After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!

On June 12th, Huang Kaiwen attended the match where Italy beat Ghana 2:0. Maldini only played as a substitute for 30 minutes, and in the evening, he and the Italy National Team chose the same hotel.

After celebrating with the Italian players, Huang Kaiwen returned to his room and received a call from the young lady.

Barça President Laporta also went to Munich.

On one hand the Barça President, on the other the future President of Real Madrid.

The young lady was having a ball, using Laporta to drive up the price with Calderon.

The young lady also mentioned that Laporta had asked about her cousin.

Huang Kaiwen didn’t know what to say.

His cousin couldn’t play football for shit—he could only play virtual soccer games.

Was Laporta also preparing to play a game of hostage signing?

Actually, going to La Masia wouldn’t be too bad; after all, Huang himself was a master of acting, quite professionally aligned.

Too bad Laporta was too late.

Huang was a man of his word; he had already accepted benefits from Be, the ownership of Milan had all been transferred to Barbara, and there really was no way to back out.

After chatting for a few more minutes, he hung up the phone.

Huang Kaiwen, alone in his room, could only go to bed early.

The next morning he got up.

Huang Kaiwen saw the news about his transfer in the ”Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.”

”Real Madrid and Barcelona are waging a battle over Kevin, aiming to keep him in the Christian World. Barcelona’s interest in Kevin is no secret; last year they tried to use Messi and Iniesta plus cash to exchange for Kevin but were unsuccessful. After being defeated by Kevin’s four goals in the UEFA Champions League final, Barça has once again pursued Kevin. It is said that Barça is willing to offer Kevin an unimaginably huge salary. Kevin is the guarantee of a championship and will also serve as a blow to their arch-rivals Real Madrid, who are also chasing him.”

No need to think twice, it was the young lady’s doing.

Few knew that Laporta went to Munich.

She really planned to use Barça to raise the price to the end, not treating Calderon like a person at all.

What rendered Huang Kaiwen speechless was.

Calderon actually accepted an interview with a German TV station claiming confidently, ”Yes, I plan to use Kevin as a gift for Real Madrid fans. Kevin has been a unique presence in football over the past two years. Such a player is fit for Real Madrid, and it also strikes a blow to the infidels. As the best club in the world, Real Madrid must bear this responsibility. My team and I are discussing Kevin’s transfer with AC Milan, and there has been substantial progress. I believe it won’t be long before we see Kevin juggling the ball at the Bernabeu.”

Calderon’s thought must be that by exposing the deal publicly, he can freely exchange it for support.

However, due to his position, Real Madrid must make substantial concessions.

Now he has no way out.

But when you think about it, it’s not an issue.

The presidents of the two La Liga giants don’t treat club money like money at all.

A bit better ones expand their own business through the influence of the team, like Calderon, who simply takes kickbacks from transfers, directly fleecing the club.

It doesn’t affect Calderon’s life if Real pays an extra fifty or a hundred million; he simply does not care.

At worst, the Madrid government will buy some land from Real.

Or the bank might provide some low-interest loans.

The Madrid government can’t let Real fall.

That’s also one of the best aspects Huang Kaiwen found about playing football for Real Madrid.

Regular teams really can’t afford his salary.

In the afternoon, Huang Kaiwen watched the Brazil Team easily defeat Croatia 2:0 at the Berlin Olympic Stadium, with Kaka scoring from a long shot after receiving a pass from Cafu in the 44th minute, and again in the second half, scoring a spectacular goal with a long sprint in the 58th minute.

After the match ended.

Huang Kaiwen went to the hotel on the Brazilian team’s bus.

He had a good celebration with the Brazilian players in the evening before returning to his room to rest.

Early the next day.

Huang Kaiwen got up, packed his things, and boarded a plane.

He flew back to Munich once again.

He found that he was busier than those playing in the World Cup without actually participating in it.

This trip to Munich was for a book signing event.

The release arrangements for ”The Extraordinary Young Master Filippo” were all planned by the young lady.

The release date was set for the day of England’s second round group match, to ride the wave of attention.

Huang Kaiwen initially thought that book signing events usually occurred sometime after release.

But the young lady believed his book would sell like hotcakes and didn’t need to follow the process of releasing first and signing later; Huang Kaiwen could only comply with the young lady’s wishes.

England’s second round was in Nuremberg.

Nuremberg is very close to Munich, the second-largest city in Bavaria, just after Munich. They could drive to the signing event and then head to Frankfurt for another signing event.

According to the young lady, there would also be signing events in major European cities like London, Paris, Milan, etc.

But Huang Kaiwen didn’t want to bother with all that.

If it weren’t for the Italy team’s next match being in Kaiserslautern, Huang Kaiwen would have been looking to grab some hard laborers.

How much can writing books earn?

He could earn it back just sitting in the stands—holding signing events was entirely for the young lady’s amusement.

...

”Let’s go, don’t let the future president wait anxiously,” the young lady said as she helped Huang Kaiwen straighten his suit.

”Alright,” Huang Kaiwen replied with a smile.

The two met with Calderon in the hotel’s café.

The man had a decent aspect, looking shrewd; Huang Kaiwen thought Calderon didn’t seem Spanish but more Greek, though he couldn’t really distinguish European ancestries.
