Chapter 168: A Serious Thing

Before the start of the 31st round of the league over the weekend, the press conference for Youmo's endorsement of StarCraft was officially held. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The team has just won the championship, and the commercial endorsement is naturally at the right time, and Blizzard is still relatively optimistic about the prospects of this deal. By the time the contract was finalized and the two parties began to communicate on the details of the business venture, they were blown away by the jargon of the game!

became famous at the age of thirteen, officially entered the first-line senior team at the age of sixteen, became famous all over the world at the age of eighteen, and has been compared with the world footballer at the age of nineteen.

At the press conference, the reporters were equally curious.

You Mo sat in front of the stage and talked eloquently in front of a group of long guns and short cannons.

"Games are a stage for young people to unleash their passion, personality and talent, and our Warcraft series at Blizzard has turned video games into a special way to compete, providing game lovers with the opportunity to become professional athletes."

"But in the eyes of many adults, video games are a thing that affects physical and mental health, and some people describe it as a flood beast based on one-sided observations."

"To be honest, a fun game is indeed addictive, and if you lack moderation, you will delay your career and affect your health."

Hearing this, the reporters couldn't help but look at each other.

That being said, is it in the interest of business?

How can anyone boast about the side effects of a product at a press conference?

This guy didn't figure out his identity, what about the game company, will his intestines be repentant?

In the midst of the buzzing discussion, You Mo smiled, his voice still unhurried and full of energy.

"At the heart of any competitive sport is the battle between people. The so-called 'no first, no second' is what it means. There is only one champion, which is the charm of competitive sports and the best motivation to attract fans to move forward step by step. ”

"There are many types of video games, and we at Blizzard have always been committed to the competitive development of video games, and the pursuit is to allow players to continue to explore in the game. Think, improve, and continue to surpass yourself in the competition with others, and fight to become the king! ”

"It's a spirit of competition, and it's the same as what a professional athlete like me would aspire to!"

The noise that could be heard everywhere was shattered by the deep voice, and many people's facial expressions changed subtly.

Simple praise is inevitably annoying, and if you want to promote it, you will suppress it, this trick is clever!

The two things that were not touched were connected by his button. It's a natural fit!

Endorsement products can do this, this guy is not simple!

"A teenager who has loved football since he was a child, and he sacrificed many possibilities in life for his dreams, even at the cost of his health. This is sure to be recognized by all of you, and even if you don't become a professional footballer, you will still be talked about by many people. And once you're really successful, it's normal to be an inspirational role model. ”

"But if you change football to a game, will the same thing happen?"

Facing such a problem. The scene became quiet, and many people thought for a while. Slowly shook his head.

"It's the same hobby, the same dedication, and the same fight for self-transcendence in their respective fields, why are they treated differently?"

"Obviously, it's a lot of adults, people who claim to represent the mainstream of society. From the very beginning, video games have been associated with eroticism and violence, and they are unwilling to understand, let alone participate, so that they have formed an inherent prejudice! ”

"I'm also a big fan of video games, and football doesn't depart from the essence of the game in my eyes. That's why I really enjoy the excitement of a good game. Even if you don't have a lot of time to play now, you still remember the fun you had at that time. ”

"It's like a football game for fun."

"I hope that in the near future, our Blizzard company's StarCraft - Brood War will bring you continuous surprises, and I hope that my performance can be the same as this game, on the world's top stage, for everyone to remember!"

As soon as the words fell, the applause rang out unreservedly, and the reporters stopped talking to each other, and their enthusiastic eyes began to focus on the parties.

Blizzard's press officer didn't talk to You Mo in detail beforehand, and he didn't expect that he would attract all the firepower as soon as he came up, and he was alone there. When the doubts gradually rise and strange eyes wander around, it is inevitable that the gamer will be nervous. At this time, he was naturally overjoyed, and the press conference was introduced into a Q&A session.

Although it is a press conference for game endorsements, except for the industry media invited by Blizzard out of their own pockets, most of the other reporters who came to find news are still here for Youmo's influence in the football field. So after the first few reporters politely asked questions about the game, the conversation quickly shifted.

