Chapter 522: The appearance of the giants

Andrew's agent company is booming, and its signed players have exceeded 200, and most of the first-line stars are still Millwall stars.
His company in the industry must be concerned about every day. For their business intelligence, the most important one is the first-line star's broker contract.
As it happens, Henry's agent is about to expire. Since winning the European Youth Championship in 1996, Henry has had a four-year partnership with this agent.
The broker's contract is usually only two or three years. Henry's contract with the broker is signed once every two years. This year, it is just time to renew the contract.
This time is not just Andrew. Others, regardless of their fame or strength, want to become Henry's new agents. The name is for Henry's service. In fact, it is not about making money.
Henry's popularity is much faster than he thought, and he may not have adapted to this change.
After winning the league for two consecutive years, winning the Champions League, and being the best shooter, the national team has continuously won international championships. In the Intercontinental Competition, dreams may not be able to make such a wonderful dream.
He hasn't been able to adapt to the changes yet. There is only one thing that the agent needs to do in the summer: renew the contract with Millwall and try to get a good contract.
He was not greedy, and his weekly salary of 25,000 rose to 40,000, and he was satisfied.
To his surprise, the agent messed up.
The renewal was not negotiated, and he would soon become the target of Millwall.
So he received a phone call from the agent on the way to catch the plane: Don't call me again.
This is obviously not to renew the contract with this agent.
Originally, the role of the 10% of the agent's Mr. is to give the player peace of mind to play, and other trivial agents to smooth out, as much as possible to increase the player's income, but mess up the matter, this will not only question the ability to work, of course The laid-off notice was issued by the employer.
It took less than 3 hours from the time he received a call from Aldridge to the flight he landed in London.
During these three hours, a lot of things happened, Millwall held a press conference, and Andrew came to interview Aldridge.
Henry got off the plane and turned on his phone to get on the taxi, and he received a call from Trezeguet.
Trezeguet told Henry the truth. He was meeting Andrew at a coffee shop in the city for Henry.
Henry looked at the time. It was less than the usual training time for the team in the afternoon. He planned to go to the appointment. After all, Andrew's identity meant that the appointment was of great significance.
Sitting in the taxi, Henry was very worried. Andrew was the agent. He heard about it. Many teammates are Andrew’s employers, but everyone is mainly playing football together and never talked about it.
But from the occasional chat of teammates, you can vaguely understand that Andrew.
Work efficiency is the first priority.
Klose wanted to buy a new house, and he completed all the procedures in less than a week, and was very satisfied with the new house. This must be Klose entrusted to Andrew to be busy.
Schneider, Nedved, they have a joint venture to invest in a winery, they are completely hand in hand, and Andrew is the one-handed agent from the beginning to the end, which makes them very satisfied. I heard that they are occasionally interested, and they will go to France with their own. Wine tasting in the winery, winery in France, travel to and from England, only three hours by plane.
The most important thing is that these teammates have a lot of business contracts, but the timing is very reasonable, and they will never be delayed. They often see endorsement ads that they shoot together in groups in fashion magazines. The handsomeness is certain and can not allow commercial activities. It's the most important thing that affects the work of my job.
Henry suddenly had a strange idea.
Why didn't Andrew come to recommend himself as his agent when I transferred to Millwall?
In fact, Andrew is also to avoid suspicion.
He became the agent of Schneider, Klose, Nedved, and so on, when these players had no agent at all.
When Henry transferred, there were already agents.
Also because Henry is playing for Millwall, Andrew is not good to come home and recommend himself. It is easy to be misunderstood as the "overlord clause". If the player transfers to Millwall, is it necessary to be signed by the Aldridge brother company? Player?
Andrew's choice of meeting place is not a hidden place, but at least it is not the name of the paparazzi who will often squat in and out of the place.
Henry was recognized by the waiter as soon as he walked into the coffee shop, but in this place in London, celebrities often haunted, and the people were accustomed to it. At most, they looked at it at most, unless they just hit a fan.
As it happens, this is North London, where Tottenham's local influence radiates. The waiter is a female, who pays attention to football, but is not fanatical. When he saw Henry, he neither asked for a photo signature nor showed a special enthusiasm.
Andrew was sitting in the corner of the deck, just at the entrance of the cafe. When Henry walked in, he stood up and waved and smiled.
Henry randomly asked for a glass of juice and walked towards Andrew.
Andrew reached out and asked Henry to take a seat. The two sat opposite each other. After the waiter brought the juice, Andrew introduced himself, and it was formally known to Henry.
Henry was still feeling a bit heavy. He didn't know what the man with the status of the elder brother would talk to him.
Perhaps it was the boss who told him something through him.
If this is the case, Henry feels that everything has made him feel sad. He and the boss have reached a point where they can't talk directly, which he could not have imagined two months ago.
"Tieri, I have a question for you. Do you still want to play for Millwall?"
Henry heard the other party’s question and raised his head to face bitterness. After a long while, he asked: "The boss asked you to ask me, this is it? Why question this?"
