In almost every World Cup, there will be some disputes over interests, among which the biggest dispute, but not much of the attention of fans, is the distribution of interests between the host and FIFA.

According to the business operation model established over the years, FIFA has formed a very sound profit-making mechanism, they will promote and operate their entire business operation mechanism from the moment the host rights are awarded, plus they have restrictions on the host in the rules, so almost every session of the host will have the host to criticize FIFA.

Even Germany, which claims to have the best economy in Europe, is no exception, and even worse.

It has been said that Germany is the most rigid country in the world because they think about responsibility before they do anything.

Therefore, the head of the German Football Association, Tswan Ziger, took the lead in bombarding FIFA, believing that they were excessively commercializing football.

"The sale of football-related goods does not mean that the sale of something ends in exchange for a sum of money, but that we should consider what kind of ideas these products will convey to fans, what kind of feelings they will have, and whether it will hurt their love for football."

"Like FIFA, almost ubiquitous commercial operations, only money, that will make fans less accepting of football, we can see that 6 years of fans in football-related consumption enthusiasm has decreased compared with 2 years and 8 years of rest, but the price increase masks this fact."

"When the fans start to abandon football, then we will have to pay countless times more than the commercial income, and we may not be able to win back the hearts of the fans!"

It's not that the German Football Association doesn't have the power to say this, because since the near collapse of the century, the Bundesliga has begun to restructure and then adjust its business philosophy, especially in the treatment of fans, which has made the cost of watching football for fans in the Bundesliga always the lowest, and in the long run, the benefits for the league are obvious.

In addition to the chairman of the German Football Association, Beckenbauer, the chairman of the World Cup organizing committee, has also publicly questioned FIFA, arguing that the commercialization of the whole is already hurting the sport of football, especially FIFA, whose first concern is not football, but money.

"At a time when the industry's leadership has become a machine chasing profit and money, we should reflect on how we operate the World Cup and how we define football as a sport!"

In Germany, he was bombarded by two powerful figures in German football, and Blatter said in an interview that FIFA is also seriously considering the matter of overly commercial operation, but he said that some of the hosts' bombardment of FIFA is wrong.

"They are always complaining that they do the most and get the least benefits, but they don't take into account why those five teams are coming to Germany, it is because of the leadership of FIFA behind the scenes, without us, they would not have come to Germany, and we have arranged the Quchang World Cup qualifiers before that, just to warm up for the finals."

"But FIFA has also made huge gains from the qualifiers!" A German journalist reminded with a sneer.

Blatter's face sank, but since the reporter was not asking questions and spoke quietly, he pretended not to hear.

In fact, everyone's doubts about FIFA are not because of anything else, but because as a civil society organization, it is not subject to any supervision, and they have gained huge benefits from every World Cup, Confederations Cup and other events, and what is the use of it? What is it for them to desperately compete for benefits with the host every time?

That's what everyone is most concerned about.

But there is no doubt that at least no one would dare to throw this question to the face of the FIFA chairman, who claims to be more influential than the president of the United States, because no one would want to blame him.

But at this time, a reporter threw out another question for fear that the world would not be chaotic.

"Mr. Blatter, when German President Köhler was interviewed not long ago, he believed that if the World Cup can be successfully held, the biggest contributor will be Beckenbauer, and the German football emperor will also participate in the preparations for the World Cup, so that his personal prestige in Europe and the world has reached a very high level, and it is even expected to threaten your FIFA immortals..."...,

The reporter looked like he was deliberately trying to find fault, but he was telling the truth.

There have been many people who have said before that the German World Cup is the World Cup between Beckenbauer and Germany, and it has nothing to do with FIFA, and Beckenbauer visited three World Cup participating countries before the World Cup, and they were all received very high and grand, and the specifications even exceeded that of FIFA President Siblatt, which made people can't help but think about his future after the World Cup.

But Blatter didn't let the man continue, but directly interrupted him.

"I talked to Franz that after the World Cup, he will be on the FIFA Executive Committee as a member of the Executive Committee, and he will also be at the helm of the FIFA Special Technical Group, which will be responsible for the promotion and development of football around the world, which is a very good position for him."

It is clear that Blatter blocked Beckenbauer's direct passage from the World Cup Organizing Committee to the FIFA chair, because the gap between the two is too big.

But not long ago, UEFA president Johansson said that if Beckenbauer was interested in taking over FIFA, he should start with UEFA, which made many people suspect that Johansson was co-opting one of the most influential football bigwigs in international football at the moment.

And Johansson's words are not unreasonable, European football has always been known for its unity, from the UEFA chair to the throne of the FIFA seat, if it works well, the UEFA region already has more than 5,000 votes, if you add some votes from other regions of Turkey, it is almost Beckenbauer's biggest bargaining chip to become the emperor of football.

