Rent the stadium!
When the news came out, even Lu Yang who was in China was surprised.
Sanremo Football Club officially announced that it will rent a large stadium in the provincial capital city Imperia next door for one year to use for all home games before the new stadium built by San Remo is officially completed.
The stadium is called "Makabaka Stadium". After renovation in the summer, the capacity is expected to reach 20,000 to 25,000.
This is much larger than San Remo's small stadium with 2,000 people.
You know, San Remo, who scored Serie B, now has a lot of fans. Their small stadium has long been unable to satisfy the enthusiasm of the fans.
On the one hand, it is for the fans, and on the other hand, it is a huge revenue. Tickets will become a very important part of the club's income source in the future.
Although Russell is very rich, as a football club, you should learn to make your own money when you mature, right?
Of course, San Remo is a club full of human touch.
They are still on the road between a small country club and a large club.
During this period, human touch is definitely a good card.
Whether it is the re-employment of retired players, failed youth training personnel, or taking care of local fans, etc., San Remo has done a good job.
On the one hand, it doesn't cost much to do this. It's even possible that this is a two-way demand, and San Remo is short of people.
On the other hand, the club's reputation and brand management are inseparable from such a process of feeding back the local area.
Therefore, after confirming the rental of the stadium, San Remo also announced that all regular stores around the municipal stadium, such as Brownie's "Goal Bar", etc., will all be moved by San Remo to the vicinity of Makabaka Stadium!
The rent is advanced by San Remo, and then deducted from the revenue of these stores in installments over ten months.
Basically, these shop owners can complete secondary investment without spending too much money.
This kind of considerate support is almost beyond what the club should do.
Moreover, every one of the owners who opened a store near San Remo Municipal Stadium has made a lot of money now.
San Remo is a tourist city. With the rise of San Remo, the municipal stadium has become a tourist attraction. And this time Russell Group rebuilt the stadium and did not demolish the municipal stadium.
The Municipal Stadium has been planned as an official tourist attraction by the local government and is jointly owned by the government and San Remo Club.
There is no need to worry about the future of this attraction.
For a time, those small bosses were very proud.
The former store will be upgraded to a tourist attraction store.
And now we will soon be able to have a new, bigger and better store.
Just asking, who can still be dissatisfied?
Even!
After the construction of San Remo's new four-star stadium is completed, these owners will also have privileges such as priority selection, abnormally low prices, and long lease periods. They can choose shops from the commercial facilities next to the stadium and move to the new stadium with San Remo.
In the blink of an eye, one becomes three!
And the configuration is getting higher and higher!
This is definitely money falling from the sky, which is more cost-effective than demolition.
I'm just asking you if you accept this kind of operation!
Some people may have questions, why does San Remo treat the surrounding shop owners so well?
The answer is simple.
In the early days of San Remo, every one of the store owners around him was a die-hard fan of the team.
People like Brownie are the leaders of the die-hard fan club.
They represent the original San Remo die-hard fans.
When a team is prosperous, the proportion of die-hard fans is very small, and it seems to be of little use.
But when a team is at a low point, die-hard fans are the only motivation to support the team!
The financial support, the cheers of the fans in attendance, and the constant travel with the team in away games give the team a touch of familiar warmth... They will give the team everything it needs.
Diehard fans can support the team during the downturn and take the lead during the upswing.
If the club doesn't cherish such fans, how can the club cherish the gossip fans, anti-fans, cheating fans and winning fans?
Of course, any club will change as the owner behind it changes, the owner's original intention changes, and the club's main purpose changes.
Maybe this club has been very close to the people these years, but in a dozen years it may become something that is unfamiliar to fans.
This is also the biggest change Jin Yuan has brought to Europe football.
This is also the biggest reason why most Europe local fans, especially fans of small teams, hate Jinyuan Football.
Money and business have turned a team that everyone loves and is familiar with into a team that is extremely cold from the management to the players.
The close and harmonious relationship between fans, players and clubs that once existed will never return to the past.
Of course, this kind of change will not appear on San Remo in a short time.
They are still young!
For other fans, San Remo also has comfort measures.
After all, Makabaka Stadium is an old stadium. The previous home team was Imperia Football Club. Now they are probably still at Serie D, oh no, struggling in the regional league.
Even after summer renovations and maintenance, the overall environment is still relatively poor, and the fans' on-site experience may not be very good.
To this end, San Remo announced that fans who have ordered Imperia Makabaka Stadium season tickets this year will be able to get a 30% discount on season tickets when the team moves into the new stadium next season!
This is definitely a good deal!
For a four-star stadium, the ticket price will undoubtedly be higher than that of an old stadium like Makabaka.
The interior configuration, seats, services, ventilation, large screen, turf, etc. are all much higher than those of Makabaka Stadium. It is normal that the price is more expensive.
