Chapter 549 Come on, Ronnie (Seeking Monthly Ticket Subscription)
On January 14, 2010, Aston Villa Club held a live press conference at Villa Park Stadium.
This is also Ronaldo's debut meeting at Aston Villa.
There are still more than two hours before Ronaldo's appearance, and a large number of fans have gathered at the gate of Villa Park Stadium.
In order to be able to enter the Villa Park Stadium early, some fans even lined up two or three hours in advance.
As the debut time approached, there were more and more fans at the scene.
Some elderly people came here on crutches, and those with poor physical strength were sent to the hospital by ambulance because of the poor waiting time and feeling unwell.
Because there were too many fans, Aston Villa had to announce that Ronaldo's debut ceremony had been postponed for half an hour.
The press conference was held in the press hall of Villa Park Stadium.
Accompanied by team coach Fang Jue, club CEO Bob Clark and club general manager Byron, Ronaldo raised the Aston Villa jersey with the number 99 printed on it with both hands.
This is his Aston Villa shirt number.
Ronaldo's favorite is No. 9, the legend and reputation of R9 shook the world.
However, now, Aston Villa's No. 9 is on the body of Ronaldo's former teammate Ruud van Nistelrooy, so Ronaldo naturally cannot snatch the old man's number.
In the end, Ronaldo chose No. 99. When he was in AC Milan, he also chose the largest number.
At the press conference, Ronaldo also explained why he chose Aston Villa: "For me, the challenge is always the most important. For the competitive challenge, I refused money.
If I go to Saudi Arabia or America, I can make more money.
I could have stayed at Corinthians, but Villa gave me a new challenge, I accepted it and I wanted to tell the world—”
Ronaldo was a little emotional. He paused and said, "My career is not over."
"Of course, there is another important reason. Coach Fang Jue sent me an invitation. I said to myself, this is an invitation I cannot refuse."
"Hopefully I can achieve good results for the club and those who have given me a warm welcome."
A reporter asked Ronaldo whether he could appear in the World Cup in South Africa.
"I haven't had time to discuss my future with the national team with Dunga, I hope I can go to South Africa, but my first goal is to contribute to Aston Villa."
The press conference was broadcast live on the big screen at the scene, and Ronaldo's remarks also won cheers from the Aston Villa fans at the scene.
...
After the press conference.
Ronaldo, wearing the No. 99 Aston Villa jersey, ran into Villa Park from the players' tunnel.
In an instant, the whole stadium erupted with huge cheers and applause.
In the stands of the Villa Park Stadium, a banner was hung: Hello, Ronaldo, you are ours!
Aston Villa held a press conference to officially announce the joining of Ronaldo.
And then the grand debut ceremony held by the club for him.
This caused a sensation in the entire football world.
Aston Villa's official website subsequently announced that 28,932 fans came to Villa Park to welcome Ronaldo.
For a 33-year-old veteran, such a grand welcome scene is absolutely remarkable.
You know, this is not a holiday, nor is it a weekend, and it is short notice, which is enough to explain Ronaldo's appeal.
"Even if he is thirty-three years old, then he has gained weight and cannot run as fast as before."
"But, his name is Ronaldo!"
This is a commentary published by Duncan Casteul, a reporter from The Times, in his column.
...
The effect of Ronaldo joining Aston Villa is very obvious.
Aston Villa lined up in front of the franchise store at Villa Park, all ordering Ronaldo's No. 99 jersey.
Aston Villa officially set a price of £99 for the number 99 jersey with Ronaldo's name on it.
In just 12 hours, 8,231 pieces were sold (including full reservations) in stores and on Nike's official website.
Among them, sales in Asia, especially in East Asia, including China, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan are very hot.
According to statistics, sales in Asia account for 45% of sales.
Not only that, Aston Villa officials also cooperated with Nike officials to launch a global lucky draw for the purchase of Ronaldo, Beckham, Ruud van Nistelrooy jerseys.
Winners can get a special jersey signed by the three stars.
While this activity excited many fans, it also shocked and stunned many media and fans:
Ronaldo, wearing the Aston Villa jersey number 99.
Ruud van Nistelrooy, wearing the Aston Villa No. 9 jersey.
