Hero of the Penalty Area

The two parties quickly reached an agreement on Chen Yingxiong’s investment and starring in the leading actor. In order to show his sincerity and at the same time to relieve Medjani, Chen Yingxiong would first pay 500,000 euros in the account provided by Medjani. There are not many things that can be done with a small amount of money. The main thing is sincerity money to show sincerity.

With this money in the account, Medjani and Jones Jackson can start writing scripts. What I told Chen Yingxiong before was just a summary, the specific script details are not yet available.

After the script is written, give Chen Yingxiong, the largest investor at present, to review. After Chen Yingxiong is satisfied, everyone can start to form a crew and look for other investors at the same time. Chen Yingxiong is a layman, and Medjani is responsible for these things. However, since the money was paid, Chen Yingxiong would certainly not allow the other party to mess around with his money.

For this reason, he has to arrange his own people in this crew, and Dracula, who can go to heaven and earth, is obviously the most suitable candidate.

For other specific details, Chen Yingxiong entrusted Dracula to contact Medjani. He is a player and playing football is his main business. Whether it is investing in movies or starring in movies in person, Chen Yingxiong finds it fun, himself. Now that you have money and have a chance to play, then play.

He would not devote all his energy to the movie.

Anyway, Dracula only needs a blink of an eye to get to any place on the earth, don't worry about his time schedule. As Mr. Aurora with supernatural powers, of course the capable ones have worked harder...

This thing just passed.

Chen Yingxiong's mind is in the game, and then Liverpool will have an FA Cup game. But this game has nothing to do with him. Martin O'Neal is very determined to put him out of the big list this time, allowing him to get enough rest time. In the FA Cup, O'Neal sent a second Liverpool team composed of youth and reserve players.

As a result, Liverpool was forced to a 1:1 draw at home by a semi-professional team in the fifth division.

According to the rules of the English FA Cup, the FA Cup is a single elimination match. There is no home or away game, and there is no saying that there is no advantage in away goals.

If the two sides reach a tie within 90 minutes, there will be no overtime, but a rematch on another day. If the rematch is still tied, it will have to be overtime. If the overtime cannot be determined, the penalty kick will be decided.

Therefore, in this game, Liverpool was tied by Luton away, and the two sides need to find another day for Liverpool to play Luton at home.

For low-level league teams, why is the FA Cup so attractive to them? It is because if they draw their opponents at home, they have the opportunity to go to the opponent's away game. If the opponent is a wealthy team, there will naturally be more people coming to watch the game, and the large amount of ticket revenue allocated to the away team alone is worth the budget of these teams for a year. Not to mention that if they are lucky enough to be selected for a TV show, they can also get a rebroadcast fee that is expensive for them.

In addition to these, the weak team may also accidentally get a short-term chest advertising sponsorship because of going to the strong team to challenge the strong team... This has happened many times in history. A certain team once drew Manchester United at their home court, and the next game is going to Manchester United’s home game. Originally, there was no advertisement on the front of the team’s jersey because they were going to Old Trafford to show their faces. So some merchants come to the door and are willing to pay to print their brand logo on the chest of this team's jersey... It is because this game will be played at Old Trafford and there will be live TV, in this way Under the circumstances, it is naturally a good opportunity for businesses to advertise. Those weak teams don't have a big appetite. They can show their faces in England for 90 minutes with a small amount of money, and they can continue to promote their brands for free in various news reports after the game.

To put it bluntly, money is the reason why many low-level teams are desperately playing the FA Cup and causing trouble to the strong teams.

Because many strong teams always have reservations in the face of the FA Cup, the rise of the Premier League and the Champions League has made the FA Cup, the world's oldest modern football game, also lose its original charm.

Faced with absent-minded opponents of strong teams, weak teams may be upset. Therefore, the FA Cup is called "the hotbed of unpopularity". Almost all of the ten classic moments in the history of the FA Cup are related to unpopularity.

Luton drew Liverpool at home, which can be regarded as an upset.

But considering that Martin O'Neal allowed all first-team players to rest, this upset can only be regarded as not a big one.

And once he returns to Anfield, even if O'Neal doesn't value the FA Cup anymore, he must also value his own face-if Luton is allowed to eliminate Liverpool at Anfield, where will he put his face? Where to put the face of Liverpool's wealthy?

So it is foreseeable that Luton will end here.

They definitely can't pass the hurdle of Anfield.

Chen Yingxiong did not go to the away game, nor did he watch the game in front of the TV. At the time, he was eating and chatting with Chen Xing.

