I Just Can Score

"The number of goals scored by Zhen Shaolong is really terrible!" The person who expressed this emotion was not the media, nor the fans, nor the competitors, but one of the people involved in the goal, Newcastle United Club Chairman Michael Ashley. .

Ashley felt even more emotional because every time Zhen Shaolong scored, he would receive a large bonus from the club.

Now it’s peaking at £100,000!

In the past league, Zhen Shaolong has scored 45 goals. According to the contract between Zhen Shaolong and the club, he can get 1 million pounds after scoring 20 goals. After 20 goals, every goal bonus is The total bonus of 100,000 pounds and 45 goals has reached 3.5 million pounds.

This bonus amount is terrible.

The annual salary of some top stars is only three to four million pounds. Zhen Shaolong's goal bonus is higher than the annual salary of most stars.

This is not the final bonus. He will definitely score goals in future games.

Zhen Shaolong also has other bonuses.

If Newcastle can finish in the top four of the league, the contract stipulates that Zhen Shaolong can receive 1 million pounds.

Judging from Newcastle United's current results, there is definitely no problem in finishing in the top four of the league. Zhen Shaolong's goals and performance bonuses are equivalent to 4.5 million pounds. Considering the high annual salary of 10 million pounds, he has received 4.5 million pounds in the club. The salary and bonuses received can easily exceed 15 million pounds.

Ashley is heartbroken!

Of course he hopes to see the opposing star score more goals, but when the goals accumulate to a certain level, for example, the difference between 40 and 50 is not big. They are both numbers that other forwards can only look up to, but the club has to pay 100 more for it. million pounds.

There is no relevant image rights clause in the contract between Newcastle United and Zhen Shaolong. When signing the contract, Newcastle United just hoped to sign Zhen Shaolong and let him join to help the team achieve good results, rather than how much money he would make from him. .

Now Ashley regrets it to the extreme. Zhen Shaolong is scoring more and more goals and becoming more and more famous. However, the club does not want to rely on his fame to earn direct income. It can only use the club's own business channels, including selling jerseys. One item, but for any Premier League club, its own business operations will always be a fraction of its income.

For example, if a fan is willing to spend an additional 100 pounds to support the club, 100,000 fans will only have 10 million pounds, a large part of which is operating costs, and a part of the net profit must be distributed to the players.

It’s difficult!

Ashley is starting to worry about money!

Of course.

It is absolutely impossible for Ashley to sell Zhen Shaolong. For example, some time ago, Chelsea Chairman Abramovich secretly inquired through an intermediary whether he had any thoughts on selling Zhen Shaolong. Ashley only said one sentence The words, “Dream!”

"Who wants to take Zhen Shaolong away... If Zhen Shaolong agrees, just pay the liquidated damages!"

Zhen Shaolong's contract penalty is as high as 200 million pounds, which is higher than the market value of some big clubs. The amount is absolutely stable. Ashley does not think that any club will spend more than 200 million pounds for Zhen Shaolong.

That's crazy!

The reason why Ashley didn't sell Zhen Shaolong is very simple: as a pure businessman, he will only count money inward and not outward. No matter how much money Zhen Shaolong gets, he will not create much profit for the club. For a professional club, results can directly bring benefits.

This season, Newcastle United will definitely have no problem reaching the top four, not to mention finishing first in the league.

This increases the bonus income of the Premier League. The league's bonus income is very small, but the first place in the league will also get more than ten million pounds more than the tenth place in the league.

A high league ranking will also increase the bonus of TV broadcast sharing, and the increase will definitely exceed tens of millions of pounds.

Then there is commercial sponsorship.

Newcastle United can reach the top four in the league and has also received huge attention at home and abroad. It will definitely be able to negotiate new sponsorships and the income from commercial sponsorships will also increase to a certain extent.

In addition, Newcastle United has reached the top four in the league, and we can look forward to next year's UEFA Champions League.

The Champions League is all about money!

These are visible incomes, but Ashley will not calculate them. He thinks the best result is, "Every time Zhen Shaolong scores a goal, it helps the team win 'just', and he can score a goal to win." In the next game, there is no need to score as many as six goals..."

"Right, that is it!"

Ashley was a little regretful that the score was beyond his control.

Therefore, the bonus must still be paid!

at the same time.

The outside world has also begun to report a lot, all of which are focused on Newcastle United's match against Manchester United. Many media reports use "bloodbath" as an adjective.

Some media even said, "Zhen Shaolong bloodbathed the entire Manchester United by himself!"

That's the truth.

Zhen Shaolong personally scored six goals, which not only set a new Premier League personal scoring record, but also set a new record for Manchester United's "goal scored". When talking about Zhen Shaolong's glory in the future, Manchester United will definitely be mentioned as a foil.

So using ‘bloodbath’ is not excessive at all.

Media reports have always praised Zhen Shaolong. The British media are good at doing this kind of thing. They can praise a young player who has just appeared on the field and accomplished an extraordinary feat and praise him as the future Maradona. Ball's young prospect, touted as surpassing 'alien' Ronaldo.

Zhen Shaolong has scored forty-five goals, continuously breaking various scoring records, and is very popular with fans. He has great potential to be 'touted'.

According to the British media, Zhen Shaolong has been recognized by the whole world as the 'world's number one striker'.

"He will definitely surpass all kinds of legends in the future... No, he is already surpassing it!"

"He will become the most famous star!"

"The next ten years will belong to his era! No matter how good other stars perform, their stars will be dimmed in front of him. I have to say that living in the same era as Zhen Shaolong is the tragedy of other professional players..."

