Although Mendes came in a group, the young man stood outside the door after getting out of the car, obviously to leave some private space for Tang Hong and Mendes.

After Mendes entered the living room of the villa, he glanced at the interior decoration, modern European minimalist style, not to mention taste, more in line with the aesthetics of young people nowadays.

Tang Hong naturally turned on the oversized TV, then walked to the kitchen and turned back to Mendes and asked, "Coffee?" Fruit juice? Water? Tea? ”

Mendes was surprised by Tang Hong's casualness, and he smiled: "Tea, I've heard that Chinese tea is great." ”

Tang Hong smiled: "Okay, wait a minute. ”

He went into the kitchen, and Mendes unbuttoned his suit jacket and sat down on the couch.

The TV is Portugal's sports station, which is showing highlights from the last round of the Portuguese Super League.

He saw the picture of Braga's away defeat against Setúbal, and looked at Tang Hong's figure in the TV picture with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

This World Junior MVP is really different.

This is especially true not only on the field, but also in life.

When Tang Hong returned to the living room with a complete set of moon-white milky glazed tea sets from the kitchen, Mendes was even more surprised, perhaps because Tang Hong's hospitality was full of ritual, which is very rare in young people.

Tang Hong sat on the sofa stool next to the coffee table, and it seemed that Mendes, who was sitting in the middle of the sofa, was the master, and he slowly scalded the tea set with hot water, and then brewed a pot of tea.

After pouring a glass for Mendes, Tang Hong stretched out his hand and said, "This is the West Lake Longjing sent by my friend from China." ”

The quality is naturally guaranteed, but he doesn't need to tell the other party.

Mendes tasted it and thought about it, and it was impossible to know if he liked it, but he said with an impeccable smile on the surface, "Very good." ”

"If you like it, I also have an unopened gift box here, and I will give it to you by borrowing flowers and offering Buddha."

Mendes laughed, pointed at Tang Hong with a small movement of his left hand, and said, "You are really special, very special."

I was interested in you because of your performance on the pitch, but now I think even if you're not a player, I'll like you and want to be friends with you. ”

Tang Hong smiled and turned his head to look at the picture on the TV.

The highlights of the game came to Porto, the Portuguese Super League team swept Leiria 5-2 away in the last round, Hulk did not score again, but Porto was full of talent, Kleber and James Rodriguez both scored twice!

Tang Hong retracted his gaze and smiled at Mendes: "Let's get straight to the point and talk about business, I have admired my husband for a long time, is this time to meet to sign me?" ”

Mendes was in a happy mood and nodded honestly: "That's right, if you know me, you should understand that I am not an agent who only focuses on expanding the market territory, I pay more attention to quality than the number of players, I serve elite players, and I also expect those potential new stars to go to the top stage of the green world to become the best players!" ”

This is true, according to Mendes's resources and dominance in Portugal, he was already dominant in Portugal six or seven years ago, but he will not recruit every player, the resources in his hands are roughly divided into two parts, one is the mainstay of the Portuguese Super League, these players support the backbone of the Portuguese Super League, is the foundation of the prosperity of the Portuguese football local league, and the other part is the elite, who can leave the Portuguese Super League to go to the five major leagues, go to the European first-line clubs, and go to the stars of the European giants!

He has indeed sent many players from the Portuguese Super League directly to the camp of European giants in the past decade, and the 2004 European Championship in Portugal, as well as the Portuguese side Porto in the Europa League and Champions League in succession, were an important opportunity for Mendes's career to explode and transform.

Tang Hong did not show his fascination as Mendes expected.

"Sir, until you get to know me better, I think there will be some differences between us, firstly, I don't expect to get a lot of salary in the club, as long as it is in line with my contribution and ability, more, less, it is just an inconsequential matter, secondly, I don't need someone to help me manage my wealth, when you see my villa, I think you must have a new understanding of me in your heart.

But I do have a need for an agent, and I don't want to be bothered by the media.

And if I can succeed in Braga, then I don't know where the next stop is, to be honest, I don't have a specific goal, many players have the ultimate goal of achieving glory at Real Madrid, they can proudly claim that this is the fulfillment of their childhood dream, but I'm sorry, my childhood dream was just to play professional football, to play in the top stadium and in the top competition, as for who to play, I don't have a persistent pursuit.

As I said, when I leave Braga, I need someone to advise me, someone to match me up, to put it bluntly, an agent to sell me, to give me more options, which is what I expect from my husband.

It's just that I'm not sure if my terms, Mr. will be able to agree with me. ”

Mendes listened quietly, and after listening, he took a sip of his teacup, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked: "I like honest children, you happen to be, then I will be more straightforward, do you know what the commercial value of a football star, especially a Chinese football star, is?" Over the years, there have been a lot of Chinese children in Portugal, and some companies from China who want to work with me, but I don't think the time is yet ripe, but I will look forward to one day selling my clients to China, the Chinese market is too big, and I will be cautious and avoid messing things up until I find the best way to monetize the business value, but the potential benefits are coveted enough. ”

Tang Hong put down the teacup and said: "This is the first disagreement between me and you, your thinking is to expect to create the maximum benefit return for the customer, I recognize this, but I don't urgently need it, while creating returns, the customer itself also needs to pay more, I am eager to maintain the focus on football, if I have extra time, I would rather lie on the sofa and watch TV with my family, you can understand that I lack the enterprising spirit to pursue money."

I can't fully cooperate with your business operations, which will make me earn less and it will make you less profitable. ”

Mendes was surprised in his heart, but his expression did not change, he only thought that Tang Hong lacked the concept of money, after all, looking at his villa, he knew that it was impossible to pay for the house from the salary received from Braga anyway.

Mendez put away his smile, his expression becoming a little serious.

"As a broker, my aim is to serve our clients, meet their needs and create the best possible benefits for them.

So I agree that there is a difference that you said, but I don't think it can't be resolved, we just need better communication and understanding, to be precise, I understand your needs.

Maybe I can't get the most out of you, and you can't maximize the benefits for me, but that's not the core issue.

What is the core?

I think you have a big future, and you need an agent who works for you, and to put it simply, I'll do it for you.

You don't want the media to bother, I don't arrange interviews and business events for you, and I use my resources to try to keep the media from harassing you as much as possible.

Do you expect more options in the future?

Well, when you are able to leave the Portuguese Super League, I will give you enough options to decide to go to the club you want to go to the most, and I will not interfere and influence your decision.

But I will ask for the greatest reward for you, which is your deserve and my responsibility.

In addition, if you need help in life, I will be there for you as much as I can, you just have to ask, we can be the purest employment relationship, or we can be a more trustworthy partner than friends.

Tang Hong, do you want to have a partner like me? ”

It is not for nothing that Mendes has been able to reach the height of today's European agent predator, he really does not give the outside world an extremely greedy image, and he is also pursuing a win-win result for all three parties in many transfer operations.

Compared with Raiola, another agent who is also very important in European football, Mendes's image is naturally much better!

Tang Hong poured another seven-point full of tea for the two, picked up the small moon-white teacup and raised it towards Mendes, and said with a smile: "Happy cooperation." ”

A smile appeared on Mendes' face again, and he picked up the teacup and touched the teacup in Tang Hong's hand lightly, and then the two of them drank it with a smile.
