Chapter 470

"Boss, with all due respect, although Milan has a solid background, but...they have no money now."

In the hotel suite in the downtown area of ​​the capital, the agent Tony Moretti has rushed to Long Shute's side:

"We know almost nothing about the ins and outs of this Central European sport. Among other things, they certainly cannot pay Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, Paris, and even Liverpool and Arsenal are more expensive than them. financial resources."

"Well, I know your salary requirements are not that high, but they just completed the acquisition, how much money can they spend on signings?"

Moretti looked at his employer:

"Bayern's asking price is very clear, 1.2 million euros. I am very worried that Milan can't even make up the money. If the transfer cannot be completed by then, what will Bayern think? We will become a joke in Europe It's..."

"Relax, Tony."

Long Shute still had a faint smile on his face:

"We don't need to worry so much. If he can't even pay my transfer fee, there is naturally no possibility of any negotiation. Crome, they are probably coming soon. You go and prepare to welcome them."

-

"Mr. Long is really a trustworthy person, thank you for waiting for us."

After three months, Long Shute saw Li Yonghong again, accompanied by Han Li, and they looked really busy these days.

"The two of you acted so fast, you finally didn't make me wait in vain, please sit down."

Long Shute shook hands with them with a smile, and then introduced his manager to each other.

Several people sat down.

Li Yonghong first apologized:

"Acquiring a club is much more complicated than I imagined, so we were delayed for another two days in Milan, and we just got off the plane. We arrived in such a hurry, Mr. Long laughed."

The two sides exchanged a few pleasantries before turning to the topic.

"Smart people don't say dark words," Long Shute signaled to Krom to bring tea to the other party, "Bayern's meaning is very clear, they will not stop me, but there is a transfer fee of 1.2 million euros, this matter I told Director Han last time."

"There is no problem with the transfer fee. We kept Galliani just to let him bargain with Bayern. This old guy is very good at this." Li Yonghong smiled, "Of course, even if Bayern bites We can afford this price, and I am here today to talk about the future with Mr. Long."

"future?"

"That's right," the mysterious businessman nodded, "We bought Milan to prepare for a big plan. Mr. Long is an extremely important part of our plan, so we attach great importance to you, and it is precisely because of Mr. Long With the verbal promise, we accelerated the pace, even raised the price, and completed the acquisition from Berlusconi."

Long Shute shook his head and smiled:

"Mr. Li is so flattered, I am ashamed of it."

"Mr. Long is humble," Han Li smiled and handed a folder to Moretti, "In order to show respect to Mr. Long, we are willing to provide the top salary package. You have to go through it first. If you are not satisfied, we will Discuss again..."

Long Shute didn't go to see it in person, that was the job of the agent, and if Moretti had any doubts, he could also consult a legal adviser. All he needed to do was grasp the general direction.

"Both of you used to be in capital, and you may not know very much about European clubs, but that's okay, because the principles of most businesses are the same. Come, drink tea."

He stretched out his hand as an invitation, and continued:

"During this time, the media has been reporting the news of Milan's change of ownership, and there are many reporters digging out some behind-the-scenes information, but they seem to have made no substantial progress. As a professional player, I don't care about the people behind the club. , but I think... I should be qualified to hear your plans for the club."

"Of course."

Li Yonghong blew on the floating tea leaves.

With his permission, Han Li said to Long Shute:

"Milan's lineup is actually not very different from the previous season when they won the championship. Only a few players such as Ibrahimovic and Silva left the team. The No.4 result in the league also shows that their strength is not satisfactory, at least in the league. There is a certain degree of competitiveness.

In our plan, of course, we should focus on Mr. Long and make appropriate reinforcements in some positions to build a team.As for the short-term goal, to strive for the league championship in the first year, and to hit the Champions League championship within three years, such a goal... shouldn't be too ambitious, right? "

Long Shu shrugged:

"I thought you were going to win the Six Crowns in your first year."

The two people on the opposite side laughed:

"Hahaha, Mr. Long is joking. Although we are businessmen who value quick profits, we also know that football still needs some time to develop..."

