Although Hu Lai only posted one sentence on Weibo, he did not say why he cheered for his father.
But what is the hottest topic right now?
It’s the documentary from Goal.com.
His old man is suffering from online violence. If he came out and said this at this time, he couldn't just wish his father a happy Father's Day, right?
So he must have clearly supported his father in this storm of public opinion.
So of course, he was also sprayed.
In fact, it is quite common for Hu Lai to be criticized nowadays, even though he is already the most powerful figure in Chinese football.
But the most awesome people in China may not be recognized and praised by everyone, let alone Hu Lai.
Coupled with his personality, he actually has quite a few dark spots.
It's just that Hu Lai doesn't care how others scold him.
When he was still a nobody, he was not popular in his high school class. When others scolded him, he would get angry and go back.
Now that he is very famous, when others scold him, he no longer has to scold him in person because his fans can help him.
Naturally, his energy will not be spent on such trivial matters.
After publicly expressing his support for his father on the Internet, Hu Lai stopped paying attention to the voices on the Internet, not even his father's incident.
He cannot decide which path Chinese football will take in the future.
Playing your own football well is the greatest contribution to the future of Chinese football.
Since there is no intercontinental competition this year, the summer of 2029 is a rare year for Hu Lai and Li Qingqing to enjoy a longer vacation.
On July 6, Hu Lai and Li Qingqing left China and took a flight from Jincheng via Dubai to Madrid.
They will invest in their respective preparations for the new season.
For the new season, Chinese fans generally do not have any performance requirements. They only hope that the overseas players, including Hu Lai, can stay healthy and avoid injuries in the new season.
They don't want anyone to miss the World Cup due to injury.
Chinese fans have high hopes for this World Cup.
Many people hope that the national team can qualify from the group stage and reach the knockout rounds in this World Cup.
This goal is not easy. There is no precedent for Asian teams to reach the knockout rounds in their second World Cup, so they hope that the national players can stay healthy so that they can pursue the goal of qualifying from the group in the World Cup.
Especially Hu Lai. His performance last season was so exaggerated that you can imagine it with your knees. After the start of the new season, Hu Lai will definitely become a thorn in the side of many people and the target of all defenders.
This is why mainstream public opinion is not optimistic about Hulay replicating last season's scoring data.
In an interview, Hu Lai also said that he did not really care about whether he could repeat his crazy performance last season: "...The important thing is that I have done it before, and that is enough. I will not compete with myself."
He really meant it, not just to show off in front of the media.
He didn't even know how he performed like that last season. It's important that he's in good shape, but his teammates are also in good shape, and the team hasn't suffered any major injuries... these are all
Conditions conducive to him setting a record.
It's very difficult to copy.
First of all, the Madrid Pirates left Carey. The departure of this guy who was nominally a forward but actually a master organizer had a huge impact on the offensive firepower of the Madrid Pirates.
And it's hard to find a replacement.
Madrid Pirates have been searching for Carey's successor since January this year.
It's hard to find the right candidate no matter how hard you look.
When I bought Vukovich, I was also trying to find a successor for Kyrie. But when I actually bought him, I found that Vukovich and Kyrie were not the same type of players at all, and it was impossible to be Kyrie's successor.
people.
After all, he was a superstar who could confront the "Four Kings" head-on. If Maxi Carey's successor is so easy to find, then Carey won't be a big deal...
In fact, many people still can't figure out why Maxi Carey didn't renew his contract with the Pirates.
Even a fool can see the benefits of remaining a pirate.
He will continue to be the main force of the Pirates, and the forward combination formed by him and Hu Lai can sweep all powerful enemies in Europe.
Although there have been rumors that the relationship between him and Hu Lai is not good, the two of them can cooperate tacitly on the court and score so many wonderful goals, which shows that the relationship between them in private does not affect their cooperation.
Some people also regretfully said that if Kyrie can renew his contract with Madrid Pirates, then Madrid Pirates will have a great chance of becoming the first team to successfully defend the Champions League after its restructuring.
It's a pity that he left the Pirates, and the Pirates missed making history...
In addition to letting Maxi Carey go for free, Madrid Pirates also failed to bring in strong reinforcements.
In the past two seasons, Madrid Pirates spent a total of more than 300 million euros on signings.
This money brought Hulay, Ismael Kamara, Danny Drew, Milos Vukovic... and other players to the team.
They also helped Pirates win the Champions League.
However, after winning the Champions League, the Madrid Pirates management decided to reduce their investment in the transfer market.
It's not that they don't plan to invest anymore, but the way of spending money is different from buying people directly in the transfer market.
Now the Madrid Pirates have to leave more budget to improve the contracts with many players in the team.
Players like Kamara and Vukovic who just transferred to the team last year have not renewed their contracts so soon.
However, the contracts of many players on the Pirates are up for renewal.
If the club doesn't act, their contract will only be for one year next year, which is very dangerous.
In addition to those whose contracts are about to expire, those whose contracts have not expired will also need to be given a new contract.
Such as Hu Lai.
As the biggest contributor to the Madrid Pirates last season, Hulay's contract with the Madrid Pirates has only lasted two seasons, but the club has decided to give him a maximum salary contract in the team.
It just so happened that the team's internal salary space was cleared, and the original team's highest-paid player Maxi Carey's contract expired and left the team.
