Green Life

Volume 4 Chapter 41

As night fell, in a luxury hotel in Johannesburg, a business Rolls Royce drove directly to the underground parking lot.

After a while, the back door of the commercial vehicle opened, and Florentino stepped out, followed by Valdano.

"The sixteenth floor," Valdano rushed to the front and pressed the elevator, and whispered again, Florentino nodded.

The elevator went up smoothly and quickly, and soon the indicator light pointed to Sixteen. There were precious carpets, several adjacent luxury suites, and everything inside, no less than those top private clubs.

"Mr. Perez, it's been a hard journey, this way please." Jonathan had already received the news and waited at the elevator entrance.

The huge suite was very clean, there were only the three of them, and the coffee and refreshments for entertaining guests had already been prepared.

"Please sit down, Mr. Perez." Jonathan reached out his hand to gesture to the sofa where the guest was sitting, and he made it to the other side.

"Mr. Jonathan, you have been very proud recently," Lafayette said with a smile as soon as he sat down, "I think you are reluctant to leave South Africa."

"Haha", Jonathan said with a red face, "Mr. Perez is joking, I am just a handyman, running around, earning hard money, and I can't compare to you"

"It's different now." Lafayette lit a cigar with a smile on his face. "All clubs cannot do without your communication and connection. Real Madrid very much hopes to establish a closer relationship with you."

"This is my hope too," Jonathan handed over two cups of poured coffee, and continued, "I know why you came, but to be honest, I might disappoint you."

"No, Jonathan," Florentino said confidently, "you know that in my dictionary, everything has its value. We respect each other, take what we need, and achieve a win-win situation. Me, you, and Mark, I think this is the perfect outcome, doesn't it?"

"It's not about money anymore," Jonathan thought for a while, and said seriously, "To be honest, I respect you very much, and I hope to establish a deeper business relationship with Real Madrid, but Mark's situation is worse than all the players under me. To be complicated, I have to be careful"

Valdano interjected, and he said confidently: "Jonathan, we know that both Barcelona and Paris can afford the transfer fee alone, or you have their guarantee, but to say that the club with the best operation now, Ten years ago it could have been Manchester United, but now it's definitely Real Madrid"

"After Mark comes here, the huge market value that can be derived is not what those transfer fees can replace at all, and this will establish his status as an absolute superstar and become one of the most appealing superstars in the market. Do you want to go further?"

Jonathan kept nodding, I don't know why, he said in his heart, but if any other player would not be so complicated, only Mark Qin, he represents too many things.

The developer behind Liverpool, the Asian market, global sponsors, Liverpool fans, and even England fans, his step will have a huge social impact.

And the most important thing is that England has reached the top 8, and scoring 4 is the best result in 20 years. Mark Qin has now scored 3 goals and 5 assists. In the next two weeks, his status may change drastically every day.

"Valdano, I understand what you said. After all, I have been in this industry for so many years." Jonathan was going to have a real chat, "I can only say that after the World Cup, I will try my best to persuade Mark to choose Real Madrid. This is what I can do. All that's been done, right now we can't really talk about anything that can be implemented."

"I heard that Mark has an agreement with the former owner of Liverpool?" Florentino was not moved at all, and continued with his own topic. Since he came, he would definitely not go back like this.

Jonathan nodded, "Only a few people know the specifics. For example, the chairman of the Fan Club, Dalglish, will definitely know when they sign the transfer agreement. I don't know the specific content, and I haven't asked Mark. We have always So, what he wants to tell me I don't need to ask,

If I don’t want to tell, I won’t ask.”

"Jonathan," Florentino breathed out, "I'm a very honest person. As long as Mark's work can be done, the door of Real Madrid will be completely open for you in the future."

It would be false to say that Jonathan was not excited, but the problem is that his guarantee is useless now. Jonathan pursed his lips and was about to speak when Florentino raised his hand and continued: "Jonathan, I know you are too It’s very difficult, and you can’t completely control many things, but I want to hear your opinions and suggestions, is it possible this summer, and what we need to do”

Jonathan leaned back on the sofa and exhaled. It involved a business worth hundreds of millions or even a potential billion, and he also felt thirsty.

Picking up the coffee and taking a sip, he organized his words and said: "Based on what I know about Mark, this summer is the only chance if he wants to transfer. He has already achieved everything in Liverpool. To be honest, he himself has no chance. I won’t pay too much attention to the increase in market value that Real Madrid can bring to him, that’s the icing on the cake.”

Just as Valdano was about to speak, Florentino stopped him with a wave of his hand, and then signaled Jonathan to continue.

"The reason why I say that is because of the conflict with his former Liverpool boss, which was involved in the original acquisition, and made David Moores suspicious. In order for Liverpool to successfully restructure, Mark must have made some kind of compromise."

Florentino nodded and said, "We all guess it will be related to money."