One of the important reasons why Johansson lost to Blatter that year was that Platini split Johansson's votes from Europe, leading to a European civil war, and then some other regions also supported Blatter, so he lost.

But with Beckenbauer's current prestige and status, it is entirely possible that he could do what Johansson could not have done back then.

Moreover, Beckenbauer has always represented the mainstream European football forces, and he can be regarded as a member of Johansson's side.

Between the two football bigwigs, the battle between Beckenbauer has undoubtedly become the most lively topic before the World Cup, but Beckenbauer, who is sandwiched in the middle, has never given a positive answer to this.

If he didn't want to it before, just because he didn't have the confidence, then now, he really has enough chips.

He is undoubtedly not big enough to challenge Blatter directly, but if he wants to run for the UEFA presidency and follow the path that Johansson has planned, he will hopefully succeed.

So the media around the world are speculating about Beckenbauer's thoughts, and the previous almost one-sided UEFA presidential race has regained suspense because of the coming of the World Cup.

"There is such a thing as a medal, people who can't get it desperately want to take it, and when they get it, they feel nothing!"

On the most high-profile seat of the state banquet arranged by the German General Administration, Yang Cheng held a beautiful box in his hand, which was placed with medals, and on the chest of his suit was pinned to the [Federal Republic of Germany's Medal of Honor], Germany's highest honor.

"Do you think I'm arrogant when I say that?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.

Beckenbauer pouted, "That's what I said back then!" ”

"Really?" Yang Cheng smiled, but he really felt that this kind of medal was nothing.

"This can only be regarded as an honor, not much substance, for you!" Beckenbauer said.

Yang Cheng nodded, it's really useless, you can't eat it.

However, as a foreigner, it is indeed a proud thing to be able to receive this medal, and the Chinese ambassador to Germany has personally come to congratulate him, and the country has also paid great attention to and reported on this matter.

"By the way, are you really going to marry Heidi?" Yang Cheng asked with concern.

Heidi here is not Yang Cheng's lover Heidi, Krum, Germany's first beauty is much more beautiful and younger than her, she is now busy preparing for the opening ceremony, and she will be active in the major arenas during the World Cup, how can she have time?

Yang Cheng said that Heidi is Heidi, Born Mays, and Beckenbauer's old lover for many years, and if he is really married, it will be the third marriage of the football emperor. …,

"You know, it's hard to say about love, I've been with her for 7 years and have two children, I should take on this responsibility!" Beckenbauer said with a serious face.

"Come on, you!" Yang Cheng scolded with a smile, "The whole world is saying that you have brought the whole atmosphere of German football, because since you, these stars in Germany have become playboys!" ”

What's more serious is even to say, a very important reason why German football stars like to abandon their wives is because of the precedent set by Beckenbauer, this German merry brother is now married for the third time, and almost every time it ends with the intervention of a third party, and it is said that there is still a lover outside who has not been exposed, God knows where he is hiding?

"You seem to be worse than me!" Beckenbauer retorted with a laugh.

The two of them knew each other, and they both laughed in unison.

After the joke, Beckenbauer saw Blatter come to the stage to accept Merkel's honor, his expression became a little solemn, and he sighed, but did not say anything.

But Yang Cheng understood his mood at this moment, because he had revealed it on the phone before, and it was difficult to choose.

Fighting Platini, the odds of victory are unknown, but this will directly offend Blatter and others, but as he said, everyone is eager to get more power, but some people have a chance, and some people don't.

"A lot of times, I'm not as confident as I seem, I also lack some confidence, and occasionally I need some courage and encouragement." Yang Cheng didn't say it directly, because he knew that a person of Beckenbauer's level might not be able to stand being preached by others in person, even if it was the best New Year's friend.

"Whenever this happens, I ask myself, how can I not have confidence in myself when others have faith in me? If everyone thinks I can do it, but I don't think I can do it, then even I will look down on myself! ”

Smiling slightly, Yang Cheng continued: "Whenever I doubt myself, I think like this, the effect is not bad, all the way from Chemnitz to Kaiserslautern, to Inter Milan to Liverpool, and now to Real Madrid, you see...", he shook the medal in his hand in a show-off manner, "What a perfect medal!" ”

Beckenbauer laughed, but he knew in his heart what Yang Cheng was talking about.

"Annoying things aside, have you ever been to the airport to see a helicopter?"

Yang Cheng shook his head, "Have you seen it?" ”

"Well, great, but there's a big flaw!" Beckenbauer smirked.

Yang Cheng was stunned, there was a defect, so how to sit?

"It must be inconvenient to go to the toilet!" Beckenbauer said with some pranks.

