Although he was a little upset that the team's leading scorer was being watched by many clubs, Li Mudi could only temporarily return his attention to preparing for the league, because in the afternoon Gines drove to the airport to meet the film crew from the Tianchao side. According to the previous plan, the Torino coach will be used for the next period of time to shoot commercials, and he will only be able to deal with other matters in the small amount of time he has to deal with, so he still wants to be able to arrange the things at hand as much as possible, so as not to be too busy to figure out when he has to go.

In the evening, accompanied by his personal assistant Del Pino and his bodyguard Forsina, Li Mudi was at the door of his apartment and exchanged the opportunity to travel on the condition that he answered a reporter's question for 15 minutes. The group of three traveled in a rented car to Moncalieri, a small city about a 10-minute drive south of Turin, where Ginés had already rented a studio in the so-called city, which was only slightly larger than the Celestial capital's capital, Dongcheng District, and had a total population of only one-sixteenth of the city, and where the castle of Moncalieri could be used as one of the possible filming locations.

Due to the tight schedule, the original plan for everyone to have a meal together in Turin was rejected, and the leader of the Celestial Empire directly suggested that work should start on the same day to save a little time for post-production, which made the actor have to go out of the city at this time.

After arriving at the destination, they saw that Gines and Lin Zixu were already waiting at the door, and they were accompanied by six Celestial Empire people, who were introduced to know that they were representatives of four companies, a director in charge of directing the on-site shooting, and a professional Italian translator. I don't know if it's a coincidence, the person who came to Italy on behalf of the four companies was a vice president of their respective head offices, and their attitude when they saw Li Mudi was also very enthusiastic, and they said in unison that they were fans of the latter, which made people wonder if they had colluded in advance.

With the introduction of other people, the group slowly walked into this recording studio used for professional film and television drama shooting, and there were already many staff members in a large room who began to arrange the background and shooting equipment. Looking at the fact that there must be at least twenty or so compatriots in the house, Li Mudi's heart couldn't help but have a sense of déjà vu returning to the motherland, this was the second time he had seen so many people from the Celestial Empire gathered together at the same time since he crossed over, and the last time was when he was eating at a restaurant called Shan Ji in Milan City. At this time, the director opened his mouth to briefly introduce the staff, assistant director, photographer, camera assistant, scene reporter, art set, lighting engineer, lighting assistant, prop master, field worker and rocker assistant, etc., which made everyone confused and couldn't tell who was who.

Fortunately, this is just a basic interpersonal communication, and after greeting everyone in turn, leaving those who are busy to continue their work, these "leaders" enter the rest room on the side to prepare for the next step. On the sofa in the corner, the Turin coach picked up the script of the advertising film he had just gotten and began to study it, while the assistant directors Lao Yang and Lin Zixu were responsible for explaining and imparting relevant acting experience to him.

Yili Dairy is one of the top dairy companies in China and even in Asia, with an annual revenue of no less than 60 billion yuan, and is one of the top eight in the world in this industry. Due to the wide variety of products and the wealth of money, the spokesperson it has far exceeds that of other companies. The king of the music world, Zhou Jay, the queen of heaven, the eldest sister in the tennis world, the big sister Li Na, the popular Wang Luhan of Xiao Xianrou, as well as Da Mi Mi, Gao Yuanyuan, Peng Yuyan, Jin Xiuxian, Huang Godmother and Da Hei Niu in the film and television industry are all its classified brand spokespersons, and the lineup is indeed very strong.

Li Mudi is the endorsement of the dairy industry's Yili pure milk series this time, and his predecessor is the famous swimming king Ning Xianrou, the handsome guy who was as popular as the national husband was expelled from the team before the Rio Olympics because of the conflict between his personal endorsement and the collective advertisement of the national swimming team, and was once considered to be retired. However, due to the Celestial Empire's distorted values for the Olympic gold medal, he still took the last train to Brazil, but unfortunately his competitive state was seriously disrupted and he was defeated in Rio. Because the influence of this turmoil is too great, it has brought very negative consequences to the entire country, the General Administration of Sports, enterprises and individuals, so that Yili Dairy has made the decision to change the spokesperson and withdraw from the center of the storm. From tonight onwards, it was their ad that was the first to be filmed.

