Just do it. This is Zhuang Ge’s most intuitive impression of this "unprofessional" Al Thani king.
In 1994, the level of football in Qatar was, to be honest, not even a third-rate player in Asia was in charge of sports. It is very important for King Al-Thani to do well in sports, that is, they are rich and willing to spend money.
So in Qatar, Jin Yuan "inspired" roger mira, who is 42 years old, to come to Qatar first. He needed this expensive salary to help his African compatriots who are still in dire straits as much as possible.
Not Leaving Qatar Zhuang Ge asked for this "pick-up" job from King Al Thani after learning that roger mira would arrive in Doha by plane today. He wanted to meet this black player who was affectionately called "Uncle Mira" by the people of China.
Zhuang Ge met roger mira, an African football legend, successfully at Doha Airport in Qatar.
Uncle Mira is very tall. He is 1.5 meters tall, which is already tall among the players in the same period. Over the years, Uncle Mira has been improving the quality of life of his compatriots. He has wrinkles on his eyes and forehead, which is much older than when he was in the 9 th World Cup.
Zhuang Ge took the lead in paying tribute to Uncle Mira, who "let the world know African football again". "Hello, Mr. Milla, I am Antonio Corleone, president of the Italian Florence Club"
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Corleone." Uncle Mira looked around doubtfully and found that there were other people besides Zhuang Ge and another white-collar woman with a cold expression. "I remember that I came to Qatar League at the invitation of King Al Thani …"
"Ha ha, of course I know this, but I just picked you up for King Al Thani."
Uncle Mira couldn’t help but feel a little touched when he heard Zhuang Ge say this. Uncle Mira worked hard in Europe. Of course, he knew the meaning of Corleone’s surname. He didn’t expect the Corleone family to be able to pose and pick him up in person.
Although uncle Mira is simple and African, he is not stupid. He realized that Zhuang Ge must have another plan to pick up the plane himself this time.
"Mr. Corleone can’t have come to meet me in person, can he? What do you want to say to me? "
"Well, I’d like to invite Mr. Milla to be your liaison with our GM company in Africa."
"GM company?" Uncle Mira, who has been working in Africa in recent years, doesn’t know much about what happened in Italian football. "What kind of company is this?"
"A brokerage company just established in Italy, if you agree to take this job, you will have the right to recommend players to GM. Players will get a brokerage contract after passing the company’s audit. If they want to land in European companies, they will be transported to the team that is most suitable for them. Mr. Milla, please see this is the list of members of our company’s board of directors."
Milla took the list of directors handed over by Karin and gasped at first sight. He knew what these directors’ names stood for when they were put together, which meant that the company could ensure that its contracted players could find a job in Italy instead of being unemployed at home.
If so, perhaps I can let more seedlings who can hang out in Africa enter Europe for professional training through this GM company. At worst, I can also send them to Qatar for gold mining through the "big shot" King Al Thani.
Uncle Mira thought so and quickly made a decision. "Mr. Corleone, I agree. It’s happy."
"Happy Mr. Milla" Zhuang Ge wants to attract a large number of future African stars to GM through Uncle Mira’s hope in Africa. The latest batch is the "golden generation" who led Nigeria to win the Olympic gold medal, as well as post-Eto ‘o, Drogba, Toure brothers and Essien … These are all "quality assets" that make the team drool in later generations!
After signing Uncle Mira’s joint venture in Africa, Zhuang Ge informed manager valentini to let GM be responsible for introducing players to Qatar League, so GM Company was just established to take over the first large-scale business from Zhuang singer, and Al Thani Wang also boldly stated that GM Company needs to be responsible for getting players to agree to participate in Qatar League, so Qatar Football Association will personally send someone to solve the problem of player transfer, and the Football Association will introduce players to GM Company for a "grading" according to players. Different levels of GM companies will get different levels of "introduction" grading standards, mainly based on whether the players have played in the national team, participated in intercontinental competitions, participated in the World Cup and won any honors, etc …
I learned this news from valentini and Zhuang Ge. Genoese players are very happy. Although these people don’t have much spare money, they have started their own contacts. In a short time, they persuaded several players who have announced or are on the verge of retirement but want to earn a little more "pension" and recommended them to GM. After these players signed a brokerage contract, they "introduced" them to Qatar Football Association.
The efficiency of Qatar Football Association is also extremely efficient. After receiving the "face" sent by these players, the staff of the Football Association quickly graded the grades and remitted a sum of money to GM Company. Part of the money will be returned to the directors of Genoa in the company’s operation and development (note that "intermediary" has been included in the company’s operation).
