Chapter 12 Weekly Salary

After Chu Zhongtian announced that he would transfer to Wimbledon, the media's doubts and sarcasm about Chu Zhongtian's choice reached a climax for a period of time, and everyone was discussing Chu Zhongtian's choice. In fact, those world-class stars have achieved success or returned to their debut teams to play football and retire after falling into shape, and it is not new. However, the teams these stars have gone to are in the top leagues of their respective countries, and few have gone to low-level leagues. Those who went to the American Major League or Qatar League were also for gold hunting. Although they all said it very well, their purpose was money. This purpose was clear.

But what is Chu Zhongtian going to Wimbledon? Does Wimbledon give him an annual salary of 8.5 million euros per year? A reporter is digging into this topic, intending to learn through various channels about the missing contract signed by Chu Zhongtian and Wimbledon. But at present, neither Wimbledon nor Chu Zhongtian has discussed the details of the contract, and there are very few people who have seen this contract. Even if the paparazzi have great powers, unless they bribe the chairman, business manager and head coach of Wimbledon, or Chu Zhongtian's agent and Chu Zhongtian himself.

So various versions of rumors were released. Some people say that Chu Zhongtian voluntarily cut his salary by half and joined Wimbledon Athletics. Even so, Wimbledon Athletics used the new training base as collateral to loan it from a bank to sign Chu Zhongtian. If Samuelson really did this, it would definitely be a huge mistake in Wimbledon Athletics' business strategy - Wimbledon Athletics' ability to go from a club initiated by fans to a professional club in the Championship is not unrelated to Samuelson's careful financial management strategy. Now he has put the entire training base on Chu Zhongtian.

What is he going to make a return on his back and forth? Can Chu Zhongtian's brings help Wimbledon buy more jerseys? This is not realistic at all. You can earn less than 12 million euros by selling jerseys. By then, Chu Zhongtian's four-year contract expires and he takes away the salary of 12 million euros. Wimbledon's economy will be in a state of doom. In other words, Samuelson now signs Chu Zhongtian for a moment of sensation, which is actually a very dangerous time bomb for the young Wimbledon. The explosion is the day when Chu Zhongtian's contract expires and retires.

Some people say that Chu Zhongtian voluntarily cut his salary, but he did not ask Wimbledon Athletic to pay the money - he knew that Wimbledon Athletic Club could not afford the money at all, so the salary was actually paid from his own account. To put it bluntly, he paid himself for his salary and then was qualified to play at Wimbledon. Otherwise, his sky-high annual salary alone would not be able to afford it. This just shows how deep Chu Zhongtian loves Wimbledon Athletic. In order to express this love, he would spend his own money... What a great love!

Rumors like this are flying all over the sky, which makes readers and viewers feel confused and don’t understand which version of the rumors to believe.

In the end, Chu Zhongtian announced the answer himself. In an interview with a Chinese media, he talked about how much his weekly salary was at Wimbledon. "7,000 pounds a week."

The Chinese reporter who interviewed Chu Zhongtian was frightened. When he was preparing for this issue, he had imagined many possibilities, such as the "half salary cut" that is widely circulated and deeply influential. Chu Zhongtian's annual salary should be four million euros, and he thought that it might not be so much, but two million euros.

But I never thought it would be so little... 7,000 pounds a week, 52 weeks a year, and the annual salary is 364,000 pounds!

Is such a salary a former world footballer should enjoy?

The reporter was stunned and even forgot to ask the following questions.

Chu Zhongtian saw the reporter's appearance and knew why he was stunned. He smiled: "What? I think it's too little?"

After reacting, the reporter nodded with difficulty: "Yes... irrelevantly..."

"I think it's normal. I'm not playing football now for money."

Later, the reporter wrote in his interview note: "Dong Chu killed a mortal like me in one sentence - when we think we should try our best to make money as much as possible, because this is a job that makes youthful life. But Dong Chu has already jumped out of the three realms and is no longer in the five elements. People no longer play football for money, but they play football purely for interest and love. Such people cannot compare, and they cannot measure and guess based on the thinking of ordinary people..."

The weekly salary of 7,000 pounds was shocking, and the media hyped this topic in the following days - Chu Zhongtian's weekly salary was simply outrageous. Many people didn't believe it at all when they saw this news, and even thought it was a rumor.

Soon Wimbledon Athletic Club also confirmed Chu Zhongtian's words. They revealed to the media that Chu Zhongtian's weekly salary is indeed 7,000 pounds, but one added to his contract: "It is necessary to ensure that Chu Zhongtian's salary is the highest in the team." In other words, these 7,000 pounds may not be constant, because with the addition of new players of the team, or when other players revise the contract, the salary will definitely change. If someone's salary in the new contract is higher than 7,000 pounds per week, then Chu Zhongtian's salary will be adjusted to ensure his "highest salary in the team".

