Chapter 332: Make up for shortcomings

Isabella originally wanted to buy the Chelsea club, but Ken Bates managed to bring Chelsea back from the brink of death, and naturally refused to sell her efforts easily.
From the mid-sixties to the mid-seventies, it should be regarded as Chelsea’s first glorious period. The Blues won the club’s first league championship, the first FA Cup, and the European Cup Winners’ Cup in this decade. It can be said that the evolution from an ordinary London team to one of the strong teams in the Greater London area has been completed.
But these honours are still not comparable to Arsenal and Tottenham. The "London Derby" in the 1980s actually did not have as much attention in the future, and the top three in London have never been stronger.
Chelsea fell into a trough at the end of the 1970s and didn't start to recover until it was sold to Bates for a pound a few years ago, but they played in the second division last year.
This year, thanks to the large number of cost-effective young players unearthed by the head coach John Neal, Chelsea finally returned to the League, and rushed into the European war integration zone in one fell swoop. Now there is hope to qualify for the European war next season.
This result is already very proud of, but compared with Arsenal, which took off directly this year, there is almost no star like Chelsea, and the team is full of cost-effective young players. There is really no wind and no waves. To put it bluntly, it means "can't raise far sails and make waves."
The League Cup final was also held at the "Wembley Stadium". On the day of the match, a total of 100,000 fans were squeezed in by both sides, but almost all the Gunners in the game were seen triumphantly wearing the new red jerseys. , Flaunting power, almost mocking his face!
The Blues fans are of course very angry, but the difference in strength between the two sides is too obvious!
Today Wu Jie didn't even exert much effort. Laudrup and Lineker, both young players, eclipsed Chelsea's entire youth army.
Laudrup's performance in this game was very dazzling. The Danish genius was in the light of Wu Jie for the first time and still let people focus on himself, which is already a very remarkable performance.
Today, 3 of the 5 goals Arsenal scored in the game were assisted by him. An assist hat-trick made Laudrup only one less than Wu Jie on the assist list.
After the start of the game, just in the 7th minute, Laudrup sent a precise pass after a breakthrough in the middle. Lineker succeeded in offside and broke into the penalty area with a small angle and shot the far corner!
Losing the ball so quickly made a group of young Chelsea players impatient, coupled with the already nervous mood, the two-phase superposition caused only five minutes later, Chelsea central defender Field was astute because of a pass error. Wu Jie intercepted, then speeded up the ball and rushed into the penalty area to face the goalkeeper with a single shot.
The Chelsea fans on the scene, including the Chelsea players on the field, both burst at this moment.
Since then, Arsenal kept Chelsea on the ground until the end of the game. In the end, Wu Jie, Laudrup and Covance scored a goal each. Lineker scored twice and Arsenal easily stepped on the same city 5:0 Derby opponents in different regions won the first League Cup in club history.
You read that right, this is the first time Arsenal have won the League Cup.
Although Arsenal in the 1980s had a much stronger background than Chelsea, they were also a poor old rich man in England, and the glorious period has been very far away, and most of the original witnesses have already landed.
At the same time, Manchester United is half better than Arsenal in terms of background. At least they won the Champions League 20 years ago. Their results in the European war after World War II were far better than Arsenal, and they were also in League One after World War II. In the glorious period, strictly speaking, it was half a level higher than the upcoming Barcelona.
That's what Manchester United fans think. They sneered at the Catalan media reporting that Barcelona is the top European team.
The English media also believe that Barcelona has almost nothing to achieve in the European war. They have neither a Champions League nor a UEFA Cup, or even a Winner’s Cup. It is nothing more than some domestic league and cup championships. The number is far inferior to Real Madrid.
How can such a team with almost no European results be considered a top European team?
On the other hand, no matter how you look at Manchester United, it is a top European team that is higher than Barcelona in all aspects. This includes many European media and even Spanish media.
Spain's only strong team recognized by Europe is Real Madrid, so two days ago, Liverpool was beaten 1-0 by Real Madrid at home. The English media also knew that Real Madrid did have this strength while criticizing Liverpool.
But you also want to retire in England in Barcelona. Do you really think that England has no one?
