Chapter 201: What the hell is he here for!

In Millwall's operations department, when signing and transferring one after another, the official website also followed up and announced the latest news one by one.

At this time, the outside world is almost reporting on transfers.

The transfer market in Europe is the busiest in June and July, and the large-scale spending in the unit of 'tens of millions of pounds' always attracts the attention of the whole world.

After being in the spotlight for two summers in a row, Chelsea are once again in the spotlight in the transfer market with two big moves: the £24.4 million purchase of Lyon's main defender Essien; The £21 million purchase of Manchester City's wing-lined talent Wright Phillips is nothing more than an addition to the €8 million purchase of Del Orno.

In Chelsea's luxury squad, players worth less than 10 million can only supplement the substitute lineup.

Chelsea's frequent transfers of players are proof of that.

Thiago Mendes, Kezman, Scott Parker, Fursel, all of the powerful players were all sold by Chelsea at a low price, and they don't seem to care about the loss of some transfer income.

These players can almost play the main team in any team, but they can only be cleared out at Chelsea.

Among the 20 teams in the Premier League, another focus of transfers is Newcastle United, which has strengthened its strength by waving cheques, and they have spent as much as 12 million pounds on the introduction of striker Luke from Deportivo La Coruna, and then they have bought Scott Parker, Emre and other players to supplement their strength, and each transfer involves more than five million pounds.

Newcastle United are also in the spotlight because they have been chasing Michael Owen at Real Madrid, with the former golden boy likely to be his new club as he returns to the Premier League.

In addition to Chelsea and Newcastle United, other teams are also constantly replenishing their squads, such as Tottenham Hotspur and Everton, all of which have bought several players with a value ranging from two million pounds to six million pounds.

The Premier League's transfer is in full swing, and various clubs seem to be competing for financial resources, while Millwall is very low-key in comparison.

Maybe Millwall doesn't want to keep a low profile, for any professional club, attracting more attention will only be beneficial, when getting the attention of fans can make them remember the name, in order to have a higher reputation, in the commercial form attached to the professional game, higher fame is also equivalent to more benefits.

Pity...... Millwall has no money!

Due to the long-term mixing in the lower leagues, Millwall is the poorest of the twenty clubs in the Premier League, and even Sunderland and Wigan Athletic, which are promoted at the same time, can't catch up, and the latter two have several transfers of more than one million pounds, and Millwall disclosed the transfer news, not even a transfer of more than one million pounds, just looking at the transfer news, the media labeled Millwall as the 'number one relegation team'.

What can a player who has never been promoted to the Premier League, who has been in the lower leagues for a long time, and who does not spend money to replenish personnel after completing the promotion, rely on to complete relegation?

That's what the media thinks.

In a lot of the reports about transfers, when it comes to Millwall, the media likes to say 'they're just coming to the Premier League', 'take a season to get a feel for the top flight', 'they're going to be relegated, the difference is just how many rounds earlier', and so on.

Until now, there has been almost no mention of Zhang Yang in the media.

Under the general trend of Millwall's entire team 'not replenishing strength', no matter whether Zhang Yang as a head coach has the ability or not, Millwall is 'doomed' to have only one end, that is, relegation.

On this day, Millwall's official website announced the news of Darren Bent's joining.

The value of three million pounds is definitely not bad.

The transfer news was also reported by a number of media outlets, lamenting that 'Millwall has finally replenished the squad', but various reports are still not good for Darren Bent's transfer.

Darren Bent?

A young striker who has excelled in the Championship.

That's all.

There are many players who perform well in the lower leagues, but when they get to the top league, they immediately become 'passers-by', and they don't play at all, because the top league is much more intense than the second league, whether it is defensive or offensive.

£3 million to buy a young striker who has excelled in the second tier?

The Telegraph said with some exaggerated sarcasm, "Probably Millwall thought they were playing in the Championship and preparing for the Championship title for the new season!" They spent what little money they had, buying a 'useless' striker. ”

Zhang Yang was finally mentioned.

In the report of the "Daily Telegraph", there is 'grapevine' from Millwall FC that Darren Bent's transfer was facilitated by Zhang Yang, "Zhang Yang is optimistic about Darren Bent? Maybe it's because they're about the same age, maybe they'll be friends? It was funny, Millwall had brought friends to Zhang Yang for three million pounds...... But they may be in the new season and it will be difficult to win a few games. ”

From the report, you can also know how much the British media is not optimistic about Darren Bent.

This is not surprising.

The British media and fans are accustomed to 'genius', such as the stars of the England team, from the forward line to Michael Owen, Wayne Rooney to the midfield veterans Beckham, Gerrard, Lampard, to the back line Terry, Neville, Ferdinand, etc., almost every player is a 'teenage talent'.

These players have already made a name for themselves and played in the top league at the age of eighteen, and there are many more players who have made a name for themselves at the age of eighteen and are valued by the big clubs, but after the age of twenty they become dull.

In many people's opinions, if you are not yet 20 years old and have not played any famous games, you are just an ordinary player.

That's the case with Darren Bent.

Even if he has some fame in the second division, he is just an ordinary striker, and it is difficult to do anything in the top league.

