Starting with saving Manchester United

Carrington, first team training building, second-floor conference room.

This is the place where Giggs and others staged a coup when Yang Fan first transmigrated here.

At this moment, the thick blackout curtains completely blocked out all light from the huge conference room.

All that remained was the huge display screen in front of the podium.

The screen was still black, but the sound system in the conference room was already emitting the cheers of the fans.

Full of passion, full of desire, full of power.

This is the sound of Old Trafford!

The players sitting in the conference room all recognized the source of the noise.

It was so real, exactly like what they heard during the game.

The sound grew louder and louder, and the picture gradually became brighter and clearer, until finally everything became clear.

At that moment, the roar of the fans filled the entire conference room.

This is the breathtaking sight of them walking out of the players' tunnel at Old Trafford!

The image showed the iconic twin towers of Wembley Stadium in London, along with a prominent caption.

August 9, 1998, Wembley Stadium, London, Charity Shield.

Anelka, wearing Arsenal's red and white jersey, delivered a brilliant pass, and Overmars, wearing number 11, broke through the goal guarded by Manchester United's number 1 goalkeeper Schmeichel.

The scene shifted again as the Manchester United players in the meeting room watched Arsenal players celebrating their goal wildly.

In the 57th minute, Christoph Waleche, Arsenal's number 12 striker and cousin of legendary star George Weah, scored again for the Gunners, extending the score to 2-0!

In the 72nd minute, Anelka received a pass from his teammate and scored again, breaching Schmeichel's goal.

3 is better than 0!

With a bang, the screen displayed this shocking red score, as if it were bleeding.

Although the meeting room was pitch black, Yang Fan could clearly hear the players' speechless surprise.

That was the 98/99 season, Manchester United's most glorious treble-winning season!

Before the start of the league, they suffered a humiliating 0-3 defeat to arch-rivals Arsenal in the Charity Shield.

How is that possible?

The scene suddenly changed, switching to the familiar Old Trafford.

On August 15, 1998, in the first round of the Premier League, Manchester United faced Leicester City.

Before anyone could react, Turkish midfielder Muzi Izet, wearing a blue Leicester City number 6 jersey, dribbled past defenders near the left byline in the penalty area and delivered a brilliant pass.

Center forward Heskey broke through Schmeichel's defense to open the scoring for Leicester City!

At this point, the game had only been going on for a little over 6 minutes.

What surprised the Manchester United players in the meeting room even more was that in the 76th minute of the second half, Leicester City scored again, extending their lead to 2-0!

Another uproar erupted in the conference room.

Everyone was stunned!

This is completely different from the Manchester United team they remember that won the treble.

How could Leicester City humiliate Manchester United by two goals at Old Trafford?

Fortunately, Beckham later scored a goal and an assist, helping Manchester United equalize.

Beckham's brilliant free kick in the final moments of stoppage time sent the entire Old Trafford stadium into a frenzy.

But the score was ultimately tied at 2-2!

On September 7, 1998, at Old Trafford, in the fourth round of the Premier League.

Charlton opened the scoring for Manchester United, taking the lead.

Yorke and Solskjaer then both scored twice, helping Manchester United come from behind to beat Charlton 4-1.

September 16, 1998, Old Trafford, first round of the Champions League group stage.

Manchester United, after taking a two-goal lead, conceded two goals in the second half to Barcelona.

Beckham put Barcelona ahead again in the 63rd minute, but Luis Enrique scored again for Barcelona.

The final score is 3-3!

The 98/99 season was universally recognized as Barcelona's historical low point.

September 20, 1998, Premier League Round 6, Highbury Stadium, London.

After taking a 3-0 lead in the Community Shield, Wenger's team once again secured a 3-0 victory over Manchester United thanks to goals from Anelka, Adams, and Ljungberg.

Nicky Butt was sent off with a red card when the team was down by two goals.

Arsenal player Ljungberg also missed a penalty earned by Anelka.

The Manchester United players in the meeting room seemed to realize that their memories were inaccurate.

Two consecutive 0-3 defeats against Arsenal!

Was Manchester United that weak back then?

On September 30, 1998, Manchester United visited the Munich Olympic Stadium for the second round of the Champions League group stage.

Elber opened the scoring for Bayern in the 11th minute.

Yorke and Scholes scored in the 30th and 49th minutes to turn the tide for Manchester United.

But in the final moments of the match, under immense pressure from Bayern, Sheringham scored an own goal.

2 to 2, tie!

November 25, 1998, UEFA Champions League group stage, Round 5, Camp Nou.

On December 9th, in the final round of the Champions League group stage, Manchester United narrowly drew 1-1 with Bayern Munich at home.

On January 23, 1999, at Old Trafford, in the fourth round of the FA Cup, Manchester United faced Liverpool.

Michael Owen opened the scoring for Liverpool just three minutes into the game.

No matter how hard Manchester United tried, they were unable to break through Liverpool's defense.

The game time is ticking away, second by second.

In the meeting room, all the players knew that Manchester United would eventually win.

Since the treble includes an FA Cup, how could Manchester United possibly lose to Liverpool?

But time is running out.

Even though everyone knew the outcome, they couldn't help but feel anxious and worried.

Let alone the players in the game?

