I have a debt of 3 trillion, and my creditors are begging me not to die.

Chapter 111 The battle is over, the losers surrender to Yang Chen
The Premier League office immediately convened an emergency meeting of club owners, and Premier League chief Brittan tried to calm them down and not let them get so excited.

But the club owners are not so good-tempered. It's their wealth that is lost. How can they not be excited?

The club owners gave the Premier League office an ultimatum directly, either do what they say or shut down.

The losses from the suspension of the Premier League would be huge, and sponsors and broadcasters would not agree with it, let alone the fans.

Football fans in Europe and America are notoriously crazy. Group fights are a piece of cake for them, and some even dare to send killers to shoot referees.

Ms. Brittan just took up the position of head of the Premier League this year. If she were to shut down the league, she would definitely be forced to resign before the end of the year, even though there are still more than two months left in the year.

Brittan could not bear the pressure from the club owners and had to quickly report the situation to the FA.

English Football Association chief executive Billingham personally received Brittan.

"Ms. Brittan, can't you hold it down for a moment?" asked Blingham.

Brittan replied speechlessly: "How can I pressure? What can I use to pressure? Those bosses almost ate me up, and the shareholders of various clubs outside the meeting room are also eyeing me covetously. They gave me two choices, either suspend the league or do what they want and force FIFA to lift the restrictions on Sihai Bingquan. What do you think I should do? I'm throwing the problem to you now, you solve it."

Bringham was also speechless, and the two of them remained silent.

After a long while, Blingham said, "Okay, I'll contact the heads of the FAs or associations of other European countries to hear what they mean. You go back and appease the clubs. The games still need to be played. Don't stop because of this."

Brittan nodded and said, "Okay! I get it."

After sending Brittan away, Bringham immediately called Diallo, the head of the French Football Association.

"Hey, how are you doing? There's a commotion over here, and they're forcing me by suspending the league." Bringham said bluntly.

Diallo immediately responded, "Don't mention it. I'm also in a turmoil here. I'm on the scene to appease the owners and shareholders of various clubs, but it's no use. Their stock prices are still falling. There is no other way except to delist and cancel the short-selling mechanism. What do you think?"

Bringham hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "I thought about it, and I think what the club owners said is right. The Dragons drinking water has nothing to do with us, at least not in our football field. Even if the Dragons make it to the World Cup, they have only narrowed the gap with the whites and blacks in terms of physical strength. The final victory or defeat still depends on technology and tactics. We don't need to be used as a gun by FIFA. What do you think?"

Diallo immediately replied: "I think so too. How about... we contact the heads of other European football associations to communicate? The manipulator behind this matter is Eagle Fed. They are dissatisfied with Yang Chen's casual shorting of Eagle Company stocks, so they came up with this trick of borrowing a knife to kill. We have no control over whether FIFA and other sports organizations are willing to be the knife, and we won't be the knife."

Bringham agreed with Diallo's words and immediately said, "That's right! Let's do this. We will immediately contact the heads of the football associations of other European countries."

After a phone call, the heads of the football associations of major European countries reached a consensus, and then they all issued announcements in the name of their national football associations and football federations.

English Football Association: After our scientific and rigorous investigation, we found that Sihai Ice Spring does not contain any banned ingredients. It is just a very ordinary functional mineral water, no different from Red Bull, Gatorade, etc., but it is only effective for Chinese people. But this cannot be a reason for us to discriminate against this drinking water. We did not investigate clearly before and issued the relevant wrong announcement. Here we express our sincere apologies to Sihai Group. At the same time, we call on FIFA to correct the wrong announcement immediately to make football purer and fairer. Within three days, if we do not see relevant announcements or news reports, we will refuse to participate in any events organized by FIFA, including the Olympics, the World Cup, etc. In addition, the English Football Association will no longer accept the jurisdiction of FIFA.

As soon as Yingzi took the lead, other European football associations immediately followed suit.

