Chapter 186: Sweeping China

With a huge cooperation plan, Jonk will not only serve as a spokesperson, but also participate in future football cooperation projects.

Led by Jonker, Evergrande Group will set up a football club, and 10% of the club's shares will be owned by Jonk, and as a responsibility, Jonk only needs to dedicate a little time to coach the players in the club.

In Mendes' view, coaching players or something is simply an unconditional condition, and there is no difference between giving away shares for nothing.

After that, there will be a football school, and the same conditions and obligations are simply pie in the sky.

The more miraculous things are, the more cautious they must be, Mendes talked with Chairman Xu all afternoon, and went back to the office still thinking about the details.

The football club's affairs are definitely not to be talked about, the detailed plans are already there, and the investment of no less than 100 million RMB per year is nothing, which is nothing in Europe, but it is definitely a big deal in Asia.

Winning the AFC Champions League in three years is a bit crazier than Chelsea in Europe!

Besides, the original endorsement contract is even more impossible to refuse, 10 million euros a year, only two days of commercial activities, and an advertisement!

There are no requirements at all, and the money is almost the same, and it is amazing to have such a rich cooperation without much business.

And the sincerity of the other party is shocking, everything is just waiting for Jonk to sign a contract, and the rest of the things can be operated, what a huge business move.

Mendes needs to consult the players themselves, and after screening to the bottom, there is only Evergrande, and the most important thing is that. Evergrande is a powerful company, and the local industry alone can rank among the top 10 in China.

Courageous and sincere. There is still strength, then only Jonk nods!

This discussion was going on at an astonishing pace, and in two days, it was time for Jonk to make a final decision.

Jonk was also surprised to receive a call from Mendes, and he obviously couldn't believe that such a good thing would be a liar. It's no different from taking a huge endorsement fee for nothing.

After hearing it, he also understood that the other party was very sincere. In fact, Evergrande is also gambling, betting that Jonke's huge influence in China can bring unlimited business opportunities, and then use football clubs and football schools to continue this effect.

If it succeeds, it will be a win-win situation. Jonk is also not much at risk. Mendes is also bullish on this gamble.

Then what else to say, let's come to London to sign a contract!

Jonker, the shopkeeper who shook his hands, moved his mouth, signed a letter, and he had to die of busyness over there.

In stark contrast to the huge contract price, only a few media from Huaxia were present at the signing ceremony, and the mainstream media in the world did not care at all, and a Huaxia real estate company was looking for a spokesperson. If it is not attractive to people from other countries, it is natural that there will not be too many people cheering.

But. CCTV's reporting team was very excited to cover the signing ceremony throughout the process, and Duan Xuan also made a cameo appearance as a live emcee.

After the simple and solemn signing ceremony, Mendes has added 10 million euros to the account opened for Jonker.

Bullish, I have never seen such a bullish company, the contract is signed for 5 years, and the football and real estate industries are guaranteed priority renewal.

50 million euros! Many players don't get so much money in their entire careers, and Jonk has been smiling happily lately, a bit of an upstart, the top vodka is drunk and poured into a bottle, and the luxury car is ten in one go, but think about Abu's extravagant yacht, what is he!

YY will get it at once, it really costs money Jonk really doesn't know how to spend it, most of the money is back under the supervision of Mendes, let the old man invest, continue to be the shopkeeper, look back at the numbers are enjoyable, money is more and more like a set of numbers, it looks a little exciting, but in fact he is still a kicker, what to do and what to do.

Good things continue to be good on Jonker's side, while Chelsea continue to be sung.

Chelsea, who had a smooth start to the season, have recently suffered consecutive defeats and are at a low ebb, with some problems starting to emerge in the squad, such as Arjen Robben, who was popular last season. Intermittent injuries have made it unpleasant for him and Jose Mourinho, and Dutch boss Basten has been very scathing about Chelsea.

At the same time, Robben's Dutch compatriots are watching from the sidelines, waiting for the situation to be more stalemate and take Robben Ronald to his tent and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman.

Arjen Robben has been in mediocre form at club level this season. Robben was substituted in the Champions League away to Betis, the eighth time he has been substituted midway this season. He played the full 90 minutes only twice in all 18 Chelsea games. In the last round of the Premier League against Manchester United, the injured Robben was not included in the list. The team doctor also said the exact injury, but it was suspected that it was caused by an old spinal injury.

