Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 84

Star City, "Sports Weekly" newspaper.

"Fuck! Crystal Palace actually beat Arsenal to win the League Cup?"

A young editor cried out while browsing the web.

"What? True or false? Isn't today April Fool's Day?"

"Are you kidding me? Arsenal are the strongest team in England now. They are unbeaten in the Premier League this season. Will they lose to Crystal Palace?"

"Yes. If I remember correctly, Crystal Palace is still a Championship team, right?"

"Yes, it's the English Championship team. But since Fan Zhiyi and Sun Jihai left, I haven't paid attention to Crystal Palace. Has it become so strong now? Can they beat Arsenal?"

"I remember that there was a news article on the international edition last year, saying that the Crystal Palace was bought by us Chinese people. Xiao Zhang, you seem to be the one who wrote that article. Let me tell you about the specific situation."

"It was written by me. But I only know that a Chinese man named Chen Ran bought the Crystal Palace. As for who this Chen Ran is, I haven't found out. At that time, Chief Editor Yan had already returned to China. I no longer know."

"The main reason is that Crystal Palace no longer has our domestic players playing, and it is not a Premier League giant, so naturally no one pays attention."

"But the current boss of Crystal Palace is from Huaguo."

"The problem is that the fans only recognize the players, who cares who the boss is?"

A piece of news attracted the editors of the surrounding newspapers, discussing enthusiastically about the Crystal Palace, which upset Arsenal to win the championship, and its mysterious new owner.

This scene happened to be seen by Xu Yuan, the president and editor-in-chief of the newspaper who was passing by.

"What are you all doing there?"

When everyone saw that the boss was coming, they immediately dispersed, leaving only the young editor who bravely stood up and told the story.

"Oh? I didn't expect that Chen Ran to really make a lot of achievements."

"President, do you also know this Chen Ran?"

"Well, Liang Feng, who took over as editor-in-chief Yan, reported to me a while ago, saying that Chen Ran is very popular in the UK now, and he even found a popular British singer to be his girlfriend."

"What? True or false? President, please tell me in detail."

Upon hearing such explosive gossip, the group of editors who had just dispersed gathered together again regardless of the majesty of the leader.

"Ahem, I didn't ask for details. At that time, I thought it was just a playboy's whimsical farce, so I didn't let Liang Feng continue to follow up."

"However, now that Crystal Palace can upset Arsenal and win the League Cup, it shows that Chen Ran really takes football as a career."

"Then let Liang Feng do an exclusive interview with him, so that the domestic fans know that although the Crystal Palace no longer has any domestic players, there is a Chinese national as the boss."

"Okay, don't worry, the leader, I'll call Liang Feng right away."

At the same time, in Yangcheng, which is nearly [-] kilometers away from Star City, a similar scene also happened at the rival Ford News of "Sports Weekly".

Moreover, Kang Ning, a London-based reporter for Ford News, soon received the task of interviewing Chen Ran.

London, Arsenal FC.

Wenger came to the office and started working as usual. Yesterday's League Cup final was just a relatively important game for him.

After losing the game, I feel a little depressed, a little unhappy, that's all, it's far from angry.

Because the champion of the League Cup was not in his eyes.

Of course it's good to get it, and it doesn't matter if you don't get it.

However, he still had a lot of gains in this game.

Looking at the information on the main players of Crystal Palace on the table, Wenger nodded with satisfaction. He asked his assistant to sort it out overnight.

This pig farm named Crystal Palace is full of top quality pigs.

And now that it's about to be listed on the market, it must be bought back before the old rival finds out.

At this moment, Wenger was very proud of his decision to meet Crystal Palace a little earlier.

After all, no matter how beautiful the data on those materials are, there is no peace of mind to test them yourself.

Now, after 120 minutes of testing by England's strongest team, Arsenal, Wenger has put the seal of inspection on these Crystal Palace players in his heart.

It's time to have a chat with that little guy from Huaguo.

At this time, Chen Ran was still hungover at home, unaware that he had become the target of many people again.

In order to take care of Chen Ran, Cheryl asked for leave today and did not go to the company.The two people who are usually very busy, are rarely free to stay at home today.

It was three poles high in the sun, and Chen Ran was woken up by urinating.

After washing with water, he found Cheryl in the kitchen.

"Honey, I'm hungry."

Cheryl turned her head and smiled sweetly at Chen Ran.

"Honey, of course you're hungry if you haven't had breakfast. Wait a minute, it'll be right away."

Seemingly thinking of something again, Cheryl immediately added another sentence.

"Oh, by the way, Stephen called you before. I thought you were still sleeping, so I didn't wake you up. Call him back now, maybe there is something important."

"Okay, dear, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Ran went up to kiss Cheryl, then poured himself a cup of hot water, and went to call Stephen back while drinking.

"Stephen, what do you want from me?"

"Are you finally awake? Well, there are two things. One is that Arsenal's coach Wenger wants to ask you to meet; the other is that two media from your country want to conduct an exclusive interview with you."

"Wait a minute, you mean Wenger wants to see me?"

"Yes, that's what his assistant said, and that Coach Wenger told you about it before."

"Well, he mentioned something. But I thought it was just a common courtesy, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"Then do you agree or not?"

"Of course I agreed. We have just snatched the League Cup from Arsenal. If we refuse at this time, it will really end up in trouble."

"Okay. What about the second thing? Do you agree to both interviews?"

"What are the names of those two media outlets?"

"One is called Sports Weekly, and the other is called Ford News."

Chen Ran was taken aback, good guy, either he doesn't come, or he wants to come together.

This is called not being friends and not getting together.

These two are the most influential print media reporting football in China, and it is not a day or two to compete with each other.

It seems that the impact of Crystal Palace's victory in the English League Cup this time is more far-reaching than I previously expected.

As the old saying goes: "Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles."

It doesn't seem to be the case.

If you win the championship yourself, won't it spread to the country thousands of miles away?

However, it is still necessary to make a good plan, how to make good use of the influence of these two media, and provide help for the development of youth training in China in the future.

Thinking of this, Chen Ran suddenly had a bold idea.
