, and everyone fell silent.

"I wonder if everyone here is interested in listening to the old man tell stories?"

Everyone laughed, "Of course, that's our honor."

Boss Guo smiled slightly and began to talk: "My ancestors are from Guangdong. At that time, many Cantonese went abroad to seek a living. Some went to the United States, Australia, and New Zealand."

"Do you know? When you go to New Zealand, any race is free to come and go, only the Chinese are not allowed. If the Chinese want to enter New Zealand, they have to pay a poll tax of 10 pounds."

"What was the concept of 10 pounds back then? A Chinese laborer worked hard for a year and earned almost 10 pounds."

Mu Fei blurted out, "Why do you discriminate against people from China?"

Boss Guo nodded to Mu Fei, "Good question. Why?"

In fact, Boss Guo didn't say anything, but everyone understood. Boss Guo continued: "So winning the Asian Cup for the Chinese team is not only your honor, but also ours. Only when the Chinese people have face, can we have face."

Speaking of this, Boss Guo was a little excited.

Li Guo was a little ashamed, he treated a gentleman with a villain's heart, he thought Boss Guo's treat was for business and publicity, no wonder some people said that going abroad is more patriotic, Boss Guo is much more noble than himself.

The atmosphere was a bit depressing, Mu Fei interjected: "Boss Guo, if someone bullies you in the future, you should report that you are Mu Fei's friend."

Hahaha.

Boss Guo gave Mu Fei a thumbs up, "Okay, I will remember, I will remember your friend, Old Guo."

Then Boss Guo turned to Li Guo, "Director Li, old man, I have business all over Australia. If possible, how about you take your players around Australia from tomorrow?"

If it's okay, Li Guo really wants to be the governor again, but unfortunately there are still many things to come.

"Old Guo, the Spring Festival is coming soon. I have brought these children out for a long time, and their families miss them too."

In a word, Boss Guo understood, and then he gave his subordinates a wink, and his subordinates issued a VIP gold card to every Chinese player present.

"Be careful, with this card, you can eat, drink and play for free in the Guo Shi Group's industries anywhere in the world."

Mu Fei said: "Then let me thank you on behalf of everyone."

Boss Guo looked at Mu Fei and said to Li Guo: "This little guy is a talent, where did you find him?"

Li Guo chuckled and recounted the experience of finding Mu Fei.
