"what happened?"
Huang Kaiwen asked: "Tony has never been interviewed in private."
Cross is straight-talking, but he's not stupid.
"It's a TV reporter who got into the hotel somehow."
Maldini explained: "He provoked Kroos with his words, and Kroos took it upon himself to answer some questions."
"Is there a video?"
Huang Kevin asked.
"I don't know, maybe there is, they want news."
Maldini said.
"No need to look for Kevin."
Galliani pointed to the TV in the hotel lobby, and the person who appeared on it was Cross.
"Damn it!"
Huang Kaiwen cursed.
I didn't expect the Germans to be so efficient.
Several people stood there.
The camera was pointed at Cross at an elevated angle, so it goes without saying that it must have been taken secretly by some means.
The reporter who did not show up asked: "What are your living habits in Italy?"
With a smile on his face, Cross nodded and said: "My teammates and fans are very enthusiastic. Except for some language difficulties, there are no problems at all, but I have learned Italian."
"Do you feel any regret about leaving Bayern?"
The reporter continued to ask.
Cross didn't even think about it, just shook his head and said: "Not at all. Milan is the greatest team in the world. If you play basketball, you want to be Jordan's teammate. No one in football doesn't want to play with Kevin."
"Besides Kevin?"
The reporter asked unwillingly.
"That's not the case either."
Kroos mocked: "In Milan, everyone is based on strength, and the team is also very concerned about the players' daily routine. We don't have to wear suits and listen to the speeches of the manager and club president after the game."
The reporter's tone obviously changed and he continued to ask: "Then do you also think Bayern's winning rate is less than 30%?"
"of course not!"
Cross said with a smile.
"So how much is it?"
the reporter asked.
"There is no winning rate! Just like more than 60 years ago, Bayern will still be a loser! Some things are not reasonable. You can't let some people support others."
Cross said without hesitation.
The reporter asked a little rudely: "Are you reflecting something? You are not talking about football, right? Are you dissatisfied with Germany?"
Cross sneered and said: "My love for this country is equal to this country's love for us."
"What do you mean, do you feel that you have been wronged because of your East German status?"
The reporter continued to ask.
Cross originally wanted to say something.
But thinking of other things, he closed his mouth again and looked at the reporter coldly.
The reporter quickly picked up the bag and left.
The screen turned into a host, and several Germans in suits were discussing this matter.
Paolo Maldini looked at Galliani.
He's really not very good at dealing with this kind of thing.
Galliani looked at Huang Kevin.
"Stand Tony."
Huang Kevin said: "Whether it's right or wrong, Milan cannot give up on its players, and Tony didn't say anything wrong."
"This will make the confrontation in the Champions League final even more serious."
Galliani said worriedly.
"Isn't the antagonism serious now?"
Huang Kaiwen said with some disdain: "The Germans are exaggerating the importance of this game to German football and have been making a fuss. If they want war, then give them war. Tell the Bender brothers not to express any opinions and play with peace of mind. Don’t take a stand.”
"I'll take care of it."
Galliani said.
It was not in his habit to do so.
He prefers to engage in interest exchange behind the scenes.
Players are expendable, let alone Kroos, who even killed the Cavaliers table back then.
But Huang Kaiwen said that there was nothing he could do.
Maldini said with some worry: "I'm afraid we will be the focus of the media in the next period of time, which will affect the team's preparations."
"Before the European Cup, the Champions League final itself is the biggest focus, so it's not a big deal."
Huang Kaiwen said: "It will be troublesome in the next period. When talking, you should try to talk about the game and talk less about things other than the game."
“Keeping football close to football, right.”
Maldini said with a smile.
"maybe."
Huang Kevin continued walking with Galliani.
It's not surprising that this would happen.
Kroos has never been very interested in the German national team and Bayern.
When he left Bayern, he immediately made remarks about Real Madrid being a higher level.
When the two of them went out, the hotel had prepared a car.
