Chapter 299: Birthday Present
Although he slept very late yesterday, Gao Xiaodong woke up on time at half past six the next day.
After going to the toilet and changing into autumn and winter sportswear, Gao Xiaodong went for a run on the beach outside, and when he came back, Xiao Le had already started preparing breakfast.
Washing his face and brushing his teeth, surfing the Internet to check the news and information on QQ, Gao Xiaodong unexpectedly discovered that his father had left a message for him.
You are in Portugal, and your mother and I are in Huaguo. The time is a bit messy. Your mother and I didn't know which day is your birthday, and we can't celebrate your birthday. Buy yourself a cake and eat it. Don't forget to brag Make a wish with a candle, don’t worry about whether it works or not, just say it after you make a wish—the meaning of father and husband.”
Although Gao Xiaodong's family has bought a computer long ago, Gao's father has almost never sent Gao Xiaodong a message through QQ. Online name: Yiqi Qianqiu.
Gao Xiaodong thought about the time, and it was afternoon in Huaguo, so he called his father.
Comrade Fuyi, can you not write QQ as a letter, and besides, you have never celebrated my birthday since I was in junior high school, so don't act like you can't celebrate my birthday, okay?
There was a rattling sound from the other end of the phone, and there was a noise: Old Gao, play cards quickly. Whose phone is it? my son. Is it your star son?
After returning to Porto, Gao Xiaodong's annual salary soared five times, and there was also a jersey share, which was also a huge sum after personal income tax was removed.
Gao Xiaodong was afraid of scaring his parents, so he didn't dare to call them all, and only called them 8,500 euros a month. But this also made Gao’s father and mother so excited and nervous that they couldn’t fall asleep all night. 8,500 euros is 85,000 yuan in RMB. In Lucheng, workers’ wages are less than 2,000 yuan, and they have to work for more than 4 years. In order to earn the money that Gao Xiaodong called them for a month.
The son earns so much money, obviously he won't need Gao's father to make money to buy a house and marry a wife in the future, and Gao's father is not so concerned about the seafood business. He often works all morning and then goes out to play cards and fish in the afternoon.
Gao Xiaodong said angrily: Comrade Gao Fuyi, if you talk to me while playing cards again, I will die.
Don't play anymore. Gao's father hurriedly left the poker table, walked aside, put on a fatherly face, and said, Xiaodong, you have wronged me as a father. After entering junior high school, it's not that we didn't give it to you. When you celebrate your birthday, you spend it with your classmates every time, and after a long time, you forget about it.
Gao Xiaodong thinks about it too. Since entering junior high school, he has not celebrated his birthday at home. At first, his parents even bought cakes for him.
Later, every time I celebrate my birthday, I have to go home after 12 o'clock at night, and even surf the Internet all night, so my parents don't buy it.
Gao Xiaodong said: Okay, Comrade Gao Fuyi, I heard from my mother that you gamble every day, this is not a good sign.
Father Gao said: Don't listen to your mother, am I a gambler? Doing business every day is so tiring, I just play cards to relax, and it's boring to grind my hands, so I added ten or eight yuan to the lottery. Our family income is so high. What is this lottery?
Gao Xiaodong said: No matter how big the family is, it's not enough to gamble. You told me this yourself. I'm afraid that the more you gamble, the more addicted you will become.
Gao's father said: Small bets are fun, but big bets are negative. I understand this better than you.
Gao Xiaodong said: Okay, pay attention to your body, fishing is better than playing cards.
Father Gao said: I know, you have to be careful when you play football, don't work so hard, you won't be able to make a lot of money if you get injured, your husband always said that when you work in the unit, you just need to be smarter, and you can still be popular as a fool. If you are honest, you will still get a bear.
Gao Xiaodong laughed, and heard the voice calling Father Gao to play cards on the phone again, and said: Got it, I'm going to eat, you go play cards, tell my mother, don't worry about me, I'm fine.
You child, is playing cards more important than talking to your son? I haven't called for so long, and I want to talk to you a few more words. Although Gao's father wanted to play cards very much, he pretended to be reluctant look.
Then say a few more words, the meal is too hot, let's cool it down. Gao Xiaodong said with a smile.
