I returned to Valencia from Paris on the same day I won.
The European continent is not big. The entire European continent is about the same size as China. Taking a plane from Paris, France to Valencia, Spain is about the same as flying from Xi'an to Beijing, or even worse.
Chang Sheng came to the club the next day and asked Paris Saint-Germain for a price in the name of the club.
The answer he received was as expected from Chang Sheng, a very formulaic "Ronaldinho is not for sale to Paris Saint-Germain."
Paris Saint-Germain refuses to sell Ronaldinho.
Chang Sheng was mentally prepared for this answer.
Paris Saint-Germain is unwilling to let go of Ronaldinho, which is normal. If it were him, he would not be willing to let go of such a talented player.
But they are unwilling to let it go, and they have to let it go are two different concepts.
Chang Sheng is very aware of how things will develop in the future, so he has the confidence to convince Paris Saint-Germain.
Although the financial crisis of Paris Saint-Germain only broke out at the end of June, there were actually signs of it even before that. At least the top management of Paris Saint-Germain knew it very well.
Because the main shareholder of the club is the French Canal_Plus (Channel) TV company, and the TV company is a subsidiary of Vivendi Media Company. Vivendi Media Company has recently fallen into an economic crisis. In order to reduce debts, get rid of the burden and move forward lightly, maintaining
Wendi hopes to separate the TV station.
Although it has not been announced to the public, senior people within the group already know it.
If Straits TV is sold off, PSG's fate is unlikely to be much better.
Where will Paris Saint-Germain go when it loses its financial assistance?
The club cannot but consider this issue.
If at this time I can send an offer that makes Paris Saint-Germain's heart beat.
It should be possible to pry open Paris Saint-Germain's closed mouth.
Historically, Paris Saint-Germain should have announced that Ronaldinho could leave at the end of June, but if he had to wait until then, I'm afraid the day lily would be cold.
Chang Sheng couldn't wait that long.
He wants Ronaldinho now!

Faced with the reply from Paris Saint-Germain that it was not for sale, Chang Sheng was not discouraged and started to make an offer directly.
The first offer reached €25 million.
This is a full 10 million more than the transfer fee he spent to buy Deco.
But such a small amount of money was obviously not in the eyes of Paris Saint-Germain. They refused directly.
Chang Sheng remembers that when Barcelona successfully took away Ronaldinho, they spent 28 million US dollars, equivalent to approximately 32.25 million euros.
This price was not an exaggeration in the European football transfer market at the turn of the century, where sky-high prices were frequently achieved.
So after Barcelona acquired Ronaldinho at such a low price, some media once exclaimed that this was a miracle in this year's transfer market!
You know, Paris Saint-Germain once priced Ronaldinho at 50 million euros!
This price tag scared away many people.
However, this price tag was just after the World Cup. At that time, Ronaldinho was very famous in world football and had the aura of World Cup championship.
Ronaldinho did not leave at that time, but chose to stay at Paris Saint-Germain.
Paris Saint-Germain's poor performance this season has also affected Ronaldinho, and his value is not as good as last year.
But if you don’t have 50 million, you have to have 40 million.
Changsheng makes his second offer, 30 million euros for Ronaldinho!

