Chapter 34 Renewal Differences...(1/2)

Under the leadership of the beautiful mixed-race secretary, Godo walked into the office of Lecco, the football director of the St. Paul Club.

Then he sat slightly on a mahogany sofa covered in genuine leather. The sofa and the backrest were soft, but Godo sat very straight and cautiously.

He knew the value of this sofa.

Because the place that was not wrapped in genuine leather was exposed with the skeleton of Brazilian mahogany.

Brazil wood is an extremely precious wood, and is now on the verge of extinction in Brazil, a country that once grew in large quantities.

This is a high-end furniture material and an excellent material for making violin bows.

Furniture made of Brazilian mahogany is rarely seen in Brazil today.

But in this office, not only the sofa, the coffee table, desk, bookcase, and even... the floor are made of Brazilian mahogany!

The entire office exudes a luxurious atmosphere.

Such a tall and elegant decorative style is quite in line with the temperament of the St. Paul Club.

The St. Paul Football Club is different from other teams in the city. Many of them support are wealthy middle class or rich people.

Just like Kaka's father, they don't have to worry about money, they don't lack money.

The beautiful secretary asked softly, "What are you drinking, sir?"

Godot replied in a tight voice: "A cup of black coffee, add more sugar, thank you."

The secretary gave Godot a charming smile, then twisted his plump butt and walked out.

Godot's performance is indeed a bit nervous.

After all, this was the first time he had come to such an environment to discuss a contract with people. And the contract was negotiated that was very important to him.

Sao Paulo is a member of the "Thirteen Clubs" that is sufficiently good at covering the sky in Brazil, and is a well-known wealthy family in Brazil.

In the past, Godot had never had such qualifications, and was able to directly enter the core of the Thirteenth Club and negotiate contracts with their senior management.

He is not a successful agent. He has been in this industry for twelve years, and the number of players under him has not exceeded fifteen at the most, and none of these more than ten players can enter the first teams of the thirteen strongest giants in Brazil.

Most players play in low-level leagues. As an agent, he is unknown in Brazilian football. He is not a big deal like Juan Ferger.

He searched around for the children who seemed very talented, and then signed agent contracts with them, putting the ownership of the players in his own hands. He then sent the children to the echelons of professional clubs or football schools.

When they kick it out, they can take the opportunity to make money.

However, he had always had problems with his vision of people before, and he never found any truly potential players...

Glory is the best talent he has discovered, and it is also his biggest reliance on soaring into the sky.

Glory did not disappoint him. If it weren't for Glory, he would probably never have had the opportunity to enter this luxurious office in his life.

Now he is going to talk to the St. Paul Club about improving the contract for glory.

Although he has not dealt with the senior management of the St. Paul club, he also knows that any club is the same. When it comes to contracts, they will focus on their own interests rather than the players.

This requires oneself to strive for more benefits for glory, and the same is true for the existence of a broker.

※※※

St. Paul's football director Leco walked around from behind the table. He had seen Godo for the first time as the youth team training captain, when Godo came to try out with glory.

He still remembers Godot's performance as almost an idiot as Glory...

At that time, he almost thought these two were clowns in the circus.

If Mauro hadn't insisted, he would never have signed glory.

But just like that, after a trial trial, he turned around and forgot about glory.

Who would have thought that this glory is the name he has heard the most recently!

The Chinese boy he didn't care about at the beginning has now become a hot new star in Sao Paulo...

He had to sigh that the world was changing so fast.

Because of the potential shown by glory, his attitude towards Godot has improved a lot this time.

He knew very well that the ownership of Glory belonged to Godot, which was the practice of 99% of Brazilian agents - they discovered those talented poor boys, and then signed contracts with them to provide them with food and accommodation, provide them with training, and help them find jobs, but their ownership belonged to the agent. As long as one of them became a seedling, the rewards brought far exceed the investment. In jargon, "discovering a good player is discovering a gold mine."

When the agent completely controls a talented player, as the club's senior manager, he has to be polite to this agent.

He kept the necessary politeness to Godot.

