454 I am not a genius

"Rister, the Czech Republic's performance has been getting better and better in recent years."

The Czech Republic suddenly exerted its strength in the last ten minutes. With the goals of Nedved and Baros, it defeated Greece, the biggest dark horse of this European Cup, 2-0, and successfully entered the European Cup finals. From 96

Czech football suddenly rose to prominence at the beginning of 2006. It won the European Cup runner-up in the 1996 European Cup, the quarterfinals in the 1998 World Cup, the championship in the 2002 World Cup, and now the Czech Republic has entered the finals again in the 2004 European Cup.

In the past eight years, there have been only two teams in European football that can compare with the Czech Republic. One is Brazil in South America, and the other is France in Europe. The others include Germany, England, Spain, and Italy, which are traditional strong teams.

Not as strong as the Czech Republic.

Carvajal looked at Riester with some envy. Speaking of which, Riester is an outsider to the mainstream European leagues and traditional European powers. He comes from a small country like the Czech Republic. If placed in China, China is a heavenly country, and

The small countries next to China are all barbarians. The Czech Republic is like this. Although the Czech Republic was also a strong industrial country before World War II, after following the Soviet Union, it was also one of the countries with outstanding industry in Eastern Europe at that time.

But no matter what, the Czech Republic is still a small country compared to those European powers. It is a small country in terms of politics and economy, and it is even a small country in football. Riester came to European football from the Czech Republic, a small barbarian country far away from the mainstream.

, but became the number one agent in European football. And List’s current status has a lot to do with the Czech Republic’s outstanding results in the past ten years.

It's a lie that Carvajal doesn't envy Riester. Spain is also considered a traditional strong team in Europe, but its performance in the competition is poor. Spain has a nickname called "King of the Group Stage". If the Spanish national team can have the Czech Republic

results, then Raul might have been touted as the king of football long ago. It is precisely because the results of the Spanish national team are so poor that it has also affected the development of those Spanish stars.

"Just in time to catch up with a group of golden players."

"This is also fate."

If we talk about golden players, the Czech Republic can't compare with Spain. Spain has really had no shortage of good players in the past two decades. Spanish players were all famous in European football at their peak. Not to mention representative players like Raul, like Mendie

When he was at his peak, he was known as the best attacking midfielder in European football. Albelda and Baraja were both top-notch defensive midfielders in European football. Vicente, Reyes and of course Joaquin were also top-notch midfielders in European football.

A top winger with a net worth of more than 30 million euros. But what's the use? When it comes to the World Series, each one is weaker than the other, and the results are getting worse every time.

"Ginés, don't be disappointed. There are many good players in Spain now, and I believe we will be able to achieve good results soon."

"I hope."

The game was over, and the two people left the scene. Lister did not participate in the Czech Republic's celebration, after all, they had just entered the final. Carvajal had some things to do, and he had to help Lister connect with Wenger, so he left early.

Riester, on the other hand, had other things to do, so he received another group of people in Portugal.

"Mr. Williams, what do you think? Are there any difficulties?"

"It's not difficult. But Mr. Cherny, we need Nedved to personally promote this autobiography."

"No problem."

Now it's time. Although the final has not yet been played, Lister knows that Nedved is really going to become a god. If Portugal wins the European Cup this time, the most dazzling player in the Portuguese lineup will be neither Figo nor Christie.

Arnold Ronaldo, but the unpretentious Deco.

Deco has performed very well this season, leading Porto to the Champions League runner-up. He is also the absolute core player of the club. Now that Portugal has entered the finals of the European Cup, Deco is also the absolute main player. Whether it is from the club or the national team, Deco's

His roles are much better than those of the representative figure Figo.

It's a pity that Deco was an unknown player before this season, and his reputation is too small. Even if Portugal wins the European Cup, no one will focus on Deco. Instead, players like Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo will

If it attracts more attention, it will greatly reduce Deco's votes. Deco will never win the Ballon d'Or, which represents the highest award, the World Footballer.

But the Czech side is different. It is precisely because there are too many dark horses in the Champions League this season that there are no decisive players. Gerrard and Owen performed well in Liverpool. It stands to reason that Owen is more famous than Gerrard, but Gerrard

His contribution exceeded that of Owen. Unfortunately, this was originally the season when Gerrard and Owen became gods. Unfortunately, the England national team failed again in the European Cup, which brought a huge stain to them.

The Czech Republic is the best, and Riester deliberately suppressed others to set off Nedved. Therefore, even if the Czech Republic wins the European Cup runner-up, Nedved's reputation accumulated over the years can still win the European Golden Ball and World Football.

