"Football is really making more and more money!"

In the chairman's stand at the FedEx Stadium in Washington, James Murdoch, the prince who has been transferred to be in charge of News Corporation's North American business, sighed with regret.

"If he had successfully acquired Manchester United fifteen years ago, the situation for us might be completely different now!"

This man in his early thirties, the most promising successor to the world's largest media giant company, did not hide his contempt, even contempt, in his conversation.

Even this him, in the eyes of countless people all over the world, is already quite successful.

But so what?

It didn't change his son's view and perception of him at all!

Yes, this he is Rupert Murdoch, the head of News Corporation.

Yang Huan looked at this gentle-looking guy sitting next to him with a pair of glasses with great interest. He couldn't understand the relationship between their father and son at all.

If you really hate him, then just leave him and go far away. Why continue to work in News Corporation? Continue to listen to him, obey him, and even want to take over his country?

If you don't hate him, then why, from just a few words, can make people feel a resentment?

Isn't this too contradictory?

"James, you should know that it wasn't that he didn't want to, but that the British monopoly law and the fanatical Manchester United fans stopped him!" Yang Huan could only smile and defend the old man who had never seen his face.

It's not that he wants to flatter Murdoch, but that he has always been like this, saying what he says, and never lying.

When Murdoch wanted to acquire Manchester United, it was widely known in the UK, and it caused a lot of disturbances, but in the end it was declared a failure.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Huan finished speaking, James Murdoch laughed.

"My young master Huan, you should know that the so-called monopoly law,

The so-called fans shouldn't be a hindrance to us at all, should they? "

Yang Huan curled his lips and shrugged, feeling very depressed.

Dear, even if you are right, even if you are a vested interest, you may not be able to ask you, don't say it so revealingly?

Let's be a low-key, restrained, well-behaved rich second generation, okay?

"The only explanation is that he made a huge misjudgment!"

James Murdoch seems to be in court, a judge wearing a wig, giving a trial to a prisoner.

Anyway, Yang Huan couldn't understand the relationship between father and son more and more, so he simply ignored it.

But I have to admit that what James Murdoch said is right. If Murdoch had won Manchester United fifteen years ago, the whole situation would be completely different now. , the chips will be more.

But now, it's too late.

Even if Sky TV offers one billion, or even two billion and three billion, it may be difficult to acquire a Premier League team.

Because back then, the biggest obstacle to the acquisition was the UK.

But now, the influence of the Premier League is all over the world!

Even if News Corporation controls the largest newspaper and media empire in the world, it is difficult to deceive the world.

What can Yang Huan say more about the matter between father and son?

Only silence is golden!

Below the FedEx Field in Washington, a fierce football match is being held.

Defending champions Southampton face Barcelona from La Liga.

Neymar, who just switched to Barcelona, ​​put on the Barcelona jersey and encountered his old club in the first game he played.

This undoubtedly caused the media all over the world to fry the pot, just like a festival, the hype was crazy for several days in a row.

After Vilanova was unable to continue to serve as the head coach of Barcelona due to physical reasons, Rosell chose Luis Enrique. This Barcelona direct descendant had not achieved satisfactory coaching results in the two seasons in Rome.

Yang Huan was not familiar with Luis Enrique, and he hadn't heard much about it.

The only time he discussed with Bielsa, the Argentine lunatic believed that the Barcelona management began to seek pragmatic changes.

Obviously, Vilanova's unsatisfactory coaching period stimulated Russell.

But Luis Enrique is quite a high-profile guy. He imitated Mourinho's posture as soon as he came, and said clearly that Barcelona can only have one leader in the future, and that is him, Luis Enrique.

When Yang Huan heard this piece of news from the media, he almost burst out laughing.

This guy is a typical pick-and-roll type, and belongs to the classic image of being taught to be a man every minute!

Mourinho is crazy, on the one hand, because he just won a Champions League in Porto.

That's Porto, the Portuguese Super League team, is it easy?

On the other hand?

How many real big names were there in Chelsea's vote at the time?

A guy wearing the halo of the Champions League champion parachuted to Stamford Bridge, and put on the halo of the savior himself. Who would dare to say anything about that group of players?

But today's Barcelona is obviously different!

Let’s not talk about sitting on a superstar like Messi, let’s talk about Barcelona’s local stars Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Pique and Valdez, etc., which one of these people? Is it annoying?

Yes, you Luis Enrique is indeed a legend of the past, but so what?

In terms of honor, how do you compare with these players?

In terms of football status, just a humerus general of the Dream Team 3 is enough to knock you down.

As for influence, how do the stars of the 1990s compare with those of the new century?

Now, Luis Enrique said you are the leader of the team, so what do you think of this group of people?

Therefore, although it is the first warm-up match for the new season and also the opening match of the International Champions Cup, the Barcelona players obviously lack fighting spirit on the court. Like ants, but the players on the court are still grinding slowly.

