Chapter 1,103 The Wool Comes From the Pig

The next day, when the sky was still bright, Gao Xiaodong's door quietly opened, and a petite figure tiptoed out, then quickly walked into the elevator and left.

Two hours later, with Ferguson's shout, Gao Xiaodong's door opened again, and a sleepy-eyed Gao Xiaodong walked out of the room.

Looking at Gao Xiaodong's appearance, Ferguson glared at Gao Xiaodong unhappily. He thought Gao Xiaodong was playing games online yesterday, but he felt that Gao Xiaodong had just become the captain and was taking care of his face, so he didn't say anything.

Rooney didn't have so many scruples. He quietly lay on Gao Xiaodong's shoulder and said, "You look like you haven't woken up. What good did you do last night?"

Rooney said casually that Gao Xiaodong felt guilty and asked, "What else can I do besides sleeping."

Rooney said: "If you still don't tell me the truth, are you playing a game?"

Gao Xiaodong breathed a sigh of relief, deliberately looked around, and whispered: "Okay, okay, don't let the coach hear."

Rooney laughed and punched Gao Xiaodong on the arm. "What are you afraid of? I can't hear you. I'm going to play. Anyway, there's no game today, and my opponent the day after tomorrow is also a loser."

Gao Xiaodong said: "Well, it's the last game. Just have fun. Don't ruin other people's football dreams. They won't invite us here in the future, hahaha."

Rooney laughed too.

After going to the restaurant for breakfast, the Manchester United team came to the Manchester United store in Chicago for an event.

Players interacted with fans through games, Q&A, and sold signed jerseys.

Although football in the United States is very deserted, Manchester United is now very popular. The team has both veterans from the Class of 1992 like Giggs and popular players like Gao Xiaodong Rooney. Their activities have attracted many fans.

There are many Chinese in the United States, including in Chicago. The first Chinatown in the United States was built by them. Even though the United States is a country of immigrants, the status of these Chinese in the United States is not high. Gao Xiaodong's performance at Manchester United has given the Chinese people credit. After gaining prestige, Gao Xiaodong came to the Manchester United store for an event. Many Chinese came to support him after hearing the news, making Gao Xiaodong the player who sold the most jerseys in the Manchester United team. In one day, Gao Xiaodong’s No. 10 jersey was sold almost It is equal to the total of the entire team.

However, something went wrong when the event was about to end. A tall, bearded, white fan wearing a Manchester United jersey squeezed in front of Gao Xiaodong, made an eye-rolling humiliating gesture at Gao Xiaodong, and shouted, "Yellow skinned fan" Get out of the United States, monkey, you are not welcome here."

Faced with the sudden humiliation, Gao Xiaodong became furious and started to fight. He wanted to beat the white fan wearing a Manchester United jersey, but at this time he was obviously unable to take action. Seeing the security guard coming over, Gao Xiaodong pointed at the white fan and cursed. Said: "As a Chinese, I should beat you up, but as a Manchester United player, I won't argue with you today. Get out of here, you don't deserve to be a Manchester United fan."

Although Gao Xiaodong did not take action, his first words inspired the Chinese fans. The surrounding Chinese fans rushed forward, pushed the white fan to the ground, punched and kicked him, and did not let him go until the security came to stop him.

Manchester United's event had already come to an end, and with such an unpleasant incident happening, Ferguson and David Gill directly ended the interaction with fans and left the Manchester United store.

Back at the hotel, Ferguson and David Gill held a press conference, severely criticizing the problem of racial discrimination in the United States, saying that Manchester United would not tolerate racial discrimination by fans, let alone Manchester United fans discriminating against Manchester United heroes like Gao Xiaodong. , they will resolutely boycott racist fans from entering venues where Manchester United plays.

This racial discrimination issue shocked Ferguson and David Gill. They were very worried that Gao Xiaodong would be attacked by fans in the future. They planned to find some full-time bodyguards for Gao Xiaodong after returning to Manchester to protect Gao Xiaodong 24 hours a day. .

When Ferguson and David Gill held a press conference, Gao Xiaodong received a call from Chen Qiang.

Chen Qiang told Gao Xiaodong that the Football Association has decided to sign a contract with Camacho, and Yida Group will pay the salaries of Camacho and his coaching staff to the Football Association.

Gao Xiaodong was not surprised by the news. The last time the Football Association Chairman Wei Ge called him, Gao Xiaodong knew that the Football Association would definitely choose Camacho in the end.

"Brother Chen, with the Football Association's urinary attitude, this is too normal. Camacho is a little worse than Scolari, but it doesn't cost money."

Chen Qiang sneered: "The Football Association doesn't want to pay, but the wool comes from the pig."

Gao Xiaodong said a little strangely: "Brother Chen, your words are a bit profound."

Chen Qiang said: "Yida Group paid this money to the Football Association, and he wants to get it back from us."

Get it back from us? Gao Xiaodong asked in confusion: "How to get it back?"

Chen Qiang said: "Yida Group asked the Football Association to continue the Star of Hope project, but this time it is not sent to Portugal, but to Spain, Camacho's home country."

Gao Xiaodong said: "This is a good thing. No matter how much money Yida Group makes, it has cultivated some talents for our country."

Chen Qiang said: "If it's just like this, no matter if he wants to make money, gain fame, or flatter him, we will ignore him, but the Football Association requires us to send this Star of Hope team to Spain and hand it over to them. Training, if you say we give people to them, will they return them to us?"

Gao Xiaodong was annoyed when he heard this. He also had shares in the Star of Hope, "Brother Chen, they are robbing them openly. When the Star of Hope was about to be disbanded, no one cared about it. Now the gang of Star of Hope The players are about to become mature, and they have extended their clutches, which is really shameless."

Chen Qiang said angrily: "Yes, over the years, let alone investing money, how much effort I have put into it, the Football Association just said that we would all give it to Yida Group, what a fucking favor. "

Gao Xiaodong quickly calmed down and said, "Brother Chen, did they say they would give you any compensation?"

Chen Qiang said: "I told you that I won't let good people suffer, and will compensate me for the money I invested. If the Football Association has any business in the future, they will cooperate with me again. Damn it, be sure to coax me like a child." Well, the time and energy I invested are not money."

Gao Xiaodong pondered: "This kind of compensation is definitely unacceptable. Although many people from the Star of Hope have left, as long as Yang Fan and Yu Debao come out of the remaining group of people, we will make a profit."

Chen Qiang said: "But what is more troublesome now is that although the Stars of Hope have signed contracts with us, some of them are from the echelons of the Football Association, some were selected through auditions at the time, and some are affiliated with major clubs. , the relationship is complicated, and if you think about it seriously, the contracts of many people may not have any legal effect. Many of these players have to return to the Chinese Super League. If the Football Association really wants to embarrass us, we do not have the ability to resist."

Gao Xiaodong had already thought of a countermeasure and said to Chen Qiang: "Brother Chen, this person is determined not to give to Yida Group. I will go to Wei Ge from the Football Association and tell him to let go of me, Star of Hope and Xinglong Agency." Let him consider the relationship, and if he insists on having his own way, don't blame me for going back on my word."
