When Mars was trapped in the whirlpool of global public opinion and unable to extricate itself, the UK brought some good news to Li Mu.
First of all, William, who had just returned to the UK, had reached a consensus with his family and officially decided to go to China as a one-year exchange student. William's intended school was Renmin University, Li Mu's alma mater.
Recent polls show that the favorability of the Chinese and British people towards each other is growing rapidly. The first major increase in the favorability of the two peoples was when Li Mu visited Buckingham Palace and was awarded the highest title by the Queen.
Subsequently, Li Mu had close contacts with the royal family, exported 3321, continued to interact with Prince William, and also purchased Manchester City Club and became the owner of the Premier League. This series of operations once again raised this favorability to a new level.
Some time ago, William was invited by him to visit Makino Technology in a private capacity, which took this goodwill to a higher level.
The increase in the goodwill between the people has further strengthened the cooperative relationship at the national level to a large extent. Trade and business exchanges between the two countries have also grown steadily, and even the embassies of both sides have relaxed visa requirements for each other.
The smooth development of the exchange student program has also made young people in the UK and across Europe become interested in China, an ancient civilization with a long history. For a time, applications from Europe to travel and study in China increased rapidly.
Even British fans, who have always looked down upon everyone, have given Li Mu a thumbs up recently. The reason is that Li Mu has received another piece of good news.
Manchester City Club has been invincible in the past few games, defeating many powerful Premier League teams along the way, and has not lost a single game since the start of this season.
The young Cristiano Ronaldo's performance in Manchester City was like a god descending from heaven. He scored goals in almost every game. He has now become the most watched star in the UK. Rooney, who was hired by Li Mu for a large sum of money, and Cristiano Ronaldo formed an excellent offensive duo. With their superb skills, extraordinary speed and awareness, the two easily tore apart all opponents' defenses.
In addition to the two of them, the young Chinese player Dong Fanzhuo also performed well. His strong physical fitness has greatly changed European fans' inherent impression of East Asian players. No one expected that a young Chinese player could actually Able to compete directly with European players on the field, not only his physical fitness is not inferior at all, but his speed and explosive power are also not inferior. His interspersed movements can often create excellent passes and assists for Ronaldo, and he even personally He scored three wonderful goals.
His excellent performance allowed Dong Fangzhuo to quickly gain a foothold in the Manchester City Club. At the same time, because of the club's special care, his mentality has always been maintained in the best condition.
Li Mu arranged for the club's CEO to add a Chinese assistant coaching team to the club. This group consists of six Chinese staff members. When they communicate with the two Chinese players, Dong Fanzhuo and Sun Jihai, they basically all use Chinese, which can provide them with Create a relatively sense of belonging atmosphere.
However, this assistant coaching team was not established just for the two of them. In the future, a continuous stream of Chinese players will go to Manchester City for trial training, and a large number of Chinese teenagers will go to Manchester City to participate in youth training camps. The main focus of the assistant coaching team in the future is service. Good for this batch of talents sent out from the country.
Dong Fanzhuo's outstanding performance has earned him countless domestic fans. Domestic TV programs, sports news and other media often report Dong Fanzhuo's performance in the Premier League. Several of his goal videos and assist videos are often shown repeatedly on major TV stations. China There has never been a player like Dong Fangzhuo who immediately shined as soon as he landed in Europe. Therefore, all Chinese fans are proud of him. Even ordinary people who don't watch football very much are because of his outstanding performance. And fall in love with him and become his fan.
Dong Fanzhuo was greatly encouraged, and at the same time he became increasingly grateful to Li Mu for his kindness, so he posted a tweet on his personal Weibo: "I am very honored to be able to play in the Premier League club and to show my ability and level. , for this reason, I would like to use the Weibo platform to thank and pay tribute to Mr. Li Mu, the owner of our club. He gave me this opportunity and gave me this stage where I can work hard to prove myself. I will definitely continue to work hard in the future and never let down Li Mu. Mr. trust in me."
Two hours after this post was posted on Weibo, the topic #东衡庄综合谢 Li Mu# was on the topic list of China Weibo. A large number of netizens forwarded, commented, liked, and even left messages on Li Mu’s Weibo. Thanks to him for cultivating a world-class player for Chinese football.
