Starting with playing defensive midfield for Evergrande

Chapter 189 Asia's First Golden Globe Award is Coming!

"Ding dong!"

"Legendary treasure chest has been distributed!"

"Turn it on?"

A dazzling golden light enveloped the entire system space.

Seeing the tempting system treasure chest, Su Hao naturally chose to open it without hesitation.

"Ding dong!"

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained the highest-level legendary unique item, the Attribute Talent Breakthrough Card!"

"PS: 1. As a legendary and unique item, after you use this card, your talent attributes will no longer have an upper limit. Whether it is physical fitness, speed or jumping, all your attributes can be enhanced to the maximum of 99 using training points!"

"2. Once the highest-level unique item is used, the system mission will be completely closed. Please use it with caution!"

Su Hao was stunned!
Since he transmigrated here, he has obtained quite a few top-tier system items, but as the system just explained, this is the first time he has ever seen a top-level legendary unique item.

However, it was precisely because it was the first time he had seen it that Su Hao realized just how exaggerated this thing was.

Are there no longer upper limits on talent attributes?
This means that after using this thing, as long as he goes all out, he can completely equip himself to an exaggerated level of 99, just like the virtual characters in the game.

Whether it's defense or offense, shooting or damn steals, it's 99.
When that time really comes, I'm afraid I'll be the only super god in football history!
Of course, using this cheat has significant side effects. Once you use it, your system tasks will be completely shut down, meaning you'll never get any more treasure chests.

Su Hao was very excited, but even so, he didn't rush to use the thing.

After all, I haven't upgraded the peak of my talents yet. I'll use this thing after I've maxed out all my existing talents. Maybe I can even get a few more treasure chests in the meantime!
And so, Su Hao happily logged out of the system, and then left the locker room with Zheng Zhi and the others who had been waiting for a long time!

"Su Hao!"

"Su Hao!"

"Su Hao!!!"

Just as Su Hao had imagined, even though more than an hour had passed since the match ended.

The Sydney Olympic Stadium was still packed with its own fans.

As soon as the bus appeared in front of them, the still incredibly excited fans surrounded it in unison.

Red flags were waving all around, and the crazy fans were not only chanting Su Hao's name, but everyone else had also rolled down their car windows!

Every national team member, including Lippi, was mentioned by the fans.

In the end, the crowd of tens of thousands of people actually sang together the song that the Chinese people had long remembered!

It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that Su Hao, Zheng Zhi, and others thanked the fans and returned to their hotel.

Qin Sheng and the others had initially insisted that Su Hao treat them to a meal, but seeing the excited fans still circling the hotel entrance, they ended up having to give up and stay in the hotel to sleep.

The next morning at nine o'clock.

The bus back to China was already parked in front of the hotel lobby.

"Damn it, Haozi, you're incredibly lucky!"

As soon as Zhao Xuri sat down, he started complaining, covering his mouth and yawning.

"Yeah! I couldn't sleep all night watching our videos, and the more I watched, the more upset I felt. We should be..."

"What should it be? Should it be playing games while holding an Australian girl?"

"Screw you, do you think I'm that kind of person? I just wanted to say we should have a good drink!"

"Oh, there's still a chance! We have time tonight, don't we? It's actually more convenient in China; there aren't many reporters watching. We can have a good drink!"

The group chattered away, discussing what would happen at the venue that evening.

However, Zheng Zhi quickly poured cold water on their enthusiasm.

"I have plans for tonight. The Football Association just contacted me. The whole team has to go to Sports X tonight for an awards ceremony!"

"Oh? There's an event tonight! Some kind of awards ceremony?"

"Watch your words, tonight's awards ceremony is different, there are..."

Qin Sheng and his group initially thought the Football Association's activities were rather pointless, but upon hearing the names of those to be present at the awards ceremony that evening, they all immediately fell silent.

"Um, Zhi-ge, shouldn't we be wearing formal attire?"

"Should I wear a tie?"

"Of course, everyone's dressed formally tonight, and ties too. Also, be careful not to chatter!"

"Brother, don't scare me! I don't have a suit. What should I do?"

Upon hearing that he really had to wear a suit, Feng Xiaoting, who had only worn one once before—at his wedding—immediately became worried!
"It's alright, the Football Association will take care of it!"

Win the Asian Cup!
For Chinese football fans, it truly felt like celebrating the Lunar New Year.