Although he has made guest appearances in two popular TV series before, Li Mudi knows that he is still a layman in the entertainment industry, and he can't mention his acting skills or anything, but he won't be too panicked when he sees the camera. So before filming, he always felt that he might hold everyone back, or even delay the entire filming schedule. But after seeing this script to be filmed, he was stunned, this thing doesn't need acting skills at all, even a fool can easily do it after two days of practice.

Due to the urgency of time, coupled with Li Mudi's current super popularity in China, the script designed by the advertising agency is very simple, and the core of it is that a team that seems to be Torino did not perform well against strong opponents, falling behind by two goals in the first half, and the players in the locker room at halftime were sad and listless. And the coach of the team, who was also angry but had nothing to do, reluctantly drank a sip of pure milk of this brand to moisten his throat after giving a long speech, who knew that he suddenly became in a comfortable mood, and his brain was also opened, and he came up with all kinds of wonderful tactics. As a result, in the second half of the game, the previous unfavorable situation was completely reversed, and finally achieved a super reversal of 3-2, which is also so vulgar that there are no friends. It is worth mentioning that the team logo of the sworn enemy is obviously slightly modified on the basis of the Juventus team emblem, will this be sued for infringement!

The 30-second ad is about 20 seconds of footage of Li Mudi and the carton of milk, and the rest of the players in the background are using extras and even local residents who are interested in participating, and their scenes will be played tomorrow during the day. After dinner today, we will start filming the Torino manager's own separate part, and try to get it done before lunch the day after tomorrow. As for the footage of the game scenes, it is enough to leave it to the computer production, otherwise the humble football training ground rented by the film crew will definitely give people a sense of déjà vu of a street-level game in the Celestial Empire.

After eating the takeaway dinner ordered, the Torino coach officially started the shooting mission for four consecutive days, more than 12 hours a day, and after the appearance of three-digit NG, he finally rushed out of the advertising of Yili Dairy and 362 Degrees Sports before this holiday. As for the advertisement, which is said to be in the bottom two due to bad luck in the draw, it can only be filmed in the evening after Li Mudi has completed his work, and he must take the lead in ensuring the duties and tasks of the team's head coach during the working hours stipulated by the club.

When Li Mudi came to the team's training ground on the morning of November 10, the outside media's reports on Belotti's transfer and contract renewal had reached an overwhelming level. Although the person concerned had already traveled to Liechtenstein with the Italian national team, after the team's head coach had just arranged today's training assignments, he was led by a club staff member into the office building not far away, where the renewal negotiations for the Torino center forward were about to take place in a conference room on the third floor. In addition to the manager, the meeting was attended by the club's president, Urbano Cairo, the director of human affairs, Pantario Longo, the club's marketing department, Valentino Cairo, and Belotti's agent, Sergio Ranchi.

As the club's main negotiator, Valentino was constantly arguing with Ranchi over the fax sent by Arsenal the day before, while Pantario Longo acted as a peacemaker to prevent the two sides from getting angry. The attitude of the president of Torino is very similar to that of Li Mudi, that is, if the money is not available, it will never be sold, and if the club can pay 70 million euros, it can take Belotti away, otherwise don't come to the BB, this line of thinking is the same as the previous approach of the coach to Bruno Perez's transfer proposal. However, Li Mudi is still not satisfied with the figure of 70 million, if Higuain, who is about to turn 29 years old, is worth 94 million, then Red Beibei, who is six years younger than him, is definitely worth 150 million.

