Chapter 26 Yang Huan's Request
"Who is it? Don't you know I'm busy with a very important thing?"
As soon as Yang Huan answered the phone, he immediately vented the anger in his heart.
Fortunately, I was just teasing. What if I suddenly made a phone call when I was really doing something, what if my younger brother didn't dare to raise his head to meet someone?
So irresponsible!
Don't call without notice in advance, is there such a call?
"Master Huan, it's me." Sun Yue was aggrieved on the other side of the phone, and he was scolded by Cheng Xiang as soon as he answered the phone.
"Speak quickly if you have something to say, and let go of your fart." Yang Huan was not in the mood to talk nonsense with him.
"There are two things!" Sun Yue hurriedly said, "First, our marketing and public relations department hired a few people, and the second one, Alan Pardue was at St. Mary's Stadium, and he said he wanted to meet you."
"Alan Pardu?" Yang Huan was upset when he heard the name.
Sun Yue smiled over the phone, "Master Huan, I guess he's here to beg for mercy."
"Oh." Yang Huan understood as soon as he heard it, "Since he is begging for mercy, then he must be like a grandson begging for mercy, and let him wait over there, see when I am happy, young master, and then go to see him. "
"Understood!" Sun Yue also felt that this should be the case. Seeing this old boy's majestic appearance a few days ago, he felt unhappy in his heart.
"Oh, yes, today you all come to Jinhan Palace after get off work, no, it used to be called Jinhan Palace, now it's called Wangjiang Pavilion, come here, I'll invite you to dinner, and by the way, the people from Staplewood are also Call them all."
"Understood!" Sun Yue hurriedly agreed, it was good to follow the young master and invite him to dinner every three days.
"What about Alan Pardew? Please or not?"
"Leave him alone, let him wait."
After speaking, Yang Huan hung up the phone, and even turned off the phone.
"Alan Pardew came to beg for mercy?" Zhang Ning guessed from Yang Huan's words.
"Well, this old boy used to be arrogant and proud, but now he doesn't frustrate his spirit, how can I get along in the future?"
Zhang Ning's face is full of black lines, does he really think he is a gangster, big brother?
"Actually, don't embarrass him too much. After all, he is British and has a local household registration. If you embarrass him too much, you are afraid that when the time comes, the joy will turn into sorrow, and the advantage will turn into a disadvantage."
The human heart is the most elusive thing, and sometimes it is indiscriminate at all.
"What are you afraid of? He was so arrogant back then, and I don't want to save face now. Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
Zhang Ning shrugged, she just reminded Yang Huan.
Sometimes she also understands that Yang Huan seems to be doing things nonsense, but in fact he has his own set of logic and principles of doing things.
In fact, he is not what it seems on the surface.
"Don't look at me like this, I'm afraid you can't help but fall in love with me!" Yang Huan saw Zhang Ning staring at him, so she simply made eye contact with her.
"Fuck!" Zhang Ning scolded, and continued to sit down and do things.
Hearing the beauties swearing swear words was also a pleasure, and Yang Huan made a decision on the spot with high enthusiasm for work.
For example, order all the dining tables in Wangjiang Pavilion to a brand, all in Chinese, such as benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, trustworthiness, loyalty, filial piety, filial piety, and prudence.
There is also the consumption level of restaurants.
Yang Huan directly booked the per capita consumption of 80 pounds, which is still a small gap compared with the top restaurants in London, but in Southampton, it is considered a high consumption level.
Zhang Ning argued with Yang Huan for this price, but in the end he was unable to compete with Yang Huan.
Time passed in the quarrel and bickering between the two, as well as Yang Huan's occasional verbal molestation.
When night fell, the staff at St. Mary's Stadium and Stapleswood all received news, and they all arrived at Wangjiang Pavilion, which is no longer called Jinhan Palace. Huang Tianshun received the notice early and kept going. to prepare, and then hustle and bustle in the kitchen.
The arrival of these people just gave Huang Tianshun and the chefs a chance to try the dishes, and Yang Huan opened up a generous reward system, so they began to show their magical powers one by one, and they all came up with their own unique skills.
The dishes were brought out, and the team couldn't wait to feast on each other. The atmosphere of the entire Wangjiang Pavilion suddenly became very lively. Even Bielsa, who had just arrived, was the first to experience such a scene. It felt very novel. A little excited.
Yang Huan dragged Zhang Ning, accompanied by Nicola Cortez and Sun Yue, and toasted table by table. Considering that the team had already started training, everyone didn't drink alcohol, and they all drank freshly squeezed juice instead. It didn't decrease.
In the midst of the joy and happiness, Cash Harris led a British man in a suit and ties from outside.
"Master Huan." Cash Harris found Yang Huan who was following Zhang Ning.
"Kish, why are you here?" Yang Huan stood up enthusiastically, "This is..."
"I'm here to introduce you." Cash Harris immediately pointed to the Englishman in a suit and leather shoes, who looked about sixty years old, "Mr. Howard Wilkinson, Chairman of the British Coaches Union."
Coaches Union President!
As soon as Yang Huan heard the name, he immediately guessed the reason and stretched out his hand with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Wilkinson."
It is estimated that this chairman is the rescuer invited by Alan Pardue.
"Hello, Mr. Yang Huan, I have been in China for a few months, and coached the team in Mr. Yang Huan's hometown of Longhai City. Is this a fate?" Wilkinson does not have a governing body chairman. of majesty and arrogance.
Yang Huan eats soft and not hard. If you are polite to him, he will be polite to you.
