I Want to Be the King of Football

Camp Nou in Barcelona.

According to the feedback from various sponsors such as Nike and Audi, the analysis shows that the response of the entire Asian market to our Asia tour this summer is very flat, which is far from last year's Real Madrid Asia tour.

Sara Martin, a member of the presidium in charge of business development, reported the latest progress to the chairman, Laporta.

Asia trip, this is the top priority of Barcelona this summer.

Last year, Real Madrid’s Asian tour made a lot of money. Although Queiroz later criticized the team’s time-consuming and labor-intensive Asian tour, it was the main culprit that led to the collapse of Real Madrid’s season, but it is undeniable that in terms of business development, Real Madrid is a great success. .

Seeing that the mortal enemy is making money crazy, Barcelona naturally wants to share a piece of the pie.

Laporta is a lawyer, and he does not have the business thinking of Florentino, but it does not prevent him from learning Real Madrid's moves.

But from the actual situation, Barcelona is not Real Madrid after all.

According to our itinerary, we arrived in South Korea first, then went to Japan, then went to China to play four warm-up matches in three places in early August, which is only a little over a month away, but from the current ticket sales Prospects, it's bad, three games in Japan and South Korea, the market is down.

Sarah Martin is also very helpless.

Real Madrid has gathered too many superstars, which makes them extremely attractive in Asia, especially the addition of Beckham, which has greatly enhanced the popularity of Real Madrid, making Galaxy Battleship aroused in Asia. frenzy.

What does Barcelona have in comparison?

Last season, more than half of the time ranked in the middle, the only superstar in the team was Ronaldinho.

But as some media have said, it can be seen in the advertisement of Pepsi's Gladiator that Ronaldinho's rank is still a certain distance from Beckham and Su Dong.

In this case, how could Barcelona go to the Far East and cause a sensation?

Laporta is also well prepared for this situation, but the trip to the Far East has been planned for a long time, especially in relation to various sponsors, not to mention that thousands of tickets can be sold for a game, even if no tickets are sold. , Barcelona must be embarrassed in Asia.

How's it going with Valencia? Laporta asked with concern.

Su Dong is a Chinese player who has just won the Asian Footballer of the AFC. He has a very high popularity and influence in Asia. If he can be signed, it will certainly greatly enhance the influence of Barcelona in the Asian region.

More importantly, Su Dong also has huge tactical value.

Valencia does not reject selling Sudong to us, and even under the same conditions, they are willing to sell Sudong to us instead of Real Madrid, but the problem now is that Valencia's asking price is a bit high.

How much? Laporta asked concerned.

make a record!

Are they crazy? Laporta was a little impatient.

Barcelona just signed Deco, Giuly, Edmilson and other players, where does the money come from?

Even if you are good at installment, you must have a certain percentage of the down payment, right?

Real Madrid is willing to pay the money! Sarah Martin said helplessly.

Laporta had the urge to scold her mother.

Real Madrid is now rich and powerful, grabbing people with Barcelona, ​​it is not holding back.

No wonder, Su Dong is only nineteen years old, whoever grabs it will not have to worry about it in the next few years.

More importantly, with the current momentum of Su Dong, whoever grabs it and operates a little bit, Su Dong is likely to be the world footballer in 2004, and will be the youngest world footballer in football history.

What this means, everyone knows.

Laporta couldn't sit still, and turned to look at Vice-President Daal, Alfonso, how much can we raise?

Around 30 million euros. Goal replied.

It's not enough! Laporta was angrily. Selling several other players who are not needed, how much can you make?

Gao Er frowned, I'm afraid it's not that simple, it needs Roselle's support, and he...

Vice-President Roselle has always opposed the introduction of Sudong, just as Laporta opposed the dismissal of Rijkaard.

Laporta rubbed his hands and sat there hesitating for a long time, before finally making up his mind.

You call Roselle immediately and tell me that I agree to a contract extension with Ronaldinho, he will negotiate with Ronaldinho's agent, and I will fly to Brazil with him to sign.

Goal nodded, but still stared at Laporta, waiting for the next.

Then you tell him, we must sign Sudong, let him deal with the team as soon as possible, collect the transfer fee, and at the same time free up the salary increase for Ronaldinho and the joining of Sudong. .

Okay, I'll do it right away!

Laporta has been detaining Ronaldinho's contract renewal, just to game and exchange with Roselle.

Ronaldinho's current annual salary is 3.8 million euros after tax, which is already the first in the team, the same level as captain Puyol, and if he renews his contract, the annual salary will be increased to five after tax. Millions of euros, become the super first gear in the team.

After Ronaldinho is renewed, a new problem will arise, and that is Sudong.

Laporta promised to give Sudong the position of the main center, but who will he and Ronaldinho be the team's top card?

