Chinese players in Europe

Chapter 277 Negotiation ([-])

Mei Li was a little confused by Hope's words. He had seen straightforward ones, but he had never seen such straightforward ones.But after all, it is an "old rivers and lakes" who have been fighting for a long time, Meili quickly realized, smiled sarcastically, and didn't care about the embarrassment of the other party seeing that he had already prepared the contract, and went straight out of the briefcase in his hand to draft the contract , handed over.

Hope held the contract in his hand, and looked at it carefully: "The young man is 480 million after tax, the contract is signed every two years, and the player has the right to choose whether the contract expires... The development of the portrait right is done by the club and the player alone. half……"

As Hope muttered while reading, Mo Fei felt a little uneasy in his heart, and raised his head from time to time to observe Mr. Hope's reaction, but the expression of the other party remained unchanged, without any change, and he could not see the thoughts in the other party's heart.As for Meili, she looked like an old god, and didn't seem to worry about the conditions she proposed at all.

Mei Li's calm mood also infected Mo Fei, which made him feel a little calmer.In fact, he and Mr. Meri have discussed the annual salary for many times, and finally set it at 480 million after tax.This annual salary can be regarded as the salary of the first-tier players in Hoffenheim, but it is not the highest. As far as they know, Ibisevic, Salihovic and others have an annual salary of more than 500 million after tax, so their requirements It's not a wild asking price, it can only be said to be more reasonable.

According to Meili's intention, he directly offered an annual salary of 600 million yuan after tax, but after all, he has a deep affection for Hoffenheim, and he doesn't want the club to make things difficult.He thought very clearly that no matter how important he is to Hoffenheim, in the end he is just a rookie who has only landed in the Bundesliga for one season, and it is not a good thing to go too fast.If you directly get the first salary in the team, it may break the team's salary structure, and then other players will definitely put forward their own requirements according to Mo Fei's contract renewal conditions. This is not a good thing for the stability and unity of the team. .

Naturally, Meili couldn't resist Mo Fei's "thigh", and after thinking about the pros and cons, he nodded in agreement. After all, things flow forever, and if Mo Fei's reputation is more prosperous in two years, it will not be a problem to ask to revise the contract.

Just when Meili and Murphy were making eye contact, Hope had already finished reading the contract in his hand, put it on the table, and smiled again.

"How is it, Mr. Hope?" Upon seeing this, Meili asked aloud, "Hoffenheim can win the double championship this season, and it is a great contribution. Moreover, he is so young and has an unlimited future. Such a request is not too much, right?"

Hope nodded, and replied unhurriedly: "It's not too much at all, it's reasonable. With Mo's current dominance on the court and his indispensable position in the team, he is fully worthy of such a price." .”

Merry found himself at a loss for words, and Hope's approval made him ready to bargain with the other party, which was completely useless.Others said it was reasonable, but he was still negotiating with the other party!
But the more this happened, the more heavy Meili's heart became.The attitude of the other party cannot be said to be bad, but too good, which is really abnormal.He has been in the business world for decades, and he has never seen anyone discuss business like this.If something abnormal happens, it must be a demon, and there must be some hidden secrets in it.

Could it be that Meili suppressed the joyful expression on his face, cast a dignified look at the other party, and then said calmly: "Mr. Hope, in this way, you can completely accept this contract? Since the negotiation is so smooth, how about Can we sign it now?"

Generally speaking, things about contract renewal will not be so smooth, no matter how much there will be a see-saw between the club and the players for a period of time to strive for greater interests for each.However, today's situation is a bit special. Mr. Meili can only settle the matter as soon as possible. As long as both parties sign it, the contract will have legal effect. No matter how weird Hope is, things cannot be changed.

Hope really shook his head, and said slowly: "I can't sign this contract. Even if it is really necessary to modify the contract, I don't think the conditions in it are suitable."

Mei Li's eyes were fixed, indicating that he should be safe and calm, and said in a deep voice, "Didn't Mr. Hope just say that it was reasonable?"

"It's really reasonable, but..." Hope's tone was still flat, as if nothing could move him.He waved his hand, and continued, "It's okay for you to get half of the portrait rights, and the time limit for making an appointment is also okay, but what about the annual salary..."

"Mr. Hope thinks that Mo's ability is not worth the price?" Meri interjected calmly.

"Mr. Meili, what you said is exactly the opposite of what I thought..." Hope shook his head gently, and said unhurriedly, "This price is too low for Mo, who helped the team win the double championship... ... I think $600 million after tax is a pretty good number."

"What?" "600 million!"

Mo Fei and Mr. Meili were completely stunned and screamed at the same time.If Hope lowers the price, they can still negotiate with him, but the other party is taking the initiative to increase the price, and they don't know how to deal with it at all!Where in the world is there any businessman who takes the initiative to send money to the other party?If there is, then he must be crazy or his brain must be burnt out!

