Chapter 130 The Difficult Press Spokesperson (2550 Monthly Pass plus more updates)

When Sharapova returned to the United States, Zenit St. Petersburg was challenging the standard scorching sun away. She didn't care about this game because she knew in advance that Chen Yingxiong would not play.

Without heroes, she wouldn't care about Zenit games at all.

She has her own troubles, because she has to face her father's questioning.

Sitting in the mansion she bought with her own money, Sharapova sat poker-faced on a sofa while her father stared angrily at his daughter.

"Who is that man, Maria?"

"A football player," Sharapova said quietly.

"Wrong, let me add to you, Maria. An obscure football player who played in Russia with little success."

Sharapova raised an eyebrow, but she said nothing.

"Why are you with him?" Sharapov, a father, was quite distressed when he asked this question, feeling like "hating iron can't make steel".

"We shot commercials together, and then we got to know each other."

"You're lying, Maria. You both met before filming the commercial. He is your gossip boyfriend that was rumored by the media! Ever since you met him, you have learned to lie, Maria..."

Sharapova rolled her eyes in her heart when she saw her father's heartbroken look.If he knew that he had slept in the same bed with that "promising football player", he wondered what it would be like...

"We're friends, does it matter?" Sharapova asked her father.

Sharapov was stunned for a moment, with a sullen look on his face: "Dracing together, are these ordinary friends?"

Sharapova thought about it seriously: "Well... it's closer than ordinary friends."

Seeing his daughter's indifferent attitude, Sharapov was very angry: "Don't dwell on these details! I just want to know if you and him are..." He didn't know what to say, he really didn't want to Say the word.

"Is it something?" This time it was the daughter's turn to push forward.

"Is it... is it the relationship that the newspaper said!"

"What does the paper say? I haven't read the paper these days, Dad."

"You know it yourself!"

"I really don't know, Dad." Sharapova spread her hands.

"You!" Facing his daughter who looked like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, Sharapov couldn't do anything.He didn't want to continue to entangle Sharapova on this issue so endlessly.Because he knew that his woman was definitely not as gentle and refined as the outside world knew...she was actually a girl with a very temper, personality and her own opinions.

If it's just like this, it will definitely be endless.

This point, as a father has been taught many times.

"You are the number one female tennis star in the world, Maria..." he eased his tone and said to his daughter.

"Not anymore, I'm in the top ten now, Dad."

"I'm not talking about WTA rankings! I'm talking about fame and influence, you are still the world's number one women's tennis star, Maria. You have to cherish your feathers, let's not talk about such trivial things as drag racing, and A no-nonsense guy with no future in the mix will only make people think that you are lowering your self-worth..."

"I don't make friends to improve my status, Dad."

"I know, I know, but your relationship with him has obviously aroused speculation in the media...it's not an ordinary friend..."

"The media always likes to play on rumors."

"Maria! In short, you have to pay attention to the distance from such a person, even if you are not for your own worth. You also have to think about whether others will use you to hype yourself... People who know you are obviously far more than people who know him !" Seeing that he didn't say a word, his daughter would push back tit for tat, Sharapov was very upset.

Get close to hyping him yourself?
Sharapova thought her father's words were ridiculous.

When is Chen Yingxiong's birthday, what zodiac sign he belongs to, which city in China is his hometown, what color he likes, what food he likes to eat, what idol he worships, and what he hates... She doesn't know any of these information, but she It was very clear that Chen Yingxiong was not the kind of person who would use himself to make hype.

For some reason, she felt that this Chinese guy, who is still unknown in the world, is a very confident person...

Such a person does not need self-hype.

Thinking of this, Sharapova laughed.

"Dad, don't worry about my affairs." Sharapova stood up and stretched herself. "I'm tired, I'm going to rest first."

Barefoot, she turned and walked upstairs.

Her father, Sharapov, stood there in astonishment, not thinking of stopping his daughter.

As a father who came to the United States with his daughter since he was a child, and worked hard for tennis, he suddenly felt that his daughter had grown up and her wings were hardened...

Zenit St. Petersburg drew 2:2 with Standard Liege in the away game, scored two away goals, and entered the UEFA Cup with one foot.

But no one cared about this game. The media in St. Petersburg and even Moscow only cared about the guy who didn't go to Belgium and didn't play in the game-Chen Yingxiong.

It seems to be intentional, Chen Yingxiong will hold a press conference to respond to the date of drag racing and the relationship with Sharapova on the day of the game...

