Chapter 768: Opponents announced in the semifinals

For more than ten years, the Hall family's capital invested in East London, wholly or in partnership, has accumulated more than 2 billion pounds, providing more than 100,000 jobs. The number of families affected by radiation is countless. East London has a great reputation, and at the same time, it also has a good political capital for the Blaze Hall who followed Cameron's mixed career: votes.
Aldrich has long been one of the regular guests of the royal family to hold banquets. As for whether to attend, it is Aldrich’s freedom. In short, Aldridge will inevitably receive invitations on national holidays, princes’ birthdays, and queens’ birthdays. Then a voice began to spread on the upper level of the royal family: the royal family was ready to lord the Aldridge!
This is a suggestion from a member of the Prime Minister’s Cabinet. The specific reason is not clear, but when cousin Blitz called to inform him, the reason vaguely mentioned in the words was: The influence of the Hall family is The two major parties in Britain are actively fighting for it.
This incident caused Barnett's attention and reflection. He suddenly discovered at this time that perhaps it was right to keep Audridge in the football circle!
Because money can't buy honor, it can't buy the invisible influence of popular support.
Why can well-known stars in many countries enter the political arena smoothly after retiring? This is the basic influence of the people. Although the governing party and playing football are absolutely two different things, they are not equal, but if the people vote, the public will not be absolutely rational.
The Hall family has money, invests in England, and can buy people's hearts. The Hall family has Aldridge to join the football circle. In Britain, the influence of this circle is greater than any field. The vast majority of people can not watch movies. Watch TV series, do not listen to songs, but must watch the game.
The British knighthood is very biased, such as Shankly and Paisley. The Liverpool dynasty laid down is far more magnificent than Manchester United, but they only have the OBE rank, which is not enough to be the knighthood. Ferguson won the Champions League for the first time. Then he got the KBE rank higher than two ranks, and was knighted. Only the KBE or the highest rank GBE rank can use the title of SIR. (Note: Sir Alex Ferguson is controversial. There are two kinds of claims in the reference materials. Most of the popular sciences said that they were knighted by KBE, while others said that they were CBE honours. However, because of the common name of the popular public symmetry, there is SIR. Said.)
Aldridge now has a knightly medal, the order is also OBE, not enough to be a knight.
But in terms of influence and honour, public recognition, and the positive effect for British football, is it not comparable to Ferguson?
Of course not, but this is the prejudice of the British royal family.
In the absence of interest, the real powerful people will not be upset by Aldridge, and now that the Hall family has accumulated a certain degree of influence in the business and society, there are parties beginning to draw the Hall family , Requesting the lordship for Aldridge, throwing an olive branch.
During this period, Aldridge did not want the outside world to focus his attention on him, so he informed Blitz that the lordship was temporarily postponed, and it was difficult to talk about it at this time.
Aldrich doesn’t care much about whether he has a knighthood or not. If the royal family gives it, he accepts it. If the royal family doesn’t give it, it’s okay. After Ferguson’s knighthood, Aldridge doesn’t feel that the other party has become special when he sees the other party. Or there is a blessing of buff on him, which is just an honor.
Blaze told him that the tentative title will be the KBE order. It depends on the summer when he leads the England national team in the World Cup before making a final decision.
That is to say, guaranteed, Aldridge will be awarded the Knight Commander’s Medal this year. If the England World Cup diminishes in the World Cup in the summer and the public’s support for him will definitely decline, then this title will not have room for improvement, but If the English national team can at least satisfy the nationals in the summer, Aldridge is likely to be awarded the Grand Cross at the highest level and be knighted by GBE!
This will be the highest honor for people in the British football community, unprecedented.

