Greenery Reverses The Madness

Mendes picked a good time to pitch himself in.

Ever since Ye Yifeng joined Monaco, until this week, he actually didn't need an agent!

But now he really needs someone who can help him increase his income in Monaco when Lyon chairman Aulas declares his interest in him and wants to buy him with real money.

Mendes smiled at the dinner table and asked Ye Yifeng a series of questions.

Can you understand if Lyon are really interested in you or are they just trying to embarrass Monaco?

Or is it diverting the attention of the outside world so that they don't pay attention to Lyon's poor record?

Can you figure out the position and attitude of the Monaco management towards you at this time?

Assuming an offer from Lyon comes through, what will be Monaco's reaction?

There is a high probability that Monaco will not sell you, because the club has nothing yet.

But what will Monaco do to keep you?

Because you are burdened with a contract and must play for the team to force you to perform?

Or show your sincerity and give you a better contract?

If the latter, how much will Monaco give you?

Where is the upper limit of their sincerity?

 …

Too many questions impacted Ye Yifeng's thinking, it seemed like a mess.

But Tang Mo, who was sitting next to him, listened and thought at the same time, showing a seriously thinking expression.

In the end, Mendez's closing statement is: If you have a professional, reliable and experienced agent, you don't have to think about these issues, you just need to wait for a good contract that definitely exceeds your expectations to appear in front of you, and then Just sign it.

Ye Yifeng had to admit that what Mendes said made sense.

And very convincing!

Probably in the eyes of Mendes, winning Ye Yifeng is a sure thing.

But at the end of the dinner, Mendes didn't wait for Ye Yifeng to nod in response.

Ye Yifeng only said that it needs to be considered.

Mendes was not in a hurry, he also knew that Ye Yifeng's family members were all in China, some matters, especially those involving money interests, had to be discussed with his family members.

Sometimes the relatives of the agent and the player are enemies. There are also cases in football where players fire their agents and let their relatives act as agents.

The key lies in whether the agent's service satisfies the player.

Whether it can generate income for the players, if it is only to get high salaries in transfer negotiations, the relatives of these professional players may not be incapable, especially when a player is very popular, the clubs themselves will raise prices for each other.

Driving home, James Rodriguez called on the way, and the two chatted a few words on the side of the road under the night.

James Rodriguez said that he was just a middleman, and he was entrusted to make an appointment for dinner. It was very simple. I hope Ye Yifeng would not misunderstand.

Regardless of whether Ye Yifeng accepts Mendes' invitation, or whether Ye Yifeng hires Mendes as his agent, he doesn't want this to affect their relationship as teammates and friends.

Ye Yifeng patted his arm with a smile and thanked him very frankly.

Multiple choices are always right, and having a meal with Mendes and listening to the opinions and analysis of this professional person will not do you any harm after all.

The two then separated.

On the way Ye Yifeng was driving home, Tang Mo asked puzzledly: What are your concerns? I've been watching the news about Mendes along the way. His performance every year is really amazing. Also very powerful.

As Fleet Street said, maybe only Mendes has the supernatural ability, and even parallel imports like Beibei can be sent to Old Trafford.

His relationship with clients also seems to be good.

Everyone knows the well-known things.

Mendes can move Ronaldo to Real Madrid,

It can also allow Mourinho to assume new roles back and forth between the giants, and his clients range from superstars to new stars.

Ye Yifeng shook his head slightly, and said: I don't know, maybe it's because I'm not confident, or to put it another way, it's impossible for me to become his top client.

I still have this self-knowledge.

Also I thought of Ranieri.

Monaco brought me from Portugal to France, allowing me to get better training and game experience in Ligue 1, and also cultivated me.

If I immediately find an agent to go to a showdown with the club as soon as I have made a little contribution, and I think it is not kind to do so.

I deserve more, but I don't think it should be in such a drastic way.

Maybe the matter is actually very simple. I go to talk to the club in a way that is more acceptable to the club than an agent to talk to the club.

At least we can have an honest conversation.

Tang Mo didn't speak anymore, but looked at Ye Yifeng's profile and laughed.

Sometimes he is cute in her eyes.

 …

The next morning, Ye Yifeng said to Tang Mo before leaving home: I figured it out, I'll go directly to the club to talk, if they give me a salary increase, then I'll sign a new contract, then I won't need an agent for a while.

If my talks with the club fall apart, I will leave the matter to a professional like Mendes.

Tang Mo hurriedly stopped him and said, Anyone in the club is smarter than you, so you can't just go over there and put your cards down.

I have an idea for you.

Ye Yifeng thought about it carefully after listening to her words, and couldn't help but sigh: It's bad, you're the bad one!

Tang Mo stood on tiptoe and kissed Ye Yifeng, and said with a smile, Well, I'm so bad, only you can save me, oops, I'm short of oxygen and need artificial respiration.

