7號,傳奇偶像的背號
雖然不是最愛,但我喜歡7這個數字。過去我代表里斯本競技預備隊時曾經穿過這個
背號,但升上一隊以後28號這個新背號對我的意義更重大了。
這也是我在里斯本競技唯一的背號,它總是讓我想起我在葡萄牙踢球的甜美回憶。我
剛到達曼徹斯特,見過弗格森爵士進行簽署合約儀式後,爵士問了我:「羅納爾多,你希
望穿什麼背號?」「28!」我斬釘截鐵地回答,尤其我發覺在曼聯沒人擁有這個背號。
「不,你得穿上7號!」我沒有反駁爵士,也只有答應他。
7號對曼聯俱樂部、支持者們、對曾今效力過這個俱樂部以及那些對英國足球和這個
偉大的俱樂部特別瞭解的人來說,這是個傳奇的數字。如今這是我的號碼,我很自豪能穿
上7號戰袍。在那時候,那個令人興奮的時刻,我根本就沒有想過喬治貝斯特、羅布森、
坎通納、或者是貝克漢姆,這些在俱樂部歷史中的神聖的名字 。到來後來我才想起來,
「等等,7號球員對俱樂部有著無法估量的價值。」自那以後我明白俱樂部給我這個號碼
的同時,也給予了我巨大的責任。我要去傳承這份榮耀。穿上曼聯球衣已經足夠重要,穿
上7號球衣更是一份額外的激勵。
拿到7號並沒有降低或者提升我的志向。我覺得我應該給這件球衣帶來榮耀。我相信
我正在這樣做,我不會讓我的教練失望。事實上這只是個圖標,有著重要作用和歷史意義
的數字。在我的球衣上印著這個號碼對我來說是一種榮耀。我不會往回看,但是如果我繼
續穿著28號,誰能說它不能成為一個具有歷史意義的數字?當然我只是在開玩笑……
7,世界上新的奇跡
我明白了7所蘊含的其他意思,它代表著「完美整體的象徵」。
我不敢說這個定義包括我自己。我只想說我選擇7是世界上新的奇跡,也可以形容成
一個完美的整體。
我提起這個話題是因為我有幸被邀請成為一個「提議各國代表保護文明藝術建築作品
的國際大使」。這個活動的組織者提議我是「世界體育界的奇跡」的其中之一。我對他感
激不盡,我自然也愉快且自豪的接受了。
雅典衛城(希臘)、阿爾漢布拉宮殿(格蘭納達)、吳哥窟(柬埔寨)、奇琴-伊察
古城(墨西哥)、基督像(巴西)、羅馬競技場(意大利)、復活節島(智利)、埃菲爾
鐵塔(法國)、長城(中國)、聖索菲亞大教堂(土耳其)、清水寺(日本)、克里姆林
宮和紅場(俄羅斯)、馬丘比丘(秘魯)、新天鵝堡(德國)、佩特拉古城(約旦),金
字塔(埃及)、自由女神像(美國)、悉尼歌劇院(澳大利亞)、泰姬陵(印度)、通布
圖(馬裡),這21個建築將被投票,產生「世界新7大奇跡」。這些建築都是從第一輪100
個候選以及第二輪77個候選中精心挑選出來的。就我所知,這是全世界範圍內最大型的一
次投票。
另外,這也是第一次所有人可以參與到這個計劃中,因為它包括所有大陸以及文化。
它也會在世界歷史中名垂千古,因為在那個時刻,更直接的說,超過3691984877個人因同
一個目標聯合起來:把地球變得更和平、美麗,未來具有更多傳承的歷史。
在2007年9月5日雅典舉行的「世界巡遊」開幕式上披露,這次活動將葡萄牙選為這項
重要且具有歷史意義的活動的最後一站。這次活動將跑遍所有候選國家的紀念碑,每個國
家的最傑出人士都將參與此次活動。
在這裡我也再次感謝組織者給予我的榮耀,選擇我成為國際大使。
7,新屋的游泳池的形狀
當我還是是個孩子的時候,我就有一個夢想:給我、我的家人以及我的朋友蓋一棟大
房子,但也不僅僅是一棟房子,而是一個家,那裡我可以感到很舒服。那不是一個烏托邦
式的願望,我將擁有我夢想中的房子。一個大大的家庭式的房子,裡面有我一直希望擁有
的東西。