It doesn't matter if you just say it with your mouth, the key is to look at the action.

For example, the annual salary, after-tax annual salary of 5 million euros to Ronaldinho, can it be less for Su Dong?

If it is less, doesn't it mean that Sudong's status in the Barcelona team is not as good as Ronaldinho?

If it is flat, it will bring heavy salary pressure.

You know, both of them have an annual salary after tax!

Tell Phelan again to sort out the team's salary structure and see how much salary will be left if you send away a few high-paid players in the team. We must sign Su Dong before the trip to Asia anyway!

Laporta was finally ruthless.

Without Su Dong, Barcelona would be embarrassed to run to Asia like this, which would be a big shame.

When that time comes, what image will he, the chairman of the Asian tour, look like in the eyes of members and fans?

Ferran Soriano, who is relatively neutral and vice-chairman in charge of the club's finances, believes he can handle this problem well.

Thinking of this, Laporta looked at Goal again, Call Mendes again and say I'll ask him to meet!

Sarah, you should communicate with the sponsors as soon as possible, especially pay close attention to Su Dong's personal sponsors and prepare a detailed plan, including the signing of Su Dong's negotiation, and the next trip to Asia, be sure to hurry!

There are conflicts between Su Dong and many of Barcelona's sponsors, such as car sponsors. Su Dong represents BMW, but Barcelona's sponsor is Audi. This must be a problem. How to coordinate?

Back then, in order to sign Beckham, Real Madrid took a long time to get these sponsors.

Now, there is really not much time left for Barcelona.

Do it now! Be quick!

…………

…………

As soon as Mendes received the call, Su Dong also got the news.

For some time now, the media has been spreading the news every day, but Su Dong could only wait for the news and spend his energy on training.

For the latest information sent by Mendes, Su Dong was not very relieved.

He also has his own concerns.

When you meet, you tell Laporta that I still have concerns. If possible, I would like to make a phone call with Rijkaard and Ronaldinho first. They all know my mobile number.

Su Dong wanted to hear Rijkaard personally confirm some things, and also wanted to communicate with Ronaldinho.

The fuckin' stuff in front office, it's best not to affect the locker room and the game.

Of course, the joining of Su Dong itself is a weakening of Ronaldinho's influence. Su Dong mainly wants to hear the thoughts of the Brazilians, which is also to get along better in the future.

Mendes said with a smile that Su Dong’s concerns were right, but Laporta was well prepared.

Rossel has had a dinner table meeting with Ronaldinho's agent brother, and the two sides have reached a consensus on the renewal of the contract. Laporta and Roselle will leave for Brazil in these two days to meet with him. Ronaldinho has officially signed a contract extension.

Before going to Brazil, I will meet with Laporta. If it goes well, he hopes to fly directly from Brazil to China to meet you, and some questions will be discussed in person.

What about Valencia? Su Dong asked with concern.

Roig and Subirac have both called me and they agreed that we should contact Barcelona, ​​and according to the information I have received, the transfer fee is likely to exceed Zidane.

Speaking of this, Mendes was obviously a little excited.

Su Dong's transfer fee exceeds Zidane's, so his agent's rake will also follow.

More importantly, it is a great thing for him to have a player like Su Dong under his command.

For Su Dong, he is not resistant to this. Anyway, he does not need to pay for it. It is just that the excessive transfer fee will bring some pressure, but he believes that he can overcome it.

If it really exceeds Zidane, according to the contract, he can get 20% of the share, that is, more than 10 million euros, which is converted into over 100 million yuan, which is absolutely unbelievable.

Sometimes Su Dong even thinks that Valencia may just want to pass on Su Dong's share to the new club, so they stick to the transfer fee.

Of course, the most important thing is that Real Madrid and Barcelona are willing to pay.

Compared to the situation of moving to Real Madrid, moving to Barcelona is really a good choice.

As long as he doesn't get involved in the disputes of the management, as long as he doesn't get involved in things outside the stadium, Su Dong believes he can play in Barcelona.

After all, he knew in his heart that he and Barcelona's style were quite matched.

Especially with the ability of Barcelona midfielders to create opportunities, Su Dong believes that he will have more opportunities in Barcelona than in Valencia, and there will be no fewer goals.

As for Ronaldinho, Su Dong has a good personal relationship with him, and I believe it will not be a problem to get along.

Oh, by the way, Jorge, make one more request when you talk to Laporta.

you say.

They had a guy named Leo Messi in the youth team and he was promoted to the first team.

In Valencia, there is a David Silva who can touch his head. When he comes to Barcelona, ​​he doesn't find one, and he always feels uncomfortable.

Exactly, Messi and David Silva are the same size, and they should feel good.
