Chapter 257: The chairman is a lobbyist

In the afternoon training, a lot of fans came around the base and heard the news. Many of them booed Gao Xiaodong's fiercest in the Rexos and Porto games, but now, as Gao Xiaodong returns on loan, they are immediately taken care of by Gao Xiaodong. Turning hatred to love, everyone came to watch Gao Xiaodong training, asked for autographs and photo, and strongly asked Gao Xiaodong to stay.

Gao Xiaodong has only participated in the training of the Porto youth team, that is, he feels fast, fast-paced, and strong against confrontation. Now that he participates in the training of the adult team, Gao Xiaodong understands why a giant like Porto is so much stronger than an ordinary team. When training here, passing, receiving, dribbling and pressing are faster than ordinary teams, and the intensity is greater. If the state of the giants is normal, the probability of ordinary teams wanting to win is really too small. A tie with an iron bucket is the best result. This also makes Gao Xiaodong feel even more fortunate to grab food from Porto last season. It is estimated that it is comparable to the double-color ball lottery.

After training in the afternoon, Gao Xiaodong, who was more tired as a dog, just returned to his new home, and the old club chairman Da Costa came.

Although he was fined and punished for two years of not being in contact with football-related matters, Da Costa is still in good spirits, looking like nothing happened.

"Chairman, why are you here, sit inside."

Gao Xiaodong let Da Costa into the living room, pouring tea, and sitting down to chat.

Da Costa looked at the living room and said, "Xiaodong, are you satisfied with this place?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "Fortunately, the environment is very good."

Da Costa said: "There is still a lack of fitness equipment at home. I heard that you are easy to get fat. I will ask someone to send you another set of fitness equipment tomorrow."

Gao Xiaodong said: "It's pretty good now, don't be so troublesome."

Da Costa smiled and said: "Are you afraid that the transfer will leave and the fitness equipment is wasted."

Gao Xiaodong grinned and said, "Isn't it your final decision if I can't leave? If you put me a price of 50 million, I can't transfer it."

Da Costa sighed and said, "Xiaodong, do you know why I bid you 30 million euros?"

Gao Xiaodong said with a grin: "You are black, no one in Europe knows that you are a black shop."

Da Costa said: "I offer you 30 million, because we are poor and there is no way."

Gao Xiaodong grinned and said: "Chairman, you actually came to me crying poorly. Didn't you go to the wrong place? You should go to the board of directors and cry."

Da Costa said: "No, I'm not crying poor, Porto, the Portuguese super giants, two Champions League winners, and the Portuguese Super League two consecutive championships. It seems that the scenery is boundless, but in fact the life is tight..."

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Come on, you stop the meeting, I didn't let you raise your salary."

Da Costa shook his head and said: "As a whole Porto, your kid dared to talk to me like this. I told you this, not crying poor, and it has nothing to do with salary increases. I want to tell you why I want you to stay. , Why do you want to go, you need such a high transfer fee. I dare say that Porto’s record in the last ten years is not worse than the top five leagues, but the Portuguese market is too small. No matter how good our record is, we can’t make much money. It can only be maintained by sellers."

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Even a layman knows that you can make several times the price difference when you sell a star in Porto. Just like I sold it for 20 million, you are making a net profit. How much money did you invest in me? ."

Da Costa said: "In terms of buying and selling players, we make a lot of money, but we make less money in other areas. The TV broadcast of the Portuguese Super League only sold 50 million euros, which is really shabby compared to other leagues: England, 12. Italy, 900 million; France, 700 million; Spain, 500 million; Germany, 400 million. Even the Netherlands has 100 million; Greece is 4 million more than Portugal, while the broadcast fee for a team in Arsenal is 60 million The appearance fee of each team in the Champions League is the same, but the broadcast income depends on the size of the country’s market. Last season, we broke into the top 16 and scored 5.4 million; and Real Madrid also broke into the top 16. , But got 18 million. Nike only pays us 3 million for jersey sponsorship every year, and the ticket revenue is only 10 million. The sponsorship and front and back advertisements are better, reaching 14 million; but Manchester United’s ticket revenue alone is 120 million. . For example, the income is probably this, but we only need to pay 40 million yuan every season,..."

After speaking like a few Jiazhen, Da Costa said: "Xiaodong, you now understand why I want to give you a 30 million euro transfer fee. Selling is the lifeblood of our survival. We have a talented player. , We must make enough money, otherwise, we will encounter a financial crisis."

Gao Xiaodong sighed and said: "Well, Chairman Costa, I understand your difficulty, although I basically don't understand it, but although I just arrived at the club to report, I can see that my teammates are not cold to me. The coach also has a cold face, and the fans resent me for helping Rexos win the Porto championship. You said how I stayed in Porto, Chairman, you have to understand my difficulties."

Da Costa chuckled and said: "You can't stay? I don't believe it. For the first report today, I heard that I gave the whole team a predicament. Who dares to embarrass you? As for Ferreira, he treats everyone. A cold face, as long as you have the ability, he will definitely use you. Although we are full of talents in Porto, I believe that the best scorer and best newcomer of last season will never fail to be the main force. I will never do this. It may go wrong."

Gao Xiaodong wailed and said: "Chairman, don't be so confident in your own eyesight, okay, before I went to Rexos, our three-year agreement, you have lost now."

Da Costa smiled awkwardly, and said, "That's a weird boy who ran into you."

Gao Xiaodong said sternly: "Chairman, I will tell you seriously now. If someone pays 30 million euros in the five major leagues, I will leave. If no one pays this price, I will stay. So whether I leave or Staying, I can be regarded as worthy of the kindness of Porto."

Da Costa was very happy and said: "Okay, when do we start the renewal negotiations?"

Gao Xiaodong smiled leisurely: "Let's wait until the transfer window closes. It's still too early."

Da Costa smiled and scolded: "You little fox, you are really cunning."

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Let's go to each other."

Da Costa stood up and said: "Xiaodong, I am very optimistic about you. I hope you can become the greatest player that Porto has come out of. Um, a player as great as Eusebio, understand? I'm leaving, no need to send me. ."

"Stay and have a meal."

"You're welcome."

Da Costa left, Gao Xiaodong stood at the door and muttered to himself: "Eusebio? I must be greater than him, I am a systematic man.".
