Chapter 700 World's No. [-] Worth!

"120 pounds." Rodriguez said the figure almost word for word.Rodriguez's heart beats terribly fast at the thought of being involved in the craziest transfer in football history.

"2000 million... 2000 million pounds?!" Li Rui was also choked up. Although he was prepared for his worth reaching [-] million pounds, when he heard [-] million pounds When I saw this number, I was still shocked.

"It turns out that I'm really so valuable." Li Rui muttered to himself. This price also made Li Rui feel the sincerity of Real Madrid. The idea of ​​being the core is very interesting. Now he feels that, just looking at the worth of 2000 million pounds, Li Rui's future position in Real Madrid is almost established.Of course, he needs to prove that he is worthy of this worth.

"Already negotiated?" Li Rui still felt a little dazed. In fact, this is understandable. Even Li Rui, the person involved, would not be unmoved when he heard that he was worth 2000 million pounds. A kind of pride and pride also arises spontaneously, no matter who it is, this worth is enough to be proud of the football world!

The kind that has no predecessors before and no one to come after!
***********
"Well, Manchester United has approved Real Madrid's offer in principle. Of course, all of this requires you to reach a personal contract with Real Madrid and sign it. It will be legally valid, and the FA and the Spanish Football Association will file for approval. " Rodriguez said, "Mr. Florentino invites you to Madrid for an interview."

Li Rui thought for a while and said, "You can talk to Real Madrid first. I won't have time until after the Confederations Cup. You can explain to Mr. Florentino Perez for me. one time."

"OK, I will solve these things." The transfer has been halfway through, and Rodriguez is also in a good mood. He joked, "You didn't perform well in these few games in the Confederations Cup. It will be halfway soon." The final is here, and the opponent is Brazil, right? You have to show that Kaka is a strong country, and I will be more proactive when negotiating a personal contract."

"No problem, haha, just wait and see me blow up Kaka." Li Rui is also in a good mood, not because he is happy to be able to transfer to Real Madrid, but because his future is finally basically determined, which also makes Li Rui Rui feels relieved and can concentrate on playing football. As for the personal contract, it just needs to be negotiated. Neither Li Rui nor Real Madrid think that the transfer value of 2000 million pounds has been reached, and in the end it will be because of the personal contract. Caused the transfer to fall through.

***********
The camera turns to Florentino.

Unlike Abramovich, the fan owner of Chelsea, and Berlusconi, the owner of AC Milan who emphasizes political leadership, Florentino, who has been speculating in Spanish politics and business for many years, knows how to run his club and what he believes in. The idea is that a player's fame can bring benefits.

In 1995, Florentino participated in the Real Madrid presidential election for the first time, but lost to Mendoza by 698 votes.He made a comeback five years later, winning over Senz with 55% of the vote.However, in addition to a trophy in the honor room, Sanz left behind a foreign debt of up to 2.7 million euros, which made many people worry about how Florentino should face it.

However, Florentino did not think about making money to pay off debts when he took office. Instead, he bought Figo from Barcelona and Zidane from Juventus.It wasn't until a year later that the general framework of the team was basically formed that he began to show his true qualities as a shrewd businessman --- he sold the Sports City in the city center to the Madrid City Government for a sky-high price of 4.8 million euros, which not only paid off the previous debt in one fell swoop. Debt, also accumulated the first pot of gold in the transfer market.Subsequently, he added Ronaldo, Beckham and Irving to his account.

Although Real Madrid encountered the Waterloo of the "Zidane + Pavon" policy during his five years in power, and only won two La Liga titles and one European Champions Cup, Real Madrid's top position in world football has been established. Even after he resigned in February 2006 due to a poor record, the club's name is still the best.

Florentino's superstar policy also made the Bernabéu a place where stars really shine. The chairman of Real Madrid once said a meaningful sentence. "As far as Zidane is concerned, everyone thought that I bought the most expensive player in the world, but then I realized that I bought the cheapest player in the world."

Years of speculative experience in politics and business told Florentino that a valuable investment does not depend on how much money you spend, but on how much return you get.If the return is greater than the investment, the deal is a success.

The introduction of Zidane, Beckham and others did cost Real Madrid a lot of money, but the commercial effect they brought to the club was equally huge.According to the figures provided by "Marca" and "Aspen", Beckham brought Real Madrid an additional income of 4 million euros during his four-year period, while Zidane and Figo only spent two years. In one year, they helped the club earn more than 1.5 million euros in profit. At the same time, they also made the club's annual income jump directly from 1 million euros to 3 million euros.

