Although Qin Xiong did not spend a lot of time with these teammates, apart from club life, what he came into contact with the most when he returned to China were these teammates. They gathered to train together and fight side by side.
It was not a deep friendship, but there was always some special friendship in it.
In addition, everyone had repeatedly consulted his opinions and suggestions, which was also a sign of trust in him.
Qin Xiong thought about their concerns.
Economic reasons were the most important. After all, if they could not make money playing abroad and the cost of expenses was high, it was certainly better to stay in China.
Therefore, Qin Xiong told everyone about his idea of investing in a nightclub. If there were teammates who were interested, they could partner up. Whether or not they could make money, Qin Xiong naturally did not dare to guarantee, but it was easier than starting a business for ordinary people. After all, among these national footballers, there was the famous Qin Xiong, as well as well-known local star players like Zheng Zhi and Sun Xiang.
The teammates were not fools. Qin Xiong's proposal was actually to give everyone a guarantee to solve their worries.
According to Qin Xiong's financial resources, he did not need to partner up at all. However, he brought it up in the hope that everyone could participate. Even if they could not make a living playing abroad in the future, they would still be a small shareholder and a small boss when they came back.
Qin Xiong only had an idea for this project. The specifics would need to be discussed with Tang Le and Freddy. With Tang Le's connections, it would not be difficult to do this matter well.
Qin Xiong and his teammates certainly would not participate in the management operation, and Qin Xiong certainly had to control the decision-making power in his own hands to avoid irreconcilable disputes in the future.
.....
Qin Xiong was about to usher in the rhythm of resting and expanding the business at the same time. At the same time, something happened in North London that caught Arsenal Football Club by surprise.
The 27-year-old Brazilian midfielder Edu refused to renew his contract with Arsenal and left the team on a free transfer to join the La Liga powerhouse Valencia!
This was undoubtedly Arsenal's loss, and it also made Arsenal sound the alarm. They stepped up the contract renewal work with the young players. They had to lock in the players' contracts no matter what. After all, with Arsenal's financial situation, the free departure of any First Team player was a major loss. Even if there was a return of a few million, it would definitely be better than nothing.

July 1
Qin Xiong once again appeared on Central TV 5's "World Football" after a year. He had a very good interaction with the host, Duan Xuan.
Summarizing his wonderful performance in Arsenal's season, as well as his great contribution in leading China's team to the 2006 World Cup.
When talking about the differences of opinion with the China Football Association, Qin Xiong did not unscrupulously attack the leadership, but expressed his personal and objective views.
"China's football is not mature, and the management is not successful. As a Chinese football player, I think we should live in a democratic atmosphere. The players have the right to express their personal views. As for whether it is right or wrong, it is not important because no one speaks and expresses their opinion. Then the people who make the decision will not be opposed. Who can guarantee that every decision made by the decision-makers is correct? We are all offering advice for the better development of China's football. As the players involved, they naturally have their own ideas. If football becomes a one-man show, it will obviously not bring about good results. Moreover, football itself is just a sport. I think this field should be more open-minded and tolerant. "
At the scene, many audience members had already put up slogans to support Qin Xiong. Qin Xiong had been a guest on "World Football" for two years in a row, which made the show an interview. But the fans and audience liked it, so the program team certainly had no objections.
At the end of the show, Qin Xiong smiled and said, "Here is a small advertisement. Recently, blogging is popular. I don't know much about this, but someone around me suggested that I open a personal website and post some personal real-time dynamic information to the fans who like me. I think this idea is very good. Fans can also leave me a message on the website. My website will be open in the early morning of July 2."
This advertisement was communicated with the program team before Qin Xiong was a guest on "World Football". It was a condition for him to come to the show.
After the live broadcast ended, Qin Xiong returned to the hotel to rest.
Just a few hours later, in the early morning of July 2, Freddy flew into a rage in the studio set up in Beijing!
"Crashed? The server crashed? That was not the promise at the beginning! "
Yes, Qin Xiong's personal website crashed in less than an hour after it was opened because of the explosive number of visitors.
.....
Therefore, from the early morning to eight o 'clock in the morning, Qin Xiong's personal website could only be accessed normally for less than an hour. At 8: 20 in the morning, the website finally returned to normal.
Countless Chinese fans who liked Qin Xiong thought that they would see many close-ups of Qin Xiong's heroic performances on the field on Qin Xiong's personal website.
However, after visiting his website, the pictures on the homepage were shocking!
It was a picture in the blood donation car. There were three people in the car who were bleeding and leaning back slightly. Qin Xiong was sitting on the leftmost seat. Zhang Pengfei and Liu Yi were sitting on the other two chairs. They were having their blood drawn. Sylvia bent over and pressed her face against Qin Xiong's cheek. Qin Xiong's other hand gave a thumbs up to the camera. They took this moment with smiles on their faces.
The date of the photo was June 28, Qin Xiong's 20th birthday.
On this day, he and his friends participated in the free donation of blood.
It was undeniable that this was a publicity campaign planned by Freddy. As a public figure, Qin Xiong needed to build a more positive image. Propagating universal values was one of the ways.
He did not ask for everyone's approval and support, but at least many fans would nod and say from the bottom of their hearts, "Qin Xiong, good job!"
That was enough!
On Qin Xiong's personal website, there was a huge amount of information about his matches in the past two seasons. There were close-ups of his heroic appearance on the field, highlights of his performances, some comments from his opponents and coaches, and some photos of Qin Xiong's daily life, such as photos of him working out in the gym, and so on. It was because of this content that fans crazily downloaded it, which led to the previous incident of the server being paralyzed.
With the great joy of the China team advancing to the 2006 World Cup in Germany, the personal website of China's captain, Qin Xiong, further increased his commercial value because his image began to be deeply rooted in people's hearts. The more the outside world knew about him, the closer he was to the fans!
