Of course, in this process, if Lu Yang is willing, he can indeed come into contact with many backbones or big figures in this industry, because everyone is making money in the same pool and are "teammates".

This is how connections are gradually opened up.

And if Lu Yang has people who work in construction and construction around him, he can also find ways to arrange for them to go in and make some money, and truly enter this industry.

This is the best state to enter an industry.

With noble people leading the way, you can travel smoothly. The first few businesses will only make profits but not losses, and there will be no performance pressure.

The kind of entrepreneurship that rushes in without any options is just throwing money away.

Of course, the opportunity Lu Yang encountered is very rare, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for ordinary people.

His shares are even larger than those of Soto and Maniero because he did play an important role.

In addition to these, some things in football will also be tilted towards people like Maniero, Soto, and Lu Yang.

Within the scope allowed by the rules, Lu Yang can be said to be even more powerful in the next four years in Italy football, and even his dreams can come true.

Of course, Lu Yang and San Remo are so proud just because they found a godfather for Italy.

It is not difficult to understand why some teams find a Europe godfather and can also take advantage of football rules.

Having said that, these are all within the scope allowed by the rules. No matter who you are, you can't go beyond the rules, otherwise others will overturn the table.

And true honor, even with the proper help of rules, still requires absolute strength to obtain.

Therefore, apart from the confirmed match-fixing, the honor of any team is worthy of respect.

Let's talk about the second "Friends and Friends" drinking party after the banquet.

We all discussed the money matter a long time ago.

What Martivni really needs to worry about is actually the football world.

For Martivni, this is the main task, making money is only secondary. He does not become the chairman of the Football Association specifically for money.

This consciousness is really different from that of the football association leaders of some countries.

This is the true spirit of football.

"The competition for the Serie A league championship this year is very fierce. I heard that Juventus is mobilizing again." Someone said.

"This is not a problem that can be solved overnight. We can maintain fairness on the surface, but the real result of the game depends on a team with absolute strength to change." Martivni said, "This year's Fiorentina and Roma both have such opportunities."

"Not optimistic! If Juventus advances to the semi-finals of Champions League, Viola and Roma have a greater chance in the league." Maniero or even Juventus is strong in all aspects, "But if Juventus loses to Manchester United in Champions League, I think the Serie A league champion this season will still be Juventus."

The sky of Serie A is still black and white.

Many people frowned.

If it is really Juventus.

So how many consecutive championships has Juventus won?

Four consecutive championships or five consecutive championships?

How long will this go on?

The suspense and ratings of the Serie A game are declining because of this, and with it, the influence is declining.

Although the most fundamental reason for the decline of Serie A is the economy.

But since the problem cannot be solved financially, the Football Association must find ways in other aspects to at least delay the decline of Serie A.

"Actually, there's no need to worry, it's only for this season at most." Lu Yang said while the big guys were deep in thought, "I don't understand so many situations, but I understand football."

"Juventus, Milan, and Inter Milan will most likely have salary issues and contract renewal issues in the second half of this year. Viola and Roma will also face such difficulties one after another. Lazio is reorganizing, and Napoli and Atalanta have long been sharpening their skills."

"Next season's Serie A game may be the best season in history!"

"In the next few years, the old and new patterns will alternate. No one can predict whether we will be able to enter Champions League, let alone win the championship. The ratings of the Serie A league will at least not decline in the next three or four years!"

"Even with the outstanding performance of the superstars produced by Serie A in Premier League and La Liga, Serie A will receive more attention in the short term."

Lu Yang once told Moric about this content.

But speaking of it today, it is still quite novel.

Maniero later confirmed this. "Ancarelli's contract has already caused some chemical reactions in Juventus. Juventus has three veterans who hope to get high salaries and are unwilling to leave in a self-sacrificial way like Bernulini."

Blocking the muzzle is a feat. Bernulini's behavior is the embodiment of the Juventus team spirit, and it is also what other Juventus veterans will have to copy in the future.

But...Ancarelli opened up a second path.

Even if you are old, as long as your decline in status is not serious, you can still demand a high salary from the club.

If the club doesn't give it, you will transfer or even break up with the club.

This will certainly affect your own reputation, but the club's image will also fluctuate.

After two or three veteran players broke up with the club, the club's reputation really got bad.

Moreover, in order to avoid having the same experience in the future, players who are nearing the end of their careers will ask for long-term contracts at a time that makes the club uncomfortable.

Once the club makes a mistake in judgment, or the players turn around too quickly, the club will lose all its money, and its personnel positions will be stuck, making it difficult to rebuild.

