103 Benefits of reading novels

103 The benefits of reading novels

After defeating Schalke 04 3-0, Kaiserslautern ushered in a six-day preparation period. For this reason, Yang Cheng decided to take a day off on the second day after playing Schalke 04 so that the players could rest and prepare for the next 5th round of the Bundesliga match to challenge Bochum away.

This Bochum is very different from the Bochum that she met with Yang Cheng in the past. Although players such as Stix Ross and Watts are still in the team and play a key role, the team has introduced many powerful stars in other positions, and the overall strength of the team has been greatly strengthened. Last season, it even won the fifth place in the league and entered the UEFA Cup.

However, the overall technical and tactical style of this team has not changed much. It is still mainly based on technical play styles, but the defense is still tragic, especially as Stix Rose gradually grows older and unable to introduce appropriate players, the team's defense has declined significantly, and the results of this season have also suffered.

But buying players is easy. It is not a matter of overnight change to a team's technical and tactical style, so Bochum is still sticking to his technical and tactical style.

Whenever he thinks of Bochum, Yang Cheng can't help but think of Barcelona.

At first glance, these two teams are indeed not comparable. After all, one is a giant and the other is a mid-range team, but they both insist on their own technical and tactical styles. However, because of the giants, Barcelona can always spend money to introduce players and fill the gaps in the lineup, but Bochum does not have the financial resources and attractiveness in this area.

In this way, Barcelona can persist and be praised by countless later people as wise; but Bochum's persistence was ridiculed by fans because of its poor performance and even became a lift, which was called stupid stubbornness.

Yang Cheng was a Real Madrid fan in his previous life. Although he was a mortal enemy of Barcelona, ​​he would not attack Barcelona blindly. He even admired Barcelona's achievements to some extent. However, it is undeniable that Barcelona's success is unique and his persistence is difficult to replicate.

It is precisely because he is clear about Bochum's technical and tactical advantages and disadvantages that when Yang Cheng once again welcomed his first opponent in his first professional league, he sent all his main players to play, and used the midfield as the key point of his combat.

Although it was a away game, Kaiserslautern took the lead from the beginning, firmly controlled the situation with his active offensive style, suppressed Bochum, and quickly scored a goal.

"It's Van Nie again... Dutchman Luther Van Niestroy!"

With the exclamation of the live commentator, everyone immediately knew that Fanny scored another goal!

The Dutchman, who scored crazy goals, seemed to have a lot of momentum to score. Except for not playing in the third round, he scored goals in every round, and even scored consecutive goals in the League Cup before the season.

"In the 38th minute, Van Nie stood on the left post in the penalty area and shot at Denilsen's cross, breaking through Bochum's goal!"

This game seems to have been included in the ranks of sure victory by Kaiserslauten.

But unexpectedly, in the 47th minute stoppage time, Lucio was too snatched the ball too much. After being intercepted, Watts passed directly behind him. Kyle had no time to stop the opponent's counterattack, and could only watch the team's golden body break this season, 1:1!

However, during the halftime break, Yang Cheng not only did not scold him, but also gave Lucio encouragement, but advised the Brazilian that dribbling forward is a tactical requirement, but it is not blind. As a last barrier to the defense line, he must estimate the risks brought by forward insertion and ensure the team's defense line.

Afterwards, Yang Cheng encouraged the players to continue working hard, and must continue to maintain their morale and form in the first half in the second half, and defeat their opponents in one go.

As soon as the second half began, Kaiserslautern sounded the offensive signal.

In the 49th minute, after receiving a pass from Beron outside the penalty area, Van Nie turned around and shot a long shot. The ball was saved by Bochum goalkeeper, but Schneider stuck it with a sensitive sense of smell and promptly shot before everyone, expanding the score again.

Afterwards, Kaiserslautern attacked wildly, and Bochum was forced to retreat step by step, especially when Kaiserslautern scored three goals in the 55th, 61st and 69th minutes, Denilson, Nedved and Barak scored three goals in a row, and the team had completely collapsed.

After that, the game turned into garbage time, Yang Cheng made consecutive substitutions and adjusted, while Kaiserslautern firmly ensured the score.

In the away game, Kesslautern defeated Bochum 5-1, he still firmly controlled the position of the league leader. However, after a turmoil, Bayern Munich also recovered one after another, and in this round, he defeated Rostock 3-1 away, 5 games, 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, ranking second in the league.

Kaiserslautern ranked first in the league with an impressive record of 4 wins and 1 draw in 5 games, with 13 points.

Following closely behind are teams such as Dortmund, Leverkusen, Werder Bremen, etc., but they all have vague signs of widening the gap with Kaiserslautern and Bayern Munich, especially Leverkusen and Dortmund. These two teams lost and tied in this round, and their performance was average.

Yang Cheng never expected that he would play one game after another. The goal he set for the team before was the top of the league, and it would be best to strive for the Champions League and ensure the qualification of the League Cup. However, after 5 rounds, Kaiserslautern became the leader of the league with a 3-point advantage.