"There must be," Jonathan said firmly, "It may not be entirely about money, but there are other things. To be honest, the membership system is very ideal. I don't recommend Mark to do it in Liverpool, but I don't want him to do it." In order to ensure the absolute control of the fan club, most of the huge funds must come from the fan club, and only a small part of the strategic funds can be used.”

"If this incident caused the opportunity for Mark to leave, based on my understanding of him, what we need to do is how to make him feel that the choice of going to Real Madrid is good for Liverpool."

"It is true that Liverpool will receive a huge transfer fee to repay the fans' loan, but this is not only Real Madrid can give, and to be arrogant, Liverpool's lineup, he can lead to the championship, and the giants will not be His inevitable choice," Jonathan said confidently.

"Good for Liverpool?" Florentino rubbed his chin and said to himself.

"Yes, I have thought about this matter for a long time." Jonathan put his arms on the back of the sofa and continued: "First of all, those strategic investments in Liverpool will never want Mark to leave Liverpool. It has to be done beforehand.”

"You mean, some exchange of benefits?", Valdano asked.

"Yes, although this is difficult, I believe that it is not too difficult to achieve with Real Madrid's resources around the world."

"Well, it makes sense, you go on," Lafayette said.

"There is also the Liverpool fans club. It is a very difficult time for them now. They will not have funds for signings in the next few years, and they have to repay the loan. Mark and his father-in-law are also members of the fans club and have been worrying about it. Regarding the business development of Liverpool, if Real Madrid can convince Mark, this is a very useful bargaining chip.”

"Haha, it's hard for you to think of it." Florentino laughed. "Real Madrid learned this from Manchester United. If Liverpool need it, I don't mind returning it to them. That's right, go ahead."

"Then there are his sponsors," Jonathan said, "Adidas will definitely support his transfer to Real Madrid, but some that conflict with your business map may hinder you. There are also many sponsors from Huaguo. Sponsors, they are sponsoring Liverpool, if he leaves, let these sponsors follow suit, I'm afraid it will make Mark very unhappy, after all Liverpool need money now"

Florentino frowned a little. Real Madrid has influence and is not the president of the United Nations. How can they control so much? , "I won't say much about Real Madrid's business development capabilities. What I can guarantee is that what Mark lost due to leaving Liverpool can be doubled in Real Madrid. As for Liverpool's sponsorship, I can't help it."

Jonathan himself felt that it was a bit too much. Is Real Madrid buying players or ancestors? However, he really wanted to facilitate this transfer, and he couldn't do it head-on, so he could only think of these ways to detour.

He nodded and told the truth, "Barcelona, ​​Paris, Manchester City have all given me assurances, and even Ferguson of Manchester United is negotiating with the board of directors because of this. As long as Mark can be bought, he will postpone his retirement."

"Therefore, you have many competitors. If Mark has to leave, his first choice must be the one that is most beneficial to Liverpool. This is his principle of life."

"Also, don't forget that it's the World Cup and England has reached the top 8. Since Mark's crazy performance in the Champions League that year, I won't be surprised by any miracle he has accomplished."

"If, I mean if, if England wins the championship... the matter we are talking about now will make the whole world crazy..." Jonathan even felt a burst of heat.

"Hiss..." Valdano gasped.

Florentino shook his head with a wry smile, "Why did I come to you now, you understand the reason, I'm also worried about this."

"Phew", Jonathan was frightened and stimulated by the scene he performed. He took a deep breath and said, "The director of Carlsberg, Dalglish, Parry and even Isabella, they are the ones who are involved in this case." The key people in the transfer can also know a lot of inside information, so..."

Florentino patted the armrest of the sofa and sighed: "I just said that this time I won't come in vain. What you said is too valuable. It seems that we still have a lot of work to do, but it doesn't matter. We still have to do it now." It's less than July and we have more than two months to go"

Valdano nodded, "The transfer fee and portrait rights are divided..."

"Hehe", Jonathan waved his hand, "Believe me, if Mark nods, what you said will not be a problem. I believe in Mr. Perez and Mark's ability. We will find a suitable point."

Florentino also smiled and said, "That's right, the transfer fee and share are really minor issues now, and I really didn't come this time in vain."

After finishing speaking, he stood up, "There are still many things to do, so I won't stay longer, but Jonathan, you have to believe me, I will honor what I said, Mark will definitely join Real Madrid, and Real Madrid will open the door for you! "

"Mr. Perez, I look forward to that day," Jonathan also stood up and held out his hand.

As the night fell, the Rolls-Royce commercial vehicle quietly drove out of the underground garage without disturbing anyone. Jonathan stood in front of the window, staring deeply at the back of the vehicle, his hand holding the cup trembling slightly.

Is that exciting? , is that expected? He couldn't tell what it was, he just felt a surge of hot blood flowing into his aged veins, and even made him smell the breath of youth.

He believed in Florentino, and he also knew Mark Qin. So far, no one has been able to force him to do what Mark Qin does not want to do.

Whether it will be successful or not, he has no idea in his heart, but he just can't restrain himself, his heart is full of grass...
