Becoming a football god from Arsenal

Chapter 108 Speed ​​lv4 breakthrough! The ins drainage effect exploded?
On May 5, the team officially went on vacation.

Most of the players and coaching staff left Sheffield and started a wonderful summer break.

During this rare break, Maher and Gilbert stayed in the cottage on Cherry Street, packing their things and preparing to move to London.

"is it necessary?"

Gilbert watched as Maher bought dozens of boxes, wrapped all the trophies, and covered them with a layer of foam. He said tartly, "The materials are very hard and won't break if they fall."

Maher didn't look up at him. He wrapped up the last Golden Boot and put it in the box. "It's necessary."

In total, he won one Player of the Season, one Player of the Half Season, the Golden Boot, the Assist King, five Player of the Month awards, nineteen Player of the Game awards, two hat-trick balls, and one Boxing Day battle ball last season.

It was definitely a fruitful experience!
"Personally, I feel that these judges are sometimes unfair in their awards."

Maher pushed the box to the corner and saw Gilbert next to him turned his head curiously and asked with a bit of complaint: "Is it because one player won too many awards that they will give some awards to other people as compensation?

"In theory, I should have won at least six or seven Championship Player of the Month awards and 25 Player of the Game awards."

Gilbert: “.”

He really had had enough.

He did not win any Player of the Month award this season, but did win two Player of the Game awards. Even so, he was still affected by Maher's map cannon.

"All right."

Maher smiled and stopped teasing him. "I'm going to study the theory questions. I'm going to take the driver's license test tomorrow."

This matter that has been put aside for a long time should now be put on the agenda. After the end of the season, his pockets became fatter and his desire to buy a sports car became stronger.

After investing £3 million into Kevin Strom's Instagram account in March, the remaining balance on his bank card was around £166.

The after-tax salary he has received from then to now should be 24 pounds, and the bonus he received from the team for promotion to the Premier League after tax is 66 pounds. In addition, there are some miscellaneous bonuses for appearances and goals, which add up to about 5 pounds.

It can be said that after a sharp drop in his wealth in March, he quickly returned to the ranks of millionaires.

With this amount of money, it is unlikely to buy a luxurious villa in London, but it would be easy to rent a luxurious villa and buy a sports car!

Get your driver's license in two days!

After returning to London, I went straight to the local Ferrari store, bought the most popular F430 of the season, and drove it up and down for training.

This sports car, which costs more than 100,000 pounds and the top configuration costs just over 200,000 pounds, is undoubtedly the most suitable for his age, status, net worth and wealth growth rate.

Cars like Rolls-Royce are not suitable for his age, and Bugatti and the like are a bit too expensive. He would have to be a little richer before considering it.

At noon on May 5, Maher finished the last section of the road test and went to check the results with a little trepidation.

"Pretty!"

After getting the answer that he passed, he excitedly clenched his fist and asked, "When can I get my driver's license?"

"within a week."

The person in charge recognized Maher and said with a smile: "We will mail it to your home when the time comes, please check it carefully."

"Okay." Maher was not in a hurry. He had already told Wenger that he would return to the team for training after taking his driver's license test in Sheffield and rest for about ten days.

It can be considered as giving myself a few days off, or it can be considered as practicing the skills in the proficiency panel again, raising the speed to level 4, so that I can fully possess the qualities of a fast horse on the wing!

After returning home, he called Mendes and asked him to send someone in London to find him a house.

“It needs to be at least two floors, with more rooms, and even better, a gym.”

He clearly stated his needs, explaining: "I will have to live with two physical therapists, and it would be best if they live on the first floor, and usually complete the physical therapy massage and nutritious meals on the first floor.

"I live on the second floor by myself, which ensures a certain level of privacy and quality of life."

"Okay." Mendes' voice was full of laughter, and he teased, "Are you planning to have a girlfriend? You've talked about privacy and quality of life. What do you think?"

"No."

Maher shook his head slightly, didn't talk about this with him, and changed the subject with a smile: "Try to find a bigger one, the rent is not a problem.

"As long as I don't look for the most expensive ones in London, I think I can afford it and I'm willing to pay for it."

