A hearing on Maritimo's irregularities in transfer operations was held at the Funchal City Hall building.

At the request of the Maritimo club, it was a public hearing that was attended by about 200 journalists, fans and people from all walks of life, and was broadcast on local television.

Takato personally attended the hearing and defended himself.

"The allegations against our club for illegal transfer operations are completely trumped-up charges, discriminatory and oppressive against our club. I think this is in line with the recent series of crackdowns on Chinese-funded enterprises by Western anti-China forces! It's bullying for Chinese-funded clubs! In disregard of laws, regulations, and morality, certain forces wantonly wield the big stick of sanctions against the current, which is unpopular! We hope that a few forces with ulterior motives can restrain themselves from the precipice and turn back! I also hope that the Portuguese Football Association can seriously investigate the truth of the matter and give justice to our Chinese capital and clubs! We will also take all means to resolutely safeguard our legitimate rights and interests! ”

Gao Yuan's righteous remarks were comparable to the remarks of the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the members of the investigation team broke out in a cold sweat when they listened to them.

We are just here to investigate the problem of illegal recruitment, how to pull it around, it makes it like an international political dispute!

"Mr. Gao Yuan, don't get excited, we are just investigating your club's illegal recruitment, please don't misunderstand, let alone go online."

"I'm calm, I'm just emphasizing that the interests of the country and the dignity of the nation cannot be trampled on! We, the Chinese capital, invested in the Portuguese football club with good intentions and for the long-lasting friendship between China and Portugal, but some forces with ulterior motives are maliciously slandering our efforts and imposing trumped-up charges on us! We will never compromise on this and will resolutely fight to the end against anti-China forces, unilateralism and hegemonism. What we want to pursue is fraternity and peace, and oppose oppression and discrimination! ”

In the end, under Gao Yuan's upper platform and nonsense, the hearing could not be resolved, and it was announced that the second round of hearings would be restarted at a later date.

Gao Yuan's purpose has been achieved, he is to muddy the water and win space and time for himself to operate.

But what Gao Yuan didn't expect was that things suddenly developed in an unexpected direction!

After the hearing, the media reported on the lofty statements made at the hearing.

On the same day, a large number of Maritimo fans and citizens of the Funchal region took to the streets of Maritimo, holding high the Maritimo flag and a lofty portrait for a spontaneous demonstration.

"Severely punish those behind the persecution of Maritimo!"

"Chinese capital is not guilty! The friendship between China and Portugal lasts forever! ”

"Football, it's not about politics!"

"Unilateralism and hegemonism are out!"

"Pursue fraternity and peace, and oppose suppression and discrimination!"

……

The demonstrations began as sporadic spontaneity, but soon intensified, with more and more citizens of Funchal joining the march, many of whom were not even fans.

The taste of everyone's shouting has gradually changed from redress for Maritimo to "opposing unilateralism and hegemonism", "opposing the new Cold War mentality", and "not confrontation and struggle, but love and peace......

The rallies and demonstrations in Funchal quickly swept Portugal and even spread throughout Europe through social media and interactive apps such as Facebook, ins, Tiktok, and Twiteer.

Against the backdrop of a global economic downturn, superpower friction, and surging unemployment, this seems to be a trend, attracting more and more people to take to the streets and demonstrate.

Most of the new arrivals were young people under the age of 25, holding high the flag and portrait of Maritimo, but they could not tell the cause and effect of the incident, or even the sanctity of the person in the photo, but it did not affect their enthusiasm for the rally, and the pent-up anger in their chests was vented.

"There is no peace without fairness!"

"Give young people more opportunities!"

"Win-win cooperation, mutual benefit and symbiosis!"

"Be love, don't fight!"

……

There are all kinds of slogans and appeals, and for these teenagers, the most important thing is to take to the streets to vent and express themselves, and what they express is not so important.

This has evolved into a peculiar social phenomenon. Some experts have analyzed and pointed out that this is a kind of cultural retro and reincarnation!

Today's young people, like those of the 60s and 70s of the last century, are eager for self-expression and catharsis in the cracks of the Cold War of the superpowers, so as to relieve pressure and express their confusion about the unknown.