David Beckham wears the Aston Villa No. 7 jersey (After Ashley Young left, the No. 7 jersey became vacant, and Beckham got his favorite No. 7, which made the previous Beckham's No. 27 jersey sold by the club has become out of print and is treasured by many fans.)
The three superstars of the Galaxy record that year, went around and went around, and even reunited in Aston Villa.
The influence and market value of these three stars are undoubtedly huge.
Aston Villa club general manager Byron informed the club that after the news of Ronaldo's joining was confirmed, the Premier League copyright owner has adjusted and increased the number of Aston Villa broadcasts again.
The more games broadcast, the more broadcast dividends.
Fang Jue is in a good mood, these are all ineffective little cuties.
"It's not just about Ronaldo or Beckham and Van Nistelrooy," Miss Papa said. "I have a survey here."
This is a survey commissioned by Aston Villa. The fans' awareness and love for the current Aston Villa has greatly improved.
In addition to Beckham and Ruud van Nistelrooy, other Aston Villa players are also very popular. According to this survey, German star Deisler, Welsh star Gareth Bale, England native star Abang Rajo is the most popular.
It is worth noting that behind these four players are Milner and Clement, and these two players also received high votes.
It can be said that the joining of famous stars like Ronaldo and Beckham has indeed greatly helped Aston Villa expand its influence and increase its market value.
"However, we must also notice that the foundation of the team is well done. The team built by Coach Fang Jue is the foundation for the fans to be most satisfied." Papa said.
Everyone applauds.
Although it's very frustrating for this pair of men and women to spread dog food, the problem is that Papa is telling the truth.
...
On January 17, the twenty-second round of the Premier League, Aston Villa played against West Ham United at home.
In this game, Ronaldo did not enter the squad for the game, which disappointed many fans who were looking forward to seeing Ronaldo's Aston Villa debut in this game.
The fans of Beckham were also disappointed. Beckham returned from injury and sat on the bench in this game. However, Sidwell was sent off in the second half of the game, which disrupted Fang Jue's change. In the end, Beckham did not get a chance to play.
In the end, the two sides drew zero to zero.
The score was zero to zero, but the game was not peaceful.
For Aston Villa, Sidwell was sent off with a red card, and three players received yellow cards.
Five yellow cards for West Ham United.
After the game, Fang Jue had a quarrel with West Ham coach Zola.
Before the start of this season, Zola, who admired the technical genre, had to consider being more realistic in the face of performance pressure. This game is an example. Facing the second place in the Premier League, West Ham United played very aggressively. Also managed to take away a point from Villa Park.
At the press conference, what the reporters were most concerned about was when Beckham and Ronaldo's debuts would come.
"I can tell everyone responsibly." Fang Jue said, "David and Ronnie both have a great chance to play against Blackburn."
Two days later, Aston Villa will usher in a crucial game, which is the second leg of the League Cup semi-final against Blackburn.
The next day, a picture was posted on Aston Villa's official website:
On Aston Villa's training ground, Ronaldo, Beckham and Ruud van Nistelrooy were talking and laughing happily, and they seemed to be in a pretty good mood.
...
"Congratulations to the host, the window that triggered the opening of [The Last Wave of Classic Superstar]!"
Fang Jue wanted to hug the system and kiss him hard. He just asked the system if there was any way to restore Ronaldo to health without getting injured, and the system gave this prompt.
However, the last wave of the goddamn classic superstar...
Then, Fang Jue saw that to restore Ronaldo to health, he needed to pay 36 million krypton gold.
Fang Jue yelled, his current account is only worth 36.53 million krypton gold, the system took care of his family.
Fang Jue was a little hesitant. He only needed 20 million krypton gold to buy a [Green Scout Skill Card].
Buying the first [non-mainstream league player card] only needs 10 million krypton gold value.
Wouldn't it be nice for him to save this krypton gold value to buy these two skill cards?
For a thirty-three-year-old Ronaldo!
Just for an emotion.
Is it worth paying such a big price?
worth!
Fang Jue said to himself.
He chose to confirm the payment without hesitation.
Developed.
Developed!
Developed!
Fang Jue felt like a deer bumping wildly, this is the feeling of love.
He glanced at the system prompt just now, and the system friendly reminded him that he chose to pay 36 million krypton gold to 'save' Ronaldo, but he could not get a completely healthy Ronaldo.
