I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 336 Declaration of War! Football is Not Dead! Yang Cheng is About to Become a God! Judgment from Football Fans Worldwide! [Please Subscribe]

The 14/15 Champions League final was held at the Berlin Olympic Stadium.

This is a stadium built in 1936, and its facilities and construction concepts are relatively outdated.

Moreover, this is not a professional football stadium.

Between the stadium and the stands, there is a wide running track.

The track was covered with turf just to host this race, so it looks green.

The choice of this venue for the Champions League final had already caused considerable controversy.

Why choose Berlin when there are so many professional football stadiums in Europe with larger capacities?

UEFA has not explained the specific reasons.

Regarding the Prudential Stadium in London, which has high expectations from many media outlets and fans, UEFA General Secretary Gianni Infantino once explained the reasons in a media interview.

"To the best of my knowledge, we have not received any bids from Prudential Stadium in London."

The implication is that it's not that we didn't choose Prudential Stadium, but that they didn't even apply for it.

Why didn't Prudential Stadium bid to host the Champions League final?

The Chinese have never offered any official explanation for this.

This has left many media outlets and fans feeling regretful.

After all, Prudential Stadium has been the most dream football temple in everyone's mind ever since it was built!
On the afternoon before the Champions League final, Yang Cheng led his team to the Berlin Olympic Stadium for a pre-match training session to familiarize themselves with the venue, and he was not entirely satisfied with some of the stadium's facilities.

Of course, it won't be too bad either.

The venue and facilities are relatively well-preserved to be able to host the Champions League final.

The players are very familiar with the field, so they all know what to practice during training.

For many of the Chinese players at Beswain, how many times have they played in the Champions League final already?
During training, Yang Cheng saw Adam Crozier.

So he handed over the training to Flick and Brian Kidd and went to the sidelines.

“Everything is arranged,” Adam Crozier reported.

According to the schedule, a pre-match press conference will be held later.

Yang Cheng is going to announce the 18-man roster and something about tomorrow's game.

But that's not Yang Cheng's focus today.

His focus today is to talk about Platini, UEFA, and FIFA.

This is a trap he set last year.

He had a very unpleasant falling out with Platini back then, and it all came down to what happened today.

Given the nature of media reporters, they will definitely seize the opportunity to ask Yang Cheng for his opinion on the whole matter.

The media has been making a huge fuss these past few days, with Platini and Blatter's public spat providing plenty of entertainment for fans.

But, what's the use?

The answer is, it doesn't work!

So far, no influential figure in the industry has come forward to offer their opinion.

Therefore, the media lamented: Football is dead!
In fact, it is not difficult to understand.

No one can control FIFA and UEFA.

They're exchanging barbs from afar; who dares to step forward and voice their opinion?

They may criticize each other normally, but in this matter, whoever takes the wrong side will be dealt with terribly by these two big shots once they turn around!

Therefore, those notoriously outspoken people in the industry have stopped talking now.

Everyone in this industry is shrewd and capable; none of them are simple-minded.

“I think you should reconsider; there’s no need for you to get involved yourself,” Adam Crozier advised.

"Or, I can do these things."

This is a setup to make Yang Cheng take the blame!
Yang Cheng smiled and patted Adam Crozier on the shoulder, "What you said doesn't carry enough weight!"

That's true!
Who is Yang Cheng?
The world's number one football coach, a three-time Champions League winner, and currently aiming for a fourth consecutive title.

Tomorrow is the Champions League final!

At this moment, every word Yang Cheng says will be transmitted to every corner of the world by the media around the globe at the fastest speed.

This is exactly what Yang Cheng wanted to achieve!
“But I’m afraid that if Platini and Blatterton make a move, we’ll be in great danger!” Adam Crozier said.

If he's the one to step in, and things really don't go well, the worst that can happen is we fire him.

Given Yang Cheng's prestige and connections, both Blatter and Platini would have to give him face.

And that was the end of it.

"I'm not the kind of person who would casually sacrifice my colleagues or subordinates. Besides, if I'm going to do something, I'll do it like a lion hunting a rabbit, going all out and leaving them no chance to recover!"

