Chapter 1,153: Clown

On the second day after Ferguson was hospitalized, there was an endless stream of people coming and going at the entrance of Manchester International Hospital.

This hospital is a famous aristocratic hospital in Manchester. The price of medical treatment is high and not affordable for ordinary people, so not many people usually see a doctor.

But since Ferguson was hospitalized, this place has become like a market, with more than ten times the number of people coming here every day!

Some of these people came to visit Sir Alex Ferguson’s relatives and friends, but they would not stay too long because they knew Sir Alex Ferguson needed to rest, so everyone was very sensible. Some even just took a look in front of the bed and talked to Kay. Xi said hello and left.

And the most annoying thing is a group of tabloid reporters who are like flies.

Sir Alex Ferguson's serious illness made these tabloid reporters find news points. They appeared near Ferguson's ward every day, and some even wanted to take the opportunity to rush into the ward and take a few precious photos.

This incident aroused great disgust from Cathy! It also made Manchester United very angry!

Hall of the "Manchester Evening News" was the only media authorized to report on Ferguson's condition. He fiercely criticized such unscrupulous reporters!

“Is human life more important, or news?”

“Is professional ethics more important, or newspaper sales?”

“Is dignity and face more important, or media effect?”

"He is the godfather of Manchester United and the former manager of Manchester United, but he is also an ordinary, seriously ill old man who needs a rest!"

These fierce words were accompanied by a photo of an unscrupulous reporter dressed in disguise to take voyeuristic photos, which aroused enthusiastic reactions from the whole society.

Hall's report received many responses. Both the general media and football people are now scolding these unscrupulous reporters, calling them scum in the media and scum of journalists!

And the side profile of the unscrupulous reporter taken by Hall looks a lot like Wolf from "The Sun"...

In this case, the hospital has also strengthened its security strategy. The Manchester United club even personally sent two security personnel to help the hospital maintain order. They also caught two tabloid reporters lurking in near the hospital ward and took them to the police station for severe treatment.

Through very decisive and severe measures, the hospital gradually came to a standstill.

From the second day after Sir Alex Ferguson was hospitalized, visitors began to arrive one after another.

The first to arrive were Sir Alex Ferguson's sons and grandsons. They put down their work, took turns accompanying the old man, and expressed their gratitude to Manchester United.

Then, it turned out that David Beckham from the United States also came, and members of Class 92 such as the Neville brothers and Bart also came to visit the old coach one after another.

Cantona, Keane and other players from the Ferguson era also came one after another to offer their sincere blessings to the old coach.

In the next two days, Rooney, Robin van Persie and other Ferguson disciples who were active in the professional arena also asked for leave from their respective clubs and made a special trip to visit the Jazz.

But Sir Alex Ferguson still hasn't woken up.

Everyone is getting more and more anxious, but there is nothing they can do.

The Sun's Wolf, who was reviled for breaking into a hospital, has been particularly anxious recently because he cannot get first-hand reports. He could only talk about which star came to visit Sir Alex Ferguson every day.

However, this kind of news is too low-level, and the sales of "The Sun" have been poor recently.

Editor-in-Chief Bright reprimanded Wolfe several times, telling him that he must dig out big news at all costs to increase newspaper sales. Even if you can't get it, then use another angle to hype up other things, such as Rooney and Van Persie coming to visit the doctor to fight, or Beckham being worried about Ferguson's "flying shoe bomb" back then, make up something This kind of thing is also good.

Outside of Bright's office, Wolff scolded him numerous times behind his back. In fact, Wolff felt aggrieved. He also knew that it would be shameful to disturb Ferguson's recovery, but that was what the newspaper asked him to do, and he had no choice.

After Ferguson spent the past few days in the parking lot, he discovered something and his eyes lit up.

I can do something about this!

In the Sun the next day, Wolfe wrote an opinion piece with a catchy title.

"Bullshit master-disciple relationship!"

"As we all know, Kim Tiger joined the Manchester United youth academy as a teenager and became a member of the Class of 92. Sir Alex Ferguson appreciated him very much and made him the captain of the Class of 92."

"Later, due to injuries, Kim Tiger retired early, but even so, Ferguson still cared about Kim Tiger very much. He allowed Kim Tiger to obtain a coaching qualification, stayed in the youth team, and became a young coach."

"And more than ten years later, when Ferguson retired, the Jazz recommended Kim Tiger as his successor and took over the coaching position of Manchester United!"

"All of Kim Tiger's subsequent achievements were all due to Sir Alex Ferguson's careful training. However, while Sir Alex was recovering from illness, our reporter's investigation found that Kim Tiger never came to the hospital to visit Sir Alex once! He is simply an ungrateful villain. !”

When editor-in-chief Brett got the draft of Wolf's report, he was very excited: "Wolf, you are simply a genius! Now that Manchester United's two finals are about to come, and Ferguson is recuperating in the hospital, your report will These two major events are connected together, and they are very controversial! It will definitely arouse widespread discussion in society! Yes, yes, I will definitely give you a bonus after the sales results of this issue come out!"

Everyone at "The Sun" is very happy, and they are excitedly waiting for the social reaction after this report comes out.

But unexpectedly, what they were waiting for was even louder curses.

At the same time, "Manchester Evening News" Hall published an exclusive interview with Ferguson's wife, Kathy.

At first, Casey was reluctant to deal with the media at such a bad time, but after two days of turmoil, he figured it out. As a public figure, Ferguson's every move has attracted much attention, especially his illness, which many fans are very concerned about. If he doesn't say anything publicly, then there will be so many rumors outside, which will definitely have a very bad impact on Ferguson.

Considering this situation, Casey decided to stand up and conduct an exclusive interview to tell everyone about Ferguson's current situation and what the fans are concerned about.

There is no need to consider the choice of media. It must be the Manchester Evening News, the mouthpiece of Manchester United.

Therefore, on the cusp of this storm, Hall was lucky enough to get an exclusive interview opportunity.
