Chapter 383 The Man Who Untied 3 Buttons
"Matic had the ball and the Liverpool midfield pressed."
"Pass, Vidal, dunk Henderson, cross to Strowman!"
"Southampton's midfield pass is very skillful!"
"Stroman passed to Neymar, the Brazilian quickly cut to the middle, through!"
"The ball behind you, Drogba!!!!"
I saw that when Neymar dribbled the ball inside, Drogba suddenly slanted into the left rib of the penalty area from the middle.
Neymar's scalpel-like through ball was just right at the feet of Drogba.
"As soon as it stops, the left foot volleys, the ball is scored!!!!!!!"
"!!!"
"Drogba, Drogba, in the 37th minute, Drogba wins another game for Southampton, 2-0!"
The whole Wembley Stadium is completely fried!
In an instant, all the Saints fans were wildly cheering and cheering!
At the critical moment, after a long time, Drogba scored a crucial left-footed volley, which once again pierced Liverpool's goal!
At the moment of Drogba's goal, the entire royal box also followed a burst of cheers.
In particular, Yang Huan, Prince William, Hamad and Hugh Grosvenor who were sitting in the middle stood up excitedly and gave high fives to celebrate.
And sitting behind them, a handsome and handsome man slapped his forehead hard, looking rather annoyed, and kept shaking his head at the same time.
"What the hell did Skrtel do today? This kind of ball can't be defended!" The middle-aged man raised his hands high, as if to surrender.
After Yang Huan and Prince William both sat down, they were still excited.
"It's not that Skrtel is too bad, the key is to see who his opponent is!"
"That's right!" Prince William also excitedly responded to Yang Huan's words, "In this world, does that central defender not have a headache when he encounters Drogba? He is considered a good one. Only ten eight were entered!"
This is a bit of an exaggeration, but Drogba is really scary!
The middle-aged man had nothing to do, he gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and confessed!
"Okay, I'm willing to admit defeat, I'll find someone after the game is over!"
As soon as he said this, many people around him immediately started booing.
"There's no need to choose a location, it's done on my yacht!"
"Hamad got out of the yacht, and I'll take care of the rest."
The middle-aged man was stunned, "What about me?"
Prince William chuckled, "Isn't that easy? Gavin, you are responsible for inviting guests!"
When it comes to the guests, several of them were obviously ambiguous.
"OK! No problem, this is my strength!" The middle-aged man named Gavin nodded with a smile.
After laughing, Gavin looked at Yang Huan, "Master Huan, are you coming?"
Yang Huan laughed, but shook his head, "Hey, that kind of occasion is not suitable for me, I like pure girls!"
When he said this, everyone burst into laughter.
The people who will go to this kind of party are basically buses.
It doesn't suit Mr. Huan's taste.
"How could Young Master Huan like those vulgar fans?"
"That's right, there is no shortage of beautiful women around Young Master Huan!"
"It's not only us poor singles who have to go to this kind of party!"
That said, but which of these guys is not so excited?
You know, Gavin Patterson is a well-known ** brother in the City of London, and is famous for being suave.
The beauties he found were not female stars or models, but at least a girl from the third edition of "Baidu Qihang Xifei".
After all, they are all celebrities!
Isn't there a word to say?
Oh, right!
"There's nothing wrong with unbuttoning one button, it's indecent to unbutton two buttons, and the person who unbuttons three buttons is Gavin Patterson!"
After thinking about it carefully, it felt a little sour, but it also confirmed Gavin Patterson's character very well.
Only with this kind of character can he be able to talk to young people in their twenties at the age of forty.
Yang Huan's refusal made Gavin a little disappointed, because among this group of people, he valued this young master Huan the most.
Looking at Prince William again, he pouted, "It goes without saying, if Young Master Huan is not going, you must also..."
Prince William likes to join in the fun, but he is afraid of himself. He will definitely not dare to go to this kind of social gathering.
If Yang Huan is willing to go, he still has an excuse. If Yang Huan does not go, if he dares to go, he must kneel on the washboard for a few days when he gets home!
"It's okay, you guys have fun!" Yang Huan said with a smile.