French Football Federation: After careful investigation, we found that we were misled by FIFA and other international organizations, so we issued the wrong announcement before. Here, we express our sincere apologies to the Four Evils Group and urge FIFA and other related organizations to correct their wrong behavior immediately. In addition, the three major broadcasters who misled us, Medibo, Sky Sports, and Bein Media, must also correct their behavior immediately. Otherwise, Ligue 1 will terminate its cooperation with these three broadcasters and look for other broadcasters to cooperate. If our just declaration is not met, the French Football Federation will no longer accept the jurisdiction of FIFA and refuse to line up for any international competitions. People who love football all over the world should resist this behavior. Football is football and should not be a tool for some people to satisfy their selfish desires.

Spain, Germany, France, Italy...

A number of European national football associations and FAs have issued similar announcements in their official capacity.

MediaVideo, Sky Sports, and BeIN Media saw that the situation was hopeless and their share prices had fallen by more than half. They had no choice but to follow suit and issue announcements, while forcing FIFA to immediately lift the ban on Four Seasons Ice Springs. Otherwise, these three broadcasters would contact other broadcasters to refuse to broadcast FIFA-organized events to audiences in Europe, America, and some parts of Asia.

On the other hand, Coca-Cola, Adidas, Sony, Visa, Hyundai Motor, Nike and others have also communicated well. Several companies jointly made a request to FIFA, requiring FIFA to immediately issue an announcement to lift the ban and express special apologies to Sihai Group and Yang Chen. If they fail to do so, all sponsorships will be cancelled immediately.

If sponsors don't pay, the broadcaster with the largest coverage area stops broadcasting, and the whole of Europe stops participating, then there will be no need for FIFA to exist, and no one can afford the consequences.

The head of FIFA, Fantino, quickly contacted Cohen, the head of the Bald Eagle Football Association, explained to Cohen the problems that FIFA was currently facing, and made it clear that they could not follow Cohen's wishes to restrict the Dragon National Team from drinking Sihai Ice Spring.

Cohen is also in a dilemma now, as big brands such as Nike are forcing him to force FIFA to lift the ban on Si Hai Bingquan.

"It's not up to me to decide on this matter... Alas..." Cohen said helplessly.

Fantino immediately said, "Who's in charge? Go ask them quickly. So many people have lost more than half of their wealth because of this incident. Can the person in charge you mentioned bear everyone's losses? If he can bear everyone's losses, we will continue to fight Yang Chen. If he can't bear everyone's losses, then he should be more righteous and stop forcing us. Okay?"

Cohen said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I get it. Hang up."

Cohen hung up the phone and immediately called Powell, the big boss behind the scenes.

Cohen got straight to the point and said, "Hey, Mr. Powell, I can't handle the pressure anymore. Sponsors are putting pressure on me, broadcasters are putting pressure on me, even FIFA is putting pressure on me. Unless you bear the loss of their wealth, they will immediately compromise and admit defeat to Sihai Group and Yang Chen."

Powell has been following the progress of this matter, and he is also depressed now. He originally thought that it would be impossible for Yang Chen to succeed in shorting so many companies at once, but the fact is that the stock prices of all the companies that Yang Chen shorted plummeted, and no matter what methods the executives and shareholders used, they could not stop the stock price from falling. How did Yang Chen do it?

“What a bunch of idiots. So many people working together can’t deal with Yang Chen. Their abilities are worthy of their loss of wealth.” Powell said angrily.

Cohen immediately said, "Well... Mr. Powell, please stop saying such things now. There is no need for us to offend so many people at once. I think... how about... forget it?"

Powell is very reluctant to admit defeat, but he has no better way to continue to fight. He can't really freeze the accounts of the five major banks in China or cancel the short-selling mechanism in the stock market, right?

Regardless of the consequences, the investment institutions of the Bald Eagle family will never agree to this, as they still need to make money by short selling.

"Okay, okay, you guys handle it yourself, no need to ask me." Powell said unhappily and hung up the phone immediately.

Cohen understood what Powell meant and immediately called FIFA head Fantino back.

