Chapter 136

After finishing the endorsement activity of Yiwei Supermarket and having dinner with Mitchell, Snart and others, Jiang Xiaolin was about to ask Song Zhicheng to take him back to Alkmaar, but Song Zhicheng said to Jiang Xiaolin: "Don't worry, let's go to Ouzo Hotel."

Ouzo Hotel is not far from the business center, but Jiang Xiaolin didn't know what to do there. He had to attend training tomorrow morning and couldn't stay overnight in the hotel in Amsterdam.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin sat in the co-pilot of Song Zhicheng's car and asked: "What are you going there for?"

Song Zhicheng told Jiang Xiaolin that the professional agent he contacted for Jiang Xiaolin was waiting for them in the hotel and asked them to go over and talk.

Next, Song Zhicheng introduced Baker's basic situation to Jiang Xiaolin.

Hearing that Baker was actually Michael Ballack's agent, Jiang Xiaolin was really shocked and full of expectations.

World superstars like Ballack usually have very capable agents.

This can be seen from the fact that Baker was able to get Ballack to join Chelsea at a high salary.

If there is such an agent to help him, not to mention that he will not suffer any loss in terms of contract, he will also take fewer detours in his future career.

After all, such a powerful agent has a very strong network of contacts in European football.

This made Jiang Xiaolin look forward to the meeting.

In a suite at the European Hotel, Jiang Xiaolin met the German agent Beck and his assistant.

After introducing themselves to each other, Beck began to introduce his agency, his contacts, his players, and the successful transfers and commercial endorsements he had operated.

Beck's introduction made Jiang Xiaolin and Song Zhicheng quite excited.

However, Jiang Xiaolin is no longer the amateur player who was almost ignored at the beginning.

He can already gain a foothold in the Eredivisie, and he has scored 9 goals in 6 games and has a high goal rate. The offensive core of Alkmaar.

This is fundamentally different from those promising stars who are still playing in the youth team.

Signing an agent contract with those promising stars is a risky investment in the future. Signing a contract with a rising star in the Dutch Eredivisie like Jiang Xiaolin, who has already made a name for himself, is like picking up money.

Now there are no other agents to compete, just because Song Zhicheng did not spread the news.

As long as Song Zhicheng spreads the news that he does not want to be Jiang Xiaolin's agent, Jiang Xiaolin's threshold will be squeezed.

Therefore, Song Zhicheng did his best to fight for Jiang Xiaolin in terms of the agent's share ratio.

In the end, he even threatened that if Baker did not accept it, he would spread the news that Jiang Xiaolin wanted to change a new agent tomorrow, and there would be many people to be Jiang Xiaolin's agent.

Moreover, there are many agents in Europe who are more famous than Baker, and Jiang Xiaolin, who has already made a name for himself, does not have to worry about no one wanting him.

Jiang Xiaolin and Song Zhicheng's persistence made Baker very uncomfortable.

Except for superstars like Ballack, he has never signed such a low share ratio with a 16-year-old like Jiang Xiaolin.

However, the strength shown by Jiang Xiaolin made him reluctant to give up.

Especially the Chinese market behind Jiang Xiaolin. If Jiang Xiaolin really plays well and is recruited by the Olympic team or even the national team, how big will be the endorsement opportunities in China in the future?

Of course, this is just a bargaining chip that Jiang Xiaolin and Song Zhicheng said to put pressure on Baker. In fact, Baker didn't know that Chinese football players were almost scolded to shit in China and basically had no endorsement opportunities.

Even if Jiang Xiaolin debuted in Europe, his image was much better than that of domestic players.

But limited by the overall environment of domestic football, I am afraid that few products and companies are willing to find Jiang Xiaolin as an endorsement.

With that money, it is better to find basketball and table tennis players with much more positive images. Why must you find football players?

Therefore, Baker, who didn't know the inside story, was fooled.

He only knew that China had a population of more than one billion, and he took it for granted that the Chinese market was huge.

After signing an agent contract with Jiang Xiaolin, he will definitely reap huge rewards in the future in the field of commercial endorsements and get a lot of endorsement fees.

So, after about two hours of negotiation in the hotel, Jiang Xiaolin and Baker formally signed a brokerage contract with a very low commission ratio, and Song Zhicheng officially resigned.

This kind of brokerage contract usually only appears in the contracts of famous stars when they change their agents or renew their contracts.

Jiang Xiaolin was able to get such a low commission ratio brokerage contract at the age of 16, which can only mean that Baker saw his potential very highly and was willing to sign a contract with Jiang Xiaolin even if it meant lowering the commission ratio.

After the conditions were agreed, Jiang Xiaolin immediately signed a brokerage contract with Baker.

In the future, Jiang Xiaolin's contract renewal, transfer, endorsement, commercial activities, etc. will be handled by Baker.Take over.

After signing the contract, Baker conveyed the information of Jiang Xiaolin's new agent to reporters from the Netherlands and China through Song Zhicheng that night.

In the future, if they want to make an appointment to interview Jiang Xiaolin, they can arrange it through Baker.

The next day, Monday, March 24, Jiang Xiaolin took Baker to the Alkmaar office building to meet with General Manager Anselm before training.

Hearing that Baker was Jiang Xiaolin's new agent, Anselm felt like being struck by lightning.

Because of Jiang Xiaolin's recent outstanding performance, Anselm is considering asking Jiang Xiaolin and Song Zhicheng to re-sign the contract and modify and increase Jiang Xiaolin's annual salary, bonus, liquidated damages and other amounts.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaolin actually broke up with Song Zhicheng and found a new agent, and it was Baker, Ballack's agent who was famous in Europe.

Anselm immediately felt that things were difficult.

In Baker's hands, Alkmaar will definitely not be able to take advantage of Jiang Xiaolin, and will definitely be severely slaughtered.

However, Anselm still couldn't say anything.

You can't just say "Jiang Xiaolin, I don't want you to change your agent because you and Song Zhicheng are easier to fool", right?

Anselm could only pinch his nose and admit the fact that Jiang Xiaolin changed his agent. Thinking of talking to Baker about Jiang Xiaolin's new contract in the future, Anselm had a headache.

...

Jiang Xiaolin naturally didn't care about Anselm's worries. After introducing Baker to Anselm, he returned to the training ground to start a new training.

After all the 30th round of the Eredivisie, Alkmaar, who won a big victory at home, surpassed Roda JC, who lost this round, and moved up one place to 8th.

The place for the UEFA Cup play-offs is more stable.

Therefore, the team's morale is high and the training atmosphere is very good. In addition, Jiang Xiaolin's full team cooperation attribute makes Van Gaal and others very happy with the training effect.

Especially Jiang Xiaolin, the progress since the winter break trial training is simply incredible to Van Gaal and others.
