When Su Dong came to the private room of the Chinese restaurant in the center of Barcelona, Wang Chuqing, Mendes and Ma Dawei had been waiting for a while. When they saw Su Dong entering, they all stood up.
"Tell the others later, take this first."
As soon as they met, Su Dong handed over three envelopes to Mendes, Ma Dawei and Wang Chuqing respectively.
"Me too?" Wang Chuqing was a little surprised.
Today she wore a black OL suit with a white shirt underneath. She looked particularly intellectual and outlined her beautiful figure. Coupled with her height, she was really lethal.
"Not many, just five. You can give them to your classmates or friends." Su Dong smiled.
Wang Chuqing was very surprised. Nowadays, scalpers outside sell a ticket for the Champions League final for three to four thousand euros. These five tickets are worth nearly twenty thousand euros. Su Dong's gift is considered a heavy one.
Mendes and Ma Dawei also each have an envelope, which also contains tickets for the Champions League final.
But unlike Wang Chuqing, they are either Su Dong's agents or Su Dong's employees, and usually have something to deal with, such as giving to sponsors or partners.
Although Sudong has reached the Champions League finals for three consecutive seasons, to the outside world, a ticket to the Champions League finals is quite precious, especially for a focus game like Barcelona vs. Chelsea.
Both teams can be said to be the strongest teams in European football at the moment.
"Where did you get so many tickets?" Mendes asked with a smile.
Although it is a team that has reached the Champions League final, the number of tickets allocated to each player is limited. It is impossible to say that players can get as many as they want. Wouldn't the club be in chaos?
In many cases, even the players themselves have trouble buying tickets because the ticket supply is really tight.
"I called Soriano to get it."
Soriano is Barcelona's vice-president in charge of finance. He is not a direct descendant of Laporta, but he is a professional. He does not have a great say in the club, but after several contacts, he can get along well with Su Dong.
Can say a few words.
Find Soriano to get the game tickets, that's the right way to go.
Of course, you can't do this kind of thing too much, just look for it during the Champions League finals. After all, Su Dong is here for serious work. Come here once in a while, but it can enhance some feelings, but if you do this on weekdays, it will definitely cause trouble.
People are bored.
…
"Tell me, how's it going?"
After the restaurant waiter finished serving the food, closed the door and exited, Su Dong asked while eating the food.
There was only one reason for the three Mendes to appear in Barcelona at the same time, and that was to talk to the Barcelona management about Sudong's contract renewal. This was Barcelona's initiative.
It's interesting to say that the contract was just renewed last year, and it's about to be renewed this year.
It can only be said that Su Dong is climbing one level at a time, so Barcelona management has to pay attention to it.
Part of the reason is that Laporta felt pressure from the opposition on the board of directors.
Rosell did not come forward in person, but he has people on the Barcelona board of directors who are plotting to impeach the chairman, so now Laporta is desperately trying to gain impression points from fans, hoping to consolidate his ruling foundation.
The purpose of renewing the contract with Su Dong is to make a clear statement and tell all Barcelona fans that the results achieved by the club today are all due to his governance, especially Su Dong, whom he strongly advocated for!
For this kind of thing, Su Dong is also happy to see it happen.
It's impossible for Barcelona to take the initiative to renew his contract and give him a salary increase. He wouldn't be happy, right?
"They hope to complete the contract renewal negotiations as soon as possible and strive to sign it before June. In terms of annual salary, they are willing to offer an after-tax annual salary of 12 million euros, but they need to renegotiate the bonus."
As soon as Mendes finished speaking, Ma Dawei couldn't help laughing happily.
"What's going on?" Su Dong felt a little strange.
"Don't you know?" Ma Dawei was surprised.
"What do you know?" Su Dong was confused.
"That's right." Mendes explained with a smile, "The reason why Barcelona wants to renegotiate the bonus terms is mainly because you have received too many bonuses in the past two seasons, especially this season."
Su Dong didn't understand what he heard, but he vaguely guessed something, "You mean, Barcelona are in a hurry to renew the contract. In addition to the campaign, part of the reason is that I received too much bonus?"
Mendes nodded, "Remember? When we negotiated the contract extension with Barcelona, we negotiated the bonus clause, and Laporta and others did not pay special attention to it. For example, your appearance fee is 50,000 euros.
, your goal bonus is 70,000 euros, and there are also winning bonuses, championship bonuses, as well as winning the best of the match, winning the best of the month, being selected for the best team of the season, and winning the World Footballer and Ballon d'Or.
…Wait, there are bonuses for all of this.”
Su Dong nodded somewhat blankly.
There are bonus clauses in the contract, and he knows that, as do almost all professional players.
