Chapter 430: The Embarrassment of a Tsundere Girl

Ever since an unknown senior executive of the Oriental Mobile monopoly company, a giant in the ancient Oriental telecommunications industry, broke the news that Wang Li would be attending the mobile company's business event on July 4, other companies in the ancient Oriental country that have contracts with Wang Li also immediately jumped out to publicize the event.

Originally, these companies were planning to keep a low profile, but seeing this, it seems that there are many benefits to promoting in advance. At least the popularity of their own brands will increase a lot.

So, the fans were excited!!

During this period, since Chelsea won four championships, Wang Li's reputation has long surpassed the popular David Beckham. Wang Li's Chinese name also gives fans a feeling of being close to the heart, which makes many people fascinated by Wang Li and become his loyal fans.

Some of these fanatical fans are planning to go to a certain place to find a chance to meet Wang Li in person, so that they may have the chance to talk to him or even ask for his autograph?

Many people hold this idea, so those companies that have contracts with Wang Li have fully tapped into this potential commercial value. They have revealed in a half-concealed manner what time and where Wang Li will appear.

However, some small companies also followed suit. Although they did not sign any commercial sponsorship contracts with Wang Li, they could disclose it "secretly". The result of such disclosure would certainly make people suspicious, but some people would believe it. The company headquarters would not come out to clarify and explain. In this way, many fans would remember the name of their company, which is simply the best free advertising! !

As a result, false news came out, which greatly affected the fans' judgment on Wang Li's travel plan.

However, the initial information was still recorded by someone, and after careful analysis, Wang Li’s first stop was revealed.

Shanghai!!

Wang Li will arrive at Shanghai Pudong International Airport at 11:30 am on July 1st.

As soon as this news came out, it was analyzed by many onlookers, and many people came to the same conclusion! Never underestimate the Chinese people's ability to speculate. Their analysis of people and things has reached a state of perfection. I am afraid that no one in the world can do better than the Chinese in this regard.

In 2005, the Internet had spread to most parts of China. As soon as this news came out, it was recognized by many fans. The first post was pushed to more than 20,000 floors, setting a record for that small BBS website. In the past few days, the traffic of that website has also skyrocketed. This small Internet company is even considering giving some rewards to the guys who posted.

These are all off-topic. In short, after being promoted on the Internet, almost everyone knows the news.

At this critical moment, the media giant of the ancient oriental country, the Central Court Wutai, which has always been known as the Invincible East, released a confirmed news: Wang Li, who has just joined Real Madrid, will arrive in Shanghai on July 1 and participate in at least seven days of advertising and commercial activities, and Real Madrid Club will arrive in the capital Beijing on July 13 to start its official journey to the East.

The host of the sports news on the court TV commented on this: "...Since Real Madrid's travel plan and Wang Li's advertising and commercial activities are scheduled to coincide, Wang Li is likely to stay in the ancient oriental country for half a month, and then meet with his Real Madrid teammates to carry out related activities of the Asian tour together."

After hearing this news, all the fans were even more excited. Regardless of whether other news was true or false, it was definitely true that Wang Li would be in Shanghai on July 1. This news made the fans' wish to meet Wang Li in person come true. After June 25, many fans rushed to Shanghai, and for a time, Pudong International Airport almost experienced a Spring Festival travel rush, because many fans stayed there, waiting for time to pass slowly, and they did not want to miss any opportunity.

The news from the Imperial TV station was very accurate, and the fans' speculation was also correct. Wang Li would indeed go to Pudong International Airport on July 1st. However, he was not going there for any business activities. He just wanted to go there because he had a basketball team in Zhejiang that could participate in the CBA, and he just wanted to go and take a look. After all, the team belonged to him, and it was a good place to stay.

His business activities officially began on July 3rd. From that day on, he would travel to four cities in succession within seven days, namely: Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen and Chengdu. Finally, he would cross half of China to Hong Kong to participate in a fan meeting event to increase his influence in Hong Kong.

Wang Li was quite reluctant about this trip. In fact, he still hoped to have the free time he had last summer. Last year, he had almost nothing to do. He just visited the ancient oriental country with his father and mother and returned to his hometown in Sichuan. Although it was not a good memory, it was indeed very free, wasn't it?

But this summer, he has to participate in a series of business activities. After that, he will follow the team to participate in friendly matches in East Asia. This intensive schedule makes people feel too busy.

You know, he has been busy for a whole season.

Fortunately, after the team completes the East Asian tour, there is still more than half a month of rest time, and he does not have to participate in the first half of the next season. Thinking of this, he will feel better.

However, he did not dare to complain to Rita about these things. After all, that woman did everything for his own good. And thinking about how charming she was during sex, Wang Li was always "out of shape" when he saw her, so he was reluctant to complain.

As early as May this year, the Spanish media broke the news that Real Madrid would have a plan for a trip to East Asia in the summer. In this regard, many media commented that Florentino would take the Real Madrid superstars on another money-making trip.

