As soon as Gao Zheng and Viviano sat down in the restaurant, he received a call from Pelle.

"It's a real agent, tsk......" Listening to Pelle's tone, he seemed to be a little dissatisfied that the other party was a real agent.

Gao Zheng smiled: "Thank you, I didn't expect you to move so fast." ”

"Of course, the faster I am, the lower your risk will be." Pelle smirked.

After putting down the phone, Viviano had already handed the menu to Gao Zheng: "Is there anything you want to order?" ”

Gao Zheng waved his hand: "I can do it, you can look at it, Mr. Viviano." ”

"Okay." Viviano didn't shirk and began to order with the menu.

After ordering, he returned the menu to the waiter, and after the waiter left, he said to Gao Zheng again: "I must once again apologize for waiting for you directly at the door." ”

"It's okay, Mr. Viviano. Thankfully, you're the only one who has come up with the idea so far. Gao Zheng said with a smile.

Viviano smiled as well, and then said, "Actually, this isn't the first time we've met, Gao Zheng. ”

"Huh?" Hearing the other party say this, Gao Zheng was surprised. "We ...... Seen it before? ”

"Yes, this is the second time I've wanted to be your agent."

"How is that possible? I've never been in contact with you before, Mr. Viviano. ”

"Yes, but you don't remember it anymore. In 2007, when you were still at AC Milan U16s, I also recommended myself to you to become your agent......

Gao Zheng frowned and fell into thought.

"But you rejected me cleanly at the time, haha!" Viviano laughed.

Hearing him say this, Gao Zheng's brows furrowed—he remembered!

There is such a thing.

At that time he was doing well at the Under-16s and was already a bit of a celebrity. After a training session, he meets a guy who claims to be an agent. But the enthusiasm of the other party made Gao Zheng sound the first-level Chinese proverb "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief", plus at that time he was full of football, and he was not very conceptual about finding an agent, so he simply rejected the other party, and didn't even ask what the other party's name was.

"It's you?" Gao Zheng, who ended his memories, stared at Viviano in front of him with wide eyes.

"Yes, it's me, I'm hitting a wall again."

Gao Zheng scratched his head a little embarrassed, although he seemed to be very arrogant when he rejected the other party at that time, he knew that he was flustered at that time, and he was actually inferior......

"I really didn't expect that you would suddenly disappear from Vismara and suddenly reappear in Sampdoria." Viviano sighed. "You rejected me at the beginning, but I've been paying attention to you. I thought it wouldn't be long before I would be making your senior debut at the San Siro......"

Gao Zheng smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect it myself." ”

"I know you're badly injured, and I know you're back from injury, but I don't know why you disappeared all of a sudden. If so, can you tell me what happened after that? Viviano asked curiously.

Gao Zheng shook his head: "Unless you are my agent, I won't tell you, sorry, Mr. Viviano." ”

Viviano was stunned for a moment and said, "I want to be your agent even more when you say that...... Wait a minute! ”

Seeing that Gao Zheng was about to open his mouth, he hurriedly raised his hand: "Even if you want to refuse, let's wait until we finish this meal, I don't want to experience another clean refusal." ”

Gao Zheng smiled, the people who had a relationship in the past met again, which also made him a little embarrassed.

"Why do you have to be my agent?" After asking this, Gao Zheng regretted it a little - this question is meaningless, and now even Raiola wants to be his agent......

But he's still ready to listen to some chicken soup for the soul.

But to his surprise, Viviano said: "The first time, of course, is because I am optimistic about your talent and future growth, and finding those talented young people and then planning their careers is what agents like us should do." But...... I just don't want you to be Raiola's player this time. ”

"Huh?" Gao Zheng didn't expect to hear such an answer. "Don't want Raiola to be my agent? Why? Do you have a vendetta against Raiola? ”

Viviano was silent for a moment, shook his head and said: "I have no enmity with him, I just don't like him, I don't think he is suitable for you, I am worried that after you find him as an agent, it will not be good for your future career." ”

"Because he is short-sighted, greedy, and domineering?" Gao Zheng asked rhetorically.

