Although the two sides have reached an agreement on the purchase price, due to the extremely strict control of large-value foreign exchange transactions in China, even normal transactions without any illegal acts may need to be greeted by the "big leaders above" to proceed smoothly.

Therefore, Zhao Shijie negotiated with Berlusconi on the method and timing of payment. Although Silvio Berlusconi, who once served as the prime minister of Italy, is not a "China expert", he still has some understanding of some domestic economic policies, so it did not take too many twists and turns to reach an agreement.

The Wind Team will pay Berlusconi a €100 million deposit by June 1 for AC Milan's summer signings, while the remaining €650 million will be paid in full by August 1.

After finalizing the details of the acquisition of AC Milan with Berlusconi's assistants, Zhao Shijie and his party boarded a flight back to China.

…………

On May 9, the 36th round of La Liga came as scheduled.

Barcelona, who had just lost the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, did not seem to be affected by their last game, winning 2-0 at their home stadium with a 2-0 victory.

Although most industry insiders are not optimistic that Barcelona will qualify for the Champions League final, they themselves do not seem to have given up.

In order to avoid the embarrassing situation of the team being unable to pull back the situation due to the lack of fitness of the players in the first leg, Luis Enrique hid the absolute heart of the team Messi in the game against Real Sociedad. You must know that in the previous 35 rounds of the league, Messi attended all 35 games as a starter.

Not only that, Xavi, Iniesta, Mascherano and Danny Alves, the team's main players who are already in their old age, are also on the bench

In fact, Luis Enrique had already given up on continuing to compete for the league title before this game, after all, it is not very realistic to hope that Atletico Madrid will lose all three rounds. So, instead of throwing your all-out weight into the league title, which is only a theoretical hope, it is better to fight for a slightly bigger Champions League trophy.

But to Luis Enrique's surprise, Real Sociedad, who still retained the qualification for Europe, made two fatal mistakes in the first 15 minutes of the game, and Suarez and Neymar seized the opportunity to score a goal each, and then let Barcelona who were half of the substitutes easily win a victory.

Because Barcelona's winning process was so easy, many Atletico Madrid fans suspected that Real Sociedad was "bought".

A day later, Atletico Madrid's away game against Levante also came as scheduled.

Although Levante, who has opened a six-point gap with the teams in the relegation zone, has basically completed the task of relegation, their manager can still send all the main players to face Atletico Madrid for the sake of safety.

Contrary to Levante's main force, Atletico Madrid, who needed to be distracted from the Champions League, fielded the same starting lineup as in the previous round of the league, mainly on substitutes.

Of course, Feng Quan, who missed the last round of the league, finally sat on the bench.

Perhaps it is because the recent games have been played too smoothly that the Atletico Madrid players have a mentality of underestimating the enemy.

After the start of the game, there were few scenes of Atletico Madrid players fighting fiercely in the past, but there were frequent pictures of Atletico Madrid players making mistakes in passing and receiving the ball.

Although Diego Simeone said before the game that "the intensity of the fight can be appropriately reduced to avoid injury situations", the reason for this situation is more due to the mentality of the players who underestimate the enemy.

The successive victories have boosted Atletico Madrid's morale, but at the same time, they have also caused undue inflatability among many young players. In their opinion, Barcelona who are doing their best are not their opponents, and a small Levante can easily win without his own efforts.

As Diego Simeone stood on the sidelines and shouted a shouting reminder to his players to take their game seriously, Levante midfielder Barral fired a cold shot from 27 yards out that went straight through the Atletico Madrid goal.

In fact, Baral did not intend to shoot himself at first, but when he received the ball in the 30-meter area of Atletico Madrid but was not pressed, and found that the opponent's substitute goalkeeper Moya was still standing a little forward, he decisively chose to shoot from a distance.

Conceding the first goal, although it made the performance of the Atletico Madrid players a little more serious, there are still many players who think that Balal's goal has a lot of luck, but they don't realize that laxity and underestimation of the enemy are the root causes of this goal.

In the following games, Atletico Madrid's pressing has increased, and the passing and receiving rate on the pitch has improved compared to before, but it is still below the team's average.

At the same time, because Levante chose to shrink the defensive relationship immediately after scoring, Atletico Madrid controlled the situation on the field, but could not score the equalizer until the end of the first half.

At half-time, Atletico Madrid's poor performance in the first half drew fierce criticism from Diego Simeone.

In order to recover the disadvantage, Simeone asked the team to play the second half of the game as if it were a Champions League final, and also replaced Thiago with Juanfran who "made frequent mistakes in the attack in the first half and often leaked in the defense", and then pushed Xu Xin, who served as a right wing-back, to the position of the midfielder.

After the start of the second half, Atletico Madrid, who was severely reprimanded by Simeone, really had a new look. Not only did they revert to their usual ferocious full-court pressing, but because of the high emphasis on the game, the success rate of passing and receiving in attack was even higher than the previous average.

However, due to the lack of a number of absolute main players, although Atletico Madrid occupies an absolute advantage on the field, Mandzukic, who carries the offensive banner alone, is difficult to break through the opponent's goal even if he can get a shooting opportunity under the attack of the opponent's average height of more than 1.90 meters of central defenders.

In desperation, Simeone had to send the "stadium nuke" Feng Quan to play in the 20th minute of the second half.

After seeing Feng Quan's appearance, the Levante team immediately replaced an attacking midfielder with a defender, thus further strengthening the defense at the back. Unfortunately, their adjustments didn't help.

Although Levante's back five defense has an absolute numerical advantage at the back, it is still very difficult to cover the entire 30-meter area, and as an "all-round striker", Feng Quan is enough to threaten the opponent's goal in any area.

Less than 2 minutes into the game, Feng Quan received Mandzukic in the middle of the front court, and got rid of two defenders in a row before killing Levante's penalty area.

Although the full-back Carabelas who came over to make up the defense was well aware of Feng Quan's free kick skills, he had to choose a gambling foul when he could not successfully intercept it. After all, although Fengquan's free kick scoring rate is high, it has not reached the level of 100 shots.

Unfortunately, Carabellas' "gamble" failed this time.

With the referee's whistle, Feng Quan ran a few steps and showed everyone on the scene a textbook banana ball goal, and Feng Quan did not open the [Full Moon Scimitar] skill this time.

Because Feng Quan has often only played a "single game a week" for a while, and has not played a full game for a long time, his physical consumption is not very large, resulting in Feng Quan's [physical function] condition has been maintained at the level of more than 90 points.

Therefore, even if he does not rely on the skill assistance of the [Full Moon Scimitar], Feng Quan is fully sure to hit this free kick.

Although it was only equalized by the opponent, Feng Quan scored a wonderful free kick as soon as he came out, which still dealt a heavy blow to the confidence of the Levante players.

As a result, even though the Levante team put most of its energy into defense, it was still difficult to resist Atletico Madrid's fierce attack.

In the 35th minute of the second half, Feng Quan successfully cut inside from the left side to the front of the penalty area and first pretended to hit the goal, when the two defenders who came over subconsciously stretched their legs to block, he passed the ball to the empty space near the corner of the big penalty area on the right side.

Juan Fran, who was on the right, adjusted a little and sent a straight cross into goal.

Although Mandzukic was harassed by defenders after breaking into the box, he managed to push the ball into the top right corner of the goal before the goalkeeper could attack, 2-1.

With just one point to secure the league title, Simeone ordered his team to slow down and play the rest of the game with possession.

Although Levante, who played at home, was not willing to surrender, but because there were only three attacking players left on the field, they could not pose any threat to Atletico Madrid's goal until the end of the game.
