Shen Qinghe was a bit embarrassed by Thomas Essien's praise.
"Actually, it's mainly because we were so well-prepared. I really didn't expect Dortmund to be so sloppy."
"This is a contract worth over a hundred million yuan. If this were my dad's company, we would have confirmed everything countless times and considered every single aspect from top to bottom before ever bringing it to the negotiating table."
This was Shen Qinghe's first time negotiating with a football club, and it was a genuinely new experience for her.
"You were playing on a whole different level!" Wang Shuo praised her with a laugh.
Shen Qinghe's smile widened.
"A British author named Simon Cooper wrote a book called *Soccer Economics*. In it, he says that European clubs' transfer operations are extremely crude. For transfers of star players worth tens of millions of euros, they often do little to no preparation and just make decisions based on gut feelings."
