Super Marshal

In the morning, an Airbus flying from Europe landed slowly at BJ Capital Airport.

An hour later, Gao Han walked into the office of BJ Chinatown Training Center.

In the office, father-in-law Lin Guoping and general manager Xiang Tianming have been sitting in the office waiting for a long time.

"What's going on? Are you in such a hurry?" Gao Han asked as soon as he entered the door.

This time, he flew back to BJ from Madrid overnight in a hurry. His eyes were still covered with bloodshot eyes. It was obvious that he didn't get a good rest on the plane.

Just yesterday afternoon, he received a call from his father-in-law Lin Guoping, telling him that he would be on the list of the Prime Minister's delegation to Brazil for the BRICS Summit next month. This surprised Gao Han greatly.

He is not a member of the system. What is he going to do when the chief minister visits Brazil?

Therefore, as soon as he heard the news, he immediately put down his work in Madrid and flew back to BJ overnight.

This is a big deal!

Lin Guoping told Gao Han not to worry too much. After telling Gao Han to sit down, he poured him a glass of boiling water.

"I specifically inquired about this matter. The BRICS summit and the World Cup finals are held one after another. The Brazilian president invited the chief minister to attend many times as early as April, but he declined at first because of his schedule. But then the schedule changed and the chief minister decided to attend. and personally called your name.”

"I still don't understand, why did you click on me?" Gao Han still couldn't figure it out.

"It's very simple. You are our country's best business card in football and even sports. And I believe you also know that the country is paying more and more attention to the development of national sports, especially football. , the supreme leader has expressed this attitude on many different occasions."

Gao Han understood what Lin Guoping said.

In fact, when he founded the Chinatown Youth Training Center, it was thanks to the secret support of the chief.

Some people think that this is the chief's personal preference, but Gao Han believes that this is something that will inevitably happen after a country develops to a certain level and reaches a certain stage.

For a country, the sports industry is not just an economic account, but also a national strategy that profoundly affects the quality of its citizens, from Europe to the United States to South Korea and Japan.

In fact, in the past few years, there have been calls for elevating national fitness to the level of a national strategy.

Just imagine, how many industries can be elevated to national strategy?

How can this be determined and changed by one person's preferences?

"I heard that the country is intensively promoting the plan to develop the sports industry. This time it will clearly stipulate that national fitness will be elevated to a national strategy, and football is the world's largest sport. No matter from which aspect, it is an important The most important thing is that this aspect must be taken into consideration when the chief minister visits Brazil to participate in the World Cup finals."

After listening to his father-in-law's words, Gao Han felt much more relieved.

He may not understand other things, but football is his specialty and he is very familiar with it.

And according to Lin Guoping, he mostly traveled with the group and stood on the platform. There were a lot of people traveling with the leader this time, and the schedule was very tight. Even if Gao Han wanted to say a word to the leader, he might not be able to. It may not be possible.

However, being able to be named by the chief personally and visit with the delegation will definitely greatly enhance Gao Han's influence at home and even around the world. It is also an official certification of Gao Han's achievements in the past ten years.

Everything and every decision made by the country will not be without purpose. I believe that this invitation to Gao Han will be the same this time. In any case, this will be of great benefit to Chinatown and Gao Han. And no harm done.

After understanding the links and stakes, Gao Han felt much more relaxed.

In recent years, he has interacted with many political and business celebrities at home and abroad. He is no longer the young boy he was just a decade ago.

But since he was accompanying the top leader on a trip, Gao Han still needed to learn many things. Fortunately, he had diplomats like Lin Guoping around him, so he didn't have to ask others for help.

As for the training center that Gao Han was most concerned about, under the leadership of Lin Guoping and Xiang Tianming's efforts, it has been progressing very smoothly. All links have been cleared up, and it is basically progressing steadily according to China Town's original plan.

The only regret is that Gao Han originally planned to personally host the Chinatown Youth Football Invitational Tournament to be held in Madrid in July this year, but now he has to give it up because he will visit Brazil with the delegation.

"Those boys are all looking forward to it now. In the past year, they have all worked hard, especially the thirteen or fourteen-year-old brats, who are waiting eagerly." Xiang Tian Ming laughed.

He is now considered the number one figure in the country, and his reputation is even more famous than his father who is engaged in real estate. This makes both father and son sigh with emotion. They made the right bet on Gao Han back then.

Especially when Xiang Tianming's father heard that Gao Han had been selected by the supreme leader to accompany the delegation, he was even more impressed. Xiang Tianming straightened his back in front of his father, feeling that Gao Han was his teacher. My friend’s partner is even more impressed.

Gao Han also smiled happily after hearing this, "It's a pity that conditions don't allow it. Otherwise, we can definitely arrange more exchange events of this type. When Spanish Prime Minister Rajoy visits China in September this year, China and Spain will Comprehensive cooperation in football will be officially signed, and future exchanges and competitions will be much more convenient."

"Are you sure?" Lin Guoping asked with concern.

