"If Barcelona and Real Madrid want to play in Monaco, they should play in the Noble League. I believe that without them, La Liga will be very competitive and very eye-catching."

On the eve of the World Cup, when all media reporters changed their goals and paid attention to the upcoming World Cup in South Africa, many Spanish media were paying attention to a dispute in the domestic league.

Sevilla President Del Nido publicly criticized Barcelona and Real Madrid in newspapers.

"The greatest sorrow in La Liga now is that the eighteen teams watch the two giant teams compete and watch them win their players but are powerless. All the sins that cause them are attributed to the TV broadcast fee."

Delnido said that there are very serious unfair distribution of La Liga TV broadcast fees. In this unfair environment, the living environment of the eighteen teams has serious problems, and even a financial crisis has occurred.

In addition to the wealthy Real Madrid and Barcelona.

"I think the league is a common wealth. In addition to the two giants, we have eighteen teams. If these clubs can unite to resist, then the two giants will have no choice. We have the ability to expel them from the La Liga if they are unwilling to sit down with us to negotiate."

"We are a whole. Every team has the obligation to maintain fair competition in the league and make it more exciting and competitive. We should divide this piece of cake fairly. Our common decision is the foundation of this league."

"There is no doubt that we are working on a feasibility plan, and we have even started negotiations. We have been preparing for this plan for a long time. It is our responsibility because we can't watch the two giant teams control the vast majority of the league's finances. It is unfair to us. If we can't get out of this situation, we will go into a dead end."

"The league is a league of twenty teams, and even everyone. If they want to compete with us, it should be fair. In some cases where objective conditions are no longer fair, at least the distribution of interests should be reasonable."

"What I want to say is that the current competitive environment of La Liga is very disgusting. Without two giants, La Liga is still good-looking."

Many La Liga media have reported Del Nido's remarks on the front page, especially as he pointed the finger directly at Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​which is undoubtedly more eye-catching.

But this also brings a question.

…………

…………

"Why did he choose to publicly bombard Real Madrid and Barcelona in media newspapers?"

In the living room of Rafenka's home in western Madrid, Lin Xia asked Gao Han about the newspaper's questions in confusion.

Xiao Gaoshen was sitting on the ground not far away, playing with his building blocks and toys himself, looking happy.

"The first thing is to win." Gao Han smiled.

"The uneven distribution of interests in La Liga is a long-standing old problem. It broke out many times when I coach Atletico Madrid, but it has never been taken seriously."

"Why?" Lin Xia didn't understand.

"Real Madrid and Barcelona don't care what other teams think. They each negotiated with broadcasters. The broadcast fee is expected to account for 25% of the total revenue of the 20 La Liga teams. That is to say, the two teams took away 50%, and the rest was left to 18 teams."

"Atlancia, Valencia, Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao have a relatively large influence in their respective regions, so they can also get a relatively large part, but less than one-third of the two giants, and the newly promoted teams like our Chinatown are even less than one-tenth of Real Madrid and Barcelona."

It can be said that this is absolutely unreasonable.

"For a long time, La Liga mid- and lower-level teams have hoped to reform the league broadcast rights, follow the Premier League model, concentrate all broadcast rights, gather them in the hands of the Spanish professional league, jointly develop them, and maximize interests, but the claims have never been met, and have been delayed over the years."

Lin Xia was even more puzzled, "Isn't it good to imitate the Premier League model? La Liga is the world's number one league now, but the broadcast rights revenue is so small. Imitating the Premier League model can maximize the benefits. If the cake becomes bigger, it will also be beneficial to the long-term development of Real Madrid and Barcelona. Why are they unwilling to?"

After hearing this, Gao Han shook his head and laughed, pointing at his wife to his heart, "Human heart, my wife."

"In fact, in the final analysis, these two giant teams have their own interests. Under the existing broadcasting rights distribution model, the overall revenue of the league is less than half of the Premier League. However, the broadcast contracts signed by the two giants and broadcasters are far more than any Premier League team, including the champion team."

"It can be said that under the existing broadcasting rights distribution model, it is to exploit the interests of the 18 teams to strengthen the strength of the two giant teams, but this is only a financial aspect. Because of the unfair distribution of broadcasting rights, the fiscal revenue of La Liga teams is generally unsatisfactory. Therefore, once an excellent star embryo emerges, it will be poached by the two giant teams immediately. This is equivalent to the eighteen teams working for the two giants."

Lin Xia understood a little when she heard this.

"On the other hand, for broadcasters, they are more smart. The most attractive thing in La Liga is Barcelona and Real Madrid, so they negotiated with the two teams and gave them extremely high prices to tempt them to sign contracts. As for the remaining eighteen teams, they were very passive when they talked again, which is called defeating one by one."

