The Ballon d'Or is the most influential and valuable individual award in football, and the candidates who go to France to attend the awards ceremony every year often represent the best players in the world last season.
For newcomers, this is a compliment and an affirmation, but for Chen Mo, it feels a little different.
In the past four years, every time he came to France, he would either go to Ronaldinho's villa to have a party, or go to Henry's house to have fun, but not this time.
Neither Ronaldinho nor Thierry Henry were shortlisted for this year's Ballon d'Or.
The top stars of the older generation have begun to retire one after another. However, life is like riding the subway. There are always people getting off and people getting up.
Old guys like Ronaldinho and Henry are no longer good, but there are always newcomers to take over.
As soon as the plane arrived in France under the warm sunshine in the afternoon, Chen Mo met Giroud at the airport.
When old friends meet, even though they are no longer teammates, they still smile, hug and greet each other.
After getting in the car, Chen Mo also discovered that Jilu had brought many baby products to Yuechi Xun.
The relationship between the two parties is still very good, mainly because Giroud and Arsenal broke up peacefully.
Giroud has indeed made his mark at Arsenal in recent years. During this summer window, many teams were looking for Giroud. The highest bidder at that time was Real Madrid, but Giroud wanted to go to Liverpool the most.
Although the price offered by Real Madrid is high, Real Madrid has just changed its leadership and its internal strategy is not clear. It is very likely that the two years will be wasted like the Magic Flute, but Liverpool is different.
The reason why Giroud cannot stay at Arsenal is because Arsenal uses a 433 formation and presses high most of the time. This tactical style has high requirements for the big center. Not only must he be able to serve as a wall and a fulcrum, but he must also be able to He scored the goal himself, but Liverpool formed a 442 formation.
442 is a two-center system, with one carrying the man and the other running and scoring. Moreover, Liverpool attaches much more importance to the tactic of high ball passing from the wing than Arsenal.
From a tactical perspective, Liverpool is actually more suitable for Giroud than Arsenal.
It's just that Liverpool didn't have much money, and they couldn't compete with Real Madrid's bid at the time. But in the end, Arsenal, which had no financial pressure anymore, didn't embarrass Giroud. After all, even if there was no relationship, the transfer fee given by Liverpool was enough to equal Wenger's purchase of Giroud. It was more than ten times the price.
They broke up peacefully, and both Chen Mo and Giroud are no longer the 17 or 18-year-old boys they were back then, and they are more open-minded about some things.
Moreover, Giroud is currently performing well in Liverpool. After seven rounds this season, as the team's non-leading scorer, he has scored five goals. It can be said that he is in very hot form.
There was no barrier, and the two parties were still talking and laughing in the car as before. Jilu stopped by and pointed Chen Mo to a nearby hospital.
The main reason is that the due date of Yuechi's family is in the past few days. Originally, Chen Mo even wanted to cancel the award ceremony and stay with his wife at home. However, with Yuechi's insistence, he finally came to France. However, at this time, Chen Mo How can I rest assured that Yue Chixun can be at home?
Not only did they bring Yuechi Xun and Keli with them, but they also specially invited a well-known private doctor and his team to accompany them.
Well, a whole medical team is in the car behind.
Talking and laughing along the way, they soon arrived at Jilu's house. At the door of Jilu's house, as soon as Chen Mo got out of the car, he saw a smiling blond man standing at the door.
Rakitic.
Nothing to say, there was another hug and greeting, and then they walked into the house and chatted about the current situation.
When talking about recent professional matters, Rakitic also had a lot of smiles on his face.
Giroud went to Liverpool, while Rakitic went to Sevilla in La Liga.
From a player perspective, although Sevilla, the traditional La Liga team that won the Copa del Rey last year, is considered an upper-tier team in La Liga, it is definitely not as good as the Premier League giants Liverpool. However, Rakitic went to Sevilla to serve as the core.
To be honest, although Rakitic is a blue-collar player at Arsenal, his offensive talent is not bad.
