Football Feast, Starting From the Acquisition of European Clubs: Chapter 345 It\'s time for acting

   Chapter 345 It's time for acting skills

   Seeing that he woke Caroline, Kaka turned around and smiled apologetically.

   "That's right, I didn't know what to choose for a while, and it woke you up. I'm sorry, dear."

   "It doesn't matter. But, dear, what are you thinking in your own heart?"

   Seeing that neither of them wanted to continue sleeping, Caroline simply sat up and turned on the bedside lamp, and then got into Kaka's arms again.

"My thoughts? Honey, you know, I'm not very social, so I don't want to transfer often. Because then I have to constantly adapt to new situations, which is a huge annoyance for me. ."

   "Then don't transfer, the most important thing is to be happy."

  Caroline was thinking about it.

   Her mother is the general agent of the famous luxury brand Dior in Brazil. Caroline, who has never been short of money since she was a child, does not have much feeling about the annual salary of 15 million euros offered by Manchester City.

   What's more, since she moved to London with Kaka, the Crystal Palace Club wives group organized by Cheryl often held various events together, which made Caroline quickly integrate into her new life in London.

   In this Crystal Palace wives, most of the members are either stars or supermodels, and they have an endless common language with Caroline, who has grown up in the fashion circle since childhood.

   Even, they are ready to jointly set up a clothing design company. Even the brand name has been thought out, it is called "Crystal".

   It is conceivable that Caroline, who is studying fashion design and is preparing to show her talents, how could she be willing to let Kaka leave Crystal Palace at this time and move to the industrial city of Manchester, which has no fashion atmosphere?

   I have to say that the foreshadowing that Chen Ran laid down at the beginning has finally come to fruition.

   With the support of his wife Caroline, Kaka finally feels better.

   "But what my father said is not unreasonable. A player's career is very short. I should accumulate more wealth for my children."

   "It's not just money, I'll go back to Cheryl and ask her to talk to Chen and give you a raise."

   Caroline curled her lips in disdain. She disliked Kaka's father Bosco's behavior with only money in his eyes, but it was just because Kaka was inconvenient for her to say.

   "Isn't this bad? I don't want it anymore. It would be embarrassing if I was rejected. How can I get along with Chen in the future?"

   For Chen Ran, a friend who has no bossiness, Kaka still cherishes it very much. He doesn't want these messy things to destroy the relationship between the two.

   "It's okay, I didn't ask you to tell me. I'm here to find Cheryl and tell you the news that Manchester City has made an offer for you. I believe Chen will know what to do."

  Caroline is full of confidence. In terms of communication skills, she has been fascinated by the fashion circle since she was a child, and ten Kaka can't compare.

   "Well then, thank you, dear."

   "Why? I solved such a big problem for you, are you just talking about it?"

   "Oh dear, why don't I send you another child!"

"Hate."

   also used his father as an agent. Messi's father Jorge Messi also received news from the trustee of Manchester City Club.

  Manchester City is in a good bowl, and also offered Messi an annual salary of 15 million euros.

   And Messi's current annual salary at Crystal Palace is the same as Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, which is only 5 million euros.

   At this moment, Jorge Messi was also tempted.

   "Leo, come out. The Manchester City club asked someone to tell me that as long as you are willing to join Manchester City, you can get an annual salary of 15 million euros, and the bonus is not included."

   Messi, who had just established a relationship with his childhood sweetheart girlfriend, Antonella Rocuso, reluctantly hung up on the overseas phone call with his girlfriend and sat in front of his father.

   Hearing the figure of 15 million euros, Messi was slightly taken aback.

   He is now thinking about going back to Argentina for a vacation with his girlfriend, but he doesn't care about the Manchester City club that has been making a lot of noise recently.

   "Dad, what do you mean by 15 million euros? Is it an offer from Manchester City?"

   and Kaka were born in a wealthy family and had no worries about food and clothing since childhood.

   In order to treat Messi's dwarfism, their family is under enormous financial pressure.

   It wasn't until Messi made his mark at Barcelona that the situation was reversed.

   Therefore, compared to Kaka, Messi is also more sensitive to the number of money.

   "Yes, it seems that this Manchester City club is very sincere. Leo, I plan to contact them, what do you think?"

  Although Messi is not yet 21 years old, Jorge Messi still respects his son's opinions.

   "Eh, Dad, I just moved to Crystal Palace last year. Whether it's the boss, the coach, or my teammates, they are all good to me. Now I have to transfer again after only one year. Isn't that a bad idea?"

  Although he is very excited about the annual salary of 15 million euros, Messi has not been completely blinded by money.

   "It's just a normal transfer. It's not that Crystal Palace can't get the transfer fee. Isn't that what professional football is like?"

   "What's more, Manchester City has already offered you a transfer fee of 80 million euros to Crystal Palace Club. If you bargain, maybe Crystal Palace Club can get 100 million euros."

   "In just one year, you can bring so much transfer fee to Crystal Palace Club, which is worthy of them."

   Like Kaka's father Bosco, Jorge Messi is obviously unable to resist the temptation of an annual salary of 15 million euros.

   After a moment of silence, Messi still shook his head.

   "Dad, after all, Manchester City has just changed its owner. Although they are very rich, it is still unknown whether they can manage the club well. I still prefer to stay with Crystal Palace."

   "Then you don't want an annual salary of 15 million euros?"

   "Goooo!"

  Messi swallowed, saying that it would be a lie to say that he is not moved.

   But having experienced so many hardships since he was a child, Messi has become much precocious than his peers.

   "Dad, do you think we can take this opportunity of Manchester City's offer to ask the boss for a raise?"

   "Well, you can try it. But you only transferred last year, and you asked for a raise just a year later. Your boss may not agree to it."