When Gao Han said this, he sighed again, "This is only the level of clubs and broadcasters."

"Is there any other reason?"

"Although the success of the Premier League has made countless people envious, it also sounded a wake-up call for some vested interests, especially after the establishment of the Premier League, the broadcast rights of the league were handed over to the Premier League's operation, and the FA completely became a supporting role, which is an unnecessary waste."

"In our opinion, the Premier League is booming, but in the FA, the prosperity of the Premier League has nothing to do with them. What about the Spanish Football Association? They are willing to watch the La Liga team integrate the broadcast rights and leave them to the Spanish Professional League to operate? Isn't that a repeat of the mistakes of the FA?"

When Lin Xia heard this, she suddenly realized.

It turns out that there are so many layers of interest relationships involved. No wonder the redistribution of the broadcast rights of La Liga has not been improved over the years.

The Spanish Football Association, the giant teams, and broadcasters, all three parties determine the lifeblood of the reform of the broadcast rights of the La Liga. If they refuse to reform, there is no way.

"Can you really continue like this?" Lin Xia was a little dissatisfied.

She is Gao Han’s wife, so she naturally thinks about problems from the perspective of Chinatown.

According to Gao Han, Chinatown won the eighth place in La Liga last season, but the broadcast fee assigned was almost one-quarter of Portsmouth, which ranked last in the Premier League. What an embarrassing thing?

You know, that's tens of millions of euros.

If you have this money, why bother with Chinatown whether to sell people?

"It's not completely impossible." Gao Han smiled unpredictably, "You see, teams like Sevilla would definitely not come forward easily, but now Chairman Del Nido publicly criticized Real Madrid and Barcelona in the media. Isn't this a very interesting sign?"

"you mean……"

"The reason Delnido came forward is because he felt the threat. Before Barcelona dug Alves, they felt very wronged. Now they want to poach full-back Adriano, and many players in Sevilla have also been poached. Of course he is afraid."

Gao Han said this and laughed, "There is a good saying: "Walking against the current, you will retreat if you don't advance. Especially in recent years, the income of the Premier League teams has increased rapidly, and even the income of the relegated teams is higher than theirs. Sevilla has fewer and fewer chips to retain players. In addition, the poaching of the two giants, they can be said to be attacked from both sides."

"There are teams such as Atletico Madrid, Valencia and Athletic Bilbao. They all clearly felt the threat, so I have a hunch that they will stand up sooner or later, especially after Del Nido comes out."

As the saying goes, a spark can start a prairie fire, this is the reason.

The benefits of broadcasting rights reform to Chinatown are also obvious, and Gao Han has no reason not to support it.

Everyone knows that the club's income is the three pillars, game day, broadcasting rights and commercial operations. Now Chinatown only relies on commercial operations to support it, and game day income depends on new stadiums. If there is a breakthrough in broadcasting rights, it will undoubtedly greatly alleviate the team's current embarrassment.

Of course, it is not realistic to want to reform at this time, especially to coordinate the relationship between all parties, which is even more difficult. However, in the long run, the reform of La Liga broadcasting rights has become a general trend and is imperative.

Why?

The reason is that in addition to the two giant teams Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​other La Liga teams have become increasingly powerful and have an increasingly powerful voice and influence.

For example, Atletico Madrid achieved shocking glory under Gao Han’s coaching during the transition period of the century, the two coaches after the Bed Sheet Legion, Heinquez and Simeone, both took over Gao Han’s class well. The Bed Sheet Legion’s performance remained very stable, and now the new stadium has been fully completed and put into use.

Judging from the current situation, Atletico Madrid has the confidence to challenge Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Teams such as Valencia, Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao are also not to be underestimated, and now another Chinatown has emerged.

In terms of its influence and attention around the world, Chinatown is second only to Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in La Liga, but if it is in China, Chinatown is definitely the number one in La Liga.

As early as last season, Chinatown suffered heavy losses due to the poor broadcasting conditions on the stadium and had great opinions, but Chinatown had no choice because it had no money.

Under such circumstances, the conflicts of interest between all parties will become more and more serious, and the contradictions will become more and more intense. It may even be that at this moment, a corner that Gao Han didn't know is slowly brewing changes.

Just as Gao Han was thinking about it, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

The caller ID is Xiao Hill.

Gao Han was a little surprised because he did not notify these old friends when he came to Madrid this time, and he was about to set off for South Africa. Why did Xiao Hill suddenly call him?

A minute later, Gao Han turned off Xiao Hill's phone and smiled slightly at Lin Xia opposite him.