"...They don't think about improving in terms of competition, but are always thinking about how to make more money. No wonder they can never beat Barcelona. This is the fundamental reason. I hope they can continue like this, so that Barcelona will have one less competitor every season. It would be a good feeling..." --- a report from a Catalan reporter.

However, although this report was sensational, it was just a lot of thunder and little rain. The Real Madrid Club did not confirm the news at all, nor did it deny it. This caused many media to speculate, and the media of the ancient Eastern country did not dare to publish such reports that mixed true and false in newspapers and magazines.

But in fact, the media in Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong had already started reporting on this event crazily as early as May. The media in these countries were not afraid that Real Madrid would shelve the plan after the reporting, because they did not need to consider the ideas of the upper class. As long as the reporting could attract readers' attention, it was enough.

If Real Madrid really shelved their plans, they can say: It's not that our report is untrue, but that Real Madrid changed its schedule at the last minute.

But in fact, Real Madrid has been negotiating with economic companies related to Southeast Asia and East Asia recently. They need to sell the full agency for this trip to East Asia.

This negotiation was ongoing before Wang Li joined Real Madrid. Real Madrid required an appearance fee of 2 million euros per game in the ancient oriental country, Japan and South Korea, and 1.5 million euros per game in Hong Kong and Thailand.

The price is really too high, which has made many large economic companies wait and see. Although Real Madrid has six superstars, with such high appearance fees, plus some sponsorship contracts, it is too difficult to make back the cost.

Therefore, even the Real Madrid club is hesitant about Real Madrid's trip to the East this summer. If they want to go to the East, they must negotiate this sponsorship.

However, all this was solved after the news of Wang Li joining Real Madrid was confirmed.

After Wang Li signed a formal contract with Real Madrid, Real Madrid directly increased his appearance fee in the ancient oriental countries, Japan and South Korea to 4 million euros per game, while his appearance fee in Hong Kong and Thailand was also increased to 3 million euros per game.

The exit price was directly doubled. Any company that wanted to fully accept the arrangement of this Eastern trip would have to prepare at least 30 million euros. Even with so much money invested, it would not be easy to make back the cost.

However, this time, economic companies in Southeast Asia and East Asia began to compete for it, and they all regretted not signing the contract in advance!

Through the publicity of the Imperial Court TV, Wang Li's own performance, and his East Asian appearance, his influence in East Asian countries is growing day by day. As long as Wang Li participates in Real Madrid's trips, it is conservatively estimated that the number of fans participating will at least increase by three times.

Moreover, Wang Li's own skills alone are a major attraction for fans. Many fans are willing to spend money to watch the game or participate in related activities with the mentality of watching the world's number one star.

Therefore, these hesitant companies immediately began to compete for the operating rights in a bidding manner.

After two days of competition, the Southeast Asian Economic Company won. They bought the operating rights of this event for a price of no less than 30 million euros. What Real Madrid has to do is to go to East Asia to participate in at least five friendly matches. For one more match, the Southeast Asian Economic Company will pay an additional 2 million euros.

Despite the high cost, Southeast Asian economic companies still estimate that they can make money this time. After Real Madrid Club comes to East Asia, they can recover their costs by selling Real Madrid's training broadcasting rights, game naming rights, game billboards, press conference interview rights, agency for various commercial activities, and even Real Madrid players' jerseys, shoes and signatures for games.

All of these can be turned into real money.

Moreover, the top management of Southeast Asian Economic Company believes that even if they cannot recover all the costs this time, it will still be extremely beneficial to the publicity of their company. If this potential commercial value is taken into account, 30 million euros to purchase the operating rights is definitely a worthwhile investment.

At this time, the Economic Department of Real Madrid was overjoyed. They had previously carried out related tours to the East and Americas, but each time they only earned less than 10 million euros. This time, the income was several times higher. This was indeed a way to make money!

However, thinking about the salary of the black-haired boy, 30 million euros was only his first year's salary. This made them heartbroken. The money earned from a commercial activity that they had worked so hard to negotiate was not even enough for a player's salary. This result was really puzzling.

At 9:20 pm on June 30th, London time, Wang Li, Rita and a Real Madrid accompanying staff member boarded a passenger plane at London Airport and headed for Shanghai.

Wang Li planned to keep a low profile this time, so they only booked an ordinary passenger flight from London at night. Due to the time difference, they arrived at Shanghai International Airport at around seven in the morning. They thought that this time was still early, and as long as Wang Li covered himself up a little, he would not be recognized by fans and reporters, thus saving a lot of trouble.

This passenger plane was a large one. There were three groups of seats in the first-class cabin, with six seats in each row. Wang Li's seat was next to Rita, while the staff member sat in another row.

Even on the plane, Wang Li only took off his hat but not his sunglasses. This was to cover up a little and reduce unnecessary trouble. After all, the fewer people who knew about his visit to Shanghai, the better. This way he could keep a low profile and it would be convenient for him to do anything.