In the original timeline, at his peak in Sevilla, he could score fifteen goals in a single season, lead the team to the Europa League championship as the core and captain, and was selected for the best team.
Rakitic is indeed talented, and although he has not been with Chen Mo for too long, Chen Mo has always had no reservations about making close friends. Whether on or off the court, Chen Mo will often help Rakitic. Teach understands tactics and improves his skills.
Rakitic has made rapid progress, otherwise Arsenal would not have won the Champions League last season.
Even strictly speaking, if it weren't for last year's incomplete Dream 3 and the huge signings from Real Madrid, Bayern, Manchester City and other teams that put huge pressure on Wenger, Rakitic might not have been sold.
But it is a pity that in this world of great competition, Arsenal does not have more time to give Rakitic to grow.
But it’s actually okay. Like Giroud, Rakitic has developed very well after going to Sevilla. In addition to adapting in the first few rounds, he has gradually become the core of Sevilla’s midfield. , If he continues to play this way, it is estimated that Rakitic will return to the wealthy club in less than two years.
The three of them were chatting, and not long after, two guys, Bell and Di Maria, also came.
The two of them are the most famous flying wing combination in football today.
People in Europe and the United States call them "DB Group", which is a long-standing reputation.
However, some anti-fans in Longguo called the two of them plus Chen Mo the "DSB combination".
Di Maria's D, Chen Mo's Stabile's S, Bell's B
After hearing Chen Mo's explanation, Angel Bell and others burst into laughter, and Na Na sighed that Heizi's brain circuit was really awesome.
Time passed bit by bit as they chatted and laughed and watched TV. At around six o'clock in the evening, they all put on crisp black suits and took a car to the awards ceremony.
What a coincidence, the vehicle had just arrived at the entrance, Chen Mo had just gotten out of the car to straighten his suit collar, and the black Audi carrying Messi also arrived at the same time. But what’s interesting is that through the front window, Chen Mo not only saw Antonella, but also Messi, who was dozing in the back seat, his head moving little by little.
Seeing this scene, Chen Mo almost laughed out loud.
But it’s understandable.
In previous years, Chen Mo invited Messi to attend the Golden Globe Awards, but this year's Golden Globe Awards were held at a somewhat rigid time, in the middle of the season.
Whether it's Chen Mo, Giroud or Messi, they basically come here to receive an award today, and then go back to play the game tomorrow.
Messi's look is obviously like he just got off the plane.
As the vehicle stopped, Messi in the car also leaned forward slightly, woke up, then subconsciously wiped his saliva and looked around until he saw Chen Mo and others wearing black suits on the side of the road, with their hands in their pockets. Messi Shi seemed to have just come to his senses, covered his head and smiled awkwardly, then straightened his collar, rubbed his chin and got out of the car.
There is no doubt that such a large group of handsome guys in suits standing on the roadside at Chen Mo's side was very eye-catching. All reporters and media were filming frantically. When Messi got out of the car and walked towards Chen Mo, the whole place was instantly covered by flash lights.
Chen Mo and Messi are the most promising players to win the award this year, and the two of them are young. This kind of king-meet-king drama is definitely the most eye-catching report!
However, not everyone was filming Chen Mo and Messi. When Antonella walked over to the potbellied Yuechi Kaoru and Keli helped to support her, the reporters went crazy again, especially the Japanese TV station reporter.
I was so excited that I screamed strangely.
There's nothing special about walking on the red carpet, just signing autographs and waving hello.
Soon, everyone walked through and arrived at the award ceremony.
As in previous years, many senior media people and celebrities from all walks of life were already sitting in the awards hall.
However, what is different from before is that although the previous Chen Mo was also very strong, he was too young after all, and many celebrities and senior media people would not take the initiative to show his kindness.
But it's different now.
Although this year's Golden Globe Award is said to be between Chen Mo, Messi and Kaká, in fact this is mainly to let fans discuss a gimmick to increase the popularity. Everyone knows that Chen Mo's winning is actually close to ten.
