If someone appeared on the third floor of the Tingzhuxuan Tea House at the Glory Stadium, they would definitely be shocked by what they saw.

A group of people sat around the rectangular mahogany tea table in the middle, and there were many people holding a cup of hot tea next to them, in front of the window of Tingyuxuan, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Solent Strait in the distance.

Manchester City's Hosni Mubarak and Manchester United's Woodward were arguing over Champions League qualification not long ago, but now they are sitting together.

Arsenal's Gazidis and Tottenham Hotspur's Daniel Levy, the two sworn enemies of north London, have never been in contact with each other, but now they are sitting side by side, and listening to their tones, the two have the same position.

Sky TV's James Murdoch and BT's Gavin Patterson, these are a pair of well-known rivals in the media circle, and they are fighting for the rights to broadcast the Premier League, but now they are also sitting together.

There is also Nike's head of the football division, and the global vice president of Adidas, who are actually very polite to each other.

It's hard to believe, isn't it?

Who would have thought that this group of opponents who usually seemed to want to kill each other were now sitting at a square table, sipping hot tea, talking and laughing.

The topic of discussion is the upcoming Champions League final.

At this time, if a reporter were there, take a picture and send it out, it would definitely make the jaws of fans all over the world drop, because they couldn't imagine this scene at all.

This is the difference between ordinary fans and insiders.

It's like Gazidis and Daniel Levy, the reason why they quarrel, with the help of the media, is because they represent the interests of their respective clubs, and they have to do it, but in reality?

Perhaps, just after being interviewed by reporters, Gazidis immediately called Daniel Levy and told him that he had been interviewed by a reporter from such and such a newspaper and what he had said.

The reverse may also be true.

This is actually quite normal!

There should be a clear distinction between public identity and private friendship, right?

It's like the public appearance and private life of a celebrity should not be combined at all.

But don't doubt their work ethic!

Don't look at them now in Tingyuxuan, talking happily with each other, but wait a minute, when they walk out of this teahouse and appear in front of reporters and media, they will still protect the interests they represent behind them.

This group of people, including the helm of the club, the representatives of the sponsors, and the managers of the league, sat together and discussed interesting topics.

It started with this Champions League final, but gradually extended to the stimulating effect of the Champions League final on the city of Southampton, and even the British economy, and then extended to the European economy of professional football teams.

Immediately afterwards, James Murdoch and Gavin Patterson, the two representatives of Premier League broadcasting rights, began to talk about Premier League broadcasting rights in an informal capacity.

In the words of the two, the scale of billions of pounds a year is taken very seriously by the British government!

Richard Scudmore talked about the overseas development of the Premier League, such as arranging some cup finals and important league games to be held overseas, and the various problems and problems that may follow.

As a result, the topic quickly shifted to the issue of overseas market development.

"We have done market research, and one of the reasons why this season's Champions League final has been able to attract the attention of fans around the world and achieve unprecedented attention and influence is because of the huge attention that Southampton has achieved outside of Europe in the past few years."

James Murdoch smiled slightly, looking very confident and calm.

"In the United States, Southampton has surpassed traditional giants such as Real Madrid, Manchester United, Barcelona and Bayern Munich two or three years ago, and has become the most familiar and favorite European giant for American fans."

"At this point, I think that a very important move of the Saints is precisely the policy established by Young Master Huan when he first took over the team, that is, mobile social networks!"

As soon as this was mentioned, everyone couldn't help but nod their heads frequently.

To be honest, James Murdoch's evaluation of Yang Huan is quite pertinent.

The Saints were the first team in European and international football to hold a press conference on social networks.

The first to receive this honor was Swedish centre-forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic, which has gone down in the history of professional football.

From Ibrahimovic, to Neymar, to other players, Southampton's press conferences have always been broadcast live on the Internet, and every Saints player has their own WeChat account, and must learn how to interact with fans around the world through WeChat, and it is said that there is also special training.

It is precisely because of Yang Huan's unprecedentedly important attention to the Internet that the popularity of the Saints on the Internet is developing and expanding in an almost explosive way.

"According to market research, not only in the United States, but also in Asia, the Middle East, Oceania and other regions, the influence of the Saints has surpassed a series of traditional giants, coupled with the huge influence of the Saints in the young fan base, making them the darlings of sponsors, and then further promoting the influence of the Saints."

Team sponsorship, although there are commercial considerations, is often not just commercial.

For example, after signing a sponsorship, the sponsor will definitely launch a series of marketing activities, which is also helping the team to increase its influence and popularity.

The shrewdest thing about the Saints is that the team has established a young team from the beginning, whether it is the team's lineup, tactical play, or the entire marketing model, it is aimed at the young fan base.

That's why the Saints are so popular with their sponsors.

