More than 30 million is naturally a huge amount of money for a down-and-out household like Torino, but it is naturally not enough to see Juventus and Milan who can get at least 100 million sponsorships every year, not to mention Real Madrid, Manchester United, Bayern and other teams with a base of 200 million. But such a club, which has been operating on a small budget and barely making ends meet, did not plan the construction of the team in a down-to-earth manner after receiving unprecedented sponsorship funds, but instead took out excess euros (those sponsors of the Celestial Empire pay fees every six months, so this first payment income is only a little more than 17 million) to buy those talented teenagers, which is really incomprehensible. You must know that Donnarumma and Purple Beibei are the core of Italy's future that is widely favored by football, and their destination must be to play for the top giants abroad (this is not very reliable, Italian players have rarely succeeded in foreign leagues since Zola), and domestic teams can only choose the Old Lady and the Rossoneri, teams like Inter Milan and Roma are not good, let alone Torino. In fact, the name of this team appears here, which is really too joyful, but who can hold back a smile if anyone has some football knowledge? The toad wants to eat swan meat!

The above is the mainstream media and the Internet's comments on Li Mudi's "farce", which are full of contempt and insults to the club and the head coach of the team, but the people of the Celestial Empire, who have always been not very good-tempered, did not react this time, but laughed at the ignorance of those so-called experts in their hearts. When a person has completely erased the phrase "the prince will have a kind of Xiangning" in his heart, their spirit is already dead in essence, and they only know how to follow the existing order, and they have lost the enthusiasm and courage to welcome new changes and even participate in them, what is the point of listening to the words of such people! Torino are still far from the top teams, but as long as the ambition of revival does not die, coupled with the unity of the whole family, who can guarantee that they will not be able to regain their former glory of dominating world football after many years, and then wait to kneel and lick, ignorant and stupid humans!

In fact, those two offers were a strategy proposed by Li Mudi and then approved by the club's top management, and the price did not impress the other party at all, but the team could get a lot of additional benefits from it. The first is to show the fans that the ambition of the club is not just to bring in players who are cheap or not wanted, but we have always been determined to buy the best stars, and in the past few years those small fights were because we didn't have enough financial support, but now that we have the money, we will definitely try to bring one or more superstars to everyone. This will change the impression that the club has no strength and ambition and that this year will be a soy sauce game, and the enthusiasm for the team will be even higher, and the support will naturally increase (but is it a good thing to stimulate the fans who are crazy enough?). ）。

Secondly, the criticism and ridicule of Turin from the outside world will arouse the rebellious psychology of those die-hard fans, who will be more resolutely committed to the thinking of protecting their parent team, and will subconsciously ignore the temporary shortcomings and defects of the new head coach, which will greatly reduce the pressure on Li Mudi and facilitate his subsequent operation and command.

The third is to let the fans see the cruel reality. The two consecutive rejections of the offer must have been the reason why the price did not meet the expectations of the other party, so if they want the club to raise the offer again to see if there is a chance to really bring in those local talents, will they open their wallets to contribute to the overspent transfer fee. When Li Mudi expressed this deep meaning at the meeting, even Urbano Cairo, the chairman who attaches great importance to commercial development, couldn't help but gasp, this kid is so dark that even his fans are pitted, it's really ...... No wonder the Celestial Empire enterprises are now getting bigger and bigger, approaching the old United States, it seems that this is the unique tradition and ability of that mysterious country with thousands of years of ancient history!

Finally, it is to lay out for the future, and collect Xiao Tang, the three major Beibei (a brief introduction for those who don't know about it, Red Beibei: Turin Belotti, Purple Beibei: Florence Bernardeschi, Green Beibei: Sassuolo Bernaldi) and other young Italian talents, this should be a dream in the hearts of almost all football manager gamers who play Serie A, and Li Doudi is naturally no exception. However, even if Torino can develop in the best situation, it will be two or three seasons before the prestige and status of those players are recognized. Donnarumma said that the purple and green beaves were bought by other giants during that period. So in order to create difficulties for the other party's future acquisition, the team's new coach decided to incarnate the Apennine Peninsula's Manchester Lift - no, it was Manchester United, who helped the players raise their value from time to time. Speculating on the price, how simple it is, if you don't double the value of those players, it's not over! Anyway, if everything goes well, there are local tyrants of the Celestial Empire as friends here in Turin, and they are not bad for money at all! Of course, giving the players the impression that Torino has been following them and is eager to sign them is also a rewarding part of that.

One or two simple offers can derive so many effects, which makes the high-level people in Turin very surprised, especially Valentino Cairo, the little fan brother of the Celestial Empire coach, whose little eyes flashed and flashed straight into the stars, so frightened that Li Mudi quickly fled as soon as the meeting ended, avoiding those dangerous areas, and at the same time shouted again in his heart: "Lao Tzu does not engage in foundation!! ”

In the coming days, the staff of the club will each have a copy of "The Art of War" and "Tao Te Ching", and when they have nothing to do, they will take it out and read it. Well...... "Tao Te Ching" is because Qi Zu mentioned the "Oriental Divine Book" in a previous interview with the French media, he told in detail how his friend Li Mudi led it into this magical world, and attributed the success of Real Madrid last season to the teachings of this book, so that Lao Tzu's book once again sold well in the European continent, which is really strange enough!

On July 17, Castellazzi updated the sales of season tickets, just two days after the last count, but sales have jumped from 5,952 to 8,103, an average daily increase of more than 1,000, proving that the manager's strategy is indeed effective in this regard, and this figure is very close to the club's previous target of 10,300 tickets, and it is hoped that the task will be exceeded before the start of the league.

