Chapter 816: Super Predator

Southampton has an office in China, located in Longhai. In Hua's Bund New District, in a high-end office building on the bank of the Pujiang River, the rent is quite expensive, but the scenery is beautiful.

Standing on the balcony of the office building, you can overlook the opposite Longhai City and overlook the Pujiang River, which is very pleasing to the eye.

It's even more beautiful at night!

Almost without exception, the headquarters of some well-known enterprises and even multinational enterprises can settle in the Bund New Area.

Southampton chose to locate its office here for the simple purpose of emphasizing a concept to the world.

The saints are no longer the saints they once were.

Today, Southampton is one of the top teams in Europe and the world.

The status is different, and the style is naturally different.

"Young Master Huan seems to have something to say to me?" Mendez finally couldn't help but ask.

He was convinced that Yang Huan invited him to come out for a walk, and it would not be as simple as just looking at the scenery.

Yang Huan smiled slightly, "Indeed, I really want to talk to you about something." ”

"Young Master Huan, please say, as long as I can help, I will do my best!" Mendes assured without asking.

It's rare to have a chance to hug Young Master Huan's thigh, wouldn't it be a pity if he gave up again?

The world says that Mendes is a superpredator, but in reality?

How many transfers has he handled so far this summer? How much can you earn?

What about Young Master Kehuan?

One James Rodriguez is worth 100 million pounds, one Xavi Martinez, Bayern Munich takes Schweinsteiger in exchange, and has to add money.

Another Modric, Real Madrid not only has to add money, but also has to send a Di Maria at a low price.

That's true for Southampton, but isn't it true for Atletico Madrid?

The transfers of Juanfran , Miranda and Felipe have made Atletico Madrid a lot of money, and the three players have a net income of tens of millions, plus the transfers of Mario Suarez, Raul Garcia and other players.

The Bed Legion have made at least more than €100 million in profit in the transfer market this summer.

In terms of this operational ability, Young Master Huan is the real super predator.

If you want to talk about black, he Mendes can't catch up with Young Master Huan when he asks himself.

"I don't know if you've heard that we in China are planning to launch a huge football reform recently?"

Mendes nodded, "Of course, such a big thing has been reported in the media, and I heard that it was Young Master Huan who took the lead." ”

Yang Huan was noncommittal and smiled slightly, "The government is also considering accepting foreign football institutions to come to China for development. ”

Mendes was a little confused at first, but he vaguely pondered what Young Master Huan meant......

"I can tell you that we have the largest football market in the world, we have a population of more than a billion people, the potential of our youth football, no country in the world can compare, and right now, we have an urgent need for the football population, we want to improve our football level as soon as possible!"

Mendes really understood this time.

"Young Master Huan, you mean, you hope that we will help more Chinese players to go to Europe for training and competitions?"

Yang Huan smiled and nodded, "Not only that, there are already many big teams that are interested in coming to China to establish youth camps, or organize summer camps in the summer. ”

"I don't know about the other teams, but in the next three years, we will build three large youth bases across the country, Atletico Madrid, Monaco, Inter Milan, Ajax and Benfica, and in the coming years, we will regularly host national football summer camps."

"What I can guarantee is that in the not-too-distant and foreseeable future, our Chinese football population will emerge in an endless stream, and this market will become bigger and bigger, so big that you can't even imagine!"

Mendes was dumbfounded.

With a huge population base of 1.3 billion, China's football market has always been impossible for any European team to ignore.

Especially in recent years, with the strong rise of China's economy, more and more European teams have attached great importance to the Chinese market.

But in fact, this cake looks big and delicious, but in fact, it is not easy to eat.

One important reason is that almost everyone sees a visit to China by a European team as a trip to make money.

Coupled with the irregularity of the market, this kind of business practice has become more and more ineffective.

That's why, in the past few years, European teams have suddenly shifted direction and gone to North America.

Europe and China, thousands of miles apart, can use the Internet and news, or live television, to spread their influence, but that is too insignificant.

But Yang Huan's appearance seems to have opened a window for European teams.

Everyone found that the Chinese media and fans were very concerned about teams such as Southampton, Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan and even Monaco because they all had a background in Chinese investment.

Especially like Southampton, in just four years, from an obscure League One team, to become the most talked about European giants by Chinese fans, even overshadowing Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Behind all this, it is all because of Yang Huan!

All European teams are aware that if they want to develop the Chinese market, they have to have a Chinese element.

Youth training is undoubtedly a pretty good entry point.

The first is that China's youth training is terrible, and European teams use youth training as an entry point, which is undoubtedly just right to meet this demand.

Moreover, youth training can benefit one party, better close the relationship between the club and fans, and establish a good brand image and commercial value of the club.

If in the past, European teams were completely confused about how to carry out youth training in China.

