Chapter 542

When Gao Xiaodong was in a daze after replying to the message, Xiao Le came and said, "Xiaodong, Turin Sports News will award you the Golden Boy Award in Meacha tomorrow. You have to prepare your acceptance speech."

Gao Xiaodong asked: "Have the Turin Sports Daily explained their defense of racial discrimination?"

Xiao Le thought for a while and said, "No, what's wrong? Do you really want to refuse to receive the award?"

At this time, the monkey also came over and said, "Xiaodong, you have pretended a little too much."

Gao Xiaodong shook his head and said, "But this is a matter of principle."

This fat man actually talked about principles, and both Monkey and Xiao Le couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Le also said: "This is not a principle, and it is not that the Turin Sports Daily has racist behavior. People kindly give you awards. How ugly it is to reject it. If you are in Italian football, you must give them some face."

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "They sing praises for racial discrimination. Why do I give them face? There is no bonus for the Golden Boy Award, what are my losses?"

The monkey pondered slightly and said, "Actually, when you think about it carefully, Xiaodong's refusal to receive the prize is a hype method. The selection results have come out. If Xiaodong doesn't receive it, it is impossible to re-select it. Moreover, if he refuses to receive the prize, Xiaodong will become an anti-racial fighter, which will help improve his reputation and status in society. In comparison, offending the Turin Sports News is nothing."

Gao Xiaodong stretched out his bear's paw and patted the monkey's shoulder, "You have made great progress in Gadfoot's company, and you speak in a bunch of ways."

Xiao Le hesitated: "This has never been in the history of the European Golden Boy Awards. Is this appropriate? Should I tell the club?"

The monkey now thought it through and said, "It's because I have never seen the hype before. I think it's okay to tell the club or not. This is Xiaodong's personal problem, but it's better to get the support of Chairman Morati and Mourinho."

Gao Xiaodong said: "It's right, I'm calling the chairman and coach."

Before tomorrow's game, Turin Sports will come to Mecha to present the awards. Time is urgent, Gao Xiaodong immediately called the club chairman Moratti and coach Mourinho, telling them about his plan to refuse to receive the award.

Inter Milan has always been dominated by international players and has many black people. Morati hates racial discrimination very much. He firmly supports Gao Xiaodong's idea and definitely holds a press conference for Gao Xiaodong.

Mourinho is a utilitarian. He supports things that are beneficial to him, and opposes things that are unfavorable to him. This matter has nothing to do with him. Of course, he chose to support his confidant general Gao Xiaodong.

With the support of the club, Gao Xiaodong held a press conference at the Pinetina Training Center that night, telling reporters that he refused to accept the awards from the Turin Sports Daily.

"I am very grateful for the trust of the media and for the love that Turin Sports has given me. The Golden Boy Award is the most important award that players under the age of 21 can win. I think it is no less than the Golden Ball Award. I am very proud to be selected as the European Golden Boy. But I am sorry, because of the different views and positions on the issue of racial discrimination in the Italian Derby, I cannot accept the award from Turin Sports, unless everyone can remain consistent on this issue. Football has nothing to do with life and death, but the dignity and honor of football relations. I hope that everyone will be praised for their skills and will not be insulted by their skin color."

After the news that Gao Xiaodong refused to accept the awards from Turin Sports News spread, not only the entire football world was in a panic, but people outside the football field were also shocked.

Some people refuse to accept the Nobel Prize, but no one has ever rejected the awards in football. Gao Xiaodong is simply a strange flower in the world football world, and he actually did such a shocking thing.

For a time, not only sports media, major comprehensive media, major portal websites, and major TV stations all included this matter in important sections and periods to report.

Anti-racial discrimination is politically correct all over the world. No one will say that Gao Xiaodong is wrong on this, but people who don’t like Gao Xiaodong and those who have ulterior motives agree that Gao Xiaodong opposes racial discrimination, they also point out that Gao Xiaodong is making a big deal and is suspected of hype.

Gao Xiaodong's sudden attack made Turin Sports News fall into a passive position. The result of the cancellation of the Golden Boy Award is a bit of a joke. Now it is too embarrassing to explain the remarks he made during the Italian derby. How can we do the best of both worlds?

After urgent consultations, the Turin Sports Daily issued a statement saying that the Golden Boy Award was selected by more than 30 authoritative media in Europe. It is fair and serious. It will not be cancelled because the winner himself refuses. Whether to receive the award is Gao Xiaodong's freedom. The Turin Sports Daily is only responsible for selecting the person who deserves the most.

The crisis public relations of the Turin Sports Daily are very beautiful. Although Gao Xiaodong refused to receive the award and swept their face, they proved to the world the fairness and impartiality of the Golden Boy Awards through this atmospheric statement, making the Golden Boy Awards selection look more authoritative.

Before the sixth round of the Champions League, the original Golden Boy Awards ceremony was cancelled and became a small event for Inter Milan to interact with fans. However, Inter Milan fans in the stands were still shouting "Gao Xiaodong! Golden Boy! Gao Xiaodong! Golden Boy!".

During training today, Gao Xiaodong clearly felt that his teammates became more respectful to him after he refused to receive the Golden Boy Award. Etoo, Montali and Balotelli not only respected him, but also became much closer to him.

This made Gao Xiaodong very proud. He felt that this pretending was good. Not only did he win the Golden Boy Award, he won the reputation of a racist fighter, but he also won the respect of his teammates. This kind of killing three birds with one stone seems to have to be done frequently in the future.

After the interactive game performance of the fans, the players from both sides walked into the stands, exchanged team flags and emblems, picked the sides, and prepared to start the game.

In the first round, Rubin of Kazan defeated Inter Milan 1:0, but Gao Xiaodong was unable to play due to the suspension. This time, Berdeyev arranged the same formation as the first round, hoping to create miracles again.
