Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

On July 12, 2000, Barcelona, ​​which has not been at the forefront of the world's major media recently, held a press conference at its own club.

In fact, as early as early July when Barcelona changed ownership and the new club president took office, he held a press conference and announced some things. But it was not as grand as this press conference because the mysterious boss from the East will be in person this time. Attend this press conference.

So early on, a group of reporters began to block the door. Whenever a car came in, they pressed the shutter in their hands as if they were free of charge. Especially when several Mercedes-Benz cars came together and Yang Dongxu got out of the car, these reporters were like He chased me like crazy.

"Sir, are you the boss behind Barcelona?"

"Sir, what do you think about the current Barcelona fans asking you to get out of Barcelona?"

"Will you sell your stake in Barcelona?"

"Is it true that Figo transferred because of your arrival?"

Both the male and female reporters pressed forward as if they were desperate for their lives. Fortunately, Barcelona was well prepared beforehand.

When Yang Dongxu acquired Barcelona, ​​in order to improve the safety of the club and players, he also hired some bodyguards from the Blade Security Company to isolate these crazy reporters away from his body.

"Give way, everyone, give way. If you have any questions, go to the club hall and ask. Now please get out of the way and let us in first." Laporta blocked the vanguard in front and helped clear the way. Yang Dongxu was not convenient at this time. He couldn't speak, so he could only temporarily deal with the reporters in front of him.

However, it took more than ten minutes to squeeze through the short distance of less than 50 meters. There were too many reporters coming this time. The club was not allowed to let some small media stand aside and let the big ones stand aside. Authoritative media entered, but the press conference venue was still packed to the brim.

Obviously, those at the entrance cannot enter the venue. At this time, if you don’t block it, take more photos and ask more questions. How can you publish headlines in your own newspaper?

When they saw the commotion outside, the reporters who entered the venue almost rushed out to interview first-hand information, but luckily they were blocked by the security guards inside, and they felt more at ease under the threat of not being able to come back in if they left. .

However, when Yang Dongxu sat on the podium, all the reporters wanted to rush forward and take pictures, but fortunately they were blocked back by the security guards who had been prepared.

"Okay, don't be chaotic. This is a press conference, not a place for gossip news. You should maintain the quality that media people should have. Since we are holding a press conference, we will definitely answer some of the questions you are more concerned about in an orderly manner. "Laporta had begun to sweat on his forehead, holding the microphone to maintain order at the scene, "Now I would like to invite the owner of the club, Mr. Yang Dongxu, to speak."

The media reporters who were blocked back slowly became quiet, but the cameras in their hands and the cameras next to them were never heard, because in addition to newspapers, there were TV stations at the scene for several years.

After maintaining order, Laporta breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that since assuming the coveted chairmanship, he had either been living in excitement or under various huge pressures. It had only been less than half a month. I have aged ten years and am so tired.

"Now that the press conference has begun, we will try our best to answer the fans' concerns about the current situation of the team, the recruitment for next season, and the transfer of the club's management.

But now I will announce the club’s signing situation first, and finally give you free time to ask questions. Before that, you need to keep the order and quiet at the scene, and don’t be as chaotic as before, otherwise everyone will waste time here.”

Laporta gave up the microphone and Yang Dongxu lowered the microphone in front of him and said.

There was another buzzing sound coming from the scene, but now the reporter did not have a microphone, so the sound was not very loud. Yang Dongxu continued to speak: "First of all, I want to announce that Figo's departure has nothing to do with me. It is a joint decision between both parties.

choice. He has his demands and agent, and Barcelona has its own arrangements.

For example, after sending away Figo, in order to perform better next season, we decided to spend huge sums of money to introduce other stars. There has been great progress in this regard. For example, we have reached a 5-year contract with Serie A superstar Zidane.

With a transfer signing worth 60 million per year, you can see this world superstar appear in the Barcelona dressing room in three days at most."

Buzz…

As soon as Yang Dongxu finished speaking, the reporters and media below immediately went crazy. They knew that Barcelona would definitely make more aggressive moves when they held a press conference today in the face of the current pressure from public opinion, but no one expected that a big bomb would be dropped right away.

Zidane is a superstar at the same level as Figo, and more importantly, Real Madrid just announced that it has paid 56.1 million US dollars for Figo, which has thrown away a nuclear weapon in this summer's transfer market.

And Barcelona changed hands for 60 million to sign this year's Footballer of the Year, half of whom are already in their arms. This is obviously a confrontation with Real Madrid. Didn't you get the most valuable transfer this year for 56.1 million?

Are you poaching me for membership fee? That's fine, I'll just throw 60 million back to sign a player with a higher price.

Yang Dongxu looked at the reporters and media below with a smile. After waiting for a moment for these people to digest the news, he continued: "In addition to Zidane, we have also reached an agreement with Eoto and Larsson.

Agreement. If nothing goes wrong, these two stars will also wear Barcelona jerseys at the beginning of the new season.

In addition, in order to provide benefits to fans and allow them to relive Barcelona's past glory, the club has reached an agreement with Inter Milan of Serie A.

Re-signed Barcelona's former glory Ronaldo Luis Nazario da Lima back to the club for four years and 36 million.