   Although the contact time is not long, Jorge Messi knows very well that Chen Ran is definitely not as talkative as his appearance.

   "Then give it a try. It's not like Manchester City also made offers to Ronaldo and Kaka. It is estimated that they will also ask the boss for a salary increase, so that we won't be too abrupt."

   "Well, this is a good way. Our first choice is to stay at Crystal Palace, but if your boss is not willing to give you a raise in the end, then I will contact Manchester City Club."

   "Okay, Dad, let's do as you say."

   I have to say that Karduun Al Mubarak is indeed not an incompetent person. The series of combination punches he played after taking office really caused Chen Ran a lot of trouble.

  In the Crystal Palace Club, looking at Mendes sitting in front of him with a smile on his face, Chen Ran pouted inwardly.

   As expected, this guy really came to take advantage of the fire.

"Jorge, why are you free to come to me today? According to common sense, you should stay with Mourinho now. Real Madrid club is a big fat sheep, plus there are Mourinho. Riño's cooperation, you won't just hand it over to others, will you?"

   "Haha, Chen, you are still so funny. We are old friends. We haven't seen each other for a while. I want to come and see you too."

  Mendez took out his cigar slowly, gestured to Chen Ran, and then started smoking on his own.

   Looking at Mendes with a cigar in his mouth, like a mafia boss, Chen Ran glared at him angrily.

   "Come on, you're a very busy person. Especially when the summer transfer window is about to open, you should be busy flying around. Tell me, what are you doing with me?"

   "Sure enough, I can't hide it from you."

  Mendez shook his head with a smile, and did not continue to circle.

   "After Jose's Real Madrid wanted to introduce Chris, now Manchester City has also offered Chris a sky-high contract."

   "So, I came here today to ask what you think, whether you plan to sell Chris for cash, or let Chris stay and continue to play for Crystal Palace Club."

  Although everything was within his expectations, Chen Ran couldn't help frowning when he heard Mendez's words.

   What these agents are best at is fanning the flames and robbing them. Now that Mendes has seized the opportunity, I am afraid that Crystal Palace will have to bleed a little this time.

   "It is absolutely impossible to sell people. Chris is not for sale. I plan to let him play in Crystal Palace until he retires."

"Oh? Is it? Chen, thank you very much for your attention to Chris. However, Chris now only has an annual salary of 5 million euros, and Manchester City has offered him an annual salary of 15 million euros. This gap. Is it a little too big?"

   Hearing Mendez's blunt words, Chen Ran's mouth twitched slightly, this guy who wants money.

   "Tell me, how much do you want?"

   Now that Mendes has made things clear, Chen Ran doesn't bother to talk nonsense with him.

   "Manchester City Club offered a price of 15 million euros. I discussed it with Chris. Crystal Palace only need to increase his annual salary to 10 million euros. How about it, Chen, our request is not excessive, right?"

   As Chen Ran said, the reason why Mendes came up to showdown with Chen Ran was entirely because he was really busy right now and didn’t have time to stay in London and chat with Chen Ran slowly.

   As the head coach of Real Madrid, Mourinho now has a huge say in Real Madrid's signings.

   And the Real Madrid Club, which has a lot of money and has always been known for its big money, is also the fat that every agent is keeping an eye on.

   If it wasn't for Ronaldo being his most important player, Mendes would never have left Madrid. He now wants to stay in Real Madrid 24 hours a day.

   Chen Ran has long guessed the current state of Mendes.

   Don't look at Mendez's confident and calm look now, but he doesn't know how anxious he is.

  Since Mendes is going to act, Chen Ran has no plans to expose it. It’s enough for everyone to act together and see who can afford it.

  Cristiano Ronaldo's contract with Crystal Palace still has three years left. As long as Chen Ran doesn't nod his head, he can't go anywhere.

  Although Chen Ran is mentally prepared to give Ronaldo and the others a salary increase, it is not up to these agents to decide how and how much to increase.

   "Jorge, I can tell you frankly that I agree to give Chris a raise, but an annual salary of 10 million euros is unlikely."

   Seeing Mendes want to speak, Chen Ran gestured.

   "Don't worry, you listen to me first."

   "If I gave Chris an annual salary of 10 million euros, what about Kaka and Messi? You know that Manchester City has also made an offer to them. Do I also give them an annual salary of 10 million euros?"

   "If I give all three of them an annual salary of 10 million euros, how will the other players react? Will they also ask me for a big salary increase?"

   "So, this matter is not just a matter of giving Chris a salary increase alone, but will have a huge impact on the salary structure of the entire Crystal Palace club."

   "Jorge, as a senior agent, do you think the situations I'm talking about are very likely to happen?"

  “.”

  Mendez looked at Chen Ran speechlessly, and cursed inwardly, knowing that this little fox was not so easy to deal with.

  Chen Ran is telling the truth, but it has something to do with him?

   He is just Ronaldo's agent, not the CEO of Crystal Palace Club.

   As long as Ronaldo's salary can go up, how about other people and how does Crystal Palace Club matter?

   Of course, these words Mendez can only slander in his heart, and of course he can't say it on the surface.

   "Chen, your worries are indeed justified. However, you can bring Crystal Palace Club from an obscure Championship team to where it is today. This little trouble is not worth mentioning to you."

   "Haha, Jorge, you are really exaggerating. However, although this matter is indeed not difficult for me, I also need some time to deal with it."

   "On the one hand, let Stephen and the others calculate the operating costs of Crystal Palace Club to see how much the club can afford."

   "On the other hand, I also have to find out the bottom line among the players to see how much salary increase everyone can accept."

   "I can tell you how much I can give Chris a raise after all these things come to an end and after a comprehensive consideration."

   Looking into Mendez's eyes, Chen Ran gave him facts one by one, reasoning, not to mention how sincere he was.
