Chapter 381: Hope
After arriving at Portsmouth, the negotiations lasted only a few minutes. Faced with such a clause, Ranieri has no reason to refuse. In fact, Pixar was also quite depressed, and he also didn't figure out why Jing Jian insisted on giving Ranieri such a high-tech.
It's actually quite simple. The team needs to rebuild and the head coach needs to be in place as soon as possible to carry out a large-scale recruitment work with the assistance of Pixar and two assistant coaches, Richard and Gavin. So Jing Jian simply used money to smash it, believing in Ranieri's professionalism as a "tinkerer", and he didn't want to waste time in the first step.
In addition, there is also a role for a thousand dollars to buy horse bones. With Ranieri as a benchmark, it can play a good role in the future, whether it is to bring in reinforcements or attract powerful coaches. Of course, Jing Jian will not blindly believe it, in case Ranieri leads the team to poor results, he will fire the squid mercilessly.
And the atmosphere of the scene has become warm. A reporter asked: "Mr. Pixar, I heard that the club has been acquired, can you introduce the new owner of the club?"
Pixar smiled and nodded: "The club has indeed welcomed a new owner. But the details will wait for a later announcement. No other comment. ”
"I heard that it is a Chinese, is it from Hong Kong? or is it Red China?"
"No comment. ”
"Can you tell me his name?"
"Sorry, no comment. ”
"Then why did the new owner clean up most of last season's main players?" asked Simon, the president of the fan association.
"Hello, Simon. Pixar greeted with a smile, and for his fans, Pixar definitely had a different attitude, "In the next transfer window, the club will bring in many quality players." I can start with a small reveal, which will definitely surprise you. However, please understand that some of them involve trade secrets and need to be kept confidential for the time being. ”
"I know that. Simon laughed, looking rather happy, "So are we going to bring in quite a few first-class players?"
"Hehe, Simon, use your imagination. Pixar was also in a happy mood, and also joked, "Okay, that's the end of the conference, you can ask another question." ”
Immediately, a reporter asked: "Mr. Pixar, does the new owner understand football, and what will he bring to the club?"
Pixar pondered for a while, nodded, and replied with confidence: "Hopefully!"
……
The news aired that night, and it immediately caused a sensation on the whole British island. There are a few hot spots: this is the first old English club to be bought by foreign capital, and the owner is heard to be from mysterious China. Of course, the British media is very powerful, and they quickly guessed that it might be the director Bramble who went to London to do publicity a few days ago. Similarly, the media dug up the information of the new head coach, and he only had one year of coaching experience in the amateur team?
Well, amateur owners and amateur managers? Do Portsmouth really want to treat the professional league as a game? The local newspaper in Portsmouth interviewed the former owner of the club, and although he did not reveal the name of the new owner, he did say a lot of good things, such as what the new owner loves football, will increase investment, and will even build a new stadium and training camp!
When the news broke, other places were watching jokes: "You can blow it, blow it! We don't care if we believe it or not, we hope you can deceive yourself happily." Hehe. ”
However, outside the British Isles, almost no one knows about it, and at most it is a lace in the corner of the newspaper. Is it a certain English second division club?
On the contrary, in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, it was very funny and hyped. But ...... angle of the report, I can only say that I am confused: "...... Capitalism has waned, and even the established football clubs have been bought by buyers from East Asia. It can be seen that the economic crisis has gradually spread to the upper echelons of the Anglo-American countries. And the superiority of socialism ......" anyway, according to the political background of the time, not even the word "China" will be mentioned.
In Hong Kong, on the other hand, there was a sensation, and many people speculated about which Chinese Taipan it was, and the domestic "Football Daily" was the first to report the news. Many are proud of the feat of "Hong Kong compatriots". At that time, Yangcheng's "Football Newspaper" was dominant, and the later "Sports Weekly" did not appear at all. But even so, there is no money to send foreign correspondents, so they are all reprinting Hong Kong news, anyway, they are all wrong, but they are really pig teammates.
……
And Jing Jian has already returned to the United States, and he doesn't pay attention to the chicken feathers in the United Kingdom at all. At this time, the family was restless, and Zhao Xia was making a fuss: "Thinking about going home? Why don't you go out for a few more days? Say that you want to go back to China with me, but you are so procrastinating, and you are so sad to go back to your hometown?"
"When did I say I was ...... with you" Observing the words and expressions, he found that Zhao Xia's face was wrong, Jing Jian hurriedly changed his words, "Then let's hang around!
Zhao Xia couldn't hold back her smile and pounced on Jing Jian's body: "I'm vain, I just want to go back to the village with my man." It's all said that my house has been cleaned up. ”
"Still live in your Zhao family?" Jing Jian seemed to have swallowed a fly, "I'll call my uncle, the former residence is still there, let him arrange someone to clean it up, and we'll live in our own house." Damn, a huge China, we will be homeless. ”
Zhao Xia smiled "poof": "That's done." It's nice to have a good home. When are you leaving?"
"I'm going to stay in Los Angeles for a few days. Jing Jian said, "Then I'm going to Hujiang." It may take more than a week before and after. If you don't have any plans, come with me?"
Zhao Xia hesitated slightly: "Or, I'll go back first?" I don't have any interest in those things of yours, so I'll go back and clean up first?"
Jing Jian knew that Zhao Xia had already returned to her heart like an arrow, and she was looking forward to returning to her hometown to show off earlier. So he smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll definitely go home before the 15th." I'll call you then. ”
"That'...... Bad man, if you promise so happily, there must be a deception!" Zhao Xia had already ridden on Jing Jian's body, but her tender red complexion and watery eyes betrayed her heart.
"Vain woman, what do you need to rest assured?" Jing Jian said with a laugh.
"I won't tell you. Zhao Xia bit her lower lip and glanced at her, "I'm sorry for you." ”
"Oh......" Jing Jian laughed, "Let me tell you a little story first." Ha ha. ”
"Don't listen, bad man!"
