Chapter 53: Tomorrow's Star (Part II)

"My condition is that the contract will last for five years, with a weekly salary of 20,000 pounds, an increase of 15 per cent per annum, and a signing fee of 100,000 yuan." Woolks finally threw out the standard in his mind.

"The contract period is five years, the weekly salary is 10,000, and the annual increase is 10 percent, and the other ...... 50,000 signing fee. That's Donn's answer.

"The term is five years, the weekly salary is 20,000, and the annual increase is 15%, and the signing fee is 100,000." Witch didn't budge.

Donn was tempted to tell the gentleman in front of him that they were negotiating the treatment of a player, not buying pork at the market. But he reckons that he said so, and the British didn't understand what it meant.

But it won't do him any good if it goes on like this. In the past few days, he has been busy buying Mikel Arteta and dealing with Wood's agent, leaving him with a head and two big, and he is not very prepared for the FA Cup game against Manchester United. Finish early, get out early...... "I make one last concession, Mr. Woods. If we still can't reach an agreement this time, then I won't be in any negotiations with you about George's new contract until the end of the season. Don pulled out his pen, wrote his new terms on a note, and handed it to Woolks.

Wooks took it and looked at it, and there were a few numbers written on it:

5、15000、10%、100000。

He thought about it for a moment, weighed it in his mind, and then nodded, a smile on his face, "I accept it, Mr. Donn." ”

Don had a similar smile on his face, seemingly pleased to be able to reach a consensus. In fact, he was almost exhausted in his mind by scolding this damn agent.

He felt that Witches had chosen this time to come to him completely calculated. When Forest had just signed Arteta, Donn thought he was in a hurry to reach a deal, but instead sat here and argued with Donn before a big game, wasting Donn's time.

Don didn't think of this at first, only to remember when he saw the smile on Woods' face.

This damn bastard!

Wooks stood up and held out his hand: "I'm glad that our collaboration has started well, and I hope we can continue to work together like this in the future." ”

"Of course, I want to." Don Enpi stretched out his hand without smiling, and the tips of their fingers touched together, and they took it back at the same time, which was considered a handshake...... "But I really recommend that Mr. Woods learn more about this business, football and showbiz are not the same thing." ”

Woolks didn't say yes, he didn't say no, he just kept smiling and ignored Donn's words.

The two then agreed to let Woods take Wood to sign a new contract with the club tomorrow morning, and the matter was finally settled.

Sending Woolks away, Donn sat down in his chair, spun around in a half circle, and looked at the training ground outside. All are gone, including the workers who maintain the turf.

He didn't feel so tired playing on the sidelines with Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Jose Mourinho and Rafael Benitez, perhaps because he hadn't been in contact with more savvy agents in the past two years.

George? Wood said to Donn, Billy? Wooks take David? David Beckham exemplifies him as a model of success as a player, and Donn is now suddenly worried about whether Beckham and Ferguson's yesterday will become his and George's tomorrow.

When George has made enough money to worry about their livelihood, will he be able to keep his current state of mind? When he comes into contact with another world of flowers under the leadership of Uks, will the lives of those red men and green women, drunk and gold-obsessed, shake his persistence in the road he is taking?

live in a mansion, drive a famous car, contact celebrities, meet acting stars, have entangled scandals with many beauties, shoot commercials, make movies, and release albums...... What's the difference between this and an entertainment star?

Don suddenly stood up from his chair.

David Beckham is a professional footballer, but at the same time an entertainment star! He kind of knows why Woods is Wood's agent - since Wood is a professional footballer, it is better to train him to be a professional player with the temperament of an entertainment star. No wonder he uses David Beckham as an example.

Don cursed and sat down again.

Well, just let him wait and see George? What kind of big star will Wood become...... the next day, George? Wood came to Donne's office with Woods after practice, and head coach Tony Bush was in the office. Donn and the club's president, Evan? Dogetty was already waiting for him, and after a few brief pleasantries, the two sides sat down together to finalize the contract text, and then Wood put pen to paper to sign his name on the new contract that the club had prepared for him.

Fifteen thousand a week, George? Wood has moved into the upper-middle-income bracket of the Forest.

"George, you're a big star now!" Donn joked.

Wooks seemed to be sure next to him, but in fact, he didn't give face to it: "Well, a big star with a weekly salary of 15,000." ”

Don glanced at him and said nothing. He also knew in his heart that this number would not satisfy Woods, and when Wood's performance got better and better, as he was selected for the national team, Woods would jump out to him and ask for a contract change and a salary increase.

It's just that...... If the Forest team had done well at that time and the club was doing well, then Donn would have been willing to pay him a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds a week.

Seeing off Wood and Uks, Evan and Don stood in the gateway and looked at each other.

"For the next five years, we don't have to worry about defending in midfield. ”

"Tony, I shouldn't have said anything about the team, but I have a suggestion." Evan didn't have much interest in Done's words, and he said with a frown.

"Huh?"

"I've instructed the media in Nottingham to pitch this contract extension."

Donn heard Evan? Dogotti said this, a little surprised. He saw that Evan hadn't been smiling just now, thinking that the boss was not happy about giving a young man this kind of treatment, but he didn't expect it to be high-profile publicity!

"George? Wood is a young man who has been developed by the Forest team themselves, and he has a lot of potential to sit in the first team, which I can see. So I want you to think about whether you can train him to be the future captain of the team......"

"This ......" To be honest, Don had never thought about such a thing before. At best, he thought Wood had the potential to become the core of the team's midfield in the future, but he didn't think about wearing the captain's armband on his left arm.

"In terms of the image of the club, in terms of the feelings of the fans, I think it is necessary to develop a captain of his own. I don't care what position he plays, what style he plays, but he has to be loyal, he has to be cultivated by us, he has to be our people. ”

Looking at the first team, it seems that only George can meet the standards? Wood was alone.

Wes? Mogan was developed by the Forest Academy and was the captain of the youth team, but his own quality was too limited to play in the Premier League. It's certainly impossible for the team to have a substitute captain as the captain. Eastwood is a fan likable, but technically he is not a Nottingham Forester. Only George? Wood, who was not only cultivated by the Forest youth team themselves, but also became a regular in the first team, and now has become one of the most popular young players in England, it makes sense to have such a person as the captain's successor.

Thinking of this, Don nodded: "Okay, I'll think about this seriously." But I think, Evan, this thing has to be slow, George is not suitable to be the captain now, he has a lot to lack. ”

Evan understood: "That's right, so I think it's the right thing to do for you to ask him to learn more from Demy, he should be able to learn a lot from the Italian, and his progress is obvious to all, even rapid." ”

George? The backs of Wood and his agent have disappeared into the alley outside the gate, Evan? Dogety was still looking in that direction.

"A chick protected by a hen under its wings will never become an eagle soaring in the sky. Push him to the forefront, Tony. ”

"Hmm."
