Chapter 111: Young and old gentlemen, please come in

Guardiola left full of expectations, and before leaving, Wei Xun poured a lot of chicken soup into his mouth.

At this time, Guardiola is like a senior game player, constantly adjusting tactics and improving the strength of his players, with the purpose of upgrading and challenging more powerful bosses.

Leeds United happens to be a boss-level opponent.

Not long after Guardiola left, Giuseppe Marotta, Zhao Tai, Paratici and Wei Xun also set off. They were going to the Notts County Fans Club, the first building in the Notts County base to be put into use.

Take a look.

Exit the club office building and cross an asphalt road between Meadow Lane Stadium and the Data Analysis Center to reach your destination.

Eight minutes later, Wei Xun and the other four stood at the gate of the Notts County Fans Club.

The main building of the club is off-white and has sharp edges. The Notts County Club's team emblem hangs on the top of the door of the club, and there are two red magpies on the side. There are several Chinese and English bilingual Notts County fans' clubs.

The words were made into a red hollow logo and also embedded under the team logo.

It has been seven months since the construction of the Notts County Base began. The interior decoration and ventilation of the canteen, villa area, player dormitories, medical center and other buildings are nearing completion. If it were not for the protection of everyone's health, the work at the end of last year would have been completed.

These places could be used by then, but Wei Xun repeatedly insisted that they must be ventilated for three months, so it was postponed until now.

"Boy, this club is so grand. Isn't it bigger than the auditorium in the compound when we were kids?"

"Brother Tai, you have underestimated the financial resources of our Notts County. The guild hall is more than twice the size of the auditorium in the compound!"

Wei Xun also recalled watching performances and playing hide-and-seek with his friends in the auditorium when he was a child. More than ten years have passed and he really misses it.

I really hope that the Notts County Fans Club can also become the best childhood memory of the next generation of Notts County people.

David Prowse, the president of the Notts County official fans club, has been waiting inside the club for a long time. Seeing that Wei Xun and others have not come over yet, he was about to come over to look for them, but he did not expect that they were already at the door.

.

"Wei, you guys are here. Don't stay outside. It's very cold. Let's go inside quickly. I'll show you the internal structure of our club..."

Under David's guidance, the four of Wei Xun walked into the Notts County Fans Club.

The design of the six-level ladder with six grids on each level was added by Zhao Tai later, hoping to achieve good luck. Wei Xun didn't believe in Feng Shui, but who let Zhao Tai take care of the money bag?

Unlike all the auditoriums Wei Xun had seen in China, there was an empty venue under the rostrum of the Notts County Fans Club.

Since the Wangjiang Building is not big enough, it may be used as the Notts County Football Club in the future, so Wei Xun specially asked the workers of Shengfei Group to make all the seats in the club removable and liftable.

Desktop style.

In fact, even this raised rostrum can be raised and lowered. This way, the layout of the hall can be adjusted to the greatest extent according to the actual number of people present, and the situation of large areas of empty seats will not occur.

When the conference is held, the seats are brought up. If there is a celebration banquet or a gathering of fans and players, a round table will be used, so the fan club can only provide a venue.

On the second floor of the club, there is also a circle of offices, screening rooms, bathrooms, duty rooms and storage rooms. Behind the rostrum is a large projection screen. Wei Xun wants to show fans free movies and broadcasts here in the future.

As a signal for Notts County's away game, it will serve as the second home court. It must be said that this plan is very avant-garde in this era.

The office of the Notts County Official Fan Club has been officially moved to the second floor of the clubhouse. When the official meeting is held in a while, a sign will be unveiled at the entrance of the clubhouse.

On the ceiling of the Notts County Fans Club, there is a magpie woven with lights. At the heart of the magpie is the Notts County team emblem.

"Wei, look at the hanging position of the banner and lantern we marked. Do they meet your requirements? I remember that when I went to China, they were basically placed like this..."

"Oh, David, I think you have to ask our General Manager Zhao about this matter. Brother Tai is very experienced in this. I heard that he wrote all the Double Happiness in the club one stroke at a time."

Wei Xun turned around and looked at Zhao Tai behind him, and said half-jokingly, "Right, Brother Tai..."

"I'm right for you!"

Zhao Tai was also a little speechless. Last time, he worked hard to create a bunch of Double Happiness. At first, he thought it was a bit ugly, but later on, the more he wrote, the better it looked.

I don't know if some unlucky kid from the youth training camp posted it online, but it was exposed by a local Chinese tabloid in Nottingham. It was said that Double Happiness was written wrongly. After a careful comparison, it was indeed written wrongly, and one was missing.

