Chapter 43 The Boss is Going Wild, Spending Huge Amounts for Upgrades! Emperor Yi Makes the Golden B

When the second goal was scored, Leicester City owner Vichai was sitting in the VIP box, calmly watching the pitch.

Unlike Spain, England doesn't have those pre-match dinners where the leaders have to chat and exchange pleasantries, sit side-by-side during the game, force a smile after the opponent scores, and even receive a souvenir from the opponent after being utterly humiliated.

Vichai simply loves this team and habitually brings his family along on their travels to the away stands to cheer them on silently.

"Daddy, Daddy, we scored again!"

Vichai's son, Ayawat, excitedly shook his father's arm.

"Shengyuan... do you think it's possible for us to make it into the Premier League?"

Vichai habitually said the child's Chinese name, and a fervent idea slowly surfaced in his mind.

"Of course, we're two goals ahead of the leaders, we're the strongest team in the Championship right now, and the strongest team gets promoted!"

Xu Shengyuan was still young, but he knew that the one who transformed the Leicester City team was actually a Chinese striker who had just come of age!

Originally, Xiao Xu could understand Mandarin but not speak it (which is common among second-generation Chinese children), but now his vocabulary is full of new words like "Edie NEW BEE".

In fact, this has become a common phenomenon among Leicester City fans.

It is said that it was learned from a distant Eastern country.

Over time, local Leicester fans also got used to saying it.

Loftus Road Stadium, however, was as silent as a graveyard.

The bubble of an undefeated championship burst quietly at this moment.

To continue their goal, they need to score at least two more goals.

Eriksson, who lacks any sense of martial ethics, immediately made a substitution.

They substituted two attackers with a defensive midfielder and a center-back.

Only Liu Yi remained in the attacking third.

This is the key point; you can't afford to ignore it.

Otherwise, Leicester City might launch a counter-attack at any time, and this guy will appear in an unpredictable position and score another goal that makes people shout "Holy crap!"

It's like a toad crawling on your foot; it doesn't bite, but it's annoying.

Thus, Liu Yi, who had resumed his strolling routine, continued to tightly restrain QPR's center-back Xi Tu.

Xi Tu is quite looking forward to Liu Yi getting a touch of the ball and moving around a bit.

As a result, the remaining ten minutes or so of this piece of material were spent walking around from beginning to end.

This made Xitu, who was staring at him, look like a clown.

The team pressed forward aggressively in the final moments, and he was seen strolling around the backfield with Yi Di.

Xitu was suffering inside.

If he hadn't marked Liu Yi, and the latter had scored another goal, QPR would have lost by three goals at home!

If we don't lose, then so be it.

If you lose, you lose big.

that's it……

Leicester City withstood the home team's relentless attack in the final moments.

0:2 victory!

They took away three valuable points from Loftus Road.

The final whistle blew.

Xi Tu reluctantly took off his black gloves.

Two fatal oversights.

This match will definitely be met with a barrage of criticism from the media.

I was just thinking about how to make excuses like the grass being too slippery or the weather being too cold.

But they discovered that no media outlet cared about him at all.

The female reporters he had often coveted were now surrounding Liu Yi.

Microphones were shoved into the mouth of the beaming Chinese striker.

"Liu, congratulations on winning MVP again..."

"Liu, this is Elizabeth from The Daily Telegraph. Do you remember me? Last time..."

Xi Tu has broken through their defenses.

He cursed angrily and threw the gloves to the ground.

As they passed through the players' tunnel and returned to the locker room, the Queens Park Rangers players were speechless.

Regarding the low air pressure.

The words are divided into two parts.

Meanwhile, the Leicester City players were singing and dancing in the rather modest away team's dressing room.

"Brilliant! We've shown those arrogant London media what we're capable of!"

"With these three points, we've advanced to the top six. If Nottingham Forest doesn't win this round, we'll be in the play-off zone for a whole week!"

Eriksson was in high spirits, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light.

Two months ago, Leicester City was a mediocre mid-table team.

Now, they have defeated the league leaders away from home, and their sights are set on promotion.

"One week, one week isn't enough!"

It was cold in the away team's locker room, but Andy King was still shirtless, waving his jersey.

"Yoshi! Yoshi! We don't just want the top six, we want the top two!"

