Chapter 22 What, League of Legends is looking for endorsements? Or is it this sky-high price?
Tony Pulis, who was born in January 1958, is 54 years old this year.
Although this age is not too old for a coach, it is unfortunate that the 54-year-old Tony Pulis was diagnosed with a heart attack at the beginning of the year.
Heart disease, even an ordinary person has to stay away from this most blood-pumping football field.
But Tony Pulis persevered.
As he told his fans, he has to watch his favourite Stoke City stay in the Premier League!
In the first three rounds of the league, Stoke City won 3 games, 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss!
For Stoke City, which are aiming for relegation, this result is good enough.
However, Tony Pulis is still not satisfied!
For him, he only feels safe if he gets more points in the early stages of the league when his team is full of players.
This is not!
Even in the face of the strongest blue moon in the Premier League today, he is thinking about how to snatch a point or something in front of the blue moon.
As for why Tony Pulis is aiming for 1 point?
Naturally, Tony Pulis was already thinking about giving up the attack in order to draw Manchester City and defend to the death.
'I have a lot of respect for my opponents, but Man City are here to get all three points!'
Tony Pulis did not give any interviews, but Mancini started the balabala after getting off the plane.
The record of winning all three games made Mancini, who was only resigned to the end last season, suddenly have confidence.
Now Mancini, as long as he sees reporters, he must answer questions as a defending champion manager.
Just like at this moment!
Mancini said that he was very happy, but few of the reporters who had been waiting for a day cared about him.
After seeing Su Qin and Aguero talking and laughing, the reporters immediately left from around Lao Man like birds and beasts.
It's just that to the disappointment of the reporters, Su Qin, who had been rushing back and forth for so long to catch the plane, had no intention of being interviewed at all.
Straight out of the passage of the airport and got into the bus.
All right!
Seeing Su Qin's still yawning.
The reporters also knew they couldn't ask anything.
September 24, 2012!
The fourth round of the Premier League has officially begun.
At the Britannia Stadium, which can accommodate 27,400 fans, Stoke City faced Manchester City, who had the main force except Su Qin!
At the pre-match press conference just now, Lao Man once again reiterated his goal for this game!
3 points!
However, what I didn't expect was that Tony Pulis, who was sitting next to Mancini, was not used to Old Man at all, saying that his Stoke City was ready to beat Manchester City 0.
Get!
This makes Lao Man angry.
In other words, even Real Madrid Mourinho doesn't dare to speak so loudly to himself now, and you, a small manager who is ranked 9th in the league, dare to say 0 Manchester City?
So, in the dressing room, Lao Man patted his chest and shouted for Manchester City to launch a direct onslaught from the opening!
In Lao Man's opinion, for a small Stoke City, even if Su Qin is too tired to take a little rest in this game, there will be no big problem.
But!
When the referee's whistle blew, Toni Pulis unveiled his customised 6-3-1 formation.
Old Man was dumbfounded.
Not only Lao Man, but Lao Huang in the commentary seat was indeed stunned by Tony Pulis's sassy operation.
"Amount"
"This is probably the most I've seen in my career as a football commentator. The most it's the formation! ”
"Okay!"
"Stoke City's starting goalkeeper: Maine Pai!"
"Left wing-back: Shawcross!"
"Mid Lane Position: Smith, Fox, Sotner, Nathan Collins four in a stepped position!"
"This, although it looks like four central defenders, but in fact, the positions of Sotner and Nathan Collins are actually slightly forward, and it should be the way of playing from defenders to midfielders!"
"Right wing-back: Ball!"
"Central midfielders: John Mikel, Badu Ndiaye, McLean!"
"Solitaire: Jack Clark!"
No stars!
But Tony Pulis really made such an explosive lineup on his home turf.
A total of 9 defensive players!
It's still home!
That's it!
The first 45 minutes ended with almost 75 per cent possession at Manchester City.
As for the score?
Naturally, it's still 0:0.
Aguero and Silva and Nasri, a few flea-like players, have no combat power in front of the iron-blooded Great Wall of Stoke City.
There was no way, after the intermission, Lao Man, who was still talking in front of reporters before, could only look at Director Su with some help.
All right!
Although he was very tired, since the head coach looked at him like this, how could Su Qin be embarrassed to continue to nap on the bench.
