Yunli Tea House.

"Drink tea, don't be inhibited." Cao Huan poured a cup of tea for Lu Feng with a smile and handed it to Lu Feng, without the shelf of being a big boss at all. "I didn't have any malice in looking for you, don't get me wrong, just because I appreciate you and want to talk to you."

Seeing Cao Huan's actions, Lu Feng was a lot relieved, in fact, he didn't want to have a complete fight with the club. A club that has been in for many years will have feelings for anyone, and the best result is a peaceful parting with the club. Besides, Lu Feng said that he didn't care, but he still cared about the media's evaluation of him in his heart.

"Boss Cao, I know what you're going to say, it's just that it's really impossible for me to stay in the club. I also hope that the club will be fulfilled and not make everyone unhappy. ”

Lu Feng didn't wait for Cao Huan to speak first, took the tea, and said first.

Cao Huan was stunned, but the smile on his face did not change.

"Can you tell me why you don't want to stay at the club? Are you dissatisfied with the salary or the main position? If you stay in the club, I can give you another 500,000 annual salary, and there is definitely one of you in the main position. ”

Lu Feng was stunned, Cao Huan's generosity really shocked him. Rich and capricious, this is the biggest feeling in Lu Feng's heart. This reminded Lu Feng of the current domestic football environment.

Although the Chinese Super League has been very strong for so many years, it ranks first in Asia and often wins the AFC Champions League. There are also a lot of questions. For example, a team that was once brilliant a few years ago - Shaanxi Baye. At that time, because of the large investment of the club owner, he introduced stars and forcibly poached other clubs in China, creating the myth of the promotion horse winning the Chinese Super League championship. The following year, he successfully defended the Chinese Super League championship and reached the semi-finals of the AFC Champions League.

It was only with the loss of the club's owner's main business, unable to maintain the club's huge annual losses, and the sale was fruitless, the club was declared bankrupt. A club with a history of more than ten years and a creation of the myth of the Chinese Super League has disappeared like this. The Chinese Super League, until now, has relied on the club owner to spend money to operate, and nothing can not be lost. In this crazy money-throwing situation in the Super League, no one knows how long this false prosperity can last.

In terms of broadcast income, the Chinese Super League is not half a point worse than the five major leagues, but in terms of transfer investment, the Chinese Super League even ranked first in the world in 2020. This situation is really a false football bubble. If one day, bosses like Cao Huan don't want to continue to invest and withdraw their investment, I really can't imagine what the Super League will become.

Lu Feng rejected Cao Huan's kindness and replied unusually firmly.

"I am very grateful to the club for their optimism and attention to me. It's just that I really don't want to stay at the club anymore. ”

Cao Huan smiled and took a sip of tea.

"The salary is increased by 500,000, the core of the team. If you think about it, at your age, this is already a treatment that all clubs at home and abroad can't give. ”

Lu Feng showed a wry smile, he finally understood the reason why many excellent domestic players were reluctant to go abroad. Professional football, rich is the uncle, with such a high salary in the Super League, it is really easy to keep people. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't come for money, and I really wanted to improve myself, maybe I would really agree.

"It's not about money, Boss Cao. I just think that in China, I may be able to become the main force of the national team and the star of the Chinese Super League. However, this is not my pursuit. I want to be a world-class striker and be on top of the world. And all this, it is impossible for me to stay in the country. ”

Although Lu Feng's voice was not loud, the confidence and ambition in his words were undoubtedly revealed.

Cao Huan couldn't help but re-examine the young but ambitious child in front of him. Cao Huan is actually very optimistic about Lu Feng's talent, and he also likes the way he plays, otherwise, he would not have offered a sky-high contract to keep Lu Feng. It's just that Cao Huan never expected that Lu Feng's ambition would be so big. It seems that Shuntian can't keep Lu Feng.

Thinking of this, Cao Huan didn't waste any more time, stood up and patted Lu Feng's shoulder.

"In that case, I won't say anything. Work hard abroad and don't live up to everyone's expectations. Also, Shuntian welcomes you back at any time. As for the media, rest assured, the club will take care of it. Okay, I still have something to do, so I'll miss it first. ”

After Cao Huan finished speaking, he left with Wang Yu, leaving Lu Feng alone in the teahouse.

Lu Feng couldn't believe that the matter was over so simply. Of course, he wouldn't have thought that because of his talent, Cao Huan decided to make a good impression on Lu Feng. If you were someone else, the ending would be different.

At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the official website of Jiangsu Shuntian Club announced the news of Lu Feng's official transfer to Santos Club. In the official statement, he thanked Lu Feng for his contribution to the club during his time in Jiangsu Shuntian, focused on his performance in the Evergrande Cup, and wished Lu Feng good luck and achievements in the Santos Club. By the way, it was explained that Lu Feng broke up with the club peacefully, and there was no contradiction with the club, which eliminated the adverse impact on Lu Feng under the hype of the domestic media.

As for Lu Feng, the protagonist of this incident, at this moment, he is taking care of accompanying his little girlfriend, and he has no time to pay attention to these things.

January 1, 2026, New Year's Day. Santos City, São Paulo State, Brazil.

No flowers, no applause, no welcoming fans, not even a chauffeur. There weren't even many people at the press conference, which was a world away from the scenario that Lu Feng envisioned. A few media outlets, pretending to answer a few questions, signing a pretending contract, holding up a No. 18 jersey with their name on it, and the press conference is over.

Lu Feng secretly laughed at himself in his heart, you are just an unknown small role in football, even if you perform well in the Evergrande Cup, what if you are still the best player, what kind of game is famous in the world. In the final analysis, his strength is too weak and his reputation is too low. If it was Valle, it is estimated that the press conference would have been blocked by reporters.

Waller, last year's UEFA Player of the Year, World Footballer of the Year. Lu Feng's goal is that one day, he can also get the grand prize that all players dream of. It's just that, right now, Land Breeze is still very far away from these two awards. If you want to win these two awards, you need to work hard.

After an extremely brief press conference, Lu Feng followed the team's head coach Curry to the Santos club's training base named after the football king Pele.

Waiting for this land breeze is a variety of physical tests.
