Ball King Pioneer

Chapter 68

Hefei Yuanyi Hilton Hotel, the Chinese team and the Jamaican team all stayed here, so Lin Yi simply arranged his family in this expensive hotel, and then smoothly joined the team.

There is still one day before the game, and the change of the coach of the Chinese team has been confirmed, but Camacho's appointment date has not been announced, so this warm-up match is generally considered by the outside world to be Gao Hongbo's last performance.The members of the Chinese team seemed somewhat helpless. All they could do was to win this match beautifully and give Gao a glorious farewell match.

Respectively, always in August!
Ji Dong just arrived at the hotel this afternoon, so he didn't participate in the afternoon training.Parents and younger sister were taken by Zhao Liying to visit the scenic spots in HF City, but Lin Yi wanted to stay in the hotel because a very famous guest wanted to meet him through the Chinese Football Association.Ji Dong is also his fan, but he just can't figure out why he would want to meet him.

The meeting place is interesting, not a coffee shop, not a hotel room, but...the gym!When Lin Yi changed into his sportswear and came to the hotel gym, he saw 6 tall men in black sunglasses and black suits waiting in a corner from a distance. It seemed that every one passing by was a paparazzi reporter.There is an acquaintance next to him, a staff member of the Chinese Football Association, who was the one who picked up the plane after returning from the Olympic Games in Oman.

Although there were as many as 6 bodyguards, and the hotel specially arranged 4 security guards to assist him, the first time Lin Yi entered the gym, the tall black man got up and quickly walked over to greet Lin Yi.

Although the visitor is still very young, he has long been a legend of mankind. This is the first time Ji Dong has seen a real person.He is over 190cm tall, with a bald head and a long face, big eyes, big nose and wide mouth, and a mouthful of big white teeth, which is the signature of a black man. He doesn't look very strong, but his muscles are very beautiful, especially the long legs exposed by the two shorts, which make people know the powerful explosive power inside.The person who came was the fastest man in the world, the current 100-meter and 200-meter world record holder known as "Lightning", Usain Bolt.

Seeing Bolt approaching and opening his arms, Ji Dong naturally opened his arms for a hug.Although it was the first time for the two to meet, both of them had familiar personalities, so naturally there was nothing they couldn't let go of.Ji Dong is now 180cm tall, half a head shorter than Bolt, and he looks a little "little bird and person" when hugging.

"Lin, it's nice to meet you. I love Manchester United. I'm a Manchester United fan. I'm glad you joined Manchester United. And you run too fast. I don't know how fast I am on the grass." Lin Yi didn't know if black people speak fast, but Bolt's speaking speed is probably not slower than when he broke the record.Moreover, Bolt's facial expression is very exaggerated, it seems that the world record belongs to Ji Dong, not him Bolt.

"Hehehe, dude, the world record is yours. I dare not compare my speed in front of you. In China, we have a saying called 'Ban Men get an axe', and later people invented a word 'Guan Gong uses a big knife in front of him'. These two sentences are used to describe an overconfident fool showing off his ability in front of a certain industry leader. It's like me telling you 'I run fast'. Dude, this will make me the laughing stock of the whole world, and the Chinese will invent a new word, probably called 'Bolt fights speed in front of', Please, I don't want to be what people call a fool!" Ji Dong's compliment was very interesting, because he was very happy to see that Bolt was listening seriously.

"It's amazing Chinese culture. I love Chinese culture so much. Why is there no Chinese class in Jamaica? It's so sad." Bolt's expression is exaggerated, and now he seems to be a compassionate educator.But after that, he immediately smiled brightly like a child again.

"Lin, I heard that Chinese people always give gifts when they meet for the first time, right? I have prepared a gift for you, what about the gift you gave me? I can't wait to see it!" Bolt's smile suddenly became a little cunning, like a child who has successfully played a prank.

Ji Dong was suddenly embarrassed. Damn, which one of us is Chinese? I didn't know there was such a thing.In other words, you can just give it to me, how do I know to prepare a gift!But no matter how thick-skinned Ji Dong is, he can't say that I'm unprepared.Ji Dong patted his forehead vigorously, and said, "Oh, no, I forgot it in a hurry when I came down, and I'll get it for you later, forgive me, the great Mr. Lightning."

Seeing Ji Yi playing tricks, Bolt felt that this new friend was not at all like the Chinese he knew before, and seemed to suit his taste, so he decided not to tease him anymore, "Okay, okay! I forgive you, now please take a look at the gift I gave you."

Bolt handed Ji Dong a beautifully packaged box. Everything on the box, including the ribbon, was golden. This was also Bolt's favorite color. According to his explanation, it was the color of a gold medal.To show respect, the gift is to be opened on the spot.Ji Dong took the box lightly, as if there was nothing inside.

"I thought you would give me the 1 kilogram of gold you won in the gold race as a gift, but I know you didn't do that when I got it." Lin Yi looked disappointed, and Bolt was not only not annoyed when he saw Lin Yi's expression, but became more happy.It seems that to communicate with people like Bolt, you need to know how to make jokes and be joked.

After all, Ji Dong opened the box immediately, and saw a pair of shoes inside, a pair of casual sports shoes, with red uppers and yellow laces, without any patterns on them, but a very simple signature on the outside of the instep of his left foot. Ji Dong looked hard and guessed that it should be Bolt's signature.The soles are black. Except for the diagonal stripes on the soles and heels, the middle arches are smooth. There are words on the arches of both shoes. The left shoe says "Chinese player Lin Yi" and the right shoe says "Looking forward to your greater legend!" It turned out to be in Chinese, and it should have been made when it was customized.

