Goldfinger is a bit strange
Chapter 849: Loud thunder, little rain (1/2)
Since Liu Qingshan came to Milan, there has never been a lack of reporters around him.
The reporters also understood: this young man from China is simply a news-making machine, and it is right to follow him.
Look, Liu Qingshan created another piece of news in the Cameroon team's hotel:
He hired Roger Milla, the oldest striker in this World Cup, to endorse his company's products with an advertising fee of one million US dollars.
Not only that, he also sponsored the entire team with two million US dollars.
So soon, Liu Qingshan was labeled with a new label: stupid and rich.
As a result, many people gradually began to pay attention to: What products does Mr. Mountain's company produce?
There are also people with discerning eyes who see the tricks in it: at least from the marketing point of view, Liu Qingshan is successful.
Soon, reporters dug out the inside story: Mr. Mountain's product turned out to be a mobile phone.
The news was spread from the West German team. According to reporters, Liu Qingshan gave all members of the team, including the coaching staff, a mobile phone, that is, a cell phone. .
Then, a more shocking news broke out: Liu Qingshan sponsored 10 million marks to the West German football team.
And there are pictures to prove the truth. In the photos published in the newspaper, we can see:
Liu Qingshan and head coach Beckenbauer shook hands cordially. In front of them was a huge check with a clear number of 10 million.
This time, Liu Qingshan's reputation as a fool with a lot of money was confirmed, and he became the number one victim of this World Cup.
The other teams participating in the finals were jealous: Why didn't this God of Wealth come to our team?
In the end, there was really a team that waited for Liu Qingshan to come, and that was the host team.
The players were just a little disappointed, because Mr. Mountain only gave them a mobile phone.
Although this mobile phone was very small and pleasing, it was worth only a few thousand yuan at most, and of course it would not be taken seriously by these players.
Just when he was disappointed, Liu Qingshan came to a short player and said, "Hello, Mr. Schillaci, I would like to ask you to endorse the Bluebird mobile phone, is that okay?"
Schillaci was a little confused: How could such a good thing that fell from the sky fall on my head?
He heard that Mr. Mountain offered a one million US dollar endorsement fee to an old striker in Cameroon.
And he was just an unknown player. At that time, coach Vicini had selected 21 players from the 22-man roster for the World Cup.
The last one, the head coach filled in Schillaci's name as a substitute striker.
Before that, Schillaci had only played one game for the national team. He was short and ugly. He couldn't imagine how Mr. Mountain could find him?
Is it really as the legend says: this person is stupid and rich?
Liu Qingshan certainly knew that the ugly little man in front of him was the top scorer of this World Cup, scoring six goals.
When Liu Qingshan offered a one million dollar endorsement fee, Schillaci agreed very happily.
This also made other friends very envious.
After Liu Qingshan finished talking with Schillaci, he suddenly felt a hot gaze. He turned his head and saw a young man staring at him.
Isn't this Roberto Baggio, the young melancholy prince.
It must be said that Baggio is really handsome, with a facial contour like a sculpture, coupled with charming eyes, no wonder he can win the hearts of thousands of female fans.
Liu Qingshan walked up and patted the other party on the shoulder:
"I am also optimistic about you. In the future, we will choose you as the spokesperson for our Bluebird mobile phone in Europe. You can sign a ten-year contract directly."
If you sign now, the price will of course be cheaper, because Baggio also became famous in this World Cup.
Roberto was overjoyed and nodded in agreement. This must be a big contract.
Liu Qingshan only ran these three teams in total and basically completed his layout.
Next, it was time to make arrangements with the gambling companies.
This was not suitable for him to personally take the lead, so he placed bets in the identities of Lu Fang, Lu Liang and Wu Tong.
There were all kinds of bets on the World Cup. Later, someone bet on whether the buck-toothed Su would bite people during the game.
In the end, he really won, and the prize money increased by more than 600 times.
The data of the gambling companies were all calculated with the most precision, and the odds were not high. For example, the West German team was the favorite to win the championship. Even if you bet on the championship, you would not get much profit.
It would be better to bet on the unpopular games, such as the dark horse Cameroon team.
There were also some games that Liu Qingshan was impressed by, and he remembered the final scores and placed bets on them.
For example, betting on the semi-finals and the quarter-finals had a relatively high return ratio.
Anyway, the more than 10 million US dollars in royalties that Victor paid to Liu Qingshan were all betted by him.
Such a huge amount of bets, of course, also attracted the attention of the gambling companies, because the corresponding odds fluctuated.