Hey, it was a big joke.

"David, when the fan meeting comes, how many people are expected to attend?"

"There must be more than 500 people. We can accommodate a total of 4,000 people here, and there are only 3,600 seats. The remaining few hundred people will have to follow me to the second floor to stand."

David is quite clear about this data. After all, he knows how many fans there are in total and how many people have bought Notts County annual tickets.

Wei Xun ran around and spent a lot of money to help him solve the problems left by history, and he had to work hard and sincerely. It was he and his son who led Wei Xun to do this in the Notts County Club.

.

Although David's son, Curtis, always thought that David was his stepfather, David, his real father, lived a cool life. If the whole story was revealed, his son would probably not recognize him as his father.

Anyway, the surname has been changed, and the person has become his family. Everything is fine, except that he has never heard little Curtis call him "Dad".

"David, how did you calculate these five hundred people? David, it feels a bit small..."

"That's quite a lot, Wei. From top to bottom, including myself, our Notts County official fan club has a total of 793 people. The Nottingham University student fan club founded by John and his friends has a total of 206 people.

We have 1,020 annual card holders in Notts County this season and 621 half-year card holders. There are still many duplicates here. Some of them are unlucky and something is wrong.

Those who can’t come can’t be counted…”

This is the first time Wei Xun has heard complete information about Notts County fans. There are still more than 20 days until February 12, 2002. Wei Xun hopes to hold the first Notts County fan meeting on the Spring Festival.

Fan meeting.

Notts County will always belong to Notts County fans and this will never change.

"David, Giuseppe, February 12th is our Chinese traditional festival, the Spring Festival. We don't have a game on that day. I would like to hold our first Notts County fans meeting on this day and treat everyone to a meal in the evening.

Dumplings, watch the show..."

"Wait a minute, brat, how much money are you going to spend on treating people to eat dumplings? You also have to watch a show! I just heard David count, there are thousands of people, can you make it back just by selling tickets?

?”

"Of course you can, Brother Tai."

"Everyone, listen to me. In the future, Notts County will definitely play in the Premier League. This fan base is absolutely not enough. We also plan to build a new stadium. We don't necessarily have a 10% attendance rate, right?

However, we can’t just think about reaching the sky in one go. From now on, I plan to work with Wangjiang Tower, the official fan store, and the tea company to plan a promotional event to increase the card-holding base of our Notts County fans. We will issue weekly cards and monthly cards.

There are five types of membership cards: membership card, quarterly card, semi-annual card and annual card. The second half of the season has also started for a while. I think we will focus on issuing weekly cards, monthly cards and quarterly cards.

The weekly card can control the games within one week after activating the card, the monthly card can control all the games within thirty days, the seasonal card can control the games within ninety days, and so on. The card can be upgraded, or a monthly card can be exchanged for four

A weekly card, but you cannot keep the discount card for this season until next year. If you have not used the card once after buying it back, you can exchange it for a new card next season, or you can accept the transfer of the card, but

Card fees cannot be refunded.

In addition, let the news about the fans meeting on February 12th be released. The tea company, fan shop, and Wangjiang Tower will each come up with some preferential policies and prizes. Three days later, we will start to simultaneously promote Notts County fan membership cards and activities.

As of February 4th, anyone who holds a Notts County fan membership card can sign up to participate in the event on the night of the 12th to celebrate the Spring Festival and eat dumplings at the Notts County Fans Club. We have set aside a week to prepare the ingredients.

, just arrange the scene and that’s it.”

"This kid is playing with nothing. Okay, he really learned the old chairman's business skills. If you push out this membership card, you can get a lot of money back. Okay, this kid can do it!"

"

"Wei, I have to say that you are the best ticket-selling club president I have ever seen..."

"Giuseppe, let's see the results before we talk, haha..."

…

Three days later, Wei Xun, Marotta and Zhao Tai personally stood at the entrance of Wangjianglou Catering, Notts County official fan shop and Magpie Tea Store, promoting Notts County’s membership card program and various products to the guests.

Store promotions:

"Young and old gentlemen, please come in and find out about the discounts and apply for a Notts County Annual Card. I'll pay for your purchases today..."

"Apply for a Notts County fan membership card now and receive a gift package from the Notts County Fan Store. There are many gifts and discounts..."

"Take a look, take a look, get a Notts County fan membership card and get free Magpie tea. For twenty-five pounds, you can't avoid suffering a loss, and you can't be fooled. You can enjoy free tea in the stadium, and we will also give you an extra gift.

Five bottles of Magpie tea, five pounds for free, take a look, don’t miss it..."
