Chapter 705 Meeting at the World Cup

While Gao Xiaodong was on vacation at home, the world-renowned 19th World Cup football game kicked off in South Africa.

This is the first time that the World Cup football match was held in Africa. In the previous 18 World Cups, except for one in Asia, the other 17 were held in Europe and the Americas, among which Europe and South America each won 9 championships, which was evenly matched.

Although European and South American teams each won 9 World Cup championships, the championships won by Europe were all completed in their own homeland. South American teams not only won once in Europe, but also won the only World Cup held outside Europe and the United States.

The World Cup held in South Africa is a battle of justice for Europe. They need to prove to the world that Europe is the center of world football, even in the World Cup.

This is a football feast, a stage for star performances, a place for major clubs to search for geniuses, and a place for football stars, celebrities, brokers, beauties, and rich people to communicate, communicate, trade and communicate with each other.

Gao Xiaodong did not appear at the opening ceremony of the World Cup, but his agent Mendes came to South Africa three days in advance. Of course, the purpose of this agent is not entirely to watch the football. For him, watching the football is just a trick. His real purpose is to find a good partner for his players before the summer transfer window arrives.

Sitting with Mendes is Porto’s old chairman Da Costa and Real Madrid coach Mourinho. These are the three giants when Porto dominated Europe and the biggest contributor to the opening of Porto’s black store all over the world.

"Jose, you want the second Gao Xiaodong, Porto does not have it, there is only one Gao Xiaodong, and it's too much to sell it for 50 million."

Dacosta, the owner of the black shop, thinks that Gao Xiaodong's performance this season is still very regretful, but what he regrets is that he did not leave 20% of the ownership of Porto, so that Gao Xiaodong is growing rapidly now, but he can't get a share of the pie.

Mourinho and Da Costa have been working with him for many years, and I don’t know what Da Costa is thinking, saying: “Hao’s growth is really amazing. I thought it was too risky to buy him for 50 million yuan. I didn’t expect that it has started at 80 million euros now.”

Mendes sighed: "I also regret not keeping some of Gao Xiaodong's portrait rights at that time. Inter Milan's commercial development was very poor. If you go to Real Madrid, the income from portrait rights alone would be able to keep up with his annual salary."

Mourinho said depressedly: "Real Madrid platform is higher than Inter Milan, and the annual salary is not less than Inter Milan, and the business income is more. I am familiar with him and I don't understand why Gao Xiaodong is still hesitating."

Dacosta seemed to know Gao Xiaodong better. The old pervert pushed his glasses and said slowly: "Jose, I don't think the problem lies in this."

Mourinho was staring at the opening ceremony of the stadium, and then suddenly turned around and asked, "Chairman, what's the problem?"

Dacosta said: "The problem lies with Ronaldo and Kaka. Didn't you pay attention? This kid has to get a captain in any team."

Mourinho said disdainfully: "This is the power worship consciousness of the Eastern people."

Dacosta shook his head and said, "Although there is a little bit, I think it's more that Gao Xiaodong is unwilling to be inferior to others. His current strength is not as good as the superman, and his fame is barely a top-notch star. In Real Madrid, Kaka and Ronaldo are both Golden Ball Award winners. Gao Xiaodong will never climb to the top of them no matter what. This position is at most the third child. How could he give up Inter Milan's boss and be willing to be the third child in Real Madrid."

Mendes also shook his head and said, "I agree with Chairman Dacosta's statement, this is the most likely."

Although Mourinho had a little idea, he was immediately abandoned because he believed that Gao Xiaodong was only 20 years old and had not won any world-class honors. How could he want to be in a position with Ronaldo?

However, what Dacosta said makes sense. This old fox is even buried under the head, so it is indeed more accurate to look at people.

Mourinho said helplessly: "At this stage, I have no possibility of letting Gao Xiaodong be the core of Real Madrid. Inter Milan are all a group of old people who are about to retire. Real Madrid are the best players in the world. Even if I say it, no one will listen."

Dacosta said: "Why must Gao Xiaodong be necessary? Obviously Inter Milan won't sell it, and even if it is sold, it won't sell it to Real Madrid. Besides, the penalty of 80 million is too amazing. If you really buy it, it's not much cheaper than Ronaldo, but Ronaldo is the winner of the Golden Globes, and Gao Xiaodong is just a newcomer."

Mourinho said: "Chairman, Gao Xiaodong is irreplaceable."

Dacosta said: "As for Gao Xiaodong's chasers, Manchester City is the richest, Chelsea's team is the best to run in, Inter Milan is the most familiar, Real Madrid has the highest platform, the most famous, and it is more beneficial in all aspects, but I'm afraid that the one Gao Xiaodong is the least willing to come to is Real Madrid unless you and Mendes force him to go to Real Madrid."

Mendes sighed: "Don't the chairman know yet? Last season, Gao Xiaodong planned to go to Manchester United, but I tried to persuade him. If I go against his wishes again this time, I am worried that Gao Xiaodong will have more opinions on me."

Dacosta said: "Yes, this kid is very sensible and should not go against his wishes again and again unless you can convince him. However, Jose, although Porto does not have the second Gao Xiaodong, Falcao, Hulk, and J. Ronaldo are all very good. If you miss it, don't regret it."

Mendes also highly recommends his players, "Jose, if you want to play 433, Falcao is more suitable for Real Madrid than Higuain, Di Maria and Hulk can play on the wing."

Mourinho was unmoved and said, "At present, he is the first choice. Everyone else is the alternative."

Mendes said: "Okay, take some time to go to China, or call Gao Xiaodong to South Africa to watch the ball. I'll have a good talk with him, but you must be prepared to activate the liquidated damages."

Mendes just finished speaking, his cell phone rang. Mendes looked at the number displayed and walked out of the box. After answering the phone, Mendes said, "Jose, Chairman, you guys are chatting first. A friend asked me to sit down."

"Go and go."

Mendes is now the busiest agent and has to answer at least a few hundred calls every day, and Mourinho and Da Costa don't care.

Mendes went out, tidied up the collar, turned around and walked towards a private room not far away.

When he pushed the door open, an old man who was sitting in the private room watching the opening ceremony stood up and said, "Mr. Mendes, it's been a long time since I saw you. He looks good and looks like he's done a lot of business."

Mendes smiled, "Sir Alex, you are really good at joking. The transfer window has not opened yet, so there is no business to do, otherwise you wouldn't have the time to watch the World Cup."

The man who met Mendes was Manchester United coach Ferguson. After letting Mendes sit down, after hearing Mendes say this, Ferguson smiled and said: "Mr. Mendes, who doesn't know that you are now covering up the sky and almost dominates the transfer of half of European football."

Mendes smiled and said, "It's too much. If the Lord said this, I will become a public enemy."

Ferguson smiled and said, "Don't say whether you become a public enemy or not, you offended me a lot last season."

Mendes said in discomfortably: "How could I offend the Lord? Where did you start?"

Ferguson sneered: "Stop pretending to be confused. It's Gao Xiaodong's business. Last season, Gao Xiaodong had already agreed to come to Manchester United, but you and Mourinho took Inter Milan to go."

Mendes repeatedly called for wrongfulness, "Sir, that's fair competition, I don't favor anyone."

Ferguson said with a cold face: "Last season has passed, so I won't talk about it. Jorge (Mendes), I will buy Gao Xiaodong this time, and you can't interfere with it this time. Otherwise, if I stay at Manchester United for one day, you Mendes won't want to send a player to Manchester United."
