   "Very big. Director Xu, there are too few high-level youth competitions in China. Compared with European children of the same age, our players play about 30 fewer high-level competitions each year."

   "Think about it, there is a difference of 30 games in one year, and 300 games in 10 years. Over time, can the gap be not big?"

   At this moment, Director Xu stopped talking at all.

   He has been engaged in youth training for all these years, and he knows nothing better than the situation of youth training in domestic football.

   In a nutshell: Few people work hard, and more people make money.

   "So you want to select players in China and bring them to Europe to train?"

  Remembering the layout that Chen Ran had started a few years ago, Director Xu admired it from the bottom of his heart. This young man can see clearly, see far, take one step and see three steps, make plans and then move. He is a person who does great things.

   "That's right. There are countless youth competitions of all ages in Europe, and our children will not worry about not having high-level competitions after they pass."

   "And I also set up a new 'Galaxy Cup' Youth Football Invitational Tournament in the name of Galaxy Football Group, which is scheduled for the summer vacation every summer."

   "I believe that children who have been continuously honed through high-level, fast-paced, and high-confrontation competitions will definitely have a qualitative leap compared to current domestic players."

   "Then the national football team formed with them as the team will no longer be able to reach the World Cup finals."

   Chen Ran's description made Director Xu's eyes light up.

  The old man has devoted himself to the football career of China all his life. No one wants to see the rise of football in China more than him.

   "I wish I could see that day!"

  Guide Xu sighed, he didn't want to come to a "family sacrifice without forgetting to tell Naiweng" like Lu You did.

   "Haha, Director Xu, you are still very young, you will definitely see that day."

  Chen Ran laughed and counted the time for Director Xu with his fingers crossed.

   "I started the selection process from the year before last, and the selection was all about ten-year-old children. Under the environment like Europe, these children can be the leaders in about ten to fifteen years."

   "At that time, there will be too many national football teams formed with these children as the main body, but it will not be a problem to get a ticket to the World Cup finals in Asia."

   Looking at Chen Ran's confident look, Director Xu hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help pouring a bowl of cold water on him.

   "Xiao Chen, I have no doubts about your vision for selecting players and your ability to train players. But have you ever thought about it, given the situation of our domestic football, you may not necessarily form a team according to your suggestion."

   "You must know that we are still a human society after all. The football circle in particular is a closed environment with intertwined interests. Sometimes, whether you can become a national football player depends on more than the level of competition."

   Looking at Xu Guizhi's sincere appearance, Chen Ran knew that the old man was really thinking of him.

   As a reincarnated person, how could he not be clear about what Director Xu said?

  There are too many flies, mosquitoes and bed bugs in this circle. They are dressed as professionals, lying on the Huaguo football body to **** blood.

  …

   "Guide Xu, I have considered everything you said. At that time, I will first compete for the position of head coach of the national football team. I believe that with my achievements over the years, it should not be a problem to sit in this position."

   "After I become the head coach of the national football team, I will make a big change according to my ideas. As for the various doubts and pressures that may arise at that time, I will use the victory of the game to silence those people."

   "Haha, it seems that you have already considered all these situations clearly. It's the old man that I thought too much."

  Guide Xu looked at Chen Ran with a look of relief, this kid did not disappoint him.

   "Guide Xu, don't support me. Although I think beautifully, I also understand that things cannot develop exactly as I imagined. If there is an unexpected situation, I need you to stand up and support me."

   "Haha, Xiao Chen, you are too modest. Don't worry, if you use the old man, I will never stand by and watch."

   This summer offseason, Chen Ran rarely relaxed.

  After using the Liverpool club to kill the chicken and the monkey, at least in this summer transfer period, no team should dare to contact the players of Crystal Palace Club in private.

  The matter of the International Champions Cup, he has given full responsibility to Stephen.

   As for Crystal Palace's preparations for the new season, Chen Ran also gave Simeone and Southgate a detailed plan and then let it go. Even the International Champions Cup game was planned to be handed over to these two guys.

   After a busy season, he has never been able to spend time with Cheryl. And next season he has to take care of the Portuguese national team, and it is foreseeable that it will only get busier.

   Therefore, Chen Ran plans to take time out this summer to play with Cheryl.

   Just when he was about to leave Shencheng, the fat little Louis suddenly made a call from London.

   "Chen, Real Madrid sent an offer to ask if we are willing to sell Ronaldo, Kaka and Messi."

   "Real Madrid? Is that guy Mourinho doing something wrong again?" Chen Ran's first reaction was to think of Mourinho as an enemy.

   "Well, it doesn't seem to be true this time. I asked someone about it, and it seems that it was the idea of ​​Florentino, the new president of Real Madrid."

"This Florentino has always liked to introduce big-name stars. When he was the president of Real Madrid last time, he bought a bunch of superstars to form the so-called 'galactic battleship'. Zidane's record for the highest transfer fee is created at that time."

   "I estimate that he will be the chairman of Real Madrid for the second time, and he is also planning to play another big game. After all, there is no better operation than the introduction of top superstars."

   "Did they not contact our players or agents privately?" Chen Ran asked worriedly.

  Real Madrid is not an ordinary giant club, after all, "Emperor Dream" is no joke.

   "Haha, that's not true. I specifically asked those private detectives, everything is normal, and those agents have been very quiet recently. Chen, I have to say that your trick of killing chickens and monkeys really works."

   "It's fine if you don't. You reply to Real Madrid. Whether it's Ronaldo, Kaka or Messi, these three players are not for sale by Crystal Palace, and they won't sell them for any amount of money."