Galliani opened the car door for Huang Kevin and followed him into the back seat.
Huang Kaiwen doesn’t know much about Munich 1860, except that he knew a little about it when Shao Jiayi played there.
But Galliani has done a lot of work.
From Galliani's words, Huang Kevin knew the decline of Munich 1860, which not only started with missing Beckenbauer.
Man-made disasters are the bigger cause.
Whether it is 1860 or Hamburg, the decline is mainly due to management.
The previous club president, Wilder Moser, resigned due to accepting bribes regarding the new stadium, which also included his son.
Afterwards, Munich 1860 was supervised by the Supervisory Board.
The current chairman of the regulatory committee is Hassan Ismek, the first Arab chairman of a German professional team.
The event where Huang Kaiwen appeared was also led by Ismek.
"Sounds very capable."
Huang Kevin said.
Galliani whispered: "He bought 60 percent of Munich 1860."
"How can it be?"
Huang Kevin asked in surprise.
Since when did Germans become so easy to talk to?
Galliani lowered his voice a little more and said: "It is 49% voting shares and 11% non-voting shares."
"No wonder."
Huang Kevin nodded and said.
This is a compromise method.
But if the club chairman's decision really conflicts with the fans, his decision may not be passed.
From the title of supervisory chairman, Huang Kaiwen can feel how many difficulties there are.
This also injects capital into 1860. If it's not true love, it's because it has other agendas.
After the two people met Ismek, Huang Kevin was a little surprised.
The Jordanian tycoon looks innocuous. His round face and glasses make him look elegant and easy-going.
Completely different senses than those of more angular Arabs.
"Welcome, Kevin."
Hassan Ismek smiled and stretched out his hand.
Huang Kevin also reached out and responded in Italian.
The other party is obviously taking care of Galliani.
Ismek took two people to visit the 1860 training base. There were already many parents with their children at the training ground.
Even with its decline, this team still has many local fans.
Ismek said: "The team has already had a holiday, but there are still some players staying in the local area, so we organized an open day to let fans and children know more about our team."
“It’s a very good event. You can also try it in Milan.”
Galliani nodded.
When Huang Kaiwen saw the ball next to him, he simply rubbed his right foot and performed a live performance of bumping the ball.
The appearance of the three people originally attracted the attention of many people.
After Huang Kaiwen hit the ball, a child immediately screamed: "Kevin, it's Kevin!!!"
Immediately afterwards, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed.
What was originally a visit between parents and children suddenly turned into a superstar concert.
Although the fans did not rush to Huang Kevin.
But there were a lot more screams.
Huang Kaiwen bounced the ball a few more times and stopped the ball firmly on his right foot. Then he supported his right foot and pulled the ball around in a circle with his right foot as the center.
Although this little trick is not very flashy.
But it still caused a lot of cheers from the fans.
As Huang Kaiwen stopped, some fans immediately broke through the interception of 1860 staff and rushed towards Huang Kaiwen.
"Kevin, can you give me your autograph?"
"You are so cool Kevin, I will also go to AC Milan to play in the future!"
"You're definitely going to win, right, Kevin?"
"Kevin, teach Bayern a lesson!"
Huang Kaiwen smiled and took the marker and began to sign autographs for the fans.
It took almost half an hour for Huang Kaiwen to satisfy every fan's autograph request.
If you were a Milan fan, you would be busy for half a day.
This is mainly because 1860 did not announce in advance that Huang Kaiwen would appear.
"Kevin has so many fans all over the world!"
Galliani exclaimed: "It seems that my worries are in vain, maybe the Allianz Arena will become our home stadium."
Hassan Ismek also complimented: "The first star has such charm. There were many loyal fans of 1860 just now."
Huang Kaiwen smiled and said nothing.
There’s really nothing to be modest about in this regard.
That's the way football is. Just because you like Liverpool or Roma doesn't stop you from liking Ronaldinho.
