Chapter 21: Florentino is here!
Overlooking Madrid under a dark night sky, the Bernabeu Stadium is the brightest area on matchdays.
Thousands of fans poured into Madrid from all directions, gathering in the direction of the Bernabeu.
The streets extending in all directions were blocked early, and only for fans watching the game to pass through.
They walked in groups in the streets and alleys of Madrid, like blood vessels with thickness and thickness, and finally converged on the big heart of the Bernabeu Stadium.
At this moment, the lights inside and outside the stadium are bright, as bright as day.
Although there was still half an hour before the game, there were already long queues of fans to check in.
No one wants to miss this annual intra-city derby feast.
Although Real Madrid's mortal enemy is Barcelona, and although Atletico Madrid is not as good as Real Madrid today, the intra-city derby always has a special meaning.
…
The new chairman Martin just called Gao Shen.
On the phone, Martin told him that tonight's derby should be won no matter what.
But in private, he and his staff were fully prepared.
"Judging from the current public opinion surveys from the outside world, the odds of major gaming companies, and the predictions of professionals, our situation is not optimistic, even..."
The personal assistant was at a loss for words, but Martin understood what he meant.
No one will be optimistic about Real Madrid tonight.
This is not really surprising.
It's just a change of coaches, but a 25-year-old rookie was replaced. More importantly, this rookie dared to provoke the team's core fighting force, the Brazilian Gang, and even directly took the top scorer and several humerus generals. All taken.
There has even been a saying outside that the Real Madrid dressing room has collapsed.
Carlos' bombardment is the best proof, and Raul's response is more interpreted as making up.
The Real Madrid captain has always been like this, always checking for deficiencies.
The morale of Atletico Madrid is like a rainbow, and Real Madrid is almost collapsed. In the eyes of many people, this is not a question of losing or winning, but whether Real Madrid can lose better?
"Then get ready and start the PR plan at any time." Martin made a decisive decision.
"As soon as the game ends tonight, as long as the team doesn't win, the coaching change will be announced immediately."
"Have Bosque and Hierro talked about it?" the assistant asked happily.
Martin shook his head and sighed, "They all still have concerns."
After all, Bosque and Hierro are both worried about Real Madrid's current situation, and they are both waiting to see Florentino's next move.
Friends are friends, but Martin must be firmly seated in the position of Real Madrid president before they are willing to stand up.
If Martin was just Florentino's puppet, they wouldn't show up at all.
"Then change the coach..." The assistant wanted to ask, who to change?
"Anyone is better than him, isn't it?" Martin asked rhetorically.
He didn't even know that when he was in Valdebebas at the time, his brain cramped, and he chose this Chinese directly. Which one is not more suitable than him?
Maqueda used to be a player of the club, the second team head coach Portugal was also competent, and even the sports director Floro, they could do it, but why did he just pick a high-level player at the time?
Whenever Martin thinks of this, he wants to slap himself.
It's still too rough!
At this moment, the phone in Martin's office suddenly rang.
As soon as he picked up the phone, when he heard the report from the front desk on the phone, the microphone in Martin's hand almost went off.
Florentino is here!
……
……
Florentino is here!
This is beyond everyone's expectations.
Not only did he come, but he also had a huge lineup.
The first vice-chairman of the board of directors Tapias and the former Real Madrid star, accompanied by the former technical director Valdano, followed by the personal assistant Manuel Redondo, the honorary chairman of Real Madrid Di Stefano accompanied him, vice-chairman and public relations Butragueno, the head of the department, personally led the team to greet him outside the stadium.
The whole scene was very lively.
The media also seemed to be well prepared. When they saw Florentino, they all rushed over.
The most powerful football boss in Spain has been on vacation in Miami, the United States since he abdicated. Unexpectedly, he suddenly ended his vacation early and returned to Madrid and appeared at the Bernabeu Stadium. This has to be said to be a big news.
The media are very concerned. Why did Florentino suddenly return to Real Madrid at this sensitive moment?
Florentino said with a smile: "Although I am no longer the president of Real Madrid, don't forget, I am one of the most senior members of Real Madrid, I have a VIP box at the Bernabeu Stadium, and I am still the most loyal Real Madrid fan. ."
He ended his vacation early because there were some things in the company that he needed to handle personally, and he came to the Bernabeu because, like all Real Madrid fans, he wanted to watch the derby game live.
Florentino expressed his confidence in the team's victory tonight.
"It's not the first time we've played Atlético Madrid, I just looked it up and we've never lost to Atletico Madrid in the last three years, four-nil, three-nil, two-nil, and It's at our own home again, and I think we don't care that we're going to lose."
If you lose... hehe, you know.
The media naturally asked about Gao Shen and the Brazilian Gang, and Florentino also smiled and said that he had heard of it.
"Martin has been my partner for many years. I know him well. He is a very thoughtful person and can be recognized by him. I believe that this young man who is nearly 25 years old must have his own uniqueness. We should give more space to young people to try and make mistakes."
