Chapter 266 Talks with Mendes on
Just as Alfaim was waiting for Zhang Yang's reply, Mendes also came to Shanghai. He traveled a long distance from Switzerland to Shanghai. The journey was really tiring, but the anxious Mendes could not feel tired. Now he just wants to see Zhang Yang quickly and understand everything.
When Mendes got off the plane, he saw Steve, a black bodyguard waiting for him outside the airport. On the way back with Steve, he looked at the dim lights outside the window. The 'super agent' was a little impatient. Although Steve was just a bodyguard and didn't know the situation, from the mouth of the black bodyguard, Mende Si confirmed that Zhang Yang seemed to have a good talk with the President of the Manchester City Club.
Then, Mendes hurried to the hotel where Zhang Yang stayed. Ask Steve to park in the parking lot, and he goes through the lobby to Zhang Yang's room under the leadership of another black bodyguard Johnny, who has been waiting for a long time.
Room -903, this is the room number where Zhang Yang stayed in this hotel.
Mendes knew that he was impatient now. When he took the elevator and walked in the corridor, he had calmed down. By the time he saw Zhang Yang, Mendes had slowly controlled his emotions.
Mendes was carrying two bottles of red wine in his hand, which he bought at the duty-free shop when he was connecting in Dubai.
"Zhang, this is for your family. I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts. I know that your eldest brother likes to have a son. Please bring it to him for me.
Zhang Yang was wearing a sportswear with the team logo of Marseille, which was his training uniform when he was in Marseille.
After taking these two bottles of red wine from Mendes's hand, Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Thank you. I'll thank you on behalf of my eldest brother first. It's been a hard journey. Do you want to take a night off first? Let's talk about something tomorrow.
Mendes declined, and he smiled bitterly, "Let's start now. If I can't figure out some things, I think I may have insomnia. Besides, I'm not sleepy now, and the jet lag hasn't been reversed yet."
Zhang Yang nodded. He pressed the button of the electric curtain and raised the curtain. Through the floor-to-ceiling window, he looked out of the window. The lights in Pudong were brilliant, the Huangpu River was faintly visible, and the sparks on the river were shining and beautiful. Looking at the night scene in the distance, almost two minutes later, Zhang Yang turned around. He said slowly, "Hulge, it's been a hard journey. I called you to tell you that I think I may be ready to transfer."
Mendes is not only Zhang Yang's agent, but also a friend relationship between the two. Therefore, he still knows Zhang Yang very well. Mendes once asked Zhang Yang if he would consider transferring to Milan. However, Zhang Yang's attitude has always been very clear, and he has not considered leaving for the time being. Milan, and this time, although there are teams such as Real Madrid and Chelsea, Manchester United and Bayern Munich chasing Zhang Yang, according to Mendes's understanding, Zhang Yang still does not intend to change his mind. As Zhang Yang said, everything in Milan is OK. He still has a pursuit in Milan, and the champion has to work hard. He will not consider leaving here until he helps Milan win the Champions League and achieves his great achievements in this great club.
Therefore, Mendes was stunned when he heard Zhang Yang's words this time. He really didn't expect that Zhang Yang would say that he was considering transferring to Milan, and he didn't expect that Zhang Yang would say it so directly, which surprised him.
Immediately, Mendes thought that Zhang Yang had been communicating and contacting with Alfaim, the president of the Manchester City Club, these days. In addition, when Zhang Yang talked to him before, he said that he was a little annoyed with the invitation from Manchester City. In addition, the black bodyguard Steve said that Zhang Yang and Alfaim talked happily. Now, Zhang Yang suddenly told him that he was going to transfer, which immediately made Mr. 'super agent' feel bad.
Zhang Yang is willing to transfer. In essence, Mendes is naturally very happy. Once Zhang Yang's players transfer, the fee will be sky-high, and even create a new record for the transfer fee of football players, and his commission as an agent will be a huge number. He can make a lot of money directly. It can be said that the income brought to him by Zhang Yang's transfer will even be the income brought to him by the transfer of three or five first-class players.