我把我的計劃告訴了門德斯。他也馬上給了我一個建築師的名字,Eduardo Souto
Moura,這位設計師在布拉格體育場有很多其他的作品。安東尼奧,里斯本競技的主席,
他和我的關係也很好,他也告訴我 Moura 是能讓我的願望實現的理想人選。後來事實也
是那樣的。
我們的第一次接觸讓我們建立了堅固的聯繫。我被他的簡潔和謙虛的態度所吸引。在
晚飯結束的時候,他拿了一張餐巾,就在上面畫出我這個計劃的框架,令我感到吃驚。我
發現這就是我要找的能對我房屋的設計負責的人。
跟其他所有的房屋一樣,我的將會比較個人化。我不會透露太多的細節,每個人都知
道我是多麼的注重自己的隱私。然而,我可以透露數字7將在其中佔有顯著地位。這個計
劃要在兩年後實現,我的房子裡將有7個房間,游泳池的將會被建成7的形狀,這是我對
Moura 建築師的特殊要求,當然他也以一種異常的方式來進行構思。
7,未來的一個計劃
新房子將是我迄今為止做出的最大的一次投資。由於它實現了我的夢想,所以也是合
理的。
我不想成為一個錢奴。這也意味著在遙遠的未來,當我的職業足球生涯結束後,我會
靠著我賺的錢生活,而不是為了那些錢而活。
我對我現在掙得錢很滿意,現在我必須說我不會去抱怨什麼。因為我沒有經濟上的問
題,我的家庭也一樣。同樣的,當我參加分組訓練,住在訓練營,在里斯本競技時我每月
拿50歐元時我也沒有抱怨過。在我職業生涯的第一年,我決定讓我的母親為我保管錢。所
以,我掙得每一分錢都不經過我手,都是直接給她的。當我需要去買一些東西時,我母親
就會給我她認為足夠的錢,基本上都是買些化妝品和衣服之類的。當我賺了50歐元,他會
給我25。當我和一線隊簽第一份合同,我稍稍多掙了點,我能掙250歐元。我拿其中的50
歐元,剩下的交給我媽保管,她會把剩下的當資金一樣存起來。我的姐姐和父親有時會給
我一小筆錢,這是他們辛辛苦苦攢下來的。這也是為什麼到今天,他們需要什麼我就會去
幫助他們的原因。如果我們連自己的家人都不幫,我們還回去幫助誰?
如果我們不能正常的享受生活,有一筆可觀的銀行存款數目又有什麼用處?我現在22
歲,我相信我比我52歲的母親更加享受生活。當然,我也知道為未來做準備的必要,但是
我不想讓自己成為物質主義的奴隸。我相信我將在今後的幾年裡我的想法絲毫不會有所改
變。
這是獲取自律和控制開支的一個方法。我知道如果讓我來保管我掙的錢,我會忍不住
去花掉它。這也是為什麼我從不想生活闊綽,喜歡留一些自己夠花的錢就可以了。我也知
道只要由我媽來保管錢,就會保管的很好。在我一個月的工資超過600歐元後,離開生活
一陣子的了里斯本訓練中心,跟一個朋友在 Marques de Pombal 廣場的一間寬闊的房屋
一起住時,錢一樣還是由我媽保管。
我那時最大的一次開支就是買了自己的第一輛車 - Mercedes 220 CDi,我至今還擁
有者它,雖然在曼德拉。到我18歲的時候,我參加了駕駛考試,汽車已經被小轎車取代。
我在那個大房子裡住了一年,後來我就來到了曼徹斯特。
我不會受到穿衣服的困擾,儘管我喜歡去留意現在正流行穿什麼。一些朋友開玩笑的
說,我應該在我的職業球員生涯結束後去當模特。說真的,我還沒考慮過那個。我打算踢
到30歲以後,盡可能的還能保持我現在的競技水平。如果真的可以那樣,我會為我的職業
生涯感到驕傲。顯然我現在不會去考慮這些,因為我還年輕。只有當我到了那個年齡的時
候,我會觀察下我的身體狀況,我的思想狀況到底是怎樣的。但是從球員轉為模特那是不
可能的。哪有一個30多歲的人才開始他的職業模特生涯的?