Paris Saint-Germain is also troubled by Valencia's tireless pursuit of Ronaldinho.
Although they reply to Valencia, Ronaldinho is not for sale to them.
But is it really not for sale?
They know very well, not at all.
Paris Saint-Germain is mentally prepared for Ronaldinho's departure.
This psychological preparation began to exist after Ronaldinho became the main core of the Brazilian team and won the World Cup.
Last summer, there were a lot of rumors about Ronaldinho's transfer.
But at that time, Ronaldinho had just transferred to Paris Saint-Germain for a year. Paris Saint-Germain was very confident in retaining talents and had a very tough attitude.
Now one year later, the team's performance in the league is very poor, and the club has little confidence to retain people.
They all know that with such poor results, it will be difficult to retain the stars in the team.
They all think Ronaldinho is leaving, the question is when do they want Ronaldinho to leave.
Ronaldinho stated in March that he wanted to leave the team.
He said in an interview at the time: "Like all professional players, I am eager to participate in a European competition, I mean the three major European Cups, and preferably the Champions League."
"Our club is lagging too far behind now. In addition to trying to help the club win, I even pray that other clubs ahead of us will lose more. How much I want to become the French champion."
In other words, if Paris Saint-Germain wants Ronaldo to stay, it must at least be able to participate in next season's European competition. The Champions League is best, but if it is not possible, it must also be the UEFA Cup.
However, there is no hope of winning the league title now. With four rounds left in the league, they are 11 points behind Monaco, who is ranked first.
They can only hope that the team can win the French Cup, but the gold content is too low, and they don't know if they can keep Ronaldinho.
In addition, Ronaldinho is the only player in their team that can be bought at a starting price. If the club really encounters an economic crisis, it will have no choice but to sell Ronaldinho...
The only problem is to receive a satisfactory offer when selling Ronaldinho.
For this reason, they acquiesced in Ronaldinho's agent and his brother Assis's private contact with Manchester United.
They just want to see how much money those teams that claim to take away Ronaldinho at all costs can actually pay for Ronaldinho.
Unexpectedly, the old fox Ferguson has been reluctant to pay. Although he had contact with Assis, he did not express his position and did not reveal any flaws.
As a result, the offer from Manchester United was not received, but the offer from Valencia was received.
Before Valencia asked the price, they really didn't expect that this team would also be interested in Ronaldinho...
When Ronaldinho returned from the World Cup with great success last year, even teams such as Newcastle United expressed interest in him, and Valencia was not among the long list of suitors.
The first offer was 25 million euros. Paris Saint-Germain looked down upon it, so they rejected it without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, Valencia re-quoted a new price that day, this time increased by 5 million, becoming 30 million euros.
Paris Saint-Germain hesitated.
Is a player who has won the World Cup but has never really proven himself in the European arena really worth 30 million euros?
※※※
Two days later, Chang Sheng received a reply from Paris Saint-Germain - rejection.
Paris Saint-Germain rejects Valencia's €30 million bid for Ronaldinho.
The first rejection was on the same day, and the response was almost immediate.
Paris Saint-Germain refused simply and neatly.
This time, the other party took the exam for two days.
This detail made Chang Sheng realize that there was a way!
But this time he didn't immediately quote again.
Although time is tight, you can't act like an idiot who hasn't seen a woman in ten years. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
Although the money is not his own and will eventually be spent by the club if he doesn't spend it, Chang Sheng doesn't want anyone to be a cheat.
He did not continue to offer Paris Saint-Germain, but called Ronaldinho's agent, his brother Robert Assis.
During the phone call, Chang Sheng did not ask Assis about the results they were considering, nor did he ask Assis to help him put pressure on Paris Saint-Germain.
Just simply tell the other party that Valencia Club has made an offer to Paris Saint-Germain.
He didn't say anything else, but he believed that Assis would make his own judgment.
Who is the most sincere towards Ronaldinho?
Not the hesitant Manchester United, but us Valencia!
※※※
After Paris Saint-Germain rejected Valencia's offer of 30 million, a sense of expectation suddenly arose.
They are expecting another offer from the Valencia club...
However, to their disappointment, there was no news about the Valencia club.
They no longer continue to quote!
This is something that Paris Saint-Germain regrets a bit.
Thirty million euros!
If they agree, there will be 30 million euros!
With these 30 million euros, the club will have money for signings in the new season.
But they were rejected personally!
Some of them even have ideas about whether to contact Valencia and quote their price...
Fortunately, in the end, their remaining sanity allowed them to give up.
If they take the initiative to make an offer, it will only let the other party know that they really want to sell Ronaldinho. That is absolutely not possible.
So now they can only remain reserved while secretly hoping that Valencia can continue to make offers.

Changsheng left Paris Saint-Germain alone, and then went to prepare for the weekend's league. In the 32nd round of the league, Valencia challenged Racing Santander away.
In the last round of the league, when Chang Sheng flew to Paris to watch Ronaldinho's game, Valencia defeated Alaves 3-0 at home.
As Real Sociedad lost to Barcelona, the gap between the first and second place in the league widened to five points again.
With seven rounds left in the league, five points is still not a very safe lead.
In the match against Racing Santander, Valencia finally went from home to away, and then they immediately felt the difference between home and away.
The referee is very strict with their penalties. As long as their players have any physical contact with Racing Santander, as long as a Racing Santander player falls to the ground, it is basically a foul on Valencia's part.
The Racing Santander players were rude in defense, but the referee indulged them blindly.
Chang Sheng watched this game in the hotel room. When he noticed the performance of the referee in this game, he snorted coldly.
This is the referee committee protesting to itself and expressing its dissatisfaction!
I forced one of their colleagues to retire. I guess in the eyes of these referees, I am already the biggest enemy of the head coaches.
It seems that after this, the treatment of my team in La Liga will not be very good...
But, so what?
In order to please the referee, but ignore their obvious misjudgments, turn a blind eye, or even swallow their anger... These are not a winning style! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a member of Piaotian Literature
