China Entertainment 2000

"Hong Kong Stars Charity Football Match? Isn't that from Hong Kong? What does it have to do with you?"

After communicating with the company about the release of the concert DVD, Elva Hsiao looked up at the man quite unexpectedly.

"Who knows, maybe because I'm so popular and I know how to play football, I was invited to play for about half a game. I happened to be in Hong Kong during this time."

Zhou Yi, who was bored and turned to write in his spare time, shrugged noncommittally: "Recently it is a critical period for the national football team to compete in the World Cup, and the popularity is very high."

Touching the turf of the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup finals is not an unattainable dream for this national football team. After learning from the failure experience of the previous one, the new national football head coach Milu, who took office in February this year, has given China Bringing an unparalleled football storm——

So far, the top ten teams have not lost a single game in the group stage, and they have great hope of qualifying strongly and reaching the finals of the 2002 World Cup.

With this kind of popularity, Zhou Yi was criticized across borders by the main defender Fan Zhiyi of the national football team because of his 13:0 football meme. It is not incomprehensible that the Hong Kong Stars Charity Football Tournament would seek out him to gain popularity.

After all, this thing is essentially just a show, and all it wants is exposure.

Elva Hsiao, who doesn't know much about football but understands the popularity of the World Cup, nodded as if understanding: "Will Xie Tingfeng participate? You two are having a fierce fight in the media now."

If she were the organizer and invited Zhou Yi, she would have to invite Xie Tingfeng as well, even if it was just for one show.

This is a rare confrontation between the same age in the Chinese music world, a British prince and a Warner prince. It's hard to say what his personality is in private, but in terms of external performance, he is as young and energetic as anyone else.

In reality, the two have basically been in the same frame so far at last year's Global Chinese Charts and Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs award shows. Other than that, they are basically in the same frame.

"I don't know, but the news that Qianjiang has received is that the organizer has indeed invited Xie Tingfeng. As for whether he will go, I don't know, unless he is willing to be hit by my dimensionality reduction."

As if thinking of a funny scene, the corners of Zhou Yi's mouth rose uncontrollably.

No matter how much he talks about worldliness and puts things aside, the basic skills are here, and now Xie Tingfeng can play hammer football.

"When are you going to play? If you have time, I will go to the scene and be a cheerleader to help you cheer up. You Warners don't have many female stars who can hold up the scene. The only one who can handle the whole game is Sammi Cheng."

As the daughter of Viking, Elva Hsiao said carelessly that she could be a cheerleader.

"After 14 days, you can do whatever you want if you have enough time."

Just as he was talking, Zhou Yi received a call from his agent——

"What did you say?"

……………………………………………………

"I'm going to the football game?"

Emperor's Building, Huo Wenxi's office.

Xie Tingfeng, who has not yet passed his 21st birthday and is still 20 years old according to the international age calculation, looked at his agent, and a look of disbelief suddenly appeared in his young eyes: "But I don't know how to play football at all."

I can't play at all. Isn't that a lazy ass--it's embarrassing to go around in circles?

"It is precisely because you don't know how to play that the company decided to find a new fan base for you through this charity match. Football is currently the most popular sport in the country. Didn't you see that Zhou Yi got an endorsement from Anta because of football? A contract?"

Huo Wenxi, who knew Xie Tingfeng's character, advised him earnestly: "It is well known that Zhou Yi plays football at a very high level. It is not shameful to lose to him.

"The company will also help you promote that you are a newcomer to football, and it is only because you have a charitable heart that you will accept the invitation to participate in the game at the risk of being squeezed.

“In this way, not only will you not be criticized for not being good at football, but you will be able to gain points for yourself by lowering public expectations.

"If you think about it, it's common for Zhou Yi to score goals. If he doesn't score, it's news. But isn't it normal for you, a person who can't play football, not to score goals? You just did it for charity. If you go on stage, the public will be very tolerant of you.

"And once you score one or two goals with your own hard work and hard work on the court, it will be a good thing."

"..."

The young Xie Tingfeng was immediately silenced.

This seems to make sense?

"The main thing is the heat, the heat."

Seeing that Xie Tingfeng was showing signs of wavering, Huo Wenxi hurriedly pursued the victory: "The recent popularity of "Meteor Garden" over in Baodao has exceeded the company's expectations. After leaving Baodao, this boy band cultivated by idol dramas is extremely popular. May capture some of your Asian market.

