The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 424
"You are crazy!"

In the luxurious guest room of the Bulgari Hotel, which is known as the most luxurious in London, Mijatovic is furiously pointing at Eliza? Moon yelled.

This hotel is next to the south of Hyde Park, next to Harrods department store. The decoration style of each room is designed by a professional designer, especially the deluxe room, which costs as much as 850 pounds a night. If converted into RMB In other words, it is equivalent to [-] yuan, which is the most expensive luxury hotel in London.

Of course, money is not at all important to Mr Mijatovic, who travels on official expenses.

"I have to remind you, Mr. Mijatovic." Although she was pointed at, Eliza was not angry at all, her voice was soft and soft, "Luther is indeed 30 years old and will soon He is 31, but he won the Premier League and European Golden Boot last season, and so far, his state is still very good, and it is not a problem to continue to maintain this state."

When Eliza said this, she smiled faintly again, but this smile was somewhat sneering in Mijatovic's eyes.

"I believe you know better than me. In a world where even Pepe can sell for 3000 million euros, and a 29-year-old Henry who has been injured for more than half a year and has obviously started to decline is worth more than 2000 million, I think Ruud van Nistelrooy 4000 million euros is totally justified."

The transfer market this summer is indeed a bit outrageous. From Manchester United signing Nani and Anderson at a price of more than 2000 million euros, to Real Madrid signing Pepe at 3000 million euros, the entire transfer market has followed suit. , Almost as long as there is a little bit of fame, the transfer fee is easily 2000 million.

"It is impossible for us to pay such a high transfer fee for a 31-year-old veteran!" Mijatovic said to Elisa Moon with certainty. The membership fee is higher, and the salary can be lowered appropriately. On the whole, Real Madrid's contribution will not be too outrageous.

Who is Ke Fanny?

The No. [-] center in the world, especially after winning the Golden Boot last season, he once again holds the position of the current chief center. For such a player, especially considering his age, it is almost impossible for him to cut his salary Yes, then Real Madrid paid too much, even ridiculously large.

"Then we have nothing to talk about!" Eliza stood up when she heard him say that, "I think there will be someone who is more sincere than you!" After finishing speaking, Eliza left.

Mijatovic watched the woman walk out of the room, clenched his fists heavily and thumped the soft sofa. He obviously felt that he was underestimated. He even felt that Eliza Moon's asking price for AC Milan and Inter Milan Certainly not that high.

According to the information obtained by Mijatovic, Inter Milan’s psychological price for Van Nistelrooy is around 2000 million euros, which is 500 million euros behind Tottenham Hotspur, so he originally wanted to pay 500 euros. Ruud van Nistelrooy was bought at a price of around [-] yuan, but now it seems that Tottenham Hotspur seems to be sitting on the ground and starting the price.

This is also a very normal thing. No matter when, Real Madrid buys people will be slaughtered, but in the Calderon period, this phenomenon has become more and more outrageous, mainly because they lack connections, connections and means. .

At the beginning when Mohamed Diarra was introduced from Lyon, the first quotation offered by Lyon chairman Aulas to others was 800 million euros, but when Real Madrid intervened, Mohamed Diarra's value skyrocketed and he directly called out 3000 million euros. It was a negotiation all the way, but in the end it only talked about 600 million euros.

Almost all teams now regard Real Madrid as being taken advantage of and slaughtered as a big fat sheep.

Even Mijatovic sometimes feels that one of the important reasons why Florentino is only willing to buy the most expensive player is that since buying cheap first-class players will be slaughtered, I would rather buy the most expensive player. Yes, even if you are slaughtered, you can use the influence and appeal of superstars to recoup the cost.

"Hey, Ramon!" Mijatovic called Real Madrid President Calderon, "The talk is broken!"

"What's going on?" Calderon lost his voice on the phone. He just shouted in the national newspaper two days ago that he would definitely win Ruud van Nistelrooy. Now his general manager actually told him that the negotiation had collapsed?

Mijatovic really wants to say, you have made a big mouth in the newspaper, so that now everyone knows that we must buy Van Nistelrooy, let the other party raise the price, and you come to ask me what's going on?But he knew very well that with Calderon's current temper and character, if he said that, the two would definitely have a falling out, so he held back.

"Tottenham Hotspur started the price sitting on the floor. They offered Inter Milan 500 million, but they offered us 4000 million euros, and I talked with their CEO for more than an hour. Yes."

In Ye Qiu's previous life, some people said that Calderon and Mijatovic made black money in player transfers. It's hard to say whether there is, but the operation is very difficult, and relatively speaking, the risk is not small. After all, the transfer Faced with many clubs and intermediate operators, it is difficult to keep complete confidentiality, and the operation and negotiation techniques of the two are indeed very clumsy.

Relatively speaking, they earn more from the authorization of portrait rights for clubs and stars than in the transfer market. Just imagine, in just three or four years, the brand value can be ranked first in the football world. The No. [-] Real Madrid brand's reputation has plummeted, which shows how much Real Madrid's brand has been ruined by them over the years, and the money they made from it is definitely an astonishing figure.