"Mr. Fantino, you guys handle it yourselves. I'm also going to issue an announcement to clear up the misunderstanding," Cohen said.

Fantino sighed and said, "Okay, I get it. Alas... After all this trouble, so many people suffered heavy losses, while Yang Chen made a huge profit. I am speechless."

Cohen immediately said: "Alas... No one would have thought that Yang Chen was so powerful. Okay, let's stop talking and get down to business."

The two hung up the phone and went their separate ways.

Cohen immediately ordered his assistant to write an announcement and send it out in the name of the Bald Eagle Football Association.

"The Bald Eagle Football Association does not agree with FIFA's ban on the Dragon National Team from drinking Sihai Bingquan. We have enough data to prove that Sihai Bingquan is just a very common functional beverage, no different from Gatorade, Red Bull, etc. If Sihai Bingquan is banned just because it only has an amplifying effect on Dragon National Team, it obviously violates the principle of fairness and justice. We urge FIFA and other international sports organizations to correct their wrong behavior immediately."

Soon, FIFA's announcement came out.

"Due to staff error, we mistakenly regarded Sihai Bingquan as a prohibited item and mistakenly issued a ban on its use. We formally express our sincerest apologies to the Longguo team, Sihai Bingquan, and Mr. Yang Chen. We are very sorry for the trouble caused to you by our work error. We believe that Sihai Bingquan, Gatorade, Red Bull, etc. are all legal functional drinks and athletes can drink them normally."

FIFA’s announcement quickly became a hot topic on international social media platforms, and netizens from all over the world rushed to watch the fun.

Bald Eagle netizen Jones: So, this earth-shaking battle ended with Yang Chen’s victory, right?
South Korean netizen Huang Xiangyou: Are you kidding me? So many powerful clubs can't beat a Chinese player? Why did FIFA give in and admit defeat? If it doesn't work, ask the Bald Eagle to make the decision. The Bald Eagle is the most powerful country in the world, and no one dares to go against their wishes.

Sakura Country netizen Inoue Shota: Huh? Did Yang Chen really succeed in his counterattack? He is so strong that he can win against so many companies and organizations at the same time.

French netizen Parker: I have seen what a madman is. He made all the European football clubs raise the white flag. Don't mess with him in the future, otherwise you will end up in a very bad situation. The Football Association has admitted defeat, so there is no need to think that other organizations will follow suit.

Philippines Monkey Netizen Su Erlun: I am really angry. Why doesn't the Bald Eagle come out to deal with a Dragon country man who is so arrogant? Can you Europeans and Bald Eagles join forces to deal with him? I just can't stand seeing Dragon country people being so outstanding.

Ami Han, a netizen from India: I admit that Yang Chen is very strong, but he still doesn't have the courage to touch our India's enterprises, because he knows that he will definitely lose miserably. I suggest that FIFA let us India manage it, so that we will not be bullied by Yang Chen.

……

Regardless of whether netizens from different countries accept it or not, they all know in their hearts that Yang Chen won.

When FIFA’s announcement came out, other sports organizations panicked.

FIBA head Al-Thani immediately called FIFA head Infantino.

"No, buddy, are you sure? We issued the ban because we saw you issued it. Now you are on your knees, what should we do?" Al-Sani asked.

Fantino said unhappily: “Go ask the Bald Eagle family what to do. They are the ones behind this matter. It is really shocking that so many capital bosses can’t beat Yang Chen. No, why are you pretending to me? Didn’t the Bald Eagle Family Basketball Association ask you to issue a ban on Sihai Bingquan?” Alsani replied: “They asked me, but I was hesitant at the time. I only made up my mind to follow suit after seeing you issue the ban.”

Fantino said angrily: "What do you mean by that? Do you want me to apologize to you?"

Al-Thani quickly smiled and said, "That's not the case, that's not the case, I was just saying it casually. The Bald Eagle Basketball Association and the NBA president called me and asked me to change the announcement immediately. I was embarrassed at first, but now that your Football Association has changed it, I don't have to be embarrassed anymore."