Ye Yifeng also laughed, kissed her and then drove to Monaco.

In fact, the mood is a little nervous.

The morning training atmosphere at the club was gloomy.

Monaco lost 0:1 to Rennes in the third round of the French League Cup last night.

Martial is the most depressing.

The league didn't prove itself, and the cup game was full and the result was lost!

In other words, only a few main players who were not included in the big roster were not affected. It wasn't that they didn't think it didn't matter if the team was eliminated, but that they wouldn't be as emotionally indigestible as the teammates who played the game and lost last night.

After the training in the morning, Ye Yifeng took the initiative to come to the office of the club's vice chairman Vasiliev.

The club chairman and owner Rybonovlev usually only appears in the box at the Louis II Stadium during home games.

Other times there is no one to be seen at all.

Ye Yifeng doesn't know what the life of the rich is like, maybe they are looking for fun around the world.

The earth is so big, I have to visit every interesting place on the earth, and I don’t know if this life is enough.

The person who is in charge of the daily operations of the club is the vice chairman Vasiliev.

Vasiliev happened to be still there when Ye Yifeng arrived.

His assistant and translator was also present.

Seeing Ye Yifeng coming, Vasiliev frowned and asked, Is there something wrong?

His assistant immediately followed up with translation.

Ye Yifeng cut to the chase: I want to talk about my contract.

After listening to the assistant's translation, Vasilev said displeasedly: You have been in Monaco for less than half a year, and you want to talk to me about the contract now?

The implication is: Are you a little too greedy?

Ye Yifeng heard what the other party said, so he had no choice but to give up.

If you don't think it's necessary, forget it.

He has already regarded the other party as a rejection.

Just as he was about to turn to leave, Vasiliev's assistant stopped him.

Vasiliev also reacted to the news about the Lyon club publicly winking at Ye Yifeng.

Besides, Ye Yifeng's performance in the league is obvious to all.

He asked Ye Yifeng to sit down and talk.

The assistant went to pour a glass of water and put it on the table in front of Ye Yifeng, Ye Yifeng smiled and said thank you to him.

Before Ye Yifeng came in, Vasilev was actually talking with his assistant about the boss Rybonovlev.

Although it is Rybonovlev's private matter, it definitely affects the future of Monaco!

Rybonovlev is fighting the most expensive divorce lawsuit in human history with his wife!

Once Rybonovlev loses the lawsuit, the worst result is that half of his family property will be divided up by his wife!

Then his personal assets will be discounted by 50%.

Shrunk from tens of billions of dollars to more than 6 billion dollars!

Therefore, Rybonovlev can no longer care about the operation of Monaco at this time!

The reason is simple, how much is Monaco worth?

How much is his lawsuit worth?

Instead of worrying about Monaco's business and performance, it's better to have a chat with the lawyer team, maybe you can share some of the family property with your wife, no, your ex-wife.

Six months ago, Monaco made a big and high-profile sweep of the transfer market. Although it would not make Rybonovlev regret doing so, because this is still Monaco's asset, and whether it is spent or not, there will be a final decision when the divorce lawsuit is settled. In other words, what should be distributed still needs to be distributed.

But if he is asked to invest heavily in Monaco in the future, I am afraid that Rybonovlev will have to be cautious.

When he has more than 10 billion US dollars, he can burn 1 billion in Monaco, and he is still a 10 billion rich man!

But if he loses the divorce case, will he still burn the money?

Vasiliev hopes to stabilize Ye Yifeng first, although Ye Yifeng's contract is for four years, even if he is not given a salary increase, it will be fine.

But if you really want to manage the club as a business and treat the players as employees who can be squeezed indefinitely, then the club will collapse from within sooner or later!

Treat a valuable player with a human touch!

If a player has no value, the club can do some unreasonable things.

But with Ye Yifeng in front of him right now, the cost of Monaco to win over him will not be very high.

Falcao's annual salary is 10 million euros.

Ye Yifeng's annual salary is 180,000 euros.

Ye Yifeng scored more goals than Falcao!

No matter how reasonable this is, Ye Yifeng is absolutely reasonable!

But Vasilev certainly can't let Ye Yifeng speak loudly.

He said to Ye Yifeng solemnly: Lyon is not really interested in you, Aulas is just disturbing Monaco, and also disturbing you.

However, in view of your outstanding performance in the past few months, I agree that you should be given a raise as a reward for you.

After Ye Yifeng heard the words, he understood what Vasiliev meant.

This is equivalent to Monaco giving him a salary increase, is it a gift?

Ye Yifeng said something with a calm expression. After the assistant translated it, Vasiliev's expression turned ugly.

Someone from Lyon has sent me a message. As long as I transfer to Lyon, they will give me an annual salary of 1.5 million euros, plus a signing fee of 500,000 euros.