These are all linked together, and may not seem to have much impact in the short term, but they will become irreversible in a few years.

"AC Milan, although the players didn't say anything, but Izelet really left, people's hearts are absolutely in turmoil. At that time, the team will definitely raise their salary to give the players the confidence to stay." Soto also spoke.

As for Inter Milan, not to mention, Talista has publicly spoken out.

Inter Milan's senior executives are said to be having a huge headache.

Do you need a salary increase after joining for only half a season?

Never heard of it!

But... for a Serie A striker who is competing for the league's Golden Boot, his annual salary of two million euros is indeed too low. After all, the maximum salary in your team is six million!

Lu Yang's statement inspired Martivni.

If nothing else happens, he will make more efforts in salary, causing these traditional giants to collapse faster.

It's not that he has trouble with the wealthy clubs, he just hopes that ordinary teams can seize the opportunity in recent years to come up with a few and give fans some freshness.

"By the way, the best player award has a very good effect, which has increased Serie B's attention and public opinion." Martivni said, "Next year at Serie A, this honor will be officially introduced."

Speaking of this, Lu Yang is not sleepy anymore.

"Dear Mr. Martivni, speaking of this, I just have some thoughts on this award recently." Lu Yang said.

"Oh?" Martivni was stunned. Did Lu Yang suffer any injustice in the selection of this award?

No, Lu Yang won the best for two consecutive months. Although the latter two were given up, it was indeed due to rotation.

Does Lu Yang want the Serie B Player of the Month for March that just ended this year?

As long as Lu Yang opens his mouth, Martivni, although embarrassed, will help Brother Lu do it!

After all, these are small things.

Even if Serie A is the best player of the month, Martivni can arrange it for Lu Yang next year.

Don't doubt the energy of the Football Association's leadership. If you do, please look east.

"No, what I mean is." Lu Yang shook his head, "This award has actually lost its effect on Serie A!"

Martivni was stunned.

"The essence of this award is to create stars!" Lu Yang said.

Everyone nodded.

Indeed.

It's not important at all to commend players or anything like that.

Creating stars, occupying traffic, causing more discussions, thereby expanding the influence of the league, this is the reason why Italian Football Federation introduced this award.

This is also one of the ways to slightly increase the influence of the league through various methods during the economic downturn.

Martivni really did a lot for Italy football.

"I have seen the list of the best players. So far, except for me, they are all forwards, and my number of goals is Serie B's first." Lu Yang said, "In other words, this award has a huge tilt towards forward players."

"Because forward players are also the easiest players to become stars."

"But what I want to say is, Serie A, when a large number of excellent players, especially offensive players, are lost, does it still make sense to select the best player representing the offense?"

"I think it is meaningless! Because even if Serie A is the best, it is not the best when it comes to Europe football, Premier League, and La Liga. This will make people feel how weak Serie A is!"

Lu Yang made an important point.

Everyone was stunned.

Holy shit!

It's true!

Not to mention Talista, if Sampdoria's 35-year-old Quagliara·Farella won the Serie A Player of the Month or even the Serie A Golden Boot, would you think he was awesome?

Maybe, but you would never think that he is on the same level as superstars like Gutierrez, Izelet, Zizo, Mario, and Gerando.

But he just "rules" Serie A.

In the final analysis, is Farella too strong or Serie A is too weak?

The answer is obvious.

"In order to avoid such embarrassment, I suggest Serie A launch his own specialty players!" Lu Yang said.

"Specialty?" Martivni chewed carefully and his eyes lit up.

"That's right, what is the specialty of Italy football? Defense, defense, defense! It can't be the world's number one league, but Serie A is not useless. Serie A can also be the world's number one defense league!" Lu Yang said, "Starting from the best player of the month, whether it is midfielder, defender or goalkeeper, we will use the resources to create several defensive stars!"

"Italy's defense is recognized all over the world. Moreover, the selection itself is also very forward-looking. In recent years, there have been many tall central defenders."

"And it hasn't been poached very much! Whether it's good or not depends entirely on Serie A himself. And everyone agrees to take credit for his ancestors!"

"As long as there is a steady stream of new stars emerging, even if the other major leagues are diligent in poaching, Serie A will still be able to retain a certain number of stars and reserve stars. The influence of the league will not be reduced too much, and it can also use this to dig out gold from gold-dollar players, which will alleviate the capital flow problems of major clubs to a certain extent."

A beautiful picture unfolds before everyone's eyes.

The cradle of world defensive superstars!

The name is not bad, and it has a certain amount of attention.