  …

"Ok, I see."

"By the way, Luis, I'll give you another task. You go to the Belgian Genk Club to find a Belgian kid named Thibaut Courtois. He is a goalkeeper. He is 17 years old. Bring him back to Crystal Palace and hand him over to Tubo. Hull. Understand?"

   "Er Belgian Genk? Chen, isn't this the club that De Bruyne used to play. The owner of this club is not a fuel-efficient lamp, be careful he opens his mouth like De Bruyne did."

  Thinking of the few failed transfer cases that he handled, the little fat Louis still broods.

   "It's the Genk Club. But don't worry, there shouldn't be a guy like Mark Hughes to disrupt the situation this time. The owner of the Genk Club doesn't have the confidence to charge a high price."

   "Courtois is only a 17-year-old goalkeeper after all. The goalkeeper position is quite special. Generally, no one will pay a high price to buy a young goalkeeper who has not yet been verified."

   "Understood, I will send someone to deal with it. By the way, what price are you going to quote for this Courtois?"

   "It's about 5 million euros, and the upper limit cannot exceed 10 million euros."

"clear."

   Spain, Office of the President of Real Madrid Club.

  Florentino pointed to the reply of Crystal Palace Club on the table, and glanced at Mourinho and Mendes respectively.

   "Crystal Palace Club has rejected our inquiry and made it clear that these three players are not for sale. Whether to continue to increase or just give up, what do you two think?"

  Because of Mourinho's relationship, Mendes has now become a transfer consultant for Real Madrid, so he is here today.

   "Mr. Chairman, pardon me, how much are you willing to pay to bring in these three players from Crystal Palace?"

   Knowing that this is his responsibility, Mendes did not dodge and took the initiative to answer Florentino's question. After all, Real Madrid also paid.

   "Jorge, my expectation is: Cristiano Ronaldo does not exceed 120 million euros, Messi does not exceed 100 million euros, and Kaka does not exceed 80 million euros."

   There were no outsiders present, and Florentino directly reported his hole cards.

   "Mr. Chairman, Manchester City Club offered this price last year, but it was directly rejected by Crystal Palace Club. So, according to my judgment, if it was just this offer, we might get the same result this time."

   After listening to Mendez's analysis, Florentino fell silent.

   Although Real Madrid has a big business, it also has a big burden. There is no way to not treat money as money like those oil rich people.

   "Mr. Chairman, I have a suggestion I don't know if I should say it or not?"

   At this time, Mourinho, who had been sitting beside him silently, suddenly said something.

   "Oh? Jose, what can you do? Just say it." Florentino's attention was immediately attracted by Mourinho.

"Mr. Chairman, I think we should give up the plan to introduce these three players at the same time, because the probability of success in this case is too low. We might as well focus our funds on one of the players, which is more likely to impress the Chinese. ."

  …

   "José, your suggestion is very good, the previous plan was a bit too greedy." Florentino's eyes lit up, this is indeed the most feasible solution at present.

   seemed to think of something, and Florentino immediately asked: "José, you are the head coach. If you focus on introducing one player, which one would you choose?"

   "Cristiano Ronaldo of course. In terms of talent, ability and age, he is the best candidate."

   Mourinho immediately reported Ronaldo's name without thinking.

   "Although Messi is very talented, he still needs time to grow. Kaka has reached the middle and late stages of his peak period, and then it will inevitably go downhill."

  Florentino nodded slightly, then turned his eyes to Mendes who was beside him.

   "Jorge, what do you think?"

   "Mr. Chairman, Chris is my player after all. I don't think it's convenient for me to express my opinion on this matter."

   "Haha, Jorge, you think too much. If you really want to care, then Jose should also avoid it. It doesn't matter, just say it."

  Florentino smiled and waved his hand in disapproval.

  The boss is easy-going, but it doesn't mean you can be casual.

  Old Jianghu Mendes knew this very well, and after a little thought, he carefully expressed his opinion.

   "Mr. Chairman, aside from my relationship with Chris, Chris is indeed the most suitable candidate based on the conditions listed by Jose."

   "Okay, I see what you mean."

  Florentino nodded slowly. In fact, his thoughts were similar to Mendes and Mourinho.

   "Jorge, I heard that you have a good relationship with the Chinese. I have to trouble you to contact him about this matter, and say that our Real Madrid club is willing to offer 150 million euros to introduce Cristiano Ronaldo."

   "hiss"

   In the quiet office, the sound of gasping for breath suddenly sounded.

   Whether it is Mendes or Mourinho, this is really frightened.

   You must know that the highest transfer record in world football is only 65 million euros from Zidane.

   But now, Florentino is about to more than double this record.

  What is big money?

   Even the well-informed Mendes has to admit that today is really insightful.

   "Mr. Chairman, pardon me, what did you just say was an offer of 150 million euros to bring in Cristiano Ronaldo?"

   Maybe because he was too shocked, Mendes couldn't believe his ears, and asked again uneasy.

   "Jorge, you heard that right, 150 million euros!"

   Florentino was very satisfied with the reactions of Mendes and Mourinho.

   He is playing a big game. I believe that if this transfer is successful, then he and the Real Madrid club will once again shock the world.

  Real Madrid Club has always been the protagonist in the football world.

  Other clubs, at most, are just temporary replacements when the protagonist goes to rest.

   After coming out of Florentino's office, Mendes and Mourinho tacitly glanced at each other.

   did not say a word, everything was silent.

   Returning to his residence, Mendes did not contact Chen Ran, but called Ronaldo directly.
