Chapter 384 384
In everyone's life, there is a day that is particularly important, and for Oriol, the day that changed his life was August 1994, 8.
He was at the best golf course in the Valencia region that day, and saw a teenager flipping over a tall barbed wire with moves he had only seen in movies.
Although he couldn't see his face clearly, his professionalism told him that he was definitely a malleable talent just by looking at his body proportions!
So he approached that boy without hesitation, and as a result, he saw a face that could be popular all over the world, and was told a number that was enough to make him feel heartbroken
14!
He is only 14 years old!He's still Argentinian!
But he didn't leave empty handed, he signed Veronica, the teenager's older sister.
This was the right choice for him as a model agent, even though she was a little too old for a model at that time.
But he paid off quickly!
He and his younger brother Anderson's career soared because of this pair of siblings!
Today, he is no longer a model agent. Although he is the agent of Raphael and Aimar, it is his younger brother Anderson who worries about their football career.
His current career focus has already extended to Hollywood following Veronica's footprint, and his new position for himself is not just the role of Veronica's agent.
He has gained so much from this pair of siblings, so much, of course he has to bear so much... so much...
But his endurance is also limited!
"Ever since I became your agent, you've created a few waves every year that the average player would never do in their lifetime!
First you provoked Maradona, then the guy who claimed to be your father, and then there was Egg Man, Wuzhishan, Banning Order, and Your Excellency Hughes!And what about you and Pubrido!
Now you suddenly tell me that you are going to buy Manchester United?
I don't know why you still need an agent. Are you going to tell me now that you are going to fire me and Anderson? "
Rafael was much calmer than his manager.
But he had never heard Oriol complain so much before, which also made him realize that his manager was really stimulated this time.
"I have no intention of firing you and Anderson. Buying Manchester United has nothing to do with my career. I am still a player and have no intention of transferring."
Raphael first gave Oriol a sense of security, even though he knew that this guy didn't really need it, he was now Ronnie's business partner.
However, he still emphasized with some dissatisfaction: "Also, you are not allowed to describe the relationship between me and Pabrido with nonsense. Do you have any dissatisfaction with this?"
Who is dissatisfied now?
Oriol said helplessly: "I am gay myself, I am not dissatisfied with your relationship, the premise is that you will not ruin your career! What do you want me to do now?
Help you deal with those reporters, or help you buy some public opinion time?
No matter what you are going to do now, we all need external public relations, we cannot give the right to speak to those media, you need to speak out! "
"Byron also suggested this way," Rafael quickly ordered, "so you need to arrange a TV interview for me, I don't like Italians, so it's better to be bbc, let them meet Milan today, I can do it for them Charter flights available."
"How could you need to spend money! They must be so happy now!"
"Help me write a professional outline of questions for them. I don't want to distract them from the interview, which they love to do."
Oriol exclaimed: "Wow, I didn't expect you to want to take the initiative in your hands! No problem, what are the aspects?"
"Of course it is related to Manchester United! For example, the reasons why we want to buy Manchester United, our future plans for Manchester United, our commitment to the fans, and our help to the local community..."
After Raphael listed a few, he frowned.
Because he found that in order to perfectly answer these questions, he needs certain data support. Without numbers, it sounds so vain and unconvincing.
Oriol quickly recorded it, and at the same time put forward his own suggestion: "They will definitely add several questions, such as whether you have the possibility of returning to Manchester United in the future. And Murdoch has just finished his failure, whether he will Affecting your confidence in acquisitions and the like..."
Raphael said: "Then you sort it out and send all these questions to my mailbox later."
"Okay! But there is still a problem"
"Argentina?"
This level of sensitivity made Oriol want to give him a blank stare.
If you are so self-aware, you should do less trouble!
So much so that he couldn't help complaining: "I think you and those extreme Argentine fans are a perfect match!
Every time there is a slight thaw between you, you have to come up with something to provoke them!Wave after wave! "
From his point of view, the relationship between Rafael and Argentine fans can definitely be described in the political vocabulary of "bilateral relationship".
He thought about it, and came up with a better way to complain: "It's also very similar to your relationship with Ronaldo, just like tango!"
This complaint is too precise, but Raphael can answer calmly: "Because I already know what the ending will be, so such a tortuous process is also a pleasure."
Doesn't this mean that you will conquer those fans sooner or later?
If someone else was so proud, Oriol would have entertained him long ago.
But if Raphael
When this guy is not bragging, he can contract the headlines of the whole of Europe.And the cowhide he blew out basically did it.
"Since you are used to the way you get along with Argentine fans, I don't think there is any need to spend more money on PR in Argentina. This is superfluous. You should also prefer to respond to them with trophies, right?"
"Obviously so."
Oriol also doesn't want to think about whether Argentina will lose in the 2002 World Cup. What's the use of thinking about what happened at that time?
