When Chang Sheng saw Pacheco's article in Gazzetta dello Sport, he couldn't help but burst out laughing at the dinner table.
This made Avril, who was busy in front of the stove, turn around and ask him strangely: "Is there any good news, uncle?"
Chang Sheng chuckled: "Someone is helping us advertise for free. Of course it's good news."
"That Pacheco?"
"Well, that's him."
"What did he say again?"
"He is telling teams that are interested in Falcao to hurry up and pay a high price. Do you think this is free advertising?"
Avril also laughed: "He is really stupid!"
"You're right, he is indeed stupid!"

"Idiot" Pacheco helped Lazio create an excellent advertisement.
Two days later, the Lazio club received a second offer, this one belonging to Juventus.
The top management of Juventus now likes to do business with Lazio. In the past, Nemeiro and Lichtsteiner performed well after they arrived. This makes the top management of Juventus believe that Lazio's players are all of excellent quality.
Now seeing that Falcao failed to renew his contract with Lazio, they felt it was time to poach him.
Juventus offered 35 million euros.
However, their offer was also rejected by Chang Sheng, and the media immediately reported it.
If someone is following the progress of Falcao's transfer in the media every day, he will feel as if he is watching a live broadcast.
Any developments among the major clubs will be immediately reported in the media. Especially the online media played a very important role in this incident.
They are the fastest responding media.
If there is any trouble, they can report it immediately. There is no need to go through the procedures of typesetting, review, production, printing and so on like traditional media.
※※※
Chelsea and Juventus made offers one after another, making the La Liga duo of Real Madrid and Barcelona finally unable to sit still.
If we don't take action, I'm afraid Falcao will be snatched away!
"Gazzetta dello Sport" is right, Chang Sheng is in vain to prevent this transfer. As long as they can impress Lotito... money, Real Madrid is not short of it, and Barcelona is not short of it now that it has recovered.

In the twenty-seventh round of the league, Lazio defeated Livorno 2:0 at home.
Benzema and Falcao each scored one goal.
Then Real Madrid entered the fray. They offered Lazio 40 million for Falcao!
When this offer was made public, everyone and our friends were shocked!
Forty million!
This is not the beginning of the century anymore. At that time, all kinds of sky-high transfer fees were emerging one after another. Everyone has become accustomed to it.
Nowadays, the European economic environment is sluggish, many media organizations have gone bankrupt, and clubs have tightened their finances. The transfer fee of more than 40 million is considered to be a sky-high price, and one appearance is enough to become the top player in the transfer market that year!
When 40 million appeared, some people began to reflect on whether this fanatical "Falcao fever" was normal.
Is such a player who has only played in the European League for less than two seasons really worth 40 million euros?
※※※
On March 15, in the 28th round of the league, Lazio challenged Udinese away.
Before this game, Chang Sheng gave the team only one suggestion: Falcao should be the offensive arrow. The ball would eventually be passed to him and let him score the goal.
With the crazy assists of his teammates, Falcao also scored wildly. He finally scored four goals in this game and performed a big four!
After the game, "Gazzetta dello Sport" exclaimed: "It is stupid to question whether Falcao is worth 40 million! Is Falcao worth? Worth! Super worth! He is far more than 40 million! Twenty-eight rounds of the league
He has already scored 25 goals. When the league is over, how many more goals can he score?"
Holding this newspaper, Chang Sheng burst into laughter.
What a great teammate. This is true!
※※※
Just when everyone was exclaiming that Falcao was crazy and Real Madrid was crazy too. Chang Sheng then showed people what it means to be really crazy. He rejected Real Madrid’s offer of 40 million!
After previous reports by Gazzetta dello Sport, everyone has realized that Falcao will definitely not be able to stay in Lazio. Especially now, the better his performance, the lower the chance of him staying in Lazio.
Lazio should have realized this reality. The best result is to sell Falcao to raise funds for the club's debt repayment.
Four thousand is already a very good price.
Why did Chang Sheng still refuse?
He must be crazy!
While there was a lot of discussion outside, Lotito's call also came to Chang Sheng's mobile phone.
"Chang, 40 million! You rejected a transfer deal worth 40 million!"
Lotito wailed on the phone.
Chang Sheng knew that his chairman was in heartache.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chairman. You want to buy our top scorer for 40 million? Then they underestimate us too much!"
"Isn't 40 million enough?" Lotito stopped howling because he found out that Falcao might be able to be sold for more money...
"Not enough, not enough. It's still far from enough!" Chang Sheng thought of Barcelona that Falcao's agent Mosio mentioned to him.
Barcelona was the most active club at the beginning, but why did they remain silent during this wave of offers?
Will Barcelona give up Falcao?
Based on Falcao's current performance, I'm afraid it's impossible.
Their rival Real Madrid has made an offer, and it is currently the highest offer, beating out all other competitors.
How could Barcelona remain indifferent?
Isn't he afraid that a striker as good as Falcao will be snatched away by Real Madrid? This is tantamount to weakening his own strength in disguised form.
If he has to wait for a long time to win, he firmly believes that Barcelona will come out to join the competition.
At this time, Messi was not as bad as he would be in the future, allowing excellent centers like Eto'o, Ibrahimovic and Villa to leave Camp Nou one after another.
Falcao is still worth visiting.