West London is a happy place for fans of red wine and green paper. East London can't compare with it. When the night is getting thicker, Ronaldinho sits in front of a drum in a PUB in West London. He shakes his head with drumsticks and shakes his head to beat various parts of the drum. His friends accompany him, have fun, and indulge in it.
Having lived here for more than five years, Ronaldinho has known a lot of friends, and he is also a common person in such places. Don’t worry about security. The owner of PUB will do his best to ensure his safety. After all, Ronaldinho appears in Here, it can drive the popularity of PUB and be regarded as his VIP. Therefore, a good atmosphere is formed here, and no crazy fans will come to entangle. Other guests also keep a distance to watch Ronaldinho play with friends and worship him. The person will ask him to sign a name, take a picture together, or take a digital camera to record these pictures as they do now.
At this time, the network is not as developed as ten years later. Otherwise, it is estimated that Ronaldinho's private life will be broadcast live on the network simultaneously.
Avant-garde and uniquely dressed Ronaldinho put down his drumsticks when he was tired, and went to the bar with friends for a drink. At this moment, one of his friends shouted at him: "Hey, Real Madrid reversed Bayern Munich at home. Millwall's semifinal opponent will be Real Madrid!"
Ronaldinho asked the bar guy for a glass of wine, then raised his glass and smiled: "This is good news. I prefer to go to Spain than to Germany. Guys, don’t contact me in the second half of the month. I’m free. Real Madrid, next month, I will go to Scotland, bye!"
After drinking all the wine in the glass, Ronaldinho paid for it on the bar, and paid the friend's drink, and then waved to everyone and left, signing with some people on the way out of the PUB, revealing A smile on the face.
He had a bodyguard. In fact, it was not for the purpose of asking for a bodyguard, but for a driver. But later, considering that he would sometimes use a bodyguard, he simply asked for a bodyguard.
Why should I ask the driver?
Because he was driving in Brazil and caused some minor disputes, the driver’s license was revoked, and he didn’t want to take the time to take a driver’s license in the UK. He knew that even if he got his driver’s license, he might happen again soon. What should I do if I have been drunk and have been on the road for inspection?
So he did not drive the luxury car he bought, but let the bodyguard and driver go.
After getting in his car outside the PUB, the driver drove back to his new home outside of East London. He took out his phone and looked at it. Many teammates sent him a text message informing him that the opponent of Millwall in the Champions League semi-finals would be Real Madrid.
Ronaldinho did not reply to the text message, just smiled.

Yesterday morning, I returned to Barcelona from Barcelona. The team’s main players are on holiday today. And because the opponents in the league are not strong this weekend, they will make the bench lineup play. Aldridge gives them half a day off.
France, Bordeaux.
In a winery, Schneider, Nedved, Larson, and their invited guests Shevchenko and Trezeguet, and the family of five men went together to play in the city. I haven’t returned yet. The five of them are sitting on a comfortable sofa with more than ten kinds of precious red wine in front of the coffee table. They are not here to drink, but to taste wine, and watch the life and death of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich in Bernabeu. war.
The wineries here, Schneider and others have invested year after year, and they dare not say how amazing the rate of return is, but after a few years, high-quality red wine, with storage value, has begun to rise. Anyway, it is definitely more than they put money in Banks have higher returns and appear to be less risky than investing in financial markets. Every year they are investing more. Now, in addition to their football revenue and advertising business income, the biggest investment is this winery, and it is worth a lot.
Taste some red wine, finalize some new collections, and then they enjoy the game.
"To be honest, I also hope that Real Madrid will advance to the semi-finals and play Bayern Munich. That's enough!"
Schneider said with a glass of wine smiling.
Nedved and Larson smiled at each other. Before they started the game, they really worried that Real Madrid would not be able to advance. It’s a strange psychological activity. Clearly playing Bayern Munich, Millwall’s chances of winning are higher, but they just think Real Madrid should be touched!
The strong are fearless!
"I wish you farther."
Shevchenko and Trezeguet felt a bit bitter at this time. Whether as a guest or as a former teammate or friend, their blessings came from the heart.
In fact, Shevchenko would like to inquire about the rumors in the transfer market. Although Millwall has always denied the news of all players’ transfers, in Italy, speculation about the future of players such as Pirlo has become very popular, and AC Milan has also come close. Rumors.
However, considering the attitude of Nedved and others, Shevchenko dispelled this idea again.
Schneider actually doesn't care much about their teammates' future choices.
Stay, that is the teammate brother.
Leave, then be friends.
No matter who chooses to leave, they will not think that Millwall has lost anything.
They follow Aldridge, they are loyal to Millwall, and no matter how many others, they only care if you contribute all of them while wearing a Millwall jersey!
Transfer rumors, internal trends, of course Nedved they have long noticed that there are not too many secrets in the locker room, but they will not go to Pirlo, Zambrotta or others to talk about this, that will It becomes an interference, harassment, and affects the lives of others, and Pirlo’s professionalism, in training, on the field, everything shown is impeccable, which is enough, even if they really leave, Schneider they will understand.
"Where did Thierry go?"
Trezeguet was curious about what Henry would do at this time.
Schneider smiled: "Woman."
"Wow, British?"
"Well, in love."
Henry did not watch the game at night, but watched a movie in London with his new girlfriend. When he came out of the cinema, he happened to receive a text message from his teammates and saw that Real Madrid had advanced to the semi-finals. Feeling shocked, he put the phone back in his pocket and took the girl's hand to leave the cinema.
There are so many surprises this season to go to Bernabeu.
