Chapter 400 Lin Quan is on the hot search on Weibo
When the news that Spain was going to play a friendly match with the Chinese national football team came out, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
Spain is currently the undisputed overlord in football, while the Chinese national team is an absolute underdog that can barely make it past the World Cup qualifiers.
In recent years, as the performance of the Chinese national football team has continued to deteriorate, two years ago there was a tragic loss to the Thai team at 1:5.
This has led the outside world, especially European football, to view China as a football desert.
Although China has a large population, larger than the whole of Europe combined.
But the number of registered players in China may not be as good as that of a small European country.
Playing chess with such a bad chess player will not only fail to provide any training effect, but will lower your own level.
Therefore, the major football powers are not very keen on warming up with the Chinese national team.
Especially for the world champion Spain, as long as they are willing, countries that want to arrange friendly matches with them will line up for several miles.
There is absolutely no need for them to play a friendly match with a third-rate team like the Chinese national team.
But there is no way, the other party gave too much!
Not only did Spain accept the invitation from the Chinese national football team, it also went all out and came to China with its full main lineup.
On June 12, the plane carrying the entire Spanish team arrived in China.
A large number of fans and reporters had found out about the Spanish team's itinerary early on, so they all rushed to the airport to pick them up.
The entire reception hall was packed with people, and countless fans were wearing various jerseys, including Spain's red jerseys, Manchester City's sky blue jerseys, Real Madrid's white jerseys, and Barcelona's red and blue jerseys.
The fans are not really fans of the Spanish team. Perhaps they like one or several players in the Spanish team more.
For example, Lin Quan, Xiaobai, Casillas, Ramos and so on.
Among this colorful crowd, there were several people wearing the green uniforms of Werder Bremen.
Needless to say, these people are definitely Lin Quan's fans.
The reporters didn't care about that. They set up their cameras and were ready for action.
Prepare to take a 360-degree photo of the entire Spanish team. Of course, others can just take a few photos, but Lin Quan will take more.
After all, he had been missing in Europe for almost a week.
The outside world is curious about where he has gone. This time, news came out that Spain will have a friendly match with the Chinese national team. The outside world is curious whether Lin Quan will appear.
The result disappointed them and countless fans at the scene.
Lin Quan was not on the special plane to Spain! "Isn't Emperor Lin here?"
"Damn, if Emperor Lin doesn't come, then wouldn't I lose a lot of money on the tickets I bought from the scalper at a high price?"
Although the game will be held in the Bird's Nest, which can accommodate 100,000 fans.
But the number of domestic fans is far beyond imagination.
The tickets released by the organizer were sold out immediately after they were sold out.
Unable to buy tickets on the official website, fans can only reluctantly buy them from scalpers.
Damn it, I don’t know where these scalpers got the tickets. Not only are they in stock, but you can even choose your seats. Some people even bought consecutive seats.
Although it is painful to buy tickets from scalpers at high prices, it is a great pleasure to enjoy the performance of World Cup champions like Spain at home, especially to appreciate the graceful playing style of the number one football player Lin Quan up close.
This made many fans who couldn't go abroad to watch the game feel very satisfied, but now that Lin Quan didn't come with the Spanish team at all, they felt cheated! "RNM, return the money!"
"Organizers, give us our money back. There's no Lin Huang on the Spanish team, so what's the point of watching it?"
For a time, there were constant protests on the Internet and in real life. Countless fans, especially those who bought high-priced tickets, were outraged and felt that their feelings were deceived.
Although there are many stars in the Spanish team, most of them are there for Lin Quan.
If Lin Quan wasn't among them, they wouldn't want to be the scapegoat! The organizer, Xingyao Group, was in a very bad situation and had to send people to the Spanish team to inquire about the situation.
"Coach Tony, you didn't lie to us, did you? Will Lin Quan really come?"
Zhang Shan, the deputy general manager of Xingyao Group, asked anxiously, Lin Quan is the protagonist, and the show will not be able to proceed without him.
Coach Tony nodded: "Of course, we have communicated with him, and he is on his way to the team gathering point!"
Manager Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Coach Tony's words.