"That's not good, I lost the bet to you, you can't get any spoils, right?"
Yang Huan smiled lightly and said nothing more.
"Just think it's for the welfare of my brothers!"
"In this way, look for an opportunity, let's find another opportunity to go to Hollywood in the United States another day, I guarantee that you will return with a full reward!"
"Really or not?" Before the party concerned made a statement, Hamad immediately became excited.
His appearance makes people wonder, is there no woman in Qatar?
"Is this kind of thing normal in Hollywood?" Gavin chuckled.
Yang Huan is not surprised, this kind of thing is normal in any entertainment circle.
He has also heard that when the Transformers three crew came to China to promote, director Michael Bay and the heroine lingered all the way in the first-class cabin of the plane, and they were very aboveboard.
This kind of thing is not considered an unspoken rule in Hollywood, it is called the rules of the game in other people's place!
"Then I'm going!" Hamad immediately signed up first.
"The listeners have a share, and I'll go too!" Hugh Grosvenor also immediately signed up.
It seems that men, especially rich men, like female stars, the same way all over the world.
But don't get me wrong and think this Gavin is a pimp.
In fact, Gavin's full name is Gavin Patterson, the current CEO of British state-owned British Telecom.
Gavin Patterson's fault is flirtatiousness. It's no secret since he was a marketing executive at Procter & Gamble in the United States. After returning to the UK ten years ago, he joined British Telecom, starting from the middle and gradually improving. .
After becoming the CEO, the first decision he made was to use all the resources of BT to compete with Sky TV, ENSP and other companies for the live broadcast resources of the Premier League and the Champions League.
And use these two high-quality resources to attract and retain as many broadband users as possible!
This path is precisely what Sky TV set out in the past.
This is a gamble for Gavin Patterson.
Win the bet, and his BT chief executive will make a name for himself.
If the bet is lost, not only will he have to pack up and leave, but even British Telecom will suffer.
But for Gavin Patterson's big gamble, Yang Huan felt that whether he won or lost, this guy did a good job.
At the very least, he dares to bet!
After negotiating about going to Hollywood to play, the topic of the two sides returned to the football game.
Gavin Patterson has been a die-hard Liverpool fan since he was a child, so just before the start of the game, he coaxed that he wanted to gamble with Yang Huan, and the loser would be treated as a guest, but he lost.
This is all complaints and helplessness about Liverpool's current situation.
No, they are two goals behind, and they haven't improved at all.
"The midfield is too bad!" Gavin? Patterson did not understand the ball.
After all, it's an old fan of thirty or forty years!
Unluckily, I met Southampton, who has a superb midfield!
This set of midfielders of the Saints, even in the Premier League, is the level and strength of the top four.
That's why so many people expect that Southampton will spoil the Premier League next season!
Mentioned football, gradually, the topic talked about other places.
Gavin Patterson mentioned that BT's programming department is very interested in the self-media program [Off the Field] hosted by Charlene Laheri, and hopes to cooperate with Yang Huan.
Although the show is owned by Charlene Laheri, whether it is investment, operation or copyright, it belongs to Yang Huan's company.
For this, Yang Huan certainly will not refuse, and he can make no money and open up his fame, a good thing!
It is not difficult to see the embarrassment of British Telecom from this point, and the lack of quality programs.
"It seems that you are determined to win the broadcast rights of the Premier League!" Yang Huan said with a smile.
Gavin Patterson smiled bitterly: "The competitors are too strong, and I'm afraid they may not be able to grab the prime time from noon to the evening on Saturday."
From noon to the evening on Saturday, the number of viewers between "Baidu No Sailing Text" was twice as large as usual, which is the prime time of the Premier League live broadcast.
At the same time, it is also a time period that various TV stations aim to win.
Although British Telecom is a state-owned enterprise, it is still inferior to Sky TV in terms of deep pockets.
If Yang Huan remembered correctly, among the seven packages, Sky TV always won the five most valuable packages, and the remaining two were taken by competitors.
This is also because of the anti-monopoly law, which stipulates that Sky TV can only win five shares at most. Otherwise, other companies should not expect to get a share of the pie.