Yang Cheng resisted the urge to laugh, and pointed at this old man seriously, "This bad joke is not funny at all, Franz!" But when he finished speaking, he laughed vigorously.

Emirates' leaders wanted to expand into the European market, and they wanted to sponsor the World Cup in addition to Arsenal, so they decided to provide Beckenbauer with a special plane with four pilots at his disposal, so that he could shuttle through every game in the World Cup.

Then when they heard about the cooperation between Yang Cheng and Bild, they felt that this move would also attract the attention of fans, so they also provided a special plane and pilot for free to Yang Cheng to help him catch up with the World Cup. River.

Well, going to the toilet is a big hassle!

"You know, there are a lot of forests and jungles in Germany, and if you really need to, you can go to some secluded places and ......," the unscrupulous old fellow was still laughing vigorously.

Yang Cheng shook his head vigorously, but he couldn't eat anything.

As the first female president in German history, Merkel has always been criticized by the German public for her lack of enthusiasm for football, which has caused her to lose a lot of support.

Really don't doubt this, in fact, for European and American countries, their heads of state gatherings, often talk about football the most, this situation even the US president is paying attention to, the reason why Japan sounded the clarion call for football reform, a large part of it is because their prime minister did not find the topic of football when talking to the European and US presidents, and only after returning made up his mind to reform Japanese football. …,

It is precisely because of this that Merkel attaches great importance to this year's German World Cup, not only arranging a sub-state banquet, but also awarding the medal to Yang Cheng, who is very recognized and loved by the German people, and she said that she will definitely go to the scene to watch every game of the German team.

Whether she really likes football, or just to win the support of some fans, Merkel's attention undoubtedly plays a very key role in German politics, and in a conversation at the state dinner, Merkel also personally dissected Beckenbauer and expressed his support for his candidacy for the UEFA presidency.

Yang Cheng could see that Beckenbauer was tempted, really tempted.

It's just that everyone likes to pretend, so he has repeatedly said that he will wait until after the World Cup.

That in itself is already suggested!

Of course, he hadn't said anything to the outside world, so Yang Cheng didn't say anything more.

After attending the dinner, Yang Cheng went to Kaiserslautern non-stop.

A city that is always giving birth to miracles, almost all the citizens have poured out of their nests to the Fritz on the hills, in front of the Walter Stadium, to welcome the arrival of their former hero, Caesar.

Here, they erected a statue of Yang Cheng to commemorate what he had done for Kaiserslautern during the three years of the year, including the miracle of the promotion horse and the Bundesliga treble, which no one has been able to match to this day.

There is no doubt that Yang Cheng is already the greatest head coach in Kaiserslautern history, except for Fritz and Walter brothers, and the most beloved head coach by fans, especially considering that it was Fritz who personally unveiled the statue of Yang Cheng. Walter's brother, Otter", Walter.

During the entire unveiling ceremony, Yang Cheng met and talked with Bremer, Melzer and others, and then sat down in the main store of Isola Bella in Kaiserslautern, had a dinner, and reminisced about what happened in this city back then.

However, despite the rush, Yang Cheng has not been idle, and the most he has done these days is to counter criticism of some of Real Madrid's players, such as Raul, Casillas, Zinedine Zidane and Beckham, especially Beckham.

Many media have bombarded Beckham in the newspaper for being old, useless, and not worthy of participating in the World Cup, but Yang Cheng fought back.

"I've never been able to understand their criticism of David, because in my opinion, David's skill is unquestionable, he doesn't dribble like other players, he lacks speed, but his running ability is amazing, and he only needs a light pass to be able to do a lot of things that others don't necessarily do, so in my opinion, he's great, very good!"

"Football is becoming more and more about simplicity and speed, because the more links you have from the moment you get the ball to the time you score the goal, the more players you are involved in, the easier it is to make mistakes, if you can find a way to get the ball to the opponent's penalty area the moment you get the ball, and then the striker scores, the whole process is almost perfect, no one can stop such a goal, because it's so simple, too fast!"

"Of course, we have to admit that Zinedine Zidane's football is art, impeccable art, but we shouldn't criticize Beckham's football for being terrible, in my opinion, they are just as good and they all deserve the same respect!"

Those media who want to quarrel with Yang Cheng have suffered a loss, at least every word he writes, he has a manuscript fee, which is much more profitable than the hard-working writer Chen Aiting who is in the codeword, and can unscrupulously fire guns, which will appear in the most conspicuous column of the Bild newspaper every day, and is sought after by countless fans, and those reporters must have lost badly.

That is, in the roar of artillery directed by Yang Cheng, the World Cup finally kicked off, and Yang Cheng did not forget his responsibilities in Real Madrid because of the World Cup!

After all, the World Cup is only part-time, and the Real Madrid coach is the right angle! ）
