The 2010 World Cup in South Africa was in full swing. For a good contract and a better team, the stars of major clubs were showing their talents to the fullest. At this time, the poaching behavior of major clubs became more and more frequent.

Most of the popular stars compete in the World Cup, and their agents and clubs are worried about affecting their status. Whether they plan to transfer or raise their salary, they are all in private. Only Gao Xiaodong has become the target of the major giants.

In fact, Inter Milan has publicly stated many times that Gao Xiaodong is not a seller, but it is useless because Gao Xiaodong's value has exceeded his liquidated damages. Clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester City are all preparing to persuade Gao Xiaodong to directly activate the liquidated damages to buy people.

Spanish media reported that Real Madrid was the first to bid for Inter Milan.

Perhaps because of Mourinho, Florentino was worried about annoying Moratti, so he did not directly announce the activation of the liquidated damages. Instead, he adopted a method of politeness and then military service, first quoting 75 million euros to Inter Milan to see Moratti's reaction. If Moratti refused, of course, this is certain. At that time, he would directly bypass Inter Milan and Gao Xiaodong.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are mortal enemies for a century. Real Madrid takes action, Barcelona will never dare to stand idly by. With Gao Xiaodong's strength, if Real Madrid and Ronaldo are partnered with, and Mourinho is in charge of command, it will be difficult for Barcelona to suppress Real Madrid.

Then, the Daily Sports Daily reported that Barcelona also offered Gao Xiaodong to Inter Milan, with the transfer fee being no more or less, which was exactly 79.99 million euros.

Morati did not compromise at all, rejected Real Madrid and Barcelona's offer twice in a row, and said that even if a team activates the liquidated damages, Inter Milan will not give up on Gao Xiaodong.

Chairman Moratti's attitude could not stop the hoe raised by the rich. Manchester City eO Cook directly bypassed Inter Milan and went to China to find Gao Xiaodong. According to insiders, Manchester City provided Gao Xiaodong with a huge contract of 17 million euros annual salary, including 20 million euros signing fees.

If Manchester City digs Rooney with one hand and Gao Xiaodong with the other, if both of them are poached by Manchester City, with Manchester City's current foundation, it is definitely not impossible for Manchester City to ride on Manchester United's head in reverse.

The senior executives and boss of Manchester United club were discussing the feasibility of introducing Gao Xiaodong, but after seeing Manchester City's offer Gao Xiaodong, they couldn't calm down. Before Mendes could arrange for him to have an interview with Gao Xiaodong, Ferguson flew to China and joined the ranks of competing for Gao Xiaodong.

Four Seasons Hotel in the Imperial Capital

This was the first time Ferguson and Gao Xiaodong met alone a year later. After meeting, both of them couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

"Hello, Xiao...Dong...Melon."

Ferguson greeted Gao Xiaodong in a stiff and inaccurate Chinese. This was what he learned in private after he decided to buy Gao Xiaodong.

Seeing a 69-year-old man learning to say hello to him in Chinese, Gao Xiaodong was both surprised and moved, and a little funny. He also greeted Ferguson in even worse Chinese, "Harrow, Alex." Gao Xiaodong wanted to say jazz, but unfortunately he forgot the word, so he had to call it by his name.

Xiao Le, who was standing aside as a translator, looked funny and didn't say anything. He just saw how the two of them continued to communicate.

Of course, Ferguson learned more than this sentence, but Chinese was too difficult for him. After meeting Gao Xiaodong, he forgot all the remaining sentences and had to say in English: "Gao, come to Manchester United, I have been waiting for you."

Xiao Le smiled and translated this sentence to Gao Xiaodong.

Gao Xiaodong sighed: "Thank you for your respect for me so much. Although Mourinho went to Real Madrid, Chairman Morati was very nice to me. I really couldn't bear to leave."

Ferguson said excitedly: "Gao, a genius like you will be treated well everywhere. Is President Dacosta not good to you? But you still come to Inter Milan. You are still young and need to win more honors. From an objective perspective, Inter Milan is no longer suitable for you. Even if you go to Real Madrid, Barcelona is better than staying in Inter Milan. Your continued stay in Inter Milan will only ruin you."

