After quitting sports, I became a chef

?

Su Bai really didn't expect that someone would invite him.

"...On the field, all the athletes in the team are fighting hard. My coach doesn't even have to follow the scene. No one knows me when they invite me."

Of course Su Bai knew that he had been interviewed and appeared in the variety show "Athletics Idol Training Camp" before, but he was not a player in the variety show, and as a coach, he didn't have a lot of appearances. Come to think of it, audiences definitely don't see him that much.

And after that variety show, he has been in the track and field team all the time. Whether it was the previous indoor competition or this time the Asian Championships, he did not go out with the team.

With his habit of staying in the track and field team every day like this, how many viewers will know him?What's the point of inviting him?

Liao Jie looked at Su Bai's bewildered look, smiled and shook his head: "You guy, you are young, you live like an old antique, you are less online, now the audience knows you Quite a lot."

"Uh..." Hearing this statement, Su Bai couldn't help being a little confused: "I stayed in the track and field team and didn't go out..."

Liao Jie directly smiled and took out his phone, clicked on a video, and handed it to Su Bai.

Unconsciously, Su Bai took the phone and took a look, only to realize that it was actually a video clip of every meal he cooked in the track and field idol training camp.

This is a refined version, which not only edits all the clips in the entire variety show, but also supplements some of the video content that the sports channel broadcast live on the national team.

From the beginning of the faint cooking smoke to the steaming dishes, when the director team of the variety show filmed these culinary parts, they may have already put out their life's aesthetic skills, almost every time he started the knife. Falling, and then to his fingertips across the ingredients, or he is cleaning and carving the ingredients with both hands.

The fog from the hot soup pot seems to be the best filter naturally. When the lens is slightly zoomed out to the middle ground, you can see a thin silhouette in the mist, taking the ingredients in hand seriously, carefully Cook a delicious meal.

This kind of video, even if you can't eat the delicious food in it, can still attract people to watch it again and again. In the end, you don't know whether you are watching the food or the people who make these food.

After Su Bai finished watching this video, he was still in a daze. He really didn't expect that when he was cooking in the show, he could be edited out of such a content in the end.

And just now Liao Jie showed him the video from the bullet screen site. During the video playback, Su Bai kept seeing all kinds of shameful bullet screens.

What [prpr, I can lick Coach Su's hand for 1 years! ! ! ], [Woo, why is Coach Su not a contestant? I also want to vote for Coach Su! 】,【Qvq Coach Su, you can put out a gourmet show, I want to eat...ah no, it’s okay to watch it! 】……

In addition to these things that barely caught the eye, there were many other things that Su Bai felt his ears burned after seeing them.

such as……

[Ah, ah, Coach Su, I want to give birth to a monkey for you! 】

[Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 】

Originally, Su Bai used to be a quiet and introverted character. At that time, he was in the track and field team of Province S, and his only friend was basically Qiu Wen.

Later, he became a coach, and his overly introverted personality gradually improved. Over the past year or so, Su Bai insisted on developing a "majestic" temperament for himself to train/teach athletes. Except for that bastard Qiu Wen, Few people dared to be presumptuous in front of him.

So, no matter before becoming a coach or after becoming a coach, except for Qiu Wen's obviously out-of-the-brained funny behavior, no one really said such naked/naked/to Su Bai in front of him. Explicit words.

Seeing these all of a sudden, Su Bai, who had always seemed calm and reliable for more than a year, became a little at a loss.

Ever since Su Bai joined the national team, Pei Jin'an and the people in the track and field management center thought it was quite normal whether he used all kinds of aggressive methods or all kinds of ruthless methods to educate the athletes in the track and field team. Only white can enter their eyes.

Therefore, in the eyes of Pei Jin'an and Liao Jie, Su Bai has always been a reliable image of young and mature.

At this moment, Su Bai's ears turned red and his face was still a bit dazed. Both Pei Jin'an and Liao Jie were stunned for a moment before suddenly laughing.

It wasn't until the two of them laughed that Su Bai covered his face with one hand, and shook his head in embarrassment.

"Nowadays netizens... are quite unrestrained."

Hearing this, Liao Jie smiled at Su Bai: "Where are you unrestrained? Aren't they all quite normal sayings? You go and ask that guy Qiu Wen to come. Seeing this, what can that guy say 'prpr' directly?" Lick it back."

?

Su Bai looked at Liao Jie with some doubts.

