Chapter 71 Signing a national team contract! Next battle at Old Trafford!
After enjoying the sunshine, beach and delicious food for a few days, Chen Xiaoliang returned to Glasgow.
For Helena and Reese, this is also the most leisurely time they have had in more than half a year.
Three pieces of news came.
1. Tottenham Hotspur won the first leg 2-0 at home, but lost 0-3 to Croatian team Dinamo Zagreb away in the second leg.
In the words of the local media in London, it was a "humiliating exit."
Coupled with the injuries of a number of main players, the team has fallen to tenth place in the Premier League. Mourinho is having a very difficult time and began to criticize the players as usual at the press conference.
Once again, rumors of "catching the mole" spread like wildfire.
Second, Rangers drew 1-1 with Celtic in last night's league match. The main players of both teams were still serving their three-match league suspension period for the nightclub brawl, and with the championship already decided, there were no more fierce sparks between the two teams.
Rangers' unbeaten streak has extended to 33 games.
Third, Erke's boss Wu and his team have arrived in Glasgow, ready to meet with Chen Xiaoliang.
Although Riise told him several times that Red Star Erke had no football products at all, he was still willing to meet their team.
At least even though they knew there was a huge gap between them and Nike and Adi, they still persisted in contacting Reese just for a chance to meet. This persistence was enough to impress Chen Xiaoliang.
The two parties had originally agreed to meet at the club during lunch break at 13:00 noon, but Boss Wu and his team arrived at 12:00, and the entire team consisted of fifteen people.
Chen Xiaoliang didn't expect that they would take it so seriously.
After the meeting, Boss Wu was very excited.
"Mr. Chen, thank you for giving us this opportunity!"
“There’s no need for us to elaborate, all the Red Country fans are very optimistic about your future!”
"If you are willing to give us this opportunity, we will immediately prepare to establish a professional football equipment team and tailor the best shoes for you!"
"We have already negotiated with Nike and Adi's people. As long as you give us a nod, we will poach them over!"
"We guarantee that the technology and materials used are top-notch!"
Seeing Boss Wu personally introducing the carefully prepared PPTs in the club's conference room, Reese was a little moved.
Naik and Adi's expressions when they were communicating with him were not like this.
In their eyes, top players should sign with them, and it is a huge honor for a young player to be actively selected by them.
Nike is also preparing to provide him with the same Phantom series as De Bruyne and Harry Kane.
Being compared with these two stars was already a great honor from Nike, plus the endorsement fee was quite good, they never thought that Chen Xiaoliang would refuse!
Arrogant, some European and American companies are so confident.
After the Red Country cotton incident, they are still so confident and fearless.
Finally, Chen Xiaoliang put forward his own idea.
The sponsorship fee will be based on Boss Wu’s terms, while the sales share will be used to establish training camps to get more children involved in football.
As for the content of the cooperation, the two sides first started with running shoes and daily sports equipment. During the game, Chen Xiaoliang continued to wear the shoes provided by the club until Red Star Erke designed his own shoes.
The specific details will be negotiated by Reese.
After all the terms were confirmed, the two parties signed the contract, and the news was quickly posted online by Red Star Erke as part of the cooperation content.
《Four years and 2 million euros, Chen Xiaoliang becomes the first star signed by Red Star Erke to enter the football field! 》
[Fuck, more than 4 million red yuan a year, is Chen Xiaoliang already so valuable? ]
[This is nothing. Think about it. Boss Ma of Nanshan Bisheng Group has a good vision. When Chen Xiaoliang first became popular, he directly took out 10 million pounds to sign a broadcasting and agency agreement with Rangers. Now, the money is back from the advertising in the live broadcast room and the sales of jerseys! ]
[Boss Ma was able to earn back the 10 million pounds, and Jie Tubang played an indispensable role...]
[Don’t forget, Gerrard already has many fans in China. Liverpool has been strong in recent years. Boss Ma actually signed two stars as broadcast endorsements.]
[This is totally blind. Chen Xiaoliang, forget about the Ballon d'Or! Red Star Erke has football shoes? There is no technology and no design. What can we use to make football shoes for him? Football shoes are not casual shoes. What will you do if a nail breaks in the Champions League final in the future? ]
[Is the above person joking? Chen Xiaoliang is only 16 years old, and he won the Golden Globe Award? Do you think this is a brainless and cool article? ]
[They've already announced it, until they design the shoes, continue to wear the ones designated by the club... There are so many foreign admirers, can't you stand up after kneeling for so long? ]
…
Although there are many controversies, it has indeed sparked a wave of hot topics in the red country sports circle!
Chen Xiaoliang didn't expect that signing an endorsement would cause so much controversy.
But this is how the sports circle is. He often goes online to watch Douyin APP, broadcast bars, etc. Not to mention the issue of domestic and foreign products caused by signing sneakers this time, even if Ronaldo and Messi score a goal, the fans of each camp will scold each other on major forums the next day.
But these are not what he cares about.
Now that I have the money, I don’t have to worry about life, but I still have to focus on the competition!
He has made an agreement with Gerrard that after resting for a week, unless there are major changes in the Europa League, he will have to play in all the remaining league games!
Gerrard was very satisfied with the eager attitude to fight!
During his one-week vacation, he did not train at all except for running around the hotel wearing a hat and sunglasses.
However, after experiencing actual combat for most of the season, his physical functions have now recovered to their best condition!
In one week, they will face the Premier League giants Manchester United at home!
Manchester United has currently secured second place in the league. Although it is far behind Manchester City at the top and has no hope of winning the championship, it is also one of the best results in recent years !
Coupled with the fact that a large number of players have been bought at high prices for several consecutive seasons, many media believe that the team that once dominated the Premier League is on the right path to a strong revival!
At the same time, compared with some famous coaches, Manchester United coach Solskjaer's tactical style is not very single. He neither overemphasizes ball possession nor focuses on defensive counterattacks. Instead, he tends to make flexible adjustments based on the actual situation of the opponent.
This tactic was once called the XJBT tactic by Manchester United fans!
However, as long as the results are good, fans will naturally criticize less.
Gerrard has been extremely excited recently. Facing Manchester United, who is aiming to win the Europa League for the second time this season, he wants to avenge his playing career!
Therefore, the pragmatic him had already formulated his own tactics !
Or defensive counterattack!
Taking advantage of the fact that Manchester United's defensive midfielder has a small coverage area and the central defender turns slowly, we focus on attacking behind the opponent!
What remains is the usual desperate defense!
There is no need for excessive mobilization when playing against an opponent like Manchester United, and Gerrard is not worried at all that the team will repeat the same situation of underestimating the opponent as it did against Slavia Prague.
If eliminating Leicester City proves that they are capable of competing with Premier League teams, then only eliminating Manchester United is enough to show that this group of players has the strength to compete in the Premier League!