"From this aspect, you and Zhou Yi have a common interest, which is to create as much heat for yourself as possible to suppress the threat of F4 in "Meteor Garden" to you as much as possible.

"From another perspective, it can also reduce the negative news attention on you."

In the music world, neither Zhou Yi nor Xie Tingfeng can keep away from the other for the time being, and if they use their performance in the music world for marketing, Xie Tingfeng will easily fall behind Zhou Yi if he is not careful.

This is something the Emperor does not want to see.

Putting aside the two people's main battlefield, the music world, football is a booming sports field, which is very suitable. They can also market Xie Tingfeng as a sports genius——

For example, you have only learned to play football for a few days and you are already doing well.

"...I understand, then I will learn the basics of football in the next few days."

Knowing that he couldn't resist the company, Xie Tingfeng also adjusted his mentality. Anyway, he couldn't play the whole game. There were so many celebrities, so he could cool down.

A few days ago, he got excited and spent a huge amount of money to take a special license plate and give it to Faye Wong. The news made a lot of noise. Many media directly criticized him for extravagance and waste, which made him very annoyed.

Soon, July 20th.

After arranging for Nicholas Tse, Emperor officially announced that its artist Nicholas Tse will contribute to charity and choose to participate in the celebrity charity football match——

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

Because just three hours ago, Warner just officially announced that its artist Zhou Yi will be invited to participate in the Hong Kong Star Football Charity Match.

Hong Kong media reported this more directly——

"The two prides confront each other head-on!" The Emperor asked God to break the gossip! 》

"The two prides in the music world are going to become the two prides in the football world?! How could I have such a dream?!"

“I thought that these two people might fight each other for several years or even ten years in the music world before they can officially decide the winner. I also thought that these two people might compete in the film field.

"But I never thought that the first time these two faced each other would be on a football field?!"

"Xie Tingfeng doesn't seem to know how to play football at all, right? If I remember correctly, his father said that playing football would make him shorter. So Xie Tingfeng was not allowed to play when he was a child?"

"..."

Thanks to the existence of the Internet, the moment the news was announced, the noisy chat rooms and forums suddenly became a lot quieter. It was obvious that even the fans were shocked by the news.

Then came the war between Zhouyi fans and Xie Tingfeng fans——

"Zhou Yi, please be more powerful and send a soft-boiled boy to celebrate Children's Day!!"

"Fart! This is for charity, do you still have a sense of public morality?! You only care about the results!"

As soon as the news was announced, even the most optimistic fans of Xie Tingfeng did not dare to dream that their idol could beat Zhou Yi on the football field. But after seeing the Emperor announce that the reason why Xie Tingfeng participated in the competition was to do his part for charity, it was so touching.

This kind of spirit of knowing what cannot be done but doing it is a role model for contemporary young people!

Under the deliberate guidance of the Emperor, Xie Tingfeng, who had never had a good image in public opinion, made it to the top of the wave for the first time. You don’t care if you will be embarrassed if you play for charity, so what else is there to blame?

He is still just a twenty-year-old kid!

Under Yang Shoucheng's instructions, female artists from the Emperor's family came forward one after another to express their admiration for Nicholas Tse's courage and style. Many female artists who were close to Emperor even publicly stated that they would be cheerleaders for Nicholas Tse's team that day.

Among them are even heavyweight female artists like Anita Mui and Wang Mingquan.

Warner immediately sensed something was wrong, and also first asked the company's top sister Sammi Cheng to express her love for watching Zhou Yi play football, and then also found a lot of female celebrities to support Zhou Yi.

But in terms of quality, Emperor, which has deep roots in Hong Kong, is obviously higher.

After all, Hong Kong was still the most popular actress in the country in the 1980s and 1990s.

This huge showdown between the "Two Prides of Football" has not even started yet, but fans from both sides have already taken the lead in comparing the cheerleaders.

Thanks to the joint hype between Warner and Emperor, portals such as Sina, NetEase, and Tencent, which began to carry Hong Kong news, almost lost their traffic.

So much so that Chai Zhiping, who took Treasure Island's "Meteor Garden" F4 out to participate in events, unexpectedly discovered that F4's popularity in Hong Kong this time was not as high as her survey.

Even the mainland media only briefly mentioned it when Baodao F4 landed in Hong Kong, focusing on Zhou Yi and Xie Tingfeng.

Chai Zhiping: "..."
