Mister Legend

Chapter 407 The Departure of the Hometown Team

Li Mudi's itinerary for returning to China this time is still very tightly arranged. Even if he takes the round-trip flight for more than 20 hours, he only has about a whole day of time left to deal with his personal affairs. It is indeed a vacation that is better than staying in Europe to coach. The team is still busy.

On Tuesday afternoon, the head coach of Turin, who had barely adjusted the jet lag, came to the residence of Cambridge Film and Television Company in the capital, and held an important meeting related to the future development of the company with several main persons in charge.Under the leadership of CEO Lin Zixu, Cambridge Film and Television has risen rapidly in just two years after its establishment. Although its overall strength is still relatively weak, compared with giants like Penguin, Ali, Huayi, and Wanda, even its toes are weaker. Not comparable, but because the several film and television dramas in which he participated in the investment were all successful, his fame has become a legendary existence in the industry.Coupled with the good connections brought by Lin Zixu and Li Moody, the company's potential really amazed the outside world.

However, after the Turin coach got the equity of the Volcanic Spring Club in Beijiang, he decided to use this hometown team to practice his hands. After accumulating enough experience in management, it is possible to acquire a club in Europe to complete his own. It's a dream I've never forgotten for so many years.Li Mudi, who had no extra energy to devote to the film and television company, simply decided to sell some of the shares he held in his hands. In addition to increasing the voice of the original shareholders, he could also introduce some powerful helpers to the company.

The negotiation process was briefly mentioned, and the final result was: Li Moody's share dropped from the original 50% to 15%, Baozi also dropped from 20% to 15%, Lin Yuner increased to 21%, and the three together reached 51%. It can play a decisive role in critical situations; CEO Lin Zixu’s shareholding ratio has risen to 25%, making him the largest shareholder among shareholders; of the remaining 24%, Brother Sun Honglei got 4%, and he is very optimistic about Cambridge Film and Television The development of the company decided to participate in earning milk powder money for the children; the last 20% was eaten by Penguin Film and Television Company at a high cost. After defeating several other giant companies, they reached a strategic partnership with Cambridge Film and Television.

20% of the shares, Boss Ma took out more than 5000 million soft girls, stunned Li Mudi who just heard the news, after Baozi and Lin Zixu's explanation, he realized that he was only investing in "In the Name of the People" A company that was only established in the first drama has a market value of nearly [-] million!Cambridge Film and Television is naturally not worth the money, but due to the recent box office hit of "Operation Red Sea" in China, the impression that all the works of the company are classics has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and everyone is very optimistic about its development prospects. The price of shares has been raised to such an extent in the competition among several giants.

Since he is the main shareholder who took out the shares, according to the proportion, Li Mudi can get more than 5000 million yuan, which has doubled his total investment in two years.However, considering the company's future development needs, he only took away [-] million, and the rest of the money was left in the company's account for emergencies.

On Wednesday and Thursday, there were business promotion activities held by various endorsement companies. When the Turin coach returned to the hotel from morning to night, his voice was almost speechless, and his calf was too busy to stand. After a long time, there are signs of cramps, which can be said to be very hard.And because the TV series "Celebrating More Than Years" is about to start filming in Duyun Qinhan Film and Television City in early April, Lin Yuner has already gone to participate in the script discussion in advance, without his girlfriend by her side, Li Mudi is also a little depressed.

After finishing the work in the capital, the Turin coach returned to his hometown in Bingcheng by plane at noon on Friday. The most important affairs of his return to China are still waiting for him to deal with.

The 2018 Tianchao Football League A schedule has officially started on March 3th and 10th. Last season, as the champion of the second-tier league, they went to the second-tier domestic league. The goal of the Beijiang Volcano Mingquan team in the preparation period It is relegation. As for the possibility of promotion, even the most optimistic people will not consider it.

This season, the Tianchao Football Association has made certain changes to the team's registration and playing player policies. The Tianchao League is mainly for the use of U23s, while the Tianjia League is for foreign players.The latter's new regulations are: the previous foreign aid policy that allowed three players to register for three players will be changed to register three players for two players this year.This has caused great changes in the use of foreign aid by the teams of Tianjia.

