Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 916: Huge business opportunity slipped away?

Chelsea's CEO received the call and quickly reported to his boss Abramovich.

Therefore, there are no shots that are not suitable for children in the new Vlog.

But it greatly satisfied the appetite of the fans.

Not only were there shots of Abramovich chatting, but T9, who had just transferred from Liverpool to Chelsea, was also pulled over after the training.

When the two bosses got together, they let him stand in the C position for a group photo.

By the way, he was also asked to act as a tour guide and gave viewers who watched the Vlog a tour of Chelsea Club's training center.

So many fans expressed their love for the new Vlog, and the large number of Vlogs emerging on Bilibili are actually based on sports.

Xiangyang was also a little surprised when he heard it.

He thought that it would be a celebrity or internet celebrity who would join in the fun first.

But after learning a little more about it, he understood this phenomenon.

The UTMB event itself strongly encourages participants to wear official sports cameras to capture some wonderful shots.

We even arranged for a number of photographers to use special equipment to capture the beautiful sections of the race in the woods.

It will be edited and played in the form of highlights after the game.

In addition, two major events advocated by HYS are about to be held, and in fact, the popularity is no less than that of celebrity gossip.

"Come on, Xiangyang, look at the camera." In less than half a day, Liu Qianqian has basically mastered the Vlog shooting techniques.

But unlike Xiangyang who always likes to take pictures of himself, Liu Qianqian prefers to share what she sees through the camera.

then
The SLR camera was in her hand, and the picture was aimed more at Xiangyang.

"I have nothing to shoot."

"I'll practice on you first." Liu Qianqian smiled slightly, "I can also take pictures at the marathon competition. You have to perform well."

"."

Xiangyang was surprised. Who would carry a camera and run a marathon for no reason?

Liu Qianqian said "Oh".

Who said she brought the camera to the marathon to shoot a Vlog for Xiangyang? She just thought it was quite interesting to record their lives in this way.

However, Abu rarely appears in her shots.

I'm shy.

But Xiangyang, who appreciated the content of today's Vlog, was a little unhappy.

Is T9's freckled face that handsome?

It would have been fine if there were so many people praising him in the comments, but the camera was even pointed right at his face, as if they were afraid of missing a single second of him showing off his coolness.

Is it great to be able to play football?
I still prefer Suarez, the player I just signed.

After finishing the temporary trip to Chelsea, Xiang Yang and others arrived in Liverpool that afternoon.

As the chairman of the club, it is a rare opportunity for him to come back. Even if he doesn't stay to watch the Premier League game on the weekend, he should still meet his newly signed players.

Apart from Suarez, Liverpool's winter break relationship has basically come to an end.

In addition to Suarez, there was also a young man who greeted Xiang Yang and others at the training base together with sporting director Edwards and head coach Hodgson.

Midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, who just joined the team from Gent.

This is the "Ding Ding" that everyone is familiar with.

Of course, the team captains Gerrard and Carragher will also be present on such occasions.

Facing the camera, several people wished everyone a "Happy Chinese New Year" in broken Chinese.

Xiangyang nodded with satisfaction at such a simple welcome ceremony.

Foreigners also know how to flatter.

"Welcome to the Liverpool family."

After greeting and shaking hands with Suarez, Dimitrov and Varane respectively, Xiangyang left his wife, the camera crew and others to the group of Premier League players.

With Bi Shaffer accompanying them on their tour of the club, Xiangyang didn't have to worry at all.

Since he was at the club, he was also prepared to take some time to listen to the sports director and head coach’s summary of their work during this period.

"Isn't that goalkeeper coming?" I have the impression that Edwards signed two players from Gent Club.

"Our technical team feels that he needs more game training now," Edwards explained.

After saying that, he glanced at head coach Hodgson next to him.

It seems that although the signings during this winter break met some of the head coach's demands, they did not meet all of them.

Not to mention a young goalkeeper.

Even Jordan Henderson, who joined the team earlier, did not even make the first team.

As for Ding Ding who just greeted Xiangyang.

He is also still adapting in the reserve team and can’t even get a bucket from the first team’s bench.

The team also got into some trouble after the Christmas battle.

"Mr. Chairman, I would like to communicate with you alone." Facing Edwards' gaze, the old coach Hodgson said firmly.

Xiangyang frowned and looked at little John who was sticking to him and refused to leave.

Little John looked at Xiang Yang pitifully, and his eyes were almost exactly the same as the expression he had every time he begged Xiang Yang to pay the bill.

Xiang Yang sighed, "Then you guys go to the office and wait for me."

Seeing that Xiangyang had no objection to his attending the class, little John was secretly very happy.

Liverpool have not been doing well in January.

The club's sporting director and head coach's conflicting views on the future team building were once again exposed.

He really wanted to see if Hodgson was ready to make trouble.

In order to succeed Xiang Yang and gain experience as the club chairman.

