I AM the Football Star

Chapter 566: Chapter 151: Who Approves, Who Opposes?

Lu Yang said, ”Last time Mr. Tang came to Germany to watch the European Youth Championship final, a person like him travels with very high security guarantees. This includes a blind-spot-free monitoring system!”

”This system can restore the 3D models and positions of anyone or anything captured through technical modeling, real-time restoration!”

”Of course, the level of this system is very high, but I have looked into it, and if the core technology is downgraded, it can be developed for civilian use, and it already has international patent registration.”

”If this technology is applied to a football field, then theoretically... referees will only be able to make judgments watching the video with a 360-degree blind-spot-free view!”

”I named this system Video Assistant Referee, or VAR for short!”

Bang!

Maniero’s eyes were about to pop out.

Martivini too.

Including Sotu.

They used to be players and deeply understand the impact this can have on football.

In football matches without broadcasts, as long as you get the referee onboard, players can foul as they like, and theoretically, the referee can make any judgment.

But with video records, referees can’t do that anymore; evidence would be left behind.

Of course, video footage has blind spots, so the authority of the referee is still significant.

Later, with more cameras, the supervision of referees and players on the field increased.

But even so, smart people gradually found the boundaries.

In recent years, goal-line technology has been a hot topic among fans.

People couldn’t understand why FIFA wouldn’t use such a handy and simple technology.

FIFA repeatedly claims that the system is not mature enough.

What does mature mean?

Does it mean waiting until referees find a loophole in the system so that they can still make arbitrary judgments?

There is news that goal-line technology will be introduced in the next World Cup.

This means the technology will be fully recognized and popularized in three years.

However, it has been nearly ten years since the technology was proposed!

And now, Lu Yang unexpectedly mentioned a VAR technology that sounds even more advanced, derived from top-tier security technology!

This...

Once this concept is thrown to the public, undoubtedly, it will be an atom bomb in the football world!

This restricts the main referee’s authority a million times more than any goal-line technology!

A billion times!

At that time, what difference will there be between the main referee and the audience?

What is a trump card?

Maniero and Martivini looked at the calm Lu Yang, that’s literally a trump card!

This move will collapse half of UEFA’s sky!

This San Remo, really can’t suffer any grievance.

Otherwise, they would have to turn the entire football world upside down.

Who can stand this?

”Let me think, let me think.” Martivini couldn’t take it, saying he needed a moment.

But when his cards were laid out and it turned out to be three A’s, how could Martivini dare not go all in?

What he called thinking was probably thinking about how to play this hand well.

That night, Lu Yang called Tang Yuqin and got in touch with Mr. Tang.

A few minutes later, one of Tang’s sons, Tang Yuqin’s uncle, answered the phone and talked with Lu Yang in detail.

”The patents don’t matter, we can directly authorize them to your company.” Tang Mou said in an encrypted call, ”This matter can be regarded as one of Yuqin’s projects for Sino-Italian football collaboration.”

”But due to the source of the technology, we have to take 50% of the shares, which is the regulation of our system.”

”On Yuqin’s side, she also needs to have 10%, after all, she is your introducer; the production manufacturer and after-sales will have 5%. As for the remaining 35%, however you want to split it with those from the Italian Football Association, it’s up to you.”

”Personally, I think your 25 is quite suitable; let them take the remaining 10.”

”Of course, if there are collaborations outside of Italy in the future, our distribution will follow the old rules; let the people there or the promoters take that 10%.”

The other party was very professional and had rich commercial operation experience, evidently honed in large official enterprises.

Basically, by the next day, a company named ”Tang Lu Security” was established.

The legal representative was a boss of a safety production company, but he holds very little stock.

The major shareholders are mysterious figures, Lu Yang, Tang Yuqin.

This company has only one product and service, which is the installation and maintenance of ”Photography and 3D Model Restoration Technology” equipment.

This equipment also has a name, called ”Football Game Video Assistant Referee System”!

...

In this world, what kind of people can make the most money?

People who can reasonably use resources!

Why could Jack Ma suddenly build a massive financial empire?

In a vulgar way, it’s relying on the country’s developed transportation network and the internet!

The transportation network was set up with state money, and almost everything is free to use, but theoretically, the more you use it, the more advantages you take, so Jack Ma used the share meant for 1.3 billion people alone, then he became Ma Ba Ba.

Internet’s basic construction is also reliant on the state, Jack Ma may have personally taken action and cultivated the public’s consumption habits with the network platforms, but this effort is negligible in his trillion-dollar empire.

He spent a few billion to amass trillions.

This is reasonably utilizing resources.

Now, VAR technology is available domestically, and Lu Yang happens to have access.
