Chapter 259 Next Stop, Departure!

"gap?"

Raiola had just put down the tableware and wiped his mouth, frowning as if a little displeased.

But in my heart, I admire the other party for holding back until now. After all, my party has already accepted the other party's decent hospitality at this time, so there is no way to behave too badly.

It is estimated that if Raiola knows that there is an old saying in China that cannibals have short mouths, he will definitely feel a lot of feelings?
But the attitude still needs to be done, so Raiola continued to maintain the displeased expression on his face, and said:
"Is this inconvenient?

After all, this involves commercial secrets. It seems that our endorsement contract does not require us to disclose this kind of news, right? "

Hearing this, Lu Kechen also seemed to feel that something was wrong with his question, and he couldn't help but secretly scolded himself for being too anxious!

I saw him get up quickly, then bowed and apologized:

"Sorry, Mr. Mu, Mr. Raiola!

I made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me, and please the elegant Miss Perry, forgive me for my recklessness! "

The so-called stretching out and not hitting smiling people, Lu Kechen's attitude made it difficult for Raiola to continue to make trouble.

So he snorted softly and said:
"Mr. Chen, I think you and I both know the reason why you and your company invited Mu.

The reason why we were able to establish a good cooperative relationship before is also because of your directness and unpretentiousness.

So, if we can, I would like us to avoid innocuous probing, and you don't ask questions that we won't answer.

How about taking your proposal directly, and if we think it is feasible, we will accept your suggestion?

If expectations are not met, we can’t live with money after all, can we? "

Hearing Raiola's words, Lu Kechen was silent for a moment, then seemed to have made some kind of decision, bit his lower lip lightly, sighed and said:

"Okay, Mr Raiola!

I'm really inexperienced in negotiating, so no need to make jokes!

You are right, the cooperation between us lies in being decisive and straightforward.

So I'm going to be blunt.

As for Mr. Mu's transfer this time, our company hopes that you can transfer to Arsenal.

After all, Adidas, the current sponsor of Liverpool, is in a competitive relationship with us, so we are more happy to see you wearing Nike's jersey, which is also conducive to our publicity.

As far as we know, Liverpool's offer should be part of Arsenal's offer.

Although we also put pressure on Arsenal, hoping that they can propose a better contract, but they are currently under great short-term loan repayment pressure due to the construction of the stadium, so they are unable to propose a better matching contract.

And we naturally want to ensure the interests of the players. At the same time, the better Mr. Mu's performance on the field, the greater the benefits we can get.

Therefore, the greatest authority authorized to me by our company's top management is that if Mr. Mu can be transferred back to Arsenal, then the basic endorsement fee will first increase from 350 million euros to 500 million euros.

Secondly, a bonus clause is added. If the player can participate in the Champions League, the bonus is 100 euros and it will take effect this season.

Other bonus terms are up to 30.00% according to the contract, that is to say:

If the player can win the top league Golden Boot during the contract period, the sponsorship fee will be increased by an additional 65 euros.

If you win the Champions League Golden Boot, an additional 130 million euros will be added.

If you can win the Premier League championship, the sponsorship fee will continue to increase by 65 euros.

If you win the Champions League, the sponsorship fee will increase by an additional 130 million euros.

In addition, if you are selected into the best team of the season in the top league, the sponsorship fee will increase by an additional 50 euros.

Of course, if such conditions still cannot match Liverpool's contract, then Mr. Mu's sponsorship fee will be increased by [-]% from the original basis in accordance with the previous contract.

This is the upper limit of the conditions proposed by our company, how about it? "

After saying this, Lu Kechen pushed out all the bargaining chips at once. Although his heart relaxed, a sense of tension arose immediately, silently waiting for Raiola and Mu Jianfeng's reply.

At this moment, Raiola and Mu Jianfeng looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of satisfaction in each other's eyes.

So Raiola quickly calculated in his mind:
At present, Mu Jianfeng's basic endorsement fee is 350 million euros. Last season, he won the Champions League and Serie A double golden boots, and the sum is only 500 million euros.

And this season, the golden boots of the top league are naturally unlikely, and the golden boots of the Champions League are basically out of the question, so if they transfer to Liverpool, which is not qualified for the Champions League, according to the current conditions...

The basic endorsement fee has dropped by 300%, which means that his endorsement income from Nike may only be in the early [-] million!
And when he transfers to Arsenal, he will be eligible to represent the team in the Champions League, which means that the guaranteed income is 600 million euros!
In this way, although Arsenal's weekly salary of 7.5 pounds is far lower than Liverpool's 12 pounds!
But in terms of conversion, the annual salary given by Arsenal is about 390 million pounds, which is about 470 million euros according to the current exchange rate.

The annual salary given by Liverpool is almost 625 million pounds, which is about 750 million euros in conversion!
Plus various bonus terms, and the exposure brought by being able to participate in the Champions League!
Obviously, the transfer balance is once again leaning towards Arsenal!
But Raiola will naturally not express his thoughts, and Mu Jianfeng is a little confused by the conversion rate between weekly salary, annual salary, pound, and euro in his mind, so he hasn't reacted yet. The income of moving to Arsenal has surpassed that of Liverpool!

So one of the two seemed a little unpredictable, while the other was silent and calm, which made Lu Kechen feel a little uncertain.

But such a condition is indeed as he said, it is already the best option given by the top management, and it is unlikely to continue to improve.

Therefore, Lu Kechen, who has no bargaining chips, can only silently wait for the trial of fate-whether to go further to become the youngest person in charge of the branch, or continue to waste time at the headquarters, it depends on this step!

In the end, Raiola tried to continue to raise the offer several times, but Luke Chen insisted on the offer no matter how intimidating he was.

This made Raiola lose his temper for a while, not knowing how to deal with it.

So he had no choice but to propose that he needed to conduct a second negotiation with Mu Jianfeng and the entire economic team, and promised to give a clear answer within a week, and then left Nike New York Company under the respectful escort of Luke Chen.

Subsequently, Raiola contacted Liverpool again, trying to get the other party to continue to increase the offer, but Liverpool considered that the current maximum salary contract in the team belongs to Gerrard, and Gerrard's contract has a maximum salary clause.

Once Mu Jianfeng is offered more than Gerrard's offer, then Gerrard's salary will naturally increase together. In this way, other teams in the team will inevitably demand higher wages.

So after thinking twice, they still rejected Raiola's request to continue to increase the offer.

So, after a week passed, the nervous Luke Chen finally got the affirmative reply from Mu Jianfeng and Raiola!

So the two parties met again at Nike New York on January [-]th. This time, Mu Jianfeng brought lawyer Guo Hanbing with him. After confirming that there was no problem with the contract, he finally signed an additional contract on the basis of the original endorsement contract!

However, after the two parties signed the contract, they did not make it public. Mu Jianfeng and his team moved to London again to hurry up to discuss the details of the contract with Arsenal Club, as well as conduct medical examinations and take pictures.

And on January 3th, after Arsenal's 0-[-] victory over West Ham United, Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger was in a good mood when he was interviewed by the media and was asked about Mu Jianfeng's transfer. .

In this regard, Wenger, who seemed to be wise and wise, showed an uncontrollable smile on his face, and the words that made people laugh afterwards:
"Who is Mu Jianfeng?

I do not recognize……"
