Max-level burst damage at the start, the British Empire arrives!

After the match, Wenger appeared at the press conference looking smug.

Arsenal have won two consecutive Champions League group stage matches, making it a smooth and successful run for the club.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the group leader is a shoo-in for the next round.

But he was happy not only with the competition results, but also with the financial benefits.

With each victory, Arsenal not only wins the game, but also earns real money.

This season, the total prize money awarded to the 32 participating teams in the Champions League reached 754.1 million euros.

All teams participating in the group stage will receive at least 720 million euros in prize money.

Furthermore, each participating team can receive a prize based on the result of each match: €80 for a win and €40 for a draw.

In just two matches, the old man earned the club nearly 900 million euros.

To pay off their debts, they're counting on the Champions League prize money.

However, in order to maintain the basic level of the league, it is not possible to play the Champions League with the full strength of the team when there are two matches a week.

This situation severely tests a head coach's micro-management skills.

The good news is that Arsenal won most of their games.

When faced with reporters' questions, the old man occasionally showed a bit of humor.

Reporters quickly asked Sun Ke: "This newly arrived young player has already become a key player for the team. In the matches he has played, your team has remained undefeated with 6 wins and 1 draw. What are your thoughts on this player's performance?"

Wenger thought for a moment, then said expressionlessly, "When the sample size is not large enough, the conclusions drawn may not be rigorous enough."

"However, data can also reflect the problem from one perspective, and judging from the current results, this is indeed the case."

"In a 4-3-3 formation, the defensive midfielder is like the waist of the formation, and other players will use the defensive midfielder as a reference point."

"Sun Ke is very talented in this area. He can always anticipate the direction of the opponent's pass and also has excellent interception and distribution abilities."

"He plays a very important role for the vast majority of possession-based teams."

"He is still young, and he is constantly growing and trying new things."

"Once he finds his rhythm, his understanding of the game will give him greater control."

The old man circled around twice, confirming the reporter's statement.

When asked to comment on Silva, the old man said, "Without a doubt, Thiago is the best player in his position."

"His defensive ability is of extraordinary significance to the team. He plays very intelligently and is very well-rounded."

"He can demonstrate his value in any competition."

The reporter also inquired about Chamberlain's situation. Wenger expressed high expectations for the young man but said he did not intend for Chamberlain to become a star overnight.

That evening, Sun Ke spoke with Barnett on the phone.

Barnett advised Sun Ke not to accept endorsements from small brands just for money, as accepting too many and too varied endorsements would lower her status.

After all, brands also have ecosystems. When a player joins a mid-to-low-level ecosystem, it means he acknowledges that he belongs to that level.

Higher-level brands will carefully assess whether choosing brand ambassadors will affect their reputation.

Sun Ke said, both amused and exasperated, "I understand all of this, but I really need the money."

The cheap father in this world spent all his savings to acquire an apartment building for himself.

These days, my cheapskate father has been working day and night to maintain his cash flow.

Although Sun Ke found it hard to accept the cheap father fate had given him, he believed that one should be grateful and loyal.

Seeing that he was becoming successful, it didn't seem right for his cheap father to be even busier.

Barnett gave a shrewd smile: "I know exactly what's going on, so I've come up with a solution for you."

Barnett then revealed his plan, leaving Sun Ke completely stunned.

Wow, you can play it like this?

However, upon closer reflection, Sun Ke felt that the plan was feasible.

Barnett's plan was to proactively leak the news of Sun Ke's father buying the apartment building to the media and expose it to the public through the media.

Then add some seemingly plausible but leading statements to solidify Sun Ke's identity as a rich second-generation.

In this way, securing high-profile endorsements is naturally not difficult.

"What if the media uncovers the truth?"

Sun Ke still had some concerns about this plan.

Although his father's company was valued at nearly ten million, it was still a far cry from being a true tycoon.

Barnett chuckled and said, "Heh, my family also owns some properties in London. We only state the facts in our reports."

"Then, as a company employee, you can disclose that your father also plans to acquire these properties, and there won't be any problems."

"I have my own sources of information, so if any media outlets want to report on you, I should be able to get the news immediately."

"If there are any problems, I can actually sell you a portion of the property."

