After celebrating their victory at Camp Nou, Real Madrid returned to Madrid from Barcelona overnight.
The team does not have time to linger, because it will soon go to Prague, Czech Republic to participate in the European Super Cup. The opponent is Chelsea coached by Mourinho.
Gao Shen and Ronaldo will go to Monaco to attend the UEFA awards ceremony and the Champions League group stage draw ceremony, and then go to Prague to meet the team.
This is also a very troublesome place.
In the past, the European Super Cup was held at the Stade Louis II in Monaco for more than ten years, but this year it was changed to a different venue and was scheduled to be held in Prague, Czech Republic, which brought new troubles to Gao Shen and others.
According to Gao Shen's original intention, Ronaldo is basically guaranteed to win the Player of the Year award. The Portuguese can just go by himself and give UEFA a face. However, UEFA will negotiate with Real Madrid and Platini and Infantino will also
I called Gao Shen one after another.
He didn't go there several times before, so he had to give it a try no matter what this time.
After winning the Champions League, they will also award you with the Coach of the Year Award. It would be inappropriate not to go there.
Florentino also called Gao Shen and advised him to go.
As a last resort, just accept it.
The morning after the team returned from Barcelona, after recovery training, a simple ceremony was held at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium to deliver the Spanish Super Cup championship trophy to Real Madrid's museum at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
This is actually a very ceremonial thing.
When talking about Real Madrid’s museum, we have to mention a very interesting thing.
In the history of Real Madrid, the Champions League has always been the most important championship trophy. This can be seen from Real Madrid's five consecutive championships in the early years. Therefore, in the trophy showroom of the Real Madrid Museum, the La Liga champions can only be used for the Champions League.
foil.
The central protagonist must be the Champions League trophy.
But when Florentino placed the newly won Copa del Rey trophy in a corner, the Real Madrid executives, senior players, and invited media reporters and fan representatives all applauded enthusiastically.
Florentino then gave a speech, thanking Gao Shen, all coaches, players and staff on behalf of Real Madrid for their efforts.
This is all routine.
But then, Florentino invited Gao Shen to come over and say a few words.
This was something we had never communicated before and was purely an impromptu move by Lafayette.
Gao Shen looked at Butragueno from the public relations department in shock, but Vulture looked innocent and said he didn't know.
But who is Gao Shen?
Where can I not see that this is a prank by Florentino, Butragueno and others?
Isn't it just improvisation?
Who can't?
Gao Shen immediately walked up to Florentino cheerfully and grabbed the Real Madrid chairman who was about to walk away. Just when Florentino was a little stunned, Gao Shen spoke.
"While the media, reporters and fans are here, I have to report a very serious issue to everyone. I want to complain to our Real Madrid president, Mr. Florentino Perez."
Everyone in the audience was a little stunned.
Everyone, including Florentino and Butragueno, were all stunned.
Florentino was the first to react. He thought Gao Shen had been punished and became angry. He immediately turned around with a smile and comforted Gao Shen. His expression seemed to be saying: Brother, we have something to talk about, what can we do in private?
It's okay to curse, but in public, we have to stay united.
Butragueno also reacted and stepped forward immediately.
Everyone was frightened and sweating.
But Gao Shen turned around, looked directly at Florentino, and asked very seriously: "Our trophy showroom is too small, why haven't we planned to expand it?"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Damn it, are you complaining about the chairman of Real Madrid?
you sure?
Florentino doesn't understand why?
Just now, he suddenly played a prank on Gao Shen, and now he is taking revenge on himself.
"Yes, yes, I accept the criticism and correct it immediately. Our showroom is indeed too small and we can't even hold the trophies."
Everyone burst into laughter immediately.
When two big guys are fighting like gods, at least consider the other people's little hearts.
The media reporters almost yelled, "Versailles is so special!"
The trophy showroom is already so big, isn’t there enough space?
Well……
Many media reporters looked around and it seemed that it was indeed a bit crowded, especially in the main exhibition area. There were 11 Champions League trophies, as well as league championships. If you really want to follow what Gao Shen said, you can win all the championships this season.
, there is really no place to put the trophy.
Florentino immediately stood with Gao Shen, facing the media, and said calmly that the management would come up with an expansion plan as soon as they got back, and they must expand the trophy room in the museum to a bigger one.
The people below seemed to have heard it.
Is this talking about the trophy room?
No, this is about Real Madrid’s ambition!
Gao Shen even laughed and replied, "Then the efficiency should be higher. Our team can win the championship very quickly."