"You guys take a good look around first. I have something here that will take some time." After instructing a few people to wait for him in the chairman's office, Xiangyang quickly returned to Liu Qianqian and others.

Although he is not familiar with his club's training base.

But he was very clear about the process of the visit.

The first place to visit is definitely the club's Hall of Fame.

After calling Liu Qianqian to his side and briefly explaining the situation, Xiangyang thought for a moment and added, "If you are late, you can have dinner first and don't have to wait for us."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy." Liu Qianqian smiled.

She seemed to be mentally prepared for Xiangyang to be busy after arriving at the club. When filming the Vlog at Stamford Bridge, she heard Abra talking to Xiangyang about football for a long time.

Although I don’t understand it, the standings won’t lie.

After several games over Christmas, Liverpool was still ranked sixth. Less than a month later, it had dropped to 14th.

Xiang Yang, who has been voted by Liverpool fans as the "most unreliable club chairman in history", must be having a hard time.

But Xiangyang was very disdainful of this evaluation.

When he signs Cristiano Ronaldo next year, he will definitely be praised to the sky.

As for whether C Luo will come.
Football is round.

Everything is possible.

Anyway, Bulgarian striker Berbatov rejected Liverpool's invitation in front of the media.

When Xiang Yang returned to his office, Little John had already prepared coffee for him. "Here, Xiang, Liverpool's coffee tastes pretty good."

Xiangyang nodded, took it and went to the sofa and sat down face to face with the old man who had been waiting for him for a while.

"Coach Hodgson, do you want a drink?"

Xiangyang added emphasis at the end.

He has prepared himself mentally for a protracted war.

Hodgson looked at Xiangyang and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I'll just have some black tea."

After saying that, he glanced at Little John, who came over with a cup of coffee and sat down. There was no hostility in his eyes, but as he said at the beginning, he hoped to have a one-on-one communication with Xiangyang.

"You don't have to worry about his existence. Our communication today will not be known to outsiders."

Xiangyang saw what the old coach was thinking and smiled slightly.

Hodgson's expression froze when Xiang Yang saw through his thoughts. He took a sip of his tea to cover it up and reorganized his words, "Chairman, I am responsible for the team's performance in these games."

Xiang Yang looked at him encouragingly, "Be more specific."

"." Hodgson was stunned.

More specific.
I'm just making an opening statement, okay? The only person I wanted to buy was Suarez, and all the others were rejected. I wanted to strengthen the back line, but I bought a young French Ligue 1 defender.

Ok.

Edwards also keeps buying young players with offensive attributes in the midfield.

Okay, I admit that the club only started signing Henderson after my observation, but what does it mean to squeeze in De Bruyne, who has no experience in the top five leagues, during the winter break?

There is no place for him in Liverpool's midfield.

I'm almost bringing the team to the relegation zone!

What I need is to finalize one or two important reinforcements as soon as possible within this last week.

Ricky Lambert I have used it as you intended.

My dear Mr. President.

Are you planning to let me take responsibility for the failure of this season and resign voluntarily?
I won’t leave even if the penalty is less than one cent.

"Coach Hodgson, you may have misunderstood." Xiangyang heard the usual complaints but did not feel annoyed.

It is normal for employees to have emotions.

But when it comes to matters like resignation, Xiangyang still has to explain.

"Even if you resign today, the club will not owe you a penny of liquidated damages in order to thank you for your contribution."

"???"

"???"

Both Little John and Hodgson were shocked.

Xiang Yang nodded. "Yes, Coach Hodgson, you heard it right. We just have a disagreement on the focus of the future club construction, which does not mean that the club will deny your contribution to the club. To be honest, your courage to give up the Fulham coaching position and come to Liverpool to take on the challenge is worthy of our respect."

"Mr. Chairman, I don't mean to resign now, I just..." Hodgson whispered.

Compared with the speech of the young man in front of him, his words just now were obviously full of anger, which really made the old coach lose face.

"It's okay, our door is always open to you," Xiangyang continued.

Just resign.

Xiangyang had no intention of pampering this stubborn old man.

They had previously decided to find a fire-fighting coach to clean up the mess before making a show of force, but they gave up because their favorite tinkerer Ranieri was not willing to leave Rome.

But Xiangyang, who had just come from Chelsea, didn't have to worry too much at the moment.

If we can't invite Ranieri, then just ask Fatty An to come.

It just so happened that Abu was unhappy with him.

It is true that those who suffer from drought will die of drought, and those who suffer from floods will die of floods. After coaching Chelsea last year, Fatty Ancelotti won the Premier League and FA Cup double.

However, this year he was disliked by Abramovich because he was unable to lead the club to a breakthrough in the Champions League and the league.

On my side.
"Mr. Chairman, do you mean I was fired by the club?" Hodgson was surprised.