When Father Gao heard this, he quickly said: It's not good for the stomach if it's cold, so hurry up and eat it while it's hot, don't call it, it's expensive, I'll hang up.
Seeing Gao Xiaodong hang up the phone, Xiao Le said, You two have a very good relationship, you sound like friends.
Gao Xiaodong said with a grin: It's just my son, if he's not good to me, he's good to whom.
Xiao Le smiled, took out a gift box, and said, Happy birthday, I bought a new iPhone yesterday, and I didn't have time to give it to you.
Gao Xiaodong said: I don't already have an iPhone.
Xiao Ledao: This mobile phone has added 3G network function and car GPS function. You are a star player, of course you must lead the trend.
I'm a figure in Portugal and China. What kind of trend can I lead? Gao Xiaodong took the gift box, opened it and looked carefully, and said, It's really exquisite and beautiful. Thank you for your birthday present, Miss Le.
Xiao Le smiled and said, As long as you like it, let's eat.
Gao Xiaodong put away the phone and said, Sister Xiaole, which phone are you using now?
Xiao Le said: I still use the original mobile phone.
Gao Xiaodong said: It's still the old model, Sister Xiaole, you can also get a new one, and the money will come from me.
Xiao Le said: No, this old model is fine.
Gao Xiaodong said: You said this can use 3G to surf the Internet, and that is very important to you, so just treat it as a work need, or else, I'll tell President Chen to ask him to reimburse you.
Xiao Le hurriedly said: Don't tell Mr. Chen that after Chairman Long resigns and Adidas no longer sponsors, the company's funds are very tight.
Gao Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, remembering that last time Chen Qiang told him that Adidas would no longer sponsor Long Yaoji when he went to study, but he didn't expect that Xinglong Company would be short of funds at the very beginning, he pondered for a while, and said: Oh, That's it.
Xiao Le said: Hurry up and eat, otherwise it will be cold.
After breakfast, it was still early for training, Gao Xiaodong came to his bedroom and checked his savings.
Last season's appearance fee, winning award, goal award, and championship award combined were 206,000 euros. The original salary at Rexos, plus the current salary at Porto minus personal income tax was 242,000 euros, a percentage The 50th portrait right was a pleasant surprise. In less than three months, Gao Xiaodong got close to 10,000 euros for the jersey commission alone. I signed a contract with Uber in China and got the first installment of 500,000 RMB. After all the deposits are combined, after deducting the expenses, the commission for the broker, and the money for the parents, there is still 425,000 euros left.
This is the first time for Gao Xiaodong to look at all the deposits together. After reading it, Gao Xiaodong became excited. I am also a millionaire, although it is in RMB.
After checking the deposit, Gao Xiaodong called Chen Qiang and said, Brother Chen, are you short of money? If you are short of money, I still have some here, you can use it to turn around first.
Chen Qiang was very surprised and said, Who did you hear that I was short of money?
Gao Xiaodong said: Sister Xiaole said that your company's cash flow is tight.
Chen Qiang smiled and said: Actually, the final payment from Adidas did not arrive some time ago. I deliberately took the opportunity to beat the staff. Now that the final payment has arrived, I don't need it. But thank you, Xiaodong, for your kindness. Brother took it.
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, Brother Chen, you really don't have any shortages. If you really don't have any shortages, I'll buy a luxury car and pretend to be aggressive after I return to China.
Chen Qiang smiled and said: There is no shortage. If you want to buy a good car, I will help you find someone. What do you like? Ferrari?
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: I know that everyone with four wheels likes Ferrari, but I don't know if I can afford it.
Chen Qiang said: Luxury cars also have their own advantages and disadvantages. I will help you find someone later, and it will definitely be the best price.
Gao Xiaodong said: Okay, thank you Brother Chen, I'm going to train.
goodbye.
Putting down the phone, Chen Qiang was very emotional. In this day and age, even if you open your mouth to borrow money, it is good if others can give it to you. He has never seen the initiative to lend money to others. Although he has helped Xiaodong a lot in the past, I also lent him money, but it is not easy for Gao Xiaodong to do this. In this era, there are many ungrateful people. Gao Xiaodong is very reliable as a friend, but terrible as an opponent. The partner is very shrewd, in short, he is still a good person.
