Chapter 221 Transfer Budget

I met Abramovich again in a five-star hotel in Huangtian Group in Shanghai.

Because they had not agreed to each other yet, the meeting this time was a bit low-key. Abramovich did not come to China at a high profile. He just arrived in Shanghai secretly with Pini Zahavi.

The last time we met, although Ye Qiu had already become famous, he had not yet established his position. Abramovich was just an ordinary rich man or had a little interest in football. But this time we met again, one of them was the head coach of the Champions League and the other was the boss of the club, and their identity and status had changed.

What remains unchanged is Abramovich's humble smile when he saw Ye Qiu, which always makes people feel friendly.

"It's you, Mr. Ye Qiu, I decided to buy Chelsea after watching your game."

This is the first sentence Abramovich said after seeing Ye Qiu, with a smile, but he is very sure that no matter whether he wants to put Ye Qiu on it or not, at least, this sentence shows his sincerity.

"Thank you, Mr. Abramovich" Ye Qiu thanked him politely.

Because this time was a meeting on business, Huang Chu was not accompanied. After she arrived in Shanghai, she went to visit her parents, while Ye Qiu went directly to the hotel for talks. After the talks, he would also visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

"Please call me Roman, I like to be closer among friends." Abramovich smiled.

"Then..." Ye Qiu smiled, "Let's just be it, Roman."

"Very good, Ye Qiu." Abramovich was very satisfied with Ye Qiu's response. Since the first meeting, he felt that Ye Qiu was very good. This was an indescribable feeling. Anyway, the first impression was very good.

"I have had in-depth contact with Miss Moon before. I believe my sincerity, and you should feel it. I really want to make Chelsea a top-notch team in Europe. I think you may be able to give me the answer."

Ye Qiu shook his head, "I think, Roman, your ambition is too small."

"Oh?" Abramovich was a little surprised.

"Chelsea itself is already a powerful Premier League team. Although it is unlikely to win the championship, it is a strong contender for the qualification of the Champions League every year." Ye Qiu's positioning of Chelsea is still very accurate.

Let’s talk about the current Premier League, Manchester United and Arsenal compete for the top two. The two teams can be said to be the super strong teams in the Premier League. Then Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea have relatively stable performances. Among them, Chelsea’s problems are relatively complicated. Bates has invested huge investment in recruiting in the past few years, and the team’s strength has improved a lot, but the finances have not been enough and they almost went bankrupt.

But no matter what, Chelsea's strength in recent years is obvious to all.

"If you buy Chelsea and invest huge amounts of money, it's just to become the first-class team in Europe. Then I will tell you that I have no interest in this goal at all." Ye Qiu shook his head without hesitation. He knew very well that at this time he had to show enough confidence and ambition to impress this person, so that he could win the greatest bargaining chips and benefits for himself.

"If I go to Chelsea, my goal is to break the dominance of Manchester United and Arsenal over the Premier League. I not only want to make Chelsea the best and most competitive team in the Premier League, but I also want to send Chelsea to the Champions League podium within four years and become a European giant."

In Ye Qiu's view, the so-called wealthy family needs heritage and tradition. These are all false. Now is the era of fast consumption and the era of informatization. If you have enough influence and popularity, that is, the wealthy family.

So, where does influence and attention come from?

Results and stars

After winning the Champions League, Ye Qiu has a lot of confidence in his coaching ability. Moreover, he has not slacked off after winning the Champions League. He still studies in the Godfather's systematic learning house every day, constantly increasing his value. So now Ajax can no longer satisfy him. He wants to go to a higher platform to meet higher challenges.

As for the stars, who can know better than Ye Qiu, who can become a star in the future?

Abramovich just said that he was more polite. His hope for Chelsea was to become a wealthy family. So now he heard Ye Qiu say this, and he was very happy and firmly determined his idea, that is, Ye Qiu is the best choice for him to build the Blues dynasty.

Of course, everyone will say it, but the question is how to do it.

Pini Zahavi was very knowledgeable and tactful. After Ye Qiu finished speaking, Abramovich had digested it, and he asked with a smile: "Mr. Ye Qiu, please forgive me for taking the liberty. I am very interested in your goal and do not doubt that you have the ability to achieve this goal, but I really want to know, how do you think you can achieve this goal?"

Ye Qiu had already made preparations for this, and he was already thinking about this issue on the plane from Xiamen to Shanghai.

"First of all, I think it's certain that the team is transformed. For example, goalkeeper De Huye is already dU and hasn't played much in the past two years. Kudicini is good at strength, but for a team that is determined to win the championship, they are not suitable. If it were me, I would terminate the contract with De Huye and introduce a powerful goalkeeper to compete with Kudicini."

Abramovich and Pini Zahavi both listened very seriously. In terms of professional tactics, they were not as good as Ye Qiu.

