Red Rebels

In a famous luxury restaurant in the center of Manchester, Xiao Yu was taken to the door of the box by the waiter. After knocking on the door, he found that there was not only Beckham in it.

"Eric Cantona?" Xiao Yu was a little surprised, this is a great player in the history of Manchester United.

"Hello, Mr. Xiao Yu, nice to meet you!" Cantona smiled and came over to say hello.

Xiao Yu looked at Beckham who opened the door for him. The latter shrugged and said that this was an ordinary lunch party. Besides Cantona, Roy Keane and Gary Neville were the two Beckhams. Mu's good friends are all there.

"It seems that you Manchester United have also started training?" Xiao Yu sat down and asked casually.

"Well, it has already started, but we participated in the European Cup, so we were allowed to return later." Gary Neville replied with a smile, he was the most honest of the group.

"Hey, Xiao Yu, don't say anything about you guys from Manchester United, you guys from Manchester United, you Red Rebels have been promoted to Ying 3, are you getting along so much with us?" Keane refuted Xiao Yu with a pretense of dissatisfaction.

"Oh, then I'll change it, but your temper seems to be quite grumpy today. Did you really go to the psychiatry department and take medicine today?" Xiao Yu asked Keen jokingly.

The latter was sitting next to Xiao Yu, and when he heard it, he grabbed his hand heavily and grinned, as if he was about to tear Xiao Yu apart, "His grandma's, if you let me know who is outside. Make my rumors, I will never let him go!"

A piece of news came out from the outside media recently, saying that Roy Keane was mentally ill and went to see a psychiatrist secretly, which immediately caused an uproar in England, especially Manchester.

"No, I think it's pretty good. If you don't like it on the court in the future, you will discard him. Anyway, you are crazy, no one will scold you or anything, but remember to bring medicine when you go out, I'm a little scared!" Xiao Feather laughed.

Keane can't do anything about him immediately. In terms of eloquence, he may not be able to compare to one Xiao Yu. You must know that the former chairman of Manchester United was abruptly told by him that he collapsed, although he still has Manchester United. shares, but the real power has become Peter Kenyon.

Cantona on the side was obviously a little surprised. He saw that Xiao Yu had a close relationship with Beckham and others, but he did not know why Beckham invited Xiao Yu under such circumstances.

But soon, Beckham made him understand.

"First of all, I should thank you, Xiao Yu!" Beckham raised the cup with boiled water.

Xiao Yu also lifted it up, but he was holding beer, touched Beckham's glass crunchy, and then drank the wine, "It's nothing, treat me to a few more meals if you have time. ."

Seeing Cantona's strange eyes, Beckham smiled, "Xiao Yu is a good friend of Mr. Steve Jobs, the chairman of Apple Corporation of the United States, and he is also a shareholder of Apple Corporation, and Apple Corporation recently launched a This model of MP3 sells very well in the market, and they plan to enter the European market, so they asked me to do an advertisement, which is the line that Xiao Yu helped pull."

Cantona suddenly understood, but soon he wanted to understand Beckham's deeper meaning.

At present, football does not pay much attention to the management of star portrait rights. However, as Manchester United, the most successful business operation in the world, the stars naturally know the importance of portrait rights, but it has been taken away by the club, and the stars can only be divided into one. A small part, but for these stars, that is the money the club makes from them, and there is no reason to give them away.

Especially a popular superstar like Beckham, how much is the annual advertising income, which is an amazing income, and it can even be said that it is higher than their salary.

"I have temporarily stopped this cooperation, Xiao Yu, you apologize to Mr. Jobs for me, I am really sorry, but I cannot accept this contract for the time being.

' Beckham said apologetically.

Xiao Yu looked at Beckham, then at Cantona, as well as the faces of Keane and Neville, and immediately knew that the meal was not easy. Obviously, these three were invited by the club to persuade Beckham. .

Just a few days ago, AC Milan offered Beckham a salary four times his current salary, which made Manchester United nervous. In addition, Beckham was not very happy with the British media. A few days ago His son's rape was even published on the front page of the newspaper, and even British Prime Minister Tony Blair himself came forward to refute the media's practice.

In this case, Beckham's determination to leave Manchester United is really unprecedented.

And obviously, his call to stop the cooperation with Apple is a signal that he wants to transfer.

"David, I don't think you should go to Italy. In terms of team strength, AC Milan is not as good as Manchester United. In terms of commercial development, Manchester United is the world's No. 1. I don't understand why you want to move to Italy? "Cantona was a little excited.

