Chapter 18 The Flag
"Gareth will continue to captain the team when he returns to Crystal Palace and will also serve as an assistant coach for the first team."

As soon as Chen Ran finished speaking, the reporters in the audience started to discuss again.

"Tsk tsk, this Chinese man is still a bit smart. Bring Southgate to help, at least there will be no major problems in the locker room."

"It makes sense, this trick is really beautiful."

"In this way, are we underestimating this Chinese man?"

"Don't jump to conclusions, this is just the beginning, let's see what he will do later."

"Next, I will introduce you to a genius from Portugal - Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro."

Following Chen Ran's words, Ronaldo came out from the backstage.

The young man is handsome and energetic, besides being immature, he is simply a perfect idol player.

"Everyone, I believe everyone must be very interested in my spending 1000 million euros to introduce Ronaldo."

"The reason why I am willing to spend a huge amount of money to snatch Ronaldo from many wealthy clubs is because I firmly believe that in time, our Ronaldo will be able to reach or even surpass the great Brazilian genius with the same name."

"OMG!"

"What the hell is he talking about?"

"Is this guy crazy?"

"He sure is a megalomaniac."

"It seems that this Chinese man is indeed an illusionist."

"I think this Mr. Chen needs a psychiatrist."

Everyone on and off the stage, including Ronaldo himself, was stunned by Chen Ran's rhetoric.

Ronaldo is about to cry, boss, I don’t have such strong self-confidence myself, where did you get it?
Besides, can't we say this in private?
Do you have to say it in front of the entire English media?

I'm still young, I can't handle it with my small body!

Chen Ran looked at the already boiling press conference, curled his lips secretly, thinking where did he go, these british guys really have never seen the market.

After finally waiting for the scene to calm down, Chen Ran was able to continue introducing the next player.

"Next, let us welcome Josep Guardiola, a famous player from Spain."

"crash"

The applause was a little sparse.

Guardiola, as a star who has been famous for many years, it stands to reason that reporters should give enough courtesy.

It's a pity that all the media reporters sitting below are covering football. Everyone knows about Guardiola's positive urine test.

"Does this Chinese man have any brains? Buy players who are about to be suspended?"

"Aren't you worrying about it? You don't care how much money you have."

"There's a lot of bullshit money, it's all bank loans."

"Don't he know about Guardiola?"

"It's possible. He's a native of China who doesn't understand football. How could he know this? He must have been tricked by his agent."

"Well, I feel a little bit sorry for him now."

"Put away your hypocritical sympathy, you are the one who scolded him the most in the newspapers."

It's not that Guardiola on the stage didn't see the reaction of the reporters in the audience, and his face was a bit ugly.

"Everyone, after joining the team, Josep will also serve as the team's assistant coach at the same time like Gareth."

"I have no doubts about Josep's coaching ability."

"I think that in the near future, Josep is fully capable of leading the team to win the Premier League, the Champions League and even more titles as a head coach."

"OMG!"

"Again! He's here again!"

"I'm now sure that this Chinese man is delusional."

"Then call an ambulance."

"Calm down, is there an ambulance in the mental hospital?"

"I don't know. All I know is that I'm going crazy myself."

"It's outrageous! The Premier League champion, the Champions League champion, does Guardiola have a coaching certificate now?"

"Okay, okay, calm down. People are just touting their own players, do you still take it seriously?"

"That's not so flattering, is it? It's too exaggerated."

"Maybe this is the habit of Chinese people?"

"Whatever. I'm starting to have a headache now. There are too many materials to write and not enough pages."

Guardiola is now beginning to realize the feeling of Ronaldo just now, and his legs are a little weak.

He, a player who had never coached for a day, was touted by Chen Ran as a champion coach.

Just now, his face was pale and ugly, but now it is completely red and hot.

Boss, please do me a favor and let me go.

Guardiola no longer has anything about drug testing in his mind, he just wants to find a crack in the ground and hide.

Shame.

Finally, Chen Ran began to introduce the next player.

"Next, I will introduce you to Diego Pablo Simeone, a famous player from Argentina."

It was quiet, surprisingly quiet, in huge contrast to the previous turmoil.

If there was some applause when Guardiola came out just now, then all those who greeted Simeone were silent.

So much so that the low-pitched comments of some reporters under the stage could clearly reach Chen Ran's ears.

"Why would this Chinese man buy Simeone?"

"Uh, does he not know about Simeone and Beckham?"

"It's really possible, after all, it's been five years since that happened."

"Did no one remind him?"

"It is estimated that he was cheated by the agent again."

"Hmph, here's a good show to watch."

Chen Ran's heart sank, and he looked backstage with some worry.

Fortunately, the Argentine is indeed a tough guy and walked out with a smile on his face.

Good job!
Chen Ran secretly praised Simeone in his heart, and then continued the introduction with a louder voice.

"Diego will also serve as an assistant coach of the team, just like Gareth and Josep."

"Like Josep, Diego has all the qualities to be a top coach."

"I believe that, given time, Diego will also be able to lead the team to the league championship, many championships."

"shush"

This time the reporters responded with boos instead of applause.

"This Chinese man is really crazy, he dares to speak for the Argentines."

"I don't care if he knows about it or not, if he dares to speak for the Argentines, it's wrong."

"That's right, Argentines go!"

If the scene of the previous press conference was just boiling, it is about to explode now.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Stephen, who knew the British better, immediately walked up to Chen Ran, grabbed the microphone and announced the end of the press conference, and then dragged Chen Ran and Simeone into the backstage.

Sky TV, which was broadcasting the entire news conference live, also sensed that something was wrong and immediately cut off the live broadcast signal.

Thus, the press conference of the Crystal Palace Club ended in such an anticlimactic manner.

The players who were still preparing to play one by one in the background looked at each other.

what's going on?
We haven't shown up yet.