However, it was not long before the slogan was shouted. Before the end of the first half, Lin Yaodong shot the goal with a shocking "elevator ball", which directly plunged Old Trafford into the familiar silence again.
This kick is also too familiar to Manchester United fans-ultra-long shooting distance, ultra-violent sudden drop, ultra-outrageous violent line change, is this not Wu Jie's representative "elevator ball"?
Lin Yaodong also showed an incredible expression for an instant after scoring a goal. This is the first time in his career that he has played an "elevator ball" with changing lines!
His "elevator ball" skills are only four and a half stars, including the "banana ball" and "deciduous ball" are also four and a half stars, all of which are so much worse than Wu Jie.
But don't look at the skill gap of only half a star. Putting these free kick stunts is equivalent to hiding every set of peerless martial arts assassins.
This is similar to how the masters who pass on martial arts will hide one hand. This hand is often a killer move, but it is the essence of the whole martial arts concentration. It is also a killer that can kill the apprentice at a critical moment. It will only be passed down before death.
Lin Yaodong would not be the killer of this line change, and he has never played the "lift ball" with line change.
But the four-and-a-half-star skill is stronger than the four-star skill. If you play more times, it can still be a rare one.
However, this ratio is much worse than that of Wu Jie. If Wu Jie can play this perfect elevator ball at least a few times every season, then Lin Yaodong will have to cover it once in a few seasons.
Lin Yaodong's "perfect elevator ball" can be called the masterpiece of his career, the most coincidental is that the victim is the unfortunate Manchester United, and the more unfortunate Gary Bailey.
Gary Bailey is really depressed now, he can still be regarded as honor once, but being kicked twice in a month is really not honorable. This TM is pure luck!
The final score was not too big, a very utilitarian 1:0, which shows that the game was not so exciting.
Today, Barcelona won by Lin Yaodong. With his extraterrestrial elevator ball in the first half, and the brave performance in front of the goal of the whole audience, he was almost alone. Both ends destroyed Manchester United's life and helped the team to advance smoothly with a total score of 2:0 in two rounds.
The English media were naturally dumbfounded after the game, but it wasn't because of the groundbreaking free kick, but because they could play like this for the first time in a game, and the goalkeeper could still play like this? ?
They watched a lot about the defense by the goalkeeper, but the goal depends on the goalkeeper, and even the offense also depends on the goalkeeper. Is that something new and unheard of? !
However, this is how Barcelona played today, and Lin Yaodong's gameplay is even more outrageous!
His high resistance in front of the goal is still a reasonable play of a top goalkeeper, but that free kick was the operation that thundered that day.
But this is still not the most excessive. What really subverts the British world view is that this guy almost never stays in the penalty area honestly in the whole game. Every time he is shot, except for Manchester United launching a fast break, the other time is this bastard. They were all outside the penalty area. Not only did they ran to the midfield several times to watch the excitement, but even passed their center Mark Hughes once with the ball in the midfield. This makes the English really have to doubt that he is naked. Provocation!
However, with such a jump, such a wave, such a pretentious play and position, Lin Yaodong did not lose his position in the whole game. As long as Manchester United really brought the ball up, he would appear in a position that made Manchester United extremely disgusting, and then Manchester United The players' various shots are all blocked out.
In particular, Manchester United's high-altitude ball passed into the penalty area was almost never a threat today, and all of them were confiscated from the sky by this tall and long Chinese goal.
This is tantamount to England's high-altitude play. Manchester United failed to score a goal in the two rounds, almost because of this unsolvable Chinese goalkeeper.
After the Manchester League, they also admitted that they were defeated by this angry and helpless goalkeeper.
And such an outrageous and bizarre, but more amazing goalkeeper, also left a very deep impression on all England fans. I really don't know what Arsenal will look like when they meet Barcelona?
But then the British fans felt a bit of sadness, because Liverpool had already lost to Real Madrid at home the day before, and it is likely that the end of the month will be more unfortunate.
Today Manchester United was directly eliminated by Barcelona. The Spaniard is really disgusting!
But soon everyone discovered that the most hateful is not the Spaniards, but the leaders of these two teams are all Chinese!