After a pause, Yang Cheng turned around and comforted Adam Crozier.

Nothing more than that; these two guys are just bluffing paper tigers.

But in the eyes of Adam Crozier, Xia Qing, and everyone else, they are indeed quite weak right now, but they are by no means paper tigers!

On the contrary, they are the fiercest tigers in world football!

For the past few decades, who has been able to restrain them?
At this moment, standing up and publicly confronting them may win everyone's approval, but what is the cost?

does it worth?
Being a hero isn't easy!

But Yang Cheng always seemed so confident, as if he was certain of winning.

"By the way, David Gill also took a moment to tell me a few words. FIFA and UEFA are in a mess right now. Platini and Infantino haven't even arrived in Berlin yet, and they're frantically trying to put out fires everywhere."

"He was startled when he heard that you were going to personally participate, thinking it was too risky, and asked me to persuade you against it."

Yang Cheng nodded slightly. "He does still have some conscience."

Based on this alone, Yang Cheng felt that he had not misjudged David Gill.

I wouldn't call him upright, but at least we could be friends.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

After a pause, Yang Cheng smiled confidently again, "You've worked with me for so many years, don't you know me?"

"Someone as afraid of death as me, would I dare to personally take to the battlefield if I wasn't confident?"

Yang Cheng also had his own plans.

At that moment, no one dared to speak.

Therefore, the person who stands up and speaks out at this time will be admired by everyone!
As for danger...

Are two people on the verge of death dangerous for Yang Cheng?

……

Just as Yang Cheng had predicted.

Although it was an all-English Premier League final, this Champions League final still attracted the attention of media and fans worldwide.

Media reporters from all over the world packed the press conference hall at the Berlin Olympic Stadium.

When Yang Cheng walked in with a smile, a round of enthusiastic applause broke out.

Guardiola had already held a press conference before him.

Interestingly, the Champions League trophy will be displayed in Manchester City's dressing room until tomorrow's final.

This has always been a tradition in the Champions League.

UEFA will invite media, fans, stars and other celebrities from around the world to attend the event.

This is a super IP, and every day a lot of people try to ride its coattails.

Many fans will be coming to visit, so the Champions League trophy will be temporarily placed in a locker room.

This time it was placed in Manchester City's dressing room, and it featured Messi's jersey.

When asked by reporters for his thoughts, Yang Cheng smiled and said he didn't care.

"They can only be kept until tomorrow evening at most. Starting tomorrow evening, we can sleep with them."

Everyone present burst into laughter.

There wasn't much suspense regarding the 18-man rosters for both teams.

In Yang Cheng's previous life, the reason why Guardiola made some inexplicable decisions before the Champions League final was mainly because he was unsure of himself.

To put it bluntly, he lacks confidence in a certain aspect of his team.

Especially in the attacking third.

But now, he has stars like Messi, Aguero, Reus, and David Silva, making him a formidable force.

Under these circumstances, Guardiola won't make any rash decisions.

Yang Cheng's press conferences are always held in a cheerful atmosphere.

Of course, it's inevitable that some media reporters will ask some relatively sensitive questions.

But it's usually done step by step.

For example, they first asked why the Chinese-owned Prudential Stadium in Baswater did not bid to host the Champions League final.
This is actually a test.

Whether Yang Cheng answers or not, and the content of his answer, will affect their next questions.

Yang Cheng was fully aware of this.

But he still hesitated for a moment, sighed, and gave a bitter smile.

"Actually, before I came in, our public relations director and the club's assistant kept advising me to be careful and not to fall into the trap you set."

The audience burst into laughter again.

But Yang Cheng's expression quickly turned serious.

"But I still want to talk about this."

"First of all, I am very grateful to the media and fans for their positive feedback on our Prudential Stadium. Thank you so much!"

"When our stadium officially opened, hosting the Champions League final was already on the agenda. As everyone knows, our Mayor of London, Mr. Ken Livingstone, said that he would fully support us."

Everyone nodded.

These things were all in the news at the time.