Fantino: “…”

Fantino was already feeling upset, and Al-Thani's words made him so angry that he immediately hung up the phone.

Al-Thani quickly asked his assistant to write a new announcement, which was then sent out in the name of FIBA.

"After our scientific and careful investigation, the results show that Sihai Ice Spring is a very common mineral water. We put it in the same category as Gatorade, Red Bull, etc. Athletes can drink it normally to quickly recover their physical strength. We express our most sincere apologies to Longguo, especially Mr. Yang Chen, for the previous reckless and erroneous announcement."

Football and basketball are the two most popular sports in the world. FIFA and FIFA are also the two most influential international sports organizations. If these two organizations admit defeat one after another, other international sports organizations will naturally follow suit.

Of course, the biggest reason why other international sports organizations were willing to give in was that their sponsors were worried about being shorted by Yang Chen, and strongly demanded that they lift the ban on Sihai Ice Spring.

The tragic experiences of international giants such as Coca-Cola and well-known European clubs have frightened all major brands. These sponsor shareholders do not want their wealth to shrink by more than 50% in a few days, so surrendering to Yang Chen is the wisest choice.

Badminton Federation, International Swimming Federation, International Table Tennis Federation...

All the sports organizations that had previously issued announcements prohibiting Chinese athletes from drinking Sihai Bingquan have issued new announcements, admitting their mistakes and apologizing, while also acknowledging that Sihai Bingquan, Red Bull, Gatorade and other brands are legal functional beverages.

Afterwards, the CEOs of the companies that were shorted all called Yang Chen immediately.

Nike President Travis Nike called Yang Chen.

"Hey, Mr. Yang, you see, all major organizations have already issued announcements to lift the ban and have expressed their apologies to you. Can you stop shorting our company's stock?" Travis Nike said politely.

Yang Chen smiled and replied: "Oh, I saw it. When the Bald Eagle stock market opens, I will stop shorting Nike and help you buy some back."

Travis Nike immediately said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Yang, thank you, Mr. Yang. There is one thing I want to ask, does the Sihai team have a shoe sponsor?"

Yang Chen replied: "We are in talks with several brands, but nothing has been finalized yet."

Travis Nike immediately said, "Can we, Nike, become the sponsor of the Sihai team? The sponsorship fee is negotiable. I promise to provide at least one exclusive pair of sneakers for each of your main players. And you also know the status of Nike in the global sporting goods industry. We are capable of helping Mr. Yang promote the Sihai team to the global market."

There is nothing wrong with what he said. Domestic brands such as Taan and Lining are barely qualified to compare with Nike in terms of international popularity and market share.

However, Longguo should also have a sports brand that can be famous all over the world. Yang Chen plans to choose one from the existing brands, or simply create a brand of his own and take advantage of the future invincibility of the Four Seas Team to rush to the world.

Yang Chen smiled and said: "Thank you Mr. Nike for your kindness. It's not that you Nike don't have the strength, but I have more ideas."

"Mr. Yang, you should first promote the Longguo brand, or create a brand of your own, right?" Travis Nike asked.

Huh?
The little foreigner is quite smart.

Since he had guessed it, Yang Chen didn't hide it anymore and openly admitted that he did have this idea.

Travis Nike is a shrewd businessman. He knows that once the physical shortcomings of the Four Seas team are made up, there will be unlimited prospects in the future. If he can cooperate with the Four Seas team, he will definitely have a lot of exposure in the future.

Therefore, Travis Nike came up with a very strange idea. Every player has two feet, so one foot should wear the exclusive combat boots launched by Nike for the players, and the other foot should be arranged by Yang Chen for the Longguo brand.

Yang Chen laughed loudly, and said, "How could Nike become a sports goods giant? Your business thinking is really amazing."

