Chapter 256 I'm Not Familiar With Him

Anyone who has had contact with Jorge Mendes will appreciate it.

Although Portuguese agents are very smart, they are not the kind of guy who is too smart and easily offended.

On the contrary, his shrewdness is that he is very sleek and knows how to coordinate all interests in his work, which makes him very happy in the football circle of the entire Iberian Peninsula.

In the past, he was limited by his own influence and the shadow of Jose Vega, which made him not satisfied in the football circle, especially outside the Portuguese football world.

But now, with his position and influence from Gao Han and Atletico Madrid, his career has developed rapidly, not only gaining a firm foothold in Spain, but also developing his business to South America and even establishing his own connections and channels in Eastern Europe.

As the company's scale expanded rapidly, Mendes' ability brought him great benefits.

Gao Han is also quite satisfied with his agent.

Mendes' rise was certainly his driving force behind it, but why didn't Gao Han get the benefits?

And now Mendes is vaguely managing Gao Han as the company's business card, which has also benefited Gao Han a lot.

So, Gao Han was very curious about Mendes calling this morning and saying there was good news to tell him.

"What good news? Say it quickly!" Paul Futrey looked more anxious than Gao Han.

I really didn't realize that this guy is quite gossipy.

Mendes pointed at Paul Fottery, shook his head helplessly, and looked at Gao Han again.

“Have you ever thought about changing a car?”

"Change a car?" Paul Futrey was stunned. What good news is this?

But Gao Han suddenly had a bright eye. The last time I asked me to grow a beard was to cooperate with Bolang's sponsorship. I asked me to change my car today...

"Is it..."

Mendes nodded with a smile, "In recent times, a car company has been in contact with me, and it is quite sincere."

“Which one?”

“Porsche.”

"Porsche?" Paul Futrey lost his voice.

This is a world-famous luxury car brand, specializing in the production of sports cars, one is expensive.

Could it be that they want to invite Gao Han to endorse their super sports car?

Thinking of this, the technical director was so depressed.

It’s true that people can die compared to others, and they can throw away goods compared to others.

I am driving a car, but I have to pay for it myself, but Gao Han is better. I drive a luxury car. I used to give away the BMW x5 for free from the club. Now it is Porsche actively sponsored. Not only does it cost no money, it can also earn sponsorship fees.

What kind of world is this?

Why didn’t I have such a benefit when I played football back then?

"Porsche's situation doesn't seem to be very good. Didn't it mean that he is already in debt?" Gao Han frowned.

He is also a person who cherishes his feathers very much. Although he does not object to commercial sponsorship, he does not want to sign a sponsorship himself. As a result, scandals such as sponsor bankruptcy occurred soon after.

"Indeed, Porsche has been in a bad situation in recent years, but because of this, they decided to break up with Dali and intend to launch a brand new luxury SUV that will be launched at the Geneva Motor Show this month."

Gao Han understood, "They want to invite me to be the spokesperson for this SUV?"

"Yes, they used to be sports cars, but suddenly they did SUVs, which gave people a very subversive feeling, and they mainly faced young people, so they think you are very consistent with their positioning of this model."

After hearing this, Gao Han couldn't help but smile, "I guess they still value the Chinese market?"

Mendes also smiled and nodded, not denying it.

The Chinese market has developed more and more rapidly in recent years, which is very attractive to luxury brands such as Porsche. As the most influential brand in the Chinese sports industry and the newly rising star in European football, Gao Han can be seen in their attraction.

"As far as I know, Porsche has high hopes for this model, and even carries all the hopes of this company's revival. Because of this, they will promote this model around the world, and they have chosen you as the global spokesperson for this model, which is also beneficial to us."

Working with big-name sponsors will not only obtain sponsorship fees, but also have a lot of potential commercial benefits.

For example, Gao Han, working with luxury brands like Porsche, has increased its commercial value itself. As Porsche promotes their models around the world, Gao Han's influence as the spokesperson naturally spreads.

The more Porsche attaches great importance to this model and the greater the promotion efforts, the more obvious the benefits to the high and cold.

So, after listening to Mendes' analysis, Gao Han nodded, thinking it was good.

"I have talked to people from Porsche several times. In addition to providing a new and high-end limited edition model with a free maximum configuration, worth about 200,000 euros, all maintenance and maintenance costs are all handled by Porsche during the contract period, and their annual sponsorship fee is also up to 3 million euros."

Three million euros per year, this is the sponsorship price code of Gao Han now.

Although if Mendes relaxes and the price falls, he will probably sign a few more transactions, but the smart Portuguese thinks it is unnecessary because maintaining a certain high price is itself a maintenance of the brand.

