Chapter 14: Another Gamble
The Premier League schedule for the 04-05 season has been released, with the first round taking place on the weekend of August 14 and 15. Among them, Tonham Hotspur's home game against Liverpool is eye-catching. Of course, the biggest sensation in English football is that the number 15 Chelsea will take on the Red Devils at Stamford Bridge!
Joe Cannon vs. Sir Alex Ferguson? It must have been the result of a very joke, and almost the entire English media and fans thought so. Even Chelsea fans think that if a team loses less than three, it is a blessing!
It's just that after Qiao Wanxian in the head coach's office received the schedule submitted by Boas, he was so happy that he almost let out a loud daxiao: "Since everyone calls me Qiao Cannon, then I will completely fire a cannon!" Sir Alex Ferguson, I'm sorry, I need a legendary manager to help me get into the position, this game ...... I want to win! ”
After two days of silence, England's golden boy Owen finally made it clear in an interview that he would not leave the land of England! Everyone knows that in Owen's transfer, the young and inexperienced Joe cannon actually defeated the invincible Mourinho!
It's just that after hearing the news, the madman did not show as angry as the media imagined, but just said lightly that he hoped that Owen could play well in the Premier League.
In fact, in Mourinho's heart, he has a kind of resistance to the introduction of Owen, but it is only the repeated insistence of Chairman Florentino and years of business strategy that make him reluctantly accept this result. Well, this time, although this Qiao cannon is talking nonsense all day long, he has done himself a favor.
Mourinho doesn't want Owen because he has a more favourite target in mind – Didier Drogba!
When Owen said that he would continue to stay in the Premier League, Totenham Hotspur, Arsenal, Newcastle and other teams threw olive branches to Owen, and Ferguson was also very interested in Owen, but he knew that with the bad relationship between Manchester United and Liverpool, Liverpool Club would never allow Owen to come to Manchester United.
The media has made predictions about Owen's next stop, and the Daily Mail's Andreessen has made a bold speculation: Owen will land at Arsenal this summer! Arsenal's Bergkamp are on the older side and the club is in desperate need of a top-class striker like Michael Owen.
Next, Anderson said that Tottenham and Newcastle have a chance, but only Joe Wanxian, who has recently been fighting for Owen with Real Madrid, has not got the slightest chance of Owen, because he thinks that Joe's transfer is simply bullshit!
In fact, the situation of Jovin is really bad right now, and Chelsea have officially announced that Cech has joined Chelsea for 13 million euros, and at the same time brought in young defender Sergio Ramos from Sevilla for 10 million euros!
Coupled with the previously announced exchange of Veron and Cannavaro, the English media can no longer stand the nonsense of Joe's cannon, and even the "Times", which has always been close to Chelsea, has published news such as "Stupid club stupid decision, idiot manager idiot recruitment"!
Yes, when Qiao Wanxian attended the press conference with the newly recruited youngsters Cech and Ramos, the media from all walks of life, who were not good at Qiao Wanxian, began a new round of demolition of the "cannon" turmoil.
There are even extreme reporters who ridiculed Abramovich, the owner of Chelsea FC, as much as he can, saying that he is a mentally retarded man with a lot of money, and it is just a matter of asking an idiot to be the coach, and also approved his idiot recruitment application! The current Chelsea club is definitely a swarm of idiots and retarded!
Abramovich had to hire Qiao Wanxian as the head coach because of a gambling contract, but in the past month or so, Qiao Wanxian's various unbelievable remarks and reinforcements made him feel a burst of inexplicable pressure. This pressure is even more terrible for him than the global economic crisis.
All kinds of extreme sarcasm in the media and CEO Kenyon's recent chatter, so that the Russian predator who sits firmly on Mount Tai can't resist the pressure after all, and decides to talk to this Joe cannon!
When Abu found Jowan, he was watching the players train at the Cobham training base, especially the three new signings – Cech, Cannavaro and Ramos.
These three handsome guys made Qiao Wanxian more and more happy. Thinking about their remarkable growth in the coming years under their careful "guidance", a surging sense of pride arises.
Seeing Abu coming to the sidelines with a melancholy face, Qiao Wanxian was very surprised, what's wrong? Your oil industry in Russia is being taken over by state-owned enterprises?
