Fame with a ball

John Elchin was in a bad mood.

He came to Brazil on vacation with Lin, but now that plan has fallen through.Because of that damned Argentine Messi's words, Lin Zhigao decided to cancel the vacation plan with him, and the three of them went back to China together.

John is not opposed to meeting Lin's parents. On the contrary, he actually hopes to impress Lin's family as soon as possible, so as to gain their approval.

But, what's the deal with bringing a Messi with you?What is "I have never been to China, so I really hope to live in that beautiful country for a while"?Would you like to travel by yourself?If you disturb other people's love, you will be struck by lightning!

But no matter how strongly opposed John felt in his heart, when Lin Zhigao asked for his opinion, he still smiled and agreed: "It is absolutely no problem to bring Messi back to China, dear Lin, that is your friend, We must treat him well."

He's a smart and generous gentleman, isn't he?So he must not fall out with Messi in front of Lin, even if he actually hates Messi so much.

All because of this Argentine, his beautiful fantasy that could have been transformed into reality-sunshine, beach, food, and Lin Tongtong in swimming trunks flapped his wings and flew away!

Leo Messi definitely did it on purpose!

Just look at his ugly face, because Lin Zhigao promised him that the three of them would return to China together after the shooting of the Pepsi commercial, so the Argentine showed off for two whole days with that hateful smile on his face !From time to time, he sent John a demonstrative look!

...Okay, maybe it wasn't a demonstration, but John would never allow his territory to be violated an inch!

So John also showed his possessiveness in a timely manner—for example, when the other party was exhausted after filming the advertisement, he arranged a comfortable and delicious dinner with a beautiful environment, and enjoyed Lin's shining eyes when he looked at him; For example, during dinner, I took the initiative to help Lin wipe off the rice grains from the corners of his mouth, hugged Lin's shoulders intimately from time to time, and occasionally kissed Lin on the cheek when Lin laughed...

Ha, watching the Argentines change their faces in an instant is the most interesting!

……

Capital International Airport.

Sun Dawei kept spinning in place like a spinning top, grabbing his hair anxiously: "Why haven't you arrived yet! Why haven't you arrived yet!!"

The other two reporters from "Sports Weekly" glanced at him sleepily, and squatted down to rest without moving.

Sun Dawei raised his wrist and looked at his watch again: "It should have arrived half an hour ago! Why is this flight so late? It will be dawn if it drags on!" He turned his head and looked at his subordinates: "You guys Everyone is not in a hurry at all! I have applied for overtime pay for you, this is calling you to come to work, not to come to the airport to catch up on sleep!"

The male reporter Xiao Liu, who was pulled by Sun Dawei, carried the camera and yawned: "I said, editor-in-chief, you dragged us up to pick us up in the middle of the night, and didn't tell us who we were going to pick up. Now you are on your own They are running around in a hurry and blaming us... We are also very wronged."

Sun Dawei was stunned for a moment: "I didn't tell you who we are going to pick up?"

The female reporter Xiao Wang also yawned one after another: "Anyway, I don't remember you saying it. It can't be Lin Zhigao, can it?"

Sun Dawei's face was bright.

Xiao Wang and Xiao Liu regained their energy immediately, and most of their drowsiness went away: "Lin Zhigao really returned to China today? On the flight we are going to pick up?!"

Sun Dawei coughed heavily: "Hush! Keep your voice down! You thought it was midnight and there was no one at the airport? Wrong! Don't you know where the stars are at the airport? How many colleagues sent people to guard this place 24 hours a day , we have to keep a low profile as much as possible so that no one will know our purpose."

Xiao Wang stuck out his tongue and said coquettishly, "Okay, okay, we know, and we will definitely not make any noise. Editor-in-Chief Sun, tell us quickly, will Lin Zhigao arrive soon?"

Sun Dawei raised his wrist to check the time, and said, "Xiao Jiang gave me the news that this flight is correct."

"Xiao Jiang... editor-in-chief, your old classmate who was Lin Zhigao's manager?" Xiao Liu said excitedly, "That's my idol! I started from nothing and was framed by others and left for a long time, but just in time to turn my face into victory with pride! How inspiring! What a legend!"

"Slap!", Sun Dawei slapped Xiao Liu on the back: "You bastard, you read too many novels!"

"Actually." Xiao Wang blushed slightly: "Editor-in-chief, your classmate is indeed quite legendary, the key is that he is also very handsome...he is not married yet, right?"

Sun Dawei rolled his eyes: "Now you two are not sleepy anymore?"

Xiao Wang and Xiao Liu: "I'm not sleepy at all!"

