PS: This is today's first update, and the 136,000 recommended plus more will be sent again in the evening, well, that's it.

Prior to this selection, G14 had screened the qualifications of many alternate member clubs, and finally selected five clubs to enter the final selection.

The five candidates are: Arsenal in the Premier League, Feyenoord in the Netherlands, Benfica in Portugal, Glasgow Rangers in Scotland and Lazio in Serie A.

However, before the voting began, Van Praag, who was presiding over the meeting, stepped up to the stage and announced that the conference had entered a break.

In fact, the meeting has not been going on for a long time, and Van Praag arranged this mainly to give the executive committee members a buffer and space to think, to ensure that the next voting process is as smooth as possible, so as not to make the whole voting appear too lengthy due to some people's thinking too long; In addition, it is also to give the representatives of the clubs on the shortlist and the executive committee time to get in touch, after all, if you want to be a member of this giant league, it will not work without connections.

So, when Van Praag announced the hiatus, the representatives of the five candidate clubs rushed to the "wooing target" they had chosen.

As the president of Fiorentina FC, Zhuang Mingge did not receive much attention from these representatives, because they all knew that the young president would definitely support the team from his home country.

However, no one came to chat with Zhuang Mingge, but it didn't mean that Zhuang Mingge didn't want to talk to someone.

"Chairman Beckenbauer, you really make me look for a meal!" Because it was in public, Zhuang Mingge didn't want to greet the football emperor too intimately, so he had to change to a more formal title.

"Oh? It's Chairman Corleone, it's been a long time, what is the wind that blew you to me? Seeing that the person who stopped him was Zhuang Mingge, Beckenbauer was stunned for a moment, and greeted with a smile on his face.

"Well, I have some personal matters that I would like to discuss with you, I wonder if Chairman Beckenbauer has the time?"

"Ha Luha, of course it's no problem." As he spoke, Beckenbauer waved his hand to the Feyenoord representative who was standing on the sidelines, politely rejected the other party's intention to contact the relationship, and left the conference room side by side with Zhuang Mingge.

Because Florence and Ajax have always had a good relationship, when Zhuang Mingge found Van Praag, the other party happily lent a small room with good sound insulation to Zhuang Mingge and others to "rest".

Led by the staff of the Ajax club, Zhuang Mingge and Beckenbauer walked into the room, followed by Karin and Hoeness.

"Tell me, boy Antonio, take the initiative to find me this time, what do you want to talk about?" Seeing that there were only four of them in the whole room, Beckenbauer was no longer as polite as before, found a sofa to sit down, and said, "Could it be that your kid finally wanted to open and plan to sell Stefan (Effenberg) to Bayern, right?" ”

"Ahem, you're thinking too much......" Zhuang Mingge was choked by Beckenbauer's words, and hurriedly explained his intention to the other party, lest the old man in front of him say anything amazing, "Franz, I heard that President Johansson intends to participate in the FIFA presidential election next month?" ”

"That's right." Beckenbauer nodded, Johansson's intention to run for FIFA president has long been known to everyone, as Johansson's ally, there is no need for him to keep it secret on this issue, "Judging from the current election situation, Johansson's chances of winning are quite high, and compared with Blatter, the temporary successor of the old man in Havelange, there is a big gap in seniority and achievements compared with Johansson, so there is no need to worry about it at all." ”

You know that you will be so optimistic, otherwise Johansson would not have lost unexpectedly to Blatter who made a blank check in the face of a good situation. Hearing Beckenbauer's answer, Zhuang Mingge couldn't help but say a few words in his heart.

However, Zhuang Mingge did not dwell too much on this point, but told Beckenbauer all the shady scenes in his memory about this election.

That's right, Zhuang Mingge found Beckenbauer this time, hoping to use his mouth to help Johansson defeat Blatter in the upcoming FIFA presidential election and become the new FIFA president!

In Zhuang Mingge's opinion, although Johansson has also done some foolish things, compared to Blatter's kind-faced and black-hearted guy, the UEFA president's style is obviously much better, at least he will not put some unsightly things on the surface to disgust people.

For example, in 02, Italy was hacked out of the tournament with a stick, without the acquiescence of FIFA, how could the Ecuadorian referee openly blow the black whistle in front of so many fans in the world?

"Hehe, it seems that Chairman Johansson is very confident in this election." Speaking of this, Zhuang Mingge's tone suddenly changed, "However, I have heard people say that according to reliable sources, in order to win more votes, Blatter privately promised the AFC that Villapan would serve as the next FIFA Secretary-General, and at the same time, in the 02 World Cup, in addition to the two hosts, three more places will be allocated to Asia; At the same time, Blatter also promised South Africa the right to host the 2006 World Cup! ”

"Wait! Antonio, are you saying that Blatter is likely to make some promises to the continental football federations in exchange for votes in the general election? After listening to Zhuang Mingge's narration, Beckenbauer frowned and said angrily, "The Korea-Japan World Cup gives Asia 3 places, and the 06 World Cup is promised to be hosted by South Africa...... That's too much of an exaggeration, isn't it? Hebratt is not yet the president of FIFA, how dare he make such a promise easily! ”

The anger of the football emperor is also justified, not to mention that Blatter has not been successfully elected, even if he becomes the president of FIFA, if he wants these two things to be decided through the vote of all the executive committee, it is by no means something that can be fulfilled privately.

"Well, although we know that the chances of success in these two things are very small, in the eyes of the AFC and the AFC people, it is not necessarily. After all, people are lucky, and of course they would rather believe it than take the initiative to consider the odds of Blatter fulfilling his promise. Zhuang Mingge shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

"If that's the case, then 'our' is in a pretty dangerous situation." Beckenbauer didn't notice anything wrong with his words, and muttered, "Antonio, I think you know about these things, what should you do?" Now that time is pressing, don't sell anything to me. ”