Xiang Yang, who had already broken through the window paper, shook his head and said, "You submitted your resignation to me, and I just chose to respect your wishes. Of course, as I said before, I will ask the club to pay you compensation according to the contract."

"As for when you are willing to leave the club this season, I also choose to respect your thoughts. I wonder if this can relieve the pressure you are under now?"

Hodgson smiled bitterly. That was a really nice thing to say.

After so many years in the industry, he has coached many clubs including Crystal Palace, Inter Milan, Blackburn, West Bromwich Albion, Fulham, etc., and won many honors. Although he has dealt with too many club executives, this is the first time he has met a club chairman like Xiang Yang.

Because of the decline in performance and unfavorable recruitment, he chose to put pressure on him by forcing him to abdicate.

On the contrary, in just a few words, I became an unemployed vagrant.

wrong
You shouldn't say that.

"Xiang, what do you mean?" Little John, who had been watching the show from beginning to end, was also puzzled.

As a veteran football fan, he has seen too many clubs firing coaches and coaches firing clubs.

But I've never seen Xiangyang fire a head coach like this.

"My meaning is very straightforward." Xiang Yang didn't even bother to look at Little John, but continued to explain to Hodgson:
“Coach Hodgson, you don’t have to take any responsibility for this season’s results. I just hope that you can let go of any pursuit of results and concerns about the results in the future and enjoy this season wholeheartedly.

But I also have a request, if the club's points touch the relegation zone."

"What the chairman means is that I just need to fully cooperate with the club's transformation and successfully finish this season?" Hodgson felt that Xiangyang had a unique idea.

But you know what, the more he thought about it, the better it seemed.

I don't get along with the sports director.

Leaving Liverpool was inevitable.

But the conditions Xiangyang has offered now are indeed good. He will take the money, continue to lead the team and direct the game, and then leave the club after the season ends.

You can also take away a considerable amount of compensation.

this.
At the very least, this is much more respectable than being fired by the club in disgrace.

At the end of the season, he can also look for his next job with his coaching team.

Both sides gained dignity.

"If Liverpool can get a place in the European competition at the end of the season, I will personally give you a generous bonus." Xiang Yang said confidently.

There is probably no chance of winning the Champions League.

We still have to fight for the Europa League.

After all, without European competitions, it will be difficult for the team to recruit players next season, and operating income will also be affected.

"Mr. Chairman, are there any players I must use?" Hodgson did not agree immediately.

Because of his understanding of people like Xiang Yang who are new to the Premier League, he still wanted to confirm something.

Who knows if Xiangyang will learn from his friend Abu and force the coach to use his favorite players?
"Until you leave the club, no one will have any problem with your lineup."

Xiang Yang shook his head.

If you listen to both, it will be bright, and if you listen to one, it will be dark.

Although Hodgson looked down on the young players that Edwards tried hard to introduce, he had his own subjective reasons.

But perhaps, this also has something to do with the players' own abilities.

Although De Bruyne is indeed a future superstar, even if he doesn't watch football, he has heard of him, but it seems that he is not the kind of star that suddenly appears.

"Okay, I get it, Mr. Chairman," Hodgson muttered.

Staring at Xiangyang's face, he paused for a moment before speaking: "Thank you, Chairman, for your trust in me. I will do my best in the future."

On the same day, Liverpool's most important local media, Liverpool Echo, published a report that Xiang Yang returned to the club to support Hodgson.

At the same time, Liverpool Club’s official website also issued two announcements.

The content of the first letter was almost the same as that of the Echo, except that there was an additional photo of Xiangyang, Edwards and Hodgson in the same frame.

The second one is
"Boss, YouTube has responded. They will cooperate to set up a special search on the website."

"Okay, I know."

Xiangyang, who couldn't have dinner with Liu Qianqian and others, certainly wouldn't let his assistant go.

Accompanying him to work overtime were Edwards and John Little.

and those in the club’s public relations department.

The second announcement on the official website, in addition to confirming the filming of a Liverpool-related movie, also included two items that needed to be specifically implemented by the public relations department.

One is to arrange for all the club staff to record a video to wish Chinese New Year to the fans.

Another thing is to sincerely invite fans to shoot Vlogs of watching the game.

"Xiang, do you think it would be feasible to let the players record their own Vlogs?"

Making a movie is not difficult for John Jr.

So, sitting in the conference room, besides looking through the data of the first Vlog, he was also wondering why Xiangyang was using this method to get more people involved in the Vlog.

Is it to stir up this topic?

Ok.

possible.

After all, only when more and more people get involved will it gradually become an influential emerging trend.

Then let the players come in as well.

Who knows, if it goes well, it might even help CFT sell a few more jerseys.
"Oops! How come I was so busy eating melons that I forgot to invite Liu to visit the CFT store."

Xiangyang was stunned when he saw Little John walking out of the meeting room in a hurry.

What is this guy going to do again?

It's better to communicate with older people. It's more worry-free.
