Episode [170]: Florentino’s Ambition
Cristiano Ronaldo wins this year's World Footballer of the Year!
Cristiano Ronaldo has become Mr. Double. Now all major media are reporting the news crazily. Cristiano Ronaldo has dominated the screen in the past two days.
That night, Zhong Cheng and Cristiano Ronaldo did not leave directly, but stayed in Switzerland for one night, preparing to leave Switzerland the next day.
Not long after returning to the hotel, Zhong Cheng welcomed the first group of people!
Yes, this is the first batch!
Here comes Florentino Perez!
Yes, this is the former Real Madrid chairman who built the Galacticos generation and proposed the "Zidane + Pavin" policy.
Although he is not the chairman of Real Madrid now, he is actively planning to return to Real Madrid and become the chairman of Real Madrid again.
The election for the presidency of Real Madrid is coming soon.
Because Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon's term expires in 2010, with only one year left, Florentino Perez has to prepare.
Of course, since Ramon Calderon took over Real Madrid, there has been constant negative news, which is also the reason why Florentino Perez is ready to take over.
Now, just like back then, Florentino Perez wants to introduce a group of super powerful and shocking stars to join Real Madrid to win over Real Madrid fans and vote for him to support his return. real Madrid.
Florentino Perez has admired Cristiano Ronaldo for a long, long time. Moreover, Ramon Calderon also likes Cristiano Ronaldo, and the two are competing to see who can get this important weight of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Recently, there have been more and more negative news about Ramon Calderon. Florentino Perez felt that Ramon Calderon could no longer hold on any longer. He wanted to speed up the pace and introduce him as soon as possible. Cristiano Ronaldo came to see Zhong Cheng.
Recently, Real Madrid chairman Ramon Calderon has had too much negative news, such as falsifying at members' meetings, embezzling public funds, extracting commissions, illegally introducing players, etc.
The most surprising thing was Ramon Calderon's fraud at the membership meeting.
That year, not long after Ramon Calderon took over Real Madrid, the Real Madrid club began to decline, and its results became worse and worse. Fans and members were very dissatisfied with Ramon Calderon. There were complaints.
Not long ago, that is, a month ago, at the Real Madrid General Assembly on December 7, 2008, in order to prevent himself from being impeached and dismissed, Ramon Calderon asked more than 10 people without voting rights to Close confidants participated in the voting and voted for him.
When everyone discovered that the opposition expressed opposition, Ramon Calderon immediately cut the mess quickly, found a scapegoat, and fired two club executives in an attempt to smooth over the matter.
However, not long ago, Spain's "Marca" disclosed this matter, which caused Real Madrid fans to complain and called on Ramon Calderon to get out.
Of course, "Marca" also claimed that after Ramon Calderon became the chairman of Real Madrid, all his relatives and friends became Real Madrid staff, and there was no need for any review procedures. As long as he spoke, these People are legal, and these people will not even be allowed to participate in the assessment. These people don't have to do any work, but they earn higher wages than ordinary people, which makes the club full of complaints.
"Marca" claimed that Spanish relevant departments are now investigating Ramon Calderon, and it is very likely that he will face 6 months and 3 years in prison.
It was precisely because of these problems that Florentino Perez saw an opportunity. He felt that Ramon Calderon could not last much longer and would probably resign soon.
That's why Florentino Perez is so anxious now.
Florentino Perez thought, Ramon Calderon had just resigned, and then he took Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid with a high profile. Isn't this supported by all Real Madrid fans?
Moreover, if he can wait for Cristiano Ronaldo to join Real Madrid for the entire time, who else can compete with him for the position of Real Madrid chairman?
Now, Florentino Perez came to Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng extended his right hand to Florentino Perez and said, "Hello, Mr. Florentino!"
Florentino Perez also extended his right hand to Zhong Cheng: "Hello, Mr. Loya!"
Zhong Cheng motioned for Florentino Perez to sit down, and then asked Julia Oliveira to serve Florentino Perez opposite him a cup of coffee.
Zhong Cheng just looked at Florentino Perez quietly, with no intention of speaking.
Florentino Perez smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Loya, I think you should know the reason why I came to you today!"
Zhong Cheng nodded slightly and said, "Of course I understand!"
Yes, Zhong Cheng did not deal with Florentino Perez, but directly dealt with it, because today was indeed tiring, and Zhong Cheng wanted to rest early.
Florentino Perez immediately said: "So what does Mr. Loya think? We are going to take away Cristiano Ronaldo!"
