Chapter 53: Happy Cooperation!
It is said that people who love sports are more lively, which is not bad at all. Baker's temperament is indeed very lively. However, he is also a workaholic, and after confirming some details with Qin Shou, Baker quickly quit and left.
He decided to go to the Arsenal club immediately to discuss the return of Henry and Qin Shou to the major leagues, and of course he would also inform the American side and let the New York Red Bulls reject Arsenal's transfer request.
Of course, when he left again, Baker did not forget to bring a bag of tea given to him by Qin Shou - although Qin Shou would return to the United States with him in a few days, Baker was a little impatient, he said that he would carry a cup with him these days, and then brew the tea that Qin Shou gave him, and drink tea whenever he wanted.
After sending Baker away, only Qin Shou, Henry and Anderson were left in the living room.
The transfer matter is settled, and the rest is the agent's business.
However, Qin Shou did not immediately talk to Anderson about this issue, but threw out the previous topic.
"Was my decision unexpected?"
Henry nodded: "It's really beyond my imagination, Qin, I don't think you made the best choice." ”
Qin Shou smiled noncommittally, but he didn't speak.
"Is this my school?"
Anderson was a little happy in his heart, for a gold medal agent like him, he was always the only one who took the school exam, but he didn't expect that he would be reversed by a young boy who was not yet 20 years old today.
To be honest, Qin Shou's choice did surprise Anderson. In his opinion, it is indeed much better to be able to stay in the top league of Europe than to play in the United States. At least in terms of value, after the training of the top league, Qin Shou can continue to rise. But in the United States, it is difficult to skyrocket in value. After all, football is not the most popular and concerned sport in the United States, but it is different in Europe. In this era of incomparably advanced information and even pervasive, exposure is equal to name and value! It's money!
Of course, Anderson didn't think Qin Shou's choice was wrong. Half a year, Qin Shou can afford to wait, he still has time to precipitate and accumulate. The most important thing is that although there are many clubs that have applied for transfer this time, there are few excellent ones, and there are no suitable ones, so why do you have to transfer? You must know that every transfer of a player is an opportunity, but there are also risks. So you have to be cautious about the transfer.
He Anderson is not one of those agents who disregard the interests of his players for money, although he also loves money, but he understands that his food and clothing parents are players, and if he wants to make more money continuously, he has to make his players more valuable. How is it valuable? Does this need to be asked? That's when the players play well! If a player performs well, he earns more, and in turn, if he tastes the sweetness in the player, then he will defend the player more and make his player perform better......
It's a virtuous circle. This is also an essential quality for a successful broker.
Money, who does not love. Only by letting their players continue to perform well and constantly reflect their own value, then the money will come naturally.
In other words, in plain language, hello, hello, hello everyone.
However, Anderson is very clear about his identity, he is not Qin Shou's agent at this moment, and he is not qualified to dictate Qin Shou's decision.
After a slight hesitation, Anderson put down the coffee cup in his hand and said, "Qin, it's inconvenient for me to comment on your decision. However, everyone has their own choices, and no matter what decision you make, you have your own reasons. ”
There's one more thing Anderson doesn't say - that is, if you're my employer, I'll give you the best advice that best serves your interests, and that's your business for what you ultimately decide. I just have to follow your decision, make the best plan, and put it into action.
Qin Shou smiled, but looked at Henry, and continued: "I don't know much about agents, but since you are Thierry's friend and his agent, then I think you are trustworthy." ”
It's a nice feeling to be trusted by a friend, and Henry winks at Anderson triumphantly.
Anderson was also smiling. Qin Shou's words made him feel that the purpose of his trip was very likely to be successful.
He turned sideways slightly, took the briefcase on the sofa in his hand, opened the zipper, and prepared to take out some of the information he had prepared in advance to Qin Shou for a look, including his agent certificate, as well as the legal certificate of the agent company under his name, as well as some honors he had received, and some of the terms he listed - for the terms, Anderson is very confident, it is completely formulated in accordance with the rules of football, it is very fair, and even in some details, it can be said to be very good. He believed that if Qin Shou saw it, he would definitely be moved.