"But what if the defensive star we promoted is beaten?" Martivni asked a very critical question.

Serie A The offensive superstar cannot be praised, so why can the defensive superstar be praised?

"How many times does the European war take place in a year?" Lu Yang laughed, "Even if you really meet the top players from other leagues, you won't be so unlucky that you just get beaten, right?"

"If the defensive stars we produce don't perform well, it's easier to wash them out. Isn't it okay if they don't adapt to the environment? Moreover, Serie A defensive players, apart from anything else, have excellent passing ability no matter where they are. This skill alone is enough to make many coaches love them."

Finally, after everyone discussed it, we really felt that what Lu Yang said was correct.

Not only for the best of the month, but also for many other awards and even in terms of public opinion building, Italian Football Federation should give sufficient support and exposure to defensive stars.

The club's strategy belongs to the club, player development is decided by the players themselves and their agents, and Serie A officials must also have official ideas.

Facts have proved that officials with ideas and arrangements, no matter whether the ideas are correct or not, will at least develop much better than those leagues that do not have any guidance for free development!

Because as long as people have goals and do things, they will achieve more or less achievements.

But if people don't do anything, they won't get anything, well... BJ's demolition households and Shanghai landlords are the exceptions.

The defense is broken.

It was late at night, and Martivni felt that the time was almost up, so he began to write a summary.

He said that we can have more tea parties like this in the future, exchange ideas, and gain a lot.

Everyone said that what the Chairman of the Football Association said was right.

Before Lu Yang left, he specifically said to Martivni, "By the way, Mr. Martivni, our team's Kente is a very good defensive midfielder. His defensive data is earth-shattering, and he has quite a few points worthy of discussion by fans and the media."

Martivni was stunned for a moment, then understood and nodded.

After Lu Yang left, Martivni said to his secretary, "Check out the data of Kate's player San Remo. I heard that his defense is very good."

A few minutes later, Martivni shouted that he was awesome.

So Lu Yang, you fooled Serie A into officially building a defensive superstar just to let your team's little guy win the best of the month?

If we really consider defense, it would be outrageous for this Kente not to win the Serie B Player of the Month for March!

Training session in the afternoon on April 2nd.

"Kente, please prepare in the next two days. HXLT will formally sign a contract with you and hold a signing ceremony." Lu Yang called Kente.

Kente felt a little dislocated for a moment.

Signing ceremony?

Is this the kind of treatment he, a little black bean, can enjoy?

Is that a mistake?

"Lu! You... don't have to fight for anything with the brand for me. I know my position. I am very satisfied to get this endorsement." Kente is very sincere.

HXLT gave him an endorsement fee of two million euros and some honorary bonuses.

Although individual honors are impossible, there is still a certain chance to win the team honor San Remo.

This is a very lucrative sneaker endorsement contract.

China brand has nothing to say in terms of sales. It signs third-rate stars, but is always willing to spend first-rate money, even if it makes people dissatisfied.

But for the signing ceremony, Kente knew that he was not at that level yet.

"You're overthinking." Lu Yang said, spreading his hands, "Don't worry Kente, I didn't forcefully ask for anything from the brand. They also decided to give you this treatment after considering many factors."

"Kente, the wind is blowing. And you are standing on the cusp of the storm!"

Kente has a hard time understanding what Lu Yang said.

But he remembered the friendship of Lu Yang.

Lu Yang said that he did not forcefully ask for it, so Lu Yang at least raised his opinion.

After considering all aspects, Lu Yang's opinions and other information provided definitely accounted for a considerable proportion.

Players who can always accurately predict the opponent's ball route are not stupid.

Kente knows that Lu Yang has helped him, and he also knows that Lu Yang is unwilling to consider himself a benefactor.

What a high state this is?

Such a benefactor makes people respect and want to be grateful more than someone who claims to be a benefactor.

Kente swears that as long as Brother Lu waves the flag in the future, he will do everything possible to respond no matter where he is.

Whether it's in Italy, Spain, or England!

Brother Lu is Kente and will always be his brother!

On April 3rd, the Serie B March Player of the Month award was announced.

Compared to the usual No. 2 announcement, this time it seems to be one day later.

But many people don't care.

The error of one day before and after is not regarded as an error in the eyes of Italy people, it is a reasonable range.

As for whether there is any operation within this scope, only the participants know.

It stands to reason that the reason why the "Player of the Month" award attracted much attention at the beginning was because everyone wanted to see the effect of this award.

Therefore, the attention this award received in the early stage is almost equal to that of Premier League Player of the Month!

No exaggeration at all.

