Chapter 1395 Special Signings

Jiang Xiaochen stopped quickly and looked at Xia Ruofei with a hopeful look.

After being persuaded by Ruby, Jiang Xiaochen actually hoped to facilitate this seemingly crazy thing.

Zhou Leiyun hurriedly said: "Mr. Xia, don't you really want to join the club as a player? This...this is a bit pricey..."

In fact, becoming a professional player is definitely not a price drop. How many football stars have a large number of fans around the world! It's just that in Zhou Leiyun's opinion, Xia Ruofei is already a successful entrepreneur, and he has a great background in China. In addition to these factors, Xia Ruofei will feel a bit "reversing" when he goes to become a professional player.

Xia Ruofei laughed and said: "What's the price of this? President Zhou, you should know who played Serie A in the early years? Gaddafi's third son! 'Prince' can be a professional player. It's okay for the boss to play professional football!"

Jiang Xiaochen asked in surprise when he heard the words: "Mr. Xia, do you agree?"

Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment and said, "I agree with this matter in principle, but some details need to be discussed. After all, it is impossible for me to train and compete with the team all year round."

"No problem!" Jiang Xiaochen said hurriedly, "You can raise whatever conditions you have! Coach Ruby's original intention was to treat you as a surprise soldier, not to make you a regular main force or a substitute."

Xia Ruofei thought about it and said, "First of all, I definitely can't be on Barcelona's side all the year round. The number of games that I can play is limited. If the coaching staff needs to include me in the game list, they must notify me in advance, and ask for my approval. Yes, I have the right to refuse to play."

In exchange for any professional player, even a big player like Messi and Ronaldo, it is impossible to make such a request, because it is a question of reflecting the attitude of a professional player. But even if Xia Ruofei joins the team, he belongs to the "professional" professional player, and he must not be measured by the standard of professional players.

"Of course there's no problem with that! Coach Ruby means the same thing, and the coaching staff will definitely respect your personal wishes!" Jiang Xiaochen said without hesitation.

"Secondly, the clubs operate the registration of players. I will join the team for free as a free agent, and I don't need a penny for the signing fee. In addition, I don't need a salary, and I will play for the club for free." Xia Ruofei Said, "But the contract must also state that my ownership belongs to me personally, the club can no longer sell me to other clubs, and I have the right to suspend the contract at any time."

When Zhou Leiyun heard it, he quickly said: "Mr. Xia, this is not possible! Since you joined the team for free, according to the convention, the club must give you a personal signing fee.

And since you signed with the club, how can you not get paid? "

Xia Ruofei smiled and waved his hand and said: "I'm different from ordinary professional players, it's just a ticket. Even if I sign a contract with a club, I can't play a few games a year, and I won't even be in Spain most of the time. The contribution of the club is very limited, and the signing fee and salary are not needed. Besides, I am a shareholder of the club myself, this is not a left pocket for a right pocket! There is no need. "

"That's not the same. Even if you have limited playing time, it is possible that every time you play, you will bring goals worth a thousand dollars!" Zhou Leiyun said seriously, "A player's contribution to the team is never through playing time. Measured! At least not only measured by this indicator. And although you are a shareholder, you only have more than 20% of the shares! How can you change the left pocket for the right pocket! There should be something!"

Xia Ruofei said with tears in his eyes: "Mr. Zhou, it's really unnecessary, and I don't need that much money. And I'll be hot for three days of fishing and two days of netting, so don't argue with me. !"

At this time, Jiang Xiaochen said weakly: "Mr. Xia, Boss Zhou, I have a suggestion. Since Boss Xia insists on no salary, and Boss Zhou feels that we can't let Boss Xia work in vain, then let's just compromise, as long as If Mr. Xia enters the match list, the club will give him an appearance fee. If Mr. Xia appears in the game, the appearance fee will be increased by another amount. If Mr. Xia scores in the game, he will be given another one. The bonus amount can also be divided into steps. The more the key game that has a significant impact on the trend of the entire season, the higher the bonus.

