459 Bigger Trouble

"Their club manager has already contacted me, hoping to talk about your treatment, so I came here to ask, do you agree to transfer to Newcastle? If you don't agree, then you can still refuse. Your three-year contract with Hoffenheim is still valid." Ning Xi finally said.

For a player transfer, in addition to the buyer’s bid to get the seller’s consent, the player’s own consent is also required. If the player himself is not satisfied with the contract proposed by the buyer, the negotiation may also break down. Such examples abound.

The current situation is that Newcastle offered a price that Hoffenheim could not refuse, and Hoffenheim also agreed to Newcastle's offer-so does it mean that Long Bisheng must be a Newcastle player?not necessarily.Because Long Bisheng still has a three-year contract with Hoffenheim, if he is unwilling to go to Newcastle, then he will definitely stay in Hoffenheim within these three years-now players have more and more power in transfers, unlike before the emergence of the Bosman Law, players were completely under the control of the club.

Long Yuyun and Yin Xiuping were almost dumbfounded. Although his son has indeed made a fortune after becoming a professional player, he definitely has tens of millions of yuan in deposits now, but there is a club that pays tens of millions of euros to buy him. Is this still our son?He is simply a golden man... No, he should be a diamond man!
Long Yuyun is fine. As a senior fan, he also knows that a player worth tens of millions of euros is nothing in Europe, but there are only a handful of players who can reach this price. Yin Xiuping did some calculations in his mind before asking Ning Xi: "Um...Xiao Ning, is this transfer fee for Xiaolong? Wouldn't that make him rich?"

Ning Xi laughed: "No, auntie, this transfer fee is given by Newcastle Club to Hoffenheim Club, because Aaron is now a player of Hoffenheim, so Newcastle has to spend money to get him... But Aaron is not without benefits, such a level of transfer, the players themselves can get income, [-]% of which will be Aaron's, and there will be a certain amount of signing fees, so many players hope to transfer to bigger clubs. Pretty huge."

Ning Xi paused for a moment, and then said shyly, "Agents can also get [-]% of the profits earned by players... So many agents always encourage players to transfer multiple times to get more income... But whether Aaron transfers this time depends on his personal intentions. As his agent, I will not interfere."

"So that's how it is." Yin Xiuping nodded, but she didn't care too much about what Ning Xi said that she would get [-]% of it. From her point of view, it was only natural for Ning Xi to help Long Bisheng and to be Long Bisheng's manager to get income from it. Otherwise, would Ning Xi be allowed to do free work?

In addition, in Yin Xiuping's heart, Ning Xi has long been her daughter-in-law. It doesn't matter who owns the money. Isn't she going to be named Long in the future...

Long Bisheng looked at his father, Long Yuyun lit a cigarette, and said, "Bisheng, if you want to go to Newcastle or stay in Hoffenheim, it's all up to you. As a father, I don't interfere with you. You can go wherever you think is better. Son, you have always done a good job, and you have surpassed my father's imagination. You don't need to ask me, what you need to ask is yourself."

Long Bisheng pursed his lips and nodded. From a certain point of view, Long Yuyun was not a competent father, because after Long Bisheng was ten years old, he almost lived alone. He trained and grew up by himself, and there were no traces of Long Yuyun at the turning points in his life.

But from another point of view, Long Bisheng’s success today is closely related to Long Yuyun’s strong support for him to play football in the 90s. If Long Yuyun had rudely stopped Long Bisheng from giving up his studies to play football, or if it was because of economic factors that Long Bisheng continued to study and then went to the army, maybe China would have one more excellent soldier, but Chinese football would have lost one super center.

"To be honest, I don't want to leave Hoffenheim. I think you should also know that Hoffenheim is a very good place... I like that place. I just came from a small place, and Yunjia is not too big. Such a small city has an atmosphere that I like... But Newcastle is different. It's a big city. I don't know if I live well there." After a moment of silence, Long Bisheng finally spoke slowly.

"Leeds is also a big city, and the two years you were there were great, and the fans there still miss you to this day." Lu Xiaoshan retorted: "I went back to school some time ago, and many of my classmates were Leeds fans. They all thought that if you were still there, Leeds would have returned to the Premier League long ago, instead of returning to the Premier League this season."