The Dutchman's annual salary is 15 million euros after tax. If taxes are included, the Madrid Pirates' annual salary to Carey alone is almost 30 million euros.
The contract that Hu Lai signed with the Pirates had an annual salary of more than 16 million before tax, which was higher than Kyrie's annual salary, but it was after tax, while Hu Lai's salary was before tax. The actual annual salary after tax was 9
More than a million.
Almost as soon as the Champions League final was over, the Madrid Pirates couldn't wait to invite Hulay's agency for contract renewal negotiations.
The negotiation process went smoothly.
On the one hand, Song Jiajia did not raise the price on the ground, and on the other hand, the Madrid Pirates were very sincere.
The annual salary figure they offered didn't even give Song Jiajia a chance to bargain...
Annual salary of 24 million euros, after tax!
Not to mention the maximum salary within the Madrid Pirates team, it is also a salary that can enter the top ten in the entire La Liga and even in world football.
Although the Madrid Pirates are a wealthy club, they do not spend as much money as those top wealthy clubs or the tycoons in the Middle East.
The Madrid Pirates have always been financially restrained.
Previously, Kyrie's salary of 15 million euros was the highest salary in the team. But 15 million euros is not even among the top ten annual salaries in world football today.
Now they are willing to give Hu Lai an annual salary that far exceeds Carey's.
I was really frightened by the momentum of other giants competing for Hulay. After last season's Champions League final, rumors spread across Europe that a certain team was interested in Hulay.
This "So-and-So Rich Club" is any rich team that can be named.
Some news spreads with both nose and eyes, while other news makes people laugh and laugh.
For example, why did Julay suddenly leave the Madrid Pirates? Because his best partner on the court, Maxi Carey, was also leaving. He was dissatisfied with the club's failure to keep Carey, so he planned to leave...
Do you think such rumors are outrageous?
Some people say that the reason why Hulay wants to leave Madrid Pirates is because he has won everything he can in Spain and wants to change places to continue to challenge himself. The Bundesliga is his next stop, and he will join Blue and White Munich.
The evidence is that after he scored a hat trick at the Blue and White Munich home court and eliminated his opponent, the fans of the Blue and White Munich not only did not boo him, but instead gave him a standing ovation.
This scene deeply moved Hu Lai, so he decided to leave Madrid Pirates and switch to Blue and White Munich.
At the same time, he will also realize his dream of winning the Bundesliga title with Blue and White Munich. In this way, he will collect the Premier League, La Liga and Bundesliga titles.
So will Hulay's next stop be Serie A or Ligue 1?
Caesar, the "Great Emperor" of Serie A, is getting old and it is time for someone to take over.
As for Paris Eger in Ligue 1, it turns out that Mendy Payet's good partner Vitali Cotien's condition has declined seriously. Hulay can just partner with Payet and help Payet win the Champions League...
In short, rumors like this that have noses and eyes are rampant.
At first glance, some of them are just made up by the fans themselves.
But some really gave Pirates Club Madrid a scare.
Otherwise they would not have issued such a sincere contract.
Obviously they were really afraid that Hu Lai would switch to another place, although the possibility was very low. But before Maxi Carey refused to renew his contract with the Pirates, the Pirates also felt that it was a sure thing that they would renew Carey's contract for another three years.
Woolen cloth……
There are already so many surprises in this world, so don’t scare them anymore.
Therefore, "no matter what, we must re-sign a five-year contract with Hulay" has become the most important task of the Madrid Pirates Club during this transfer window.
Hu Lai, who is about to turn 26 this year, if he signs with the Pirates for another five years, he will be 31 when the contract expires. It can be said that he has dedicated his best career to the Pirates.
The management of the Madrid Pirates Club even believes that as long as they can successfully renew the contract with Hulay, it will be no less important and meaningful than signing Hulay in the first place.
Fortunately, all the news about Hu Lai going to other teams were rumors, so the contract renewal negotiations between the two parties went very smoothly.
Before the World Cup qualifiers started, Hulay's agent team had already reached an agreement with the Madrid Pirates, and all they needed to do was sign.
Although renewing Hulay's contract with an annual after-tax salary of more than 20 million euros will cause the entire team's salary level to skyrocket.
But Madrid Pirates Club insists on doing it because they think it is worth it.
Therefore, the club appears to be a bit conservative in this summer's transfer market. There is really... no more money to spend on buying people.
Moreover, as the team's head coach, Parotti has also assured the club that the team's current lineup is also very competitive.
Although Kyrie has left and no suitable overtime candidate has been found, Parotti can adjust the lineup and tactics, rematch the current staffing, and generally maintain the team's combat effectiveness.
This is Parotti's promise.
Correspondingly, if the team's performance in the new season is not as expected, then even the meritorious coach who just led the team to win the Triple Crown will be fired...
The warmth and ruthlessness of the wealthy family are vividly reflected.

On July 8, after the Madrid Pirates team returned to Madrid, the official social media account of the Madrid Pirates Club released the latest news.
This is a video.
The video begins with Jule's highlight moments from last season, including his four goals against Sevilla Navigator; his hat trick against Madrid Kings, which broke Cerrados' consecutive goalscoring record; and against Valenti.