In the days that followed, virtually all domestic media outlets focused their attention on the Chinese national football team.

Especially Su Hao!
At the commendation ceremony on the evening of his return to China, Su Hao went up on stage twice.

Not only did he receive an Outstanding Athlete Certificate from the General Administration of Sport, but he also received a letter of appointment as a Lifetime Image Ambassador for the Youth Organization.

An outstanding athlete award is just an annual honor, but a lifetime image ambassador appointment for a youth organization is incredibly valuable!
Just like a certain domestic basketball player, because his image is so positive, even if he has some flaws, it doesn't matter at all.

With this thing, Su Hao essentially had a get-out-of-jail-free card in the country.

From now on, as long as it's not a matter of principle that's too serious, Su Hao can basically do whatever he wants!

of course!

In addition to the awards and bonuses from the Chinese Football Association, the sports bureau, and Evergrande, Su Hao has received countless domestic endorsements and commercial contracts.

However, just as Mendes said, with Su Hao's current status, the endorsements he can accept must be top-tier international brands. Even if domestic brands offer very generous prices, Su Hao will directly refuse them.

However, a refusal is a refusal
When the Jin Sangzi throat lozenge manufacturer, which had fooled Ronaldo but then started to sign Kaká, offered Su Hao a three-year contract worth 2 million RMB, Su Hao immediately called Mendes, and the two of them rushed to the Jin Sangzi factory to shoot an advertisement!
Have no idea
Even the richest and most principled person wouldn't be fooled by an endorsement deal where they could get 2 million just by taking a few photos and saying a few words.
How the hell could I possibly refuse?!
And so, after finishing a number of official celebrations in China, Su Hao happily exchanged a few photos for over 100 million yuan!
The Asian Cup has ended.

After staying at home in China for about ten days, Su Hao boarded a flight to the United States.

This trip to the United States wasn't for tourism or vacation. Having already made hundreds of millions through stocks and endorsements, Su Hao was planning a revenge-driven spending spree.

When it comes to this kind of revenge spending, Su Hao's first thought is naturally to buy a private jet like Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi so that it's easier to go back to China.

Mendes said that earlier this year, he helped Ronaldo contact Bombardier in Canada and buy him a Bombardier Global Express 6500.

Cristiano Ronaldo spent approximately £6100 million, and Mendes suggested that Su Hao also buy this model, since he had previously recommended buying one, and there would be a significant discount if he bought it now.

But
Su Hao refused very decisively!

He didn't want to be ridiculed by Ronaldo's fans for copying Ronaldo.

After much deliberation, Su Hao decisively chose the Gulfstream G650 from Gulfstream Corporation of the United States.

In Su Hao's memory, this plane was the second one that Cristiano Ronaldo bought for a lot of money after he went to Saudi Arabia to make his fortune.

He was stunned when he saw Cristiano Ronaldo's custom-made full-body carbon fiber black paint, it was so exaggerated!
He never dared to think about it before, but now...
It's just a simple £85 million; he could easily earn that much in about a year.

Having chosen the model, Su Hao naturally wanted to go to the site to take a good look at his new ride, and also plan out the interior decoration of the aircraft.

Forehead.
Putting everything else aside, the bed has to be big, soft, and able to withstand his rough handling!
After all, he has the energy for a flight of ten hours or so.
15 8 Month 4 Day.

There are still about ten days until the new season officially starts.

At 12 noon that day.

Su Hao's flight landed on time at New York International Airport.

Just as Su Hao had imagined, as soon as he appeared at the exit, a large number of Chinese fans and reporters crowded in front of him.

Moreover, after Su Hao stopped to sign a few autographs for the fans, the crowd at the scene only grew larger and larger.

Just when it seemed Su Hao was about to get out, thankfully Nina arrived at the scene with her team!
Now that he's in the United States, Su Hao naturally won't forget his current girlfriend, whom he has already publicly acknowledged.

With the help of Nina's group of tall, dark-skinned bodyguards, Su Hao was finally able to leave the airport safely.

"su!"

Meow!

As soon as she got into the van, Nina closed the privacy and soundproof window on the driver's side and threw herself into Su Hao's arms.

Having not seen each other for a long time, Nina naturally missed Su Hao and Shui Bolin.

"Nina, what if there's something wrong on the bus?"

"woooooo"

Su Hao's concerns were indeed correct.

Because of the distance from the airport to the hotel, even though the driver wisely drove at the slowest speed, it only took an hour and a half.