However, Chen Yingxiong himself did not attend the press conference. He and Dracula hid behind the scenes and observed secretly.It was Vera Nikolaevna Ivanova who met with the media.

When everyone saw a tall woman with gold-rimmed glasses, her hair tied on top of her head, and a professional suit walking into the venue, they all froze for a moment.

Who is this beauty?

The host is still...

Vera leaned slightly, and approached the microphone: "Hi everyone, I am Vera Nikolaevna Ivanova, the press spokesman of Mr. Chen Yingxiong. This is the first time we meet. I believe we will deal with each other frequently in the future. .”

After speaking, she smiled slightly at the media.

Chen Yingxiong didn't know if this was his own illusion. He felt that the cold tone of the press conference was warmer as if spring had come.He felt that those reporters must feel like a spring breeze...

In fact, it was the same. These reporters were all overwhelmed by Vera's smile—this woman's smile had a natural affinity, as if it could dissolve all ice.The surprise in their hearts was even worse—where did Chen Yingxiong find such a beautiful and generous female press spokesman?Or is this kid really born to commit crimes?First, there were rumors of an unclear relationship with Sharapova, but now even the press spokesperson is a supermodel-level beauty!How enviable!

Dracula nodded, and Vera's answer was generous and decent, neither humble nor overbearing.Especially the last smile, which has a natural affinity and is not artificial at all.He felt that his cultivation of Vera these days was considered a success.

Only Chen Yingxiong grimaced beside him.Why is this woman, who can smile charmingly at the group of reporters who meet for the first time, so mean to herself?To others, she is a warm spring breeze, but to herself she is an iceberg beauty...

There is actually nothing to say about the drag racing issue, because the driver is not Chen Yingxiong, but Sharapova, and the handling of Sharapova by the St. To answer Sharapova's question, reporters should ask Sharapova's agent.

So the highlight is actually the relationship between Chen Yingxiong and Sharapova.

"They are just ordinary friends." Vera succinctly explained the relationship between the two.

To be honest, Vera didn't like this part of the content, because she had a feeling that Chen Yingxiong, a playboy, was flirting outside, and then she wanted to show her face, racking her brains to wipe his ass and get rid of the relationship.This feeling made her very uncomfortable.

But as I said before, Vera Nikolaevna Ivanova is a person who separates her personal emotions from her work.On the surface, no one could see her true thoughts.

"Give your car to a regular friend she uses to race?"

"Yes, yes, just for him to stay for an extra day and come to St. Petersburg to see his ordinary friend?"

Facing the questions from the reporters, Vera remained calm and replied calmly, "They are ordinary friends with a relatively good relationship."

Seeing Vera's charming smile at first, the reporters mistakenly thought that she was a relatively easy-to-talk, inexperienced rookie who would say everything as soon as she was bluffed.

Unexpectedly, Vera behaved like a battle-tested veteran. Facing the noise of the reporters, her clear eyes remained calm and she kept a polite smile on her face. It's far from perfect, like tea that has been brewed countless times, tasteless and tasteless.

No matter how hard the reporters made things difficult for her, threatened her, and lured her with rumors, her defense was impeccable.

In the end, the reporters still didn't dig out any gossip they wanted from Vera's mouth.

Everyone can only helplessly accept the fact that "Chen Yingxiong and Sharapova are really just ordinary friends who have a good relationship".

This was the first confrontation between them and Chen Yingxiong's spokesman, which left a deep impression on them.A few years later, when the entire European media knew that Chen Yingxiong had a difficult press spokesman, the Russian media took this first meeting as an anecdote.

But now, they don't think it's very interesting to deal with Vera. Although this woman is beautiful and has a warm smile, behind her is a tough attitude like an iceberg.Like the geniuses who took Yashin, she blocked out all the remarks and questions that might threaten her boss, and gave the boss a quiet space.

"How?" Dracula turned to look at Chen Yingxiong.

Chen Yingxiong knew that this person wanted to hear nice words.

However, he was indeed very satisfied with Vera's performance, and he felt that if he encountered any troubles in the future, he would leave it to this woman.I am happy to be free, unless he wants to play, that is another matter...

But he always wants to pick some bones in the egg.

Otherwise, how could he be worthy of that woman's cold face towards him?

"Excellent defense, but no counterattack. Only defense, no counterattack, but you can't win the game."

"Counterattack? If they are all like you, there will only be endless quarrels." Dracula knew what Chen Yingxiong meant-he thought Vera didn't slap those reporters face to face, she was too gentle and passive, she should Take the initiative.

Chen Yingxiong laughed: "That's exactly my style!"
