[Football] The transfer fee is 10 billion

Alonso didn't answer Ling Yun's question, so the two of them walked into the technical center building one after the other without speaking, took the elevator, and came to Ling Yun's office.

Nick saw the two of them coming out of the elevator and followed them. He was about to ask the two of them what to drink, but Alonso stopped him with a look, patted him on the shoulder, and said gently: "Nothing, we Just don’t let people come in and disturb you.”

Nick nodded, expressing his understanding, and then exited the office, and intimately helped them close the door.

Ling Yun was sitting behind his desk, continuing to work on the unfinished work just now, and Alonso was sitting opposite him, only then remembered to answer the boss's question just now.

"Actually, there is nothing strange about this. People are like this. In a group, it is inevitable that there will be closeness and distance. They are young players from the youth training. They have been training together for a long time. Naturally, their relationship is better. No matter what you say Whether it’s the Spanish gang or the French gang, or Belgium, Poland... Everyone comes from the same country, speaks the same language, and has the same living habits, so it’s easier to communicate with each other.”

Ling Yun ignored him, switching his gaze back and forth between the desktop computer and the laptop.

Alonso went on to say: "But this is not called gang formation. It is a normal relationship between the players, and it has not had any impact on the team's training and games. For example, me, Mikel and I grew up together. Growing up, being of the same age, we are naturally closer than other people."

Ling Yun listened to him while working, and was still typing on the keyboard to write emails. His multitasking didn't affect his thinking at all: "Yes, it's very harmonious now. When you reach the point of interest, there will be differences, so that you can help each other. Form factions and exclude dissidents."

Alonso sighed helplessly: "Boss, you must have thought too much."

Ling Yun raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then continued to bury his head in his work. After a while, he sneered and said, "Brother, people are selfish. I have seen this kind of thing too much. When I first signed up for the group, I was like-minded. Friends play together, and later it becomes a community of interests, and the more people there are, the more things will happen.”

Alonso didn't want to argue with him about this, he picked up a magazine and flipped through it, quietly accompanied him to work, waiting for him to go home from get off work together.

"Change your phone's screen saver." After an unknown amount of time, Ling Yun suddenly said, "It's nothing to be seen by your teammates, but it's not good to be seen by the media or the staff. .”

Alonso gave him two words concisely: "No change."

It turned out that even a stable and mature old man would be so unreasonable sometimes, Ling Yun raised the corner of his mouth: "If you don't change it, don't change it."

Anyway, in fact, that photo only took a profile of his face, hesitating about the light and distance, it seemed that there was only a rough outline, and it was impossible to see his appearance clearly.

He turned the laptop 180 degrees and pointed the screen at Alonso: "Look what this is."

Alonso took a closer look and found that it was an intentional contract about sponsorship, and the two parties were Maserati and Arsenal respectively.

!!!

Alonso remembered that after the polo match, he followed Ling Yun to meet the president of Maserati in England. At that time, Ling Yun discussed this topic with the other party, but the other party obviously had no intention of cooperation, because the audience of the football match was not It is not the target customer of Maserati, and the brand is more inclined to polo, a high-end noble sport.

After this incident, Alonso discussed this incident with Ling Yun. He thought that the person in charge of the brand was right. Who wants to spend money on advertisements that have no market?

He thought that Ling Yun had already given up on this idea, but he didn't expect that after only one month, Ling Yun had already started talking about the intentional contract with the other party.

"You... you're progressing a bit fast."

Ling Yun turned the laptop around again and continued working: "Of course, our sponsorship cooperation with Citroen is about to expire in summer, and I have made it clear to the other party through the Ministry of Commerce that they will have a strong competitor with a high price. The feedback given to me by the other party is not very positive, since they don’t give much negotiation for contract renewal, I naturally have to prepare for my next move.”

Alonso looked at Ling Yun with a vague smile on his lips. He knew that his little friend's tail was already up in the sky, and he was waiting for him to ask how Ling Yun paid for that high-ranking car. Enterprises, to sponsor football, a very working-class sport.

However, Alonso just didn't speak, picked up the magazine again, and flipped through it aimlessly.

Ling Yun had almost finished his work today, and knocked on the desk: "I know you have questions to ask me, so hurry up and ask."

Alonso shrugged: "No."

"Really?" Ling Yun stood up, walked around the table and came to the other side, "Think about it carefully."

Alonso also stood up, then picked him up by the waist and put him on the desk, took his hand and hugged his neck: "Well, since my boss wants to show his working ability , let me ask with difficulty, how did you do it?"

"Get out!" Ling Yun smiled and punched him on the shoulder, "Football is the number one sport in the world, and its audience is definitely not just the working class."

