Chapter 34 Strange Policies
Although Chang Sheng still remembers that Pavin played the main force this season, but when he started playing the main team, Chang Sheng doesn't remember this.
If in the opener, it is not Pavon who starts, but the experienced Elgra, then things will not be secondary.
The winning plan is all aimed at Pavon, so Pavon has to be on the field. To put it in layman's terms, Pavon is the Achilles heel of the invincible giant of Real Madrid.
In Pavon's absence, they have no weakness.
But how do you know if Pavon will play?
It's three days before the league starts.
Maybe even Bosque hasn't decided on a starting lineup yet.
How could he know?
But it doesn't really matter if you know it or not, because Chang Sheng has a way to get Pavon to start......
It's a very evil thing to say, as if Chang Sheng would have some kind of magic.
But in reality it's just a very simple agitation.
When he was in Getafe, Chang Sheng used it once, and it worked well.
In Valencia, Chang Sheng intends to repeat his old tricks.
There is a very important premise for the use of radical generals, and the target he is aimed at must be confident enough, even conceited, and cannot listen to the opinions of others, thinking that he is a god who can decide everything.
Coincidentally, the president of Real Madrid FC Florentino. Mr. Perez fits the bill......
※※※
Florentino was beautiful, but also depressing.
Most people only saw him in front of people, but they didn't care about the criticism of him in the media and football circles.
He spent $56.1 million last summer to buy Figo, setting a record for the highest transfer fee in world football.
At that time, it caused a shock in the football world.
Unexpectedly, after a season, he did not retreat at all. unexpectedly used $64.4 million to set a new transfer fee record for himself and won Zidane.
The whole of European football was plunged into the "White Terror".
A lot of criticism of him and Real Madrid has emerged. Basically, he was criticized for his gold-dollar policy, which shook the very foundation of the sport - at this time, the invasion of football by capital was not as crazy as later generations. Even if there is capital to buy a football club, it has to be concealed, like a rat crossing the street, once it is discovered, everyone shouts and beats it.
That was the case with Murdoch's takeover of Manchester United.
It's like a few years later, the European teams basically opened their thighs and groaned at those oil capitals: "Hurry! Come on! I can't wait! ”
Fans are even more eager to have a rich owner in charge of the team.
Ten years from now, Florentino is what everyone is used to. But now, he, the "pioneer", has become the target of thousands of people.
Real Madrid, the golden signboard, has a tendency to be spurned and despised. Determined to be San Diego. How could Florentino, the president of a club like the Bernabeu, turn a blind eye to this?
Naturally, he couldn't watch Real Madrid's reputation stink in his hands.
So in order to curry favor with the media. To please people in the football circle, he threw out the idea of a "genius".
That's the "Zidanegavon policy", or "Wonder Policy" for short, oh no, it's the "Zipa policy".
The specific meaning of the Zipa policy will not be explained. In short, it was an epoch-making proposal, and it was also eye-catching.
If you don't have the eye to see through the fog of history, many people really think that Florentino's policy is a genius idea that can solve Real Madrid's problems.
In fact, there were many people who believed that Real Madrid could perfectly solve the problem of superstars and youth conflicts that plagued countless clubs by relying on this Zipa policy.
Real Madrid fans rushed to tell each other, excited and excited by the genius of their president.
And in the first two years, Pavon was really competitive and performed well. In the first year of Zipa's policy, although Real Madrid lost the league championship and the Copa del Rey championship, they won the ninth Champions Cup, which was a long face for Florentino. They won the league the following season.
But when Bosque left, Queiroz took charge of Real Madrid, which began the end of Zipa's policy. At that time, even the president of Real Madrid, Florentino, was saddened, let alone this deformed policy.
But now, Florentino didn't know what was going on, so he looked at the articles touting his policy and felt proud.
Who says I don't understand football?
Can someone who doesn't understand football come up with such a solution?
It was at this moment that his eyes fell on a newspaper.
A corner of the newspaper Marca appeared with a news headline.
"Valencia's new coach often openly says that the Zipa policy is useless and worthless!"
He froze for a moment, then a smug smile froze on his face.

Turning back the clock a day ago, midweek was the time for Valencia's regular press conference.
Most of them were previously Valencia coach Julio. Redondo attended with one or two players.
Because Chang Sheng was so busy, he was so focused on training that he didn't bother to fight with reporters.
Although some reporters expressed dissatisfaction with this, they finally accepted it. He didn't just get up and pat his ass and walk away, as he did in Getafe.
Many of these journalists are accustomed to winning and those who are local to Valencia know what it is like to be a man who is not afraid of any threat at all, through their coaches from the Madrid area.
So the journalists are honestly participating by an ordinary coach of Valencia Julio. Press conference hosted by Redondo.
But this time, Chang Sheng came in person.