Good skills always attract more fans.
Players greeted Huang Kaiwen one after another, and Huang Kaiwen responded with a smile.
After the three people entered the office building together, they immediately saw the reporter.
The scene of Galliani and Hassan Ismaik smiling and shaking hands was filmed by reporters.
Kevin Huang also gave a thumbs up and took some photos.
That’s the end of today’s activities.
On the way back, Galliani said: "We have reached an agreement."
"What agreement?"
Huang Kevin asked.
"It's just cooperation with some teams to help them develop their player potential. We have the right of first refusal to purchase their players, and there are other things that need to be discussed later."
Galliani said with a smile.
Huang Kaiwen gave a thumbs up.
The ability to add baldness is really strong. In just a short time, 1860 was fooled into becoming a satellite team for Milan.
All strategic partners are fake.
The main thing is to play friendly matches to drive the opponent's income. 1860 provides Milan with some outstanding youth training players.
Generally speaking, Kevin Huang can understand Hassan Ismek's approach.
Before 1860, it was not considered a top club, but it was about the same level as Everton.
They can't keep the best players from their youth training. They basically go to big teams, and the better ones go to their local rival Bayern.
In this case, they would definitely prefer to let players play abroad.
I can’t keep it myself, but I can’t give it to you either.
Many teams have similar ideas, and this is why Tottenham charges a high price for Premier League teams.
The main reason why Modric was able to leave Tottenham was because his wife was more powerful. She told Levy clearly that if he doesn't allow the transfer, he will hang up his boots tomorrow and you won't get a penny.
The two of them went back to the hotel directly.
During dinner in the evening, Huang Kevin saw Hoeness's response on TV. Hoeness said: "If Kroos doesn't like the German team, he doesn't have to play for the German team. Kroos has not improved much in AC Milan. He prefers to pass the ball to the side where the opponent has organized defense.”
Huang Kaiwen was just thinking about how to refute.
Thinking again, Hoeness is right.
The opponent must have organized a defense around the yellow ball king. Cross gave the ball to someone yellow. Isn't that what happened?
But this also depends on the actual situation.
Should Kroos not pass the ball to him, but instead send a through ball when he sees an opportunity like Big B?
Manchester United has lost so much possession of the ball and has been beaten back by others, so even if it were Milan, it would be quite difficult.
Huang Kaiwen advised: "Calm down, Tony, the club will handle this matter."
Cross lowered his head and said nothing.
Huang Kevin looked at Big Bend and pointed at Cross.
Tell him to pay attention.
Don't let Cross get carried away.
Later in the evening, Milan’s official website released an announcement.
The announcement read: "Tony Kroos is an important member of the team. His passing success rate is at the top level in Serie A and world football. The team is very optimistic about Kroos' future and is already working with him. The broker negotiates with both parties to renew the contract, and the contract renewal shall be no less than four years.”
But the troubles were not over.
Early the next morning, German media and European media reported and interpreted Cross's words.
"Bild": "Toni Kroos has persecution delusions and is an ungrateful villain. He has always received very good treatment at Bayern, but after the transfer, he immediately said that AC Milan is one level higher than Bayern."
"Munich Evening News": "Former Bayern player Ballack gave an interview and persuaded Kroos to calm down and keep football away from politics. This is the right thing."
"Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung": "Löw has not made a public statement yet, but if things continue to escalate, Kroos may be excluded from the German team's roster."
"The Times": "The European Cup has not yet started, and the first team to break out of internal strife has already appeared. West Germany has always been oppressing East Germany, but no one has spoken out. Kroos has no problem, he just But tell the truth, and the Krauts hate people who tell the truth.”
"Le Parisien": "Kros has lifted the fig leaf of German football. In a sense, he is a revolutionary."
"Gazzetta dello Sport": "Both Guardiola and Cesare Maldini have said what they think of Kroos. Guardiola believes that Toni Kroos is one of the best midfielders of the future, and Cesare Maldini Maldini said Kroos plays like Albertini."