"Yes. He does have the ability to help players make a lot of money, but at the cost of sacrificing stability to grow. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is his number one player, he does what he says, and he has certainly helped Ibrahimovic become the highest-paid player in the world...... But I still have to say that if it weren't for Raiola, the Swede might have made less money, but his achievements in competition are definitely higher than they are now! ”

"I've watched your game carefully, although you're relatively thin and you're still having fitness problems, so you have to come off the bench. But both strength and fitness can be trained, ball sense and awareness are talents that cannot be replicated, and you are excellent in this area. I think a talented player like you, if Raiola is in control, his set of things will be a devastating blow to you - I don't mean it's wrong to make money, but when the young player's career is on the rise, the relationship with the club is stiff because of the salary and bonus, and the hard-won form and trust are consumed in the frequent transfers...... This is not the right path. ”

Seeing that Gao Zheng's expression had been very serious when he said this, he said again: "Maybe you will think that I am alarmist, but I am willing to swear with my personality that I am definitely not alarmist, but a future that is completely possible!" And I'm not saying that just to make you choose me as an agent. Even if you reject me again, it doesn't matter, but I hope you don't choose Raiola as your agent. ”

"So you don't really care if I choose you as an agent?"

"No, of course I do, and I very much hope that you will choose me to be your agent. But I'm not 100% sure you'll be able to choose me. If you don't choose me in the end, then I hope you don't choose Raiola too, that fat man is really not a good thing......"

Hearing Viviano's name for Raiola, Gao Zheng laughed: "You used to be a Mr. Raiola, but I think this is what you really call him, right?" ”

Viviano shook his head: "No, it's not. 'Dead fat' is what it's really called. ”

Gao Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

※※※

After dinner, Viviano drove Gao Zheng back to his apartment in a Mercedes Benz.

At the end of the farewell, Gao Zheng said to Viviano: "Mr. Viviano, you are a good person. But I think it's better to be cautious when looking for an agent, so I can't give you an answer right now. ”

"Yes, no problem, I understand." Viviano said, holding up his hands.

"I'll call you when I have a decision." Gao Zheng made a gesture to make a phone call.

"Okay, okay."

When Gao Zheng got out of the car and left, the Mercedes Benz did not leave, and Viviano kept watching Gao Zheng disappear into the apartment building.

"How's your talk?" Niccolò Togliano, who played the driver, asked, as a driver, that he was naturally not qualified to participate in the dinner just now.

"It was a great conversation."

"Isn't that a show?" Toliano excitedly twisted from the driver's seat to look at Viviano.

"I don't know...... Gao Zheng has been tight-lipped about whether to choose me as an agent, and has not revealed any tone in this regard...... "Viviano shook his head and poured cold water on his friend.

"Would he choose Raiola, then?" Toliano asked again.

"I don't think it's likely. When I said that Raiola was fat, he laughed quite happily. ”

"So we can only wait now?"

"I guess it'......"

"It's a pain to wait!" Toliano stretched.

"Go back, Niccolò. Tomorrow we will go back and return the car to Massimo. ”

"Huh? This is going back? Do not stay in Genoa and wait for news? ”

"Gao Zheng said that he would call me, and the phone can be answered anywhere, so there is no point for us here, and we waste money to book hotels."

"No longer working hard?"

"How else can you try? I've said what I need to say, and my sincerity has been expressed, what else can I do but wait for us? ”

"Okay......" Toliano had nothing more to say.

I really have to wait.

At this moment, Viviano's mobile phone suddenly rang, and the ringtone suddenly rang in the soundproofed carriage, startling both of them.

So much so that when Viviano took out his phone, his hand slipped and almost let it fall to the floor, and he had to throw the phone around with both hands like a juggler, and finally held it steady.

At this time, the caller displayed on the phone screen is......

"Gao Zheng?" Viviano exclaimed.
