230 Caesar's Secret [First Explosion](1/2)
"Hello, Caesar!"
At No. 24 Dulini Street, Batistuta and his agent Setimo Aloisio arrived here on time, passed through the blocking of countless reporters outside, and walked into No. 24 Dulini Street.
They had just undergone a physical examination in Inter Milan. Although the laboratory's physical examination of Batistuta was so meticulous that it could almost be said to be tedious, fortunately, Batistuta's physical condition was in good condition and all kinds of data were excellent, so they came to Dulini very smoothly.
As early as after the physical examination, Yang Cheng received a text message from Chris Schmidt on his phone, "His body is almost perfect!"
In a word, Yang Cheng has already got the answer he wants!
Everyone sat down in the conference room, Yang Cheng, Morati and Facheti represented the club, while Batistuta and Setimo Aloisio sat opposite them.
Morati did not hide his love for Batistuta. After sitting down, he kept showing his enthusiasm for Batistuta. When he heard that Yang Cheng wanted to get Batistuta, he agreed without hesitation.
Yang Cheng, who was standing beside him, looked at Moratti talking about his love for the God of War, but he was secretly amused. Fortunately, everything has been negotiated now. Otherwise, if you meet a shrewd agent like Moratti, you will definitely take the opportunity to kill him, because anyone can tell what he wants.
Our chairman really doesn’t know how to hide it!
Yang Cheng and Fachetti looked at each other and smiled at each other.
"Okay, Gabriel, let's talk about serious things first!" Yang Cheng took advantage of Morati's speech and immediately changed the topic. "You are also very clear about the team's current situation. We decided to arrange your signing and meeting tomorrow, but before that, we need you to choose a jersey number!"
Batistuta looked at each other and nodded, "Is there any choice?"
"You can take a look!" Yang Cheng handed over a piece of paper, which listed Inter Milan's jersey numbers that have basically been fixed this season. Among them, Simeone's jersey number was directly given to Van Bomel, and the jersey numbers of other players did not change much.
Batistuta swept the list with his agent, and he saw Ronaldo's name on his favorite No. 9 jersey and Van Nistrui on the forward's favorite No. 11 jersey.
After seeing this, Batistuta immediately understood Yang Cheng's intention. He knew that if he wanted to stubbornly choose his No. 9 jersey in Fiorentina, he would have to have a dispute with Ronaldo, and he might not even be able to grab Ronaldo, because the latter is the favorite super forward of Inter Milan fans today, and he is a newcomer.
"Boss!" This time we met, Batistuta's name changed, "Which one do you think I should choose?"
He asked this question with a smile, without any leniency.
"No. 18, the number belonging to Klinsman!"
The golden bomber Klinsmann was the former three-horse of Inter Milan. Although Bati's characteristics are somewhat different from him, it is not difficult to see Yang Cheng's expectations for him from this.
Avoid Ronaldo and Van Nicht and choose the 18-arm uniform that also has the tradition of striker. This is indeed a good choice!
Batistuta just thought for a moment and nodded, "Just listen to you!"
Things went smoothly, especially Yang Cheng. He felt that even if Barty was acceptable, at least he had to consider it. Who would have thought that he would answer so readily?
"Okay!" Yang Cheng nodded with admiration.
Facheti immediately asked the staff to write Batistuta's name on it, and with the No. 13 chosen by Nesta before, Inter Milan's jersey number for the new season came to an end.
"Gabriel, the team will gather on the 10th to prepare for the new season. I hope you can prepare all off-court matters before this!" Yang Cheng also put forward his own request.
"You can ask the club's service department for houses, cars, children's school, and a series of other things. They will help you solve everything. I only have one requirement for you. After the 10th, I will devote myself to the preparations and training in the new season!"
Batistuta nodded and agreed, "I promise!"
After the two parties reached an agreement, the club immediately arranged personnel to follow him, asked him about his housing, family work, children's schooling, etc., and helped him find several houses and several good schools, so he asked him to choose from.
It can be said that in this regard, what Inter Milan does is much better and more humane than Florence!

The next morning, at the base of Pinetina, press conference hall.
When Yang Cheng took Batistuta into the press conference, countless media at the scene rushed up, and the spotlights stimulated everyone to blink. Countless reporters asked countless questions in an instant, all of which were targeting Batistuta.
The press officer followed the press conference process and first stabilized the reporters and held the signing ceremony between the two sides. After both sides signed the contract, Yang Cheng took a new season's Inter Milan jersey with No. 18 and Batistuta's name printed on it and handed it to Batistuta's hands.
The latter held the jersey and let the reporters take photos. After a while, they began to enter the free questioning session.
"Gabriel, after learning that you switched to Inter Milan, many Fiorentine fans started to get angry and thought you had betrayed them for the sake of money. Do you have anything to say?"
A trace of depression flashed in Batistuta's eyes, but he shook his head and said, "Those who know me will understand me!"
One sentence blocked countless people's mouths!
"But you did leave them in the most difficult time in Florence!" The reporter still chased and beat him hard.
Batistuta is a good old man who doesn't like to say bad things about some people, so he looks more speechless.
"I have something to say!" Yang Cheng got into the topic.
The reporters immediately turned their attention to Yang Cheng, and some of them loved, hated and feared him.
"Gabriel's salary in Inter Milan and Fiorentina is similar, and it's not for money. Besides, we decided to take action after Fiorentina pushed him into the transfer market, so I don't think he took the initiative to betray Florence!"
"Of course, I don't deny that it's difficult for Fiorentine fans to accept this, but I have to remind these fans to ask themselves, a player who has been loyal to Fiorentine for 9 years and is the most precious 9 years of professional players. Can you doubt his loyalty?"
