After time travel, I can only beat up the national football team

Chapter 46 Agents and New Contracts

After the 2002 Champions League final, the name Zhang Desheng even stole a lot of attention from Real Madrid in the European media. Especially when Zidane's "volley" was mentioned, people had to Mention Zhang Desheng's "Flying Immortals from the Sky".

This makes Zhang Desheng more willing to accept interviews from domestic media. Of course, he will be more willing to appear in the eyes of domestic fans after the Chinese team returns triumphantly from the World Cup.

But after several days of various activities, including interviews with various media, Zhang Desheng had to consider looking for an agent.

Now faced with all kinds of endorsements, interviews, activities, and even private poaching from other teams, he simply can't cope with it.

He shouldn't worry too much about this kind of thing, otherwise he wouldn't be able to train or compete?

At this time, Vega, Portugal's first agent, had contacted him twice before, but Zhang Desheng didn't like this somewhat arrogant guy very much. The main reason was that Zhao Yuting didn't like this Vega.

He had also met Jorge Mendez twice before under Zhao Yuting's recommendation.

Zhang Desheng naturally knows that this young agent who has signed Deco and Mourinho within six months will be one of the best football agents in European football in the future.

But at this time, Mendes was just a fledgling player in the Portuguese football circle, even a bit like Zhao Yuting's Ma Zai.

A year ago, Mendes had few star players on his hands, and the players under his company were becoming shabbier than the last.

At that time, Mendes was not even qualified to carry Vega's shoes. There was even a situation where he took the initiative to shake hands with the senior, but was ignored by Vega.

But this guy with a keen sense of smell and unique vision was keenly aware that Porto's new boss didn't seem to have a good relationship with Vega at the banquet hosted by Zhao Yuting, and even guessed that Zhao Yuting wanted to weaken Figo's agent in the process. Porto's influence.

This was naturally a great opportunity, so Mendes tried his best to come to the door and ask for support, and finally impressed Zhao Yuting, who was in need of a knife.

This Vega used to be an agent in the banking industry in Luxembourg, and he became very successful after switching to a sports agency.

However, this person is somewhat arrogant in character and has a strong desire to control. He always feels that his position in Portuguese football is stable and no one can shake him. In recent years, he has also had a very tough attitude towards the top three of the Portuguese Super League. He has often been the top player in La Liga. The team operated some transactions that made the top three of the Portuguese Super League suffer.

So not only is Zhao Yuting displeased with him, these three clubs also intend to support other agents to compete with him.

Zhao Yuting chose Mendes, and later introduced Deco and Mourinho to him.

Zhang Desheng was naturally introduced to Mendes, but our Mr. Zhang did not agree immediately.

At that time, he felt that his fame would soon rise like a rocket, and then he would be able to receive more attention if he talked about it.

So after the season ended, Mendes came to visit again, and it sounded like he was looking at the thatched cottage.

Naturally, Zhang Desheng would not refuse at this time. The commission would be charged at 20% of the industry regulations, but he asked to get Mendes' agency, which will be the famous "Restifoot" in European football in the future. 10% of the shares.

Mendes almost fainted when he heard this, but no matter how angry he was, he couldn't take this step at all.

On the one hand, we know that Zhang Desheng is really going to take off. This kid is likely to show a performance that will shock Europe on the Champions League stage next season. A future superstar is almost halfway up.

Besides, he is no longer a man of his word.

"Damn Chinese, every one of them wants my shares!"

The target of Mendes' complaints was actually Zhao Yuting, the new owner of Porto who lured him with a package of signings for his team's stars a year ago.

In the end, Deco, Mourinho, and Carvalho did join Gerstifote one after another, but the price he paid was to sell 30% of the company's shares to Zhao Yuting.

But he didn't expect that even Zhang Desheng wanted to take away the shares from him today. This made Mendes want to yell and tell him: This is a dream, no way!

Zhang Desheng naturally knew that this was impossible. He just used the lion's mouth to make his next request more reasonable, and at the same time once again increased his status in the other party's mind. "Mr. Jorge, if you don't want to give up your shares, then help me get the image rights back!"

Only then did Zhang Desheng offer the real price. He now needs a new contract and must get the image rights back from Porto.

If Mendes wants to sign himself, who is almost recognized as the number one rising star in Europe, he has to show his ability.

"This is not an easy thing to do, but I will give you a satisfactory result!"

Mendes was relieved. Of course, he could no longer give out shares in the company.

But Zhang Desheng's test is not easy to pass, and the new boss of Porto is even more difficult to deal with.

These Chinese people are so cunning. He has been making a deal with the devil this year.

However, this test is indeed simpler than giving up 10% of the shares.

"By the way, Mr. Jorge, I heard that you signed that guy who claimed to surpass me... what was his name? Is he the guy from Sporting Lisbon who is about the same age as me?"

This is Zhang Desheng’s Oscar-worthy acting. How could he not remember Ronaldo’s name?
But the problem is that in this dimension, he really shouldn't remember the other party. After all, Ronaldo is his defeated opponent at this time, and he is still insignificant.

"Oh, you mean Cristiano, he is also a talented young player, but he cannot compare with you. You two are like a ferocious tiger and a stubborn Maine Coon cat, completely in two dimensions. "

Mendes' words were somewhat flattering, but at this moment, Zhang Desheng's status in his heart was indeed inferior to that of ten Ronaldo plus one.

"I admire him very much. Maybe he will achieve more than Quaresma. You should observe him more!"

Zhang Desheng was standing on a higher position and was judging someone who was far inferior to him.

Mendes heard this but didn't think there was anything wrong with this gesture. The current Zhang Desheng has shown great potential, especially with the huge Chinese market behind him. In the eyes of the outside world, his comprehensive value far exceeds that of Cristiano Ronaldo. Nine streets!

"Maybe!" Mendes was obviously unwilling to continue this topic and said confidently, "In a month at most, I will ask Porto to pay you a new contract. I believe you will be satisfied with the new contract." salary, and of course at least 50% of the image rights!”

He didn't say anything, because it was really difficult to get back 100% of the image rights.

Deco has only gotten back 50% of the image rights now. If Porto gives Zhang Desheng 100% of the image rights, it will be chaos.

But he is confident that Zhang Desheng will receive compensation from other places, such as a confidential super-high salary and a sky-high new contract signing fee.

Zhang Desheng said that he was testing Mendes, but he knew that the team would definitely give him a new contract in the summer.

This is not only because Zhao Yuting likes him from the bottom of his heart, but also because he deserves a top-notch treatment!
The boss will definitely not let him leave easily before he achieves results in Porto, so he directly set a 3000 million liquidated damages option on the first contract.

But Zhao Yuting didn't know that this liquidated damages was exactly the same as Messi's first contract in 2004.

Of course Zhang Desheng knew about Messi's first contract, which had a liquidated damages of 3000 million euros.

He didn't comment on the amount at that time, firstly because he wouldn't leave until he achieved results, and secondly because he felt that he was worth so much money.

If Porto really sets his release clause lower than Messi, doesn't it mean that Porto is not as optimistic about him as Barcelona?
Zhang Desheng shook his head when he thought about this. Now that he has arranged his agent's affairs, he seems to have nothing else to do except training.

"Then just go back to Macau to watch the World Cup with your parents!"

Zhang Desheng also wants to relax before starting summer training, so it is definitely the best choice to accompany his family to watch the World Cup in South Korea and Japan.
