Chapter 84: Attention from China

"In yesterday's Championship game, Millwall clashed with the away team again. The referee showed three red cards and eight yellow cards!" - "Thames Daily"

"Millwall's bad habits die hard, Southampton hit back hard!" - "Daily Mail"

"From this game, it is not difficult to see that Millwall has no intention of playing at all. They are more focused on some off-court moves. Stewart's performance is extremely exciting. He is the culprit who provoked this whole thing."—— The Sun

"The two sides almost staged a full-scale martial arts. This is undoubtedly bad for the entire English football environment. The FA should increase the punishment. They even got yellow cards for the coaches of both sides. This is enough to explain the problem" - " Mirror

"This is undoubtedly a very failed game for Millwall. When they ran out of tricks off the pitch and fought with Southampton and were sent off, they were also bloodbathed by the visiting team Southampton [-]-[-]! It's a loser and a loser" - The Daily Telegraph

The next day, there is no doubt that the English media will all focus on this game as a report.Dig deep into all the news related to this game, but most of the media pointed their finger at the mad lion Millwall, who said they have poor character
At the same time, words such as Charlotte, Southampton and Millwall instantly became popular words in the British Isles, and Charlotte's "resume" was turned up again.

In the Ideal International Building in Zhongguancun, Haidian District, the capital of China, in the conference hall of the Sports Department of Sina Group.Lu Yang, vice president and deputy editor-in-chief of Sina Sports, wearing thick gold-rimmed glasses, threw several newspapers in his hand on the conference desk with a "snap".

"Who can explain to me what's going on??" Lu Yang's voice was very low, and anyone familiar with him knew that this was a sign of a volcanic eruption.

Yu Hang, Lu Yang's friend and editor-in-chief of Sina Sports News, took the newspaper that Lu Yang had thrown on the table.

Arms waving and celebrating are on the front page cover of a newspaper, The Guardian, dated this morning.

"In yesterday's Championship game, league leaders Southampton thrashed Millwall [-]-[-], but the focus was on the three red cards and eight yellow cards."

Yu Hang read it carefully. As a senior sports media professional who graduated from the University of Liverpool, the original English version of the newspaper was almost no different to him from the Chinese version.

The beginning of the article was all about the conflict in that match, but Yu Hang knew that Lu Yang was definitely not referring to this.Although these years, due to the convenience of the Internet, foreign sports news can be easily obtained in China, but so far no domestic sports news media will watch a British Championship game, and the one on the previous cover Young man, obviously an Asian.

The fact that an Asian is on the headlines and cover of The Guardian, and it's on the sports page, says a lot.

"Although Southampton's young Chinese coach was defeated and eliminated in the English League Cup, he is bright in the league. The Saints he is now leading have achieved an impressive record of 2 wins, three draws and one loss, ahead of No.[-] The Reading team scored five points"

Yu Hang didn't have the heart to read the following words anymore, his eyes widened, and the three English words "Southampton's Chinese young marshal" lingered in his mind for a long time.

Yu Hang, who was a little confused, checked again, whether he hadn't read the full English version of the article for a long time, so he was confused.It turned out that although he was nearsighted, his eyesight was still very normal with his eyes on.

China's head coach? ?Coaching in Southampton, England? ?
Yu Hang looked up at Lu Yang fiercely: "What the hell??"

"I also want to know what the fuck is it!!" Lu Yang, who has always been polite, rarely swears at work. Those who know him well know that he has always been so polite at work and in public. What made him swear was when he was watching the game, whether it was in front of the TV screen or on the stadium seats at the scene.

"I just came back from a business trip in London, and I bought a few newspapers at the airport. As a result, the sports sections of newspapers all over the UK were reporting on this British Championship match, and my focus was not on the cheating red and yellow cards. "Lu Yang pointed at the portrait of Charlotte in the newspaper and shouted: "Who is he? Where did he come from? How did he come out?? Why haven't I heard any news for so long??"

"His name is Charlotte. He is 23 years old. He graduated from Cologne University of Sport. He is proficient in 5 languages ​​including his mother tongue. He will be the head coach of Southampton Club in July this summer." The voice of a small staff member was in the conference room. sounded.

"You know him?" Lu Yang turned his head and glared at the clerk who made the sound.

The little clerk was a little embarrassed, and he weakly held up the supplementary page of "Mirror" in his hand.This newspaper was one of the few newspapers that Lu Yang threw on the table before. When Yu Hang took the "Guardian" and read it, the clerk picked up another newspaper out of curiosity.

