Football coach

"Okay, okay, I see."

In the summer of 2005, Chen Ping was very busy.

Because I was tripped by such and other things, I didn't return to China until the end of May.After returning home, it was not easy.Visited Yu Wei's parents and met a lot of Yu Wei's relatives.He also took Yu Wei to meet his parents.

In fact, this is the most tiring.

more tiring than work.

Yu Wei and her family are very rich, and she has an older brother who runs the largest luxury chain store in Asia.There are many relatives in the family, and they all looked at Chen Ping with scrutiny.Fortunately, although Chen Ping's current income cannot be said to be very high, he is already very famous.

After finally dealing with these relatives and friends, I also accepted interviews from some Chinese media.With Chen Ping's current status, there are many media who want to interview Chen Ping.Not only paper media, but also many TV stations want to interview Chen Ping and do some programs.

Although Chen Ping was impatient, he also chose some programs to participate in.

Then I participated in several commercial shootings.This was something Xu Hongtao settled down for Chen Ping very early on.Now Chen Ping's reputation has increased greatly, and his influence is so great that he can even be compared with Liu Xiang in the sports world.

All kinds of advertisements are coming.

Xu Hongtao has turned down a lot, but Chen Ping still participated in several this summer.

After completing these, the time has passed the middle of June.

Only two people have time to find a place for vacation.

Sunny beaches of Spain.

As Chen Ping grows up, this is actually the first time he has the opportunity to spend time on vacation.There used to be time but no money.In the past two years, I have money in my hands, but I don't have much time.This summer is the first time I have money, and I still have some time to go on vacation.It's a pity that too much time was wasted before, and I can't stay here for long.

After only a week or so of vacation, Chen Ping received a call from England.

Because the player transfer has already started, *** needs Chen Ping to go back and preside over the overall situation. On June 2005, 6, it was not time to return to the team.But this summer is too special, there are too many things for West Ham, and there are too many things for Chen Ping to deal with.

So Chen Ping could only end his vacation early and return to West Ham.

"Paul, what's going on?"

"I'm not very clear about the specifics."

After Chen Ping returned to West Ham, he immediately met with West Ham sports director Paul Pitt.

The news that the owner of West Ham is going to sell the insurance company is flying all over the sky, and the buyer that the media talks about the most is the i Group.It belongs to a very mysterious company. No one can say how many bosses there are in it.

However, there are rumors that i Group is a company controlled by several oligarchs in Russia.Including Abramovich, the boss who controls CSKA Moscow and Chelsea, Iliyev, the boss of Lokomotiv Plovdiv, the Russian financial oligarch, the former president of United Bank, and Abramovich's elder brother Berezov in his early years ski.

The biggest move of the i Group in the past two years is to win the Brazil Corinthians Championship.

Now it is rumored that i Group is going to enter European football.Of course, it is more said that Berezovsky and Abramovich fell out, so Berezovsky is going to compete with Abramovich.

The way is to buy a Premier League club and compete with Chelsea.

Now i Group has taken a fancy to West Ham United.In fact, there were already such rumors last season, but there was no result.But now the rumors are flying around.In particular, Chen Ping led West Ham to win the Premier League championship, which greatly increased the influence of West Ham and strengthened the relationship between i Group and West Ham.

Chen Ping came back in such a hurry because the i Group's transfer of Carlos Tevez was progressing too quickly.

Historically, Tevez and Mascherano's transfer to West Ham was the last moment of the 2006 summer transfer.But I don't know what's different. The i Group is interested in West Ham so quickly.The result is that Tevez's transfer operation went very smoothly.According to Paul Pitt's call to Chen Ping, Tevez's transfer has basically ended, only the last few steps.

"However, Chen. Tevez's matter is basically settled, and the official announcement is estimated to be in the past few days. I know that it is really inappropriate not to let you participate in this matter. But I have nothing to do, because this time I did not participate in the negotiation, the boss personally negotiated."

Although Chen Ping didn't fly into a rage, he was actually very angry.

It's just because I was mentally prepared, so I didn't fully express it.The transfer is the power of the head coach, whoever is brought in and sold is within Chen Ping's power.Chen Ping is not satisfied with Tevez himself, but dissatisfied with West Ham's operation.

Similarly, Chen Ping was also very dissatisfied with Huo Braqin.

Chen Ping didn't know what was the deal behind it, but those people were all for capital and business.They don't understand the rules of football. Chen Ping can understand it, but you, a football agent, don't understand the rules.Player transfers, especially in English football, you don't talk to the manager first.You are not afraid of the head coach putting on small shoes for the players, especially a head coach like Chen Ping who has such a status in West Ham.

Seeing that Chen Ping did not speak, Paul Pitt said immediately: "Chen, although I did not participate in the specific negotiations, it is estimated that some rumors outside are true. The boss may really want to sell West Ham. You also know Tevez , and Javier Mascherano is all affiliated to the i Group. The signal is already obvious. In fact, from a political point of view, it is not a bad thing for West Ham if the i Group takes over. There's a lot of money pouring into West Ham and we don't have to worry about players leaving like we did this summer."

