Full-Level Pass, Please Call Me The Boss Of The Three Lions

The first time, the second time.

Chapter 137 Welcome to the world of football stars!

Because his parents were still traveling in Brazil, Ling Feng was the only one left at home in Leicester.

However, before he sat down, Mendes called:

“I’ll be at your door!”

As soon as the voice fell, the sound of a car horn rang outside the house.

When he came to the window and looked out, a black nanny car was parked at the door of his house.

When he arrived at the door, Mendes walked in quickly,

“I thought you were still in Brazil”

“Did you get the custom suit you ordered before?”

After attending the PFA awards ceremony at the end of April, Ling Feng, under the guidance of Mendes, came to Savile Row, the most famous “custom street” in London.

Fully customized suits are the essence of Savile Row customization, and the basis for its long-lasting prosperity for two hundred years.

It usually takes 4 to 12 weeks to customize a suit on Savile Row.

There will be three fittings and adjustments in the middle, and this is still the premise that the customer is in London.

Some foreigners have to wait for half a year to a year for a custom suit from Savile’s top tailors.

Purely handmade, plus brand value, a full set of custom suits cost Ling Feng a whole week’s salary!

Although it is a drop in the bucket for Ling Feng.

However, compared with the suit he changed last time, it is already more than ten times more expensive!

Hearing Mendes’ question, Ling Feng was stunned at first, and then responded:

“It was just done two days ago, and I haven’t picked it up yet. What’s wrong?”

“We will go to London later to meet with Oakley’s London director, then complete the signing ceremony and attend the party. We will sign with Hublot tomorrow.”

Oakley is a sports brand in the United States, focusing on various functional glasses, as well as casual wear, skiing, swimming, cycling and track and field sportswear.

Ling Feng plans to sign a sunglasses endorsement contract with it, worth 300,000 pounds a year.

Hublot is a Swiss watch brand, which is considered a new generation in the watch industry and fits Ling Feng’s image very well.

This watch brand offered Ling Feng an endorsement fee of 200,000 pounds a year.

These two companies were finalized after Mendes carefully selected them.

He once suggested that Ling Feng would rather not accept commercial endorsements than cooperate with those miscellaneous or unknown small brands.

That would only lower Ling Feng’s value and status, and make the outside world think that he is a player who is greedy for money.

Ling Feng agrees with this.

This is why he became a client of Mendes.

Professional things should be left to professionals.

As a big player in the football agent industry, Mendes not only has super connections and channels, rich business development experience, but also can guide him in career planning.

He only needs to concentrate on playing football, and Mendes can help him solve everything else!

However, Ling Feng was somewhat resistant to participating in business activities right after the World Cup.

“I just came back, can’t I rest for two days first?”

“This is just the beginning! After we sign a contract with Nike in two days, you will have to shoot commercials for Nike”

After a pause, Mendes opened his arms and smiled brightly to his clients:

“Hey, young man, welcome to the world of stars!”

. . .

After returning to China, Ling Feng was even busier than during the World Cup in Brazil.

Not only did he have to meet with executives of several commercial brands and hold signing ceremonies, he also had to participate in related commercial activities and help the brands take related promotional photos.

These things that he had never touched before made Ling Feng feel very curious and fresh.

At the same time, he was also a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Mendes sent him an assistant sister to follow up on his business activities.

Of course, while working hard to make money, he also kept an eye on the progress of the World Cup.

After easily defeating England, Brazil’s opponent in the semi-finals was Germany.

In this crucial game, although Neymar, the core of the Samba Army, started, he didn’t know whether he was affected by the tackle in the previous game and was in a very poor state.

In addition to the Germans’ special care, he basically couldn’t get the ball on the court or pass anyone.

The frontcourt attack was blocked, and the defense line without the defensive leader Thiago Silva was like a hot summer day.

The refrigerator door was opened again and again by the German tanks, and they took whatever they wanted.

However, compared with the original 7-1 tragedy in history, Brazil only lost 4-1.

Even so, when Ling Feng saw the Brazilian grandfather who appeared in the live broadcast, holding the imitation gold cup and looking uncomfortable, his heart was still touched.

In the end, Germany and Argentina met in the final to compete for the championship!

Before the final, FIFA took the lead in announcing the candidate list for the Best Newcomer Award of this Brazil World Cup.

The three candidates are Memphis Depay, the striker of the Netherlands, Paul Pogba, the golden boy of the French midfield, and Ling Feng, the new Beckham of England!

However, in the eyes of many people, Ling Feng’s award is basically a foregone conclusion.

In five games, he contributed one goal and four assists and won the best player of the game twice.

As a newcomer who participated in the World Cup for the first time, such data is absolutely amazing!

This is also Ling Feng’s first impression of the world football in this World Cup!

Whether it was the long pass assist against Italy in the group stage, or the fake shot in the knockout stage, he fully demonstrated his broad vision and superb football IQ.

He was also able to make long shots, dribble past players and advance,

and even his defensive enthusiasm was higher than most offensive midfielders!

Not only the British media and football experts, but also the media in other countries were praising Ling Feng, believing that he was the core of England’s midfield for the next ten years!

They played this set very well.

Because when Wilshere came out of nowhere, they also used the same operation to praise the Arsenal prodigy to the sky.

In addition to the carnival of the British media, sports media in many countries reported the attention and interest of their own league teams in Ling Feng.

Most of the teams that closely follow him are the big clubs in the top five European leagues, such as:

Serie A’s AC Milan and Juventus;

Bundesliga’s Dortmund and Bayern;

La Liga’s Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid;

Premier League’s Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester United.

Around Ling Feng, there are all kinds of gossip and transfer rumors, which have become a major source of traffic for the British media.

Many people believe that Ling Feng, who shines in the World Cup, will not stay in Leicester City, but will go to a bigger team and a bigger stage.

However, only Ling Feng knows his future.

. . .

On July 14, 2014, the final of the Brazil World Cup was held in Maracana in Rio de Janeiro.

The two sides are the “Germanic Chariot” Germany and the “Pampas Eagle” Argentina.

With the goal scored by substitute Mario Gotze in overtime, Germany defeated Argentina and won the World Cup!

At that time, Ling Feng, who was watching the live broadcast at home in Leicester, watched Messi pass by the World Cup wearing the World Cup trophy.

The hurricane created by the flapping wings of this butterfly did not affect the ownership of the World Cup champion after all.

As the event came to an end, the various awards of this World Cup were also announced.

Messi, who led Argentina to the finals and almost won the championship, won the World Cup Golden Ball Award.

The Golden Boot Award, which originally belonged to James Rodriguez, was awarded to Thomas Muller, who scored five goals.

The reason is simple. James Rodriguez was eliminated by England, where Ling Feng was, and scored two fewer goals, and could only tie for second place with Neymar, who scored four goals.

The Golden Glove Award belongs to Neuer, the Bayern goalkeeper who pioneered the “gatekeeper” style of play and finally helped Germany win the championship.

And Ling Feng defeated Depay and Pogba with an absolute advantage and won the Best Newcomer Award of this World Cup!

Not only that, he was also selected into the best lineup of this World Cup with his outstanding performance!