Red and yellow, this is the most Chinese color, plus Chinese characters and my name.Ji Dong knew that it was impossible for Bolt to prepare such a special gift, and it was not something he could prepare in a short time.Ji Dong knew that it seemed that Bolt was just a courier.

"Do you like it? You must know that the size and internal structure of this pair of shoes are unique. They couldn't get the data originally. I got your foot data from Manchester United as a special fan. Put it on and have a look. I think you will fall in love with this shoe." Bolt seemed a little embarrassed. Things that world-class companies cannot do, I Bolt can easily handle.

"Dude, I'm curious who you are referring to, and why they custom-made such a unique pair of shoes for me?" In fact, Ji Dong had already guessed the whole story, and just wanted to confirm it with Bolt.

"Look inside the tongue, that's what I'm talking about." Bolt giggled, as if he was waiting for Ji Dong to find the treasure by himself.

Ji Dong turned the tongue out, and sure enough, there was a leaping leopard inside, and the four English letters "PUMA".

really!

Ji Dong put on the shoes, tied the shoelaces, and then felt that there was almost nothing on his feet. He tried to take two steps. It was indeed like what Bolt said, and Ji Dong fell in love with this shoe immediately.Comfortable, very comfortable.Ji Dong tried running a few more steps on the treadmill. The shoes were not only comfortable, but also did not affect his movements. Whether it was step adjustment or frequency changes, it would not bring extra load to the feet.These are just casual shoes. If you wear spikes for competitions, how would you feel? I should like it better.It seems that the saying that half of an athlete's success depends on equipment is not necessarily scientific, but it definitely has some truth.Previously, Ji Dong's shoes were all bought in stores. Although they were also professional equipment, there was still a big gap compared with professional custom-made shoes.

"Lin, I hope that what I say next will not make you doubt the friendship we have just established. Now, on behalf of the Puma company in Germany, I officially invite you, Mr. Lin Yi, to become the global spokesperson for Puma." Although he was talking about business, Bolt was still smiling, not that he was not serious, but that he was serious and happy.

"Hey, buddy, I really like your gift, it's really great, but you know, my business contract needs to be discussed by my agent and the team before it can be finalized. Of course, I have a veto right, and I can be arbitrary when necessary." Lin Yi said very honestly.

"Yes, yes, me too, you know, some agents are vampires, they only look at money. Of course I love money too." After finishing speaking, Bolt laughed.

"No, no, no, my agent is excellent, I trust him 100%, I believe in the sincerity of you and Puma, but I have to make a decision with the agent and the team, so sorry, I can't answer you now."

"It doesn't matter, I brought you this gift today to connect you with Puma. They think that letting you experience the product shows their sincerity, rather than looking for your agent."

"Yes, I feel their sincerity. No matter what, I thank them, and thank you."

"Lin, I don't know how fast if you put on professional running shoes on the track, I don't know if I can win you on the grass, but I really want to play with you. But you know, people like us can not run casually, which is great disrespect for the sponsors. But if you are also a spokesperson for Puma, it will be excellent advertising. Creative. "For the first time today, Bolt didn't spoke with a smile, and seemed to run with Lin Yi the most important thing today.

"Lin, do you know Puma? They are indeed not as good as Adidas and Nike, but this is only in terms of business. If you talk about the comparison of products, believe me, Puma is not behind at all, otherwise I would not be the number one in the world.

"Well, Usain, I think you have successfully aroused my interest. I promise that I will seriously consider Puma's offer. And to be honest, I also want to see how fast you are and whether you can knock down my jersey." Lin Yi began to use his bragging skills.

"Hey, how do you say that sentence? By the way, it's called 'Bolt's speed in front of you', right? Hahaha..." Both of them are cowhide kings, laughing and laughing like friends who have known each other for a long time.

The two talked about their opinions on sports and diet and sharing of running skills, and they never talked about endorsement again.Two hours later, Lin Yi took Bolt to the room to take out a pottery Monkey King doll with Chinese characteristics, and gave it to Bolt as a gift, which made Bolt very happy.These gifts are prepared by Ji Dong for Everton's new teammates.

When parting, Bolt said that he would cheer for his home country Jamaica in tomorrow's game, but he would applaud if Lin Yi scored a goal.Lin Yi also said that if he scored a goal, he would pay tribute to him.

Bolt stayed in the top-floor presidential suite funded and arranged by Puma this time, so Lin Yi just sent him to the elevator door.Bolt walked into the elevator and said to Ji Dong outside: "Come to Puma! Let's have a good race and let the world see what speed is!"

When Bolt said this, there was no thunder in the sky like in the anime, and there was no wind blowing his hair or the hem of his clothes to show the protagonist's agitated emotions at this time, but Ji Dong was still a little excited in his heart. If possible, he is also looking forward to it!Is it the limit speed of normal human beings, or is it faster for me, an evolutionary.

Ji Dong didn't answer Bolt, but just gave Bolt a thumbs up and showed his big white teeth!

The elevator door closed slowly, and two bolts of lightning were about to move inside and outside the door!

　Manchester United is playing like this against small teams now. I never thought that Mourinho can't do it either?Hey, how many people buy sports lottery football, don't buy Manchester United during this time.Ask for recommendation tickets and favorites!