So they quickly sent someone back to do public relations and inform the fans that Lin Quan was on the way and would definitely appear in the Bird's Nest.
After learning the news, the fans breathed a sigh of relief.
However, many people still expressed doubts: "What do you think? Could this be a trick by the organizers? They clearly didn't come, but they lied to us that he did. They wanted to keep us calm and prevent us from refunding our tickets, and then trick us into the stadium?"
"No way? Doesn't Spain train before the game? As long as they start training, won't we know whether Lin Huang is here or not?"
"That makes sense, but will it be too late to refund the ticket by then?"
…
Just when the outside world was discussing this, Lin Quan, who had been silent for a long time, finally posted something.
He posted on both Twitter and Weibo: It feels so good to ride the high-speed rail!
The dynamic content also comes with a video, which is a video of a coin standing on the window sill of a high-speed train and remaining standing despite the high-speed train running at high speed.
On Twitter, after Lin Quan posted his update, a large number of fans immediately commented: "Fuck! Emperor Lin is back from the dead!"
"Emperor Lin finally posted something. He's been gone for almost a week!"
"Brothers, Lin Huang's IP address shows that he is in China. It seems that he really went to China to participate in a friendly match!"
"So he went to China. No wonder I haven't seen him for so long!"
"By the way, is this China's high-speed rail? It looks so advanced!"
"Look at the video that Lin Huang sent. The speed of this high-speed train has reached 350 kilometers per hour, which is faster than most of our high-speed trains in Europe!"
"Haha, it's not only faster, it's also more stable. Look, this coin didn't fall over from beginning to end!"
"Could it be glued on?"
Just as someone raised this question, we saw in the video Lin Quan reached out to take the coin down, showed it to the camera, and then moved it to another position and stood it up again. The coin still stood firm.
"Haha, Emperor Lin predicted your prediction!"
"This slap in the face came quickly and accurately!"
Due to Lin Quan’s extremely high popularity, his video has made many people re-acquainted with China’s high-speed rail.
Some official domestic accounts on Twitter also took this opportunity to repost Lin Quan's post and also took the opportunity to advertise and invite tourists from all over the world to visit China.
In addition to posting this video, Lin Quan also posted some local videos in every place he visited during his subsequent trips to China, allowing foreigners who don't know much about China to see the real China, a China without the hellish filter of foreign media.
On Weibo, Lin Quan’s Weibo post was posted using a new account.
When it was first sent out, no one paid attention. After all, there are plenty of new accounts on Weibo.
Even if he claimed to be Lin Quan, no one believed him.
Nowadays, there are too many people pretending to be celebrities. This 'Lin Quan' doesn't even have a verified Weibo account, so it's weird to trust him.
But when someone saw on Twitter that the content he posted was exactly the same as the content on Weibo, this Weibo post immediately became popular.
The number of comments and conversions below continued to rise rapidly, and the popularity quickly surpassed that of a certain artist named Wang, and jumped onto the Weibo hot search list.
Affected by this, the number of followers of Lin Quan's account also increased rapidly.
Only half a day after he posted this Weibo, his number of followers exceeded 5 million.

Moreover, as this Weibo post was on the hot search list, more and more fans were attracted to it, and the number of followers increased at an increasingly faster rate.
Weibo also initially thought that Lin Quan's account was a fake account, so they didn't pay much attention to it.
But when they saw the number of followers of this account quickly exceeded 100,000, 1 million, or even 5 million, they realized the seriousness of the matter.
So, after finding out that the owner of this account was really Lin Quan himself, they quickly helped Lin Quan to get celebrity certification.
With this official certification, some fans who had doubts before instantly threw away all their concerns, and the growth rate of the number of fans further accelerated.
That evening, when Lin Quan, Guardiola and others arrived in the capital, the number of followers of his newly opened Weibo account had exceeded 15 million.
Although this number is not particularly large, there are many celebrities in China who have more followers on Weibo than Lin Quan, and some of them even have over 100 million.
However, the speed of increasing the number of followers from zero to 15 million in one day is unprecedented.
Moreover, unlike those stars, Lin Quan did not use any means to buy the so-called zombie fans.
