Andrea Viviano and a few of his agent friends sat in the café as usual, sipping delicious coffee, chatting and exchanging information with each other.

For example, what type of player does a team need, what position does it need, if you don't have the right player here, you can also share this information with others, maybe other agents just have the right person?

In this way, everyone can find more opportunities and facilitate more transactions.

Initially, this was proposed by Viviano, and the reason for the proposal was precisely because Viviano missed a deal due to poor information. Later, he wondered how he could survive in a highly competitive market environment with small brokers like himself who were not well-known and had limited connections in Italy.

You must know that many brokers are not even full-time, and often have other jobs, after all, there are not many opportunities for small brokers, and it is good to be able to succeed two or three times a year, and behind these two or three successful transactions, there are countless times of hard work, negotiation, see-sawing, and ripping, and then finally return home. All expenses incurred during this period are often out-of-pocket.

In addition, if something goes wrong with the players under his management, he also needs to deal with the agent, and these problems often require money.

If there were no other sources of income, I am afraid that if I only relied on this one job, I would have starved to death.

If we can unite these small brokers and share resources and intelligence, will it be possible to make it easier for many businesses that were difficult to do before?

With this in mind, Viviano and his very good broker friends set up such an organization together. If you usually find out what information, and it happens that other brokers in the organization are suitable for operation, you can share it with everyone, and others will also introduce the opportunity to you.

If everyone is not busy, they will come out about one day a week to get together to enhance their feelings and understanding, and to exchange information that is not very urgent.

The organizers do not charge any fees from these exchanges, nor are they responsible for discerning the authenticity of the news, and even the coffee money is paid separately, which can be said to be very loose.

Since it's an organization, it has to have a name, even if it's loose.

Viviano originally wanted to call this agent organization "The Avengers", which means revenge on super agents like Raiola, because Raiola broke the rules of the market, destroyed the relationship between the agent and the club, and his high-flying and domineering practices also caused public opinion and stigmatized the agent. Nowadays, when everyone mentions player agents, the impression of "vampires" and "maggots" will come to mind, which is very detrimental to the development of agents.

But the others didn't agree with the name and felt that it was too shameful, so the organization ended up being called the "Brokers' Roundtable" because the coffee table happened to be round......

Viviano was quite critical of this featureless name, but in the vote, the "Avengers" he proposed was defeated by the "Brokers Roundtable" with a disparity of 1:6, and even if he was the founder of the organization, he had no way to disobey the will of the people, so he could only accept the name with grievances.

There wasn't much valuable information to share and exchange at today's roundtable, so everyone quickly chatted about idle days.

"Alas, what a bad luck!" Niccolò Toliano sighed, as if something was bothering, and his appearance immediately attracted everyone's interest.

"What's wrong, Niccolò? Did something bad happen? ”

At first, it was a more concerned tone, but when Viviano joined the conversation, the style of painting changed: "yes, yes, let's be happy!" ”

"Haha!"

Amid the laughter, Toliano glared at Viviano.

"I was going to get in touch with that Chinese genius in Sampdoria, but I was preempted by that bastard Raiola!" said Niccolò Togliano, an agent from Genoa.

"That high? Niccolò are you thinking too much, right? Even if there is no Raiola, why do people fancy you? You know, Andrei found him much earlier than you, and he was rejected differently? ”

Someone looked at Andrea Viviano.

What he said was an old thing - as early as when Gao Zheng played for the AC Milan junior team, Viviano had already contacted Gao Zheng, hoping to become Gao Zheng's agent, but Gao Zheng was very simply rejected at that time.

Viviano, who was under everyone's gaze, had a serious expression: "That dead fat man has become Gao's agent?" ”

"No, the media reported that the two sides were only in contact...... But since they have all been contacted, is there still suspense in the result? How many players have been able to turn down an offer from Italy's biggest agent? As far as I know, many agents who have the same idea as me have withdrawn because of this news......"

"Since you haven't been sure, you shouldn't give up, are you all scared out of that dead fat man?" Viviano said.

"Hey, Andrey, don't talk nonsense. It's not that I'm scared, but I don't want to do useless work, wasting money and energy to give Raiola a stepping stone. Toliano said dissatisfied.

"It's just, I'm going to be laughed at by Raiola in the end, saying that I can't do it or something......" The others also spoke for Togliano.

But Viviano stared into Togliano's eyes: "Niccolò, are you sure you don't have the idea of playing high?" ”

"What?"

"If you're sure, then I'll go find Gao."

"Are you crazy, Andre?" This time everyone else exclaimed. "That's Raiola!"

"That's why I call us 'The Avengers.'" With that, Viviano drank the coffee on the table, then put the cup back on the table and got up to leave.

"I'm sorry guys, I'll go back as soon as I go."

Looking at his whirlwind back leaving, the group of people hadn't reacted yet.

"This ...... Didn't he get rejected once by Gao? How to go back? ”

"Why does he always have trouble with Raiola?"

Fabio Adobati, an old friend of the crowd who had the best relationship with Viviano and had been with him for many years, sighed: "Because he had a star of hope that was poached by Raiola...... That player was discovered by Andre from the youth team of the small team, and he poured almost all his heart and soul into that man, creating the best conditions for him, treating him like his own son. But just after the player became a little famous, Raiola came to smell it, promised the player a very tempting future, and encouraged the player to kick Andre ......"

"And then? And then what about that genius? Someone asked curiously.

