ball at foot

Regarding the Ballon d'Or, we should have a good talk. "

On the national team match day in November, Morientes did not play-now the Spanish national team, he has been reduced to the fourth candidate.With Raul, Torres, Villa and others, he is nearly 30 years old, and he is not yet the main player in the club, and his opportunities are getting less and less.

"I can't take it anymore. I admit it. Isn't it okay? What else do you want to talk about?" Zhao Yaning's temper was not very good at this time. Even if Mo Luo persuaded him, he still couldn't listen. Congratulations to the person who won the award again? Or admit that I did play match-fixing? Morrow, you have known me for two years, and you know me very well. Don’t say that I have not played match-fixing. Let’s take a step back, my Ranking of the Golden Globes, what did they see the performance of the national team? When comparing me and Sheva, it was Sheva who led the team to qualify. Is it because Asia is weak? There are many Chinese? So it is a matter of course for us to qualify? Since they don’t pay attention to Asian football at all, why are they talking about this? If I am not Chinese, how could they treat me like this!”

These Europeans made Zhao Yaning really disappointed: all along, because he is a star, after all, he is a rich man, few people would embarrass him in front of him.However, although these people didn't say anything in person, they always looked down upon him in various evaluations.For a long time, Zhao Yaning has been patient. Asian football is weak and has not produced talents, so being looked down upon by others is due to historical reasons. He can understand-he keeps telling himself that.But this time, the match-fixing incident made him understand that they were simply discriminating against him.

"I understand."[

"You don't understand, you are European, and you Europeans are all the same." Zhao Yaning waved his hand, ignoring his words.

"I'm Spanish." Morientes didn't care about his attitude, hugged his shoulders, and said, "Spain has not had a Golden Globe winner for 40 years. People all over the world say that the Latin nation The probability of winning the Golden Globe is higher. But in fact, Italy, Argentina, and Brazil have a high probability of winning the award. The French are still considered Latin nations, and they also have the same high probability of winning the award. But we Spaniards have nothing The probability of winning. The Spaniard has always been angry in Europe, we are not only spectators of history, we are also spectators of football."

His words calmed Zhao Yaning a lot, although he didn’t know if what Moreau said was true—he even learned Chinese history very badly, and of course he didn’t know what Spanish history was like.But Morrow's words really made him calm down and began to listen to him.

"You are not the first person I know who is angry and depressed because he can't win the Golden Globe Award. In fact, among the teammates I know, you are the third person who complains about this problem."

"Who are the first two? Raul should be one, what about the other one? Qi Zu?"

"Of course not. Qi Zu doesn't value these things very much, and he doesn't lack such honors... The other person is Carlos." Morientes replied.

"Robert Carlos?" Zhao Yaning was a little surprised.

"Yes, that's him. Did you watch Real Madrid in 2002? He was half of us, he started a lot of the attacks on the left, that was the year he came closest to the Ballon d'Or, the Champions League winner, The winner of the World Cup, all the most important awards, recognized as the No.1 in the same position, but it’s a pity. After the awards were awarded that year, I saw him cry for this incident with my own eyes, and it was very painful.”

This is indeed something that Zhao Yaning has not noticed. He doesn't watch La Liga very much, and he doesn't know Carlos' performance that season.But when you think about it, it is true that in 2002, Carlos ranked second in the Golden Globe Award. Compared with Ronaldo, who was dazzling in that World Cup, he was only more than 20 points behind-as a defender, this ranking is simply super. almost imagined.Except for Maldini and Carlos, no one can come close to this position.He always thought that Carlos had such an excellent Ballon d'Or ranking, so he shouldn't complain, but thinking that in 2002, many people accused Ronaldo of only playing for two months and shouldn't be awarded the Ballon d'Or, Zhao Yaning also understood Confused his mind: half of the core of the Champions League, an indispensable member of the World Cup, is well-deserved No.1 in his own position, such a result, lost to a controversial winner, naturally No wonder he was suffering.

