After two days with Zhang Xiaorui, the next stop was London, England. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Li Jingyu's words eased the knot in the hearts of several people to a certain extent, so the upcoming battle for the top spot in the Premier League became an irresistible temptation.

Although the two teams still have a whopping eight points difference, the contest has not attracted any less attention. Needless to say, in the UK, the duo of Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson has risen to the heights of the national derby. Germany, the home camp of You Mo and Lu Wei, the two compatriots in the Dutch thigh, the French country where the heat of the World Cup has not disappeared, and of course, the Chinese people who are in a tangled mood, are all paying close attention to this peak matchup.

Zhang Xiaorui regretted not making the trip because the Eredivisie did not enter the winter break, but considering the poor English level of the other four brothers, he still gritted his teeth and called You Mo.

Such hesitation is not due to the character of the little fat man.

He knew very well what their boss was, and the war was imminent, and he had to be distracted from thinking about the future of his brothers, which would naturally have unnecessary impact.

As a result, Yu Mo's reaction was somewhat unexpected.

It's just a matter of arranging for the sister-in-law to accompany her, and take the initiative to ask what the situation is with the five of them?

He wanted to ask why, but he couldn't help it.

The boss has a long-term consideration, and since he asked, the answer is that as a younger brother, his curiosity can't be too strong, otherwise it will mess up the relationship with each other.

After chatting casually, Zhang Xiaorui took the initiative to hang up the phone.

In the past few years, he has made a lot of progress in dealing with people, and many times he will consider problems from the perspective of others. Some time ago, You Modu was about to be hacked into a briquette by the domestic and foreign media, and at this stage, he must be holding back his strength and preparing to amplify his moves. It's enough trouble for him to throw these goods to the other party, and it's naturally not appropriate to blindly inquire about something.

After informing him of the itinerary and precautions, he could only watch the four guys leave him impatiently.

It's a dog!

Looking at his apartment that had been turned into a kennel, Zhang Xiaorui thought hatefully.

21 December 1998. Highbury Field, London.

Light rain, 3 degrees Celsius, northerly wind level 2.

The four elder brothers in the stands are all masters who have seen the world, and they will not be moved by the movement created by the 38,500 spectators, which really makes them jaw-dropping. It was a string of numbers that Wang Dan read out casually.

Around 210 million viewers in 172 countries around the world are tuning in at the same time.

In order to make the numbers more vivid and intuitive, reporter Wang Da deliberately found a comparison.

The battle for the top spot in May this year to determine the Bundesliga title was the highest in the Bundesliga with 150 million viewers, far exceeding the previous record of 80 million.

Such an exaggerated gap made the four guys unable to come back to their senses for a long time.

The domestic live TV broadcast is still dominated by Serie A and Bundesliga, and the focus battle can have a viewing audience of 40 or 50 million, but this discount is still over 100 million!

"What about the Champions League, what kind of ratings is it?" Li Jingyu is now stepping out of the country with both feet, and his vision is naturally incomparable to the three local veterans around him.

"The Champions League final was watched by around 500 million people. Not far from the record of 580 million in the World Cup final. Wang Dan obviously did his homework, his expression was calm at this time, and his tone was gentle.

In fact, I was already overjoyed!

The four in front of her are all her potential customers, although the businessman is not profitable, but she really does not pay attention to the well-paid broker commission.

She knows very well that coming out is nothing, standing up is the ability!

But no matter what, making up your mind to come out is always the first step. If you can't take this step, everything else is not to be discussed.

"The Champions League is really high enough that it's not surprising that the ratings are catching up with the World Cup. But the Premier League is only ranked fourth in the top five leagues, why is there such an exaggerated viewership? ”

The two guys from the army are more interested in reputation, and the above staggering numbers have the most impact on them. Li Jian also did his homework before he came, but the Internet in China has just emerged, and these people with a low level of education have not been exposed to those new things.

"First of all, style."

Reporter Wang Da began to talk eloquently, "You have all played football since childhood. Naturally, watching football will not only watch the excitement, but in fact, most of the fans will not play football, and there are not a few who watch the excitement. Those repeated inverted feet, passing and cutting coordination, tactical discipline. In fact, all of them have reduced the intensity of the game to a certain extent. ”

"To put it simply, it just can't attract a layman audience!"

"It's true that the Premier League is behind Serie A and La Liga in terms of technical level, but this league understands the huge role of the market, whether it is the FA or the clubs, the players. Therefore, this league is the most intense, the fastest paced, and of course the most suspenseful. ”

"The second is promotion."

"For any league to attract an overseas audience, the reach of the TV network is crucial."

"You can't just read the newspaper every week and become a die-hard fan of a team, right?"

