The next day, on the morning of January 22, Qiao Anchen separated from his coaches and teammates and returned to Madrid with his parents, aunt and others.
Of course, there was no room for my uncle's car, but the driver, Albert Vernal, had already driven Qiao Anchen's own car over, so we could go back together.
After returning to Madrid, I went directly to my aunt's house instead of going home.
Qiao Huamei and others had prepared the ingredients, and when they got home, everyone worked together to make the New Year's dinner, which was put on the table just before 14 o'clock.
At the same time, tv-5 reporter Xiong Hancai and his assistant followed the whole process, and then added yesterday's game interview materials, as well as some training scenes that were allowed to enter the Atletico Madrid training base in the early stage, and edited them together and put them in another file.
Broadcast on the program "Football Night".
Qiao Anchen invited Xiong Hancai and Xiong Hancai to have a New Year dinner together, but they refused. They were only responsible for filming and would not get involved in the family life of the interviewees.
However, Xiong Hancai and the two of them did not refuse to have a drink each and toast together to celebrate New Year's Eve.
Then, Qiao Anchen and his family began to eat the New Year dinner slowly and waited for the Spring Festival Gala to start.
It is said that people who have traveled abroad will appear more patriotic, and it is true.
Except for those who are determined to immigrate, others who travel abroad and work abroad will have a more intuitive understanding of the differences at home and abroad, and then become more patriotic.
Let’s talk about buildings. Many buildings and roads in developed countries in Europe and the United States were built decades ago. Now they have become dilapidated and there is no money to rebuild them.
In China, due to the rapid economic development, many high-rise buildings and highways have been built in the past ten or twenty years, which is very pleasing to the eye.
In terms of infrastructure, China is really not afraid of developed countries.
In addition, language, skin color, and some or no discrimination will make people who go abroad feel the deep malice of foreigners and miss their motherland even more.
For example, Qiao Huamei and Cao Guanhong and his wife, both of whom are middle- and high-level cadres dispatched by the company, will also encounter many things that make them feel frustrated in Spain.
If it weren't for the higher salary and the presence of their nephew Qiao Anchen, they would have fled back to the country long ago.
The same goes for Qiao Anchen himself. Before the start of this season, he was a marginal partner in the Atletico Madrid youth team. Naturally, he would be bullied by local children from time to time. If he hadn't pushed back forcefully, he might have been in such an unstable place in life.
The familiar place was depressed.
Therefore, when we were in China, people were not too keen on watching the Spring Festival Gala. On New Year's Eve, they spent most of their time playing mobile phones, playing mahjong, etc.
But now that we are abroad, everyone misses the Spring Festival Gala very much. Not to mention that there are reporters filming. Even if there are no reporters, Qiao Anchen and others will not play with their mobile phones or play cards. Instead, they will concentrate on watching the Spring Festival Gala and will not miss any program.
Of course, you can't receive it on TV, so you can only use your computer to watch the live broadcast online.
At 14:00 noon on January 22, Spanish local time, which is 20:00 pm on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, domestic time, the 2012 Year of the Dragon CCTV Spring Festival Gala officially started.
While eating New Year's dinner and watching the Spring Festival Gala, the whole family had a great time.
When we were in China, everyone was playing cards and using mobile phones, but now we are abroad, and now it really feels like we are celebrating the New Year.
Although some of the programs in the 4 and a half hour Spring Festival Gala looked average, there were also Sa Dingding's "All Things Are Born", Faye Wong/Eason Chan's "Because of Love", Liu Qian's magic, Li Yugang's "The Drunken Concubine", and Yang Liping's dance ""
Wonderful programs such as "The Love of Birds" made everyone applaud.
At 18:00, which is 24:00 in China, it is considered the Chinese New Year's Eve. Everyone went downstairs to set off several boxes of fireworks, which attracted neighbors to come out to watch.
After asking about the Chinese New Year, everyone also sent congratulations to Qiao Anchen and others. Of course, some fans also asked Qiao Anchen for autographs and photos.
In the end, even the police were alerted, thinking something had happened, and ran over to ask. When they saw Qiao Anchen, even the police asked Qiao Anchen for his autograph.
Of course, Qiao Anchen also used his mobile phone to take pictures of the New Year dinner, watch the Spring Festival Gala, and set off fireworks, posted it on Weibo, and said "Happy New Year" to the fans.
After returning home in the evening, Qiao Anchen received many calls from his teammates to congratulate him on the New Year. Qiao Anchen was still a little strange. It wasn't until he received a call from the club's general manager, Clemente Villaverde, that he realized that the club had
I sincerely expressed my congratulations to Qiao Anchen on the official website.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Anchen opened Atletico Madrid's official website, and sure enough, on the homepage was Qiao Anchen's photo and a bilingual message in Chinese and Spanish that said "Atlético Madrid Football Club wishes Qiao Anchen and his family a Happy New Year."
Below are the blessings from countless Atletico Madrid fans:
"Happy New Year to Qiao Anchen!"
"My family lives near Aunt Qiao Anchen's house, and I saw the fireworks they set off, haha!"
"Was it Qiao Anchen who was setting off fireworks before? I saw it too, but it was a bit far away. I didn't know it was Qiao Anchen and the others who set off the fireworks."
"How do you calculate the Chinese New Year? There seems to be no rules?"
"I can't understand the Chinese calendar, but I have been to China and the Spring Festival is quite lively."
"If you want to experience the Chinese Spring Festival, come to Chinatown. Chinatown is very lively these two days, and there are lion dances and dragon lanterns."
"Really? Where is it? I'll go check it out tomorrow."
"I will also go and have a look. I would like to thank China for sending such a powerful player to Atletico Madrid."
"It's really amazing. He scored 8 goals in 3 games. Even Messi can't compare. I'm full of expectations for this year's game."
"yes!"
In addition to teammates, of course there are also relatives and friends in China, as well as classmates from elementary school.
Even some of his teammates from the National Junior Team called Qiao Anchen to wish him a Happy New Year.
When he was fired, no one stood up to speak for him. Now some people have taken the initiative to contact him and build relationships.
Even if the Football Committee announces a permanent ban on him, it cannot stop their determination to get close to Qiao Anchen.
Therefore, an actor said it well: "When you are down, you are surrounded by bad people, and everyone wants to plot against you and bully you; when you are successful, you are surrounded by good people, and everyone greets you with a smile and greets you.
, that’s great.”
The next day, January 23, the Spring Festival, when the team resumed training, Qiao Anchen extended his leave for one day and took his parents to attend a New Year group visit hosted by the Chinese Embassy in Spain.
This is a program held by the embassy every year. Overseas Chinese who are relatively successful and well-known in Spain are invited to participate. It is not only for emotional connection, but also for united front work.
As the only Chinese player currently playing in the five major leagues, Qiao Anchen shocked the world by scoring 8 goals in three games. Therefore, he also received an invitation from the embassy and was allowed to bring his parents with him.
At the group meeting, although these overseas Chinese with successful careers did not chase stars and ask for autographs like young people, many people still invited Qiao Anchen to take a photo with him and encouraged him to keep up his efforts and bring glory to Chinese football.
