Chapter 383: The Man Who Unbuttoned the Three Buttons
'Nemanja Matic got the ball and the Liverpool midfielder pressed.
"Pass, Vidal, get past Henderson and cross to Stroman"
'Southampton's midfielder is skilful with a kick'
"Stroman passes to Neymar, the Brazilian cuts to the middle and goes through"
"Ball behind you, Drogba"
It was seen that when Neymar cut inside with the ball, Drogba suddenly cut diagonally into the left rib of the penalty area from the middle.
Neymar hit a scalpel-like through ball that was just right at Drogba's feet.
"Stop, left-footed volley, the ball goes in"
“goaLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL”
"Drogba, Drogba, 37th minute, Drogba scored another goal for Southampton, 2-0"
The whole Wembley Stadium was completely fried
All of a sudden, all the Saints fans were cheering wildly
At the critical moment, after a long attack, Drogba made a crucial left-footed volley that once again penetrated Liverpool's goal
The moment Drogba scored, the entire Royal Box cheered.
Especially Yang Huan, Prince William, Hamad and Hugh Grosvenor, who were sitting in the middle, stood up excitedly and high-fived again and again in celebration.
Sitting behind them, a handsome and dashing man slapped his forehead hard, looking quite annoyed, and kept shaking his head.
"What the hell did Skrtel do today? This kind of ball can't be guarded" The middle-aged man raised his hands high, as if he wanted to surrender.
After Yang Huan and Prince William both sat down, they were still excited.
"It's not that Skrtel is too bad, it's about who he meets against"
"That's right," Prince William also responded excitedly to Yang Huan's words, "In this world, the central defender doesn't have a headache when he encounters Drogba?" He's considered good, if he met someone who didn't fight, he would have been put into ten or eight a long time ago."
It's an exaggeration, but Drogba is terrible
The middle-aged man ran out of ideas, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and confessed
"Okay, I'm willing to bet and lose, I'll find someone after the game"
As soon as he said this, many people around him immediately followed suit.
"You don't have to choose a location, just do it on my yacht"
"Hamad is out of the yacht, and I'll take care of the rest."
The middle-aged man was stunned, "What about me?" ”
Prince William smiled, "Isn't that simple?" Gavin, you're in charge of inviting guests."
Speaking of guests, several of them were obviously very ambiguous.
"Okay, no problem, it's my forte," the middle-aged man named Gavin nodded with a smile.
After laughing, Gavin looked at Yang Huan, "Young Master Huan, are you coming?" ”
Yang Huan laughed, but shook his head, "Eh, that kind of occasion is not for me, I like pure girls"
As soon as he said this, everyone burst into laughter.
The people who will go to this kind of party are basically buses, which are not in line with Young Master Huan's taste.
"How could Young Master Huan look down on those vulgar fans?"
"That is, there is no shortage of beauties around Young Master Huan"
"Only we poor single dogs are going to this kind of party."
That said, but which of these guys is not too excited?
You know, Gavin Paterson is a famous playboy in the City of London, and he is famous for his suaveness.
The beauties he found were not female stars or models, at least they had to be third-edition girls.
In short, all celebrities
Isn't there a sentence to say?
Oh yes
"It's okay to undo one button, it's unseemly to undo two, and the person who unbuttons three is Gavin Patterson"
When I look back on these words carefully, I feel a little sour, but they also confirm Gavin's character very well.
Only this kind of character can make him 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.
looked at Prince William again and pursed his lips, "Needless to say, if Young Master Huan doesn't go, you will definitely ...... too."
Prince William likes to join in the fun, but he is afraid of inwardness, and 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, Yang Huan doesn't go, if he dares to go, he will definitely have to kneel on the washboard for a few days when he goes 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 loot, right?"
Yang Huan smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.
"Think of it for the benefit of my brothers"
"In this way, find a chance, let's find another opportunity to go to Hollywood another day, and I will ensure that you return with a full load"
"Really?" Before the person concerned could express his position, Hamad was immediately excited.
His appearance makes people wonder if there are no women in Qatar?
"This kind of thing is normal in Hollywood, okay?" Gavin laughed.
Yang Huan is not surprised, this kind of thing is normal in any entertainment industry.
He also once 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 of the plane, and they were very open.
This kind of thing is not an unspoken rule in Hollywood, this is called the rules of the game in other people's places
"Then I'm going," Hamad was the first to sign up at once.
"If you have a share, I'll go too" Hugh o Grosvenor also immediately signed up.
It seems that men, especially rich men, like female stars, all over the world.
But don't get me wrong, think this Gavin is pimping.
In fact, Gavin's full name is Gavin Paterson, and he is currently the executive officer of British telecom, a British state-owned enterprise.
It's no secret that Gavin Paterson's fault is that he was a marketing executive at Procter & Gamble in the United States, and after returning to the UK ten years ago, he joined BT, starting at the middle level and working his way up the ranks.
After becoming an executive officer, the first decision he made was to use all the resources of British Telecom and compete with Sky TV, E8 and other companies for the live broadcast of the British and Champions League matches.
And use these two high-quality resources to attract and retain as many broadband users as possible
This road is exactly what Sky TV walked out of back then.
It was definitely a big gamble for Gavin Patterson.
If he wins the bet, then he, the executive of British Telecom, will become famous.
If he loses the bet, not only will he have to pack up and leave, but even British Telecom will suffer.
But for Gavin Pat Terson's big gamble, Yang Huan felt that whether he won or lost, this guy was doing well.
At the very least, he dared to bet
After talking about going to Hollywood, the conversation returned to the football game.
Gavin Paterson has been a die-hard Liverpool fan since he was a child, so just before the game, he coaxed and said that he wanted to gamble with Yang Huan, and the loser would be treated, but he lost.
