[Football] Crown of Thorns

It is said that this football program on National TV is the highest-rated football live broadcast program in China (?), although Jia Ma is not sure if this rumor is true, but in short, the ratings of this football live broadcast are so high that it is true.

He did not choose to record and broadcast the interview on the TV station, but conducted it in a hotel room, which made Jia Ma feel that there is indeed a reason for Brother Xuan to become a famous host, and he is very flexible and accessible.

"Then Mr. Jia Ma, welcome to Huaguo first."

"Thank you!"

"Then tell me something first, how do you feel about Huaguo?"

"..."

Jia Ma looked back speechlessly—man, I was dragged to the hotel by you as soon as I arrived in Huaguo yesterday, if I am really a complete foreigner, what can I say, even I can't praise you as soon as I come up!

"Haha, just kidding." Brother Xuan also found out his mistake, and he used laughter to defuse the embarrassment, "Then let's talk about you, Gama, the fifth round of the European Cup qualifier Group H between Portugal and Norway that ended a few days ago The Portuguese team won the game 2-0 and overwhelmed Norway with the number of goals to become the first in the group, can you talk about your feelings?"

"How should I say it?" Because Brother Xuan asked the question in English, Jia Ma hesitated and then answered in English—the communication has always been in English before, and it is not easy for Jia Ma to directly say that I understand Chinese or something, " After the start of the qualifiers, our start was not good. The start with one draw and one loss put us in a predicament. At that time, the atmosphere in the team was a bit depressed. For me, the most important thing is that we did not play the main players. Strength, as I said in previous interviews, I am still not strong enough to play a central role,” Gama spread his hands, “At that time our captain Cristiano Ronaldo was absent due to injury, which had a great impact on us , no matter what kind of person the outside world thinks he is, but he is indeed the core of our leadership..."

"...So you have a good relationship with Ronaldo?"

"Not bad, the captain is a very nice person..."

"Hearing what you said, it feels completely different from Ronaldo in the outside media reports?"

"I personally think that people have a lot of misunderstandings about Cristiano Ronaldo. In my opinion, he is a caring, kind and caring man. He is a good person."

"Can you talk about the feeling of playing in Germany?"

"How should I put it, the most important thing is communication, language is very important..."

"...Expectations for the European Cup..."

"I hope I can win!"

………………

"What do you know about Chinese football?"

Jia Ma tilted his head, blinked his eyes, what could he say, straight up-"I know your football is revolutionizing," when he said this, Jia Ma noticed that Brother Xuan's eyes flickered, as if he was interested in him. What I said was very unexpected, and the inexplicable Jiama was a little happy. Anyway, he is now a foreigner, and the Huaguo football circle can't control him. It is related to the degree of popularization among the people. Only with a foundation can there be a wider range of choices. Of course, the most important thing is to have an environment that allows geniuses to come out, and a fair selection system..."

Listening to Jia Ma's talk, Brother Xuan really can't laugh or cry. If it weren't for the fact that the Portuguese star is an out-and-out foreigner from the information, he really doubts that Jia Ma is a Chinese. Look at the level they say This principle is like writing a political commentary, one set of one set.

"It looks like you, Jia Ma, know Hua Guo very well!"

"Of course."

Jia Ma laughed and gave a thumbs up, "I've learned it before."

Speaking of which, he used Chinese.

"Yo, that's very authentic!"

"Of course, I am Hua Guotong."

Gama grinned with his big white teeth.

Next, he began to speak with Brother Xuan in Chinese. When he spoke some epilogues, he used words so accurately and fluently that shocked Brother Xuan, the handsome photographer at the scene and others.

"...No need to say, the one you said is very good."

Although Jiama speaks Chinese with the awkward accent of a foreigner speaking Chinese, he speaks it really clearly and people can understand it completely. As one of the most difficult languages ​​in the world to learn Chinese, this makes everyone The Chinese people are very happy.

"...So, you came to China for tourism?"

"That's right, I have eaten Chinese food in Germany. It was delicious. Of course, I can't eat more because of my occupation, but they all said that Chinese food in Europe is made for us foreigners. It's not authentic, so I decided to eat it during the holidays. Come to China to enjoy authentic Chinese food."

As he spoke, Gama laughed out loud.

There was laughter in the room.

"OK, I invite you to eat roast duck."

"NONO," Jia Ma shook his finger, "I don't want to go to that restaurant that appeals to foreigners, I want to eat at the one that is said to be only for authentic old Beijingers."

