The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 520 A Blockbuster

"A car to the Olympic Stadium?"

In the garden parking lot of the Cavalli Waldorf Astoria Resort, Chen Jun, carrying a heavy suitcase, walked to the front door of a white Mercedes-Benz bus. The logo of Turnham Hotspur.

"Yes, there is a special vehicle for journalists accompanying the team. Do you have a press card?" Standing at the front door was a middle-aged man with a strong face.

Chen Jun handed over his press card, and the middle-aged man scanned down a list in his hand one by one, and soon found Chen Jun's name, which was submitted by Tottenham Hotspur before. List of reporters accompanying the team.

"You can get in the car, please!" said the middle-aged man.

"Thank you!" Chen Jun nodded his thanks, but glanced at a black Vanhool double-decker luxury bus not far away. He knew that it was a famous European bus brand, Belgium Vanhool, provided by the organizing committee. Dedicated car for Tottenham Hotspur first-team players, "When does this one leave?"

"Soon!" The middle-aged man replied sternly, obviously not intending to say too much.

To be honest, everyone is still a little wary of reporters.

Chen Jun glanced behind him again. There were three or four Mercedes-Benz buses in a row. These buses were used to receive the players' families and relatives. They also lived in the Cavalli Waldorf Astoria Resort Hotel. I heard that this time Everyone's accommodation expenses were paid by Ye Qiu, even all the journalists accompanying the team were exempted from their board and lodging expenses.

This is indeed a big deal!
Don't look at Ye Qiu's money, but money has to be measured. There are so many people staying for two days and two nights, especially in this kind of five-star luxury resort hotel. This is not a small fee, but a lot of money. But usually Ye Qiu seems to be quite stingy, but his principle of doing things is like this, no matter how much money should be spent, he will not frown, and he will save every penny that should not be spent.

"Hi, Chen!" As soon as Chen Jun got into the car, someone waved at him, a slightly fat Italian.

"Hi, Giancarlo!" Chen Jun walked over immediately. This is Giancarlo Garavotti, a reporter from Gazzetta dello Sport in London.

Sitting next to him is Sean Ingle, a well-known reporter from the British Guardian newspaper who has risen very fast in recent years.

As a reporter at the European Central Station of China's largest state-run TV station, Chen Jun has dealt with these people a lot. He even has a lot of news channels from these colleagues. Of course, he will distinguish the true from the false by himself.

There is a limit to the number of journalists accompanying each team participating in the UEFA Champions League final. Tottenham Hotspur gave Chen Jun a spot in China, but China will broadcast the UEFA Champions League final live and record it specially. A special program, Chen Jun will provide some materials, even some interviews with some players after staying in the hotel.

This can be regarded as the privilege of some team reporters given by Tottenham Hotspur.

"Cunning Spaniard!" Sean Ingle was flipping through Leaf Technology's tablet computer and watching some news from it. His tone was a little calm, but it was difficult to conceal his indignation.

"Who said such a big news before the game was not a conspiracy?" Giancarlo Garavotti of Gazzetta dello Sport laughed.

The Italian does not support Barcelona or Tottenham Hotspur. He is a Serie A fan, so he is happy to remain neutral and watch the pre-match confrontation between the two teams with detachment.

"The Spanish media is doing it like this, it's a bit low!" Chen Jun also noticed that the display on Sean Ingle's tablet computer was early this morning, which was first exposed by the Spanish media, but at the same time, it was reported by the media all over the world. The reports were reproduced one after another.

According to media reports, Messi has decided to switch to Manchester City with a transfer fee of 5000 million euros after the end of this season, and it is reported that Florentino will return to the chairmanship of Real Madrid, and he will spend a summer Time to fill Real Madrid's superstar vacancy in the past three years, so he will hollow out the entire European superstar overnight, targeting Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo, Tottenham Hotspur's Franck Ribery and AC Milan Kaka.

