Chapter 267 Meeting with Mendes (Part 2)

As Zhang Yang's father Zhang Guodong said, Manchester City Club is willing to pay Zhang Yang a transfer fee of 100 million pounds. This is an attitude. Although the final transfer fee may not be needed so much, this attitude is very telling.

This is a courage and attitude that is enough to move almost every star, including Zhang Yang!

"What do you think?" Mendes did not make a statement at the first time after hearing Zhang Yang's narrative, but asked.

"My thought?" Zhang Yang said, but it was more like talking to himself. He took out a mint candy from the candy box, put it in his mouth, felt the coolness of the mint, and said, "I am moved! I am really moved. I am very good in Milan and just won the league championship. This is a very powerful team. In Milan, I may be able to win all the glory a football player can win in the club. But, I thought about it carefully, is this really the environment I want most? Here, I am one of the many super players, and the core of the team is not me. Although my tactical importance is also crucial in the game, the head coach also attaches great importance to me,

However, I know that within the club, Kaka is the real core, the most important thing, the team's flag. I am not jealous of Kaka. Kaka and I are friends. I am really happy to play football with him. But what makes me unhappy is that the club's attitude towards us is the most representative of the club's image, but I am not. So, whether it is salary or status in the team, I am far from comparable to Kaka. They have never even considered me at all. All of this is just a factor, Berlusconi doesn't like me. In his eyes, a grassroots player like me is not worthy of the aristocratic image of Milan."

Zhang Yang said lightly that this was the first time he had expressed his heart to others. Looking at Mendes' surprised eyes looking at him, Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Jorge, you don't need to be so surprised. I am not a fool. I can certainly feel the club's attitude towards me and these reasons clearly. I am very unhappy. This dissatisfaction is not because Kaka is valued. Kaka is my friend. He has obtained all this with his own strength. The reason for me is that I feel unfair. No matter how much I contribute to the team, I will not give me a fair chance in the eyes of those big players."

Zhang Yang seemed to vent his suppressed emotions, "I am not a World Footballer, nor a European Footballer. However, I am not afraid of competing with any gentlemen. I don't think I am worse than anyone else. My future will be very brilliant. The rainbow that belongs to me in the sky will definitely be the most beautiful."

"Jorge, I am a selfish person. I hope I can gather all my favors. I hope my comrades can gather around me. We fight together, charge together, ride war horses, raise long spears, and blow the enemy from the way they are. Let's expand our territory together!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Yang paused for a moment and asked Mendes, "Jorge, do you think I'm very alone? I'm too selfish in the collective sport of football?"

Mendes shook his head, "I only know that I have such dreams. People are animals that like to show off. Even the most cowardly people want to be the center, become the focus of attention, and lead their friends to work for a better future. This is not contrary to the spirit of collective projects, because I know that you are not a selfish person on the football field. To put it bluntly, I think what you need is respect, and you enjoy the feeling of being respected." Speaking of this, Mendes also looked at Zhang Yang seriously and said, "I think what Manchester City can make you moved, maybe it is because you have received the feeling of respect from them, right?"

"The feeling of being respected?" Zhang Yang muttered, and he nodded himself, "You are right. Haha. This reminds me of an old saying from China."

"What old saying?"

"It's better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail." Zhang Yang said, and then he explained it in French. In addition to his native Chinese, he now speaks French, Italian and English. However, in comparison, Zhang Yang has the best French, after all, he played football and lived in France for two years.

"It's better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail." Mendes read it and savored it carefully, then nodded, "Although my understanding of this sentence may not be very thorough, I think I understand what this sentence means."

"Are you considering transferring to Manchester City?" Mendes asked.

"Well." Zhang Yang nodded, "I did think so. To be precise, even the last step away from making up my mind. I know that every transfer is a gamble for the player. Sometimes, they bet right, and sometimes they bet wrong. If they bet right, his career will be sublimated. If they choose the wrong one, his career will be hit hard, and he will even be in a slump. Therefore, when transferring, the right and wrong choices are important, but whoever can bet knows the bet when he bets, he will know the bet.

What is the result? So, I know, this is a gambling, especially joining a team that has just begun to rebuild. The current situation of this team, and even nothing else. I know, the current situation of Manchester City is much worse than that of Atletico Madrid, which invited me last year. However, I still want to say, I think I chose to go to Manchester City, and I believe it should be the right decision, where I can fly freely, and the stage there is the most suitable for me. Sometimes, the process from scratch is the best."

