Green Dragon

Chapter 347 A higher level of difficulty?

"It was supposed to be a great Champions League semi-final, but instead I watched 90 minutes of drama."

In the post-match press conference, Real Madrid coach Mourinho only left this paragraph:

"According to my personal statistics, Bayern's frontcourt players performed at least three flops in the penalty area. Fortunately, the referee is very experienced and was not easily fooled. In addition, I have also seen several good scenes of teammates infighting... ..."

The Portuguese shrugged his shoulders:

"I admit that they have successfully become the protagonists on the stage, just like a few clowns, with bright red ketchup on their faces... Maybe they also know that even in their own home court, they can only be won in this way." Beat Real Madrid."

"I have a lot of respect for Mr. Heynckes, he has one Champions League trophy, and I... have two."

The madman made no concessions to the old man:
"This is our first defeat in the Champions League this season. I have learned some lessons. Back at the Bernabeu, we will still try our best to win. In football, 5-1 is not the end of the world, we only need to score four. For Real Madrid, four goals is not difficult."

"Bayern's performance? If they didn't have so much performance, maybe I would give them a compliment, but now... you know what I mean."

"Dragon? He's a very good player, I mean top in the world, the Ballon d'Or and UEFA best player honors have shown that."

At the end, Mourinho also focused on the Bayern No. [-] who scored twice:
"In fact, last summer, we had the opportunity to make an offer to Ajax, but we didn't have a shortage of midfielders at the time, so we put it on hold. I mean... if a player really has Top quality, Real Madrid will never give up because of price issues. However, no one can predict the transfer, let's talk about it after the end of the season."

Mourinho, forever the master of psychological warfare, showed no signs of frustration on his face at the press conference and managed to keep the reporters' attention on the last few words.

Real Madrid want to introduce the new Mr. Golden Ball Long Shute?
This is not impossible, because two seasons ago, Long Shute, who was still unknown at the time, had played against Real Madrid many times. Whether it was Mourinho or the top management of Real Madrid, they all knew the existence of this guy and had also proposed Quotation, but due to some other reasons, this quotation failed to enter the substantive stage.

Bayern won't let go?

Long Shute is neither Bayern's local youth training nor has joined the team for a very short time. As long as they are paid enough, Bayern, who has always been at ease in the Bundesliga, will definitely let go.

Of course, even if Bayern insists, as long as the player himself agrees, Rummenigge and Hoeness will not tear themselves apart with Real Madrid, will they? -
Mourinho's tactics really played a role, at least those reporters no longer stare at Real Madrid's tactics in the second round, but swarmed their guns at Heynckes.

"You reporters, don't listen to the wind and the rain. It's not yet the transfer period, and Long Shute is still a Bayern player. If you want to make big news...well, you might as well ask him himself."

Eunuch Hai couldn't stand it anymore, so he pushed Long Shute directly in front of him and blocked the bullet for himself.

Long Shute coughed and smiled at the reporters in the audience:
"Perhaps, I should thank Coach Mourinho, because his words today will undoubtedly remind the Bayern club that it is time to sit down with me and talk about the new contract."

Perhaps Robben and Ribery should also thank Mourinho.

Thanks to the magic bird, the reporters completely forgot to ask about the farce of the free kick...
-
Although Long Shute felt that there was no major problem, Emma, ​​who learned of his accident, called him specifically and asked him to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination to prevent hidden residual diseases such as concussion.

Heynckes also gave him a special day off, and the Bayern club also arranged special staff to accompany him throughout the journey, and also paid for him...

Fortunately, there was no problem with the test results issued by the hospital, and Long Shute and the club were relieved.

Long Shute, who walked out of the hospital, did not return to his residence. He directed Crom to drive the car directly to the Bayern club's office building.

In a small meeting room, club chairman Rummenigge, vice chairman and financial director Hopfner, and sports director Nellinger have been waiting for him for a long time.

Of course, the executives of these clubs will not just sit there and stare blankly. They are negotiating the terms of the contract with agent Tony Moretti, and the arrival of Long Shute is just the final confirmation of the result.

As for the contracts of ordinary players, Neringer, as the sports director, can finalize it alone, and he doesn't even need to come forward, but now they need to negotiate with Mr. Golden Globe, the most popular football player today. Even the club chairman Rummenigge has to come to the scene in person to show his importance to the players.

"Glad to hear of all your health, dear dragon."

Rummenigge and Longshut shook hands cordially, and then sat sideways on the sofa:

"Although you have joined Bayern for less than a season, I think it is necessary to reconsider some of the terms of the contract. What do you think?"

Long Shu nodded: "I have no reason to refuse, Mr. Chairman."

