super storm

Chapter 655 Then I have no problem!

As the editor-in-chief of the French Football Magazine said, the European Ballon d'Or can be roughly divided into three different stages of development, which are based in Europe, going global, and globalizing.

To some extent, these three different stages of development also represent the development of European professional football.

Based in Europe, to some extent, due to the limitations of technology at the time, the team could only attract local fans at most.

However, with the popularization of live TV broadcasts, the four major European leagues, led by European leagues, have begun to encroach on the world. The famous Italian Mini World Cup has been talked about by countless fans so far, which means that the four major leagues have begun to go global.

Now, with the popularization of live TV, the Internet era has begun, and European professional leagues have also begun to embrace globalization. All clubs have begun to develop themselves based on a global perspective. This was originally something that only super giants like Real Madrid could do.

Just like the TV broadcasting rights of the Premier League, the biggest head in the past has always been the British mainland, but in the past few years, everyone has begun to realize that the income from overseas copyrights is gradually catching up with the British mainland, and the growth rate is very alarming. In the near future, it will definitely exceed the British mainland.

The other part is the mobile Internet platform, and the growth rate of this part of copyright revenue is also very fast. The Premier League has even begun to study the independence of this part of the business, and vigorously promote and develop it.

On the other side of the Atlantic, the subprime mortgage crisis triggered by the United States is in full swing, endangering the whole world, but on this side, European football is getting more and more prosperous, from Abramovich to the Glazer family to Thaksin, and now the Abu Dhabi consortium, even Hicks and Gillette can be counted.

More and more international capital is pouring into European football, which means that European football is becoming more and more globalized.

But then came a brand new problem, that is, when capital poured in, professional football began to rely more and more on investment, that is to say, it needed money.

If you have money and are willing to invest, you may not be able to achieve success, but if you have no money and are reluctant to invest, it is basically impossible to succeed.

If there is any team in the middle and lower reaches that can upset the league championship, it will be a miracle that shocks the world, and it may not even be seen once in decades, but at the same time, it still needs investment.

It can be seen that transfer investment is the key to the success of professional teams.

……

Yang Yang has played in European football for several years. He dare not say that he is an old fritter, but at least he knows everything he should know.

Florentino promised an extremely bright future and outlined a hopeful blueprint, but there is a key question hidden in it, that is, where will his money come from?
This is a sensitive issue, but at the same time critical.

If you don't understand this point, everything that Florentino promises now is nothing but a mirage.

Yang Yang secretly understood in his heart, and secretly took a look at Raiola. Such offending things were always done by the agent.

The fat Italian knew it well, and after smiling, he looked at Florentino.

"Mr. Perez, please forgive me for offending me." Raiola said with a smile, "I have to admit that your plan is indeed very attractive, but I really want to know, how can you operate such a huge plan? First of all, you need a huge amount of money, and secondly, I want to know, do you plan to complete it in a few years like the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship, or in a short period of time?"

Raiola's question is indeed very sensitive, but it is also very critical.

Florentino still had a kind smile.

As a perennial businessman, he knew very well that both Yang Yang and Raiola were tempted by what he said, otherwise there would be no need to ask such sharp questions, so instead of feeling annoyed, he was very happy in his heart.

But he did not answer in person, but his assistant Redondo answered on his behalf.

"As we said before, having learned the experience and lessons of the first phase of the Galacticos, it is impossible for us to implement it in a long-term manner. Our transfer budget for the first year will be as high as [-] million euros."

"Three hundred million?" Raiola was taken aback.

This is definitely an astronomical sum.

Although Yang Yang was still calm on the surface, he was still taken aback secretly.

"The funds mainly come from three parts." Redondo has obviously experienced storms. Speaking of the figure of 30 million euros, he feels like [-] yuan.

"We have maintained a good relationship with many Spanish banks for a long time. We will borrow half of it from the banks, which is a low-interest loan of [-] million euros. You also know that we are a membership club, and many banks are willing to give us low-interest or even interest-free loans. This is our advantage."

Regarding this point, both Yang Yang and Raiola knew it in their hearts.

"On the other hand, Real Madrid currently has more than 1 million cash in their books, and at that time we will sell a group of players in the team and withdraw a group of funds. I believe that there is no problem at all in getting a transfer budget of [-] million euros. According to our preliminary estimates, we will be able to pay off all bank loans in at most two years."