"Think about it, Arsenal already has close to 4000 million fans around the world, how much? Not too many, look at Manchester United, look at Real Madrid, look at Barcelona... We have a data analysis team, but I spent a lot of money to put They poached them from Kroenke, and only asked them to analyze the value of the players in the transfer market and the various indicators in the training. An analysis of the fan groups of the official social accounts of major clubs at this stage."

In fact, Alonso didn't have much interest in what he said, but he liked to see the brilliance in his eyes and the self-confidence naturally revealed in his expression when his boyfriend talked about Ling Yun's business development.

He has always known that Ling Yun is a very good manager. It is not difficult to see from the fact that the club has made rapid progress in the two years since he came to Arsenal. This kind of achievement is not limited to the team's achievements in various major competitions. It also includes various aspects such as the club's commercial value, expansion in different fields, number of fans, image, reputation and status.

"I asked them to analyze age, occupation, income, hobbies and other aspects. In fact, it is not difficult to find that although there are not many people who play football, there are many people who watch football, from the royal family to politicians, from the rich As for workers, everyone likes to join in the fun. Isn’t the president of Rwanda also a fan of Arsenal? William is also a fan of Aston Villa. The average number of people watching each game of the World Cup exceeds [-] million every year. The brand sponsors a team , What is needed is not the team's ability to bring goods, but the broadcasting rights, to be seen and followed by more people."

Ling Yun put his hand on the back of his boyfriend's head, inserted his fingers into his thick hair and rubbed it gently: "If I remember correctly, you became the spokesperson of a well-known car company not long ago, may I ask you?" Mr. Lonzo, can all your fans afford a Porsche?"

Alonso didn't want to listen to his nonsense, put his arms around his waist, pulled him into his arms and kissed his lips directly.

He wanted to do this when he was in the locker room, but at that time he suppressed his desire because he thought that someone would come in at any time, and now he was in Ling Yun's office, and he had greeted Nick before, so, all the time Restrained people also become a little unscrupulous.

In the mid-May weather, Ling Yun usually only wore a shirt in the office, and he could clearly feel the hem of his shirt being pulled out by the hands around his waist...

As usual, this kiss lasted for a long time, until a domineering president whose vital capacity reached the limit was a little dizzy, and his boyfriend reluctantly let go of his lips.

Ling Yun leaned on his shoulder and glanced at the direction of the French windows. The curtains were not drawn, and his office floor was not high. Fortunately, there were no high-rise buildings around. The first team's dormitory building was on the other side, and the youth training Farther away, don't worry about being seen.

But he still held someone's wanton hand and whispered in his ear: "No, I don't want to be here."

Almost as soon as his voice fell, Alonso stopped the movement of his hands, then hugged him off the table, carefully arranged his clothes for him, and smoothed the wrinkles of his shirt: "The work is over Is it? Go home when it’s over, if it’s not over, just take it home and continue doing it at night.”

Ling Yun leaned on the edge of the table and looked at him lazily: "Don't you hate me working at home the most?"

"Then go to the dormitory, and then you come back to work, and I will stay with you any night."

Ling Yun took his hand, interlocked his fingers, looked down, and felt that something was missing: "Okay, then go home."

When the two came out of the office, Nick was shocked to see Alonso holding Ling Yun's notebook and his suit jacket in his right hand. He felt that his boss had not only found a boyfriend, but also had more A father who wanted to steal his job as a little assistant.

He stretched out his hand to take the things in trepidation, but Alonso avoided it calmly. Before Ling Yun could speak, he made the decision for the boss: "It's off work now, I wish you a happy weekend, remember to come the day after tomorrow Watch the game."

Nick went to see Ling Yun, the latter nodded and told him something about his work before leaving.

When he got in the car, Ling Yun remembered that he was interrupted by a tender kiss before he finished speaking, so while his boyfriend was concentrating on driving, he added another sentence: "Actually, I told you just now. You have said so much, it is not enough to impress our noble and glamorous future partner, but they finally chose to negotiate with me, the most important reason is that they saw the extraordinary strength of China behind me enterprises, and the huge Chinese market."

Alonso didn't quite understand why he suddenly brought up this topic again, but he directly grasped the key word - China.

Only to hear Ling Yun continue to say: "This year I temporarily changed the team's pre-season plan. I don't plan to take you to the United States, but to China."

"Go to China." Alonso and Ling Yun have lived together for two years, and he has a little understanding of the Chinese people's style of doing things quickly and vigorously, but he still can't help but feel a little worried, "Is it too late?"

"There are still more than two months to prepare, what's too late?" In the eyes of Ling Yun, a master of time management, this kind of thing needs to be worked overtime, and he can urge the team to come up with a plan in a week.

"For the first time, the International Champions Cup has expanded to the Asia-Pacific region. Many clubs want to go, and the competition is a bit fierce. I need to fight for this."