"Why hasn't it been done after several years? There are actually many reasons."

Yang Cheng paused deliberately at this point, exhaled, and looked somewhat troubled.

"As everyone knows, UEFA has very high requirements for stadiums hosting the Champions League final, including capacity, hardware and software facilities, broadcasting conditions, the city where the stadium is located, transportation, hotel facilities, and so on."

"These aren't problems for us, right?"

Everyone nodded.

The Prudential Stadium, owned by Chinese at Basworth Field, is located in the heart of London's most bustling and vibrant West End, which also boasts excellent transport links.

"Many people even know that during the Champions League final, there is about a two-week period during which we need to remove all the sponsors' logos from the stadium and replace them with those of the UEFA-designated sponsors."

“These are not really problems for us. All our sponsors, including Prudential Insurance, support us in hosting the Champions League final. They even want to cover up the illuminated stadium sign at the very top of our stadium and the road signs outside Prudential Plaza.”

"These are not really problems."

Hearing this, everyone was puzzled.

If these aren't problems, then what are?
"In fact, we have been in contact with UEFA several times, and their requirements are not limited to these. They have made it clear to us that if we are to host this event, our stadium will need to be renovated."

"The rectification involves many aspects, including some of our stands, our roof, and some of our stadium facilities, not just simple field layout."

"Their demand was that they have exclusive use of the stadium for those two weeks."

"As everyone knows, we hold all sorts of commercial events at the stadium every month, every week, or even every two or three days. We have signed commercial contracts for all of these."

"If we comply with UEFA's requirements, then we will be in breach of contract and we will need to compensate them for their losses."

"Of course, since we can prepare two years in advance, the losses will be relatively smaller, but we estimate that it is still a very large sum, at least eight figures."

Eight figures lost in half a month?
Is this stadium making that much money now?

"But guess how much UEFA paid for the exclusive use of this stadium for half a month?"

Everyone at the scene was silent.

"Including all the renovations, compensation to sponsors and partners, and the decorations around the stadium, UEFA only provided a subsidy of 100 million euros for all of this, and that's all!"

Everyone present gasped in surprise.

That's incredibly stingy!
“When we communicated with UEFA, they were very domineering and forcefully told us that hosting the Champions League final was an honor for any stadium, an honor for the entire city, and an honor for our club…”

"When my colleagues relayed these words, I just told them to get lost!"

"We provided the best and most advanced football stadium in the world. It took us several years and over a billion pounds to build, and its location is the best in the world, in the best city in the world..."

"And then you condescendingly say, 'This is your charity to us?'"

When Yang Cheng got to this point, he chuckled coldly and stopped talking.

This is why the Chinese in Baswater have been slow to host the Champions League final.

Everyone present understood Yang Cheng's decision.

Does Prudential Stadium, located in the heart of London's West End, really need these?

Does London need your Champions League final to attract visitors?
This was a test, but Yang Cheng had said enough.

The media reporters naturally sensed his resentment and immediately began to press him for answers.

After a few questions, the topic naturally became more and more sensitive.

Finally, The New York Times from the United States asked a question that interested media outlets worldwide.

How does Yang Cheng view the series of farces that have occurred between FIFA and UEFA in recent times?
As soon as the question was posed, Yang Cheng immediately smiled.

"The trap you've dug for me is getting bigger and bigger. Look at our PR manager, he keeps waving me away, telling me not to fall into it."

Everyone present looked in the direction of Yang Cheng's gesture, but they couldn't clearly see whether anyone was actually waving their hand.

But everyone laughed.

"To be honest, I shouldn't talk about this sensitive topic, and nobody wants to talk about it now."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The world of football is now keeping quiet about this topic, choosing to protect itself.

"But I feel that this is not right!"

Yang Cheng's words roused everyone present.

"My only feeling about this series of farces orchestrated by FIFA and UEFA recently is disgrace!"

"I feel ashamed that not a single person dared to stand up and express their thoughts during this period of time!"

"As far as I know, many of my colleagues and friends are privately very angry and dissatisfied with these things."