Sun Dawei coughed, and said, "Then I will continue to give you a hot spot, and try to make you two more excited after hearing it."

"What's hot?" Xiao Wang said shyly, "Could it be that the editor-in-chief wants to introduce me to a blind date?"

"Go away!" Sun Dawei waved his hand impatiently, dismissing Xiao Wang who was pretending to be hypocritical, and then said mysteriously: "He is not the only one who returned to China with Lin Zhigao this time!"

Xiao Liu was excited: "My idol Jiang Shupeng is also on the plane?!"

"Wrong, wrong, it's not my classmate Xiao Jiang, it's Messi!" When the word "Messi" was mentioned, Sun Dawei looked around in a cryptic manner before saying in a low voice.

Xiao Wang raised his eyebrows and picked his ears with his fingers: "Who?"

Xiao Liu was a little stunned: "I seem to... heard Messi's name..."

"Ah!" With a loud cry, the two people who reacted instantly rushed to Sun Dawei, one left and one right, shaking his shoulder desperately: "Did you just say Messi! Did you mean Messi?!"

Sun Dawei blushed from being shaken: "That's right, that's him! You two, let me go!"

Not only did Xiao Wang and Xiao Liu not let go of Sun Dawei, they even shook a little more, making Sun Dawei almost die.

Xiao Wang: "You should have told us earlier, editor-in-chief! I should get up two hours earlier to put on my makeup! My image! My rich man!!!"

Xiao Liu: "Signed photo, signed photo, signed photo! I forgot to take the signing pen! There is also the authentic Barcelona jersey I bought specially!"

At this moment, the airport announcement suddenly resounded throughout the hall, and the beautiful female voice was broadcasting over and over again: "Flight XXX from Rio de Janeiro to Beijing has arrived..."

Sun Dawei suddenly turned his head towards the entrance of the passage: "They're here!"

In fact, without his reminding, Xiao Wang and Xiao Liu had already heard the radio.Relying on their youth and strength, the two of them reacted faster than Sun Dawei. While Sun Dawei was busy showing his press credentials, the two of them were already running towards the exit passage with a camera on their shoulders and a microphone on the other. up.

Sun Dawei stomped his feet angrily: "You little bastards, wait for me!"

……

When Lin Zhigao, John, and Macy came out of the tunnel in a low-key manner, the trio of reporters with disheveled hair rushed forward, startling them.

Sun Dawei's press card was tilted to his shoulder, his face flushed and he ran out of breath.Xiao Liu was pointing at the three people with a camera and snapping shots. It seemed normal, if his hands were not shaking too much, it would be like a epileptic seizure.Xiao Wang held the roll in her right hand and placed it in front of Lin Zhigao, but her eyes were fixed on Messi, and at the same time, her left hand was still frantically running along her hair, trying to make them more stylish .

John frowned, and his eyes directly conveyed his inner thoughts: What kind of stuff is this?

Macy looked blankly at the Chinese female reporter who had been staring at her, and then at Lin Zhigao, not sure if it was a real interview with a reporter, or which TV station was doing a funny show.

Lin Zhigao recognized Sun Dawei's rounder face at a glance. He said to Macy and John: "Don't worry, this is a reporter I know." Then he looked helplessly at Sun Dawei Sighing: "My manager uncle revealed my itinerary to you again, right?"

"Bringing Messi back to China has such a face, if he dares not to talk to me, I will call and harass him in the middle of the night every day!" Sun Dawei smiled and said flatteringly: "For the sake of our old friendship, give An interview? If we can get Messi's first interview in the country, all our newspapers will publish it!"

Lin Zhigao folded his arms and smiled: "Your newspaper published it, and I have no benefit at all."

"You let us get rich, we will definitely treat you as the god of wealth, right?" Sun Dawei salivated and said, "I will write whatever you ask me to write, and the pen will point to the east or west. Even if you want me to write Messi Height 187, I will never write it as 170 for you!"

Lin Zhigao burst out laughing immediately: "You are poor!" After a pause, he continued: "But people come back to China with me for tourism, not for business activities. I dare not give this the first exclusive interview in the country." You, the interview is fine. Anyway, we will transfer back to Zhengzhou immediately, and then run all over China. No one knows the future route except me. So you can also take the title of number one in the country. Got it."

Sun Dawei thought for a moment, then nodded immediately: "OK!"

Lin Zhigao turned his head and told Messi about the situation, and Messi readily agreed to the request for an interview.Sun Dawei signaled Xiao Wang to ask questions. Two rookie reporters who had never seen a world-class superstar when they entered the industry, one with a microphone and the other with a camera, approached Messi tremblingly.

