When Van der Hill helped Tang Hong and several other players contact the European club in the hotel, Tang Hong and his group were leisurely shopping at a shopping mall in Mexico City.
Except for Tang Hong and Sun Rou, everyone else will return to China first, and come to shop to buy some specialties and gifts to relatives and friends.
In order to satisfy their shopping desires, Tang Hong first gave them 10,000 US dollars each, which was enough for them to squander in this shopping center.
Sun Rou is not a girl who particularly likes shopping, but she likes shopping, especially interested in exquisite gadgets. Tianhai's bedroom is filled with exquisite small pendants or decorations, most of which are handmade items, which will give people a dazzling visual sense.
Tang Hong followed her, and when she walked into a boutique, he would also go in, but he was not interested in most of the products, just to make sure Sun Rou was not in trouble.
At least the English level of the two people can ensure that they have no big problems in shopping and communication.
Van der Hill was so busy in the hotel that he didn't even bother to take a sip of water. In addition to helping Tang Hong contact European teams, Zhao Hanchun, Qin Rui and Luo Hongkai also received trial training invitations from some European teams.
Van der Hill wants to make sure that these invitations are not a waste of time, after all, these Chinese players can join a European team with zero transfer fees.
If we consider the potential commercial value of the players, many European teams will be happy to do such transactions.
The so-called business value of players is based on their abilities and is also related to the club's own business resources.
Just like Dong Fangzhuo joined Manchester United, he had not played several games for Manchester United before leaving Manchester United, but the business returns Manchester United earned from him were at least ten times the total transfer fee and salary cost!
Because Manchester United has huge commercial resources, they only expand their commercial resources in the Far East, sign sponsor contracts, and proudly claiming to sponsors in Manchester that they have the largest fan base in China, this is part of their confidence to ask sponsors for higher contract quotations.
In the eyes of many foreign clubs, Chinese players are actually very valuable and potential. In the 2005 World Youth Championship, the Chinese national youth team, which was known as the super platinum generation, was favored by European teams after the event, including olive branches sent by the five major league teams.
But there are almost no players who go out in the end. There are many reasons. Some are because the players themselves lack the spirit of adventure and have a comfortable big contract in China. There is no need to go to a foreign country to explore. It is undeniable that not everyone treats football like a dream and expects to be closer to the peak every day. Some domestic clubs obstruct the request for sky-high transfer fees and finally fail to transfer.
Any club with some strength in Europe also hopes to introduce Chinese players to get lottery tickets. Perhaps the competitive rate of return is not high, and no matter how good it is, it will be like that. Unless it is really a shocking genius, the business returns are much higher than those from Africa, North America and South America!
Chinese capital is expanding its territory in Europe, and the Chinese market is a must-fight for sponsors. It is normal for business factors to affect the club's business philosophy.
But this kind of lottery ticket can't be spent in a lot of money. If you lose, you will be blind and you will be unable to get it.
Therefore, the performance of the Chinese team in this World Youth Championship has made many European clubs ready to move.
As long as you have carefully watched the Chinese team's game, you can basically see which players have potential, room for improvement, and their current strength is not bad.
Tang Hong won the Golden Globe Award in the World Young Championship, which will not allow all teammates to rise up. He has outstanding abilities, who should be a good player or who should be.
If the world football is regarded as a pyramid built up with factors such as wealth, influence, and competitive level, then European football is undoubtedly the upper level of the pyramid, and European giants are on the top of the tower.
Players are an important part of the club and are also elements that can directly affect the club's ranking in this pyramid.
If the European football world is further subdivided, the giants will plunder elite players, while the first-tier clubs can only choose what the giants don’t want. The civilian teams down are composed of countless grassroots players, and they are also playing the role of an elite player incubator.
Whether it is a first-tier club or a wealthy family, they cannot always expect to train a player from the youth team to the first-tier team to become the main player. Even if they are doing such a thing, it is just a big wave. In the end, there are very few players who can truly become the first-tier team's unshakable main role with the club's youth training genes.
Two years ago, Barcelona Dream 3, which dominated the world, half of Guardiola's main lineup was his own youth training players, which is already very amazing, but there are still half, Henry, Etoo, Yaya Toure, Sylvigno, they are not players trained by Barcelona themselves.
If the player background analysis is expanded to the substitute lineup, the proportion of youth training players in our team will still decline.
The wealthy clubs will grab the stars trained by first-tier clubs, while the first-tier clubs will recruit the elites of civilian teams under their command. This is also an interlocking system.
Different teams sign ups based on their own competitiveness and record needs. In other words, with the performance of the Chinese youth team in this World Youth Championship, even if they land in Europe, their starting point will not be much higher, because they have not truly experienced the baptism of professional arena and will not enter the sight of first-tier clubs and wealthy clubs.
