Chapter 288 The favored defending champion (thanks to the gods!)
Chang Sheng didn’t tell anyone about this ambition in his heart, not even his wife Avril and his parents.
Therefore, the media racked their brains and tried every means, but they were unable to find out what the new record Chang Sheng was going to set.
They stayed on Chang Sheng's personal official website day and night, hoping to detect some clues and clues from Chang Sheng's usual messages.
They went to ask people around Chang Sheng. They even paid people inside the Lazio club to ask for information.
But it's a pity that everyone's answer is: "Chang's new record? I don't know, I have never heard him say it before..."
Neither the coaches nor the players, nor even the gatekeepers at the training base, know.
Some of these people came curiously and asked Chang Sheng what the new record he wanted to set was.
Facing these people, Chang Sheng always gave the same answer. He smiled and said: "Buddha said, don't say it."
Some people don’t understand: “What do you mean?”
"I just can't say it."
"Can't even tell us?"
Chang Sheng nodded.
So everyone was speechless. Originally, they wanted to play the emotional card, but in the end, Chang Sheng refused to recognize his relatives.
Others want to provoke: "Actually, you don't have any ideas at all, do you? The so-called setting a new record is just something you said casually to tease the media, right?"
Chang Sheng also smiled mysteriously.
No explanation, everyone will know it by then.
As a result, in the end, no one knew what Chang Sheng meant by "creating a new record."
As a result, such an opinion gradually formed in the media.
That means Chang Sheng is just trying to scare people. In fact, he has no plan to "set a new record" at all.
Everyone was manipulated by him.
But what's the point of him teasing everyone like this? There's no point in it at all.
Maybe it was meaningless in the first place. It was simply because he was so full that he had nothing to do...
I pity the reporters and editors who have been tossing this topic for several days. They were fooled around, but in the end they were all in vain!
A group of reporters and editors privately scolded Chang Sheng for being boring, shameless and immoral.
Although Chang Sheng has always been boring, shameless and unscrupulous, the media really wronged him this time...
※※※
Chang Sheng kept the media all over Italy busy for several days with just one thoughtless sentence, and became the focus of the media for several days in a row.
This can’t help but impress Chang Sheng’s current influence.
In Rome, this influence was also presented in the most intuitive way.
On the streets of Rome, many advertising posters of Chinese companies and brands began to appear, and these advertising posters belong to different Chinese companies. But they have one thing in common, that is, the protagonists in the advertisements are all the same, and they are all victorious!
Changsheng with different looks and temperament!
Some Italian media exclaimed that this was a comprehensive invasion of the Chinese economy.
Chang Sheng is naturally the vanguard in this.
Chinese companies have leveraged the golden name of Changsheng to enter the European market and frequently appear in front of Italian consumers.
And winning often brings fame and fortune.
Now that he has advertising endorsement fees to earn, these ads in turn promote himself.
Chang Sheng has now become a "phenomenon". He is the most well-known Chinese in Italy. Italians may not know who the Chinese president is, but they cannot help but know who Chang Sheng is.
After leading Lazio to win the first Triple Crown in Italian football history, the Rome city government awarded him the title of Honorary Citizen of Rome.
This honorary title signifies Victory's status in the hearts of Italians.
No matter how much you hate him, you can't deny his achievements.
And his status is the accumulation of these achievements.
The media criticized him and said he was a controversial figure. But there is no denying that the ratings and sales of these media are driven by hype and winning-related topics.
Roma fans hate Chang Sheng and often curse him. But in private, they also secretly imagine that if the old Sensi had not driven Chang Sheng away, they would now monopolize Serie A. A team that has won two Champions League titles should
It's Rome...
Fans of other teams, such as Juventus, AC Milan, and Inter Milan, will also be dissatisfied with Chang Sheng. But they have also expressed it openly and secretly. They hope that the club can do more to bring Chang Sheng to the team that coaches them.
When Chang Sheng was their enemy, they wished that Chang Sheng would die. But they all hoped that Chang Sheng would be on the same side as them...

Before the next Champions League group match, Lazio has one more league game. In the fifth round of the league, it faces Chievo away from home.
Because there is a Champions League group match against Werder Bremen at home in three days, Lazio has made a large rotation for this game.
But even so, Lazio's rotation still defeated Chievo 1:0 in the away game, maintaining a complete victory in the new season.
After the game, Chievo head coach Pioli said helplessly: "We have nothing to do when we encounter Lazio. They are too strong, they are simply not our team on earth, and there is nothing we can do...Although they have made extensive rotations,
But there’s nothing we can do…”
At the post-match press conference, the head coach kept repeating the phrase "we have no choice".
Now is the Internet age. As long as something is online, it will spread very quickly.
Someone posted this video of his post-match press conference on the Internet.