Zhuang Ge asked for a list of people who have been successfully recommended to Qatar League from valentini and found that there are really many "big names".
Alessandro Altobelli won one World Cup, one Serie A and two Italian Cups. Level A introduced $10,000;
Aldo serena was a member of the Italian national team in 1999, a UEFA Cup champion, four Serie A champions and an Italian Cup champion. The top scorer in Serie A in 1999 introduced $10,000;
Cabrini won six Serie A titles, two Italian Cups, one European Champions Cup, one UEFA Cup, one European Winners Cup, one European Super Cup and one Toyota Cup in the main player era in 1992.
……
Uncle Mira, who has arrived in Doha, announced to join the newly established Alsad Club after consultation with the Qatar Football Association. The annual salary is 10,000 US dollars for one year, not to mention the long retirement. Uncle Mira’s comeback has caused discussion in international football. This salary alone is enough to attract many players.
In this way, the "oil storm" broke out ten years before the little butterfly Zhuang Ge "incited" the Qataris.
Note: At that time, the salary of players was generally low. ian rush, the top center of the English League, earned only 5 pounds a week. In 1994, he was at his peak. paolo maldini earned 150 thousand dollars a year.
Chapter 27 Prison star ()
Because Zhuang Ge’s trip to Qatar was a temporary decision and King Al-Thani’s request for "players to be recommended" was a little sudden, Zhuang Ge decided to dig up some potential players who were about to retire and get some money from them, so he bid farewell to King Al-Thani and boarded a flight to Rome with Karin.
Karin wondered why Zhuang Ge chose Rome as the destination for bringing in players. In her own impression, there is no suitable target in Rome.
Signori? It is impossible for Lazio, the top scorer in Serie A, to sell him is tantamount to digging his own grave. A star like signori will not choose to join a dirty little league at this time, even if he pays several times his current contract, not to mention signori, another Italian striker of Lazio. Even if cragnotti wants to sell, he will never be sold to Qatar League.
Is it Gianini? This is simply a fantasy. Giannini, the symbol of the Roman club, was called "King of Rome" by the fans (Totti later took over the title from Gianini). If he was sold to Qatar like this, it is estimated that Franco Sensi will be tied to the cross by Roman fans for the city parade the next day.
The fame of Justa, Totti and Grandoni is limited to young Italian players. Both clubs in Rome regard them as the future hope of the team, and it is even more impossible to sell them to other clubs.
Karin really can’t imagine which "Roman" striker Zhuang Ge saw on the plane. She asked several times and always got Zhuang Ge’s expression of "the cat is not leaked"
Because Zhuangge doesn’t have a private car at present, Karin rented a car at random from the car rental company near the airport, but unlike before, Karin rented a car that was a little shabby.
"How did Sister Karin rent such an old car this time?" Zhuang Ge asked doubtfully that Karin always picked the best car when renting a car.
"Tony, do you have a problem with that?" Karin turned her head and gave me a dangerous smile. "I’m a real person and I won’t pretend to be a god stick like some people."
"Of course not!" It turned out that I really took revenge on myself for pretending to be on the plane.
After the car, Zhuang Ge took out a post-it note from his briefcase and motioned Karin to take the car to the post-it note to write the address.
Karin has been to Rome many times and is very familiar with the road conditions in Rome. She drove straight to her destination according to the post-it note address. After more than half an hour, the car finally arrived at the destination in the suburbs of Rome.
"Tony, are you sure you didn’t say the wrong address?" As soon as she got on the bus, Karin was surprised to find that the destination written in the note was not a club or a private house in her imagination, but a special "violent" machine
I’ve been sitting in the car, complaining about cheap rented things, and I’m glad I finally arrived at my destination before I got carsick completely.
Zhuang Ge walked in the car and rubbed his temples and looked up. "Yes, this is it!"
Karin didn’t guess the "destination" of this one. There is a sign at the gate that says Lazio Second Prison.
After learning the identity of the newcomers, the warden did not dare to neglect to invite Zhuang Ge directly to the warden’s office, but it was somewhat difficult when the warden asked Zhuang Ge what he had come for.
Zhuang Ge was puzzled by this. Although he didn’t know much about the Italian judicial and prison system, he never thought it would be so difficult to visit an "ordinary" prisoner.
"Mr. warden, do you mean that I have no interest in visiting the prisoner?" Because of some bad impressions of violence in previous lives, Zhuang Ge didn’t like to deal with these people all the time, so he just came straight to the point and asked questions.
The warden paused, but then he reacted and felt that the other party should have misunderstood the meaning of his words, so he further explained it to Zhuang Ge.