"The Carabao Cup is a stage for young people and a great opportunity for players on the fringes of the squad and it's great to fight with my team-mates to the last second for this title. As for the physical problem, I don't think it should be a reason to give up on the effort, and even if we don't make it to the next level in the Champions League, we won't regret our efforts in the Carabao Cup. ”

A full 48 hours have passed, and Youmo's solo ride that did not end perfectly is still talked about, and many people have regretted that if they hadn't played a full 110 minutes, a great goal would have been born!

This regret can easily be transformed into doubt.

Knowing how big of a role he has in the team, why did he play the full 120 minutes in an unplanned final?

How nice it would be to come off the bench!

Youmo's answer did not please the reporters, in their opinion, Arsenal had already won the league and FA Cup double last season, and the League Cup was not worth the risk!

"The situation on the pitch is changing so quickly that no one knows exactly what will happen in the next second. Not being able to score such an imaginary goal is just a bit of a pity for me, not a pity. ”

"Of course, if the team wins the championship."

"Next time. Maybe I'll have a chance to do it again, and maybe I'll do it even better. ”

The ability to combine self-confidence and team spirit so seamlessly, and to arouse the audience's appetite, makes many people start to bow their heads frequently.

But there are also bad scenery.

"If you give your all in a game like this and end up not performing well in the Champions League quarter-finals next week, will you regret it?"

The sharp question caused a lot of side eyes.

For young people. There are few people who can resist the desire to fight back under the verbal provocation of the opponent, so in the face of such a question, whether you answer "I will not regret it" or answer "I will not perform badly", you have actually fallen into the trap of the opponent.

Won't regret it? That can only mean that you don't distinguish between the important and the heavy, and you lost the watermelon for the sake of sesame!

Won't underperform? That can only mean that you are arrogant and put the game into child's play for the sake of fast talk!

It's not just the old fritters among the reporters who want to understand this, the Blizzard press officer feels his palms sweating, and looks at the smug questioners in the crowd. I really want to slap him in the face!

The expression on You Mo's face remained unchanged, but he carefully looked at his opponent before speaking.

Except for an overly slender face, the other features are so lackluster that it's impossible to determine whether it's 30 or 50 years old.

"The pitch is the battlefield, the players are the soldiers, and the manager is the commander. For soldiers on the battlefield, it is a duty to obey orders, not to be reserved on the grounds that they may regret it. In my opinion. With exactly a week between this Carabao Cup final and the next Champions League knockout game, it was natural for Arsene Wenger to make the decision to start the game. ”

As soon as these words came out. All the old fritters sighed in their hearts.

It is no longer an ordinary person to be able to hold back and not fight back, and it is beyond the reach of ordinary people to be able to use higher-level insights to make the opponent's questioning ridiculous?

On the surface, it seems that the responsibility is being put on the head coach, but the explanation made by turning his head is immediately impressive!

It's not easy!

"Does that mean you won't be in the starting lineup for the weekend?" The slender face reacted quickly, and asked without waiting for the others to finish their feelings.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes looked at him suddenly.

No wonder they rushed out and ruined the atmosphere. It was originally to help Tottenham Hotspur play outpost!

"Okay, since you're so sure, you might as well come down and tell Mr. Qiao Ye."

You Mo's answer was also very fast, and his serious expression and seemingly serious content suddenly caused a burst of laughter.

If the starting lineup can be known in advance, the arrangement of the lineup can indeed be more targeted. However, the premise is that the opponent does not know that their starting lineup has been leaked. Targeting can make a huge difference.

The game is always based on the strength of both sides, and it is too naΓ―ve to be confused when someone guesses the starting lineup.

"Oh, it seems that Tottenham are not to be feared in your eyes?" The slender face was not discouraged, and he was still calm in the face of group ridicule.

"No, no opponent can make us afraid." You Mo replied casually, and his laughter suddenly became louder.

Indeed, a team aiming for the European title, even against the strongest opponents on the planet, has only one way to go. It's just that the "scared" in the words of the slender face is obviously completely different from the meaning of "afraid" in You Mo's mouth, and it is a little innocent to use it as cannon fodder.

However, no one sympathized with him at the scene, everyone had an expression of watching the play, looking forward to the two of them turning to have a wonderful part.

Even the Blizzard press officer, who had a nervous face before, looked at him with a playful expression, as if he was winning.

"Well, it's a good day to come over, congratulations on your success in the business field."