Seeing Su Bai's puzzled look, Liao Jie laughed at that moment: "Coach Xiao Su, you really should get on the Internet more. Those players in your team train every day, so they don't have less Internet access. Just Qiu That guy Wen, if he could have a meal with you, he would want to be on Weibo for ten days, you don’t know about this, do you?”

"Hey, I think your living habits are really no different from a little old man. The Weibo management staff of our field management center also said that before @你 on Weibo, I didn't see you forwarding and replying. However, I thought you were busy, so I didn't read much, but it turned out that you were really busy, but you really didn't log on this Weibo even once!"

This is true. Su Bai really doesn't have the habit of going on Weibo. Generally speaking, when contacting people, if there is something wrong, which one can't be contacted by WeChat, SMS, QQ, or phone?In addition to leading the team for training, he usually adjusts various training plans, review work, communicates with nutritionists, communicates with data groups, and now there are training lectures in preparation.

In addition to these things during the day, even when you fall asleep at night, there are systematic training courses. In addition, you have to look at the test data of those simulated athletes. In addition, there are two athletes, Su Qian and Clark, who are growing up from childhood. Data need to be observed .

After all these piles are piled up one by one, Su Bai has a feeling that he can't wait to break them into two halves in a minute and use them. He just feels that there is not enough time every day. How can he have time to browse Weibo online?

"I don't ask you to spend hours on the Internet like Qiu Wen and the others, but taking three to five minutes a day to check Weibo news and other things is considered appropriate."

It's not that Liao Jie doesn't know that Su Bai is busy, but in the age of Internet information, there are some Internet public opinion or Internet-related cooperation, as well as some Internet-related tasks issued by the general manager, even the coach can't let it go.

Su Bai rubbed his head with some headaches, then nodded. After a while, he remembered that Liao Jie said that Qiu Wen had time to spend several hours on the Internet every day...

Liao Jie is in charge of following up the public opinion of the athletes to prevent some word of mouth from collapsing. Su Bai guessed that Qiu Wen's online speech is probably the key monitoring part of Liao Jie's staff, otherwise he would not know that Qiu Wen is in How unrestrained (brainless) is the speech on the Internet?

Thinking of this, Su Bai ruthlessly added a wave of training to Qiu Wen in his heart-the child is full of energy, but he is idle.

After clearing up his mood, Su Bai finally looked at Liao Jie again: "Is it because of these cooking videos that I found my brand?"

Liao Jie smiled and nodded.

"Then... what brand are the people looking for me?" Su Bai looked at Liao Jie hesitantly, with some bad premonitions in his heart.

Sure enough, Liao Jie signaled him to continue scrolling down the plan, and then he saw two gourmet advertising plans, one of which was a well-known brand of kitchen appliances, and the other was an equally well-known domestic grain and oil brand .

……

…………

………………

Okay, the athletes in his team received advertisements for serious sportsman-related brands. He was a good track and field coach, and the invitations he received were kitchen appliances and cooking oil.

Those who know know that he is a track and field coach, those who don't know...

Su Bai didn't know for a while, if others didn't know his identity as a coach, seeing him filming these two advertisements, what kind of identity would be given to him in his heart.

"Well, I won't accept the advertisement, will I?"

Su Bai stared at the two advertisements in his hand, feeling that he really didn't need to accept these advertisements.

Liao Jie seems to have known Su Bai's character for a long time, and he was not surprised by Su Bai's subconscious refusal, but said to Su Bai directly: "Actually, there are quite a few brands that want to invite you, but your character, I don't know if I ask myself. I know a little bit, so I blocked some unreliable ones before, and I haven't come to you for the time being. The reason why these two brands are handed over to you is because the brand is reliable, and the other is mainly because The helmsmen of these two brands have some connections with our track and field program and have provided a lot of support to our track and field program in the past."

When Liao Jie said this, Su Bai straightened his body and opened the project in his hand.

past...

In the past, when track and field events were not as popular as they are now, Su Bai also heard his master occasionally talk about it, saying that it was not easy to get sponsorship for track and field events.

These two brands have been supporting track and field events in the past. As Su Bai, who has been growing up in the event and may have benefited more or less, the meanings of these two brands are different.

Without Liao Jie's further persuasion, Su Bai nodded, expressing his agreement to accept the invitation of these two brands.

After communicating these things, Su Bai left the office, but before he left, Pei Jinan asked him how the content of the lecture was prepared. Taking advantage of the fact that the athletes were about to enter the peak time of the outdoor season, the relevant lectures and training sessions of the coaches Work or something can also take this opportunity to officially start.