"Premier League broadcasting is about the value of the league as a whole, so from the first year of the Premier League, the FA has been actively promoting itself."

"Self-promotion, the price is easy to say, anyway, if you don't look good at it, you won't continue to watch it for nothing, and you're willing to give more money if it's interesting."

"In this way, the coverage of the Premier League is starting to become wider and wider, and the middle and lower teams are getting more and more TV broadcast income, so the competition in the league will not be like the Bundesliga and La Liga, because the gap between strength and weakness is too large and lose suspense."

After saying so much in a row, Wang Dan grabbed the mineral water in his hand and poured it violently.

She was very pleased with the response of the four audience members.

None of them had eyes shining so brightly that their saliva overflowed, but they all put on a thoughtful look.

"From this point of view, the commercialization and standardization of professional football is very important, and the needs of fans are taken into account if these foreign leagues can prosper for a long time."

Seeing that Teacher Wang entered the intermission, Sui Dongliang, a good student, naturally spoke enthusiastically.

The scene in front of him reminded him of the conversation they had in the autumn five years ago, on their way to the island country, at a height of 10,000 meters.

It's just that at that time, it was Qi Jiajun who was discussed. The purpose is how to give full play to the combat effectiveness of the team, but now it is working separately to discuss how to better develop in a highly competitive environment.

If you want to revitalize national football, there is a long way to go!

"Yes, commercialization is a double-edged sword, and excessive it can also bring harm. But let's be honest. Without commercialization, where would professional players get such high incomes, and what would the football industry rely on to sustain it? Wang Dan nodded, looked at the other party carefully, and continued: "It's not that China doesn't pay attention to commercial development, but to be honest, there has been no change in a team in a few years, and the name has changed several times, do you think this is commercialization?" ”

"Bubbles." Li Jian shook his head decisively. A look of disdain.

"That's right, not focusing on improving the overall level of the league, ignoring the needs of the fans, and in the end everything is in plain sight. The Premier League is now becoming more and more influential, and top players are optimistic about the prospects and markets here, and with it, it is natural that there will be continued prosperity. ”

As Wang Dan spoke, his attention began to slip.

The high-powered speakers at the scene began to broadcast the names of the two sides, although they already knew the answer. But there are always some lucks hidden in the bottom of my heart.

As it turns out, there is no market for luck, and both teams are currently in full lineup. In order to prepare for this crucial battle, they sent most of their substitutes in the last game.

Now it is natural that the whole main force is going into battle.

Manchester United still dominate the 442, with the starting line-up being the same as when the two teams met in the Charity Shield. Arsenal's 4411 formation was pitched out, with only two youngsters, Ashley Cole and Ljungberg, replacing Winterburn and Palo.

If there is no change in the central axis, the team's tactical play will not change much. Although Wang Dan is what she calls a "fan who can't play football", she still has a lot of professional knowledge.

You Mo and Lu Wei both started the game last week, and both have the ability to change the course of the game in their limited bench time, so it makes sense to be on the bench at the moment.

It's just that the younger brothers of the past have come to see it together, isn't it regrettable that this scene of sitting in rows and eating fruits and fruits?

Fortunately, Zhang Xiaorui said hello in advance. The four guys also knew exactly what the reason for this situation was, so they didn't make a fuss and shouted.

"Well, that's fast!"

When it was less than ten minutes, some of the guys who had seen the world couldn't help it and sighed with emotion.

Sui Dongliang.

This is the top fast horse in domestic football, and he can naturally find the difficulty from the seemingly simple actions.

"Well, it's not just the action, it's the pace of the game."

Li Tie is actually a quick temper, and this style of directly the guy without temptation is deeply in line with him. But let's be honest, he doesn't move fast enough, and his best long-range shots need to take a little more time to correct the crosshair.

"Yes, observing, thinking, judging, these things that tend to slow down the motion have been strengthened to the greatest extent, without enough mental preparation and game experience, the action will definitely be out of touch with the game." Sui Dongliang looked at Li Jingyu, who had been silent next to him, a little strangely, and his heart was full of doubts.

Isn't this a chatter, why is it so silent today?

"This style of play requires a lot of physical fitness, Da Yu is fortunate that you didn't choose here, otherwise the small body can't carry it for two months, and you have to go to the infirmary for overhaul!" Li Tie was also a little strange, so he patted the shoulder of the goods and said half-jokingly.

"I'm thinking about something, mess with Mao interrupting me?" Li Jingyu turned his head unhappily, and felt even more unhappy when he saw the comb's straight partial, "Li Datie, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, and you don't want to think about it, if the two bosses are here, what will the game look like?" ”

"It's hard to say." Li Jian took over the conversation and elaborated his opinion, "The styles of the two of them don't match their own teams, I really don't know what they thought about the transfer at the beginning." ”

"What the boss thinks is something you can guess?" Li Jingyu was not afraid in the face of this tall and strong goalkeeper, and gave a little thumbs up in return.

