Chang Sheng was also shocked when he read the news in the newspaper that Getafe was in deep debt crisis.
Although he knows that Getafe is somewhat financially tight, for example, during the summer transfer period, he was required to raise funds by himself, which is something a club with abundant funds would never be able to do.
But he just thought that Getafe's finances were a little tight and they needed to live a tighter life. He never expected that they were already so nervous.
This is no longer "financial stress", this is an "economic crisis"!
Once such a big thing happens, it cannot be solved in a short while, and the team's performance will definitely be affected.
Chang Sheng was troubled by this... Why did he encounter such a thing when the situation was so good?
Chang Sheng has also learned a lot about the economic crisis of football clubs in the future. He also knows that Spanish football clubs, especially, have the most bankruptcies and reorganizations.
Many clubs are unable to make ends meet, and wage arrears are common.
For several years, almost every year before the start of the new season, you can hear about players from La Liga and La Liga teams uniting to go on strike, which may lead to the possibility that the new season of La Liga may not start normally.
When he heard the news at the time, as a fan, he was just worried and dissatisfied that he might not be able to see the games of giant teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid. He did not have a real intuitive understanding of the club's economic crisis.
After all, in faraway China, what does the Spanish club's economic crisis have to do with him? What does the players' inability to pay their wages have to do with him? What does the club's bankruptcy have to do with him?
But he didn't expect that when he was reborn into this world, he would actually encounter an economic crisis...
And it still affects his team!
His first reaction was - it's a lie, right? Is this fake? The media couldn't find anything to slander themselves and started slandering Getafe Club?
But Kate Gracie poured cold water on him first.
"Everything mentioned above should be true. The restructuring of Spanish football clubs was a big deal at the time. Many clubs were conquered and asked to make corrections within a time limit, changing from a membership system to a joint-stock system. I know all about this." Kate Gracie
Anyone who has never cared about football knows that it is indeed a big deal.
"I don't know what kind of businessman Francisco Flores is, but I don't think he is particularly rich. You said that his family is in the olive oil business and has an olive plantation? That's very rich.
Traditional businessmen are no longer traditional businessmen, and this kind of export-oriented businessmen are particularly affected. Exchange rate changes, policy changes, and even a maritime storm may cause damage to their business. When Getafe was restructured, Flore
Si bought most of the team's shares and became the team's chairman, and then he mortgaged Getafe to the bank to obtain more loans..."
Chang Sheng was stunned when he heard this: "Can you still do this?"
"What can't be done?" Kate Gracie thought Chang Sheng's question was strange. "This is a convenient and quick way to get cash. And there is no risk at all. Because almost all football clubs in the world are
Operating with debt..."
Since you want to become a winning agent and get involved in the sports world, you have to do the necessary homework. Kate Gracie has put in a lot of effort in this regard. Now when it comes to those things in the football world, he can also speak clearly.
.
"If you pay close attention to the financial statements of each club, you will find that they are in debt every year, even giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona. Even the larger the team, the greater the debt."
Chang Sheng knew this, but what he didn't expect was that Flores could cash out in this way...
"After Flores mortgaged the Getafe club, he obtained enough funds. According to the newspaper, he used the money to replace the debt he owed when he acquired the shares, and there was still a part left. That's it. The team's operating funds. This is also a normal practice, nothing surprising. The only problem is that Getafe's performance is too bad, the market is too small, and the development space is limited. It has not made much money for so many years. Lores had to throw money in himself. He couldn't even care about repaying the debt. He paid back a little bit every year, which wasn't even enough for interest. The debt became a snowball, getting bigger and bigger until the end was too big."
Kate Gracie is a professional in finance and knows better than Chang Sheng. Now that he has said so, Chang Sheng can’t believe it even if he doesn’t want to.

The next day, many reporters gathered at the Alfonso Pérez Stadium. They all came to verify this matter with the club.
The club's manager, Moskovsky, is so busy that his feet are barely touching the ground. In addition to receiving reporters who have already arrived, he also has to constantly answer the phone.