Everyone knows that the level of domestic football is very far from the world's top.Although SIPG, Quanjian, Evergrande, and Yifang have been waving checks to introduce world-renowned stars such as Oscar, Hulk, Carrasco, and Pato in the past few years, from the continued slump of the national team In terms of performance, in fact, the development of Tianchao football is far from being as glamorous as shown in the league.And even for the rich and powerful clubs, except for Evergrande, the performance of the other clubs in the AFC Champions League also proved that the Tianchao League is not as good as the Chinese people imagined.

As for the next level of the Tianjia League, the gap between the Tianchao and the Tianchao is a world of difference. Not to mention anything else, just looking at the investment data in the transfer market in the past three seasons, the difference between the two leagues There is a gap of almost five or six times.According to various data provided by authoritative media such as "Transfer Market", the sum of the value of all the players of the two is also seven or eight times different, and the gap in the total assets of the clubs is even greater. However, the overall level of the Tianjia League Much lower than the second-level football leagues including other Asian countries.

The low level of players means that they are more dependent on foreign aid. When the three foreign aid system was implemented before, Tianjia teams generally used a foreign aid configuration of one backcourt and two frontcourts. Both offensive and defensive ends are foreigners. Acting as the core, it's just that some of them pay more attention to the former.This method is also the most common in the Tianchao, which directly led to the failure to cultivate a good striker at the intercontinental level like Hao Dong, an excellent defensive core like Fan Zhiyi, and even players at the level of Li Jinyu and Li Weifeng. Long time no see.

This situation is mentioned here not to criticize the eagerness for quick success and instant benefits of various clubs, but to show how the change of the Football Association's policy will affect the First Division teams. The ranking of the head coaches caused some troubles, which more or less interfered with the progress of the teams in the Tianjia League this year to introduce foreign aid.

Since the Beijiang Volcano Mingquan team won the second-tier league championship at the end of last year, they have started preparations for the introduction of foreign aid in advance (Tianyi does not allow the use of foreign aid, so there is no such thing as dealing with original foreign players).But at that time, the club's financial situation was not ideal. Not to mention that they couldn't pay a penny for the transfer fee, they couldn't even pay a slightly higher salary, so the club's managers set their goals on those who could join for free. On those free agents.

But there is an old saying, "Cheap, no good." Although it is a bit absolute, it is still in line with objective facts in most cases.After more than two months of investigation, general manager Liu Pengfei and related staff failed to find an excellent foreign aid that meets the requirements of head coach Duan Xin.In desperation, two weeks before the registration deadline, a trial training camp was organized, bringing together more than a dozen foreign players who had not been able to find a new club and had been living in all levels of Chinese leagues for the final screening. .

In the end, Brazilian midfielder Victor Bolt, Kenyan winger Masika who played for Beijing Renhe last season, and Senegalese center Babacar Gueyer who played for Western Tianshan Club became the new aids that Director Duan finalized.However, when the club was about to start negotiations with these three people, Li Mudi decided to become one of the shareholders of his hometown team (although he used his cousin's name, but everyone knew what was going on), and immediately Coach Ling and his agent stated that they could find stronger foreign aid from Europe, which directly made the three foreigners who finally had the opportunity to sign the contract abandoned.

And Guines deserves to be the top agent in European football. In less than three days, he teamed up with the sports agency behind Kaka and sent three outstanding players to the Volcanic Springs team. .

Diego Capel, a short winger born in Spain in 1988, came out of the Seville youth training camp. In addition to his home team, he also played for European teams such as Portuguese sports, Genoa and Anderlecht, and played in 20 He was selected for the Spanish national team when he was only 300 years old. Although he has only played twice, he can be regarded as a once brilliant young talent.Although he is often considered by the outside world to be the representative of Shang Zhongyong, and his youthful speed has disappeared with age and injuries, but his personal dribbling skills and more than [-] professional games have created him. With rich experience, Capel is still enough to play the core of the striker in the Tianjia League team.

After the contract with Anderlecht expired last summer, he has been unemployed, which may lead to a lack of current competitive status, but it also reduces his requirements for remuneration, 30 euros Annual salary plus living allowance can be done.