Regarding this inquiry, Su Bai naturally said that there is no problem at all.

After returning to the training ground, Su Bai called the players together, and first talked about the fact that the field management center signed an advertisement for the players, and said that there will be steering personnel to connect with each player in the future. If you are dissatisfied with the terms, you can also discuss.

Although Su Bai gave them a warning before leaving, and talked about the advertisement when he came back, the team members did not make any fuss about it. Everyone knew in their hearts that Su Bai's The beating was also for the improvement of their grades, and now they just said hello seriously, and then continued to train.

It should be said that these brand parties were far more anxious than the track and field team after sending out the invitation. After all, the Asian Championships have just ended, and the current enthusiasm for athletes is still at its peak.

If you can take this opportunity to promote a wave, it is the time when the advertising effect is the best.

What about after the Asian Championships?

Now is the peak period of competitions in various sports in the outdoor season, such as the World Athletics Challenge, the Diamond League, and a series of European training games.

The popularity of the Asian Championships can be so high, so after the players break out of the Asian range and enter the world-wide competition, as long as they have results, can the popularity be lower than it is now?

Not to mention the World Athletics Championships at the end of September and early October!

It will take time to send out invitations, sign the contract, complete a series of processes such as commercial filming, as well as commercial film editing, TV commercials, large-screen advertisements in shopping malls, and storefront advertisements.

If you don't hurry up, you will not only miss the peak of the Asian Championships, but if players like Zhang Ziyi and Cui Luoheng will directly qualify for the Tokyo Olympics in the following competitions, or in some international competitions Overwhelming black and white people to win a championship or something...

If their ad hadn't been launched at that time, wouldn't this be a waste of popularity?

Therefore, after confirming the athlete's consent, these brand parties all chased after Liao Jie, intending to urge Liao Jie to sign the brand promotion or endorsement contract for them immediately.

Unexpectedly, Liao Jie slashed them again in terms of brand endorsement time - this time, these brands gave athletes, including two brands to Su Bai, all of which were two-year contracts.

For some celebrity artists, it is very happy to be able to directly sign a two-year contract and cooperate with them for a long time. In comparison, there is a gap.

If ordinary people look at it, then signing a two-year contract can get long-term cooperation guarantee, which is really a good thing.

However, after these two-year contracts were handed over to Liao Jie, Liao Jie and Liao Jie's think tank team directly cut them into one-year contracts. Jay declined.

Field Management Center, Director's Office

Liao Jie sat quietly in Jiang Wentao's office, talking to Jiang Wentao while hiding: "Oh, these brand owners are all business-minded, and they just want to make more money and get more money."

On the side, Jiang Wentao also smiled when he heard what he said: "Okay, don't you also want to make more money?"

Hearing this, Liao Jie shook his head angrily: "Aren't I going to fight for more benefits for our team members?"

"These brands are very shrewd. Now in April and May, we signed a two-year contract. Now our track and field team is already very popular. Looking back, there will be the World Championships this year. It may be another peak at that time.

What about next year? In February, the World Athletics Indoor Championships was held in China, and it was a big hot spot. In April and May, the Olympics should start warming up. Looking back after the Olympics, if anyone in our team signs a contract It’s amazing for a player to get a medal in an upset at the Olympics. Taking advantage of the current cheap signing price, the direct contract will be used until the end of the Olympics. When the Olympic heat is over in 2 years, the contract will expire... ..."

Speaking of this, Liao Jie said angrily: "They are so beautiful! If we want to sign contracts with our players and cooperate well, then sign year after year. This year will be the price. Before next year's Olympics, we will directly share the players' results and bonus The coefficient is written in the contract, so that if our players get upset, they won't lose money!"

Jiang Wentao listened to Liao Jie's nagging, and smiled and drank tea from a teacup.

He and Liao Jie are old brothers and partners, and it has become a habit to listen to Liao Jie's angry words from time to time. The appearance of a good guy is absolutely gentle and gentle, so that the people on the brand side can't see the complaints in his heart at all.

Needless to say, in the past few years, the provincial track and field teams in some areas did not have enough funds, and Liao Jie contributed a lot in it, and helped some track and field teams find sponsors.

For many provincial teams, Liao Jie is like the God of Wealth.

When the two are together, in addition to complaining about the twists and turns of the businessmen on the brand side in the circle of interests, they also occasionally feel the changes in track and field events over the past year.

