Zheng Mongzhun took Lister's information and looked at it carefully again. Zheng Mongzhun was very conceited. Of course, he had enough capital to be conceited. He had been the prince of the Hyundai Group, a large Korean conglomerate, since he was a child, and his journey had been very smooth. Hyundai Group was in civil strife, and his
Several brothers are fighting for power and profit. But Zheng Mongzhun is watching from afar and continues to develop his Hyundai Heavy Industries. He is currently the most favored among the brothers.
After so many years, he has forgotten what it feels like to be threatened. Even the boss of South Korea's political ax back then, no one dared to threaten Zheng Mongjun. Because even they would not threaten a large chaebol like Hyundai Group.
Even when the Korean government was in turmoil, they were always polite to the sons of chaebols like Zheng Mongzhun.
But today he was threatened. And it was a Czech that he was not familiar with, a Czech agent. An agent dared to threaten the vice president of FIFA, dared to threaten a billionaire. At first, Zheng Mengzhun was really funny, and even felt
This agent named Lister is so funny. He really thinks of himself as a sick cat.
Now even a cat and a dog have come to threaten him. But Zheng Meng must be a very cautious person, even a very careful person. Otherwise, he would not be able to cope with the battles between the AFC and the World Football Federation. So he immediately found him
People began to investigate the identity of this agent who dared to threaten them.
Soon everything about List came to Zheng Mengzhun's desk. Speaking of which, List and Zheng Mengzhun are indeed not on the same level. After all, he is also a world-class rich man with a net worth of more than 10 billion U.S. dollars. But after reading List's information
After that, Zheng Mengzhun was really undecided.
This information is very detailed. After reading it, even Zheng Mengzhun, who is the vice president of FIFA, took a deep breath, because the number of players, the quality of players, and the contacts in European football that List has developed in the eight years since he became an agent are all
It's very surprising. Although Lister has always kept a low profile, it seems that Lister is not very good, but after actually investigating Lister's information, the first thing Zheng Mengzhun thought of was the Brazilian agent Feigere. Because in his opinion
Riester is no different from Figel.
Look at the players under List's name. Zheng Mengzhun, as the vice president of FIFA, can know no less than ten players, which means that these ten people are all famous players in world football. There are also List's various personal connections,
All this made Zheng Mengzhun feel troubled.
Zheng Mongjun has a unique vision and wants to use football to enter politics in a roundabout way so that he can challenge the position of president in the future. Now he is fifty years old. He originally considered the position of president left by Kim Dae-jung, which is the presidential election in December this year.
.But judging from the current situation, it is almost impossible for Chung Mong-joon. Because Lee Jinchang of the Grand National Party has the highest voice and the strongest strength. Last time, he only lost to Kim Dae-jung by a slight margin. This time he is making a comeback. According to media surveys, the support rate
He surpassed more than half, which is a huge advantage. No one in the current Korean political arena is Li Jinchang's opponent. It is absolutely impossible for Zheng Mongzhun to defeat Li Jinchang alone, so he is already preparing to cooperate with another candidate Roh Moo-hyun.
Li Jinchang. But the current cooperation between Roh Moo-hyun and Zheng Mongzhun requires the selection of a representative and then competition with Li Jinchang.
In this World Cup, Zheng Mongzhun has already gained enough reputation. However, without any political experience, he is at an absolute disadvantage compared with Li Jinchang and Roh Moo-hyun, a former "human rights lawyer" who needs cooperation.
, so he thinks more about it. Because this year’s election is not very likely for him, he will need to continue to hibernate and wait for the next election. He will not hang everything on this time,**
It is not his style to die once and then. If that were the case, he would not have survived the civil strife of the Hyundai Group until now. Because with his age and qualifications, he can still fight for several general elections.
As the chairman of the Football Association, Korean football is his territory. He needs Korean football to continue to produce results to continue to increase his political chips.
There is no doubt that the center of world football is in Europe. As early as the 1990s, Japan began to use corporate sponsorship to bring its players to Europe, and many of them have made a name for themselves in Europe.