Sometimes right and wrong don't matter.
It's not about taking sides.
Germany is strong enough, and the two sides have grievances, and the British are very willing to see the Germans having fun.
Not to mention the French. Now when they see the gray woolen coat, they want to take off their underwear and hold it up.
After returning to the hotel after a day of training.
There has been quite a bit of news about it.
German celebrities almost all criticized Kroos.
After dinner, Paolo Maldini said in an interview with reporters: "We live in a democratic society and everyone can express their opinions. Tony expressed his views and I don't think there is anything wrong with it."
Early the next morning.
Huang Kaiwen saw the words of several famous Bayern players.
Among them is Matthaus.
They now focus their fire on Kroos.
This kind of thing may not put psychological pressure on Milan.
Not long after breakfast, Galliani found Huang Kevin and expressed his concerns.
Galliani said: "Kevin, if this continues we will always be in the media vortex, which will be very detrimental to us."
"Let's hold a press conference later and let Tony attend."
Huang Kevin said: "I'll talk to Tony first."
"so be it."
Galliani nodded.
Huang Kevin found Cross in the hotel bar. Cross was playing pool by himself, and the Bender brothers were watching him.
"Kevin, want to have a round?"
Cross asked, shaking his club.
"Forget it, I don't want to bully you."
Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.
Cross suddenly realized and said: "By the way, you have played with O'Sullivan, so you should be very good at this game."
"Let's go and chat in the sauna?"
Huang Kevin said.
Cross nodded and left without looking back and making a face at Brother Bender.
"Shall we follow?"
asked Lars Bender.
"Of course not."
Sven Bender said angrily.
"Then what do we do?" Lars Bender asked.
"Get a cue and play two games."
…
Although Germany has mixed saunas for men and women, they wear special clothes, which is no different from steaming.
It's not as sexy as in some movies.
Huang Kaiwen said hello in advance, so no one was using the sauna at this time.
After the two people entered, Cross sat in the corner.
Huang Kaiwen has read similar articles, which should be a sign of uneasiness and lack of security.
I don’t know if it’s because of the upcoming conversation or because I’m worried about the current media environment.
"Tony."
"I'm here, Kevin!"
Cross said quickly.
"In fact, some phenomena are common, but they are more serious in Germany. Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo was also ridiculed when he went to Lisbon. Londoners also ridiculed the UK in other places. A similar situation also exists in Italy..."
Huang Kevin said.
"But it's different."
Cross said directly.
"I see."
Huang Kaiwen said: "But when you speak, you must consider your parents and girlfriend. Even if you are not afraid of not being able to play for the national team, you must also consider the situation of your family. I am right, I don't know your parents. But your girlfriend is still in Munich, right?"
"Yes, I really didn't think of this before."
Cross said a little depressed.
"I'm telling you this not to stop you, but everyone has to bear the consequences of their words. Remember to talk to your girlfriend about this matter. If someone is unkind to her, comfort her more. If it doesn't work, just let her Come to Milan, whether it is studies or career, you can continue in Milan."
Huang Kevin said.
Cross, who thought Huang Kevin was going to criticize him, choked up and said, "Kevin..."
Huang Kevin patted Cross on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, the club and I will always stand by your side. You just need to think more before you speak, whether your words will have an impact on the people who love you. If not, then you You can say whatever you want."
Cross sat there with his head bowed.
There was obviously water vapor rising under his feet.
Huang Kevin grinned silently, who would have thought that Cross would cry so much.
Not long after the two went out, they went to the hotel's conference room together.
There are already many reporters sitting in the conference room.
Galliani and Maldini sat on the stage.
Huang Kevin pushed Cross and motioned for him to come up.
Cross turned and looked at Huang Kevin.
Huang Kaiwen smiled and gave a thumbs up in encouragement.
As Cross sat down, there was chaos.
Galliani slapped the microphone hard.