"Raul, Robert, plus you, you are all people I have seen who are eligible to win the Golden Globe Award, but may not get it for various reasons." Morientes continued, " Wronged, should have, angry, should have, unwilling, depressed, all should be. But, Joey, you know, you are much luckier than them. Do you know why I say that? Because you still have a chance. Raul was caught, and Robert was on the same team as Ronaldo after the summer of 2002, no matter how hard they tried, it was useless. But you are different, those are just rumors, and you can still prove yourself to the outside world.”

Zhao Yaning opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to speak, "Looking at the attitude of the media towards me, no matter how good I play, it will be difficult for me to win an award."

"Okay, then, let's not talk about the award." Morientes thought for a while, "Then have you ever wondered why the Golden Globe Award is valued by others? It is obviously just an award selected by the media, why? Will so many people value him? Why is he considered the highest award in football?"

Zhao Yaning frowned. He had never thought about this question.Why is the Golden Globe considered the highest award?Hasn't it always been?

"The reason why the Ballon d'Or is valued is because it is the representative of the fans. Any media must take into account the thoughts of their fans, for example

But what Morrow said is not wrong. They made things difficult for me. In the final analysis, they came here to please the fans?As long as I can convince the fans with my performance, they will not dare to confront the fans after all.

It's just, it's so difficult...

"Thank you, Moreau." Although he was even more depressed, at least he was not so restless at this time.He understood what Morientes meant, and encouraged him to continue playing well. In this way, he would understand after he calmed down.

"It should be, encourage and support each other, so that we can go further." Morientes patted him, "Play well, believe me, that award will definitely not escape your palm!"

Nodding, before he could say anything, Zhao Yaning's phone rang.After answering the call, Zhao Yaning smiled, "Mo Luo, I found a way to shut up the media."

"What way?" Morientes was a little surprised.

Do you remember, I said, that adidas wanted to sign me? "

"I don't remember clearly. I don't care much about this kind of thing... But it seems that there is such a thing. What's wrong?"

"Adidas has already confirmed that they will pay Nike liquidated damages, and at the same time give me an extremely considerable signing fee and about seven years. They will pay a total of 7000 million euros for signing me, the largest sneaker sponsorship contract in the world. .”

The icing on the cake is not as good as the timely assistance, and Adidas obviously understands this truth.When Zhao Yaning was in trouble, they immediately accelerated the process of negotiating with Zhang Yuan, not only agreed to the contract, but also took the initiative to extend the term.This made Zhang Yuan admire their boldness and decisiveness. It was of course the most timely to provide such a long-term contract when Zhao Yaning's reputation was at its worst.Given the influence of Adidas, how many newspapers would doubt their winks and be bold enough to hype their players?

"Moreover, Milan's Kaka and I will be the spokespersons of Adidas' new pure series." Zhao Yaning said.

Morientes certainly understood the meaning of this.Endorsing a series of football shoes is absolutely the treatment of a top star. Based on this alone, the media's doubts about Zhao Yaning's strength are all ridiculous.Who would have doubted that Adidas' signing star, the spokesperson of the series of sneakers, would be a person who is not strong enough to play match-fixing?Even if they dare to doubt, who among them would dare to offend Adidas and accuse Zhao Yaning?

I'm afraid that those who still write about Zhao Yaning's match-fixing today will have to report how amazing Zhao Yaning's big contract is tomorrow... After receiving this unexpected assistance, the real numbers are enough to make them all shut up Mouth.The largest football sponsorship contract represents not only money, but more importantly, status.

"Then I should congratulate you for finding a way to silence the media so quickly."

"There is nothing to congratulate. Moro, you are right. These methods are just to shut up the media. What I want now is not just to shut them up. What I want to do is to let them have such a day, Start praising my name. As you said, conquering people's hearts is the hardest thing, but the hardest thing is the most challenging thing to do!"

ps: I checked the endorsement fees of football players, and the 2010-year 4 million euros signed by Luo in 2400 is the highest record.But at that time, he directly renewed his contract with Nike, saving liquidated damages, signing fees and so on.And checked the previous ones, in 2006, in order to sign a 4-year contract with Messi, Adidas spent 3000 million euros, including liquidated damages.