Compared with the gradual improvement of the Turin side, the Celestial Empire is even more in heated discussions, and there is not much exaggeration in the traditional media, and even the big event of Milan Shuangxiong being acquired by the Chinese has not been reported as much as usual, and it seems that there is some deep meaning that ordinary people do not understand. However, all kinds of related news on the Internet are endless, not to mention various analysis and prediction posts, and some people have come up with an idea, that is, to let the European teams controlled by the Celestial Empire Enterprise form a new league, and reformulate the rules to allow a large number of Celestial Empire players to participate, so that the level of Celestial Empire football can be improved. Not to mention, although this idea is not operational at all, it does have great benefits for domestic players. If you can't get out of that closed and narrow environment, with the kind of ceiling restriction that tiptoe will hit your head, the players of the Celestial Empire will never be able to grow, and the shouting of "rushing out of Asia and going to the world" for decades is a big joke.

On July 18, Beijing time, Penguin Sports, Haolang Sports, Sowolf Sports, NetJane Sports and other portals with the highest click rate in the Celestial Empire, combined with social networking platforms such as Weibo, Renren, and Gaoxing, conducted an unprecedented survey on the support rate of European football teams in the Celestial Empire. Each valid ID will have the right to select up to three teams, and they will be sorted by like, with different points awarded for each position, somewhat similar to the rules of the World Footballer of the Year. After three days of netizen voting, a total of more than 4.87 million valid participants were obtained, making it a rare event with such a high level of participation in the Internet era. (The enthusiasm of Chinese people to participate in this kind of voting is really low, and the event organized by the average website can be considered extremely successful if it gets more than 10,000 responses.) ）

According to the final statistics, the support rate of traditional giants such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, AC Milan and Manchester United still obviously has a big advantage, but because each person can choose three teams, this has caused some die-hard fans of a single team to have no other choice after writing down the first support team, and some people have put the name of the Torino team in second place with the attitude of supporting Li Moodi, which leads to Torino ranking very high in the final list. In the scoreless mode, the Red Bulls actually came to 17th place, fifth among Serie A teams, behind Juventus, Milan and Roma, and even ahead of Lazio and Fiorentina; In the scoring model, Torino is still in the standings, 16th overall, and 5th in Serie A. When this statistic was transmitted to the European football circle, it immediately attracted the attention of various clubs, if calculated according to the proportion of fans participating in online activities as one-twentieth of the total number, the Celestial Empire has 100 million fans of European teams, which is more than the number of fans of all teams in Europe's five major leagues (five top leagues) combined, what a terrifying support! No one dares to ignore such a huge potential fan market, so the national football associations and clubs began to urgently formulate a number of activities for Celestial Empire fans, including adjusting the start time, adding decorations and prompts with Celestial Empire cultural elements inside and outside the stadium, etc., if it is not for the country's football level is really not competitive, it is estimated that many teams may try to buy Celestial Empire players to increase the popularity of the club there.

Torino has made such a huge profit just because of the signing of a former Celestial Dynasty coach who has become a Spanish citizen, how can this not make the giants and first-team teams who have been committed to developing the market blush? It's a pity that there are no more Celestial Empire coaches or players on the market who can barely gain a foothold in European teams, and their heartache can be imagined. But a day later, Coach Li Mudi, who was looked down upon in every possible way before, and now suddenly became the object of others' covetousness, once again took action to teach a good lesson to those teams who were staring at the Celestial Empire market with an anxious look but helpless.

The official website of the Torino club announced that they have loaned 18-year-old midfielder John Hou Saeter (John Hou Saeter) from Norwegian powerhouse Rosenborg for a one-year period, and 100% of the salary during the loan period is paid by the Torino side, with an initial loan fee of 500,000 euros, which can be bought out within a year for 4.5 million euros.

Just when people who don't know the situation are still confused, Torino posted the details of the Norwegian teenager on the Internet, and when everyone saw the photo of the player above the document, they all suddenly realized, this is clearly a Celestial Empire, a ghost Norwegian player?

John Hull Sett, whose Chinese name is Hou Yongyong, was born on January 13, 1998 in Trondheim, Norway, and his mother Hou Yurong is a native of Luoyang, Henan Province, who immigrated to Norway at an early age. Because Ms. Hou would take Hou Yongyong back to her hometown of Luoyang almost every year in the early years to visit relatives, this player is different from most overseas-born Chinese, not only has a standard Celestial Empire appearance, but also has good Chinese, at least basic communication is stress-free.

Hou Yongyong showed great talent in football at a young age, and at the age of about 10, he was invited to the United Kingdom to compete in the World Technical Competition organised by Manchester United, where he won second place in the competition from 20,000 participants from 75 countries and regions, and was the only player to receive a second-year scholarship. It is worth mentioning that Beckham also won this award when he was 13 years old, but he won the first place at that time.

In addition to his superb skills, Hou Yongyong is also a well-known young pianist in Norway, and his skills and piano level are national-level to paraphrase Norwegian TV. Well, he is still a handsome guy from an oriental aesthetic point of view, and in the words of the Celestial Empire, he is someone else's child.

In April 2014, at the age of 16 years and 101 days, Hou Yongyong made his senior debut for Rosenborg, and in September of the same year, at the age of 16 years and 258 days, he replaced former Norway international Ola Rees as the youngest player in Rosenborg's history to make a league appearance. In addition, Hou Yongyong is also a regular in Norway's youth teams at all levels, and he has made many appearances and contributed goals for Norway Under-15, Under-16 and Under-17, and currently plays for Norway Under-18 national team. In addition, the 2014 Norwegian Football Association's Talented Junior Award, which at the time became one of Norway's top three rising stars, along with Odegaard and Aye, is a testament to the potential of the hopeful.

After learning about the specific situation of this young man, the outside world had to admit that Li Mudi had made another good deal.