"Su Bai... this is really amazing."

When Liao Jie mentioned Su Bai, his face was full of admiration: "Our track and field team is lucky to be able to catch such a talent."

As the person in charge of the marketing and activities department, including communication with TV stations like the Sports Channel, and integrating information related to the Internet, the final content will be sorted out on his desk.

Since Su Bai entered the national team, Liao Jie can say that he watched Su Bai's name step by step, with a larger data base and more frequent appearances, appearing in front of his eyes.

At the beginning, most of Su Bai's practices caused discussions among track and field enthusiasts on the Internet. Later, the results of Su Bai leading the team, Su Bai's "Su's Prophecy" during the Asian Games, Su Bai brought out a whole A huge circle of cross-professional players...as well as his cooking skills, his popularity and attention in variety shows.

These information are actually turned into data and appear on his desk.

From Su Bai, to the 400-meter event he brought out, and to the athletes of various events he brought out, the circle of influence formed by the name Su Bai not only radiates into a huge range within the track and field team, but also on the Internet. It also formed a spectacle of discussion.

Liao Jie has personally seen it. After the Asian Championships on the Internet, there were many self-media articles dedicated to discussing Su Bai. grades?

Not only that, but also made an intuitive data fluctuation table of these people's past grades and the ups and downs of their grades over the years, and then compared their performance improvement after they came to Su Bai.

Although this topic is actually a cliché, as long as it is published, no one will really worry about it!

After all, this kind of living genius coach who seems to come out of a TV novel, anyone who sees it can't help but be amazed.

Coupled with that - [Shock!The biggest winner of the Asian Championships turned out to be him! ] and other titles, netizens and track and field fans on the Internet really prefer this.

Netizens on the Internet all know Su Bai's ability and importance, as for the field management center and the national team, they naturally know more about it.

About Su Bai and the results of the players he brought out, as well as various comprehensive analysis, the field management center and the leaders of the national team, it is really a hand.

For such a talent, anyway, it is a good offering, can help and will not hold back, can coax and will never make a bad face.

Fortunately, Su Bai himself is also a down-to-earth track and field person, and this recognition also relieved the field management center. Su Bai was worried that his team members would lose their minds because of fame and fortune. In fact, the field management center here Why is there no such worry about Su Bai?

Moreover, compared with the team members, a person like Su Bai can almost bring improved talents to most of the track and field team, which makes the track and field management center more anxious and irreplaceable.

As for the national team, Su Bai didn't know the evaluation and worries of the field management center for him. He was currently in the dormitory discussing the upcoming match schedule and his psychological condition with Cui Luoheng.

"As I said before, in the future, the team will basically not arrange domestic or Asian-level competitions for you. Unless there are specific competition tasks, your subsequent competitions will be mainly international competitions. "

Su Bai pointed to the race schedule in his hand, and told Cui Luoheng about the future race arrangement: "On May 5th, there will be an IAAF track and field challenge in Jamaica. There will be many 4-meter hurdles in this challenge. Talented players will be there, and you can feel the atmosphere of the world's top 110m hurdles in this competition."

When Cui Luoheng heard this, he nodded, but for some reason, he frowned again.

"What's the matter?" Su Bai looked up at him, and said, "Are you worried that you will be too nervous and not perform well?"

Cui Luoheng pursed his lips and said, "Xiaobai, can you accompany me to the competition then?"

Hearing this request, Su Bai shook his head with a smile, and then said seriously: "Ah Luo, you need to adjust to the psychological problem of being nervous and collapsing before the game. You know, there are so many players in the team. Individual schedules are different, destinations are different, and besides coaching, I have other coaching duties to deal with."

"Even if I can follow you to this competition, what about the future?"

"It's impossible for me to be by your side every game."

Su Bai really felt that Cui Luoheng was good at everything, but perhaps it was because the few games after he was promoted to the group had too much influence on him, and this issue of mental endurance really needed to be adjusted.

Cui Luoheng looked at Su Bai eagerly. He was a big boy with a height of 1.9 meters. Looking at Su Bai, he seemed to be very wronged.

"Then...can I call Xiaobai before the game?"

Looking at Cui Luoheng's pitiful and cautious appearance, Su Bai originally wanted Cui Luoheng to get rid of the habit of making phone calls before the game since discussing the schedule, but finally he didn't say it out loud.

Su Bai raised his hand, rubbed Cui Luoheng's head, smiled and nodded: "Yes."
