Midfielder
Chapter 63 Temptation
When Jose Vega handed Lin Yi his business card, Mourinho on the other side of the training ground had already seen this scene, but he did not come over, although he knew very well that the guy standing opposite Lin Yi was who.
When that guy was in Spain, he often met with Mourinho, who was an assistant coach in Barcelona. Although he was not very familiar with him, Mourinho had long known this person's name and was also aware of his energy.
Just like the uproar that guy caused in Spain, Mourinho could sensitively sense the other party's intentions, but he couldn't stop anything. After all, it was Lin Yi's own business, and he couldn't interfere too much.
If Mendes is now a piranha in the agent circle, then the man standing in front of Lin Yi can definitely be called a prehistoric giant. He is as influential as Mendes in the Portuguese football circle. Than, the energy is really not on the same level.
Even Lin Yi himself admits that when such a guy stands in front of him, his heart beats a little faster. After all, it is this guy who has the highest net worth of a Portuguese player. 46 million euros is definitely a sky-high price.
Without the transfer record set by Zidane later, perhaps Figo would have become the most expensive guy in the Real Madrid team, and all this was because of the original transfer decision of José Vega.
This guy with a smile on his face not only created enough news for Figo, but also made Figo a member of the "Galactico" at the Bernabeu. Although he is not the absolute first protagonist, no one can deny this transfer. Figo became an important figure in the limelight.
Talking to such a guy requires some mental endurance. The name José Vega has such influence in the Portuguese football circle. "Portugal's number one value maker" and "agent giant", this Not everyone can have this aura.
Such a guy is now standing in front of Lin Yi alive, and he is talking to Lin Yi with a very peaceful smile. This scene feels a bit weird when the sun sets. Lin Yi really doesn't know that he still has it. With such great dignity, I can help this gentleman to come in person.
"I've seen you play on the court, and it feels great. I'm here today just to see what the magical Porto kid they call is like. In addition, I also want to know if we have the ability to play on the court." Possibility of cooperation in football.”
The guy with a smile on his face didn't hide anything. Although this conversation was not in a coffee shop, he was still very direct.
Maybe this is the behavior of a big player in the brokerage circle, a bit domineering, but more of a feeling of being in control of everything. He didn't hide anything and directly stated the purpose of his coming to Porto. He came just for this black-haired boy.
"You are too polite. Looking at this business card, I should be the one who feels the pressure. People who play in Portugal, many people will say that they don't know me, but absolutely no one will say that they don't know you. Lin Yi raised the business card in his hand and said to the person in front of him.
There is nothing wrong with this. As long as there are Portuguese players who want to make a name for themselves through football, there are very few people who don’t want to get on the express train of José Vega, because as long as you get on the express train with him, it may mean that you have gained a certain value. Opportunity to double.
Many club managers, including Benfica, Sporting Lisbon and even Porto, have a good cooperative relationship with the guy in front of them. After all, no one wants to get help from a boss in the agent circle. It is difficult to find connections like this. Assess its value.
It cannot be said that José Vega can already dominate Portugal with one hand, but at least he can do both. Especially those players who are preparing to go to La Liga to seek gold, they need to get on this line. Of course, if they want to go to Barcelona Exceptions for team performance.
Maybe Barcelona is the only city in Spain that will say NO to José Vega forever. Now as long as he dares to set foot on that land, he may be greeted by fists or flying kicks, or even bullets flying out of thin air that can directly hit his head. .
After all, it was this guy who made that shocking transfer. Without him, Barcelona would not have lost its captain. This hatred will be engraved in the bones of every Catalan and will never be eliminated. .
However, Lin Yi had no interest in that grudge. He didn't even know why this person came to him before the other party spoke. An agent holding Portugal's top star came to him? Well, it won't be the same as the group of aunts outside the base. . .
Lin Yi didn't know what attraction he had to him. At least for now, he could only be regarded as a kid who had just become famous in Porto City. He was not worthy of anyone coveting his performance, especially for such a well-known football player. broker.
"Sir, I don't know if you understand, but I already have an agent, and we have been working together for a while, and there are no problems between us. As for what you said about future cooperation, I think it's best It’s better that you talk to him, I really don’t know much about these things. If you need his phone number, I can tell you that he will be fully responsible for anything about me.”
Regardless of the purpose of the other party's trip, Lin Yi first knows that Mendes is the agent with whom he has signed a contract, not the guy who handed him a business card in front of him. As for whether he is a member of the agent circle The boss has nothing to do with him.
