It is natural to win the Asian Golden Globe Award. No one in Asia can pose a threat to Wang Ai's football status and performance, not even the last few together. But last year the sports team came to home to award the award.
Why do you want to join in the fun when you return to the embassy?
Wang Ai was confused, but he didn't ask. He was used to the foreign affairs style: I wouldn't tell you even if I asked!
Leonie is not as good as Wang Ai in this aspect. As for the women in the family, they are not interested in this "little prize". They are all guests of the local government. Who cares about a new sports world-football world?
Awards?
Not only are women not interested in it, but the enthusiasm of Chinese society is not very high. Six years later, Wang Ai’s eight Asian Footballer trophies are still on display in museums across the country, and including the Asian Golden Globe Award this year, Wang Ai’s five
Even the banker, but Guobo didn't even ask... Of course, it may be that they forgot, after all, it is a sports world-football world...
In this way, I was fascinated by the lake. On the morning of the 25th, Wang Ai came back from morning exercise outside and simply took a shower. Then he went downstairs to read the newspaper and eat breakfast as usual. After breakfast, he saw that there was still time and went upstairs to turn on the computer.
After reading the email sent to him by the Football Association, it included irregular official documents from various committees where Wang Ai worked, as well as resolutions from the Football Association's executive meeting, and of course Lao Gao's various briefings.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Leonie went upstairs to remind Wang Ai that it was time to leave, so she changed into a navy blue youth uniform, took a few guards and assistants, and the group arrived at the Chinese Embassy in two vans.
After chatting with the staff for a while, we arrived inside the embassy, where a group of people from the sports community were waiting. Then there was another pleasantry, and after the cameraman expressed that he was ready, the award ceremony was completed under the witness of Ambassador Lu.
The unchanging trophy and the unchanging process made Wang Ai very happy. This time, he had the calm demeanor that a grand prize should have. Like Lawrence of China, he wanted to immediately wave the red flag, and the crowds of people ended up ruining himself.
After awarding the award, Wang Ai accepted a small interview with the sports world at the embassy. This is the biggest support Wang Ai can give to the sports world and this award. To encourage others is not good for people, and it is not good for the award. Of course, Wang Ai probably understands
The Olympic champion is now embarrassed, so the interview focused on talking about international football awards. By the way, I asked Wang Ai how many awards he has won.
Wang Aiwen was confused by this. He really didn’t know how many awards he had won. The main reason was that there were too many small awards. Many of them were received by his agent, assistants and even people from the agency because he was not present.
.
Wang Ai praised the courage, perseverance and determination of the sports world, expressed optimism about the future of the Asian Golden Globe Awards, and also publicly discussed his views on this year's Golden Globe Awards and World Footballer for the first time. As the person who has won the most two awards in history, Wang Ai
Ai's statement is important enough to give back to the sports world.
"Of course our Real Madrid players have the best overall performance this year. As for Cristiano Ronaldo and I, he won the European Cup and I won the Olympic championship. Unfortunately, his was in football and mine was in track and field..."
After Wang Ai made some jokes, the interview ended. The sports team returned home with a full load, but Wang Ai did not leave because Ambassador Lu asked him to wait.
"Comrade Wang Ai, in view of your outstanding performance in Chinese sports, world sports, and world football over the years, and in view of your significant contribution in leading the progress of Chinese football, the organization has specially entrusted me to host this personal award ceremony for you.
." Ambassador Lu stood solemnly in front of Wang Ai in the small conference room and read a document in the presence of the ministers, counselors and other important people from the embassy.
Wang Ai was stunned and stood there at a loss. Is there an award ceremony?
Ambassador Lu smiled and then read out the document. Sure enough, he mentioned 9 seconds 48 in this year's Olympic Games. Compared with other Asian countries, the characterization was a little more reserved. He only mentioned that it boosted the morale of the Chinese nation, cleared up the impression of the sick man of East Asia, and improved China's performance in the competition.
Positive influence internationally.
Finally, Ambassador Lu asked Wang Ai to hand over his passport. Wang Ai turned around in confusion, took the satchel from Leonie, took out the dark red passport and put it in Ambassador Lu's hand. Ambassador Lu opened it and looked at it. The visa page was densely packed with
Entry and exit records show how busy Wang Ai has been in the past two years.
After reading it, Ambassador Lu gently put Wang Ai's passport aside, picked up the scissors, and cut off a corner. Wang Ai and Leonie behind him both trembled. What was going on?
The ambassador personally extended the visa period? This is understandable. Why cut the passport? You don’t want me anymore?
Amid Wang Ai's doubts, Ambassador Lu smiled, took a bright red passport from the first secretary's tray and placed it solemnly in Wang Ai's palm. Wang Ai lowered his head and looked carefully: Diplomatic Passport of the People's Republic of China!
"This..." Wang Ai looked at Ambassador Lu, then at the others, and couldn't help but laugh: "Is this diplomatic volunteer like me finally going to become a regular official?"
Ambassador Lu took the lead in laughing, and the serious award ceremony suddenly became humorous.
"There is no precedent in our country before, but the last athlete who significantly improved the men's 100-meter world record received a diplomatic passport from their country, which inspired us. Accompanying this passport are the diplomatic privileges of Chinese diplomats. Based on your
It is specially awarded to you for your special and major contribution. For this reason, we have notified the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the corresponding information and procedures have been completed, and the passport records have been completed. You can use it as soon as you bring it."
Seeing that Wang Ai was still confused, Ambassador Lu continued: "As for the specific use of the diplomatic passport, I have some information here for you to look at. Simply put, this is the highest-level passport recognized by all countries in the world, and it enjoys judicial and litigation rights.
Execution of immunity. However, our country’s diplomatic principle is to strictly abide by local laws and regulations and never abuse this privilege, because we have once occupied concession areas and we are well aware of the dangers of extraterritoriality. Do you understand?”
Wang Ai nodded solemnly, and Ambassador Lu smiled and said: "Your record has always been good, which is one of the reasons why my boss's boss agreed to issue it to you. In addition, I want to remind you that although you have the status of a Chinese diplomat from now on
, in layman’s terms, you are considered a diplomat of China, but according to the tax treaties between our country and Spain and more countries, your income other than the salary of a diplomat or the salary of foreign affairs activities must be taxed as usual.
Well, don’t expect that your income of hundreds of millions of euros a year will not be taxed. The Spanish government is not that generous, and of course, our government is not that generous either.”
Wang Ai laughed and then shook his head and said: "Our government is not only not generous, but also very stingy. Otherwise, I should have been called a temporary diplomatic worker instead of a volunteer in the past few years."
