Just after breakfast, Zhang Bin called anxiously: "Wang Ai, is there something going on between you and Paris?"
"Huh?" Wang Ai unexpectedly made a gesture to the team members on the screen, who were looking down at documents or discussing with each other. Wang Ai then said to the phone: "What's wrong? Nothing has changed."
"But today many French media say that your negotiations have gone bad. What should we do? We have paid the deposit with Ligue 1!"
"What's being reported?"
"A vice president of Paris said in an interview that he would pay attention to the fans' objections. He said that many Paris fans opposed the introduction of you, believing that Paris will definitely win the Champions League with its strength. If it relies on the strength of its enemies, it will damage the dignity of Paris. Be rational.
Others said that Real Madrid would be greatly damaged without you, and you would not be so competitive without Real Madrid. On the contrary, PSG did not suffer any personnel losses. Their hopes for this season have greatly increased. Your use is not as great as imagined, but the salary
Too high."
Wang Ai listened to Zhang Bin's sudden output: "Don't worry."
"Can I not be worried? I've thrown away millions. The new season is about to start. I can't tell you where you'll go if you're cheating here. What will we do with the broadcast of this year's event?"
"Can I still say something about my affairs? You still don't know that I am not controlled by my agent."
"Yes." Zhang Bin gasped: "You are not controlled by others, but your salary can't drop, right? You want a club with Champions League qualifications, right? So you don't want to go wherever you want, right? It's really not possible.
, Wang Ai, you'd better go back to Real Madrid. I think it's good to accept a pension contract, right? Ten million a year until the age of forty. Don't you have many hobbies? With such a not-so-low salary
, if you have nothing to do, take care of young players, take care of Chinese coaches and players, and run track and field, wouldn’t it be nice? I think if you look back now, Real Madrid will definitely not refuse, and Real Madrid didn’t say a bad word about you this summer.”
Wang Ai laughed a few times: "Brother Zhang, don't worry, just listen to me."
"Okay, you say."
"Have you ever had any contact with Ligue 1? Just today?"
"No, this morning? I came to ask you as soon as I heard the letter."
"Listen to me, you have a brief meeting with me over there and have a look around."
"What's the meaning?"
"I think if I don't go to Paris, Ligue 1 will be more anxious than you."
"Um?"
"Which one do you think is bigger, Ligue 1 or Paris?"
"You mean, fake? Why?"
"One is that some fans are really emotional. The time interval is too short. It's understandable, right? Then the club must find a way to appease the fans. At least it shows that the club has noticed your voice and will seriously consider your appeal. Moreover, this part
To a large extent, fans are also supporters of the leading stars in Paris. If their idol loses and the enemy who defeats the idol is coming, of course they will be more disgusted. From the perspective of these stars, it is similar, and I have a higher salary than any of them.
, it also takes some getting used to. In addition, there is an intention to put pressure on me, but the purpose is hard to say."
"...Don't hide it anymore. I just remembered that you always do things first and then act. I have never seen you panic. What is your other purpose? Let me tell you together.
Don’t worry, I didn’t even eat breakfast this morning because I was worried. Let me tell you, my blood pressure has gone up and I’m looking for a quick fix!”
Wang Ai knew clearly that the fat man was exaggerating on purpose, but he still laughed aloud: "Probably because I accidentally got involved in the factional struggle within Paris. Do you remember what coach Tuchel said to me after the interview I gave before going to Lisbon?
A response, right? Are there some bad tendencies?"
"It seems, it seems like he doesn't like you very much?"
"I don't think he can pass people, but he should be very confident. He doesn't like to release this kind of news before the game. It's like giving his players some unrealistic expectations, such as expecting me to give in. He
You want to rely on strength. You know, Germans all have this kind of character."
"I remember you said to Pony that the result of the Champions League final will affect your negotiations with Paris?"
"Yes, if they win the championship, my conditions will definitely be lowered. If I win the championship, they will have to raise the conditions. Of course, it will definitely be uncomfortable emotionally, but I don't care about this, right? Professionalism
Well."
"Well, how did you get involved in the internal fighting in Paris?"
"Germans have strong and stubborn personalities, and they get along well with the club but not much, especially in Paris, which has a chaotic and impure way of thinking. There are structural conflicts between the two sides. When I go to Paris, of course I
It has competitive value, but at the same time it also has greater commercial and maximum publicity value, which the Germans don’t like. Let me tell you again, I have been in contact with Paris since the lockdown this year.
Tuchel's attitude has never met my expectations."
"Neither cold nor indifferent?"
"That's not true. He's crazy and indifferent to me. Who among the football teams in the world can be indifferent to me except the women's football team? I mean, in my estimation, he should be very happy.
He came to meet me in person and tried to persuade me in every possible way, but he didn’t.”
"That's it? Isn't it because I'm reserved?"
"Why should he be so reserved? What achievements does he have that he can be so reserved with me? In terms of status within the team, yes, I am a player and he is the coach, he is higher than me and I am lower, but what about outside the team? How can he compare with me?
For example, we all go to the Elysée Palace. As long as I tell my name, Castel has to receive me at home. Can he do it? So, isn't it right for him to come to see me? What's more, facing good players and coaches
Taking the initiative is the norm. Ferguson, Wenger, Guardiola and Mourinho all do this, so what does he have?"
"Are you saying that the focus of the conflict between the coach and the club is whether you are wanted or not, what kind of treatment you will be given and your status in the team?"
"The flash point of a long-term conflict. Originally, there was nothing to discuss. In the entire history of Paris, there has never been a Ballon d'Or playing for him, let alone someone like me who has won seven."
"Then what do you think will happen in the end?"
Wang Ai looked up at the time on his computer: "In a few hours, my team will sign a contract with Paris."
"Phew! If you had told me earlier, you would have made me sweat."
"Haha, didn't I tell you this? I think you are also concerned and confused. How can you not think about changes after so many years in the five major French leagues? We are the center of Europe, the host country of the Ballon d'Or, and now we finally look forward to it.
A super giant who doesn’t work hard to stay? How can he be swayed by the opinions of Paris fans? My going to Paris is not only a matter for Paris, but also for the entire French Ligue 1 and France. Why should Paris veto? Dare you?
Veto? I am the only one who vetoes Paris, there is no such thing as Paris vetoing me!"
