Wang Ai took a deep breath again and again, and almost finished the entire report letter by letter.Then, as if I didn't believe it, I went to other reports.By the time Wang Ai finished flipping and was convinced, the car had been parked in his garage for a while.No one spoke at breakfast, Zhao Dan once accompanied Wang Ai on the visit, witnessed a six-hour conversation between an old man and a young man, and later personally took charge of the communication between the two.Every time Wang Ai sent a letter to Comrade Fidel, he sent it to the Cuban Embassy, and Comrade Fidel's reply was mostly picked up by him, and he also handed over and even reported the gifts that the pair of New Year's friends gave each other.He knew very well how much Wang Ai admired Comrade Fidel and how fascinated he was by his story.Wang Ai had already sealed the autographed book given by Comrade Fidel, and he was reluctant to even turn it over.In the past year, the frequency of communication between the two has plummeted, and I learned from the letter that the situation is not very good, but I didn't expect it to be so sudden and so fast.After eating, Wang Ai sat alone under the porch for a long time."
Brother Zhao, Ziqiang, if I go to Havana now, do you think it's appropriate?"
Back in the room, Wang Ai found the two and asked directly.The two looked at each other, Qian Ziqiang was a little confused, he was not all clear about the interaction between Wang Ai and Comrade Fidel, Zhao Dan thought about it and said calmly: "Our level is no problem, but we had better ask the embassy's opinion on this matter."
Doctor, you are not an ordinary person, you can buy a plane ticket and leave, and it happened that yesterday I gave you a diplomatic visa. ”Qian Ziqiang also figured it out, adding: "If you don't show your visa, you are still a professional player, but if you show it, you will be interpreted as China's official behavior no matter what." ”Wang Ai exhaled deeply: "Okay. ”The phone was called, and Wang Ai made his request clear in a few words, saying that Wang Ai would wait for the notice, and also explained that the ambassador was not at home, and the ambassador needed to decide personally, and there was a possibility of consultation with the Cuban embassy.After hanging up the phone, seeing that Wang Ai's face was still stunned, Zhao Dan persuaded: "Doctor, your friendship with Comrade Fidel has a strong personal nature, after all, he was retired at that time, and your visit was as a young Chinese scholar, a world-renowned football star, and a representative of China's private enterprises.But not now, one is that his death has a particularly big impact, and our country is bound to have high-level arrangements, and the other is that the whole world is also paying attention, such as the guests attending his funeral and so on.In this way, we must firstly obey the unified arrangements of the state, comprehend the spirit of the superiors, and do what we should do, and second, we must pay attention to external influences.It's okay for you to usually associate with him, after all, Maradona has been dating him for many years, and there is a precedent, but if you solemnly attend this matter at the moment, I'm afraid it will be very unfavorable to you.And you, right now, have a very important task on your shoulders. ”Qian Ziqiang added: "Our relationship with the United States may be in trouble, and the Republican candidates, who are currently very strong, are very sharp.The United States is hostile to Cuba, and if you appear at a major official event in Cuba at this time, you are likely to be attacked in one piece, damaging your commercial value, and it may not be in line with the current attitude of your superiors. ”Wang Ai sighed heavily: "That is to say, the superiors don't want me to charge in this field?"
”"Yes."
Zhao Dan nodded decisively: "Actually, some of the things you said in an interview on CCTV many years ago are complicated by your superiors.On the one hand, I applaud your integrity, but on the other hand, I am worried about you, after all, you are on the path of a sports star.For us, it is difficult to cultivate a sports star with such great influence in the world, and every bit of your influence is useful to the country, which is why CCTV interviewed you less and less, and even if the interview never involves sensitive topics, the leader of the propaganda mouth has special words. ”Wang Ai was speechless for a while, and shook his head while holding his chest for a while: "What I admire and admire, my old friend has died, but I can't move forward......
You're all right, and I agree, and I'll do the same.But as a human being, I'm sorry. ”Leonie, who was listening to the whole process, suddenly raised her voice: "The best commemoration for the revolutionary is to inherit his cause and let his ideals still shine in the world, instead of sighing and howling day and night about his departure." ”Speaking of this, in the surprise of the three men, Leonie's tall body stood up, walked over and pressed Wang Ai's shoulder: "You are also a ** person, you should do something that is in line with your identity." ”After all, one of the best houses in this most luxurious neighborhood in Madrid, has not made any noise to the outside world.While waiting for news from the embassy, Wang Ai came to the Bernabeu that afternoon to prepare to face Sporting Gijón with his teammates.This is the 13th round of La Liga, Wang Ai, who started the game, stood in the middle circle with an expressionless face before kickoff, while Leonie in the stands kept chatting with domestic texts.The women were very concerned about Wang Ai's mood at this time, after all, after so many years, they had never seen Wang Ai admire anyone so much except Comrade Fidel.Especially Xu Qinglian, although she had never met Comrade Fidel, Wang Ai shared her feelings with her for the first time after the two-day meeting, and she still remembers how excited Wang Ai was at that time.What did the fans see Wang Ai, and what did Wang Ai see Fidel.At 4:15 p.m., the game began, and Wang Ai, who started the front midfield, quickly arrived at the position to look for an opportunity to attack.The women, on the other hand, stared at the pitch, for fear that he would make some political statement in a moment of excitement.Fortunately, Wang Ai has not forgotten his mission, and Ronaldo has not forgotten, with the support of Wang Ai, he completed a hat-trick in the first half, and locked his house number for the Ballon d'Or team two days later.Wang Ai scored a long-range shot in first-half stoppage time, and instead of smiling or running, he pressed his head to his chest after the goal.Anyone who understands naturally understands it, this is Wang Ai's practical actions to comfort his old friend.People who don't understand naturally can't see anything, thinking that Wang Ai is posing for something, which makes many people breathe a sigh of relief.When I got home in the evening, the call from the embassy finally came back, and there were three opinions: "It is not recommended that Wang Ai go to Havana, because followers from all over the world have paralyzed Havana airport; suggested that Wang Ai go to the Cuban Embassy in Spain to mourn, and had already contacted the other party, three days later, in the evening; If you are able to do so, you may consider donating a batch of money and goods to the Cuban Red Cross Society to support the just cause of the Cuban people. ”Wang Ai hung up the phone and thought for a long time before nodding: "Okay, let's do it." ”
