Arsenal triumphantly arrived in London with a grand line-up at the airport, and most of the fans in London rushed to the airport to welcome the heroes back.

Arsenal then began to celebrate the championship, with a huge celebration in the clubs and dinner in high-end restaurants.

Fleet Street reviews Arsenal breaking new history and bringing the Highbury era to a perfect end!

Although Qin Xiong can't completely relax, because the World Cup will be held next month, he can't completely relax, otherwise it will be difficult to mobilize his state when the World Cup starts.

In addition to the two days of rest after winning the Champions League, he spent the next few days attending social events and using his free time to maintain his fitness.

Sylvia graduated, she was almost inseparable from Qin Xiong, and at the same time, she also began to take over Qin Xiong's business activity planning and make the most reasonable arrangements for Qin Xiong.

The news of the Champions League victory was quickly drowned out by the impact of the resurgence of the World Cup.

Henry and Cesc Fabregas privately went out to dinner with Qin Xiong before reporting to the national team, and they listened to Qin Xiong's tone, naturally hoping that Qin Xiong could complete the contract renewal with the club as soon as possible.

Qin Xiong told them a part of his heart.

Staying at Arsenal is his number one option now.

That's all, as for whether the negotiations can be successfully agreed, Qin Xiong does not guarantee it.

World Cup global focus.

The Chinese team will assemble at the end of May and will travel to Europe for the warm-up matches before the World Cup.

Qin Xiong has not returned to Chinese mainland and will join the team directly in Europe.

The day before he left for Copenhagen, Denmark, Qin Xiong was called by Freddie to a restaurant outside for dinner.

Now Qin Xiong travels. There will be countless paparazzi stalking in the shadows outside. His every move seems to be able to occupy space in the news.

In the course of dinner. Freddie told him: "You're going to add two major sponsorship deals this year, as well as seven smaller brand partnerships, and most of the previous sponsorship contracts will be renewed, and the commercial revenue will probably increase by about 60% compared to the last two years." ”

Qin Xiong was silent, he didn't seem to care much about this, his commercial value was increasing day by day, and it was difficult to expand his territory in the European market, but he still began to make a difference in the European market with his personal football charm.

His ability to attract money is actually at the top of the football circle. Because Asia is an emerging market that is too critical, and Asian fans who pour their passion into him will pay attention to him all the time.

Now he can earn more than 300 million yuan a year just by relying on the football market, and if you add the profits of the company he partnered with Tang Le, his net worth is estimated to exceed the billion mark in the next two years.

But this is not what he is most concerned about now, he knows that Freddie came out to dinner with him today, and the topic he wants to talk about is definitely not this.

At the end of the dinner, Freddie took his glass and said: "I wanted to talk to Arsenal about your contract renewal after the World Cup, but Arsenal couldn't wait, and Dane asked me to meet for two days in a row to discuss your contract extension." I've made excuses to excuse myself for the time being, and I'm going to talk to him tomorrow. ”

Qin Xiong showed a hint of a smile. Arsenal FC are in a hurry to renew his contract, which should be a good sign.

However, Freddie poured cold water on him.

'You don't think Dane's enthusiasm is pure, it's not, because Arsenal don't want to drag your contract extension until after the World Cup. In that case, they will pay a greater price and will not be able to meet your requirements. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Don't say the Chinese team, maybe all Asian teams are not valued by the outside world in this World Cup, I am talking about the outside world is the scope of European football, the reason is very simple, on the soil of Europe, even the South American champions have never reached the top here, this is the Europeans' own world, South American teams have not been able to stand the wild, not to mention the Asian teams that the European powers have never put in their eyes. This is especially true of the Chinese team, the outside world will not have expectations for the Chinese team, even if you are in the Chinese team, the same is true, not because of you, the Chinese team will definitely be looked down upon by the outside world, think about how many superstars have missed the World Cup? Because of this, the Arsenal club has a risk assessment, and the Chinese team will go home in the group stage of the World Cup, no matter how bad the performance is, it will not affect you, because the outside world does not expect it, but once the Chinese team can reach the round of 16? What about the miracle of creating a little dark horse? What about your personal prestige and influence, and the clubs that interest you? This will affect your value, so after the World Cup, Arsenal to meet your renewal conditions, may pay a greater price, in this context of steady losses, Arsenal naturally want to complete the renewal with you earlier. ”

Football is simple, but the circle is actually complicated.

Qin Xiong usually doesn't like to think about these things, but what Freddie said he can figure it out.

Freddie continued: "According to the information I have received, the Arsenal hierarchy is actually a little dissatisfied with you, because they feel that the personal expansion is too fast, think about the price paid to sign you two years ago, and now the renewal of the contract is a lion opening his mouth, this is not only greed, but also a kind of arrogance that they do not know how to be grateful. ”

Qin Xiong laughed to himself.

Greedy?

Hubris?

If he had been greedy, he might not have come to Arsenal at all.

The current renewal conditions are also based on the desire to make himself the most important player in the team, not how much money he makes.

Only Arsenal dare to invest heavily in Qin Xiong can make Qin Xiong believe that the relationship between him and the club is mutually valued.

He has never used the standard of treatment of other clubs, big clubs, to measure his remuneration at Arsenal.

From start to finish, he has had his eyes on the salary system within the club.

Using the salary system to establish one's own team status is the most normal thing in football.

"Kyle, no matter what, I just want to see a good result, tomorrow you go to negotiate with Dane, let's have a direct showdown, in short, I hope that the renewal of the contract, before the start of the World Cup, there is a result, to avoid distraction during the World Cup."

Freddie nodded slightly, he thought the same way.

Anyway, either after the World Cup or before the World Cup, if you talk during the World Cup, not only will Qin Xiong himself be unable to concentrate, but it will also create public opinion pressure due to media attention.

After the dinner, Qin Xiong returned home and packed his luggage and prepared to board the plane to Copenhagen the next day.

The Chinese team's pre-World Cup warm-up was more particular, and because they were placed in Group D, the other three opponents were Portugal, Mexico, and Angola.

The warm-up before the World Cup was selected in Denmark, Tunisia and the United States.

Because the opponents in the group are from Europe, North America, and Africa.

Naturally, the warm-up opponents also chose to come from the same continent for targeted adaptation. (To be continued......)