"But why are you afraid to speak up?"

"Because I'm afraid of retaliation!"

Yang Cheng's words caused an uproar throughout the room.

That's already very straightforward.

"But I think if we are dissatisfied with the status quo, then we should take the initiative to stand up, make our voices heard, and try to change it, instead of remaining silent."

“I know that many people feel the pressure, and I understand that completely. In fact, when I came here, I promised my colleagues that I would try my best to restrain myself and not express my opinions.”

"But that's not right!"

Yang Cheng has been repeatedly emphasizing right and wrong!
"I don't understand. Things have already developed to this point, when all the fans in the world, including those children, know that FIFA and UEFA made mistakes, and know that Blatter, Platini, Infantino and others were corrupt, why is no one able to do anything about them?"

"In 2015, is there still a lawless place? Is there really no way to punish them?"

"If so, then it is a disgrace to football!"

The scene was completely silent.

Everyone wanted Yang Cheng to talk.

But no one expected that he would name names directly and speak so frankly.

“I saw the Spanish news that during the election campaign, Villar directly threatened his opponent over the phone.”

He said: "My referee, my coach..."

"My God, are all these his? Who does he think he is to be so arrogant?"

"If this were my home country, anyone who dared to be so arrogant and domineering would be investigated the next day. But now in Spain, no one is standing up to say anything."

"And Blatter, Valcke, Platini, Infantino..."

"The law seems to have no effect on these crazy clamorers."

"I think this is a disgrace, not only a disgrace to our football community, but also a disgrace to European law, and even the law of the world!"

"Blatter explained that FIFA needs evolution, not revolution..."

Yang Cheng burst out laughing.

Do you know when this Berlin Olympic Stadium, where we are now, was built?

Construction began in 1934 and the building was put into use in 1936.

"In the past 80 years, the stadium has undergone two major renovations, including the addition of a roof in 2004 for the German World Cup, which cost more than 200 million euros."

"But why is it that this stadium, which clearly has 75,000 seats, only opens 70,000 seats for the Champions League final and some other major events?"

"The reason is simple: the stadium was built with outdated design concepts, and many restrictions have led to problems with the current seating arrangements for fans. For example, some fans are behind the pillars, and some even have no view of the stadium at all."

"So we had no choice but to compromise and reduce the number of seats."

"I think the same applies to FIFA and UEFA now."

"Of course they want to keep evolving, constantly patching things up and fixing them, because it's always the same people coming and going, it's all their people, so what can that change?"

"Just like this Berlin Olympic Stadium, as long as the main framework of the stadium remains unchanged and the columns are still there, the stadium is destined to be confined."

Yang Cheng's words have clearly expressed his attitude.

For FIFA and UEFA at present, a thorough reform is necessary to break the deep-rooted alliances of the past and create a more transparent FIFA and UEFA!
Regarding the upcoming reforms, Yang Cheng also offered some preliminary suggestions.

For example, the power of FIFA and UEFA presidents and officials needs to be constrained.

The first step is to limit their terms of office and reform the electoral system.

Yang Cheng believes that UEFA should pay more attention to the power of clubs.

Club competitions are the main source of UEFA's revenue, yet not a single club representative has been able to get a seat on the UEFA Executive Committee.

Is this reasonable?

There's also the level of financial transparency of FIFA and UEFA.

"I read the report in the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung and I was shocked. More than 8 million US dollars, such a huge sum of money, has quietly fallen into the pockets of some people."

"I would like to ask whether FIFA's financial processes and oversight systems are merely a formality?"

"Is FIFA the global football federation, or just Blatter's personal FIFA?" "And UEFA, is it the European football federation, or just Platini's UEFA?"

Yang Cheng almost roared out his question.

"I am a businessman, but I am also a head coach. Football is the noble cause I have dedicated my life to."

"But in my view of football, it absolutely does not include the likes of Blatter, Valcke, Platini, Infantino, and Villar. I will never accept world football and European football led by such a group of people!"

"I also hope that everyone at FIFA and UEFA can reflect on this."