The reporters present were stunned for a moment, and they were very surprised.
In fact, Chang Sheng came to the press conference to light the fuse.
At the press conference, he ridiculed Florentino's rather proud "Zidanega Pavon policy" as a self-righteous megalomaniacal rubbish, useless and worthless. The only value of existence is to let people know how ignorant Florentino is......
When Chang Sheng lashed out at Real Madrid and Florentino from above, the reporters below were stunned, and they grew their mouths. A demented look stared at Chang Sheng.
A lot of people have only one thought in their heads: Does he know exactly what he's talking about?
Florentino just threw out such a Zipa policy, and it was the time when the spring breeze was proud. You go up and give someone a stuffy stick......
You've offended Real Madrid!
At this time, many reporters realized that the person in front of them also had a vendetta against Real Madrid......
It turns out that he has never forgotten!
※※※
At the press conference, Chang Sheng scolded Florentino's "Zidanegavon policy" as indecent and useless.
In fact, he said seriously, the "Zidanega Pavin policy" does have many problems, but it is not to the point of "useless".
For example, this policy does give hope to many players in Real Madrid's academy. You must know that later, when Florentino himself found that the Zipa policy could not be implemented, he chose to buy a large number of defensive players from other teams, such as he bought Graveson and Sergio one after another. When a defensive stalwart like Ramos is concerned, it is equivalent to closing the path of Real Madrid's academy players to the first team.
Since then, few players from Real Madrid's academy have played in the first team.
Real Madrid's academy has truly become a wedding dress for others. He has cultivated a number of main players for teams such as Getafe, Valencia and Sevilla. Real Madrid continue to be the big team in the transfer market every season.
But he had to scold this policy as useless, because in order for him to completely anger Florentino, he first had to become a mad dog.
If you have reservations, if you don't put it in place, won't you lose all your efforts?
So Chang Sheng had to turn himself into a mad dog. Crazy, unreasonable, inexplicably biting Florentino.
This will naturally leave a bad impression on him in the hearts of many people, especially when he scolded the Zipa policy without any substantive content, it is pure scolding, all kinds of belittling, but not to mention why it is useless and why it is garbage.
This kind of scolding can easily make people look down on him.
But this is the price that must be paid for victory, and it doesn't matter if you win.
The media demonized him. It doesn't mean anything to him, and he doesn't lose a single hair because of it.
Only victory, only victory, can give him what he wants.
Victory is his sword of Shang Fang, the gold medal of avoiding death.
No matter how good your personal image is, it's useless.
After Chang Sheng sprayed, he had to wait.
Wait for Real Madrid's side to react.
This wait is anxious. Tormenting.
He could not have known from any other source whether it had worked, no one would have told him, and it would have been impossible to tell him.
He can only judge by the starting lineup whether his painstaking toss has paid off.
As long as Pavon starts, no matter who his partner is, it shows that his criticism of Florentino has worked.
If Pavon doesn't play, he's finished...... All the hard work of preparation came to naught, and he could only bite the bullet and go head-to-head with Real Madrid.
Chang Sheng did not wait for the result, but first waited for the criticism from the Real Madrid hierarchy to criticize him.
Florentino naturally disdained to come out in person, but he had no shortage of loyal men.
Real Madrid's general manager, Butragueno, stood up to speak for his president.
"Zidanegapavon's policy has been carefully studied by us...... I believe this is a good policy that is good for the development of young players and also for the business. I don't think Mr. Chang has any reason to denigrate it so much. You know, he hasn't said a single plausible reason until now......"
Then Florentino's former running mate Baldano also came out and mocked Chang Sheng's performance in the summer transfer window: "We only bought one player in the summer, but it was worth the money. And often in the transfer market everywhere...... To be honest, the people he bought except for Pep Guardiola, the others ......" Baldano did not continue out of politeness, but the thick disdain in his tone was still clear.
Butragueno and Baldano are both big names who can only be seen in the news before, legends of giants like Real Madrid.
I didn't expect that now I would "deign" to talk to myself.
But Chang Sheng didn't feel honored at all.
Because the other party is scolding him!
Chang Sheng's answer to this is very simple: "Don't say anything about it, we will see the real chapter in the game!" ”

A day later, at Valencia's pre-match press conference when they hosted Real Madrid, manager Bosque announced their starting line-up for Real Madrid.
Chang Sheng was waiting outside the press conference at this time, and someone inside naturally passed on information to him.
So two minutes after Bosque announced the starting list, Chang Sheng got a scribbled handwriting, which looked like Real Madrid's starting list hastily written on the spot.
He didn't look at the rest of the place first, and just swept his gaze to the backline.
When he saw the name below Hierro, he couldn't help but clench his fists and wave it.
Francisco. Pavon!
He was right!