***********
A month ago, at the Ritz Hotel in Madrid, in front of a 20.5-meter-high, 12-meter-wide, and 5.7-meter-high background wall, a businessman named Florentino announced that he would participate in the Real Madrid presidential election this summer.This has long been no secret, but all Real Madrid fans are still delighted by the news, because everyone is looking forward to the godfather-like figure back in charge of the Bernabeu, and everyone is waiting for the day when he officially announces.In the words of the Ritz Hotel's official website, "This perfect house is worthy of the prestigious Florentino."

"The room at the Ritz Hotel is said to be perfect. More than 200 journalists from various countries around the world witnessed the scene where Florentino announced his return."

Now, a month and a half later, Florentino is the chairman of Real Madrid.After Kaka joined Real Madrid, the player that Florentino tried to bring to the Bernabéu three years ago when he did not resign, is about to come to this stadium.

***********
In Florentino's office at the Bernabéu, Valdano is reporting the latest progress of Li Rui's transfer to Florentino.Florentino puts Li Rui's transfer as the top priority, and he has to listen to Valdano report at least five times a day to keep abreast of the dynamics. During the negotiations with Manchester United in the past few days, Florentino He personally called Ferguson three times, and finally went to London yesterday to have a secret meeting with Ferguson. Finally, the two sides reached an agreement on the transfer fee during this meeting.

Florentino Perez has several offices in Madrid, and he likes the one at the Bernabeu Stadium best, because the large photos of Figo, Zidane, Beckham and others he introduced in the corridors are always People can't help but miss the glory of that period of time.

He took the blame and resigned in 2006. After three years, Florentino returned to the Bernabeu. The chair in his chairman's office at the Bernabeu has been replaced. The chair he used to sit on was brought back from the Bernabeu warehouse.Real Madrid officially bid farewell to the absurd Calderon era and returned to the Florentino era.

***********
Florentino, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, sat on his 'lost and found' chair, listening to Valdano's report.

"Manchester United has given a formal written reply, and they have accepted the offer. We can discuss a personal contract with Li Rui."

Florentino looked up at the wall of his office, just like in the corridor, he also hung on the wall of the office when he introduced Figo, Zidane, Ronaldo, Beckham and other superstars, The photo of shaking hands and taking a group photo, the stars are still shining as time goes by, and the Bernabeu is a bit dim, but his eyes are cast on the latest photo, which is the photo of Kaka joining, Florentino is refreshed, His star-studded galaxy warship set sail again, and a most dazzling diamond called Li Rui will also be inlaid on the roof of the Bernabéu!

***********
"Very well, let our people discuss the contract with his agent." Florentino nodded, "I look forward to meeting Li Rui in Madrid as soon as possible."

Valdano nodded, and his heart was also full of excitement. Thinking of the transfer fee that shocked everyone and made everyone crazy, Valdano, who was used to big scenes, was also fascinated. He could almost imagine that when the outside world knew this What a crazy scene it will be when the specific amount of the transfer fee is revealed.

***********
"How's the cleanup going on in the team?" Florentino asked.He was referring to the cleaning of the team.

In fact, when it was confirmed that Florentino was elected as the chairman of Real Madrid, the Spanish media predicted that Real Madrid would face a big purge. The most important thing is to clean up, whether it is to remove the shadow of the predecessor, or to leave room for his signing plan, some people in Real Madrid's current team cannot be favored by Florentino.At least ten players will be destined to be purged, including the Dutch gang.The specific ten people will be all the Dutch gang - Sneijder, Drenthe, Robben, Huntelaar, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Van der Vaart, plus Forber, Salgado and two other players.

Robben's problem stems from the characteristics of his glass man. Florentino described Robben as saying, "This is a person who can't play on Wednesday and Sunday."As for Huntelaar, Florentino didn't like it at all. Thinking of bringing Li Rui to the Bernabeu, Florentino would still have Huntelaar there.

"Still negotiating, the problem is that potential buyers are trying to lower the price." Valdano said, he is also very helpless, other clubs naturally know that Real Madrid is going to purge these players, although Florentino sees I don't like these players, but it doesn't mean that no one looks down on them. Whether it is Sneijder, Robben or Van der Vaart, they are all top stars and have many fans. However, these teams know that Real Madrid is determined to After cleaning, they tried their best to lower the price to get these people at the price of cabbage.

"Okay, you can figure out these things, and come to me if you have any questions." Florentino said.

Valdano agreed. He knew what Florentino was talking about. For example, the friendship between Florentino and AC Milan vice-chairman Galliani was one of the reasons why the Rossoneri released Kaka. The reason is that now, the Milanese have taken a fancy to Huntelaar but are only willing to pay 1000 million euros. This is the time to test the personal friendship between Florentino and Galliani.

"The matter of Li Rui's transfer should be put first, and everything else can be temporarily postponed." Florentino waved his hand and instructed.