Such behavior also did not escape the attention of the powerful reporters, and some newspapers have begun to report on it.
In particular, one reporter paid a large sum of money to bribe the internal staff of the gambling company and obtained accurate information.
So a shocking news appeared in the newspaper: Mr. Mountain spent tens of millions of dollars!
After this news came out, it completely set off this World Cup. The heat was rising even before the game started.
As the saying goes, when you are famous, you will have troubles. Liu Qingshan will soon be in trouble.
Mr. Pele, the big-mouthed football king, certainly could not tolerate the limelight being stolen by an Asian, so he publicly stated in an interview:
Mr. Mountain does not understand football at all, and Mr. Mountain's investment is just a joke in the end.
Liu Qingshan was worried about not finding an opponent, so he started to fight with the football king and laughed at Pele's bad mouth.
The gods fought, and the reporters were happy and busy reporting on both sides to attract enough attention.
Pele had already achieved success and fame, so he naturally did not accept it, so he proposed a bet to Liu Qingshan.
Liu Qingshan was very happy and told the reporter: "So far, I have never lost a bet. No matter what I bet, I will accompany you to the end."
The football king did not know how powerful he was, and in excitement, he made a bet with Liu Qingshan.
Such bets between celebrities are just a dispute of wills. Of course, money cannot be gambled, which is too vulgar.
After careful consideration, the football king finally came up with a good idea and told reporters that he was willing to take out three sets of commemorative jerseys that he had participated in three World Cups and won the championship to bet with Mr. Mountain.
If he loses, he will personally present these three sets of commemorative jerseys to Mr. Mountain in public.
You know, in today's world, only one person has won the World Cup three times, which shows how precious these three sets of jerseys are.
By doing this, Pele was also showing off to Liu Qingshan: Can you take out something comparable to it?
Liu Qingshan was also unambiguous and told the media: "If I lose the bet to Mr. Pele, then I will pay him 10 million US dollars a year to hire Mr. Pele to endorse my Bluebird mobile phone."
"If I win, then this amount will become one US dollar."
One US dollar to hire the football king as a spokesperson, who are you looking down on?
Pele was furious and secretly determined to win the bet.
This gimmick also made the reporters happy, and they began to report it with exaggeration.
Even many people were waiting to see the joke of the football king: one dollar for endorsement, just thinking about it makes people look forward to it.
As for the content of the bet between the two parties, it was also very simple: Pele believed that the Brazilian team would definitely enter the quarterfinals, while Liu Qingshan disagreed, so the bet was established.
Public opinion also generally believed that the football king had a higher chance of winning. After all, it was the Brazilian team. No matter which World Cup, they were the favorites to win. If they couldn't even enter the quarterfinals, it would be a bit too embarrassing.
If it is purely from a business perspective, Liu Qingshan has achieved great success.
Because the Bluebird mobile phone has successfully entered people's field of vision.
Especially the small size and the appearance full of technology have made people love it.
The only worry now is the quality problem.
Most people don't believe that China, which is backward in technology, can also produce such a high-end product as a mobile phone.
So although there was a lot of noise, the public's willingness to buy was not strong.
To describe it in one sentence: it was just thunder and rain.
As the opening ceremony approached, Bluebird's advertisements were also everywhere.
Whether you buy it or not, you will be bombarded with visuals.
The most representative picture in the print advertisement is Uncle Milla, holding a Bluebird phone and making a call.
There was also a subtitle next to it: "Hey, I scored again, how is your side?"
And the person he was talking to was Schillaci, who was also holding a Bluebird phone on the other side.
There was also a text: "I scored a goal too!"
This advertisement was also ridiculed by the media: You are so rich, can't you find a famous star to endorse it?
There was also an unscrupulous tabloid that modified the advertisement and replaced it with Pele's head portrait, holding a Bluebird phone and making a call, and wrote the content of the call next to it:
Sorry, I made another 10 million.
With Pele's somewhat mean smile, this picture was actually quoted by many newspapers and became a topic of conversation for the general public.
Liu Qingshan has always been calm: I will just watch your performance quietly to see who can laugh the last.
Presumably, when Schillaci becomes the top scorer, as the West German team wins the championship, and as old Milla becomes the "Uncle Milla" admired by everyone...
These miracles will eventually make all Liu Qingshan's efforts get the most generous rewards.
However, after a referee also jumped out and started a fight with Liu Qingshan, Liu Qingshan finally got a little angry.
