Chapter 1,266 Hope

Monkey and Zhang Qi’s two-pronged strategy worked.

Manchester United cannot achieve such results this season without Gao Xiaodong. Whether it is offense, defense or organization, Gao Xiaodong is indispensable in every aspect. It can be said that no one can make up for Gao Xiaodong. .

Although Ferguson is not sure whether Gao Xiaodong is a shareholder of Xinglong Brokerage, he does not dare to make Gao Xiaodong unhappy now. Even if there is a possibility of making Gao Xiaodong unhappy, Ferguson will not let it happen.

As for Pogba, he is just a young man from the second team. Although he is very talented, there are so many people practicing football in the world and not many can realize their talents. Therefore, Pogba thinks very highly of himself, but Ferguson did not take Pogba seriously. Gerba's values ​​are as high as his own. Even though many clubs are rushing to get Pogba, they don't put much pressure on Ferguson.

But now that Pogba may be from the company run by Gao Xiaodong, Ferguson can no longer offend Gao Xiaodong for 8,000 pounds a week. He quickly asked club manager David Gill to contact Zhang Qi to discuss Pogba's contract. .

Since Manchester United took the initiative to negotiate a contract, Zhang Qi certainly would not lower the conditions. Of course, in order to successfully sign the contract and avoid long nights, Zhang Qi did not ask for excessive prices. The two parties made simple bargains on annual salary, bonuses, contract time and other issues. , it’s been delayed for more than half a year

The contract was quickly finalized.

The five-year contract still has a weekly salary of 35,000 pounds, but there is no guarantee of playing time. David Gill just said to try to give Pogba a chance to exercise.

In this regard, Pogba does not dare to have any dissatisfaction. Conditions such as guaranteed playing time are basically the rights of big-name stars. How can an unknown boy like him dare to make such a request to a giant like Manchester United?

After the contract was signed, a small press conference was held, and Pogba's stay at Manchester United was finally settled.

Pogba not only stayed at Manchester United, but also received a satisfactory weekly salary. He was in a good mood. On the day he signed the contract, he invited Gao Xiaodong, Monkey, Xiao Le and Zhang Qi to dinner.

Monkey, Xiao Le and Zhang Qi are very happy to sign Pogba. Pogba has talent and is supported by Gao Xiaodong. The chance of success is very high. Once Pogba becomes famous all over the world, Xinglong Agency will also As long as the brokerage company becomes famous, it means a lot of money.

Although Gao Xiaodong is also happy to solve Pogba's problem, he is also somewhat dissatisfied with Pogba.

Gao Xiaodong thinks that Pogba is too greedy for money. He is preparing to go to other clubs for more than 10,000 pounds a week. This shows how little confidence he has in himself.

After signing the contract with Pogba, during training one day, Ferguson and Gao Xiaodong sat together and chatted. Ferguson said intentionally or unintentionally, Xiaodong, I heard that you have opened a brokerage company. If there are still good players, you must give priority to recommend them to our own club. I still trust your vision very much. "

Naturally, Ferguson would not say that he signed Pogba for Gao Xiaodong's sake, but Ferguson believed that a smart person like Gao Xiaodong would definitely understand what he meant.

Of course Gao Xiaodong would not admit it, he chuckled and said: "How can I have the energy and ability to open a company? That belongs to my friend, but he is my best friend. If there is any good idea, he will definitely give priority to sending people to it." We are Manchester United."

Although Gao Xiaodong did not admit it, Ferguson had heard Gao Xiaodong's meaning from his words and knew that this move was the right one. If he really competed with Pogba at that time, he and Gao Xiaodong were destroyed. good relationship between

I'm afraid it won't be easy to handle later.

Although the rumors spread by Monkey and Zhang Qi contributed to Pogba's signing, they also had some adverse effects.

Even Ferguson had heard that Xinglong Agency was run by Gao Xiaodong, so naturally he couldn't escape Mendes' ears.

In fact, Mendes had long suspected that the Xinglong agency was run by Gao Xiaodong, and the so-called boss of Xinglong Company was also a cover created by Gao Xiaodong. And based on Mendes' understanding of Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong could do it.

Suspicion is suspicion, but Mendes did not dare to ask Gao Xiaodong for confirmation, nor did he dare to cause trouble for Gao Xiaodong. He was worried that Gao Xiaodong would terminate his contract directly after Gao Xiaodong broke up with him, because Gao Xiaodong not only gave him every transfer Bringing an income of up to tens of millions of euros, and after owning Gao Xiaodong, any wealthy club must form a good relationship with him and please him in order to have a chance to grab Gao Xiaodong, a superstar. There are great bonuses to status and business.

However, Mendes cannot remain indifferent and allow Gao Xiaodong's company to develop (without investigation, Mendes also determined that Xinglong Agency is Gao Xiaodong's industry), because since Gao Xiaodong has opened an agency, that transfer I definitely don’t want to let others earn an income of tens of millions or more. When Xinglong Brokerage Company grows, Gao Xiaodong will definitely terminate his contract with Gedford Company. This is almost inevitable.

When Mendes was thinking about how to handle this matter, his nephew Correa came. When he saw Mendes, Correa said angrily: "This tall and fat man is really an unfamiliar dog. Back then, If it weren't for your support and help, uncle, he would have become a superstar, let alone win the Golden Globe Award. But as soon as he became famous, he tried to throw you away."

Mendes said coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Xiaodong is still a member of our Gasfoot Company."

Correa said: "It is still the case now, but it will no longer be the case soon. That monkey is not a good thing. He must have been sent by Fatty Gao as a spy. The Chinese are so treacherous."

Mendes' face darkened and he said: "Correa, don't talk nonsense outside. If I hear anything about it, I will definitely not be able to spare you."

Correa said in confusion: "Uncle, Fatty Gao treats you like this, why are you still protecting him like this?"

Mendes said coldly: "Stupid! Get out, I want to think of something."

Correa went out aggrievedly. He didn't know that Mendes was not protecting Gao Xiaodong, he was protecting his annual income of millions of euros and some hidden opportunities.

After Correa left, Mendes kept meditating in the room. Sometimes he would write repeatedly in front of his desk: strike... cooperate... win over... these words.

Mendes is conflicted because now that Gao Xiaodong has become a superstar, won the Golden Globe Award, and is becoming more mature, he can no longer control Gao Xiaodong's destiny. He can attack Gao Xiaodong's agency and other businesses. , but if Gao Xiaodong terminates the contract with him, he will have no choice.

If the company that attacks Gao Xiaodong cannot let Gao Xiaodong stay, the blow will be outweighed by the gain and lose-lose for Mendes. This is something Mendes is not willing to do. He is a businessman and pays attention to profits rather than vindictiveness. Therefore, after some After careful consideration, Mendes felt that it would be better to cooperate with Gao Xiaodong's company for the time being to find win-win opportunities. If Gao Xiaodong is unwilling, it will not be too late to strike again.
