Chapter 28 World Cup in France (4)

If there is no Zhang Lexing, the leading company can also be regarded as a leader in the domestic game industry, whether it is the creation of its predecessor pioneer cartoon on the Nintendo red and white machine, or the efforts in computer games after becoming the leading company, it is commendable, and it can be regarded as an attempt for the development of the domestic game industry.

Zhang Lexing remembers that the final fate of the leading company was to disband the development team and withdraw from the game industry, leaving only a so-called G-file as the final swan song. In order to avoid the same thing from happening, Zhang Lexing took care of the leading company, and they were among the first companies to invest in after the establishment of the Dream Fund, and then helped him improve the first game "Guandu" and release it to overseas markets, and Fengyun Game Academy also provided some talent support. originally thought that there would be a good development in the lead, but he didn't expect to come to this point in the end, and Zhang Lexing's heart couldn't help but be gloomy.

The leading company can't ignore it, this is not for the investment of the dream fund, but for those who devote themselves to game development because of their love for games, just like Zhang Lexing himself, if it is purely to make money, what to do is better than making money in a stand-alone game in China, why bother to come back and toss such a big mess.

The leading company wants to manage, but Zhang Lexing does not want to be confused, at least it is necessary to change the current situation of the leading company losing money, fortunately, the people of the dream fund know that Zhang Lexing is now inconvenient to inquire about the information, and has attached a detailed description of the current situation of the leading company in the email, and even includes a recent evaluation of the leading company, the character and technology are not bad, respectively, got A (5 points) and B (4 points), but the market and management aspects related to the company's survival are obviously low, only C (3 points) and D (2 points) respectively In other words, the experts of the Dream Fund believe that the main problems of the leading companies are in the market and management, especially in the management of the more serious problems.

At the end of the email, the experts of the Dream Fund also gave several solutions, the first of which is the simplest, which is to directly acquire the leading company by the creative workshop or Dongfang Electronic Entertainment Co., Ltd., and then merge and reorganize to eliminate the chaff from the personnel. The second plan is to inject new funds into the project by buying out the copyright of some projects in the hands of the pioneer, and it is recommended to adjust its management at the same time, otherwise it will be a short time at most. The third option, which takes over the game development team from the leading company and buys out the projects under development, is similar to the first option, but does not involve the acquisition of the company and requires relatively little capital......

The repetition of the leading company made Zhang Lexing completely disappointed in their management level and market operation ability, the market is easy to do, it's a big deal to help his own publishing companies once or twice in the future, but the management is definitely not going to change, so he did not hesitate to choose the third plan, this is the cleanest and most thorough way, no need to run in with the current or possible future management of the leading company, anyway, he has no shortage of management personnel of the game company. Write a reply email, stamp your own electronic stamp and send it out, and the matter of the leading company is temporarily over......

In fact, there were signs of this as early as mid-June, when the water level in many places rose sharply due to the continuous heavy rainfall in the northern part of the Yangtze River and the western part of South China, and the water level in many places rose sharply. The flood water of the two lakes flowed into the Yangtze River, and the water level of the Yangtze River also crossed the warning line on the 24th.

Of course, Zhang Lexing didn't know about these things, and it was impossible for the staff below to send some irrelevant weather information when his boss was on vacation, so after reading the information of the leading company and making his own decision, Zhang Lexing continued to accompany Chen Zishan to enjoy the World Cup.

At 4:30 p.m. on July 3, inside the Stade de France (Stade Saint-Denis in Paris), a key battle between Italy and France began. The game was extremely dull, both sides seemed to be busy defending and ignoring the offense, Chen Zishan was a little drowsy to watch, and finally saw the ball being pushed to the front, and the shooter shot the goal and seemed to find the direction of the door, she couldn't help muttering: "Why didn't the old horse send Baggio on the field, I didn't see the current offense in a mess." ”

"It's supposed to be playing, maybe the manager doesn't think it's time yet. Zhang Lexing comforted on the side.

