Chapter 33 The Battle of Barcelona
Seeing Chen Ran talking eloquently, he nodded repeatedly at what Laporta said, and then returned to the negotiating table proudly.

Fatty Louis followed closely beside Chen Ran with a serious expression.

It's just tense all over, and trembling slightly.

Chen Zhen is so good, if he goes to the entertainment industry, he will definitely be an Oscar winner.

No, I can't laugh.

You must hold back, or you will be beaten to death by Chen Ge.

Chen Ran is immersed in his role now, so he doesn't have the time to pay attention to the little fat man around him.

As soon as he returned to the negotiating table, he immediately took the lead in the negotiation.

"Mr. Laporta, in order to save time, I won't make any detours. I can't accept any of the conditions you raised just now."

"First of all, I can't take over all La Masia players who are over 16 years old. Crystal Palace is not a satellite club of Barcelona, ​​​​and we don't have so many registration places. If you can't register, those children can't play. Can't play, After a long time, they will be useless."

"Also, although La Masia is one of the best football youth training schools in the world. However, it is very successful to produce two or three outstanding players in one age group. Therefore, I believe that what you really care about is In fact, it’s just those two or three people.”

"So Crystal Palace can only accept up to five players, and they must be players with my consent."

After speaking this long paragraph, Chen Ran was a little thirsty, so he picked up his coffee and drank it, quietly watching Laporta and his assistants discuss in a low voice.

Chen Ran believes that these guys will not ask him for extravagant prices after the opening ceremony.

This year's La Masia youth training camp has trained three world-renowned stars in the future.

Among them, the highest achievement is Lionel Messi, the six-time World Footballer and seven-time Golden Globe winner.

However, Chen Ran is very self-aware. He knows that Barcelona will never let Messi go.

Therefore, his goal this time is actually on Fabregas and Pique.

That's right, Chen Ran just wanted to intercept Arsenal and Manchester United.

Pique is okay. In his previous life, he didn't gain a firm foothold after going to Manchester United. He was loaned out and returned to Barcelona soon.

But Cesc Fabregas is different. He played in the game not long after he went to Arsenal, and then gradually grew into the absolute core of the team. At the age of 21, he became the youngest captain in Arsenal's history.

During his eight years at Arsenal, Fabregas established himself as one of the world's top midfielders.

In Chen Ran's plan, Crystal Palace will play in the Premier League from next year.

Arsenal has become one of Crystal Palace's strongest competitors.

If Fabregas can be snatched at this time, it will solve a serious problem in advance.

Why not strengthen your own strength while weakening the enemy?
When Chelsea has not yet risen and Liverpool has not yet revived, Manchester United and Arsenal are the biggest obstacles for Crystal Palace to compete for the Premier League title.

If he could grab the absolute core of Manchester United and Arsenal in his previous life, Ronaldo and Cesc Fabregas, Chen Ran would be able to wake up from sleep with a smile.

Soon, Laporta and his assistants unified their opinions, and the two sides returned to the negotiating table again.

"Mr. Chen, after discussion, we agree to your conditions. There are five players in total. This is the list. You can see if there is any problem."

After finishing speaking, an assistant handed the list to Chen Ran.

Before coming to Barcelona, ​​Chen Ran had already asked Luis to do a good job of investigating La Masia. Coupled with the help of the system, he now has a good understanding of the situation of these players.

The list includes Cesc Fabregas and Pique who he is most concerned about.

However, no Messi.

"As far as I know, among the players in La Masia, there should be a child named Messi?"

Even though he knew the hope was slim, Chen Ran still wanted to struggle, maybe a miracle would happen.

"Haha, Mr. Chen really knows La Masia very well."

Laporta laughed and exchanged glances with his assistants.

"Since Mr. Chen understands La Masia, he should know that we will not let Messi leave Barcelona no matter what."

Laporta, who had been dominated by Chen Ran from the beginning, finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time.Looking at Chen Ran quite complacently, the meaning is very clear: Boy, don't be wishful thinking.

Chen Ran pouted helplessly, but I endured it.

"Let's go with these five people. However, the repurchase price is too low. The highest Fabregas is only 50 euros. I can't accept this."

"In the next two years, Crystal Palace is equivalent to helping Barcelona train new players and paying them salaries. If you exercise the buy-back right after two years, wouldn't I get nothing?"

"That's different. Crystal Palace got the right to use five players for two years for free. How can they say that they didn't get it?" an assistant of Laporta retorted immediately.

"(д.)"

Chen Ran gave the assistant a disdainful look.

"May I ask if you Barcelona will use 16-year-old children as the main force? Anyway, our Crystal Palace will definitely not. When these children come to me, it will be very good to be able to play on the bench."

The assistant was a little embarrassed by Chen Ran, and immediately closed his mouth.

"Ahem, what repurchase price do you want to set, Mr. Chen?" Laporta took over the conversation at this time.

"This Cesc Fabregas and Pique, 1000 million euros each, and the other three, 800 million euros each."

"OMG!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

"You are robbery!"

Chen Ran's lion opened its mouth wide, which immediately caused a burst of exclamation from the Barcelona negotiating team.

"Mr. Chen, please don't joke around."

Laporta's face darkened, and she looked at Chen Ran very unhappy.

"Haha, Mr. Laporta, relax. As you said before, the conditions at the beginning of the negotiation are relatively harsh. Let's talk slowly, I'm not in a hurry."

Fxxxk, go to Temeow's to relax.You are not in a hurry, I am in a hurry.

Laporta scolded Chen Ran in his heart. Now he no longer regards this kid as a young man. This is a cunning little fox.

Next, the two sides began a grinding tug-of-war.

From the competition in the unit of one million euros, to the unit of 50 euros, and finally to the unit of [-] euros.

With the cooperation of the little fat man, Chen Ran verbally fought against the Barcelona management.

The two sides fought fiercely in this conference room for three days until both sides were exhausted.

The Barcelona negotiating team headed by Laporta is, after all, composed of middle-aged and elderly people.No matter in terms of physical strength or energy, they couldn't compete with Chen Ran and Louis, two young people.

In addition, Chen Ran arranged for Luiz to create momentum in the circle of agents, spreading the news that Fabregas was about to sign a contract with Arsenal.

In the end, under pressure, Barcelona agreed to a price that felt painful even thinking about it.
