I Just Can Score

Valdano walked out of the room.

Under the dim street lights, the colorful high-rise buildings in the distance would often make him fascinated by the prosperity of the city, but now it only made him anxious.

"How did it become like this?"

"I was obviously here to tell Zhen Shaolong the good news about winning the Ballon d'Or and World Footballer... but it turned into negotiating the amount of the bonus?"

Valdano couldn't understand why the topic turned into 'bargaining'?

result……

As the club manager of the wealthy Real Madrid, Valdano's negotiation skills are of course remarkable, and he finally cut the bonus amount in half, to 500,000 euros in one go.

After the bargaining session ended, Valdano came to his senses and suddenly realized that the topic had gone astray. The highest personal honor in world football, the most influential Golden Globe Award... and bonuses?

Isn’t this an insult to the Golden Globe Awards!

certainly.

More importantly, who will pay the half-million-euro bonus? It can't be the Real Madrid club. It is definitely good for the club to have players win the Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year honors, but paying half a million euros for this is a bit too depressing.

"French Football"?

Which magazine company will allocate 500,000 euros as a special bonus for the Golden Globe Awards?

FIFA, UEFA?

Report this matter to FIFA and UEFA. They will probably find an excuse to fine Real Madrid one million euros, and then use half of it to appropriately supplement the Ballon d'Or?

Not reliable!

All unreliable!

Valdano struggled with his brain cells and couldn't come up with a solution, so he simply told "France Football" the news and let them suffer together!

————

Half a million euros is by no means a small amount!

Zhen Shaolong is the highest-paid football player in the world.

With an annual salary of up to 23 million euros after tax, plus various bonuses, commercial endorsement income, etc., his daily income is more than 150,000 euros, and 500,000 euros is only three or four days' income.

This amount of money is nothing to Real Madrid. In terms of home ticket sales alone, an extra 20,000 tickets sold in one game is almost half a million euros.

"France Football" is different.

No matter how influential "France Football" is, it is simply a magazine. Half a million euros can pay the salary of ten employees for a year. It is not an easy thing to rashly spend half a million euros.

Plus, they think more.

Spending half a million euros to resolve this matter is not unacceptable to "France Football", but the trouble caused by financial disclosure is that they cannot directly transfer half a million euros to Zhen Shaolong privately, but must do so in a public way. , for example, cooperation, or simply use it as a Golden Globe bonus.

Zhen Shaolong definitely disagrees with the former.

If it is a commercial contract, for Zhen Shaolong, half a million euros is equivalent to earning from work, and the value of his cooperation is not only that high, the quotations for endorsements all start at one million euros, a football media reported It's just football, and there's no need to cooperate with stars.

the latter……

Previous Ballon d'Or winners would probably be very dissatisfied, right?

"French Football" has not thought of a solution for the time being. They can only bide their time. At the end of November, they announced the progress of the Ballon d'Or selection. The five stars with the highest votes were announced, namely Messi, Iran Nesta, Ronaldo, Zhen Shaolong and Joey Barton.

This news immediately caused a sensation when it was announced.

Zhen Shaolong's name is associated with the Golden Globe Awards, which always reminds people of last year's events.

Last year, Zhen Shaolong refused the Golden Globe Award and had a very unhappy relationship with "France Football". "France Football" only announced the five candidates with the highest votes and did not announce the exact number of votes. But as expected, Zhen Shaolong He is definitely the first-place vote-getter, so will he accept the Ballon d'Or?

Many people are happy to discuss it.

Another big topic is Joey Barton. Button's selection is really surprising. Compared with the other four candidates, there is a huge gap between Barton's technical level and reputation in world football.

The British "World Football" gave the reason for Button's selection, "Button performed very well last season. He was the double assist leader in the Premier League and the Champions League, and was also the best midfielder in the Champions League. It is natural for him to become a candidate, and game data is the basis for selection. An important reference for people, such as Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and other stars, will be considered outstanding because they score enough goals and assists!"

There is some truth to what "World Football" said, but fans prefer to understand it as, "Barton was introduced by Zhen Shaolong. Most of his assists were given to Zhen Shaolong!"

"Because Zhen Shaolong scores enough goals, Barton will have enough assists!"

In fact.

This year's Golden Globe nominations are inherently controversial.

Among the thirty candidates nominated by "France Football", teams participating in the Champions League finals and champion teams of the five major leagues will account for half.