"However, many people died in battle in this process from scratch, and did not enjoy the glory and joy of success." Mendes said without hesitation.

"Haha." Zhang Yang laughed and shrugged at Mendes, "Jorge, those are the ones you are going to negotiate. Of course, I can't hang myself in a tree. I agree to go to Manchester City. However, if this club does not show the strength and ambition they promised in the future, or they have improved their strength, and I have worked hard, and my performance is very good, but to no avail, I will choose to leave. I have tried my best and deserve the trust of the club in me. However, if I can't see the future, I will leave without hesitation. However, if the team and I can show good momentum, I will contribute my loyalty to the team."

Mendes rubbed his temples in distress, "You have made up your mind, why do you ask me to do?" He was a little annoyed.

Zhang Yang was angry when he saw Mendes, he didn't mind.

He just said to Mendes, "Jorge, can I ask a few questions?"

"You ask." Mendes gulped Zhang Yang's top-quality Biluochun, as if he wanted to vent his resentment towards this kid.

"Do you believe in my strength?" Zhang Yang asked.

Mendes nodded, "You are indeed the most powerful boy I have ever met. The feeling you feel in front of the goal and your intuition about scoring are terrible."

"If I say I can score a lot of goals in the Premier League and Manchester City, although Manchester City's future strength is still unknown, I still maintain motivation and confidence in getting the Premier League Golden Boot. Do you believe it?" Zhang Yang asked.

Mendes pondered for a moment and nodded again, "I believe you are the kind of super player who does not even rely on the strength of the whole team. Although there are many giants in the Premier League and many super shooters, this does not mean that you cannot get the Golden Boot. As I said, I believe in your strength."

"The other thing is, Jorge, I know you are skeptical about Manchester City's future strength and performance." Zhang Yang said, "But you are an agent, you should be able to understand the importance of funds best. With a large transfer investment, you cannot deny that in the next few seasons, this team will be able to become a strong team in the Premier League, just like Chelsea back then, and I am very confident that with me, Manchester City's future strength will definitely be stronger than some people expected."

Mendes shook his head first, then smiled bitterly, nodding, "Although I want to say NO, I can only say YES, I cannot rule out this possibility. Yes, Manchester City now has Arab investment. If they buy a few stars on three lines after getting you this summer, in the new Premier League, they will be the most immeasurable force. In the next season of the Premier League, Manchester City will continue to recruit soldiers and complete the lineup, and they may indeed bring the greatest impact on the Premier League. The power of capital will be the greatest embodied here."

Hearing Mendes say this, Zhang Yang smiled happily. He spread his hands and shook his eyes at Mendes, "Look, Jorge, that's not the case. You can't really find a reason to convince me to give up this decision. Moreover, you also think that my future there may be broader and more successful."

"This kind of question, this kind of answer, and then explaining something is not convincing." Mendes said angrily, and then he asked Zhang Yang, "You have made a decision and have thought about how to force me to agree with you. Then what are you asking me for my advice?"

Zhang Yang laughed, "Jorge, you are denying your profession. I asked for your opinion. When I heard that you did not object, I expressed my support. I felt extremely at ease and I became more confident in my choice."

"I don't have support," Mendes said coldly.

"But you didn't have a clear objection," Zhang Yang said with a smile. Then he saw Mendes seemingly to say something. Zhang Yang put away his joking face and bowed slightly to Mendes very seriously. "Jorge, thank you, it is my blessing to be able to sign a contract with you. Over the years, you have helped me a lot. I know that you are a very professional agent, and I no longer regard you as my agent, you also know that I think you are my friend, a friend who can trust. Now, I make this decision, but I don't know whether my decision is correct.

I know that I still lack the last weight to strengthen my confidence, that is your nodding support, so I tried different ways to make you not say NO. This is because you have no objection, and in my heart, I feel much more stable. At this time, I am asking for the opinions of my friend Jorge Mendes, not the opinions of the agent Mendes. Because, I know that as an agent, you will do your best to stop me because you are not optimistic. But as a friend, I know that as long as you think I have the possibility of fruitfulness, you will support me. This is the difference between the agent Mendes and the friend Jorge."

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he looked at Mr. Jorge Mendes, the ‘super agent’ sitting opposite him.