"Why, after all this time, has not a single media outlet or fan raised the question: Could FIFA and UEFA be wronged? Could Blatter, Platini, and others be innocent?"

"no!"

"not a single one!"

"This is itself a judgment from the fans!"

"Here, I would also like to take this opportunity, on behalf of myself and all the Chinese people at Beswater, to demand that FIFA and UEFA make thorough reforms and come up with a reform plan and timetable as soon as possible!"

"Only through a complete self-revolution, a thorough break with past corruption and dark forces, a do-or-die determination, and acceptance of scrutiny from all media and fans, exposing power to the sunlight, can FIFA and UEFA regain the fans' approval!"

"This is me, and this is the attitude of the Chinese people at Baswater!"

The entire press conference erupted in chaos!

……

declare war!

This was the news report that Onefootball, a well-known German football software, pushed to football fans around the world that evening.

The content is about Yang Cheng's press conference at the Berlin Olympic Stadium.

"Everyone who attended this press conference thought it was just the Champions League final."

"Unexpectedly, Yang Cheng's indignant questioning on the spot seemed more like a declaration of war against the corrupt elements in FIFA and UEFA!"

The Times of London also published a commentary immediately, suggesting that Yang Cheng's words clearly reflected a long period of suppressed emotions, as the Chinese players at Bethwaite had suffered considerable "humiliation" at the hands of UEFA over the past few years.

The most well-known incident worldwide is that UEFA President Platini publicly criticized Gareth Bale before the FIFA Ballon d'Or voting, which greatly displeased Yang Cheng.

Although the matter ultimately ended with Platini "begging for forgiveness," a grudge had already been formed between the two sides.

“Yang Cheng has never been a head coach favored by FIFA and UEFA. For example, he has almost never attended UEFA’s elite coaching summit.”

“FIFA and UEFA have held many events, exchanges, and even award ceremonies, but Yang Cheng has attended very few of them.”

"Over the years, he has been known in the industry as the least cooperative head coach with FIFA and UEFA, so his team has received a lot of special treatment."

"This time, when the whole world chose to remain silent, it was Yang Cheng who bravely stood up and said what everyone wanted to say but dared not say."

He said he could only represent himself and the Chinese people in Bethwater.

"But in fact, he represents all conscientious football professionals, football media, and fans around the world!"

"Everyone has been suffering under the thumb of FIFA and UEFA for a long time!"

The Guardian even featured Yang Cheng on its cover and published a front-page headline.

His title was: Hero!
The Guardian believes that Yang Cheng's act of stepping forward represents the conscience of football!
"He made no secret of the fact that he was not noble; he was just a businessman and a football coach."

"But it is precisely because of his lack of nobility that he is all the more precious!"

The Guardian stated that Yang Cheng's appeal reflects the voice of countless practitioners in the industry.

However, they may be of low status and their voices may be limited by various social obligations or constraints, which makes them unwilling to speak out.

But Yang Cheng chose to stand up!
"Actually, there was another side story."

"After the press conference, UEFA officials asked the hundreds of media reporters present not to publish Yang Cheng's remarks. The public relations director of Besworth China was also very anxious and said that this was going to cause big trouble."

"But Yang Cheng stood on the stage and told everyone with absolute certainty, 'Report!'"

"Because he wants fans all over the world to see this darkness, and at the same time, he wants everyone to see that even in the darkest night, there are still people shining!"

"Football is not dead, there is still hope!"

The New York Times also published a commentary that evening, arguing that the corruption and shady dealings within FIFA and UEFA have long caused immense suffering for everyone in the industry.

Everyone was angry but dared not speak out.

"Yang Cheng played the role of a whistleblower this time!"

"This world-class head coach felt obligated to stand up and say these words."

"Because if even someone at his level doesn't dare to speak up, how can you expect others to speak up?"

"This brave Chinese man chose to declare war on the corrupt FIFA and UEFA!"

"He wants to disrupt the international football order of the past few decades!"

However, many media outlets and fans believe that Yang Cheng's decision to speak out at this moment is truly admirable.

But the outcome could be very dangerous.

