Super Marshal

"Mr. Gao Han, what you just said was so good!"

As soon as the interview ended, Gianni Liotta laughed and stood up to shake hands with Gao Han.

"I can guarantee that once the program is broadcast, it will definitely cause a huge response among Inter Milan and even other Italian fan groups."

Gao Han smiled lightly, "I hope so."

Knowing that Mr. Gao Han was busy and must have something else to do, Gianni Liotta did not stay long and asked the filming crew to pack their things and prepare to go to the next filming location in Pinetina.

When the filming crew hurriedly left, the originally bustling office suddenly became deserted.

Jorge Mendes just came over at this time and sat down next to Gao Han. He looked at Gao Han in front of him curiously, and he didn't know what he thought of. Suddenly he smiled slightly, as if he was very touched. .

"What's the matter?" Gao Han presented him with a cup of freshly brewed, fragrant hot tea.

"Nothing." Mendes shook his head, "I just remembered something."

"for example?"

"I remember that you told me before that when you were just coaching Atletico Madrid, a reporter wanted to interview you and wanted to arrange the location of the interview at Poseidon Square in Madrid. You wanted to change the location, but he It’s ironic to say that no one will recognize you wherever you go, remember?”

Gao Han nodded. He thought he was a person who held grudges, so of course he would not forget it.

He even clearly remembered that it was Cesc, a reporter from Spanish newspaper AS, but it seemed that he was no longer at AS.

Thinking of this man reminded him of his predecessor at Atletico Madrid, Fernando Zambrano.

It is also interesting to say that when he was coaching Atletico Madrid, Zambrano scolded him in the newspaper. It is said that he also earned a lot of royalties. However, after he left Spain, the guy seemed to be unemployed.

Not long ago, Paul Futrey was chatting about him. It is said that he hates the cold even more now.

The reason was that he accused Gao Han of leaving Spain, causing him to lose his job.

So, sometimes things in this world are really interesting.

Mendes didn't know that Gao Han was thinking of Zambrano, he just thought he was recalling the past, "It's only been a few years, and no one cared about it at first, but now even the Italian national TV station is rushing to interview him, and he has to make an appointment in advance. .”

Having said this, Mendes looked at Gao Han with eyes that were really filled with admiration.

Looking at the entire European football world, there is only one figure like Gao Han.

Gao Han recalled the situation at Atletico Madrid and felt very sad in his heart, but he always kept in mind how everything he had now came from.

"Aren't you the same? Mr. Jorge Mendes?" Gao Han laughed deliberately, "When you came to me to recommend players, I wasn't going to pay attention to you, but now, you are already one of the top agents in Europe. It’s not easy to find you now, and I have to look at your face all the time.”

Mendes chuckled, "Okay, okay, Mr. Gao Han, no matter what I do, I still have to listen to you?"

The two have worked together for many years and have a tacit understanding of each other. They are both honest and there is no problem at all.

Of course, a very important point is that Gao Han fully delegates power to Mendes to manage the business.

"Oh, by the way, how are things going in Madrid?" Gao Han asked with concern.

"It's done. According to your arrangement, I will go to Paul Futre and Lopetegui to ask for someone. How can they refuse?" Mendes replied proudly.

"That's good. As long as there is strong support, the Chinatown team will be promoted to another level in the new season."

When Gao Han funded the establishment of the Chinatown team, his purpose was just to give the first few players a place to go, and he didn't think much about anything else. However, the scale gradually expanded and became better and better. Now it has vaguely become the area around Madrid, and even It is a youth training base in Spain that cannot be underestimated.

With the aura of Gao Han and his gold-medal coaching staff, coupled with the youth training cooperation with Atletico Madrid, and being personally recognized by the Spanish Football Federation, the Chinatown team has become famous and attracted countless youth training in Spain. Players are sought after.

The youth training has improved, and the results of the first team are also not bad.

Since its establishment, the Chinatown team has been upgraded every year, from the original ninth level, the lowest level, to the current fourth level.

In the Spanish nine-level league system, only the first four levels are national competitions, namely La Liga, La Liga 2, La Liga 2 and La Liga 3. Among them, La Liga 3 is divided into a total of 18 groups, and the champion of each group enters Play-offs to fight for promotion to League Two.

The five-level leagues below the Spanish League C are only regional leagues in Spain and are not considered national events.

Therefore, when we reach West Division 3, the competitive pressure is no longer at the same level as before. If we want to go up further, the competition will be hundreds of times more fierce every time we go up to a higher level. This is a huge challenge for the Chinatown team. .

Gao Han is usually very busy and doesn't have much time to take care of the team's affairs. Lin Xia and Mendes help handle it, plus former players such as Dofei Yuan and Xiao Mu, they all do a pretty good job and run the business in an orderly manner. , everyone is eager for the team to continue to thrive and continue to advance to high-level leagues.

Therefore, Gao Han decided to rent several outstanding young players from Atletico Madrid this summer.

