Wang Ai continued to count with his fingers: "After that, he was first in the 01 season, second in the 02 season, first in the 03 season and 04 season, but who won the Golden Globe Award in these years?
What about? Ronaldo, Nedvěd, Shevchenko, Ronaldinho. Who is the World Footballer of the Year? Ronaldo, Zidane, Ronaldinho, Ronaldinho. From a purely shooter perspective, Henry is no better than the older Ronaldo
Not much worse, not even worse than Shevchenko. Arsenal even set an unbeaten record in the 2003 season. However, none of these helped him win two awards. Why? His popularity outside the stadium is not enough! He will definitely suffer when voting.
Even the reporters of the Golden Globe Awards will consider when voting, who should they vote for? In order to expand the influence of football, should they vote for the aliens that everyone knows, the Ukrainian nuclear warhead, the Iron Man, or a very powerful player?
Henry, who is strong but has a poor reputation? Or how to maintain the authority of the two awards? That must be to sacrifice a certain degree of professionalism and move closer to the public. For example, in a country with a low level of football development, the head coach and the national team
The captain doesn't have the chance to watch many games at all. They only read European newspapers and TV. They will subconsciously think that the well-known one is the best. If a less well-known one is selected, they will have doubts. On the contrary, the most famous one is selected in their mind.
If they are awesome, they will slap their thighs and say, 'It's exactly what I thought! I'm so awesome!'"
When Wang Ai said he was tired and wanted to drink water, Xu Qinglian frowned and thought: "I came to the UK because of you, so it's not that I don't care about football at all, but I didn't expect there to be such complicated things here.
.”
Wang Ai shook his head: "The most basic logic is that when FIFA awards the World Player of the Year and the French "L'Equipe" awards the Ballon d'Or, what is the first task? It is not fairness, objectivity, and authority, but that the award itself can maintain the
The first priority is to go down and expand the influence and ensure one's own survival. The evaluation criteria of fairness, objectivity, and authority are only means to maintain it, not the purpose. As I just said, selecting a person with high reputation and great social influence
Compared with one that is more professional but less well-known, the former is more conducive to awards, awards and the interests of awarding organizations. Relatively speaking, the true opinions of real professional organizations, or the coaches of the five major leagues, are too niche and have great influence.
Small. And in the era of commercial football, influence is still money. The winning of the two awards is directly linked to the commercial income of individuals and clubs. Therefore, a player’s true competitive strength can only be considered from his transfer fee, which has to be removed.
after his commercial value."
"But I heard that Henry's annual income is not low?" Xu Qinglian said doubtfully: "I remember reading an article these days, saying that his annual income is a little less than yours, but not much less."
Wang Ai shook his head: "It is true that Henry has a lot of advertising revenue, but it does not mean that his influence is very great. There is a problem of market scope. There are many professional fans in Europe, and they all know Henry and can buy Henry's account.
However, more people are not professional fans, and their impression of Henry is much weaker. The two awards are not just for professional fans, but also bear the very important task of turning non-professional fans into professional fans. The selection results of the two awards
, professional fans will always say it is unfair, but non-professional fans often agree. Therefore, Henry's influence among professional fans and the level of advertising revenue are not equal to the selection criteria for the two awards. What's more, outside of Europe,
The number of fans is not large, and the news radiated from Europe focuses more on off-field than on-field. So if you look at Beckham, who is No. 1 in the income list, he plays football well and captures professional fans. There is always something going on outside the field.
, and captured the non-professional fans. Of course, he also had some fun, and what he did was not very serious in the eyes of many people, so he didn’t win the two grand prizes.”
This time, Xu Qinglian was silent for a while before gathering her thoughts and said: "In other words, Henry agreed after seeing the additional publicity opportunity you provided? Well, after all, this kind of public challenge is not suitable even for ordinary people.
It's very attractive, even I was attracted, it's really good for winning two big prizes... Well, don't kiss me, it will make you drool all over it."
Xu Qinglian wiped her face and said angrily: "What if Henry didn't react the first time he received the news of your challenge? What if he subconsciously refused? Then it would be too late for him to think about it later, right? I found that he cooperated
Every step of the way is very good, eh... aren't you?"
Speaking of this, Xu Qinglian opened her eyes wide, looked at Wang Ai, and pointed at Wang Ai: "You, you..."
"Hahahaha!" Wang Ai laughed and stood up, bent down, gave Xu Qinglian a princess hug, and spun around in circles several times: "That's right! This matter was planned by Henry and I. It was the two of us.
It was agreed upon first! Hahaha! You didn’t expect it, hahahaha!”
Xu Qinglian was furious: "You, thank you for what you just said so nicely. You obviously communicated with me first. You, you, you lied to me for so long. There is something wrong with you! Why did you lie to me for so long? What did you say?
More, you, you..."
"Who lied to you?" Wang Ai put down Xu Qinglian and pulled her to sit at the desk again: "What I just said is true."
"You can't tell me clearly, you, you've been waiting for me! I'll beat you to death." Xu Qinglian snorted angrily.
"Oh, don't worry, I did figure this out under the pressure of the club and Ballack, but I also had to consider what to do if Henry got a headache and couldn't take the move, so I gave it to him.
Lapner called and secretly contacted Henry's agent. Henry's agreement and subsequent cooperation were indeed because we had communicated in advance, but without the reasons I just mentioned, would Henry have agreed?
"
"Then what if he loses? Wouldn't that be an even bigger loss?"
"What if I lose? Then do I also lose?" Wang Ai asked back, pinching Xu Qinglian's cheek: "That's not the way it is calculated. There is only one Golden Boot every year, and winning or losing is normal. But this way
Our influence has increased. Both of us can briefly be above all the Premier League stars in the past two months. In other words, if he doesn't agree, he may lose, but if he agrees, there will be extra points if he loses.
Why didn't he agree to make a fortune?"
Xu Qinglian calmed down and heard Wang Ai continue: "He is really stubborn and refuses to agree to anything, so what? Can't I challenge others? Other people on the scorer list, such as Ruud van Nistelrooy, Da
I can challenge Lembent, Roy Keane, and even Rooney, and someone will always agree. Although it’s a little worse than Henry, I can always do it, but what about Henry then?”
When Wang Ai talked about this, he pointed at the scene of Henry clamoring for the gold medal and said: "So not only did he agree, he also took the initiative to add drama to himself! I assure you, the specific answer is all designed by him. I
But we didn’t teach him to hang up the gold medal in advance and shout about it, that is, everyone is just for hype, otherwise it will all be revealed.”
