Chapter 1863 Master 2

The Taipei night sky was lit up by neon lights, and a gentle breeze carrying the salty scent of the sea swept across the stadium.

The friendly match has just ended, with Xihong City FC defeating Taipei United 2-1.

Throughout the match, Suning made numerous crucial saves, denying three sure-fire goals.

When the final whistle blew, the entire stadium rose to their feet and applauded, with shouts of "Wang Duoyu" echoing throughout the stadium.

"Old Wang! You were fucking amazing today!" Li Wei rushed over and grabbed Su Ning. "You even managed to save that volley shot?"

Su Ning smiled, took off his gloves, and sweat dripped down his chin.

Three years have passed, and he has grown from a questionable "elderly substitute" to an indispensable starting goalkeeper for the team.

The media calls him the "golden goalkeeper," while fans prefer to call him the "goalkeeper god."

He looked up at the stands and suddenly noticed a hunched figure in the VIP box...

An old man wearing a baseball cap was leaning on a cane, staring intently at him.

That look in his eyes inexplicably sent a shiver down his spine.

In the locker room after the game, the teammates were still excitedly discussing the victory celebration dinner that evening.

"I heard that Taipei's nightclubs are even wilder than those in Xihong City!" Zhang Hao winked.

"We're not leaving until we're drunk tonight!" Li Wei had already started changing his clothes.

Suning declined the invitation and walked alone towards the players' tunnel.

Just as he turned the corner, a middle-aged man in a sharp suit stopped him, but the boyish air about him made him very uncomfortable.

"Mr. Wang Duoyu?" The man bowed slightly. "My master wishes to see you."

"Who is your master?"

The man didn't answer directly, but instead handed over a gold-embossed business card—Jin Kairui, Chairman of the Wang Group.

"this is my name card."

Suning's pupils constricted slightly.

Wang Group is a real estate and insurance giant in Taiwan, a super conglomerate with a market value of hundreds of billions.

"plz follow me."

The VIP box was dimly lit.

The old man in the baseball cap was sitting in a wheelchair with a blanket covering his knees.

Upon seeing Su Ning enter, he shakily removed his hat, revealing a face covered in age spots yet still sharp.

"So much like...so much like..." the old man murmured to himself, tears welling up in his cloudy eyes.

Jim Carrey stood to the side and said softly, "Old Wang, the person has been brought."

The old man stretched out his hand, trembling: "Child... come here and let me take a look..."

Suning approached hesitantly.

Upon closer inspection, the old man was emaciated, but his features bore a striking resemblance to his own.

"you are……?"

"Wang Duoyu, I'm your second uncle!" The old man suddenly became excited and grabbed Su Ning's hand. "Wang Zongyao! Your grandfather Wang Zongsheng's younger brother!"

Suning was stunned, but the story still unfolded as scheduled.

Wang Zongyao?

That legendary insurance tycoon who was said to be incredibly wealthy?

The key figure in the movie who inherits a 30 billion yuan fortune?
“Impossible…” Su Ning subconsciously took a step back. “My parents passed away a long time ago, and I’ve never heard them mention it…”

“That’s because…” Wang Zongyao coughed violently, and Jim Carrey quickly handed him a handkerchief, which was stained with blood. “Because our Wang family… has a reason why we can’t acknowledge each other… They probably all think I’m dead.”

Jim Carrey took a stack of documents out of his briefcase.

DNA test report, old photos of my second uncle and grandfather from back then...

Su Ning looked at the wealthy second master in front of her with a puzzled expression and asked, "Second Master, why are you only recognizing me now?"

Wang Zongyao's tears finally fell: "The doctor said I... have at most three months left..."

Silence fell over the private room.

Outside the window, Taipei's night view is as dazzling as a sea of ​​stars, but it cannot illuminate the old man's withered face.

Jim Carrey cleared his throat: "What Mr. Wang means is... he hopes you can inherit his business, and you are also his only heir in this world."

"How much property exactly?" Su Ning asked instinctively.

“Three hundred and seventy-two billion RMB in cash,” Jim Carrey paused, “and a 28% stake in the Wang Group.”

This number made Suning's legs go weak.

Even though I was mentally prepared, hearing it in person still felt like a dream.

It's important to know that this time, Su Ning couldn't use the spatial world, so he was basically no different from an ordinary person.

So three years of poverty made him yearn for wealth again and want to experience a life of extravagance.

"Are there conditions?"