The content of the slender face seems to be waving a white flag, but his demeanor does not even mean defeat and surrender, and even if you look closely, you will find a smile at the corner of your mouth.

You Mo saw it clearly, so he also smiled.

"Okay, thank you for your blessings."

The applause rang out in a small area, lasted for a short time and then disappeared, and everyone was still a little puzzled and a little lost.

it, it's over, it's over, is there a bit of work ethic?!

.。。

In fact, the slender face may not be sent by Tottenham to spy on intelligence or sabotage, but as a supporter of the team, after provoking the opponent in this way and receiving this treatment, the Arsenal players may not care, thinking that he is looking for self-interest, what about Tottenham?

Will you still look at it with a normal heart?

Really!

At the weekend in White Hart Lane, the Arsenal men were doubly oppressed.

The excitement of the Tottenham players was not to be expressed, and the roar and invectives of the Tottenham fans made the atmosphere of the game brutal.

In fact, the content of the competition is not much better.

As a former Arsenal boss and a staunch supporter of 1-0 doctrine, George Graham has a paranoid love of defending, pressing, and stopping opponents from attacking by any means necessary, and he sees the three points as more important than ever against his old club who have personally ejected him from the dugout.

Can high-intensity pressing and fouls contain the Arsenal team?

The answer is not yes, but there is a seventy or eighty percent probability that it will not run. If you add to that the absence of a series of important figures, it's not a 100 per cent surprise.

There is such a thing as individual skill and local coordination, and it is necessary to reach a considerable height in order to completely ignore the opponent's defense and win the game as you like. And this Arsenal team, without Anelka, without Bergkamp, without Petit, the technical flow of play that depends on survival is no longer enough to reach the above heights.

This is actually the most important reason why You Mo has repeatedly been in the limelight.

Perhaps the whole Arsenal team has ignored this fact.

The team's dependence on him has now reached a rather alarming level, and the old things have unconsciously become unfamiliar, and it is difficult to use them as weapons to defeat the enemy.

Whether it is good or bad in the long run is not to say, the current trouble has already come to the door.

Compared with the body, compared to the state, and compared with the style of play, they can't compare with the Tottenham team, and the power of the weapon in the past is not good, and the current weapon is not on the field, what magic weapon can defeat the enemy?

The answer is brutal.

Not only that, but the lack of midfield hardness caused by Youmo's absence directly led to insufficient protection in front of the team's defense, and it paid a heavy price in the 61st minute of the game.

The veteran Dixon turned too slowly in the face of the opponent's one-on-one breakthrough, and finally killed the suspense for an hour with a red card + penalty.

The red card was a stack of two yellow cards, which is too harsh from any point of view, but given that the referee was Atkinson, it would not be difficult to explain.

Arsenal's multinational squad is not well received by the ACP, and the refereeing community has rarely looked favorably at this team. Atkinson, as a representative of the new school, can be regarded as the culmination of this prejudice, and seeing that he does not fall into the well in this situation, he is simply not surnamed Martin!

The red dot package was released, and the Tottenham coach's seat was suddenly jubilant, and the sound was so loud that You Moduxin, who was sprinting back and forth on the opposite runway, shook his head.

Alas, in order to eat a dumpling, these people are also quite hard.

After taking a 1-0 lead, Georges Graham no longer stayed on his own turf, always consciously or unconsciously approaching the place where the fourth referee was, and from time to time he turned his head to look at his successor, the anxious Frenchman.

Arsène Wenger.

The two don't actually have any personal conflicts, but their positions will inevitably be compared and heartbreaking conclusions will be drawn.

Not only is it transcendence, it simply makes the ex embarrassed!

But now?

What does it taste like from heaven to earth?

'You go for Wiltord and stay active in the box and there will be chances.'

Pat Rice's expression is not much better than that of Arsene Wenger, and his voice is full of anxiety.

It's not terrible to lose one, but losing to a sworn enemy in the same city, losing to an ex who is far less evaluated than oneself, this kind of thing will inevitably cause indescribable damage to morale.

Three days from now, there will be a fierce battle, how can you swallow this breath now!

'Replace Grimandi, I think I should go up and play centre-back.'

Facing the anxious old man, You Mo was rarely serious. (To be continued.) )