"Maybe you are right." Long Bisheng nodded: "I originally planned that if Hoffenheim didn't agree to let me leave, I would never leave. As long as they continue to give me a contract, then I will sign it. I have my current reputation, thanks to Hoffenheim selling me from the English Championship three years ago... But now I figured it out. If I hadn't left Leeds at that time, then I wouldn't have the achievements I have now. You must know that I was happy in Leeds at the time, and I didn't want to leave Leeds... Leaving will help them more than staying there, so I will leave. Although going to a new environment will definitely bring new troubles and require re-adaptation, but since I have first adapted to Italian football, then English football, and then German football, it is not too difficult to re-adapt to the English environment."

Speaking of this, he took a deep breath: "And I think what the boss said at that time was very correct. A person should not be too comfortable. If he is too comfortable, he will lose the motivation to move forward. I have never gotten rid of the sense of crisis, so I can perform better and better. Maybe now is the time for me to find a new motivation."

"Okay then, I'll start negotiating with Newcastle...don't worry, I will definitely get you a good contract...our boss has money, so there's no need to help him save money. However, it's impossible for a club like this to promise you the main position." Ning Xi said excitedly.

"No matter what club I am in, I have no promise in the contract to get the main position, but I will always be the main player." Long Bisheng said confidently. He is no longer that fledgling rookie striker. He is a European Golden Boot and one of the few outstanding centers in the world. He should have this confidence.

"Well said, son!" Long Yuyun was very happy. He knew that his son had always had a little inferiority complex. Now it seems that being the top scorer in the Bundesliga for two consecutive seasons has filled him with confidence. This is of course a good thing. Long Bisheng is about to turn 24 years old. If a player at this age is not confident, he probably won't have much promise.

"Okay, I'll keep in touch with Newcastle in the next few days...Anyway, Xiao Shan and I have almost played together, Uncle Long, is it okay to stay with you for a few days?" Ning Xi asked Long Yuyun with a smile.

Long Yuyun laughed loudly: "Of course there is no problem...Your Uncle Long is not taking advantage of anything now, just taking advantage of the place!"

XJ is not a well-developed place, but there is one advantage—it’s a big place—after Long Bisheng’s income soared, Long Yuyun and his wife changed places to live. The new home is not luxurious, but it occupies a large area, because Long Yuyun is now running a travel agency, and travel agencies always need a lot of rooms.

After saying this, Long Yuyun shouted at Yin Xiuping: "Honey, help them prepare the best room... one or two? We have a lot of houses here."

"Just one room." Lu Xiaoshan said with a sweet smile.

********************************************
Seeing his mother walking away with the two girls, Long Bisheng heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to sit down, but Long Yuyun sat down one step ahead of him, and then took out a cigarette.

Naturally, Long Bisheng lit the lighter for him, and Long Yuyun leaned over his hand to light the cigarette, and then took a deep breath.

Just as Long Bisheng put down the lighter, Long Yuyun said, "Hey, kid, I think you should explain it to me."

"Explain what? About the transfer? Didn't you already make it clear just now?" Long Bisheng was a little dazed.

"The ghost is talking to you about this." Long Yuyun snorted, "What's the matter with that other girl? Why did she come with Ning Xi? The way she looks at you is unusual."

Long Bisheng looked at his father in admiration: "Have you seen this?"

"Don't forget that your father is a scout." Long Yuyun didn't intend to let Long Bisheng go: "What are you doing? Aren't you and Ning Xi on good terms? Why is there one more... Lu Xiaoshan?"

"Don't think about it, she's just our friend." Long Bisheng blushed when he said this, he was really guilty: "We met in Leeds, and one night she was almost bullied by some hooligans, and I happened to pass by there."

"Oh, I remembered, it was the time when you were injured, right? But you are also a little fleshy, such a big guy, and you were injured by a few gangsters. If it were your father and me, those guys should be lying in the hospital." Long Yuyun said confidently.

"Father, I'm a player, not a special soldier." Long Bisheng said helplessly, "I've known her since then. She and Ning Xi have a very good relationship, and she is the sister of a teammate of mine in Qingdao. Now she is the team doctor of Hoffenheim."

"It's fine if it's not those messy things." Long Yuyun warned her son: "You are not too young now, you should pay attention to your private life... If you want to get married, get married quickly, Ning Xi is actually a good girl..."

"Oh my God." Long Bisheng sighed in his heart, why did he think this trouble was bigger?