After joining Chelsea for £12 million, Arjen Robben suffered ankle and foot injuries respectively, while calf and tendon injuries continue to plague him to this day, leaving Mourinho questioning his will.

Robben's reliance on his parents further corroborates Mourinho's view that Robben's parents were always with him, and while it was good for him to settle down in the UK, some argued that it hindered his career development. Robben obeyed his father, probably because Robben had testicular cancer as a child, and the Robben family refused to accept some unconventional medical methods. Some at Stamford Bridge believe that Robben's biggest problem is mental.

His status in the dressing room doesn't seem to be as good as it used to be, with some team-mates believing he is not 100 per cent committed to the team. Jose Mourinho may agree with this sentiment, praising Duff's recovery from injuries a few days ago: "He has set a good example of being a strong man and recovering quickly from his injuries. ”

However, according to the Sun newspaper earlier, Robben was angry with Mourinho's attitude, believing that being too anxious would only lead to the destruction of martial arts. Robben has been in much better form with his country this season than he has at club, with Basten admonishing Chelsea: 'We don't know the cause of these injuries, we have a lot of young players who are not as injury-prone as Robben. Chelsea would do well to be patient and let him fully recover before playing, even if it takes two or three weeks. Arjen Robben is very important for us to play the World Cup. Interestingly, Mourinho, who has recently been involved in a war of words with Cruyff and Wange, chose to remain silent on Basten's remarks.

Robben's recent situation has attracted the attention of at least two of his compatriots. Tottenham boss Joel said it. Arjen Robben is the best player in the Netherlands since Cruyff. A few days ago, the Dutch website "Football Belt" quoted Joel as saying that if Robben had more problems. Joel, who describes himself as "Tottenham have money to spend" and "can buy expensive players", will "make a huge offer". However, The Independent believes that Joel may be more interested in Feyenoord striker Ayter Kuat.

It is also reported that Barcelona are also tracking Robben's dynamics and if he is still unhappy until next summer, Barca will make a move. Rijkaard is a fan of Robben and has been on the hunt for a wide player, having made a bid for the Irishman last year when Duff appeared to be in an unstable position. But Chelsea refused.

However, Robben himself had a place to give authority. He has been photographed leaning against a sofa at home, with several towels emblazoned with Arsenal and Tottenham.

Other players. After the nearly two-week international break, Jose Mourinho found his Chelsea situation even more precarious.

On Tuesday, after the return of 14 internationals who had already finished their international competitions, Chelsea reluctantly began training with the whole team. But Cech, Carvalho, Del. Orno, Drogba and other main players have to continue to play in the national team. Even Ibranovic, who suffered a slight calf strain, will be injured in the warm-up match against Qatar after a long journey. Once Ibrahimovic's injuries worsened. With unavailable for the weekend's league game against Newcastle, Chelsea will face a situation where they will be left unreplaced with a starting line-up line as Didier Drogba is suspended this weekend after accumulating five yellow cards.

Chelsea rivals Newcastle have been on the rise of late, with Shearer, Boumson, Bowyer and even Luke all set to return from injury. It won't be easy for Chelsea to win at home, and with another miss, the suspense of the Premier League title race is no longer just a good hope for other teams.

The same problem happened again with Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson. Manchester United's lone arrow Ruud van Nistelrooy has been injured in the Dutch national team and it is unclear whether he will be available for the weekend; Arsenal's 20-year-old Frenchman Clichy suffered a broken foot in Friday's Under-20 match between France and England and is out for at least two months. Of course, this "collateral injury" is not only in the Premier League: Van Bommel was injured in pre-match training with Italy. Take a break of four to six weeks; Inter and Brazil are at loggerheads over Ade; Real Madrid coach Luxemburg was called up due to too many players and even moved the idea of resigning; French head coach Domenech also went to Italy to negotiate with Fabio Capello on the call up of the French international...... These are the contradictions and accidents caused by the latest round of international breaks.

Conflicts have been going on for a long time, and the club managers who suffer from them usually hurt more deeply. The deeper the hatred.

Arsene Wenger, for example, is far from saying that Hleb suffered a knee injury in Belarus and Scotland this season; Thierry Henry was injured in a match between France and Ireland; Campbell suffered a recurrence of old injuries in the England and Austria matches. With Kerr's injury, it's no wonder that Arsene Wenger has never been interested in players being called up by the national team, and he has a deep hatred for commercial warm-up games.