What's more, as Atletico Madrid's performance becomes more and more outstanding, Gao Han now has no shortage of sponsors.

Nowadays, three million is already a quote for some first-tier brands. If it is a second-tier brand, Mendes's quote is basically around five million euros.

There is no way, who made Gao Han popular now?

Paul Futrey, who was standing beside him, was shocked. He followed Gao Han all the way and witnessed Gao Han's commercial value being discovered bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit. He was impressed in his heart.

It can be said that this Portuguese compatriot's methods are many times more skillful than those in Atletico Madrid's commercial department.

With a sponsorship fee of 5 million euros, this can even catch up with European superstars.

However, from Mendes' tone, it seems that there are actually several sponsors on hand who are interested in Gao Han, but they are still in contact and negotiating with Mendes, and the Portuguese have quite high requirements for sponsors.

After Gao Han nodded in agreement with Porsche's sponsorship, the topic quickly changed.

"By the way, Jorge, I heard that the new Porto coach is Jose Vega's man, you have to be careful."

Paul Fottery had a close relationship with Porto. When Mendez wanted to enter Porto, he made a connection and made a bridge from it.

"Well, Jose Mourinho." Mendes nodded with a smile and looked at Gao Han again, "It's your old colleague in Barcelona."

Gao Han nodded. Of course, he was not unfamiliar with this person.

Jose Mourinho was Van Gaal's right-hand assistant back then. He was proficient in many languages ​​and was very awesome. He also had some unique features in football tactics, but he was very arrogant.

However, when Gao Han entered Barcelona, ​​although he was still in the first team, he was no longer favored by Van Gaal. It is said that because he was poached in 1999 and almost left Barcelona. Van Gaal was dissatisfied with his behavior, and he had sang against Van Gaal in public many times, angering the famous Dutch coach.

"I'm not familiar with him and have no contact with him." Gao Han shook his head and said.

When he was in Barcelona, ​​he was just an unknown intern, but Mourinho was the assistant coach of the core coaching staff. He was arrogant and did not take anyone seriously at all. How could he have contact with Gao Han?

"However, I know that Jose Vega was Mourinho's agent a few years ago. Jose Vega made an indelible contribution to staying in Barcelona after Robson left."

In those years, Jose Vega had a significant influence in Barcelona. It was just a piece of cake to recommend an assistant coach.

Of course, this kind of inside story can only be gossip. Except for the parties involved, who can know the details?

However, Jose Vega's head coach took over Porto, which was quite interesting.

But Mendes didn't seem to care about it at all.

"Don't worry, six of Porto's starting lineup are my players now. Dacosta was still in contact with me before and planned to introduce my players this summer. So, even if Jose Vega himself became Porto's head coach, I'm not afraid of him."

At the end, Mendes laughed and looked like he was sure to win.

Gao Han and Paul Futree looked at each other and smiled at each other.

Mendes is no longer the Mendes who came to Madrid at the first time. Now he is a famous figure in the football circle of the entire Iberian Peninsula.

Moreover, as an agent, as long as you master high-quality star resources, you don’t need to worry about who will be the head coach.

Even to some extent, even the club has to give in to three points.

Is the reason why Da Costa of Porto doesn’t like Jose Vega because the latter began to be proud after mastering the high-quality players in Portugal?

When Jose Vega was in high spirits, he was so proud that he had committed many people in the Portuguese football circle. Now he is a little declining and wants to regain it. This is probably not that easy.

Of course, if Mendes himself was trying to die, then there would be two things.

But no matter how you look at it, these shrewd and cunning Portuguese agents are not like the kind of idiot who can give them a chance to their phones.

However, as the topic started, Paul Futrey inadvertently revealed a secret.

It turned out that before Gao Han took over Atletico Madrid's first team, Jose Vega ran to Calderon Stadium and recommended Mourinho to Atletico Madrid's management.

Even later, after Gao Han took over the first team and successfully led the team to upgrade, Jose Vega came to operate several times, and used Gao Han's experience in Barcelona's internship many times to enhance Mourinho's weight.

However, at that time, the management always chose one of the two between Gao Han and Aragones, and had never considered the other candidates at all.

Looking back now, Paul Futree has to sigh at his wisdom at the beginning.

If Gao Han had not chosen Gao Han at that time, it would have been difficult for someone else to say that it was Mourinho, even the famous coach Aragonese would have been able to achieve Gao Han's achievements today.

But after hearing this, Gao Han couldn't help but feel even more disgusted with Jose Vega.
