After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!-Chapter 111 - 0100 is not just a club (seeking subscriptions, recommendation tickets, and monthly passes)_2
Chapter 111: 0100 is not just a club (seeking subscriptions, recommendation tickets, and monthly passes)_2
"Corriere dello Sport": "After Kevin was received by the Pope, it’s hard not to think of the Vatican given his performance. After the game, Kevin himself admitted this, suggesting that this victory was a blessing from the Lord."
Remarkably, the Vatican’s own newspaper, "The Roman Observer," also expressed a similar sentiment: "On a night in Constantinople, we witnessed a miracle, a blessing from the Lord, a reward for Kevin’s devout faith. Do not complain or slander the omniscient and omnipotent God; with steadfast faith, miracles will eventually come."
"Liverpool Evening Mail": "21 years later, Liverpool has returned to the UEFA Champions League final only to taste disappointment again. Off-pitch issues affected the performance on it, and Kevin’s cleared drug test proves he had no issue, Liverpool did their best, only Kevin was better."
"The Times": "A great victory, a Chapter in football history, the night in Istanbul will be remembered. From now on, there will be two types of games, the Miracle of Istanbul and all the rest."
"Manchester Evening News": "A night that belonged to one man!"
"The Sun newspaper" featured a photo of Barbara and wrote, "Barbara has a changed figure, possibly pregnant, and Kevin may soon welcome his first child. And he hasn’t even retired yet, but his child has already been promoted to Milan’s first team, and AC Milan is about to welcome another dynasty."
"L’Équipe": "An exciting game, an unparalleled Kevin, no praise can fully express the respect for Kevin; the Milan fans’ nickname for him says it all, and his shirt should have—Saint Kevin!"
France is also a Catholic country.
Thus, such a performance is not surprising.
"AS Newspaper": "Florentino has already contacted AC Milan, ready to make an offer for Kevin and Kaka, to bundle the Milanese stars, letting Real Madrid’s brilliance illuminate the whole world."
"Marca": "Kevin’s frequent injuries, obviously a problem of the AC Milan medical team, as soon as he transfers to Real Madrid, that problem will no longer exist."
"World Sports News": "AC Milan, to please Kaka, brought in his brother. Barça could try the same by bringing in Kevin’s brother, thus getting Kevin, playing him as a winger on usual days, and as a goalkeeper during penalty shoot-outs, which would be the most reasonable arrangement."
And in China, it’s already the afternoon.
All websites
Sohu, Sina, Huang Yi Sports.
They all switched to a red and black layout.
Traditional media almost all reported the news on the front page.
Even the most renowned "Daily" newspaper printed a photo of Huang Kaiwen on the front page with the big title "The Chinese who Conquered the World"!
Huang Kaiwen’s fan forum
went from fewer than 100,000 followers to a million-level overnight.
And it continues to grow.
In an era without widespread personal computers, let alone smartphones, this is a terrifying number.
In May 2005, the number of internet users in China surpassed 85 million.
The number of computers used for internet access reached over 40 million.
But among these figures, there’s a lot of window dressing.
Computers were concentrated in internet cafes and enterprises, with only a small number of personal computers.
Even the internet user statistics were inflated; just being online with a QQ account counted.
The truly active users were those fervently typing away in internet cafes, trying to pick up girls in Audition or shouting with excitement while playing Bubble.
Originally, they didn’t know about fan forums.
Even if they knew, they wouldn’t want to use them.
Internet access was expensive; better to focus on gaming rather than waste time chatting.
Even if you stayed overnight, wouldn’t it be better to watch a blockbuster movie when you’re tired of playing?
But after AC Milan’s championship win.
The name Huang Kaiwen swept across China with an unstoppable momentum, and even the best students in classes were discussing this person.
To not talk about him seemed to leave one behind the times.
With a quick search.
One would see what this fan forum was about.
There was quite a discussion going on.
And it was very interesting.
Quickly register a fan forum account with an ID number.
And start boasting with fellow fans.
In 2005, chatting with people from all over the country was novel, and the atmosphere was friendly.
Good conversations could even lead to offline marriages.
This cannot overlook one person pretending to be a girl on social media.
The hottest post in the fan forums was a translation of the "Asahi Shimbun" by a Japanese student.
The "Asahi Shimbun" also used a photo of Huang Kaiwen.
But uploading photos was quite troublesome.
It required scanning or using a digital camera with a card reader, and perhaps even format conversion.
So it was a description by the forum member himself.
"The ’Asahi Shimbun,’ Japan’s most influential newspaper, also led with Huang Kaiwen on the front page. The headline read: ’The God of Football—The Man Who Won the Championship Single-Handedly!!!’"
"Holy shit, even the Japanese are bowing down to Huang Kaiwen’s awesomeness?"
"That’s the Japanese for you; they grovel before the strong and bare their fangs at the weak."
"Anyway, Huang Kaiwen is just amazing. Tomorrow at noon a new Fantasy Westward Journey server launches, and I’ll name my character Huang Kaiwen—is anyone else up for playing?"
"Is it the Netcom or Telecom server? I’m worried about lags."
"Who even plays Westward Journey anymore? Ghost Valley got buffed, and my Ghostly Lotus is useless now."
...
Morning in Europe.
The influence of the UEFA Champions League final continues to ferment.
Starting with the Milanese legends.
Several TV stations interviewed past AC Milan players.
When interviewed by Canale5, Baresi said with an exaggerated expression, "My God, I was so excited I couldn’t sleep all night, more excited than before my first date. I’ve met Kevin; he’s a great, great player, but I think my knowledge of Kevin is still too superficial. Back then Kevin said I was his idol, and he regretted not being able to play with me. Now, I would like to say that it’s me who should have regrets; I wish I was 20 years younger so I could have played with Kevin for a decade!"
