Chapter 860: The Fish Dies, the Net Breaks
A beige-white Aston Martin Successor Convertible ran out of the Hamburg 7 Ring Road at the intersection of the People's Park Stadium.
Exit the highway and head west, less than a kilometre, turn left and you will arrive at the Volkspark Stadium in Hamburg.
The outer part of the stadium is the parking lot for the players on match days, and the inside is the internal parking lot of the team.
Like many Bundesliga teams, Hamburg's stadium and training base are connected to the north and south, and share a car park.
The Aston Martin Successor slowly drove into the internal car park and parked in an exclusive internal parking space.
In the parking lot, more than a dozen cars have been parked, all of them Aston Martin.
As a British luxury brand that has seen a very rapid recovery in recent years, Aston Martin is the car sponsor of the Hamburg team for the new season, and has also held a huge car selection ceremony before.
After accepting the sponsorship from Aston Martin, all Hamburg players will be converted to Aston Martin.
As the operator of this cooperation, Thomas Lake got out of the car, immediately glanced at the parking lot, and after making sure that there were no other brands of cars parked in, he nodded and smiled with satisfaction and walked to the People's Park Stadium.
"Hi Thomas!"
As soon as I walked into the administrative office of the stadium, the front desk immediately stood up to say hello.
If you are familiar with Hamburg, you will know that the front desk of Hamburg has changed.
used to be a middle-aged aunt in her forties and fifties, who loved to ignore anyone and everything.
And now, it has been replaced by an office girl in her twenties who looks very smart and capable in professional attire.
Although he doesn't look good, he always maintains a very friendly and kind smile on his face.
"By the way, Dietma just asked me to tell you that he was waiting for you in your office and asked you to hurry over."
Thomas Lake frowned, what happened?
But he smiled politely at the front desk, said thank you, and quickened his pace towards his office.
Along the way, people kept greeting the CEO of the Hamburg team.
After a few months, the administration of Hamburg was completely controlled by Thomas Lake.
Although there are still many old courtiers left, they can't make any waves.
In the next period of time, Thomas Lake will continue to streamline and replace the management of Hamburg, and he will set up an efficient and professional operation team, which is also a further requirement of Young Master Huan for him.
Pushing open the office door, as soon as I entered, I saw Dietmar Beiersdorf sitting on the sofa, and Thomas Lake immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Hi, good morning, Dietma, is there anything looking for me?"
Beiersdorf immediately stood up, saw Thomas Lake close the door and walked in, and immediately greeted him.
"There is something we must convey to Young Master Huan as soon as possible." He said with a solemn face.
"What's the matter?" Thomas Lake frowned.
Having been with Beiersdorf for so long, he rarely saw his partner look like this.
"I just received the news that Kkhoff they intend to disclose everything to the media."
Thomas Lake originally picked up the glass of water on the desk and planned to pour himself a cup of hot water, but when he heard Beiersdorf say this, he stopped his movements, turned around in surprise, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"They decided to disclose to the media the deal with Young Master Huan and the current situation of the Hamburg players."
"What?" Thomas Lake was taken aback, "Are they crazy?" ”
This is simply going to break the net!
You know, in professional football, many things can only be done under the table, not on the table.
It's like those head coaches, even if they fall out with their old club and are fired, they won't reveal each other's secrets, let alone reveal some secrets and contradictions, because they know very well that this is the unspoken rule of professional football.
Once anyone violates this unspoken rule, then he will definitely pay the most painful price.
Even, there will never be anyone, or a team, willing to accept him.
Now many people have heard of the Boseman Act, and many people should think that this clause that changed the landscape of European professional leagues should be a very good thing, but what they don't know is that Boseman regrets it very much.
Because of his stubbornness at the time, although he created the Boseman Act, he was also ostracized by almost all major European league teams, and no one wanted to accept him.
In a way, he's free, but there's nowhere to play.
The bill was indeed a great deal and directly changed the landscape of professional football in Europe, but as an individual, he paid the most painful price for it, which he probably never imagined when he was young and vigorous.
That's the power of unspoken rules!
No one, no team, can change and avoid it!
And now, Kerkhoff and the others are doing this, making it clear that they are going to put the previous series of transactions on the table, and they are even likely to expose the details of Young Master Huan, including the matter of the Miracle Football Group.
"I don't understand!" Thomas Lake shook his head, "What's in it for them?" ”
Beiersdorf shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No good!" ”
"No good? So what are they doing? Thomas Lake couldn't figure it out, "Doing this kind of thing is not only not good for them, but it will also make them break the unspoken rules of football, and from now on, I'm afraid they don't expect to continue to mix in professional football!" ”
Beiersdorf nodded and said with a wry smile: "You're right, but since they decided to do this, they may have made up their minds and won't work in professional football anymore." ”
"Is it that simple?" Thomas Lake sneered and said fiercely: "If they dare to do this, I guarantee that they will be in prison for the next ten years!" ”
Beiersdorf was also a little stunned, but he didn't expect that Thomas Lake, who had always been kind and kind, would have a moment of anger and even say such threatening words.
