Chapter 152 Making Money
Judging from Thiago Mota's career history, this is a good short-term investment. m
But it is not suitable to start now.
Because he still has a year of injury at Atletico Madrid.
As mentioned earlier, Chang Sheng himself is not a genius doctor, and it is impossible for the plug-in system to transform the player's physique—although the attribute [Physique] does exist among players, and the meaning of this attribute is indeed related to the tendency to be injured.
But this is a hidden attribute, and it is impossible to provide training skills to improve.
Coupled with the fact that Lazio is so poor that they can't even afford a professional team doctor, it is even more impossible to cure Motta's injury.
The best time to buy Motta is after the end of the 2007-2008 season.
At that time, Motta, who was injured for a season, only played six games in Atletico Madrid, and Atletico Madrid was also convinced. I don't think it is necessary to keep such a waste in the team.
So they terminated the contract with Motta, and Motta joined Genoa as a free agent.
Genoa didn't spend a penny, and sold it to Inter Milan after one season, making a net profit of 13 million euros.
It is impossible for Chang Sheng not to do such a cost-effective deal.
He just needs to wait patiently for one more season to get this player for free.
Chang Sheng recorded Motta in his memo and set the time. After the end of the season, when the time is up, the computer will notify him that it is time to introduce Mota.

Although Lotito is a businessman, there are some things in common.
He is proficient in negotiating.
Chang Sheng only needs to tell him the highest price the player can accept.
Chang Sheng doesn't have to worry about the rest.
In terms of saving money, Lotito has done a lot more than Chang Shengjue. He will pay less. And definitely will not come up with more transfer fees.
In previous transfer negotiations, he has shown his cheapskate characteristics in this regard.
this time,
Lotito did not disappoint Chang Sheng either.
A week later, news came from Spain.
Barcelona agree to sell Belletti to Lazio for 3.5 million euros.
But Chang Sheng was shocked when he heard the price.
Because Chelsea spent 5.5 million euros to take Belletti away from Barcelona. And Barcelona spent 5.3 million euros when they poached Belletti from Villarreal.
It can be said that Barcelona is losing money.
So Chang Sheng was very surprised that Lotito was able to keep the price down so low.
He also had to admit that Lotito was a genius...
If he does not become the chairman of the club but the general manager of the club, he will also become a famous manager in world football.
※ ※ ※
After getting the transfer approval from Barcelona. Lazio began to negotiate a personal contract with Belletti.
Belletti does not object to changing the environment, and he has no objection to going to Lazio. Anyway, he has an Italian passport.
Belletti is negotiating here.
Chang Sheng turned around and called Blanco.
"Lichtsteiner can be sold to you, but it will cost 10 million euros, which is not a penny. He is the main right back of the league championship team. He is a Swiss international. He is still young and has a bright future. He's worth the price. If Juventus don't agree, then we won't sell."
Blanco had absolutely nothing to say to disagree.
Everyone has made it clear that it is 10 million euros, whether they accept it or not.
The media didn't know about the negotiations between Barcelona and Lazio, so Blanco didn't know that Chang Sheng had found a substitute for Lichtsteiner, and he actually wanted to sell Lichtsteiner.
Ten million... After thinking about it, Juventus felt that they were not short of money. And Lichtsteiner is really good. the most important is. After Chiellini left. Juventus' defense is really in a hurry. They need a defender, no matter how much money they have, they must buy it.
In this way, Blanc gritted his teeth and nodded, agreeing to Lazio's price of 10 million euros.
※ ※ ※
On the day when the news of Lichtsteiner's transfer to Juventus was disclosed. The Lazio club also announced the arrival of Belletti.
It was only at this time that Blanco realized that he had been deceived by Chang Sheng—Chang Sheng had already found a way out for selling Lichtsteiner, and he only contacted himself after finding a way out ...and not what has been struggling for a week!
For his "struggling week", Juventus paid 10 million fucking euros...
Blanco breathed in his chest. I can't vent anything.
Maybe he could have bought Lichtsteiner for less than ten million at all.
All he can do now is hope that Lichtsteiner will use practical actions to prove that his ten million euros are worth it...

When Lichtsteiner left the team and Belletti came, Lazio had already entered the physical training phase.
Belletti had just arrived at the team. Fitness coach Elias Dominique and two medical consultants gave Belletti a very detailed physical examination in the hospital.
According to this medical examination report, Elias Dominique will design a targeted physical training plan for him.
