Football: My AI System Provides Max-Level Predictions

Hosting a grand signing ceremony for Tang Long was exactly the idea of Manchester City's Commercial Director, Belada.

Belada graduated from the European Business School with a major in business, obtained his master's degree in e-commerce from Ramon Llull University, Spain, and later continued his studies in the comprehensive management program at IESE Business School.

His career path is quite unusual. Before 2004, he had nothing to do with football and worked as a product manager and commercial development manager at a telecom company in Spain.

After 2004, he entered the football field in Barcelona and served as the sponsorship director for seven years, helping Barcelona secure sponsorships. In 2011, he was recruited by Manchester City to become the international commercial development director.

After delving into the football industry for a full eleven years.

This season, he was promoted to the Commercial Director of Manchester City Club, officially entering the core management team of a football club.

Back when he participated in the Manchester City management meeting to discuss whether to choose De Bruyne or Tang Long, Belada keenly sensed the Asian market behind Tang Long, which would bring more business opportunities and collaborations to Manchester City. Hence, he strongly advocated signing Tang Long instead of De Bruyne.

He has lived in six different countries, is fluent in four languages, and has an extensive global network of industry contacts, having traveled to Asia multiple times for sponsorships.

He fully understands that Tang Long's joining is an excellent opportunity for Manchester City to attract audiences;

It is also a significant opportunity for his own promotion and salary increase!

If this opportunity is seized, Manchester City's reputation in Asia will make a qualitative leap, and his status in the club will rapidly rise.

Aiming higher, Belada has set his sights on his superior Belgistan's position.

He is not content with only working in commercial operations at this rapidly rising Premier League powerhouse; he aspires to become the Chief Operations Officer, fully managing and operating the club, realizing his ultimate dream of switching careers into the football circle!

...

Etihad Stadium.

Interestingly, Manchester actually cleared up in the afternoon, and this city welcomed a sunny day in August.

Under the azure sky, the light blue Etihad Stadium stood elegant and exquisite, yet filled with a bustling crowd.

With his wide network, Commercial Director Belada even invited the Mayor of Manchester, Andrews, and the two exchanged greetings in front of the VIP passage.

Inside the stadium.

About ten thousand fans gathered on-site to witness Tang Long's signing ceremony.

The protagonist had not yet appeared, and the fans in the stands couldn't wait to start discussing.

"Quite the fanfare, our club hasn't held a special signing ceremony for a player in a long time. The last one was Robinho from Real Madrid in 2009!"

"Absolutely! Tang cost 71 million euros, breaking the record held by Robinho for six years. This Chinese player is the biggest transfer in our history, the number one in history!"

"I remember the last Chinese player, his name was Sun, a defender, with great stamina and skills."

"I wonder what number Tang will wear? He was number 99 at Inter Milan."

"It definitely won't be 99 here; it should be a central number, possibly 10, 9, or 7!"

"10 is ridiculous; 10 belongs to Agüero. Would he give it up for Tang? 9 and 7 are both possible options."

At this moment, Manchester City's Commercial Director Belada appeared.

He walked onto the field, took the stage, and delivered a speech, highly praising Tang Long's football skills and expressing great hope for the team's future in the new season.

Subsequently, two large screens at the Etihad Stadium began playing highlights of Tang Long's last season at Inter Milan.

Through passes, dribbling, challenges, shots, Tang Long raised his arms in celebration!

The fans also followed Tang Long on the screen, raising their arms in celebration!

The carefully edited video perfectly showcased Tang Long's strengths, thrilling the Manchester City fans in attendance!

Applause erupted, especially for Tang Long's goal against Barça, where he toyed with four players in the UEFA Super Cup, earning widespread acclaim and bringing immense enjoyment to many fans, who stood up and applauded!

Countless classic moments were replayed.

And Tang Long's raised-arm celebrations stirred the emotions of Ranocchia, sitting in the front row of the stands.

As the only former teammate present, Ranocchia had gone through the ups and downs of the 2014-2015 season with Tang Long.

When the camera on the screen repeatedly focused on the roaring fans in Meazza Stadium because of Tang Long, the former captain of Inter was deeply moved.

This emotion culminated in the last scene, when the Inter team lifted the UEFA Europa League trophy, delivering a huge impact on Ranocchia.

His eyes became moist, and his nose tingled.

In Milan, he had dear relatives, friends, teammates, and fans who always supported the team through thick and thin. He didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to them at the last home game before leaving Milan.

"I believe the best midfielder in the world has come to Manchester," Belada, being a marketing expert, lavished praise on Tang Long, not hesitating to pile every good word on him, "Tang is a humble young man with great ambition; he has set the club's transfer record, his..."

Sitting behind Ranocchia was Milner, looking unhappy.

He was well aware of his current situation.

Manchester City plays the now fashionable 4-2-3-1 formation.
