Pirated Ronaldo

Chapter 99
"Captain Maniche..."

"Stop! Don't call me captain, call me a lunatic or Maniche if you can afford it. Good boy, your performance on the field is domineering enough, it's fun to watch, I hope you will improve as soon as possible, join the national team, we will do it teammate!"

Ronando was taken aback when he heard that, this Portuguese guy is too tough!

Although many people were greeting each other at the scene, when Nuno Maniche said this, his voice was not deliberately lowered, and the players on both sides could hear it, especially Herder Posti in the Porto queue Plus can hear it too!
It is conceivable that Hélder Postiga would vomit blood with anger when he heard Nuno Maniche's words?

Ronando casually glanced at Hélder Postiga in the Porto queue. Sure enough, the guy's face showed signs of going berserk, but for some reason, he didn't explode on the spot, but just used vicious Eyes fixed on Ronando and Nuno Maniche.

As expected of "Madman" Maniche, Ronando vaguely remembered that this player was called "Portuguese Iron Waist", and he competed with French Iron Waist Makelele. Later, he followed Mourinho's footsteps to Chelsea. However, he was unsatisfactory in Chelsea, where the big names gathered, and then went to Atletico Madrid. He seemed to play well and was regarded as a relatively successful player among the current Portuguese players.

"Crazy brother, I will work hard!" Ronando said seriously.

It is already the night of February 2th, the day of the game. From a certain point of view, Elder Postiga has lost to the point of pawning his pants!

When the voting window of the SIC TV station website opened in the early hours of the morning, those who were interested were shocked to find that Ronando's support votes were skyrocketing. Since this webpage is updated in real time, anyone who enters this webpage can see The fan voting data at that point in time is incredible.

How big is the disparity between Ronaldo and Hélder Postiga?
Every time Herder Postiga gets a vote, Ronando's votes will increase hundreds or even thousands of times!

This is not surprising at all. How many Portuguese fans can wait there to vote at midnight, but China is different. At 8:[-] in the morning, most people have finished their breakfast and are ready to go to work. After voting, many people took advantage of the gap before going to work to vote after arriving at the work unit. Therefore, an hour after the voting window opened, the voting results had frightened all the Portuguese who paid attention to this matter.

Herder Postiga got more than 600 votes, while Ronando has more than 40 votes!

The support rate difference between the two sides is more than 600 times. No matter how you look at this kind of data, it feels strange. What does the figure of 40 mean to Portugal? That is 4% of the entire population of Portugal. Such a figure is rarely seen in any activities in Portugal. Appear.

For example, in the European Cup in 2004, Portugal reached the final. At that time, the whole country was boiling, and almost all the fans who could rush to Lisbon ran out, but that was it. According to the statistics at that time, there were only 50 Portuguese fans in Lisbon.

Fans who are willing to vote for Ronaldo online only took an hour to approach the number of fans who supported the Portuguese national team last year, and this number is still soaring!
Could it be that someone maliciously swiped votes?This is a scandal!
This time the vote was notarized by a notary office in Lisbon. As a last resort, the notary office invited professionals overnight to conduct data sampling analysis. Of course, the analysis results came out soon. These votes are all real, but To everyone's surprise, most of the IP addresses of the fans who supported Ronando came from China half a world away, which belonged to overseas voting...

However, this result makes everyone feel tricky.

The voting rules do not exclude overseas voting. In the view of the organizers, with the fame of Ronaldo and Herder Postiga, the number of supportive fans from overseas is not large and can be ignored. What should I do in special circumstances?
If you hire professionals to remove the votes in China, not to mention whether it is fair, the workload alone is very scary. For such a fun-loving vote, is it worth it?

Throughout the day, Ronando's number of votes increased rapidly, and everyone was numb.

Before the start of the game, according to the data obtained by Ronando, his number of support rose to 400 million, while Hélder Postiga had only more than 3 support votes. The gap between the two has narrowed, but still The difference is more than 130 times. It can be said that according to such voting rules, not to mention taking Hélder Postiga to compete with Ronan Dodo, even if all the members of the Portuguese national team are added together, they will not be able to get 400 million fan votes. .