As for the Brazil Gang, Florentino believes that every head coach has his own preferences for platooning and should be respected.
"For us at Real Madrid, the most important thing is to be able to win games and play football that satisfies the fans. As for how to use players, we should give the coach more freedom. This is a kind of respect."
The media reporters at the scene were very surprised.
Does this sound like something Florentino would say?
At the beginning, he often interfered with the coach's formation for the appearance of superstars.
Well now, he said to respect the freedom of the head coach?
This is definitely a problem!
…
Entering the Bernabeu and heading to the VIP box, Florentino took time to visit King Juan and members of the royal family.
They are all die-hard Real Madrid fans. As long as there is a game at the Bernabeu, they will take time to watch the game.
During the meeting, King Juan expressed his concerns about the game, as well as his concerns about Martin in charge of Real Madrid, especially the reuse of the 25-year-old Chinese as the head coach of Real Madrid, which can be said to be absurd. It has never happened in the history of Real Madrid.
Florentino still smiled and said that he believed that Martin could handle the current predicament of the team.
I visited several old friends one after another, and they all expressed their concerns about Real Madrid, either explicitly or implicitly, and some even suggested that Florentino should return to Real Madrid.
But Florentino laughed it off.
…
After Martin received the news, he immediately rushed to Florentino's box.
He didn't dare to be careless about his old friend. He knew better than anyone what Florentino was thinking about.
It's just that he didn't expect that Florentino suddenly returned to the Bernabeu and caught him off guard.
Along the way, he also constantly heard the movements of Florentino, as well as the words of King Juan and Madrid's political and business celebrities.
In this circle, there are no secrets at all. As soon as it is said there, it spreads here.
Martin's face darkened, but before he came to Florentino's box, he still took a deep breath and tried his best to show a welcoming smile.
But as soon as he opened the door, his face couldn't help sinking.
Tapias, Valdano, Butragueno and others were all in his expectation. These people are all incompatible with Florentino, although Tapias had previously chosen Martin because of Florentino. He complained about taking over, but he also scolded Martin, not Florentino.
It was the other men in the box that really annoyed Martin.
Ronaldo and Carlos, the two big Brazilians, didn't make it to the squad. As soon as they heard that Florentino was coming, they ran over immediately, but this is also normal, and Ramos is Florentino. It is also understandable that he came to the box for the introduced local rookie.
The question is, why are the Carrolls there?
This is the head coach that Martin fired himself. Florentino invited them to the Bernabeu at this time. What does it mean?
"Haha, Martin, my friend, surprised, right?" Florentino greeted him with a smile.
Martin turned his head and smiled slightly, "It's a surprise, Florentino, didn't you go on vacation?"
"After all, I'm still worried, I must come back and have a look."
Florentino had a smile on his face, as if he was chatting at home. Noticing that Martin's eyes fell on Carlo, he immediately laughed again, "When I came in just now, I happened to see Carlo in Line up to come in, you know, he's a guy who has done a lot for the team, so I brought him in."
Carlo was a little depressed, but he didn't dare.
"Don't be modest, Juan, I've heard it all, our new head coach comes to your house every day to learn lessons. You must have contributed a lot to tonight's game, right?" Florentino laughed road.
After Gao Shen took office, he went to Carlo's house almost every day, which has been exposed by the media.
Some media even believe that Real Madrid are now acting as agents. UU reading www.uukanshu. com, but in fact the formation is still Carlo.
Carlo was a little embarrassed to be sandwiched between the two bosses, but he still shook his head firmly.
"Actually, these are all rumors from the outside world. I haven't even seen a profound face since I left office, so how can I help him make plans?"
Carlo's words surprised everyone present, including Florentino and Martin.
Florentino invited Carlo to make it clear that he wanted to disgust Martin, and even deliberately said this to tell Martin that everything that Gao Shen did was Carlo's credit.
Didn't Martin know?
No, he had such speculation before, and even in the very small probability that he believed that Gao Shen could lead the team to defeat Atletico Madrid, Carlo was an important consideration.
But now it's different. Carlo has never seen Gao Shen. In the past few days, Gao Shen's drastic reforms at Real Madrid, the suppression of the Brazilian gang, and the earth-shaking reform of the team's tactics were all his own ideas?
Is this young man too crazy?
It's over! Really finished!
I was deceived by the depths!
Martin's heart was crying to death.
Ronaldo, Ramos and others were also shocked, because the locker room always believed that Gao Shen was looking for Carlo to learn from the scriptures, but it turned out not to be, which is too surprising.
It is unimaginable for a 25-year-old rookie to do so many things at Real Madrid.
More importantly, without Carlo's support, without the Brazilian gang, what would Gao Shen do to fight Atletico Madrid tonight?
Looking at Martin, whose heart was ashes, Florentino was secretly amused, but also had some sympathy.
My friend is just too rambunctious.
Human, once the waves are too rough, accidents are easy to happen.
