Chapter 1471 White Moonlight in the Water
As a sports powerhouse, China's participation in the continental games is far less popular than the world games. But every time the opponent is a pirate country, the attention and enthusiasm can always double.
The video of Shen Ze losing to the stealing country in two relay races was edited by many UP hosts and posted online, and its popularity soared.
The title of anti-theft hero and his excellent appearance made him appear on the homepages of various websites for several days.
One of the UP hosts also edited a video of Shen Ze walking out of the swimming pool and being captured by the camera along the way.
The photographer was really good. He first took a picture of his whole body, especially his shoulders, waist, legs with almost perfect proportions, and his powerful abdominal muscles, and finally took a picture of his face.
The handsome boy looked a little confused in front of the camera, his eyes were as clear as flowing water, capturing the hearts of everyone who saw them.
The Intercontinental Games had just ended and the athletes had almost just returned to the training base when advertisers who had smelled business opportunities approached the General Aquatics Administration and wanted Shen Ze to endorse their products.
The swimming team's daily training base is located on the outskirts of the city.
On the one hand, it is quieter because there are fewer people, and on the other hand, the land is cheap, which saves costs.
Shi Li asked the driver to take her to the gate of the base at the time she had been told. When she got out of the car, she saw a middle-aged woman in a light pink sportswear walking out in a hurry.
Blinking her eyes, Shi Li walked forward and nodded and smiled at her, "Hello, Sister Feng."
The middle-aged woman was Feng Hui, who had added her on WeChat in advance. She was a nutritionist for the national swimming team. Shi Li came to the base as an intern, and she would be responsible for everything in the future.
Feng Hui was all smiles and polite and kind. She led Shi Li into the base to complete the formalities, and then offered to show her around.
At this time in the morning, the athletes are in the gym with their coaches doing their daily training.
Feng Hui took Shi Li to visit the dormitory and cafeteria first, and finally came to the office building.
When the two walked outside the office building, they saw the swimming team leader Xue Hongying walking out of the building with several people in suits and ties, escorting those people out of the base.
Shi Li recognized that the tall and thin man seemed to be the public relations manager of a certain brand. It seemed that their cooperative spokesperson had expired and the next spokesperson had not been found yet.
"I guess he's looking for Xu Yang to be the spokesperson again."
Seeing that she kept looking at those people, Feng Hui simply explained to her, "Before, the swimming team didn't get much attention, and we didn't get any advertisements. In the past two years, Xu Yang has won several gold medals, and has received many advertisements one after another."
Athletes accept advertising endorsements differently from celebrities.
They are trained by the national or provincial teams and have no right to accept advertisements on their own. All commercial activities must be approved by the national or provincial teams.
Advertising endorsement fees will also be divided into several parts according to proportion - the country, provincial team, coaching staff and the athletes themselves.
Xu Yang is worth a lot of money. Province B, which trained him, is a major sports province and receives a lot of advertising fees.
"What if it's not Xu Yang you're looking for?"
Shi Li thought about the brand's previous spokespersons and felt that they were more likely to want to work with Shen Ze.
"Who else can we find besides Xu Yang? No one recognizes others after they finish shooting commercials." Feng Hui shook her head, thinking it was impossible.
As they were talking, they saw a sturdy middle-aged man walking over. Anyone who usually pays attention to the swimming team knows that this man is Xu Yang's head coach Zhou Licheng.
Team leader Xue Hongying saw off the brand owner and turned around to see Zhou Licheng. She immediately greeted him with a big smile on her face, "Old Zhou, I have good news for you!"
"Is Xu Yang going to take another advertisement?" Zhou Licheng raised his chin slightly, obviously very proud of himself for cultivating such a golden nugget like Xu Yang.
Xue Hongying smiled and nodded repeatedly, "You have to thank me this time, I originally..."
Xue Hongying suddenly stopped talking halfway through her words and looked around vigilantly. When her eyes met Shi Li and Feng Hui, she felt a little cold.
Then he completely stopped smiling and dragged Zhou Licheng into the office building.
Shi Li stood there, thinking back to what Xue Hongying had just said halfway, and always felt that something was not right.