After nodding!
Lao Man has finally regained his confidence!
"As you can see, Stoke City is determined to defend it."
"Sue, you're on!"
"Sergio, come down first!"
Get!
As soon as he heard that he was going to come down again, Aguero was also angry.
But there is no way, who makes this dense defensive formation of pure central defenders, he is really not much use in the middle.
"Roar!"
"Sure enough, Su Qin is on the field!"
'After a short half-time break, Manchester City were the first to make a substitution.
"Su Qin replaced Aguero, who was completely caught up in the crowd tactics in the first half."
"But, seriously, in the face of such a dense defensive formation, Aguero really doesn't have much of an advantage!"
"Of course, this kind of defense is indeed a test for Su Qin!"
Lao Huang said with some apprehension.
It's just that he didn't say this for long.
Su Qin used a long-range shot to rewrite the score.
Yes!
Stoke City also wanted to deal with Aguero and wanted to press Su Qin in the penalty area.
But Su Qin, who had already changed Neymar's coquettish ball control before going on the field, never thought about entering the penalty area from the beginning.
Just more than thirty meters away from the fans, Su Qin used an extremely dashing croquette to drill out of the double clamp of Stoke City, and then directly kicked the heavy cannon without waiting for the other defenders to approach!
There were no surprises.
Su Qin's long-range shot was like a cruise missile, and it drilled into the corner of Stoke City's goal with unmistakable accuracy.
1:0!
"Boom!"
The Manchester City fans in the stands who were waiting for them to die finally released their frustration for 45 minutes at this moment.
And in the midst of such crazy screams, Su Qin naturally had a chic Soviet-style celebration in front of this group of Manchester City diehards!
Gorgeous jump, elegant turn and finally perfect landing!
"Su !!!"
With this Sue!
The game has also officially entered the exclusive rhythm of the Majin.
Stoke City is indeed heavily armed in the restricted area, but now Su Qin, after blessing his speed and flexibility, is no longer the standing stake Su who can only pestle in the restricted area.
The 65th minute of the game!
At the moment when Su Qin attracted most of the Stoke City defenders with a dashing dribble, Su Qin directly stabbed the ball to the feet of Silva, who was diagonally inserted down the right side.
No miracles appeared.
Bursting into the box, Silva fired a pinpoint shot into the far corner.
2:0!
"Pretty !!"
"Su Qin's ball pass is beautiful!"
"In the face of the five-man attack, Su Qin still selflessly sent the ball to Silva's feet and gave up his own goal!"
Zhan Jun wanted to meet the sentence, but when he heard Lao Huang's almost shameless comment, he could only angrily pick up his water glass and take a sip!
3:0!
This is the final ending.
When the referee's whistle blew, Lao Man on the sidelines walked quickly to his opponent for the first time.
"Congratulations! I really envy that you can have a player like Sue under your men! ”
Tony Pulis patted Old Man on the shoulder and said bitterly.
"Thank you!"
Although a little embarrassed, Mancini accepted Tony Priss congratulations with peace of mind.
Four wins in four battles!
It seems that Manchester City has indeed grown to the point where they can win the Champions League.
That night, Lao Man was very generous and gave all the Manchester City players a holiday.
In Lao Man's view, with this kind of big victory, there should be no big problem for the Manchester City players to go out to relax.
It's just that poor Su Qin didn't have time to rest at all.
Yes!
Su Qin had to leave by plane again.
This time, Su Qin's destination was farther away from the United States.
Of course, this time Su Qin didn't go to secretly engage in charity.
It's Raiola who has found himself another endorsement that can be said to be super super.
LOL!
A game aka League of Legends found Raiola not long ago.
Originally, in Raiola's cognition, this kind of game company was basically a small flow of poor people.
This time, however, Raiola was a bit of a blind eye.
There's no way, because this time it was LOL's current Huaxia agent Penguin Company who came to Su Qin on behalf of LOL!
Moreover, Penguin's first offer to Su Qin reached an exaggerated 30 million euros for 3 years.
This contract is almost overtaking Adi's contract.
As soon as he heard this offer, Raiola also immediately found Su Qin quickly.
And Su Qin, who was playing LOL at home, was also a little surprised when he heard that the penguin actually found him.
It stands to reason that Penguin hasn't bought Riot yet.