Gao Xiaodong smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, can you really be considered objective?"

Ferguson said seriously: "Of course, don't think I'm an alarmist, I know Moratti and Inter Milan better than you."

Gao Xiaodong listened attentively. Even if he had been in professional football for fifty years, even if he was talking nonsense, he would definitely make some sense.

Ferguson continued: "I have to say that Morati is a good person, a person who truly loves football, and has an admirable will, but he is by no means a good boss or manager.

Otherwise, it would never be possible to spend more than one billion yuan until 10 years later, and win the Champions League championship after 15 years. After 15 years of hard work and success, you can imagine how relaxed his mentality will be. I can guarantee that if you don’t leave, Inter Milan will never have a heavyweight transfer in this year’s transfer market, at most it is to buy a few new players.

Similarly, Inter Milan played so well this year, it is definitely not that you are better than Europe's strength, but that you are too united and too desperate, a group of old players who are over 30 years old, do you know how eager they are for the first Champions League championship in their lives?

Now they have won four consecutive league championships, Italy's first triple-winning champion. Do you think they still have fighting spirit? Will they still fight desperately on the court?

Gao, you are not a god, and Benitez is not a god. You two cannot lead Inter Milan. I dare say that you can win the league championship this season and reach the Champions League semi-finals is a huge success."

Gao Xiaodong remained silent. He actually knew what Ferguson said and thought about it, but he did not believe that the triple-winning champion of last season would not have been reduced even if Mourinho was not so strong, his strength would not decline anyway.

Ferguson continued: "I know you want to stay in Inter Milan to help Morati, but I think you will really help Morati only if you leave. If you stay, Morati will definitely not make major adjustments to the existing lineup. But if you leave, Inter Milan loses its core and gets 80 million euros in transfer funds, which will instead prompt Chairman Morati to change the team."

Gao Xiaodong had been listening before, and suddenly laughed: "Sir, it seems that Manchester United also won the Champions League three years ago, and the league championship was poor. You have not lost your fighting spirit and ambition. Why did Chairman Moratti lose his ambition?"

Ferguson clenched his fists and said, "This is completely different. Inter Milan is Chairman Moratti's toy. Now he has achieved his goal and is tired of playing. Manchester United is Glazer's money-making tool. As a businessman, he will never think that he makes less money. Only when Manchester United is stronger can he make more money. As for me, although I am 69 years old, my oath to pull Liverpool off the throne has not been fully realized. So I hope you come to Manchester United to help me so that I can retire with peace of mind."

Gao Xiaodong said in confusion: "Liverpool hasn't won the championship for many years. Are you still worthy of fulfilling your oath?"

Ferguson said proudly: "Now Manchester United's league champion has just tied with Liverpool. The Champions League is two fewer than Liverpool. How can this be called fulfilling the oath? I must make Liverpool convinced and cannot find any excuses."

Gao Xiaodong sighed, "Sir, you are such a headache-inducing opponent."

Ferguson said: "If you come to Manchester United, you will find that I am still a very kind old man."

Gao Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, "I heard that Manchester United's finances are very bad."

Ferguson said: "Yes, this cannot be hidden from others. Glazer borrowed money to buy Manchester United. However, in the past few years, his debt has been paid back half of it. Although Manchester United fans hate him very much, I like such a boss very much because he completely trusts me and never interferes in team affairs. As long as I want to buy anyone, he will support him. Even if he borrows money, this is something that Chairman Morati can't do."

Gao Xiaodong said: "Okay, sir, I need to think about it."

Ferguson said: "High, no need to consider. Manchester United has everything you need, a strong lineup, a stable play, a coach's trust, the boss's position, and a top-level annual salary. What else do you need?"

Gao Xiaodong said calmly: "Sir, I have to say that you have touched me, but I can't promise you yet. You need to wait any longer. I can't make a decision on impulse."

Ferguson understood the principle that hasteness would not be achieved. He was able to persuade Gao Xiaodong, so he achieved his initial goal and said, "Okay, think about it carefully, I will come to see you later."