Newcastle United is the double champion of the Champions League and the Premier League. Naturally, several players will be selected. In addition to Zhen Shaolong and Joey Barton, Michael Owen and Milner were also nominated and were listed among the thirty candidates. Several people entered The list of candidates is a controversial topic, and their performance in the game is not at the top level.

But no matter what, Joey Barton has definitely entered the top five, but his technical strength and the impression of a bad guy left by the outside world are a little unacceptable to fans.

Early December.

Real Madrid ushered in a new round of the league. They faced Almeria at the Bernabeu Stadium. Two days before the game, the tickets were sold out. Just because Pellegrini announced the squad in advance, Zhen Shaolong's name was prominent. In the column.

Many Real Madrid fans expected Zhen Shaolong to play in the game, but what disappointed the fans was that Zhen Shaolong was not included in the starting lineup.

Real Madrid performed well in the first half and scored a goal to suppress Almeria.

Ten minutes into the second half, the surrounding stands were filled with cheers from fans. They all shouted Zhen Shaolong's name, hoping that Real Madrid would let Zhen Shaolong play.

Subsequently.

Pellegrini replaced Zhen Shaolong.

The game was originally planned for Zhen Shaolong to play. After returning to Real Madrid, it was time for him to reappear on the court.

Zhen Shaolong still maintains steady efficiency: he scored a goal in less than thirty minutes of playing.

When Zhen Shaolong scored, the surrounding stands were filled with crazy cheers. Many fans couldn't help but stand up and applaud, shouting at the top of their lungs.

When Albiol scored in the first half, the fans only gave limited applause. Looking around at the enthusiasm in the stands, Albiol felt that the fans were just clapping politely. He felt a sadness flowing through his heart. But there was only a wry smile on his face.

Albiol was indeed a little uncomfortable.

As a defender, the number of attacks is extremely poor, and it is very difficult to score goals. It is rare to score goals precisely because they are few, but the fans don't seem to be very cold.

Where is Zhen Shaolong?

This guy scores goals often, scoring only one goal in every game is considered rare, but as a result, a "very ordinary goal" can get such enthusiasm from the fans.

"It's not fair!" Albiol could only sigh.

The game is over.

Real Madrid did not score again, and Almeria did not score Real Madrid's goal.

The final game ended 2-0.

This round of the league went very smoothly, except that Real Madrid won Almeria at home, and Zhen Shaolong came off the bench to score a goal. Overall, there was nothing special to talk about.

Five days later.

Real Madrid's away challenge to Valencia has become the focus of La Liga. Valencia, Villarreal and Sevilla have always been considered the 'third tier' teams in La Liga. They have the strength to challenge Real Madrid. With Barcelona's dominance, Valencia has an even better chance of winning the game at home.

but……

They seemed to be out of luck.

If Valencia can play against Real Madrid in one or two rounds in the morning, they may have a real chance of winning, but Zhen Shaolong has recovered and is starting for the first time since returning to the team, so he will naturally work very hard to compete.

As a result, Zhen Shaolong scored three goals in the first and second half.

C-Ronaldo was not willing to be suppressed in his performance. After failing to score in the league, he finally broke out in one breath and scored a goal in each first and second half.

The other goal belonged to Diarra.

Diarra's performance has always been very stable, and he can occasionally help Real Madrid score goals. His goals are still long-range shots, shooting directly from the outside of the penalty area, making the goalkeeper difficult to guard against.

6 to 3.

This is the final score.

Although Valencia also scored three goals, all three goals came in the second half. At that time, Real Madrid had already completed five goals, and their performance was very casual. The defenders rushed to attack before giving Valencia a goal. Lencia frontcourt opportunity.

After the game, Real Madrid once again became the focus of Europe, and Zhen Shaolong was the focus. A large number of media reported the game in detail with the theme of "Zhen Shaolong returned to the club and his performance is still strong."

C-Ronaldo is a bit pitiful.

Although C-Ronaldo performed very well, he can always be seen on the offensive end, and he also scored two goals personally, but because Zhen Shaolong scored three goals, he is still mentioned in a "incidental" manner, and Not as a news hero.

This is also where C-Ronaldo is depressed.

No one wants to be the second child! !

The second child is always ignored, blocked, harmonized... Ahem, being the second child is very depressing anyway.

C-Ronaldo returned to his residence that day, checked the time and found that it was already 11:30. He couldn't help but pick up his phone and found the number of his agent Mendes and called...