Lin Yi only remembered a sentence his mother taught him, that people should know how to be grateful. No matter why Mendes came to Sebatur to find him in the first place, at least he knew very well how much effort that guy had put in for him.
From settling the youth team contract with Sebatur, to going to Benfica to find connections for trial training, and even leaving Benfica and transferring to Porto, it is not that he has not caused trouble, but Mendes has never complained about anything, he just Do your best to help Lin Yi make amends.
And ever since he handed over his future to that guy, Mendes has always been focused on Lin Yi's interests. He would even call Mourinho and even da Costa every week to communicate about the matter. Lin Yi any questions.
From this point of view, Lin Yi has no reason to think that Mendes is an incompetent guy. Even if the guy standing in front of him may bring more benefits to him, he has not considered changing the door at this moment. Des thing.
"I know about this. Your agent's name is Mendes, right? He's a newbie who has just been in the industry for three or four years. Recently, I heard that he has made several good deals. He is a very capable guy. It's a pity that I haven't done it yet. Opportunity to get to know him.”
"He is great, and like you, he is a person with great potential. However, he does not seem to know that much about the football market outside Portugal, or I should say that he does not have the scope of contact he has now. So vast.”
"Perhaps he will do well in the future, but for now, he is still not that familiar with those big clubs. This is a trouble that a novice will inevitably encounter. After all, there are differences between people. Relationships always take time to test.”
"Maybe five years, maybe ten years. I think he will definitely achieve good results in the future, but ten years is too long for you. Isn't it a bit too late to go to the European arena to experience after ten years? Already? Your opponent at Sporting Lisbon has already taken the lead."
Lin Yi didn't know much about Cristiano Ronaldo's upcoming transfer to England, and he never cared about it, so when he heard José Vega say this to him, he seemed a little confused. , even looking confused.
Lin Yi will not care about these transfer rumors, because they have nothing to do with him, but it is simply too difficult to hide such a transfer from someone like José Vega. This guy has great connections and sense of smell in Portugal. He was too sensitive to miss such a big deal.
If it weren't for such a deal, maybe José Vega wouldn't be standing here today. He has smelled a threat from the deal, a threat from the industry, between 12 million and 46 million. The gap is huge, but no one can guarantee that it will not be surpassed tomorrow.
The transfer fee for a 17-year-old boy reached 12 million. This is really crazy news. Yes, this is an era when money in the football transfer market is rapidly depreciating, but José Vega still remembers Riquelme's transfer to Barcelona. At that time, it cost less than 11 million.
José Vega knows one thing very well, that is, Figo is already 30 years old after all, and there is not so much time left for him on the green field. He is still Portugal's number one brother, but who can guarantee that he will be the best in three or four years? , can he still stand at the top of the Portuguese national team?
Time will dull a person's ambitions, especially when a person's legs and feet begin to become sluggish. Figo is strong now, but what about in the future? He can't stay strong forever, ruthless time will take away all his talents and abilities.
The football field is so cruel. Today you are still a king, but tomorrow you may be nothing more than shit. José Vega has seen too many such examples, and the Brazilian who is preparing to become a Portuguese national in the Porto team is likely to be Figo's next opponent.
Not only the guy named Deco, but also these two guys under Mendes may be Figo's successor or replacement tomorrow.
They are young enough, and they still have time to make themselves stronger. These young guys will always be the most terrifying resource on the football field. Only by mastering this resource can you always be in the agent's circle. In an invincible position.
José Vega still has Figo, but what about in a few years? What else does he have? Life is not easy without an ace player in your hands. Now that you are the boss in the Portuguese agent circle, it is very likely that no one will know you in a few years.
When José Vega heard that the Lisbon boy was about to transfer to Manchester United for 12 million pounds, he had already sensed his own crisis. Now was the time to take action. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that he still had such a good relationship. When the net hits the net, go dig for the next Figo.
And the kid in front of him is very likely to be the next treasure. At least from now on, he may have more market value than the kid who transferred to Manchester United. This makes José Vega unable to help but dig it up. Human thoughts are put into action.
Maybe this kind of poaching behavior among peers is very shameful, but José Vega is confident in completing this deal. As long as he can dance well with his hoe, there is no corner that cannot be poached. For this black-haired boy, No matter how despicable it is, it's worth it.
If there is still time, José Vega even wants to reach out to the kid who is about to go to Manchester United, but he wants to get the little guy in front of him to change clubs as soon as possible. He will use good relationships and operations to build him up Become a new Portuguese idol.
