The Green Superstar

When Van der Hill helped Tang Hong and several other players in the hotel to make phone calls with European clubs, Tang Hong and his party went shopping in a complex shopping mall in Mexico City at leisure.

Except for Tang Hong and Sun Rou, everyone else would return home first to shop in order to buy some specialty products as gifts for relatives and friends.

In order to satisfy their shopping desire, Tang Hong first gave them 10,000 US dollars each, which is enough to make them splurge in this shopping mall.

Sun Rou is not a girl who likes shopping, but she likes shopping, especially interested in exquisite gadgets. In Tianhai, her bedroom is filled with exquisite pendants or furnishings, most of which are handmade works. People have a dazzling visual sense.

Tang Hong followed her, and when she walked into a boutique, he would also go in, but he was not interested in most of the goods, just to make sure that Sun Rou was not in trouble.

At least two people's English level can ensure that they have no problems with shopping and communication.

Van der Hill was so busy in the hotel that he couldn't even take a sip of water. In addition to helping Tang Hong contact the European teams, Zhao Hanchun, Qin Rui, and Luo Hongkai also received trial invitations from some European teams.

Van der Hill must ensure that these invitations are not a waste of time. After all, these Chinese players themselves can join a European team with zero transfer fees.

If you consider the potential commercial value of the players, many European teams will be happy to do such a deal.

The so-called commercial value of players is based on their ability, and is also related to the club's own commercial resources.

Just like when Dong Fangzhuo joined Manchester United, he did not play a few games for Manchester United before he left Manchester United, but the commercial return that Manchester United earned from him was at least ten times the sum of transfer fees and salary costs!

Because Manchester United has huge commercial resources, but they expand their commercial resources in the Far East, signed a sponsorship contract, and in Manchester proudly declared to the sponsors that they have the support of the largest fan group in China. This is part of their support to the sponsors. The confidence to ask for a higher contract price.

Chinese players are actually very valuable and potential in the eyes of many foreign clubs. In the 2005 World Youth Championship, the Chinese National Youth Team, known as the super platinum generation, many players in the team were favored by European teams after the game, and many of them were in the five major leagues. An olive branch thrown by the team.

But in the end, almost no players went out. There are many reasons. Some players lack the adventurous spirit. They hold large and comfortable contracts in China. There is no need to go to a foreign country. It is undeniable that not everyone treats football like a dream. I hope to get closer to the peak every day, and there are also domestic clubs that obstructed the soaring transfer fee and eventually the transfer was lost.

All European clubs with a bit of strength also expect to bring in Chinese players to scratch the lottery. Maybe the rate of return in the competition is not high, and that's it, unless it is really shocking genius, but the commercial return is far. Much higher than players from Africa, North and South America!

Chinese capital is expanding in Europe, and the Chinese market is a must for sponsors. It is normal for commercial factors to influence the club's business ideas.

It's just that this kind of lottery ticket is naturally not a big deal, if you lose, you will cry and be blind.

Therefore, the performance of the Chinese team in this World Junior Championship has made many European clubs ready to move.

As long as you have carefully watched the game of the Chinese team, you can basically see which players have potential and room for improvement, and their current strength is not bad.

Tang Hong won the World Junior Championships Golden Globe Award will not make all his teammates ascend to heaven, he is outstanding in ability, who should be a good player or who.

If the world football is seen as a pyramid of wealth, influence, competitive level and other factors, then European football is undoubtedly the upper area of ​​the pyramid, and the spire is the European giant.

Players are an important part of the club and are also an element that can directly affect the club's ranking in this pyramid.

In the European football are subdivided, the giants will plunder the elite players, the first-line clubs can only pick what the giants don’t want, and the civilian teams further down are composed of countless grassroots players, and they are also playing The role of an elite player incubator.

Regardless of the first-line clubs or the rich, they cannot always expect to train a player from the youth team to the first-line team to become the main player. Even if they are also doing this, it is just a big wave, and ultimately they can really lead the club. There are still very few players who have a youth training gene and become the unshakable main role of the first team.

Two years ago, the dominating Barcelona Dream Team, half of Guardiola’s main lineup was his own youth players, which is already very impressive, but there are still half, Henry, Eto’o, Yaya Toure, Silvinho , They are not players trained by Barcelona themselves.

If the player background analysis is extended to the bench lineup, then the proportion of the team's youth players will drop.

The giants will grab the stars trained by the first-line clubs, and the first-line clubs will bring the elites of the civilian teams to their command. This is also an interlocking system.

Different teams sign in according to their own competitiveness and record needs. In other words, based on the performance of the Chinese National Youth Team in this World Youth Championship, even if they land in Europe, the starting point will not be high, because they have not really experienced After the baptism of the professional arena, it will not enter the attention of first-line clubs and rich clubs.

Therefore, no English team is interested in Tang Hong. On the one hand, it is the trouble of the labor certification. On the other hand, it is also the high-intensity threshold for physical confrontation in the English league.