In addition, the news that Manchester United will fight for Gareth Bale to replace Cristiano Ronaldo has also been confirmed by insiders of Manchester United, but all of these news are not the most important. The most important thing is that a Spanish reporter found Messi's father Meeting with Barcelona executives in a hotel in Barcelona, ​​and came to the conclusion that Messi did everything possible to return to La Liga.

As the saying goes, there are pictures and the truth, and the Spanish media also published a few photos, which indeed took pictures of Messi's father and a Barcelona executive named Bacchi. It is said that he is Laporta's think tank and Guardio pull buddy.

"This is obviously going to shake the morale of Tottenham Hotspur!" Sean Ingle was a little annoyed, "Messi's father did a pretty stupid thing, whether he was used by the game or not, but it is absolutely It's a big fool!"

Before such an important game, Jorge, who monopolizes the power of Messi, even met Barcelona executives privately, and was photographed by reporters and distributed to the world. This is bound to cause an uproar among Tottenham Hotspur fans all over the world , And it is bound to make Messi's position in the locker room very embarrassing.

How should he face the head coach and his teammates?

Returning to Barcelona, ​​this rumor has always existed since Messi joined Tottenham Hotspur and performed well, not only him, but Fabregas, who also revealed to the media that he would return to Barcelona, ​​and There have always been media rumors that David Silva's ultimate goal is to join Real Madrid, which he has dreamed of since childhood.

As senior journalists, they are different from other fans because they know more.

Don’t look at the players playing football on the court, but in fact, they are also human beings, they are also fans, they have their own feelings, they have their favorite teams, they have their favorite stars, so sometimes, they publish some Remarks about which team they like may just be out of feeling, and it does not mean that they will put it into practice.

Of course, there is another situation like Barcelona, ​​which uses emotional offensives to constantly harass and influence.

Chen Jun couldn't help thinking of a saying of many young people in China, as long as the hoe dances well, there is no city wall that cannot be dug down.

Sean Ingle is even more amazing, "Their approach is like those women in London nightclubs who try their best to climb onto the bed of stars. Even if you give her a yellow card or a red card, it can't stop them from achieving their goal, unless You don't like women!"

With the economic downturn, this is the case in all parts of Europe. There are quite a few pretty women who want to become famous overnight, and becoming a professional player is undoubtedly the fastest shortcut, because professional players tend to be more energetic. The particularity, the ascetic life of abstinence, makes it difficult for them to resist temptation.

But if it’s just to seduce, it’s not that big of a deal, because it’s not uncommon for a player to win a coquettish girl, or even a third-page girl in the Sun newspaper. The most famous one is when Ferguson made Manchester United striker Yorke Bring his two three-board girl lovers to PK's love affair.

The scary thing is that the current media field has completely deteriorated. Many tabloids and magazines even try their best to provide huge bonuses to lure those young girls to do everything possible to seduce the stars and take some photos. Then they will publish these photos, the sales of this magazine will skyrocket, and this woman will become famous overnight, and the star, sorry, this is the price of not being able to resist the temptation.

Every year, there are not a hundred or at least eighty of the Premier League players who fall on the belly of these women.

Tottenham Hotspur is the most professional in this aspect. On the one hand, the team strengthens the internal management of players, but at the same time, it uses its own influence to help players resist these external temptations. , the team was able to use its connections and network to suppress the news.

In these matters, news director Robert Milson plays a vital role.

Because it is a special vehicle for the reporters accompanying the team, although the time has been notified before, it must wait for everyone to arrive before leaving.

Not long after Chen Jun got in the car, a domestic TV station called to check the situation and asked him about the progress. The live broadcast team had already entered the Olympic Stadium. Now the TV station will broadcast the game one hour in advance. The specially recorded programs and interviews are believed to allow more fans to understand Tottenham Hotspur.

Moreover, there are quite a few domestic media reporting on Messi's father's secret meeting with Barcelona executives, so they all want to get first-hand information and clues. To this, Chen Jun gave answers one by one. Inside Tenham Hotspur is calm.

