When Wang Ai told the girls about losing the Golden Globe at the dinner table, there was an uproar.
They were busy in the Apennine Lights and didn't know the news at all. Wang Ai's vow before leaving deceived them, so much so that they thought Wang Ai was hosting the Golden Globe Awards filming team in Beijing.
Wang Ai didn't dare to be too specific, but he also briefly talked about media raids at the club level, diversion of votes, political discrimination at the national level, and political changes. Some guards may not understand it, but this is Wang Ai's purpose
: Those who understand will naturally know the weight and won’t talk nonsense, and those who don’t understand will have less trouble listening to it.
Zhao Dan, who stayed behind this time, heard everything clearly, but said nothing. Kang Si chirped in anger, but of course this did not delay her eating, while Shi Wenjun frowned and thought about something while eating.
Liu Dingxiang rarely spoke up to participate: "Our work in France went very smoothly, and we didn't feel any political obstruction. Even if there was any, it was the French people's habitual pride and laziness that caused delays."
Shi Wenjun, who had been silent on the side, laughed: "The French are making money from us, why can't they get along with the money?"
Everyone nodded: "Yes."
"The two major awards will be merged next year, right? How long do you think this situation will last?" Shi Wenjun asked Wang Ai.
Wang Ai took a bun and put it in his mouth. He didn't say anything after eating. He finished another one before speaking: "The situation is too complicated and I can't figure it out clearly for a while, but the Sino-French relationship does not depend on the personal will of a certain leader."
The transfer is due to the long-term strategic needs of both parties. Therefore, in the long run, it will not pose a threat to my winning of the award, and that is unjustifiable. You just watch, when the selection results come out, I will not say anything, it will definitely cause a scene
stand up."
Wang Ai took a sip of the soup: "There are all kinds of unfavorable factors, but all kinds of unfavorable factors alone cannot do it. Last year, France was not so good with China, but I still won the Golden Globe Award. So Barcelona
The little gestures he made to me were quite important. Fortunately, I learned a lesson every time, and no one would be able to treat me like this next time."
"Is there any problem with the sponsor?"
Wang Ai shook his head: "No problem, Messi and I are both Adidas spokespersons, but there are many Adidas spokespersons, and I am the most influential. Although this year is considered a civil war for the Adidas family, for example, the value increase is also 20%, and it is on me.
The absolute amount is different from that on Messi. So Adi still suffered a loss. He probably didn't expect it and was careless like me."
"What do you think France wants? What does Sarkozy want?" Shi Wenjun put down his chopsticks: "They resumed nuclear tests a few years ago. The ambition of this big country is very obvious."
Wang Ai shook his head: "It should be asking for help from the United States. Maybe France wants to do something in North Africa. Maybe it can't handle it on its own..."
Speaking of this, a flash of lightning flashed in Wang Ai's mind, and he looked up at Shi Wenjun: "Maybe it's Libya."
Everyone looked at a loss and couldn't think of it for a while. Wang Ai shook his finger like a prophet: "France does not have oil fields in the North Sea, so it has strict control over North and West Africa. But I heard that Libya is considering using gold dinars.
Replacing the West African CFA franc. Economic, crude oil, and possibly political factors, Sarkozy's domestic approval rating is not high."
Shi Wenjun frowned: "Are you saying that Sarkozy's return to NATO is not really giving up his ambition as a great power, but intending to use the power of NATO to integrate North Africa?"
Wang Ai nodded: "There must be some consideration in this regard."
Zhao Dan on the opposite side was eating his buns so slowly. After listening to Wang Ai's words, he said slowly: "But there is still a problem here. If France wants to integrate North Africa, it must use military force. And an unprovoked invasion will inevitably
There was a lot of opposition and it was contrary to the goal of integration."
Wang Ai nodded thoughtfully. After a while, he suddenly said: "Brother Yan, how much has our monthly expenditure increased? Since the subprime mortgage crisis?"
Yan Zhu was stunned for a moment: "If calculated on a per capita basis, it has increased by about 30%."
Wang Ai nodded when he heard this and sighed: "Our family is rich, so the increase is nothing. European agriculture is developed, and the per capita income is still high, so it is nothing. But the development is average, the contradictions are sharp, and the energy itself is still lacking.
This is especially troublesome for countries that are not self-sufficient in food, such as Egypt, Tunisia, Syria, and Libya. After privatization, the gap between rich and poor is huge, but the population is growing extremely fast. A large number of people are already on the poverty line, and food prices are so high.
If the price rises, they will starve, and it would be strange if nothing happens."
Zhao Dan squinted: "If France wins in chaos and goes to attack Libya, no one will object?"
Wang Ai nodded: "Hold the United States, who else can object? Gaddafi has offended the five major countries many times. In fact, after the subprime mortgage crisis, there were signs of this. The United States was frantically printing money to pass on the crisis.
All these banknotes have gone into the futures market of grain and crude oil. With prices soaring, something will happen to poor countries with unsecured agriculture, so there will be no time to care about Libya. In fact, the former Soviet Union was under economic pressure in some years when food prices were soaring.
It’s huge, otherwise we wouldn’t use our gold reserves to buy food.”
Zhao Dan thought for a while and nodded, and Yan Zhu said instead: "I want to clean up Libya, and if we catch up with such a wave of black swan events, we also have some partisan interests and political interests to consider, right?"
Wang Ai nodded, but Zhao Dan remained silent, seeming to be reciting silently.
Wang Ai glanced at him, turned around and chatted with Shi Wenjun, pretending not to notice.
In fact, over the years, Wang Ai has been well aware of the tasks of Yan Zhu and Zhao Dan, the two major security chiefs: of course it was to preserve a hope for Chinese football at first, but later he became more and more interested in his thoughts. Especially
It was three years ago that Wang Ai wrote to the Ministry of Finance pointing out the danger of the U.S. economic crisis, which was later confirmed. Wang Ai can be regarded as a crooked talent like He Xin in the field of economics.
People who engage in philosophy have this ability. They may seem inconspicuous at ordinary times, but they may surprise you at any time. Regarding the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis, domestic economists hardly gave any early warning, but instead kept shouting to follow up.
The United States studies financial innovation. On the contrary, a philosophy researcher from the Academy of Social Sciences issued an early warning almost at the same time as Wang Ai.
So whenever Wang Ai puts forward a new point of view, Zhao Dan will write it down and hand it in, especially if it involves war or even an early warning of problems in a large country.
Of course Wang Ai doesn't care. It has little to do with China anyway. He has no control over how his superiors use his predictions. His superiors won't tell him, and he won't take the initiative to ask.
His main task is to make up for the situation and win the next World Footballer selection.
