Super Marshal

The International Champions Cup, also known as the Guinness Cup, was founded in the United States in 2009. After six years of operation, it has already become one of the important warm-up events every summer, and basically only invites giant European teams to participate. .

In the past few years, Chinatown aimed to develop the Asian and Middle Eastern markets, especially China, so it declined the organizer's invitation. However, after winning the Champions League last year, the organizer gave Chinatown the highest treatment for a wealthy team. The team also hopes to further develop the North American market, so the two parties agreed to train in North America in the summer of 2015 and participate in the International Champions Cup.

But what I didn't expect was that Chinatown actually successfully defended the Champions League championship. This made Chinatown's status in the minds of fans around the world even higher. In addition, Chinatown officials and players have always been active on the Internet, and they were well received in the United States. A very warm welcome.

The team's summer training camp is arranged in the United States and will start in early July. Except for the international players who participated in the America's Cup, everyone will return to the team. The American fans also give Chinatown extremely high courtesy, and even provide tickets for the team's daily training. All votes are hard to come by.

Armando Marcos also personally led the Ministry of Commerce to the United States, on the one hand to participate in the establishment of the Chinatown office in New York, and on the other hand to conduct final negotiations with multiple sponsors, hoping to negotiate before the office was established. Complete the contract.

The New York office is Chinatown's third office in the world. The first one is in BJ, China, located in the Daxing Chinatown Training Center, and the second one is in Dubai, the Middle East. Both offices serve Chinatown in developing Asia and the world. The Middle East market has made a very big contribution, so Chinatown established a New York office this summer to show its emphasis on the North American market.

It is worth mentioning that Chinatown is the second European team to establish an office in the United States. The first one was Bayern Munich. Stimulated by Chinatown’s establishment of an office in China, the Bundesliga giant quickly established an office in the United States. .

When Gao Han returned to Europe from China, the team had already played two warm-up matches in the United States, beating Benfica 3-1 and Juventus 4-2. Zidane's team was not only welcomed by North American fans outside the court The team received a warm welcome, and the fans were never disappointed in the stadium. They played offensive football heartily, and were greatly appreciated by both the media and fans.

This also allowed Armando Marcos to return from North America with a full load.

“This time in the United States, we have signed a total of three global partners, which can bring in at least 20 million euros in sponsorship revenue every year. In addition, we are also in contact with several potential customers. I believe that in the next few years, the North American market will bring more We bring in great revenue.”

In his office at the Chinatown training center in the southern suburbs of Madrid, Armando Marcos reported on the results of his North American tour.

Riding on the momentum of defending the Champions League, Chinatown has become a high-speed money printing machine, spinning rapidly, attracting more and more business resources from all over the world.

These three global partners have all been discussed before. This time, taking advantage of the establishment of the New York office, they announced it to the public, hoping to become an instant hit and gain popularity.

Facts have proved that media and fans around the world are indeed scrambling for attention.

With these three sponsors, plus the huge profits from the International Champions Cup, Chinatown's trip to North America is definitely a fruitful one.

"How's the team doing?" Gao Han was obviously more concerned about the team's performance.

He now insists on focusing on both business operations and competitive sports. He must be tough on both hands.

"We won two consecutive warm-up games. Zidane also made secondary preparations during the training camp. The game against Juventus was very good." Chinatown General Manager Hui reported.

The outside media and fans are not clear, thinking that in the two games between Benfica and Juventus, Chinatown is just rotating, but in fact, it seems that these are both four, three, and three formations, but they are two different sets of tactics. .

The reason is simple. Chinatown is currently negotiating the transfer and contract renewal of several players, just in case.

The first one to bear the brunt is Griezmann. If nothing unexpected happens, the French winger is likely to leave the team.

Mendes personally told Gao Han that although Griezmann's liquidated damages are as high as 150 million euros, so far, the teams willing to pay the liquidated damages for the French winger include Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea's four giants.

In other words, once this deal is concluded, Griezmann will catch up with Neymar and become the second superstar in European football history with a worth of 150 million euros.

Right back Danilo is also favored by many teams. Barcelona, ​​Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea are all determined to win him, especially Barcelona, ​​which has been pursuing it for a long time.

Also poached by wealthy teams is Illarramendi. This Spanish midfielder has been favored by Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Manchester City. In particular, Real Madrid and Manchester City have listed him as their top signing. Target.

"I received news that Guardiola has basically confirmed that he will coach Manchester City. After his two-year contract with Bayern Munich expired, he has decided not to renew it. Paul Futre went to Munich in person to convince him." Gao Han He said with a serious look on his face.

"Are you sure?" Cantarero was also a little surprised.

This will further change the earthquake in European football and break the existing strength pattern.

"He lives in my house. He called me a few days ago and said he wanted to pay it back. What do you think?" Gao Han shook his head and smiled.

Guardiola coaching Manchester City is bound to cause a chain reaction, and Ancelotti coaching Real Madrid will become a reality.

"Where's Bayern Munich?" Cantarero asked with concern.