He stretched out his hand and shook hands with Godo.

After the greetings, Godot explained his intention to come to find Leco.

He carefully chose words and tone, and his attitude was still a little humble.

Who told him that he had always been a failed agent before and did not have the confidence or qualification to challenge the "Thirteen Club"?

After hearing Godo's words, Leco smiled and said, "You don't actually need to come to me. I will contact you in the near future. Mr. Godo. The club is considering providing Rong with a brand new professional contract."

With Rongguang's current performance and still holding the lowest-level youth contract, it is really unreasonable.

"This is our newly prepared contract, you can take a look first."

Godot took over the contract, lowered his head and began to look serious.

But he didn't turn many pages, and then raised his head in surprise and looked at Leco.

"Ten-year contract term?"

"Is there any problem?" Leco asked with a smile.

Looking at Lecco's polite smile, Godo's previous nervousness and caution suddenly disappeared.

The anger of being despised gradually emerged.

In the past, he could tolerate no matter what insults and contempt he faced.

Because he has no confidence to compete with the other party.

But this time, he couldn't bear it.

If you bear it, his and Rongguang's future will be over. All the initiative is in the hands of each other.

Ten-year contract, this is absolutely unreasonable!

"There's a big problem, Mr. Leco." When Godo spoke again, his throat was no longer tighter than before, and it was much smoother and more natural. Glory gave him confidence, and he firmly believed that with a talent like Glory, their future would definitely not be bad.

"Either Rong nor I can accept the ten-year contract term." He said this without hesitation and decisively.

"But we think this is a very reasonable period. Rong is only sixteen years old, and ten years later, only twenty-six years old. And we all know that he cannot stay in St. Paul for ten years. This contract is just to make peace with both parties - St. Paul doesn't want to make a penny when he leaves the club."

Leco still said with a smile.

However, the words did not hide their importance to the interests of the club.

This is also the momentum of a big club - we never hide what we need to earn from you.

Godot shook his head firmly: "No, the ten-year contract is too long, we can't accept it."

Rongguang only said a few days ago that he wanted to go to Europe. Even if it was not that early, it would be as high as three or four years. Rongguang is now sixteen years old, and nineteen or twenty years later, it is just right to go to Europe.

If you sign a ten-year contract with Saint Paul, it would be a big deal... For a whole decade, Saint Paul will control the life and death of glory. As long as the Saint Paul club is unwilling to let go, glory will not go anywhere.

Although he didn't think that Glory could really stay in St. Paul for ten years, it was always uncomfortable to have such a contract bound.

What if a European team is attracted to Glory, but Sao Paulo uses the excuse of transfer fees as a blocked person?

As an economic man, he must minimize this risk.

Seeing that Godot's firm attitude was, Lecco actually didn't expect the other party to really accept a ten-year contract period - as long as the other party's agent is not a fool, he would not accept it.

"Okay, then how about eight years? Rong is just a beginner now. Eight years have allowed him to stay in the team to learn and improve himself. When the contract expires, he will only be twenty-four years old..."

Godot interrupted Leco: "We can accept the contract term for at most four years, Mr. Leco."

Hearing this number, Leco chuckled and was very disdainful. It seemed that in front of him, the agent Godot was not qualified to talk to him about such conditions.

Four years?

Four years later, the glory is twenty years old, which is the best time, so let him run away?

Don't even think about it!

"This is impossible, Mr. Godot. I think you should consider the conditions given by the club carefully. After you think about it, you can call me."

After saying that, he reached out and wanted to shake hands with Godot.

This is going to see off guests.

Although Glory reflects his potential and has also been favored by the first-team head coach, Leco is not willing to invest too much politeness in Godot. Once the limit is exceeded, the opponent must know whose territory it is.

Glory is talented, but so what?

In Brazil, the most insignificant thing is genius.

He will not waste too much time and energy for a Chinese.

Godot is not Juan Ferger. If the godfather of Brazilian football comes, it will be Lecco's turn to kneel down and lick the other party's boots.

Godot didn't think that a negotiation could be settled, so he simply stood up and said goodbye.
