1192 under pressure
Thanks to the tips of "Wild Times", "Dream Qianqian Dance", "German Rumble", "Tianjiao ~ Purple Wind", "Melancholy Wind 2011", "Jingye ○ Fengge" and "I don't like to eat fried rice"! ――
Nyon, Switzerland.
UEFA headquarters.
Platini saw Millwall's official press conference in his office, in which Aldridge said "Millwall withdraw from UEFA competition indefinitely!" After that, the press conference ended, and after a brief silence, the crowd was so strong that some reporters even rushed to Aldrich and frantically asked Aldrich more questions.
Yes, journalists are crazy.
And the president of UEFA, Platini, had an instantly hideous expression, and smashed the TV remote control against the wall with one hand.
At this time, a UEFA official pushed the door in and yelled at Platini.
Of course, not everyone in UEFA is subservient to Platini, especially since he has just taken office and is not yet fully secure.
"you, say no to G14! you-the Premier League! you-mom reform! It's good now! Are you satisfied? The most successful team in the history of the Champions League, the most watched team of this era, has withdrawn from the Champions League! We are now under attack! Not only will we face the EU's involvement immediately, but we will also give the whole world an explanation! We warned you! I warned you! Don't change anything! Do you think governing European football is as simple as you play? Now it's up to you how you end! You'd better pray to God that Millwall won't incite a collective G14 rebellion, in which case we will all be buried for your stupid reforms! ”
Platini defeated Johansson by a vote of 27 to 23. It can well be imagined. Inside UEFA. At least nearly half of the members did not support him a few months ago, and because most of the opposition to him was a traditional elite faction, they were not interested in his reforms, and now the outbreak of Millwall's withdrawal from European competitions has naturally become a lever for the previous opposition to attack Platini!
Look, what did you do when you first took office?
London blew up, England blew up. The chaos within UEFA also exploded!
The news of Millwall's announcement of its withdrawal from the club's European competition became the number one in the global news list of the day!
Shocking the world of football!
Platini thought that time could be diluted, but the next day, Europol announced that it would intervene in the investigation of the Champions League game to find evidence of manipulation of the game, and the European Court of Arbitration for Sport was forced to accept Millwall's lawsuit due to overwhelming public pressure!
At the same time, the heated discussions caused by web portals and social platforms began to affect the real world!
UEFA is a bit out of the pressure.
At this time, Blatter did not dare to speak for UEFA. Go and "crack" Millwall, because the center of the discussion in the real world has been too far away. Even the discussion is already focused on how corrupt UEFA's organization really is, how many black deals are deposited, and it seems that from the image of UEFA, UEFA has become the target of public criticism.
And FIFA itself is not clean, and Blatter wants to hide far away so as not to harm the fish in the pond.
In the afternoon of the next day, Platini could not bear the double pressure of internal and external pressure, and secretly went to London, through a reliable intermediary, to meet Aldrich!
On this day, Millwall was busy inside.
They are busy dealing with sponsors.
Their major sponsors came to the door to inquire about the future of the club.
In the blockbuster sponsorship contract, the conditions for the team to qualify for the Champions League will inevitably be given, and the sponsorship fee for participating in the Champions League and missing the Champions League are two concepts.
In this regard, Millwall is mentally prepared to inform the sponsoring partners that they can fulfill the contract, and as for whether the contract will be renewed after it expires, it will be seen when the time comes.
Sponsors are unclear whether Millwall are really saying goodbye to the Champions League for a long time or just saying it as a drastic threat to UEFA.
The current situation, in the eyes of those who have economic interests as their first goal, is a war with no winners!
Millwall will lose, UEFA will lose, and both sides will suffer huge financial losses!
There are no winners!
But that's what Millwall did!
When Aldridge finished dealing with the sponsors, he was notified by Andrew.
Platini had come to London and wanted to meet him privately.
As far as the ethics of an agent are concerned, many things are done in secret, and the predator in this industry, Andrew, must also follow such professional ethics, although it will be more beneficial for Millwall to expose the news of Platini's arrival in London at this time.
Why?
If UEFA is right, why did Platini come to see Aldridge?
He came to London from Nyon, and he didn't dare to be open, which in itself was a signal not to recruit himself.
However, Andrew still abides by the unspoken rules of the industry, because if he is exposed, it is equivalent to directly selling another middleman contacted by Platini, and secondly, he will become "untrustworthy", and his reputation in the industry will plummet.