當我30歲以後,可能接近40時,我想去建造一個旅館:曼德拉的一個度假勝地,人們
可以在那裡度過美麗、歡快已經和平的時光。一家7星級的酒店—我想那時這是全歐洲唯
一的一家。當然它將被命名為CR7。畢竟這是我一生的數字。
當然,這也可能只是一個幻想,但是在這之前我還有很多的時間去考慮。這個計劃只
有到了我職業生涯結束後才會成為現實。因為我目前以及今後唯一關注的還是踢好我的球
。

No.7, an iconic shirt
I always likes the number seven, but it was not my favorite. When I was in
the junior ranks of sporting I wore it in matches, but after being called up
to the professional squad the number 28 shirt began to have more meaning for
me.
That was the one I used in all the matches, and I lived the best moments at
Sporting wearing it. When I was going to sign the contract with Manchester
United, Alex Ferguson asked what number would I like to have on my shirt.
"28," I replied without blinking, especially because I saw nobody else was
using it. "No," responded Ferguson. "You are going to have number seven."
I did not contradict him. "Okay," I said.
The number 7 is a mythical for Manchester United, for the supporters, for
those who have been there and to all those who are well acquainted with the
history of English football and this great club in particular. Today it is
my number and I am very proud to wear it. At the time, and with all the
excitement of moment, I did not even think of George Best, Bryan Robson,
Eric Cantona or David Beckham, sacred names in the history of United. It
was only afterwards that I stopped to think. "Wait a minute, the shirt with
number 7 has an incalculable value to the club." After that I realized that
by giving me this number they were also giving me a great responsibility. I
was forced to live up to such an honor. To wear the United shirt was
important enough; to wear number 7 as well became an extra factor of
motivation.
It did not diminish nor has it increased my ambition. I felt that I had to
honor that shirt. I believe I am doing it and that I will not let my coach
down. This is in fact an iconic, historic number with an enormous importance.
It is an honor to have it on my shirt. I would never go back, but if I had
kept the number 28 who knows if it could not have become historic as well?
Of course I am joking…
7, new wonders of the world
I read that number 7, among other meanings, represents "the symbol of
perfect totality".
I do not presume to include myself in that definition. I refer to it just
to mention the selection of the 7 new wonders of the world, and those can
be described as a perfect group.
I bring up this subject because I had the privilege of being invited to be
an "international ambassador of this world-wide initiative on behalf of the
protection of artistic and architectural works of civilization". The event
organizers argued that I was one of the "World's sporting wonders." I
cannot thank them enough. I naturally accepted it with pleasure and pride.
The Acropolis (Greece), Alhambra (Granada), Angkor (Cambodia), Chichén Itzá
(Mexico), Christ Redeemer (Brazil), the Roman Colosseum (Italy), Statues of
Easter Island (Chile), the Eiffel Tower (France), the Great Wall of China
(China), the Hagia Sophia (Turkey), Kiyomizu Temple (Japan), the Kremlin and
Red Square (Russia), machu Pucchu (Peru), Neuschwanstein Castle (Germany),
Petra (Jordan), the Pyramids of Giza (Egypt), the Statue of Liberty (USA),
Sidney Opera House (Australia), the Taj Mahal (India) and Timbuktu (Mali)
represent the 21 works to be voted on, in an initiative of "The New 7 Wonders
of the World". These were the architectural works scrutinized, in the first
phase, among hundreds of other proposals and, in the second phase, among 77.
As far as I know, this is the largest vote ever held on a global scale.
Besides, it is a project where, for the first time, all humanity can
participate, as it involves all continents and cultures. And it will be
immortalized in world history as the moment when, in a direct way, more
than 3,691,984,877 people have united themselves around a single purpose:
to turn the Planet Earth into a place more pacific, beautiful and with
more history to be told in the future.
The selection of Portugal as the stage for the final announcement of this
important and historic event was disclosed on September the 5th 2007, in
Athens, in the "World Tour" start – a launch campaign that covered all
the candidate monuments and that has counted on the presence of the most
distinguished State figures of each country.
Once again, I thank the organizers for the honor of choosing me as an
international ambassador.
7, the pool of the new house
Ever since I was a boy, I had a dream: to build a large house, for me, for
my family and also for my friends, a space that is not just a house, but
rather a home, where I can feel really comfortable. That wish I no longer
utopian. I am going to own the house of my dreams. A large family house,
with everything I have always hoped for.