Wang Zongyao revealed an approving look: "Smart... First, you must be adopted into my family, recognize me as your grandfather, and take care of me in my old age and see me off in my final days; second..." The old man suddenly smiled slyly, "You must spend one billion within Xihong City within a month!"

"what?"

Jim Carrey, standing to the side, helplessly explained to Su Ning, "The old man wants to see if you have any business acumen... The money must be spent legally, not donated, and not squandered maliciously..."

“…” Su Ning was both amused and exasperated.

This familiar scene...

But he is no longer the nouveau riche in the movie who was worried about spending money.

"Second Uncle," he crouched down, looking directly into the old man's cloudy eyes, "I'm a professional player now, I have my own career..."

"Silly boy!" Wang Zongyao coughed anxiously. "With this money... you can buy the entire league! You can build the best youth training camp in the world! You can realize all your football dreams!"

This statement struck Suning like a heavy blow.

Yes!

If such funding were available...

Will Chinese football be different?
It was late at night when I left the stadium.

Neon lights flickered on the streets of Taipei as Suning wandered aimlessly.

Fragments of my three-year professional career flashed through my mind...

Zhuang Qiang, a brother from the Da Xiang team, made his debut for Xi Hong FC, and those all-out saves...

My phone vibrated; it was a message from Zhuang Qiang.
[I saw the news! Your saves tonight were absolutely awesome! When are you coming back to Xihong City? Your buddies will celebrate with you!]

The simple and unpretentious words brought tears to Suning's eyes.

This is real life, not about 30 billion dollars or family feuds, but about the purest struggle and friendship on the football field.

He looked up at the starry sky and suddenly smiled.

"system."

【exist】

"If I accept the inheritance... will I still be able to play football?"

[Changes to the main storyline of the instance world detected... New quests are being generated...]

[Ultimate Mission: Change Your Life with Wealth]

[Reward: Legendary Goalkeeper Career Extension Card (+10 years of peak performance)] Suning took a deep breath and dialed Jim Carrey's number:

"Tell Second Master... I accept."

"Smart! But your second uncle and I will keep an eye on you."

Three days later, at Xihong City International Airport.

At the foot of the private jet's steps, Wang Zongyao sat in a wheelchair, watching Su Ning, dressed in a suit, slowly walk towards him.

"Grandson, have you thought this through?"

Su Ning nodded and took out a pair of goalkeeper gloves from his suit pocket: "But there's a condition... I must train three days a week."

The old man laughed heartily, his laughter startling a flock of white doves: "Good grandson! This is the true offspring of the Wang family!"

Under the sunlight, the shadows of the old man and the young man were stretched very long.

A fortune of 30 billion, an unfulfilled football dream, and a brand new life about to begin...

It all started with an old pair of gloves.

……

Today, Suning has become a superstar in the Chinese football world. However, with fame comes controversy, and many of Suning's past scandals have been exposed.

Suning had just finished his morning training session when his phone was bombarded with missed calls and messages from his agent.

He frowned and opened Weibo, only to find that topics such as #WangDuoyu'sDarkHistory#, #GoalkeeperGoesCrazy#, and #TheNumberOneComedianInTheFootballWorld# dominated the top five trending topics.

"What's going on?" He dialed his agent's number.

"Old Wang, you're famous! No, you're famous again!" The agent's voice was filled with a strange excitement. "Someone dug up all your 'dark history' from your time with the Da Xiang team!"

The first to break the news was a long post on a well-known football forum: "Unveiling the unknown past of Wang Duoyu, the golden goalkeeper."

The post, complete with pictures and text, showcased Wang Duoyu's "glorious deeds" before he became famous at Suning:
1. Biting incident on the field: Five years ago, during an amateur league match, Wang Duoyu, who was then a substitute for the Da Xiang team, bit the calf of the opposing striker because the striker maliciously stepped on his fingers.

In the video, when the young Wang Duoyu was sent off with a red card, he grimaced and yelled at the referee, "He stepped on me first! This is self-defense!"

2. Career as a nude model: During his two-year ban from competition, Wang Duoyu, who was destitute, worked as a nude model to make a living.

The post exposing the issue even included several blurry photos of the art studio…

The painting depicts Wang Duoyu naked in a thinker pose, with his private parts cleverly covered by a soccer ball.

3. Human Sushi Platter: The most shocking thing is that he once worked as a "human sushi" model when he worked at a Japanese restaurant.

In the photo, Wang Duoyu is lying on a long table wearing only shorts, covered with salmon sushi, with an expression that is both awkward and stubborn.