Given Blatter and Platini's consistent approach, Yang Cheng and his Chinese partners at Bethwater are likely to face extremely severe suppression, or even "special treatment."

"Putting everything else aside, just for the fact that he dared to stand up and say these words at this time, I support Yang Cheng! I support the Chinese from Bethwater!"

"That's right, Yang Cheng, well done!"

"Blatter and Platini are truly shameless. Do they really think no one can deal with them?"

"I support Yang Cheng as FIFA president to sweep away all filth and corruption!"

"The guy upstairs, let him be the UEFA president first. He's more familiar with the European business!"

"Yang Cheng is the most courageous head coach I've ever watched football. He dared to stand up to FIFA and UEFA at this time. He is the first person I sincerely admire!"

"This is the Yang Cheng and the Chinese people at Bethwater who we have been supporting all these years!"

"Yes, even if we face suppression from FIFA and UEFA, we will support Yang Cheng and the Chinese from Beswater!"

Overnight, all the media and fans around the world were reporting on it.

Yang Cheng's voice spread to every corner of the earth overnight.

He directly exposed all the scandals involving FIFA and UEFA to the public.

His appeal received unanimous recognition and support from all media outlets and fans.

Yes.

Everyone has always known what FIFA and UEFA, Blatter and Platini, and others have done.

But in the past, they had no way to punish them or expose them.

But the fans have discerning eyes.

Therefore, as the matter has escalated to this point, we haven't heard even the slightest voice in defense of them.

This is a trial!
……

"He's gone mad! Yang Cheng has completely gone mad!"

At FIFA headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland, Blatter angrily pushed aside a stack of documents in front of him, stood up from his seat, and roared furiously.

"Why didn't he go play in the Champions League final instead of talking nonsense?"

"What business is it of his if FIFA and UEFA are involved?"

Blatt is indeed quite old, but when he gets angry, he still exudes a powerful aura.

He truly is the "Emperor" who has ruled the world of football for over a decade!
Even now, he still refuses to accept any provocation from anyone.

“Yang Cheng must have done it on purpose. He took advantage of this opportunity, and now it’s spread all over the world overnight. We can’t suppress it even if we want to.” Jerome Valcke felt helpless.

This is the most troublesome thing!
According to Blatter's previous plans, no matter how much he and Platini quarreled, they would eventually have some common interests.

Once the FIFA presidential election results are in, the two can sit down and talk again.

At worst, Blatter can simply quit after his new term ends.

But now, with Yang Cheng's meddling, things have suddenly become much more complicated.

"What exactly does this bastard want by jumping out at this time?" While angry, Blatt couldn't help but ponder Yang Cheng's purpose.

A sharp glint flashed in Valcke's eyes. "Our initial guess is that it's related to his past feud with Platini."

"Damn it!" Blatt cursed angrily.

But it's unclear whether they're criticizing Yang Cheng or Platini.

"But it doesn't matter. Whatever his purpose is, since he dares to come out, he should be prepared to accept our anger and punishment."

Blatter took a deep breath as he said this, "Let him jump around for two more days. Two days later, the FIFA presidential election results will be out, I'll be re-elected, and then I'll deal with him slowly!"

Although FIFA has difficulty directly intervening in UEFA's work, especially in the management of clubs, Blatter still has many ways to deal with Yang Cheng if he really wants to.

Especially when he asked all his subordinates to take microscopes and slowly examine the Chinese in Bethwater, many problems would be exposed.

As one of the clubs in world football that places the greatest emphasis on legality and compliance, Yang Cheng and the Chinese at Beswathe have certainly done everything within their power.

However, many of FIFA's rules and regulations are inherently vague.

If FIFA seizes a few opportunities, the Chinese in Beswain will be in deep trouble.

"Jerome, go and arrange for people to do a good job of studying the Chinese in Bethwater."

If he is re-elected, he will target Yang Cheng and his Chinese associates at Baswater!

Valcke also felt that this was the right way.

……

Platini, Infantino, and Villar arrived in Berlin at noon on the day of the Champions League final.