The second foreign aid's reputation in China is not obvious. The Portuguese midfielder Joshua was born in 1990.This gentleman made his debut from the Porto youth training camp and has represented the national team three times. He belongs to the kind of player whose strength is far greater than his fame.His passing ability is quite outstanding, he was favored by Director Duan, and he got the opportunity to play in the Far East.Joshua, who also does not have a club contract, does not have high requirements for remuneration, and he can be regarded as a model of high quality and low price in the Tianjia League.

As for the last one, it is a real big name, or a star who had a certain status in world football in the past.Antonio Nocerino, a veteran midfielder born in 1985, has played for Juventus, AC Milan and other world giants. He also wore the blue jersey of the Italian national team for 15 games. He was regarded as a central midfielder in his heyday An outstanding player who can rank among the top 500 in the world in terms of position.With nearly [-] professional game experience, even at the end of his playing career, he is enough to provoke the midfielder of a Tianjia team.

Nocerino officially became a free agent after his contract with Orlando City in the United States expired at the beginning of this year.Originally hoping to return to his hometown of Italy to find a team for retirement, he accidentally suffered a thigh muscle injury and did not recover until early February, missing the winter transfer window.If you want not to waste this half a year, you can only turn your attention outside the European continent.

When Nocerino was about to go overseas to play football through his agency, his teammate Kaka in the United States called and suggested that he go to China to try a football style completely different from that of European and American countries.Since Nocerino had also played for Turin before, he was old acquaintances with Valentino Cairo and Castellazzi and other club veterans. After some detailed communication, he finally agreed to go to Asia to end his career.In order to sign this veteran midfielder who still has strength, the Turin coach privately subsidized 200 million soft girls from the Volcanic Spring Club to pay Nocerino's salary.

In this way, three powerful foreign players officially became a member of the Tianjia newly promoted team on February 2, making the club one of the hot spots of domestic media news reports in those two days.

However, since these players are not in the state to participate in the official game in a short period of time, either because they have been out of battle for a long time or have just recovered from injuries, and they have to run in tactically with completely unfamiliar teammates, the effect of rashly playing the game is definitely not good. It would be too ideal, so Director Duan, who has not suffered too much pressure on his performance this year, decided to play with an all-local lineup in the first two rounds. This plan has also been approved by the club's top management.

However, the reality gave this Tianjia league newcomer a resounding slap in the face. On March 3, Beijiang Volcano Mingquan was a guest in the special zone to challenge Kaisa, the sixth special zone in the league last year. As a result, they scored a goal in the opening 11 minutes Under the circumstances, the opponent reversed and won 7-2.In the second half, Volcanic Spring's midfielder Cao Kang also wasted a valuable penalty kick, making the team's first sub-league points slip away.

A week later, the team lost again in Beijing to the Beijing North Control Team led by Gao Hongbo. Although the score was only 2-0, the gap on the field was huge.

After two rounds, the Beijiang Volcano Mingquan team lost both games and only ranked third from the bottom of the standings with a slightly more goal difference. It is a full relegation favorite.Although the domestic media will naturally not pay too much attention to the poor performance of this newly promoted horse, but the provincial leaders and some people in the sports circle will inevitably be disappointed by this result, and at the same time, it will also pour a blow to the originally active fan group. A basin of cold water.After seeing the situation getting worse and worse, the club just held a high-level meeting immediately after returning to Ice City this Sunday.Although there is no requirement for the team to get a good ranking this season, relegation is absolutely not allowed. Guidance Duan, who was originally very relaxed, also feels a lot of pressure now.

Li Mudi returned to his hometown this time, in addition to meeting his relatives and friends here, he also came to decompress the team.He is full of confidence in relegation. After all, the overall level of Tianjia is there. Except for a few teams such as Beijing Beijing Enterprises and Jiangcheng Zall, which are obviously superior in strength, there are also many fish belly. With Quan's current strength, it is not too difficult to get a mid-range ranking.The coaches and players must not be burdened with heavy psychological burdens. Eagerness for quick success is one of the biggest reasons why Chinese football has not developed for decades. Your own club should not step into the same river again.