With Millwall's financial situation, spending so much transfer money to bring in a 'not good' striker is a completely wrong transfer strategy, and this money is enough money for them to sign a few quality players in their playing years.

These players may not be geniuses, but they are enough for Millwall to strengthen their strength and contribute more to relegation in the new season than one Darren Bent.

Ebenezer could only shake his head and smile bitterly when he saw the media's comments on Millwall's transfer, in fact, he also persuaded Zhang Yang that Darren Bent's value is a little too high, and he can buy several powerful players at the same price, but Zhang Yang insisted on buying Dalen Bent, and he didn't have a good way.

Zhang Yang is the head coach.

If it weren't for Zhang Yang's leadership, Millwall would not have been able to complete the upgrade.

Both the chairman Gregory and the other members of the club's board of directors have great confidence in his ability to show off.

For the dissenting opinions of the transfer, it has no other meaning except to make the two conflicted, and he can't stop the transfer at all.

Zhang Yang didn't care at all.

Zhang Yang also occasionally looks at media reports, but those reports are difficult to explain anything.

Media analysis?

If the media analysis makes sense, what else does the manager do?

Darren Bent is not a genius and what can he do in the future, Zhang Yang is full of confidence, he doesn't pay attention to the rhetoric at all, he just thinks about tactics.

Zhang Yang gave himself a few days off.

On this morning, Zhang Yang was 'invited' to visit the company that Denise had set up, which was located in a building in a science park in north London.

Zhang Yang went with Catherine.

The two took the elevator to the nineteenth floor, and when the receptionist in charge saw Zhang Yang and Catherine coming together, they immediately whispered to Catherine, "Your boyfriend?" Seems to be Asian? ”

Catherine's face turned red, "What nonsense, he's Zhang." ”

"Zhang?"

"Don't you know? You don't even know your boss! Catherine's words made the front desk suddenly realize, revealing an incredible look.

Everyone in the company knows that Denis single-handedly created the company, but the largest shareholder is someone else, and they only analyze it from a few words, it is a young man, but this guy in front of him is too young, right?

In the surprise of the reception at the front desk, Zhang Yang walked in, looking left and right everywhere.

The scale of the new company is very small, the leased office area is only about 100 square meters, there are two rows of computers for employees to use, the number of employees is also very small, there are only five or six people in it, Zhang Yang walked directly to the office in the middle, that is probably what Denis uses, but look through the crack in the door, and find that there are also four desks in the room, and three people are working on the computer.

Zhang Yang walked over to Denise and said, "Didn't bother you, did you?" ”

Denise turned his head and saw Zhang Yang a little surprised, "Why are you here?" I thought you weren't interested! ”

Zhang Yang smiled embarrassedly, "I'm really not very interested, but Andy suggested that I come over and have a look." ”

"I knew it."

Dennis rolled her eyes, she had some complaints about Zhang Yang and Andy, who pushed most of the work to herself, but at the same time, she burst out with extreme enthusiasm for work, just to establish the company, let alone do business, it will take a lot of work.

From last month to now, she has slept no more than six hours a day, and the rest of the time she has been busy.

Zhang Yang noticed the dark circles on Denise's face, and showed a little distress, "Pay attention to rest more, don't be too tired!" Work can be done slowly. ”

"I can't help it, I'm too busy, and I haven't recruited a capable editor yet, so I can only do this work." Denise was a little depressed.

"Edit, what do you do?"

"Even if it's a script? We shoot small videos, but we also have to have a script, even if it's just a few jokes, or a small scene, we have to have a clear theme, and recently I'm writing a coherent short film script, and I think I'm getting bigger, and I really wish someone could help me. ”

Denise said and stared at Zhang Yang carefully, her expression undoubtedly expressing, "Hurry up and help!" ”

She did it for a reason.

Before the establishment of the company, when several people discussed the initial business, Zhang Yang proposed to shoot short films and small videos to make a name for himself in the way of online publicity, and also to earn a certain amount of advertising fees.

This is a fairly novel proposal.

Ten years from now, there will be a lot of small companies or even small teams that specialize in short films, but now, companies with similar business models are almost non-existent.

Although there are many short films on the Internet, most of them are clips of movies and TV series, or spoofed personal videos.

In Denis's opinion, Zhang Yang must have other things in his head to make suggestions for shooting short films, but unfortunately Zhang Yang is not interested in doing 'editing work', he is not willing to meddle in the work, which requires too many brain cells.

Just when Denis looked at Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang's mind paused for a while, he looked at Denis instead, and asked, "What did you just say?" ”

"I'd like someone to help?" Denise repeated in confusion.

"Ahead."

"I'm writing a coherent short film script?"

"Go further!"

Denise's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, "I said we need a capable editor!" To write a skit ......"

"Yes!"

Zhang Yang glared violently, pointed at Denise and said, "You said that writing a skit also needs a clear theme, right?" ”

"yes?"

"Haha, that's right, thank you, Dani!"

"Huh?"

"I say thank you! I'll go first! ”

Zhang Yang ignored the stunned Denis, turned around and quickly left the company building, Denise was stunned for a long time, and slapped the table angrily, "When it comes to work, he runs faster than anyone else, what the hell is he here for!" ”
