Chapter 513: After the Meeting (3)
"Chairman Perrault, long time no see." At eight o'clock in the morning of the 24th, Zhuang Mingge, who appeared at the headquarters of the Italian Football Association, unexpectedly saw his old acquaintance, Perrault, the president of the Italian Football Association, smiled and waved his hand to the other party, and greeted him in a rather pleasant tone, "I haven't seen you for so many days, Chairman Perrault, you really look more and more shrewd and capable." ”
However, Zhuang Mingge's greeting was not exchanged for Perrault's return gift, but a good complaint from the other party.
"Antonio, you, you really can talk." Perrault smiled bitterly and pointed to his slightly sunken cheeks, and said, "Although it is true that I have lost a lot of weight, it definitely does not mean that I have become as smart and capable as you said." ”
Speaking of this, Perrault's tone paused, and then whispered in Zhuang Mingge's ear: "Antonio, your professional league is too bold, right?" I actually plan to change the current transfer system! ”
The Italian Football Federation is not blind and deaf, as soon as the meeting of the professional league ended, they learned about the content discussed by the representatives of these Serie A teams through "certain channels", and the result was naturally a surprise to these football association officials who usually have nothing to do.
These Serie A clubs are really bold enough to dare to meet blatantly to discuss and decide on their own to reform the current league transfer system!
This is obviously the work of our Football Association, what are you clubs doing there! This was the first reaction of many FA officials after learning the news.
Hawkers, although the Italian Football Association has been enjoying the glory of the "small World Cup" of Serie A all these years, it has not done anything practical.
However, it is clear that no one likes to see themselves ignored by others, and the Italian Football Federation officials are no exception.
Therefore, after a short period of surprise, the Italian Football Association naturally followed boundless anger - you teams are too much, you dare to go beyond the bounds to formulate a set of your own, really think we dare not treat you?
A group of Italian Football Federation officials, overwhelmed by the rage, immediately went to Parma to question Francesca Tanzi, the executive president of the professional league, and asked her why she had overstepped her authority.
If it weren't for the fact that some people were still in their minds and reported the matter to Perrault before taking action, the latter quickly intervened to stop the group of dazed guys. Otherwise, the Italian Football Federation's crackdown on Serie A clubs will undoubtedly turn into a major defeat on the part of the Football Association.
After all, the Italian Football Federation is just a non-governmental organization (note: FIFA stipulates that national football associations must be independent, non-governmental organizations that are not led by the government. Except, of course, the Celestial Empire Football Association. When facing small and medium-sized clubs and some players, the Football Association may have the ability to kill them; But when their opponents are replaced by Agnelli, Berlusconi, Moratti, Corleone, and other big families standing behind Serie A clubs, the Italian Football Federation, which can be called a behemoth in the eyes of those small clubs, is just a decoration.
However, although Perrault himself sees it very clearly, it does not mean that others can also recognize this level. As a result, there is no calm within the Italian Football Federation, and some even intend to teach the representatives of the clubs who come to the meeting a lesson in today's meeting, so that they know who is the real master of Italian football!
That's why Old Man Perrault is so melancholy, because he knows very well in his heart that the Italian Football Association is definitely not the opponent of these big clubs in China.
First of all, of course, because the Football Association simply can't afford to provoke the families that support these clubs, if nothing else, the attitude of the patriarch of the Agnelli family, Giani Agnelli, towards this plan is enough to make the Italian Football Federation worried.
Secondly, if the Football Association really forces these clubs to be in a hurry, it is a big deal that these deep-pocketed guys will learn from the English side, put aside the Football Association and go it alone, and set up a new football league and management company to operate on their own, and the Italian Football Association will only give a nominal management right, then it will be a lot of fun.
Can the Italian Football Federation, which has lost the management of Serie A, still be called the Italian Football Federation? Look at the current FA, every year you can only look at the eyes of the Premier League companies, drool at the huge pounds earned by the Premier League, but there is no chance to intervene at all, you can know the outcome if the Italian Football Federation and the Serie A team fall out.
Therefore, whether from the perspective of the future or the money, it is not advisable for the Football Association to deny this reform plan.
It is precisely because of these two reasons that Perrault will try his best to suppress the opposition within the Football Association, trying to reach a consensus with these Serie A clubs through this meeting to jointly manage the Serie A league, which has significantly improved its profitability in recent years.
"Huh? Chairman Perrault, so you already know. Although Zhuang Mingge knew in his heart that some of the representatives of those small and medium-sized clubs would definitely report to their nominal boss, the Italian Football Association, after the meeting, this feeling of being betrayed by his own people still made Zhuang Mingge very unhappy.
"Anyway, Antonio, you should at least let me know in advance!" Because the people below have been making a fuss, Chairman Perrault, who has not been able to sleep peacefully for several days, has a somewhat weak voice at this time, "My subordinates have been running to my office every day recently, and they have put forward various reasons to hope that I will reject this reform plan proposed by you at this meeting, and severely punish the clubs that are causing trouble!" ”
"That's it? Well, don't worry, Chairman Perot. Zhuang Mingge smiled and said something that made Perrault almost have a heart attack, "Mr. Gianni Agnelli has told me, and wants me to tell you that if there are people in the Football Association who oppose this plan, you can pack them all up and send them to Turin, and his old man will personally 'persuade and educate' these diehards." ”
Feed! Where are you trying to convince the rhythm of education? If they are really sent to Turin to receive an education from the old Agnelli, it is estimated that the Italian Football Association will have a different person.
Perrault complained fiercely about Zhuang Mingge in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change in the slightest: "Haha, thank you Mr. Jiani for your kindness, but I don't think there is any need to trouble the old man to come out in person, and we juniors can settle this little thing." ”
Perrault secretly made a decision in his heart: no, I have to go back immediately to talk to these guys who are babbling all day long, and if anyone has any opinions, they will go to Turin to meet old Agnelli!
Of course, it doesn't matter if you go, the key is that you have to be able to make sure that you come back in good condition.
