Chapter 43 High-level undercurrent surges again

Barcelona returned home with an away draw in the league. At first, no one paid much attention to it. The league is a long-running competition, and you have to laugh until the end. But in the game that ended later, Real Madrid defeated Santander 1:0 at home.

Athletic, this result makes every Barcelona person a little depressed.

With this victory, Real Madrid temporarily overtook Barcelona and ranked first in the league standings after 11 rounds.

In Real Madrid's 1:0 match, there was no problem with Higuain's goal. Taking advantage of the error in the return pass between the Santander goalkeeper and the defender, the butcher De Jong stole the pass and Higuain scored the header easily. But in the second half, Santander scored the goal easily.

Tander Luis Garcia scored in the middle and scored Casillas' goal, but was called offside by the referee, which was an obvious misjudgment.

The pro-Barcelona media collectively turned on the firepower of ridicule. They ridiculed that Real Madrid could only overtake Barcelona with a stolen victory. The pro-Real Madrid media were not to be outdone. They dug up many old accounts to show how much advantage Barcelona had taken because of the penalty. They were all salivating for a while.

It was a busy day.

In an instant, the war of words intensified, and the media from both sides began to attack each other from all angles. This was not done out of idleness, but because the first El Clasico of the season was coming soon, and building momentum in advance was not only a way of cheering, but also a tacit understanding.

Hype.

After playing Athletic Bilbao, Barcelona will face two heavyweight games at home at Camp Nou in the next week. Three days later, there will be a fatal battle between the Champions League and Inter Milan, and then the league will begin.

Leader 'Real Madrid.

These two games will almost determine Barcelona's honor and disgrace in the next three months. Whether to live in flowers and praise or in a storm of spit, the decision lies at the feet of Zhuo Yang.

Although the confrontation with Real Madrid has begun in the media, Inter Milan is the first to bear the brunt. After the four rounds of the Champions League, Inter Milan has 6 points, Kazan and Barcelona have 5 points, and Kiev has 4 points. Who could have imagined the situation in Group F before the game?

It would be so confusing.

Inter Milan must win the first game, otherwise they will go to Kiev in the last round. Thinking about the difficulties they encountered in Kazan before, Barcelona, ​​which is not good at away games, especially in Eastern Europe, simply does not dare to pin all its hopes on the last round of counterattacks.

Kill.

Not counting friendly matches, Barcelona has played 10 away games on three fronts this season, with a record of 4 wins and 6 draws. It is very different from the 8 wins and 1 loss in 9 home games, so it must be better than Inter Milan at home.

The situation for qualifying for the Champions League has become clear.

But can Inter Milan win if they want to? As Puyol said, Barcelona would rather play ten games with Real Madrid than play one with Mourinho's team.

No matter how loud the rhetoric, the game still has to be decided at the feet. Barcelona is seriously preparing for the upcoming Champions League life-and-death battle at its own training base, but there is an undercurrent surging at FC Barcelona again.

"World Sports News" broke the heavy news: Someone stole personal emails between Spain's largest media company Mediapro Group and Spain's Huxon International Co., Ltd., as well as between the Barcelona Club.

Mediapro is a company started in Barcelona. They have the main broadcasting rights for Spanish football matches in the next three seasons. Mediapro also owns Barcelona's league broadcasting rights.

Haxon International Co., Ltd. is also an investment company started in Barcelona, ​​mainly engaged in real estate. The founder of Haxon International is Joan Laporta, and Golda, one of the current vice-chairmen of Barcelona, ​​is also Haxon.

One of the shareholders of Kesen.

According to the report, a senior executive within MediaPro took advantage of the opportunity to repair the office computer of the group chairman, Joao Rolles, and stole a large number of Chairman Rolles' emails, including the company's internal negotiation meeting minutes, television broadcast plans, and his

Correspondence with Laporta, Guardiola and the agents of Barcelona players.

A secret account of the senior executive was discovered. He received approximately 300,000 euros in income through this secret account, and the source of this income pointed to a shell company owned by FC Barcelona, ​​which in turn had connections with four deputy directors.

Russell, one of the chairman, has a very close relationship.

The specific content of those emails was not exposed in the report, and perhaps "World Sports News" did not confirm it, and perhaps there was nothing invisible about the content of the emails, but this kind of theft itself is a standard act of commercial espionage.

The news was leaked from within the MediaPro Group, and they were the ones saying the words, but not all the evidence, including Chairman Rolles, was fully disclosed. Others involved in the incident, Laporta,

Guardiola and Russell have yet to express their opinions.

Zhuoyang was also involved because those emails contained correspondence from his agent Milo Raiola. As the 'Mr. One Hundred Million Dollar' in history, there are many overt and covert accounts behind huge money transactions, including

Rake, commission and signing fee.

After completing the transfer from Milan to Barcelona, ​​Zhuoyang had an extra 8.5 million euros in his account. The fat man said: Money is the cleanest thing in the world, spend it well.

Now no one knows what secrets those stolen emails revealed. Everyone is waiting and watching, and no one dares to say anything easily. But this incident has obviously deepened the relationship between Barcelona’s senior management, especially Laporta and Rosell.

The power struggle between them is very likely to be part of the struggle conspiracy.

Laporta is not too worried about the 'Spygate'. In his impression, the emails with Rolles did not involve anything detrimental to him. Otherwise, Russell would have been exposed long ago, and he would have waited for Rolles to take the lead.

Getting mad?

Laporta's recent worry is that the long-planned chest advertisement is not going well.

In the past, the membership-based La Liga did not have advertisements on the chests of their jerseys, but now, not to mention the wealthy clubs, every team has advertisements printed on their chests. Barcelona is the only one in the world that has remained "pure" so far.

No one can pretend to be innocent. Laporta has long wanted to develop the commercial value of the piece. Since taking office in 2003, he has been constantly testing the tone of Barcelona members, in order to gradually make everyone accept the tackiness on his chest.

', Laporta printed 'unicef' on the front of his jersey in 2005.

unicef ​​is the United Nations Children's Charity Foundation of which Zhuo Yang is the international goodwill ambassador. This kind of chest advertisement is completely public welfare, and its style is very high. It is the only one in the world of football.

Over the past few years, Barcelona members have become accustomed to having things on the front of their originally bare jerseys. In fact, it is just hypocritical. The small Nike check mark has been on the right chest of the jersey for several years, and no one has had a disembowelment in protest.

In the member survey, everyone finally stopped opposing the advertisement on the chest of the jersey. The support rate exceeded those who opposed it. After all, it can bring a lot of revenue to the club. Laporta took the opportunity to start this investment. When the chest advertisement

If the trip goes smoothly, Laporta also plans to sell the naming rights of Camp Nou in the future.

But the grand plan has just begun, and things suddenly change for the worse.

The several Chinese trademarks that are the main targets have been in good terms, and Qatar United Airlines, which Laporta used as a spare tire, has also been caught with a fishhook. But recently, for some reason, Chinese businesses have stopped trying to undermine each other.

Instead, they put forward more demands, which were very unreasonable or even excessive, and the negotiations clearly felt like they were going backwards. Qatar also became lukewarm, and seemed to want to withdraw.

If you don’t get it right, it will turn yellow!

Laporta had a vague feeling that there was a dark hand behind this incident, and that the Spanish government was using its national influence to suppress him. It all stemmed from his idea of ​​a "full-name government" in Catalonia.