It's not that he is extravagant or trying to show off. It's mainly because in the future, as the team members increase and the physiotherapy becomes more professional, he needs to prepare in advance for the construction of various physiotherapy rooms.

It is best to get the hard space conditions in place at once, and then you can buy other equipment slowly.

"I see. When are we moving?"

"The sooner the better. I only have ten days of vacation. If I don't rent a place, I'll have to stay in a hotel."

"Okay, I'll send you the appropriate options within three days, and you can choose from them yourself then."

After hanging up the phone, Maher returned to his room, took out his mobile phone and opened the social media software.

After Sheffield United won the championship, with many major honors falling on him, his social media fans experienced a surge during this period.

The number of fans on Facebook has exceeded 150 million+, and is increasing by 15+ every day, with a trend of reaching 200 million. The number of fans on Twitter has also increased significantly, and is approaching 150 million+.

I have been so busy these days that I haven’t had time to operate these accounts and haven’t even posted a single message.

"Oh, by the way, Instagram."

After seeing everyone's messages urging him to update his content, Maher suddenly realized that this was an opportunity. A good opportunity to attract traffic to his Instagram account.

He has been doing this for some time and the results are quite good.

According to Kevin Systrom's data, among the new users, 26 of them came specifically for him.

This is already a huge amount of data, which is very important for startup social software!

But...if Maher now posts on Facebook and Twitter, saying that he will post some internal footage of the championship on Instagram, from the players' perspective of the parade.

Taking advantage of this huge wave of popularity, there will surely be unexpected results!
He did what he said, simply edited the video in the album, logged out of Instagram, and then immediately opened Facebook and Twitter to upload the advertising message.

This company can be considered as his own company, and a 10% stake is definitely considered a major shareholder in an Internet enterprise.

If they are still planning to raise funds in the future and Maher has some spare money, he can invest more.

I don't ask for any more shares to be expanded, I just hope that the shares won't be diluted too much in rounds of financing.

If he can keep the double-digit shares, then when Instagram is acquired by Facebook in the future, he will have an income of over 100 million US dollars!
After finishing this, he basically had nothing else to do. Everything was progressing in an orderly manner and he just had to wait patiently for the results.

Next, train hard and quickly reach level 4!
May 5th, in the gym.

Maher completed more than a dozen sets of leg muscle contraction exercises. Through the mirror on the wall, he could notice that his buttocks had become slightly more upturned during this period and his figure had become more sexually attractive.

Of course, it's sexual tension for girls, not boys.

Although this description seems a bit strange, he can understand that this is a physical characteristic of the slowly increasing sprinting explosive power!

Look at those fast-running stars and athletes, they basically have small and perky buttocks.

Is that a raised butt?
No, he became stronger! That night, Maher practiced until after eight o'clock. His legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead. Sometimes, if he lost his strength, he would fall to the ground.

But he still persisted and gritted his teeth to carry out a new set of training.

His speed was on the verge of a breakthrough, and he could feel a completely different feeling bursting out of his body, as if he was approaching the level of extreme human sports and had begun to touch the boundary.

Finally, just after nine o'clock, his legs and buttocks suddenly cramped in many parts at the same time, and the pain was excruciating.

"Hiss!" He lay on the ground with his legs stretched out, and couldn't help but gasp. The feeling of muscle tearing was really hard to bear.

Fortunately, this gym is located at the bottom of their apartment building, and he is the only one there at the moment, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

[Skill: Galloping lv4]

[Proficiency: (1/5000)]

[Effect: Your muscle reaction speed and contraction speed have already approached the human limit, and your running posture and various skills have basically reached the best level. You are only one step away from the strongest human level! ]

gallop!

lv4!

The moment he saw the panel emerge, although Mahel was still fighting the pain from leg cramps, he felt the strongest excitement and satisfaction since he had the proficiency panel.

The world in front of me seems to have changed. The smell of sweat and rust in the gym is gone. Everything has become fresh. The air that enters my nose is fresh, and all the foul air in my body is exhaled!
Physical level 4 ability!

This ability is definitely equivalent to the skill-type level 5, and is definitely more useful than the level 5 of some skills!

When the pain in his body disappeared, Maher propped himself up, took a deep breath, walked two steps, and then raised his legs high for two steps.