Everyone was wondering, why haven't they scored yet?

In the 89th minute, Andy Cole assisted Yorke to score the equalizer.

At this moment, even the players in the conference room couldn't help but cheer.

In the second minute of stoppage time, two substitutes scored for Manchester United.

Scholes assisted Solskjaer to score, putting Solskjaer ahead.

2 is better than 1!

The entire Old Trafford stadium erupted in cheers!

The fans in the stands went wild!

The players in the meeting room were also excited by the ups and downs of the game.

On April 7th, the first leg of the Champions League semi-final will take place at Old Trafford, with Manchester United facing Juventus.

After Juventus captain Conte scored against Schmeichel in the 25th minute of the first half, Manchester United were unable to find a way to equalize.

The match remained deadlocked for a long time.

Juventus under Ancelotti was known for its defensive prowess and boasted one of the world's best squads at the time, a formidable wall that Manchester United simply couldn't break down.

But Manchester United struggled and did not give up.

Finally, in the 92nd minute, Giggs broke through Peruzzi's goal, leveling the score for Manchester United.

1 is better than 1!

It's the final moment again!

Bergkamp equalized for Arsenal in the 69th minute.

Captain Roy Keane then received his second yellow card and was sent off with a red card, leaving Manchester United struggling to stay afloat with one less player.

After a grueling 90 minutes of play, Arsenal were awarded a penalty in stoppage time, plunging Manchester United into despair.

The players in the conference room seemed to be experiencing it firsthand, asking themselves, "If they were in that environment, how would they feel?"

As a result, Schmeichel stepped up and made a brilliant save to deny Bergkamp's penalty!

This save not only prevented Arsenal from winning the double, but also Manchester United from winning the treble.

In the ensuing extra time, Giggs scored for Manchester United, who were down to 1 men.

Manchester United advance to the FA Cup final with a 3-2 victory!

It's the final moment again!

God, what kind of team is this?

April 21, Turin, Italy, Champions League semi-final second leg.

Just 10 minutes into the game, Filippo Inzaghi scored two goals, breaching Manchester United's goal.

The Red Devils, exhausted from a series of battles, were clearly out of sorts at the start of the game.

This is an absolutely hellish, cataclysmic start!

But conceding goals and falling behind only fueled Manchester United's fighting spirit.

In the 24th minute, Roy Keane scored a goal.

Ten minutes later, Yorke equalized for Manchester United.

The two sides battled fiercely until the 83rd minute when Andy Cole scored the winning goal.

3 is better than 2!

Another comeback!

This is a do-or-die match in the Premier League title race.

In the 24th minute, Les Ferdinand's goal handed the league title trophy to North London rivals Arsenal.

But goals from Beckham and Andy Cole helped Manchester United turn the game around once again.

2-1, another comeback victory!

Manchester United staged a remarkable comeback against Arsenal to claim the Premier League title!

The video ends with the Champions League final that took place at Camp Nou.

When Manchester United scored two goals in just three minutes during stoppage time, through Sheringham and Solskjaer, to defeat Bayern Munich, who had been leading for the entire match, everyone in the meeting room felt exhilarated!

The moment the match ended, the Manchester United players on screen went absolutely wild.

Everyone in the conference room looked completely exhausted.

Before today, they had all heard many stories about the peak treble-winning team of the 98/99 season.

But this video not only took them back to the classic matches of the 98/99 season, but also completely overturned all their beautiful fantasies about that treble-winning team.

Was that Manchester United team very strong?

Do not!

That season, there were many teams in European football stronger than that Manchester United team.

Otherwise, why would there be such a series of comebacks?

Why do we keep falling behind?

But Manchester United had the last laugh, and they achieved the legendary treble!

League, FA Cup, Champions League... all of them were won through comebacks, through the players' relentless effort and unwavering resilience.

In this long season, if even one Manchester United player had wavered in their belief or held back even slightly on the field, the treble would never have been possible!

Through these carefully edited clips, they truly felt what the Red Devils spirit is all about!

This is the value that Yang Fan wanted to instill in them through this video.

This is like a potent, dangerous drug.

Manchester United had been in a slump and couldn't handle strong medicine, so it wasn't suitable to use drastic measures.

After two consecutive victories, and with Manchester City, their city rivals, ahead of them, it's a good opportunity for a mental cleanse.

Yang Fan had heard Liu Qiangdong say something in his previous life.

"For a small company with only a dozen or twenty people, there's no need to talk about management systems; that's too extravagant!"

"What managers of small companies need to do is uphold their values."

"Using values ​​to replace most systems, and choosing the right people, is more effective than formulating rules and regulations, and can better avoid internal friction."

This management model is only suitable for companies with fewer than 100 employees.

The Manchester United team that Yang Fan is now in charge of has fewer than 30 first-team players.

More importantly, he doesn't need to shape the values ​​of this Manchester United team at all.

All he has to do is awaken the set of values ​​that Ferguson has instilled in Manchester United over the past 28 years.

In addition, Yang Fan also wanted to convey a belief to Manchester United players through this video.

Manchester United have had a disastrous season so far.

But so what?

The path to legend is always forged through thorns, with bloodied feet and countless wounds!

This video is the second thing Yang Fan asked Paul Brand to do.