This morning, Liu Qingshan and his friends were having breakfast. While enjoying breakfast, Liu Qingshan was flipping through the newspaper and occasionally chuckled happily.
As he laughed, the smile on Liu Qingshan's face gradually faded, his brows wrinkled, and finally, he slapped the newspaper on the table.
"Sanfeng, what's wrong?"
Wu Tong rarely saw Liu Qingshan angry, and he was a little surprised.
"Why did this damn guy come out to disgust people again?" Liu Qingshan pointed to a piece of news in the newspaper.
It was a referee named Frederickson, who was also refereeing this World Cup. He actually slandered him in the newspaper.
And the slander was not against Liu Qingshan himself, but the country he represented.
This guy actually shouted: A country that is not even qualified to enter the World Cup finals is not qualified to talk about football. Mr. Mountain should just shut up. He is a layman.
This is what Liu Qingshan can't stand. These days, there have been too many sarcastic comments about him in the newspapers, and Liu Qingshan just treats it as a joke.
But now this situation has risen to the dignity of the country, and Liu Qingshan can't help but get angry.
Liu Qingshan really knows something about this referee named Frederickson, because this is also a controversial event in the history of the World Cup.
The level of this referee is unquestionable, but this guy has a problem with his thinking and hates the entire red camp.
So in terms of the scale of the referee, this guy has double standards.
In the 1986 World Cup, this guy ignored the two offsides of the Belgian team when he was in charge of the match between Belgium and the Soviet Union.
This World Cup is even worse. In the match between Argentina and the Soviet Union, he actually ignored the handball block of the old horse.
Liu Qingshan certainly won't be polite to this kind of stuff. He decided to discipline this guy and make him quit the refereeing ranks forever.
So after breakfast, Liu Qingshan went out for a walk, and a large group of reporters followed him back.
Liu Qingshan sat there, just like he was holding a press conference. These days, this kind of grand occasion is basically the case.
However, the sharp reporters could feel that Mr. Mountain was not as cheerful as usual today, but had a serious face.
Some reporters who had read the newspaper had roughly guessed the reason and were waiting for the show to begin.
"Everyone, I am very angry today, and this anger comes from Frederickson." Liu Qingshan fired directly:
"As a referee, he is not qualified at all, because the whistle in his mouth is like a crow's feather, which is black. This is not fair!"
The reporters were happy: those who watch the fun are the most willing to make trouble.
So a new round of verbal battles started again, and naturally the reporters' contributions were indispensable. They had to fan the flames.
Finally, Liu Qingshan made another big move: "I want to bet with Frederickson. If I lose, I will give him 10 million US dollars."
"If I win, there is only one request. Frederickson must never pick up the referee's whistle again!"
Friederickson readily accepted this good thing, so another bet worth 10 million was established.
The content of the bet is very simple: as long as Frederickson is not questioned in the game he officiates, it will be considered that Frederickson wins.
This time, Liu Qingshan really didn't want to make eyeballs. He just hated this guy and told this black whistle to get out forever.
But the consequence of doing so was that Liu Qingshan completely became the most watched person in Milan.
In this noisy and chaotic situation, the curtain of the World Cup finally slowly opened.
March, early spring.

The gloomy sky was gray and black, revealing a heavy depression, as if someone had splashed ink on rice paper, and the ink soaked the sky and smudged the clouds.

The earth was hazy, and there was a ruined city, silent and lifeless in the dim red blood rain.
The city was in ruins, everything was withered, collapsed houses could be seen everywhere, and blue-black corpses and pieces of meat were seen everywhere, like broken autumn leaves, silently withering.
The streets that were bustling in the past are now bleak.
The sandy road that was once crowded with people is no longer noisy at this moment.
Only blood mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper remained, unable to distinguish one from the other, shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck in the mud, full of sadness, with only an abandoned rabbit doll hanging on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff had long been soaked into wet red, full of eerie weirdness.
The turbid eyes seemed to have some resentment, looking alone at the mottled stones in front.
There, a figure was lying.
This was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, with tattered clothes, full of dirt, and a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
The boy squinted his eyes and did not move. The biting cold penetrated his shabby coat from all directions, swept through his whole body, and gradually took away his body temperature.

Following his gaze, a skinny vulture was gnawing on the rotten corpse of a wild dog about 70 feet away from him, and occasionally vigilantly observed the surroundings.
It seemed that in this dangerous ruin, it would instantly take off at the slightest movement.
