"I've read the reports on the Internet, is this true, Fan?"

After a brief greeting, Molina directly explained the purpose of the call. His voice was slightly low and worried, and it was clear that he was also shocked by the news of the sudden revelation of Spain's infighting in the media.

As Fan Bizhuang's agent, the relationship between the two can be described as one glory and one loss, the two have long planned their responsibilities, Fan Bizhuang at the competitive level as much as possible to express and strive for honor, and Molina is to take care of all business matters outside the arena for him.

Although Molina had just changed careers and lacked experience at the beginning, through continuous learning and accumulation of "actual combat" in recent years, he has become more and more handy in the role of "big butler".

For example, this time in the South Africa World Cup, with Fan Bizhuang's successive highlight performances in the game, his value is also rising, and it has attracted countless world-renowned large businesses, Molina took this opportunity to select a few advertisers who are not only in line with Fan Bizhuang's image, but also can bring a lot of benefits, and this is not the "end", if Fan Bizhuang can continue to perform well, or Spain can go further in the World Cup, then Fan Bizhuang's value will continue to rise like a rocket, That's why he only accepted a handful of commercial contracts – the real big ones are still to come, and the better the results of the Spanish team, the more confidence he will have to fight for more and better commercial contracts for Van Bizhuang.

However, the current Spanish team has suddenly exposed the "infighting" file, no wonder he is in a hurry, the longer Spain stays in the World Cup, the higher the commercial value of Fan Bizhuang, and vice versa. But if Spain is in turmoil because of the "infighting" incident, and the team has no intention of fighting, then he and his boss will not lose a lot of money?

Of course, even putting aside the business aspect, with his understanding of Fan Bizhuang alone, the other party is undoubtedly extremely eager for glory on the green field, and if he misses this opportunity, he may leave some regrets in his heart. In addition to being his boss, Fan Bizhuang is also his child, so he naturally doesn't want to see that scene happen.

Fan Bizhuang groaned for a moment, and finally nodded, his voice slow and low.

"It's true."

This sentence made Molina's heart skip a beat, but the next sentence that followed made him slightly relieved.

"But now the problem should be solved, and it shouldn't have much impact on our preparations."

Molina nodded slightly: "That's good." By the way, during your time in South Africa, many advertisers approached me to seek cooperation, and I screened a few of them, all of which are well-known businesses with good salaries, and they are the kind of people who can cooperate in the long run. After all, the World Cup is not over yet, and your value and commercial value will be further enhanced, so I only purposefully chose a few partners to work with. ”

"It's good if you decide, I'm sure you can handle these things."

Many excellent professional players basically focus on the green field, and the rest of the things are handed over to people they trust to take care of, which is why many managers can sign some seemingly unwise contracts without telling their employers, because they have a lot of "processing power" in their hands, and some managers who can't help but tempt them to sell their employers' interests for their own interests. In today's football world, rumors of disagreements between players and agents, and even going to court, happen from time to time.

Fan Bizhuang's "right to deal with" Molina is also very large, but he doesn't have the slightest worry, Molina is the person he trusts the most, and the two have always had a father-to-father relationship - it's true, Molina regards Fan Bizhuang as his son, and Fan Bizhuang also regards the other party as a "future father-in-law", with such a relationship as Felisa, there is really nothing to harm each other between the two people, Fan Bizhuang even "kidnapped" other people's daughters, they can be regarded as a real family, It's just a matter of time.

Molina's response was also very casual, just "hmm", signaling that he understood, and then said: "In addition, I have another good news and a bad news, which one do you want to hear?" ”

"Bad news." Fan Bizhuang likes bitter first and then sweet, and replied out loud.

"Well, I'll tell you the good news first."

“……”

Fan Bizhuang rolled his eyes, only to hear Molina's voice continue to ring on the phone.

"The good news is that Nike is ready to hire you as a spokesperson for the Asian region, and they offer lucrative terms and pay you a high salary, which will also be of great help to your business image."

In recent years, as Fan Bizhuang's performance in the European arena has become more and more outstanding and influential, his commercial value has also been valued by many internationally renowned sports brand companies, and Nike is one of Fan Bizhuang's partners.