Sun Dawei turned his eyes on John again, and estimated, "This man... I seem to have seen him somewhere."

Subconsciously, Lin Zhigao didn't want them to include John in the report, so he moved his position to block Sun Dawei's line of sight, and said, "I'm mainly here to bring people to eat, drink and have fun, and I don't want to leave. You can meet reporters wherever you go, so when you write reports, be careful not to sell me."

Sun Dawei scratched his head: "Then what should I write? You packed up Messi and returned home, and then you stayed in Zhengzhou for more than ten days? Then the reporters flocking from all over the world will blow up your house."

"Stupid, you don't know how to write that you just met me at the airport and don't know anything about it!" Lin Zhigao thought about it: "Then I will send you an email in two days, sending you some photos or something. Which one should we leave?" You can report on any place, and let other reporters wander around the world.”

Sun Dawei smacked his lips when he heard this, and couldn't help giving a big thumbs up: "Torture people invisible, and let people follow your buttocks around the world. Poison, your trick is really poisonous."

Lin Zhigao grinned: "Don't praise me, these are all skills forced by you uncrowned kings."

Since it is currently midnight Beijing time, although there are many people coming and going in the airport hall, there are not many reporters staying on site, and most of the passengers come and go in a hurry, and they are tired, and they don't pay much attention to Lin Zhigao and Sun Dawei.The interview with Messi ended soon. Lin Zhigao said hello to Sun Dawei, then turned around and bought tickets with John and Messi to wait for the flight back to Zhengzhou.

Watching these three people disappear before his eyes, Sun Dawei rested his cheek on his right hand, thoughtful.

Xiao Liu turned off the camera and put it in his bag, checked the time on his phone, and yelled "Oops": "Editor-in-Chief, we have to report back to the agency quickly! Otherwise, we won't be able to meet today's deadline!"

Sun Dawei also looked at his watch, and said slowly: "Go back to the newspaper office, go home and catch up on sleep. The manuscript will be written in the office tomorrow, just hand it over to me in the afternoon."

Xiao Wang blinked and asked, "Then this report will not be published today?"

"Let's write the report exhaustedly now, and when the reporters from other newspapers get the news at dawn, they all rush to Zhengzhou to block Lin Zhigao Messi at the door?"

Sun Dawei made small calculations one by one: "That's not how things are done. First, I promised Lin Zhigao that I would keep it a secret for him this time. Second, if we want to eat alone, we have to eat as much as possible. This news will be released tomorrow. After other reporters got the news and went to Zhengzhou, Lin Zhigao and the others left long ago. Then when other newspapers are running around like headless chickens, we will follow Lin Zhigao’s email. If the reports are written consecutively, then other print media and online media will not all have to reprint our news?"

Xiao Wang sighed and said, "Editor-in-chief, you just said that you are Lin Zhigao, but I think you are a fighter among the best!"

Sun Dawei shook his head quite proudly: "Otherwise, how could I be your editor-in-chief?"

……

When the first netizen posted on the forum claiming that he saw Messi buying clothes in the Dennis Mall in Zhengzhou, and that he was accompanied by Lin Zhigao and another foreigner, everyone laughed that his eyes must have reached the degree of myopia Above 800 degrees.

And when a second Zhengzhou netizen appeared, swearing that he had definitely seen "Messi eating kebabs", very few netizens asked dubiously, "Are you sure you didn't see someone who looks like Messi?" Xinjiang guy?"

Most of the other people were busy sighing—"Has a virus called hallucinations already invaded Zhengzhou?!"

The two netizens were so wronged that they almost raised their fingers and swore that they were not lying, amidst the overwhelming ridicule on the Internet, but there was no need for them to swear, because the headlines of the new issue of "Sports Weekly" had already washed away their confidence. Innocent, and made the eyes of journalists and fans all over the country almost fall off ——"Messi Appeared at the Capital Airport Lin Zhigao and Friends Going Home for Vacation? "Lin Zhigao returned to China?Or with Messi? !

This is not a joke!

Sports reporters from all over the country flocked to Zhengzhou City, trying their best to get close to Lin Zhigao's parents and relatives.And when some sneaky reporters who were not caught by the community security knocked on the door of Lin's house, Lin Chang'an not only received them with a smile, but also answered the reporter's questions: "Ah, you ask Messi. Yes, they I was here yesterday, and our whole family had dinner with him. The young man was very polite. He brought gifts to our family members and greeted me in Mandarin, although what he said had a weird taste. "

Lin Changan's answer made the reporter very excited. He then asked excitedly: "Is Messi invited by Lin Zhigao? How long will they stay in China? Will they be interviewed by reporters or appear on programs? What does he have to Chinese football? view?"