Just like the current number one star in Japan, Hidetoshi Nakata, who should be the number one star in Asia, is very successful in Serie A. The smart Zheng Mengzhun knows that the future development of Korean football will also take this step. Send outstanding talents to Europe for training, and then
Using them as the main players to form a strong national team is the development trend of Korean football.
Now after reading Riester's information, Zheng Mengzhun is very hesitant. The Czech Republic is not in his eyes. He can use his connections and money to destroy even Italy. What is the Czech Republic? Even if the Czech Republic is destroyed, the Czech Football Association will not threaten it.
to his position. But Riester…….
In fact, List is not without weaknesses. For example, List currently owns the Belgian club Mechelen, and has just won their Colo-Colo club in Chile. These information are all included in Zheng Mengzhun's investigation information. As a
According to the agent, this is strictly prohibited. Zheng Meng must be able to persuade the World Football Federation to investigate Riester.
But Zheng Mongzhun was not like that. He fell into deep thought. He had been the son of a chaebol since he was a child. Each of his brothers was stronger than the other. Although most of them are now dead, it is not that they are less capable than Zheng Mongzhun. Children who grow up in such a family,
Each one is smarter than the other. One thing he has known since he was a child is to know how to disguise and compromise. If he didn't compromise, his brothers would have eaten him to pieces.
If Zheng Mengzhun were to confront List head-on, then Zheng Mengzhun believed that List would boycott Korean players as he said. Because he could see from the information that although List was low-key, he was definitely not a person who swallowed his anger. Look at Hefeige
He was tit for tat and was in Valencia to participate in other people's board of directors elections, while England's number one agent, Stretford, who wanted to block Lister, had disappeared. Zheng Mengzhun did not dare to say that Stretford was Lister.
It was ruined, but he believed it must have something to do with Lister.
Zheng Meng definitely wants to use Korean football to make himself famous, but he will not spend his own money for Korean football. Thinking of this, he has to consider this matter by himself. In fact, he has already made arrangements to make the Czech Republic
Dropped. But at this moment he hesitated.
If it were an ordinary Korean, he would have been furious upon hearing List's threat and started a war with List. But Zheng Meng must have been in the AFC and FIFA for ten years, and his vision is not ordinary.
The people of the island country have many things to consider. They look further and have to consider their own long-term interests.
"Give the person a call. I want to meet this Riester Cherny."
"yes."
…………
"Hello, Chairman Zheng."
Zheng Mengzhun had single eyelids and not very big eyes. He was wearing a black suit and a bright red tie. When he saw Riester, he did not appear angry or otherwise. On the contrary, he had a smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Cherny."
And he was very enthusiastic when shaking hands with List. But such Zheng Mongzhun made List dare not neglect him. After all, this old boy is a world-class rich man, the vice president of FIFA, and even a figure who is eyeing the position of South Korea's president. Although
Now Riester's net worth is almost 100 million euros, but it is still not comparable to him.
If List and Zheng Mongzhun were on the same page. If Lister were a billionaire or a descendant of domestic plutocrats, he would definitely not be as calm as Zheng Mongzhun when threatened by a football agent. Lister sneered in his heart, damn these Asian politicians.
They are not fuel-efficient lamps. You can't tell what they are thinking from their faces.
Lister speaks English very well, and Zheng Mengzhun also studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Hopkins University in the United States, and he also speaks English fluently. Therefore, there are no outsiders when the two meet today, just two people.
"Chairman Zheng, this Korea-Japan World Cup was very successful. I think Korea and Japan will definitely attract the attention of European football with this World Cup. There will also be a wave of players traveling to Europe. Korea and Japan
There will definitely be a qualitative increase in the level of football in the country. Korean football is about to usher in a major explosion of development."
Seeing that Zheng Mengzhun was all ears, Lister was even more uncertain. But thinking of Zheng Mengzhun inviting him, Lister slowly started to think about it. If Zheng Mengzhun was not prepared to accept his proposal, then he would definitely not find one.
