Chapter 59 The Economic Effects of Fame After One Battle
When Sun Ke got home that evening, he received calls from a number of old acquaintances, including Harry Kane, Joelley, Cox, and Slade.
You could tell that these old friends were genuinely happy for him.
Harry Kane was loaned to Norwich by Tottenham this season, and it's already quite impressive that he's made his Premier League debut at just 18 years old.
Joelley came on as a substitute once and performed quite well.
Cox has become Southampton's starting left winger.
Slade became the football director of Leyton Orient, a position that Sun Ke felt was more suitable for him.
In the evening, Sun Ke and his family sat in front of the TV and watched the highlights of the day's matches.
The Manchester United vs. Arsenal match took up nearly ten minutes of the one-hour highlights.
The program host kept using exclamations to describe Sun Ke's performance.
"This young man actually single-handedly tore through Manchester United's right flank!"
"Long shot! Goal! Sun Ke has a really strong shot!"
"Sun Ke once again broke through on the left wing, and his pass helped the team earn their second penalty of the match!"
"A one-on-one chance! Beautiful! This kid is in fantastic form!"
"Sun Ke passes the ball, Walcott equalizes the score!"
"The match is over! Sun Ke has contributed two goals and one assist!"
"He also helped the team win two penalties; his performance today was impeccable!"
The scene switches to the post-match press conference.
Ferguson's face darkened: "Sun Ke's performance? That kid played like a maniac today, he almost ran his socks off!"
"I think he's the best player this month, the kid's good!"
"Why didn't I sign him? Every head coach has their own methods."
"If I could go back a month, would I have bought him? I think so, but I'm not a wizard, and no manager can buy the best players at the same time."
When discussing Arsenal's performance, Ferguson said unhappily, "If Arsenal could perform like this against any other opponent, they would probably be champions already."
"Every team plays like crazy against Manchester United, but they can only play this one good game all season."
During the interview, Wenger couldn't resist taking a jab at Ferguson: "Manchester United have a more complete squad, but we performed better."
"If they play like this every game, they probably won't win the league title."
When asked if Sun Ke could replace Fabregas, Wenger smiled and glanced at the reporter.
"I know what you want to hear, you can't wait to hear me say something stupid, but I'm not going to a press conference drunk like Alex did."
After he finished speaking, the newsroom erupted in laughter.
After the laughter subsided, Wenger said seriously, "In my opinion, every player is unique."
"I have no intention of developing Sun Ke in the direction of Cesc; he certainly wouldn't want me to restrict his runs in the attacking third."
"It's unfair to compare a young player who has just entered the Premier League with a World Cup member. I won't put too much pressure on Sun Ke."
"But judging from his performance in this game, Son is the best midfielder I've ever seen among 19-year-old players."
Wenger's linguistic artistry greatly impressed Sun Ke; the old man had gone around in circles.
It actually conveys the same meaning: Sun Ke's performance is outstanding, even better than Fabregas' performance at age 19.
However, the media's writing in this way seems superficial. The old man's statement contained many conditions, leaving the media no opportunity to exploit any loopholes.
The following day, the match was extensively covered by various media outlets in England.
The Times: "Sun Ke delivered a phenomenal performance in yesterday's match, proving that with systematic training, players of Chinese descent have an equal chance to establish themselves in the Premier League."
"His performance has opened the door for eligible Chinese players to enter the English youth training system!"
442 gave Sun Ke a score of 10 after the match: "This young player contributed 2 goals and 1 assist in this game and played a crucial role in all of the team's goals."
"He covered a distance of 13600 meters, and under the high press of the defending champions, his passing accuracy reached 89%, with seven interceptions and two steals."
"For a 19-year-old player, this performance would earn 12 points, but the maximum score is only 10."
The Daily Mail: "Sun Ke's performance has once again proven Arsenal manager's eye for talent. A player who scored three goals and provided three assists in the first three league games cost Arsenal only £700 million, another great deal."
"Wenger has made many similar classic signings throughout his coaching career. When he was coaching Monaco, he discovered George Weah, who would later become the World Player of the Year. He brought in Kolo Toure for £15, Robin van Persie for £275 million, and Cesc Fabregas through youth academy compensation."
"In addition, Arsenal's manager brought in players such as Bergkamp, Vieira, Henry, and Ljungberg for transfer fees far lower than their later market value."
"The Arsenal manager's precise control of the financial budget gave Arsenal the courage to build the Emirates Stadium, and this transfer is another success in Wenger's managerial career."
The Sun broke the news about Arsenal's management, claiming that the club's top management had very high demands on Wenger.