4. Women's football substitute goalkeeper: The most outrageous thing is that it was revealed that he once served as a substitute goalkeeper for a certain women's amateur football team under the pseudonym "Wang Meili".

Although the scam was exposed in just two weeks, netizens quickly created a large number of memes after the incident was unearthed: "Wang Meili makes a save online" and "Women's football goalkeeper requests to play".

After these scandals were exposed, public opinion was instantly in an uproar.

But to everyone's surprise, the netizens' reaction was not condemnation, but celebration.

"Help! Is this really that aloof, golden goalkeeper?"

"From human sushi to the national team, what an inspiring story!"

"Wang Meili, hahaha, this name is so thoughtful!"

In just half a day, Wang Duoyu's memes swept the entire internet.

The most popular image is a screenshot of him baring his teeth while biting someone, captioned "If you dare to shoot again, I'll bite you"; the second most popular image is a human sushi photo, which was photoshopped into a "goalkeeper sushi set"; and the "Wang Meili" meme has been played with in creative ways, with some netizens even photoshopping him with pigtails and a women's football team uniform.

The public relations department of Xihong City FC was as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

The general manager convened an emergency meeting: "This matter must be dealt with seriously! Wang Duoyu is now our face, and these dark secrets..."

“General Manager,” the marketing director suddenly interrupted him, “our jersey sales have increased by 300% today, all of them are printed with the name ‘Wang Duoyu’.”

"what?"

“Moreover,” the social media manager added, “Wang Duoyu’s personal account gained 200 million followers a day, and now the price for each advertisement can triple.”

The conference room fell into an eerie silence.

Even more unexpectedly, business collaborations came in like snowflakes:
A sports brand proposed that Wang Duoyu recreate the "human sushi" pose, except this time he would use sports equipment as "ingredients";
A talk show offered him an exorbitant price to tell the story of "Wang Meili";

Even a sushi chain wanted him to be their spokesperson, and they even came up with an advertising slogan: "From human sushi to door god—a delicious transformation!"

"Are these people crazy?" Su Ning stared in disbelief at the table full of cooperation offers.

The agent grinned from ear to ear: "Old Wang, do you know what netizens are calling you now? 'The number one comedian in the football world'! Even those serious football stars don't have this kind of popularity!"

On the training field, his teammates naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to tease him.

"Wang Meili~" Li Wei shouted in a high-pitched voice, "Come and catch my ball~"

"Get lost!" Suning threw a ball at the goalkeeper, but it only drew laughter from the whole team.

Even the usually serious German coach Mark couldn't help but joke, "Wang, you can wear a skirt to the next team training session; maybe it will improve your save rate."

What was even more surprising was the fans' reaction. At the next home game, some fans in the stands actually held up a banner that read, "Wang Meili, we love you."

Whenever Suning makes a brilliant save, the entire stadium chants in unison, "Bite him! Bite him!"

This has become the latest way for Xihongshi FC to cheer on their team.

As expected, reporters asked about the scandals at the post-match press conference.

To everyone's surprise, Suning did not shy away from the issue:
"That's right! I have bitten people, worked as a nude model, and almost became a member of the women's soccer team," he said frankly. "But that was all out of necessity. If someone laughs at me now because of my past, it only proves..."

He paused, then gave a sly smile. "They've never seen me dressed as a woman."

The entire audience of reporters burst into laughter.

This interview video quickly topped the charts on major platforms, garnering over ten million likes.

That evening, when Suning checked the system, they discovered a new message:

[Host detected to have gained "national-level" popularity]

[Unlock Special Skill: King of Comedy (Passive)]

[Effect: Temporarily increases reaction speed by 30% when eliciting laughter from the audience]

Suning was left speechless, both amused and exasperated.

What's this? The funnier the save, the better?

My phone vibrated; it was a message from the national team head coach: "Old Wang, I'm considering starting you in next month's friendly match... By the way, can you wear women's clothing?"

Upon seeing this news, Suning shook his head and smiled.

From a star goalkeeper to a football comedian, this turn of events was something he never anticipated.

But one thing he was certain of...

Whether through skill or humor, he has become the most irreplaceable "Wang Duoyu" in Chinese football.

Outside the window, the night view of Xihong City is still dazzling.

Tomorrow, a new training session will begin.

This time, however, when he walked onto the field, he was greeted not only by the cheers of the fans, but also by shouts of "Wang Meili" echoing throughout the stadium.

Is this the price to pay for fame?

Suning tightened his shoelaces, but couldn't help but smile.

It seems...not bad at all?
