Chapter 75 Literacy

Soon some details of the contract were excavated and widely reported by the media. Together with the just-concluded Merseyside Derby News, Everton's chances of appearing in the newspaper have greatly increased in the past few days.

At the first time, China also learned about Li Yu's new contract. People have calculated an account for Li Yu. Now his monthly salary is more than 2 million RMB and 24 million yuan a year. This has not included all kinds of bonuses, endorsement fees, etc. Many media have listed the past and current players. Salary, Li Yu has steadily occupied the highest salary position of Huaxia players.

This is a domestic media without new ideas. What is the ranking of the football circle? The Sports Weekly took the lead in a list of athletes in all sports. Li Yu ranked third on this list, and the first place is Yao Ming, a basketball tycoon in the NBA. There is no way to ask for it. Life is about money, and Li Yu can't catch up with others for a while.

The second place is the flying man Liu Xiang. Li Yugang ranked third on the list, which is definitely a proud achievement, but he got the real money, and Li Yu didn't get the money. It was just an expected annual income.

No matter what the list is, people can clearly know that Li Yuyue became the middle class of the Premier League, and it only took him two months. In the next season, the vision and permission of Chinese fans will be higher.

The salary time is lively, and the media has not forgotten one thing at the beginning of the season. There is only one ball gap from the good play of licking chicken feet. The countdown is approaching. Whether it is the British media or the Chinese media, they have stirred up the event again, which is a good appetite for readers!

Enthusiastic Chinese fans even extended another unexpected topic from it. In any case, such players were permanently expelled from the national team. Soon, the issue of Li Yu's entry into the national team was once again widely discussed among the fans of Huaxia. It is full of righteous indignation on the Internet, but in fact The effect is not satisfactory. The blocking of the Chinese Football Association from beginning to end still has a certain effect. The hot discussion of fans can only be seen in some forums, and these topics cannot be seen at all in other media and mainstream websites.

With the deepening of the discussion, two fan camps have gradually formed. On the one hand, they support Li Yujin's national team to play for the country, and on the other hand, they do not support Li Yu to jump into the Chinese football circle.

Both sides have their own reasons, and no one can convince anyone. These people actually know that they are worried about salty radishes, and soon they will be over.

Chinese media has long reached a consensus that it can report Li Yu, but it is absolutely necessary to avoid problems about the national team. No one will mention it, and try not to give fans a chance to talk about the national team.

As Li Yu's fan group 'Men' Gang', he has also recently contacted Li Yu himself. Many domestic Li Yu has been mailed to the United Kingdom. Looking at all kinds of gifts, Li Yu is full of emotions. Chinese fans are so cute. There are everything in it. The thread hats knitted by fans are made according to Li Yu's image. The Q version of the clay doll is the most outrageous in a pile of gifts. I found two pairs of underwear, and I really can't deal with it.

Troubles belong to troubles. Fans must be grateful. In return, Li Yu promised them that every quarter, he would provide five autographed jerseys as a thank you, and let the 'Men's Gang' hold a series of activities regularly.

People are really afraid of being famous and afraid of being strong. As soon as they signed a new contract, Li Yu felt that all kinds of things were coming. As soon as the fans had finished dealing with it, the agent Wiltz's phone call came again. It must be an endorsement invitation. I don't know how many times Wiltz has asked in the past few days. Now it is the intensive period of the competition. Li Yu is still It's the old principle. We have to wait until the end of the season to talk about how much money we pay. Now is not the time to endorse the advertising.

Picking up the phone, Li Yu already seemed a little impatient, and her tone was a little angry. "How many times have I said it, and now I don't accept advertising endorsements!"

"This time it's not a general endorsement, but a player sponsorship!" Wiltz didn't care and said an important news.

"What is personal sponsorship?" Li Yu really didn't understand this problem, and immediately asked again.

"Sports manufacturers should select some influential athletes in various fields and implement a kind of endorsement similar buyout. Of course, if your popularity is high enough, they will specially design sports equipment for you and provide their brand's sports products in an all-round way, and you can't use sports equipment of other brands. If you are photographed by the media wearing sportswear of other brands, you will be fined for breach of contract!" Wilz said a lot about personal sponsorship. You should know that Everton's team has not been able to get such a contract so far, which is a great affirmation of the player's own strength and influence, so he is not tired of explaining to Li Yu.

"I've said a lot, but in fact, I'm still endorsing. This time it's a bit like a live advertisement!" Li Yu understands a little bit and has a lot of benefits, but he also understands that there will inevitably be restrictions on the benefits. It's better to say this aspect in advance. "It's still the same. If there are any advertisements, you have to wait until the season to shoot, and if you agree, you can sign the contract!"