Obviously, with the highlight performance in this World Cup, Nike has a higher evaluation of Fan Bizhuang's commercial value, coupled with Fan Bizhuang's Chinese identity, which makes the other party have the intention to deepen cooperation.

Fan Bizhuang nodded: "What about the bad news?" ”

"The bad news is ...... Originally, we had a good talk, but now the newspapers and the Internet have exposed the infighting in the Spanish team, and although they have not withdrawn the negotiations, the current attitude seems to be mostly wait-and-see. If you want to get a big contract, you're going to have to prove it in the next games. ”

"This is a merchant."

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Fan Bizhuang's mouth and shook his head. If the Spanish team can go further and Van Bizhuang continues to perform well, then his influence and positive image will be more known to the world, and conversely, if Spain cannot go further, the incident of infighting will be confirmed, which is negative for Van Bizhuang's image. As one of the world's top sports brands, it is debatable whether Nike will appoint a player who is riddled with "negative news" as a promotion ambassador and image ambassador in Asia.

"Whatever they are. But then if they're willing to continue talking, then we'll add conditions. ”

"I understand."

The two of them talked about some work matters and talked about the recent preparations, and Molina gave a few words of encouragement and closed the line.

……

Doubts and criticism from the outside world are still ongoing, but the Spanish players are under pressure and continue to make final preparations for the next quarter-finals.

Time flies quickly, July 2 finally arrives, and the curtain of the quarterfinals of the World Cup in South Africa has completely opened.

The first match was between the rivals of Brazil and the Netherlands, at the Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth.

One of the two teams is currently the country with the most World Cup titles, with Brazil having lifted the Hercules Cup a total of five times and are among the favourites to win the World Cup in South Africa.

The Netherlands are also a traditional powerhouse in Europe, with a large number of fans around the world, but in terms of honours, they are far from the Samba Army, and so far, they have never won an international competition.

But in any case, the collision between the two is still Mars hitting the earth, both are traditional strong teams, all star-studded, who will become the first team to reach the semi-finals of this World Cup, it is speculative.

Some people are optimistic about Brazil for the simple reason that Brazil are the biggest winners of the World Cup, they have the most experience in winning the tournament, and they are the favorites to win every time they participate in the World Cup.

There are also people who are optimistic about the Dutch team, Robben, Sneijder, Kuyt...... Although the country of tulips has never won a championship in a major tournament, their strength should not be underestimated, and they are often able to stage a good show of "defeating the strong with the weak", and the name of "uncrowned king" has also made them household names all over the world.

In his opinion, the Brazilian team started from the group stage and went all the way to the quarterfinals, obviously the team is in an excellent state, while the Dutch team's road to promotion is a little stumbling, and from the perspective of strength comparison, the Brazilian team has more stars, and the overall ability is stronger, defeating the Dutch team to enter the quarterfinals, there will be no big problem.

The course of the first half of the game seemed to confirm Pele's argument, and just ten minutes into the game, Brazilian striker Robinho broke through on the left side of the penalty area and slotted home to give Brazil a comfortable one-goal lead.

And in the following time, the Brazilian team also dominated the field, and they almost pressed the Dutch half of the siege.

In the first half of the game, many fans and the media exclaimed loudly, the football king is finally going to take off his "crow's mouth" hat, but it turns out that your uncle is still your uncle, the crow's mouth is still the crow's mouth, and Pele is a man with a super halo of "high-end black".

In this Cup, Pele's favored teams have all suffered greatly - optimistic about the French team, but the Gallic Roosters did not win a game in the group stage and were eliminated from the group ahead of schedule; Optimistic about Italy, Italy also boarded the flight back to the Apennines early. Optimistic about England, England was directly beaten by the German team......

Now, he is optimistic about his home country, Brazil, which has become the next "victim".

In the first half, the Brazilian team, which had the advantage of the score and the field, was unable to extend the lead, but in the second half, the situation was abrupt, and the Dutch team seemed to have played chicken blood, and their all-attacking and all-defensive style was vividly embodied, and the Brazilian team was suppressed by the opponent in turn.

What's even more unfortunate is that in the 52nd minute of the game, Sneijder made a cross on the left side, and goalkeeper Cesar made a mistake and collided with the central defender Melo who was back to the defense, and the fallen Melo pushed the football into his own door.

And Melo's own goal also helped the Dutch team equalize dramatically.