After Chang Sheng rejected Real Madrid's offer, everyone temporarily calmed down on Falcao's offer.
But this time is different from last time. The calm this time is just brewing a bigger storm.
Round 29, Roma city derby.
This is a game that has attracted worldwide attention. Naturally, it is also a good opportunity to advertise and promote your own players.
In this game, Falcao once again took on the heavy responsibility of attacking.
Agent Mosio has also repeatedly instilled in Falcao during this period that only if he performs well can he go to a bigger team and get a bigger contract.
So Falcao's performance was also very positive.
He also worked hard for his own future!
Today's Falcao is really like a tiger descending from the mountain!
In the match against Roma, he scored two goals with his head and kick, helping Lazio defeat their city rival Roma 3:1 at home.
After coming to Lazio from a winning streak, Roma never won another game against Lazio, whether in the league or the Italian Super Cup, and were completely suppressed by their rivals in the same city.
This feeling is really unpleasant.
Every time there is a local derby between Lazio and Roma, it is always a repertoire to laugh at the Roma club for letting Chang Sheng go.
But this time, everyone was not thinking about laughing at Rome.
But continue to pay attention to Falcao's fate.
There are many transfer offers regarding Falcao in the media now. Judging from this situation, Lazio will definitely not be able to keep Falcao.
But Chang Sheng still firmly refused all offers for Falcao.
What exactly was he thinking?
The media wanted to interview Lotito. But Lotito hid from reporters, so now the only one who can speak out on behalf of the Lazio club is Chang Sheng.
If Chang Sheng says no, that is rejection.
No discussion.
※※※
The day after the game, the Madrid media broke the news that Falcao's agent, Claudio Mosio, had appeared in Madrid.
It seemed that he had gone to have a private meeting with the senior management of Real Madrid Club.
Falcao's father also stood up and spoke: "I am excited about Real Madrid's offer for my son. If my son can join such a great team, then I will die with no regrets!"
The family card has been used, and it seems that Falcao is really going to Real Madrid this time.
Calderon, the president of Real Madrid Club, also seemed very proud: "Falcao is an excellent center and he is the person we have been looking for!"
In the league, Real Madrid completely suppressed Barcelona and pushed Barcelona further and further away.
In the transfer market, they also want to grab Falcao. In this way, next season, Real Madrid will continue to dominate La Liga and seek to break through to the top 16 in the Champions League.
Even Real Madrid fans are beginning to look forward to Falcao's arrival.
"Marca" newspaper also conducted a survey, "Do you welcome Falcao to Real Madrid?"
Fifty-seven percent of Real Madrid fans selected the "Welcome" option.
Bookmakers like William Hill have given Falcao's thoughts on next season's opening, and Real Madrid's odds are also relatively promising.
When all signs indicated that Real Madrid would successfully snatch Falcao from Lazio, Barcelona finally couldn't sit still.
※※※
When Chang Sheng received a fax from Barcelona, offering Lazio 30 million euros plus Eto'o to buy Falcao.
Chang Sheng smiled.
Barcelona finally couldn't hold it any longer under its own series of arrangements.
Mosio went to Madrid to meet with the senior management of the Real Madrid club, which was his own instruction.
The purpose is to accelerate the emergence of Barcelona.
Now it seems that the goal has been achieved.
Of course, Chang Sheng is not satisfied with this quote.
Although Eto'o is good, it is impossible for him to accept the maximum annual salary of two million euros.
So Lazio can't sign Eto'o.
And compared to the player-plus-cash transaction model, Chang Sheng also prefers the all-cash model.
So he returned to Barcelona for a price of 65 million euros, the full amount, paid in one lump sum.