That's not nearly enough time compared to Su Hao's four-hour starting time!
Left with no other option, Nina knocked on the soundproof window in front of her and told the driver to leave.

And so, Su Hao remained nestled in the van, stunned.
After spending a day with Nina, Su Hao took her to the headquarters of Gulfstream Corporation.

Because there is currently a sufficient stock of the Gulfstream G650 aircraft, Su Hao directly instructed the designers to create sketches according to his requirements.

Su Hao pointed out various things, such as putting a huge sofa here, adding an arcade here, and a simple gym here, while Nina nestled in Su Hao's arms, full of love.

Have no idea
As the lead actress in an American TV series, Nina's annual income is now so low that she can't even afford a single part of this plane.

Now that Su Hao, a world-class soccer star, is on her list, Nina is already wondering whether she should pretend not to know if she finds out he's cheating or having affairs with other actresses, or whether she should encourage him and help him pick out some women she finds acceptable.
Time flies!

After winning the Asian Cup and booking a private jet in the United States, Su Hao returned to London to prepare for the new 2015-2016 season.

Thanks to the continued full support of Evergrande Group, Arsenal not only avoided losing any players this season, but also further strengthened their bench depth.

It is precisely because of their ample funds that Arsenal has been able to maintain their dominance this season, achieving an impressive undefeated record in all competitions after the halfway point of the league!

Yes!

It's incredible, but because of Su Hao, a player of such exceptional talent, Arsenal not only went undefeated in the league, but also won every Champions League group stage match by a large margin.

And amidst a series of resounding victories.
On the afternoon of January 10, 2016.

Su Hao boarded a private plane to Nyon, Switzerland, along with Arsène Wenger, Robert Lewandowski, N'Golo Kanté, Virgil van Dijk, and other current Arsenal stars.

"Hey! How are you going to celebrate your Golden Globe Award tomorrow?"

As soon as he boarded the plane, Lewandowski cheekily sidled up to Su Hao and asked him a question.

Although the Ballon d'Or has not yet been officially announced, both the Arsenal players and all the mainstream European media are already aware of it.

Almost everyone believed that Su Hao winning the 2015 Globe Award was a foregone conclusion.

"What's there to celebrate? The results won't be out until tomorrow! I might not even get it!"

Well... Although Su Hao himself felt that he should have a sure thing this time, he really couldn't say for sure what kind of people UEFA were like, just like when a certain football king won the Ballon d'Or before.

They had nothing, yet they still managed to defeat Sneijder, who won the treble and reached the World Cup final, and had the last laugh.
"My God! Su! There's no World Cup this year, and you've won all the MVP awards—the league, the Champions League, the FA Cup, and the Asian Cup MVP. If you still can't win the Ballon d'Or, I think there's no point in having the Ballon d'Or anymore!"

As soon as Su Hao finished expressing his concerns, Lewandowski immediately patted his chest and assured Su Hao.

"Su! Don't worry! It will definitely be you!"

Got it!
Not only Lewandowski, but even the professor sitting in front of Su Hao turned around and spoke.

"Hey! Sue! Aren't you the first Asian, the first Chinese, to win a Golden Globe? By the way, will there be a live broadcast in China? Do you think we should both wear Tang suits to the event? I've seen Jack Cheng wear Tang suits abroad, so..."

While everyone else was comforting Su Hao, Van Dyke, Su Hao's compatriot, cheekily asked about his clothes.

Damn, seeing Van Dijk's eyes practically sparkling, Su Hao was speechless for a long time.

Yes
Old Fan is now reaping the benefits of being a Chinese citizen.

But there's nothing we can do about it; it's just that Chinese people love Lao Fan's obsequious manner.

Moreover, Lao Fan's blatant flattery has not been entirely ineffective. At least now, in Brazil, and even in poor and impoverished places like Argentina, as well as in second- or third-tier European countries, quite a few players have started to explicitly state their Chinese heritage in their player profiles.

Su Hao even saw a Belgian youth player's introduction, which stated that his great-grandmother was someone his great-grandfather had taken from China during the Qing Dynasty.

Oh shit
Upon seeing that description, Su Hao was so angry he wanted to sue that guy right away!
P.S.: I'll finish this when I win the Ballon d'Or. I'll work on the World Cup and other side stories later. I have work-related issues and my own problems. The book has already fallen apart, but at least I've written a million words!