Most of his fans are real people, which can be seen from the comments and number of reposts under his tweets.
Under Lin Quan’s only Weibo post, the number of comments has exceeded 1 million, and the number of reposts has exceeded 500,000.
The fan activity level is much higher than those stars with hundreds of millions of fans.
Of course, I can't compare with a certain artist named Lu. After all, his Weibo post has 12 million comments. I can't afford to offend him! Capital, Xingyao Sports Culture Co., Ltd.
Wang Hai, the chairman of Xingyao, has just received calls from CEOs of several domestic companies. After seeing Lin Quan's influence and appeal in the country, these CEOs immediately wanted to cooperate with Lin Quan.
However, they had no connection with Lin Quan and could not find the contact information of the other party's agent.
So they wanted to see if they could use Xingyao's cooperation with the Spanish national team to facilitate their cooperation with Lin Quan.
The benefits promised by the other party were considerable and Wang Hai was quite tempted.
So they called Zhang Shan, who was organizing this friendly match, over and gave him the task.
"Boss Wang, I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle. Lin Quan's endorsement fee is not low. These companies are clearly trying to get him for free."
Zhang Shan scoffed at these people's ideas. Do they think that this is a domestic player, so easy to control? "Haha, I don't think this thing can succeed. I mainly want to take this opportunity to get in touch with Lin Quan!"
Wang Hai smiled and said, "Our domestic market is so big, and Lin Quan happens to be a Chinese player. Compared with other European players, he has a better prospect in the domestic market. In this case, do we need to assign a domestic economic team?"
"Mr. Wang, what do you mean?"
Zhang Shan was stunned for a moment and looked at Wang Hai in amazement.
"Haha, I want to cooperate with him and help him contact domestic business cooperation."
Xingyao Group is not one of the strongest companies in China that operates sports and cultural businesses. Compared with the truly top companies, they can only be regarded as a rising star, with insufficient qualifications and a narrow business scope.
However, their boss is smart, has a good vision, and is very market-savvy.
In Wang Hai's opinion, Lin Quan is not only young but also very powerful.
If we can establish good relationships with such people, it will be much smoother to conduct business in Europe in the future.
If they could establish in-depth cooperation with Lin Quan, it would undoubtedly be of great help in improving their group's business.
As expected of Mr. Wang, he can actually see such a business opportunity.
Zhang Shan was very impressed and gladly accepted the task.
Go visit Lin Quan immediately!
As the organizer of the event and a loyal fan of Lin Quan, Zhang Shan met Lin Quan smoothly.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, I'm Zhang Shan from Xingyao, and this is my business card!"
Zhang Shan didn't waste any words and stated his purpose directly.
Lin Quan was a little surprised after listening to this. Wang Hai was indeed a very smart person.
He had indeed never thought about this issue before. Whether it was business in Europe or business in Asia, Lin left it all to his agent Perez to handle.
He seldom asks about it himself! After all, Perre's agency is relatively small and his network of contacts is not very deep.
Therefore, most of the business he could get was from Europe and Asia. Unless the other party took the initiative to come to them to seek cooperation, like a certain Wei, they hardly took the initiative to expand.
This is not entirely Pere's fault, it's mainly because Lin Quan is more indifferent to business matters.
He doesn't really like attending commercial events everywhere. Daily training and competitions are tiring enough, and wasting time shooting commercials and participating in commercial events everywhere would make him feel even more tormented.
However, no one will go against money if the price offered by the other party is appropriate and the content of the cooperation is relatively easy.
Then Lin Quan doesn’t mind making some extra money!
The domestic market is developing very fast, and every year a large number of companies spend huge amounts of money to sponsor the World Cup.
Therefore, the business prospects here are very broad, and the sponsors are also very generous in paying! It just so happens that Pere has no way to handle the business here in China. If there is someone in China who is willing to help him manage this business, Lin Quan will naturally be more than happy.
Therefore, he agreed to Zhang Shan's proposal and promised to meet with Xingyao's Wang Hai after the friendly match.
Before that, he needs to understand the other party's strength and background first.