They heard the news last night, and Platini was so angry that he couldn't sleep all night.

Upon arriving in Berlin, I discovered that the news had already spread all over the world.

It has already been widely discussed online.

This gave Platini a real headache.

"That bastard is trying to kill me!" The UEFA president sat in the car on his way to the hotel, struggling to breathe.

“I think he came prepared,” Infantino said.

“Look at the ideas he came up with; they weren’t improvised on the spot, but rather ideas he had thought about beforehand.”

"So that means this bastard has been wanting to rebel for a long time!" Bilal gritted his teeth.

This news not only involves him, but also his son, Gorka Bilal.

Now, his son's future is completely ruined.

Yang Cheng even mentioned his name yesterday, which made Bilal hate him even more.

"What is the attitude of the outside world now?" Platini is more concerned about the overall situation.

"I can't see clearly," Infantino shook his head.

"There is a lot of anxiety within UEFA right now, and many things can't be done. We can only get preliminary information that, at least so far, no one has come forward to support Yang Cheng."

"However, I worry that the big clubs might jump in; they won't let this opportunity pass them by."

The elite teams that Infantino was referring to were the former G14 teams.

After being broken up by UEFA, it was reorganized into the European Football Club Association under the UEFA umbrella.

Now, the association includes hundreds of clubs across Europe.

But it no longer has the same vigor it had during the G14 era.

However, those G14 teams are still quite troublesome, and they often cause trouble for UEFA.

"With Yang Cheng taking the lead now, these guys are probably getting restless."

A ruthless glint flashed in Platini's eyes.

"But it doesn't matter. We were able to take them down once before, and we can take them down a second time now."

"Keep a close eye on their every move. Any team, no matter who they are, that dares to show their face at this time should not blame me for finding a chance to deal with them!"

At this point, Platini glanced at Villar and said, "You should also tell those two Spanish teams not to cause trouble at this time, understand?"

Bilal certainly knew who Platini was referring to.

Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​you know.

Just then, Infantino received a phone call and all he heard was a series of "uh-huh" responses.

After hanging up, he looked at Platini with a solemn expression.

"I just received news that a brief press conference was held at 10 Downing Street in London, England."

Platini closed his eyes, his brows furrowing even more deeply.

"What did you say?"

A spokesperson for the British Prime Minister's Office stated that they support the legitimate demands of Yang Cheng and Bethwaite, and require FIFA and UEFA to provide an explanation to fans worldwide as soon as possible and to conduct a thorough overhaul and reform.

"Damn it!" Platini cursed through gritted teeth.

This is the first national government to stand up and express its support for Yang Cheng and Bethwater.

But actually, upon closer reflection, it's not surprising.

why?
Because the British government has long been extremely dissatisfied with FIFA and UEFA.

The reason why the FA chairman has changed several times in the past few years is because of the bidding for the 2018 World Cup.

The British government was furious that FIFA and UEFA supported Russia hosting the 2018 World Cup instead of the UK.

It's perfectly normal for them to stand up and support Yang Cheng and the Chinese from Bethwater.

After all, the Chinese are from the top powerhouse in the Premier League!
"In addition, 10 Downing Street revealed that Prime Minister Cameron has changed his schedule at the last minute and will attend tonight's Champions League final."

Needless to say, this is a strong show of support for Yang Cheng and the Chinese at Baswater!
In addition to the Mayor of London and the British Royal Family, who had already confirmed their participation, it is estimated that the Football Association, the Premier League, and the Department for Sport will also make statements in succession.

Yang Cheng's fire has really caught fire!
"We need to make peace with Blatter," Platini sighed and said calmly.

"Now, we need to join forces with Blatt to eliminate the traitors within our ranks!"

By the end, Platini was practically gritting his teeth.

Right now, he wished he could tear Yang Cheng to pieces.

……

"Yang Cheng is playing with fire!"

In his office at the Bernabéu Stadium in Spain, Florentino Pérez also saw the latest news.

British Prime Minister David Cameron made a last-minute decision to travel to the Berlin Olympic Stadium to watch the Champions League final.

