Chapter 130: What's the Situation?

Even though it's been a morning, the whole of Madrid still has the strong atmosphere of last night's celebrations. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

This is especially true in the southern part of the city, where Atletico Madrid fans have the highest concentration.

An American-made Cadillac travels from north to south along the main thoroughfare in central Madrid.

Through the window, you can see that sitting in the back seat is an American about 50 years old, wearing a neat suit and a regular tie, looking like an ordinary white-collar high-level American in a company.

His name is not very familiar to outsiders, but those who know Nike and Jordan series basketball shoes will definitely not be unfamiliar with his name.

Tinker Hatfield.

Sitting next to Hatfield was Nike's president of Europe, the head of Nike's sponsorship negotiations with Atletico Madrid, while the rest of the negotiating team sat in the back car.

La Liga has been very popular in recent years, but Nike's development in the Spanish market, especially in the football market, is not satisfactory, and it comes down to the fact that they only sponsor Barcelona.

So, this time, Nike's top management also attaches great importance to sponsoring Atletico Madrid.

Although the Sheets have fallen into La Liga, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and they are always the third giants in La Liga.

What's more, Adidas' flagship in Spain is Real Madrid.

Therefore, it is only natural that Nike attaches importance to Atletico Madrid.

It's like opening two flagship stores on the same street, in the same place, face to face, and playing against each other.

The group of three cars quickly crossed the city of Madrid and arrived at the Calderón Stadium.

"Hello, welcome to Calderón Stadium!"

Little Hill, the general manager of the club, saw the car stop and immediately greeted him with a smile.

He was flanked by Vice President Cerezo, Technical Director Paolo Futtre, as well as employees of the commercial department and the club's lawyers.

It was a hot summer, and it was close to noon, and the temperature was very high.

After the two sides met, they did not greet each other, and directly entered the conference room before introducing each other.

"Michelle, this is Mr. Hatfield, the vice president of design at Nike's headquarters, and Mr. Parker's most relied on right-hand man, who came here for this negotiation. ”

Little Hill was stunned when he heard this, specially for negotiations?

VP of Design?

The right-hand man of Mark Parker, one of Nike's most powerful co-presidents?

This is a big shot!

Not to mention Little Hill, even Cerezo and Paul Futrey were secretly taken aback in their hearts.

Generally speaking, Nike's sponsorship of a professional team in Europe, even if it is a big team, is made by the head office, and then the head of Europe is responsible for negotiation.

But now, the senior management of Nike's US headquarters has been dispatched, and it is such a high-level core executive, which is ......

"Mr. Hill, it's a great honor to be here at Calderón Stadium. ”

Hatfield not only doesn't dress like a designer, but also doesn't look like a personality, he looks like a kind Uncle Sam, and he doesn't have the maverick personality of a top designer at all.

"Welcome, welcome, Mr. Hatfield, it is a great pleasure to meet you. Little Hill didn't dare to be careless, and quickly shook hands with him.

"I arrived last night and watched your game against Barcelona on TV. ”

"Really?"

"From our company's point of view, I would have preferred Barcelona to win, but I have to say that last night you were better and more deserving of a win, which is really remarkable. ”

"Thank you!" everyone on Atletico Madrid's side suddenly had a smile on their faces and felt honored.

After Nike finished introducing its own people, Atletico Madrid also began to introduce its members who participated in the negotiations.

The sponsorship negotiations were led by Hill Jr., assisted by Cerezo and Paolo Futré, and the rest were employees and lawyers.

Generally speaking, before the negotiation, we introduce each other to each other, and we are just going through a process.

But just after Little Hill finished introducing the people on his side, Hatfield suddenly asked a question.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hill, but excuse me for asking you a question?"

Little Hill and Cerezo and the others are confused, what is the situation?

"Of course, excuse me. ”

After looking around the Atletico Madrid negotiators, Hatfield was a little strange, "I want to ask, why didn't you see your manager?"

"Head coach?" Little Hill and the others were stunned for a moment.

This is a sponsorship negotiation, what is the matter with the manager?

"Mr. Hatfield, you're talking about the high cold, right?"

"Well, yes, a young Chinese, I saw him directing the game, it was really amazing. ”

Little Hill and the others were secretly taken aback again.

This Hatfield is also a core high-level in Nike, with a high position, but as soon as he comes, he talks about Gao Han, which shows that in his mind, seeing the weight of Gao Han is more important than the negotiation with Atletico Madrid.

What's going on?