Andrew shook his head and said: "No, you misunderstood, I am not here on behalf of Millwall, nor on behalf of Aldridge. This is a personal conversation with you. I came to try to solve the trouble for you, Let you be free from trouble. So I need to know what you think, what we will talk about next depends on the answer to this question."
Henry said after a moment of silence: "Of course I want to stay on the team. If you let me go, my brain will be blank. I don't know where to go. It seems that it will be a bad decision. But..."
"However, you feel that you want to stay, and the club wants to keep your will. Compared to the two, you are stronger. Millwall, lack of sincerity, makes you feel that you have not been treated fairly and fairly. Right?"
Andrew's words made Henry hesitate for a moment, and finally nodded.
In this era, there are too many things reflected in money.
If Millwall had a small business and the club's top salary was 40,000, even if Henry took 30,000, he would immediately sign a contract extension.
But the club has made a lot of money, and the financial income in the new season must have been greatly improved. The team's top salary has reached 100,000 pounds, and he is even less than half. Under such a strong contrast, if Henry feels fair, then he will definitely crazy.
Andrew took a piece of paper from his briefcase and pushed it forward in front of Henry slowly, saying, "Please review this information."
Henry glanced down at the information on the paper at a glance.
Name, weekly salary, loyalty reward, season bonus cap.
Nedved, 7, 100, 50.
The first Nedved, followed by Larson and Southgate.
The fourth place is Pirlo, 5, 50, 50.
Pirlo followed Ronaldinho, but Ronaldinho did not have loyalty rewards, because Ronaldinho played for the first team, the new season is the fourth season, and strictly calculated, the past was two and a half seasons.
Ronaldinho is followed by Schneider, Materazzi, Zambrotta, their weekly salary is 4, the loyalty reward is 80, and the season bonus is also 50 cap. Their loyalty reward is higher than Pirlo, also because they come from Pirlo One year earlier.
Later, there will be some substitute players. The highest weekly salary is Glennshire, 20,000, and the lower one is Lampard, 15,000. Gattuso has been promoted in the new season. The weekly salary is only 30,000. .
The lowest grades are Keller, Villa, Joe Cole, Ferreira and they have a weekly salary of exactly 10,000 pounds.
At the end of the list, Henry saw his name.
The weekly salary is 5 and the season bonus is 50. There is no loyalty reward.
Henry understands that 5, represents a weekly salary of 50,000. Simply calculating, the club may have to spend 3 million pounds in salary and bonuses on him a year.
Henry shook his head and said, "I don't understand."
Yes, he didn't know the authenticity of the data, or what the number behind his name represented. It was Andrew's wishful thinking that Henry should earn so much, or something else.
Andrew said lightly: "You should know that I am the agent for most of the players on this list. Their summer contract with Millwall was contracted by me personally, so this information is true, and you also You can ask your teammates for verification in private. The point is you, Millwall has prepared a contract for you with a weekly salary of 50,000, a season bonus of up to 500,000 pounds, and a period of 5 years, but your agent refused, and Ask for a contract with a weekly salary of 75,000 and a season bonus of more than 1 million pounds..."
Andrew didn't finish his words, Henry interrupted him directly and shook his head: "No, this is not the case, no! I just want a contract with a weekly salary of 40,000 pounds, but the club is only willing to give me 30,000 pounds!" This is the truth."
Andrew listened to Henry's decisive words and chuckled, saying, "Truth? Thierry, I think you only need to calm down and think about it to understand what is the truth. You need 40,000 weekly salary, Millwall only gives 30,000, a difference of about 500,000 pounds a year, your contract is only two years left, Millwall rejected Juventus’s 40 million pounds offer, the truth?"
The players themselves rarely think about these things, especially the terms of the contract, etc., are all handled by the agent, and the players just play well.
So Henry had never thought about this before, and now the whole person is stunned.
This is the simplest arithmetic problem.
Is Millwall risking a loss of 40 million pounds in order to save one or two million pounds?
"And, when you understand the salary system of the Millwall first team, you should understand that my brother, Audridge, has unparalleled ambitions, and he has the courage that ordinary people do not have. Can compete with the giants, they also have to look like the giants, but you have calculated the salary of the first team? Over 60 million pounds a year! This is the limit, once Millwall won one or two valuable trophies in the season The bonus expenditure will increase this part of the expenditure by another 10 million pounds. Four years ago, as the world's highest operating income club, what was the net income? Less than 60 million pounds. By this time next year, a professional statistical agency for football data A heavy news will be reported that Millwall is the club with the highest operating expenses in the world! Because the club also bought a dedicated airliner for the team's global battle, at the same time, the Lion's Cave Stadium was rebuilt, and the entire commercial chain around the new stadium Build costs, etc., Thierry, do you know what the number of Millwall’s fiscal expenditure budget report this season is? 157.3 million pounds! You would also think that the club will have a weekly salary of 10,000 pounds, or rather Have you spent half a million pounds a year on your expenses to this point?"
Andrew's words made Henry shocked and speechless!
