351 Little Makelele
"How's it going over here?"
"It's worse than Spain and England, and even worse than the Netherlands."
Since the advent of Ribery, Rist is also preparing to establish Shili in France. Of course, Rist already had a branch in France, but the company was just a small workshop. But in recent times, Rist has tripled or quadrupled the size of the company. Rist hopes to find some French players to join his company.
"Exactly?"
"There are a lot fewer agents in France than in England, but there are too many African players in France, so agents who have a lot to do with Africa are concentrated in French football. Therefore, the number of brokers on the French side is much higher than the number of registered brokers, which should be several times. These people don't just hold those sixteen or seventeen-year-old talented players in their hands, even thirteen or fourteen-year-old players are taken down by them. The work is not very smooth. β
Reesette nodded. In recent years, Ligue 1 has become less and less competitive in European football, but there are more and more good players. Not only are there many talented players in France, but there are also good players among players from Africa who play in France. These factors have led to the fact that not only European football clubs are concerned about Ligue 1, but also many agents are also focusing on Ligue 1. Because as long as you catch a young talent in Ligue 1, many agents will be able to change their fate.
Rist thought for a long time, and then said, "You guys are like this. Don't always stare at those talented players in France. We can't get our hands on these people at the moment. Look away from the academies of those clubs and start with the lower leagues. It's a waste of energy and money for us. As long as we can get a talent, we will earn it. And I didn't expect to make money with one or two players, and most importantly to be able to use them to get us a foothold in Ligue 1. β
Coulboyce nodded. Courboyce is a broker in France who was poached by Rist to manage the French branch. Rister mainly looks at this person in French football for many years, although he is not very powerful, but he has a good connection.
"Still, Riester. If we want to do that, we need to expand our scouting system. β
Rist was silent. Rist is a broker and a businessman. For Lister, it is always necessary to pay attention to the ratio of input and income. It's not the same time anymore, and hiring scouts isn't easy.
Scouts are not isolated either. Scouting though is in need of vision. It also requires connections. Scouts are actually a thin line away from agents, and many agents in the current European football world turned out to be scouts. They used to be scouts, but one of them suddenly found a certain talented player and became an agent. There are many examples of this.
It's not so easy to find a great, well-connected scout. And even if you find it. Many of them also serve the wealthy. It's not cheap for brokerage companies to want to hire them. The annual salary of hundreds of thousands is a small scout. It is normal for a good scout to have a salary of more than three or four hundred thousand.
Rist has to consider whether it makes sense to invest more money in scouting every year. After thinking about it, Rist remembered that CM/FM also had a great team of scouts themselves.
"Let's wait. I'll talk to some other companies. It's a waste for us to afford so many scouts as a single company. Resource optimization is the most haode. β
"You can't get in here!"
"Hey, boy, there's something going on here. It's not where you can get in. β
While Rist and Coolboyce were talking, there was some noise outside. Rist looked at Coolboys, who was Coolboys' territory.
"I don't know."
Culboys shrugged, a little angry in his heart. He used to be an agent, but his grades weren't very good. He was later appointed by Rist to manage the French branch. Compared to when he was an agent, he now has a stable job and a good income. And judging from Rist's current situation, it is obvious that he wants to increase his investment in the French branch, and he knows that his status will continue to rise. At present, among the Rist brokerage companies, the Czech Republic is the base of the company, and the status of the Dutch, Spanish and English branches is much higher than that of the French branches. As a result, Courboyce was keen for Rister to increase his investment in France. There had never been anything like this before, I didn't expect Rist to come here to inspect today, and I don't know which bastard was so noisy.
"Let's go out and have a look."
Rist was a little curious, so he walked out with Coolboys. As soon as the staff saw the big boss and the top boss come out, they immediately came to explain.
Not a big deal. It turned out that there was a little hairy boy who wanted to find an agent and found Rist's branch in France. But I don't know what's going on, this kid is going to enter the office of Lister and Coulboyce. Of course, the staff couldn't let him in, but I didn't expect this kid to be quite unconvinced, and shouted that he must go in.
"Let that kid come over and show me."
Rist thought it was funny, so he asked the staff to bring him in. A few minutes later, a small child walked in with the staff. Black is not slippery, only 1.7 meters tall, and his body looks very weak, he is a black player. When Rist first saw him, he even thought he would be blown out by the wind.
"Hey, little one, do you know who I am? Why do you want to see me? β
"I know you. You are the Czech broker Lister. Cherny. β
The black boy was not afraid at all, and he didn't care at all about Rist. Rist couldn't help but smile, and then said, "Boy, what's your name." Even I know it's not easy. β
"My name is Russ. Diarra, I'm no worse than Makelele at Real Madrid. As for you, my agent used to mention your name every day. If you want me, I'll make you a lot of money. β
It's just a sixteen-year-old kid, patting his chest in front of an agent predator like Rist, guaranteeing that he can make money, which makes Rist very funny. But Rist did recognize Russ in front of him. Diarra.
Lars. Diarra and Muhammad. Diarra, like him, is a very good midfielder. Especially Russ. Diarra. This man once set a very impressive record when he was at Arsenal. That is, the number of appearances in the national team exceeds the number of appearances in the club, which shows his quality.
Lars. Diarra is a troublemaker, no matter whose hands it is. Even after arriving at Real Madrid in the future, he likes to make trouble and has to leave Real Madrid every day. But a strong manager like Jose Mourinho has kept Lars again and again. Diarra. It is because of Russ. Diarra's outstanding ability. Lars. Diarra defended well in the midfield position and was able to play at full-back, which was not bad. If Russ. Diarra is solely focused on defense, and defensively he is definitely one of the best players on Shijie.