"The most important problem for Chelsea is that the entire first team seems to have many stars, but in fact, there are very few stars who are really playing in their years. Deselli, Petit, Ferrer, Zora, even Zeden and Glenshare. I believe I don't need to say much about these. You only need to pay attention to Chelsea who passed the last season and know this problem."

An important measure that Bates chose to strengthen the team's strength was to introduce some outdated former stars, such as Deselli and Petit, who were both players who had passed their peak and were rapidly descent.

Looking at the entire Chelsea lineup, the aging problem is so serious that when the scorer Haselbainke arrived at Chelsea, he criticized the club's aging strategy in an interview with the media, believing that he was a young man in the team, which shows how serious the aging problem of Chelsea is.

In Ye Qiu's view, in Chelsea's first team, goalkeeper Kudicini, defenders Galas and Terry, midfielder Lampard, forward Hasselbaink and Goodjohansen, these players can be said to be the core combat power of Chelsea now.

As for Deselli, Petit, Zora and others, Ye Qiu believes that they have already passed their peak period.

"I believe you all know that the Premier League is gradually moving towards technicalization, but not any team can easily complete technicalization. Even now, Wenger's team still coexist with roughness and technology. Ferguson wants to play technology, but Veron has become his embarrassing luxury."

"So, I can say with great certainty that with Chelsea's current situation, it is difficult to reform it all at once. How to adapt to the Premier League style of the mainland tactics will take some time to explore and study, so I need time to slowly improve the team, but I can be sure that I will not change in pursuing the concept of offensive football."

The technicalization of the Premier League is indeed a very troublesome thing, because the head coach needs to balance the skills of the mainland department and the traditions of the Premier League local department. It is too detailed and cannot survive in the fast-paced Premier League. It is too rough, and it is difficult to gain a foothold in European competitions.

But a team cannot establish two completely different tactical systems, because players will be confused during the continuous switching. Football and tactics have always been an industry where practice makes perfect. Whether it is the player's skills or the team's tactics, they are all the results obtained through repeated training.

Why can players turn skills into instincts? It is because the same is true for practicing the team

Ye Qiu can now say that he wants to balance his skills and the traditional Premier League style, but how can he balance it?

The players introduced themselves are technical departments, that is technical flow, and the Premier League style is introduced, that is traditional style. Could it be that a lot of players with traditional Premier League styles are involved and they have to play mainland technical flow? Is that possible?

Ye Qiu would definitely not make such mistakes, but he would definitely not give up on his pursuit of technological progress, and he had already come up with a good solution to the problem.

When Abramovich and Zahavi heard the rough ideas Ye Qiu said, they couldn't help but be surprised, and then praised them, because Ye Qiu's idea is indeed the best way for Chelsea's transition period, which can not only ensure the team's combat effectiveness, but also better allow players and coaches to become familiar with the Premier League environment.

"I am more confident than ever when I heard you say this." After Abramovich and Zahavi looked at each other, it was difficult to hide their appreciation and admiration for Ye Qiu in their eyes. At least Ranieri had never given him such expectations before. "In short, no matter how much money you want, as long as you think the team needs it, you can introduce it."

"Don't you want me to be a rich man?" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Abramovich laughed, "Beckham, Veron, Ferdinand, Van Nie, Henry, Vieira, Pire... In short, no matter who you like, and he is willing to come to Chelsea, you can talk with confidence and boldly."

Zahavi listened on the side and added, "Roman is full of confidence in you. After he acquired Chelsea and paid off all his debts, he even left a huge sum of up to 100 million pounds to be used in the transfer market. In today's football world, this amount of money can definitely form a strong lineup that will impact the championship."

Even though Ye Qiu was already prepared for Abramovich's big move, when he heard about the billion pounds, his heart still jumped involuntarily. This was a full 300 million euros. I'll take it, who can I buy this?

Don’t think about superstars. Zidane, Ronaldo, Figo and others have no hope. First of all, they may not be willing to come to Chelsea, and Real Madrid are not short of money. In addition, to find them, at least it must be an astronomical figure. Ye Qiu is unwilling to do such a deal.

If you don’t dig for superstars, the best and most effective way is to dig for those cost-effective stars.

To be honest, Ye Qiu is not interested in superstars, because these superstars are often not too hungry for honor, which makes them easy to be distracted, causing inconvenience to the head coach's management and affecting the team's atmosphere.

Ye Qiu likes the most are those quasi-first-class stars who are strong but not famous enough and need a transformation. Such stars are often more hungry for honor, more fighting spirit, and more devoted. They are passionate when playing, and their combat effectiveness is amazing.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu couldn't help but look up at Abramovich, and found that the Russian was looking at him with a smile. A trace of enlightenment flashed through his heart. This guy directly asked Zahavi to spend 300 million euros. It is estimated that there is no meaning of testing himself, otherwise, wouldn't he stare at him?

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu smiled, "How much transfer fee is, in my opinion, the problem is not very big. There is a way to play with more money, and there is a way to play with less money. I am in Ajax, and the annual transfer budget is 10 million. When I was coaching the team, I was scolded by fans by 3 million and I was so angry that I squandered it. But what about the end?"

