I Am a Nobleman in England

"Hey--"

Standing in front of the coffee table in the living room of the master suite, Arthur shook his head with a wry smile and sighed softly. Looking at the message on the note in his hand, he felt extremely complicated.

"Let's separate for a while, and each of us should think about it clearly. Because if we continue like this, I don't know how long we can last."

Emilia still chose to leave, and didn't even say goodbye to him face to face. When he saw the message just now, he took out his phone and wanted to contact her, but he refused to answer them all. He had no choice but to call his cheap The sister asked her to contact Emilia.

After listening to Arthur's explanation on the phone, Eddie hung up the phone after saying "You are such an asshole", but this also made Arthur feel a little relieved.

To be honest, he never thought that Emilia's reaction would be so violent.

However, it wasn't a formal breakup after all. After a while, she might be able to figure it out and get out of the entanglement.

No one would have imagined that his own success would instead bring enormous pressure to the other party.

Regarding Emilia's choice, Arthur was not too entangled, not because he was ungrateful and ruthless, but because in his opinion, the matter was not that serious, and it would be fine when she calmed down .

What's more, at the beginning of the world's free travel, how can it stay for anyone!

Looking at the note in his hand, he breathed a sigh of relief for no reason. Arthur laughed at himself, folded the note, took out the wallet from his pocket, and put it in the wallet.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Arthur, accompanied by two directors of the club, came to No. 12 Lancaster Gate in West London, the seat of the famous FA.

As one of the oldest football organizations in the world, its offices are ancient and antiquated, and inside the building is a world of maze-like corridors and dreary meeting rooms

The FA was originally established to unify the rules of football. Naturally, it continues to maintain the final decision to modify the rules during the development of English football.

However, modern football has formed a relatively uniform global competition norm, and the traditional British concept is "if it ain't broken, don't fix it", so the FA's legislative power is basically a sword that can be used to town houses. Occasionally take it out and use it once, and often make some dumbfounding jokes.

As for the review of various football matches in England, the power to dispatch and manage referees in all leagues in England, and to discipline those involved in football activities is a very scolded function.

Therefore, the above two responsibilities of the FA are basically the relationship of "I have two news, one is bad news and the other is also bad news" for the majority of fans.

What is even more criticized is that the board members of the FA are a bunch of football laymen. So there are often fans calling, hey, you guys hurry up and die.

Of course, the FA will definitely not do such a thing as death. So, in order to change the fans' routine of eating, sleeping and spraying the FA.

Therefore, the FA recruited talented people from all walks of life to make up for its innate professionalism, established several committees and associations, and set up a rather complicated organizational structure to coordinate and manage all aspects of English football.

besides,

Seven subsidiary companies have also been established to standardize the operating system of professional football in England. The relationship between the seven companies is equivalent to seven calabash babies, each with its own skills, and after the combination is the FA brand Calabash King Kong.

The person who came to receive Arthur this time was David Gill, the deputy head of the FA. The meeting place was also in David Gill's office. The atmosphere was not as serious and formal as expected. Instead, David Gill smiled when they met Explain that Arthur made too much noise, and the FA was forced to go through a cutscene.

No way, in the past, the Football Association of England only needed to deal with a small group of relatively well-known newspaper and media reporters. When the relationship was good, it was close, and when it was bad, it was just respectful at best.

However, the media ecology and news needs have changed after entering the new century. In addition to the old football media, there are now more dirty businessmen running gossip tabloids, many newly established sports and news channels, and news paparazzi dispatched around the clock. , the continuous expansion of overseas media groups, and occasional reports on the commercial and financial pages have made the FA face strong pressure from public opinion and have to pay attention.

"...as our Premier League continues to grow in success and influence around the world, we cannot ignore the discordant and embarrassing behavior that has quietly crept up over the last two years. Back in the game.

Almost every good club has thousands of good supporters, but embarrassing behavior has become a growing problem and we have to find a way to fix it. We all have a responsibility to represent this country the right way, and that's what we try to emphasize.

It's been known that a lot of discordant behavior is caused by drinking and a freewheeling attitude on game day.

We at the FA have always hoped that people could look at themselves and start thinking, would it be a good experience if my relatives, my wife or my children were here?

The answer is definitely no. What do you think, sir? "

Although it was a formality, what David Gill said in front of him was euphemistic but hidden sharp. Make a statement.

