"What? Shooting commercials with Ambrosio? Ricardo asked in surprise.

"That's right," Farah's voice came out of the receiver of the phone, "Susan will contact you, this is a good opportunity, the time limit is 3 years, 1.5 million US dollars in endorsement fees, the key is that this exclusive agreement is only valid in Brazil, and when you land in Europe in the future, you can completely endorse other larger companies." ”

$1.5 million for 3 years, which is not much. But after all, the exclusivity agreement is only in effect in the Brazilian domestic market, and it is very good to restrict Ricardo from endorsing other similar Brazilian brands, but not to prohibit Ricardo from endorsing products of similar foreign brands.

The endorsed product is a shampoo brand called "Palos", which is a local Brazilian brand. Farah believes that this shampoo brand is in line with the image of Licardo, and endorsing it will not have a negative impact on Licardo.

If you change to a greedy agent, maybe as long as you make money, you will let your players endorse anything. But Farah is different, on the one hand, although he is greedy, he also has a bottom line, on the other hand, his most valuable player is Ronaldo, he must be trembling to maintain a good relationship with Ronaldo, so he must not cheat Ricardo.

Once he cheats Ricardo, he may be able to make tens of millions of dollars, but he will lose the tens of millions of dollars in profits brought to him by Ronaldo.

This is Ricardo's first endorsement, and as soon as he signs a contract, he will immediately become a millionaire.

But why did you shoot a commercial with Ambrosio? This made Ricardo a little surprised, and also a little reverie. He undoubtedly has a good impression of Ambrosio, or so to speak, as long as he is a man with normal physiological functions, it is difficult not to have a good impression of Ambrosio. After all, it was a charming beauty, one of the "three supermodels of Brazil".

And although Ricardo's biological age is only 16 years old, because of the influence of his mental age, he still prefers women between the ages of 20 and 30. And Ambrosio is undoubtedly at the most beautiful and sexiest age of her life, which is the age that Ricardo can most accept.

But Ricardo quickly suppressed the reverie. Now, what he should do most urgently is to improve himself as soon as possible, and he can't allow anything to distract him. Ideally, after two years, you can rise to world-class heights. At the very least, it is necessary to move up to the middle and high level of the intercontinental level.

Otherwise, it will be difficult for the Nerazzurri to have his main position in the Nerazzurri in two years' time.

Ronaldo, Vieri, Adriano, Recoba, Figo, Stankovic, Van der Meyde, Kiely. Gonzalez, Veron, Martins...... A star-studded midfield means fierce competition.

And he doesn't want to sit on the bench and watch Ronaldo play, what he wants to do is to stand by Ronaldo's side, provide assistance for Ronaldo, and win glory together.

The signing day is the day after the tournament. After a boring and lengthy signing ceremony, Palos held a small press conference, which Ricardo naturally had to attend to answer questions from reporters.

At present, the media only knows that Licardo endorsed Palos, and does not know that Ambro will shoot an endorsement commercial with Ricardo, otherwise I don't know what a sharp question will be asked.

After negotiations between Susan and the other party, the date for the shooting of the advertisement was also set, just after the next match in Sao Paulo.

Ricardo's injuries have finally fully recovered. However, the day before the home game against Victoria, he was told by Osvaldo that he would not start.

When Osvaldo announced the news, Fabiano, Kaka, Ricardinho, Rico and others all looked at each other in bewilderment.

Osvaldo's explanation was: "Little Ricardo, the opponent in this game is not strong, you have one more rest. ”

But Ricardo didn't think so. Although he accepted it calmly on the surface, it was only that he did not want to challenge the authority of the manager in public.

Give yourself a break? It seems like a normal rotation, but Kaka and Fabiano are also tired, so why not let them rotate?

After training, he told Rico to go to the gym first, and he followed in Osvaldo's footsteps and left the training ground.

Osvaldo, of course, noticed that Ricardo was following him. In the shade of a tree, he paused and waited for Ricardo to approach. The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the leaves on the ground, creating a dappled light and shadow. The footsteps drew closer, and Osvaldo looked up.

Looking at Ricardo's calm gaze, Osvaldo frowned slightly. He couldn't see anything in that gaze.

The young man in front of him should be his descendant. It was he who discovered it, and it was he who gave Ricardo the opportunity to make his professional debut.

Of course, Ricardo seized the opportunity to come out on top. But it all started when he brought Ricardo to the first team and put him in the squad.

He expected Licardo to be grateful.

But he was disappointed in the last game. He replaced Ricardo in the hope that he could do his best to open up the situation and score three points for the team. Ricardo didn't. It's not that I'm in bad shape, it's just that I didn't do my best. With almost 20 years of coaching experience, he can certainly tell if the players are doing their best.

He had a sense of betrayal.

I gave you everything, but you didn't give me enough in return.

Quietly staring into Ricardo's eyes, he waited for Ricardo to speak first.

'I'm not fit, I'm ready to start.' Ricardo finally spoke slowly.

Osvaldo raised his eyebrows: "I have my plans and arrangements. ”

Ricardo said calmly: "I just want to figure out, is this a tactical need?" Or is it protection for me? Or rather...... Punish? ”

Osvaldo was stunned. He didn't expect Ricardo to be so direct and choose a showdown. He frowned, "I hope you're not questioning my decision. It's my team and when I make a decision, I want absolute obedience. ”

As he said this, he seemed to hear the sound of something shattering.

"I see." Ricardo's expression and voice were still calm, but the violent heaving of his chest proved that he was by no means calm.

Osvaldo's voice became stern: "No, you don't understand. Do you think you're a big star now? Get a little bit and you're going to have your tail cocked! I want you to be 100 per cent committed every time you go on the pitch, and if you can't, I'll choose someone who can do it! ”

But I was hurt at the time. Ricardo shook his head and didn't say anything. Sometimes, the manager and the players have the same goals and interests. For example, they all want to win the game and win the championship.

But sometimes, there are contradictions between the manager and the players.

But this is really a very small thing, and the contradiction is only in the bud. Ricardo did not want such a conflict to escalate.

Maybe it's better to chill it for a while. "I'm at your disposal." Ricardo simply expressed his attitude, unconvinced, but obedient to the arrangement. With that, he left straight away and returned to the gym.