Of course, this is not just Calderon and Mijatovic, but also the entire operational team behind them. Isn't this the reason and purpose of their support for Calderon to run for office?

Calderon was silent on the phone for a while, thought for a while, and said, "Let's talk!"

"Still talking?" Mijatovic was a little surprised. The other party offered a price of 4000 million euros and still refused to budge. Still talking?

"We must introduce a superstar this summer, we can do without Ruud Ruud, but we need other superstars, what do you think?" Calderon asked in turn.

The meaning is obvious, as you said, if they want a superstar, they will give them a superstar, and now I can be ashamed, but you have to give me a superstar, look at the current football world, you go find it, as long as there is a superstar who can replace Ruud van Nistelrooy, I will Just agree.

Mijatovic is in a bit of a difficult situation, because there are many top football stars, but basically they are already famous players. The possibility of convincing the opponent to let them go is very low, especially the forward. It's very valuable. Everyone knows that Real Madrid wants to introduce a powerful striker. Who wouldn't start the price?

Only now did Mijatovic truly feel a principle in the transfer market.

The transfer fee of a player does not depend on whether he has such value, but on how much you need him!

Ye Qiu was very proud. He even put Tottenham Hotspur on an equal footing with Real Madrid. Real Madrid came with the general manager, so he arranged for the CEO to negotiate. A slight to the management of Real Madrid.

Thinking of this, Mijatovic sighed deeply. Being the general manager of Real Madrid is indeed impressive, but the problem is that it brings a lot of pressure. Sometimes, he doesn't even have to choose.

After hanging up Calderon's phone, he called Eliza Moon again, expressing the hope that the negotiations will be held tomorrow, but he hoped that Tottenham Hotspur could further show sincerity, and Real Madrid would also consider it appropriately Interest for Tottenham Hotspur.

This is also an atmosphere that Tottenham Hotspur has been deliberately using the media to create in the past period, that is, Ruud van Nistelrooy is the guarantee of the team's scoring and the most important star of the team. The club will never let anyone go. And other teams that are interested in Van Nistelrooy naturally have only one option, to use money to poach corners.

As more than half of June has passed, the curtain of the Copa America is about to begin. The eyes of the media all over the world are focused on Venezuela in South America. Tottenham Hotspur also specially arranged a scout team, led by Peter Devi Searle led the team to Venezuela to investigate this Copa America.

There are also many Tottenham Hotspur players representing the national team in the Copa America. Marcelo, Alves and Thiago Silva of the Brazilian national team have all been selected for the Copa America squad. Manchester United teenager Anderson was also selected.

This is also because several superstars including Ronaldinho and Kaka failed to enter the Copa America roster, so this year's Brazilian national team, Dunga still hopes to inspect the players more.

Lionel Messi and Mascherano from the Argentine national team, Cavani from Uruguay, Vargas from Peru, and Tottenham Hotspur have a total of seven players participating in this year's Copa America, and Ye Qiu also made an early start. Inform these players that after the America's Cup, they will also have two weeks of rest before going to the team for training.

However, the transfer pace of Tottenham Hotspur has not slowed down because of the approach of the Copa America. On June 6, Tottenham Hotspur's official website announced that the team had acquired Saguaro from Croatia at a price of 18 million euros. Greb Dinamo introduced midfielder Luka Modric.

Almost at the same time, Arsenal also announced the introduction of striker Eduardo Da Silva from Dinamo Zagreb for 750 million euros, while Manchester City introduced Dina Zagreb for 600 million euros Mount defender Joel Luka.

For a time, the entire central axis of Dinamo Zagreb was emptied by the top three of the Premier League. The whole of Europe was amused by the poaching of the Croatian giants by the three Premier League teams, and they even joked. It is said that this is a looting from the Premier League, which completely crippled Dinamo Zagreb.

But two days after this transfer was announced, Tottenham Hotspur once again announced a surprising transfer. The team's main center Dutch striker Ruud Van Nistelrooy finally paid 500 million euros. , Breaking the record set by Batistuta when he moved to Rome in 2000, he switched to La Liga giants Real Madrid.

This is definitely an earthquake-level transfer, at least no one can believe that Real Madrid will pay such a high transfer fee for Van Nistelrooy, because no one can guarantee that Van Nistelrooy's peak state last season can still be achieved. How long to keep it, after all he will be 31 years old in July.

But when announcing this transfer, Real Madrid's chairman Calderon and general manager Mijatovic have repeatedly stated that Ruud van Nistelrooy is in a very good state, and the arrival of the Dutchman can greatly strengthen Real Madrid's striker Lethality.

"We all know that Batistuta used to be the transfer record of players over 30 years old in world football, but now this record belongs to Ruud van Nistelrooy, because we believe that Ruud van Nistelrooy's current state and strength are better than those of Barcelona at that time. Tistuta is even better!"