At the age of 21, looking only at top honors, he already has a Hercules Cup, three Champions Leagues, a World Cup Golden Globe, two Golden Globes, and if you include this year's one, there are three Golden Globes.
The trend is achieved!
Along the way, many of the big guys who knew him a little took the initiative to stand up and shake hands with Chen Mo, smiling and saying polite words.
There is no doubt that these scenes were seen by other players in the seats next to them, and they were a little envious in their hearts. However, Chen Mo didn't feel it at all. He didn't really like talking to people he didn't know well, which made him a little uncomfortable.
Fortunately, after shaking hands, Kakayibu and others in the front row waved to him and said hello. Chen Mo also took this opportunity to escape and ran to sit with Kaka and the others like primary school students on a spring outing. Chatter in the front row.
But what is interesting is that Messi and Kaka are sitting on the left and right of Chen Mo, while Ronaldo is sitting next to him on his left hand, and Rooney is sitting behind Ronaldo on his right.
The team behind Ronaldo likes to find CPs for Ronaldo, not only the "Peerless Twins", but also "Capello" and the "Manchester United Twins".
When Ronaldo first arrived at Manchester United, the outside world believed that Ronaldo and Rooney were the Manchester United twins with a deep relationship.
It was just that in the 2006 World Cup, when Portugal played against England, Rooney lost control of his emotions during a one-on-one match and stepped on the opponent's second brother, causing the players from both sides to become entangled.
This is normal. The atmosphere of the World Cup is very intense. If you commit a foul, you will get a card.
As a result, Cristiano Ronaldo from Gemini rushed over and asked the referee to put pressure on him, signaling that Rooney would be given a red card.
This incident not only caused the relationship between Rooney and Ronaldo to break down, but also caused the emotions of English fans to explode. Ronaldo almost couldn't return to the Premier League to play in the Premier League, but it was Ferguson who personally intervened to save Ronaldo.
Of course, this is the story in the original timeline, but it's pretty much the same now.
During the summer window, Cristiano Ronaldo and FIFA President Sepp Blatter had a "slave theory" double act, which directly forced Manchester United to send Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid in humiliation during this critical period of Manchester City's rise.
Although Ferguson still claims that Ronaldo is his child, it is strange for other Manchester United players to look good on Ronaldo.
Regarding Ronaldo, Chen Mo had nothing to say, but he was chatting with Rooney, or rather seducing!
Arsenal currently lacks a big center. Although Rooney is not a typical big center, Rooney
To be honest, Rooney is actually down on his luck.
Although he joined Manchester United at a young age, just like Modric joined Real Madrid at the wrong time, the results were not good.
Rooney has explosive physical fitness and is a very, very comprehensive frontcourt attacker. He is very capable of carrying people from behind and is also good at grabbing points in the penalty area. When he joined Manchester United at the age of 18, he scored a hat trick in the Champions League group stage in his first show. .
He has strong shooting skills, can resist people, can attack from the side, and can also retreat from the center to play as an attacking midfielder.
That's a good thing, but it's also not a good thing.
The era when he joined Manchester United coincided with the decline of Manchester United's Class of 1992. He could play as a shooter and forward, but no one in the team could use him in other positions, so he could only be used as a fill-in.
For example, after Ruud van Nistelrooy left, Rooney changed from a shooter to a big center who carried space in front of Ronaldo. For example, after Scholes' ability declined, Rooney dropped from the forward position to play as an attacking midfielder.
This is both a good thing and a bad thing.
By playing in multiple positions, your skills can be fully developed, but the problem is that everyone only has 24 hours in a day.
Time is limited and energy is limited.
Even Chen Mo basically doesn't practice defense at all, otherwise he wouldn't be able to develop such strong passing skills.
If this continues, Rooney may sink.
But this is not important. What is important is that Chen Mo actually wants to be teammates with Rooney.
Ever since, under Ronaldo's painful eyes, Chen Mo was standing next to him and kept using words to seduce Rooney.
Honestly, there's a chance.
Rooney did not come from Manchester United's youth training. He only joined Manchester United from Everton in 2004.
