Chapter 39 Guarantee Contract
"dad?"
This shout was too difficult.
I was an orphan in my previous life. I had no idea of a father since I remembered. I have never seen my father until now, and I have never called this title. But he still shouted it out. Since he was regained his new life, when he accepted the memories of his predecessor, he also accepted everything that belonged to him, including family affection.
Zhang Yang’s feelings about his father are very complicated.
Before that car accident, he had a happy family, and his father cared about him very much, as if the whole world was surrounding him.
But later, my father found himself a "stepmother". It was just this title that made him feel uncomfortable. Later, my younger brother and sister were added, and my father's attention was also diverted, and he seemed to be the extra one in the family.
This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Yang chose to study in the UK.
Although the changes that have occurred in the past decade have complicated his family affection, what he can be sure of is that his father still cares about him.
"Yangyang, it's almost time for you to go to bed?"
"I'm just about to go to bed."
"Then you have to have a good rest. I'm afraid it will affect your sleep, so I woke up a little earlier. I'm only 8 am here. Have you been working smoothly recently?"
“It went smoothly.”
Zhang Yang hesitated for a while and said cheerfully.
"That's good! Last time you said you were working in the BBC, I checked it. It was a big TV station, very good, you must do it well. You have never suffered much since you were a child. I heard that British people are very old-fashioned and must have a good relationship with colleagues..." A set of caring words made Zhang Yang feel a sense of warmth.
"It doesn't matter if you encounter problems with your job. At worst, you can go back to China. It's easy to find a job."
Zhang Yang kept listening.
"By the way, I'll transfer you 100,000 yuan, you can take it first. You've just started working and can't make much money. If you don't have money when you talk about boyfriend and girlfriend, you're old enough. It's time to think about it. Last time I told your Uncle Zhang that Yangyang might bring a foreign girlfriend when he comes back."
Next, a hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone.
Zhang Yang murmured to deal with it a few words, and then he heard a woman's shout from the other end of the phone, as if he was asking his father to find clothes. After a few words, his father hurriedly put down the phone.
Zhang Yang's good mood was also destroyed.
That is the legendary "stepmother". Because she was ten years younger than her father, she gave birth to two children in a row, and her father followed her advice.
Zhang Yang put down the phone and lay on the bed to recall the things about his family in his memory. He looked at it from the perspective of the bystander and found that the whole family was actually very warm. Even the "stepmother" who had been resistant to his heart was not too bad to him. He would occasionally care about it. At the beginning, he took the initiative to get along with him, but he had been resistant to him.
From this point of view, my family is also good.
But no matter what, Zhang Yang knew that he could not go back, so he could not go back there according to his memory and then feel his father's love up close. That family would only become a "relative".
His future will belong to him.
———
The next morning, Zhang Yang became energetic. At seven o'clock, he had packed up his things and was ready to go out with his bag on his back.
Katherine walked down the stairs.
She was wearing loose pajamas and couldn't open her eyes. When she saw Zhang Yang's outfit, she immediately asked, "Are you getting up so early? Are you going out?"
Zhang Yang was squeezing his shoelaces. He looked up at Catherine, his expression became a little strange, and then nodded, "Just about to go out."
"What are you going to do? Didn't you say you didn't have a job?"
"So you have to go out and find a job." Zhang Yang said naturally.
"Looking for a job?" Catherine asked with interest, "Why have you become so motivated? I remember looking lifeless yesterday."
"That's relaxation! You don't understand the relaxation of a man!"
Catherine raised her eyebrows, "Just lazy! You might be worried that you won't be able to pay the rent next month? But it doesn't matter, I think you are pitiful, and you don't have the intention to drive you away yet. Even if you delay for one or two months, it doesn't matter."
Zhang Yang tied his shoelaces and stood up straight to look at Catherine. "When did you learn to sarcasm? Also, remind you a little." He pointed at Catherine's murderous mouth, "Your buttons are open, and you are not wearing underwear, two balls... Well, if I hadn't known you, I would have thought you were pulling me!"
After he said that, he immediately ran out of the room quickly.
Catherine was stunned for a moment, panickedly put her clothes on, pointed to the door she brought with her, "Hun!" Then she laughed herself.
———
It took Zhang Yang twenty minutes to arrive at Millwall.