"Mr. Hatfield, Gao Han is the head coach of our team, mainly responsible for athletic affairs, and he will not be involved in other things, including daily operations, commercial negotiations, etc. ”

Little Hill replied politely, and then pointed to Paul Futrley, "If you have any questions about athletic matters, Paul is our technical director, Gao Han's direct boss, and he should be able to answer all your doubts. ”

Hatfield kept smiling, looked at Little Hill and then at Paul Futtrey, and shook his head.

"Forget it, I hope to find an opportunity to talk to Mr. Gao Han face to face. ”

Little Hill frowned, and couldn't understand why Hatfield valued Gao Han so much?

"Okay, the team has training in the afternoon, we can arrange for you to come and visit, and then you will be able to meet Gao Han. ”

Hatfield smiled even more heartily when he heard this, "Okay, then please Mr. Hill." ”

After saying that, the American in a suit and leather shoes stepped back to the back, as if this negotiation had nothing to do with him.

But this made Little Hill and the others even more confused, what the hell is going on?

Could it be that Nike's most important thing on this trip is not Atletico Madrid?

"How's it going, how does it feel to win the championship?"

A BMW X5 is speeding on the highway from Madrid to Mahadaenda.

Lin Xia, who was sitting in the driver's seat, asked with a smile while driving the car.

"Cool, very cool, every inch of skin, every pore, and even every cell of the whole body, it's cool!"

Lin Xia Yanran smiled, "Is it so exaggerated, it seems to be ......?"

"Seems like what?"

Lin Xiafen's face flushed, "Get out!"

"Heh, this is my true feeling, tell you that you don't believe it, don't believe it and ask. ”

"I owe it, okay?" Lin Xia glared at him angrily.

But soon, her curiosity came back to her, "So what are you going to do next?"

Gao Han looked at her with a smile, "Miss Lin, are you caring about me as a friend, or are you asking me as a reporter?"

"Is there a difference?"

"Of course, if it's a reporter, I have to think about whether to answer or not, and if it's a friend, I'll definitely dig out my heart and lungs and tell you the truth. ”

Lin Xia smiled very much, as if to say, even if you still have a little conscience.

"Then be friends. ”

"Oh, friend, I don't have any thoughts yet. ”

"What?"

That's a perfunctory answer, isn't it?

"I mean really. Gao Han's whole body leaned back, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked ahead.

"Will it stay at Atletico Madrid?"

"I don't know, it depends. ”

From this sentence, Lin Xia finally reacted.

Yes, with a Copa del Rey title in hand, Gao Han has the initiative.

At the very least, he didn't have to worry about where he was going anymore.

With Gao Han's current coaching results, as long as he says he wants to leave Atletico Madrid, there will definitely be teams interested.

Of course, Atletico Madrid is a traditional giant, although it has experienced a relegation nightmare, but the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and in Spanish football, if you want to find a better job than the manager of Atletico Madrid, I am afraid that only Real Madrid and Barcelona are available.

But Real Madrid's coach Bosque's position is very stable, although there have been rumors from the outside world, Florentino prefers to invite a famous coach to coach, and even Ferguson has been rumored, but it should not be changed in the short term.

As for Barcelona, with the current situation in the high cold, it is still quite far from this position.

Gao Han's attitude is also very clear.

If Atletico Madrid gives him a better coaching environment and offers conditions that satisfy him, he will choose to stay with the team.

But on the other hand, if it doesn't work, he will probably go to other teams.

But no matter what, Lin Xia believed that Gao Han would not disappoint.

"You know, what I'm thinking right now?" Gao Han asked suddenly.

Lin Xia still looked ahead and shook his head, "What do you think?"

"I'm wondering how I'm going to capture that feeling from last night. ”

"Huh?"

"Whether it's the Copa del Rey or the championship of La Liga, it's nothing at all, the former is not very valued and can't even go out of Spain, and the latter is just the second division. ”

Lin Xia continued to drive, not answering, but listening intently.

"I love the feeling of winning the title last night, and I believe that if I have the opportunity to win La Liga, win the European competition, or even win the Champions League, it will be more enjoyable and crazy!"

Speaking of this, Gao Han turned his head to look at Lin Xia and asked with a smile, "Do you think I'm a little inflated?"

"How can this be inflated?"

"Isn't it?"

"Of course not, it's a dream!" Lin Xia replied very affirmatively, and then said something very soul-frustrating.

"People, always have dreams, otherwise, what's the difference with salted fish?"

"Who said that?"

"Forgot!" Lin Xia smiled again.

This smile, looking at it from Gao Han's angle, is so beautiful that it makes people's hearts pound.

But she was right, if people don't have dreams, what is the difference between them and salted fish?

With Lin Xia's words, Gao Han was even more determined in his thoughts.

In the middle of the conversation, the BMW has already gotten off the highway and arrived at the gate of the sports city.