Aldrich did not go to the vagina of Platini, he changed cars three times in a row in the evening, and quietly came to an inconspicuous restaurant, to Aldrich's surprise, the place where Platini met him was actually a Japanese restaurant.
Maybe there are fewer Europeans here, or maybe the private dining rooms in Japan are more confidential.
When Aldridge arrived in the box, Platini sat at the table, but did not follow the Japanese dining etiquette, and Aldridge stood there after the door was closed, staring faintly at the man who now stands at the pinnacle of power in European football.
To be honest, he didn't have much respect for Platini, and although Platini's playing days were great, but, sorry, we are not from the same era, and all we hear is your legends, and legends, which Aldridge is the least interested in, are too ethereal and unreal, as when he was first around Puskas. There isn't much admiration either. Even the most utilitarian technical and tactical means to defeat the old man. You can be proud.
Platini was also staring at Aldrich, who, in the past, did not know what was behind Aldrich, at best, as the media portrayed him: a rich kid.
But the reason why he couldn't bear the pressure on this day was that UEFA certainly also has media energy and connections.
They hope that the online media will stop focusing on UEFA and the Champions League matches.
But the response came as a surprise to UEFA.
Sorry, we may have. Maybe there is no partnership.
But that's just collaboration.
And what we are doing now is an order from the top of the company!
Listen to you? I don't do it.
Then you will be unemployed!
It was only then that Platini understood what kind of energy Aldrich's family represented.
At this moment, Platini did not have a low voice of consciousness, in his opinion, Millwall's decision to withdraw from the European competition was just a means of coercion!
In order to get back the lost profits.
As Aldridge also requires, Millwall withdrew from European competition before the matter was resolved.
What is the solution?
God knows.
Europol's investigation could be protracted, and the Court of Arbitration for Sport trial could be one hearing after another, and God knows when the dust will settle.
Moreover, the game of football itself has blurred boundaries.
Referees just make mistakes. It is objectively inevitable that mistakes cannot be used to convict them. Or is it subjectively artificial, and that will be an endless debate between lawyers.
Platini gestured to Aldrich, "Mr. Hall, since you're here, let's get down to business, and let me hear Millwall's conditions." ”
As soon as his words came out, Aldrich was very disgusted in his heart, as if the air was filled with decay and darkness, representing the dirty and shady behind-the-scenes transactions in the political circle.
Aldrich walked to the table as usual, and just when Platini thought that Aldrich would sit down, he did not expect a sudden shock.
Aldridge's right hand slammed down on the back of Platini's head and slammed it down on the table, bang!
Platini's eyes widened in disbelief to find half of his face hitting the table, and it didn't bounce back, and half of his face was numb in pain.
Bang!
Aldridge's left hand picked up the glass on the table and smashed it on Platini's head, the glass fragments flew one after another, and the blood from Platini's head fell on the table, merging into a slender stream of blood.
Platini was furious, but his head was less than five centimeters off the table when Aldrich's right hand was pressed back on the table!
Bang!
Compared to the crispness of the second one, this one is dull.
Platini's heart was broken, his pupils shrunk, and he couldn't resist at all.
Maniac, Lunac, Lunac, Lunac, Lunac!!!
Aldridge leaned over Platini's ear with a cold look on his face and said lightly: "Maybe you haven't played football for a long, long time, and you have forgotten the hard work that players have put into their careers, so you can erase what others have paid for you indifferently, and now, my players are still lying in hospital beds, and my players are at the lowest point in their careers, all caused by you!" Don't deny it, if you had a clear conscience, you wouldn't be here! Negotiate conditions? In my eyes, football is not a deal, what I want, you can't give it to me, I want to go back in time, I want the game to be fair, can you give it to me? And you show up here without even the slightest apology, this meeting is meaningless. ”
Aldrich let go of his hand, took a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his hand, ready to turn away.
He wasn't afraid that Platini would go to the police and accuse him of hurting someone.
In fact, if Platini had been found to have come to London secretly at this moment and met with Aldrich, he would have been in far more trouble than he had been guilty of struggling with Aldrich.
Aldrich didn't want to reason with him, it didn't make sense.
This world is like this, it's not that someone is willing to reason with you if you want to be reasonable.
And Platini opened his mouth to talk about conditions, which disgusted Aldrich, and the opening statement was simply terrible.
seemed to ignore the damage suffered by Millwall, which made Aldridge intolerable, and he couldn't help but be angry and couldn't control it, and beat people violently!
Well, it's over, and it feels pretty cool.
It may be more reassuring than hearing the other person apologize. (To be continued......)