Arthur smiled and nodded, complaining secretly in his heart. It seems that the FA is not completely reassured by him, and maybe he is really worried that the club owner with a busy football background will say or do something to encourage those embarrassing behaviors Let's make peace.

"In this regard, I fully agree with the FA's point of view. It is true that drinking and doing whatever you want on match days can easily breed a lot of troubles, especially young people of my age, who often make uncivilized and irrational behavior.

As a member of British football, we at Southampton very much hope that all fans will be civilized and rational, and not do things that are condemned to discredit the team. Fans sounded a wake-up call. "

After listening to Arthur's words, although David Gill felt a little weird, but now that he got the answer he wanted, he no longer struggled with this question. After all, he also believed that the young man in front of him was rich and calm. The elegant earl may have made mistakes because of his youth and recklessness in the past, but now he will never do those behaviors that will tarnish his image.

Unless Arthur is really a muscular bastard, but David Gill doesn't think Arthur is a bastard.

After the matter was settled, the subsequent conversation became more relaxed. Arthur could feel that David Gill was treating him with a more friendly attitude, with an obvious intention to make friends. Naturally, Arthur was not the kind of arrogant and arrogant fool. Getting to know each other and building a good relationship with each other is the beginning of his own network in football.

Finally, they exchanged opinions and ideas on youth training. Afterwards, the two jointly attended the specially prepared interviews with several media, and revealed to the outside world the process and content of the interview with Arthur by the FA. With the reputation of 'urging fans to control their own behavior: football hooligans are shameful', it can be regarded as a successful end to the controversy that has been raging outside.

Walking out of the FA office building, ignoring the media reporters who continued to pester him, under the protection of three bodyguards, he walked quickly to the Rolls Royce on the side of the road, got into the car and drove away .

However, perhaps because he has been so popular recently and the topic has continued, the reporters did not intend to let him go.

"Boss, we are being followed, and there are still three cars. It should be those reporters." The bodyguard captain Bell, who was sitting in the co-pilot, turned around and reported to Arthur Hui.

Arthur frowned slightly, pondered for a while and said, "I won't go to the Financial City, just go back to the hotel."

"Good boss."

Arthur knew that since his whereabouts were exposed, he no longer had to think about being able to move freely. As the hottest topic, the paparazzi would try their best to get news and photos about him.

Even if there are only photos, British tabloids who are good at creating bloody news will make up some pictures to satisfy the curiosity of those who eat melons. But it is too rare.

Back at the Four Seasons Hotel, it was almost five o'clock. He took out his mobile phone and called Eddie, wanting to know about Emilia's situation, but he refused to answer, which made Arthur shake his head helplessly.

Being idle for the time being, he had to take out his laptop, sort out his thoughts, and start typing.

It wasn't until around six o'clock that Arthur received a call from the front desk of the hotel that he realized that Eddie had arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel.

When seeing Eddie, Arthur looked at her gloomy expression, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "Why are you here, where is Emilia?"

"She went back to her parents' house. What's the matter with you? Those reports in the newspapers can't be true, are you and that Keeley Hazel really hooked up?" Eddie frowned, eyes wide Staring at Arthur sharply, he asked in a cold voice.

How could Arthur show timidity, also frowned slightly, and said with some regret: "How is it possible, I explained it before, it was just a commercial hype, who would have thought that Emilia would care so much..."

Eddie tilted his head and stared at Arthur with his eyes, hoping to find something on Arthur's face. After examining for a while, he finally shook his head and complained: "Maybe you hid it well enough, but the newspaper's After I saw those photos, I couldn't believe that there was no relationship between you and Ji Li, let alone Emilia.

Eyes and facial expressions can't deceive people, you may be able to hide it well, but the ninth miracle can't hide it, a woman's intuition is very accurate! "

Eddie looked at his cheap brother with a sneer, shook his head and continued helplessly: "Emilia has decided to go to the United States, and she will leave in just two days, so I told her not to be with you from the beginning, she Just don't listen, you bastard, why do you always attack my friends?"

"What do you mean?" Arthur asked with an ugly frown.

"Hehe, play dumb, right? From middle school to high school, I have lost three friends because of you, and now Emilia is probably the fourth, you are simply an asshole!" Eddie finished cursing through gritted teeth, angrily Turn around and leave.

Arthur was left standing where he was, with the corners of his mouth twitching in bewilderment. . . . . .