To Anderson's surprise again, Qin Shou waved his hand and rejected the information he handed over.
"Is what you gave me the same as what you gave to Thierry?"
Qin Shou's straightforward question made Anderson a little embarrassed, and even Henry was a little speechless. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Anderson smiled bitterly: "Qin, you may not know, although you have shown a certain amount of talent and performed extremely well during the period of loan to Arsenal, but ......"
In the face of Qin Shou's very direct question, Anderson could only tell the truth, although saying so may hit Qin Shou's self-confidence, and may make him lose a player with great potential, but Anderson has always been honest in business, he doesn't want to use deception to deceive Qin Shou's contract, the result of this may make him a fortune in a short time, but in the end it can only be a break up between the two.
In this way, the gains outweigh the losses. At the same time, he will lose the good reputation he has built up in European football.
"Let's put it this way, Qin, you and Thierry are not players of the same level at this stage. I hope you understand that, in today's football, you are still a long way from Thierry, both in terms of status and influence. ”
Anderson's subtext is that you are still far from Henry, and you can't count on the contract he enjoys for the time being.
"That's exactly what happened."
Anderson's straightforward words made Qin Shou sigh with a slight wry smile. Anderson's answer was as expected by him, if he had the same fame and influence as Thierry Henry, then Arsenal would not and would not dare to give up on him. So......
"I still don't have enough influence!"
Qin Shou has never had such a huge desire for a gold medal agent as he did at this moment. He is confident in his own strength, and he also believes that he will continue to improve, and continue to climb to the peak of stars and even superstars, but he can only show himself on the green field, and he can't care about things off the field.
He was in dire need of a professional broker to help him take care of everything and develop his business value. Only when his value is maximized can his influence continue to increase, and he can have a certain status in world football.
"Qin, although your contract is different from Thierry's, it is also very much by me, and among young players, your contract has exceeded them too much. I believe that with your potential and ability, it will not be long before you will reach a very high level...... By that time...... Even if you don't propose to change the contract, I will take the initiative to suggest it to you. The value of a player is in how well he plays on the pitch, and as long as you play well enough, then you are sure to get everything to match! It's everything, not just contracts. ”
Anderson is still lobbying Qin Shou as much as he can, he is really optimistic about the young Chinese player, and he doesn't want to give up easily.
Qin Shou reached out and sorted out the materials on the table, then handed them back to Anderson, and then stood up from the sofa.
Anderson shook his head in disappointment, Qin Shou's movements undoubtedly showed that he didn't want to continue talking to himself. It is clear that the negotiations have collapsed.
"I don't think I need to look at it anymore." With a smile on his face, Qin Shou bowed his head lightly at Anderson and stretched out his right hand towards Anderson.
"Sure enough...... Is this a polite refusal? …… Alas! ”
Anderson sighed helplessly in his heart, but he had to get up and reach out to shake Qin Shou.
"Hopefully Mr. Anderson will be able to go back and get his contract ready as soon as possible." Qin Shou was still smiling, "In the future, I will be Mr. Anderson's contracted player, and I will leave everything to you." I hope we can have a good time working together. ”
"Okay, I hope we can have a chance to work together next time...... Wait a minute! What did you say? Anderson's originally bitter expression suddenly froze, and then a trace of disbelief was revealed, he was a little suspicious that there was something wrong with his ears, and he said uncertainly, "Qin, you ...... You mean......"
"Yes, Mr. Anderson, I hope you don't turn down a nobody like me, I'd love to be a signed player with your agency."
After a mature and steady Anderson heard Qin Shou's affirmative answer again, the surprise on his face could no longer be suppressed. He tightened his right hand that he was holding with Qin Shou again, and said excitedly, "Of course I won't refuse." Trust me, Qin, you will be the most valuable and successful player in my portfolio, and I am sure that in the near future, you will be glad for today's decision. ”
"I believe it too, Mr. Anderson." Qin Shou nodded and smiled, "Happy cooperation!" ”
"Happy working together!"