The various media under Isabella’s control decisively fired at this time. First of all, Chen Haonan and Lin Yaodong were used to set the rhythm, and the main contradiction was placed on Lin Yaodong, who is the most hated.
After the game, this guy didn't show the slightest low-key appearance. The whole time he was angry with the English media, which can be regarded as full of hatred for Wu Jiela.
"Boss, have you watched my game?"
Lin Yaodong was very proud to call Wu Jie after the game, but Wu Jie knew that this kind of hatred was deliberately done, because this was his idea, otherwise, what's the use of tool people!
The media under Isabella cooperated to stage a scene of thief shouting and catching the thief, deliberately drawing anger towards Lin Yaodong, in order to let him attract the hatred of the British for herself.
Lin Yaodong's call was not to show off to Wu Jie that he had won the game, but to show off that he had cut Nintendo again.
Lin Yaodong is now the richest man in China who is richer than Wu Jie. His Yaodong Group has three companies. Lenovo focuses on domestic software and hardware research and development, and has developed a Chinese character input method and supporting Lenovo Chinese character extensions. Card, and the domestic Chinese character DOS system that composes a suit to use.
This Chinese suit can be said to be the basic framework of domestic computers. With it, Lenovo can use it as a Chinese platform to develop more Chinese office software, and then establish a Chinese IT ecosystem in the 1980s. .
Of course, Lenovo is not satisfied with only developing a Chinese system. They have developed a multilingual spreadsheet software Lotus1-2-3 that is ready to be installed on Compaq’s latest commercial machines. This will be the most popular Lenovo in the European and American markets. After CAD software, they went abroad for another battle.
At this time, I have to mention another subsidiary of "Yaodong Group", which acquired 60% of Compaq Computer at the end of 1982.
This American computer company, founded by Jimmy Harris and Bill Merton in early 1982 with only $2,000, will become the world's largest PC manufacturing company at its peak in the future. It will be IBM for a long time. The biggest opponent in the PC field.
Lin Yaodong took this company two years ago and used it as a bridge for Lenovo to grow rapidly in China and connect to the world.
At this time, Lenovo was already selling Compaq's computers in the country. This alone made Lenovo a monopoly giant in the domestic PC field and created a large number of orders for Compaq.
Now Lenovo has obtained all computer procurement contracts for universities and various government agencies across the country, including the military field, which is almost a monopoly.
But they don’t just sell computers. Every computer they sell is also bundled with "Lenovo Chinese Character Set", "Lenovo CAD" and various Chinese version of office software, especially some software that needs to be developed separately. It is charged separately, and the price is so expensive that Wu Jie secretly smacks his tongue.
But even if the price is too expensive in Wu Jie's eyes, it is still 20% to 30% cheaper for the government than buying from abroad, and all the things Lenovo develops are in English and Chinese characters. The cost of learning will become The after-sales service is very low and the after-sales service is much better. The key is that the expansion of Lenovo has largely solved the problem of talent employment in the domestic industry. These are things that cannot be bought from abroad no matter how expensive it is.
In the next few years, Lenovo’s strategy in China is to continue to monopolize business, while abroad, it will cooperate with Compaq Computer in the development of office software and industrial software. At the same time, it will start with simple hardware manufacturing, and first make it for Compaq Computer. The most advanced peripherals such as keyboard, mouse and earphone speakers, as well as the necessary PC power supply. A few years later, we will enter the manufacturing of motherboards, 2D graphics expansion cards, and hard drives. The last is the manufacture of memory and CPU.
Lenovo’s most popular CAD software abroad is now. Even Texas Instruments, Intel, Infineon, Philips, Sanyo, Toshiba and other companies have begun to increase the purchase of Lenovo’s CAD software and have put forward a lot of customized contracts. It started Lenovo's reputation abroad, and it also brought in a lot of foreign exchange income that made the upper class stunned.
However, this Lotus 1-2-3 is not small in its original position. It is the originator of spreadsheet software. Later, it also integrated table calculation, drawing, database analysis and other functions. Therefore, in the late 1980s and It was a great success in the early 90s, and during this period it was almost a must-have software for business companies, schools, and office workers.