Ye Qiu's confidence comes from his achievements. He does not feel complacent with this. After all, being able to achieve such results has the advantage of his time traveler. But in front of Abramovich and others, he wants to show his confidence and value. Otherwise, how can they delegate power to themselves?

"Well said, the transfer fee does not mean everything, I agree with this." Abramovich admires Ye Qiu's rationality very much. If he is just confused by the transfer fee, such a head coach has limited knowledge, which will greatly reduce Abramovich's impression of him.

"But I still said that the team's transfer budget this summer is 100 million pounds."

The euro and pound are a lot different, 5 times.

"Then I can also promise that in the new season, you will see a Chelsea who is completely different from anyone or any team, but full of combat effectiveness," Ye Qiu also assured confidently.

With Ye Qiu's promise and guarantee, negotiations on many things have become very simple. Abramovich promised to give Ye Qiu the greatest competitive power. The club management will never affect his coaching in the team. At the same time, he was given 300 million euros as the transfer budget. The specific details can be discussed again, that is, 300 million is not the bottom line.

In addition, in terms of personal contract treatment, Abramovich also gave Ye Qiu enough sincerity, because Chelsea currently promised to give the latter a weekly after-tax salary of 90,000 pounds in negotiations with the team captain Terry, and Ye Qiu asked for one in the contract, that is, he must be the highest salary in the team.

Originally, Eliza thought the other party would argue about this matter, but unexpectedly, Abramovich waved his hand and had a weekly salary of 150,000 pounds after tax, which also made Ye Qiu's annual salary reach UU, or 9 million euros.

This is not all. Abramovich promised that every time Ye Qiu won a championship, FA Cup, League Cup, League Cup, League Championship, 3 million euros, and 5 million euros in the European Championship. If he won the Cup and Champions League championships at the same time, the prize money would be superimposed to RU, and if it was the league and the Champions League, it would be 10UU,000 euros. If it was unfortunate, Ye Qiu followed Manchester United and won the triple crown, the prize money alone would be more than 15UU,000.

This is definitely a shocking bonus, because you should know. When Manchester United won the triple crown in 1999, Ferguson only received a prize of 1.5 million euros, but now Ye Qiu only has this number as long as he wins a cup championship.

Ferguson's salary is less than 3 million euros, less than one-third of Ye Qiu's. Wenger is equivalent to Ferguson.

Looking at the world football world, the closest salary to Ye Qiu is the English national team coach Eriksen, but the Englishman's salary is only 5 million pounds, or 7.5 million euros, which is still a long way from Ye Qiu. As for others, the distance is even further away.

Ye Qiu knew very well that the reason why this salary was high was because Abramovich wanted to rely on himself. If he did not show his due coaching ability, he might be fired anytime and anywhere.

"Abramovich is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Usually, people with courage like him are often possessive. So, don't be polite to me now, maybe one day, he will fire me anytime and anywhere." Ye Qiu said to Eliza with a smile after sending Abramovich and Zahavi away.

"What are you afraid of? After making a few years, you will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life," Eliza said with a smile.

Ye Qiu shrugged. He didn't care much about food and drink, but he had a higher expectation for himself in his heart. He wanted to realize it with his own ability, even if it seemed very difficult.

"I've decided." Eliza looked at Ye Qiu and announced with a smile.

“What to decide?”

Eliza stood up, "I decided to move the company's office to London. In the past three or four years, the foundation has been laid in the Netherlands, and the business has spread more broadly. We should look further. Going to London is undoubtedly a good choice."

It is definitely not wrong to hug Ye Qiu's thigh tightly.

Ye Qiu left all the company's affairs to Eliza, and he had no objection. Anyway, he could just get the money.

"By the way, our partner in Brazil sent a player report, suggesting that we can introduce potential players from Brazil at a low price, send them to the Dutch team for training, and then get a share of the players sold by the club in the future. I think this business can be done."

Ye Qiu is very disgusted with this kind of human trafficker-like business, but now South America and Africa are full of such trading models, and almost everyone is used to it. Even in his previous life, Tevez and Mascherano switched to West Ham United, they were exposed by the media, but that was just a small part of it.

The real insider involves almost all clubs, including wealthy families, and those agents, which are equivalent to the unspoken rules of world football. Who would be willing to take such a big mistake and offend everyone to reveal these truths?

If Eliza wants to become bigger and stronger in the field of agents, she naturally needs to contact these things. Therefore, Ye Qiu did not object, but just repeatedly stated that she would not be involved. Eliza also agreed not to care about anything and would not affect Ye Qiu.

"They all said that your vision is very accurate. I have asked them to draw a list and video reports of the players. You can find a few for me at that time." Eliza did not let go of Ye Qiu's development and utilization at all.

Ye Qiu also agreed readily to this, and for him, it was just a few words.
