After the third round of the play-offs, the remaining nine promotion teams were all formed, and the Spanish League C in the 2014-15 season finally came to an end.
Pablo gave the players three weeks of leave and then returned to the team for training three weeks later to prepare for the new season.
Pablo is now very proud.
At the end of the season, he was on the verge of dismissal.
His replacement is said to be youth team coach Jose.
Now, the St. Andrew's team has not only renewed his contract, but also increased his salary.
Even if there is no salary increase, Pablo is not afraid. With the results of leading the team to Segunda B, he will not worry about no team looking for him.
Before leaving, Pablo had a confidential conversation with Chairman Carlos.
Pablo told Carlos that next season, Verano and Zhao Yang will still be the cornerstones of his team. These two people must stay, and it is best to renew their contracts now.
Regarding renewing the contract with Zhao Yang, Carlos made preparations after the first round of the play-offs.
Of course, Carlos did not expect that the contract was renewed less than half a season after the contract was signed.
The original contract was definitely not worthy of Zhao Yang's current performance. Although he didn't know, Carlos believed that there would be many clubs from the Spanish Third Division looking for Zhao Yang and promising a higher salary.
Carlos is not worried, he is willing to pay the salary, and the St. Andrew's team has been promoted to Segunda B. This is a real professional league, and there is no way to gain a foothold in Segunda B without increasing investment.
Compared with other teams, the St. Andrew's team has been kind to Zhao Yang. Zhao Yang cooperates well with his teammates. As long as there is no poaching by a higher-level team, the St. Andrew's team will definitely be Zhao Yang's best choice.
Before Zhao Yang returned to China, Carlos called Zhao Yang into his office.
Pushing a contract in front of Zhao Yang, Carlos said: "Zhao, based on your performance this season, the club believes that the old contract is no longer suitable and has decided to sign a new contract with you. In the new contract, you
The salary and signing time have changed, you can take it back and see if it suits you, we will sign it. If not, we can discuss it again."
Zhao Yang took the contract and was filled with emotions. In just a few months, his destiny had completely changed.
In the past few days, in addition to domestic big guys approaching me, there are also several teams from the Spanish League C that have contacted me, and their salaries are much higher than they are now.
Money and honors came one after another, and there was a feeling of being overwhelmed.
Chairman Carlos obviously felt the pressure.
Although I can't tell how much the salary in the new contract has increased, it is definitely higher than before.
Zhao Yang doesn't have much expectations for salary. There are no broadcast fees in Segunda C and Segunda B, and there are no fans. The salary is just that, and it can't be too high.
Zhao Yang's current tendency is to stay at St. Andrew's, unless invited by a high-level team.
At present, it is unlikely that he will play in a senior league.
The invitations Zhao Yang received were all from teams below Segunda B. In other words, either Zhao Yang's reputation was not known to the outside world, or his abilities were not recognized by high-level teams.
"Chairman Carlos, can we wait until I come back from vacation to discuss this? I've already booked my flight tickets, so I'm afraid I won't have time."
Zhao Yang said.
Carlos sighed and said, "Zhao, I think you should find an agent. It's difficult for a player to handle such highly professional matters, and he doesn't have the energy."
Carlos' words touched Zhao Yang's heart.
Zhao Yang has never had a good impression of his agent. He is a nobody. Apart from playing football, no one cares about him and no one asks him. He is nothing without an agent.
In the past few days, there have been constant invitations from teams and contracts to be negotiated. Zhao Yang does not understand Spanish, law or economics, so most of them ask Zhen Li for help.
Zhen Li is just a translator and has to ask others for advice on many things. Besides, Zhen Li also has her own work to do and doesn't have much time to help Zhao Yang.
Finding an agent is already imperative for Zhao Yang.
Zhao Yang said: "Thank you for your suggestion, I am also considering it."
Carlos said: "The company where Miss Zhen Li works is pretty good. You can consider it."
Zhao Yang said: "Okay, Chairman Carlos, I will take this contract back and have a look. If it is suitable, I will sign it directly. If it is not suitable, I will discuss it with you again."
Carlos said: "Okay, Zhao Yang, before I say goodbye, I have a few words to say to you. We have been getting along very happily during this period. I appreciate you very much. With your ability, I believe that there must be contact with the team.
You, if you want to go to a higher league, neither I nor the St. Andrew's Club will set up obstacles for you. If you are in Segunda B, I hope you can stay. Money, St. Andrew's will never give you more than others.
Shao, coach Pablo told me that the team will be built with you as the core in the new season, and I believe you will lead the St. Andrew's team to create new miracles."
For a businessman, what Carlos said is very true.
Zhao Yang was very grateful and said: "Chairman Carlos, you discovered that I am where I am today, and St. Andrew has made me possible. If nothing else, I hope to stay here and create miracles with the team.
"
Carlos patted Zhao Yang on the shoulder and said: "Chinese people are all kind and righteous. I believe you will not let down St. Andrew."
…
As soon as Zhao Yang returned to his residence, Wang Bin and Zhen Li came.
I heard that Zhao Yang was going back to China, and the two of them came to see him off.
Zhao Yang threw the contract to Zhen Li and said: "Sister Li, this is a new contract given to me by Chairman Carlos. Please help me take a look. Can you sign it?"
Zhen Li took the contract, browsed it quickly, and said: "The salary is very good, with a monthly salary of 6,000 euros. This is considered the top salary in Segunda B. There are many goals, assists, and winning awards. From the salary alone
Look, this contract is very lucrative and worth signing."
Zhao Yang said: "How many years is the contract?"
Zhen Li said: "Three years, no strings attached."
Zhao Yang said: "Sister Zhen Li, if there is no high-level team choice, I plan to stay in the St. Andrew's team."
Zhen Li said: "I asked a friend to contact you. There is no news for the time being. He asked me to ask you, are you willing to go to other countries?"
Zhao Yang said: "If it's a top league, you can consider it. If it's a second or third-tier league, forget it. It's better to stay in Spain."
Zhen Li said: "If you think so, just hold off for now. This contract is good and Chairman Carlos is very sincere. If you stay in Spain, St. Andrew's is indeed the best choice."
Zhao Yang said: "There are too many things going on recently, sister Zhen Li, I plan to find an agent, otherwise I really won't be able to cope with it."
Zhen Li said happily: "Come to our company and I will help you find a reliable agent. When you become famous, I will translate for you."
Wang Bin interjected: "I think Zhao Yang still needs a domestic agent. After all, it is difficult for the Spaniards to handle our domestic affairs well."
Zhao Yang said: "Uncle Wang is talking about Xu Bing?"
Wang Bin said: "Xu Bing has some shortcomings, but in domestic football, no one can match him."
Zhen Li said: "Yes, our company does not restrict players from finding an agent in their home country, you can consider it. After all, playing football is risky, and an injury may destroy a genius, so it is good to leave a way out.
"
Zhao Yang thought about the same reason. The system can give him football skills, but it cannot guarantee that he will not get injured. If something happens to him, returning to China will be the only way out.
"I will seriously consider it. I don't need so many agents right now. I'll sign with your company first."
Zhen Li said: "Okay, I will report to the company when I get back and ask them to come to contact you and sign the contract before you return to the country."
Zhao Yang said: "Okay, leave everything to Sister Li."