Everyone knows that the main consumer force in the world is the young group, and in this field, the influence of the saints is the highest in Europe, and even far behind the second place.

After listening to James Murdoch's words, everyone couldn't help but look at Yang Huan with interest.

"Young Master Huan, don't you say something?"

"Yes, Young Master Huan, give me some dry goods and teach me some experience!"

"That is, the saints are doing so well, they have to help us all!"

"It's all in the same league, and everyone helps each other."

Everyone said this, and Yang Huan was depressed.

"I mean, I didn't think about it that much, okay?"

Didn't think about it so much?

Everyone, you look at me, I look at yours, and a trace of doubt flashed in both eyes.

Who will believe this?

The Saints have run to this day, with an annual income of more than 700 million pounds, and in just six years, they have gone from a team in the third tier of England to the number one club in Europe.

Also, it's not just the Saints, even the Saints' U19 youth team has reached the Championship this season, and they have also started to attract investment, and in the next few years, the Saints' income will definitely continue to climb, which is simply the envy of other teams in European football.

made such a big plate, but you Young Master Huan said that he didn't think about it so much?

"To be honest, I was just because, first, I have a lot of money, I don't know where to spend it, I heard that professional football burns money, I thought, or, go in and burn it, and have fun."

Everyone present was stunned when they heard Young Master Huan's words with a hippie smile.

My young master Huan, can you lie and type a draft?

Entering professional football to burn money, just to have fun?

If anyone believes you, whoever is a fool and an idiot!

"As for the Internet, you know, I like games, I like mobile phones, and I like to think about it when I have nothing to do, so I tossed out WeChat, and then I thought, the introduction of Ibrahimovic is such a big thing, such a sensation, if you don't hype up the hype, how can you do it, so there is a live Internet press conference."

When everyone heard this, their jaws almost dropped.

Isn't that too subversive?

Young Master Huan, are you sure?

Don't you know that those business and financial magazines and newspapers outside have all portrayed you as an investment genius with foresight, and said that you are an Internet marketing genius, and that you are the most knowledgeable football operator in Europe, but now that your words are spreading, it is simply to subvert the image of the outside world on you.

But there is a good saying, the name of the person, the shadow of the tree.

Young Master Huan has created such a huge football empire, if you want to say that it is nonsense, no one will believe it.

If nothing else, let's just say that it's good to bring in reinforcements.

Southampton's reinforcements are said to have been made by Young Master Huan himself, but aren't all the players introduced back then now playing?

Gareth Bale, Luka Modric, Neymar, Toni Kroos, Raphael Varane, Neuer, David Alaba......

This is to say that Young Master Huan has no level, who believes it?

Therefore, after listening to Young Master Huan's words, everyone directly understood it as pushing, and their hearts were more certain, Young Master Huan must have some secrets and dry goods, but he didn't want to share them.

On second thought, yes, who wants to share their own secrets of fame with their opponents?

Even if the friendship is iron, is there iron to this extent?

So, soon, everyone tacitly changed the topic.

Yang Huan was really depressed.

These days, to be honest, no one really believes it? Is there still a heavenly principle?

Honest man, to be honest, am I easy? Why doesn't anyone believe it?

If everyone present goes outside, they are all big people who are in charge of themselves, but they get along in private, but they are completely no different from ordinary people, they have to eat, drink, and even gamble when they are happy.

"Eh, Sun Yue, you're just in time, come here!"

When Yang Huan saw Sun Yue coming in, he immediately waved his hand and called him over.

"Young Master Huan!" Sun Yue walked over with a smile and greeted Young Master Huan and everyone present.

Yang Huan pulled him over and stood in the middle, "Here today, I'll be the banker, let them bet, and bet on this game!" ”

When everyone heard this, they were immediately happy.

"Young Master Huan, these two teams are yours, you won't cheat, right?" Hamad asked with a smile.

"I rub, what are you when I am? If I cheat, I'll lose 100! ”

When everyone heard that Young Master Huan was so arrogant, they immediately became interested.

"Sun Yue, you help me watch the field here, and by the way, greet them, I'll go out!"

As he spoke, Yang Huan stood up.

"Eh, Young Master Huan, where are you going?"

When everyone saw it, they were all surprised.

It's still early before the start of the race, what's going on?

"Pick up my wife!" Yang Huan said very confidently.

Pick up your wife?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Hamad is even more like my God, Master Huan, you are my idol, the target of my pursuit, how can you be like this?

Then, with a sad look of sadness that my faith had completely collapsed, this little prince of the Middle East turned around and pressed a million pounds in front of Sun Yue.

"I'm betting on Atletico Madrid!"

It seems that he is trying to turn his grief and anger into strength!

Everyone else burst into laughter and placed bets.
