Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Hey, Harry!" When the owner of Saint Harry's Wine, Harry with a rosy nose passed by the security room of Glory Square, the security guard standing at the door greeted him with a smile. He is an out-and-out celebrity among the Saints fans.  Woolen cloth.  Especially the Saint Harry¡¯s Bar he founded, which was featured in the club¡¯s official magazine.  "Hi, you are on duty this morning." "Yes." After greeting each other, Harry quickly passed the security check in the security room, got on the bridge, and headed straight to the artificial island.  It was still early at this time, and the shops in Glory Plaza had not yet opened for business. They did not open until nearly noon at the earliest, so the huge Glory Plaza seemed very empty.  As soon as Harry walked into the Plaza of Glory, he saw a van parked at the entrance of the players' tunnel, which looked like it was being loaded.  At first, he thought he was delivering goods, but gradually he felt something was wrong.  Because he saw Paul, Southampton¡¯s groundsman.  "Strange, what's going on?" Harry was a little confused.  He is a very curious person, especially at this sensitive time, so he walked in the direction of the truck.  "Hey, Paul!" Paul heard the voice and turned around. When he saw it was Harry, he immediately laughed, "So it's you, Harry." "What's going on?" Harry walked over and found that it was you.  Loading.  But what is even more puzzling is that the goods loaded by the stadium staff are nothing else but the turf of the stadium.  "Haha, you know, the turf also has a lifespan, and the stadium needs to be replaced with a new batch of turf." Harry said, this is nothing to make a fuss about.  Southampton¡¯s style of play emphasizes smooth passing and receiving, and has high requirements for turf. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Glory Stadium also attaches great importance to the maintenance and replacement of turf.  "How long does it take to change it?" Harry asked casually.  It is said that these replaced turfs are still useful and will be sent to places in need for free.  "Well, usually it would be faster, but this time it will probably take longer." "Why?" Harry was a little surprised, "The weather has been nice recently." "It has nothing to do with the weather!" Paul said with a smile, "I have been notified above.  "Yes, there will be an event at the Glory Stadium in a few days. We won't plan to lay the turf for the time being. We will wait until the event is over." "There will be an event?" Harry was stunned.  It is actually quite normal for football stadiums to arrange activities.  For example, Wembley Stadium is often rented out to host rugby games, concerts, concerts, etc.  But the Glory Stadium has not been rented out yet.  "What big shot is coming? What kind of activities are they going to do?" "You don't know?" Paul raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly.  "How do I know" Harry was stunned when he said this, "Could it be" "You said it, I didn't say it!" Paul laughed, "You will probably receive it in the next day or two.  Notified." Harry stood there in disbelief, watching the staff use electric vehicles to take stacks of turf out and load them into the truck, and he was a little stunned.  Messi is coming!  He is really coming!  The strongest superstar in the world is joining Southampton!  An unprecedented feeling of happiness enveloped Harry, a feeling he had never experienced even when Ibrahimovic joined the team.  You know, although the Swedish center was powerful at the time, he had just encountered a Waterloo in Barcelona.  But now Messi is completely different. He is truly the world's number one superstar and is at the peak of his career.  ¡°Moreover, Ibrahimovic¡¯s strength and personal image are not as good as Messi.  "Paul, can you tell me what's going on?" Harry quickly grabbed Paul's hand warmly and asked.  "Uh I don't know the specific situation. I only know that the club plans to hold an unveiling ceremony. Also, all fans who hold the club's season tickets and memberships can enter the Glory Stadium for free."  After a pause, Paul added: "It is said that the entire Glory Plaza will also cooperate with the publicity, and you will receive a notice soon." Harry nodded, of course.  ??Messi¡¯s joining ceremony, I still don¡¯t know what to do when the time comesHow many fans did it attract?  If Glory Plaza doesn¡¯t know how to take advantage of this opportunity and cooperate with promotional activities, wouldn¡¯t the management staff of the plaza be spitted to death by the merchants?  If the information Paul said is correct, that means that fans who hold club season tickets and memberships can enter for free on a first-come, first-served basis.  In other words, whoever comes first will get the front row.  When Harry thought of this, his whole body was on fire.  He is not doing it for himself, because he is here. Isn¡¯t it easy to get a good position?  The key is his fan club!  "You can't say any more, Harry, I have to go in and work!" Paul patted Harry on the shoulder.  "Thank you, Paul, I'll buy you a drink later, for free for a week!" Harry said with a smile.  Paul also burst out laughing. This guy with a rosy nose always offers wine as a bribe, but I like it!  On the way back to the bar, Harry was already thinking in his mind that he must pass this news to the fans in his fan club as soon as possible, so that those fans who do not have membership but want to attend Messi's appearance ceremony,  They all rushed to apply for membership.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ ¡­¡­¡­ A fiery red Aston Martin successor speeds past on the Southampton Ring Road.  