The two wondered if there was something wrong with their ears. Why was there something strange everywhere today, and they both fell into deep thought at the same time.

"What? Are you two not satisfied with this annual salary? Then we can discuss it again. Aren't many things resolved after discussion?" Hope continued to drop the "blockbuster".

Could it be that my head was buzzing, and I couldn't think normally.He had some doubts whether the person standing in front of him was really that amiable club owner.He really couldn't understand why Mr. Hope would take the initiative to raise the conditions for him, it was really weird.

"Mr. Hope, please state your conditions directly."

Meili came back to his senses and returned to his ordinary appearance again. He finally figured it out. There has never been a free lunch in the world. The other party's treatment is so generous, there must be other conditions.He intends to listen first, whether he can accept it or not depends on the situation, as long as it doesn't harm Mo Fei's interests.

"Sure enough, you are the best agent in the world, James, you are always so shrewd." Hope glanced at Meili with admiration, and did not answer Meili's question immediately, but sighed suddenly, slowly He walked to the window and was speechless for a long time.

"Mo, is that your girlfriend?" Hope suddenly pointed to a girl in a white dress on the court outside the window and asked.

Mo Fei got up and looked, and saw a cute and well-behaved girl playfully kicking and kicking on the lawn, it was Yu Yun.Seeing the other party's small mouth raised out of boredom, Mo Fei couldn't help but smile.

Mo Fei nodded and said, "Yes, sir."

"You have a good eye and are very beautiful." Hope praised with a smile.

Could it be that he was confused by the other party's thoughtless question, and couldn't figure out why the strange chairman in front of him suddenly asked such a question, but he still nodded to the other party, expressing his appreciation grateful.

"Do you know what it looked like under the little girl's feet 20 years ago? Mo?" Hope continued to ask, but his eyes were always on the grass outside the window, which looked remote and vicissitudes.

"I heard from Old Hongke that at that time this place was still a wasteland with potholes. But at that time, it was already the home field of Hoffenheim. My seniors trained and lived here..." Mo Fei continued to answer. The other party asked questions that were far-fetched.

"Yeah, I was also in the team at that time, but I didn't have much talent, so I went to learn business later. But the time at that time is really nostalgic, and I sometimes think about it every time we finish training. Afterwards, I would wash the jersey, trousers, and sneakers by myself, and then roast them by the fire at night, because I have to wear them for training the next day..." Hope seemed to be caught up in the memories of the past, intoxicated by himself in.

Could it be that he didn't interrupt, just quietly watching the old man who dedicated his life to Hoffenheim.Meri didn't make a sound either, he was waiting for the final answer.

"I think, I love this team, from the bottom of my heart." Hope suddenly lowered his voice, as if telling Mo Fei, or talking to himself, "No matter what I do I will stick to my decision. It is for the future of Hoffenheim."

Could it be that before he could figure out the meaning of Mr. Hope's sudden words, he saw the calm but sharp eyes of the other party sweeping towards him.

"Mo, actually I asked you to come here in person today because I don't want to be a shameless 'liar'. There are some things you have the right to know, and I don't want to delay your future."

Hope waved his hand to stop Mo Fei from interjecting, and said with a serious face: "Next season, the team may not make much moves in terms of signings. In other words, we will use the old lineup to deal with three fronts. You should know what this means What are you wearing?"

Mo Fei nodded.He is very clear that although Hoffenheim's players are very good, they are not strong after all, and it is impossible to be active in every game. Such a configuration is not enough to make a breakthrough in the European arena.

"Could it be that there is a problem with the club's finances?" Mo Fei and Meili flashed such a thought at the same time.However, this also made the two even more confused. If the team is really financially tight, how could it be possible to take the initiative to improve the treatment conditions for Mo Fei?

However, Hope's next words quickly confirmed the speculation of the two.

"Yes, there are indeed some problems with the team's finances. Some problems that make me have to make difficult choices." Hope said calmly.

"Sir, I can lower my salary requirements..." Mo Fei's heart tightened, and he said quickly despite Meili's obstruction.Hoffenheim not only gave him a stage to show his talents, but also gave him unlimited trust and help. He is always grateful.Hearing that the club is in trouble, how could he be indifferent.

"Good boy, I understand what you mean..." Hope turned his head, caressed Mo Fei's head gently like a grandfather, and sighed, "Actually, I really hope you can stay, I know very well what you mean to the future of the club what, but..."

Could it be that the uneasiness in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, like a big rock that couldn't touch the ground in his heart, and he couldn't breathe under the pressure.Yes, he was terrified!He was afraid of hearing hopeless news from Hope.