But that's clearly not the point right now.
"The point now is that we have to find a way to stop them!"
Thomas Lake nodded, in his heart? I was thinking about whether I had pushed them too hard recently, and let them make this kind of lose-lose decision.
Thinking of this, he felt a little guilty in his heart.
In this link, he still underestimated the determination of Kerkhoff and others to take revenge.
"By the way, Dietma, how did you know about this?" Thomas Lake suddenly thought.
It stands to reason that this should be a very confidential matter, but how did Beiersdorf know about it?
"It was Peter Nogley and Holger Hilronimus who informed me."
After a pause, Beiersdorf sighed, "They told me that this was a decision made yesterday at the Kerkhoff house, and they were there at the time, but after thinking about it, they thought it was crazy, and if they did, it would cause great damage to the hamburgers, so, after thinking about it, they decided to tell me." ”
Thomas Lake nodded slightly, which was not very strange.
These two are famous people in Hamburg, and their feelings for Hamburg are real.
For them, Hamburg is what they are loyal to, not Kkhof.
Taking a step back, even if they don't care about hamburgers, they should care about their own future, right?
If such a scandal really occurs, they don't expect to continue to mix in the professional circle in the future.
Therefore, it is understandable that they choose to rebel at such a time.
This suddenly made Thomas Lake a little lucky, if they didn't report it, I'm afraid ......
Thinking of this, Thomas Lake couldn't think about it anymore.
"Dietma, what do you think about this?" Thomas Lake asked with concern.
Beiersdorf gritted his teeth and said: "If it is according to my idea, it will have to be solved sooner or later anyway, it is better to simply solve the matter as soon as possible and save trouble." ”
Thomas Lake understood what he meant.
Now Young Master Huan is powerful, with the support of the fan representatives, and the control of the team's finances and management, and the athletic department is also in his hands, although Kerkhoff and others have the decision-making power of the board of directors, but so what?
Besides, now fans are generally dissatisfied with Kerkhoff and others.
Therefore, if they launch at this time, Kerkhoff and the others have no chance of winning.
"But what if they really want to die and break the net?" Thomas Lake didn't say it clearly, but the meaning was clear.
Beiersdorf was also helpless, and this was also the worst-case scenario.
"If we do get to that point, we can only do everything we can to stabilize the fans, and at the same time, I think the fans should also stand up and support us, so ......"
Thomas Lake shook his head.
Beiersdorf was not wrong and it was likely to happen, but if the fan representatives came forward, it was very likely that they would have overthrown a Khofer, and as soon as he turned around, he immediately set up another fan monitoring organization.
This shouldn't be what Young Master Huan wants.
"Let's give Young Master Huan a call and report on the current situation."
"Hmm!"
The two of them really had no choice, and they didn't dare to make such a big decision easily.
Therefore, they immediately called Yang Huan, who was far away in Southampton, to report the latest progress of the situation in Hamburg, as well as the next move of Kerkhoff and others.
Yang Huan listened very carefully and asked a lot of questions, trying to understand all the details as much as possible.
He even asked Beiersdorf to contact Peter Nogley and Holger and Hirronimos to find out what was going on inside the Krhoff team, such as what they were thinking.
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.
In one morning, after a raindrop of phone calls, Yang Huan basically learned everything about Hamburg.
And think tanks including Peter Kenyon, Ron Gurley, and Zhao Yuanfang also came to Southampton and gathered around Young Master Huan to negotiate and study the current countermeasures.
Some of the proposals should now be compromised for the time being, and then they should be broken down one by one.
But there are also those who believe that the reaction of the fans is temporary, and they should take this opportunity to take full control of Hamburg in one fell swoop and completely sweep Kerhoff and others out of the house.
In short, there are people who propose any plan, and they basically come up with a feasible plan and put it in front of Yang Huan.
Yang Huan never expressed his position, thinking about some questions silently and weighing the pros and cons.
Kerkhoff and the others did die, and they will definitely die.
It's just that Young Master Huan always has to weigh and weigh, when and in what way, kill them, he will pay the least price and harvest the most abundant fruits.
That kind of stupid thing of hurting a thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred to oneself, Young Master Huan has never done it.
Moreover, this time, Young Master Huan is not just going to kick Kehoff and the others out of Hamburg, he is also going to send this group of people to prison, so that they will stay away from Hamburg from now on!
You died yourself, don't blame me for being ruthless!
After Yang Huan figured it out, his eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness.