Noisy sounds came from the audio equipment, and the reporters subconsciously covered their ears.
Galliani said: "Come today, Tony will only answer three of your questions. If you want to ask anything, just say it."
"Tony, what do you want to refute about what Hoeness said?"
a reporter asked first.
"I won't trust a politician. My coach says I'm good and my teammates think I'm good. That's enough. He should take care of his turfkeeper before taking care of others."
Cross said.
Turfkeeper refers to Matthäus.
Hoeness once said that Matthäus was not qualified to be the turfkeeper at the Allianz Arena.
"If you were kicked off the German team, would you regret your words?"
one reporter asked.
Cross said directly without thinking: "Everyone has to bear the consequences of their own actions. I don't know what the future will be like, but I just expressed my inner thoughts."
"Then what if Loew really announces that he will no longer summon you?"
the reporter asked.
Cross said: "I am willing to work hard to win honors for many people, but there are also many people who are not worthy of me and ask me to fight. You should think about what kind of person you or others are."
The reporter also wanted to ask questions.
But he was interrupted immediately.
"Bild's Christian Polk, Ballack says you should keep politics out of football, what do you think?"
Cross pulled into the microphone and said: "I am different from him. Even if he has won 10 championships and is one of the most successful players in the world, it cannot change the fact that he is a coward. Stay away from politics? Don't you think it is apolitical? If so, do young players dare to slap the captain of the national team at will? If the so-called mature and clean football means just slapping people in the face at will, then I can't do it."
boom--
Cross's words spoke volumes.
The reporters also wanted to ask more questions.
But Maldini immediately picked up the microphone and said: "The conference is over, please get out of here."
Huang Kaiwen smiled and clapped his hands.
At least he thought what Cross said today was pretty good.
Huang Kaiwen had no objection to Ballack, but he did feel useless when Ballack was beaten by Podolski.
Even if you are not the captain of the national team.
Ballack is also one of the few top players in football.
The big brother of the German team.
You, a young player from a small team, just play whenever you want?
If it had been Kevin Huang, Podolski would have had to get a dental brace after the game.
Later, teammates heard about Kroos' performance and encouraged him.
At this time, Beckenbauer finally expressed his opinion. Beckenbauer said: "The most important thing for the players of both teams now is the Champions League final. Let other things be left for later."
Beckenbauer's statement cooled down the matter.
However, Milan still encounters provocations from local fans every now and then during training.
The entire Milan team was holding their breath.
Cross, in particular, drags some teammates with him to practice extra after training every day, and he looks very motivated.
In the hotel room.
"Tomorrow is the final."
Ramos sighed.
He has always played in finals in recent years.
"Yeah, let's finish it quickly."
Huang Kevin said.
"If there are no accidents, I should play against Al Young. That kid is not easy to deal with."
Ramos continued.
"it's not a big deal."
Huang Kevin said as his cell phone rang.
Ramos knew it was Lily by the ringtone.
After Huang Kaiwen got through, Lily said with a tearful voice: "Barbara had a stomachache and went to the hospital. What should I do now?"
"Don't worry, is there anything unexpected?"
Huang Kevin asked.
Ramos' eyes widened and he held the sheets tightly with one hand.
"The doctor said it's normal, but she's been in there for a long time." Lily said helplessly.
"Albert isn't here?"
Huang Kevin asked.
"Mr. Albert is here, but I don't know what to do if I can't see you."
"I'm going back now, don't worry."
Huang Kevin said.
He comforted Lily for a few more words and then hung up the phone.
"I'll go back with you!"
Ramos stood up and said.
"It's okay. I should be able to come back before the finals. If not, you must take them to get the trophy!"
Huang Kevin squeezed Ramos's shoulder and said.
Ramos slumped on the bed weakly and watched Huang Kevin pack his backpack.
Without taking anything, Huang Kevin put on his cap and bag and turned around to leave.
Ramos immediately punched the bedside table.
