Chapter 1105 The third condition
Manchester United's last warm-up match in the United States was played on the same day as China's second qualifying match, but the Chinese team's game was an hour earlier than Manchester United's game.
After the Chinese team coach was basically revealed, the Chinese team players did not make any trouble. They easily defeated Laos 6:1 and entered the top 20 in the Asian region of the World Cup qualifiers with a total score of 13:3.
Asia has 4.5 World Cup qualifiers, and the top 20 games will be held in a month. At this moment, the new head coach of the Chinese team has not yet officially signed, and their ace killer Gao Xiaodong has never participated in a national training.
There is no suspense in the game between Manchester United and the Professional Major League Stars. Even though Manchester United did not do their best, the Professional Major League Stars were beaten to pieces and finally lost 0:4.
The day after the game, Manchester United returned from the United States to prepare for the last warm-up match with Barcelona.
As soon as Gao Xiaodong arrived home, he received a call from the Football Association Chairman Wei Ge. Wei Ge told Gao Xiaodong that he had communicated with Yida Group. After his repeated efforts, Yida Group decided to give Xinglong Brokerage Company a transfer compensation of 10 million euros.
Gao Xiaodong was very angry. At that time, he offered 30 million yuan and just said it casually. He didn't want to transfer it to Yida Group at all. Unexpectedly, Yida Group was unwilling to pay even the money. Ten million euros were just a little more than the money Gao Xiaodong and Chen Qiang invested, and they were simply begging for food.
Gao Xiaodong told Wei Ge that the compensation of 30 million is not enough now, and another 10 million is needed. If Yida Group does not agree, there is no need to talk about it.
Wei Ge knew that Gao Xiaodong was angry. With Gao Xiaodong and Yida Group's attitude, they could not reach any agreement. Now time is tight, and it is only one month before the top 20 of the World Cup qualifiers. The position of the national team head coach cannot be delayed. No matter who they sign, they must sign the contract immediately.
Wei Ge decided to put pressure on Gao Xiaodong, "Xiaodong, you can't be so willful. Who should the ownership of the Star of Hope belong to? Whether or not it should be transferred is not your final decision, nor is it me. This may need to be proved by law."
The Hope Star is a confusing matter. As the saying goes, the people do not fight with officials. If the Football Association resorts to the law, the final result will never be beneficial to Xinglong Brokerage Company.
Gao Xiaodong was not afraid of Wei Ge's threat. He told Wei Ge coldly that if the Football Association wants to take back the ownership of these players of the Hope Star, it can be negotiated that Xinglong Agency can even ask for less compensation, but he cannot accept the Football Association's decision to transfer the ownership of these players to Yida Group. This is a humiliation to Xinglong Agency and him. If the Football Association really does this, he will refuse to play for the national team.
Wei Ge didn't expect Gao Xiaodong would really refuse to play for the national team because of this. He was so angry that he stomped his feet and said, "Xiaodong, "National affairs are not a joke. Now fans across the country know that they can play for the top 20 games for the national football team. How can you stop doing it if you don't do it!"
Gao Xiaodong said lightly: "Chairman Wei, when I returned to the national team, I gave you two conditions. Another one has not yet been given yet. Let's use this as a condition now."
"How can this work?" Wei Ge was stunned. He didn't expect Gao Xiaodong to use that condition here.
Gao Xiaodong said: "Why can't you? You can give the Star of Hope to Yida Group, which has nothing to do with Star of Hope, why can't you give it to Xinglong Brokerage Company, which saved Star of Hope?"
Wei Ge had nothing to say. He had to admit that what Gao Xiaodong said was reasonable, and the Football Association's approach was indeed a bit unfair.
Obviously, Gao Xiaodong's work is no longer possible, but the national team cannot be without Gao Xiaodong. Wei Ge can only find a way to make Yida Group give up the Star of Hope, and even prepare for Yida Group not to pay the annual salary for Kamacho.
"Okay, Xiaodong, this is the third condition I promised you. Hope Star will not be transferred to Yida Group."
Wei Ge ended the call with Gao Xiaodong and called Xue Qing, the manager of Yida Group, again.
"Manager Xue, I'm sorry to tell you that Xinglong Brokerage Company refuses to transfer Hope Star to Yida Group, even if you pay 30 million euros."
Xue Qing said angrily: "What, just let them refuse? The Star of Hope does not belong to them."
Wei Ge said: "Xinglong Brokerage Company has signed a contract with the players. Judging from the current situation, it is difficult for the Football Association to obtain ownership. Even if it is put into law, it will definitely be a protracted lawsuit. We don't have time to fight this lawsuit with Xinglong Brokerage Company because it is only one month away from the top 20 games. We need a head coach and Gao Xiaodong."
Xue Qing threatened: "Chairman Wei, if the Star of Hope cannot be transferred to us, I cannot guarantee that President Lin will still be willing to pay the annual salary for Kamacho."
Wei Ge was threatened twice in a row in a row. He was also angry and said coldly: "If you don't pay, don't pay. You can't afford Camacho. We can invite a less-than-a-kind coach, or even find another local coach."
Xue Qing didn't expect that this killer move would not work. She was stunned for a moment, not sure whether to be tougher or compromise. After a little thought, Xue Qing felt that this matter was serious, so she would leave it to the boss to make this decision.
Xue Qing said coldly: "Okay, Chairman Wei, I will tell Mr. Lin what you said, hoping that Mr. Lin will be generous and will continue to support the annual salary of the foreign coach for the Football Association."
Wei Ge made up his mind to stand on Gao Xiaodong's side, but his mentality relaxed. He smiled and said to Xue Qing: "Tell me to Mr. Lin, even if Mr. Lin is unwilling to support the coach's salary for the Football Association this time, our Football Association and fans across the country are grateful to Lin for the support of China Football Team."
Xue Qing said: "Okay, I will tell Mr. Lin your words intact."
Xue Qing hung up the phone, stood at the desk to calm down, and then called Lin Jian, the boss of Yida Group.
"Mr. Lin, Chairman Wei said that Xinglong Brokerage Company did not agree to transfer the Star of Hope to us. I saw that he just knew that Gao Xiaodong was the boss of Xinglong Brokerage Company. He was scared and deliberately pleased Gao Xiaodong."
The other end of the phone was silent for about half a minute, and then Xue Qing heard Lin Jian say, "Manager Xue, Xinglong's agency refuses to transfer it, it's all a trivial matter. Tell Chairman Wei that Yida Group is not helping the Football Association for those players of the Hope Star. We are for Chinese Football, and we will pay as much as possible for Kamacho's annual salary."
When Xue Qing heard this, she hurriedly said, "Mr. Lin, the Football Association thinks that our Yida Group is easy to bully. Why are you still..."
Lin Jian said: "Hope Star is a small thing, what we do is a big thing. Manager Xue, just do what I said."
Lin Jian's voice was gentle and firm, giving people a pressure that could not be disobeyed. Xue Qing did not dare to say more, so she had to say, "Yes, I will pass on your meaning to Chairman Wei."
