Chapter 1025 The Highlight

With Kaka's arrival in China, and on the second day, Beijing Guoan officially announced that it would bring in the world superstar Kaka from Orlando City, USA. This news immediately swept the country in a short period of time and caused a huge response.

Countless fans were cheering for Kakaden 6 and were amazed by Jingcheng Guoen's consecutive big moves.

Everyone also deeply felt that Jingcheng Guoen was no longer just a boaster like before.

Today’s Beijing Guoen not only knows how to brag, but more importantly, they can deliver on their promises. Is that still bragging?

More importantly, when everyone realized that Jingcheng Guoen was indeed going to fulfill his promise, they began to take it seriously and began to study every word Jingcheng Guoen had said before.

For example, Fang Wei said that except for Terry, two of the remaining three foreign players have won the highest honor for professional players.

Kaka has won the World Footballer of the Year award, which means he is one of them. What about the other one?

In fact, this is not difficult to guess, because in the past few years, there have been only two or three players who have won the International Golden Ball Award, the highest honor for professional players.

There is no need to count on Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic. They are the core players of their teams and are in their prime. How could they give up their status and influence in European football and come to China?

Going back further, who else is there?

Kaka, what about before Kaka?

Those who have retired have already retired, and there don’t seem to be many who have not retired.

So, some people speculated that it was most likely Ronaldinho.

But everyone knows that this player's condition has declined terribly. How could Beijing Guoan sign him?

So, fans and reporters analyzed it over and over again, but still couldn't find an answer.

But discussing Beijing Guoan's signings has become a hot topic on the internet, with fans even placing bets on it.

At the same time, in southern China, Yangcheng Hengda also felt the threat from the capital in the north.

Jorge Mendes, a famous European agent, also flew to China in a hurry.

"Hello, Mr. Xu!"

At the headquarters of Guangzhou Evergrande Football Club, when Portuguese Jorge Mendes saw Mr. Xu of Guangzhou Evergrande, his eyes lit up immediately, as if he had seen the God of Wealth.

"Hello, Jorge!" Mr. Xu also greeted him with a smile.

Previously, the head coach of Yangcheng Hengda was Lippi, who had close contacts with Italian agents. The targets of recruitment were all hand-picked by Lippi, and there were also many failed cases.

It should be said that the club and the coaching staff are not completely in agreement on this point.

But at that time, Hengda was far from sufficient in terms of personal connections, so it could only entrust the task to the experienced Lippi.

But now, the club has enough confidence. In addition, in the past few years, famous European agents have begun to pay attention to the Chinese market. Especially after Yang Huan played a role in the matchmaking, many big-name agents have come to China.

Jorge Mendes is one of them.

Scolari was the first deal Mendes made with Yangcheng Hengda.

The subsequent introduction of players such as Paulinho, Robinho and Goulart all had the shadow of Mendes, and Jackson Martinez came directly from Mendes' team.

Not only Yangcheng Hengda, but Tianjin Quanjian is also a major client of Mendes.

This is also normal.

Many outsiders who don't know the truth must think that the owners of Chinese teams are competitors or even enemies of each other, but in fact, it is not the case at all.

Although they are opponents on the court, they are partners off the court. They are all planning and trying every means to make their piece of the pie bigger and stronger. Therefore, many times, they share their personal connections and information channels with each other.

In fact, the first person to have connections with international agents such as Mendes, Raiola, and Korabchian was Master Huan.

And the facts have proved that this group of big-name agents with amazing operational capabilities are able to bring enough surprises.

This year's signings are a good example.

Therefore, no one dares to neglect such a person.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two men sat down as host and guest.

"Have you paid attention to the news in our country in recent days?"

Jorge Mendes nodded. The Chinese market is the fastest growing area in his company's business, so he naturally attaches great importance to it. ??? ? Want to see?

"In the past few days, all of you in China have been paying attention to Kaka. Master Huan has made another successful deal."

Mr. Xu nodded and sighed as he listened.

I nodded because what Mendes said was right. The attention and discussion that Kakaden 6 Europe has aroused in China is so overwhelming and unbelievable.

He is the first World Footballer of the Year introduced to China, so naturally he attracted a lot of attention.

It is not clear what Kaka can bring on the competitive level, but on the commercial level, the huge attention that Kaka brings will definitely benefit Beijing Guoan.

Even now, many people in the circle have begun to express surprise, believing that Heineken Beer sponsors Beijing Guoen with a huge amount of 200 million yuan every year because they have already known Master Huan's operation plan in advance, so they are willing to pay this money.

Now that I think about it, the operational capabilities of Young Master Huan and his team are really beyond my reach.

This is also the reason why he sighed.

"Jorge, is there any way to help us bring in a star player who can compete with Kaka?"

Jorge Mendes was stunned after hearing this, but soon laughed again.

He understood the ambition of Hengda President Xu and knew that if Guangzhou Evergrande could follow Beijing Guoan and spend money lavishly at this time, it would be able to avoid being stepped on by Beijing Guoan.

