Chapter 23: Susan's First Time

The Juventus players quickly came up and hugged him, and Pirlo came up and carried Li Zihan by the waist. This seems to have become a celebration tradition for Juventus players, whether it is Li Zihan's goals or assists , someone always picks him up
"I'm going to raise my salary, I'm going to get rich!" Li Zihan, who was on Pirlo's shoulder, continued to shout in Chinese.

The team members couldn't understand the Chinese spoken by Li Zihan, and thought it was Li Zihan's excited "roar" after scoring a goal. If they understood the meaning of this sentence, it is estimated that Pirlo would give this worthless product to him. thrown into the Mediterranean.
The score of [-] to [-] was maintained until the end. Facing Genoa, which had no fighting spirit, the entire Juventus team slowed down to save energy. After all, even if they scored [-] goals, they still only had three points to score.

Now that the UEFA Champions League has started again, although most of them are substitute rotations, Juventus, who are fighting on two fronts, will definitely rotate significantly. Whether it is the European arena or the league, they will have a lot more playing time in the future.

At this time, no one will go all out to score one more goal when they are already winning. If they annoy the opponent and get hurt by them, it will be a big loss.

In the disappointment of Genoa fans and players, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and Juventus took three points at the Ferraris Stadium with satisfaction.

Because four days later, they will face their first opponent in the Champions League this season, the newly promoted European giants, the Premier League Blues Chelsea.So after winning the game, Conte did not give the players a holiday. For the No. 20 game in September, they will start their journey to London on No. 18 in advance to warm up and adapt to the venue before the game.

Li Zihan came to the stadium early today and saw Conte smiling and beckoning to him. Li Zihan ran to Conte and said, "What's the matter? Coach."

"It's not a big deal to me, but it's a big deal to you. Yesterday I said that if you can score goals, you will be given a formal professional contract. I mean what I say. Hurry up and find an agent to talk to our general manager Maro Mr. Tower to negotiate a new contract, preferably before we leave for London tomorrow afternoon."

Li Zihan was overjoyed. Although Conte had already made a promise yesterday, Li Zihan was still quite excited after being confirmed by Conte again at this moment.

He happily replied: "Okay, thank you coach."

"Don't thank me, thank you. It's your ability and performance that deserve a real professional contract. Go for it, young man." Conte patted Li Zihan on the shoulder and walked into the training base after speaking.

The training that day was basically aimed at Chelsea. Although the magic bird Mourinho has left the Blues for several seasons, the Russian oil tycoon Abrahimovich also changed several coaches halfway through.But today's Chelsea background is already very strong, and the current head coach Benitez is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Therefore, the whole Juventus team is waiting for it. Fortunately, they are in a better group in the Champions League this season.In addition to the Premier League giants Chelsea, there are Ukrainian Super League powerhouse Shakhtar Donetsk and the little-known Danish Super League North Sealand.

Generally speaking, Juventus is more dominant. Most "bricks" and "beasts" agree that there is no problem for Juventus and Chelsea to qualify in Group E, while the other two teams just come to the European arena to play in a circle. Soy sauce.

After the training that day, Li Zihan continued to welcome the beautiful Susan in his dormitory. Maybe it was after a month of getting along or maybe it was because of the reason for the dinner last time, although Susan's tone and expression still seemed a bit cold , or the original "unreasonable" is gone.

Sometimes, he often patiently explained some digressions to Li Zihan's children's shoes. Seeing that his expression was no longer as guarded as before, this made Li Zihan, who had been training hard all day, exclaim that life is beautiful.

After all, any irritability and fatigue will disappear in front of such a big beauty.

"Susan, can I ask you for a favor?" Li Zihan broke the silence between the two before sending Susan home.

"Ah?" Susan obviously didn't expect Li Zihan's sudden utterance. Although the little boy in front of her always sent her to the bus stop recently, they almost didn't talk much along the way.

Susan turned her head and looked at him suspiciously, her wide eyes were like black pearls in the deep sea, dark and beautiful.

Li Zihan was a little embarrassed by Susan's look. He was always shy in front of women, especially in front of beauties.

Scratching the back of his head, Li Zihan blushed a little: "I want to ask you to act as my agent temporarily and help me sign the contract."

"Agent? Contract?" Susan was a little surprised, she paused and continued, "But I don't know how to do it."

"It doesn't matter. The club should have drawn up the contract. You just need to pretend to read the terms. A giant like this shouldn't cheat people, and I don't understand the laws of Italy and the European Union." Li Zi Han hurriedly waved his hand.

Susan thought for a while, considering that Li Zihan really didn't understand these things, and he was relatively proficient in studying financial and trade contract laws, so she nodded in agreement.

