"Are you really not allowed to participate?"Li Qiao asked.
"Okay, if you want to make trouble and be famous again, and get scolded by your bearded coach," Diana said.
After Diana's words, Eugene and Li Qiao became honest, and Eugene leaned his head over and whispered, "I told you not to bring her here."
As soon as the words were finished, Diana stuffed a big donut into Eugene's mouth.
"To shut up".
Li Qiao chuckled and patted Eugene, his eyes seemed to say: "People who mess with Diana will have nothing to end with."
Since they don't take part in the competition, it's fine for the three of them to watch other people's games in the shopping mall. Freestyle football has become like "parkour" in Europe, and it has become a great hobby for young people. Li Qiao feels very interesting seeing the players playing trendy moves.
The current fashion trend of freestyle football is to integrate it with hip-hop, half dancing and half football skills, like many floor moves learned from B-BOY.
"Children nowadays are amazing. I really didn't expect that football can play so many tricks, which is much more exciting than ours at that time," Eugene said.
Yes, even the rules of the current competition have been changed. It is no longer PK, but like gymnastics, with professional judges scoring. The contestants on the stage complete a performance within 2 minutes, and then score to determine the ranking.
When the three of them probed their brains, the audience in front of them cheered. It turned out that a contestant made a particularly beautiful move that attracted everyone's applause.
Li Qiao touched his pants, as if his phone vibrated, "You two wait for me, I'll go outside to answer the phone."
"Oh, if you get separated, meet us at the café," Diana said.
*****
"Dad, what's wrong"?
"Someone looking for you".
Li Qiao thought to himself: "The only people who will find me are Diana and Stan, besides my parents, who else is there?"
"Who?"
"Rummenigge",
Li Qiao was quite surprised, and stammered, "Why... what?"
"No, I will transfer his phone number to you, but remind you not to make any promises to him."
Li Shan has studied agent courses for half a year, and now he has professional sensitivity. He knows that it is against the rules for players to contact other teams in private without telling the club.
"I see, Dad, send it over."
Li Qiao looked at the number and was a little hesitant. After half a year, he had a deep understanding of how much Dortmund hated "traitors". So is he a traitor to Dortmund if he called "Rummenigge" in private?
"Dad is right, what does a phone call matter as long as I don't make any promises"?
Heartbroken, Li Qiao dialed the phone.
"Lee Joe, I'm glad to hear from you," Rummenigge said.
Li Qiao was thinking about how to call the other party. Foreigners should be called by first name, and "Rummenigge" is the last name.
"Call me "Karl"," Rummenigge offered.
"Hello Carl",
"Is it cold in Kyiv"?
Li Qiao laughed.
"Carl, what do you want me to do?"
"Oh, it's like this, a party reported by the "Munich Daily" invited some sports figures of the year, I recommended you, can you come to Dubai"?
Li Qiao thought to himself: "Damn, it's really a high-end domineering reason."
"No, I will make news if I show up at the party held by Bayern."
"It's not Bayern, it's the "Munich Daily", and it's private, and no other media is invited. If you are worried about this, then I can use my reputation to guarantee it."
A wealthy family is like a prestigious university, with endless temptations. If the president of Tsinghua University calls to invite you, will you still remain calm?
The same is true for football players. Although Dortmund is also a member of the "G14", compared to Bayern, its influence is still far behind.
"It's just a party, not a contract, right?"Rummenigge said.
Li Qiao hesitated for a moment, but replied: "Sorry, I can't go."
"Well then, Merry Christmas".
Rummenigge hangs up the phone after saying goodbye politely
*****
In the coffee shop, Li Qiao told Diana and Eugene what happened just now.
"Joe, you're right. Loyalty is the most important thing," Diana said.
Eugene on the side muttered, "There is something in the words."
Diana glared at him without hesitation, and Eugene quickly blocked Diana's sharp gaze with the sandwich in his hand.
Li Qiao just smiled lightly.
"Although I appreciate Bayern, I respect Dortmund. If they really want to buy, I have to follow the procedure and contact the club first."
"Well said, much better than some unprincipled people." After speaking, he glanced at Eugene again.
After eating something, the three of them went home. It seems that the older they are, the less they like shopping, and they always feel noisy.
As soon as he entered the house, Li Qiao's phone rang again.
"Hehe, it seems very persistent," Eugene said.
Diana was very considerate, and he pushed Eugene in so that Li Qiao could answer the phone alone.
"Why push me, almost fell",
"You're thick-skinned, you're fine," Diana said.
Li Qiao looked at the caller ID, it was a completely unfamiliar phone number.
"Hey",
"Li Qiao?"
Listening to the voice, Li Qiao felt quite familiar.
