The Young Lion

It is not surprising that gentry names often flow in and out of the Leeds Hotel. It is no surprise that Aldridge can meet Italian Armani here.

After getting Aldrich's hand to reach out, Armani sat down in the empty seat next to him. The three hot girls opposite, Victoria, Haliver, and Emma bowed their heads together, and exclaimed in unison: "Armani! Oh, my god!"

"Are you here to travel by ferry?"

Aldridge looks as usual. In fact, in London, he can see many celebrities. If he wants, he will attend various events and banquets every day with his elder brother and brother. The social circle will penetrate into the entertainment circle, political circle, business circle and so on.

"No, I'm here to prepare for the fall fashion show. I came here for dinner with a few models."

Following Armani's gaze, Aldridge saw a group of gorgeous young girls sitting at a table not far away, and some of them smiled and flicked their eyes at this side, I don't know whether it was to please the boss or For Aldridge.

Aldrich withdrew his eyes and nodded: "Understood, Mr. Armani, IMHO, what are you doing for me? Are you asking them to be a model?"

Armani smiled: "I can't afford them. Their one appearance fee is enough for a team's annual budget. I'm here for you, Mr. Hall. I came to London and I opened different newspapers. , Seeing your appearance rate is very high, some people are born models, and I think you are such a person, standing on the side of the football field, holding his head high, not only does not have the frizz of young people, but confident and restrained, There is an indescribable charm that makes it impossible to obscure the eyes. Most of the time, men will want to imitate you, because this will make them more attractive to women."

The babes are excited again, and they did not expect that big men like Armani also knew them.

But Aldridge raised a small smile and opened the door straight away: "Mr. Armani, thank you for your compliments, but you did not answer my question."

"How about the Armani men's clothing?"

"There is no time to shoot commercials, and I will wear a suit other than winter in a coat."

"You don't need to advertise. You wear Armani suits, you will be photographed every weekend, and you will wear Armani coats in winter. The same is true. Of course, if you want, we can give away casual clothes for free. In normal life, you can wear whatever you like. I think the British paparazzi will occasionally put you on the gossip headline."

Aldridge smiled silently.

The advertising endorsement fees of football stars will be higher and higher, thanks to the development of broadcast technology and the promotion of football culture. Unlike film stars, the shooting rate of sports stars is fixed. For example, football stars, almost every weekend Appears in front of the camera, whether it is poor or good, it will be the focus.

And movie stars? TV series will not be played repeatedly, and the cycle of the movie is too long. Variety shows that need exposure are not necessarily liked by everyone. In the UK, football is the most popular entertainment program. Men, women and children have the widest audience.

Aldrich turned around and pointed to the upper left corner of the suit he is wearing now, where there is Milwall’s team logo. He said: "The last condition is that a tailored suit or coat for me must have a Mil. The club's badge."

Armani nodded after a moment of contemplation: "Yes, this will make your dress more alternative and attract more eyeballs."

Millwall’s team emblem represents a football club, not a clothing brand, and there is no commercial interest confrontation. Armani is not difficult to accept. On the contrary, a head coach in a suit must wear the club’s brand to be more attractive. It’s special, it’s different.

Aldridge took a pen out of his suit pocket, wrote a phone number on the napkin, and handed the napkin to Armani, saying: "Please talk to him about the endorsement fee, Andrew Hall, my brother."

"Okay, bye."

Armani took the napkin and got up and left.

Just before his forefoot, Emma asked excitedly: "Aldrich, why are you not excited at all? That's Armani, George Armani!"

Aldridge took a drink from the glass and said lightly: "If I treat him with respect and respect, he will not speak to me. What he wants is my confidence and maturity. Furthermore, if I see you here When I go to Maradona, I might be excited. I can see him. I'm sorry. I have seen a few celebrities, and I have never had a cold for fashion."

"You're so boring!"

"Thank you, I don't like being a clown in the eyes of others."

"You said I was a clown?"

"No, I'm just over the age of star chasing."

"You are younger than me!"

"But my psychological age is more mature than you."

"you!"

Emma gritted her teeth, and Victoria joked: "Aldrich, if you continue to fight with her, your maturity will vanish."