Season ticket fans are mostly core fans. Even if they continue to play at Makabaka Stadium next season, even if there is no discount, they will still buy season tickets.
So this activity is purely profit-making for them.
Basically, as long as San Remo is not relegated this season, these fans will make a lot of money.
Even... if San Remo is lucky enough to complete the incredible three consecutive jumps next season, then... the discount they will get will be even more exaggerated!
After all, the tickets of Serie A are far beyond what Serie B can match.
This move can't help but put the two wealthy Premier League clubs that also built new stadiums to shame.
As far as giving money to fans, San Remo is really like no one else.
Mainland.
"Beautiful! Very beautiful movements, very perfect... Come on, Lu Yang, can you do another set of movements? We will add special effects to this, like bullet time... Yes, yes, yes, OK! Call it a day, call it a day!"
In a certain studio, Lu Yang is cooperating with the director to shoot advertising materials.
After the shooting, Lu Yang put his hands together and was greeting all the staff on site. "Thank you everyone, sorry for bothering you, thank you very much..."
In terms of politeness, it goes without saying.
It's not that details determine success or failure. I'm worried that if I overturn in the future, I'll be tricked.
Purely because this is a reflection of personal quality and a natural result of mutual respect between people.
This is a commercial shoot for HXLT.
Lu Yang did not return to Italy with the team after European Under-21 Championship, but went directly back to the mainland with Mr. Tang, and at the same time started the summer vacation for football players that is about to end!
I say it's a vacation, but actually I'm here to shoot commercials, participate in some activities arranged by brands, etc.
It can be regarded as a change of direction and relaxation.
Vacation time is very important for professional athletes.
Some players' skills obviously improved over the summer.
Some players get noticeably stronger over the summer.
However, some players spent a summer eating, drinking, whoring, gambling and playing games, and gained 10 or 20 pounds visibly, and at the same time, their internal physical fitness actually dropped a lot.
These are all related to the players' summer vacation arrangements.
But Lu Yang does not require additional training.
While others are resting or practicing, he is participating in European Under-21 Championship.
The amount of training and competition is very sufficient.
Therefore, he just needs to take a good rest in the next period of time.
In fact, what is said to be a period of time is actually only a few days.
It's now August.
And by August 10th at the latest, Lu Yang will have to return to the team for pre-match training.
Considering that Lu Yang still has a lot of work and entertainment left, these days are particularly precious to him, and his schedule is full every day.
Because Lu Yang had no familiar friends in the mainland, Tang Yuqin stayed with him during this period, acting as a guide and even his secretary.
Thanks to the four episodes of <Super Football>'s documentary, Tang Yuqin only had time to accompany Lu Yang.
Of course, there was a reason why she appeared here.
Tang Yuqin and Lu Yang also have a very important task this summer, that is... to assist Italian Football Federation and Sanremo Football Club in implementing relevant cooperation in China.
"How are the sneakers? I heard that sneakers are very important to athletes." Tang Yuqin came over and asked, "HXLT attaches great importance to cooperation with you and expressed its willingness to modify the sneakers based on your opinions."
"They plan to release a flagship sneaker for you early next year."
Because Lu Yang doesn't have his own manager in China, and he doesn't think he needs one, so Tang Yuqin, who has been following him these days, is regarded by many people as Lu Yang's manager.
Tang Yuqin didn't put on airs and actually discussed Lu Yang's work with those people.
"It's enough for competition, and they do a good job in terms of quality. But the design of the appearance is too old, and even a little bit rustic. It may be difficult to promote this kind of sneakers abroad." Lu Yang said, "I will send you a few appearance pictures tonight. You can help me communicate with them to see if they can make the style of sneakers I requested while ensuring quality..."
Lu Yang and Tang Yuqin got into the car while communicating.
Soon, they arrived at another place, Shanghai Stadium.
Here, there is a Celebrity Match meeting held.
The participating parties are mainly retired China National Football Team players and some stars in the entertainment industry who like football.
Attention is okay.
This kind of Celebrity Match has existed before, but the embarrassing thing is that there are really not enough fans of those China National Football Team celebrities. In the past, not many people poured into the stadium for this kind of competition, and they were mainly fans of those celebrities.
It was obviously a football match, but in the end it was no longer professional at all and it was just a star-chasing scene.
It can be said that football as a sport has suffered a lot of humiliation in the country.
Domestic fans, I have been fans of the entertainment industry for a long time!
Such a situation would not occur in Europe and South America, which have a strong football atmosphere.
But this year, there are obviously more real fans.
Because the fans present today are far more than the three to five thousand people who attended this Celebrity Match in the past.
Instead, there were almost 30,000 fans, and Shanghai Stadium accounted for nearly half of them.
