Chinese fans really love Messi! 320,000 yuan to photograph Messi's shirt and spend millions of yuan to make a light show

Messi returned to Paris Saint-Germain in his first game after winning the World Cup, leading the team to win and scoring a goal, and after the game, the shirt worn by Messi has a new owner - it was photographed by a Messi fan from China in an auction.

According to the "Parisien", after becoming a World Cup champion, the first Paris Saint-Germain shirt worn by Messi has been auctioned for 43,623 euros (about 320,000 yuan).

On January 11, Messi's number 30 shirt was auctioned along with a total of 17 shirts worn by other players in Paris against Angers, including a fan buyer from China who was determined to include the shirt in his collection - he made his first bid of 22,000 euros and auctioned it after the seventh bid; In addition, in the same auction, Neymar's jersey was sold for 7894 euros.

Previously, after the Grand Paris games against Lens and Strasbourg, the auction price of the World Cup golden boot winner Kylian Mbappe's shirt climbed to 14,083 euros and 15,017 euros, but its price is still only one-third of the price of Messi's shirt.

From this side, in fact, it can also be understood why when Barca had to kick away Messi after they ran out of money, an important reason why just a few days later, Greater Paris was willing to quickly accept Messi - that is, Messi is not only absolutely worth buying on the pitch, but also absolutely worth having in terms of return in the market!

After Messi just joined Greater Paris, at that time, Paris reporter Romano released news that on the first day Messi joined Paris, within 24 hours, his new jersey sales in Paris were close to 30 million euros; Among them, from the perspective of market share, orders in China account for 64%!

This data not only shows that Messi has great commercial value as a king-level superstar, but also shows that Messi has a very large number of fans in China.

Moreover, the number of Chinese fans who love Messi is not only large, but also not low in quality - in the Chinese Simplified circle, when people talk about people who love Messi, they basically use "Messi fans" and rarely "Messi fans", which is a big difference between Messi and other lovers of stars.

This shows that, first, China's Messi fans pay more attention to football itself and the game itself, and like people in the entertainment industry, there are very few people who regard Messi as an entertainment idol chasing; Second, while Chinese fans love Messi, they are willing to spend money to watch the game, and they can also see that they are true love for Messi.

During the Qatar World Cup, there were reports that Chinese Messi fans came to Qatar to watch Messi's matches by cycling thousands of miles.

And after winning the Copa America, some Chinese fans spent millions of yuan in the metropolis to play a light show for Messi, and after this World Cup victory, a female fan named "Gua Dawang" once again spent millions of yuan to celebrate Messi again on the landmark advertising giant screen in Shanghai; At the same time, in several major cities in China, Chinese fans have spent a lot of money to play light shows for Messi.

Compared with Ronaldo, another football superstar in the Messi era, the number of fans (or fans) of the two in China is actually similar, but they have never heard of Ronaldo's fans spending money to play CAII for their idols - but I have seen on the Internet that Ronaldo's fans once proposed crowdfunding to play a light show for their idols, but later the matter was also resolved.

Some people say that it is possible that Mero's distribution of fans (or fans) in China has different social classes and different incomes - this view is not known because there are no real statistics to back it up.

However, from the fact that China's Messi fans are willing to spend millions of dollars to play light shows for Messi many times, and they are willing to spend more than 300,000 yuan for a Messi jersey, it can still be seen that Mero fans may still be different in class distribution.

It is generally believed that Ronaldo is a banner set up by Real Madrid against Barca with Messi as the standard-bearer, and Messi is more known for talent, hard work, self-discipline and humility, and its agency team is his family, while Ronaldo is very high-profile, marketing ability, and very successful, the Mendes professional agent team behind it is world-famous, in terms of market packaging, Messi is obviously far behind Ronaldo.

Coupled with Ronaldo's rich and handsome image and personality marketing, it is not an exaggeration to be known as the number one Internet celebrity player in world football - this is also a major reason why Ronaldo can win a huge fan base in China.

Of course, Ronaldo's fan group in the Chinese Simplified circle also has more characteristics of the "rice circle group" in the entertainment industry. Like them, for the extremely perfect character of Messi, when they can't find any attack points, they actually insult Messi as a "dwarf, hormone man", which is obviously the standard style of people in the rice circle.

However, now that Messi has won the World Cup, he has completed football's greatest career Grand Slam - now, all the spewing smears about Messi can only make the trolls themselves look more ridiculous: because this can only highlight the greatness of Messi, but it reflects the extremely sad psychology of Messi!