But he didn't look tired, but rather morbidly excited.
He was full of energy, shouted loudly, and directed the club staff. He showed the image of a calm and calm club manager in front of the media.
In sharp contrast to him is the club's president Francisco Flores.
He was sitting in the boss's chair in his office, and his whole body seemed to be sunk into the soft chair.
Chang Sheng sat on the sofa diagonally opposite him.
There are only two of them in this office.
Chang Sheng was called by the Chairman on the phone when he just arrived at the team's training base. He had a hunch that the Chairman calling him was not an ordinary thing, and it might be related to what the media reported yesterday.
So he handed over the training directly to Rudy Gonzalez and went to the chairman's office alone.
When he opened the door and saw Flores looking slumped, he already knew the answer.
I'm afraid what the media said is true.
Getafe encountered a big unimaginable crisis.
Seeing him come in, Flores didn't stand up to welcome him, let alone say anything. He just continued to sink in the chair, staring at the ceiling with his eyes blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing him like this, Chang Sheng didn't say a word.
"You are the head coach of the team, so I can't hide this from you, Chang." Flores, who was stuck in his chair, finally spoke after being silent for a while.
"Is what the newspaper said true?" Chang Sheng asked.
Flores did not answer Chang Sheng's question, but continued: "The bank called me this morning. They have a team that will come to the club and start checking the accounts. At the same time, they will freeze the funds of our club. Account. In other words...the club cannot pay your salary on time..."
This sentence was like a thunderbolt exploding directly in Chang Sheng's mind.
As of now, the debt crisis is still far away from him.
But when the boss said he would stop paying wages, he knew that the debt crisis had truly affected him.
Stopping salary means he will have no source of income.
Of course, it doesn't matter if only his salary is stopped. He still has a lot of money in the stock market. During this period, thanks to the operations of Kate Gracie and his team, Chang Sheng's assets have doubled several times.
.
At worst, if you withdraw some money, you will still be able to live.
But if the players' salaries are suspended, Chang Sheng's life will be at stake...
No matter how many dreams professional players have, they must prioritize practical issues.
If you can't even afford food, what dreams are there?
Even if they win often, they cannot be asked to work hard for a great goal.
The first purpose of players playing football is to make money and support their families.
Stopping salary means destroying their jobs.
And then they were asked to work hard for an upgrade. Chang Sheng felt that this was just nonsense.
It can be said that once the bank really freezes the club's capital account and the club has no money to pay salaries, its own upgrade project may be poured with a bucket of ice water...
Wage arrears are serious in Spanish football and happen from time to time. Chang Sheng knows that there have been several cases. Some are due to one or two clubs. Some are due to dozens of clubs.
Chang Sheng really didn’t expect that now it would be his team’s turn.
He suddenly felt very tired. He wanted to lead a team to fulfill his dream and pursue the ideal road, but it was so difficult...
At first, no team was willing to hire him, but eventually Getafe was able to accommodate him. Then he had to battle wits and courage with the young talents of the youth team. After the youth team was promoted to the first team, he still had to fight, and he had to fight with those who were not good enough.
They have to fight with the obedient main players, the club general manager, and the media who are watching eagerly.
Of course, fighting with others is a lot of fun.
But now the problems he encountered were no longer as simple as fighting with others.
The club's debt crisis is really beyond Chang Sheng's ability. Even if he has a Wall Street financial expert, he can't handle Getafe's affairs. Although he has a little money now, he doesn't know the details of Getafe.
How much money he owed, but he felt that his little money was definitely nothing compared to it, and he was not a free agent, so why would he invest his own money in the club? Unless the club was his own
Yes, then he is obliged to...
He fights with so many people and doesn't hesitate to break his face. Why? It's not to lead the team to upgrade and regard Getafe as his foundation.
The great situation that he worked so hard to manage is now about to be destroyed because of this problem that he cannot solve at all.
To be honest, Chang Sheng was a little disheartened.
This is rare.
Since he was reborn, he has never shown that he is discouraged. Even when he only had two dollars in his pocket and could not find a job, he had never been so depressed.