But no matter how you adjust it, I believe Chu Zhongtian's salary will definitely not be restored to the level of millions of euros... But Chu Zhongtian is really rich, he is money like dirt, and others don't want to criticize anything, so I can only sigh: "Your mother is rich!"

※※The whole world is hyping that Chu Zhongtian will join the team next season, but many people have the same concerns - that is, Wimbledon is still relegated and has been promoted to the English Championship for two seasons, and they are relegated every time. If they are finally relegated this season, will Chu Zhongtian play in the League One?

So the media swears that everyone should not worry. There is a special payment in the contract between Chu Zhongtian and Wimbledon Athletic Club, that is, once the team is relegated, the contract will no longer take effect. Chu Zhongtian can find another place, and Wimbledon will never stop it.

Many people still believe this statement - because they think it is the most reasonable explanation.

Unfortunately, this is also a rumor.

In fact, Samuelson, chairman of Wimbledon Athletic Club, had also worried about this issue. In order to reassure Chu Zhongtian, he did take the initiative to add such a piece to the contract. Chu Zhongtian refused. He said that even if Wimbledon was relegated, he would join the team.

"What's the matter with downgrading? Let's upgrade again." This was Chu Zhongtian's original words at that time.

That being said, Samuelson knew that this was not a simple relegation and upgrade. Chu Zhongtian trusted the team so much and decided to join. If the team was relegated at that time, how could he explain to Chu Zhongtian? The whole world knew that Chu Zhongtian was going to join Wimbledon Athletics, but half a year later he joined a team in the First League. Wouldn Athletics become a joke for the whole world?

He wanted Wimbledon Athletic to take advantage of Chu Zhongtian's joining opportunity to establish the club's image internationally. Therefore, no matter what, the team must relegate, which is the best time for Wimbledon Athletic to establish its own image.

He gave Russell a death order - in any case, it is necessary to ensure that the team can continue to stay in the Championship next season.

Russell also had this idea and must not relegate the team. Anyway, after the team received the 10 million pounds sponsorship provided by Chu Zhongtian, he had the money and confidence to plunder the players he wanted in the transfer market. In fact, Russell had been optimistic about a few of them, but they were all because they had no money and could not buy them. Now, the team has the best image spokesperson Chu Zhongtian, and has money. Are you afraid that you can't find high-level players to play for the team? You must know that being able to play with Chu Zhongtian is the ideal of many players? Who doesn't want to be teammates with world superstars? It's very face to speak out.

In fact, Wimbledon Athletics players also have this awareness - they must not relegate the team, and they cannot hand over a relegated team to their idol.

Russell doesn't need any mobilization. Everyone is working hard to train, hoping to successfully relegate.

Jupiter, who had been making trouble before, was very surprised by the news that Chu Zhongtian was coming. He had never thought that this kind of yy in the locker room would become a reality. He also knew very well who would be the first unlucky person if Chu Zhongtian came - it must be himself, and who would make his position and role overlap with Chu Zhongtian? The head coach would definitely use Chu Zhongtian instead of his own.

He either stayed to compete with Chu Zhongtian for a position, which was doomed to be a defeated war. Regardless of whether he thought he was better than Chu Zhongtian, who was thirty-four years old, he knew who the head coach would be. Another way was to transfer and leave. He had already had this idea, but the head coach just refused to let go. Now there is no need to worry about the head coach not letting go. When Chu Zhongtian comes, Russell naturally doesn't need him.

Jupiter knew that if he had to leave the ball, he would definitely be able to leave this time.

Russell knew what Jupiter was thinking, so he found Jupiter and had a communication.

Russell told Jupiter that he was not in his plan for next season, but by the end of this season, he would still be an important member of the team and would never let him go in January. However, he allowed Jupiter's agent to contact other teams. At the end of this season, as long as the opponent's club can afford the price that makes him feel satisfied, he will let Jupiter go.

In exchange, Jupiter must play for the team for the remaining half of the season, instead of always thinking about making a transfer. If Jupiter does not agree, he will be a substitute at Wimbledon until his contract expires.

"...I believe that after what happened last summer, you must know that I have this ability?" Russell said to the player who was disobedient to discipline. At the age of thirty-five, he would be the brother of Jupiter, who was twenty-five years old, at most, but as the head coach, he showed his due majesty and means, making Jupiter completely forget that Russell was only eight years older than him... After this conversation, in the eyes of his teammates, Jupiter, who had always been the thorns in the locker room, suddenly became honest.