Chen Zishan pursed her lips and didn't say anything more, she didn't think that she would wait for dozens of minutes, until the twenty-two minutes of the second half, Baggio was replaced on the field, Chen Zishan's spirit was lifted, and she began to pay attention to the development of the situation in the field. After Baggio came on the field, Italy's offensive improved, but it was still fruitless, in extra time, Baggio found a good opportunity, the big penalty area did not stop the ball and volleyed directly, the French goalkeeper Barthez has given up resistance, but the ball slid past the goal, Italy lost the last chance to rewrite the score, and the game was dragged into a penalty shootout.

France were the first to play with Zinedine Zidane, who fired a low shot that rolled into the net from the right side of the net to give France a 1-0 lead. The next to play was Baggio, he put the ball away, slowly retreated, at this moment the whole stadium seemed to become quiet, countless eyes were staring at him, many people had a thought hovering in their hearts, "Can Baggio kick this penalty", Chen Zishan grabbed Zhang Lexing's clothes with one hand, leaned against him, and stared nervously at the TV screen in the private room.

Hearing the referee's whistle, Baggio stopped, then started to run, came to the ball but made a light push, Barthez misjudged the direction, and the ball rolled into the net from the other side. Baggio, who scored the penalty goal, did not make a celebratory gesture, but just put his hand to his lips and made a gesture to shut up, perhaps he hoped to silence those who had been questioning him through this ball, and he needed to vent his emotions for a long time.

The Italians were jubilant when France's Nicarazu was picked up by Pagliuca, but then Albertini's penalty was saved by the bald Barthez and the French's hopes were rekindled. In the next two rounds, penalties were scored by both sides, and in the last round it was Blanco who came out of France, and he easily got it, and all the pressure went to Di Biagio, who had to score for Italy to keep their hopes alive.

Run, accelerate, kick, the ball was kicked out by Di Biagio and flew to the middle of the goal, Barthez saved in the wrong direction, the ball flew towards the goal, and then ...... a "bang", hit the crossbar and bounced out, Di Biagio fell to the grass in pain, and the French were jubilant.

Chen Zishan angrily hammered his hand and hit Zhang Lexing's thigh, making him involuntarily let out a low cry. Chen Zishan stuck out her tongue embarrassedly and asked with concern: "Lexing, it doesn't matter if it hurts or not." ”

Zhang Lexing didn't look at his legs, but held Chen Zishan's hand, touched it gently, and said, "It's good to hit it in a place with a lot of meat, otherwise even if I don't hurt, I will have to feel sorry for your hand." ”

"Cowardice~ The flesh is numb. Chen Zishan pursed her lips and said, "Lexing, are we still watching the next game?"

"Why don't you look at it, and the final, don't you want to see with your own eyes who wins the championship in the end. ”

"Well, yes, it's all here. But I think Brazil, Germany, the Netherlands and Argentina are all possible, but not France!"

"Shanshan, why is that?"

"Hmph, who let him eliminate Italy!" Chen Zishan muttered dissatisfiedly.

In the following days, Laudrup Jr. almost created a new Danish fairy tale again in a goal shootout, but Rivaldo scored the winning goal in time to avoid the embarrassment of suffering the same fate as Germany. The aging German tank barely made it to the quarter-finals, only to be cleanly defeated by the young Croatia with a score of 3-0, and Suker even used his violin-playing left foot to tell the Germans that the ball should be played like this! Bol's long ball, gracefully at his feet, and finally fired the ball into the far corner with the outside of his instep from a tight angle to knock Argentina out.

……

The water situation is still continuing; due to heavy rains for several days, the upper reaches of the Yangtze River have begun to exceed the highest water level in history; the Songhua River in the far northeast has also seen its first flood this year; the water level of the Xijiang and Minjiang rivers has also risen sharply under the heavy rains, and many people have gone to the embankments to try to defend their homes; and in some critical places, officers and men of the People's Liberation Army and the armed police have also appeared.

……

The game continued, with Thuram's two flashes of inspiration, Chen Zishan's very unoptimistic France stumbled into the final, and Brazil drew 1-1 with the Netherlands on the other side, and with the luck of the penalty kick, this rushed to the final.