All his movements became lighter, and his muscles seemed to contain terrifying energy that was about to penetrate his skin and be released, and his body urged him to sprint!
"Let's find a place to test it tomorrow."

Maher was not in a hurry, his body had reached its limit, so he decided to go home and have Harry do some physical therapy massage.

After the last upgrade, his 11-meter speed was around seconds. He was looking forward to seeing how high his peak speed would be after this upgrade.

Late night in San Francisco.

In an office building, Kevin Strom and Mike and their team arrived, exhausted, and opened the server and management desk to check the latest data.

They had just returned from Manhattan, New York City, and had negotiated a financing plan with venture capital firms for the remaining 15% of the shares. The next step was to wait for the contract to be signed and the payment to be made.

Everyone took this round of financing very seriously, and all the core members of the company participated.

"Yes."

Kevin Strom was still talking to the people over there, smiling: "We don't need to recruit too many people, these core teams are enough, this is my entrepreneurial philosophy.

"Of course. Thank you very much for your trust. This cooperation will definitely be a win-win cooperation."

He had a polite smile on his face and inadvertently turned his head to glance at Mike who was sitting in front of the computer. He found that the other person had an obvious dazed expression on his face, his neck was stretched towards the computer, and he was muttering something.

After hanging up the phone, he came to Mike's side, "What's wrong?"

Mike didn't reply. Kevin Strom leaned on the back of the stool with both hands, looked at the computer in front of him, and saw the column of new users in the European region this week.

There was music playing in the office. He was originally shaking his head, but now he suddenly stood still and his breathing became rapid.

【+59.44! 】

【10日+3.15万、11日+2.19万、12日+8.41万、13日+16.51万、14日+14.39万、15日+11.25万！】

The two looked at each other at this time, both with dull eyes, and saw a very vivid feeling on each other's faces.

What happened? !
"what's the situation?"

"Is there a problem?"

Noticing this, other people in the company also came over, thinking that something had gone wrong, and mentally prepared to work overtime tonight to fix the program.

"No."

Kevin Strom turned around and explained with a shocked smile: "Traffic has suddenly increased dramatically. In the past week, the European region has increased by nearly 60 users."

"Really?"

"God.!"

Everyone was shocked and their faces became excited. They quickly returned to their work positions and started analyzing the data under Mike's instructions.

But, when they noticed the account of 'Mael', they suddenly realized that all the analysis seemed unnecessary.

The number of followers of this account has exceeded 70, and the latest work has received more than 30 likes. Almost one person has consumed all the traffic from the 12th to the 15th!

"he?"

After Mike found out, he was in a state of panic, afraid that he had seen it wrong, and he kept blinking, "He moved all his Facebook and Twitter fans over here?"

Without stopping, he searched the Internet for Maher's recent situation.

Everyone gathered around, and then they saw the news that Sheffield United won the championship and Maher won all three major events, and was praised by the media.

Maher also posted on Facebook and Twitter that he would post the championship record footage on Instagram, which was reposted by major media and heated up the topic.

"So that's it!"

"Ha ha.!"

They thought quickly and figured out the reason for the surge in traffic. They threw their heads back in their seats and laughed, clapping from time to time.

This feeling of being hit by a surprise is a rare emotion for rational and rigorous Silicon Valley men.

"Thanks Mahel."

Kevin Strom was completely convinced. Now it seemed that the decision he made was the right one. "Thank you, Mike. If you hadn't recommended him, I wouldn't have gone to him."

"As long as it works."

Mike was in high spirits. He tapped the table a few times and couldn't help but stand up and high-five his fellow company members to express his joy.

After celebrating for a while, everyone felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't put their finger on it.

Kevin Strom was the first to react, his face changed and he smiled: "In this way, the number of registered people in the European region will exceed one million, and the activity they have driven will bring more registrations in a virtuous circle.

"The company's value has increased! We can no longer raise funds at the original price, we have to raise the price!"

"Yes!" Everyone slammed the table and agreed. The contract had not been signed yet and they were not going to have a problem with the money.

Kevin Strom called the investment institution just now, his tone and attitude were still good, but he was more confident in his words: "I'm sorry, the data on the number of registered people and activity that I gave you before is outdated.

“Now, we have to talk again about the price of financing.”