This physical training plan is mainly to increase Belletti's muscle strength and prevent him from re-injury.
Elias Dominique and two medical advisors agreed that Belletti's muscle strength was too low to effectively protect his vital joints.
The training intensity is not high, but it is highly targeted.
This physical tour plan will help Belletti strengthen his resistance to injuries.
Although Chang Sheng knows that in history, Belletti did not have many injuries in the first two seasons of his transfer from Barcelona to Chelsea.
But who can guarantee that history will not turn a corner? I have rewritten too much history, because of my existence, many histories that were not related to me have also changed.
So he is not sure whether Belletti can really be relatively healthy in these two seasons.
After selling Lichtsteiner and bringing in Belletti. Lazio announced the complete end of transfers and signings.
Neither sell nor buy.
At this time, the media discovered that Chang Sheng really did what he said this summer.
He said that he would not make any big moves in the transfer market, but he really didn't make any big moves.
He said that most of his team is not for sale, but he really didn't buy a few people. Only Merlot and Lichtsteiner were sold.
Compared with his performance in the previous two seasons, this is really quite different.
"It seems that often there will be a day of sex change..." a media outlet complained.
This summer, Changsheng introduced Kolarov from the Belgrade ofk club, using up the only non-EU player signing quota.
This transfer was actually finalized a year ago, and it was postponed until now because there was no quota.
After Kolarov's arrival, Coentrao was loaned to Getafe.
Lichtsteiner also left Lazio. He earned 10 million euros for Lazio, of which Lazio bought a Belletti for 3.5 million, leaving 6.5 million euros left.
Merlot is the big money maker.
Twenty-eight million euros plus a Chiellini.
Chang Sheng made a lot of money!
Kolarov cost the club half a million euros.
In this way, Lazio is in the signing work this summer. It only cost four million euros.
The transfer income was as high as 34.5 million euros.
Regarding the income of Lazio in the transfer market every season, Chang Sheng has already discussed with Lotito.
At present, the top priority of the Lazio club is to repay the debt.
Although the Italian tax department promised Lazio to pay off the debt in installments within 23 years, and there is no interest.
But this is mortgaged by Lazio's annual sponsorship fee and training base.
Both felt that this was tantamount to letting Lazio carry the burden of 23 years.
Pay off your debt as quickly as possible, if you can.
In this way, the club will have the funds at their disposal that can be used to make waves in the transfer market and to increase wages to the highest standard. The current highest standard of two million euros is really too low, and it is really difficult for this kind of salary to attract those big-name players.
In order to maintain long-term competitiveness in football, big-name stars are naturally indispensable in the team.
So Chang Sheng agreed to hand over all the transfer fees earned in the transfer market to Lotito. Leave the money necessary to keep the club running. All the money was used to pay off debts.
Just like what he did in Valencia.
The only difference is that every year the Valencia club will give him a sum of money as transfer funds.
In Lazio, he didn't even have this money. If he wanted to buy someone, he had to sell someone first, after earning enough transfer fees from the transfer market. into the transfer market.
After the transfer is over, the remaining transfer fee will be given to the club, and the team will not keep any money.
In fact, when it comes to making money. Summer is the most convenient time to make money. Because there will be various commercial competitions.
Especially in North America and Asia.
Those football underdeveloped areas are full of desire for the teams in the top European leagues.
As the champion of Serie A, Lazio also has a Chinese head coach. It stands to reason that as long as they think about it, it is easy to make money in the Chinese market.
In fact, in the past two years, a Chinese sports culture operation company has approached Lazio, hoping to operate Lazio's activities to play commercial games in China.
But after Chang Sheng discussed with Lotito, Lotito resolved everything.
Because for a traveler like Chang Sheng, it is really not worthwhile to earn such a small amount of money by flying to China, which is thousands of miles away.
Generally speaking, except for a star-studded team like Real Madrid, other teams do not make much money in overseas markets.
That's really little money.
Generally, after a few games, it is considered pretty good to have an appearance fee of three to four million yuan.
And at this point, Chang Sheng made a few phone calls in his office, bought a player and made money.
The advantage of the traverser is reflected in this aspect, instead of running thousands of miles away to play commercial games, making his team exhausted, affecting normal pre-season preparations, and even affecting the entire season.
When the team's performance is not considered stable, and the lineup still needs to be adjusted, Chang Sheng will not let his team go to China again.
The loss suffered in Valencia, once is enough.