"I believe that over the years, Gabriel should not be short of buyers, but he has never left, but has left this summer. Is there nothing wrong with it?"
The reporters rushed forward and wanted to ask what was wrong with the management of Batistuta and Florence, but Batistuta and Yang Cheng never answered positively, but Batistuta became a little grateful for Yang Cheng's initiative to defend him.
"Mr. Yang Cheng, with the joining of Batistuta and the dust of Nesta's transfer rumors settled, the Inter Milan lineup in the new season is so strong that it is beyond remarkable. Do you think Inter Milan's goal in the new season will also be improved? Will you go further based on the Serie A championship?"
Yang Cheng smiled slightly, "If it were me to decide, of course I would win all the championships, and everyone would be happy!"
Everyone laughed after hearing this.
"But I always think that if a team wants to achieve results, relying solely on stars and lineup alone is not enough. They must also be united and must play every game down-to-earth. As for the goal, it is something that is constantly adjusted as the league deepens and progresses."
The reporters couldn't help but nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
"What about your current goal?"
Yang Cheng thought for a while, "If you compete for the Serie A championship, the UEFA Champions League, the top 8!"
The reporters immediately laughed again, this was slapping some people in the face.
After everyone finished laughing, Yang Cheng couldn't help but joke, "I wonder if anyone plans to bet with me again this time? Just bet on the quarterfinals of the Champions League!"
Many reporters immediately looked at Farage. This guy was stabbed like a needle with his eyes, but he had to choose to ignore it because he didn't dare to bet anymore. If he lost again, it would be embarrassing to the house!
"Gabriel, all of us know that you have always worn No. 9 jerseys in Fiorentina, but after coming to Inter Milan, they changed to No. 18. Does this mean that you understand your positioning and take the initiative to admit defeat in the competition with Ronaldo?" An Italian media with ill intention stood up.
Batistuta did not change his face, but always maintained that flat smile and nodded: "I admire Ronnie very much. He is definitely the number one striker in football today, but I am full of confidence in myself. I will compete with him and Luther."
In one sentence, people can feel the confidence of the God of War!
"The reason I chose No. 18 is because the club currently has this number. No. 9 and No. 11 belong to Ronnie and Luther. I respect them. I know very well that when I come to Inter Milan, my task is to play football and help Inter Milan achieve higher achievements, rather than to compete for jersey numbers. Otherwise, I would go to the store outside to buy a few No. 9 jerseys with Batistuta's name printed on it, and go home and take a look!"
At the end of hearing this, everyone laughed again.
I have to say that Batistuta's response was very appropriate and resolved this crisis very well.
Afterwards, the reporter asked several targeted questions, but they were all resolved by Yang Cheng and Batistuta.
After the press conference, Batistuta came outside accompanied by club staff.
Batistuta, wearing the No. 18 jersey, met with fans who had already gathered at the Pinetina base, which attracted all the enthusiastic resounding from Inter Milan on the scene. The scene was very hot. The veteran who had been in the football world for many years also interacted with the fans and won the favor of Inter Milan fans.

…………
After a series of activities, Batistuta returned to the training building at the base.
"Hi, Gabriel!" Captain Bergomi came to the training base for some time. When he saw Batty walking in, he immediately met him.
"Hello, Giuseppe!" Batistuta is also an old man in Serie A. He has fought with Bergomi many times, especially their position is just right. However, his former competitive relationship has become a teammate now, which is always a bit awkward, so he is extremely polite.
"Come with me, I'll take you around and check out your room and locker room wardrobe!"
The two of them came to the locker room of the training base one after another. Each of the wardrobes here was inserted with a name written on it, representing the owner of the wardrobe.
Batistuta glanced over and found that Nesta and others who had joined this season had all got their own wardrobe, so he chose one casually. Bergomi directly wrote down Batistuta's name on it and then took the card.
He introduced the order and situation of the locker room, and as usual, he gave him a booklet of Yang Cheng's locker room rules, then left the locker room and came to the players' activity area.
"The activity area of the Pinetina base has many entertainment facilities, including billiards, table tennis, TV, computers, video games, etc. This area belongs to our players. You can relax here after training!" Bergomi introduced while walking.
Batistuta followed behind. When he was about to enter the gate of the event area, he found a notice posted on it.
"Player area, non-players are prohibited from entering!"
"What does it mean?" Batistuta found it very novel. He rarely saw such places.
Bergomi stopped and laughed. This problem was strange to almost every newcomer, including Nesta, because it was not available in other teams.
"The boss said that players also need privacy and the team should provide protection, so when he arrived at the team, he specially opened this activity area where players can talk without any scruples, even scold our boss, or plot to overthrow the boss's rule. Even if the coaching staff and staff know, they will not enter!"
"Why?"
Bergomi smiled. He didn't understand it very much at first, but after a year, he understood it a little bit.
"The locker room has the rules and creeds of locker rooms. If everyone wants to integrate here, they must abide by these rules and creeds. The purpose of the Head's establishment of the activity room is to protect the privacy of the locker room, ensure that the coaching staff and clubs will not intervene, put pressure on the players, and ensure that everything in the locker room is handled according to the locker room guidelines!"
When Batistuta heard this, he couldn't help but feel very novel, but when he thought about it, he looked at Bergomi.
The latter shrugged, "Yes, I am the locker room leader who established after the boss came, but he never asked me even a word about everything that happened here, he was a man who kept his promise!"
Batistuta believed that if Yang Cheng secretly inquire, the establishment of this place would be completely unnecessary.
"The head likes to be honest and direct. If you have anything, it is best to tell him directly that he doesn't like someone to hide his doing anything, but once he knows your difficulties, he will help you without reservation!"
Bergomi's words gave Batistuta a deeper understanding of this Pinetina base, which would be of great help to his future familiarity and integration.
