Chapter 56: Giorgio Armani

If Inzaghi is the pride of Piacenza Club in football, then Mr. Armani is the pride of the entire Piacenza people.

Giorgio Armani, who was born in Piacenza, has left many glorious deeds in the Italian domestic design industry, and the Armani company he founded is a world-famous luxury brand.

The old man, who is over seventy years old, also has another identity: a die-hard fan of Piacenza. As for why he suddenly came to visit Liu Feng, it has to do with the fact that the old man accidentally walked to the reserve team's match venue and watched a game.

Talking about Liu Feng’s game.

Since this season, the first team's miserable record has made the entire Piacenza fans heartbroken.

So since the name of Super Maple was brought to the fan organization by some fans, more and more fans went to watch the reserve team's games out of curiosity.

Liu Feng's performance of averaging one goal per game and sometimes making wonderful performances undoubtedly left a deep impression on the fans.

Although Mr. Armani is old, his heart is not. In reality, he is still a fan who can be obsessed with the victory or defeat of the team. When he walked into the competition venue, he completely fell in love with that fan.

Chinese players who are full of surprises on the court.

The old man who no longer manages the company's operations watched Liu Feng's games one after another in reserve team games. After Piacenza won another victory under the leadership of Liu Feng, he came up with the idea of ​​paying a visit to this Asian player.

Players' interest.

Liu Feng, who had already checked the club's information on the Internet before coming to Piacenza, naturally knew who Giorgio Armani was. Such a big shot wanted to visit him, which made him feel a little uneasy.

The next day, Liu Feng tidied up early and went downstairs to help Chen Xu tidy up the store. Soon, a energetic old man appeared at the door of the restaurant.

"Hello!"

Recognizing Armani at a glance, who frequently appeared in local media in Piacenza, Liu Feng showed a polite smile and introduced the old man into the store.

"Hello." Mr. Armani walked in with a smile, holding a Piacenza jersey in his hand: "Liu Feng! I am a fan of Piacenza!"

He didn't have the air of a big shot at all. Looking at the friendly old man in front of him, Liu Feng's initial apprehension disappeared in a blink of an eye: "I'm honored."

Armani pointed to the seat opposite his desk and motioned for Liu Feng to sit down.

Liu Feng did not refuse, and sat down with the marker he took from Chen Xu's counter. He took the marker handed over by the old man, lowered his head and signed his name on the jersey.

"Oh~ Chinese characters are really beautiful."

Armani looked at the two Chinese characters written by Liu Feng and expressed his sincere admiration: "I have been to China. It is a very magical country. I like the designs of many Chinese artists."

Liu Feng smiled and nodded, and chatted with the old man. Giorgio Armani was obviously very interested in Chinese culture, and the two chatted happily for a while.

During the chat, Liu Feng learned that this old Italian man was already in a semi-retired state, so he had so much free time to stay in his hometown.

Listening to Giorgio Armani constantly praising his performance in the reserve team, Liu Feng kept showing an embarrassed smile.

"Super feng!" Armani chatted for a while and directly called out Liu Feng's nickname that has been widely spread among fans: "It's such a nostalgic title. Many years ago, we also had a super player.

.”

Liu Feng naturally knew who the old man was talking about. It had to be said that the now world-famous Inzaghi has always been the pride of Piacenza fans.

"I'm looking forward to you entering the first team." Giorgio Armani suddenly smiled and looked at Liu Feng after reminiscing for a while: "My company is currently selecting some athletes to sign endorsement contracts. I like you very much."

Liu Feng was stunned: "But, I'm still just a reserve team player..."

"It doesn't matter, Feng, you have a very good image and your skills are quite outstanding. I believe you will be qualified soon." Armani waved his hand: "As far as I know, the club's current financial situation is not very good.

It’s time to do something for the team.”

"Uh..." Liu Feng didn't understand what the old man meant for a moment, but he probably wanted to inject capital into the club?

As for endorsements, he feels that his popularity is too inconsistent with a world-class brand like Armani.

The old man in front of him was still talking cheerfully. He reached out and picked up the jersey signed by Liu Feng, unfolded it and looked at it: "Feng, wait for the good news."

Later, when it was lunch time, Liu Feng and Chen Xu treated the old man, who did not have the aura of a big shot, with a table of Chinese food. Liu Feng sent him out the door as the old man kept praising him.

A few days later, after returning from the reserve team training as usual, Liu Feng received a call from João.

"Feng! Good news, hahaha!" After Liu Feng signed the contract with the team, João returned to Brazil. After that, he traveled back and forth between Brazil and Italy. He was very busy. In addition to talking on the phone once a month, the two of them

Haven't met each other.

"Uncle Joao, what's the good news?" Listening to Joao's hearty laughter, Liu Feng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

"Armani announced that it has invested in Piacenza, and Giorgio Armani has become a shareholder of the team. He is the die-hard Piacenza fan!"

"Uh-huh."

Liu Feng was not too surprised when he heard João's words. When he chatted with the old man a few days ago, he learned about this matter. Although he is semi-retired, as the founder of a world-renowned company, the old man's financial situation is definitely not good.

Difference.

"Haha, Feng, why are you not surprised at all?" Joao chuckled twice: "But the next news will definitely make you jump with excitement."

"oh?"

"I just received a call from Armani. They are ready to sign a sponsorship contract with you!"

Liu Feng was confused. The old man really wanted him to speak for himself? "Uncle Joao, is it true or not?"

"I'm at the airport now. I'll talk to you in detail when I get to Piacenza. This contract is quite special." Joao was about to explain to Liu Feng when the voice of the boarding announcement came from the other end of the phone. He hurriedly

Tell Liu Feng not to worry.

"Okay." Although Liu Feng was very curious about that special contract, he was not willing to delay Joao's boarding: "Uncle Joao, you can board the plane first, and we will meet to discuss it tomorrow."

"Okay Feng! Finally, I have some big news for you. Your career will start soon!"

Before João got on the plane, he told Liu Feng one last message.

Career? First team?