Do you want broadcast rights then?
Yes, you can cooperate with Sky TV, and it depends on the face of Mr. Murdoch.
The Premier League is doing this, and it is more or less suspected of suppressing Sky TV.
After all, a single family is not a good thing.
"Perhaps, you can think about it and join forces!"
"Joint vertical and horizontal?" Gavin Patterson was stunned for a moment, not understanding.
Yang Huan laughed, this is the wisdom of the old sect of China more than 2,000 years ago.
"As far as I know, BeIN Sports and Eurosport are both willing to tap the UK pay TV market and are also very interested in Premier League broadcast rights."
That's normal because the UK pay TV pie is too big.
Sky TV claims to have more than 8 million users, and its annual net profit is as high as one billion pounds and ten billion yuan.
Just imagine, how could other competitors not salivate?
Like BeIN Sports, it is backed by the Qatar Investment Authority, has a lot of money and wants to go to England, and is also interested in the broadcast rights of the Premier League.
Because everyone knows that in the UK pay TV market, without the Premier League broadcast rights, you have no core competitiveness.
"Master Huan, do you mean to cooperate with them?" Gavin Patterson knew it at all.
Yang Huan nodded and said with a smile: "Your core business is broadband, Premier League broadcasts are even provided for free to broadband users, and their core business is pay TV, and you are not in the same order as Sky TV now. Wouldn't it be great to compete with Sky TV?"
Gavin Patterson was a little moved.
In the past, there were rivals with Sky TV, such as being independent, but in the end, they could not stop Sky TV, which was rich and powerful.
Because at the time of bidding, all the good resources were won by Sky TV at a high price. Competitors could only bid for the worst two packages, and they also had to pay high fees, which led to an increase in operating costs.
The end result is that it is difficult to maintain.
Since the anti-monopoly of Premier League broadcast rights, Sky TV's competitors have changed several times.
But only Sky TV still stands out from the crowd.
In this way, if you want to compete with Sky TV, you have to rely on a company, I am afraid there is no way.
Thinking of this, Gavin Patterson looked at Yang Huan again, who glanced at Hamad.
They are all human beings, and Patterson knew immediately.
It seems that Master Huan is reminding himself that he has to have a good relationship with the little prince of Qatar.
It's terrifying to think about!
How long has this young master Huan been in the UK, but such a large group of people has already gathered around him.
There are both traditional aristocrats like Prince William and Hugh Grosvenor, upstarts like John Corker, and second-generation wealthy Middle Eastern consortiums like Hamad.
At first glance, it seems to be a group of rich second-generation organizations that eat, drink, and have fun, but once they really decide to do something, I believe that there is really nothing in this world that can make it difficult for them.
Recently, such a saying has been circulating in the City of London.
There are good investment projects and plans, don't go to those venture capital firms in the City of London.
Go to Ting Yuxuan in Southampton and find the Saints fan club!
At the very least, the rich second-generation members of the Saints fan club have more funds, more relaxed conditions, and higher levels of freedom.
Most importantly, they are not afraid to lose money!
Exactly, at this time, below the court, the referee Dodd blew the whistle for the end of the first half of the game.
Southampton temporarily led Liverpool 2-0 with two goals from Sturridge and Drogba.
But judging from the situation in the first half, unless Dalglish suddenly makes a surprising change during the half-time break, Liverpool will be powerless in this game.
Yang Huan stood up from his seat and glanced at Gavin Patterson, who was in deep thought behind him, and laughed in his heart.
It seems simple, easy, and even sensible, but for a big company like BT, it's not an easy decision to make.
But if this is done, the competition for the broadcast rights of the Premier League will be more intense, and the broadcast fee will definitely rise.
This is good for Southampton too!
"I'll go down there and see!"
Yang Huan left the royal box with a smile and walked down the stairs.
He planned to go to Zhuang Ziqing, who sat with Sun Yue and others in the executive stand in Southampton.
But when he walked to the aisle of the stands on the first floor, the oncoming person surprised him. (To be continued) [] If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the Creation Chinese website to give a reward and click. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