Therefore, teams without England are interested in Tang Hong. On the one hand, it is a trouble for labor certificates, and on the other hand, it is also a high-intensity threshold for the English League in physical confrontation.
As for the Spanish team, due to the restrictions on foreign aid quota, it is almost impossible for a team to give foreign aid quota on the front line to a Chinese player who is about to over 18 years old.
This is especially true in Italy. Only one non-European player can be introduced every year, and it is impossible to waste it on a player with no professional experience.
German teams also consider the quota of foreign players, but France has paid little attention to Tang Hong due to the loose restrictions on foreign players.
Van der Hill was busy from morning to night. Due to the jet difference with Europe, he started from 5 a.m. to 4 p.m., and then he stopped working in Europe.
When Tang Hong and his party returned to the hotel that night, Fan Deshill called Tang Hong, Qin Rui, Luo Hongkai and Zhao Hanchun into his room.
The tired Van der Hill said straight to the point: "Zhao Hanchun, I have contacted you two Dutch League teams. After the trial invitation is sent, you can go back to go abroad.
Qin Rui, the Cottbus Club in the German Second Division, hopes you go to the trial. I think this is a good opportunity. Chinese players have played in that club before. Although it is not ruled out that they hope to continue to maintain the support of Chinese German fans, I communicated with their coach and he admired you very much. If you perform well in the trial, he will give you the opportunity to adapt to the professional arena as soon as possible.
Luo Hongkai, the Spanish League Two team Celta hopes that you can join them because they lack the midfield now. If you decide to go, then I will only give you one suggestion. The Spanish players' skills are top-notch in the overall level of Europe, so if you want to show your uniqueness, you must have a broader view of the overall situation and vision. At the same time, you must be more competitive than those Spanish players who play technology, like a wise beast. This is the foundation for you to gain a foothold in the Spanish League. Don't forget this point. If you simply compete in technology, it will be difficult for you to win applause!"
Zhao Hanchun, Qin Rui and Luo Hongkai nodded heavily. They attached great importance to these opportunities, and at the same time looked at Tang Hong in confusion. Where would he go?
"You three are here first, please come to me any time if you have any questions."
The three of them left, and there was no consideration for them to think about whether they wanted to go or not. If they didn’t go, they might never have a chance!
Tang Hong stayed, and Van der Hill frowned and said to him: "Your situation is a bit complicated. Although you are the one who received the most invitations to try out, after I communicated and reasonably doubted and ruled out some clubs, there were actually not many choices left.
Too many clubs just hope you can join their youth team. I don’t deny that you will still perform well if you go to the youth team, but the youth team is not under the nose of the first team head coach. At the same time, you want to get opportunities. The pick is too low. Youth team players will only be given opportunities when the first team is unavailable.
There are also some clubs who just want to earn the attention of Chinese fans, that is, commercial value from you. They will package you as a star to hype, but will not give you much substantial opportunities. You will be like a mascot who can make a fortune in the team.
The remaining teams that can be selected, I think the one that suits you are more suitable are two teams, one is Montlipierre in Ligue 1. They ranked 14th in Ligue 1 last season. The reason why they are very interested in you is very simple. First, they don’t have the money to buy excellent strikers. Second, their goal-scoring ability in Ligue 1 last season was the second-last among the 20 Ligue 1 teams. They only scored 32 goals in 38 games, and the relegated Lons all had 3 goals more than them.
You are a gamble that they are eager to strengthen their offense in the new season. If they lose, they can give up on you. Anyway, they won, they will have a great harvest, competitive returns, your second transfer income, etc.
It's a bit far from talking about this.
Another club is Braga in the Portuguese Premier League. In the past ten years, the three giants in Portugal, Porto, Sporting Lisbon, and Benfica have the most stable results, and the closest to the three giants is Braga.
They won fourth place in the league last season and second place in the league the previous season. They were eliminated in the Champions League group stage last season, and moved to the UEFA Cup to the finals and staged a Portuguese civil war with Porto. They finally lost the Portuguese civil war.
Their signings have almost been completed in the new season. In addition to striving to qualify for the top two in the league, they also have to continue playing in the UEFA Cup.
So the choice before you is actually very simple.
When you go to Monlipierre, you will most likely become a forward who has playing time directly. As long as you can perform within a month, you will basically be firmly in the main force.
When you go to Braga, the team is competitive fiercely, and you have to wait for the opportunity. When the opportunity appears, you need to seize it. You still need to work hard to seize the next opportunity. Only when you seize opportunities continuously and fully prove your ability and value can you become the main force, because Braga's record is under great pressure!
Going to France will be easier at the beginning. Going to Portugal, I can't say it's gambling, but it means a bit, because if Braga is so powerful and scores on the front line in the new season, you won't have any chance!
As for how to choose, I think you need to think carefully. It is already mid-July, and a better place may not appear, because most teams have completed signings or are about to complete, and they are on the road to negotiations!"
Chapter completed!