To put it in an extreme way, he can't wait to make a lot of money by transferring all season. However, after all, this is only an extreme situation. From the perspective of maintaining the competitive state of publicity, it is naturally best for Zhang Yang to stay in a club for a period of time, and his interests are linked to Zhang Yang. Only when Zhang Yang's state can be maintained can he have more income. Therefore, Mendes is also more cautious about Zhang Yang's transfer. In addition, Zhang Yang is quite an independent person. Although he has the right to make suggestions, Zhang Yang still makes his own decisions. Therefore, he is not prepared for Zhang Yang's departure from Milan in this transfer.
It suppresses the inner doubts. Mendes said, "This is so surprising to me. I think we have something to talk about tonight. I have to know more."
"Yes, we have talked about it." Zhang Yang made a cup of tea for himself and Mendes respectively, then sat down and said, "Of course, my decision is not the final decision, but my tendency now. After all, I have to discuss such a big thing with you before I can make a final decision."
This reassures Mendes a little, as long as the final decision has not been made. After all, if the player makes up his mind, it is not good for him to force the player to make a change. However, Mendes, who is familiar with Zhang Yang's personality, is only a little relieved, because he knows that Zhang Yang is a very independent person. Since Zhang Yang has a certain tendency, it actually shows that Zhang Yang already has an independent opinion in his heart. If you don't agree with this matter after you understand the situation, it's not easy for Zhang Yang to change his decision.
Mendes nodded, took a sip of tea and said, "I understand, well, tell me about the situation these days. I don't know anything about it now."
Zhang Yang began to tell Mendes about his contacts and talks with Alfaim these days. He told the whole process to Mendes as if he were telling a story.
The whole process is like a description of facts. Zhang Yang did not mix his personal tendencies, so that it would not affect and confuse Mendes.
He told the grand blueprint for the future of the Manchester City club that the president of Manchester City Club described to him, the words of Alfaim's lobbying to him, and the positioning of Manchester City to him. They even planned to pay 100 million pounds of transfer fees for him.
Mendes listened to Zhang Yang tell all this. The more he listened, the more shocked he was. Mendes had a certain degree of understanding of Manchester City and their Arab father during this period. As a 'super agent', of course, he should know something about the new upstart in the football circle. What's more, this club is Chasing his players, although Mendes absolutely does not think that Manchester City is qualified to have a star like Zhang Yang.
However, his understanding of Manchester City is not enough to make him have a in-depth analysis of the club's ambitions and plans. Now, after listening to Zhang Yang's words, he really feels the ambition and courage of this Premier League team with a new Arab father for the first time.
Manchester City intends to cultivate Zhang Yang as the flag and core of the team. For this, it does not surprise Mendes too much. Such a club that does not have much fame and historical background, with a star of such a level as Zhang Yang will naturally treat it as a treasure and characterize Zhang Yang as the flag and core of the team. This is also Not surprising.
As for what Manchester City said, the position of publicity is even above the head coach of Manchester City, which is slightly moving Mendes. After all, it is not easy for a club to make such a promise, especially for the Premier League, the power of the head coach of the Premier League team is the largest among the five major leagues.
However, what really shocked Mendes was what Zhang Yang said that Manchester City even prepared 100 million pounds of transfer funds to force AC Milan to sell Zhang Yang!
The transfer fee of 100 million pounds!
What is this concept?!
This can even buy two peak Zidane, three peak Beckhams, and two half peak Ronaldo.
Although Real Madrid has invested a lot of money on Zidane, Ronaldo and Figo, 100 million pounds! Football Capital has never been so crazy!
Even the well-informed Mendes was really shocked.
Zhang Yang looked at Mendes with a smile while drinking tea. He was very proud of Mendes' shock, because he was also extremely shocked when he heard this number. After the shock, when Zhang Yang was alone, he was even ashamed of his 'locality'. This man had already From the initial shock, thinking of the light expression of the Chairman of the Manchester City Club at that time, Zhang Yang seemed to really think that 100 million pounds was nothing. He should be worth the price. He really thinks so.
Mendes was shocked and said, "They did say that if possible, they really prepared 100 million pounds to get you?" Although Mendes also knows that Alfaim will not lie about such things, and there is no need for Arabs to brag, because according to what Mendes knows, the Manchester City Club does have this financial resources now, 100 million pounds. For the Arab father of the Manchester City Club, the important thing is not the money itself. It's the courage of the people who have this money, because the money is really nothing to them. What matters is whether you have the courage to spend 100 million pounds directly.