He can be said to have watched Beckham and others grow up, and has a very heavy weight in their hearts. Apart from Ferguson, I am afraid that he is the only one who can question Beckham and others like this, but Ferguson obviously will not have such Attitude, he will be tougher.

Although Keane is the captain of the team, he didn't say much on this issue, just listened silently, because he just got a contract from the club half a year ago, and the salary is as high as 52,000 pounds each. Zhou, which is why Beckham is so angry.

And Neville is equally silent, he also wants to fight for the higher salary he deserves.

I have to say that Peter Kenyon came to Cantona, and the candidate was absolutely correct. At least when he was questioned, Beckham did not dare to refute anything.

"Manchester United's meaning is very clear now, you don't mention transfers, you will get a new contract before Christmas." Cantona is talking about you here, obviously not specifically Beckham, but also Neville, and Once those two players were taken care of, the likes of Ryan Giggs, Scholes and Phil Neville were taken care of.

"David, Peter Kenyon told me that Manchester United can't give AC Milan as high a salary, the club can only give a maximum of 70,000 pounds a week, if you are not satisfied with that, the club agrees to you Transfer, whoever can pay £46 million in transfer fee can take you away, and within £70,000 a week, you are not for sale by the club!"

After speaking, Cantona stood up and sighed, "I really don't want to see your group of people falling apart just for money, I know that the club is sorry for you, and I know that the club's many practices make you feel Chilling, but don’t forget, you are players trained by Manchester United, and you are able to be today because of Manchester United!”

"Just think about it again, David, I'm waiting for your good news!"

After that, Cantona pleaded guilty to Xiao Yu, and then left first. He was specially invited by Peter Kenyon to persuade Beckham today.

After Cantona left, the atmosphere in the box became a little embarrassing. Keane couldn't say anything. In fact, he broke the news in an interview with the media before. He felt that some foreign players in the team, including Stam. The salary is terribly high, but local stars such as Beckham still choose to stay in the face of double or even triple the high salary of some foreign clubs.

As long as anyone with a discerning eye can see what these things are about, Cantona also knows, but he looks at it from his standpoint and does not want Beckham and others to leave.

Now Ryan Giggs and Scholes have also been involved with Spanish and Italian teams. If Beckham leaves at this time, the hearts of Manchester United's generals will also be scattered.

Xiao Yu, who has passed through, naturally knows what will happen in the future, but he can't guarantee that if history changes and Beckham leaves Manchester United, with the current situation, Manchester United's Golden Four midfielder will not be separated.

Once these four players are gone, Manchester United can indeed get a large transfer fee, but at what cost?

"I have a word, do you want to hear it, David?" Xiao Yu said suddenly, a little serious.

Beckham looked at Xiao Yu. He had always trusted Xiao Yu and felt that his views and insights were very original, so he nodded.

"This is not the time when you should leave, AC Milan is not the ideal place for you, and although I have a lot of respect for this giant club, I have to say that, purely from a personal development perspective, Cantona is right. Manchester United is better for you."

"Last year was the pinnacle of Manchester United and it was your pinnacle, I know you're sad that you didn't get the World Player of the Year, but isn't that an inspiration for you? You think if you want to be the most successful , Do you want to stay at Manchester United? Or go across the ocean to an unfamiliar environment?"

Needless to say, everyone knows the former, because the latter also has to take into account the risk of whether or not to integrate into the team. In fact, English people rarely play successfully abroad, and Beckham later moved to Real Madrid. It can only be regarded as a commercial success.

It's just that Xiao Yu stood in the position of a friend and the new owner of Manchester United. He didn't want Beckham to transfer, because this will inevitably cause a series of chain reactions, and then the English football world may be a big shock.

Some people may say that it is good to bring a big shock. A small team like the new Manchester United needs a big shock to have a chance to rise. However, once the big shock comes, it will definitely change the history that Xiao Yu knew in his previous life. The advantage of the new Manchester United has been broken, so why does Xiao Yu lead the new Manchester United to upgrade?

Of course, this selfishness is deeply hidden in Xiao Yu's heart. He uses rational analysis to explain the current environment for Beckham. He does not think that Beckham should transfer, but the negotiation with Manchester United should not be rushed. , but should strive for more benefits, such as image rights and other off-field revenue sharing.

It took more than three hours for a lunch to disperse, and several people divided things. Xiao Yu didn’t know what Beckham was thinking, but he felt that he had done his best. Ham, that Xiao Yu really can't help it.

He is the boss of the new Manchester United, and his mind is on the new Manchester United. He can't pester Beckham all day long and persuade him not to transfer, right?

Xiao Yu would also not do this kind of thing that benefits others and not oneself. He is not Lei Feng!
