602. The person who sells
Gardelli is about 1.62 meters tall. For Icelandic men, this height is indeed a bit too short, but his figure, including his limbs, is very good and slender. If he is a big man of 1.9 meters tall, he is definitely the configuration of athletic athlete.
The second jockey is shorter than him, probably only a little over 1.5 meters tall, and definitely less than 1.6 meters tall. His name is Jefferson Kirkson, who is twenty-one years old this year and is very young.
Jefferson's outfit is a denim look. Although he tried to wear high heel boots and jeans with a lifted waist, it was still obvious that his body proportions were not very harmonious.
Chen Song was silent after seeing him. Do you have to go to Reykjavik for an interview? This jockey who came to the door was too terrible. One had a big injury that could destroy his career, and the other was simply not suitable for professional sports.
He tried his best to make his eyes gentle and not hurtful, but Jefferson still sensitively noticed what he meant.
Chen Song felt that he could not blame him for not being disrespectful to others: he wanted to recruit a professional athlete and then a dwarfist came, which was a bit disrespectful to him, right?
Jefferson attached great importance to this interview. He was prepared to be serious. This can be seen from his trimmed beard, hairstyle and dress. In addition, he gave Chen Song a resume and said, "It's very presumptuous that I came to my house directly. Mr. Chen, in fact, I sent an electronic resume to your email address, but I haven't received your reply for a long time, so I came to take a look."
Chen Song apologized to him. He did not have the habit of looking at the email address, which did conflict with Iceland's habits. Icelanders like to communicate with emails, especially those that tend to be formal, such as work, and they all have to send emails.
Jefferson said frankly: "No need to apologize, Mr. Chen, when I haven't received your reply for a long time, my family told me that I don't have a chance and you don't want to pay attention to me. But I don't think that's the case. I think you are hesitating and considering me. This is God who left me a chance, so I muster up the courage to come and sell myself. If you reply to the letter in time, then I may not have this chance."
Seeing how honest he said, Chen Song simply opened the skylight: "Do you know I will reject you?"
Jefferson smiled and said, "There are already twenty-eight horse farms that recruit jockeys rejected me, so you know, I'm mentally prepared."
Chen Song said: "I appreciate your attitude very much, but Mr. Kirkson I hope you understand that horse racing is a vigorous sport. It requires professional jockeys. I don't want to underestimate you, but you may not be able to deal with some situations on the horse's back."
Jefferson said sincerely: "I understand your misunderstanding of me, because I am a dwarf in your eyes. But you lack understanding of me. I think I am a natural excellent jockey, born specifically for the racing of Icelandic horses."
He paused and continued, "You know, jockeys need excellent physical fitness, such as balance, strength, and visual sense, but the taller people are, the better these physical fitness, but the smaller the Icelandic horses are, this creates a contradiction."
Speaking of this, he took off his coat and exposed the vest inside. His small body stretched the vest to bulge. He curled up his arms again, his muscle lines were extremely clear, and his muscles were as hard as rocks.
"Mr. Chen, my illness is born, so I enjoy many benefits. Even if I don't work, I can live a good life. The subsidies given to me by the government and welfare organizations every month are enough for my life. But I don't want this. God has made everyone come to this world with his intention. He must not want me to live and wait for death. He has set such suffering for my life and has allowed me to endure so many hardships. There must be more important roles for me."
Staring at Chen Song, Jefferson said slowly: "I was looking for this role until I saw the horse racing when I was fifteen. At that time, I understood everything. I was destined to be a champion jockey, a legend jockey, and then encourage others, others who were as hard as I had encountered."
Chen Song was shocked by the other party's words. His willpower was indeed extraordinary. This is a necessary quality for an excellent professional athlete.
But Chen Song couldn't be emotional. He asked: "Sometimes, if you want to succeed, you need not only a strong heart, but also a strong business ability."
"This is my internship experience. I started to intern at the horse farm at the age of fifteen and started working as a jockey assistant after going to college. I think I already have some of the skills and experience of becoming a jockey, and now all I need is an opportunity."
He showed some work experience, and he did have rich experience.
Chen Song asked while looking at his resume: "You are indeed very good, but there were so many horse farms before, twenty-eight, right? Why do they refuse to give you a chance to prove yourself? Why do you think I will give it to you?"
"Because they are all old horse farms, they think it's embarrassing to hire a dwarf jockey, and I don't think you think that, and no one wants to win the Green Cup."
After reading his resume, Chen Song took a photo and said, "You are right. I will give you a chance to assess the situation. You have to use facts to prove that you can win on the field. There will be an excellent jockey to guide you and evaluate you. I hope you can pass the test."
He reached out and Jefferson held his hand.
The little young man's palms were rougher and stronger than Gardley.
Because it was too late to recruit jockeys, Chen Song no longer had hope for this year's competition. He just wanted his own foal to go to the field to experience the atmosphere and prepare for next year's competition.
You can’t be anxious about horse racing. It takes time to achieve results. Many horse farms have been operated continuously for several generations, such as the Heilong Jimmy Horse Farm.
Gardley is a very ambitious and paranoid jockey, so when he finds out that his colleague is a dwarf, he is very dissatisfied and his partners need to help each other. If his partner is not good, it is better not to have a partner, so at least he will not be dragged down.
Chen Song could only comfort him and said, "He needs the Green Cup to prove himself like you. I think he will help you in the end."
Gardley said seriously: "It's not that I am conceited. All my confidence is based on the fact that I have ever won the Green Cup, and where did his confidence come from?"
Chen Song thought for a while and said, "It may be given to him by God."