Suddenly, many people present felt that Gao Shen and Florentino were standing in front of Real Madrid's row of championship trophies. The more they looked at it, the more they seemed to be in sync with each other. Many media reporters took pictures.
There will be headlines on the front page tomorrow morning!
…
After attending the event, Gao Shen stayed at the Bernabeu and held a meeting with Florentino and others.
The transfer market is about to end. If Real Madrid still needs it now, it's not too late to take action immediately.
But Gao Shen said that except for Alaba, he didn't want any other players.
Who made him love Araba deeply?
"Actually, the team's current lineup is really good. After the training and growth of the young players last season, they are now performing very well. Several new players are also outstanding. I believe we can achieve a lot this season."
Highly confident.
Florentino and others also have full confidence in him.
Since there is little demand in the transfer market, we turn to the next Champions League group stage draw.
With last season's championship, Real Madrid is now ranked in the second tier, while Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are ranked in the first tier.
Judging from the current situation, if Real Madrid is lucky, it will draw Porto and Benfica. If it is unlucky, it will be a Premier League team or Bayern.
Speaking of which, teams such as Benfica and Atletico Madrid rely on the Europa League all year round to gain points in the European War.
The second-tier teams are now also full of top players, such as Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Napoli, AC Milan, Juventus and Manchester City, etc. These are all strong teams in Europe's top leagues.
The third pot is almost interesting, Dortmund and Leverkusen are both in this pot.
In fact, after entering the second gear, in theory, the possibility of drawing a super death group like last season is basically gone.
For example, in the last bracket, the strongest team is La Liga's Real Sociedad.
But this team lost Illarramendi, and its overall strength has declined compared to last season.
Other victories like Anderlecht, Copenhagen, Plzeň, etc. are actually not enough to pose a threat.
Therefore, for this draw, Gao Shen actually has a headache in the third bracket.
"I absolutely don't believe we will meet Dortmund again this year!"
Gao Shen is not afraid of Dortmund, he just doesn't want to encounter them. It's too difficult to deal with.
But if you draw one out of eight and draw it so many times in a row, Gao Shen will never believe it.
"If I get drawn again, I will have a showdown with Platini on the spot to see if he really wants to kill me!"
Gao Shen made it clear that he was going to be a rogue.
Florentino and the others burst into laughter.
Don't tell me, Gao Shen is really qualified to act rogue now.
With his current prestige and status, Platini would also have a headache if he really wanted to go rogue with UEFA.
In fact, from UEFA's standpoint, they don't care who wins the championship.
On the contrary, the current Champions League is a vanity fair. Each club has invested so much. If UEFA really causes trouble, can those club owners just let it go?
Don't think too much of Platini. Among these club owners, there are many who have great hands and eyes and are more powerful than Platini. If he is really anxious, Platini will not be able to finish the meal and walk around.
For example, Bayern Munich's Beckenbauer, or Real Madrid's Florentino.
Not to mention the big guys behind Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain.
On the contrary, Chelsea's Abramovich seems to be a barbarian who breaks in, but he is actually very well-behaved.
Besides, if UEFA really wants to mess with a certain team, it doesn't need to be so obvious and transparent in the draw, can it just arrange the referee directly?
Why did Juventus arrange referees that were beneficial to them?
If UEFA does it themselves, who knows?
Even if something does happen, just push the problem directly to the referee and get rid of yourself.
"If there are no accidents, the best player of the year will be Cristiano Ronaldo. Next, our public relations department will start to prepare to help him!" Florentino looked at Butragueno and told him. .
The vulture nodded in agreement.
This is not only building momentum in the media, not only inviting some famous players to come out to support him, but also contacting media organizations with voting rights and the national team to get as many votes for him as possible.
At the very least, you can't let others win votes, right?
Whether it is the current FIFA Ballon d'Or or the previous Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year, they are all voting systems, so there is a way to win votes.
This is also the reason why in Gao Shen's previous life, Inter Milan's Sneijder, Ribery and others could not beat Messi and Ronaldo.
Even after Ronaldo left Real Madrid, Real Madrid concentrated all its resources on promoting Modric, who had shined in the World Cup, and directly promoted him to the throne.
After all, Real Madrid has very rich experience in running the Ballon d'Or and World Footballer.
This is also a huge temptation for many professional players who aim for the highest awards.
On the other hand, winning more awards is also a recognition of Real Madrid's influence and brand.
To a certain extent, the prominent positions of Real Madrid and Barcelona in European football are actually established by this accumulation over time.
Not to mention the current Premier League heroes, even Bayern would find it difficult to compete with Real Madrid in this regard.