Ferguson simply called the current World Cup a "second-rate competition" with a lower level than the Champions Cup. Perhaps after this weekend, it will be Mourinho who will come out and scold the most.

The wages are paid by the clubs, but the money is taken by the football management group.

Jose Mourinho has the same reason to complain as Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson, but the national team managers have rarely begun to blame the club because of Chelsea.

Dutch coach Basten and Argentine coach Pekerman have taken aim at Jose Mourinho. 'Chelsea relied too heavily on Arjen Robben last season, often sending him on before he was fully recovered from his injury, which made him too tired and even more difficult to recover from an old injury. This season, however, Robben has not been able to recover from injury for a while, but his confidence has been hit. In Basten's view, it was the Portuguese's inappropriate use of Robben that caused the Dutch genius to not only be physically vulnerable, but also psychologically close to the "glass man".

Chelsea's financial resources allow them to be top-notch players from the start-up to the bench, but that's where the problem lies. Good players are not only for the club, but also for the national team, but also for the fans.

In terms of maximizing the talent of the players, Mourinho did use Robben badly, Ibrahimovic badly, as well as Gala, the transferred Kezman and the abandoned Mutu. So, in the case of Chelsea, the issue of the use of internationals for clubs and national teams has become more complicated.

However, these are only some objective factors. The biggest concern comes from the club's upper echelons, who have been unable to sit still after a series of defeats. And a super-heavyweight: Chelsea's "master" Roman Abramovich.

The British newspaper The Sun was the first to reveal the news on the front page, saying that Abou was unhappy with the Blues' recent sharp decline in results, and the article also revealed that Abou had sent his right-hand man to the Chelsea training base for a "long talk" with Jose Mourinho. The Mirror reported in more detail on the incident, stating that Abu had issued a "Warrant No. 1", ordering his right-hand men to find out the cause of Chelsea's illness.

It is reported that the leader who was ordered to carry out the investigation this time is definitely weighty. He was Chelsea's chief financial officer and board member Eugene Tenebom, who was the one with gray, slightly bald hair. The businessman with gold-rimmed glasses called the Italian Ranieri and said, "Hey, is it Mr. Ranieri?" I'm sorry, we can't continue to work together. This time he was on a special mission at the Chelsea training base for a series of special operations.

According to the Mirror. Teneboom on the day he arrived at the training base. There was face-to-face communication with every Chelsea staff member and every player on the pitch. Even the champion team members who have seen a big scene have never seen this one a few times.

First of all, it is certain that the appearance of Tenebom will not have any impact on Mourinho's managerial position, at least for the time being, Abbu is very confident and supportive of Mourinho.

However, Tenebum also sent a message to the Chelsea people: Abu is a football amateur, but he definitely does not run Chelsea with a playful mentality, and it may be okay to lose once in a while. But a chain of failures must not be allowed. As a boss, businessman, and successful man, Abu has an almost insane desire for victory in his bones. In the two years in office, the team was overhauled twice. Generously throwing hundreds of millions of pounds, Abu had only one goal: victory, successive victories.

However, Tenepsom did not see Mourinho this time.

After the defeat to Manchester United, Chelsea's internationals returned home for play-offs or warm-up games, while Jose Mourinho returned to his native Portugal to join his family and temporarily leave Stamford Bridge.

He has always been close to his boss Abou and, according to Mourinho himself, from the moment he joined Chelsea, he developed the habit of reporting in detail, not just verbally, but in writing. Jose Mourinho once said: "I have to explain to him [Abu] what I want to do and not send another person, and even write a written report that they can understand every time." "Jose Mourinho is a man of principles and he certainly doesn't forget his 'special habits', especially after three defeats.

Jose Mourinho, who is far away in Portugal, said not long ago: "Chelsea will defend the title, I have no worries about the future. The defeat to Manchester United was my 50th game in charge of Chelsea, and before that we had been unbeaten in 40 games. There is no shame in defeating, on the contrary, Old Trafford showed the best side of Chelsea, we were champions last season, we are now leaders and will successfully defend our title in the future. Losing is losing, and this kind of thing can happen at any time. We're 40 games unbeaten in the league and it's time to end it and in the best way possible. ”

If Abou's decision to send his right-hand man to investigate Chelsea's internal problems had happened after Jose Mourinho had handed in his report, the situation would have been different, and the Russians must have smelled something strange about it, and the media has been frequently hyped about the negative news that Robben was being targeted by other teams or had a feud with Mourinho, so in addition to communicating with the manager, Abou also wanted to hear what the player had to say.