Zhong Cheng immediately shook his head and said: "No, no, no! Cristiano Ronaldo is not for sale in our club, we will not sell him!"
Florentino’s brows furrowed, which was beyond Florentino Perez’s expectations.
For Cristiano Ronaldo, Florentino is a must-win!
Florentino Perez immediately said: "We are bidding 80 million euros, you have to think clearly, this is 80 million euros!"
Zhong Cheng chuckled and said: "Can 80 million win the double football player now? I think Mr. Florentino is still alive in 2002!"
Florentino's eyes tightened and he stared at Zhong Cheng.
After a while, Florentino asked: "Then how much money do you think can take away Cristiano Ronaldo?"
Zhong Cheng shook his head slightly and said: "I still say the same thing, Cristiano Ronaldo is not for sale in our club, we will not sell him!"
Florentino Perez stared at Zhong Cheng sharply, seeming to put pressure on Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng smiled slightly, looking very relaxed and said nothing.
Florentino Perez pondered for a moment, and then said: "90 million euros, what do you think?"
Zhong Cheng smiled slightly and said: "This is not a matter of money, it is that we at Leeds United really have no intention of selling Cristiano Ronaldo. He is not for sale to our club!"
Florentino stared at Zhong Cheng closely without saying anything, as if he wanted to tell Zhong Cheng right away.
Zhong Cheng still smiled, and then said: "Mr. Florentino, I think you should not bother, Cristiano Ronaldo, we will not sell him!"
Florentino Perez felt a little angry in his heart. He stared at Zhong Cheng for a while and then said: "One hundred million euros, what do you think? I think it's better not to be too greedy. You What do you say?"
Zhong Cheng stood up directly and said: "Yes, I agree, people should not be greedy. Just guard your own one-third of an acre, and don't covet other people's things!"
After saying that, Zhong Cheng stared at Florentino Perez with a harmless look on his face!
Florentino Perez stared at Zhong Cheng sharply, and after a while he said: "It seems that Mr. Loya is really unwilling to sell Cristiano Ronaldo!"
Florentino Perez saw Zhong Cheng's intention of seeing off the guest, and then he stood up directly and turned around to leave.
However, just as Florentino Perez was about to leave the room, he suddenly stopped.
Florentino Perez turned to look at Zhong Cheng and said: "Sometimes, it's better not to be too confident. We at Real Madrid can still pay the liquidated damages!"
Florentino Perez was obviously threatening Zhong Cheng.
Looking at Florentino Perez's sharp eyes, Zhong Cheng smiled lightly and said: "If Real Madrid is willing to pay 150 million pounds in liquidated damages, I don't mind if you take away Cristiano Ronaldo! "
Even Florentino Perez was shocked when he heard the huge liquidated damages, and his eyes were almost filled with stars.
What is the concept of 150 million pounds? This is almost reaching 200 million euros!
Yes, to put it mildly, it can really be claimed as 200 million euros!
Spending 200 million euros to introduce a player, at this time, even Real Madrid and Florentino Perez cannot do it, and it is even unimaginable!
This is too stupid, right? Players have not yet entered the era of 100 million yuan worth. Is this going to directly increase to 200 million yuan?
Obviously, Florentino Perez didn’t dare to do this!
Florentino Perez stared at Zhong Cheng closely, and after a while he gritted his teeth and said: "You are very good, I hope you can still be so tough in the future!"
After saying that, Florentino Perez took his people and walked away!
Watching the back of Florentino Perez leaving. Zhong Cheng smiled faintly. Zhong Cheng did not think that Florentino Perez was willing to pay a transfer fee of 200 million euros for Cristiano Ronaldo. Even if he is really willing to pay, Real Madrid fans will not agree.
200 million euros can buy a club that has always been very good, so just buy someone. This is crazy!
Therefore, Zhong Cheng is not worried about Florentino Perez at all!
Even if Florentino Perez went to Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes and asked Cristiano Ronaldo to put pressure on Leeds United, it would be of no use.
First of all, Cristiano Ronaldo still has a long contract with Leeds United. If Cristiano Ronaldo jumps out and makes trouble, the only one who will suffer is himself!
Moreover, Cristiano Ronaldo may not have any intention of leaving Leeds United and moving to Real Madrid. If it were true, he would not have chosen Leeds United in the first place, but would have directly transferred to Real Madrid.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng is not worried about Florentino Perez at all. They have no way to take Cristiano Ronaldo away from Leeds United.