Technical director Paul Futre had already agreed when he was in Monaco. As for the second team coach Lopetegui, he will definitely not refuse, because these young players are temporarily unavailable to him and have been loaned to the Chinatown team. Nothing.

This is also the difference between high-level leagues and low-level leagues.

Some players who even looked down upon in Atletico Madrid's second team, by the fourth-level Chinatown team, are simply superstars who can block and kill gods and Buddhas.

In the final analysis, they are all professional players who have experienced more than ten years of hard training, and they are simply not what the fourth-level semi-professional players or even amateur teams can compete with.

With this group of powerful players, the Chinatown team is expected to be promoted.

This once again quotes the saying that there are people in the DPRK who like to be officials.

It is precisely because of Gao Han's relationship with Atletico Madrid, coupled with Gao Han's status and influence in Spanish football, that the Chinatown team can always receive an endless supply of talents.

Even if, in two or three years, the Chinatown team's own youth training players come out, the team will be even stronger.

"Let me tell you, in addition to bringing in several young players from Atletico Madrid, I also specially brought three young players from Portugal and South America to transfer to the Chinatown team. You are now the only team in the Spanish League C with players A team with foreign aid.”

"Really?" Gao Han was shocked.

Darling, it’s only the fourth level of the league and there are foreign players?

"Of course, can I not take more care of your team?" Mendes smiled.

"The transfer fee..."

"Don't worry, I've already paid for it. It's quite cheap, high quality and affordable."

Gao Han was relieved, but soon thought of another thing, "Someday you can get me a player information and list, and I will choose a few myself. If my team doesn't have a few leading stars to support the scene, it won't be a problem." It’s too shabby.”

Mendes almost burst out laughing when he heard Gao Han's last muttering.

My tall young master, are you still shabby?

Looking at the eighteen groups and hundreds of teams in the fourth level, who has as many youth training players trained by professional teams as your Chinatown team? And there are foreign players from Portugal and Brazil. Isn’t this enough?

"Oh, by the way, you are still the only team among the hundreds of teams in the Spanish Third Division this season that has a long-term sponsor of jerseys and chest advertisements. Not to mention the Spanish Third Division, even the Second Division League. It’s the One.”

The Chinatown team's jersey sponsor is Nike, the world's top brand, but the money given each year is too small. However, it is said that the Chinatown team's jersey sales are pretty good, and the revenue sharing is also considerable.

As for chest advertising sponsorship, it is a Chinese supermarket chain in Fuenlabrada, which they have cooperated with for many years. They also supported the Chinatown team before and now continue to sponsor the team's chest advertising.

"I think, judging from the current situation, the new season will be a series of wins, and there should be no problem in upgrading. But if we enter the second league, I am afraid we will have to find a suitable head coach." Mendes reminded.

Gao Han also agreed.

At present, the head coach of the Chinatown team is Dohi Yuan, but Gao Han himself knows how much he weighs. There is no problem in dealing with low-level leagues, but if he wants to deal with high-level leagues, it will be difficult.

As early as this summer, Dofeiyuan and Xiao Mu had told Gao Han about this matter, but they were delayed later because they were busy.

If in the low-level league, the Chinatown team can still rely on the dimensionality reduction attack of professional players, then in the second and second leagues that are filled with a large number of professional teams, the Chinatown team has no strength advantage. , the head coach’s coaching ability becomes very critical.

But who can be invited to coach?

Gao Han also had a headache about this.

But Mendes on the side was secretly laughing.

"Otherwise, just go and coach." After saying that, Mendes was already laughing loudly.

"Me?" Gao Han was dumbfounded.

Although it is his own team, can a coach who is a Champions League champion and has won La Liga, Premier League and Serie A championships coach a team in a lower league?

Isn't that a self-folding sign?

"By the way, Emery's start to the new season in La Liga was not ideal. Have you heard?"

Gao Han nodded, "He called me before. He lost three games in a row. It's really miserable."

After Emery left the Gaohan coaching staff, he first served as the head coach of Lorca. After doing a good job, he was hired as the head coach of Almeria in the second division this summer. However, as a result, he lost three games in a row at the beginning of the new season and his position was in jeopardy.

He was the first member of Gao Han's coaching staff to go out to coach alone, and he still maintains close contact with Gao Han. He called Gao Han before and told him about it. Gao Han also encouraged him and also gave him some opinions. I hope He was able to steady his mind, remain patient, and stick to the strategy he formulated at the beginning of the season.

It should be said that Emery is still a very capable coach, and Gao Han is very optimistic about him, but it is not easy to coach a team. If you want to achieve results, you can not only rely on the ability of the head coach, sometimes also The overall strength of the team and the situation of the management need to be considered.

In general, Emery still lacks some experience, so he can't rush and must take his time.

"If he comes to you, help as much as you can." Gao Han said.

Mendes nodded to show that he understood.

Emery is regarded as Gao Han's half-disciple. He went out alone to do it on his own. If he messed up, he would also lose Gao Han's face.

What's more, European professional football is a circle that values ​​relationships and resources. If Emery can succeed, it will also be of great benefit to Mendes's agency business.