What's the matter? Are you not the leader of the team? You should show me a leader!

Seeing this scene, Yang Huan shook his head in his heart.

Southampton's squad has suffered a lot after losing Neymar, Gareth Bale and Vidal.

However, the introduction of Suarez and Sanchez may not necessarily be weaker than last season in terms of overall strength.

The key is that sentence, it depends on how well Bielsa runs in.

Judging from the actual combat response, we still have to continue to work hard!

Thinking of this, Yang Huan couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

Sometimes, the theoretical things on paper are very good, but the actual effect reflected is difficult to meet expectations.

Neymarga Messi is like this, so why not Southampton?

When James Murdoch heard this meaningful sigh, he didn't know what he happened to think of, and he happened to be greatly touched. He also sighed and shook his head vigorously.

"How many smart people play football these days?"

Yang Huan felt a little strange when he heard this nonsensical sentence, and asked, "How do you say it?"

James Murdoch sneered, but it was obviously not aimed at Yang Huan, but at other people.

"Isn't the recent vote on FIFA's World Cup hosting rights very controversial?"

"Huh?" Yang Huan nodded, but it was even more strange.

"Hasn't this been controversial for three years?"

After the end of the World Cup in South Africa, FIFA announced that it will vote on the right to host the World Cup in 2018 and 2022 at the end of 2010, and the right to host two World Cups will be born at the same time.

This is the first time in the history of FIFA.

Not only that, this time also caused an uproar for FIFA's consistent black-box operations.

Anyone with a little brain can see that Russia and Qatar won the right to host the two World Cups, and the background is not clean, especially Qatar, no matter the weather or the location, why host the World Cup?

However, FIFA President Sepp Blatter insisted on going his own way and decided to award the right to host the World Cup to Russia and Qatar.

Three years have passed since this disturbance, and the protests from the outside world are getting louder and louder, but so what?

FIFA does not belong to any country, any government, who can control them?

At the beginning, the European Union even had to make an exception for professional football, including labor law, to make an exception in many laws, and even though there were many shady scenes in professional football, the judiciary could not enter at all.

Therefore, no matter how the outside world protests, FIFA will not be moved, not without confidence!

However, James Murdoch seems to be quite pessimistic.

"This time it might be different!"

"Different?" Yang Huan was a little strange again, "Why is it different?"

James Murdoch looked around and made sure no one was paying attention to what they were saying, then he got closer and said softly in a voice that only Yang Huan could hear, "The governments of the United States and the United Kingdom have already activated It's really hot!"

"What?" Yang Huan was very surprised.

Really hot? Or the US and UK governments?

Speaking of the current world, who doesn't know that the United States is the super-hegemon and the world's policeman?

As for the United Kingdom, although it has long since fallen, the rotten ship still has three catties of iron. After all, it is also the former world overlord, and the current world overlord's iron buddies and good brothers.

Speaking of the United States and the United Kingdom, this pair of good friends has joined forces, who would dare to trust it?

"FIFA committed suicide by itself. The outside world has been protesting for three years. Due to the situation and pressure, Blatter had to launch an internal investigation, but the lawyer they hired turned out to be an American."

Speaking of this, James Murdoch shook his head and sneered, "What's even more ridiculous, you know? This American lawyer has a senior background. Don't you think this is suicide?"

Yang Huan couldn't believe it when he heard this.

Don't you know how good the old FIFA people who made this decision are?

Even if you don’t know it in reality, have you seen it in movies and TV shows?

Furthermore, the United Kingdom bid to host the 2018 World Cup, while the United States bid to host the 2022 World Cup.

In the end, you were fine. In order to prove your innocence, you went to find an American lawyer to investigate yourself?

Do you really feel that you are a borderless organization that exists beyond all countries and governments?

Do you really think that the Americans and the British will not hold grudges when they lose the right to host the World Cup?

Or is Blatter already arrogant enough to think that he is strong enough to contend with the US government?

Yang Huan could only smile wryly at this stupid thing of picking up a stone and throwing himself in the foot.

But he was thinking in his heart, I am afraid that Miracle Media, which he owns, has to get rid of Blatter quickly.

Otherwise, once Blatter is unlucky, I am afraid that he will also suffer.

Fortunately, after he acquired Swiss Infront in the past few years, he has been splitting and reorganizing Swiss Infront and IMG, consciously downplaying the relationship with Blatter and FIFA.

Therefore, for Miracle Media now, it is nothing more than speeding up the planning steps.

But Yang Huan soon had a doubt.

"By the way, James, where did you get the news?"

For such an important matter, Yang Huan must confirm the authenticity of the news.

Otherwise, if the trouble ends in the end and it turns out to be a big oolong, wouldn't it be a laughing stock?

It's okay if you don't ask, but when you ask, James Murdoch just laughs.

"The American lawyer employed by FIFA told us!" R1148