After these two months, Yuki Abe was completely convinced.

He originally thought that with his almost perfect resume in Asian football, including the AFC Champions League and the J-League title, he should be "a cut above the rest" when he came to the Championship.

As a result, Liu Yi's terrifying statistics of 13 goals and 3 assists in 14 Championship games showed him that only a prodigy of this caliber could dominate this battlefield.

Imagine if Urawa Red Diamonds, who won the AFC Champions League back then, played against this current Leicester City team.

Abe had no hesitation; Urawa would be utterly defeated.

The arrival of the head of the group, Vichai, pushed the atmosphere in the locker room to its absolute peak.

Wearing a tracksuit, he wasn't afraid to hug each of the sweaty players.

When it was Liu Yi's turn, he patted the goal scorer's back with extra force.

He whispered in the young man's ear in Chinese, "Your shot and assist were both beautiful! Kid, I really like you."

Liu Yi smiled.

"If you find this enjoyable, you might consider giving me a tip."

Vichai nodded: "That's natural."

Pogba sat to the side, his big eyes staring at the two of them like the internet celebrity SPEED.

What are those two talking about?

Can you speak English?

Vichai walked to the middle of the locker room and raised his hands.

"All eyes are on me!"

"I have an announcement to make!"

"I'm going to throw money around!"

Upon hearing that the boss was going to give out money, all the generals were eager and overjoyed.

"If the team can remain in the promotion playoff zone at the end of the season, I will reward the entire team with one million euros!"

hiss……

In the locker room, everyone gasped.

The team's total budget is one million, which translates to tens of thousands per person, equivalent to two or three months' salary.

Immediately, everyone rubbed their hands together, eager to try.

"If... the team can get promoted to the Premier League after the season ends..." Vichai paused, his gaze sweeping over every face filled with fervor.

"I'm awarding the entire team three million euros!"

After a brief period of calm.

Then, as if something had exploded, they all made an "Ooh" sound.

Immediately afterwards, everyone's eyes turned to a corner of the locker room.

Pogba looked flustered and quickly grabbed a towel to cover his upper body.

The child is shy.

Sitting next to him, Liu Yi revealed a smug smile reminiscent of Wu Jing.

(Imagine Jing Ge's head moving)

Everyone immediately turned their attention to this side.

Because everyone, including Eriksson, knew this.

Whether or not the upgrade will happen, all the suspense rests on Liu Yi.

※※※

A pivotal battle! Liu Yi shines with a goal and an assist!

Queens Park Rangers' unbeaten season ends; manager says defense needs adjustment!

Leicester City's Chinese owner has announced an extra bonus if the team is successfully promoted!

Liu Yi has already taken over half of the European-based players section on Sina Sports.

There was nothing he could do; Gao Junmin couldn't compete with Uchida Atsuto over there and was relegated to the bench.

The other players all play in the second division.

Although Liu Yi is also in the Championship, he has shown dominance and has even turned his Japanese teammates, who are doing well, into "Liu Yi fans".

Comparing the two, fans are naturally more interested in "Space Ride," which can bring them a thrill!

Suddenly, a message was pinned to the top of the website, even overshadowing the report of Leicester City's away victory.

The 2011 Golden Boy Award nominees have been announced! Liu Yi has broken into the top ten, becoming the only Asian player among the nominees!

The number of clicks and comments surged to a peak in a short period of time.

With Liu Yi's stats, even if Leicester City fails to gain promotion, he's practically guaranteed a spot in the Premier League next season. He'll either stay at Manchester United or be loaned out to a Premier League-level team. The Championship... it shouldn't be difficult for him at all!

Indeed, although he was only tenth in the Golden Boy award nominations, all of the previous nine played in top-tier leagues, and Yi Di was the only one selected from a second-tier league, clearly demonstrating a high level of recognition for his ability.

The English Championship isn't weaker than those obscure leagues like the Dutch Eredivisie or the Portuguese Primeira Liga. Back in the day, Zhi Ge couldn't get playing time in the Premier League, but later became a starter for Charlton Athletic in the Championship, and now he's arguably the strongest midfielder in the Chinese national team.

Okay... I admit, Liu Yi is indeed among the top tier of Chinese players. Using the ranking system from those popular fantasy novels, he'd be... at the peak of the Huachao Doudi level!