"Then it's settled. You can help me sign the contract with Mr. Marotta tomorrow morning." Li Zihan smiled.

Li Zihan, who finally found someone to help, is in a good mood. Although he can ask professional brokers in Europe for help, Li Zihan doesn't trust them very much.

There is an old saying in China, "If you are not of my race, your heart must be different!" Although it is a bit presumptuous and racially discriminatory, Li Zihan knows some news about players who are "playing dead" by their agents. Although these things will not be reported in the news, But everyone in the circle knows it.

Leaving aside, the Frenchman Anelka and his two agent brothers in the team are examples
The beauty Susan, who lived up to Li Zihan's expectations, found Li Zihan with the signed contract at noon the next day.

After taking over the contract and looking at it, the weekly salary has increased from the original 50 euros to 42 euros, and the annual salary after tax is as high as [-] euros (professional football players generally count [-] weeks a year).Because Li Zihan is a striker, there are bonuses for goals and assists.

A bonus of [-] euros will be awarded after ten goals in the league and cup matches, and [-] euros for each goal scored in the future.In terms of assists, ten assists are [-] euros, and each subsequent assist is [-] euros.

In the case of the Champions League, one goal is [-] euros, and one assist is [-] euros.There are some additional awards for the championship, the best team, and some awards for players. Li Zihan is dizzy and his English is not bad.

But probably he can still understand that this contract is for a period of four years, and the termination fee is a four-year annual salary of about 200 million euros in total, and a signing fee of [-] euros.

In fact, Marotta wanted to sign for eight years. First, Li Zihan was very young and talented.In addition, Conte only wanted to sign for a longer period of time. Although Marotta and Uncle Conte are not bastards and mung beans, they don't see each other well, but they still believe in Conte's professional vision. After all, Bonucci and Pogue Ba is the young man he advocates to reuse and is optimistic about, and now they have also proved their ability on the field.

But Miss Susan said that the contract was unfair after seeing it for eight years, and demanded that all salaries and bonuses be tripled.Although in Susan's opinion, the salary of this contract is already very high, she knows that the expenses of professional players are also very high.The Chinese generally say that the more money you earn, the more you spend.

But Mr. Marotta, who is obviously stingy, quit. It is not worthwhile to spend so much money to raise a guy with an unknown future in his opinion. After all, he has never heard of any yellow-skinned football that can play well, even Manchester United. The substitute Japanese seemed ordinary to him, let alone this guy.

Therefore, after "friendly negotiation" and "mutual understanding" discussions, the two parties decided that the salary would remain unchanged, and the contract period would be reduced to four years. From this point of view, Susan, who "acted in friendship" for the first time as an agent, did a very good job. That's right, at least we didn't let our Mensao Emperor Li Zihan's children's shoes suffer.

"You can really consider getting a professional broker certificate, and you can just be my broker in the future." Li Zihan sighed while holding the contract.

Susan's heart moved, but she didn't say anything. After the two of them had lunch, Susan went back to school, while Li Zihan packed his things and prepared to go to London.

That's right, in the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Li Zihan was once again notified by Uncle Conte that he has entered the 18-man squad and is still a substitute.

(European competitions and other leagues basically start with 11 players and seven substitutes, which is the so-called 18-man squad. Serie A is special. They allow a maximum of twelve substitutes for a total of 23 players, but the number of substitutions per game There are still no changes to the common three.)
However, this dissatisfied Anelka, who had not played in several games, since he was replaced by Li Zihan in the first round of the league, he has not even entered the 18-man roster.Because there are too many people on the front line, there are the unshakable main striker Vucinic and the rotation of Quagliarella and Giovinco. Matri is also sitting on the bench, and Ben, who is also a center forward like him. Turner, here comes another Li Zihan.

This dissatisfied Anelka, who once played for the newly promoted giants Chelsea and was once famous, but he did not express this emotion, but his two restless agent brothers were operating something up.

Everyone in the professional football circle knows the story that Anelka, who loves money, and his two vampire brothers have to tell. This is also the reason why Anelka has a bad reputation in the professional circle despite his good football. .They always ask for high salaries and signing fees, and even put pressure on the original club on the transfer fee to get a good kickback.

Then he didn't stay in the new club for long, and then he found a reason and started to change jobs again, because his two brothers could get money again shortly after receiving the signing fee and share
This is also the reason why many coaches don't like Anelka, but the club still signed Anelka, and Conte had to use him as a substitute and a firefighter. Now Li Zihan fell out of thin air. There is nothing to do, but all of this has nothing to do with Li Zihan.