This is a complaint and helplessness about the current situation of Liverpool.
No, they are two goals behind, and they haven't improved in the slightest.
"The midfield is terrible," said Gavin Patterson, who doesn't understand the ball.
After all, it's been a fan for thirty or forty years
However, he met Southampton, who had a strong midfield group
The Saints' midfield, even if it is placed in the English League, is the level and strength of the top four.
That's why so many people are looking forward to Southampton's next season in England to disrupt the situation
When it comes to football, gradually, the conversation moves on to something else.
Gavin Paterson mentioned that the program department of British Telecom is very interested in the self-media program [Off-site] hosted by Charlene Lahri, and hopes to cooperate with Yang Huan.
Although the show is Charlene Lahri's, whether it is investment, operation or copyright, it belongs to Yang Huan's company.
For this, of course Yang Huan will not refuse, he can make money, and he can open up fame, which is a good thing
From this point, it is not difficult to see the embarrassment of BT, the lack of quality programming.
"It seems that you are determined to obtain the broadcasting rights to the UK," Yang Huan said with a smile.
Gavin Pat Terson smiled bitterly: "The competition is too strong, and I am afraid that I may not be able to grab it during the prime time from noon to evening on Saturday." ”
From noon to evening on Saturday, the number of viewers is twice as large as usual, which is the prime time for live broadcasts in the UK.
At the same time, it is also a time period that each TV station is aiming to get.
Although BT is a state-owned enterprise, it is still inferior to Sky TV in terms of wealth.
If Yang Huan remembers correctly, among the seven packages, Sky TV always won the five most valuable ones, and the remaining two were grabbed by competitors.
This is also because of anti-monopoly restrictions, which stipulate that Sky TV can only win a maximum of five shares, otherwise, other companies should not expect to get a piece of the pie at all
Want broadcast rights then?
Yes, if you want to cooperate with Sky TV, what number of shows and time slots will be given, it depends on the face of Uncle Murdoch.
In doing so, the British Alliance is more or less suspected of suppressing Sky TV.
After all, it's not a good thing for one family to be dominant.
"Perhaps, you can consider it, and combine the vertical and horizontal"
"Vertical and horizontal?" Gavin patterson was stunned and didn't understand.
Yang Huan laughed, this is the wisdom of the Chinese ancestors more than 2,000 years ago.
"As far as I know, both BeIN Sports and Eurosport are interested in tapping into the UK pay TV market and are very interested in UK broadcasting rights."
This is all too normal, because the pie of pay TV in the UK is too big.
Sky TV claims to have more than 8 million subscribers, and its annual net profit is as high as 1 billion pounds, 10 billion yuan.
Just imagine, how can other competitors not salivate?
Like BeIN Sports, with the support of the Qatar Investment Authority behind it, it has a lot of money to break into the UK, and it is also interested in the UK's broadcasting rights.
Because everyone knows that in the British pay TV market, without English broadcast rights, you have no core competitiveness.
"Young Master Huan, what do you mean, cooperating with them?" Gavin Pat Terson is a little clear.
Yang Huan nodded and smiled: "Your core business is broadband, English broadcasting is even provided free to broadband users, and their core business is pay TV, and you are not in the same order of magnitude as Sky TV now, wouldn't it be good to work together to compete with Sky TV?" ”
Gavin Patterson was a little moved when he heard this.
In the past, there were also those that competed with Sky TV, such as independence, but in the end, they couldn't stop Sky TV, which had deep pockets.
Because at the time of the auction, the good resources were won by Sky TV at a high price, and the competitors could only bid for the two worst packages, and they also had to pay high fees, and the operating costs of the guide increased.
The end result is that it is difficult to maintain.
Since the anti-monopoly of broadcasting rights in the UK, Sky TV's competitors have changed several times.
But only Sky TV is still proud and outstanding.
In this way, if you want to compete with Sky TV, you have to rely on one company, and I'm afraid there is no way.
Thinking of this, Gavin Pat Terson looked at Yang Huan again, who glanced at Hamad.
It's all human spirits, and Patterson immediately knows it.
It seems that Young Master Huan is reminding himself that he has to have a good relationship with this little Qatari prince Lala.
It's scary to think about
This young master Huan has only been in the UK for a long time, but there are already such a large number of people gathered around him.
There are traditional aristocrats like Prince William and Hugh Grovener, upstarts like John, and rich second generations of Middle Eastern conglomerates 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 be difficult to stop them.
Recently, there is such a saying in the City of London.
Have good investment projects and plans, and don't go to the venture capital firms in the City of London.
Go to Southampton to listen to the rain and find the Saints fan club
At the very least, the rich second generation of the Saints fan club give more money, more relaxed conditions, and a higher degree of freedom.
Most importantly, they are not afraid of losing money
At this time, at the bottom of the pitch, referee Dodd blew the whistle for the end of the first half.
Southampton temporarily led Liverpool 2-0 thanks to two goals from Sturridge and Drogba.
But judging from the situation in the first half, unless Dalglish suddenly made a shocking change at halftime, Liverpool may not be able to recover from this game.
Yang Huan stood up from his seat and glanced at Gavin Beatson behind him, who was deep in thought, and laughed in his heart.
It seems simple, easy, and even sensible, but for a company as big as BT, it is not easy to make such a decision.
But if this is really done, the competition for broadcasting rights in the UK will be more intense, and the broadcast fee will definitely rise.
It's also good for Southampton
"I'll take a look below"
Yang Huan left the royal box with a smile and walked down the stairs.
He was going to find Zhuang Ziqing, who was sitting in the executive stand area of Southampton with Sun Yue and others.
But when he walked to the aisle of the first floor of the stands, he was taken aback by the oncoming people.