Although Ronaldo was admitted to the hospital in April this year due to another rupture of his patella and will not be able to play for a long time. But I believe he will stand up again. Barcelona is also willing to give more support to players who are still struggling on the football field despite injuries.

Lots of opportunities.

In addition, in order to regain the glory of Barcelona in the past or even go further, the club management decided to launch a star awakening plan, one star per year, whether it is cultivated by Barcelona itself or through strong signings.

Every year, if there are no super rookies in the Barcelona team to strengthen the team, I will ensure that at least one star will be introduced to strengthen the team next season."

If one nuclear weapon was not enough just now, then one after another is being thrown at the heads of the reporters and media present. This is driving their heads crazy, and even the fingers that press the shutter are out of shape.

Ronaldo, that is Ronaldo. Although everyone is worried about whether he can return to the top due to injuries, he is recognized by the world as an alien on the court. Although the nuclear weapon of goals, he cannot compete with Qida due to injuries. Compared with the transfer fee of 60 million yuan.

But 36 million is spent to sign a player who won’t be able to play in the next year or even a year and a half, and even if he does play, he may not perform well. Even if this player is recognized as the best in the world, Barcelona still feels proud by waving money with both hands. Inhumane.

And this is not the most arrogant. What is even more arrogant is that if our own club cannot cultivate a super rookie in a year, then it will just spend money to buy a star from all over the world. This is simply rich and willful.

In the past, whether it was to create news and buy points, or to fan the flames, they always portrayed the new owner of Barcelona as a fool who only knows how to spend money.

But what they didn't expect was that when a fool who knew how to spend money would spend money like this, they couldn't despise him, and even had the urge to kneel down and lick him.

All the reporters present felt that they needed a quick-acting Jiuxin Pill, and a distressing question arose. Which slogan should be used on tomorrow's front page?

Today’s first sky-high transfer fee of 60 million for Zidane?

Barcelona spent huge sums of money to buy back the injured Ronaldo. Is it a big gamble? Or is it a failure?

With the one-star-a-year plan, Barcelona is preparing to build a super galactic battleship?

There are so many hot spots that any one of them would be a front-page headline. Now there are three of them at once, and the space on the headlines is not enough.

"Okay, now it's time for reporters to ask questions." Laporta looked at the reporters below who were burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, and felt secretly happy.

During this period of time, in order to keep this secret, he almost suppressed it, but now he was no longer the only one who was troubled by it all. As expected, people who are in pain will feel much better when they see others in pain.

After Laporta's words fell, the press conference fell silent. The reporters who had been eager to ask questions before were a little dumb at this time, and they didn't know what to ask for a while.

The reason why they wanted to ask questions before was because they wanted more hot spots to make front-page headlines to increase newspaper sales. Now they have got the hot spots for the newspaper, and they are still happy and troubled. Three of them came at once. Now they don’t want to continue the interview, they I just wanted to leave this press conference at a sprint speed of 100 meters and dare to release these shocking news before other media outlets.

"Hello, Mr. Yang, I am a reporter from ABC newspaper. Please tell me what you think about the people who have left the club's management denounced you as a tyrant and dictator?" A female reporter raised her hand and asked for the microphone.

The reporter who was originally in a daze seemed to come alive in an instant. He quickly raised the recorder in his hand and kept clicking the camera to capture Yang Dongxu's expression and reaction when he heard this question.

This is the absolute storm that has pushed Barcelona to the forefront. Being able to interview is another front-page headline. As for the issues that have made too many headlines today, let’s take them down first and leave them to the newspaper boss to have a headache. I am only responsible for them.

Collect more breaking news.

"When the club decides on the chairman and coach, the shareholders usually hold a meeting to discuss and then vote to decide. The final result is that the party with more shareholder support wins. Is there any problem with this process?" Yang Dongxu asked a rhetorical question without directly answering.

"No problem." The female reporter nodded.

"Then I am now the major shareholder of Barcelona, ​​which means that on the premise of occupying the absolute number of shares, whoever I vote for can directly win. So, do I have any problem with appointing the club's chairman and team coach?" Yang Dongxu continued to ask.

road.

"This..." All the reporters in the venue were stunned.

Is there a problem?

There must be no problem. Originally, the appointment of the club's chairman was the result of the game between the board of directors and shareholders. Whoever has the supporters standing behind him with more shares will win. Not to mention Barcelona, ​​football clubs all over the world play this way, or not just

Football clubs, companies, racing, and other sports are all like this.

The major shareholder has absolute decision-making power, so since Yang Dongxu is the largest shareholder of Barcelona Football Club, whoever he votes for will directly win. Is there any problem with him personally appointing the club chairman?

As for the head coach of the football team, this is no longer a problem. Whoever the majority shareholder says is the head coach is the head coach, and whoever they say should be fired will be fired, because he is the majority shareholder of the club and he has the final say.

But the fact is such a fact, but why do things feel so weird?

They admit that what Yang Dongxu said is correct. He is the absolute majority shareholder, so he has the final say in the club, but the management who left Barcelona are not wrong to call him a tyrant and dictator, right?

Ah... I'm so confused. Why are there so many confusing things in today's interview? They need quick-acting heart-saving pills.
