Chapter 654: The Career
Speaking of the current European football, it is true that no one can compete with Platini.
For example, German celebrity, football emperor Beckenbauer.
The number one contributor to the 2010 World Cup in Germany, after the World Cup ended, he once joined FIFA to work, and was seen by many as preparations for succeeding Blatter in the future.
In fact, as early as 2007, when UEFA was running for the presidency, Beckenbauer's voice for running was very high, but the football emperor's goal was always locked in Zurich, which is where the FIFA headquarters is located. So he gave up the competition with Platini, and in the end the young Frenchman was successfully elected.
But what is interesting is that after entering FIFA in 2010, just one year later, Beckenbauer announced his resignation.
After that, the football emperor kept a low profile, more just appearing in the affairs of Germany and Bayern Munich.
And Yang Huan also got news that Beckenbauer is also an important object of various investigations.
It can be seen from this that the possibility of the German celebrity threatening Platini is already very small and slim.
As the richest football league organization in the world, the president of UEFA, Platini's reputation, influence, and what he has done during his years in charge of UEFA are his bargaining chips. .
Platini himself was very clear about this, so after hearing Yang Huan's words, he was obviously moved.
At least both eyes revealed an uncontrollable longing and pursuit!
But the Frenchman is a shrewd person after all, he immediately covered up his inner desire, calmed down, shook his head and smiled.
"Master Huan, you are joking. How can I be able to run for the chairman of FIFA?"
"Really?" Yang Huan laughed, "You really think so?"
Platini didn't dare to speak anymore.
Sometimes, being polite is polite and demeanor, but if you are more polite, it will become hypocrisy and affectation, which may backfire.
"Michelle, according to the information I have received and according to the current situation, it is a matter of time before Blatter collapses. I believe you will not object to my sentence!"
Platini also kept nodding,
If, as Master Huan said, the American judiciary is involved and there are undercover insiders in FIFA, then Blatter's downfall is really inevitable, and continuing to live on is just a little more time.
"For all those who aspire to be the president of FIFA, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, you may not be able to meet it again in your lifetime!"
Platini's eyes lit up when he heard it. As a shrewd man, he could of course see that this was a godsend opportunity.
Platini, as the president of UEFA, knows better than anyone how powerful the position of FIFA president is.
More importantly, he is now in the prime of life, only fifty-eight years old. If he is elected as the president of FIFA, he can work for twenty or thirty years like the previous FIFA presidents, and he will not retire until he is seventy or eighty.
As long as he thinks that he can take charge of such a huge organization as FIFA, Platini feels his blood boil.
More importantly, although the previous FIFA president was powerful, there is still a UEFA that is singing the opposite tune.
Even during the Blatter period, Platini was supported and relatively stable for a few years, but the independence of UEFA has not changed at all. FIFA's power tentacles have always been blocked outside UEFA's sphere of influence. .
But if Platini is elected president of FIFA now, the situation may be completely different.
Because with his current prestige and influence in UEFA, he can support a new chairman who takes orders from him.
By that time, he, the president of FIFA, will be the president with the greatest power and the most complete sphere of influence in history!
Just thinking about it makes people feel fanatical, and people can't help it!
Yang Huan was always sitting at the side, but he had a panoramic view of Platini's expression.
This person, no matter how calm and sophisticated he is, how shrewd he is, he can't help but reveal his true nature in front of critical moments that concern his own interests, or even his future.
Platini is a politician, an official fan, and an ambitious man!
After trying to understand this level, Yang Huan kept smiling, watching the yachts passing by on the sea outside the curtain wall, sipping a cup of cold coffee in front of him, waiting for the person sitting opposite That person took the initiative to speak.
If he was too enthusiastic at this time, it would not show his rarity for the young master.
On the contrary, he should put up his airs and let Platini take the initiative to beg him, so that the French will understand who is his biggest and most important benefactor, and then it will be much easier to do things in the future.
Platini seemed to be aware of this, and looked at Master Huan with some embarrassment, knowing in his heart that this was an excellent opportunity, if he missed it, there might never be a second time in his life.
So, after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth, "Master Huan, I want to fight for the position of chairman, can you help me?"
Yang Huan shook his head and laughed, "Michelle, the relationship between the two of us is too alien and too polite to say so!"
After a pause, Yang Huan continued: "Don't worry, if you want to stand for election, I will support you unconditionally. If you ask for money, give money, ask someone to give, I will use all resources to help you!"
Platini was really flattered, because he knew the ability of this young master Huan very well.
Among other things, Miracle Media has quite extensive contacts and influence in the football circle, and it is said that Master Huan has a very close relationship with News Corporation, which controls the world's largest media and newspaper industry.
