The news that Lei Ming, who had just won the World Cup, had transferred to Al-Hilal in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, caused a huge reaction in society. Not only did fans not understand it, but many players, including Cristiano Ronaldo, did not understand it either.
He even called the other party to try to wake him up and prevent him from being blinded by money, but Lei Ming said that he was very clear-headed, more clear-headed than ever before, and he knew very well what he was doing.
Earning 1 billion yuan by lying around for two years? Only a fool wouldn't do that!
Upon hearing Lei Ming's words, Ronaldo could only express his regret.
He felt sorry for Lei Ming, who had such great talent. A player's best years are only a few, yet he went to Saudi Arabia to retire, which was outrageous.
Lei Ming not only received calls from Ronaldo but also from several friends, including Mbappe, Bernardo Silva, and Moutinho. However, he stated that it had nothing to do with the club and that it was a decision he made after careful consideration.
This dispelled the players' desire to speak out on Lei Ming's behalf.
This record-breaking transfer fee has undoubtedly cemented the record for the season's most expensive signing. Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez was furious upon seeing the news, cursing under his breath. These Saudi tycoons with money to burn are truly disliked; they're everywhere, and they're even thinking of buying Ronaldo? Dream on!
This summer in the football world is destined to be anything but peaceful, with a constant stream of news stories keeping netizens on the edge of their seats.
Lei Ming, one of the parties involved, was completely unaffected. He took his girlfriend and her family on a two-month vacation in China before finally arriving in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to report on the situation.
Here, the Saudi prince had already arranged many projects for him, so Lei Ming didn't need to worry about anything in terms of life.
The subsequent medical examination went very smoothly. Although he didn't maintain his training volume during his vacation, he was very disciplined, and all his indicators remained stable, which earned him a thumbs up from the team doctor. He truly deserves to be called the best goalkeeper of the World Cup champions; he is indeed different.
The arrival of Lei Ming has excited the players of Al-Hilal, as almost everyone has seen his performance. Being on the same team as such a fantastic goalkeeper is simply a blessing.
Soon, Lei Ming also proved with his strength that he was not here to retire.
On the day of his debut in Riyadh Crescent, the huge home stadium, which was never usually full, had a highlight moment. Many fans spontaneously organized to come and watch Reming's debut performance, and among them, a third of the fans were of Chinese descent.
If we're talking about which fans are most excited since the team came to the Saudi league, it's undoubtedly the Chinese fans from the neighboring country, besides the Saudi fans, because they finally have the opportunity to watch Thunder's amazing performance up close.
Every thunderous save earned cheers from the entire stadium, and even many opponents would offer their warmest applause.
His arrival was undoubtedly a game-changer. In the tenth round of the Saudi competition, he was almost undefeated and stood out from the crowd. Except for one game where he drew because his teammates were really not good enough and couldn't even score a goal, Al-Hilal's performance was truly invincible.
The prestige of the world's best goalkeeper team continues to rise at this moment, which is amazing. No matter what kind of shot you take, you just can't score. Lei Ming's clean sheet record is far ahead.
Meanwhile, the new season in European football is in full swing. At the beginning of the season, many people may have felt sorry that Lei Ming was not in one of the top five leagues. However, after the season started, almost everyone gradually chose to forget about him. It is indeed distasteful for many fans that someone so young would go to Saudi Arabia to make money.
However, six months later, the sudden emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic made fans all over the world exclaim that Thunder was simply God's favorite, and he really did achieve the level of making money while lying down.
Sports events around the world have been put on hold; not only are matches suspended, but even leaving the house is impossible.
Upon learning of the outbreak in his hometown, Lei Ming immediately donated 100 million euros to China through his partner, Tang Wanqiu, hoping to do his part to help his compatriots in China get out of the predicament as soon as possible.
This undoubtedly further enhanced and elevated his reputation in China.
In the face of the pandemic, Lei Ming received remote guidance from the Taoist priest. Not only did he frequently burn mugwort on all four sides of his home to drive away the virus, but he also had various Chinese herbal medicines recommended by the Taoist priest for self-defense.
In addition, the accommodations in Saudi Arabia are generally quite spacious.
While others were terrified of the ferocious COVID-19, this family treated it like a vacation. Although they couldn't go out, they maintained their daily routines without interruption. They lived their lives as usual, trained as usual, and swam as usual.
No one expected that this sudden pandemic would last so long, and it wasn't until June of the following year that major European leagues gradually resumed play.
Lei Ming, after playing for half a year and then resting for half a year, received another huge sum of money, with his salary of 1 billion euros for the second year of his contract arriving in his account.
Saudi tycoons really don't treat money like money; they'll transfer money to you on time even if they're just lying around, which is something Lei Ming really likes.
Meanwhile, the Saudi league is gradually resuming, but because the pandemic has not completely ended in other countries, the schedule for the AFC Champions League has not yet been finalized, which inevitably makes many Chinese fans who cannot travel to Saudi Arabia feel regretful.