After seeing Dong Fanzhuo's good performance and seeing the hot topics on Weibo, Li Mu also posted a Weibo post. He said: "Dong Fanzhuo is a football player with great potential, but he has only just emerged. It cannot reach the 'world-class' standard. I hope that Chinese fans can treat it rationally and not praise Dong Fangzhuo just because of his several outstanding performances. At the same time, I also hope that Xiao Dong can be more successful in his subsequent career. Maintain diligent training, a clear head, and a humble heart. A good player must not be a flash in the pan. You still have at least fifteen years of career, so work hard."
There are too many "classic cases" of Zhong Yong being injured in Chinese football. Of course, many of them are due to the player's personal factors, but the praise from the media and the people is also a very important reason. The so-called praise is when the player has just shown some ability. At that time, he was crazily pursued and even given many big titles, such as the favorite used by domestic media: "Asia's No. 1 XX". This praise alone killed a lot of people.
The titles of Asia's No. 1 forward, Asia's No. 1 defender, and Asia's No. 1 center have all been assigned to Chinese players by the Chinese media. What's the result? It still took China decades to reach the World Cup once, and then it lost all three games and gained nothing.
When Dong Fangzhuo first debuted, the media called him a genius, the hope of Chinese football, and a truly world-class player in China all day long. What was the result? Even before Dong Fangzhuo found his true peak state, he began to embark on a downward path that he would never look back on.
Therefore, Li Mu specially wrote such a Weibo to wake up the fans, the media, and Dong Fanzhuo himself. If a player's career lasts for more than ten or twenty years, and he just plays a few games and then loses, then such a person It is destined to be short-lived.
…
When Li Mu was advising Dong Fanzhuo on his career from thousands of kilometers away, Mars was facing the most serious crisis in history.
After their case against Makino Technology in the U.S. District Court was dismissed, the media and people around the world were laughing at their jokes.
When a company turns into a ridiculous monkey in the eyes of the public, it is inevitable that its sales will plummet.
After the Mars board of directors fired the CEO, they held another emergency meeting. This time, what they wanted to do was impeach the chairman of the board, Roland Maas.
It's useless even if Roland Maas is a member of the Maas family. The Maas family has already spread out and has too many descendants to count. Everyone forms cliques and intrigues among themselves, and no one can save money. lights.
In this complicated situation, Roland Maas himself only temporarily sat in the position of chairman of the board of directors with a weak advantage that was not obvious. Once the major factions reach a private agreement again, the power behind him may Convert advantages into disadvantages.
What's more, Roland Maas has now caused a lot of trouble for the entire Mars. If he had killed the CEO and then apologized to Li Mu, Mars' losses would not have been as bad as they are today.
At this board meeting, Roland Maas discovered that there were new changes in the division of camps on the meeting table.
Although the meeting had not yet reached the stage of voting for him to stay or leave immediately, the indifference of supporters and the clamor of opponents made Roland Maas realize that the situation was not good.
At the meeting, someone suggested that he should take the blame and resign, and Roland Maas panicked.
Under normal circumstances, when someone raises this topic, the force behind him must come forward to support, and then immediately initiate a vote. Each board member has a different proportion of voting rights. On-site voting and on-site counting of voting rights. If there is 51% If the voting rights support him to resign, then he must give up his position immediately.
Seeing that the other party had revealed his intentions, the panicked Roland Maas stood up in a hurry and said angrily: "Our top priority now is not to discuss my stay or leave, but how to solve the negative impact that Li Mu has brought to us, otherwise If I am voted in by you, Li Mu’s influence will be there, and the next chairman of the board of directors will not have it so easy. All the pressure I face today will be inherited the day he takes office. If he can’t solve Li Mu’s situation, Big trouble, then he has to be kicked out before his butt is even hot, what's the point of doing this over and over again?"
As he said that, he added: "We can put the issue of my stay at the next stage to be solved first, and concentrate on solving Li Mu's problem first. When this fatal problem is solved, you can initiate a vote at any time, Get me out of here.”
Roland Maas's words made other board members calm down a little. What he said was correct. The biggest problem at this time was foreign invasion. When Roland Maas stepped down at this time, no matter who took over, he would have to face a crisis. Instead of this mess, it is better to resolve this mess first, and then each mobilize their own energy to compete for the new position of chairman of the board of directors.
Although Roland Maas has temporarily eased the pressure of being impeached, the targeted pressure has not diminished at all.
After intense discussion for more than ten minutes, the entire board of directors came to a decision approved by the majority of voting rights, which was to let Roland Maas go to China in person to apologize to Li Mu!
