Chapter 63: Beating the Fans
Wang Zhen can't think calmly, if he can think calmly, he will know that something similar happened in his previous life, at a similar time, Gerrard beat a fan of another team after drinking and was almost sentenced to two months in prison. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because he couldn't think calmly, Wang Zhen had already thrown this memory out of the clouds.
When the Liverpool crowd stormed the bar, the friend of the man who had been kicked out was also rushing out.
There are a total of eight people on the other side, and on the Liverpool side, there are a total of thirteen people.
Even Wang Zhen rushed up to do it.
Wang Zhen let go of three of them alone, and he clearly knew that one of them was unlucky and had a broken arm.
The other twelve people hit five, and they were also very fast, but the other eight people plus the guy who kicked in the back at the beginning did not coax, and turned over and hit.
When he played, he shouted that the Liverpool players had hit someone.
Soon someone called the police.
Today was supposed to be the day of the game, and the police in the whole city were all patrolling without leaving work, and soon, a team of police arrived.
By the time they arrived, however, none of the nine were standing.
Seeing an officer step out of the car, Gerald put his hands and wrists together and made a gesture of handcuffing me.
The police officer grabbed Gerald's clothes and stuffed them into the police car, Wang Zhen clearly heard the police officer say: "Gerald, why are you making trouble today, and being seen by so many people!" ”
Gerald turned his head, with an indifferent expression, and didn't speak.
Then, a police officer walked up to Wang Zhen: "Let's go, captain." ”
The police who arrived were not all Liverpool fans, but also Everton fans, but they were very conscious of growing far, and the Liverpool fans and police would not let them touch Liverpool players.
The fight began at 10:56, the police arrived at the scene at 11:00, arrived at the police station at 11:4, and at 11:05, the media reporters were already at the door of the police station.
I have to say that the tabloids in England are too powerful.
Subsequently, Benitez, who was sleeping at home, could only rush to the police station, accompanied by the general manager Rick, who was sweating profusely in the winter, rushed to the police station and was photographed by the media.
If you say that you just hit a fan, if you hit a fan after drinking, although you may be sued afterwards, you can be released on bail directly, don't worry, but there is a fan whose arm was broken.
When making a confession, that person was taken to the hospital, and his companion insisted that Wang Zhen took the lead in breaking the arm of a fan, this kind of thing, even the perverse Cantona had never done.
Cantona is nothing more than kicking the fans, and Wang Zhen has disabled the fans.
There is also a very serious problem, in the computer system of the police station, these nine people are all Manchester United fans, not to watch the game, but there are business things just in Liverpool, among them, there is not a single football hooligan recorded.
This is where things get more problematic.
If they were football hooligans, the police could have characterized them as fan hooligans, but they were not football hooligans.
After understanding the cause and effect of the incident, the police officers of the police station wanted to drag these people out and beat them, but this is the police station, on behalf of the law enforcement agencies, and this kind of thing is not allowed.
And the media don't know where to dig up the news.
The police station is not airtight, there are also people from the city of Liverpool, every police station, there is the eyes of the media, and the media uses money to buy news, otherwise they would not come so quickly.
In the evening football news that is still airing, many TV stations have inserted the news, but not many photos have been taken, only a photo of Benitez rushing to the police station with a worried face.
Wang Zhen suddenly remembered the memory of Gerrard, which incident, Gerrard, as the leader, was targeted by the fans who caused the incident and was almost imprisoned, and this time, these fans undoubtedly wanted to target Wang Zhen, not Gerrard.
To put it bluntly, this is still a capitalist world, and it is still a gathering place for Liverpool fans, and it is the home stadium, but the media came too quickly, and if those fans don't change their tune, it will be difficult to do good.
However, Wang Zhen refused to apologize, refused to pay for medical expenses, and rejected all the plans put forward by the police that could turn big things into small ones.
At the same time, Wang's team of lawyers was rushing to Liverpool.
During this time, the international lawyers in the legal team are in charge of the legal project of the football school, and the English lawyers are contacting their respective leaders, this time the youth training program, with the participation of football people from Germany, England and France, most of them are contacted through lawyers, because they know the law best.
After Wang Zhen made the call, they were booking a plane ticket to fly back to England from China.
Wang Zhen's meaning is very simple, if you want to sue, you will sue, this kind of example is not uncommon in the sports world, and there are many lawsuits that have been fought for several years.
Very simple reason, there will be lawyers who value this opportunity to become famous and rich, go to these fans to be lawyers, and then fight a lawsuit with Wang Zhen, even if it takes five years, as long as they can win in the end, these lawyers will suddenly become a famous lawyer in England from being penniless.
Early the next morning, the media reported on the incident.
Among them, the Times report is the most comprehensive: "Yesterday night, the whole Liverpool team gathered to drink, met a group of nine Manchester United fans on the road, heard nine people mention the Heath Bosch tragedy and made insulting remarks, Liverpool players taught these nine people a hard lesson, and subsequently, was taken away by the police who arrived, there is news that a Manchester United fan was broken by Liverpool superstar Wang Zhen fractured the ulna of his right arm, it is reported that the local police believe that there is no direct evidence to prove that the fracture is related to the conflict and Wang Zhen, so, earlier today, Wang Zhen has gone home to rest, however, due to this incident, the post-match recovery training of the whole Liverpool team will be cancelled and replaced by a day off. ”
There are two reasons why the police decided to let Wang Zhen go.
One is Wang Zhen's identity as the captain of Liverpool, after all, this is the police station of Liverpool.
The second is the involvement of the bookmaker.
And what there is evidence or not has nothing to do with it at all.
Soccer, especially in Europe, is very different from the sports leagues in North America.
Unlike the media and leagues, which rely on tickets from fans in attendance, football's revenue stream is heavily reliant on media telecasts, endorsements, and official betting.
Fans may not think too much, but a player with a transaction worth 30 million pounds and a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds or even 200,000 300,000 pounds plays on the field, and the ticket only costs more than ten or even eight or nine dollars?
You can't even get back the cost of a player for a game ticket, not to mention, for a team like Liverpool, there are four, five, six, seven or eight such players.
There are agreements with the club, with the FA, and the league, and there is a game about a certain team, and the bets will be divided according to the proportion, and the betting is strictly forbidden for players or coaches to participate, just to maintain fairness, because this is a club-level interest organization, not a player-level organization.
Betting on the fourth round of the FA Cup has long been set, and there have been more than £17 million in a single bet.
The bookmaker will not watch anyone in Liverpool unable to play this game, not to mention that the person who is kept by the police is the famous football tycoon, Wang Zhen.
Let's fight the lawsuit slowly, Wang Zhen is not worried, and he has no time to think about the lawsuit.
