I Just Can Score

Office of the Chairman.

Michael Ashley was lying on a chair, staring motionlessly at the magazine in his hand. The half-lying posture looked very leisurely, but the expression on his face was like a defeated rooster. He had no energy at all and was sluggish. It seems like it's coming to an end.

The bonus negotiation just now...

He lost!

Ashley considers himself a successful sports businessman. His father only owned a few chain sports goods stores, but he expanded his business to acquire sports clubs and integrated sports companies, which made his worth soar to the point where he is on the rich list.

He is successful.

Ashley believes that what he relies on is his vision, but he also has good abilities in all aspects, such as excellent negotiation skills. He always spends less money and completes more valuable acquisitions.

The negotiations with representatives from Real Madrid and Manchester City in the past two days were still vivid in his mind. He had always been proud of it, but facing the 'strong' Zhen Shaolong, he finally became the loser.

"It's still because I don't have any chips..."

After Zhen Shaolong left, Ashley thought about it carefully and discovered the main reason for the failure - chips.

Zhen Shaolong is a player of Newcastle United, and he is the chairman of Newcastle United. Their identities may seem a bit unequal, but in fact, Zhen Shaolong is the stronger one because his performance is enough to influence the team's performance.

No club has such strong players, and ‘no player is indispensable’ is not an empty statement.

Apart from Zhen Shaolong, the best players in football are Ronaldo, Messi, Kaka and others, but they are only top stars. Their teams can still have temporary substitutes, and their performance will not differ too much. .

Zhen Shaolong is different.

Zhen Shaolong is indispensable to Newcastle United. It is impossible for Newcastle United to find a replacement. His prestige among the club, fans and media is also unshakable.

Therefore, Zhen Shaolong is qualified to talk to him on an equal footing.

Zhen Shaolong also holds other bargaining chips, the most important of which is that his worth is too high, transfer is a very big deal, and the club cannot afford the losses caused by 'no transfer'.

"That's more than 200 million euros!" Ashley thought about the large amount of money.

Suddenly I felt that losing was nothing.

This is a compromise with money!

In the world of a successful businessman, compromising with money is normal. It can even be said to be a principle and creed of life.

The most depressing thing for Ashley is Zhen Shaolong's last bargaining chip--

Laura.

Laura likes Zhen Shaolong.

Ashley felt that since he was not blind, there was no way he could make a mistake in his judgment. Even if Zhen Shaolong was dating Irene, as long as he expressed his love for Laura, Laura would definitely agree.

"That bastard must be a playboy! Unlike me, Michael Ashley, I will never betray sacred love!"

"He is not a good son-in-law!"

"The most important thing is...this guy actually blackmailed me..."

When Ashley thought about Laura and Zhen Shaolong's relationship, he suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, and even began to be frightened, "As soon as possible, we must finalize the transfer as soon as possible, we can't delay it any longer!"

"In case he really doesn't leave, Laura often comes to the club..."

"Too dangerous……"

He immediately called Charnley and said, "It seems that our big deal will be accelerated. We will identify the players we need as soon as possible and try to complete it before the end of the season!"

————

Zhen Shaolong returned to the team for training and brought good news, "Mr. Ashley has agreed to pay bonuses!"

"And soon... either today or tomorrow, anyway, we will get the money right away!"

"Hula..."

The teammates applauded collectively and clapped to each other in celebration. They were also very grateful to Zhen Shaolong--

"Zhen is so awesome! She was able to get the bonus from Mr. Ashley!"

"It's normal for the club to pay bonuses. We reached the semi-finals of the Champions League."

"This is a training ground. There's no need to be polite to that fat man. I usually call him 'stingy fat man'."

"The one who gives out bonuses is the boss, we should respect him more."

"Yes, be respectful!"

"Zhen, how much is the bonus?" Viduka asked a key question, which many teammates are also concerned about.

The salary level of most Newcastle United players is not high. Owen, who has the second highest salary, only earns more than 100,000 pounds a week. Milner's salary is slightly less than Owen, with a weekly salary of less than 100,000 pounds, and he is already the team's third highest-paid player. Three.

The salaries of other teammates are very pitiful.

For example, Viduka.

Viduka's annual salary is only 850,000 pounds, and his average weekly salary is only about 15,000 pounds. His salary is in the middle of the team, which is better than most of his teammates.

Those players with relatively low salaries will naturally be concerned about the amount of bonuses. After all, bonuses are awarded for Champions League results. The total bonus amount must start at one million pounds.

"Two and a half million pounds."

Zhen Shaolong explained the specific figures, which immediately made his teammates happy and quite surprised.

Two and a half million?