Chen Xing curiously asked about Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera's experience along the way.

Chen Yingxiong has never told the media about this, not because of what it is, but because there is no need to explain it to the reporters in such detail... Now that you wake up with Chen, Chen Yingxiong can't just say it vaguely. .

So he told Chen Xinghe the whole story.

Of course, after he finished speaking, he talked about Medjani's filming, and also told Chen Xingting the story outline of the script.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xing was actually very interested.

"Making a movie? That's a good idea!"

"Huh?" Chen Yingxiong didn't expect Chen Xing to be so interested in this matter. He was only talking about it as a funny thing.

"You said that your director friend is short of funds?"

Hero Chen nodded: "Yes..."

"I can come out!" Chen Xing patted his thigh.

"what?"

"But it is also conditional, that is, the team where the protagonist of the story is located must be Liverpool!"

Chen Yingxiong suddenly understood that Chen Xing was going to promote Liverpool's image all over the world, and the movie was obviously a very good tool.

"According to what you said, this movie does not require much investment...Because there are no big scenes, it is a road movie in general...So it doesn't need much investment. We can help solve the game scene. "

When Chen Xing said that, Chen Yingxiong also thought it was a good idea. Anyway, he starred himself. Wouldn't it be weird to wear the jerseys of other teams in the movie?

"Are you really sure?" he asked Chen Xing.

Chen Xing nodded: "Nonsense, not sure if I am talking about it?"

"Okay, I'll call him, and then you two will talk." After speaking, Chen Yingxiong took out his cell phone and called Karim Medjani directly.

On the phone, he talked about Chen Xing's intention to invest. Karim Medjani was busy writing the script with Jones Jackson during this time, and he hadn't bothered to find investors. But if someone takes the initiative to invest, he is definitely welcome with raising his hands.

"Then I let him talk to you?"

"No problem! Welcome!"

After hearing Medjani's answer, Chen Yingxiong handed the phone to Chen Xing.

The next thing is not for him to worry about. The successful or unsuccessful cooperation between Chen Xing and Medjani has little to do with him.

Chen Xing did not mean to avoid Chen Yingxiong, and directly talked with Medjani in front of Chen Yingxiong.

The two talked for about twenty minutes, but only one intention was confirmed.

Chen Xing can only decide whether to invest after seeing the notebook.

Medjani promised that after the book was written, he and Jones would visit Liverpool in person. At that time, we will discuss specific cooperation matters face to face.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xingchong and Chen Yingxiong smiled: "Are you going to star in this movie? I'm suddenly looking forward to seeing your performance on the big screen, haha!"

At this moment, Chen Xing's phone rang.

"Huh, is it Lu Niang?" Chen Xing glanced at the caller ID on the phone screen, and then connected the call.

"Uh...hhhhhh?" Chen Xing's tone changed obviously, and he looked surprised.

Chen Yingxiong was also interested, and wanted to know what Niang was talking about.

"Okay, I see, it's okay. It's not a big deal."

After hanging up the phone and waiting for Chen Yingxiong to ask questions, Chen Xing himself said: "The team was tied by Luton in the away game."

Chen Yingxiong was also surprised: "What?"

"1:1." Chen Xing shrugged. "Now Luton has a chance to come to Anfield, but this is also their last chance."

The match was too trivial, so Chen Xing did not go to the scene to watch the match. Unexpectedly, the result was beyond his expectations.

But he also knows that Luton is absolutely impossible to eliminate Liverpool.

Chen Yingxiong held the same view, so he was only a little surprised, but he was not worried about the future of the team.

※※※

Liverpool's away game is tied, which has a lot to do with the lack of comrades in all the main players of the first team. But O'Neal said in a press conference after the game that he was not surprised by such a result.

He still values ​​the league more, but unfortunately, it seems that after the Devil's schedule, everyone suddenly relaxes.

In the 22nd round of the league, Liverpool challenged Reading away, but was tied by their opponents. The score was still 1:1.

In this game, Chen Yingxiong, Sanchez, Suarez, Adam Johnson, Gerrard, Inle... and other major players all played, but there was no way to win the game.

When the game ended, the Liverpool players could not hide the disappointment on their faces...

Chen Yingxiong was particularly disappointed.

Because he didn't score in this game.

He originally thought that after a rest of the game, he should be able to fight against Reading when he was energetic.

How can I think that it is worse than his performance in the race immediately after driving 1,500 kilometers...

It seems that he is the kind of player who needs pressure...
