Chapter 370 The brain is a good thing, I hope you have it!
The press conference hall at Harrington Training Ground is very simple and there are not even any decent facilities inside.
After Gao Han took over, he purchased a lot of equipment, but the team was in urgent need of it. For those who served media reporters, he didn't care about it for the time being, so there was nothing else in the entire press conference room except tables and chairs.
In the eyes of media reporters, this is undoubtedly another crime.
If it comes to being simple, Harrington is definitely not the worst in the Premier League. At least, anyone familiar with London will know that Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United and other teams are definitely worse than here. But the problem is that after investing so much money in a summer, even the press conference hall is like this. Where is the money spent?
Of course, media reporters will definitely not ask this, and Gao Han will not say this.
The entire press conference was strictly followed by the process. Gao Han first announced the 18-man roster to go north to Liverpool tomorrow, and then briefly talked about the team's situation. He was in control of the situation throughout the process.
The reporters were also very depressed about this.
Because they found that today's Gao Han seems to be a little different, but the specific difference is not enough. It is purely a feeling, or psychological effect.
Anyway, they were sitting down and felt uncomfortable.
"Okay, let's go to the free questioning session." The press officer announced the next process.
This immediately made the atmosphere in the press conference hall liven up.
The media reporters who had been ready to go were immediately excited and all raised their hands eagerly.
"Please." Gao Han pointed at a reporter sitting in the front row casually.
There is no special standard. I just think that this young reporter who wears glasses looks very pleasing to me. Moreover, when I was speaking just now, everyone else was absent-minded, and only he was recording it carefully.
"Hello, Mr. Gao Han, I'm very happy to be the first to ask a question." The reporter stood up and seemed very excited.
Gao Han smiled faintly and nodded, "You're welcome."
Everyone present was also waiting. The first reporter to ask a question should give Gao Han a warning.
"I'm a football reporter for The Guardian, Glenn Wald." The reporter looked a little nervous. "I've always loved everything you do at Atletico Madrid."
A burst of laughter broke out in the scene.
"Oh, thank you, Glenn." Gao Han smiled.
"Hmm..." Glenn Wald seemed a little hesitant, looked around and looked at Gao Han, "My question is, Mr. Gao Han, how does it feel to coach the Premier League team? What made you choose Chelsea?"
As soon as he asked the question, a boo immediately came from all around him.
It is obvious that many journalists who are afraid of the world are dissatisfied with Glenn Wald's problem.
The glasses guy from the Guardian held up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at Gao Han, and waited for him to answer, as if he didn't hear the booing around him at all.
Gao Han smiled at him slightly, and he could tell that this was a very good young man.
"First of all, coaching the Premier League is an unprecedented challenge for me, which makes me feel very fresh and exciting. You know, everyone will habitually choose the environment they are familiar with to live, but it can easily make us slack off, so we need to travel and go to unfamiliar environments to accept challenges and stimulation."
"The same is true for the head coach to coach a team. There is no other reason why I chose Chelsea. It is purely because I feel Chelsea's sincerity. At the same time, I think it's quite appropriate, so I came."
The press officer saw that the first question passed successfully and was in a good mood, "The next question."
All the reporters at the scene immediately raised their hands again.
But this time, Gao Han randomly selected reporters seemed a little less easy to deal with.
"Hello, Mr. Gao Han, I'm from the Sun."
Gao Han raised his eyebrows, "Oh, hello."
"This summer, Chelsea's transfer story is very exciting, and we all know that the entire transfer is organized by Mr. Gao Han. We really want to know that in having this power of the whole Premier League, or even the largest in Europe, determines the destination of the transfer fee of 200 million euros, what standard do you choose a player?"
The reporter sat down after asking, but the treatment he received was cheering.
The press officer on the side was also looking at Gao Han. He knew very well the nature of these reporters, and this was just the beginning.
But Gao Han seemed to have not seen it and replied lightly: "My standard is very simple. If the team needs it, buy it."
"The next question." The press officer said again.
Soon, another reporter was called out.
"Mr. Gao Han, I am a reporter from the Independent. You seem to make sense, but how do you determine whether this player needs it? Or..."
But this time, Gao Han interrupted him before he could finish speaking, and he simply and roughly called to the microphone to stop.
Everyone looked at Gao Han strangely, and someone even wrote comments on his rude behavior in his own notebook.
"Let's just be simple and straightforward, don't waste each other's time. If you click directly, I will also answer frankly. Everyone completes their tasks and go back to hand in their own work, okay?"
After saying that, Gao Han leaned against the back of the chair behind him and looked at the reporter in front of him leisurely.
This sudden change obviously disrupted the reporters' premeditation of pulling Gao Han into the trap step by step, but the Independent News reporters quickly reorganized the problem.
