When the battle between Porto and Manchester United was at the most intense, Gao Xiaodong met Inter Milan coach Mourinho at the dinner party of his agent Mendes.

The Champions League defeat did not affect the mood of the madman. Mourinho, wearing a black Armani suit, still had a sharp look. He stared at Gao Xiaodong, "Gao, do you believe what I said on TV?"

Mourinho said that he believed that Porto could eliminate Manchester United and even win the championship. Of course, Gao Xiaodong didn't believe this. Mourinho could say anything in a verbal way. When Inter Milan lost to Manchester United, Mourinho also said that Manchester United was very strong and could defeat all opponents and win the five championships.

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "If you come to coach, I definitely believe it, but now it is difficult for us to defeat the strong. Eliminating Atletico Madrid has already taken our efforts to eliminate Atletico Madrid."

Mourinho was unmoved to the flattery of Gao Xiaodong and continued to express his views, "Inter Milan actually has the opportunity to eliminate Manchester United, but we were not lucky and hit two goal posts. In a strong dialogue, one goal post is enough to change the game, but I won't tell you where Manchester United's weakness is?"

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "I don't believe it if you say it. What is the benefit of Porto's defeat of Manchester United for you? It doesn't mean that Coach Ferreira is better than you."

Mendes laughed and said, "Jose, you can't fool Xiaodong."

Mourinho smiled and said, "I didn't fool Gao. Manchester United does have weaknesses, but not only I know, but the whole world knows that the difference between a strong team and a weak team is that a strong team can grasp the opponent's weaknesses, but it's useless to know if a weak team knows."

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "I believe Coach Jose's words."

Mourinho said lightly: "Let Mr. Mendez call you over, because I have something to say to you."

Gao Xiaodong listened quietly.

Mourinho continued: "Our main lineup is flawed, there are too many elderly people, and the only young geniuses are Balotelli and Thornton. They are not able to provide enough vitality and variables for the team. I have told Mr. Moratti that I hope to get you. For you, transferring from Porto to European giants will give you a bigger performance stage, a better growth environment, a better income, and a greater reputation."

Gao Xiaodong is not an easy person to fool, and said, "My transfer fee may be very high, well, higher than last summer."

Gao Xiaodong's words expressed dissatisfaction with Mourinho's behavior of releasing pigeons last summer. Mourinho said he wanted to take him to Inter Milan, but gave up because Porto asked for 30 million euros.

Mourinho said calmly: "I only buy people and see if it's worth the money. Last summer, you were not worth 30 million euros. Now you are worth at least 40 million. For wealthy families, whether to buy people or not is never the main problem."

Gao Xiaodong said: "In addition, I hope I can get all the league and Champions League opportunities, the best."

Mourinho frowned and said, "At most, I guarantee your main position, and it is impossible to guarantee all your chances of playing. I must arrange tactics based on the player's condition and the opponent's situation."

Mendes, who was sitting next to him, also felt a little strange about Gao Xiaodong's request. Some asked for high annual salary, some asked for signing fees, some asked for portrait rights, and some asked for main position. I have never heard of asking for all the opportunities to play. However, today's main conversation between Mourinho and Gao Xiaodong, Mendes does not want to leave Gao Xiaodong with the impression that he hopes Gao Xiaodong will go to Inter Milan.

Gao Xiaodong said: "Since that's the case, then wait until the end of the season before talking about the transfer. Now I don't want to be distracted from the transfer."

Mendes saw the two of them having a break and said, "Then let's talk carefully when the season is over. Today, Jose comes to tell you his ideas, not letting you make a decision now."

Mourinho said: "My thoughts have been finished. Gao, think about it carefully, Mr. Mendez, you talk, I'm going to go back to Italy."

Mendes and Gao Xiaodong saw Mourinho away, who had been in a hurry and hurried away, returned to the room and sat down. Mendes said: "Xiaodong, what do you think of Mourinho's words?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "My opinion has been told to coach Mourinho."

Mendes frowned and said, "Do you already have a team you like?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "No, whoever gives me the best conditions and can meet my conditions, I will go wherever I go."

Mendes sighed and said, "Xiaodong, there are many teams that you like now, and most of them are giant teams, but there are probably not those who can meet your conditions. You know, coaches who can coach giants are capable, famous and unique, and they cannot give you a chance to play under any conditions. This is even more unacceptable than asking for a high annual salary."

Gao Xiaodong said: "No, you can do it, as long as you don't miss the game."

Mendes teased: "Will you not be hurt or tired?"

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "If you are tired, I will take the initiative to apply for a rest."

Mendes shook his head and said, "I hope there will be a coach to meet your weird requirements. Now there is one important thing to tell you."

Gao Xiaodong said in surprise: "What else is there, Mr. Mendes?"

Mendes said: "Well, during this period, there are actually people in Portugal who want to find you to be a commercial endorsement, but I have suppressed them all because they are all small businesses and the prices are not high. Your first endorsement is, I hope to start a little higher. Two days ago, people from Adidas and Nike found me, and they all want to sign you, which one do you like?"

Damn, Nike and Adidas are the bosses of sports goods, and they even came to them. Gao Xiaodong was surprised and happy and said, "Mr. Mendes, I don't like them much, and I don't know them very well. It seems that our Porto is sponsored by Nike."

Mendes said lightly: "Yes, but your personal endorsement has nothing to do with the club. Besides, you won't stay in Porto next season. Now Adidas and Nike are the two largest sports goods companies in the world, with similar strength. Adidas is stronger in the football field and Nike is stronger in the basketball field."

Gao Xiaodong pondered for a moment and said, "Who has the better conditions?"

Mendes said: "There is not much difference. Adidas will give you a sponsorship contract of 4 million euros for five years and Nike will give you a five-year 4.5 million euros."

Gao Xiaodong said: "Of course we will choose 4.5 million."

Mendes said: "But in the football field, Adidas is stronger and has the strongest promotion and packaging capabilities."

Gao Xiaodong said with some worries: "How can I choose this? Why don't I wait? Maybe we'll be cold in the Champions League, and it's probably a little higher at that time."