The annual salary is only a part of the contract, or the bulk of it, but there are also a series of other rewards, such as appearance fees and signing fees that everyone has. The latter is a one-time fee, and the former means you can get money every time you play.
The only difference is that it is paid monthly or after each game. Su Dong’s appearance fee is the same as that of a substitute, but some are different.
I even heard that some players are divided more carefully, for example, the Champions League appearance fee and the league appearance fee are different.
For fans, this may be just a number, but for players, it is money, which can easily cost several thousand or even over ten thousand euros. For Su Dong, the appearance fee for one game is even fifty thousand euros.
Back then, compared to the annual salary of nearly 10 million after tax, it was really nothing.
"Have you ever counted how much bonus you have received this season?" Mendes asked with a smile.
Su Dong frowned, shook his head and said, "I haven't calculated it. Aren't you the one checking it for me?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Mendes smiled slightly, "When Barcelona first negotiated the contract with us, like everyone else, they felt that the bonus clause was small, so they didn't take it too seriously.
Last season, there were quite a few, but not too much, but this season is different. We are fighting on three fronts, plus the Spanish Super Cup, the European Super Cup and the Club World Cup."
"According to the contract, goals and assists are worth the same money, so strictly speaking, you can get a bonus of 8 million euros this year just for goals and assists, plus appearance fees and winning bonuses.
Various best prizes, as well as World Footballer and Ballon d'Or prizes, etc..."
Mendes didn't finish speaking, but Su Dong was already very surprised.
Ma Dawei and Wang Chuqing were also shocked, especially when they just heard the news.
"I guess you are the first and probably the only player in European football who gets more bonuses than his annual salary. Even a wealthy club like Barcelona can't afford it." Mendes shook his head with a wry smile.
Su Dong was speechless. He really hadn't calculated it carefully. The accountant of Mendez Company was helping with the calculation.
Although his salary card is in his own hands, he has never cared about how much money is in it. Anyway, when he wants to spend money, he just swipes it or transfers money to his parents. The rest of the time, he basically doesn't care.
These.
It was also at this time that Su Dong realized that he was such a wealthy person.
"I really didn't mean it." Su Dong smiled bitterly.
He has played many more games this year than last season, such as the Copa del Rey, Spanish Super Cup and Club World Cup, and scored more goals. As a result, the bonus will naturally be more.
The other bonuses were real bonuses, but Su Dong's bonus was more than his annual salary, which was a bit excessive.
No wonder Barcelona couldn't bear it and were anxious to renew and renegotiate the contract.
"Then what are they going to talk about?" Su Dong asked with concern.
"I have stated that we cannot suffer losses, but they still hope to integrate the bonuses and change them into comprehensive considerations, such as rewarding based on staged results, such as the number of goals and assists, how much bonus will be given at one time, etc.
"
To put it bluntly, I still hope that Su Dong will continue to score goals, but the goal bonus will be smaller.
"To be honest, let alone Barcelona, none of the giants in European football have ever encountered someone like you before. If every forward scored goals like you, the European giants would go bankrupt." Ma Dawei
smiled.
To a certain extent, the more bonuses given to Su Dong, the better Barcelona's performance will be.
But one thing is that better results do not mean higher profits for Barcelona, such as La Liga and Copa del Rey.
So much so that Barcelona can't bear it now and can't stand Su Dong's constant scoring goals.
There were more than 30 goals before, but now they have scored more than 50 goals. The goal bonus in a single season is 8 million euros. Who can afford it?
You know, Ronaldinho's annual salary is only 8 million euros.
This is simply outrageous!
If Barcelona's management doesn't step back from the brink quickly when it comes to this, the response will indeed be too slow.
Su Dong himself found it funny. He didn't expect that he would still have this problem after he kept scoring goals?
Do Laporta and others think that they are scoring goals just to get bonuses?
In any case, Su Dong will not pay attention to these things.
Regarding the contract matters, Su Dong left it to Mendes, Wang Chuqing and Ma Dawei to take charge. Wang Chuqing mainly served as a legal advisor, and there would be a dedicated lawyer responsible for the specific matters.
As for Su Dong, he still focuses more on competition and training.
"Don't worry, even if the bonus terms are really changed, I will definitely not let you suffer."
Mendes is still very confident in negotiations.
"According to the information I have received, Shevchenko has basically decided to move to Chelsea. Abramovich is willing to offer him an annual salary of 10 million euros, which is about a weekly salary of just over 120,000 pounds, which will be more than
You are still high, and I plan to use this as a reference for negotiations. I think Barcelona’s 12 million euros are still low.”
He and Su Dong share a community of interests, and 10% of what Su Dong earns belongs to him, so the higher the negotiated salary, the more he will get.
