A top-tier goalkeeper storms the football world.
Lei Ming – a man with a fierce, domineering appearance whose aura overwhelms all 21 players on the field. As Portugal's guardian deity, ...
"Lei, stop hitting him! If you keep fighting, something bad will happen!"
"Lei, stop! Calm down."
"Ray, stop! Fighting in the club is punishable."
The next morning, after all the players had breakfast, they went into the locker room to prepare for the next day's training. However, after most of them went out, they received some very unpleasant news.
Lei Ming actually beat up 272 in the locker room, leaving a mess. If it weren't for Captain Mertesacker and Lacazette pulling him away, 272 would probably have been in the hospital for several days.
At this moment, everyone realized how powerful Lei Ming's body was. Despite his lack of muscle definition, it took several people working together to hold him back. It was hard to imagine whether 272 could withstand such power.
Just look at his unconscious state; he must be in a lot of pain!
When Wenger arrived with his coaching team upon hearing the news, his face fell completely.
It was hard to imagine that the boy who always gave off a sunny vibe would do something like this. He immediately arranged for others to send 272 to the hospital and then called Lei Ming to his office alone.
At the same time, he also demanded that everyone not spread the news, or they would face severe punishment.
He knew very well the capabilities of the Premier League paparazzi, and if this matter were to be exposed, it would be hard to say whether Lei Ming could still stay in the football world.
Although he had immediately blocked the news, as the head coach, he naturally had to take responsibility for such a big situation at the club. However, he needed to understand what exactly happened and why Lei Ming, who was usually very stable, had become so agitated.
"Lei, tell me, what exactly happened?"
Clearly, Wenger, who was focused on the game, was unaware of what had happened on social media last night. He had been studying the other teams in the Europa League group stage until very late, and he didn't expect to encounter such a distressing situation as soon as he arrived at the club.
Although Lei Ming knew that hitting people was wrong, he felt no remorse whatsoever.
Throughout, his expression remained perfectly stable, and his gaze was directed solely at 272.
Lei Ming took out his phone and showed the professor a news article.
"Professor, you can take a look at this first. If you were in this situation, what would you do?"
A moment later, Wenger was even more puzzled after reading it, and asked in bewilderment, "But I seem to remember that you are a Portuguese citizen, why are you so emotional?"
This is what he finds most puzzling; he doesn't understand why the other party would involve something he doesn't want to do.
Lei Ming smiled and shook his head, his eyes firm, and said, "No, Professor, you are wrong. Although I cannot choose my birth, no matter where we descendants of Yan and Huang go, China will always be our homeland. You should know what the homeland means to a person, right? It is the harbor of wanderers."
"Although I don't know who my parents are, I know that my ancestors must be in China. Also, not long ago, my adoptive mother also left this world because of criminals. I hate all terrorism."
"272 If he dares to make such a statement in public, I dare to beat him up, that's all."
Seeing Lei Ming's resolute expression, Wenger rubbed his forehead in exasperation. He realized that this question had completely touched Lei Ming's sore spot, which was why he had done something so outrageous.
He had heard about his adoptive mother's unexpected death.
He could only wave his hand and tell Lei Ming to go back to training first, saying he would handle the matter.
Although 272 is a very talented player, it was indeed inappropriate for him, as a public figure, to make such inappropriate remarks. Just as Wenger was thinking about how to deal with the situation with Reming, the owner, Kroenke, called.
“Arsena, deal with 272 seriously immediately. We absolutely cannot be his scapegoats. Arsenal will not allow a player like this to exist.”
"Hold a press conference immediately to acknowledge the team's shortcomings. At the same time, we must give face to the Chinese people and prevent similar incidents from happening again."
Wenger was stunned when he answered the phone. He couldn't understand why his boss was in such a hurry. In his previous plan, he only needed to sever the relationship between the club and the players. After all, they were just a club and had no way or right to control the players' free speech.
In this world, although China is still a wasteland in the field of football, it has always been in a leading position in other aspects. The Kroenke family business attaches great importance to the Chinese sector. If this problem is not handled properly, the losses will be far more than just 272, possibly even more than ten.
"Wait, boss, I think you need to know what just happened at the club. Lei beat him up this morning, and he's been taken to the hospital."
"Oh, is that so? I remember now, Lei Ming's ancestors were from China. That makes perfect sense. Chinese people have always been very united, so it's understandable that he would do something like this. How is that person now?"
Kroenke seemed to be very familiar with the habits of Chinese people, and appeared unfazed. Hearing the other party's tone, Wenger breathed a sigh of relief.
"According to the news that just came back, although his injuries look serious, they are all external injuries and he will recover after a period of rest."
"Alright, you can handle this as you see fit. I believe you can handle it well. Just be mindful of China's attitude."
After receiving instructions from his boss, Wenger had a clear idea of what to do and quickly contacted the team's sporting director to discuss a solution to the problem.
Shortly afterward, Arsenal issued an apology for the inappropriate comments made by 272 and expressed their deepest condolences to the victims.
Because the impact of Lei Ming's actions was well controlled, his punishment was limited to internal team measures: a £50,000 fine and a three-match ban. When Lei Ming learned of this punishment, he couldn't help but smile.
He knew that this was probably just a formality by the club, and that £50,000 was nothing, a fine that was practically nothing.
Following Arsenal's response, the Chinese public overwhelmingly applauded the Gunners' attitude, and Arsenal's fan base surged once again after the signing of Lei Ming.
Six days later, although Arsenal tried their best to cover up the incident of Thunder assaulting someone, they could not escape the noses of the Premier League paparazzi, and the incident was exposed before the match.
West Bromwich Albion's manager was overjoyed to see that his most feared player was not included in the matchday squad, as they were facing Arsenal's next opponent.