Furthermore, a spokesperson for 10 Downing Street has clearly stated their support for Yang Cheng and the Chinese, Bethwater.

Anyone could see that this was tantamount to giving Yang Cheng and the Chinese from Bethwater a layer of armor.

"Will it work?" José Sánchez asked with concern.

Florentino shook his head. "It's hard to say, nobody knows."

"Should we still hold a press conference to show our support for them?" José Sánchez asked again.

Florentino shook his head. "Since we've already waited this long and missed the opportunity, let's just wait and see."

After a pause, Florentino sighed with a touch of melancholy.

"Unexpectedly, Yang Cheng, who usually keeps a low profile, will suddenly bring us such a big surprise this time. He really went all out this time!"

José Sánchez was a little confused. "Chairman, do you think it's really okay for him to step forward like this and openly confront FIFA and UEFA?"

"Even with the support of the British government, it would be difficult for them to withstand the combined pressure from FIFA and UEFA, wouldn't it?"

Putting aside everything else, if you find a single mistake and issue a hefty fine, preventing you from making transfers and signings for two or three years, can you still maintain the status of the Chinese elite club at Besworth?

The key point is that as long as Blatter and Platini don't fall, another fine will be issued in two or three years.

If they keep playing like this, the Chinese at Besworth will eventually be driven to their doom.

Yang Cheng has now offended not only Blatter and Platini, but all the old forces led by them.

This group of people are all part of a community of shared interests.

Destroying someone's financial path is like killing one's parents!
"The risks are indeed very high, but the rewards are also great. Look at him now, almost the whole world follows him and the Chinese from Bethwater. He has won all the praise and applause."

"If he can withstand the ensuing retaliation, he will truly be a god!"

When Florentino saw that José Sánchez still seemed a little confused, he immediately smiled.

"Do you know why Real Madrid has always been recognized as the most unique and top-tier club in Europe?"

José Sanchez didn't quite understand and shook his head.

"Sixty years ago, we took the lead and led many European teams to rebel against UEFA and establish the European Champions Cup!"

As Real Madrid's general manager, José Sanchez is certainly aware of this history.

"Many people say that this is the foundation of a wealthy family!"

"We have been the leaders in European football for 60 years. After the Champions League was established, we won five consecutive titles and became the number one powerhouse."

"Since then, through daily accumulation and gradual development, we have become the Real Madrid we are today!"

"But in the final analysis, it all comes down to that rebellion 60 years ago."

"This is a legacy, a consensus, and above all, a habit!"

As Florentino said this, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

“Now, Yang Cheng and his Chinese partners at Bethwater are doing what Chairman Santiago Bernabeu did 60 years ago.”

It's something I wanted to do, but hesitated to do.

Florentino felt somewhat disappointed.

This was originally something Real Madrid should have done.

José Sanchez immediately understood what the chairman meant.

Sixty years ago, Real Madrid led the rebellion, winning five consecutive Champions League titles and establishing themselves as the world's premier club.

Sixty years later, the Chinese are leading the rebellion at Beswathe, and now they have won three consecutive Champions League titles and are aiming for a fourth, with the goal of becoming the number one powerhouse.

The difference is that 60 years ago, Real Madrid was the top club in Europe due to limitations in its reach and broadcasting media.

But now, the Chinese at Beswater aim to build the world's number one powerhouse.

"Right now, all the flowers and applause have been given to Yang Cheng and his Chinese from Bethwater. Even if we step forward now, it would only be to curry favor with them. Let's wait and see."

Florentino also seemed somewhat helpless when he said this.

On a rational level, he genuinely hoped that Yang Cheng and the Chinese team at Besworth could succeed and withstand the ensuing series of retaliations from FIFA and UEFA.

This is a good thing for everyone.

From a personal perspective, he is quite complicated.

Because he always felt that this was something he and Real Madrid should do.

But no matter what, he had to admit that Yang Cheng had played this move quite brilliantly.

They overwhelmed FIFA and UEFA with no way to defend themselves!

But can he and his team really withstand the ensuing furious retaliation?
