Chapter 444: Chapter 444
The end of the season might just see a final showdown, a drama of brothers in conflict.
Moreover, Ronaldo has great commercial value. After moving to Milan, he can continue to hold a little box and smile foolishly, blossoming on and off the field, maximizing the value of this extraterrestrial.
Huang Kaiwen decided to call the young lady later in the evening.
This Ronaldo deal was quite cost-effective, able to play soccer and also endorse products.
The peerless Yellow Ball King, always delighted to help friends realize their self-worth.
Real Madrid finally signed Pepe.
The transfer fee was a whopping 30 million Euros.
Although more than half of that might be kickbacks.
Still, Huang Kaiwen was quite relieved: at least the bodyguards were all accounted for.
Missing out on Diego Costa, who lacked the skills to play at Real Madrid, wasn’t a big impact.
Considering Costa was primarily because forward talents are rare, like Costa, a professional who could disrupt the opposition on the front line, there are hardly a few in the entire history of soccer; unfortunately, his progress wasn’t fast enough, missing the chance to join Real Madrid.
In the afternoon, Huang Kaiwen intended to attend a Real Madrid commercial event.
But since Inzaghi gave him 50 [destiny points], the Yellow Ball King got injured and didn’t go.
Huang Kaiwen had already decided that next season, no matter how many [destiny points] he was short, he wouldn’t launch [High Priest].
Letting Inzaghi suffer a bit would teach him not to court death.
Otherwise, he would end up killing Inzaghi sooner or later.
The day after, Huang Kaiwen simply hosted the "Football Night" crew at home.
He handed out a few jerseys and sent them on their way.
The "Football Night" crew reached Real Madrid’s Valdebebas, and it was like Ms. Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
During the Calderon era, Real Madrid wasn’t doing well in many aspects, but it still depended on the comparison.
Even at their worst, they still had the foundation of a European powerhouse, a world apart from Asian teams’ infrastructure.
Dabinzi watched as Capello held a stopwatch by the sideline, and exclaimed in amazement, "The top club of the last century is different indeed, even timing how long it takes to bring out the stretcher."
"Yes, every detail is covered, small changes lead to significant shifts. The public always says Capello has tense relationships with stars, but from this, you can see how Capello managed to bring AC Milan to 58 unbeaten matches."
Liu Jianhong exclaimed.
Every visit to European clubs felt like stepping into a different world.
Finding it interesting, Liu Jianhong took a young interpreter to chat up Capello, asking, "We noticed the material of the stretcher is different. Does that have a special reason?"
Capello, with arms crossed and giving face to the Yellow Ball King, squeezed out a smile and said, "This is specially custom-made, ergonomic, and maximizes the reduction of secondary injuries to the players, greatly enhancing comfort."
"And why the stopwatch? Is there any special reason for that?"
"The speed of the medical team entering the field decides whether the players can receive treatment immediately. Real Madrid’s stars are world-class, they deserve the best care," Capello nodded.
Liu Jianhong asked a few more questions, then stepped aside.
When club president Baldano arrived with Stefano, they started giving them a systematic tour and filming.
Real Madrid valued the Asian market highly; the Galacticos Phase One had once visited China in 2003.
Although Florentino was no longer there, Calderon still prioritized the Asian market.
Asian sponsors were also genuinely investing, aiming to make money by tapping into the Asian market.
Once the crew left with Baldano, Capello looked down at his stopwatch, scowled, and shouted, "Five seconds? It takes you five seconds to get on the field? Damn it, in that time a kid could have been born! My minimum requirement is three seconds. If next time Kevin gets injured and you can’t enter the field within three seconds, every one of you can get the hell out!!!"
January 7, the crew had already left.
They had wanted to capture footage of Huang Kaiwen playing soccer.
Unfortunately, the Yellow Ball King had just taken the blame for Inzaghi and was still recovering.
La Liga reignited, and Real Madrid lost 0:2 away to La Coruña.
The once declining La Coruña, now victors against Real Madrid, were ranked 13th.
Losing to the 14th ranked team instigated further doubts about Capello.
World Sports News: "Real Madrid spent 77 million Euros in winter, but Capello has no notable achievements; perhaps they should rename it Kevin’s Victory Team, because without Kevin they hardly win."
AS Newspaper: "During Kevin’s injury absence, Capello must find other players to rely on, this performance won’t satisfy Real Madrid fans’ expectations."
While resting at home, Huang Kaiwen received a long-awaited visitor.
"Long time no see, Pele!"
Huang Kaiwen gave the soccer legend a warm hug and said.
"Long time no see, Kevin."
Pele smiled and said, "I was in the United Kingdom to see a doctor and thought I’d catch one of your games, but unfortunately, you were injured, so I had to stay a bit longer in Madrid."
"Madrid is not bad, the weather is nice, and the girls are passionate,"
The old soccer king Pele was also known for his amorous Brazilian ways.
He had openly admitted to loving many women in his lifetime.
Currently, Pele was in his second marriage; his wife was the Brazilian singer Axi Lemos.
"I am a good man now,"
Huang Kaiwen didn’t dwell on the topic.
In his personal life, Pele was much worse than Carlos.
He had many illegitimate children, and his first divorce was because his wife discovered he had fathered a daughter with the nanny.
"How did the check-up go?"
