Chapter 334 Manchester United's Absolutely Not For Sale
Chapter 333 Manchester United's Absolutely Not For Sale

(Beforehand, this article is by no means water, and I did not find the following clauses about liquidated damages from Baidu. They are all clauses I imagined. Just take a look, it is not real. The plot needs this chapter.)
Although he is not the owner of Manchester United, Ferguson used his hard work of serving Manchester United for 27 years, the countless championships he brought to Manchester United, and his iron-blooded and tough character in exchange for his absolute authority in Manchester United.

If you ask Manchester United fans, whose Manchester United is Manchester United, it is estimated that most people will say that it is Ferguson's Manchester United, and few people will foolishly say that it is the Manchester United of the Glazer family.

But sadly the silly answer is the correct answer!

If the members of the Glazer family and the Spanish construction businessman really reach an agreement on Jiong Yi's issue in private, then Ferguson has nothing to do, and there is really nothing to do.Because although the players call him "The Boss," the "Boss" is not the Boss.

Can't wait any longer, Ferguson needs to make a decision immediately, he took out his phone and called Lin Yi's agent, Ding Weijie.After the call was connected, Ferguson couldn't wait to speak.

"Dear Ding, can you make it to London by this evening? I just happen to have a fantastic bottle of Hennessy on hand, I thought you'd be interested!"

"Haha, sir, to be honest, I've been waiting for this call for a week, I didn't expect you to be so calm!"

……

People on Fleet Street are also very curious why Ferguson didn't immediately initiate the renewal of the new contract with Lin Yi when he was faced with Real Madrid's poaching action.You must know that whether it is salary or other things, Ji Dong's contract is not without space.But Ferguson didn't negotiate right away, a point that puzzled even the staunchest United fans.

Not understanding means not understanding the dilemma Ferguson is facing.Ferguson doesn't want to renew his contract?
Think, he wanted to do that from the beginning.But Ferguson didn't dare. He was not afraid that the contract negotiations would fuel Ji Dong's ambitions.What he was afraid of was that he would not be able to achieve the goal of contract renewal.

The purpose of contract renewal negotiations is to hope that Lin Yi can stay at Manchester United. What is the best way?Increase liquidated damages, which is currently the only way to negotiate a renewal.

According to Ferguson's prediction, the liquidated damages this time cannot be increased too much, and Lin Yi's shrewd manager Ding Weijie will not agree to an outrageous liquidated damages.

Ding Weijie definitely hopes that Lin Yi's liquidated damages can reflect his value, but he doesn't want it to be so outrageous that it will put an inescapable shackle on Lin Yi.Moreover, it is impossible for Ding Weijie to betray Lin Yi and sign any messy contract for money. As far as Ferguson knows, Ding Weijie is not short of money, and he also has a very good company with Lin Yi.

So how to talk about the liquidated damages, it is too high to talk about, and Ferguson is also afraid that the increase in the liquidated damages will directly stimulate the greedy gene of the Glazer family.

The Glazer family is Jewish, and they will not foolishly ask Ji Dong to increase the value before buying. In the Jewish business concept, when the value of a commodity is much higher than its value, it is not necessary to wait for the highest expectation to sell it, because the highest expectation is often accompanied by the highest risk.Because of historical reasons, Jews don't like taking risks, so Ferguson couldn't dispel the desire of the Glazer family by saying that Ji Dong would be more valuable in the future.

Neither this nor that.The Spaniard was coming soon, Ferguson was forced to act, he had to act.

Ferguson's plan is to give Lin Yi a salary increase, adding to Rooney's after-tax Premier League maximum salary of 30 pounds, and promises to continue to increase in the future.Ferguson wants to use money and affection to make Ji Dong take the initiative to stay!

As long as Ji Dong is unwilling to leave, the possibility of the liquidated damages clause being activated is less likely.Why is it half? That is because the liquidated damages we usually talk about are only liquidated damages for players in a narrow sense. In fact, liquidated damages also include liquidated damages for clubs.

Club liquidated damages refer to the liquidated damages incurred by the club forcibly selling players after the player and the club have not reached an agreement on transfer matters.

This is what Ferguson is most afraid of. If Lin Yi is directly forcibly sold by the club's executives because of the high transfer fee, the club only needs to pay unequal liquidated damages.

What is unequal liquidated damages?

Taking Ji Dong as an example, if Lin Yi wants to force a transfer, he needs to pay 1.5 million pounds in liquidated damages, but if the club wants to sell Lin Yi forcibly for a huge transfer fee, they only need to pay 128% of Ji Dong's annual salary as liquidated damages.

This is unequal liquidated damages!This kind of labor contract is a common phenomenon in Europe, which pays attention to human rights and the rule of law. This has to be said to be a huge irony.

This unequal liquidated damages was originally beneficial to the club, but now Ferguson doesn't see it that way. He thinks this is a huge loophole. If he meets a greedy boss and has the best players in his hands, it will be a nightmare for all coaches.

It just so happens that Manchester United fits all the elements of this nightmare.

There have been countless contract negotiations in Ferguson's coaching career, but his original intention was always to take Manchester United's interests as the first starting point.

