People who come into contact with Ticker tend to think of him as a thug, but in fact Ticker did.

As a young man, Tickel lived on the streets. In order to make a living, he had to join a local gang.

But being sleek and delicate is exactly how Tickel survives.

As an adult, Trickel witnessed his "big brother" being taken to the police station by the police, sentenced to life imprisonment, and finally thrown into prison. He suddenly realized that if he continued like this, sooner or later he would spend the rest of his life in prison.

Desperate for freedom, Tickel had to disconnect from the local gangs as much as possible and find a regular job where he could work outside the country all year round.

As a result, Ticker became a scout for the local team.

After more than a decade of hard work, Tikel has brought back hundreds of players of all ages to the team. There are players with great skills, and there are also unlucky people who are eliminated before they can show themselves.

It can be said that although Tikel's vision as a scout is not very sharp, he knows very well what kind of people the club wants. Or rather, what kind of player does the owner want.

So while his club has been on the decline over the years, Tikel has been doing well.

Now in his thirties, Ticker is still alone. But he has a joy that no other man in his thirties has: freedom!

Now, Tickel has traveled thousands of miles to China, and he immediately fell in love with the land!

"You probably wouldn't have thought that if I had a hangover in Italy, there was a good chance that people would see a cold corpse in the street the next day; But now in China, the police will carry me to their apartment and not only give me a bed, but also a hot shower! I love China, it's the safest country I've ever been in! ”

As an Italian scout, Tickell's purpose in China was naturally not to play.

Italy doesn't even have the right to participate in the World Youth Championship this time, but it doesn't mean that the teams in Serie A don't pay attention to the talented players who have emerged in the World Youth Championship.

As the champion of the World Youth Championship, China's unexplored soil has entered the eyes of the heads of clubs at all levels of European leagues.

If you can find a good player here for a good price, it will be like finding gold.

By the way, there is no Euro or Euro who does not like gold!

After coming to China, Ticker was confident.

Because he represents a team that not only competes in Serie A, but is also the biggest team in the region, and has won the Serie A title in recent years. There is no reason why such a team with quality and heritage wants to sign an unknown East Asian player.

But when he arrived in China, Ticker was dumbfounded.

Aside from the cheap burnt knives in the bar, no one seemed to be able to understand Tickle's depressed mood.

That's when things took a turn for the better.

The FIFA-decided Top 10 match was interrupted in September, but Blatter only left a sentence of "I believe you can overcome it" and patted his ass and ignored it, which made all the European scouts who came to China feel that they had wasted their time in China.

Most European leagues have started in late August, but the Chinese team is training at this time. After the training camp, he will participate in the top 10 matches, and after participating in the top 10 games, he may be called up to participate in the Federation Cup, so that he has been in it for half a year, and it is better to come to China to try his luck in the winter transfer.

So with the exception of Manchester City, most of the other Europeans have gone home.

But Tickell's thinking is different from most, and in his view, the retreat of his rivals is the right time for him to make a move.

......

"Chu Liang, this is Ticker. Mr. Enke. The day after returning to Guangdong, Grandpa Ou led a foreigner to Ou Chuliang.

Although Ou Chuliang was very strange about the origin of the European in front of him, he still politely stretched out his hand and shook the other party. Anyway, since the other party can catch the line of grandpa, it seems that there are still some doorways.

"Hello."

"Hello."

"Chu Liang, Mr. Ticker is from Italy, and this time I came to China to find you in person." Grandpa Ou was a little embarrassed and a little secretive when he introduced.

"It's okay grandpa, leave the specific problems to me, I'll talk to him well, you don't have to worry." Ou Chuliang smiled.

Seeing that Ou Chuliang was so sensible, Grandpa Ou, who was one step behind, suddenly grabbed the corner of Ou Chuliang's clothes, and blamed himself a little on his face: "Chuliang, in fact, he just asked me to see you, and you have to decide the specific situation." If you don't want to, you can ignore him..."

"Grandpa, do you know this Mr. Ticker?" Ou Chuliang asked softly.

"I'm an old man, where do I know any foreigners!" Grandpa Ou muttered, "But when your dad went to Italy for the first time, it was thanks to his care..."

Ou Chuliang nodded, signaling Grandpa Ou not to say any more. It seems that the other party is riding his cheap father's line, but the grandfather comes forward.

The two came to the room, and after sitting facing each other, Grandpa Ou left two cups of hot tea and withdrew.

"Authentic Chinese tea, hmm~~~ is hundreds of times stronger than what I drank in Europe!" Tickel took a sip from his teacup, and unlike most Europeans, he didn't take a big sip of the tea, but took a small sip of it, feeling the aftertaste of the tea.

"It seems that Mr. Dicker knows China very well." Ou Chuliang knew that Grandpa Ou was making Longjing.

"No, no, no, I don't know anything about China." Tickel hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I just know more about food, uh... And drinks. ”

As he spoke, Tickel made a "Cheers" gesture and took another sip.