When did that damn fat chairman become generous?

After determining the overall bonus amount, the focus of discussion among teammates was the distribution of bonuses. Everyone felt that there should be a reasonable distribution method, but if bonuses were paid based on their contribution to the game, most substitute players would not get any money at all.

These are all questions.

It was a good thing that the club decided to pay out bonuses, but it also made the team a little uninterested in training. At noon, Keegan went to Charnley to explain the situation and urged him to pay out the bonuses as soon as possible.

In fact, Charnley still had to delay, because the quick payment of bonuses would make Ashley very unhappy, but when he heard that it would affect the team's training, he decided to take action immediately.

As the club's financial manager, Charnley is still very capable. He quickly came up with a bonus distribution method and received support from other managers and Keegan.

The £2.5 million bonus was divided into two parts by Charnley, one was £1 million and the other was £1.5 million.

The £1 million portion is shared equally by everyone, and players in the first team are eligible to receive this bonus.

The 1.5 million pounds part is determined based on the Champions League playing time. Players who play all the games will get the most. Players who do not play will not receive bonuses.

In this way, the worst player can get more than 40,000 pounds.

Coloccini, who participated in all games and played most of the games, will receive the highest bonus of 120,000 pounds. Adding the basic bonus of more than 40,000 pounds, his bonus amount will reach 170,000 pounds.

Zhen Shaolong's playing time is less, but he can still get nearly 160,000 pounds.

Other players follow suit.

This distribution plan satisfied most of the players. The only problem was Zhen Shaolong. He felt that distribution based on winning contribution was more reasonable because he could get more...

"All right!"

"So be it!"

Zhen Shaolong thought of his great sentiments and felt that he should not worry about this bonus.

It would be nice to have bonuses!

This money is definitely extra income. It is enough to buy Huzi a house. It is the most comfortable result if he does not spend any money in his own bank.

Subsequently.

Zhen Shaolong remembered the mission.

After the bonuses were distributed, the system tasks also changed, and there was an additional explanation for winning the bonus, "You have won 2.5 million pounds. In the next game, you will enjoy the following bonus effects--

1. The triggering distance of the "Must Kill" skill has been extended by 2.5 meters.

2. The correction range of "Calibration" is expanded to 1.25 meters.

3. The duration of "Skill" is increased by 2.5 seconds. "

This bonus is really good!

The range of "Must Kill" is in the small penalty area. The horizontal line of the small penalty area is 5.5 meters away from the goal. If it is expanded by 2.5 meters, it is equal to eight meters. The distance between the line of the large penalty area and the goal is 16.5 meters. Eight meters is almost half of the goal. .

"Calibration" goes without saying.

It’s so BUG!

The correction distance increased by "Calibration" increases exponentially. The correction range is expanded to 1.25 meters, which is equivalent to more than doubling the area. Overall, it is a circle with a diameter of 4.5 meters.

If you are facing away from the goal, or shooting with a position other than your feet, "Calibration" can also enhance the effect twice, which is equivalent to a circle with a diameter of nine meters.

What ball can't be scored?

"Skills" is also very useful. It adds 2.5 seconds to the time. I guess it can stick the ball and rush directly into the goal?

Zhen Shaolong thought carefully about whether he would be beaten by the opponent in anger when he rushed into the goal with the ball...

"Try not to do that... keep a low profile! You have to be low-key!"

at last.

Zhen Shaolong noticed the mission reward - a little appearance. He was not surprised by the reward for appearance, because many tasks were rewarded for appearance.

He opened the character page to view the attributes--

"Unconsciously, my appearance has reached 99! If I add a little more, wouldn't it be 100?"

Zhen Shaolong suddenly remembered the Toulon Cup two years ago. At that time, due to the improvement of the mission, the appearance attribute accumulation exceeded 110 points.

This caused a violent response, and a large number of French female fans quickly became his supporters. In the final against the French team, a group of French fans actually supported him.

That... was a great experience!

Now that my appearance is over 100, will it also be effective?

When she plays against Arsenal, a large number of female Arsenal fans come to support her...

Ahem!

"Low-key! Low-key!"

"This is the trouble with good looks. Wherever I go, there are many supporters... Actually, I don't want to be like this, but who can refuse the support of fans?"

Zhen Shaolong suddenly felt that a special female fans association should be established, and the 'best supporter of the month (selected based on appearance)' would be selected every month. The 'best supporter of the month' would receive benefits - being alone with their idol (himself) for once. opportunity to meet.

"This is a good idea. You should really give back to the fans who support you, but...will it cause public outrage?"

Zhen Shaolong fell into philosophical thinking between giving back to fans and personal crisis.