I talked to Jorge Mendes about this project of mine. His immediate reaction
was to suggest the name of an architect, Eduardo Souto Moura, the designer,
among many other works, of the Braga Municipal Stadium. Antonio Salvador, the
president of Sporting de Braga, with whom I get along very well, also told me
that Moura was the ideal person to make my wish come true. And so it
Our first contact was enough to establish a strong bond. I was charmed by
his simplicity and humble demeanor. And he surprised me when, at the end
of dinner, he grabbed a napkin and, right there, he drew the sketch of my
project. I had found the person who was to be responsible for the design
of my house.
As usually happens with all homes, mine will be quite personalized. I will
not disclose too many details, as everyone knows how much I value my privacy.
However, I can reveal that the number 7 will play a prominent role in it.
This will happen in two years. My house will have seven rooms, and the
swimming pool will be built in the shape of 7, a specific request of mine,
which architect Souto Moura conceived in an absolutely remarkable manner.
7, a project for the future
This news house will be the largest investment I have made up to now. it is
totally justified, as it is the fulfillment of a dream.
I do not like being a slave to money. This means that in the distant future,
when my career as a professional football player ends, I will try to live
off the investments I make throughout the years, but not live for the sake
of those investments.
What is the use of possessing a comfortable bank account, if we cannot enjoy
life properly? I am 22 years old, and I believe I have enjoyed life much
more than my mother, who is 52… Obviously, I am aware of the need to provide
for the future, but I do not allow myself to become a hostage to material
possessions. I believe I will maintain precisely the same ideas a few years
from today.
I am satisfied with the money I have been earning, and until now I must say
I cannot complain. Since I have no financial problems – myself of course,
nor my family. Likewise, I did not complain when I received a 50 euros
monthly allowance from Sporting, when I played in the training division and
lived in the training camp. During the first year of my career, I decided
that my mother was the right person to manage my money. Therefore, every cent
I received did not touch my hand; it went straight to her. Only later would
my mother send me the amount she considered enough for me to buy the few
things I needed, which were basically toiletries and clothes. When I earned
50 euros, she would send me 25. When I signed my first contract with the
senior team – a little better – I earned 250 euros, of which 50 euros were
for me and the rest was managed by my mother, who set this remainder aside,
as if it were a fund. My sisters and my father sometimes sent me small amounts
of money, which they spared with much difficulty. That is also the reason why,
today, I help them with everything they need. If we do not help our family,
who are we going to help?
This was a method of acquiring self-discipline and controlling expenses. I
knew that if I kept all the money I earned, I would always be tempted to
spend it. That is why I never wanted to live wildly, and preferred to keep
only the amount of money I needed to cover small expenses. Also I knew that
as long as the money was managed by my mother, it was in very good hands.
The same thing happened when I began to earn wages of more than 600 euros,
at the time I left the Sporting training centre – where I spent five years
-- and went to live, along with a firend, in a boarding house in Marques de
Pombal Square, in the centre of Lisbon.
My biggest extravagance, at the time, was buying my first car – a Mercedes
220 CDi – which I still own, although it is in Madeira. As soon as I was
18 years old, I took my driving test, and the bus was replaced by the car.
I lived in the boarding house for a year, and after that I moved to
Manchester.
I am not obsessed with clothing, although I like to be aware of what goes
on in the world of fashion. Some friends, as a joke, suggested that I should
try the catwalk when my career in football ends. Quite honestly, I do not
foresee that. I intend to play until after I am 30 years old, as long as
possible, preferably keeping up my present level of performance. If that
happens, then I will feel extremely proud of my career. Obviously, right
now I do not even think about it, for I am still very young. Only when I
reach that age will I be able to evaluate my physical condition, and discover
what my frame of mind will be. But stepping from the football pitch to the
catwalk, that cannot be. How on earth does a fashion model start a career
in his thirties?
When I reach my thirties, maybe even closer to being 40, I would like to
build a hotel: a resort, preferably in Madeira, where people could spend
beautiful, pleasant and peaceful moments. A sevens star hotel – I believe
that at the moment there is only one of those in Europe. It would be called
CR7, of course. After all, this is the number of my life.
This project may even be a pipe-dream, but I still have a lot of time ahead
of me before I begin thinking about it. And that will only happen after my
career ends. Not before that. Because my one concern is, and will continue
to be, to play football. And only that.