Valdano naturally agreed, and Valdano, who left Florentino's office, saw Zidane in the corridor.Zidane took the initiative to greet Valdano, and Valdano also pulled Zidane, thanking Zidane for his personal role in Li Rui's transfer.Zidane and Beckham jointly visited Li Rui, allowing Real Madrid to take the lead in Li Rui's transfer from the very beginning. However, the initiative is in the hands of Real Madrid.After all, the player's personal will is a really important factor.

Zidane also seemed very happy. For Li Rui to join Real Madrid, the former French superstar strongly supported him. In Zidane's view, Li Rui is the kind of player who can really bring Real Madrid a championship.Li Rui's strength, professionalism, and huge influence have made Zidane and Real Madrid quite satisfied.

***********
June 2009, 6, Bloemfontein, Confederations Cup semi-final, Brazil VS England game.

The game has progressed to the last 10 minutes of the game, and the score on the field is Brazil 2:0 England.At the beginning of the game, England suffered a great blow. When Terry was defending a corner kick, he raised his arm and hit Melo in the face. Melo immediately screamed and fell in the penalty area. The referee Terry was immediately punished for an elbow, not only a penalty kick was awarded, but Terry was sent off.

Kaka hit a penalty kick, Brazil took the lead from the very beginning, and there was one more player on the court. It can be said that the balance of the game was tilted towards Brazil from the beginning. In the 23 minutes of the first half, Fabiano A long shot helped Brazil lead 2:0.

***********
"The England team is still looking for goals. We can see that Li Rui is in better form today than in previous games. However, when Terry was sent off at the beginning, Mourinho had to replace Rooney with Brown, so that the England team only has Li Rui as an attacking point, and he looks a little lonely in front."

While the commentator was talking, Ashley Young was dribbling the ball from the side. He saw that the Brazilian defense line seemed to be preparing for an offside. However, their actions were inconsistent, and Lucio dragged behind. Li Yang immediately made a cross!

Li Rui rushed towards the penalty area. He rushed to the football landing point, made an emergency stop, then turned around and stretched out his feet to stop the football firmly under his feet. When Lucio was still raising his hand to signal Li Rui to offside, Li Rui had already quickly Turning around, without the slightest sloppiness, kicked and shot!
Lucio raised his hand to indicate that Li Rui was offside, which also interfered with Cesar's judgment. He was obviously unprepared for Li Rui's shot, and the football flew from Cesar's hand into the back corner of the goal!

"The ball went in!!! Li Rui!!!"

"goooooooooooal! It's so beautiful! It's so beautiful! This is the demeanor of the top scorer in world football. The Brazil team hesitated for a moment and conceded the goal! 1:2! England scored a goal, and the game was less than 5 minutes away , I don’t know if England will perform a miracle!”

***********
After scoring the goal, Li Rui had no time to celebrate the goal. He rushed into the Brazil team's net, snatched the football from Cesar, and wanted to kick off quickly, but Cesar didn't give him the football. The two also clashed.The referee gave Li Rui and Cesar each a yellow card.

Although Li Rui worked hard and wanted to score again, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the score on the scoreboard did not change. England 1:2 Brazil, they were defeated The Samba were eliminated.

Li Rui seemed a bit disappointed. In this game, England lost to Brazil. In Li Rui's view, there was another meaning. He lost to Kaka. Although the referee's red card at the beginning of the game was questionable, it changed the game. Balance, but Li Rui didn't consider these. In his opinion, if you lose, you lose. There are so many reasons.

Kaka took off his player and wanted to exchange with Li Rui. Of course, Li Rui readily agreed. The two chatted for a while with their bare shoulders draped over each other's jerseys.

Li Rui still thinks it's interesting at the moment. I'm afraid Kaka doesn't know that he will be teammates with him in the club.

***********
The England team was knocked out of the Confederations Cup by the Brazilian team, which disappointed the European champion who was aiming to win the championship. The English reporters on the press box at the stadium thought that the referee ruined England's Confederations Cup dream, otherwise With Li Rui's rebounding state today, today's game result is really hard to say. England reporters, especially England fans, now generally have a kind of blind trust in Li Rui. As long as Li Rui is in good condition, England will be invincible. Dugu seeks defeat!
Thinking of the recovery of Li Rui's state, the interested reporters' eyes lit up. Does this mean something? Li Rui's previous game was distracted by the transfer problem. Today's state is so good. Could it be that the result of the transfer has been decided?
Thinking of this, the reporters became excited. Of course they knew Li Rui's status in today's world football. Li Rui's transfer would definitely be explosive. Among other things, the transfer fee alone would definitely sweep everyone up like a tsunami. human cognition.

When the reporters were guessing, Li Rui, who had returned to the hotel with the team, found Mourinho. He wanted to ask Mourinho for leave, leave the team early, and go to Madrid.