Ruud van Nistelrooy, who went to Madrid, Spain for the medical examination and joining ceremony, expressed his gratitude to Tottenham Hotspur in an interview. He believed that he had reached the pinnacle of his career in Tottenham Hotspur. Take care and trust him, but he also hopes that he can reach a higher level in Real Madrid.

"I am very grateful to Tottenham Hotspur, but I belong to Real Madrid now. I hope to score more goals for Real Madrid in the new season, because I feel that I am in a very good state now. There is a very strong desire to score goals.”

Coach Schuster also said that the arrival of Van Nistelrooy can greatly strengthen Real Madrid's frontcourt attack power. He firmly believes that the frontcourt of Van Nistelrooy, Raul, Robinho, Robben, van der Vaart and Sneijder The combination of attacks will make Real Madrid's frontcourt invincible.

"In the new season, we will play an offensive storm, we will make all the Bernabéu fans happy, and we will win all games and titles!"

At the same time, Real Madrid also announced the introduction of Heinze from Chelsea and paid 1000 to [-] million euros to Chelsea. This is also a signal that Real Madrid will further strengthen the team's defense after deciding to let go of Roberto Carlos .

After Ruud van Nistelrooy announced his landing in La Liga, Arsenal also announced that Henry would switch to Barcelona at a price of 400 million euros, but Wenger used the money to introduce da Silva, Las Diasni The Spanish star Reyes, who was loaned to Real Madrid last season, was sent to Atletico Madrid by Wenger.

When Atletico Madrid introduced Reyes, they also transferred the top scorer in the team, the Spanish golden boy Torres, to the Red Army Liverpool for 600 million euros. This is the highest transfer fee record so far this summer. Liverpool's generosity is somewhat amazing.

But at the same time, Liverpool also acquired winger Ryan Babel from Ajax for a transfer fee of 400 million euros, which can be increased up to 700 million euros. It is very eye-catching, especially the offensive line of this team, which is even more exciting.

Perhaps feeling that competitors are scrambling to sign in, after Chelsea sold Heinze, they also introduced winger Malouda from Ligue [-] to further strengthen the team's wing attack, which made Manchester United, the defending champion, also feel When the pressure comes, continue to strengthen negotiations with West Ham United and strive to win Carlos Tevez before the Copa America.

But West Ham United does not seem to have such a desire. They prefer to negotiate after the Copa America is over, because for a player like Carlos Tevez, as long as he performs well in the Copa America, his value will definitely skyrocket.

Carlos Tevez, who is in Venezuela, expressed the hope that West Ham United can reach an agreement with Manchester United as soon as possible. A vital part of the team.

When other competitors are signing in a lot, attracting fans all over the world to marvel at the wealth of Premier League clubs, Tottenham Hotspur has changed its pride of squandering over [-] million last season and has become a bit stingy.

After selling Van Nistelrooy, the team got 500 million euros, but the introduction of Modric only cost 1000 million, plus Ramsey, it was only 200 million, and the rest was 2000 million The transfer fee of tens of thousands of euros is in hand, and this doesn't even take into account Ye Qiu's budget for additional transfer fees.

But when all the Tottenham Hotspur fans were looking forward to it, Ye Qiu said in an interview that the team will not introduce any more forwards because he believes that the current team's forwards have already Enough for any challenge.

"Yes, there is no doubt that Luther's departure is a huge loss for us. We lost the most important scorer of last season, but I have always said that we are not a one-man team. It is an overall style of play, we also have Van Persie, Cavani and Carroll in our team, they are all very good strikers with great potential."

"In the new season, we will try to adjust the team's offensive style of play. I believe that everyone will see a Tottenham Hotspur that is very different from last season, and we will become more powerful. attack power."

For Ye Qiu's promise, the media and fans have mixed opinions. Many people think that Ye Qiu has started to follow Abramovich's tightening of money, but there are also many Tottenham Hotspur fans who agree, because in the past The total investment in the establishment of Theobald training base in the past year has exceeded 8000 million euros.

This is the most advanced and complete training base in the world, and it is also recognized by fans as the most beautiful training base. Therefore, for Tottenham Hotspur fans, as long as the team's performance can be guaranteed to be stable, no additional investment will be made for the time being, but When it comes to investing in team hardware, it's all understandable.

In Ye Qiu's view, apart from the introduction of young players such as Modric, Ramsey, and Neymar, Ruud Ruud's income has been invested in Theobald's training base, which can just fill up for Theobald's training base. The funding gap for the establishment of the youth training area of ​​the base saves the financial pressure on Tottenham Hotspur.

Therefore, from construction to completion of Theobald Training Base, Tottenham Hotspur didn't invest much at all, and it all relied on the operation of the transfer market and the difference in the price earned from the transfer and sale of players. .

But such a training base makes the overall market value of Tottenham Hotspur at least [-] million higher. Buying Tottenham Hotspur, don't even think about it without [-] million.

In just one year, Tottenham Hotspur has undoubtedly amazed all the investors in the world from the acquisition of [-] million yuan to the market value of [-] million yuan. The operation and operation of Ye Qiu and Eliza Moon The wrist is also amazing.