"Roben"?
"Merry Christmas",
"Merry Christmas, Robben".
"Wait a minute, is it just for a greeting from Luo Yuan?" Li Qiao thought to himself.
Li Qiao knew that Robben was a lobbyist, but he didn't want to tell the truth.
"I'm on vacation in Kiev",
"Good place, I'm in Dubai," Robben said.
"What's the matter with you"?Li Qiao asked.
"Well... Karl asked me to apologize for him," Robben said.
"Where is this singing?" Li Qiao thought to himself.
"Mr. Rummenigge did not offend me",
"No, it is illegal to contact you in the name of Bayern, you are right, so he asked me to apologize to you".
Li Qiao gave a "hmm", noncommittal.
"Are we friends, Li Qiao?"
"certainly",
"If I invite you to Dubai as a friend, would you like to"?Probably because he was afraid that Li Qiao would misunderstand, Robben immediately went on to say: "If you don't attend the "Munich Daily News" party, just get together with me."
Li Qiao is a very loyal person, and he has no reason to refuse Robben's invitation, "Okay, when".
"Tomorrow, if you can"?
"Okay, I'll book a flight now",
"No, I can send a private jet to pick you up," Robben said.
"I hope you don't refuse",
(Foreign private jets are not necessarily bought by themselves, but can also be rented, such as NetJets under Buffett does this)
Li Qiao agreed.
*****
"Joe, I want a present for Christmas," said Eugene.
"what would you like",
"I want……",
Before he finished speaking, Diana picked the back of his head, "The Lobarovs are not beggars."
Li Qiao smiled, "It's okay, I just want to give Brother Eugene a gift, but I'm going to Dubai." Then Li Qiao took out a credit card, "Buy what you like."
Diana took it first.
"Hey, here it is for me," said Eugene.
"I'll supervise, you can go at ease," Diana said.
The next day Eugene bought a "Harley" that he had always wanted.
*****
The Palm Island in Dubai is known as the eighth wonder of the world. It is said that it can be seen from space. There is a pier on one of the private islands. There is a blue yacht parked on the pier. Under the blue sea and blue sky, a woman hugs her child on the yacht to enjoy the sea breeze and sunbathe.
"Stop running around," Robben said to his children.
"This place is really comfortable. I want to buy a small island like this to live with my family in the future," Li Qiao said.
"It's more beautiful to go out to sea," Robben said.
Li Qiao longed for that kind of life, driving around the bay of Dubai every day on a yacht, blowing the sea breeze.
In the afternoon, Robben drove the yacht to the sea with Li Qiao. Robben drove very fast and stopped just before leaving the bay. This kind of yacht cannot enter the ocean and can only sail in the bay.
After going around a few times, Robben turned off the engine, parked the yacht in the bay, and poured Li Qiao a glass of champagne.
"There is no need to be cautious here. If there are no reporters, even if the "KGB" comes, they will not be able to film anything," Robben said.
After chatting for a while, a yacht slowly approached in the distance, and Li Qiao thought to himself: "The KGB is really here."
"What a coincidence, Robben, to see you here",
Li Qiao set up a pergola with his hands and saw that it was the Bayern chairman "Rummenigge" and the sports director "Sammer".
Bayern’s system is a bit different from other clubs. It is quite similar to Manchester United, that is, there are many veterans, and these veterans often enjoy a lot of voice in the club. That is to say, in Bayern Club, it is not about your position, but your qualifications in the club. This is the same as Manchester United. Even if Ferguson retires, his words still carry great weight in Manchester United.
Only by understanding this can you understand why the chairman of Dortmund is not in charge of specific affairs, but the chairman of Bayern is in charge.
"Would you mind having a drink"?Sammer asked (he is equivalent to Dortmund Zorc's position).
Li Qiao looked at Robben, meaning "your yacht is up to you".
"Jump over here".
Although the bay here is as calm as the West Lake, but Rummenigge is almost 60 years old after all, Li Qiao thinks it's better for the two of us to go there.
"Let's go there",
"Well, the yachts here are bigger," Rummenigge said.
After going there, I found out that Robben is a yacht, and Rummenigge's can be regarded as a warship. The interior is very large, and it is no problem to hold a dance.
"Go inside, it's air-conditioned," Summer said.
Four people got into the "belly" of the yacht, a huge room with sofa, TV, and kitchen.
"Brandy"?Summer asked.
"No, is there any juice?" Li Qiao said.
Summer smiled lightly, "I'll give you a Margarita."
Li Qiao nodded.
The four of them sat down and exchanged pleasantries while drinking. The fool knew that this was not a chance meeting, but what could Li Qiao say?Let's settle down now, and see what they plan to do later.
