Chapter 46 Chen Tao's Transfer Issue "Brother Chen, how is your transfer going?" After being signed by Barcelona, ​​Feng Xiaoting called Lin Feng to tell him the good news and also asked him to get together when they had time. Since we are all working hard in a foreign country, it is natural for us to stick together. Lin Feng naturally agreed to this invitation. He also suggested that after Chen Tao's transfer was finalized, he would call Chen Tao and the three of them would get together. After hanging up the phone with Feng Xiaoting, Lin Feng called Chen Tao to ask about the situation there. There has been almost no movement from Chen Tao during this period, and even there are few rumors about his transfer in Europe. This made Lin Feng feel something was a little strange. Something must have happened, otherwise it wouldn't be so quiet. "Hehe, that's not going very smoothly."

Chen Tao's tone sounded a little tired, as if he had done something or experienced something, and felt exhausted. "what happened?" Lin Feng knew that Chen Tao was not a person who liked to joke, so what he said was not just that things were not going well, but that things were extremely not going well. "The club is unwilling to let him go and wants a transfer fee of 700 million euros, but the other party is only willing to give 500 million at most, leaving a gap of 200 million." Chen Tao had a wry smile on his face. If the 200 million was RMB, he could scrape together some, borrow some from relatives and friends, and maybe he could get it together. But the club wanted 200 million euros, which is close to 2000 million RMB. This amount of money was far beyond his ability to afford. Even if he borrowed from all his friends, he still couldn't raise the money. During this period, he and his agent approached the club for negotiations many times, hoping that the club would be more lenient and not ask for such an outrageous price. But in the face of huge profits of tens of millions of RMB, the club is obviously unwilling to make concessions. What's more, even Feng Xiaoting's transfer fee can reach 550 million euros (in the previous chapter, we listened to the readers' suggestions and revised Feng Xiaoting's transfer fee from the original 750 million to 550 million!), there is no reason for a talented player like Chen Tao to be cheaper than him! If there weren't so few suckers like Inter Milan, they would even dare to ask for the same 2000 million euro transfer fee as Lin Feng. Therefore, Shenyang Jinde feels that they have made great concessions, and 700 million euros is their bottom line. It is precisely because the club's attitude is very firm, many negotiations have been fruitless, and it is really impossible to raise enough money to fill the gap, that Chen Tao feels so tired and exhausted. He felt that his hope of studying abroad had been wiped out. "What's the name of the European team you're in contact with? I'll ask someone to find out what's going on there." "That team is from the Bundesliga, called Werder Bremen. It is said to be a strong team in the Bundesliga." It turned out to be Werder Bremen! When Lin Feng was playing in the German second division, he had heard of this team many times. This is a Bundesliga team from the north. Although they cannot be called a top club, judging from their results in the past few seasons, they are indeed a strong team that can compete with Bayern for the championship. If Chen Tao goes to Werder Bremen, it would be a good place to go. This team has the world's top forwards, Klose and Krasnic, who form the Double K combination. The offensive firepower on the front line is very strong. It is currently the most powerful team in the Bundesliga, without a doubt. Werder Bremen's current main midfielder is the French international, 32-year-old John Micoud.

This is an outstanding player and a true midfield master. He can consistently create more than 20 goals for the team every season. Without him, Werder Bremen's offensive firepower will directly drop to a level. But the Frenchman is old after all. After failing to be selected for the French national team, he became disheartened and prepared to leave the Bundesliga and return to Ligue 1 to retire. In this case, Werder Bremen is eager to find a midfield core who can replace Micoud. Chen Tao's performance in the World Youth Championship is in line with Werder Bremen's requirements. For a non-elite team like Werder Bremen, a transfer fee of 500 million euros is definitely not a small amount. This shows that the other party is really sincere. But Shenyang Jinde asked for 700 million, which was completely beyond the other party's affordability. Werder Bremen is not Bayern Munich, how can they have so much money! Lin Feng has some connections in the German football world, so he asked someone and confirmed that this was Werder Bremen's bottom line. Even when Shenyang Jinde had been slow to agree to their offer, they had already considered giving up on bringing in Chen Tao and looking for someone else. This is undoubtedly very disadvantageous for Chen Tao. Once you miss this opportunity, it will be very difficult to find such a suitable team again. Chen Tao was obviously well aware of this, which was why he was so anxious. "Haha, Brother Chen, pack your things and get ready to report to the team!" "Well, I plan to go to the club and admit my mistake. Since I can't go abroad, I have to stay here in Jinde, so I have to bow my head!" Chen Tao let out a long sigh, as if he had accepted his fate. This is not the first time he has surrendered to Shenyang Jinde. When the team forced them to renew their contract at the beginning of the year, they resisted but ultimately failed. That time he apologized to the club and surrendered. Now that it’s happening again, the psychological resistance is not as great as before. "Huh? I'm talking about reporting to Werder Bremen. What are you thinking about?" Lin Feng was almost speechless because of Chen Tao. How could he be so pessimistic? Just because your relatives and friends can't come up with that much money doesn't mean I can't either. Why don't you ask me for help? "Reporting to Werder Bremen? But that 200 million..." "Don't worry about the 200 million. Just go and register first. I'll just lend you the money. If you feel embarrassed, just treat me to a meal later." "I'm so embarrassed. I'm afraid I won't be able to pay back 200 million for a long time in the future!" Chen Tao owed Lin Feng such a big favor and felt very guilty about it. The amount of money is too large, and the other party has not known me for long, and we don’t know each other well. Yet, under such circumstances, I am still willing to take a huge risk and lend him the money. Chen Tao was so moved that he didn't know what to say. "Don't be so fussy. Are you still a man if you are so shy? If you really feel bad about it, I have a solution." "Oh? What can I do?" "Nine out and thirteen back!" "You are so cruel! You might as well let me sell myself to you!"

Chen Tao protested loudly. He felt that he could not even pay back the 200 million yuan. If he had to pay such high interest on top of that, it would be like signing a contract to sell himself. "It's not impossible. My eldest brother has opened an agency, but he hasn't signed any players yet. How about you bear with it and become his first signed player?" (End of this chapter)