But Yang Cheng knew in his heart that the current team Kaiserslautern is too young, and it may not be a good thing to be in shape too early. Moreover, the pressure to be the leader of the league is very high. If he cannot handle this situation carefully, it may lead to a collapse of the team. When morale is bleak, it will be difficult to deal with.

Therefore, on the one hand, Yang Cheng used the achievements he has gained since the league to purchase services to improve team morale and ensure the players' condition from the super coach assistance system. On the other hand, he tried every means to help players adjust their condition from various channels and reduce their pressure.

Especially before the team was disbanded, Yang Cheng repeatedly told everyone that he would not be optimistic and would never mention the leader or champion in the face of the media.

"I want you to understand and remember that no matter how high we rank in the league standings now and how good the team is in, we have only one identity this season, we are just a new team, if we forget this, we will only return to the Bundesliga in shame. Are you willing to go back to the nightmare of the Bundesliga again?"

The players were rushing to shake their heads. It would be a torture for players who were used to returning to the Bundesliga to return to the Bundesliga.

"Then don't forget our identity. We only have one goal this season, to ensure the team's smooth relegation, and then consider striving for a better ranking!"

Yang Cheng's words seemed very serious, and the players' moods have become a little fluttering recently, so he feels it is necessary to wake up the guys who are beginning to become optimistic.

The players left Tillingen again and went to the national team to report.

After two consecutive rounds of outstanding performances, the number of international players in Kaiserslautern suddenly increased.

On the defense line, Kosch and Kyle were selected for the German national team, while Kivo entered the Romanian national team. In the midfield, Peron, Barack, Nedved, Desler, Denielsen, Schneider, and Salihamidic were all selected for the national team, while Van Nie was selected for the forward line.

Because his wife was about to give birth, Larson took leave from the Swedish national team and continued to stay in Kaiserslautern to accompany his wife.

The day after the team was disbanded, Brookheimer, who was far away in Hollywood, USA, called Yang Cheng.

"It finally lives up to your expectations!" Brookheimer on the phone laughed excitedly.

When Yang Cheng heard this hearty laughter, he knew that his script had a play, so he asked: "How is it?"

"Disney is very interested in your "supernatural sixth sense", and the film company has also promised that we are fully responsible for the production of the film, and has issued a $60 million shooting budget, and the script costs $2 million, and you will pay as long as you sign a copyright agreement with them."

Yang Cheng was very happy when he heard this. With the $2 million, his plan was settled.

But when he thought about it, Yang Cheng immediately guessed that Brookheimer must have given him great help in this matter. Otherwise, with his qualifications, even if the script he wrote was good, Disney would not have paid such a high fee.

Yang Cheng's idea is right. One reason why Disney is willing to pay such a high copyright fee is that Yang Cheng's script is indeed good, and another reason is that they value the shooting quality of Brookheimer's Film Company. Because Yang Cheng insists, Brookheimer can only be produced by Brookheimer, and Disney is very confident in him.

This means that Yang Cheng is a fox and a tiger with power!

"By the way, Jerry, then you're the producer..."

Brookheimer's heart warmed up. Yang Cheng was able to think of him at this time, proving that Yang Cheng is indeed a good friend who values ​​love and friendship and is worthy of making deep connections. If Yang Cheng just throws himself out of the sky as soon as he hears about making money, then the little bit of the favor he had finally won in front of Brookheimer will be gone.

"Don't worry, Disney has decided to hand it over to our company. I still have many details to discuss with you. We are under tremendous pressure. We have such a big investment, so we must make a successful work!" It sounds like Brookheimer is still a little unconfident enough.

But Yang Cheng was extremely optimistic, "Don't worry, Jerry, I have full confidence in you. This movie will not only sell the top spots, but may still have a chance to win the award!"

Brookheimer laughed, thinking that Yang Cheng was encouraging him.

"I had contacted David Finch before. He was originally going to shoot a work of his own, but after reading the script I sent, he immediately decided to shoot this one first. As for Edward Norton, a Yale graduate who became famous with the movie "First-level Fear", he immediately expressed his willingness to participate after hearing that David Finch promised to take the film."

After hearing this, Yang Cheng felt excited. He knew very well that the scholarly aura on Edward Norton, so he could definitely play the role of the male protagonist Bruce Willis. In addition, he decided to arrange the other child star according to his original plan to act in his previous life, because his performance at that time was impeccable.

With the joining of David Finch and Edward Norton, Yang Cheng firmly believes that this movie will definitely be better than in his previous life.

If this movie is popular, his influence will also increase. With the income sharing of DVD, he will definitely make a big profit from it.

"In addition, the script of "The Rest of the Desert Island" was spotted by DreamWorks. Steve Spielberg admired the script very much. He expressed his willingness to buy the film for $2 million at the same price as Disney's "Supernatural Sixth Sense". At the same time, he said he could convince Tom Hanks to participate in the movie."

