Vol 3 Chapter 443: Yang Yang battle

With Yang Yang's goal, the Chinese team defeated Angola one by one and won the world's first win in history!
This quickly became the key news of major media all over the world that evening and even the next morning.
Even FIFA congratulated the Chinese team on the official website, thinking it was a memorable day and a gratifying achievement, which represented a new history for Chinese football.
In an interview with the media, FIFA President Blatter said publicly that Yang Yang is bound to be recorded in the history of football because of the outstanding performance of this World Cup. At the same time, he also looks forward to this 19-year-old talented player, who can The Chinese team, Asian football, and even world football have made even more outstanding contributions.
Four goals, Yang Yang caught up with the German striker Klose who scored twice on the previous day and counterattacked on the scorer list. Both of them led the World Cup scorer list.
But unlike the German team that advanced to the knockout, the Chinese team left with regret because Portugal and Mexico drew one to one.
This also made countless media and fans feel sorry for Yang Yang, because everyone believes that he could have achieved better results, and even can compete for the World Cup golden boots, but the national team's weakness dragged him.
However, in an interview with the media, Yang Yang said with confidence that this World Cup was very rewarding.
"We have seen the level of the world's top strong teams. Portugal, Mexico and Angola are very good teams. Competing with such teams, regardless of winning or losing, is a valuable asset for us."
As the captain of the team and leading the team to the first World Cup victory in the history of Chinese football, Yang Yang expressed his pride and thanked all the fans in the country for their support.
"There is no doubt that Chinese football is still very weak and there are still many problems. This requires all of us to work together, especially the support from the fans. Our tireless efforts on the court are only to prevent more than one billion compatriots. We are disappointed. "
"Here, I just want to tell them that you are the hope of Chinese football!"
Yang Yang was quite calm about being eliminated from the World Cup with regret, saying that this is normal.
"Complain about opponents playing tacit ball? No, this is useless. It is normal and understandable to maximize your own interests within the scope of reasonable rules."
"If I really want to complain, I think we didn't play well in the first round of the group stage. We originally could not lose, but there is no regret medicine to take in this world."
"But it doesn't matter. This session is a painful lesson for us, but the next time we come again, we will be stronger than now. I believe that the next time we will not just be a breakthrough of zero, and I want the group to qualify. "
...
Yang Yang's remarks came back to the country, which greatly aroused the enthusiasm of domestic fans and triggered heated discussions on the Internet.
At the same time, foreign media are also scrambling to report on Yang Yang's game.
As a European supernova, Yang Yang's every move has attracted the attention of the media and fans all over the world, especially now his transfer suspense, and he scored four goals in three group matches in the World Cup, with Klose Tied for the top spot in the shooter list, which surprised many fans, but also very admired.
The Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, who claimed to compete with him, scored a goal, or the penalty that Figo gave him, and Yang Yang's four goals were all achieved.
Barcelona's genius teenager Messi also scored a goal in Argentina's 6-0 victory over Serbia.
It can be said that whether in terms of goal quality or difficulty, Yang Yang is worse than these two competitors of similar age, at least considering that the overall strength of the Chinese team is far inferior to Portugal and Argentina.
Amidst the hype in the media, the World Cup also ended all group matches.
The Chinese team returned to Beijing from Germany the day after defeating Angola.
With news in advance, thousands of fans gathered at Beijing Capital Airport to welcome the triumphant return of the national team like a hero.
Especially Yang Yang, who scored four goals, became a hero in the eyes of all fans.
The fans' battle was great, and the scene was even a bit chaotic, but in the end, the order was maintained.
After returning to Xianghe Base, the national team announced the dissolution on the spot.
Yang Yang returned to Beijing quietly and flew to his hometown of Quanzhou with Su Ye the next day.
…………
…………
When Yang Yang got on the flight home, at the Nike headquarters in the United States, an emergency video conference about him was in progress, including Mark Parker, who just took office as Nike CEO in January.
In addition to the core senior executives of the Nike headquarters, there are several other regional directors and core senior executives in the video.
There is only one reason for launching this long-distance video conference, that is Yang Yang!
"I admit that our team made a wrong decision before the World Cup and caused serious losses."
The president of Nike Global Brand Marketing, Charles Danson, looks a little dignified, obviously the problem is not small.