In addition, if the club achieves various achievements at the end of the season, such as successfully avoiding relegation, entering European competitions, or entering the first round of the King's Cup, a bonus amount is stipulated. If Mr. Xia won some official personal honors, such as the official selection of the best player in a single game, the top ten goals in a single round, the top ten goals in the season, etc., another bonus will be issued. In short, use bonuses instead of salary, and list the terms carefully.

This bonus is floating, and is generally distributed according to the size of the contribution. This will not make President Xia feel that he is getting something for nothing, and it will not make him contribute to the club for free. What do you two think of my proposal? "

Zhou Leiyun's eyes lit up and said, "Don't say it... Xiaochen's idea is a bit interesting! Xiaochen, just do it! Write it in the contract at that time! The various bonus items are listed in more detail, and the standard is higher! It is formulated with reference to the standards of top stars! After all, Xia always plays football with zero salary, and it is a bit unreasonable if the bonus is not set a little higher!"

Xia Ruofei couldn't help laughing and crying. His original intention was not to pay a penny. When the team really needed it, it was a simple thing to help play a game or two, but Zhou Leiyun made simple things complicated. melted.

However, Xia Ruofei did not reject Zhou Leiyun's kindness, but nodded helplessly in agreement.

Jiang Xiaochen said happily: "I understand, Mr. Zhou! After you have settled on the specific terms, I will bring them to you and Mr. Xia to review! Also... The conditions that Mr. Xia just mentioned are all right, you can write them all down. In the contract. President Xia, do you have any other requirements?"

Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment and said, "That's all I can think of for the time being. By the way, please also tell Coach Ruby that although I am a shareholder of the club, if he puts me on the roster, I won't be able to play, what will it be? It's up to him to decide when to play! Don't worry about my identity. In addition... the coach is the main player during the game. Even if I sit on the bench, I won't interfere with his game. command."

"Okay! Okay!" Jiang Xiaochen said quickly, "I will tell Coach Ruby! President Xia, thank you again!"

Xia Ruofei waved his hand with a smile and said, "I'm also doing this for the club... I have a chance to qualify for the European competition this season! I hope my joining will help the team!"

Jiang Xiaochen said: "It will definitely be! President Xia, President Zhou, then I will leave first!"

Xia Ruofei nodded, then Jiang Xiaochen would be busy next. Xia Ruofei's registration as a player and the formulation of specific contracts involve very tedious work.

However, Jiang Xiaochen's efficiency is still very high. In just three days, the team of the Espanyol Club is also very professional, and the registration is quickly settled. At the same time, the contract specially tailored for Xia Ruofei was also taken out and presented to Xia Ruofei and Zhou Leiyun .

The requirements put forward by Xia Ruofei were written into the contract in plain text.

In terms of bonuses, as long as Xia Ruofei enters the match roster, the club pays 50,000 euros for each game; if he is on the bench, the appearance fee will become 80,000 euros; if he starts, the appearance fee will be increased to 100,000 euros.

If Xia Ruofei scores in the game, each goal will receive a goal bonus of 100,000 euros, and this is still the basic bonus. If he scores in important games such as derby battles and relegation battles, it will change the result of the game. For goals, there will be a rise on the basis of 100,000 euros, and the highest percentage of rise is 200%, which is 200,000 euros.

In addition, if the team reaches some milestones, Xia Ruofei will also receive corresponding rewards, such as successful relegation, a bonus of 100,000 euros; entering the Europa League qualifying round, a bonus of 200,000 euros, entering the Europa League main game, and an additional 100,000 euros Ou, after entering the main game, there are still different milestones, such as qualifying from the group, the quarter-finals, the semi-finals... Until the championship is won, there will be additional rewards if there is no further progress. In general, if the team wins the Europa League next season for the first time Cup champion, Xia Ruofei will receive a milestone bonus of 1 million euros in this event, which does not include appearance fees, goal bonuses, etc. during the game.

Of course, the probability of such a thing happening is very low. Now the Espanyol is still struggling near the relegation line, and the hope of entering the Europa League qualifiers next season is very slim.