Abu is dressed casually, and it's hard to tell that he's a super-rich man worth billions. His face was not good, and he said in a deep voice: "Wan Xian, ...... recently The media is criticizing you more and more. ”
Qiao Wan was taken aback: "You don't want to fire me squid, do you?" His chin shell was about to fall off, and he said, "Boss, we have a contract!" I won't agree to terminate the contract if you want to! ”
Abu waved his hand, shook his head again and again, and said, "No, no, no, you misunderstood." I mean...... You have the right to speak freely, and I have no right to interfere. It's just that this reinforcement ...... It's just too bad! ”
Qiao Wan took a breath and said with a smile: "Boss, you can rest assured, these players I bought are the best in the world!" It's definitely worth the money, you don't have to believe the criticism of the unscrupulous media, just trust me. ”
Abu pursed his lips and thought to himself, "Trust you? What do you want me to believe in you? A warm-up game was flooded by AC Milan three times in the first half, and it took two goals to pull back in the second half. And in the face of Milan's outstanding superstars, you should bring in the worst and most unremarkable Brazilian Kaka, is there any logic in you? ”
Abu shook his head, his face worried.
Qiao Wanxian's eyes rolled, and suddenly the dream of building a football empire appeared in his mind. He took a deep breath and smiled casually, "What? Mr. Abu doesn't believe that these players I bought are shijie top? Why don't we make another bet? ”
"Bet?" Abu smiled slightly, but an impulse appeared in his heart.
It's like gambling, the more you lose, the more you want to keep gambling, looking forward to the next success. Especially an outstanding businessman like Abu, he was actually won by Qiao Wanxian, a hairy boy, and his desire to win was aroused at once.
"Tell me, bet on what?"
Qiao Wanxian suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and said confidently: "All the transfers I request, if the player's selling price in the future is less than the purchase price, then I will bear the loss of the club's transfer price difference!" How is it? ”
"Huh?"
Abu's eyes widened. Rao is a big businessman like him, and he has never seen such a confident and proud person, this buying a player is the same as investing, who dares to guarantee success every time? As a coach, how can you have so much confidence to ensure that every recruitment is successful?
You know, as long as one recruitment fails, it may cost you a few years of salary for nothing.
Abu said incredulously, "Wan ...... Wan Xian, are you serious? ”
Qiao Wan patted his chest and said loudly: "Then there is still a fake?" Of course, there is also a precondition for this, just like your businessman's investment, the greater the risk, the greater the return. ”
"Oh? How? Abu re-examined the young man and found that he seemed to have a maturity and confidence that did not correspond to his age.
Qiao Wan pinched his chin and said slowly: "I am fully responsible for the loss of the player's transfer, but if the transferred player makes a profit, that is to say, if the player who comes to the transfer is profitable, that is to say, I need to get 50% of the profit, this is not a high requirement, right?" ”
"Fifty percent? Hmm......" Abu was silent.
In fact, for Abu, it doesn't matter if it's 50 percent or 80 percent. What he cares about most is whether Qiao Wanxian can lead Chelsea to the championship!
He didn't care about the money he lost or the money he made a profit, but he knew that if the bet came into effect, it would be Chelsea Football Club who would benefit! Because it is impossible for Qiao Wanxian to buy some waste players, and if he wants to make a profit, that is to say, if the purchased players want to appreciate and sell, they must make the team have very good results!
For Abu, money is just the number, and the team's results are the main attraction!
Abu's eyes glanced at Qiao Wanxian, still in disbelief: "Wanxian, this bet is ...... It's too much pressure on you, and you're taking a lot of risk, are you sure you want to gamble? ”
Qiao Wanxian said loudly without hesitation: "Mr. Abu, what I have decided can never be changed!" If you don't believe me, we can sign a contract specifically for this matter. ”
Abu took a deep breath, glanced at Qiao Wanxian with interest, nodded and said, "Okay, then let's sign a contract in black and white!" ”
"But ......" Abu suddenly changed his words and hesitated, "But this kind of bet is too unfair to you, so be it." You have 50% of the profit from selling players, and you only have to pay 50% of the loss of players from selling. ”
Qiao Wanxian nodded solemnly, his face was calm, but he was already smiling in his heart.
"Bah, my annual salary is only a million pounds a year, huh! I can sell a player for 20 or 30 million, and half of the profit is at least 10 million! haha, this is the trump card channel for money, and the prophetic sense is not a joke! ”
At this time, Qiao Wanxian's dream of a football empire finally began to take off, he wanted to earn enough money to buy a club, be his own boss, and work for himself!
Qiao Wanxian doesn't understand business policy, doesn't know how to speculate in stocks and houses, and his method of making money can only be through football. A club in a high-level league would cost at least a few hundred million euros, but for Qiao Wanxian, that was not an astronomical amount.
"It seems...... I'm going to live as a trafficker in the last few years...... Heard that Porto, Portugal is the number one black shop in Europe? Jokes, in front of me Qiao Wanxian, you will never think of being the first again! ”
As soon as the breeze blew, Qiao Wan was refreshed.