"I wonder what happened when Mr. Tickel came to me this time?"

"OU, I wanted to ask you face to face, are you interested in playing in Italy?" Seeing that Ou Chuliang got straight to the point, Ticker also put the teacup on the table and got to the point.

"I'm sorry Mr. Ticker, but I don't think you should talk to the Football Association about this? Why did you find me directly? Then Ou Chuliang pointed to the teacup in front of the other party, "And in this way." ”

"Black cats and white cats, those who can catch mice are good cats." Tickel quoted a famous Chinese saying, "For me, all the ways to achieve an end are the means." ”

"If the negotiations with your National Football Association had gone well, I wouldn't be here, would I?"

"Honestly, the players didn't even meet to talk about transfers and trades, OU, you know, it's ridiculous!"

'But as far as I know, there are also a lot of transfers in Europe where players only show up when they are signed. Ou Chuliang said unhurriedly.

"Yes, it does." "But that's when the player played in Europe for a few seasons, everybody knew him, and he just happened to have an agent." ”

"With all due respect, the Chinese Football Association shouldn't be your agent, right?"

"It's not." Ou Chuliang replied honestly.

"That's it." A smile appeared on Tickel's face, "OU, if you want, I can introduce you to a couple of agents who are all well-known names in European football. ”

"Let's talk about it when we have a chance." Ou Chuliang interrupted the other party, "Let's talk about this transfer first." ”

"OU, as you can see, my host is not only very powerful, but also very sincere." Tickel said, pulling out a large stack of team information from his briefcase, "Two Serie A titles, three Coppa Italians, one Italian Super Cup, one UEFA Cup, one Anglo-Italian League Cup. OU, I think you should know the weight of this data. ”

Ou Chuliang took the information and looked through it, and when he saw the name of the club, he knew that what the other party said was all the truth.

"But as far as I know, since the departure of Maradona, Napoli has been going downhill in the past few years." After confirming that the other party was from Serie A, Ou Chuliang's face also became serious.

"That's why we're rebuilding, we need fresh blood." Rather than deny Napoli's poor results in Serie A in recent years, Tickel said, for example, "Although we only finished 13th, you see Milan are not much better, they are only two places above us. We also reached the Coppa Italia final last season, and if it wasn't for the goalkeeper's mistake in the second leg, we would have won one more title now. ”

What Tickel said was very reasonable, Ou Chuliang nodded, and said with a straight face: "Since this is the case, then I think Mr. Tickel should be very sincere in the negotiations with the Football Association." ”

"Of course we are sincere." Hearing Ou Chuliang mention the Football Association, Tikel smiled bitterly, "It's just that the methods of your Football Association are too much, too much, and I can't accept it..."

Saying that, Tickel told what he had seen and heard at the Football Association these days.

In fact, after Ou Chuliang bitterly stated his interests, the Football Association was generally very positive about the transfer of Jianlibao.

First of all, Jianlibao's liquidated damages, the contract is there, and the amount of liquidated damages for any player leaving the team without permission is equal, so everyone has no objections; Secondly, the Football Association's "intermediary fee", the Football Association is equivalent to an "intermediary", if a European team wants to reach a "deal" with a player, it makes sense to give the Football Association a "intermediary fee".

But the third point is that the "transfer fee" of the original team has a lot more room for maneuver.

First of all, these clubs are all private properties, and under the premise that there is no clear standard for the property rights and market value of the players, the original clubs of the players are mostly lions with big mouths, and they want as much as they want.

And the Football Association actually wears the same pants with these clubs, not only the "intermediary fee" is calculated according to the proportion of the transfer fee, but the Football Association also uses their mouths to dissuade those clubs who want to steal chickens.

If you want the best players in our country, you must show enough sincerity!

After lengthy negotiations, Napoli, represented by Ticker, has agreed to other conditions of the Football Association, but no agreement has been reached on the transfer fee.

"Liaozu wants a lot?" Ou Chuliang asked tentatively.

"Isn't it just a lot? They're insane! Tickel complained.

"How poor?" Hearing this, Ou Chuliang also asked curiously.

In the past two years, Liaozu has been up and down in the B and desperately earns A, the players have been sold batch after batch, the sponsors have changed wave after wave, and the coach has changed one after another, but the results have not improved.

In the words of the person in charge of Liaozu, we are waiting for the three Jianlibao youngsters to return to the team to rush to A! You want to buy our future main and championship-winning goalkeeper, how can you do it without some blood? What's more, he is also the champion of the World Junior Championships, the World Youth Championships knows, right? That's the World Cup for young people! He is the captain of the World Cup-winning team...

Tickel said, and imitated the exaggerated appearance of the Liaozu manager, which was very funny!

And that's not all, during the negotiation, Liaozu even took out a photo of the drinking compound, looking at the familiar earthen walls and uneven open space, Ou Chuliang couldn't help but fall into memories after seeing it.

