Chapter 702
When Gao Xiaodong walked out of the Imperial Capital International Airport, he was immediately surrounded by thousands of fans wearing Inter Milan jerseys and national team jerseys.
The last time Gao Xiaodong returned to China, he was just the best newcomer in Europe. This time he returned to China, he was already a superstar who won the triple crown as a core identity.
When Gao Xiaodong won the championship, many Chinese fans participated in the celebrations at the Bernabeu and Meacha, but the vast majority of Chinese fans could only watch TV.
Before Gao Xiaodong returned to China this time, Zhang Qi had already returned to China and arranged for Gao Xiaodong to participate in an event to interact with fans. This time, the pick-up was one of the events.
Faced with enthusiastic fans holding scarves and flowers and gifts, Gao Xiaodong no longer felt as frivolous as he returned to China a few times before, just thinking about how to escape. Now there are bodyguards on both sides, assistant Xiao Le is by his side, and dozens of guards brought by Zhang Qi have arranged a passage. Gao Xiaodong can finally interact with the fans openly and easily.
"Hello everyone! Thank you for your support! Without you, I would not have achieved such results..."
Gao Xiaodong held three championship medals in one hand, followed by flowers, chocolates, dolls and other gifts handed over by fans, and then handed them to Xiao Le. After a while, Xiao Le hugged her.
The last time he didn't win the Champions League, the domestic fans were already crazy, and now they are even more fanatical. After a while, Xiao Le couldn't even hold the gifts, so he could only ask Zhang Qi and a vice president of Xinglong Company to help him hold them.
Not only fans came to pick up the plane, but also dozens of football reporters.
Nowadays, the Chinese football team has been very anti-corruption and anti-gangsters. Many national players who entered the 2002 World Cup have been admitted to the detention center. China's football level has plummeted and its reputation has fallen to the bottom. Domestic journalists are disdainful of Chinese football and have lost interest in making fun of them. Many journalists have changed their careers or gone to other fields. At its peak in 2002, China had 8,000 football reporters, and now it is said that less than a thousand are available.
Against this backdrop, although Gao Xiaodong's success cannot save Chinese football, it has become a life-saving straw for Chinese media. By consuming Gao Xiaodong, several major professional football newspapers in China can barely maintain it.
When Gao Xiaodong signed the fans, the reporters also raised hot issues that fans were concerned about.
"Welcome to return from Xuanyu, Xiaodong, do you know what our Chinese fans want to know the most now? That's why you are so powerful this season?"
The person who asked the question was Gao Xiaodong's old acquaintance, Li Xiang, a reporter from Sports Weekly.
Gao Xiaodong shook the gold medal and said with an innocent expression: "I don't know, I'm helpless, what should I do if I'm so awesome?"
"The next important question is for our Chinese Inter Milan fans. If Mourinho leaves Inter Milan, will you leave too?"
Li Xiang asked again.
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "Reporter Li Da, I am different from Mourinho. I have a contract. I don't go wherever I want to go. When I come out to play football, the most important thing is to respect the contract."
Another reporter asked: "Xiaodong, you became the first player in China and Asia to win the triple crown at the age of 20. This is something that many superstars have not achieved in their entire careers. Will this have any impact on your future?"
Gao Xiaodong answered a lot of similar questions in Europe, but today Gao Xiaodong said it more arrogant and domineeringly, "It has a great influence, which makes me more confident. I feel very lucky. I have won so many championships at the age of 20, but this will not stop me because I am a man who wants to become the king of football."
Seeing Gao Xiaodong's domineering look, there was a burst of exclamation at the scene, and many little stars appeared in the eyes of the fans, and they were worshipped endlessly.
"Did you see it? This is my idol!"
"What I like most is Xiaodong's domineering aura! It's much more than Messi!"
"It's much more natural than Luo, and I'm not pretending at all!"
"This is a show of strength!"
"Oh! When will we be able to bring our national team awesome?"
"The national team is so bad. I guess Xiaodong won't expect it to come!"
...
While the fans were talking, the reporter continued to ask, "Xiao Dong, you are the number one player in China now, but to become the king of football, it is not possible without the national team's results. You have been so successful in the club. Have you considered leading the national team to the World Cup?"
Gao Xiaodong discussed the national team issues with his team in advance, so he would definitely not be able to avoid them, but he should be very cautious when answering.
Gao Xiaodong said: "The South African World Cup will be about to open. Do we have a chance to play the World Cup now?"
The reporter said: "There is no hope in this game, but what about the next Brazil World Cup?"
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Let's talk about the next session next session. Now I don't want to talk about the national team anymore. When I think of playing football with a group of criminals, I feel creepy and ask the next question."
Then another reporter said: "Xiaodong, last time you were successfully selected into the Golden Globes roster. Do you think you can win the Golden Globes this time?"
Gao Xiaodong said: "I heard that the Golden Globe Awards will be reformed this time. I don't know what will happen after the reform. But this year is the World Cup year. Generally, the champions will win the Golden Globe Awards. I will be satisfied if I can enter the top three."
Another fan opened his brain hole and shouted: "If the reform becomes a fan voting, we fans will definitely give you the Golden Globe Award."
Gao Xiaodong laughed loudly, bowed to the fans, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but even if you can't get it this time, I will get it sooner or later. I'm only 20 years old, it's still early."
Another reporter asked: "I won the triple crown last season. What are your goals this season?"
Gao Xiaodong said without hesitation: "Of course I will still win the Triple Crown. I will not stop moving forward."
Another reporter asked: "It seems that you have heard that you did not sign Inter Milan's contract renewal. Can you tell me why?"
Gao Xiaodong said vaguely: "There are some small problems. Once Inter Milan's new coach is in place, it may be clear."
"Inter Milan achieved great success last season, but Inter Milan's age structure is too old. Will players lose their fighting spirit after success?"
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "How to say this, I must be one year older, and my desire for championships is definitely not as high as this year. However, I believe that the new coach and Chairman Morati will solve this problem."
"For the last question, we would like to ask, China's football has fallen to a low point. What suggestions do you have for our China football?"
Gao Xiaodong thought for a while and said, "My suggestion is to push down and rebuild, starting from youth training. Just like our country has a hope star in Portugal, it is good to do it. Only by doing practical things slowly and laying the foundation can our country's football level be improved. More than half of 11 people in a team bets and sells football, and no one can win."
After answering the last question, Gao Xiaodong said to the reporters and fans: "Thank you for coming to support me. I am very happy. I will win more championships in the future to repay everyone's support. Let's stop here today, goodbye."