Of course, this dude's emotional intelligence is not much different from Balotelli. Everywhere he went, he would make trouble, and the boy who was only sixteen years old now looked like a bear in the face of Rister, and you can imagine his temper.
"Boy, I'll tell you. I am a very well-behaved broker. Since you have your own broker. weishenme came to my company. I'm also an agent, and I don't like players like you. How do I know if in a few years, you will see that another agent is better and turn your back on me. β
Hear Rist's words. Lars. Diarra frowned. Then all of a sudden, he looked up and shouted, "I'm not that kind of person." It's my agent who is too sloppy. The club doesn't even let me play anymore. But my agent didn't have a clue about it. And he told me he didn't need me, and I didn't need him. I need liliang and I need a strong agent to help me. β
"Huh. You wait for me a moment. β
After Rist walked out. He said to Coolboys, "You send someone to check on this kid." Look at what this kid is like now. β
When he had finished his orders, Rist went inside. Looking at Russ with a stubborn face. Diarra didn't speak, but was there drinking coffee slowly. Lars. Diarra showed her childish side at this time. Although it was hard at first, it is not suitable for this quiet environment now.
Lars. Diarra wasn't a big deal, and it was only about ten minutes before Lister got the latest information. After reading it, Lister could only smile bitterly, and then sympathize with Russ. Diarra's original agent.
Lars. Diarra is black, but he's not like one of those black people who are physically good. On the contrary, the body is too thin. It's just 1.7 meters tall and weighs less than 60 kilograms. In addition, he didn't have any outstanding personal jishu, so the Nantes club that began to fancy him brushed him down directly.
It should be said that at this time Russ. Diarra was very depressed. However, his agent did not give up on him, but actively helped him fight for it, and finally won the opportunity to try out at Le Mans. Lars. Diarra still has the strength, and Le Mans really has a crush on him. Lars. Diarra's agent was so happy that even Le Mans thought Russ. Diarra's quality can already establish himself in the first team. So at just the age of sixteen, he was already promoted to the first team.
Lars. Diarra's agent was delighted and thought he was going to catch a good player. But no one thought of Russ. It didn't take long for Diarra to start falling out with the club as soon as he entered Le Mans. Although Le Mans is a club in the French second division, they also have a history and are not to be trifled with. Even a small player dares to be presumptuous, he really doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. So he was thrown straight into the academy and then didn't pay attention to him. Lars. Diarra wanted to terminate his contract, but Le Mans preferred to abolish him rather than terminate it.
Of course, if you have a strong broker, you can directly solve the contract with money. It's still an apprenticeship contract anyway, and it doesn't require much money. But Russ. Diarra has no money of his own, and his agent is not rich. And the important thing is that his agent is on fire, Russ. Diarra was missing a thread in his head, so he abandoned Russ instead. Diarra.
Leads to the current Russ. Diarra hasn't played in months. At Le Mans, you don't like to play or not, you come to train and no one cares about you, and you don't play in youth games. So Russ. Diarra wants to find a haode agent to help her out of this vortex. He remembered that his agent used to mention Riester's name, and the Czech national team won the Shijie Cup this time, so he also knew about Lister's branch in France. He knew that Lister's agency must be big and should be able to help. So I found this place, but I didn't expect to see Rist himself. That's why they clamored to see Rist himself.
Lister looked at Russ with a smirk. Diarra. This kid is really powerful, the club that was only sixteen years old banned him and his agent abandoned him. Even IbramoviΔ and Balotelli are not as noisy as him at this age.
"Russ. Diarra, you're really going to be my player. β
"Yes."
Lars. Diarra stood up and nodded. He knew that the best way to change his current fate was to become a player of Rist. Only an agent predator like Rist can change his fate.
"To be honest, I really don't like you. I don't have one or two players now, I have thirty or forty players your age. There are no less than ten talents that surpass yours. But no one has a temper as bad as you, and even looking at your agent can't stand you. I don't have time to manage a thorn like you. β
"With a talent like yours, plus a trash temper, let me take you? Let's go back. β
Listening to Rist's refusal, Russ. Diarra immediately stood up. Then he said, "I can earn you a lot of money in the future?" β
"One hundred thousand? Million? Million? Do you think you can be better than Nedved, Rosicky, Joaquin, Vicente? More money than them? Boy, how much more can you give me for your talent. I'm earning around 20 million euros a summer now, and I'll take a disobedient player like you for a little money. And I'm not a good-natured person, I don't know how you used to treat your agent. But with me you can express your opinion, and I can do anything for you, but if you continue to do this, I will not accept it. β
"I'll listen to you."
Lars. Diarra is only 16 years old, and the recent ban on him by Le Mans has made him very anxious.
"Really?"
"Really."
Rist didn't believe Russ. Diarra's words. How can a person's dog temper be changed if he says it? However, as long as this kid listens to Rist's words more in the future, Rist will not restrain his dog temper. Sometimes the players have a lot of trouble, which is also good for the agent to negotiate.
"Yes, boy. I remember your words today, and I'll help you solve the Le Mans affair. β
Lars. Diarra, if you look at strength alone, can definitely sit in the main position of the French national team. If it weren't for this kid's trash temper, his achievements would have been even better. Maybe he can cultivate the main defender of the French national team in the future, and it may really be the successor of Makellele. (To be continued......)
PS: I'm really sorry yesterday, I drank too much in the afternoon and didn't know how to get home. If I hadn't drunk too much, I'd definitely take a leave of absence.