"cut."

Seeing that Paul Pitt was looking forward to the i Group's entry, Chen Ping couldn't help curling his lips.

The uproar about i Group's entry into West Ham, although it was a lot of fun, ended up being nothing.How many times in history the media has sworn that the i Group has completed the acquisition of West Ham, but in the end it was just a rumor.Abramovich continues to flourish, and Berezovsky, who is in court with Abramovich, will continue to decline.

Berezovsky, the former Russian financial oligarch, his era is long over.The ultimate buyer of West Ham became a rich man in Iceland, who almost went bankrupt during the subprime mortgage crisis in 08.

Even if history has changed because of Chen Ping, Chen Ping still scoffs at the i Group's entry into West Ham, which is impossible.

"List......"

"It's okay. They want to take over West Ham. I don't care about the layout in advance. As long as they don't interfere with my transfer in the summer or the specific affairs of the team, then everything else is easy to talk about."

"I can guarantee this."

Paul Pitt immediately patted his chest for assurance.

Said: "Except for Tevez, everything in the transfer market will be at your disposal."

"How are the contract renewal negotiations going?"

"Overall, it's going well. You can see that this is the general result of the current negotiations. Now wait for your final confirmation, and **** will complete the contract renewal with them. However, after this contract renewal negotiation, the team's salary has increased. A big cut, almost doubled. The team is pinning all their hopes on the Champions League this season. If our income does not increase this season, then *** may face financial crisis."

Speaking of contract renewal, Paul Pitt took a deep breath.

too difficult.

The follow-up influence brought by a Premier League champion has made West Ham executives in a hurry.In particular, the champions of West Ham are basically young players. After winning the Premier League championship, the value of these players has risen with the tide.

If you want to keep them, you can only increase your chips, that is to say, increase your salary.

not easy.

Fortunately, Chen Ping has already done the work in advance, and before Chen Ping went on vacation, he and Paul Pitt worked out the salary system for this season. The newly formulated salary system, the highest level is 4 to 5 pounds, which is for West Ham Prepared by the top players.

往下就是3万英镑到4万英镑，是西汉姆的绝对主力球员。继续就是2万英镑到3万英镑期间，给一般的主力球员设置的。之后就是1.5万英镑到2万英镑，这是给那些常规替补准备的薪水。

At the bottom, that is, below 1.5 pounds, there are either some veterans or some young players.

From mid-May to now, Chen Ping has been on vacation for a month and a half.But Paul Pitt didn't rest at all, and met with those agents every day to discuss the player's contract renewal.

Many of them have already been discussed.

Especially the most core players, the contracts of Carrick, Lambert and Ribery have been completed, and the final signature is left.

The salaries of Carrick and Lambert are the highest level in West Ham, and their weekly salary has reached 5 pounds.And Ribery's salary has also been greatly increased, but he has not been able to be the same as Lambert and Carrick, only reaching 4.3 pounds.

Of course, in terms of performance, Ribery is no worse than Carrick.But Carrick's status is there, he must get the highest salary in West Ham.

Apart from the three of them, Van der Sar has a higher salary.

Van der Sar's agent proposed a weekly salary of 3.7 pounds and a three-year contract, and Chen Ping agreed in principle.However, during the negotiations, Paul Pitt fought for a lot of things, and finally reduced Van der Sar's salary to 2 pounds, and the contract period became 1+[-].

The salary of most of the main players is around 3 pounds.Including Mascherano and Benayoun, their salaries are just over 3 pounds.As for Pepe, Chimbonda and Martin Anthony, their salaries are around 2.5 pounds.

Then there are regular substitutes such as Leo Kirk and Baines, whose salary is only about 2 pounds.On the contrary, although Glen Johnson is not the absolute main force, because he is a local player and a West Ham youth training player, he is very famous, so his salary exceeds 2.5 pounds.

Compared with the previous pile of 4 pounds or 10 pounds, the salary has been greatly increased.But only compared to the original West Ham, if compared with the Premier League teams, this salary is still very weak.In the strong teams of the Premier League, the salaries of the main players generally exceed [-] pounds.The salary of the core players has reached [-] to [-] pounds, and even the salary of the core players of the upstart Chelsea has exceeded [-] pounds.

In order to keep these players and allow them to renew their contracts smoothly, West Ham privately gave their agents a lot of commissions.Like Xu Hongtao, in order to renew the contracts of core players such as Lambert and Ribery, West Ham paid more than 60 pounds in commission alone.The money is just West Ham's thanks to Xu Hongtao for cooperating with the team to keep these core players.On the whole, West Ham's salary expenditure this season has greatly increased.

Looking at these contract extensions, Chen Ping was still very happy, because most of the players still stayed.

"Chen, it's time for the team to enter the transfer state."

"Ah."

Now that you are back, it's time to enter the transfer time.

"This is what I prepared for the summer transfer, you help me take a look."