"Boss," several people were chatting, and Moretti took advantage of the gap to come over, "This contract is still a typical Italian player contract, but in terms of salary calculation methods, they provide two..."

"Oh?"

Although Long Shute didn't have much demand for money, he didn't care too much.

In addition to the signing fee of up to 2000 million euros, the other party provided two salary calculation methods:

The first is the ordinary weekly salary system. The basic weekly salary is 35 euros after tax, and the annual salary is 1820 million. Appearance fees and bonuses are calculated separately. It is conservatively estimated that it is not a big problem to get 2200-2500 million euros a year.

The second is to reduce the basic weekly salary, which is only 12 euros after tax per week, and the annual salary is about 620 million. However, in contrast, the contract has greatly increased appearance fees and bonuses, especially bonuses for goals and wins , have increased by four or five times. A goal in the Champions League can actually earn him 10 euros. If he wins the Champions League, he can get 300 million rewards alone. Get more than 108 million euros.Of course, if he suffers a major injury, or continues to score short, or the team keeps losing, his income is likely to be greatly reduced, even less than 3000 million...

Looking at the contract, Long Shute couldn't help but shook his head with a smile:

"Is this considered performance against me?"

"Mr. Long, don't get me wrong. Of course we are very confident in your ability. We have prepared the highest salary in the world, which is higher than Messi and Ronaldo," Han Li quickly explained, "But considering Regarding tax rates in Europe, if the second method is adopted, the club can actually avoid a considerable part of taxes. Of course, if Mr. Long thinks it is inappropriate, we can still use the first method..."

"Let's go with the second one. I don't have any opinions. This can be regarded as an encouragement to me."

Long Shute returned the contract to his agent and asked him to continue to study, while he changed his posture:

"In contrast, I have other requirements."

Li Yonghong smiled and nodded: "Please tell me."

"It's mainly about signings." Long Shu looked at the two people opposite him, "Since the two want to build a team with me as the core, I am also confident that I will live up to the trust and lead Milan back to the top. I need my opinion to be respected. I will not ask to buy Ronaldo and Messi. Even if I don’t buy any of them, I will have no objection, but I don’t want to buy a guy who is not pleasing to the eye. After all, no one likes to play with a player they don't like."

"Since we are a cooperative relationship, your identity is different from other players," Han Li said with a smile, "Even if you don't mention it, we will do it. The team's signings will respect your opinion. What about?"

"I have another personal opinion, let's say it here as well."

Long Shute thought for a while, and said it anyway:

"To be honest, someone persuaded me to join a Chinese-funded team whose boss behind the scene is unpredictable. It is actually very worrying. You must know that some time ago Drogba had to play international games with Shenhua because of his salary arrears. I don't want to be a joke myself."

Several people laughed. This incident has indeed caused a huge loss to Chinese football, and the reputation of the entire Chinese Super League club has been completely ruined by one owner.

Just listen to Long Shute continue to say:

"Although someone manages my investment and the income seems to be good, I am not good at doing business, so I don't know whether you bought Milan for listing or other purposes, but in the final analysis, everyone wants to be in this club. You can earn a lot of money here, and I don’t want the club to have too much turmoil. From the perspective of a stable overall situation, I think...it’s better to keep Galliani and related management personnel for a period of time to get through this period, and , Try to avoid using people related to Inter Milan or Juventus to enter the management, that will definitely arouse the resentment of fans and Milan celebrities."

Li Yonghong took a sip of tea:

"I will consider your suggestion. The fans' emotions really need to be considered. After all, it is an Italian team. Unlike those domestic clubs, most of them have no foundation and heritage..."

Several people chatted for a long time, and most of the details were basically negotiated.

When it was time to say goodbye, Long Shute took the initiative to extend his hand:

"I'm waiting for your official offer."

Li Yonghong smiled and shook hands with him:

"You won't have to wait long."

-

Only two days later, the Bayern club contacted Moretti.

"AC Milan's fax has been confirmed by Bayern, and the total offer... 1.2 million euros!"

In the summer of 2013, this was the most valuable in history!