After hearing this, Yang Cheng was so excited that he wanted to shout because he knew very well that the charm of these two movies was definitely the type of big-sale sales. If he really did shoot according to the current plan, wouldn’t that mean he wanted to make a lot of money?

However, he knew the Hollywood environment. Although he had made an agreement now, it might not be able to fulfill it. After all, there are many aspects to consider when making movies, such as investment, schedule, budget, etc., so the current negotiation agreement may change in the future.

But the only thing that remains unchanged is that as long as Yang Cheng goes to the United States and signs the agreement, he can immediately get $4 million in revenue. This is indeed a long drought and rain for Yang Cheng, who is desperate for money recently.

I've been thirsty for a long time and I'm a little unbelievable when I see the water, especially the $4 million, which is a bit too dreamy because of my own scripts.

So in order to avoid the long nights and to relieve himself, Yang Cheng rushed to the United States immediately. He first met Spielberg with Brookheimer. The three of them also made an appointment with Tom Hanks. As a result, the two hit it off. Tom Hanks praised Yang Cheng's script and said that they would participate in the performance when the schedule was appropriate.

Later, Yang Cheng officially signed an agreement with DreamWorks. For investment reasons, DreamWorks also had to find another partner. 21st Century Fox approached Brookheimer, who recommended the film company and quickly established an investment with a budget of US$100 million.

This was definitely a number that shocked Yang Cheng. Even he himself couldn't believe it, but now it really appeared.

In addition, people from the 21st Century Fox are very optimistic about the two scripts written by Yang Cheng, and hope that the scripts written by Yang Cheng will be given priority to submissions to them in the future.

"Whether it is a TV or a movie script, or even the same creative ideas as Tianqiao Fengyun and American Idol, we are very interested in working with you!" Fox representatives assured.

Yang Cheng smiled and originally planned to agree on the spot, and then took out all the survival in his mind, but Heidi Krum next to him secretly pulled his clothes. The nouveau riche, who was almost frightened by the sudden luck, then realized that he would consider it.

"I have written two movie scripts worth 2 million in a row. Your current value is definitely not as good as before. No matter what the box office of these two movies will be in the future, your script price will definitely increase. At this time, you will suffer a loss when you promise to cooperate with 21st Century Fox!" Heidi Crum, the representative of 21st Century Fox, looked like a housewife, and was very considerate of Yang Cheng.

"Heidi said it right, waiting for a price is the ideal way for independent filmmakers to survive!" Brookheimer agreed.

Yang Cheng suddenly felt ashamed. He was indeed not as good as these two elites in this regard, but he was secretly grateful that he had these two confidants and a heart-warming family member who could trust.

Little did they know that the reason Heidi Krum and Brookheimer helped him was more because Yang Cheng was heartbroken to them before, so now they are just repaying their favor.

Moreover, for Brookheimer Film Company, if you can get the right to participate in the production of these two films at the same time, Brookheimer can become the producer of these two works that have been confirmed to be almost popular. Whether it is an individual or a company, his influence in Hollywood will be greatly improved.

And all of this is just the two scripts written by Yang Cheng “stories”!

"Fox has also decided to participate in the production of the "American Idol" talent show. After some time, after these projects are launched, they will invite you to attend the press conference. If you have time, you might as well write more scripts to make extra money, and take advantage of this trend to establish your position in the Hollywood screenwriter field!" Brookheimer is a veteran of Hollywood and knows how to hype and promote.

Yang Cheng nodded in conscientiously and agreed. He began to think about what movie he should plagiarize next.

In the next two days, Yang Cheng completed the signing of a contract with Disney, which resulted in the payment of US$4 million after paying the tax.

As soon as he took the money, Yang Cheng deposited all of his stock trading account, but it was divided into two parts, part of which was put into operation, and the remaining part was left in the account for emergencies. Then he began to remotely control his account in Germany to make money in the US stock market.

Now Soros is rampant in Asia with a large number of international financial speculators. Yang Cheng has also seen relevant data in many Qidian novels in his previous life, knowing that Asian countries such as Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Japan have been attacked and collapsed one after another.

I have read a lot of novels in my previous life, and Yang Cheng is also very impressed by what will happen next. Therefore, since he opened an account in the United States, he has been watching the stock market every day and found that there is no difference between his impression in his previous life.

So he began to follow Soros and other crocodile army in Asia in a way that he lost less and won more.

Focusing on the stock market, and in the two weeks at the end of August and early September, the Indonesian rupiah was a big chrysanthemum by international financial speculators. Yang Cheng made a lot of money here and did not care about anything else. He simply handed over all the tasks of inspecting players to Paul Bayer.

When the $4 million in his account turned into $15 million, he was almost so happy that he wanted to quit his job as head coach Kaiserslautern and live in the stock market.

Fortunately, this kid is not a guy who is easily blinded, so he knows very clearly that his main business is in football, stock market, screenwriters, etc., and he is interested and part-time job outside of football. But even so, he still spends a large part of his money to invest in the Internet technology stocks in the United States and specifically selects some more potential companies to invest in. After all, before 2000, such stocks could bring him huge wealth.