As if to confirm the experts' sayings, the young people of Dun took to the streets and sang Bob Dylan's classic song "thetimestheyareA-Changin"

"People from all over the world assemble quickly

It is important to know that the tide is rising

Doom is at hand

If you cherish life, you will make waves

Otherwise, it will be like a stone sinking into the sea

After all, times are changing."

In this movement, the names of Gao Yuan and Maritimo seem to have become a cultural symbol, representing the resistance to unilateralism and hegemony, and the spirit of self-improvement in the face of power bullying.

Like Che Guevara and the revolutionary spirit, it became a spiritual totem and symbol.

Although in essence, the intensifying demonstrations throughout Europe and the United States have no essential relationship with Maritimo, but because of the influence of the incident, the Portuguese Football Federation was forced to withdraw the investigation team urgently, and held continuous meetings for urgent consultations.

At this point, it is impossible to stop the fight, after all, the Portuguese Football Association must also have credibility! In other words, it is impossible not to punish Maritimo for saving face, but the matter is so big, no matter how heavy the punishment is for Maritimo, he will not dare to make any more trouble.

After thinking about it again, the Portuguese Football Association gritted its teeth and made a penalty decision:

Maritimo FC is prohibited from registering new players in the next transfer window and fined 100,000 euros.

As soon as this punishment came out, Maritimo ran up and down! This penalty is nothing compared to the original expectation of "banning the registration of new players for two consecutive years, fining millions of euros and deducting league points".

The only thing that may have a slight impact is the ban on signings in the middle of the league, but it doesn't matter, the existing players are fully sufficient! There is even the possibility of competing for the championship!

And next season, if Maritimo breaks into Europe, it's not too late to bring in big reinforcements! This season is all about saving money for next season!

But Gao Yuan was not satisfied, he asked the club's administration department to draft an announcement:

"Maritimo Club accepts the punishment of the Portuguese Football Federation, but does not agree with the decision of punishment, some hegemonic forces are afraid of the growth and progress of weak forces, and do everything possible to use the power in their hands to suppress and exclude, we Maritimo people are not afraid of suppression and exclusion, we will face difficulties, move forward bravely, and use the excellent performance on the green field to prove that we cannot be defeated......"

As soon as this declaration came out, it immediately pushed the Maritimo Club and Gao Yuan to the forefront.

The Portuguese Football Association was naturally very angry and warned Maritimo to shut up quickly, otherwise he would be severely punished.

The major media were happy to see the hunt and moved when they heard the wind. Gao Yuan's announcement is enough for them to play on the topic for a week! It can be said that Gao Yuan single-handedly fed the entire European media industry.

And the general public, especially the majority of young people, are Aamaridimo and Gao Yuan are thoroughly regarded as "mighty and unyielding" spiritual totems. It is regarded as a contemporary Che Guevara.

Even, the cover of Time magazine in the United States used a set of photo comparisons. The old black-and-white photograph is a portrait of an American hippie holding Che Guevara in the 60s of the last century, while the color photograph below is a photograph of a young Portuguese man holding aloft aloft, and the movements and expressions of the two are exactly the same!

And all this naturally makes Gao Yuan happy that he can't close his mouth during the day and his legs at night!

If you say, you still made a mistake before, and in order to fish in troubled waters, you ended up with such a big event that swept Europe. So now, he's taking advantage of the situation. The public and the media like to show them what they see as themselves, and they don't pay for it anyway.

Gao Yuan, who likes to do things, finally made an earth-shattering event! He also successfully became a man who went from CCTV5 to CCTV1. The biggest benefit is the explosion of reputation, which is almost exponential. Not only did it quickly make up for the previous losses, but it also brought unexpected additional gains.

Now it seems that the system commodity "nuclear weapon modifier", which I dream of but feels out of reach, is not so untouchable!

Something, Gao Yuan really thanked Mendes from the bottom of his heart.

"Thank you for the god assist of the opponent! Lao Tzu really has to thank your eight generations of ancestors! ”