But this time, Ferguson will try his best to make the liquidated damages clause in Lin Yi's contract as balanced as possible, and he will break the unequal situation.Ferguson believes that this is definitely for the good of Manchester United, because it is the greatest benefit of Manchester United that Lin Yi can stay.

……

Ding Weijie is now a celebrity, a celebrity throughout Europe, because he has Lin Yi, a quasi-king-level player, and he will be warmly received in any city where a wealthy team is located.

His efficiency is very good, Ferguson called in the morning, he actually arrived in London in the afternoon.

Why London, not Manchester.Ji Dong who came with Ferguson was also very puzzled, but when he came to the negotiation site, he understood Ferguson's intention.

For this meeting with Ding Weijie, Ferguson chose a Chinese restaurant in London.This Chinese restaurant has a special meaning to Lin Yi.

This is the Chinese restaurant where Ferguson finally decided to sign Ji Dong after he was rejected by Liverpool and Arsenal. That meal was one of Ji Dong's most memorable meals.

Ferguson hopes to use these details to arouse Ji Dong's inner feelings. Although this is a bit too obvious and hypocritical, Ferguson is really pushed, he really loves Manchester United.

Maybe it was because of Ji Dong's temperament, Ji Dong was very moved, he has always been a grateful person.He believed that without Ferguson, he would set foot on European soil sooner or later. However, he will never forget the trust and support Ferguson gave him at the beginning. He is really grateful to Manchester United and Ferguson from the bottom of his heart.

The meal time was pleasant, and no one mentioned the contract. Ferguson really brought a bottle of good wine to share with Ding Weijie, while Lin Yi drank fruit juice as usual.

When Ji Dong felt that his food was about the same, he got up and said to Ferguson:

"Sir, thank you for the dinner. Thank you also for bringing me to Manchester United and allowing me to grow to where I am now.

I know what you mean, to be honest, I am very satisfied with Manchester United, you know, I have many friends here, and many fans who love me here, all of which make me feel happy and feel like home.

Here, I assure you that unless Manchester United does not want me, or I feel that Manchester United lacks the desire to compete in all aspects of investment, otherwise I will never take the initiative to leave Manchester United.

That's all I have to say.I'm sorry Sir, it may be that I have practiced too much recently, and I am a little tired. If you don't mind, I will go back to the hotel to rest early.

For the rest, you can talk to my agent. Like you, he is also my trustworthy person. He is like my elder brother. He can represent my personal and complete wishes without my presence. "

When Lin Yi said this, Ferguson felt very relieved. Sure enough, Chinese people still have a lot of feelings.He understood that Ji Dong said he would not leave voluntarily, so he believed that his goal had been achieved.

"Brother Jie, I am really happy at Manchester United. And whether it is from the purpose of pioneering or my personal wishes, I think Manchester United is the most suitable for me at present, so you understand."

Lin Yi confessed to Ding Weijie again, and then he apologized and left the private room.

The rest is to talk about money. Ji Dong felt that it was difficult to speak up, so he had full authority to hire his own manager. This is the way of a smart person, and of course it can be understood as cunning.

Lin Yi returned to the hotel, and Ferguson and Ding Weijie also returned to the hotel after drinking the bottle of wine. They started negotiating a new contract in Ferguson's room.

During the negotiation process, Ding Weijie was shocked by Ferguson's rights, because Ferguson could change the liquidated damages like that, and he was entitled to carry the official seal of Manchester United Club with him. This right even overrides the general manager.

The contract was negotiated very quickly, and both parties came here with sincerity, as long as the number of a few champions is negotiated, it will be OK.In the end, Lin Yi's new contract with Manchester United was extended to 2018, and Lin Yi's weekly salary was increased to 30 pounds after tax, which is the first weekly salary tied for the Premier League.Moreover, various appearance fees have risen to varying degrees.And Lin Yi still has a signing fee of 100 million pounds for the new contract.

In addition, Lin Yi’s liquidated damages were increased to 2 million pounds, while the club’s liquidated damages were increased to 1 million pounds, which made Ding Weijie overjoyed. This means that even if Lin Yi transfers, Manchester United will give Lin Yi the right to choose his next home, otherwise Manchester United will pay Lin Yi 1 million pounds.

This is a new contract that both parties are satisfied with, so before Real Madrid arrived in Manchester the next day, Manchester United announced on the official website that Lin Yi had just completed the negotiation of the new contract and that he would continue to stay at Manchester United.And it also used exaggerated bold and red fonts to express "Jin Yi is absolutely not for sale at Manchester United!"

This made countless Manchester United fans cry out excitedly. Facing the temptation of Real Madrid, Lin Yi resolutely chose to renew his contract. This is the expression of true love for Manchester United.Although it is said that many people's non-sale items ended up going to Real Madrid, the disclosure of Lin Yi's liquidated damages clause on the official website caused an uproar in the world.Manchester United fans were overjoyed, now Lin Yi should be safe.

Florentino and his party on the plane didn't know about it yet. How would Florentino and Mourinho respond to the news that hadn't arrived yet?
　Thank you for your votes. This month is over. I wish everyone a happy Children's Day one day in advance. No matter how old you are, I hope you will always have an immortal heart.