Last season, Chelsea's successive victories and invincibility covered up a lot of contradictions, and Mourinho's unique personality and coaching methods also injected fresh elements into the Premier League and even the world of football, but the madman is still a man after all, not a god, he cannot guarantee that he and his team are victors every time, when the novelty gradually fades, the "tricks" are becoming less and less, and some players are gradually degrading because they can't withstand the huge pressure (such as Glen Johnson), the time to really test Mourinho and Chelsea is coming.

Far from it, the closest hurdle is Saturday's Premier League fixture, where the Blues' weakest defence of recent times will face a strong onslaught from the Shearer-Owen duo, and whether they can survive the immediate crisis will be revealed on Saturday.

With Chelsea still having to play Newcastle at the weekend, there was no suspense about Jonker's start, and the fact that Chelsea were unavailable up front and Jonker was the only option was somewhat ironic for a strong Chelsea, but it was a bit of an irony.

However, it was a surprise that Joe Cole opened the scoring with a 3-0 win over Newcastle when he burst into the box with a volley into the far corner after a second-half counter-attack. Jose Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines, the absence of Owen and Alan Shearer meant Newcastle's lack of attacking power, Chelsea were waiting for only the first goal, and this goal basically meant victory in hand.

It was Joe Cole's fourth goal in the league and when comparing playing time and efficiency, he was the most efficient of the four wingers.

Wright-Phillips played in 12 games, five starts, and a total of 525 minutes, although it has yet to open; Arjen Robben started five of nine games and played 425 minutes, scoring just one goal against Charlton Athletic; Duff has performed better, starting 8 in 10 games and scoring 3 goals in 701 minutes, while Joe Cole has scored 4 goals in 654 minutes with 8 starts in 11 games, an average of 1 goal in 163 minutes is quite good efficiency (close to 1 goal in 2 games), and is in fourth place behind Frank Lampard and Jonk and Drogba among the more stable main players, almost entering the top three.

Listening to Mourinho's words after the game, Joe Cole was like a rebirth. 'I think now he's a player,' Mourinho said, 'and a year ago he was just a player with potential, now he's a real player. To be able to become a "player" in Mourinho's mouth, this is already quite a good evaluation, you must know that Mourinho himself said to Joe Cole a year ago: "You are not suitable for the Chelsea team!" ”

Joe Cole once revealed the awkward conversation to him. "What he [Mourinho] said at the time was that the way I played, I couldn't be part of his midfield system. I wrote down what he said and listened carefully to what he wanted me to do, and then I worked hard to get on the ball, including learning tactics and positioning, so I could say that I was forced into the starting line-up and now I want to stay here. ”

Thankfully, while Mourinho was training his toughness and defence, Joe Cole didn't lose his spirituality, and those fancy tricks gradually translated into good offensive efficiency. 'He's got everything he has now,' Mourinho continued after the game, and in his eyes Joe Cole has become an all-round player, "he's strong defensively now, he's very physical, and he's not losing his attacking prowess, and the skills that make him eye-catching are still there." Now he understands the game better and serves the whole team and we are very happy with him. ”

Like Joe Cole, Jonker is now Mourinho's favourite, scoring the last one goal with a volley from the left flank in the last minute of the game. Joe Cole's specialty is attacking with the ball, but Jonker is very versatile, he is the most versatile of Chelsea's four strikers, he can do anything, there is nothing he can't do, and his long-range shot is even more surprising.

In addition, long-term health is also a huge advantage, there is almost no need to worry about fitness, form, injuries, such players are loved by everyone, and Mourinho's love for Jork can be described as intensifying, especially after that conversation.

It's just that Joe Cole is the most brilliant person, and Jonk has been reduced to a supporting role, and many media outlets don't seem to notice a very critical issue, Jonk is sometimes brilliant, sometimes very low-key, so low-key that sometimes he doesn't even notice his goals.

But Chinese fans will not forget the players they chase, Jonk is already the spokesperson of football in China, what things about football will always be associated with Jonke, watching the Premier League on weekends is no longer Manchester United and Arsenal, Chelsea has become a fan favorite.

A series of changes came quickly, like a storm sweeping across the land of China. (To be continued......)