On the day of the final on July 12, before that, all kinds of reports have analyzed the two opponents of the final very thoroughly, and the debate about who will win between Brazil and France is also hot, of course, the vast majority are still more optimistic about Brazil, whether it is the analysis of the strength of the two teams in the newspapers, or the performance of the two teams in the knockout stage, and even some underground markets are showing this possibility. As for the situation revealed by some tabloids that Ronaldo fainted the day before the final, it was naturally regarded as a smokescreen cast by the Brazilian team, and when Ronaldo started the game, it strengthened people's thinking.

Chen Zishan, who was staring at the entrance ceremony on TV, suddenly patted Zhang Lexing and said, "Lexing, let's have a prize quiz again today." ”

"Okay, are you going to gamble on a big meal again?" Zhang Lexing asked casually.

"No," Chen Zishan shook his head: "I'm almost tired of eating your big meals, let's come back and have something else." ”

"Okay, then this one is a little chic. Shanshan, if you win, I'll kiss you, and if I win, kiss me. ”

"Timid~ It's okay to be serious!"

"Okay, then if you win, I'll do something that moves you, and what if I win......"

"I'll just do one thing that moves you. ”

"Okay! Sansan, guess which side wins?"

"Well, I guess Brazil wins. ”

"Then I'd guess France won, and three goals better than Brazil. ”

"No way, even if it is possible that France will win by accident, it is impossible to win so much. Chen Zishan looked incredulous.

Zhang Lexing said with a smile: "Then let's make another bet, shall we?"

"Okay, you say!"

"If I lose, I'll help you make a wish come true, whatever it is. ”

"Hehe, aren't you afraid that my wish will be difficult to achieve?"

"For Shanshan's sake, no matter how difficult it is, I will find a way to accomplish it. ”

"Really?"

"Of course, but if I might win by accident, you can marry me. ”

"Well, how can that. ”

"What's the matter, Sansan, you don't have confidence in the Brazilian team anymore. ”

"Cowardice ~ bet on it, I don't believe Brazil will lose to France by three goals, let's say okay first, extra time and penalty shootouts can't be counted. ”

"Okay, no problem. Zhang Lexing glanced at the TV, patted Chen Zishan's shoulder gently, and said, "Okay, the game has begun, let's watch the game." ”

"Hmm. Chen Zishan nodded, his eyes moved to the ongoing game in the field, and his face was very relaxed.

When Zidane jumped high in the run, pressed Leonardo to push the ball into the door of the Brazilian team, Chen Zishan pouted and did not speak, when the first half was about to end, Zidane pushed the ball into the door of the Brazilian team again near the front post, she couldn't help muttering: "It's okay, it's okay, it's still time, there are still 45 minutes." ”

In the 68th minute of the second half, when French defensive stalwart Desailly was sent off after accumulating two yellow cards, the Brazilian team saw a glimmer of hope and developed a fierce attack, and Chen Zishan also had more expectations in his heart. However, until the end of the game, the fourth official raised the sign for 3 minutes of stoppage time, but the Brazilian team did not even score a goal, but the French team succeeded in the 90th minute of raid, and the rarely opened forward line finally scored a goal, France led Brazil 3-0, and there was no suspense in the game.

When the ball kicked out by Patti bounced on the turf and rolled into the gate of the Brazilian team, Chen Zishan couldn't help but turn his eyes to Zhang Lexing's body, with a look of disbelief: "Lexing, you ...... How did you guess?"

"I ......" Zhang Lexing remembered that he had done such a dangerous activity as predicting the score on a whim, and couldn't help but smile awkwardly, and said: "I didn't guess by the way, how did I think that I would have hit the right one, I knew that I should buy a few football lottery tickets, hehe." ”

Chen Zishan looked at Zhang Lexing's face for a while with a complicated expression, and suddenly became a little more shy in his eyes, and said with a slightly red face: "That...... So what should I do? ”

Zhang Lexing smiled slyly and said, "What should I do, marry me!"