This is something that Gao Han has been vigorously promoting in the past few years. If it can be implemented, it will not only be of great benefit to Chinatown, but also be of great benefit to the development of Chinese football.

"It's basically settled. There are only some details left to negotiate, but it can't change the overall situation. In the future, our Chinatown will become the Chinese Football Association's first overseas youth training base, and the Chinese Football Association can also arrange national-level teams or some selections. The team went to Spain to compete in the lower leagues.”

In addition, it also includes the training of coaches, referees, and other personnel related to the football industry.

But in Gao Han's view, this is just a test of the waters. If it succeeds, it can go a step further in the future, continue to cooperate with other leagues in other countries, and further deepen the two roads of introduction and going out.

"By the way, Tianming and I have studied carefully and the next two training centers have been basically determined. Jilin Yanbian and XJKS. These two places have a strong football atmosphere and are the places where talents are produced." Lin Guoping said.

"However, I believe you are also aware of the problem."

Gao Han certainly knows that setting up youth training centers in these two places is definitely more difficult and laborious than in other places.

But the situation in Yanbian and KS is also known to Gaohan, and they are indeed areas with considerable potential.

"You can just go ahead and build these two training centers. In terms of funding, Chinatown can provide one billion yuan. I believe it should be almost enough."

Lin Guoping and Xiang Tianming both looked at each other. Gao Han's investment in youth training over the years has been real money.

If he could use his salary to support the development of the youth training system before, now he has no income.

"Don't worry." Gao Han obviously saw their thoughts and smiled, "The transfer of Godin to Atletico Madrid has been basically negotiated. It's 50 million euros, not a penny less. In addition, the team may Even if we have to sell another player and invest one billion yuan, Chinatown can still support it."

Since Gao Han said so, I believe he must be confident, so Lin Guoping and Xiang Tianming did not ask further questions.

In fact, they all know that the most important thing is that Gao Han sticks to the bottom line and refuses to give in. Otherwise, Chinatown will not be short of money at all, and some large domestic consortiums want to take shares.

As long as Gao Han lets go, there will be no problem, let alone one billion yuan, ten billion yuan.

There were even investors who were interested in cooperating with Chinatown, bundling Chinatown’s domestic training centers with many projects, and putting them on the market. With Gaohan’s reputation and the current domestic vigorous development of the sports industry, it will definitely be able to attract a lot of attention. It was a big sum of money, but Gao Han refused it almost without thinking.

He is a very conservative person at heart, and he believes that youth training should not be done this way.

What's more, if you go public to make money, it won't harm the interests of small shareholders?

I still remember when Gao Han sternly refused, he said, "Youth training is not a business!"

Sometimes Lin Guoping thought that his son-in-law was definitely a stubborn and stubborn "idiot", but perhaps what the chief personally valued this time was his stupidity that was not in line with the mainstream of the current society.

…………

Entering June, the World Cup is getting closer and closer, but the European football transfer market is also becoming more and more lively.

Many wealthy teams, including Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​have learned from previous experiences and lessons, hoping to finalize their favorite signing targets before the World Cup.

But it was Atletico Madrid who first ignited the flames of war.

The Shenlian Legion has been struggling to pursue Chinatown's main defender Godin in the summer of 2013. However, after Chinatown sent Miranda to Inter Milan, Gao Han personally appointed Godin to stay on the team.

Facts have proved that this decision ultimately led to Chinatown's glory in the following season. Godin played a crucial role in two runners-up and the Champions League championship, and also caused the Uruguayan central defender's value to skyrocket.

But because of this, there were problems with Godin's contract renewal. The salary requirements of the players and the club were far apart. In addition, Gao Han's promise when he retained Godin last year, Chinatown finally chose to let him transfer. meeting.

Atletico Madrid paid €50 million for Godin as a release fee.

The 28-year-old top central defender officially joined the Sheets Army.

At the press conference announcing Godin's joining, Simeone said with excitement that Atletico Madrid will continue to fight for three championships in the new season and strive to achieve the Triple Crown mission that was not completed last season.

General Manager Hill also promised all fans that the club will continue to strengthen signings, especially at the left winger position.

Sure enough, in less than a week, Atletico Madrid once again officially announced that it would introduce Chilean winger Sanchez from Manchester City for a high price of 80 million euros. This player will set the highest transfer record in Atletico Madrid's history.

After Gareth Bale left for Real Madrid last season, Sanchez was lost again this season. Manchester City's star-studded lineup finally failed to maintain, but with the rise of local players such as Sturridge and Harry Kane, Manchester City is not worried about the offense in the frontcourt, but focuses more on strengthening the thickness of the lineup.

No matter how wealthy the Abu Dhabi consortium is, it is impossible for it to invest huge sums of money every year.

Atletico Madrid's two consecutive blockbuster transfers, investing 130 million euros before the World Cup, have also greatly stimulated the entire European football market, making everyone firmly believe that this summer's transfer market will be extremely lively. .

Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and other teams also followed Atletico Madrid and took action one after another.