As a newcomer, he didn't know that it wasn't that he didn't want to read the newspapers left on the table, but that other than Yu Hang, other people were not qualified to read them before him.

This is the basic "survival in the workplace" rule, but he, a rookie who is new to the workplace, doesn't understand it.

Lu Yang grabbed the newspaper in the hands of "rookie" and read it carefully.Before that, his attention was focused on the homepages of several newspapers, especially the large photo of Charlotte on the "Guardian" that made his eyeballs unable to move, so he didn't notice the supplementary page of "Mirror" on the content.

The content is very simple. It is basically to paste Charlotte's resume on it, including name, age, nationality, and some qualification certificates. As for the football manager game resume written by Charlotte to attract the attention of the presidents of major clubs did not appear in the newspaper.

In the eyes of club chairman Curtis, that "resume" is really inconvenient to be disclosed to the media. After all, Southampton is a football club, and its primary job is football. It is not funny.
After reading the materials, Lu Yang understood the problem: "In the UK, the name of this young head coach named Xialuo is spelled in English and all media use the word Charlot instead of the Chinese pinyin XiaLuo or Luo.Xia. In addition, it is a newly promoted team in England's sub-level league, so many media did not pay too much attention to it, especially the domestic media did not know about it at all."

"Okay, I understand, thank you very much, David, I have the opportunity to treat you to a drink in the UK." Yu Hang hung up the phone and said to the colleagues in the conference room: "I just called to my Liverpool, UK Friends from the media nearby confirmed that this Charlotte is indeed the head coach of Southampton, Chinese nationality, and everything matches the resume in the "Mirror".

"And in the official information released by the Southampton Club and the FA, this Charlotte also uses the English name Charlot. This incident caused some small sensations in the UK before the season, and these two days because of The vicious incident between Southampton and Millwall has caused discussions all over English football."

Yu Hang graduated from the University of Liverpool with a major in football industry and has an MBA degree in football industry. (The football industry major of the University of Liverpool is also the only institution of higher learning in the world that grants MBA and PhD degrees in the professional field of football industry. The graduates are all over the world in all fields of the sports industry, so graduates like Yu Hang are very famous, and their international sports network It is also very deep.) Therefore, his international football network is very extensive, and he once worked for the AFC, so the things he sought to prove must not be wrong.

"Let's not get entangled with these, now we should send people to Southampton immediately. I want our Sina Sports to be the only domestic media that focuses on this young man at present, and the most important thing is to get an exclusive interview!" As the best player in this field The editor-in-chief, Lu Yang immediately made a judgment.

"First-hand information!! Everyone is engaged in the news industry, so I don't need to repeat the importance of first-hand information and reports?!" Lu Yang looked very excited: "We must tell the news To fans across the country!"

"I'll get ready right away, not tomorrow, I'll fly to London overnight tonight!" Yu Hang was also very excited.

As far as those present in this meeting room are present, Yu Hang is undoubtedly the most suitable person to take charge of this matter. England is almost equivalent to his base camp!Even Lu Yang, the vice president of the sports department, could only stand aside.

"It's all up to you! If you have any questions, just call me. My phone is open 24 hours a day. If you need anything, the company will give you the green light!" Lu Yang made a decision directly.

Yu Hang nodded, and immediately packed up his working laptop and materials and got up: "So-and-so, you come with me and be my assistant!"

"Rookie" looked around before realizing something.He widened his small eyes in disbelief: "Me?"

"Yes, it's you. I need an assistant to help me sort out documents and look up information. By the way, do you speak English?" Yu Hang just remembered that he must be able to speak English if he wants to go to England.

"Yes. I passed CET-6 in college!"

"Okay, let's go. I'll give you two hours to pack your luggage." Yu Hang raised his hand and looked at his watch while walking: "We'll meet at the airport at five o'clock!"

Colleagues in the conference room looked at this newcomer with envy and hatred. In their eyes, this guy is undoubtedly a lucky one!

Lu Yang, who was still in the meeting room, clapped his hands and focused everyone's attention: "I think the English Champions League will also be the focus of our work in the future. Everyone must seriously memorize English after work today. Champions League information, and then fully cooperate with Yuhang. After Yuhang received good news from the UK, I consider adding a page for the English Championship on the homepage of our sports website.”