Such a grand event, let alone those fans in the entertainment industry, after all, a concert with ten thousand people is a very impressive achievement in the entertainment industry.
Thirty thousand people, still can't blow it to the sky?
Even those retired China National Football Team not only feel like they are dreaming back to those days.
I think back then, tens of thousands of people watched China National Football Team play football.
There are even rumors that the number of spectators at some football games exceeds 100,000 people! Later fans don't know whether it is true or not, and whether they should believe it or not.
"Why are there so many fans this time? What's going on?" Several fans were confused at the time. They originally thought that today's strongest opponents were the returning four sons and Kun Kun, but now it seems that what on earth are the blue and white jerseys for most of the game?
No. 24?
Michael Kobe?
Jordan Bryant?
Isn't that a basketball player?
It has to be said that in the entertainment industry, it is quite a big deal for fans to hold various support light boards and support light sticks with the same support color.
But compared with the almost uniform jerseys throughout the stadium, the momentum is still a lot lower.
After all, uniforms are tempting!
What's more, in this game, the ratio of fans to entertainment fans is about ten to one!
The blue and white jerseys all over his face confused these young star-chasing fans.
Where does this huge traffic come from?
Why are there so many real fans?
The so-called top streamers can easily organize gatherings of thousands of fans offline.
But now, people often organize tens of thousands of fans. Isn't this extremely popular on the Internet? V blog fans are still in the tens of millions?
"Blue and white, are the stars from Argentina here? I heard that there are foreign stars coming to participate in Celebrity Match this year."
"I don't know, but I heard he's very handsome."
"Tch, no matter how handsome you are, can you be as handsome as my brother?"
Female fans are talking a lot.
Then suddenly, the stadium exploded!
On the big screen, two players wearing jerseys of different colors walked out of the tunnel.
The one on the left is Soto wearing a white jersey!
Today, he is on a team with retired players.
The one on the right is Lu Yang wearing a red jersey!
Today, he is on a team with those stars.
Their appearance directly shocked the fans in the stands.
Because everyone only knew that Lu Yang was coming, but they didn't know that Soto was also coming!
Soto!
That's Soto!
Italy was one of the main contributors to winning World Cup Trophy back then!
Serie A legendary celebrity!
One of the top 100 superstars in world football!
Looking at the attitudes of China National Football Team's group of retired famous players, you can basically tell how moved the old fans were by Soto's presence today.
Any football superstar who comes to the football desert will definitely be treated like a football king.
Of course, the popularity of Lu Yang is also not low, even higher than Soto.
On the one hand, Lu Yang is more handsome!
Um...
It hurts!
On the other hand, Lu Yang is China's own football star.
The scene of him running while wearing Hongqi on European Under-21 Championship moved countless fans.
Since then, no matter where he plays, he will always be the hero of China football!
"Soto, Soto!"
"Lu Yang, Lu Yang!"
For a moment, the only voices in the stands were the voices of these two names.
Other names such as brother and giegie are not worth mentioning at all.
With thirty thousand people shouting in unison, the noisy voice of three to five thousand people is not worth mentioning.
Soon, the game started.
Celebrity Match Twenty minutes each half.
Soto played in the first half, while Lu Yang played the entire game.
Soto contributed a goal and an assist.
Don't be too relaxed when the veteran team plays against the star team. Among these stars, some really like football or can actually play football, but there are also some people who come here just to gain gimmicks and establish their personality, but they actually don't know how to play football.
But fortunately, Lu Yang was here, he easily scored five goals in the game, and gave two assists to Xiaolu, the only player who could play football, leading the team to win the game 7-5.
This is also the only time in recent years that the star team defeated the veteran team on Shanghai Football Celebrity Invitational.
During the period, Lu Yang also met the organizer's request and brought some fairy balls.
Three midfield lob attempts were made, one of which was successful, sending the entire audience into high spirits.
Long shot from outside the penalty area.
A high-altitude bombing goal that took off from the penalty area.
One person scores a goal after beating five people in a row.
After knocking down the goalkeeper, he brought the football into the goal.
Basically the effect is sufficient.
To be honest, Lu Yang doesn't feel any pressure playing with these China National Football Team veterans.
Their current strength level may only be around fifty points.
However, the heartbreaking thing is that according to the predictions of domestic media, the current strength of this group of retired veterans is not much weaker than China National Football Team.
This... you can only imagine what level China National Football Team is.
For such a team, not to mention Lu Yang has joined, even if nine more Lu Yang join, it will not be able to fill the remaining huge hole, let alone there are eleven huge holes now!
Celebrity Match is very effective, Lu Yang and Soto are very profitable.
But Lu Yang later arranged for Tang Yuqin to help him donate the ticket money to the previous football project.