Especially after Lu Yang made a strong second consecutive move.

But in the next two months, there was a huge drop in attention.

Based on this trend, it can be concluded that by next year, no one will pay attention to this award at all. It will only receive attention at the level of Serie B.

Because next year there will be the "Serie A Player of the Month" award.

However... when this month's winners were announced, the influence of the award returned directly to the time when Lu Yang received the award, reaching a peak of attention!

Because the winning player in this issue turned out to be San Remo's defensive midfielder Eng·Kente!

Height is 1.68 meters!

I spent ten years in France, a ninth-level amateur team!

At the age of seventeen, no professional team is willing to take him in!

At the age of eighteen, he was lucky enough to join a Ligue 2 team.

At the age of twenty, his talent on the defensive end made him spotted by Ligue 2 wealthy clubs.

At the age of twenty-two, he and his team were promoted to Ligue 1 and were bought by Ligue 1's powerful team Nice!

At the age of twenty-three, after staying at Nice for more than a year, Kente was sold by Nice and thrown to San Remo.

Obviously, he does not have the strength to gain a foothold in the top league.

It can't even gain a foothold in Ligue 1, let alone the other four top leagues.

Ligue 1 is recognized as the weakest among Top Five Leagues!

Some people even like to say that the four major leagues directly exclude Ligue 1 from the top leagues.

And in San Remo, Kente is not the main force.

If Latuidi had not been injured for a long time, Kente would definitely have been the substitute, or even the second substitute.

However...

Serie B The Best Player Award for March was actually awarded to such an unknown person!

If Kente didn't smile, you wouldn't even be able to spot this player on the court.

This is an exaggerated sentence. It means that he is black, but it also means that he is unknown in San Remo.

<Why him?>

<Who is he? Why can he beat Lu Yang, Moric, Colber and other players to win the best award in March?>

<Ligue 1 eliminates products and gets the best in Serie B?>

<Italy's decline is so great that cats and dogs can win the best honor even if they go to Italy!>

<Kente? Sorry, I don't think he has the strength to convince the public!>

<The selection of Player of the Month is a joke, Serie A firmly resists it, we can't imagine this little black bean winning Serie A's Player of the Month next season!>

<The shady story! Kente's award must have a huge shady story!>

Many media have begun to question the fairness of the Player of the Month awards.

If fairness cannot be maintained, not to mention the subsequent star creation, the values of the players within the league may be affected by this, which will pose a huge challenge to the fairness of the league.

Look at the NBA. After their internal credit system collapsed, no matter how much they do, it will be difficult to regain their fans.

Many professionals believe that the "Best of the Month" award will bring little benefit to the league, but the cost may be too high, and they have begun to be skeptical about this award.

But soon, Italian Football Federation announced the personal data of Kente in March.

Moreover, Martivni personally faced the camera and announced, "This is the fifth time for the Best of the Month award. We still have areas to improve in this process."

"For example, player performance and team performance should be expressed in writing with more accurate and clear data, so that more people can clearly understand what this player has done in the past month."

"San Remo has two wins and two draws in March. It is not the team with the best record, but... they are under huge pressure. They are also setting a new Serie B record, that is... Serie B is undefeated in thirty games in the league!"

"I don't know how long San Remo can keep the league undefeated, but every small step they take forward is a big step for Serie B!"

"In terms of personal record, Kente received two assists, two yellow cards, and no red cards throughout March."

"He averaged 6.8 steals per game! He averaged 5.5 interceptions per game! Both statistics ranked first in the league, and each was 4 points and 3 points higher than the second place!"

"Average 1.9 clearances per game! You heard it right, Kente is not a tall player, but his clearance statistics are no worse than other defensive midfielders!"

"He averages seven points and one ground duel win per game, and his success rate is as high as 70%. He ranks first in both success rate and number of times per game!"

"At the same time, the average passing success rate of 82% per game is much higher than the 56% achieved by Kente in the last month of Ligue 1."

"This is a very good defensive player. While he is exerting his strongest energy, he is also making some incredible progress. This is the change that Italy football has brought to him. But he has also brought some changes to Italy football."

"Considering that the best players in the previous four months were awarded to offensive players, we believe that Kente is very suitable to be the best player in March! We should not ignore the help of defensive players to the team!"

"Serie A may not be the league with the best offense, but Italy's defense once changed the entire football world! If even Italy can't see the contribution of defensive players, who else in world football can see it?"

"This month's best award is not only awarded to Kente, but also to all the defensive players who play in Italy. Because of you, Italy football can be what it is today!"