As for the Spanish team, due to foreign aid quota restrictions, it is almost impossible for a team to give a foreign aid quota on the front line to a Chinese player who is about to turn 18.

This is especially true in Italy. Only one non-European player can be introduced each year, and it is impossible to waste it on a player with no professional experience.

The German team also has considerations of foreign aid quotas, but France is not lowly concerned about Tang Hong because of loose foreign aid restrictions.

Van der Hill has been busy from morning to night. Due to the time difference with Europe, he was busy from 5 am to 4 pm, and then he stopped working at night in Europe.

When Tang Hong and his party returned to the hotel in the evening, Van der Hill called Tang Hong, Qin Rui, Luo Hongkai, and Zhao Hanchun into his room.

Van der Heer, with a tired face, went straight to the point: "Zhao Hanchun, I have contacted two Dutch second division teams for you. You can go back to go abroad after the trial invitation letter is sent.

Qin Rui, the Cottbus club in the German second division wants you to try out. I think this is a good opportunity. There have been Chinese players who have played for that club before, although they do not rule out that they want to continue to maintain the support of German Chinese fans. , But I communicated with their coach. He appreciates you very much. If you perform well in the trial training, he will give you the opportunity to adapt to the professional arena as soon as possible.

Luo Hongkai, the Spanish second division team Celta expects you to join them because they lack a midfielder. If you decide to go, then I can only give you one suggestion. The Spanish players’ skills are top-notch in Europe as a whole. So if you want to be different, then you must have a broader view of the overall situation and vision. At the same time, you have to work harder than those Spanish players who play technically, like a wise beast. This is how you can stand in the Spanish league. Don’t forget this. If you simply compete in technology, it will be difficult for you to win the applause! "

Zhao Hanchun, Qin Rui, and Luo Hongkai nodded heavily. They valued these opportunities. At the same time, they looked at Tang Hong suspiciously. Where would he go?

"The three of you, let's go first, please feel free to call me if you have any questions."

The three of them left, there is no consideration for them whether they want to go or not. If they don't go, they may never have a chance!

Tang Hong stayed, and Van der Hill frowned and said to him: "Your situation is a bit complicated. Although you are the person who received the most invitations to tryouts, I have communicated with reasonable doubts and ruled out some clubs. There are not many choices.

Too many clubs just want you to join their youth team. I don’t deny that you will still perform well if you go to the youth team, but after all, the youth team is not under the nose of the head coach of the first team. At the same time, if you want to get a chance, the ranking is too low. The youth team players will only be given a chance when no one is available on the first team.

There are other clubs that just want to earn the attention of Chinese fans from you, that is, commercial value. They will package you as a star to hype, but they will not give you many substantial opportunities. It is a mascot that can make a fortune.

There are two teams left to choose from. I think two teams are more suitable for you. One is Montpellier of Ligue 1. They ranked 14th in Ligue 1 last season. The reason for your interest is very simple. First, they don’t have the money to buy a good striker. Second, their scoring ability in Ligue 1 last season was the second lowest among the 20 teams in Ligue 1. They only scored 32 goals in 38 games. They were relegated. Lens has 3 goals more than them.

You are a no-cost gamble that they are eager to strengthen their offense in the new season. If they lose, they can give up on you. Anyway, they don't spend money and win. They have a big harvest, competitive returns, your second transfer income and so on.

It's a bit far to say this.

The other club is Braga in the Portuguese Premier League. In the past ten years, the top three Portuguese clubs, Porto, Sporting Lisbon, and Benfica have the most stable results. Braga is the closest to the top three.

They finished fourth in the league last season and runner-up in the previous season. They were eliminated from the Champions League group stage last season, moved to the Europa League and ended up in the final with Porto in the Portuguese civil war.

Their signings in the new season are almost complete. In addition to striving to get the top two Champions League qualifications in the league, they will continue to play the Europa League.

So the choice before you is actually very simple.

Going to Montpellier, you have a high probability of directly becoming the team's forward with playing time. As long as you can perform within a month, you will basically be the main force.

Going to Braga, the competition within the team is fierce. You have to wait for the opportunity. When the opportunity arises, you grasp it. You also need to work hard to grasp the next opportunity. Only when you continue to grasp the opportunity to fully prove your ability and value, you Will become the main force, because Braga's record is under great pressure!

Going to France will make it easier at the beginning. Going to Portugal, I can't say that it is a gambling, but it kind of means it, because if Braga's momentum is like a rainbow in the new season, and the striker scores like a numb, you will not have any chance!

As for how to choose, I think you need to think about it. It's mid-July, and better places may not appear, because most teams have already completed signings or are about to complete, and they are all on the way to negotiation! "

After listening carefully, Tang Hong smiled and said sincerely to Van der Heer: "You have a good rest, it is really hard work, thank you, I will think about it, and I will give you an answer tomorrow morning."