Travis Nike immediately smiled and said, "No, no, my business thinking is far behind Mr. Yang. If it were me, I would be helpless in the face of so many bans from international organizations. It is impossible for me to solve the problem as domineeringly as Mr. Yang. So, did Mr. Yang agree?"

Yang Chen smiled and said: "Your method is fine, but it is still uncertain who will get that foot. So, you wait for notification, and I will notify you later on how to compete for that foot. Okay?"

Travis Nike said: "Okay, okay, I'll wait for Mr. Yang's good news. Then I won't bother Mr. Yang anymore, hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen immediately sent a message to Chen Chao.

"Achao, close your Nike position and buy one lot of Nike stock."

Chen Chao immediately replied: Received, will do it right away!
At this time, Adidas President Hebner called Yang Chen.

If the president of Nike can think of cooperating with the Four Seas team, the president of Adidas can naturally think of it as well.

"As long as Mr. Yang agrees, we will pay the Sihai team 1 million euros in endorsement fees every year, and produce at least one exclusive pair of combat boots for each starting player. You can also propose other conditions, and we will do our best to meet them," said Hebner.

Yang Chen smiled and said: "The president of Nike called me just now. They also want to cooperate with us, and they only want the players to wear Nike shoes on one foot. I didn't reply immediately. I wanted to listen to the quotations of several brands before making a decision."

Hebner immediately said, "We can also accept players wearing our brand on one foot and you can do whatever you want with the other foot. Mr. Yang, please consider us and give us a chance."

Yang Chen said very frankly: "I welcome all brands that really want to cooperate, but which brand this foot will be given to depends on the follow-up situation. You wait for my news, okay?"

Hebner quickly said, "Okay, okay. Then I'll wait for Mr. Yang's news. I hope that our Adi Diaosi will have the honor to cooperate with the Sihai team."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen sent another message to Chen Chao.

"Achao, close your position in Adidas, and then buy one lot of Adidas stock."

Chen Chao replied immediately: Received, will do it right away!
Afterwards, Paul, the president of Medibroadcast, the largest and oldest broadcaster in Europe, called Yang Chen.

Paul first apologized to Yang Chen, and then asked for cooperation.

"We want to broadcast the game of the Four Seas team, is that okay?" Paul asked.

Yang Chen was amused and asked, "You are not kidding me, are you? Can you Europeans watch our game? Do you treat it as a comedy?"

Paul quickly said, "No, no, no. The current strength of the Sihai team is not inferior to any European club team. We only broadcast the games of the Sihai team and not the games of other teams. I hope Mr. Yang can help coordinate it, okay?"

Oh my god, who would have thought that one day Dragon Country’s football matches would be brought to Europeans by the biggest broadcaster.

This is a good opportunity to change the world's inherent impression of Dragon Country football, and it can also create an income for the Sihai team. Why not do it?

"Okay, I'll communicate with the Football Association, and someone from the Football Association will contact you later." Yang Chen said.

Paul immediately said happily: "Okay, okay. Wait for good news."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen sent another message to Chen Chao.

"Achao, close the short position that Maidi broadcast, and then buy one lot of stocks."

Chen Chao replied immediately: Received, will do it right away!
Then, Real Madrid's boss Esterillas also called Yang Chen and asked him to immediately stop shorting the two companies under his name.

Yang Chen agreed to his request and ordered Chen Chao to close his short position immediately, and then buy one lot of each of the two companies' tickets.

Then, Esterlias said, "Mr. Yang, I want to organize a friendly match between Real Madrid and Sihai Team. Do you think it is convenient? We can go to Longguo to find you. All the income from tickets and broadcasting fees will be given to you. You only need to arrange accommodation for our players. You don't need to worry about anything else. Is that okay?"

Yang Chen smiled and said, "Of course. However, you must send out the main lineup, don't use substitutes to perfunctorily deal with us."

Esterias immediately said, "Of course, I promise to send out the main lineup to play a friendly match with the Sihai team. Then let's make it a deal. When Mr. Yang has made the arrangements, let me know and I will personally lead the team to Longguo to find you."