With this office software, IBM's computer quickly opened up and successfully occupied a large market share in the new PC field.
Now Compaq Computer is one step ahead. The goal is to quickly encroach on the global office field through the strategy of bundling and selling high-quality office software in the early development of PC computers, and to achieve a win-win situation in the field of PC computers and software.
But what Lin Yaodong showed off to Wu Jie this time was not the achievements of these two companies, but the squeeze of Aperture Technology on Nintendo.
In the past two years, Nintendo has been bullied by Aperture Technology to want to buy murderers. The reason is not only the phenomenal arcade games developed by Aperture Technology, but also the necessary patents for the game consoles they developed.
Lin Yaodong first established "Aperture Technology". At present, the company with the highest profitability of "Yaodong Group" is even far more than the domestic monopoly Lenovo. Last year, the revenue in the United States reached 135 million US dollars, setting a US business record. Compaq.
Take last year as an example. Even if the two companies add up their respective profits, they are still less than one-tenth of the annual profits of the Aperture Division.
This sounds incredible, but as long as you understand that the annual income of the American arcade industry is more than Hollywood + Grammy + all sports leagues combined, you know how profitable this industry is currently.
"Aperture Technology" is currently the absolute hegemon in this industry. Since its inception, the published works have been close to 20 in order-"China Cube", "Road Racing", "Fancy Pool", "Kung Fu", "Small Fun", "Fighting Ducks", "Luo Wen Kick Hall", "F1 Racing", "Bomberman", "Bing Peak", "Adventure Island", "Space Cruiser", "Fairy Shadow Legend", "Super Panda", "Metro Warrior", "Boxing King", "Saroman Snake".
These arcade games have almost occupied half of the arcade halls in Europe and the United States. In other words, most players basically go to the arcade halls to play these games. In addition, a few games such as "Pac-Man", "Little Bee", and "Tank Battle" can seize Some shares are up.
In addition, "Aperture Technology" has also unknowingly acquired many subsidiaries, including "Enix" and "SQUARE".
Lin Yaodong jumps like this every day, including the Barcelona players who have always been exclusive to him, and he is exceptionally friendly. It's not that the net worth here can reach the level of buying Barcelona.
Of course, Barcelona will certainly not sell to someone.
But for such a wealthy and capable genius, Barcelona certainly does not let him feel uncomfortable from top to bottom.
Nintendo’s first embarrassment is also here. To stand firm and sell well after the release of their FC, these arcade games that have spread all over the world, especially the "Super Panda" that has become a national game in Japan, must Give enough benefits to the Aperture Division level to allow them to choose to transplant on FC game consoles.
However, even with the impact of the Atari crash in recent years, there are still more than a dozen game consoles on sale around the world, and Aperture Technology’s arcade machines don’t have to worry about quality at all. Once transplanted, they will definitely sell well. Naturally, everyone wants to sell them. A slice of the cake is on this big cake.
Nintendo’s FC has always placed almost unreasonable and demanding requirements on the opening of third-party manufacturers, such as reviewing every FC game. Each third-party manufacturer can only publish a maximum of 5 games per year. And third-party manufacturers need to predict the sales volume of their products, and then Nintendo will make game cassettes. Third-party manufacturers not only have to pay production fees but also bear different amounts of royalties.
What angers third-party vendors the most is that Nintendo's demand for the share reached 50%, which means that Nintendo will take half of the revenue without paying anything.
But when it was the turn of Aperture Technology, Nintendo did not dare to put these requirements on the table, but they never expected that Aperture Technology would prepare them for the "Twenty One" in the game field.
The first thing here is that the share ratio must reach 70%, but don't get me wrong. Of course, aperture technology takes 70%, and Nintendo takes 30%. It depends on the face of aperture technology.
Nintendo was first half angry by this request, so wouldn't they be kneeling and begging?
But soon Nintendo knew that they really had to kneel and beg, because just that, how many people want to kneel and don’t have this way.
Aperture Technology has more than just the game resources that Nintendo must acquire. The key is that they also hold a large number of key patents on the game console.
This is very painful. If there is no patent authorization for Aperture Technology, the FC host will simply cease to exist.
