Six Hundred and Twenty-Three the Bottom Line of the Domineering President

"You're right, Gao!"

In a high-end restaurant in Alderley Edge, Cheshire, Gao Shen entertained visiting Zidane and Valdano.

Accompanying her is her fiancee Su Qing.

And the three of them were sitting together, and the topic easily got to football.

This is the purpose of their trip.

"At the beginning, when we wanted to introduce Kaka, you said that this road would not work. Now it seems that you are right, and we are all wrong!" After Baldano finished speaking, he let out a mixed sigh.

Florentino and Valdano, who entered the second palace, both want to do a career because they both have deep feelings for Real Madrid and hope to prove their ability and value through the second entry.

Florentino will use the second palace to re-justify his name and secure his seat as President of Real Madrid.

But this season, Real Madrid's performance has not been satisfactory.

So far, La Liga has played 22 rounds, and Real Madrid is two points behind Barcelona, ​​and in the first match between the two sides, Real Madrid lost 1-0 at Camp Nou.

Judging from the score, this is a good result, and the process is acceptable, but Real Madrid will not be satisfied.

What really triggered Pellegrini's coaching crisis was the Copa del Rey. A 0-4 defeat to an amateur team was simply a shame for Real Madrid. There was even news that Florentino would take Pellegrin on the spot. Rini is fried.

It took more than 300 million euros to gather four top superstars from the three major leagues, and then lost to an amateur team. This is simply the funniest joke in the world.

But it just happened.

Later, Florentino calmed down and did not fire Pellegrini, hoping that he could lead the team to turn the situation around, especially in the Champions League.

During Pellegrini's tenure at Villarreal, the results in the Champions League were quite good.

But who would have thought that Real Madrid lost 0-2 away to Lyon in the first round of the knockout round of the round of 16.

Judging from the score, it is unlikely that the second round will reverse the promotion at home.

And that's why Zidane and Valdano came to Manchester.

As early as more than half a year ago, Gao Shen had already guessed that this would be the case.

At that time, he also persuaded Valdano that the introduction of Kaka was not good for Real Madrid's overall tactics.

But then, who believed him?

Even Zidane is probably dubious, because Zidane himself is a midfielder.

But now, the results are out.

Although there are many superstars, they are still useless when the midfield is out of balance.

...

"There is no such thing as right or wrong. Everyone has different ideas and understandings, which is normal."

Gao Shen smiled and comforted that his team could not play in the Champions League this season, so it was not qualified to evaluate those teams that could reach the knockout rounds of the round of 16, even the teams that lost in the first round.

Zidane and Valdano were so "comforted" by him, but they didn't know how to continue.

According to their previous plan, it should be understood and moved with reason.

They all believe that with their profound abilities, they will be able to solve the current problems of Real Madrid and lead the team out of the predicament.

Florentino, who is far away in Madrid, also believes in the same, so he will let the two come to Manchester.

It's very simple, since Gao Shen was able to see Real Madrid's problems more than half a year ago, then he can definitely solve it.

Thinking of this, and looking at Gao Shen and Su Qing's ruthless loveliness and glue-like lacquer, Zidane and Valdano looked at each other and both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

In the end, Zidane couldn't help but speak.

"Gao, come back!" Zidane said in a pleading tone.

"Go back? Where are you going?"

"Real Madrid, we are all waiting for you."

"Stop joking, Zinedine, what am I going to do?" Gao Shen asked with a smile.

"Help him out of the predicament, just like you did four years ago. All of us believe that you can do it, and you can do it better than four years ago." Zidane said sincerely.

He has a good relationship with Gao Shen, and has been an assistant to Gao Shen, so he knows Gao Shen's ability better than anyone else.

The current plight of Real Madrid is not a problem for Gao Shen.

The real question is, will he be willing to return to Real Madrid?

After being silent for a few seconds, Gao Shen shook his head with a smile: "Zinetin, the Real Madrid now is different from the Real Madrid back then, and I am also different. Manchester City is also in some troubles, and I need to solve it. , you know me, I won't leave everything behind at this time."

"We can wait until the end of the season." Valdano said quickly.

In Gao Shen, Real Madrid's sincerity is also very sufficient.

It can be said that in addition to superstar strategy, other things can be discussed.

Gao Shen was still smiling and shaking his head.

This made Zidane and Valdano on the opposite side sink.

"Zinedine, Jorge, we have been friends for many years, I am very happy that you can come to see me, and I very much welcome you to stay in Manchester for a while. All your expenses and expenses are all mine, but when you return Let's not talk about Real Madrid anymore."

Gao Shen said it firmly and without doubt.

...