There are many such examples. For example, when Barcelona won the treble, Florentino of Real Madrid brought in three superstars at once to suppress Barcelona's arrogance.

"Mr. Xu, I don't think this is the time to act on impulse." Mendes reminded him lightly.

"I also know John Terry, but we didn't even receive any news before his transfer. I can guarantee that Master Huan contacted the player directly and convinced the player to facilitate the transfer."

"And Kaka, he's playing very well in the MLS and might even return to the European league during the winter break. As far as I know, many teams are interested in him, but he chose China because of Master Huan!"

At this point, Jorge Mendes looked at Mr. Xu and sighed softly.

"I'll say one thing, don't be angry."

Mr. Xu nodded somewhat disappointedly, he vaguely guessed something.

"In this regard, neither you nor I can compare to Master Huan. The connections and network he has built in European football are absolutely astonishing, especially his relationships with those big-name stars."

At this point, Mendes shook his head and smiled, "Let me tell you something. A Chinese team asked me if they could bring in Yaya Toure from Manchester City. He is quite old and doesn't fit in with Manchester City's long-term plan. Can we dig him in?"

"Do you know how I answer?"

Mr. Xu shook his head, he couldn't guess.

"I told him that if he likes Manchester City players, he should look for Master Huan. As long as Master Huan comes forward, let alone Yaya Toure, as long as the players nod, I can even recruit David Silva and Aguero for you!"

"It's the same with Real Madrid, it's the same with Bayern Munich, it's the same with other big clubs in Europe."

Mr. Xu was somewhat dumbfounded.

He knew that Master Huan had great connections and abilities in Europe, but he had never imagined that they would be so great.

"Cristiano Ronaldo wanted to leave Real Madrid, and I campaigned for him for at least two years, but it was useless. But as soon as Master Huan showed up, Florentino agreed!"

"And Messi, everyone in the world knows that there is no way Barcelona would sell Messi. But Master Huan can make Barcelona sell him, not only because he has money, but also because he can talk to Rosell and Bartomeu of Barcelona directly about this matter, and he can also deal with Messi himself!"

At this point, Mendes laughed, "Boss Xu, listen to my advice, don't compete with Young Master Huan for the star player, you really can't win!"

This sounded quite discouraging, but Mr. Xu just let out a sigh, curled his lips, and accepted it helplessly.

He knew Young Master Huan, so he naturally knew who Young Master Huan was.

"Let me tell you this!" Mendes looked at Mr. Xu's expression and laughed again, "John Terry and Kaka are just appetizers. What comes next is the real highlight!"

"What?" Mr. Xu was moved and shocked.

"Jorge, what do you mean by that?"

Mendes laughed. "I mean, although Terry and Kaka are both superstar players and they are in very good shape, they are out of fashion after all. No one can deny that."

"So what you mean is..." Mr. Xu's voice trembled slightly.

Terry and Kaka are just appetizers, so won’t the main event that follows be terrifying?

"I was in Europe a few days ago and received some news. I heard that Master Huan personally participated in the negotiations between two popular superstars, and the deal has basically been reached."

"A popular superstar?" Mr. Xu was stunned.

Nimei, is he really a popular superstar?

Are there any popular superstars willing to come to China for money?

"Absolutely, there's no escape!"

"Who is it?" Mr. Xu also became interested and asked curiously.

Mendes smiled and moved closer, whispering two names near Mr. Xu.

When Mr. Xu heard this, he seemed to have lost all his strength and collapsed instantly.

Fortunately, he wanted to compete with Young Master Huan before, but now, seeing the series of big moves made by Young Master Huan, he can't even catch up with him, let alone compete.

Damn it, comparing yourself to others really makes you angry.

When it comes to money, he is not as good as Master Huan, but when it comes to recruiting superstars, he is also very unambiguous.

But the problem is, in this world, having money is useless. You need resources, connections, relationships and power.

Young Master Yi Huan's ability in this area is unmatched by Mr. Xu, not even Mendes.

At this moment, President Xu really gave up the idea of ​​competing with Jingcheng Guoen.

In his opinion, this was absolutely a stupid thing to do and would only lead to trouble!

"Mr. Xu, you don't have to be sad. Believe me, Master Huan's move will benefit everyone. I can guarantee that in the next few years, European football stars will be more and more likely to accept invitations from China. This will be a great benefit to you all."

Mr. Xu certainly knew this was the case, but the problem was that when Young Master Huan spent a lot of money, introduced superstars, and continuously improved the team's overall strength and competitiveness, they were unable to compete, and could not even keep up. This could easily make people frustrated!

Besides, when they get to the court, what can they use to fight against Jingcheng Guoen?

Of course, due to restrictions on foreign aid, with the current strength of Evergrande, the gap between it and Beijing Guoan is basically not too far, and both sides are not without the ability to fight.

However, in the long run, China may have to adapt to the changing situation where Beijing Guo'en competes for the championship every year.