"Under Raiola, he moved frequently and couldn't play properly, his form plummeted, and in the end, there was no team to ask for him. And Raiola, seeing that he could no longer squeeze oil and water out of him, also abandoned him. He himself retired at the age of twenty-six. When Andre heard the news, he told me that if it weren't for Raiola, that kid could have had a brilliant career and be an international......"

Adorbati could still remember Viviano being drunk and saying these words to himself, like a father hearing the sad news of his son's death, with tears on his face and unaware of it.

"Uh......" asked the person who came after him with some embarrassment.

"Why haven't we ever heard from Andre?"

"Who wants to dig up their scars every day for people to see?" What Adobati said was silent.

After a long silence, someone finally sighed: "No wonder Andre wants to call our organization 'The Avengers'...... He's trying to get revenge on Raiola. ”

"Yes...... Honestly, I'm sympathetic to Andre's plight, but I'll say that Raiola is not that easy to beat. What he does best is his clever tongue and encouragement, and it is really easy for a young player who has no experience in the world to fall into his way. Maybe Gao has become a player under Raiola, but the media hasn't reported it yet......"

"Perhaps, but it's also possible that the two sides really haven't reached an agreement yet. As Andrei said, as long as you are not sure, you should not give up. ”

"I think we should help Andre." Adorbati said suddenly.

"How can I help?" The crowd looked at him.

"Niccolò, you are from Genoa, Genoa is your territory, can you share all the information you have gathered about Gao with Andrei?"

"No problem at all." Niccolò Toliano nodded without hesitation.

Adorbati looked at the other person: "Marco, I remember that you had business contact with Migure?" ”

Marco Tula hurriedly raised his hands: "Well, that was a long time ago, and we didn't negotiate it in the end, they were too greedy......"

"If you can, can you help Andre gather Migure's information about Gao?"

"Although it was a relationship a long time ago, I think I can still find some information, and I hope it can help Andre." Marco Tula immediately changed his words.

Adebati said to the other man: "Massimo, I remember your car is the best among us, Mercedes S, right?" ”

"Ahem, it's been a bit old......" Massimo Seuss was a little embarrassed.

"But we all know that you take care of it very much, and it is usually very well maintained, and the paint surface is not even scratched......"

"That's because I rarely drive ......" Seuss knew what Adobati meant, and he immediately took the initiative to say: "Although I rarely drive, this car is really good, and I think it is time to let this old fellow run to his heart's content, and it is enough to get from here to Genoa." ”

Adorbati nodded and smiled, "I thank you for Andre, Massimo." ”

"You're welcome? We're all friends! ”

The remaining two looked at Adobati: "What about us?" We can help too! ”

"Then cheer for Andrey!"

The wife stood curiously at the door of the bedroom, and as soon as the husband Viviano returned, he rushed into the bedroom and began to pack.

"Where are you going?" She asked.

"Genoa!" Viviano picked out a suit from the closet, put it in a box, and then took it out and tossed it aside.

"Sampdoria or Genoa? How can they take a fancy to your players? ”

Ignoring his wife's sarcasm, Viviano stood in front of the closet and picked up his suit again, and finally he came out with a suit in a dust bag.

Seeing this outfit, his wife was also a little surprised: "They really like your players?" ”

This outfit is only worn when the husband talks about big business, and it is the best set.

"I'm going to sign a player." Viviano didn't stuff the suit into the suit, but planned to just carry it to avoid wrinkles - he planned to go directly to Gao Zheng after arriving in Genoa, so he probably didn't have time to find a place to iron the suit.

"Sign players?" The wife frowned. "Which player deserves such grandeur? You didn't take it that seriously when you married me. ”

"I'm going to rob Raiola's people." Viviano snapped up the box and lifted it, gritting his teeth.

Hearing this, the wife did not say anything, but turned around and took out a red tie from the drawer: "Then don't forget to wear this lucky tie." ”

"Oh yes, I almost forgot! Thank you, Jenny! Viviano stuffed the tie into the box and gave his wife a kiss, like a warrior kissing goodbye to his lover before going on a battle.

※※※

When Viviano walked out of the house with his suitcase and his wife, he was surprised to find the members of the round table standing in front of him with smiles in their faces.

Massimo Seuss got out of his Mercedes and threw the keys to Viviano.

He took it and looked at Suss in surprise: "This is ......"

"Poaching people from Raiola is a must-lose. I'm always getting an old car, but I'm getting a successful agent. Soust deliberately bites "success" very hard.

"You don't usually cherish ......"

"Isn't it just to use it at this time?" Seuss said.

Then Rinicolo Toliano stepped forward: "I'll be your driver, Andrei." No one knows the streets of Genoa better than I do, and I'll tell you everything about Gao and Sampdoria on the way, so you have to know who you're going to dig, right? ”

"Niccolò, I'm robbing you......" Viviano was surprised that Toliano was willing to help him. He just said that the other party was a coward.

"Gao is not my person...... You're right, Andrei, I don't have the guts to rob Raiola's people. But I don't want to see Raiola so arrogant. Toliano shook his head.

"I've already called and asked, Migure has only been in contact with Gao, and the two sides have not reached any agreement. In other words, Gao is still not Raiola's player, so you still have a chance, Andre. Marco Tula also stepped forward and said.

"You ......" how could Viviano not understand what everyone meant at this time?

Adobati said to him: "Come on, Andrei, we all want to see you slap that dead fat man!" ”

Viviano was delighted: "So our organization can now be called 'The Avengers'?" ”

"That's not going to work, I think the name 'Brokers' Roundtable is pretty good." Adobati shook his head with a smile and said, while opening the door of the rear seat for Viviano, "Let's go, big agent, good luck!" ”
