Crystal Palace Club Building, Beckenham Training Base, Croydon, South London, England.
meeting room!
Crystal Palace executives are holding their first roundtable meeting before the new season.
The meeting was held under the auspices of Ms. Martina, the club’s boss and president!
Those present included the club's second owner, honorary vice-president and team coach Tong Yi, team vice-president Baker, executive CEO Louisa, honorary director Bremy Hoskin and the manager of the press department, among other senior officials.
.??.
This can be regarded as the first such large-scale high-level meeting held by Crystal Palace after Martina took over. Almost all the senior leaders of the club attended.
Obviously this meeting is very important.
Martina said directly, "I know you should know why I bought the Crystal Palace football team. Therefore, for you, the real owner of the team is my lover David, and he is the real helmsman of the team.
.”
The senior executives at the scene nodded in agreement.
But their psychology is still a bit awkward, and they don't show affection as well as you do. Are we just here to see you acting like shit today?
Tong Yi felt very grateful in his heart. Martina had really done too many things for him.
Martina continued, "You should also know that I am usually very busy. I will not be based in London permanently, and I will have less time to come to the club. As the chairman, I basically don't care about things. Then the club's affairs are completely decided by David.
After all, he is the real leader of the Crystal Palace Club!"
The senior executives present immediately understood the main content of today's meeting.
It is obviously establishing Tong Yi's supreme status and giving Tong Yi supreme power, which will affect the distribution of power in the club in the future.
This is very important to them, because it is related to the future of each of them!
These senior executives are very serious!
of course there are exceptions!
For example, Honorary Director of Crystal Palace Football Club Hosking.
In fact, he has never had any real power in the Crystal Palace club. He is just a die-hard Crystal Palace fan with a bit of fame and money. He did generously donate money to help Crystal Palace tide over difficulties, so in order to repay him, the Crystal Palace club gave him an honorary director.
title.
Hoskin is a celebrity in England. He is a famous rich man in England. He has been on the rich list compiled by the local media in England many times. His assets have reached 340 million pounds.
Therefore, he is just here to listen on behalf of the fans today.
Therefore, he seemed very relaxed.
There is also Baker. Baker can appear here solely to help his niece and niece-in-law. As for this power, he really doesn’t value it particularly. He came here more to help Martina and Tong
One supervises other senior executives.
Therefore, he is also very calm.
Louisa Others seemed a little nervous. After all, this was related to their future power and future, etc. It was very important. It would be impossible not to be nervous.
Martina continued, "But a person's energy is limited. David's focus will obviously be on the team and team competition."
The people below listened more and more carefully and attentively.
Tong Yi also nodded slightly. He thought so himself. His energy was indeed limited. Just dealing with the team's competitive matters was enough to give him a headache. He really didn't have the energy to deal with other things.
Martina also considered Tong Yi's health and said the following: "Then the daily operations and commercial promotion of the club will be handed over to others!"
Everyone else was refreshed and it was time to get to the point!
Everyone turned their heads and stared at Martina with great hope.
Martina pondered for a while, and then said directly, "I have discussed this with David before. We will leave the daily operations of the club to Mr. Baker!"
Everyone looked at Baker, with some surprise and some understanding in their eyes.
After all, Baker is Martina's biological uncle, so it would make sense for Martina to use her own people.
The daily operations of the team are not simple either. They have to deal with some trivial matters, such as ensuring the logistics of the team and the club, maintaining the relationship between the club and the fans, and even dealing with some public opinion crises. These are all here.
within the category.
Baker's work is still very heavy.
Upon hearing this, Louisa's beautiful eyes lit up instantly.
Martina glanced at Louisa, and then said, "The club's executive CEO Louisa will be responsible for the club's commercial promotion."
Louisa clenched her fists and applauded secretly. Her guess was indeed correct.
Martina still gave her the most important job!
Business promotion is also very important and very complicated, ranging from small merchandise stores around the club to establishing the Crystal Palace industry brand, etc. Louisa is responsible for the club's external relations, sponsorship, etc.
Louisa is responsible for everything else.
Starting today, the three giants of Crystal Palace Football Club are born: Baker, Louisa and Tong Yi.
Martina finally said, "Of course, David has to make the final decision on all major matters of the team. Do you understand?"
The senior executives of the Crystal Palace Club nodded and expressed their understanding.
They can still tell clearly who is the big king.
Then, the meeting discussed the focus of Crystal Palace Football Club’s work in the coming period and made a detailed report on Crystal Palace Football Club.
The club’s five-year plan…
Anyway, this conference room has been open for a long time.
Open from 10am to 1pm.