When Chen Jun made the phone call, more and more team reporters gathered in the car. Many of them were celebrities from newspapers around the world, but not all of them were close to Tottenham Hotspur. There are many Spanish reporters among the team reporters.

And the time waiting for someone in the car is the hardest time, so they all started discussing the upcoming final, and began to predict the final result of this final, almost most of them thought, As long as the opening game is good, Tottenham Hotspur will undoubtedly win.

"If Tottenham Hotspur finally wins and successfully defends the title, it will be a victory for dictators and a fall for democracy and freedom!"

The one who said this was a reporter named Miguel Chico, from the London office of the Spanish daily sports newspaper. His interviews and reports have always been known for his boldness and boldness. He can say whatever he wants, and do whatever he wants Just do what you want, which offended many people, including the Barcelona executives, but this style has won him many Spanish fans.

It is reported that the newspaper wanted to expel him, but in consideration of fear of arousing public opinion, it believed that the Daily Sports newspaper could not tolerate dissidents, so it finally kept him, and this time Tottenham Hotspur also allowed him with the team.

Sure enough, he is still the same as before, always being democracy and freedom.

"What is dictatorship? What is democracy and freedom?" Sean Ingle is a reporter from England. He has always disliked the criticism of the Premier League team by Spanish reporters, and took the lead to stand up and fight back.

"It's very simple. Tottenham Hotspur is Ye Qiu's team. He does what he says, and no one dares to object. In fact, from his past, whether in Ajax or Chelsea, to Today's Tottenham Hotspur, and even his famous Leaf Technology, even zoomed in a bit, and the motherland behind him, isn't it the same?"

"In contrast to Barcelona, ​​he seems to be a model of a democratic organization. As long as you become a member of the team, you can have a vote. You can decide the chairman of the team and every policy of the club. Barcelona represents What he wants is freedom and happiness, his football is an art, this club is a social organization, he has only one purpose, to deliver happiness!"

Barcelona is a membership system. Even in La Liga, there are very few such membership teams. The representative teams are Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Regarding similar debates, I don’t know how many times there have been similar debates among reporters, because everyone is reflecting on the structure of football clubs. Many people think that a membership system should be adopted, while some people think that a membership system is not good, and private ownership is better, but they support it. Membership people feel that what private ownership brings is monopoly, which is what Miguel Chico called dictatorship.

Normally, Chen Jun would seldom participate in it, because his identity is more sensitive, but now he feels that he has to say a few words, because this time Miguel Kiko hit too much.

"Mr. Miguel Chico, I am a reporter from China National Television, Chen Jun!"

After a pause, Chen Jun continued: "I can answer these questions for you. First of all, I don't think Tottenham Hotspur is a dictatorship. Anyone who has a deep understanding of this football club knows that Ye Qiu manages sports. , Peter Kenyon is in charge of business, Robert Milson is in charge of news and public relations, Ron Gourley is in charge of daily operations, all things have a clear division of labor and cooperation, you can't just because the ownership of the club belongs to Ye Qiu It's a dictatorial team."

"If you think Tottenham Hotspur is a dictatorship, Manchester United? Chelsea? AC Milan? Inter Milan? Juventus? Are they all dictatorships too? Also, you said you represent freedom and happiness, I believe everyone here Nobody ever forgets what you get when you choose Gaspart for what you call freedom and democracy."

Miguel Chico had known for a long time that the other party would use this to fight back. He shrugged and said, "It was a period of dark pain before the light, and now we are ushering in the light."

After hearing this, Sean Ingle shook his head with a sneer and said, "Do you know why the whole world is unwilling to trade with you Barcelona? Because you have too many people in charge, but on the contrary, Real Madrid, which you look down on, is very He is popular, especially Florentino from the first phase of Galactic Warship, at least they are much more popular than you, because he means what he says!"

