The Era of Emerald

() "Addition and Completion Plan" Chapter 38

The school is disconnected from the Internet, so I can't post it, so it's late, please understand...

Because I couldn’t find the information, I wrote it very slowly. Now I’m going to code Chapter 3. If you can’t wait, you can read it tomorrow...

"Tony, you've been making a big splash recently." Just as Zhuang Mingge was thinking about the team's summer signings, Karin's voice drifted into his ears, "Gabriel's heartfelt speech is a It will soon make you the most famous person in Florence."

"I said Karin, don't make fun of me here, okay? People are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. Muxiu will be destroyed by forest wind. The current situation is that no matter where I go, there are Fiorentina fans coming out to look for me. Ask for an autograph." Zhuang Mingge said with a sad face.

Since Barty publicly expressed his gratitude to Zhuang Mingge, the chairman, at the celebration two days ago, Zhuang Mingge, who had always been behind the scenes, was quickly pulled to the front by a group of unscrupulous Italian media, and he was in charge of Florence. The work of the year is highly appreciated.

The hype of the media made Zhuang Mingge's popularity in Italy skyrocket. Now that he is more or less a celebrity, if he wants to go shopping with Karin, it is impossible for him to be as comfortable as before.

Seeing Zhuang Minge's troubled look, Karin put away her teasing thoughts and started talking about business: "Hey, Tony, do you have any plans for this summer's signings?"

"Just now I thought about it, Francini and Parry are leaving, Djorkaeff also needs a reliable substitute, Corini cannot replace Djorkaeff's role in the team, so the team is now A right-back and an attacking midfielder are needed."

"Then do you have any players in your eyes?" The legend of Zhuang Mingge's "Golden Eye" is quietly circulating in the Fiorentina club. After all, since the day the boss took charge of Fiorentina two years ago, he has never advocated signings. "Parallel imports", whether it is veterans such as Parry and Francini, or unknown young players such as Corini, Vieri, Inzaghi, etc., the performance of the game this season has made the club spend on them. Membership fees were not in vain.

"Gianluca Zambrotta, born on February 1977, 2, is now playing for the Como team in the Italian second division. I think he should be able to serve as the main substitute at the right back position."

Karin called up Zambrotta's information from the computer in the office, read it carefully, and said, "Tony, are you sure you are not dazzled? The computer shows that Zambrotta is a right-handed player. Avant-garde!"

"Hehe, I want Coach Ranieri to transform Zambrotta into the same type of player as Di Livio."

"You mean, this Zambrotta has the ability to become an all-rounder like Juve's Di Livio?" Karin's eyes lit up and asked, "If it is really what you said, That would be great!"

Because if there is an all-rounder in the team, it can save a lot of trouble. After all, a team can only bring seven substitute players. With such an all-rounder on the court, the coaches can have more flexibility in tactical changes. There is room for choice.

"However, Zambrotta has only played once in Como this season. I am afraid that in terms of immediate combat power, he is much worse than the current Parry."

"There is no way around this. Why is there still a limit on the number of foreign players who can play at the same time? There can only be three foreign players on the field at the same time. Batty, Effenberg, and Djorkaeff are almost unshakable, so The position of right back can only be a local player." Zhuang Mingge also felt very depressed about this, although he has countless future stars in his mind, but under this restriction, it is basically impossible to do anything.

European Court of Justice, when will you issue the verdict...

"So, you mean, are you planning to go abroad to find another substitute midfielder?" Karin didn't feel Zhuang Mingge's "depression", but discovered another hidden "meaning" from his words .

(Note: Serie A stipulates that each team is allowed to have 5 foreign players, but only three can play at the same time)

"That's right, it's time to introduce this player. I've been watching him for a long time." Zhuang Mingge looked out the window and said, "Karin, make some preparations. We'll go to Lisbon tomorrow."

"Okay, Tony."

……

The next day, Zhuang Mingge took Karin to Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, in a private plane (sent by Berezovsky, Russia).

Portugal is located at the southwestern tip of Europe, with a land area of ​​92000 square kilometers and a population of only 1000 million. It is an out-and-out small country.

Calculated according to the scale of China, there are only two places in Portugal that can barely be called cities. One is the capital Lisbon, with a population of 80; the other is the northern city of Porto, with a population of 60.

Lisbon, located in the southwestern part of Portugal and bordering the Atlantic Ocean, was one of the most prosperous ports in the world 500 years ago, and now it is also a prosperous southern European city. More than half of the population lives in satellite cities around Lisbon's urban area, which makes it only accommodating The old city of Lisbon, with a population of 40, is quite quiet.

"Chairman Corleone, I am Azerado, the chairman of the Benfica Club, and welcome to the beautiful Lisbon." Walking into the gate of the Benfica headquarters, a middle-aged fat man came forward and greeted Zhuang Mingge.

Could this fat man be the same Azerado who was accused of misappropriating club assets and went to jail?Zhuang Mingge smiled and shook hands with each other, while complaining in his heart.

If the embezzler is really this fat man, then this trip to Benfica should not be disappointing.

With enough financial support, it shouldn't be a problem to take down a greedy chairman...

Under the guidance of Azerado, Zhuang Mingge and others walked into the pre-arranged reception room together.

"Chairman Corleone, I have already heard about your intentions on the phone." Azerado sat down on the sofa, holding a cup of steaming coffee, and said, "About Ruy's transfer, our club is in principle It is acceptable, and Ruy himself is willing to develop on a bigger platform...The question now is how much transfer fee you are going to pay for the core midfielder of our team."

Rui Costa, a representative of Portugal's golden generation, a generation of midfield masters, is the goal of Zhuang Minge's trip.

Historically, Costa should have joined Fiorentina last season, but because Zhuang Mingge changed Effenberg's fate, and Fiorentina, who was newly promoted at the time, did not have enough capital to persuade Costa himself to accept the position of a rotation player. As a result, the Portuguese midfielder failed to join the Viola in the summer of 94 as historically.But a miracle happened, and other teams seemed to ignore the Portuguese midfielder who was as famous as Figo, making Costa stay in Benfica for another year.

And now, Fiorentina, the double champion of Serie A and the European Cup Winners Cup, has proved that the team has the capital to win honors, and Costa, who is eager to show his talent on a bigger stage, is tempted by the championship. Shouldn't mind being a rotation player...

Now Zhuang Mingge's job is to use enough transfer fee to make Azera let go.After all, what Azerado said just now means very simple, we don't mind selling Costa, but you also have to show enough "sincerity".