Later, Redondo said a lot of more convincing plans, so that both Yang Yang and Raiola could be sure that they had indeed made sufficient preparations and very detailed plans for this.

People who are good at capital operations are different. Let alone Calderon, even compared with the two American owners of Liverpool, Florentino's team is amazing enough.

After solving the funding problem, Raiola asked a lot of sensitive questions, and Redondo also answered them one by one.

For example, what is Real Madrid's [-] million euro transfer budget going to be used for?
Florentino's plan is to introduce multiple stars in one go. In addition to Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Cesc Fabregas, Villa, David Silva, Xavi Alonso, Mascherano, Maicon, Ribery, Tevez and other stars have all appeared in the list mentioned by Redondo.

These players are all top stars in the world, especially superstars like Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Kaka.

Redondo said that they are beginning to actively prepare and contact. The specific progress and who to introduce still need to be finalized, but they are very confident that they will be able to create a brand new star lineup next summer.

Zidane also took over at this time and played his role as Florentino's personal consultant. He believed that Real Madrid should learn from Barcelona, ​​take local players as the core, take root in the local area, and cultivate the backbone of the locker room.

At present, the top players in Spain are Torres in Atletico Madrid, Xavi and Iniesta in Barcelona, ​​and it is estimated that Real Madrid can really introduce Valencia's David Silva, Villa, or Liverpool's Xavi Alonso and others.

Judging from the tone of Redondo and Zidane, they are obviously very interested in Fabregas.

Yang Yang has been in the Premier League for two years, and he is also very aware of the strength of Arsenal's midfield.

……

For the explanation given by Florentino's team, Yang Yang and Mino Raiola were very satisfied and even a little excited.

If it is true as they said, the introduction of a group of outstanding current stars will have huge benefits for both Real Madrid and Yang Yang, especially the agent Mino Raiola, who is even more excited.

If Yang Yang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic can play for Real Madrid at the same time, then his agent will definitely follow suit.

However, although the fat Italian is greedy for money, he is not stupid, so he soon talked about another sensitive topic.

That is Yang Yang's personal treatment.

Florentino personally promised to Yang Yang that Real Madrid will definitely give Yang Yang the salary that is most worthy of his status and strength, making him the highest paid superstar in the world, and will never let him suffer.

But there are still some differences between the two sides, that is, the division of portrait rights.

When Florentino first formed the first phase of the Galacticos, portrait rights were still a very new term, and few people even noticed the role of portrait rights, so at that time, including Figo, Zidane, Ronaldo and other superstars, they all made concessions on portrait rights, all of which were given to Real Madrid.

But in the following years, especially after Beckham joined Real Madrid, everyone was surprised to find that portrait rights can also bring such huge profits, and even Real Madrid made a lot of money from the portrait rights of superstars.

Now, Florentino wants to reorganize the second phase of the Galaxy Battleship, and he naturally wants to hold the portrait rights in his hands, so the plan they gave is 50.00%, but Raiola, on behalf of Yang Yang, clearly opposed Real Madrid's proposal, thinking that Yang Yang would not sell any portrait rights.

Redondo wanted to fight for it, but Raiola refused to give in. In the end, Florentino came forward and smoothed the game, saying that these issues can be discussed slowly and there is no rush. The key is that the two sides can reach an agreement.

"Yang, I believe that all of us can sit here. We are very sincere to each other, and you know our plan. I really want to know, what do you think?"

After hearing what Florentino said, everyone looked at Yang Yang.

Whether it will be successful or not is all in his mind.

Yang Yang knew in his heart that this was an opportunity, if he missed it, Florentino would immediately change his target and re-edit his plan, and he might have to choose Barcelona.

Thinking of this, Yang Yang smiled and said: "Florentino, thank you very much for your love for me all the time. I am also very happy to play in Real Madrid, but I have one last question."

Florentino and his team members all laughed after hearing this, and were obviously secretly relieved.

"You said."

"Liverpool..."

"We will help you solve it." Florentino said confidently.

"There is a way?"

"We will definitely convince the Liverpool management."

Although I don't know what Florentino can do, but since he said it can be done, Yang Yang must believe him.

With Florentino's status in European football, he will not talk nonsense, otherwise, what is the difference between him and Calderon?
"Okay, then I'll have no problem."