"Oh, my God, you still have such a request. I really don't understand what you think. LEE is a big contract that any player has dreamed of for a long time!" Wiltz said for a long time that he didn't say anything, and the conditions remained unchanged. He knew that the advertisement in Li Yu's condition was not only a requirement for shooting, but also a requirement not to attend the event, not to advertise, etc. Why is this boy so stubborn?

"Nedless to say, I know, but I still have to do something else on the basis of ensuring my training and games. There is no winter break in the Premier League, so I'm sorry, my agent, I can only do something else at the end of the season!" Li Yu has made it very clear that this is the requirement.

"Do you not care what brand it is?" Wiltz really has nothing to do with Li Yu. He has to talk to others by himself, but he still needs to listen to the player's own wishes. Fortunately, there is a tendency in the process of negotiation.

"What brands can be, that is, just those two. If it's not Adidas, it's Nike. It's up to you!" Li Yu doesn't care. Whether it is the national team or the players themselves, these two companies are basically competing for sponsorship in the football world. Other brands are really not very competitive for these two companies.

Adidas is the previous hegemon in the football field, and Nike has also recently increased its investment in this field, frequently giving big contracts to grab resources in this regard. There are so many good teams and top players in the world. Now a newcomer has emerged in such a huge market in China. With unparalleled influence, they found Wiltz at the first time and expressed their willingness to sponsor.

Adidas gave a three-year contract of 500W euros, while Nike gave a more competitive contract than Adidas, three-year 800W euros. However, Adidas's contract requirements are relatively relaxed, while Nike's requirements are a little more, just a little. In Wiltz's opinion, he must go to China twice a year for publicity. It's really nothing, but there are really some problems when I meet Li Yu, a single-minded comrade.

The situation was explained on the phone. As Wiltz expected, Li Yu would rather ask for less money and would not change the general principle. If Nike can agree to focus the time of the activity on the end of the league, Li Yu will also nod. These things need to be negotiated by Wiltz.

Hanging up the phone, Li Yu is really rare to be quiet. In the past few days, as long as she starts up, it is either the media inviting an exclusive interview to make a program, or all kinds of endorsement requirements. Li Yu is annoyed. She has tried to simplify the factors outside the venue, but there is still some interference. "It seems that I will buy another mobile phone tomorrow, specially It's used as a personal phone!"

As soon as I finished thinking about things in my mind, the phone rang again. Looking at the caller ID, it was not someone else's teammate, Espanyol Arteta, and the content of the phone call was also about the Everton team. The grouping of the League Cup was finally revealed. Everton was divided into Group A, namely Everton in the Premier League and Bundesliga Nuremberg. , Russian Premier League St. Petersburg Zenit, Dutch Alkmaar, Greek Super Larissa.

In the next two months, each team in the group will play against other teams once. Each team will have two home games and two away games. The home and away teams will be decided by drawing lots.

The Spaniard who knew that Li Yu would not pay attention to these problems specially called to remind Li Yu that the Everton team knew that Li Yu was definitely a fool. In addition to the Italian team and the team in the Premier League now, Li Yu, the other league teams, really didn't know much, especially with Hal in Ukraine last time. When Coff Goldman played the game, he didn't know that the player was Ukrainian. This was nothing. Even the team was wrong. It was the Donetsk miner who talked to him. He was a metalworker. The other players of the two teams in the whole channel felt really embarrassed. The Everton player didn't know for a long time. Who is the opponent today?

Ukrainian players were told by Li Yu without playing. They had to prove themselves and let the Everton players know each other. After the two rounds of the game, the Everton players summed up why it was so difficult to play in the two League Cup games. They unanimously thought of what Li Yu had done in the channel, and literacy before the game became a must. The homework needed, and this task was handed over to Arteta, who Li Yu usually rubbed the car.

The opponent in the first game is the home game against Larissa on the 25th. Today's call is to let Li Yu know. Don't talk nonsense with other players if you don't know anything!

Larissa was the tenth place in the Greek League last season, and their qualification for the League Cup was obtained by their championship performance in the Greek Cup. They defeated the traditional Greek giant Panasinaikos in the final and successfully qualified for a UEFA Cup.

To be able to reach the group stage, their goal has actually been achieved. They can win a lot of income by playing four more games. As for the top three in the group, it is estimated that they have never even thought about it. The above has made Larissa an absolutely recognized bottom seed team in Group A.