All right!
According to Su Qin's memory, in 2008, Riot did raise $8 million, introducing Penguin, Benchmark Capital and Firstmark Capital as investors, and Penguin then obtained the Chinese mainland agency of League of Legends.
However, in early 2011, Riot announced that it had acquired a majority stake in Tencent, an undisclosed sum that still required formal approval from some authorities.
By the evening of November 9, 2011, Penguin had announced in his annual report that they had acquired almost 92.78% of Riot's shares!
This moment!
Penguin has also become the owner of Riot today.
And this time, the penguin suddenly found Su Qin's endorsement, the most important thing is that a while ago, the girl posted a daily video on Su Qin's overseas shaking.
In this daily life, Su Qin is sitting shirtless next to the computer and playing LOL!
As soon as the video came out, many dicks suddenly spread the video of Su Qin playing lol.
In their words, how can a game that even the World Super Golden Globe Awards like to play be better than the so-called LOL's dad game dota1?
There was a scolding war on the Internet.
But the penguins saw a startling business opportunity.
You must know that it is only 2012, and League of Legends has not yet reached its peak, but at least Penguin has predicted the potential of League of Legends.
If you let a superstar of Su Qin's level endorse it, that kind of situation!
Even the Penguin executives couldn't believe that LOL would become a phenomenal game.
That's it!
Su Qin asked Raiola to start negotiations with Penguin.
And the outcome of the negotiations went well!
Su Qin signed a five-year contract, and for five years, Penguin will give Su Qin 12 million euros a year.
Moreover, if Su Qin won the Golden Globe Award that year, the penguin would add an additional prize of three million.
Although three million is a lot, for a big company like Penguin, it is just a skin!
Monday at 12 noon.
After more than ten hours of flight, the flight finally landed safely at Los Angeles International Airport in the United States.
As soon as the cabin door opened, Su Qin saw the person in charge of the Fist Company who had been waiting for a long time.
Of course, next to the person in charge, Brandon Baker, standing is the owner of the penguins, Niu Shuache!
“hello! su! ”
"Hello, Su Qin!"
A greeting for two people in two languages.
Brandon Baker naturally speaks English, while Mr. Niu may have deliberately spoken Chinese in order to get closer to Su Qin.
Get!
Not to mention, Su Qin really hasn't spoken Chinese for a long time.
For Chinese, he is still kind.
After all, it's been almost 5 years since I crossed into this world.
In my memory, my grandfather over there in Huaxia always thought that he was killed by the bomb like his parents, so he never contacted him.
And what about the Croatian uncle.
At that time, I was unreadable, herding sheep in minefields in exchange for food to survive.
Moreover, after the local youth team in Croatia saw that he had football talent, the so-called uncle directly sold him like a burden.
Therefore, whether it is the residual consciousness of his original body, or his self who has only traveled through for five years!
On the Croatian side, there are no good memories at all.
"Hello, Mr. Niu! Can you give me a 5-digit number? ”
Half-jokingly, Su Qin and the penguin boss Niu Zongmei, who was now planning to give him money, shook their hands together.
"Haha, Xiao Su, it's simple! We're glad you're endorsing our games! I believe that as soon as the promotional photos of your endorsement come out, our League of Legends will definitely become popular all over the world! ”
"Hey, hey, hey! Can I speak English? I don't understand! ”
was chatting energetically with Su Qin, and Brandon Baker, a novice of Mr. Niu, who was hanging over, shouted loudly in dissatisfaction.
PS: I don't know why, all of a sudden, so many people scolded me.
It's only been less than five years since the protagonist traveled through the past, and he has a fart feeling for Croatia, and he explained early on that the protagonist was sold by his uncle, and he herded sheep in a minefield when he was a child, and he can let his children herd sheep in a minefield, how good do you think his uncle will be to him?
There are also relatives in Huaxia who don't know that the protagonist is still alive, thinking that they were all blown up, and these have been explained.
I don't know why I write this, even one or two sentences, it seems to make some bigwigs feel disgusting.
There are even people who say that I wish me to be Chinese in the next life.
Well, I thank you for your blessings, I am a Chinese person, my son, my parents, all the people in my family are Chinese.
I'm proud that I'm a Chinese!
Is there anything else you want to wish me?