Aldridge nodded in agreement: "Yes, the words are entangled, and I am at the same level as her. Ladies, it's not too late, I should go home and rest, let's go, I will call you a car."

Out of the Leeds Hotel, Aldridge said goodbye to them one by one. Before leaving, Melanie smiled at him: "I'm waiting for you in Liverpool."

"Forget it, your whole family will be unhappy."

"Hum, what's the pride? Liverpool is not Arsenal. It will allow you to easily take away the victory, and is it in Anfield?"

"Look and see."

Five babes were sent away, and Aldridge drove home.

The next day, Aldridge received a call from Andrew at home, and he had negotiated Armani's affairs. He only accepted a one-year contract and an endorsement fee of 500,000 pounds. This was not low in this era. Aldridge After agreeing, two more days later, Armani sent a tailor to measure the height for Aldridge, and then went back to wait for their tailor-made clothing to come to the door.

In the second round of the Premier League, in addition to the arsenal defeating the Lion’s Cave Stadium, the Reds Liverpool lost to Leeds United on the road, and the defending champion Blackburn lost to Xie Wednesday. These two games are also very noticeable, and Manchester United defeated West Ham United. The team was on the right track and Newcastle United led the standings with two consecutive victories.

Because there will be a League Cup match next week and challenge the Greensby of the Premier League away, Aldridge is ready to substitute in the fourth round of the Premier League to challenge the defending champion Blackburn, so he plays the third round of the game against Anfield , He attaches great importance.

From the middle of the week, I began to study tactical countermeasures. I repeated the video of Liverpool's first two games this season and then formulated corresponding tactical strategies.

Although they won the Champions League last season, these young men have nothing but honors. After tying Manchester United and defeating Arsenal, their training attitude is more serious, hoping to prove themselves on the big stage of the Premier League.

After the weekend, Aldridge led his team to Merseyside.

The port city has a unique charm, but Millwall has no time to appreciate it. They came to Anfield in a bus, then warmed up, returned to the locker room to prepare, and waited for the appearance. Aldridge never said anything.

The Red Army Liverpool wore their traditional red jerseys. They were already waiting to play in the player channel. When the Millwall boys came out, Aldridge followed them, especially stopping before a sign facing the wall before going down the stairs. pace.

He looked up at the sign, called Larson to him, and asked softly, "Henrick, what does it say?"

Larsson looked at the sign bearing the Liverpool team logo, and the Liverpool players next to him all looked prideful, as if to say: Villager, don't even know this?

"This is Anfield!"

Larson said flatly.

Aldridge took his ear and mumbled, "What are you talking about?"

"Boss, this is Anfield!"

Larson repeated it loudly, all the teammates behind him raised their heads and scrambled to look at the brand.

Aldridge said in a deep voice: "Yes, this is Anfield! Great stadium, great Bill Shankly's legacy for the Red Army Liverpool. Here, Liverpool left four European Champions Cup trophy, they kept The title with the most titles in England’s top league, okay, Henrik, what would it take to win victory from here?"

Larson smiled and said aloud, "Wonderful!"

The Millwall team laughed.

"Wonderful, unbelievable, so, ninety minutes later, we will go home with this unbelievable feeling. This is Anfield, I love it, thanks to the stage built by Liverpool, Millwall, tell me , What should I do then?"

"Chong! Chong! Chong! Millwall!"

The team members shouted in unison, this is the slogan they have been used to in training.

Aldridge twisted down the stairs and passed the group of dull Liverpool players. He also patted Jamie Redknapp on the shoulder and smiled: "Jamie, perform well today. If you see Go to your father and tell him to see today’s game. Millwall will play like this when he plays West Ham. Let him shut up. Frank and Leo have forgotten West Ham."

Jamie Redknapp was dumbfounded and had no idea what to say.

His father, who is now West Ham United coach: Harry Redknapp, the outside world likes to call his old Redknapp, to distinguish Jamie the little Redknapp.

When the Liverpool players saw the militant Millwall players, they couldn't help but think of another team from London: Wimbledon.

It was a mob, and Millwall was rumored to be a rogue.

Damn London team!