Since the construction of the Emirates Stadium, the club has implemented a stringent salary system, stipulating that the club's top salary cannot exceed £8 per week. They only gave Wenger the budget of a mid-table Premier League club, yet demanded that the team qualify for the Champions League.
This wage structure is the main reason why players such as Nasri, Adebayor, and Clichy left the team.
The media outlet also quipped, "The less-than-ideal salary has fueled Fabregas's desire to return to Barcelona in pursuit of honors and a higher salary."
"Wenger met with the club's management multiple times, but the club was unwilling to spend big money to bring in top-tier players. Wenger could only afford to bring in some second-tier players."
After this news broke, all Arsenal fans expressed their support for Wenger.
They demanded that the club spend money to bring in players worthy of Arsenal, or they would do everything they could to lower the club's valuation.
In China, Sun Ke has already become a highly sought-after star player.
Six months later, NBA player Jeremy Lin, of Chinese descent, delivered a performance for the New York Knicks that shocked the American public.
Even though the NBA's popularity in China has declined significantly, Chinese fans still went wild with "Linsanity."
Sun Ke's popularity is several times higher than that of "Linsanity".
There's no way to change it; football is the world's number one sport.
The Premier League is the best league in the world, and Arsenal is one of the best clubs in the Premier League.
Fans saw a glimmer of hope for Chinese football in Sun Ke.
The media saw news buzz in Sun Ke.
People in the football world have found a way to learn from Sun Ke.
The hope in the children's eyes took on a clear shape.
Young girls were drawn to Sun Ke's sunny and handsome appearance, and his image of not dating and working hard made him an idol on the sports field.
As a result, Chinese clothing, sneaker, shampoo, food, and other brands all approached Barnett and began communicating with him.
Upon hearing that so many brands wanted to have him as their spokesperson, Sun Ke immediately had the idea of acquiring a brand in each major category.
It's not that he loves money, it's just that his father's finances seem to be a bit tight.
Since acquiring that apartment building, Mr. Sun has been leaving home earlier than him in the mornings and sometimes arriving home around the same time as him in the evenings.
In his memory, Sun's father was a middle-aged man who was quite bourgeois.
Even though the company has a large workload, he still goes home for dinner on time every day.
On weekends, he would also spend some time alone with his mother.
But lately, he's completely transformed into a miserable boss.
Sun Ke guessed that after paying the down payment, his finances were somewhat strained.
Most Chinese parents devote all their energy to their children after they are born.
Everyone felt that it was okay for them to suffer a little, the key was not to let their children suffer.
As a time traveler in his thirties, Sun Ke could roughly figure out his father's mental state.
The original storyline was that Sun's father would run a company and leave some assets to his son.
Even though the original owner spent most of his time in the lower leagues of England, he could still ensure his son had no worries about food and clothing.
Once my son retires, whether he works in football or takes over his job, I won't have to worry about making a living.
However, the plot took a completely different turn from what Sun's father had imagined.
Sun Ke quickly became a rising star and eventually joined a top English club.
If you can tolerate this, the key point is that your son is doing very well in the Premier League.
In the past, when people introduced him, they called him Boss Sun.
Now, when people introduce him, they simply call him Sun Ke's father.
Moreover, the responses were significantly more positive than before, and sometimes even enthusiastic.
This made Sun's father feel somewhat disappointed, because taking on the responsibility of a family is not only a man's duty, but also a man's pride.
Mr. Sun had always believed that he was the pillar of his family.
A majestic mountain!
Unexpectedly, a small hill next to the mountain suddenly rose up from the ground, about to surpass itself and pierce the sky.
This made Sun's father suddenly feel a lack of presence.
If this continues, he will be living a life of comfort and ease at an age when he should be striving for success.
This rhythm is off.
So Mr. Sun decided to challenge his own limits.
Taking big steps inevitably leads to... well, you know.
Watching her cheapskate father messing around with himself, Sun Ke felt a little sorry for him, but also found it funny.
If you have a few endorsements, you can basically help your dad get a good deal.
Barnett acted quickly, sending Sun Ke some brand information.
Sun Ke glanced at the brands: Li Ning, Heilan Home, Seven Wolves, Peacebird, Jinba Men's Wear, Jiumuwang, Wahaha, Chacha Sunflower Seeds, Yili...
I didn't expect to be so popular; all sorts of brands came to my door.
Wait, what the heck? They even have Jin Sang Zi throat lozenges...?
After much deliberation, Sun Ke decided to give up the food industry.
If something goes wrong with this thing, my brand image will collapse.
Sun Ke told Barnett that they could talk more about sportswear and suits, but they should forget about the others.
Back at the club, Sun Ke felt that Wenger was acting a bit strange.