They met each other. So Liester expressed his views straightforwardly.
Zheng Mengzhun looked at the young Riester and was also weighing his psychology. So he slowly said: "But the players from our two countries have not been recognized by everyone in Europe. There are still many problems on the road to travel."
Lister was Chinese in his last life. He knows that East Asians are deeply influenced by Chinese Confucian culture, and it should be said that all East Asians belong to the Confucian cultural circle. Not speaking directly and liking to beat around the bush are common characteristics of countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea.
If a real European came here to talk to people from East Asia, he would definitely be driven crazy by their beating around the bush.
Just as Wenger recalled that when he was negotiating with the Japanese club, many core issues had been discussed. But they were still nagging about some details. Finally, Wenger couldn't help it and asked them if they wanted to sign a contract.
It wasn't until he stayed in Japan for more than a year that he realized that this was the custom of this place.
Lister understood what Zheng Mengzhun meant the moment he opened his mouth. He wanted to compromise, but since he compromised, he hoped to get some benefits from Lister.
"The World Cup is a big stage. We in the Czech Republic hope to enter the semi-finals or finals with dignity. Of course, if we lose in the quarter-finals, it means lack of strength and there will be no complaints. No matter whether we win or lose, as long as the Korean national team can compete with the Czech Republic with dignity.
In this competition, I believe that European football will see the strength of the Korean national team."
Lister is also very good at beating around the bush. Back in China, he had kowtowed a lot for a little benefit. He knew how to talk to people and talk to ghosts.
"By the way. Recently, we in the Czech Republic are planning to expand the size of the league. We will expand the first division to 18 teams and the second division to 20 teams. I think we need a lot of players. Judging from the strength of Korean players from the World Cup
It is still very strong. In addition to those players who go to the five major European leagues, if there are players willing to play in the Czech Republic, we in the Czech Republic will open the door. Of course, we also hope that Korean companies will pay more attention to our Czech league."
The expansion of the Czech League is a big move after Merkley became the chairman of the Football Association. Before this, there were only 16 teams in the Czech First Division, but Merkley believed that there were too few clubs. And the restrictions on foreign aid would be greatly liberalized.
List threatened Zheng Mengzhun, but he was unwilling to offend him too much. Because he would still be in FIFA for ten years, he had no way to deal with List, but it was still possible to use random tricks to deal with Czech football.
.
Zheng Mengzhun smiled slightly, but still frowned: "It is difficult for our Korean players to land in the five major European leagues. However, there are still some landing in the Eredivisie or the lower-level leagues of the five major European leagues. But they have never used Korean players, so there are still some
A lot of doubts.”
Lister sneered. But after thinking about it, he said: "Chairman Zheng, I dare not say anything else. In small leagues such as the Dutch League, the Belgian League, the Czech League, and the Slovak League, I can vouch for Korean players who I think have excellent abilities."
of."
"Ha ha."
Zheng Mengzhun really laughed for the first time tonight. But looking at List, Zheng Mengzhun was also very afraid. He even thought of the world football agent Felipe who had a close relationship with former FIFA President Havelange.
Gers. Because the young Riester in front of him will definitely not be worse than him in the future.
He felt a little aggrieved. Personally, Zheng Mengzhun surpassed Leicester in terms of assets, strength, and influence. But from the general trend, Korean football is weak in front of European football. Otherwise, it would not be what it is today.
meeting. But he is a decisive person. Zheng Meng will not offend an agent with strong power in European football like List just for a place in the semi-finals. Because he has little hope of this year’s election. If the election today is impossible, he will
He needs to impact the next general election. Then he needs to continue to operate the political resource of Korean football. Zheng Meng must hope that the field of Korean football will continue to bring him more political capital, and does not hope that it will be gone after this World Cup.
"Mr. Cherny, let our national team have a fair duel. If South Korea loses, it means they are inferior in skill."
List nodded, stood up and said: "If the Czech Republic loses, it will show that Korean football is strong, and I will definitely prove the strength of the Korean national team." (To be continued.)
