Before leaving for Naples, Su Qing in China made a phone call to Gao Shen.
A few days ago, after Gao Shen got the formal contract negotiated by the lawyers of both parties, he was not very relieved. After Su Qing heard about it, she asked Gao Shen to fax it to her. She ran directly back to the capital and went to the university to find an old professor from the law school to read it.
Already.
Domestic football contracts are still very messy at present, while Europe is relatively more rigorous. This old expert was also very interested and specially helped Gao Shen check it out. He felt that there were basically no problems and the terms were very strict.
"There is just one place that he doesn't understand very well." Su Qing said on the phone.
"where?"
"If you turn to page 16 and look down, Article 4 doesn't seem to have a specific deadline. Does that mean it will take effect permanently?"
Gao Shen took a look and saw that this clause was an agreement between Gao Shen and the Naples club regarding the sharing of player transfer differences.
But perhaps it was the first time for both parties to see such a strange clause, and De Laurentiis specifically added it, so some of the content was not particularly rigorous. After all, neither party had any experience before.
Normally, the terms should take effect while Gao Shen is coaching Naples, but according to the actual terms, even if Gao Shen leaves Naples in the future, the share will still be paid.
Gao Shen guessed that this was probably because the lawyers on both sides had misunderstood what they meant.
Or maybe there was no misunderstanding, it was just that De Laurentiis was so smart that he was misled by his cleverness, and he didn't want to understand this.
Of course, if you look at it from the perspective of a newly promoted Serie B team, it actually doesn't matter, but if you take into account that in the future, players will easily spend tens of millions of euros in transfer fees, then this is astonishing.
For example, the top player on Gaoshen's signing list is Hamsik, a young player currently playing for Brescia.
How much money does he have now?
Brescia has also fallen into Serie B, and Hamsik is not the main player of the team. Two million euros is considered very high, but what about the future?
Naples either doesn't sell it, but if it sells it, it will cost tens of millions of euros, and 20% of the difference will be given to Gao Shen. How much will it cost?
What?
De Laurentiis doesn’t want to sell?
It's okay, I'll coach another team, I'll directly poach you and make you angry to death, you stingy old monster!
My God, that picture is so beautiful, I can’t even imagine it.
"By the way, if we sign like this, will it cause any controversy?" Gao Shen asked.
"It doesn't seem to be the case at the moment. The lawyers on both sides are experienced. The terms are very clear and there are no problems. It's this point that our professor said he didn't understand. Let me ask you. If it's not good for you, it's best to change it."
"Then there's no need to change it." Gao Shen couldn't help laughing.
If you don't take advantage of it, you are a turtle bastard.
"Why do I listen? Who seems to have been betrayed by you?" Su Qing was also very curious.
"Don't worry, don't worry, no one will be willing to sell you." Gao Shen laughed and said, "You have helped me a lot this time. If you find time later, I will cover all your food, clothing, housing and transportation when you come to Italy."
"real?"
"It's necessary. Brother Shen always means what he says."
"No? I remember, when you were in third grade..."
"Stop it, don't mention the past again..."
…………
…………
When it comes to Naples, Italy, the first thing everyone thinks of is the Mafia and dirty gangs.
This is actually not unreasonable. There are many immigrants in Naples, so the public security is not much better.
But De Laurentiis proudly told Gao Shen that when he was the head coach of Naples, he didn't need to worry about this, because football is the best pass in this city, and even the Mafia is the most fanatical Naples fan.
Of course, no one can have the name of Naples head coach on their forehead, so be careful.
After getting off the plane, the staff responsible for picking him up specially drove Gao Shen through the old town and bustling neighborhoods in the city center so that he could more intuitively browse this city, which is known as the most authentic Italian style.
The buildings are not very high, and you can feel the dilapidation of the economic crisis from the exterior.
Advertising and graffiti are everywhere like dog-skin plaster.
The driver in front of him was not disgusted by this, but was rather proud of it. He emphatically introduced to Gao Shen a huge graffiti of Maradona in the city center, which was made by Naples fans in 1990.
Even though more than ten years have passed, the city has never forgotten Maradona and defends his graffiti from time to time.
Naples is a city surrounded by a bay. The airport is in the northeast of the city and the San Paolo Stadium is in the southwest of the city.
But what is interesting is that the Posillipo area where the stadium is located happens to be the area where wealthy people live in Naples. It is also the area with the best security, commonly known as the Bay Area.
When Gao Shen arrived at the San Paolo Stadium in Naples, it was already crowded with hundreds of media reporters.
Some of them are local reporters, and some have come specially from Rome and Milan, or even from abroad.