"Oh yes, sister-in-law, what was the situation at that time, let's hear it!" Li Tie relied on his thick skin to simply gossip.

"Oh, I guess you don't believe it!" Wang Dan deliberately sold Guanzi.

"Believe it or not, listen to it!"

"Don't talk to the outside world, listen." Wang Dan made a mysterious appearance and lowered his voice, in fact, there were foreigners around him, and it was strange that he could understand Chinese.

"Your boss is a Manchester United fan, Lu Wei is an Arsenal fan, but in the summer, one of the two clubs lacked a midfielder and the other lacked a striker, and in the end it was wrong."

Such an answer really stunned the four elder brothers.

After a while, the guy with a big heart opened his mouth and pointed to the truth.

"Could it be that the boss came to Arsenal to help Lu Wei realize his ideals?"

Li Jingyu scratched his head vigorously as he spoke, and only then did he stop and continue to sigh when the other party's affirmative eyes and movements appeared, "The boss really does things differently from others, but in this way, doesn't Lu Wei owe him a lot of favors?" ”

Hearing this, Li Tie looked disdainful, "How can it be, didn't Lu Wei also help the boss realize his ideals?" ”

"It's not the same difficulty, you look at the situation of the boss in the team now." Li Jian's mind was more delicate, and after listening to Da Yu's words, he did not immediately refute it, but calmed down and pondered it carefully, and the result was straight to the truth.

"Yes, Ferguson is so Lu Wei to protect him, after all, Manchester United have a rough style and have more physical contact with opponents. His physical condition is there, and if he is injured repeatedly at a young age, it will affect him too much. Sui Dong forgave for a moment and followed the train of thought, and his face became serious as he spoke, "The situation of the boss is not so simple, Wenger's most proud disciple was actually taught by him in the locker room, which shows that this team has many internal problems." ”

"yes, who's to say it isn't." Wang Dan sighed and looked at the field fixedly.

Manchester United withstood Arsenal's opening three and the situation tended to ease.

The hard power of the two teams is actually half a pound or two, and when the starting lineup has not changed much, tactical strategy and on-the-spot play have become the winners and losers of the game. However, it is clear that the two old guys did not underestimate each other's combat effectiveness, so the game on the field looked quite lively, but in fact, the situation was not open at all.

Manchester United are already eight points behind their opponents, and it is inevitable that they will be reluctant if they only get one point in this game, but the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake and naturally defends the counterattack at Arsenal's home stadium. Arsene Wenger also considered this possibility, and had already prepared for the pre-match set-up, and it was still early to take the risk of making the game unpredictable.

"I heard that the boss saved Lu Wei's life when he was young, will this matter in front of you cast a shadow on the relationship between the two......" Li Jingyu failed to continue to grow old and steady in front of these guys, and he knew that it was inappropriate after blurting out at this time, so he quickly shut up.

The relationship between the two bosses was actually gossiped by them in private, and the conclusions were also strange, but out of intuition, they all felt that it was due to You Mo's eldest brother style.

"Yes, it's better not to give too much, I don't know what Lu Wei thinks, but after his goal appeared, I feel like he has changed." Wang Dan immediately remembered that Lu Wei went to see a psychiatrist, and his heart moved after he finished speaking.

Is such a contrary style of play a sign that both guys are looking for a breakthrough?

"Well, it makes sense, instead of pushing yourself, you should play to your strengths and give the choice back to the manager. This practice is relatively mature, and it should be done after getting rid of the psychological shadow. Li Jian nodded and continued to analyze: "Helping others realize their ideals is, to put it bluntly, helping others to work." No matter how well you do it, the sense of belonging is always a little worse, and in this situation, it is better to let go of the pursuit of self. ”

"I just said that the boss played a little strange last game, do you think so?" Li Jingyu's eyes widened, and the answer in his heart was already about to come out, "It's just that this kind of kick requires a lot of their personal ability, and to put it bluntly, it's thankless!" ”

"Yes, the two of them have not given up on the national football team, they are sharpening themselves in this way." Wang Dan sighed, with mixed feelings in his heart.

The taste of a lonely hero is not pleasant, and when you succeed, you will naturally praise a piece, but what about when you fail?

Not to mention the morality of the media, what about domestic fans?

"Yes, it seems that being content with the status quo is irresponsible."

After Sui Dongliang said this, he only felt that the stone in his heart had finally landed. (To be continued.) )