Someone used some stupid trick to re-edit the video. In the video, Pioli kept repeating "We have no way" to the rhythm of the music.
Don't tell me, it really has a bit of rap music.
As a result, this video became popular all of a sudden, and more people joined in to parody and adapt Pioli's post-match press conference video.
"We have no choice" has also become a popular phrase on the Italian Internet and has been quoted by many people.
For example, the guests on a TV political commentary program quoted this sentence to express their anger at the inefficiency of the government. "We have no way. Yes, of course we have no way. If we had the way, we would have solved this matter long ago, right?"
?”
There are also people who have adapted the song "We Can't Help It" and it has even made it into the top ten of the best-selling songs list on the Internet...
Pioli didn't expect that his catchphrase at the post-match press conference would unexpectedly make him famous on the Internet.
He was also helpless about this: "What can I say? I have no choice..."
※※※
The one who is popular in this matter is Pioli, and it has little to do with Chang Sheng.
Three days later, the winning team welcomed Werder Bremen at home.
This is the first Champions League home game of the season at Rome's Stadio Olimpico.
The seats were also packed.
Lotito's heart was bleeding when he saw this scene on the rostrum.
Fortunately, the design drawings of the new stadium have been released, and the groundbreaking is not far away.
This time, China Automobile has gained a lot of benefits for Lotito. He successfully obtained Chinese capital to sponsor the new stadium. Of course, the price paid was to transfer 15% of his equity to the Chinese consortium.
Lotito is a man who knows how to do business, and he naturally makes choices. Giving up 15% of the equity in exchange for the new stadium and surrounding commercial and residential development, that is where the bulk of the money will be made...
…
Now we just have to wait for the design drawings to be approved and the new stadium will officially break ground.
When Lotito thought that this day was not far away, he trembled with excitement.

In the packed Olimpico Stadium in Rome, Lazio was also in good form.
The players especially like the feeling of a full stadium. Playing in this atmosphere, they feel that they are in good condition.
Lazio, who is in good form, won an unquestionable victory at their home court!
4:0!
Lazio beat Werder Bremen.
The third place in the Bundesliga last season was simply vulnerable to the Serie A champions!
In two Champions League group matches, Lazio scored seven goals and didn't concede a single goal!
This performance made the whole of Europe focus on them.
"Defending champion Lazio has used two group matches to prove that they are still a strong contender for the Champions League title. As everyone said after the group was drawn, no team in this group can prevent Lazio from ranking first in the group.
To qualify from the group... Lazio proved it."
"The winning team is in very good condition. This is really incredible. Generally speaking, after winning the Triple Crown, the team will have a trough in form because the players will lack motivation... But look at Lazio,
There is no such situation at all! I admire Chang very much because I don’t know how he did it..."
"4:0! Lazio mercilessly killed Werder Bremen in their own goal. But we cannot call this a victory of Italian football against German football. You must know that in this game, Lazio has three players in the starting lineup.
German players, they were important contributors to Lazio’s 4:0 victory..."
Media from all over the world rushed to report and comment on this game.
European bookmakers have also adjusted their odds.
Currently, defending champion Lazio has the best odds of winning.
If you buy them to win, the lottery players will not make much money.
But even so, according to the internal statistics of the gaming company, there are still many lottery players who buy Lazio to successfully defend the title.
They would rather make less money, but they will definitely make a profit without losing money...
Lottery players voted with their feet in favor of Lazio, who always wins.
The distant Chinese media are naturally paying more attention to Lazio, because Lazio's head coach is Chinese.
Ever since Chang Shen became the head coach of Lazio, Lazio fans in China have become the happiest people.
Lazio's exposure on TV has increased sharply. When CCTV broadcasts Serie A games, it will try its best to select Lazio's games.
The most important thing is that Lazio's results are very good, which makes Lazio fans in China particularly happy.
In China, the number of Lazio fans is not large. Now it has expanded rapidly, all because of the constant victory.
After Lazio defeated Werder Bremen 4-0 at home, Lazio fans' forums in China were filled with various happy posts.
Dong Qiudi looked at the posts on the forum and clicked on each one one by one. From the main post to the follow-up posts, he didn't miss them all.
But he didn't reply, he just read it.
Just that alone made him feel very happy.
A few years ago, did he ever think that this day would happen?
I have been a Lazio fan for more than ten years, and I first fell in love with this team from a Lazio classic blue jersey.
I have experienced highs and lows with Lazio.
But I never dared to imagine that there would be such a glorious moment.
The passionate words on the forum also stirred his soul.
He looked at these words, and suddenly, a bold idea came to his mind.
Go to Italy, go to Rome!
I want to go to Vermelo to watch a winning training session, and I want to go to the north stand of the Stadio Olimpico in Rome to watch a Lazio game!