"Well, Mr. Gao Han, I really want to know why you paid 10 million euros for Van der Sar? And Marklele's transfer fee is as high as 20 million euros, and everyone doesn't understand this, even..."
The reporter wanted to speak but stopped, but he completely clarified the question. "I believe Mr. Gao Han should also know the rumors outside. The fans are very concerned and hope to get your answer."
After the reporter sat back, Gao Han returned to the microphone and looked at the group of reporters in front of him.
"Is there any more?" Gao Han asked confidently, "There are still related questions. You can ask them at one time and I will answer them once."
As soon as Gao Han finished speaking, someone raised his hand immediately below.
"Mr. Gao Han, Peron has performed very badly in his two seasons at Manchester United. Everyone knows this, but why are you willing to pay him a transfer fee of more than 20 million euros? And we all know that you have a good relationship with his agent Fernando Hidalgo..."
"Okay, I understand, next one!" Gao Han cut him off without waiting for him to finish speaking.
"Mr. Gao Han, this summer, Chelsea spent a total of 200 million euros in transfer fees and invested a lot on the team's weakest forward line. But the three players brought in are unconvincing. Etoo, Ibrahimovic and Van Persie are all very young, but can they support Chelsea's offense?"
"Mr. Gao Han, when it comes to the striker, Arsenal striker Henry accused Chelsea of unreasonable poaching, and he also said that all the strikers brought in by Chelsea were added up, and he didn't score many goals in a season. What do you think?"
"Mr. Gao Han..."
...
Media reporters stood up one by one to ask questions one by one. Some asked more tactful questions, while others were very direct, and they even made it clear that they were digging a hole for Gao Han to jump. The scene was almost out of control, which made the Chelsea press officer sweat.
He found that this group of prepared journalists was even more difficult than he thought.
But when I looked at Gao Han again, I found that he was always sitting on the chair, unmoved.
Gao Han's casual look also made everyone present wonder whether he was listening to reporters' questions seriously?
But as fewer and fewer reporters asked questions, after the last reporter asked the question, Gao Han once again came to the microphone and swept his eyes to every reporter in front of him like lightning.
"Now I'll start answering the questions, answering you first." Gao Han pointed to the earliest reporter of the Independent.
"First of all, I want to say that I respect the rights of journalists. You can question everything you don't understand. This is your freedom, but I want to say, please give me some brains when you question it in the future. It is a good thing. I hope each of you has it."
Such a straightforward satirical mocking of the reporters made everyone present uproar.
"You guys have a good relationship with the player's agent, and then we can infer from this that I received black money during the player's transfer. I would like to ask, how much of the two is your own association, and how much is supported by objective evidence. If it is the former, I look down on you and reserve the right to pursue the lawsuit. If it is the latter, please provide evidence."
"We all know that Peron was once the best midfielder on the planet. I firmly believe that he is still. Even if he takes a step back, Peron has regressed in his two seasons at Manchester United, but he is still a first-class European midfielder. So, is it too much for me to buy a former top-notch midfielder in the world and now the first-class European midfielder?"
All the reporters at the scene felt Gao Han's anger and were very careful to record every sentence Gao Han said, but they did not report it for the sake of real reports, but for the sake of convenience, they dug out Gao Han's verbal loopholes word by word after going back.
"And there is also Marklele. I don't need to say more about how he performed in Real Madrid. Anyone who knows football and is not blind knows that he is not young, but I just want to ask one question. Looking at today's European football, how many midfielders can reach Marklele's level?"
"Next, use your poor mind to think about it. Who can buy these players in 20 million euros? If so, tell me, I admit my mistake on the spot and follow your opinions immediately and spend 20 million euros to buy him."
Speaking of this, Gao Han looked at the reporter in front of him with a arrogant look and asked again in a deep voice: "Is there any?"
All the reporters at the scene were silent.
Indeed, it is true that it is analyzed from the perspective of high cold.
Today, top midfielders are seriously scarce and they can’t buy them even if they spend money.
Real Madrid wanted Vieira, how many years have they been asking for, how many times have been paid, but what are the results?
But the reporters will not admit their problems, because their perspective is also correct.
For 20 million euros, buying a 30-year-old defensive midfielder, this deal is not worth it no matter how you look at it.
"As for whether Van der Sar is worth it or not, we have our own criteria for judging. I believe that time will prove everything."
The scene suddenly became silent.
It can be said that Gao Han answered the question frankly, but how the media reporter interpreted it? Whether the fans believe it or not is their own business.
Moreover, the pit dug by the media is not here, but Henry.
Henry was interviewed at the time and said what he said under the guidance of reporters, but this was definitely not respectful enough for Chelsea.
Chapter completed!