This time, the laughter grew louder.

Brother Xuan's dimples were deep in his smile, "OK, no problem, I invite you to go."

"Really, your treat?"

"Of course, it's a great pleasure to have friends from afar. Our country of Hua is the most hospitable nation. I invite you!"

"Tsk, you can't eat and drink with public funds!"

Gama made a disappointed expression.

Brother Xuan slapped the table with a smile, "If I get caught, I will be suspended from my job, and this episode will not be aired."

"Alright then," Gama shrugged, "I won't make such a request in order to attract more fans."

Brother Xuan compared his thumbs, "You make sense, absolutely."

"Well, absolutely, brother!"

"Okay, brother, where else are you going, I'll take you there?"

Brother Xuan smiled very happily. A European football star who can communicate in Chinese is surprisingly proficient in the understanding here, and he is also very understanding of people and the world and easy to get along with. This is very helpful for recording the program.

But Jia Ma's answer still surprised him—"Sanlitun?"

Brother Xuan felt fortunate that he didn't drink water, otherwise it would be too much to spit out a sip of water: "Haha, brother, you came prepared!"

"Of course!"

Jia Ma smiled—everything in his previous life was gone, but he still wanted to take a look at the bar that Leizi opened in Sanlitun.

…………

Beijing Sanlitun Bar Street is one of the busiest entertainment streets in Beijing nightlife.

The night is dim, the lights are feasting, the crowds are bustling, and the hustle and bustle and luxury of the metropolis are reflected in the radiance.

Countless people hang out here, each with their own stories and their own lives, and under the bustle and bustle, there is also a void of vanity and rootlessness.

I look at the street scene like looking at flowers in the fog, and others see me as if it is real or fake.

Gamma and Kerry were walking on the street where the lights were already shining at the beginning of the night, swaying around with their hands in their pockets, scanning the street signs casually.

The photography team with a follow-up camera followed behind him. Jia Maquan pretended that these people did not exist, and looked at the growing crowd.

This street is divided into north and south districts. From the perspective of eating, drinking, entertainment, culture and leisure, the consumption level in the south district is more civilian. The bar called Wannian is in the south district, and it has been several years.

Jia Ma was a little lost in thought, then he stopped and looked up at the signboard --- delusion.

Why was it given such a name in the first place?

Jia Ma stared at the signboard——the wooden plaque was engraved with the word 'Delusion', which was an inscription written by Leizi's father's old boss, "Delusion makes mistakes, and mistakes lead to greed" selected.

Delusion produces mistakes, and mistakes lead to greed.

After greed is over, regret will always follow, but regret is irreversible, so regret is cruel.

Spend the day and drink, forget to indulge in chaotic songs, the numbness and pain brought about by the past days, don't think about it after today.

Go in, ask for a glass of lemonade, hold it in your hand and slowly rotate it, the light refracted by the glass wall is distorted, you can't see the person over there, you can't see the appearance, but Gama thought, maybe he always wanted to know Yes, that's all.

... Thank God!

Goodbye!

…………

In the scorching summer, the air in the capital is stuffy and hot, which is not good, but Jia Ma wanders in the snack street and enjoys the long-lost delicacies contentedly. Although he does not forget to control his diet, he still eats a lot more than usual What not to eat.

Then Jia Ma received a call from Brother Xuan.

"I know, I haven't forgotten."

…………

"Friends, today we have invited a special guest, No. [-] from the Portuguese national team, Gama!"

…………

Jia Ma, who exchanged phone numbers with Brother Xuan, finally finished his trip in the capital and was going back to Portugal.

Before leaving, Jia Ma was speechless, holding the CD that brother Xuan gave him, "At least give me some special products, what's the use of the CD!"

"Hey, you are really Hua Guotong," Brother Xuan laughed, "Can I give you an autographed photo?"

"Pull it down, it's too unseemly."

"Okay, okay, this is your farewell gift."

Brother Xuan sent a package of gifts.

Jia Ma is still very speechless—could folk clip art and the like count?Well, for foreigners, this counts.

"mean."

Complaining, Gama put away the presents and stretched out his hand, "Goodbye, buddy!"

"goodbye!"

…………

A complete farewell to the past!

Facing a new life, now!

This is my life.

my future……

…………

The new season is here!

The author has something to say:

PS: Jia Ma finally let go of all the past in his heart, and a new life begins!
