Arsenal triumphantly returned to London, with a grand pick-up lineup at the airport. Most local fans in London rushed to the airport to welcome the heroes' return.

Next, Arsenal began a celebration parade for the championship, and the team also held a grand carnival, celebrated in nightclubs, and had dinner in high-end restaurants.

Fleet Street evaluates Arsenal has created a new history and put a perfect end to the Highbury era!

Although Qin Xiong cannot completely relax, because the World Cup will be held next month, he cannot completely relax, otherwise it will be difficult to move again when the World Cup starts.

In addition to the two days after winning the Champions League, he spent the next few days attending social activities while using his spare time to maintain his physical condition.

Xiweiya graduated and she was almost inseparable from Qin Xiong. At the same time, she also began to take over Qin Xiong's business activity planning and make the most reasonable arrangements for Qin Xiong.

News about winning the Champions League was soon drowned under the impact of the resurgence of the World Cup.

Before he went to the national team to report to Qin Xiong, they both privately asked Qin Xiong to have dinner. They savvy Qin Xiong and naturally hoped that Qin Xiong could complete the contract renewal with the club as soon as possible.

Qin Xiong told them part of his heart.

Staying at Arsenal is his first choice now.

That's all. As for whether the negotiations can be reached smoothly, Qin Xiong did not make any guarantees.

World Cup global focus.

The Chinese team gathers at the end of May and will come to Europe to celebrate the warm-up match before the World Cup.

Qin Xiong did not return to mainland China and would meet with the team directly in Europe.

The day before he set out for Copenhagen, Denmark, Qin Xiong was called by Freddy to a restaurant outside for dinner.

Now Qin Xiong is traveling. There are countless paparazzi following him in the dark. His every move seems to be able to occupy space in the news.

As the dinner was in progress, Freddy told him: "This year you will add two important sponsorship contracts, as well as seven small brands' cooperation projects. Most of the previous sponsorship contracts will be updated, and commercial revenue will increase by about 60% over the past two years."

Qin Xiong remained silent and seemed not very concerned about this. His business value was increasing day by day, and it was difficult to expand territory in the European market, but he still began to make a difference in the European market with his personal football charm.

His money-making ability is actually among the top ranks of the football circle. Because Asia is so critical, Asian fans who devote their enthusiasm to him will pay attention to him all the time.

Now he can only make more than 300 million yuan in the football market a year. If he adds the profits of the company he and Tang Le are in partnership, his net worth is estimated to be able to exceed the one billion mark in the next two years.

But this is not what he cares most about now. He knows that Freddy came to him for dinner today, and the topic he wanted to talk about was definitely not this.

When the dinner was almost over, Freddy held the glass and said, "I wanted to talk to Arsenal about your contract renewal after the World Cup, but Arsenal couldn't wait. Dane asked me to meet for two consecutive days to discuss your contract renewal. I made an excuse to refuse for the time being and planned to go and talk to him in detail tomorrow."

Qin Xiong smiled. Arsenal Club is anxious to renew his contract with him, which should be a good sign.

But Freddy poured a basin of cold water on him.

"Don't think that Dane's enthusiasm is simple, it's not, because Arsenal doesn't want to delay your contract extension until after the World Cup. In that case, they may pay a greater price and will not meet your requirements."

"How do you say this?"

"Don't talk about the Chinese team, maybe all Asian teams are not valued by the outside world in this World Cup. What I am talking about is the scope of European football. The reason is very simple. On the land of Europe, even South American heroes have never reached the top here. This is the world of Europeans. South American teams are not able to act wildly, let alone the Asian teams that the European powers have never taken seriously. This is especially true for the Chinese team. The outside world will not have expectations for the Chinese team. Even if you are in the Chinese team, the same is true. It is not because of you that the Chinese team will definitely be looked up by the outside world. Think about how many superstars there are missed in the World Cup?

Because of this, Arsenal clubs have a risk assessment. The Chinese team will go home after a quick turn in the World Cup group stage. No matter how bad the performance is, it will not affect you, because the outside world does not expect it. But what if the Chinese team can reach the top 16? What about the miracle of a small dark horse? Your personal prestige and influence, and the clubs you are interested in? This will affect your value. After the World Cup, Arsenal will meet your contract renewal conditions and may pay a greater price. In this context of stable losses but not profitable, Arsenal naturally hopes to complete your contract renewal sooner."

Football is simple, but this circle is actually very complicated.

Qin Xiong doesn't like to think about these things, but he can figure it out as Freddy said.

Freddy continued: "According to the information I have received, the Arsenal executives are actually a little dissatisfied with you because they feel that their personal expansion is too fast. Think about the price you paid to sign you two years ago, but now the contract is renewed but the Lions speaks loudly. This is not just greed, but also a kind of arrogance in their eyes that does not know how to be grateful."

Qin Xiong laughed at himself.

Greedy?

Arrogant?

If he was greedy, he might not have come to Arsenal at all.

The current contract renewal conditions and position are also to make yourself the most important player in the team, rather than how much money you have made.

Only when Arsenal dares to make a big investment in Qin Xiong can Qin Xiong firmly believe that his relationship with the club is valued by each other.

He has never taken other clubs, and the treatment standards of giant clubs are used to measure the compensation he received at Arsenal.

From beginning to end, he focused on the club's internal salary system.

Using the salary system to establish one's own team status is the most normal thing in the football circle.

"Kyle, no matter what, I just want to see a good result. You go to negotiate with Dane tomorrow and show up directly. In short, I hope that the renewal of the contract will have a result before the World Cup starts, so as to avoid distracting during the World Cup."

Freddy nodded slightly, and he thought so too.

Anyway, we either talk after the World Cup or before the World Cup. If we talk during the World Cup, not only Qin Xiong himself cannot concentrate, but also creates power due to media attention.

After finishing the dinner, Qin Xiong returned home and packed his luggage and prepared to board the plane to Copenhagen the next day.

The Chinese team's warm-up before the World Cup is more particular. Since they were assigned to Group D, the other three opponents were Portugal, Mexico and Angola.

The warm-up before the World Cup was selected in Denmark, Tunisia and the United States.

Because the group opponents come from Europe, North America and Africa respectively.