As Raphael's agent, all he can do is remind him: "You would rather contact the BBC than accept interviews with the Italian media. This will make the entire Italian media industry unhappy."
Rafael asked: "So what? Will my interview with them change my situation in Italy?
What I care more about now is whether the British can hear my voice, and how the Manchester United fans feel.
So this is also your PR focus, don't let Manchester United's uneasy fan groups, especially the senior fan groups, bring trouble to our acquisition. "
"...Then you might as well talk to Ferguson." Oriol suggested: "You have to talk to him, of course, he may not want to get involved, just like when Murdoch wanted to buy Manchester United .”
He found that Raphael was silent.
This somewhat unusual silence made Oriol react quickly, and he asked with a smile: "Have you already contacted him, did he ask you to return to Manchester United to play?"
Raphael just reluctantly gave a "hmm" as a response.
This is obviously a broken talk!
Oriol laughed heartily, the conversation fell apart, and he wanted Ferguson to help him say good things, which was obviously impossible!
But he was still very measured, and before Raphael got angry, he quickly said: "I'll contact the BBC first, and then write out the outline. After I'm done, I will send it to your email first, and then I will call you back..."
"In this kind of matter, you are the expert, and I believe in your professional ability." Raphael said.
He just spoke the truth, what happened?
Because what responded to him was Oriol's exaggerated exclamation!
However, this exaggerated tone still made Raphael reflect on it rarely.
Should I have been nicer to him, as Pablo suggested?
After communicating with the agent, it was almost 5 o'clock in the morning.
Raphael no longer felt sleepy, but it was hard to say whether Byron slept or not. He tried to send Byron a text message.
Byron called him back almost immediately, showing by his actions that he was a workaholic who wanted to work without hair.
Raphael simply told him that he had asked Oriol to contact the BBC, and he would accept their exclusive interview, and listed the issues he had just discussed with Oriol.
"Your idea is correct! You want to tell Manchester United fans and the British people your ideas and plans before they are influenced by the media? Wait...do you have this thing?"
"What kind of idiot question are you talking about!" Rafael said speechlessly, "I may not know how to run a club, but at least I understand what the fans want!"
Byron immediately encouraged: "Tell me."
This obviously still can't trust him!
Raphael had to explain in detail: "Old Trafford is no longer worthy of the reputation of the Theater of Dreams. It should have been rebuilt long ago, but the current board of directors wants to get dividends, rather than caring about whether the fans will be there. It rained while watching the game.
Apart from the stadium, the local fans will always care about ticket prices, transfer fees, so I want you to look into it
If we commit to rebuilding Old Trafford and promise no season ticket price increases for the next few years, season ticket reductions for senior fans, further discounts for family ticket holders, guaranteed money to Ferguson every year Will they be satisfied with the transfer fee, say 2000 million pounds? "
"Fifty million pounds?"
Byron repeated this number, because Raphael only paid attention to football, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Isn't this just buying them at least one Nesta every year, or buying them a Shevchenko, and a quarter of them? Three of you? Of course, this price can only buy you one leg now."
Raphael snorted to express his dissatisfaction with his legs becoming a unit of measurement.
"Haha, don't be angry, I think your plan is already very good, and the stimulation of numbers is also very good.
But I need a little time to get someone to figure out how much it will cost to expand Old Trafford to make it worthy of the Theater of Dreams nickname, and how many jobs it will provide for the local community in the process, oh, it may take a while With the help of a good friend at Whitehall . . . "
Raphael just pretended not to hear that he was hooking up with senior civil servants of the British government.
Byron continued: "With this, I can help you research Manchester United's current season ticket and family ticket policy.
Expanding the stadium obviously costs money, even if you don't intend to make money on tickets, we have to make the books look good, and we have to convince the fans that we have a long-term plan, and not just take over and live off your investment, right The team's long-term revenue is not helping...
Of course, these numbers will also make your promise more convincing..."
This is what Raphael needed, so much so that he said with emotion: "It is definitely a loss for the British government to lose you."
Byron obviously benefited from such praise, and at the same time couldn't help but criticize "someone" for not cherishing it.
This endless boasting and complaining made Raphael deeply aware of the level of landmine he stepped on.
Why is he so stupid, stupid enough to get involved between the two of them?
After catching the gap, he immediately said goodbye to Byron.
But Byron didn't stop like this, but reminded: "I think you need to call someone. Anyway, he doesn't sleep very much, and he must be awake now. He should want to hear the news from you more, Not when you're flipping through the neatly ironed newspapers at the dinner table."
After a few seconds, Byron heard Raphael's "hmm".
This made Byron laugh, and when he hung up the phone, he came to the window of the study, opened the curtains, and saw a figure in the morning exercise.
What a happy guy.