Sir, although it may be unconvincing, Nedved's reputation accumulated over the years is no joke.

That's why Riester started a new money-making plan. Nedved now has a high salary and a lot of business income. Riester thought for a moment, Nedved is now older, already thirty-two years old, and he will soon

I have reached the age of retirement. Taking advantage of the current peak period, I will release Nedved's autobiography.

"Mr. Cherny, in what order do you want them published?"

This time, the publisher Rist found was an English company. There was only one reason why Rist found an English publishing company, and that was that they had the strength and influence of global publishing.

Here today is the CEO of this publishing house, Hod Williams. They publish a lot of books every year. There are books of all kinds. In terms of autobiographies, there are many autobiographies of famous people, including celebrities and sports stars.

There are memoirs of rich people and even many politicians who have retired from politics, etc.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, Hod Williams will not personally come here for a player's autobiography, but this time there is something special. Nedvěd is currently the most representative superstar in European football. He can also be regarded as a late bloomer.

A superstar. Among the 1972 generation, Zidane is also considered a late bloomer, but he was only 26 years old when he became famous in European football and became a top superstar.

But Nedved is different. It was the 2002 World Cup when Nedved truly became the world's top star. It was precisely because of the 2002 World Cup that Nedved became a top star like Zidane.

The past two or three years were a time when European football lacked top superstars, especially Zidane and Ronaldo's performances were somewhat bleak, which led to Nedvěd coming from behind to become the representative star of the 1970s.

For players in the 1970s, there were many superstars. Countless good players came out, such as the French golden generation, the Portuguese golden generation, the Brazilian golden generation, the English golden generation, and the Czech golden generation. But the one who stood at the top was Ronaldo.

and Zidane, and the one who came up behind them was Nedved.

If such a superstar wants to publish an autobiography, Hod Williams himself cannot neglect it. What is more important is that Lister wants to meet and discuss it in person, and Hod Williams cannot underestimate it. Lister is a very important person in football.

They are so powerful that they might be able to cooperate in the future. That’s why Hod Williams came in person.

"Mr. Williams, what order do you think should be followed?"

"I want to hear what Mr. Cherny means?"

"No need. I believe in Mr. Williams and your company's professional capabilities. I don't know anything about this myself, so I feel comfortable cooperating with you."

"Thanks."

Hod Williams nodded, very happy that Lister said that. Ferguson sold 600,000 copies within two months after his retirement. Lister believed that the sales of Nedvěd's autobiography would never be less than that of Ferguson's.

Autobiography. In the Czech Republic, Nedved is like a god. The players who won the World Cup in 2002 were even hailed as "national heroes." Lister believes that the sales volume in the Czech Republic alone can reach such a number.

"Now, Cherny, what name do you want to give this autobiography?"

"I'm not a genius."

"kindness?"

Hod Williams was stunned. This name is really funny. Lister did not come up with the name by himself, it was Nedved who decided on it after discussion.

In fact, this autobiography is Nedved's autobiography, but Nedved has no time to write an autobiography at all. And with Nedved's level, it is completely difficult for him to write his own autobiography. This autobiography is

List found someone and asked Nedved to spend an hour every day talking about his childhood, and then some things after entering football. Finally, the professional extracted something from what Nedved said.

, turned into an autobiography.

The first volume of Nedved's autobiography has just been released. If Nedved himself read the autobiography, he probably wouldn't think it was written by him. Because the story in it is the same, but after modification, it resembles that of Nedved himself.

Orally speaking is completely different.

"good."

Although the name was too old-fashioned, Hodder Williams did not raise any doubts. The only thing he had to consider now was how to sell this autobiography better.

Of course, Nedved's autobiography is not as popular as Clinton's autobiography, but I believe it will be a small amount after publication. List is now racking his brains to make money. Nedved's peak period is about to pass, and this year

Then Ronaldinho will be born, and Nedved will no longer have the momentum he has now. Now Nedved is at the height of his fame, so Riester wants to take advantage of Nedved.

When world football was at its peak, it was squeezing out a lot of economic benefits.

If this autobiography is done well, it is not impossible to earn tens of millions of dollars. Especially the market in the Czech Republic, Italy, and Asia. It depends on how to develop this market.

"Hodder, I hope we can have a happy cooperation this time. If I have a superstar like Pavel in my hands again in the future, I will definitely cooperate with you when I want to publish an autobiography."

PS: I have a one-day meeting today to discuss this year’s tourism situation. There is only one update, which I will make up tomorrow.