"At that time, the European region reported to us on the negotiations, but we believe that at the current level of Yang Yang's performance, it is still far from the standard of top players. Even if there is a bonus in the Chinese market, we can only at most Given about eight million euros, this is already similar to Beckham, far higher than Kaka, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. "
When Charles Danson spoke here, the words changed, "But the other agent's agent opened his lion and shouted a sky-high price of 15 million euros. This is absolutely impossible to accept, and it has even exceeded nba players. "
Everyone attending the meeting nodded their heads, obviously agreeing with this statement.
Although Nike is rich in money, it is definitely not Kaizi, it is impossible to invest heavily in a player.
"The mistake we made was to underestimate Adidas' interest in Yang Yang. After snatching Messi from us, Adidas is also determined to get Yang Yang, and they have decided to increase their investment in football. This time sponsoring Liverpool, The cost reached ten million pounds per year. "
"The sponsor of Ajax is Adidas, and in order to avoid the loss of Yang Yang, Adidas offered to let Chelsea, Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich participate in the competition, hoping to keep Yang Yang in their In the camp, he even expressed his willingness to pay part of Yang Yang's salary for this team through sponsorship. "
"In addition, we have reliable information. During the World Cup, Adidas sent people to contact Yang Yang many times. They are sponsors of the Chinese team and they are justified. Their negotiators and Yang Yang ’s agents have also been very good. Frequent contacts have also made Laiola's attitude towards negotiation in this period of time very fast. "
Nike's original strategy was to temporarily cool Yang Yang and let Laiola take the initiative, but they obviously miscalculated the situation.
Adidas is obviously more interested in Yang Yang than they expected.
"Although the Chinese team was eliminated from the World Cup, Yang Yang shined with four goals, and his reputation was intact. He went to the next level, especially in China, where his reputation has reached the highest level ever. At the peak, the influence is amazing, and our contract with him is only one year left. "
This is also the most unfavorable place for Nike at present, because with the support of Adidas, Yang Yang is likely to terminate the contract in advance. Although Nike paid a sum of money, it was paid by Adidas, and Yang Yang did not lose any damage.
"Woo Nan, what do you think?" CEO Mark Parker asked an executive in the video.
Woo Nam McLoughlin, an Irishman, joined Nike in 1998. He first served as the sales director for Africa, and became vice president of the Asia Pacific region in 2001. Nike has achieved rapid development in the Asia-Pacific region and is now serving as Europe and the Middle East. And the vice president of Africa can be described as a prince of Nike.
Even more rare is that he is very familiar with the Asian and European markets.
"In the Chinese market, we had a very painful experience." Wu Nan McLafflin said lightly.
Many people present nodded their heads. That was something that Nike ’s top executives did n’t say. That ’s why Giants Yao switched from Nike to Reebok. This caused huge losses to Nike, so that there is no chance to make up for it now. .
And now, Giant Yao has also moved from the Reebok camp to the Adidas camp, making the German company even more powerful.
"We made a serious mistake before, we should stabilize Yang Yang and his agent, but we took a cold attitude, this is obviously a mistake before repeating Yao Giant, and now, our opponents instead follow They moved closer, and even if I received the news, Yang Yang is likely to switch to the team under Adidas. "
Everyone on the scene looked dignified and worried.
Adidas is a veteran of the football industry, and has close cooperation with FIFA and many rich teams. Nike has always wanted to surpass its opponents in the field of football.
"According to the current market survey, Yang Yang not only has an amazing popularity in China, but also has a very high popularity and influence in Asia, Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, even in Europe and the United States. Shows amazing market value and potential. "
"I can even say that he is an important factor in our ability to achieve sales targets and high-speed growth in China and Asia in the next few years. Whether or not to fight again will require everyone to negotiate and decide."
Although Woo Nam McLoughlin did not make it clear, he clearly told everyone that Yang Yang will become the core weapon for Nike and Adidas to compete in the Asian market, and the success or failure of the Asian market, especially the Chinese market, will undoubtedly determine who Nike and Adidas will be in the future. Will become the key to a brother.
This is no longer an estimate, but a fact.
There is only one Yang Yang, which is unique. It depends on Nike and Adidas who have a better chance of getting him.
This is also a war without smoke!
Mark Parker, who had only been in office for half a year, had a serious look on his face, and he began to realize that this would be a major decision.
It may even affect his position in Nike.
