In the conference room, Yu Sui and Zhao Feng sat across each other around a round table. Shi Luo, completely expressionless, half-sat half-squatted on the sofa.
The atmosphere was awkward and strange.
Yu Sui had changed into his personal clothes, a simple T-shirts and casual pants. It made him look not much bigger than Shi Luo. Zhao Feng looked Yu Sui's face that still seemed a little boyish and felt a sense of discordance. In the past two years, aside from growing his hair a bit longer, he still looked like a young boy. Was this person going to soon be a club owner?
Compared with Yu Sui and Shi Luo's casual attire, Zhao Feng's three-piece suit was a bit too formal. Zhao Feng himself seemed to feel awkward. He took off his suit jacket and smiled. "Some things aren't easily discussed over the phone so I thought it best to have a face to face discussion. But Whisper, the thing that you mentioned isn't easy to handle. To tell you the truth... "
"For this discussion..." Yu Sui interrupted Zhao Feng. He tiled his head and looked at Shi Luo. "the player does not need to be present."
"It's alright. Other clubs operate in the dark, but we at IAC like to be open and honest. We want to respect the players 'opinions. So, let's just talk like this." Zhao Feng smiled, insinuating that 'We won't go against the players' wishes and force them to go to another club.'
When Yu Sui heard this, he lowered his head and smiled. He didn't mind.
Shi Luo frowned and cursed.
Yu Sui looked at Shi Luo, and their two eyes met. But they quickly broke eye contact.
Yu Sui looked at Zhao Feng: "Alright, then let's talk."
"It's like this. After you contacted me, I immediately got in touch with management. Everyone agreed that-" Zhao Feng had a firm expression, his mouth full of lies, but his face remained unchanged, "we can't let Evil transfer to your team in the secondary league."
Zhao Feng said positively: "Even if we involve the league in this discussion, they will definitely support our opinion on this matter. Evil's performance has been sure and steady. Although he has the occasional minor disciplinary violations, he has never made major ones. There is no reason for such an outstanding player to suddenly be relegated to play in the secondary league. This would clearly be a loss for our division. "
"There is no need to worry about this," Yu Sui said without any hesitation. "After we buy Shi Luo's contract, he can still play for IAC. The real transfer process shall be carried out after we have passed the qualifier. If my team can't enter the league, he may choose to break the contract. He himself may choose to stay in IAC or go to another team. "
"Impossible."
"That's great!"
Shi Luo and Zhao Feng had opened their mouths at the same time. Yu Sui took a look at Shi Luo from out the corner of his eyes. For a moment, Shi Luo was a little embarrassed. He said, vexed, "What the hell is this? A pre-order? After purchase, you'll leave a deposit?"
"What kind of talk is that?!" This way they could keep Shi Luo for a while without having to spend any money. Zhao Feng was very satisfied with this freebie. He smiled and said, "Whisper is certainly very considerate. This way, Evil won't need to play in the secondary league. Alright, let's set aside this matter for now."
Zhao Feng looked at Yu Sui. "But, I think we're getting ahead of ourselves. Right now the situation is that our senior executives don't want to let him go. While I say that, our problem is that we respect our players' own opinions. To stay or to leave depends on Evil himself. However, he is currently indifferent regarding this matter. In this case ... I mean, everyone here's a businessman. So I say he should go to whoever can offer the higher price."