Passing through the site of the original St. Mary's Stadium, which was razed not long ago.  Arriving at the Royal Pier, I quickly found a spot in the internal parking lot and got in.  I heard the brakes squeaking, and the car stopped firmly.  A British young man in his early thirties, wearing a crisp suit and tie, who looked very fashionable, got out of the car.  After chirping twice, he locked the car door, stepped on his shiny leather shoes, and headed towards Glory.  Without special reasons, no one can drive into Glory Square. This is a rule set by Southampton.  When passing through the security gate, he showed his ID, swiped it, and the light was green, and he passed.  He is the president of Citibank Southampton Branch and the youngest branch president in Greater London.  Just like the city he is in, the sun is rising in the morning and is about to shine.  It was still early, but after he passed the bridge, he saw that the gate of Saint Harry's Bar was full of people.  Not only that, a long queue of people also extended to the door of the Citibank business hall.  ¡°Uh, no, it should be extending from the entrance of the Citibank business hall.  What's going on?  Jamie Crowder walked quickly and came to the door of the business hall.  The door has been opened, but the black security guard of the bank is guarding the door as if facing a formidable enemy, not letting anyone in. When asked from time to time, he will reply, "Sorry, it's not business hours yet, please wait."  ." Then there was a burst of complaints from the crowd.  "Hey, Jordan, what's going on?" Jamie Crowder came over and asked with a frown.  "Hey, Mr. Claude!" Jordan, the black security guard, nodded and saluted as soon as he saw him.  "That's right, they are all Southampton fans, and they are going to apply for a fan membership card." Fan membership card, a credit card used by Southampton to count fan points, was launched by the Saints in cooperation with Citibank. All fans have one.  Zhang, who uses a real-name system and cannot be resold or rented, is a credential for Saints fans.  "Apply for a membership card?" Jamie Crowder frowned.  Of course he knows what a membership card is. It was a thing he and Southampton Club worked out together, and he was greatly appreciated at the headquarters for this.  Except for the period when it was just launched, there are usually many people doing it, but when did it become like this now?  This long queue of people has almost reached the bridge. There must be hundreds of people at least, right?  "Hey, you're from a bank, right?" A fan who was at the front of the line and wearing a Saints jersey obviously saw the respect of black security guard Jamie Crowder, so he asked aloud.  "Yes, I am the branch president, Jamie Crowder." "Oh, hello, Mr. Crowder!" The fan was also very polite, "But, can you please start business as soon as possible."  "Why so many people?" Jamie Crowder was a little strange.  "You don't know?" The player was a little surprised.  It¡¯s not just him, many people around were equally surprised.  It feels like, I don¡¯t know, it¡¯s something quite outrageous.  "What's going on?" Jamie Crowder was a little embarrassed. He didn't want to receive such a look.  "Messi's appearance ceremony, as long as you have a membership or a season ticket, you can enter for free." Jamie Crowder was stunned, is there such a thing?  Looking at the long queue in front of me, I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart.  He never thought that Messi would have such appeal.  You know, this is just a joining ceremony.  ¡°If we really follow what they say, then Southampton tickets will probably become extremely popular.  "Mr. Claude, can you please start business as soon as possible? There are more and more people now, and there will probably be more later." "Yes, we received the news first and then came here. Others will be late."  It will definitely come, and there will be more people by then." "Isn't that right? Let's do it first. I have to think about how to spend and earn points later." "Messi will definitely join in the new season.  I want to support you!" "Really? I just want to see how strong our team will be after Messi joins!" "From now on, we will be super saints, killing gods when we meet, and Buddha when we meet!  ¡± A group of Southampton fans talked about the prospect of Messi joining, and everyone was overjoyed.  Jamie Crowder is a little troubled. It is definitely not possible to open early, but now there are indeed more and more people. It seems that he must quickly seek help from the City of London.  However, before asking for help, Jamie Crowder did not forget to call Southampton and complained about Messi¡¯s joining ceremony. Unexpectedly, the Saints were also innocent.  "We originally just wanted to attract season ticket and membership fans to participate, but the news got lost somewhere. As a result, it spread to ten, and now everyone knows the news, not to mention Southampton, even London.  Even people from other cities in the UK came here one after another, just like going to the market for the holidays. "Jamie Crowder accepted Southampton's explanation and apology, and it is estimated that they really do not want this to happen.  ¡°It can only be said that who could have imagined that Messi¡¯s joining ceremony would be so attractive to ordinary fans?  It is estimated that by then, the entire Glory Plaza will be crowded again.  The number one superstar in the world is still the number one superstar in the world!  At least Tottenham Hotspur¡¯s Cristiano Ronaldo joined without such a big fanfare and battle.  Even North London attracted more than 30,000 people to White Hart Lane this time.  But compared with Messi, he is still inferior.
