At the beginning of June, Crystal Palace had some smooth transfers. For example, Wright Jr.'s talks were relatively successful. He himself was willing to cut his salary to join Crystal Palace. Sebastian Larsson didn't have much suspense either.
Among many suitors, he chose Crystal Palace. After all, it was a team that could play in the Champions League, so the temptation was big enough.
As for Wen Sheng's other target candidate Melo, Wen Sheng made a special trip to contact him and communicated with him. Melo is also willing to try in the Premier League. After all, he had a very unhappy life at Juventus, and the latest head coach Conte is also very happy.
He didn't like him very much, and club manager Marotta wanted to sell him.
But Crystal Palace's inquiry was not going well. Melo's transfer to Juventus originally cost them 25 million euros. Two years later, Crystal Palace quoted 5.4 million pounds. How can Juventus be satisfied with this price?!
So now everyone is arguing.
Melo has told the club that he wants to go to Crystal Palace, and that is enough.
Morelli asked Wen Sheng for advice. Wen Sheng remembered that Melo seemed to have gone to Galatasaray later, and it was on loan. In short, Juventus must have suffered a heavy loss.
Now I am not satisfied with 5.4 million pounds, so what else can I do?
"Keep them hanging, or else offer to rent first and then buy out. In short, don't let the price rise again!" Wen Sheng gave Morelli an idea.
In fact, recruiting players is a kind of gamble in itself. If you are optimistic about the player, you may not necessarily be able to use it smoothly. If you have weak financial resources, you will be gambled as much as possible.
In mid-June, Wen Sheng took a vacation and took Cheryl to China to meet his grandmother and aunt's family.
Stayed for a whole week.
His relatives were very kind to him, but they had no interest in football. They really didn’t know Wen Sheng’s reputation. Fortunately, Wen Sheng did not disclose information about his relatives in China to the media. Their peaceful life was not disturbed. Wen Sheng felt
So fine.
The week was actually very awkward. After all, they were not real relatives. The fundamental reason was because there was too little contact, so it was difficult for him to have too many feelings. Moreover, grandma wiped her eyes every time she mentioned that "cheap" dad.
Wen Sheng also had to think of his relatives in his previous life.
Now I can't find anything, which makes me even more sad.
So a week later, he left a sum of money to his grandma and aunt, and then ran away, but he also promised to come back to visit them every year in the future.
Cheryl felt that China was very good and wanted to go shopping around, but her boyfriend seemed very anxious.
"Don't you like China?!" Cheryl was very surprised. She was obviously better at speaking Chinese fluently, which was amazing. She was also a China expert, as if she knew everything about China.
"It's not that I don't like China, I'm just not used to it!" Wen Sheng was secretive and couldn't tell his girlfriend that this is my sad place and this is my home.
After the trip to China, Wen Sheng and Cheryl went to Brazil for vacation, euphemistically called it to experience the atmosphere of Samba football.
What’s interesting is that during the phone call with Zahavi, Zahavi said that he was also in Brazil.
Wen Sheng was quite curious. Wen Sheng and Zahavi met in Rio de Janeiro that night and had dinner together.
From the conversation, Wen Sheng learned that this old guy was actually Neymar's agent.
"I'll wipe it!" Wen Sheng was so shocked that he remembered that Neymar's agent was not his father, and why he became Zahavi.
"I am one of his agents! To be precise, I can handle it when he goes to Europe in the future!" Zahavi is quite proud. He has a lot of hands because he has a wide network of contacts in Europe and has agents in many places around the world.
I have contact with him and try to introduce players to play in Europe through him.
Neymar's situation is probably the same. It is best to go to Europe and get an introduction from Zahavi, who is familiar with Europe. He can help Neymar and the others make a good choice, and he can also help raise the price.
Other agents may not be able to do as well as him.
Zahavi was really nice to Wen Sheng. He tried his best to reveal the shady secrets of Wen Sheng's agent circle and kept bragging about his own abilities.
Of course he is really awesome.
"You are so awesome, let's lure Neymar to the Crystal Palace!" Wen Sheng's joke made Zahavi spit out his wine.
It stands to reason that Crystal Palace should be able to sell Neymar now, because this is not 2013, this is 2011.
But Zahavi smiled and said nothing, and finally told Wen Sheng the truth.
"He won't be in a hurry to go to Europe now! Now is not a good time!" Zahavi first gave his own judgment, and then said: "He is now in Brazil and his popularity in South America is quite high, but it can be a little higher.
! Net worth is linked to fame. His ownership does not entirely belong to Santos, but to himself! For him, the timing of going to Europe is very important!"
Wen Shengnao understood that in ancient China, some scholars loved this kind of pretentiousness, which was called Yang Wang.
There is no doubt that Neymar is not on this route. Of course, Neymar's strength is also top-notch, but the starting price for landing in Europe from South America is 57 million euros. Plus various commissions, the price Barcelona paid to introduce him is not small.
Is it worth it?! Normally, the price is too high anyway.
Now go to Crystal Palace, who are you kidding? What if you don’t adapt to the Premier League?! That would be terrible!
If you don't make much money, your reputation may plummet.
Therefore, Zahavi is right. The best choice is to stay in South America to raise his hopes now. After two years of honing his skills and becoming more famous, the European giants will naturally take advantage of it, and Neymar's stakeholders can also make money.
Get a lot of money.
Regarding this method, Wen Sheng could only give a thumbs up, damn you guys are superior.
"I'm still a bit young, your methods are quite awesome!"
Zahavi smiled and didn't take it seriously, "For professional players and us agents, only profits are eternal!"
"Where's the club?!" Wen Sheng asked with a smile.
"Honor is eternal!" Zahavi said seriously, "It shouldn't matter whether you make money or not!"
This is also true, why do clubs make money?!
Wen Sheng said, "The club exists for the fans! Honors are just add-ons!"
Zahavi thought for a while and said: "It seems that this summary is more accurate!"
Theoretically speaking, this is the case. The meaning of a club's existence is because of its fans. Without fans, the club has no meaning.
In addition to meeting Zahavi, the bigger surprise was that Wen Sheng and Cheryl bumped into Ronaldinho when they were shopping.
This is really interesting.
Ronaldinho is still owned by Milan, but in January he was loaned to Flamengo, a club located in Rio de Janeiro.
Ronaldinho is one of Wen Sheng's favorite stars. What surprised Wen Sheng even more was that Ronaldinho actually knew him.
"I know you, you are very famous in Europe!"
Ronaldinho not only gave Wen Sheng his autograph, but even agreed to send Wen Sheng a jersey.
Wen Sheng only likes the current Ronaldinho and has no idea of letting him retire at the Crystal Palace. Not to mention whether he is willing or not, Wen Sheng is absolutely not willing to let this undisciplined Brazilian superstar join the team.
He's going to the Crystal Palace. Good guy, maybe it will ruin the atmosphere. After all, those young people in the Crystal Palace who have never seen the world don't know how to play. Ronaldinho is a lot of fun.
Later, even monogamous couples were allowed to play, so there was nothing else they couldn't play with.
After traveling in Brazil for a week, Wen Sheng and Cheryl returned home and their vacation was over.
Crystal Palace have completed several deals.
The signings of Wright Phillips and Sebastian Larsson were completed in early June, and the signing of Felipe Melo was completed in the middle of June. Melo came on loan with a loan fee of 1.5 million pounds. Crystal Palace can
Choose to buy him out for £4.5 million.
Marotta is now eager to eliminate redundant personnel, and Melo keeps making trouble. Crystal Palace instead uses a more cost-effective way to win Melo.