Russell told Samuelson: "The locker room has been swept away, and now the team has only one goal - that is to relegate! Don't worry, the team will definitely continue to stay in the Champions League next season!"

※※※ Wimbledon Athletics attacked everywhere in January, searching for players they liked, waving checkbooks to offer contracts to players they like to attract them to vote.

On the other hand, Chu Zhongtian blocked all the comments that had not stopped, and even during the holidays, he did not forget to train physical strength.

The La Liga is about to rekindle the battle, and he needs to be prepared.

In the last half season, someone wanted to press him firmly on the bench. He knew very well, and all he had to do was stand up again from the bench and tell everyone who was waiting to see him jokes - brother is not old enough to make you laugh at him!

※※※On January 4th, the second half of the La Liga started, but Chu Zhongtian did not make it to the roster. Hiddink's explanation was that he had just recovered from injury and returned from work. To be on the safe side, it would be better to let him rest.

The media obviously don't believe Hiddink's nonsense. Chu Zhongtian had recovered from injury before the winter break. He had been training with the whole team for so long. How could he still be cautious? This excuse has been used once before Christmas, and there is nothing new to use it again.

Chinese media speak out for Chu Zhongtian, while Catalan media is exaggerating the "disagreement between Chu Zhongtian and head coach Hiddink within Real Madrid. For Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, which has an internal strife, is a good Real Madrid.

The Madrid media remained silent. They did not focus on why Chu Zhongtian was not on the roster, but only talked about the players who played in the game.

What about Chu Zhongtian? He didn't talk about this matter, and continued to wait for his opportunity very professionally.

During training, his attitude was impeccable. In the locker room, he did not express his dissatisfaction with Hiddink's arrangements, or took his anger on Shahin and Ozil. He seemed very positive and optimistic, willing to share his fate with his teammates with Wimbledon, and repeatedly explained to everyone about his weekly salary of 7,000 pounds.

Everything is just like before.

But throughout January he did not get a minute of playing time for the team. In all games, including events like the Copa del Rey, he could only sit in the Bernabeu box with Emily, his little daughter, and his away game was sitting at home watching live TV.

When Real Madrid scores a goal, the broadcast camera will be aimed at him. He will also get up and cheer and applaud the team's goals, and will also be anxious about the team's backwardness, just like an ordinary fan.

If you want to see from this surface that there are any problems with Chu Zhongtian and Real Madrid, it is a delusion.

A Spanish media commented on this as "Chu Budu has a wife from the actress and his acting skills are impeccable."

Obviously, they felt that Chu Zhongtian's heart was definitely not as calm as he showed on his appearance.

But they were wrong, Chu Zhongtian was indeed very calm. This kind of calm does not mean that Chu Zhongtian had accepted his fate and planned to sit in the audience for half a season like this. His calmness is that he is not angry about such things, nor is he impatient when he can play the game. He just does his own duties and then waits for the opportunity calmly.

The knockout stage of the UEFA Champions League is about to begin. Chu Zhongtian knows that neither Shahin nor Ozil can handle such a intensive schedule alone, and he will definitely have a chance to play.

※※※Hiddink looked at Chu Zhongtian who was still practicing from a distance and sighed.

He felt that he was suffering this month.

On the one hand, he was under pressure from the club's senior management. Florentino and the others have determined to completely correct Ozil, which must reduce Chu Zhongtian's playing time. Since Mourinho left, Florentino has regained the power to control the team. His head coach has no say in many issues, and Zidane, the sports manager, also looks like a decoration.

On the other hand, there is pressure from the media. After each game, the answer to "Why Chu did not enter the roster again" has become his fixed procedure and must be experienced. At first, he racked his brains to find ways to find excuses, but later he simply refused to talk about this issue: "I only talk about players related to this game." Such an answer caused the media to have rumors that "Hiddingk and Chu are increasingly in conflict", but he didn't know how to respond.

The last pressure naturally came from Chu Zhongtian. At first, he felt that if he treated Chu Zhongtian like this, Chu Zhongtian would definitely make a big fuss with him. If everyone broke up, it would be better that he could just throw Chu Zhongtian into the cold palace and feel more at ease. But Chu Zhongtian did not do this. He did not make any discordant notes in front of the media, nor did he interfere with the atmosphere in the locker room. He worked diligently in training like before, and even practiced himself after the training. The more silent he treated this job, the more pressure made Hiddink feel - facing such an impeccable Chu Zhongtian, he had no idea what he should do... After watching Chu Zhongtian's training for a while, he shook his head and left the training ground.

Maybe this problem can be solved after the Champions League knockout round restarts next month... He suddenly hopes that Chu Zhongtian, Shahin and Ozil can be injured, no matter who it is, there will be no problem...