Just three days ago, De Laurentiis released the news in the local media that Gao Shen would coach Naples.
This immediately caused a strong earthquake throughout European football.
Previously, the media had been rumoring that Gao Shen was going to coach Juventus, and Juventus did not deny it. Blanco even said in public that Gao Shen is the most anticipated young coach in European football today.
Players such as Nedvěd, Buffon and Del Piero have also expressed their opinions in public that Gao Shen's coaching at Juventus would be very exciting. This is tantamount to giving the green light to Gao Shen's coaching.
But who would have thought that Gao Shen would turn around and end up coaching Naples.
Although they are both Serie B, there are 22 teams in Serie B. Juventus is the quasi-champion that everyone has booked early, and Napoli is a newly promoted Serie B team that has been in existence for two seasons. Can it be the same?
Why on earth did Gao Shen give up Juventus and coach Napoli?
Could it be that he was deceived by De Laurentiis of Naples again?
Those in the know don't say anything, and those who don't know can only make blind guesses.
…
De Laurentiis stood in front of the window of his office, watching the media reporters entering one after another, and his mood was surging.
He still remembers that not long ago, when he officially changed the name of the club and cut the ribbon, there were only three or two media reporters present. He sent the press releases to the major media specially, and they were only in an inconspicuous corner.
One sentence was reported.
But now, he hastily counted, at least more than 200 media outlets.
"This is the influence of a double-championship coach!" De Laurentiis exclaimed.
Let alone him, even if he invited the famous coach Ventura to coach before, he didn't have such appeal.
"Of course, Gao Shen is very popular now." Marino also laughed at the side.
De Laurentiis is very proud of his operation. Former head coach Rhea has also taken care of the aftermath and there will be no problems. The next step is to officially sign a contract with Gao Shen.
However, before that, there is still a small hidden danger that needs to be eliminated.
"Pieppaolo, there's something I have to tell you in advance." De Laurentiis, who had been smiling just now, suddenly became sinister, just like changing his face. When Marino saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
cold.
This boss is really moody.
When he likes you, nothing is a problem, but once he hates you, sorry, get out.
"Boss, tell me."
"You know, I have put a lot of effort into poaching Gao Shen this time, and I have made a big bet. I don't want anyone in the club to get in the way or use tricks on this matter. You understand me.
What do you mean?"
Marino had a sudden thought and nodded immediately: "I understand, don't worry, I will watch."
"Well, you have to fully cooperate with Gao Shen and build the team as soon as possible. I am very much looking forward to our appearance in Serie A next season." De Laurentiis laughed, this was the first five years he had planned.
plan.
"I see."
De Laurentiis's eyes looked old, but were actually very sharp, like an eagle. After staring at Marino for a while, he turned his head and said, "I know you have been wronged in this matter, but don't worry
Go and do the work. Once the work is done, you can become the general manager."
Marino looked up, full of surprise, and then his brows lit up with joy, and he nodded hastily, "Don't worry, boss, there will never be any trouble."
As technical director, Marino suffered a disadvantage after Gao Shen took office in Naples, because part of the power that originally belonged to him was transferred to Gao Shen, and Marino was more like an executor under Gao Shen's command.
It is impossible to say that Marino is not worried.
People always have emotions.
But with De Laurentiis around, Marino didn't dare to disobey.
Things are different now. If he is promoted from technical director to general manager but still holds the position of technical director, then Marino will suddenly have a lot more power.
More importantly, his future career prospects will also be broader.
…
Seeing Marino happily going out to do errands, De Laurentiis had a slight smile on his lips.
He is still very satisfied with the technical director. After serving at Udinese for many years, Marino has enough contacts and skills to create a scouting network for Naples all over the world.
It's still early, but when the team is promoted to Serie A in the future, this network will be effective.
Gao Shen is also someone he values very much.
De Laurentiis actually dislikes Italy's head coaches because they are too mature and prudent and lack the courage to forge ahead, so Italy's overall tactical style is very conservative.
But Naples is different.
Whether it is De Laurentiis, this team, or this city, they are all passionate and full of passion.
Especially now, the team has been promoted from the third level to Serie B. De Laurentiis is determined to rush to Serie A and revive the glory of Naples.
Rhea has ability, but no courage.
But the difference is different. He is young and full of energy and courage, and has advanced technical and tactical concepts. He dares to think, speak and do. This is very consistent with the current situation in Naples and is also very consistent with De Laurentiis's thoughts.
He is very much looking forward to whether Gao Shen can really turn Naples into a strong Serie A team within three years.
Therefore, he is willing to make a big bet!
The greater the risk, the greater the reward. He understands this!