"I know that even now, there are still many Chinese fans who think that Mr. Wilkinson is the best foreign teacher that Longhai City has ushered in. Unfortunately, this fate is too short."
"Yeah, it's a pity." Wilkinson was helpless when he talked about what happened back then.
"Is it convenient for Mr. Yang Huan? Let's talk outside?"
"Please!"
Cash Harris knew what they were going to talk about, and it wasn't his turn to be involved, so he stayed for dinner.
The two walked out of Wangjiang Pavilion, left the hustle and bustle, and began to feel the tranquility and elegance of Southampton.
Walking to the river bank, grabbing the guardrail, the salty and wet sea breeze blows towards my face, and there is a faint sound from the pier, where the waves drive the yachts and sailboats to rise and fall.
At this moment, Yang Huan remembered his own Sunseeker yacht, and thought to himself that he had to buy one and put it in Southampton.
"Mr. Yang Huan, I believe you are clear about my intentions." Wilkinson didn't beat around the bush, but cut to the chase.
"Yes, I know."
"What do you mean?"
Yang Huan hummed and smiled, "Do you think I'll let him go like this? Is it possible?"
Without waiting for Wilkinson to say anything, Yang Huan continued: "I respect English football very much, but I would never respect Alan Pardue, because I don't see anything in this person that deserves my respect, because He also didn't respect me at all, otherwise he wouldn't do such a thing."
"At the time he attacked me recklessly, attacked my team, and even attacked my motherland. None of you stood up to stop it, but now, I have redressed my grievances by my own strength and washed away my grievances. When the slanderers paid the price, you jumped out and told me, that's all?"
"Do you think this is fair to me?"
Wilkinson sighed, and Alan Pardue really went too far.
Speaking of which, the chairman of the coaches union is also very sad. For this matter, he specially found Cash Harris, and then contacted Yang Huan through Cash Harris. Who knew that Yang Huan could not get through on the phone and the phone was turned off. Distraught, he came straight from London to Southampton.
Outside the St. Mary's Stadium just now, he met Alan Pardew, who still had the demeanor of a famous English coach, like a wild dog abandoned on the side of the road, at a loss.
But all of this is his own fault!
"I can understand your feelings, Mr. Yang Huan, but please also understand that football has always followed the rules of football, and we have never advocated judicialization of matters in the field of football, because we have always believed that excessive judicial Intervening will destroy the existing structure of football, which is what all football practitioners and fans do not want to see."
Yang Huan knew this.
Back then, the Bosman Act was a special case. Later, whether it was the EU labor law or some laws in other countries, it opened up privileges in the field of football, and even the Bosman Act, which was talked about by countless fans, this player In the end, it will also be difficult to continue to have a foothold in football.
This is an unspoken rule of European professional football.
"So what?" Yang Huan was surprised, it had nothing to do with him.
Wilkinson smiled and said, "I was thinking that we might be able to punish Alan Pardue in other ways, without the need to use justice, because this is about the authority and independence of the football governing body, you should be able to Do you understand our difficulties?"
Yang Huan thought about it, he just wanted to teach Alan Pardue a painful lesson, and he never thought about driving anyone to a corner. Besides, he really didn't take Alan Pardue seriously. inside.
"My request is very simple!" Yang Huan also offered his own conditions, "First of all, he and his team must publish apology letters in all newspapers, apologize for all the irresponsible remarks he made before, and clarify In fact, this is the premise, and if this one cannot be discussed, then there is no need to discuss it.”
Wilkinson thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, I promise to do it for him."
"You also talk about the content of the punishment. I will listen to it. If it is acceptable, I will agree."
"Six months of suspension, 500,000 pounds in indemnity, this money is used to compensate for Southampton's losses." Wilkinson was clearly prepared.
Yang Huan shook his head, "The half-year ban is too short, and the compensation of £500,000 is too small."
"What do you mean?"
"One year ban, £1 million in compensation!"
Wilkinson heard a bit of a wry smile. Alan Pardue was not a rich man, and he was suspended and fined. Didn't this cost him his entire net worth?
However, this can be regarded as a painful lesson for him, let him learn to be good in the future, and know who can be provoked and who can't be provoked.
"Okay, I can also promise on his behalf."
"Alan Pardew has his character, and I will not be stingy. I don't want that one million pounds, donate it to the FA, and I donate another one million pounds myself, a total of two million pounds, to help England invest in youth development. training program.”
Wilkinson is a little surprised. One million pounds is enough to bring in a very good player, so why not?
And donate another £1 million?
What kind of thinking logic is this?
But soon, he understood that Yang Huan didn't want money at all, what he wanted was fame, an excellent reputation!
"Okay, I promise!" If Wilkinson doesn't agree to such a good thing, the people who go back to the FA are afraid that he will be divided.
The entire English football world knows that the Premier League has money, but the English Football League is always poor.
Two million pounds, for the FA, there are too many things to do, especially now that the London Olympics is about to usher in, there are more places to spend money.
"Mr. Yang Huan, although we meet for the first time, I have to say that you are very special."
"Really?" Yang Huan accepted this compliment with a smile, he always liked to be praised.
"This is my business card. If you have anything to do in the future, just look for me. I may be able to say a few words in many places." Wilkinson had a good impression of Yang Huan and handed him his business card.
Yang Huan took it and put it into his pocket without looking at it. A question suddenly came to his mind.
"Mr. Wilkinson, can you help me get an extra quota for a special talent clause?"