Cai Yilin is also very low-key.

She just returned to Shanghai from London today to shoot a commercial, and then fly to Hong Kong to prepare for this year's concert. At this moment, she was with her agent, talking about something with each other.

Cai Yilin has always been confident in her charm. After becoming a big star, she has become accustomed to the feeling of being sought after by everyone. This feeling fascinates her.

This time, she was preparing for a concert to be held in Hong Kong. The pre-publicity for the concert was very good and she was looking forward to it. She happened to be on the same plane with Wang Li and sat opposite Wang Li.

Ever since she got on the plane and sat down, Cai Yilin had been staring at the black-haired boy opposite her, because he looked very handsome, but for some reason, he always wore sunglasses.

In London, Cai Yilin's influence is so low that she doesn't have to worry about being recognized, so she dresses very beautifully and doesn't cover her face. However, she is very confident in her popularity in the ancient oriental country. She thinks that at least most of the young people in the ancient oriental country know her.

But this handsome boy is definitely an exception!

Cai Yilin thought that the boy was Chinese. She was sure of that because he spoke to the flight attendant in standard Chinese. It was very standard. It was definitely not the way a foreigner learning Chinese would speak. But when the two looked at each other, the boy turned around and talked to a European woman next to him, completely ignoring her.

Cai Yilin had too many feelings about the fact that the boy didn't know her. After all, this was normal. But the boy glanced at her and turned his head away without paying any attention, which made Cai Yilin very conflicted. This was a denial of her charm!

"Who is he? Why is he wearing sunglasses on the plane?" At this time, Cai Yilin became curious. A woman's curiosity can kill a cat, let alone a woman who is a little sensitive.

So, under the surprised gaze of her agent, Cai Yilin walked to Wang Li's side, opened her big eyes and stared at him, and asked, "Sir, why are you wearing sunglasses?"

Wang Li turned his head in confusion, thinking timidly, would he be recognized if he wore sunglasses on the plane? However, after hearing what the woman said, he breathed a sigh of relief, pointed at his eyes, and said casually, "Oh, here, here."

He was just dealing with it and had no mood to deal with this woman.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. Excuse me."

After hearing this explanation, Cai Yilin spoke a little hurriedly, but she was secretly delighted in her heart: it turned out that the boy was blind, not that her charm was not good enough.

But when she returned to her seat, Cai Yilin began to wonder. The boy opposite her didn't look blind at all, because he was flipping through a magazine in his hand...

This made Cai Yilin confused again: It turns out that he was just dealing with me!

She began to doubt her own charm: Am I not as good as that European woman? However, out of confidence, she immediately shook off this thought and turned to Wang Li, whispering: "Huh, you still think you are a big star? Wearing sunglasses on the plane, pretending."

This sentence was referring to Wang Li, because among the 18 people in the first-class cabin, Wang Li was the only one wearing sunglasses.

Wang Li had been very alert. He glanced across and saw the arrogant woman's posture. He felt a little strange: this woman seemed to be in her twenties, and her appearance was quite attractive, but it seemed that this had nothing to do with him. What did it have to do with her if he wore sunglasses?

Wang Li was too lazy to pay attention to her, so he lowered his head and went back to reading the magazine.

This made Cai Yilin even more conflicted. She kept staring at Wang Li and kept uttering all kinds of curses. In fact, she wanted to take off the sunglasses of the black-haired boy to see what he looked like.

Unfortunately, this idea was not realized until the plane landed at Pudong International Airport.

Wang Li and his team were indeed very low-key, but they did not expect the fans' enthusiasm! !

Although many sources claimed that he would arrive in Shanghai at around 11 o'clock that day, many fans were afraid of missing the time and started waiting at the airport pick-up area from early in the morning, which made the airport crowded for a while. These fans kept staring at every passenger getting off the airport, for fear of missing Wang Li and his group.

When Wang Li just got off the plane and entered the passenger passage, he saw at least a thousand fans gathered in front of him. Some of them were wearing Chelsea No. 21 jerseys, and some were wearing Real Madrid jerseys. Many fans were holding signs that read "Welcome Wang Li to China."

Wang Li smiled bitterly. It seemed that it was almost impossible to walk out of the airport in a low-key manner!

At this time, I don’t know if it was intentional, but Cai Yilin and her agent were walking behind Wang Li and his group. When she saw how lively the airport was, she thought it was her fans who came to pick her up.

This made her feel happy, and at the same time she turned around and glared at Wang Li. Her eyes seemed to say: You don’t know what’s good, I’m so popular!

So, in her joy, she took two steps forward, walked through the passage ahead of time, and then waved to the fans---

No response.

She waved again---

Still no response.

Awkwardness spread...

Only then did she realize that everyone had automatically ignored her and turned their eyes to the position behind her.