The so-called "partial clause" is nothing more than Bayern felt that the previous salary was a little sorry for Long Shute's performance, so they took the initiative to make up for it.

This can't blame them for being too realistic, this is the real world.

After all, Long Shute transferred from the second- and third-tier leagues, and he has not proved himself in the mainstream leagues. No one knows whether he can adapt to the rhythm of the Bundesliga. If he rashly offers him a salary that is too high, it will undoubtedly be a big problem. Shaking the club's overall salary structure is also likely to cause unnecessary trouble.

But now this problem does not exist. He has proved that he is perfectly integrated into Bayern, and has even become a core player of Bayern. He has led the team to beat strong enemies many times, so it is time to talk about the conditions.

"There is no doubt that we will only give you the team's maximum salary, and it is the highest one. This can also be written into the terms of the contract."

The meritorious veteran Hopfner, who has played for Bayern for 31 years and is about to turn 60, introduced to Long Shute with a smile:

"The annual salary before tax is 1200 million euros, after tax is about 750 million euros, and the bonuses have almost doubled. The portrait rights and jersey share are still owned by you, and the contract date is still four years. In addition, we A signing fee of 500 million is also set. I think... you should be able to feel the sincerity of the club."

At the same time as his introduction, Moretti handed over a note he had just handwritten, which stated the benefits that Longchute could get from the club next season.

If he can maintain his efficiency this year, this figure will undoubtedly exceed 1500 million euros, which does not include the additional bonuses issued by the club after he may win the Ballon d'Or again.

"I do feel the sincerity, Tony, any more questions?"

Long Shute put down the note and asked the manager with a smile—he spoke Chinese.

Now he doesn't care much about the club's salary, because he has already made a lot of money in advertising endorsements, and the salary increase is just to prove his core position in the club.

Moretti looked at several Bayern club leaders in the field, and answered very directly:
"They want to set some conditions on your transfer, probably because they are worried that you will go to Real Madrid or Barcelona..."

Because they were in Chinese, Moretti didn't hide anything.

"Is it setting liquidated damages?"

Long Shute asked again:
"Could it be that Bayern will mark me with a liquidated damages of several hundred million euros?"

"No," Moretti shook his head. "Bayern generally don't set liquidated damages for their players. This is their tradition. What they mean is to add a restriction to the contract..."

Long Shute probably understood what the other party meant, so he smiled and turned to Rummenigge:
"Mr. Chairman, I can understand your concerns, so I have a proposal."

Rummenigge looked at him slightly surprised.

Long Shute looked serious:
"We can put a note in the contract: the player cannot be transferred to Real Madrid or Barcelona, ​​or you can add a few names."

"Then... let's add Manchester United."

Rummenigge was not polite, he did have some psychological shadows about Ferguson's Red Devils.

Long Shute smiled and shrugged:

"Yes, but in contrast, if one day I want to go to other places to meet new challenges, I hope that Mr. Chairman will not set too high a threshold on the transfer fee."

Rummenigge also laughed:
"We are Bayern, even if you want to leave, we will send you off in the warmest way."
-
"Boss, to be honest, I don't understand your thoughts at all."

On the way to complete the contract renewal and return to the residence, Moretti finally couldn't help asking:
"Why did you agree to their conditions so easily? We can clearly speak first..."

Before he finished his question, Long Shute, who was sitting in the back row, answered him:
"I want a challenge, Tony."

Moretti was obviously taken aback, he still didn't understand what his employer meant.

Chrome, who was driving, whistled:
"Tony, you're still too young!"

Moretti glared at him:
"Drive your car!"

Long Shute opened the car window, and explained unhurriedly:
"Although Bayern's performance last season was disappointing, it is undeniable that they are already one of the top giants in Europe. There is not much difference between joining Bayern and joining Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United. Perhaps the other three A team can treat the salary a little better, but that's not what I'm after."

The wind outside the car was blowing on his face, and his voice seemed to become a little ethereal:
"At Bayern, the wind is too smooth. Although the team has not fully reached its peak this season, there are not many challenges in the league. Life without challenges...is a bit boring.

I will definitely leave Bayern in the future, otherwise I am worried that my will will be worn away by this kind of boredom.At that time, I would never choose Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​which are on the same level as Bayern. "

"In terms of game language, playing in giants like Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​and Bayern can only be regarded as entry-level difficulty, and our boss Long wants to challenge a higher level of difficulty, right?"

Crome was whistling as he drove.

Moretti sat on the co-pilot in a daze, a little speechless.

The speed of the car increased, and the wind outside the window became more violent. Long Shute could only squint his eyes slightly to see the scenery on the roadside clearly.

Today's wind is very noisy!