"Oh, I don't know what you asked later. I only know that he was invited by my son to play, not only him, but also a man named John! I heard that he is a boss or something, but I don't know It's too clear that I can't understand what they're saying."

John and other reporters don’t care, he just wants to know about Messi and Lin Zhigao: “Then are they in Zhengzhou now? Can I interview them?”

Lin Changan scratched his head, "They left early this morning!"

The reporter was stunned: "Go, where did you go?"

"I'm going to play! Gao Gao said that he would take his friends around the whole of China."

"Quan, the whole of China?" A thunderbolt fell from the blue sky, and the reporter was a little dazed: "Then do you know how they got there? Self-driving tour? Where is their first stop?"

The reporter's cross-examination made Lin Chang'an feel impatient: "You, reporter, ask too many questions. How about checking the household registration? I don't go out with my son and the others, so I know what to do in such detail."

With a "click", the gate of Lin's family shut the crying reporter outside, and within 10 minutes, the security guards of the community came to find them, and chased these escaped fish away from the gate of the community like ducks. Get out, and strictly forbid them to come in again.

More than a hundred reporters are about to dig Zhengzhou City into the ground. Whether they are ordinary citizens who have met Messi Lin Zhigao by chance, or relatives like Lin Zhigao's seven aunts and eight uncles, they have interviewed them all, and the news they get is only Two: First, Messi followed Lin Zhigao back to China.Second, they stayed in Zhengzhou for a day and then went on a trip. The purpose and mode of transportation are unknown.

It was not easy to get a blockbuster in this boring summer, but the bomb was running around with long legs, and sports reporters across the country were about to cry—except for "Sports Weekly".

For a long time to come, the sports columns of major internet portals, as well as the headlines of most print media reports, all quoted the news from the "Sports Weekly", which made Sun Dawei very long in the newspaper office. Turning around, not only doubled the year-end bonus, but even began to fantasize that he would be able to take the position of editor-in-chief before the age of 40.

Because Sun Dawei's secrecy was in place, the national reporters really couldn't find the real trace of Lin Zhigao and them. Whenever a new issue of "Sports Weekly" was published, the reporters embarked on the road of searching based on the clues in the text. However, Lin Zhigao, Macy, and John have already rushed to other cities.

Lin Zhigao's low-key and mysterious journey has benefited many unintentional fans. For more than ten days, some fans posted online from time to time claiming that they met Lin Zhigao and his party at a certain tourist attraction, and proudly posted Signed an autograph or took a group photo, and these netizens, without exception, received many envious and envious messages.

At the end of July, Lin Zhigao bid farewell to his friend who was obviously rounded at the Capital Airport. Messi took two suitcases of Chinese specialties, reluctantly bid farewell to Lin Zhigao, and repeatedly affirmed Said: "I will come to China again next year, Lin. But at that time my father may have to arrange some business activities for me, but I will definitely find time to travel with you. We went to Tibet this year, but we didn't make it. Grassland, can you take me there next year?"

"You are already an adult, Mr. Macy." John said with a sneer and sneer, "You can go where you want to go by yourself, and you don't need to declare to us."

"I was talking to Lin, but I didn't go to ask you, Mr. Elchin." Macy immediately countered: "If I didn't know that you are Italian, I thought you would be born and raised in the United States." (United States People like to meddle in their own business :-)

"...I said can you two calm down for a while." Lin Zhigao was helpless as the two of them fought all the way.

John and Macy immediately shut their mouths, but their eyes were like swords, fighting each other sharply in the air.

If there is anything unsatisfactory about this summer’s trip, it is that John and Macy have to fight each other every day, even if it’s just such a boring thing as whether a poached egg is better fried on both sides or on one side. They can all disagree and fight each other.

Showing a bright smile to Messi, Lin Zhigao gave him the last hug before leaving: "You are welcome to come to China anytime, Leo."

Messi stepped back and boarded the plane to Argentina.

As soon as he disappeared at the boarding gate, the sharp temperament on John's body immediately became much softer, and he grumbled and complained to Lin Zhigao: "Your friend ruined our entire vacation."

"I think you two enjoy it when you bicker." Lin Zhigao raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't that the case with Huanxi's friends in the movie? They slept together after arguing."

John turned his head silently: "... Lin, if you continue talking, I won't have an appetite for lunch."

Lin Zhigao laughed happily.