He doesn't make money from fans.
Whatever is taken from the fans, must be used for the fans.
He has other ways to make money, so there is no need to harvest fans.
One thing to say, 95% of the people who come to watch the football today are not as good as Lu Yang.
Of course, this is not moral kidnapping. Soto can completely arrange Soto's money by himself.
Soto almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Because when Lu Yang announced this decision, he took a microphone and said it to all the fans. He also said it specifically in Italian. What do you mean?
Soto's face is full of pain.
I finally went out to enjoy the autumn wind, but in the end I met a moral bitch like Lu Yang.
So after Lu Yang finished speaking, the legendary star Soto took the microphone and spoke in broken Chinese: "Yi Yang... Yi Yang..."
I almost got a Yi Yangqianxi.
The fans in the audience applauded wildly and gave the two international stars their warmest applause.
As for the other people, although their faces were red, they still held back and did not follow the vote.
Lu Yang and Soto can look down on this money, but others can't. This money is quite a lot for them. Doing charity also requires ability.
Basically, this event can be said to be very successful.
Related news also appeared frequently in the news of the day.
He even suppressed all the press releases prepared by the celebrities participating in the competition.
This is the suppression of fake traffic by natural traffic.
Why does Soto appear in the country?
The answer is actually obvious.
The goal of connecting San Remo with domestic football clubs has basically been determined. With the help of Luo Cheng and Shanghai Port's own efforts, they finally got this good opportunity.
Starting from this year, the cooperation between San Remo and Shanghai Port has been put on the agenda.
In the next five years, San Remo and Shanghai Port will have multiple exchanges.
It also includes some interactions between teams, training, etc.
For example, this year, San Remo's upcoming pre-season training will be arranged at the training venue provided by Shanghai Port.
Not only that, the training process will also be made public to the domestic media, allowing the domestic media to reap a wave of dividends.
It can be said that although Lu Yang is not a China National Football Team player, the impact and development it has brought to China football far exceeds that of China National Football Team.
At least it is much better than China National Football Team in recent years.
The day after Soto arrived, Moric also arrived at Shanghai.
But he is not alone, but with a large family.
Not only Moric's father, mother and biological sister who are several years younger than him, but also his cousins, his parents' biological sisters, etc., a total of more than thirty people.
Lu Yang warmly welcomed Moric's "family" and invited them to have their first sumptuous dinner as a welcome gift.
"So why did you join the travel agency? Will you still play football in the future?" Lu Yang asked in a low voice during the dinner.
"What?" Moric was a little confused.
"If it weren't for your family's strong genes and most of you have hooked noses, I would have thought you brought a Croatia tour group!" Lu Yang joked.
"Haha, this is called returning home from wealth. Now that I have the ability, I naturally want to help my family." Moric explained solemnly, "In fact, there is not much I can do to help them now."
"Croatia is constantly breaking out into small-scale firefights, and I don't have the ability to get them all to Italy yet. I actually feel very guilty inside."
"I hope everyone is well and no accidents will ever happen."
Lu Yang could feel Moric's sincerity. This was a life and death crisis that China's relatives could not feel. He patted Moric on the shoulder and said, "Everything will go as you wish."
"By the way, are you sure Emma is your biological sister?" Lu Yang pointed at Moric's sister calmly.
Emma is the same as Moric, with golden hair.
But the same color, on the head of Moric, is called yellow hair, but on the head of Emma, it is hair as smooth as gold.
Moreover, Emma's nose is not as overly aquiline as Moric's, and her appearance is considered a very standard Eastern European beauty.
Emma is three years younger than Moric and is sixteen this year, but due to race, his development is actually very good.
What?
Beast?
Don't get me wrong, Lu Yang just wants to say that Emma is taller.
Isn't height an important indicator of development?
"Hey hey hey, don't pay attention to Emma, she is still a child!" Moric glared at Lu Yang, and at the same time glanced back and forth between Lu Yang and Tang Yuqin.
He always feels that there is something wrong with this China woman.
Why did Lu Yang stay with this woman again as soon as he came to China?
Could it be... could it be... oh my god!
Moric has a bold idea in his mind.
He admitted that Tang Yuqin is also a beauty, but... is it true that while having Sophia, a man would also be interested in other women, or even be unclear with other women?
What kind of experience is this?
Moric was fascinated, oh no, he sneered.
"You misunderstood, I just think Emma is already 168, why are you only 174?" Lu Yang said with a smile, "By the way, did I tell you about my 185 before?"
Moric held a table knife, titanium alloy red light flashing in his eyes. "Have you ever heard of amputation surgery?"
Pounce!
Emma and Tang Yuqin were laughing so hard at the sidelines that they thought it was so interesting that Moric and Lu Yang were bickering.