After hearing Barnett's words, Sun Ke was at a loss for words.

He knew that Barnett's family ran a gambling company, a family that was obviously very wealthy.

Moreover, the extent to which they have achieved this often far exceeds the imagination of ordinary people.

It's like people on a ship seeing an iceberg and exclaiming in awe.

But in reality, the part above the sea surface is only the tip of the iceberg.

This is a real local tyrant in Britain.

Since a wealthy person is helping to build their public image, there is basically no risk of their image collapsing.

Even if his family assets are exposed by the all-powerful English media in a few years, he will have already become a top-class football star.

In the end, these old stories will only be used as topics of conversation.

Besides, it wasn't something she said voluntarily; it was the media that leaked it.

If anything is wrong, go find that media outlet.

When they parted, Barnett told Sun Ke that he had already picked out some brands for her.

That way, we can create a buzz.

With this matter resolved, Sun Ke's worries were finally put to rest.

If my cheapskate father works hard for a while longer, he'll eventually become a real tycoon.

It was 10 p.m. when Mr. Sun finally got home.

As soon as he entered the house, he excitedly told Sun Ke that he had closed several big deals.

Sun's father was no ordinary man either; he used Sun Ke's name to secure a property management job for an apartment in Islington, northwest London.

The apartment building is called Worcester Apartments, and the property owner is a die-hard Arsenal fan.

After learning about Mr. Sun's background, the old man immediately decided to let Mr. Sun's company take over the property management and renovation work of the apartment building.

Worcester Apartments are nestled between the City of London and the London Tech City, and their residents are mostly middle-class British working professionals.

The old man was very straightforward, but he made it very clear that if he ever transferred to another club, he would immediately terminate his cooperation with Sun's father.

Mr. Sun said that the old man built another apartment building in the village near his own apartment building and asked Mr. Sun to be in charge of the decoration work.

Hearing this, Sun Ke felt that at this rate, he would probably be tied to Arsenal forever.

It's okay, we'll talk about it later.

If your father's wealth snowballs and grows bigger and bigger, the importance of cash flow increases even further.

Sun Ke felt that she had unknowingly taken on the role of a cash cow.

I closed my eyes, opened them again, and it was another not-so-bright morning.

The weather in London is just unbelievable.

Sun Ke arrived at the club early in the morning.

The club was holding the opening ceremony of its annual "Employees' Cup" when Wenger, dressed in sportswear, saw Sun Ke.

Without saying a word, he told Sun Ke to go to the infirmary to have her physical condition checked.

Upon receiving the test results, Wenger clicked his tongue and exclaimed, "Youth is truly wonderful!"

Sun Ke was about to go to training when Wenger caught him again.

The old man made it very clear: "We're playing Tottenham in three days, and I absolutely cannot let you train today."

"You can either go home and sleep, or be our referee. The choice is yours."

Hearing this, Sun Ke couldn't help but smile wryly.

No.

Is your competition so hasty?

Referees needed at the last minute for the opening ceremony!

Besides, I don't know how!

Sun Ke said helplessly, "I can be the referee, but don't blame me if you make bad calls!"

Wenger laughed and said, "It's okay, as long as you agree on the standards for both sides."

Sun Ke has now witnessed the team-building activities of a football club. If you can't play football, you'd be embarrassed to work at a professional club.

The prizes for the competition were all obtained through sponsorships by the club, and they were all kinds of items.

They have everything: sports equipment, shopping mall loyalty cards, luxury hotel vouchers, and more.

Anyway, it doesn't cost the club a single penny; the old man is really stingy.

To ensure fairness, employees from different departments were drawn into teams by lottery.

The 62-year-old Wenger made his debut in the opening match, only to be singled out and eliminated by a construction worker.

In the afternoon, Wenger, who had some free time, called Sun Ke to his office and showed him match videos all afternoon.

Seeing the "reverse payment method" playing a minor role as a shadow striker everywhere.

The old man sighed, "He wasn't prepared for his current situation."

Over the next few days, Wenger tried everything he could to prevent Sun Ke from getting extra training.

Before we knew it, it was already the seventh round of the Premier League.

Arsenal are facing one of the most important matches of the entire season.

North London Derby.