"Tuchel." Gao Han said lightly.

But after hearing this, Cantarero and Armando Marcos' expressions changed.

Thomas Tuchel was Gao Han's top assistant when he coached Bayern Munich. After Gao Han left, he went to coach Mainz. His results were quite good and he was recognized by Bayern Munich and was able to move to the Allianz Arena.

But in this way, we have Zidane and Emery in La Liga, Tuchel in Bundesliga, Guardiola in Premier League, plus Klopp who will coach Liverpool this summer after leaving Dortmund, Pochettino of Manchester United... …

It seems that the camp of Gao Han's disciples is going to expand further.

For this achievement, let alone the current head coach, even among the legendary coaches who have retired, who can compare to Gao Han?

"No wonder Manchester City paid a lot of money to dig up Everton's Stones." Cantarero praised.

This is a deal just announced by the Premier League. Everton defender Stones moved to Manchester City for a high price of 60 million euros.

For a player who is only 21 years old, has only played the main role at Everton, and has yet to prove his strength in a major competition, Stones's worth is absolutely sky-high.

There is only one reason why Manchester City was willing to pay such a sky-high price for Stones, and it was Guardiola's choice.

However, Real Madrid is in trouble now, because they are also in urgent need of central defenders. With Stones' current price tag so high, it will be difficult for the Galacticos to snatch him.

It is said that Galacticos is interested in Athletic Bilbao's central defender Laporte, but the left-footed central defender's release fee is also extremely high. Stimulated by Stones, this transfer is likely to exceed Stones.

Relatively speaking, the four major central defenders in Chinatown basically choose to stay with the team, and the club is unwilling to let go of Alex Sandro on the left, because Moreno is not yet capable of playing the main role, but there is a problem on the right. Toya and young player Bellerin, the technical team believes that Danilo's departure from the team is not unacceptable.

Illarramendi is the team's main defensive midfielder. Chinatown is in the process of renewing his contract. Isco, De Bruyne, Pogba and Koke have all decided to renew their contracts. Kante even signed a contract last season. Even if he raised his termination fee to 100 million euros, it would be basically impossible to leave the team.

Hazard, who plays on the left side of the frontcourt, is the team's superstar. According to Gao Han's estimation, he will also be the favorite to win the FIFA Ballon d'Or in 2015, with a total of more than 40 goals scored in a single season. In addition, Chinatown defends the Champions League. In the absence of major competitions, it is understandable that Hazard can achieve such a report card and win the award.

Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are in the limelight, and it will not be easy to beat them to win the award.

If Griezmann on the right leaves the team, Dybala will be a very suitable candidate. Jese, Martial and Kingsley Coman can also play this position. On the contrary, it is Firmino on the striker. If he really left the team, Chinatown decided to recall Jesus from Brazil.

The style of play in the new season will continue to revolve around the offensive ideas formulated by Gao Han and Zidane, fully activating the freedom and creativity of the frontcourt attacking players and further tapping the team's potential.

As for the income from selling people, Chinatown will mainly divide it into two parts. One part is invested in China’s youth training, and the other is to comprehensively upgrade Chinatown’s training facilities and continue to build the world’s top training center.

As the club's operating income increases, the salary structure of players will also be further broken. Hazard, the highest-paid player, has reached an annual salary of 10 million euros, and the salaries of other players will also rise accordingly.

A very important reason why Gao Han and Armando Marcos considered selling Griezmann was due to salary structure considerations.

The transfer fee is just a one-time deal, and many are paid in installments, but what really puts pressure on club operations is the players' salaries, which is the heaviest burden.

Especially now that the annual salary has exceeded 10 million. If the salary structure cannot be controlled well, the good situation created by Chinatown after many years of operation will inevitably be destroyed. Gao Han is also cautious about this.

Of course, Griezmann himself is probably happy to leave the team and go to Manchester United.

The reason is very simple. Manchester United offered him a maximum salary to invite him. Rooney is old, Falcao was sold, and Griezmann was destined to be Manchester United's star. I wonder, how could the French refuse?

In comparison, whether you go to Barcelona or Manchester City, you have to succumb to Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. What is the difference between this and succumbing to Hazard in Chinatown?

After talking about the transfer, Gao Han quickly changed the topic to the players who came to Madrid with him, the 15 and 16-year-old players from BJ Chinatown. They will follow Chinatown in Spain in the next three months. train.

At present, Gao Han has determined that Gao Ren, Wang Lei and Zhao Jun will stay. These three players all have the potential to become first-line stars in Europe's top leagues. Gao Han will cultivate them personally, while other players will be reviewed by the technical department, and then or Mendes has already established ways for them to stay on the team, or be arranged to go to other European teams for trial training.

Gao Han sincerely hopes that they can all stay in Europe, but it will definitely be difficult for some people to adapt.

There is no way around this. Survival of the fittest is so cruel.

Even if the youth training is as strong as Chinatown, there is no way to guarantee that every player can become a talent.