When this price came out of the mouth of the Torino coach, Sergio Ranchi almost jumped out of his chair in fright, this figure is much more expensive than the transfer fee that Real Madrid bought Ronaldo and Bale before, and it is also nearly half of the current world's first price Pogba, which is absolutely sky-high. If the Torino club really set the transfer price according to Li Mudi's wishes, it means that all the transfer intentions of all teams are rejected at once, because no one is crazy enough to pay such a high fee for a player who has only been selected for the national team for two months and has not been mentioned in the Champions League. Even if the Plum Ball King and Cristiano Ronaldo are marked at this price, there will not be more than ten teams that can afford it.

However, since it is a negotiation, the two sides are arguing with each other, and finally find a clause that everyone can agree to and set it. After glancing at the team's manager, Belotti's agent focused his breakthrough on the annual salary and bonus clause, citing the number of goals and wages of the top scorer in Serie A over the previous three seasons, and offering what he considered reasonable 2.5 million euros and a hefty appearance fee and goal reward. It stands to reason that this annual salary is not too much for a super striker at the top scorer level in Serie A, but the financial situation of the Torino club is far from that of those big teams, and even Lazio, which is in the slow recovery stage, can pay 1.8 million wages to the rotation players in the team. However, the budget of the Red Bulls is only in the middle of the 20 teams in Serie A this season, and the highest annual salary in the team is England international Joe Hart, Torino needs to share one-third of his salary at Manchester City, about 2.225 million euros, followed by Paraguayan winger Juan Iturbe, who is on loan from Roma, half of his original salary is about 2.15 million euros, which is the lowest cost-effective player in the team, and Li Muddy has considered returning it during the winter break.

According to the latest salary cap negotiated by the club's top management, they can pay up to 2.5 million euros of annual salary to the core players in the team, but before tax, according to the tax rate of the relevant Italian parties, there is only less than 1.4 million left, and the gap with the player's demand is a bit large, and the negotiations inevitably reached an impasse.

The next day's "Roma Sport" newspaper made headlines: In order to prevent Manchester United and other giants from poaching, Torino is ready to renew Belotti's contract, but the negotiation process has been very difficult, and it is almost certain that the two sides have a big difference and it may be difficult to reach an agreement in a short period of time.

At 15 o'clock in the afternoon, the Torino club received an offer of 45 million euros from Arsenal for the transfer of Belotti, which was rejected by the former within five minutes.

On the morning of November 12, the "Courier" broke the news: because in a World Cup qualifier that just ended, the main scorer of the Polish national team, Milik, was injured in a scramble in the first half, and was later diagnosed by the team doctor as a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in the left knee, and may be out for four months. As a result, Napoli, who were already a little short of reserves in the forward line, was left with only Gabbiadini as a regular centre-forward, and club president De Laurentiis is said to have lost his temper after learning of Milik's injury, and scolded the Polish national team and the Danish international Westgaard who injured Milik. You must know that the Polish striker has shown no less efficiency in the new season than his national team player Lewandowski, who has scored four goals in four starts in the league and leads the team in the Champions League with only three goals. The loss of such an important striker for so long will inevitably affect Napoli's plans to challenge for the league title, so they turned their wishful thinking on Belotti's head. According to insiders, Napoli have contacted the Torino club and are willing to sign the red babe for €40 million plus midfielder Vardi Fiori and Croatian left-back Ivan Strinic when the winter transfer window opens.

While the news was being widely discussed, reporters stopped Urbano Cairo, who was about to have dinner with his guests, that evening. The Torino president first gave a dismissive smile to the question, and then replied domineeringly: "Since the transfer of Maksimovic, I don't think the two clubs can talk about the transfer of players so calmly. Although there is no way to reject the other party's proposal here because of the player's wishes, if Napoli is really optimistic about Belotti's strength, let's prepare 100 million euros first, so that I can possibly convince Coach Moody. ”

At this point, rumors about whether Belotti will leave or renew his contract have become a hot issue for many people, and Torino fans have even begun to organize events to defend their star of the house.