After the meeting, Tong Yi gave himself a day off to accompany Martina.
Because Martina will be busy again soon, and Tong Yi will also be completely busy after this, and the team will soon gather for the new season. Therefore, the two of them don't have much free time now.
Tong Yi is going to spend these two days with Martina.
The two of them didn't go anywhere. They stayed in a small villa that Tong Yi bought in London for more than a day. It wasn't until Martina was about to fly to Italy that the two of them came out of the villa. Tong Yi drove
I sent Martina to the airport and personally put Martina on the plane.
It was at the same time that Haman and Mandel returned from Scotland.
Also returning with them is Scottish youngster Andrew Robertson!
Suddenly, the media all over England were reporting on the first player transaction officially announced by Crystal Palace Football Club this summer. Crystal Palace Football Club introduced 18-year-old Robertson from the Scottish Football League Second Division team Queen's Park Youth Team.
By this time, one question emerged in the minds of all reporters - who is this kid?
Media reporters had never heard of this little guy’s name before. It was only after they saw the transfer news published on the Crystal Palace official website that they learned about this name for the first time. They really didn’t know what this little guy actually was.
What's so magical about this? After all, this little guy is already eighteen years old, but he has never entered any first-level national youth team in Scotland.
In other words, this kid had nothing special or even outstanding before, otherwise he would not be so unknown.
The media reporters instantly became more curious!
How did Tong Yi discover this boy? What did Tong Yi like about this boy? Is this boy really a genius?
No one else knew, not even Harman and Mandel.
Because they have never seen Robertson play football until now, they just followed Tong Yi's arrangement and brought this kid back from the Queen's Park team in Scotland. Now they are also full of curiosity about Robertson and what his strength is.
Woolen cloth?
Suddenly, all the English media and fans were paying attention to Robertson. Even the English media reporters were observing Robertson with magnifying glasses. This made Harman and Mandel very worried. They were still afraid of Robertson.
The young man couldn't hold back under such great pressure and collapsed.
These media reporters are really not human beings!
You should give the young guys some loose space, instead of like now.
They are really worried about Luo Berson couldn't bear it.
Fortunately, at this time, two more amazing transactions appeared in English football, which instantly attracted the attention of media reporters and fans, and only then gave Robertson a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.
For 35 million pounds, Chelsea introduced Belgian genius Eden Hazard from French Ligue 1 team Lille!
Manchester United signed Dutch striker Robin Van Persie from Arsenal for £24 million!
Suddenly, the media's attention turned away from Robertson and turned to the transfer of these two people. Especially on the transfer of Robin van Persie, the Arsenal captain finally left the team and switched to Manchester United.
embrace.
Arsenal fans were very angry. Some of the radical fans even burned Van Persie's Arsenal jersey in front of the media reporters, and angrily called Van Persie a traitor in front of the camera. Some guys also sent death threats to Van Persie.
threaten.
Then this guy was taken away by the police the next second.
This shocked the fans, and they all joked that this should be the fastest time the British police dispatched police.
These days, almost everyone is talking about Robin van Persie leaving Arsenal and moving to Manchester United, and the popularity is very high. Robertson is relieved, and Hamann and others are instantly relieved.
But Tong Yi is not worried at all!
After all, he knows very well that Robertson is Liverpool's main left back in the future and has helped Liverpool win the Premier League championship and the UEFA Champions League championship. His mental quality is not as bad as everyone thinks.
This difficulty should not defeat Robertson.
Of course, media reporters are discussing Hazard's astonishing transfer fee to join Chelsea, because this price is really too high and shocking.
However, when they think that Hazard played 48 times for Lille in the French Ligue 1 this past season, scored 21 goals and provided an astonishing 18 assists, the media reporters felt that it was very worthwhile. Moreover, this
At that time, "Sun" reporter Webster also dug out a newspaper from 2009, which wrote that Tong Yi, the current head coach of Crystal Palace, was very optimistic about Hazard and wanted to introduce Hazard, but at that time Hazard
When his net worth reached 5 million euros, Tong Yi gave up.
Webster claimed that Hazard is indeed the one Tong Yi is interested in. This guy is definitely a genius. Although Chelsea spent 35 million pounds to introduce him, it is definitely worth it. Because Tong Yi is interested in young people.
There has never been a failure, and Webster claims Chelsea have found a treasure this time.
Reporters from other media want to interview Tong Yi and ask what Tong Yi thinks of Hazard now. They want to see how Tong Yi evaluates Hazard now.
It's a pity that they didn't find anyone at all. At this time, Tong Yi was meeting with Raiola, the legendary agent in world football, because Tong Yi wanted to introduce one of his talented players!