Then, since last year, Yang Huan took the lead in proposing that European teams cooperate with local Chinese schools to carry out campus football training, which has undoubtedly opened a door for everyone to get out of the labyrinth.

"In the past few years, there have been European teams coming to China to open youth camps, and basically they are cooperating with Chinese football clubs.

When Yang Huan said this, he smiled confidently and said, "But this time, the situation is different." ”

Mendes somewhat understood what Young Master Huan meant.

China's professional football is backward in all aspects, not only in professional leagues and player training, but also in supporting industries.

For example, brokers.

To put it mildly, Chinese football agents can survive on all kinds of relationships in China, but when it comes to European football, none of them can survive because they don't understand the rules of the European professional leagues at all.

It's like Manchester United brought in Dong Fangzhuo from China back then.

One of the less familiar things is that Audi is Manchester United's car sponsor and provides cars for free to Manchester United's first-team players.

But within European teams, there is often an unspoken rule, that is, when it comes to treatment such as car sponsorship, players often choose the matching grade according to their identity and status.

But that time, Dong Fangzhuo's choice was second only to Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney.

Of course, the sponsors will not have an opinion, but what about the players in the team?

What about the core players of the team who abide by the unspoken rules, and even those who have established themselves in the first team, what will they think of this?

This is clearly the result of the broker's clumsiness!

The player doesn't understand, he can understand it, but the agent doesn't understand either, so what kind of agent is it?

Why are agent predators such as Raiola, Pini Zahavi and Jorge Mendes so trusted and valued by players?

Isn't it because they are capable enough to help the players?

If Ibrahimovic didn't have Raiola, could he be where he is today?

If Dong Fangzhuo can have it, not to mention a predator like Mendes, he only needs an agent with slightly better ability and a certain connection, then he will still stick to Manchester United?

As soon as he saw that he had no chance, he jumped ship and left the team.

Don't you even understand the truth that a tree is dead and a person is alive?

How many professional players in Europe are reborn every year because they change teams?

Of course, Dong Fangzhuo's failed trip to Europe cannot be said to be without responsibility, but the agent's guilt is also very great.

And Yang Huan's idea is also very clear, that is, since the local agent is not good, let the European agent come.

At the very least, people are professional!

As for an agent predator like Mendes, there is no need to worry too much.

Human traffickers are not scary at all, what is scary is that even human traffickers don't look down on you!

If you can get a trafficker like Mendez to find a way to sell you, congratulations, you've made it!

Moreover, from beginning to end, the players who were killed by the agent have really never been seen.

On the contrary, players such as Anelka and Ronaldinho were all killed by some of their own brothers and relatives.

Ronaldo's agent was enough of a pit back then, right?

Say change it, what's the matter?

What age is this, is it really possible to bind a contract for life?

On the contrary, super predators like Mendes and Raiola, to put it mildly, as long as you have a little strength and a little level, they have the ability to run you to the mainstream European leagues and play the game!

Even a player like Bebe can go to Manchester United at that price, what else is impossible?

Mendez stood on the balcony, facing the scenery of the dragon sea on the opposite bank, he thought a lot.

He was well aware that China was indeed a gold mine, a treasure trove.

Especially in several teams under Yang Huan, he is determined to enter the field of Chinese football youth training in a big way, which undoubtedly strengthens his idea.

With an idea, then he was originally entangled in some things, but he also sorted out the clues and made a decision.

"Young Master Huan, I will consider your suggestion carefully."

Yang Huan nodded, traffickers like Mendes often have a set of scouting networks with vicious eyes and excellent efficiency.

Once they decide to go to China, they will definitely do everything they can to tap into football talent.

Because that's what they do for a living, aren't they?

Of course, Yang Huan will also propose that the government and competent authorities introduce a series of restrictive policies to protect players.

"Young Master Huan, there is something I want to discuss with you." Mendez suddenly said seriously.

"Oh?" Yang Huan was a little strange, "Let's hear it." ”

"I won't tell you the truth, I'm engaged in the brokerage business, and sometimes there are some things, so I have to be more considerate of Young Master Huan."

Yang Huan nodded and snorted, probably knowing what was going on.

But from Mendesken's initiative to say it, it was quite frank.

"Say it!"

'Chelsea commissioned me to talk to Inter Milan about the transfers of Icardi and Ranocchia, as well as Calhanoglu from Hamburg.

When Mendes said this, his eyes were fixed on Yang Huan.

He found that Young Master Huan's face was a little uncertain, and he didn't seem to be very happy.

"Of course, if Young Master Huan doesn't want to sell it, then I'll immediately go back and push this entrustment, no matter what, I hope to be able to make Young Master Huan a friend."

Yang Huan knew in his heart that Mendes didn't want to offend himself by doing this.

As for Abramovich's side, he must have his own way.

But......