In addition, Master Huan is also the behind-the-scenes boss of WeChat, the most popular social network in the world!
If it is said that Master Huan wants to use all resources to help him, then why is he afraid to do it?
"Master Huan, with your words, if I am elected, the FIFA president has my share, and you must have a share!" Platini also gave his promise in a timely manner.
For this kind of promise, Yang Huan usually just smiled and passed it, because who wouldn't make a verbal promise?
But he is not afraid that Platini will go back on his word at that time, because if he wants to play tricks, Platini is still far behind.
Besides, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is a paper tiger!
"Let's talk about these things later!"
Yang Huan smiled and waved his hands, "The most important thing for you now is your image!"
"Image?" Platini was a little strange.
This is to run for the chairman of FIFA, not to go to the draft, what kind of image do you want?
"Yes, the United States will conduct a judicial investigation, and the results will definitely come out within a year or two. By then, the international football world will be in chaos. Blatter is unreliable. Everyone needs a giant pillar to rely on!"
Platini's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he suddenly realized.
is not that right?
If it really comes to that time, if his image is conspicuous and dazzling enough, how can he escape the position of FIFA president? It’s almost impossible to choose!
"The past few FIFA presidents were all from Europe, so candidates from other continents will definitely use this as a weapon of attack, and attribute FIFA's corruption to Europeans to guide the public opinion of fans."
Platini also nodded, "Then what should we do?"
We, obviously, have already tied ourselves onto the big ship of Master Huan!
Yang Huan is also quite satisfied with him, and smiled, "It's very simple, hurry up and clear the relationship with FIFA!"
Platini frowned and shook his head, "This is a bit difficult, because I am the president of UEFA, and I must have a relationship with FIFA. How can I get rid of it?"
Yang Huan laughed out loud, "What I mean is clearing away, not this kind of clearing up."
"That is……"
"It's very simple. Now the public opinion is raging outside. Fans all over the world are watching every move of FIFA. However, FIFA lacks internal motivation and is obviously unwilling to investigate this matter in depth."
Platini nodded, this is well known.
"If at this time, you, Michel Platini, stood up as the president of UEFA, impassioned, denounced corruption within FIFA, and put pressure on FIFA, what would you say? "
"That's right!" Platini slapped his thigh hard, but he didn't expect it.
If he really wanted to do this, wouldn't fans all over the world remember him when the media all over the world publicized him?
In this way, establish an image of being determined to eradicate corruption with an iron fist, so that all fans will remember this image. In the second, it is to clear the relationship with FIFA’s Blatter. It is not afraid to attack Platini based on his identity as a human being.
After all, it was Platini who took the lead in putting pressure on FIFA and blasting corruption.
As for Europeans, this is even simpler. Which continent, country and region does not have good and bad people?
If it really kills a boatload of people with one shot, I'm afraid the fans will quit first!
"Master Huan, this trick is wonderful, it's wonderful!" Platini saw the sky through the clouds.
I feel like the future is bright!
Yang Huan chuckled, "Damning corruption is the most politically correct decision at the moment. You don't need to name names, you just need to establish your own iron fist against corruption, fight against the evil forces within FIFA, and at the same time resolutely promote international football. The image of the AFC reform and other aspects, then there is no problem!"
Platini kept nodding his head. These aspects all hit the crux of the current situation. Once they are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it will be of great benefit to his future campaigns.
Thinking of this, Platini's heart suddenly warmed up.
"Master Huan, do I need to do anything else?" Platini asked again.
Yang Huan nodded, "In FIFA, all members need to vote for the election of the chairman, so what you need to do next is to make good friends with each member country, and do everything you can to build good relations with them, in case you ascend to the top in the future , they were able to respond immediately!"
After hearing this, Platini showed a little embarrassment on his face.
"Don't worry, I will prepare for you in terms of funds and manpower!"
Platini's heart can be regarded as letting go, and with Master Huan coming forward, what else is there to worry about?
"You don't need to worry about other things, you just need to do these two things well, and leave the rest to me!"
After Yang Huan finished speaking, he laughed, looking very confident and calm.
Platini also felt Yang Huan's self-confidence, and immediately became excited, as if he had successfully become the president of FIFA.
He knew very well that if he wanted to sit in that position, he would have to rely on Young Master Huan.
Otherwise, Master Yihuan's contacts, financial resources and resources can completely support others to compete with him. By that time, even UEFA may be divided into two factions.
As for being elected, he also knew very clearly how he should repay Master Huan.
Even, he doesn't need to wait until he is elected president of FIFA, he can repay Master Huan now!
After all, the goals of the two are the same, they just pursue different things!