There are other milestones, such as winning the top few in the league, which stipulates the corresponding level of bonuses. If you win the league championship, there will be a grand prize of 10 million euros. In Xia Ruofei's view, it is purely to make the contract more rigorous, with Barcelona , Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and other teams, with the current strength of the Spaniards, their probability of winning the league championship in recent years is infinitely close to zero.

In terms of personal achievement, there are also very detailed bonus terms.

For example: being selected as the best team in the official selection of the current round, with a bonus of 50,000 euros; being officially selected as the best player on the spot, with a bonus of 50,000 euros; scoring a goal as the official top ten goals of the current round, with a bonus of 50,000 euros; being selected as the best player of the season The lineup, the bonus is 200,000 euros; the goal is selected as the official top ten goals of the season, and the bonus for each goal is 100,000 euros, etc., and so on.

When Xia Ruofei saw these bonus terms, he felt a little dizzy, and he felt that the bonus was set too high. He originally wanted to play tickets and help the Espanyol by the way. He didn't want to make money through this. Now The standards of these bonuses are close to those of the world's top stars.

Xia Ruofei proposed to Zhou Leiyun to lower the amount of bonuses, but Zhou Leiyun firmly rejected it. He thought that Xia Ruofei had not charged the signing fee and salary, and the bonus might be higher, it was simply an insult to Xia Ruofei, and Xia Ruofei's ability was even worse. match. If this is the case, the Espanyol Club would rather not sign Xia Ruofei.

Seeing Zhou Leiyun's firm attitude, Xia Ruofei could only reluctantly accept the bonus terms of this top player's standard.

As for the other contents of the contract, it was the same as what Xia Ruofei proposed at the time. After a brief look, he signed his name readily.

From this moment on, Xia Ruofei nominally became a professional football player under the Espanyol club.

Of course, his "professional football player" is not "professional" at all, he doesn't even participate in the team's daily training, and he doesn't stay in Spain most of the time, only when the team needs it and he himself If I agree, I will fly over to help play a few games.

Xia Ruofei specifically instructed Jiang Xiaochen not to hold a press conference, not to hold a fan meeting, or even to announce his joining the team on the official website when he joined the Espanyol team, and to keep a low profile as much as possible.

Of course, although the official website is not announced, Xia Ruofei still needs to choose a jersey number, and this jersey number must also be recorded in advance.

No. 7, No. 9, No. 10, No. 11, the jersey numbers that symbolize the main players in the midfield and frontcourt already have owners. Wu Lei joined Espanyol in the winter window, wearing the No. 24 jersey.

Xia Ruofei didn't pay much attention to jerseys, so he simply ordered a No. 25 jersey next to Wu Lei.

This made Wu Lei a little embarrassed. Other players may not know about this extremely strange signing, but Wu Lei was close to the water and got the first month, and he already knew about it.

Wu Lei felt that he took the No. 24 jersey, and Brother Xia was still behind him. It was really inappropriate, so he even offered to exchange numbers with Xia Ruofei. Anyway, his favorite was No. 7. When Iglesias, the main center of the Spaniards, was still in the team, this number must have missed him. Since he can't get his favorite number, there is no difference between No. 24 and No. 25 for him.

However, Xia Ruofei firmly refused. Wu Lei's jersey number has already been announced. The joining ceremony was held not long ago and this jersey was displayed. It has only been a few days to change the number. Domestic fans still don't know what to think. !

And Xia Ruofei wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible. Although he couldn't keep a low profile after the game, it would definitely cause a wave of heated discussions, but before that, he didn't want to attract too much attention.

It's just that there is no airtight wall in the world. To become a player of the Espanyol club, Xia Ruofei must be registered with the Spanish Football Association. Soon the media discovered that the Espanyol club silently introduced a frontcourt player. The registered name is The player of "xia ruofei" looks like a Chinese player from the name, and the jersey number is only one difference from the Chinese player Wu Lei who joined a few days ago, which is naturally fascinating.

Soon, some sports media in Spain, including "Daily Sport", "Marca", etc., reported the incident in their respective newspapers...