Aperture technology is just a large number of patents on the "handle" and "cassette", so Nintendo will not be able to bypass those patent barriers unless the FC console is reworked.
But do you think these are the only ones?
Aperture Technology still holds a large number of key patents for making horizontal games. It can be said that any game manufacturer must obtain a patent for Aperture Technology to make a game, otherwise it will directly return to the "Space Invader" era.
Fortunately, their licensing fees in this area are very low, basically just a symbolic charge of a little money, otherwise the game companies will have to scold their mothers.
But this also makes the world's game production companies dare not offend Aperture Technology, for fear that they will embarrass themselves in patent licensing.
There are also many first-party production companies under Nintendo, and they also have to license fees for Aperture Technology to make next-generation games of this era.
Aperture Technology holds so much capital that can strangle Nintendo in its hands. In the end, it naturally forced the other party to submit. Although the third-party game division barely talked about 60%, it was forced to give up the Chinese region to Lenovo. Agency.
This is actually a gift. Nintendo never thought about selling FC to mainland China.
But handing over the agency qualification in Europe to Aperture Technology at a low price was a compromise that caused Nintendo to bleed.
However, there is no compromise, because Aperture Technology also has Sega's SMS and Microsoft's MSX2 can cooperate, and even Lenovo and Compaq have the idea of ​​making a learning machine that refers to MSX.
In fact, Compaq is indeed in the process of research and development, so when the exclusive period of cooperation between the two parties ends in 1987, the FC era should be ended by their little overlord.
######
On January 21, Wu Jie sat off the court and watched the third round of the FA Cup with Arsenal and Hereford United.
In this battle, Arsenal's lineup is exactly the same as on the field, which is regarded as a chance to atone for the players who underestimated the enemy.
But if they still fail to deliver satisfactory performance, it is estimated that a series of new deals will be born.
Speaking of the deal, Arsenal finally finalized a deal that the Gunners fans had been waiting for in the second half of the winter transfer window.
On the morning of this playoff, Arsenal and Athletic Bilbao in Spain announced at the same time that they will complete a deal worth up to one million pounds, and the protagonist of the deal is naturally the best performance among young Spanish goalkeepers. Anthony Subizareta.
Wu Jie actually focused on Subizareta early in the morning, one of the greatest goalkeepers in the history of Barcelona, ​​and one of the greatest goalkeepers in the history of Spanish football. Of course he is better than Gary Bailey, the third goalkeeper in England. Much stronger.
Now Lin Yaodong has taken away Subisareta’s position in Barcelona in advance, and the latter can no longer look at any goalkeeper. Now the entire Catalonia does not think that anyone in the world can replace Lin Yaodong, even if they give them one. Yashin or Zoff, the Catalans are also unwilling to lose this same-level goalkeeper who can hold the golden boots.
Yashin or Zoff may not be worse than Lin Yaodong in front of goal, but can they be the king of shooters? Can they press into the midfield to participate in the offense? Can they keep the home team fans in a state of trepidation?
But Wu Jie knows that Subisareta's defensive ability in front of the goal will not be much worse than Lin Yaodong. Such a 21-year-old genius goalkeeper is enough to make Gunners fans no longer need to worry about the goalkeeper position in the next fifteen years.
As for the transfer fee, UU reading www.uukanshu.com only revealed that this is a transaction of more than one million pounds.
Of course Wu Jie knows the exact number. Arsenal spent 1.2 million pounds to buy Subisaretta.
This price is of course too high for young goalkeepers who have not yet entered the national team, and it does not seem to be very worthwhile.
But Wu Jie knew that Subizareta was about to join the Spanish national team in the summer, and after joining, as the main goalkeeper, representing the Spanish national team in four World Cups and two European Championships.
The current £1.2 million may seem expensive, but it will become a reasonable price in one year, and it will be a great deal in three years.
On the second day, Arsenal beat Hereford United 8:1 at home and successfully entered the fourth round of the FA Cup.
But this game will start in five days, and the opponent is Yorkshire of England.
However, Arsenal will be replaced with all the main players, including the newly traded Subizareta will also officially represent Arsenal, a gunner who has no shortcomings, is about to launch a more powerful sprint in the second half of the schedule.