In addition, some media associate Zhen Shaolong with Chinese football. They believe that Zhen Shaolong will lead Chinese football to a complete rise.

Chinese media thinks so too.

The British media only mentioned in passing that the Chinese media had packaged Zhen Shaolong as Maradona. It did not mean that his skills were compared with Maradona. The two were in different positions and there was no point in comparing them. Worthiness is personal influence.

Maradona is called the 'King of Balls' not only because of his superb skills, but also his influence on Argentine football.

Before Maradona became famous, Argentina was an underdog in South American football. Not to mention the entire world, it was Maradona who led Argentina to win the World Cup. His success led to the development of Argentine football. In the past, In the past twenty years, Argentine football has been full of talents, including Messi, who is currently playing for Barcelona, ​​and newly famous Argentine stars. It can be said that they were influenced by Maradona.

Maradona is the ‘Argentinian Football God’.

The Chinese media also hopes that Zhen Shaolong can become the "God of Chinese Football", lead China to the top of the world, and rely on his personal influence to truly develop Chinese football.

"If Zhen Shaolong can do it, he will be much greater than Maradona, because he leads China..."

Compared with China, Argentina is a weakling...

Of course.

The media will definitely not say it so straightforwardly, but the meaning is actually the same. National influence is very important. For example, if you lead the development of football in the Maldives with your personal influence, no matter how large your influence is, the scale of your coverage will be too small.

China, 1.3 billion people!

With a large population, the difficulty will increase. Maradona's influence in China is a bit insufficient. Comments from domestic media said, "If he can do it, he will definitely become the greatest star in the century-old history of football!"

"Influence the development of football in China as a whole!"

"The pattern of world football will undergo major changes as a result..."

It was mentioned in many reports, and it was easy for Zhen Shaolong to see it. He continuously flipped through various news, feeling a little strange in his heart, "I just knew... I am so powerful!"

"I am a great man! I am a saint!"

"right!"

"The most influential star in the century-old history of football! I like this statement very much..."

"That's so good!"

"I will definitely become such a person in the future! No, maybe I am already..."

After reading many similar reports, Zhen Shaolong felt that he should get a tattoo and tattoo two words on his forehead -

Great!

big!

"That's wrong...it feels a bit weird to list these two words separately..."

When Zhen Shaolong was lost in thinking about the connotations of the two Chinese characters "wei" and "big", Claudio suddenly opened the door and walked in. She shouted excitedly, "Zhen! Zhen! Big news!"

"What?"

Zhen Shaolong turned his head and looked over.

"Last week, my latest video was released. There were only a few clicks at first, and it was only 10,000 or 20,000 per day. I don't know what happened yesterday, but the number of clicks suddenly increased to 100,000! My Facebook The attention has increased a lot, and now it exceeds 200,000!"

Claudio raised the corners of his mouth excitedly, with an expression of 'I'm awesome, worship me now'.

Zhen Shaolong nodded and analyzed calmly, "It should be related to our competition."

"What does my video have to do with your game?" Claudio asked angrily.

Zhen Shaolong pursed his lips vigorously and said matter-of-factly, "Don't forget, I posted a link on my Facebook and marked me as a guest..."

"It must have nothing to do with this!" Claudio gritted his teeth, unwilling to believe that his achievements would actually be linked to Zhen Shaolong.

Zhen Shaolong clicked on the browser and opened the Facebook page, "Look!"

Claudio saw a system prompt--

624213 new followers were added…

She didn't want to know the exact number, but it was just a lot.

Claudio felt that her self-confidence was greatly hurt by 999+. She vowed that she would never share any achievements with Zhen Shaolong next time, otherwise it would be too shocking to know that the reason was Zhen Shaolong.

She pouted and walked away silently.

————

Team training resumed the next day.

Zhen Shaolong came to the training ground early and met Michael Owen in the locker room.

Owen was sitting on a chair, his legs crossed together, his eyes closed and motionless, as if he was relaxing his mind, a posture that reminded people of the secrets of practicing magical skills in martial arts novels.

Zhen Shaolong waved and said hello, "Michael, congratulations on returning to the team! Butt... haha... how is your butt?"

Irving opened his eyes and asked in confusion, "Am I injured in my leg? The doctor said that I can train with the team first. I just need to be careful not to exercise strenuously."

"By the way, you said butt..."

Only then did Irving remember the important point, and his face suddenly darkened, "It's Stephen (Karl), not me!"

"oh."

Zhen Shaolong was suddenly a little embarrassed. Teammates were injured one after another. He couldn't remember which injury corresponded to which teammate. He always thought that Owen had a butt injury.

All right.

Just pretend this never happened.

Zhen Shaolong immediately changed the subject and asked doubtfully, "By the way, what are you doing sitting here?"

Owen's eyes flashed, and he immediately said, "Nothing, just close your eyes and take a rest. I heard that this can help you maintain a better spirit."

"Yeah?"

Zhen Shaolong is a little confused, but he sympathizes with Irving. Irving is the kind of player who is often injured. His condition and performance have been affected by injuries for a long time. He probably does some things that ordinary people can't understand?

A trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes, and he gave a friendly suggestion, "Michael, if you need help with anything, just say it directly. Of course, asking for money will be far away. In short, I still recommend that you see a psychiatrist. …”

"Change your clothes quickly!"

Owen showed extreme irritability and didn't want to talk more, and then continued to close his eyes, not knowing what he was doing.

While Zhen Shaolong was changing clothes, he kept looking over. He looked left and right, and even walked within a few meters. He found that Owen was indeed closing his eyes hard and was not pretending. He immediately took out his mobile phone--