In order to avoid doubts from Portuguese fans, L'Equipe and SIC TV published an official explanation on the event page early on, explaining the source of the data.

Unexpectedly, as soon as this explanation came out, it immediately triggered another round of heated discussions.

There has never been a star with so many supportive fans in Portuguese football!Even Luis Figo, the 2001 World Footballer of the Year, or other European football superstars, has the ability to get 400 million fans to vote for him online?Doubtful!
Ronando is a treasure!

He has just debuted for two months, and in such a hastily launched fan vote, he can get millions of votes, which is enough to show his market potential!
The average spending power of Chinese fans is low, but it is a market with huge potential. Why do some big-name clubs try to introduce Chinese players, even if they can’t play, it doesn’t matter. The reason is to use these players to open up the Far East China market. Now , a guy who is more suitable than the average Chinese player has appeared, this player can not only play football, but also get a lot of support in China...

Ronaldo, who followed his teammates onto the court, didn't know that this time the online voting had inadvertently brought him huge benefits.

European football in the 21st century is also a commercialized world. Any team has economic interests as one of its main goals. Under such a premise, a team that can win a large number of fans in the No. 1 most populous country in the world A player whose value is far higher than a player with the same level of football.

Because he can create value off the field!
Not to mention, Premier League Manchester United introduced Chinese 2004-year-old striker Dong Fangzhuo in early 19. The transfer was worth 350 million pounds. There are more burning hands, but I want to expand the club's influence in China through this signing. In this way, not only will Manchester United's TV broadcast costs increase, but the sponsorship contract will also allow Manchester United to earn several times.

Therefore, Manchester United spent a transfer fee of 350 million pounds and an annual salary of 100 million euros to support Dong Fangzhuo. They did not suffer a loss, but made a profit.

Without Ronando's knowledge, the phone of his agent Jorge Mendes has been blown up!
These calls are nothing more than two things. One is to learn about Ronando’s situation and make pre-signing preparations. The other is to invite Ronando to be a brand endorsement. Suddenly, Ronando became a Portuguese football player. Even a piece of meat and potatoes in European football, as long as he is willing, even with an endorsement contract, he can immediately become a rich man...

However, the shrewd Mendes would not do stupid things like killing chickens and taking eggs. He was the first person to keenly discover the value of Ronando. The excited Mendes knew that his spring was coming, which was a fortune. Comparable to the big business of Porto's big shake-up in 2004, if Ronaldo can successfully transfer to a giant this summer, he will immediately become a top gold-sucking stone.

Mendes, who had figured it all out, called Ronando and briefly said a summary.

"Want to become the most profitable football star in the world? Beat Postiga! Then develop steadily. After half a year, you will be the star of all Europe!"

Ronando is not a fool, he can understand what Mendes means, as long as he proves that he has better abilities than Herder Postiga, he will have the basic ability to gain a foothold in European giants, with Mendes With the means, he will definitely be able to transfer to a big-name club next season.

The most profitable soccer star in the world!
Money is a good thing. Ronando wanted to become a millionaire in his dreams. Unexpectedly, his complaints about the large population in China made him a superhero balloon star, which made him famous in football. Competitiveness has greatly increased, which is really unpredictable.

However, all of this must be based on one foundation: Ronando must be able to play, at least better than Elder Postiga!Otherwise, everything is empty talk.

Porto's formation is a typical Portuguese 4-2-3-1. Specifically, it uses double midfielders to protect its own half, and the positions of the two wingers are slightly delayed to leave an impact distance. There is only one single striker on the front line. , This formation is a variant of 4-3-3, which is often adopted by Dutch and Spanish teams, but the original 4-2-3-1 depends on Portugal, the European Latin faction.

The Portuguese national team generally adopts this configuration in major matches. In this formation, the two front wingers are particularly important and often serve as the starting point of the team's offense. This is why Simao and Luis Figo are in the Portuguese national team. The reason why the team has a high status is because they are the main left and right wingers of the national team.