According to the system's explanation, the system can only control Ronaldo to stop gaining weight, but losing weight cannot be achieved through the system unless the player works hard to lose weight.
In addition, it is impossible for the system to bring Ronaldo back to his peak in the 1990s. It can only make Ronaldo's physical function 8 years younger.
As for why it was eight years younger, the system didn't say.
Fang Jue couldn't care less about asking.
He is very satisfied.
Ronaldo eight years ago, what year was it eight years ago?
It's 2002!
However, a fat 2002 version of Ronaldo...seems a bit out of harmony.
Well, it doesn't matter.
This has exceeded Fang Jue's expectations.
Fang Jue was ecstatic, and at the same time, he was summing up in his heart.
His appeal to the system is to restore Ronaldo to health without injury.
This appeal is very general, so the system gives the optimal result.
If the demands he made were only for Ronaldo to avoid injury and cure his obesity, the system would definitely not give him the answer that satisfies him now.
It seems that there are loopholes that can be exploited?
Fang Jue thought secretly.
He feels that his struggle with the system is long and arduous, and it is a battle of wits and courage.
...
"Oh, God, is this a porcupine?"
Ronaldo looked at the guy with countless silver needles all over his body in the photo, and almost didn't recognize that it was himself.
"This is the most mysterious medical technique from the ancient eastern country." Fang Jue said.
Fang Jue told Ronaldo that he hired a doctor with excellent medical skills, who can treat Ronaldo's obesity well. At the same time, this treatment method can also improve his physical fitness, especially the pressure resistance and protection of his knees, so as to avoid re-injury.
Most importantly, it can stimulate the potential of the body and regain the feeling of youth.
Ronaldo didn't know why he agreed in a daze.
He was then taken to a private clinic.
Ronaldo also took a special look at it. He has very complete medical qualifications, the clinic facilities are very complete, and the hardware is luxurious. He is relieved.
Then he was anesthetized.
After waking up, Fang Jue told him that the treatment was over.
And showed Ronaldo a few photos taken during the treatment.
Of course, these photos are produced systematically, there is no so-called treatment process at all.
"How do you feel now?" Fang Jue asked.
"Great! It feels pretty good!" Ronaldo picked up a football with one foot, kicked it away, and then chased it.
He touched the ball with his right foot and almost subconsciously made a sudden change of direction.
The action is perfect.
However, Ronaldo was stunned.
He just made this action subconsciously. This is the muscle memory of the 2002 version of Ronaldo, subconsciously.
After making the movement, he was frightened himself. His first reaction was, it's over, his ankle!
However, the feared great pain did not come.
fine!
I'm fine!
Ronaldo squatted down, got up again, and touched his knees with both hands.
this feeling...
It's been too long.
Ronaldo looked serious and serious.
He is very serious and careful to try.
This is my knee, this is my body, so healthy, I can run, jump, stop and change direction suddenly, and ride a bicycle.
Even the pendulum-like extraordinary moves, Ronaldo was very nervous and worried to try.
He succeeded.
Ah ah ah ah ah!
Ronaldo clenched his fists and shouted loudly, this is to vent.
Then, Fang Jue saw this thirty-three-year-old man squatting there, covering his face with his hands, and crying loudly.
Fang Jue's eyes were suddenly moist.
Come on, Ronnie, you are my youth, Fang Jue said silently in his heart.
Don't leave regrets.
Enjoy football.
This is the happiness you deserve.
...
"Ronaldo's joining is just a show!"
The next day, Fang Jue saw the report.
This is a report from The Sun.
The "Sun" questioned that Aston Villa's invitation to Ronaldo to join was just an unreal show. Everyone knew that Ronaldo was dying.
"Aston Villa just need Ronaldo's influence and final market value, they don't really count on Ronaldo to score goals."
"The player himself knows that he just enjoys being back at the center of European football and being noticed."
"Of course, there's also the money factor."
"But look at the situation he's in, how bloated and poor he's been in training these two days."
"At thirty-three years old, Ronaldo is fat and old, and his speed is gone." - "The Sun" columnist Alan Darwin said in a spicy tone, "The six-year-old boy next door to my house can run faster than him .”
