Arriving in Bangkok at noon, a large number of people picked up the plane. Wang Ai walked down the ramp and shook hands one by one under the introduction of the translator. The leader was the top leader in charge of track and field in Thailand, who is equivalent to the director of the Track and Field Center of the China Sports Administration.
According to the principle of reciprocity, this airport pick-up treatment must have exceeded the standard, much more. But first of all, Wang Ai is bringing glory to Asia, which seems to violate the weight. Secondly, yesterday in South Korea, the head of state was a guest, and Thailand is
It was also not easy for Bian to pick him up at the airport. The standard was too low. Fortunately, they were all involved in sports. Although they were an official visiting group, they didn’t need to be too rigid. Wang Ai saw that they didn’t care, so he didn’t think much about it.
After getting on the bus, I asked Wang Ai for his opinion through an interpreter. Wang Ai said that he could go directly to the event without taking a break. He said that it was rare for him to come to Thailand and time was tight. If he could participate in more activities, he would participate in more activities.
This is considered as a reward for giving the other party extra courtesy.
The busy schedule lasted until midnight, at schools, stadiums, the Prime Minister's Office, TV stations, Chinatown... From getting off the plane to returning to the hotel room and closing the door, a dedicated Thai TV crew followed from beginning to end, saying the same thing as Wang Ai:
It’s a rare trip to Thailand, and these are precious information that will be passed down to future generations!
"Emma, I'm so exhausted!" Xu Qinglian stopped pretending after closing the door and fell into Wang Ai's arms: "If I had known I was so tired, I wouldn't have come with you."
Wang Ai was more tired than Xu Qinglian. Xu Qinglian could hide among the guards and laze around when she had nothing to do. However, Wang Ai showed his face the whole time and did not dare to relax at all under the "bright" gaze of the camera lens. Everyone said that it would be passed down to future generations.
, so I had to pretend from beginning to end, my smiling face was stiff, my waving hands were hurting, and my walking legs were sore.
But he couldn't let his wife sit on the floor, so Wang Ai had to summon up the strength to pick her up and carry her to the bathroom. As soon as the warm water was flushed, the two of them sighed. They were tired and tired now. They didn't think about it and took a shower in a hurry.
After washing, I returned to the bedroom.
"The Thai Olympic champion was given 10 million baht. How come it has become 3 million baht for you?" Before going to bed, Xu Qinglian settled the accounts as usual.
Wang Ai lay on the bed and didn't want to move or even say anything. Xu Qinglian took the check and slapped Wang Ai on the chest, and then he said lazily: "Maybe it's because Thailand's Olympic champions are too rare, so they give more, but
After all, Thailand is a developing country, and if you want to give me so much money to a foreigner, I’m afraid the Thai people will have objections.”
“Is the Thai government afraid or the Chinese government afraid?”
"Are you afraid?" Wang Ai chuckled: "I think our government may be more afraid. There is no need to do good things badly, right?"
"It's not bad. It's a little more than Japan and South Korea. It's worth more than 600,000 yuan." Xu Qinglian put the check away: "By the way, since Thailand is still relatively poor, do you want to donate it back to them? Anyway, no
No matter how much money you have, you can always donate."
"Let's ask the leader tomorrow and go to sleep first." Wang Ai turned over and put his arm on Xu Qinglian: "Good boy, let me have a good sleep. I will have to go to Bangladesh tomorrow."
The next morning, I met the deputy director comrade who also had dark circles under his eyes. Wang Ai explained the matter. The deputy director said while eating: "Why do you think there are bonuses of about 500,000 yuan? If there are too many, I will be afraid of other people's society.
There is talk that I'm sorry for your contribution, so I just mean it's nothing more, nothing less. You are the beginning of performing national tasks to help us with other tasks, and it is also fulfilling some of your obligations as an Asian player, from the business point of view.
Talking about it can also improve your image."
Wang Ai nodded frequently as he listened, and the deputy director continued: "As for donations, let's forget about the organizational meaning this time. The money is not much. You can't afford it to countries like Japan and South Korea. It's not worth it to you, and
In developing countries like Thailand and Bangladesh, if you donate your winnings on the spot, they may think you are too little and look down on them, so forget it and just keep it with peace of mind."
Wang Ai and Xu Qinglian looked at each other, and Xu Qinglian asked: "Isn't this our trip a first in history?"
"A journey of friendship, a journey of exhibition, a journey of cooperation." The deputy director smiled: "If we had athletes like your husband before, we would have started long ago. His achievements are so legendary. Organizational
Everything revolves around him."
"Then... can we keep our checks?" Xu Qinglian explained: "Money is a trivial matter. We feel that these checks from ten countries on this trip are very commemorative."
"Okay." The deputy director thought for a while: "When we return to China, we will tell the bank and withdraw the money. We can keep it after the check is invalidated."
"Do you have any organizational suggestions on how to use the money?" Wang Ai asked.
"No, you deserve this." The deputy director put down his kuaizi and smiled: "Don't think that we don't know your appearance fee. You have contributed to the country. There is no reason why we should not let you get the bonus. Besides, you have made a contribution to the country.
What I have given you is sincere, and my work starts from you, not you from me."
Wang Ai smiled and turned to look at Xu Qinglian: "Shall we donate this money too, and we will do the good deeds to the end?"
Xu Qinglian stared at Wang Ai blankly: "Am I a stingy woman? You donate billions a year. What did I say?"
Wang Ai blinked: "Isn't this asking you to think about how to donate? As you said, the money is not much and the matter is not small, so how to donate requires some thinking."
As expected, Xu Qinglian's attention was diverted, and she thought about it and said: "I can't handle the big projects, and the small projects don't match the significance... You can donate it to your alma mater and set up a scholarship, so that these millions can be spent for a long time."
"Scholarship, the National People's Congress doesn't care about this, right? Besides, I got it in sports, and the National People's Congress doesn't have a sports department."
"It sounds like there are physical education departments in primary and secondary schools." Xu Qinglian rolled her eyes at Wang Ai and continued thinking: "Then give it to primary and secondary schools. The money is enough and the meaning is not bad. Well... forget it about middle schools. I'll just give it to your primary school.
Well. Ten Asian countries subsidize one rural primary school, eh, that’s a lot of face!”
Wang Ai was excited when he heard this: "From now on, Hongqi Primary School will have an explosion of talents!"
Comrade Deputy Director-General just smiled and listened to the joke between the two-digit superstar and the famous economic theorist and settled the matter. He could only sigh that he is really rich.
After breakfast, the group set off in a hurry. Since we have a good relationship with Thailand, we arranged a lot of activities. This morning was a busy one. Anyway, the 3 million baht was definitely not wasted. When Wang Ai got on the plane, she was moved.
They all cried and shouted "Come again when you have time"!
The plane landed in Dhaka in the evening. The airport in the twilight was crowded with people. On the plane, Wang Ai heard that the population density of Bangladesh was the same as that of Tianjin. After a simple welcome ceremony, Wang Ai and his team arrived quickly.
After having some food and resting for a while at the Bangladesh Hotel, Wang Ai and his team set off again to the Bangladesh National Stadium to participate in a football match as foreign aid.