"At least in the short term, it can be foreseen that it will be a bit difficult for your current agent to allow you to play abroad, especially for some wealthy clubs. If you need to play abroad, you can come to me. Hopefully it’s a win-win outcome.”
It has to be said that José Vega has behaved like a gentleman up to now. Even when poaching, he behaves so gracefully and does not sound like a businessman. Perhaps it is the self-confidence accumulated over the years that has given him such cultivation.
He didn't seem to be in a hurry, it was just that he was putting the pros and cons in front of the little black-haired guy, letting him choose for himself, and he was just the hunter who provided the bait. He seemed to have seen what the little guy looked like when he took the bait. .
This kind of temptation may be something that many people cannot refuse. Just like when Figo first returned to José Vega, some of these young players do not yearn for a colorful world and a lot of money. .
The fame of a superstar, the superior annual salary, the high net worth, and the dazzling lights surrounding him. José Vega is familiar with all of this. He also knows that the generous offer he offers will impress many people. As long as this kid is a diamond, he will Just let him shine.
José Vega's business card was rolling between Lin Yi's fingers. Lin Yi was a little silent. You could tell that he was thinking about something. José Vega wanted to hear the answer he wanted most.
After a long silence, Lin Yi raised his head, but he didn't say anything directly. Instead, he handed back the business card in his hand and then said.
"A suggestion that sounds good, but it doesn't suit me. Again, Mendes is my agent. I have no intention of replacing him until he chooses to terminate the contract. Thank you, Mr. Vega." It’s his kindness, but leave this business card to those who need him.”
Lin Yi's decision surprised José Vega. What? reject? José Vega was wondering whether there was something wrong with his ears, whether he had heard something wrong, but a young man who had just become famous rejected him for an agent who was also a novice.
"Don't you want to go to Europe? Portugal is not a good place to become famous. You definitely need the right person to guide you there."
José Vega did not give up. He was no longer in the mood to pretend to be a gentleman at this time. Instead, he was hinting very bluntly to Lin Yi that he was the one who pushed him to be the best in the European arena. Apart from him, there was no one else. People are more suitable for this role.
He didn't know what made this kid reject him. Was there something in this kid's head that was in the wrong place? What he gave up was an opportunity that soared into the sky. It was very necessary for José Vega to let this kid Guy clearly realizes his mistake!
"Mr. NO, I will go, but not with you, but with my own agent. His name is Jorge Mendez, who is also a friend of mine."
"He helped me go from the orphanage to the professional field, so I will not betray my friends, even if he only values my football talent, so I will not terminate the contract with him, sir, I think we That should end our conversation today, I still need to train.”
Lin Yi's answer this time was very direct. He was a little tired of this kind of conversation now. For someone who was so obsessed with betraying his friends, he felt that there was no need to continue the conversation unless he was free enough to talk nonsense. .
"He can't take you to a wealthy club. I am the only one in Portugal who has this ability. What you are giving up is an opportunity to make yourself famous. This kind of opportunity does not come often. You'd better think about it carefully!" José Vega also said Not wanting to give up, he shouted at Lin Yi's back.
"Okay, thank you for your kindness. I don't want to be like Figo and let someone give me a cooked pig's head for free. I was a prostitute in my last life and I am not used to eating pork. Keep your pig's head at home and make soup. Goodbye! "
Lin Yi didn't even turn his head this time. There was no need to pretend to be polite with this guy anymore. When a guy who could pretend to be a gentleman loses his cool, he no longer has much grace, and Lin Yi doesn't have to anymore. How to save him any face.
Mourinho looked at Lin Yi who was walking towards him, and then at José Vega who left the training ground angrily. He just asked.
"That guy still has the ability to push you into the five major leagues. Although I don't like his approach, this opportunity is a good choice for you. Do you really don't have to think about it anymore?"
"Okay, uncle, my silence does not mean that I am considering whether to leave Mendes, but that I am considering how to reject him. I have not the habit of betraying friends, and I don't think Mendes will do anything better than that. He sucks."
"He can use Figo's reputation to become Portugal's number one agent, so why can't Mendes do that, don't forget, he has me, unless you think I have no chance in my life of surpassing Luis Figo "
"Well, I believe you can surpass him, so now you need to finish today's 10,000 meters. Go ahead, I've started the timer." Mourinho's answer was very concise, and it also made Lin Yi very upset.
Another 10,000 meters... Damn it... Lin Yi could only curse the wretched uncle in front of him in his heart...