But now, there are some things that he cannot decide alone.
Flores also noticed Chang Sheng's depressed mood.
In fact, he was helpless because there was really no other way. In fact, he already knew that he could not repay the debt, but as long as the bank knew the truth, he could still delay. During this period, he could do many things, such as renewing his relationship with Chang Sheng.
About. But now that this matter has been exposed in advance, the bank knows the truth, and they are very angry. In order to prevent the Getafe Club assets they own from being lost, they must freeze the capital account.
After this incident was exposed, everything was over.
He will step down sadly after his debts expire, and the team will also be greatly affected by salary arrears. Let alone promotion by then, it will be good to avoid relegation.
His only wish now is to get the club to renew Chang Sheng's contract. Otherwise, why would he be so eager to get Mosco to renew Chang Sheng's contract? He has fully realized Chang Sheng's ability. A club is divided into management and management.
There are two departments of competition. It is a rare talent to win in competition.
So if he can retain a winning streak, even if Getafe does not belong to him in the future, then the future of this team will not be too bad.
But as the economic crisis came to light, this matter could no longer proceed.
It would be fine if it was just financial constraints. The club is divided into two departments: commercial and competitive. Generally, matters on the commercial side will not affect the competitive department. But as long as there is salary arrears, it is different. If players are not paid, how can they expect it?
Do the players work hard for the team?
※※※
Chang Sheng no longer knows how he walked out of the chairman's office, and he doesn't remember what the chairman said to him in the end.
There is only one thing on his mind right now - Getafe is already like this. Where should he go?
Can he still lead the team to the first division successfully? How far can he go in the Copa del Rey?
If he asks his players to fight hard, and the players ask themselves: "Coach, the club doesn't give us any money, what do you want us to fight for?", how should he answer and face it?
For dreams? For ideals?
Is that food edible?
He knows that many players actually have no concept of financial management. They spend whatever they earn and have very little savings. Now that the club does not pay wages, these people cannot be blamed. That is not an exaggeration.
Even the emperor doesn't have enough soldiers, let alone his head coach?
While he was feeling depressed and thinking wildly, a harsh voice sounded in his ears.
"Chang, I know no one wants this to happen, but it seems that the contract renewal negotiations between us cannot proceed for the time being..."
He raised his head and saw Moscodo's face, which he couldn't tell whether he was smiling or crying.
The other party spread his hands, shrugged and shook his head: "Look, I don't even know if I can continue to stay in this club after April..."
"Your tone sounds a little excited, Mr. Moscodo." When Chang Sheng saw this annoying manager, the previous depressed mood disappeared for some reason, and instead he was full of fighting spirit - he must not do this in this situation.
The damn guy showed no fighting spirit in front of me! So he said coldly.
Moscow was stunned for a moment, then waved and shook his head: "You are really good at joking, Chang. The club is in such a big trouble. How can I be excited? I don't even have time to cry! You see, I am very busy today...
...No more, I still have something to do, I’m leaving first..."
After saying that, he walked past Chang Sheng and left in a hurry.
Chang Sheng turned around and looked at Moscodo's back.
The relationship between the two of them was not good. When they met in the club, they would never speak to each other, say hello, or greet each other unless necessary. This kind of thing would never happen to the two of them.
But today, Moscodo took the initiative to chat with him, uncharacteristically, and even said several words.
Abnormal...
For some reason, he just felt that the club was in a debt crisis, but the general manager seemed very excited, as if he was looking forward to this happening...
He frowned and withdrew his gaze. Moscodo had disappeared at the other end of the corridor.
He decided not to think about this bitch in Moscow for the time being, but to think about his situation and what to do in the future.
This is the real thing.

ps. Although there are still a few votes left, I really can’t wait any longer, so I’ll release the additional updates first.
Look, there are fewer and fewer authors like me who care about readers and want to update more!
So everyone needs to vote!
In addition, historically, during the same period, Getafe Club did experience an economic crisis, and Flores, who had been in charge of the club for nine years, stepped down because of this.
This is all true...)