Millwall Club is located in Millwall, the western end of Dog Island in the southeast of London, and is separated from the River Thames to the east of central London, about five kilometers from the famous Stamford Bridge Stadium.
Zhang Yang was not familiar with the surrounding area, so he got off the bus and walked a block before finding Millwall Club.
Standing in front of the door, looking at the lion sign on the team flag, he stretched his waist long, and suddenly felt that a "new life" was about to begin, and then he walked in without hesitation.
Ten minutes later, Zhang Yang walked into the chairman's office.
"You're here."
Gligory smiled and greeted him. There was a middle-aged man with a mustache in the room. "This is Camden, you can call him Ebenezer." He turned to introduce Zhang Yang, "He is the Arrogant I told you."
"Arrogant? A very interesting title." Ebenezer stood up and shook hands with Zhang Yang.
"I prefer others to call me Zhang, that's my Chinese name. Zhang Yang (Arrogant) is just an online name. In fact, I don't know why everyone says that."
Zhang Yang explained.
"Okay, Zhang." Ebenezer said, "but this pronunciation is very strange. I'm a little uncomfortable with calling it. If you say it wrong, please don't mind."
"Of course it's okay."
The two were greeting each other, and Gligery handed over with coffee, saying, "I knew you would come. This is the right choice. You are suitable for professional football, not to do civilian work."
"I told Ebenezer that you were back in the morning. Ebenezer didn't believe it. Obviously I won, maybe Millwall won."
Listen Zhang Yang.
After Gligory said that, he took out a contract and handed it to Zhang Yang, "You can take a look at this first."
"Work Agreement?" Zhang Yang glanced at it.
"This is Ebenezer's help to prepare, and he is an expert in this regard."
Gligori explained, and Ebenezer said, "This is the result of my negotiation with Gligori. If you are not satisfied with any clause, you can tell it and we can continue to discuss it."
Both of them looked at Zhang Yang after they said that.
Zhang Yang patiently looked at the documents in his hand. He was actually a little surprised. He didn't expect the other party to directly take out the work agreement.
Most of the contents of the agreement are the terms of the basic labor contract in the UK, and the most important parts are the few parts - salary, signing years, work content regulations and guarantee terms.
The first thing Zhang Yang saw was the work content regulations. What he said above was similar to what Gligori promised, but he only asked him to help guide the game and make some suggestions during the game. His position was marked as a "match instructor" rather than a general "assistant coach". The difference was still very big.
The assistant coach is a formal staff member of a club coaching staff and needs to be responsible for a lot of work; the 'match instructor' was probably thought of by Gligoli, and the title of the position also means that he is only responsible for the competition.
Next is salary and signing years.
The weekly salary indicated in the agreement is 1,500 pounds, and the signing period is three years. The weekly salary is actually not high, only exceeding that of ordinary white-collar workers in London. However, compared with job freedom, the salary level is absolutely acceptable.
Then there are the terms of guarantee.
This is what Zhang Yang values the most.
According to the British Labor Law, unauthorized layoffs are subject to legal liability. With the support of the "Labor Association", the compensation for layoffs for enterprises is also very strong, but generally speaking, it is only appropriate to compensate for several months of salary based on the years of work. For "foreign personnel" like Zhang Yang, the protection is very small.
Gligory promised to give him a guarantee contract.
The word "guarantee" is not casual. The terms of the guarantee contract are more beneficial to employees. Just like in the professional football circle, only a big-name head coach can get a guarantee contract, which means that you can get all the salary compensation during the contract period. For example, a signed one-year contract with an annual salary of 1 million pounds. Even if you only work for a few days, you can get a compensation of 1 million pounds.
This is the guarantee contract.
It is also a guarantee contract at present. Most of the subsequent additional instructions are related to the guarantee terms. If you look at them one by one, Zhang Yang was a little dazzled. He used his ability to "memory enhancement" to quickly finish the terms.
To sum up, “Unless the employee decides to leave, the club will compensate for all salary within the years.”
In more than ten minutes, Zhang Yang read all of them.
He sat on the sofa and exhaled a long sigh, looking at the surroundings with complicated eyes, "Mr. Gligory, I actually didn't think of signing the contract so soon, because that might determine the future, but now I really can't think of a reason to refuse."
Gligory smiled.
Chapter completed!