"That's right!" Chen Jun immediately voiced his support for Sean Ingle, "I have always felt that don't keep talking about democracy and dictatorship, and don't let prejudice blind your eyes. Everything in this world comes down to nothing. It’s just a sentence, let professional people do professional things and perform their duties.”

"It's like Tottenham Hotspur. I think this division of labor is quite reasonable. Then you mentioned Leaf Technology just now. What's wrong? Is Zeus mobile phone bad? Is tablet computer bad? Many people like to say that he Now it is getting bigger and more authoritarian, but is he closed? How many companies rely on him to survive? How many entrepreneurs make a fortune by developing his apps? He only opens the outer code to authorized mobile phone manufacturers, Allowing or even helping them customize their own operation interface is to ensure that the system is not fragmented, to ensure user experience, and to facilitate application development by application developers, is this considered dictatorial and closed?"

"It's like Mr. Miguel Chico, always bombarding this, bombarding that, one day I don't like Tottenham Hotspur, bombarding him as a dictatorship, tomorrow I don't like Barcelona, ​​bombarding him for lack of efficiency , but have you ever thought about it, when you give them these definitions, where did your criteria come from? Who instilled them in you?"

"Smart people know that some of the highest-level rules and definitions of all things in this world cannot be defined and participated by the general public, because they do not have such abilities, and they can only be responsible for implementation. If they participate and formulate, then It would be a disaster and it would be irresponsible."

"It's like Mr. Miguel Chico what you just did, is there anything new about your bombardment? Or, is there any constructive meaning? You bombard Tottenham Hotspur, but you can't stop it He is defending the Champions League, and you bombard Leaf Technology, you can't stop him from becoming the world's leading big company, and may even challenge Microsoft."

"Let me tell you by the way, I went to San Francisco, USA for an interview last year. They were researching the cross-platform development of the Android system as early as a few years ago, and now they have made considerable progress. Leaf Technology invests every year R&D funds are increasing, and the budget in 2009 reached more than 80 billion U.S. dollars, which has enabled them to achieve a world-leading level in cloud computing, software and hardware development of various smart devices, and you, Mr. Miguel Chico , you will have a great opportunity to see him surpass one competitor after another in the next few years and become the world's leading innovative company."

"In the same way, you must have the opportunity to see that in the next few years, my motherland will definitely become one of the most powerful countries in the world, because at least we know better than you that whether it is strong or not is not based on words, but on It depends on doing, down-to-earth, and seeking truth from facts!"

"Oh, I also noticed that I heard that Mr. Miguel Chico is also using a Zeus mobile phone!"

The last sentence made everyone in the bus turn their attention to Miguel Kiko's pocket, and found that the thing sticking out was indeed Leaf Technology's Zeus mobile phone, and it was the latest model. It is meaningless to make everyone in the car burst into laughter, at least the bombardment similar to Miguel Chico.

But this Spanish reporter, who has always been known as a stalker, was completely speechless by Chen Jun this time.

Both Sean Ingle and Giancarlo Garravotti gave thumbs up to Chen Jun who sat down again with a smile. I didn't expect to be so eloquent secretly.

But Chen Jun felt a little bit in his heart. Even though Ye Qiu had accomplished so much and proved so much, in fact, there were many, many narrow-minded thoughts that were still deeply ingrained in the minds of some people in Europe and the United States.

Of course, with the contacts, exchanges and collisions over the past few years, there are fewer and fewer prejudicers like Miguel Chico, but it is almost impossible to completely eliminate them.

This made Chen Jun involuntarily think of a sentence Ye Qiu once said, a sentence that commented on these prejudiced people.

"Many times they are not out of prejudice, but prejudice for the sake of prejudice, out of envy, jealousy and hatred, out of the spirit of Ah Q that Mr. Lu Xun said, I am not as good as you in reality, but I will use my mouth to win you , to continue to prove my superiority and advancement, so, for this type of people, you should never try to change their prejudice against you."

"Go your own way, let them have no way to go!"