Kaka came out of the shower and asked, "What's wrong? Why haven't you returned to your room yet?"
…
Huang Kaiwen was lucky. When he arrived at Munich Airport, he saw a flight two hours later.
And I also bought a ticket.
He had also checked some things on the Internet before, but he was somewhat unsure about his first experience.
The initial production takes about 10-20 hours.
But Huang Kaiwen has also heard the legend of the Yangshui Knight.
There are all kinds of strange things in the world, and you can't even predict that your child will be born on time.
After sitting there for a long time, Huang Kaiwen finally saw the boarding gate information on the screen.
The pace was fast along the way.
After getting on the plane, Huang Kaiwen was still anxious.
The unknown is the scariest thing about this situation.
Although I knew there would be no problems and had made all arrangements, I still felt a little uneasy when I didn't see it with my own eyes.
He took out the CD from his bag and put the headphones into his ears.
But music didn't help at all at this time.
Barbara had been with him for so many years, and it was hard for Huang Kevin not to be worried at this time.
No wonder some players delay the World Cup for this kind of thing.
Fortunately, the flight from Munich to Milan did not change due to his mood, and it still took more than 30 minutes to arrive at Malpensa Airport.
Huang Kaiwen ran all the way out of the security check and got in immediately when he saw the taxi.
The man who was about to get into the car was staggered by the impact. He was about to curse, but immediately exclaimed: "Damn it, Kevin!"
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
Huang Kevin took out his wallet, took out a handful of euros, handed them to the driver and said, "San Rafael Hospital."
As soon as he finished speaking, the driver stepped on the accelerator and jumped out. Huang Kevin almost hit the front seat.
The driver said: "Just take the money back, otherwise I will be kicked out of the house by my family. It can come in handy when you are in a hurry. This is simply the most glorious moment of my life."
Rosenery!
Huang Kevin reacted immediately.
No wonder he stepped on the accelerator as soon as he heard that he was in a hurry.
He asked, "What's your name?"
"Camilo, Camilo Guardi."
the driver said.
"Nobles of the North, Venetians."
Kevin Huang joked.
This is similar to saying that someone with the surname Liu is a descendant of Liu Xiu.
The driver was obviously very helpful. He was not able to talk to me along the way, but he kept humming a tune.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the hospital, Huang Kevin took out a napkin and wrote on it with flying colors: "Giving lifetime season tickets to the loyal Camilo Guardi, Kevin."
After handing the napkin to the driver, Huang Kaiwen opened the door and rushed out.
Running all the way upstairs, Huang Kevin found the place immediately.
The old butler and bodyguards were too conspicuous.
"master!"
Albert was a little surprised and said: "You can rest for a while. Madam is fine, but we still need to wait."
"Why did you come back!"
Lily raised her head and asked immediately crying.
Huang Kevin sat next to her, holding Lily in his arms and patting her back constantly.
Some things don't need explanation at all.
Lily was just scared.
Not blaming him.
Not long after, the sound of even breathing came from Huang Kevin's arms.
Albert said softly: "Ms. Collins was exhausted today. She handled it very well and contacted the hospital as soon as possible."
Huang Kevin nodded.
Albert added: "I'll get you something to eat."
Huang Kaiwen reluctantly opened his mouth and said, "Forget it, I don't have much appetite."
Albert did not continue to persuade.
However, the old housekeeper kept looking up at the light in the delivery room, which proved that his heart was not as calm as he showed.
Huang Kevin hugged Lily and sat there in trance.
The old housekeeper who couldn't hold on anymore also sat on the bench.
I don’t know how long it took.
Someone opened the door.
Huang Kevin, who was already numb, could not react immediately, and then looked up.
The doctor with a sweaty face showed a smile and said: "Congratulations to you Kevin, both of you are doing well. You have an heir to your jersey!"
Alonso is so fierce, he hasn’t lost yet
Please recommend monthly tickets.