Even in the original timeline, in the 2010 season, because Manchester United not only failed to strengthen the lineup, but also sold people, Rooney had the idea of transfer, but in the end he stayed.
But poaching people is also quite difficult.
Rooney's contract with Manchester United still has three years left, expiring in 2011, and Manchester United is currently very short of players. As for the end, Ferguson and Wenger are bitter enemies. Now Ferguson has just been slapped by Real Madrid and is about to be slapped by Wenger again.
It is estimated that as long as Wenger dares to make an offer to Manchester United, Ferguson will knock on Wenger's door with his boots that night.
After chatting and laughing, soon the award ceremony officially began, and interestingly, the guest who presented the award this time was the legendary German star Matthaus.
I have to say that Matthäus is nicknamed Big Mouth for a reason.
The first thing this guy said when he got to the podium was "I don't understand why the organizer asked me to present this award. After all, there is not a single German candidate here." 】
These words were a bit explosive, and the scene was immediately silenced.
But what he said is right. There is not a single German among the top 30 Ballon d'Or winners this year. This shows that the Bundesliga and Bayern in this era are indeed at a trough within a trough.
Obviously, this was Matthaus's teasing, and he soon changed the topic and started talking about useless thank you nonsense.
After the opening remarks, the highlight clips of Chen Mo and others from last season began to be played on the big screen.
However, most of the clips are all about Chen Mo, Messi and Kaka. There is no doubt that this is already hinted by the organizer.
With bursts of applause from the back row, the work lady also handed an envelope to Matthäus. He opened the microphone and took a look, with an exaggerated eyebrow expression on his face, and then glanced at Chen Mo and others. , smiled and said: "Okay, now I have got the list of winners. Next, I will announce the final winner of the 2008 Golden Globe Award. He is Mo Chen Stabile!!! Congratulations, young man, you Won the third Golden Globe Award in my life!"
The sound was very loud, and with the lights suddenly turning on, the scene of Chen Mo sliding to his knees after scoring in the Champions League final last season also appeared on the big screen.
The result was not too unexpected. There were bursts of applause at the scene, and Kaka and Messi also smiled and stretched out their hands to rub Chen Mo's hair.
Amidst the congratulations from relatives and friends, Chen Mo stood up with a smile, straightened his suit and prepared to go on stage. But at this moment, the back row suddenly became chaotic. Under Chen Mo's eyes gradually widening, Keli kept calling the doctor at the door of the building to enter the hall. , while Antonella in the seat was a little panicked, supporting Yuechi Xun, who looked in pain.
"Giving birth?"
Subconsciously, this word came to Chen Mo's mind as his scalp felt numb.
The next second, without any hesitation, under the gaze of Matthaus holding the Ballon d'Or trophy, under the gaze of countless reporters, and under the bewildered gaze of Kaka Messi and others who did not notice the situation in the back row, Chen Mo Turn around and rush to the back row quickly.
The scene was chaotic!
But soon, everyone understood what happened!
Kaka, Messi, Verde, Maria, Ibrahimovic, Ramos and Rooney all stood up and gathered around. After the doctor confirmed that the problem was not serious, the nervous expressions on everyone's faces relaxed, and Na Na screamed strangely. Congratulations to Chen Mo for becoming a father.
Relatives and friends were very excited. After all, they were all young. Chen Mo was also the first among them to become a father. Many people felt a little excited. However, the organizers were in trouble, especially Matthäus, who was holding a golden ball. Standing on the stage with the award, those who didn’t know thought he was the one receiving the award.
But there is nothing to say now. I can only wait for Chen Mo to come over. Unfortunately, Chen Mo doesn’t have the Golden Globe Award in his eyes now. He just follows the doctor’s stretcher and holds Yue Chixun’s hand as he walks out. At this time, Ibrahimovic reminded me that he had not received the award yet, but what was waiting for him was
Chen Mo didn't stop at all. He just looked back at Rakitic, who was standing behind the group of relatives and friends, stretching his neck to watch.
"Rakitic, help me get it!"
