Chapter 242: The first action after the assets are credited
Marseille was also the starting point of Carbinet's football career, and the blame was that he was not disturbed too much by the local fans on the way from the compound to the hotel, except for the fat driver earlier, Carbinay did not have the opportunity to sign for the second fan at all.
After the siege at the airport a few hours earlier, and then again in the city of Marseille, CabinΓ© was confronted with a bipolar phenomenon, he did not put a cap on his head or anything, and walked out of the street from the courtyard with his chest straight, and in ten minutes there were more than fifty passers-by who passed him, but not a single passer-by could recognize him.
Although he did not achieve any real success in this place, his original football dreams did slowly sprout in this old place, and he did not dare to guess how many local fans would recognize him, but it is clear that based on the current situation, it can only be said that Kabine needs to be a little more high-profile.
Outside the stadium, Carbine looked like a civilian, wearing an ordinary winter coat all the way, carrying a large backpack that was so worn out that there was absolutely reason to throw it away, and even choosing to take a taxi to the hotel without changing his style, even though the taxi driver looked like a fan, he did not have the slightest interest in Carbine.
"Am I being too low-key? Is there a lack of fashionable clothing? Or should I have a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of my nose? Or is it a supercar that lacks a heavy engine? β
Fresh from being named Europe's golden boy, Carbine's intuition is that his popularity in Marseille is far lower than expected, and perhaps Mr. Haas's words are very reasonable. At a time when CabinΓ© had not yet made a name for himself in Spain, he could only play as a well-known figure in the city of Granada.
Out of the city of Granada, the Carbine is nothing. The blockade at the airport just now seems like a very accidental phenomenon, but if you are lucky enough to run into a veteran fan, you may still be able to recognize Carbine, just like the fat driver before.
But at present, European football is still divided between Portuguese and Argentine, if you want the fans around you to be more enthusiastic about themselves, then Carbine not only has to play harder on the field, but also have the patience to wait for the fans' enthusiasm to come.
It's a good thing to be unrecognizable by the fans. At least Carbine's journey all the way to the hotel was very smooth, unlike the airport when it was blocked and it took a minute to walk one step at a time, and then came down to the booked hotel room. It was almost four o'clock in local time.
"Goo~~Goo~!"
As soon as he threw his large backpack on the soft bunk of the hotel room, there was a merciless signal in Cabine's stomach, and he touched his belly for two or three turns, and said that the people of Marseille had not yet had time to know me anyway. It's better to give up the in-room meal service. Go to the hotel's restaurant and see what's on offer.
Ten minutes later when he sat down at a table in the corner of the hotel restaurant, he was not particularly interested in the dishes of his hometown, and instead of blindly looking for the famous dishes of Marseille on the menu, he flipped through the table of contents before stopping on one of the pages.
"Hmm~~? Spicy sausage toasted bread, hoisin sauce powder, lemonade, thank you! β
Kirbine finished ordering. The restaurant waiter who wrote the order also took a few steps back, and then took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket. I wanted to take advantage of this short free time to check the specific location of Airy's hardware store on the Internet, after all, I haven't been back to Marseille for several years, and it's not uncommon to say that some places have changed their style.
He accurately figured out the location of the store in the online map, and then took a screenshot of the map and saved it to the picture library with one button, so that he could take it out and take a closer look when he couldn't find a place for a while.
Before the white fork was officially stabbed into the powder, Carbine suddenly lowered the fork from mid-air, and finally put it back next to the knife, and the reason for the temporary interruption of the whole meal action was actually because the ringtone of Carbine's mobile phone rang.
Although there are not many friends around Cabine, there are many possibilities for who is calling this call, maybe the squirrel who is on vacation in Panama came to call, wanting to show off how beautiful the scenery is in Panama in front of his ear, or the boy from Andosina called to ask when he would go back to Granada, or it is more likely that Rofman completed the medical examination process with the Porto team and came to call to let him know.
"Huh? Could it be that the Chinese girl Yan Ming came to find herself on the phone? β
In the three seconds between putting down the fork and grabbing the phone in one hand, Kabine thought of many possibilities, but one of the most likely possibilities he didn't think of was Mr. Haas, the agent who had been taking care of him.
"Hello? Mr. Haas, are you back to Eindhoven? After pressing the answer button, this is what Kabine asked.
He heard that the environment on the other end of Mr. Haas's phone was very noisy, so he said "hey" again, and then Mr. Haas's phone actually responded, only to hear Mr. Haas's reply: "I almost hit a passer-by just now, huh......?" Yes, I'm back to Eindhoven, that is, I just got off the plane, and I'm not looking for you to disturb your vacation time, I have something to report to you in time. β
With an "um" sound, one of the fingers of his right hand flicked the tip of the fork and said, "It's okay! I'm alone in the hotel restaurant, and I have time, you say! β
On the other end of the phone, Mr. Haas gasped and said, "Do you remember the sports brand endorsement contract I told you about last time?" I've already agreed with the executive manager of the brand that the relationship will be formalized as soon as you arrange a time after you take a break to sign an endorsement contract, so I have to congratulate you here. β
Kabine said, "Oh~? Mr. Haas, isn't that expected? Is it necessary to come and talk to me in such a hurry? It's not too late for you to come back and let me know when you get home and take a shower? You really need a good rest, too. β
I only heard Mr. Haas "snort" and said: "If it weren't for the fact that I had to hurry back to the office to deal with the end of the scouting report, I would have liked to do what you said, but time can't stay for half a moment, and it is a fact that my work has not been completed, so I must do my best to complete it, so as not to be urged by the superiors." β
Kabine said, "Understood! That...... What are you actually going to congratulate me? β
Mr. Haas laughed and said, "Now that you have established a partnership with such a well-known sports brand, not only will your personal popularity increase, but also your personal assets will increase several times!" Isn't that good? β
Kirbine's face did not move, but he thought for a few seconds before he said to Mr. Haas, "Since that is the case, then I am ready to spend a lot of money." β
Mr. Haas asked, "Oh? Do you want to change your accommodation? I can help you with this. β
Cabine shook his head and said, "No, I don't need to change places to live, I just want to allocate a sum of money to donate to the institution, just as my simple return, this time I went back to the courtyard and saw that the white paint on the court was about to fall off, and I inevitably felt a little sour in my heart."