After a meal, Zidane and Valdano watched as Gao Shen took Su Qing's hand and left.

As friends, they are all happy for the high.

But as Real Madrid employees, they were all disappointed.

Both public and private, they all hope to cooperate with Gao Shen again.

However, they are also very understanding of the profound, once he makes a decision, it will not be changed easily.

"Actually, that's fine." Baldano said without end.

Zidane also nodded, showing a wry smile.

The current Real Madrid locker room is not so easy to deal with, and the problem is also very big.

Raul, Guti and others are not too young, and they should all take a back seat. But at the same time, there are too many superstars in the frontcourt. How to distribute the ball rights and functions?

There is also what Gao Shen said, if you want to guarantee the midfield, you must adjust the configuration of the superstars, who will you win?

You must know that every superstar is introduced by the team at a huge cost, not bought to sit on the bench and watch the water cooler.

At that time, Gao Shen was able to handle the Real Madrid locker room because the team had been weak for many years and was forced to have no way out.

but now……

Thinking of this, Zidane took out his mobile phone, called Florentino who was waiting for news in Madrid, and briefly explained his conversation with Gao Shen in Manchester.

Florentino on the other side of the phone was silent for a long time.

As early as when Gao Shen was coaching Real Madrid, he was very optimistic about Gao Shen.

Even when he was preparing to enter the palace for the second time and regain the chairmanship of Real Madrid, the head coach in his mind was only profound from beginning to end.

But who would have thought that because of the differences in superstar signings, because of his own first strike and then play, Gao Shen angrily coached Manchester City.

Although Gao has been criticized a lot recently, Manchester City is still the leader of the Premier League, and the 19-game winning streak of the half-way championship is enough to shock the world football.

The depth is still the same magical depth.

But Real Madrid is no longer the Real Madrid at the beginning of the season, and Florentino's confidence is not as strong as at the beginning of the season.

At least, the president of Real Madrid before the season did not believe that he spent more than 300 million euros to build a superstar lineup that would actually lose to an amateur team.

But after listening to what Zidane and Valdano said, Gao Shen has made up his mind, who can make him change his mind?

...

After leaving the restaurant, Gao Shen and Su Qing held hands and strolled home on the green road, enjoying this rare comfort.

"Actually, you still care about Real Madrid." Su Qing said.

She knows Gao Shen very well. She knows that Gao Shen is a very emotional person at heart.

Gao Shenchong smiled at her and said nothing.

"Why didn't you agree to them?" Su Qing asked strangely.

Gao Shen let go of Su Qing's hand, reached out, and grabbed her shoulders. With a little force, she pressed against Gao Shen and looked more intimate.

Even though the two have been in a relationship for so long, Su Qing still can't roar about the sudden and intimate contact with Gao Shen.

But after arrogantly rejecting her "resistance", she could only obey her fate.

"It's not the time yet."

"why?"

Gao Shen smiled again, "Real Madrid is different from other teams. Since the first phase of Florentino's Galaxy Battleship, he has attached great importance to commercial value, and superstars are a very important component of Real Madrid's commercial value. part."

"So, whether it's the previous Galaxy Battleship Phase 1 or the current Galaxy Battleship Phase 2, the superstars have a pivotal position and influence, and they can even directly connect with the senior management and even the chairman."

When Su Qing heard this, she immediately understood her deep concerns.

If Real Madrid is regarded as a company, then such a leapfrog report, the leader skips himself and meddles in the work of subordinates, is definitely a taboo.

"Nowadays, many of them still have illusions, and they always feel that after introducing a group of superstars, the results can be improved naturally. They ignore the existence of the head coach. For the same reason, they also underestimate the role of the head coach. "

Real Madrid have never respected the tradition of the manager.

It was, it is now, and it will probably be in the future.

But as a head coach, there is no way for Gao Shen to work in such an environment and atmosphere. He needs the most sincere support from the club, otherwise, he would rather not go.

And this is something that the current Real Madrid cannot give.

Not to mention anything else, Gao Shen only needs to ask Florentino a question: Can I put all superstars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka into the cold palace?

Before getting a positive answer, Gao Shen will never take over Real Madrid.

Because if he doesn't even have the power to deal with a player, how does he manage the team in the locker room? How to convince the public? How to make everyone listen to his orders?

Some people may say that Ronaldo can be persuaded to cooperate.

But the question is, this kind of cooperation itself is very fragile, and with Gao Shen's current identity and status, why should he take this risk? Why do this thing?

In fact, whether it is Florentino, Valdano or Zidane, they have always been very clear about where the bottom line is, but Real Madrid will not compromise for the time being.

That being the case, Gao Shen will not go back.