That photo is really old!

The person in charge of the other party took this opportunity to cry poor, saying that the children are still waiting for this money for youth training, and the players are still waiting for this money to pay wages.

After listening to Ticker's narration, Ou Chuliang also smiled wryly.

Liaozu is poor and crazy, and his appearance is a little ugly. But those who invest in football clubs are for money, and they are certainly not doing charity!

According to Ou Chuliang's understanding, Liaozu still owes a lot of players' wages, and the club even wants to take advantage of the reason to change the owner and investors to take advantage of this part of the money.

"How much does Liaozu cost?" Ou Chu asked curiously.

Ticker held out an index finger, and before Ochhurian could react, he held out another one.

"At first they asked for a million, now it's two million."

“RMB？”

"That's right."

Ou Chuliang also breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately they didn't know what the pound was.

Since the professionalization of A A, Li Bing has been the first transfer bid king, with a transaction price of 640,000; Last year, A A transferred, and Wang Tao became the 96-year-old bidder with a value of 660,000 yuan.

Now Liaozu A and B teams will open their mouths for two million, which is simply a lion's mouth.

Ou Chuliang sighed, but also couldn't help but feel sad for Liaozu.

The players are good players and the coaches are good coaches, but the people in charge and the bosses are vampires.

It was for this reason that Ticker thought of finding a different way to listen to Ouchulian himself.

If Achurion had made concessions on the right to sign, portrait fees, etc., Napoli might have agreed.

Through his own channels, Ticker learned that Adidas and several well-known companies in the world were very interested in Acchulian. If the transfer of Acchulian is successful, Napoli will make money from these capitalists.

Although the people in charge of Liaozu don't know much about this, they have a natural acumen for money as businessmen. Their instincts tell them that if they don't take the opportunity to make a hard stroke, they will definitely regret it in the future.

And in the final analysis, Naples also values the commercial interests of Ouchulian.

Ou Chuliang didn't squeak after hearing this, if Liaozu really opened his mouth in this regard, he really couldn't buy himself with his current savings.

In this era, there is no standard, basically what the club says. If the contract with Liaozu expires, it will have to be after the millennium.

Speaking of this, Ou Chulian fell into deep thought.

Whatever the reason for Ticker and Napoli to look at them, the one point that Tickel mentioned is very appealing to Acchulian is that Napoli have agreed to make concessions on appearance.

There is no restriction on players returning to their home countries to participate in cup competitions, which is a clear requirement of FIFA. Although some big clubs are against the law, this matter is mainly based on the national team after all.

Coupled with the fact that China has never reached the World Cup finals, the importance of the top 10 is self-evident, so it makes sense for Napoli to agree to this rule.

The Confederations Cup can be regarded as a rehearsal for the World Cup, and Ladd must also attach great importance to it. Being able to play against a world-class team in such a cup competition is the best opportunity to test the team's ability, so Ou Chuliang will most likely be recalled to China.

So what Ou Chuliang didn't expect was that the Football Association's "lion opened his mouth", but Napoli also agreed.

With no less than 20 games played in a single season, this is a huge attraction for a goalkeeper who has just arrived in Europe.

For Serie A, which has only 38 rounds of matches per season, 20 games are already halfway through. And the goalkeeper is a special position, and it is rare to change the goalkeeper at the last moment of the game to kill time. So as long as Ou Chuliang plays, he is almost a starter.

Of course, these 20 matches also include friendlies, Coppa Italia and possible European competitions, but for a newcomer to Europe, it is already extremely valuable!

After all, Napoli is a Serie A team, and at this stage, Serie A, known as the mini-World Cup, represents the highest level of football in the world.

For a moment, the conversation reached a stalemate.

After seeing that Ou Chulian was deep in thought, Tikel also knew each other and took his leave decisively. After all, meeting with Ou Chuliang in this way, he also felt a little abrupt.

That night, before Ou Chuliang went to bed, Grandpa Ou came to Ou Chuliang's room and asked, "How is Chuliang?" Want to go or not? If you don't want to go, forget it, grandpa will refuse him for you. ”

"It's okay." Ou Chuliang scratched his head, "Although I don't know much about the situation in Naples, the other party's sincerity is very strong. If I can play a higher level of competition in Serie A, I would be happy to accept it. ”

"So you want to go?" Grandpa Ou asked.

"If conditions permit, it's not impossible to go to Italy for a while." Ou Chuliang thought for a moment and replied.

"Okay, I see." Grandpa Ou muttered thoughtfully, "Grandpa promised you a long time ago about this matter, so don't worry, grandpa will help you take care of the rest." ”

"Eh, grandpa, you..."

After Grandpa Ou finished speaking, without waiting for Ou Chuliang's reaction, he turned off the light and exited the room.

A week later, "Liaoshen Evening News" suddenly released a bombshell, which blew up all Liaoning fans: "Shuangxing suddenly withdrew its investment, and Liaozu changed hands again." ”
