Rebirth

A show at Arsenal basically achieved Li Feng's previous psychology.One is to test Arsenal's reaction, but obviously, from those expressions, it can be seen that the opposition is still overwhelmingly difficult.

After visiting the training base, Li Feng and his party watched a training session for the under-18s. Li Feng and his party finally left.

"David, Keith, what do you think this genius and rich man from the United States is doing today?" Seeing Li Feng and his team slowly leave, Hill Wude looked tired and faced the two Assen beside him. Big Na asked.

One is the vice chairman of the team, and the other is the president and CEO of the holding company. Naturally, they are Arsenal's bosses.

"Peter, obviously, although this young man from the American Emperor looks like a pure fan, I can see that this young man is interested in the Premier League team. Perhaps he wants to choose among the London team. One to see if there is a possibility of acquisition.

Obviously, we Arsenal have entered his vision, perhaps, London will change the lively next."

"Yes. Obviously, the first choice for the young rich is Arsenal, then Chelsea, and finally other possible teams. After all, we are in London, which is the global financial center. For a rich man like St. John Lee In other words, this city has natural advantages." David Dunn also replied with a smile.

...

"Then you think, next, he will go to Chelsea and meet the old fox Bates." Old Wood said to himself again.

"That's for sure, and we have to be careful. If he really gets involved in Chelsea, with the financial support of this young rich man, Chelsea may really rise.

Although running a football team is more than just financial resources, we all understand that modern football is increasingly becoming a game of money.If it is really as he said, providing 1.2 billion US dollars of transfer funds, it can be directly built a championship team.

Moreover, we can also try to get in touch. One thing is true. We really need an advanced and scientific training center and a brand new top home stadium. Peter and Keith, what do you think?"David Dunn reminded with a smile.

"I'm afraid that Bates can't withstand other people's dollar offensive. Obviously, Bates has been investigated clearly.

We all know the situation of this Mr. Bates. If Mr. St. John Lee really spends money, we can be sure that this old fox, Bates, cannot withstand other people's dollars, and maybe our opponent in London will appear."Keith, the president of the team holding company, replied with a calm face.

"Well, I didn't expect this young man from the United States to have just set off a storm in the auto industry and disturbed Rolls Royce. Now he is tossing on the football field again. He is really young and energetic." Old Wood Can not help but generalize.

"Well, we just need to pay close attention to other people's movements, and pay attention to the following a little bit. After all, we don't want to sell shares ourselves, no one can control and persecute us." Keith Edelman immediately comforted the old friend of Old Wood.

"OK, then please pay more attention to our little friend from the United States." Old Wood once again ordered his left and right arms beside him.

"OK..."

"understand…"

...

"John, it seems that your first goal is unlikely to be achieved." In the car, Anschutz drank the red wine from Lafite Manor and smiled at Li Feng.

"This is also in my expectation. Most of the British teams today are in the hands of the old noble families. It is naturally difficult to acquire shares from these old, decadent old stubborn hands.

It seems that Arsenal is unlikely in a short period of time, but since they like tradition, I prefer to break the tradition and let the City of London rise to a new super team. It must be an interesting experiment."

"Do you really want to invest USD 1,200 million in transfer funds in the first year?" Anschutz replied with some confusion.

"Haha..., why not? What kind of team do you think can be built if so much money is invested?"

"Haha..., although today's players have skyrocketed in value, they really cost so much money. I don't know how strong the team is, but it can cause shocks in the European football circle. I'm sure of that."

"Haha... Philip, I like shocks. This time I intend to let these old stubborn Europeans see how powerful I am from the upstart of the American imperial family, and let them see the famous players of Fortune Football." Li Feng thought of his previous life Abu 'S past at Chelsea, could not help but replied with a smile.

I thought to myself, Mr. Abu, your experience in this life requires me to do it, so you can be the second of St. John Lee.Thinking of this, Li Feng felt a burst of pride.

"Well, I hope you can succeed."

"Definitely, I am full of confidence."

"Cheers!"

...

After returning to the hotel, Anschutz also opened a room in the hotel. He was about to stay with Li Feng in London for a while. He said that he could see if Li Feng could achieve his wish, and if he succeeded, he would also be interested in investing in the UK. So much.

Similarly, Li Feng also began to arrange people to start an all-round investigation of Chelsea. Similarly, there are survey reports on the general situation of the Premier League related teams and so on.After reading this investigation report, he poured cold water on Li Feng, who was still full of confidence a few days ago. Holding an investigation analysis report in his hand, Li Feng couldn't help but feel depressed, feeling a bit too sloppy.

Through understanding, Li Feng learned that Chelsea today actually has two major shareholders. In addition to the largest shareholder Bates, there is also a major shareholder named Harding, but the helicopter crashed and died last year.At the same time, the issue of ownership of Chelsea is quite complicated.

In particular, Bates has advanced a Chelsea Village real estate project, a tourism and leisure distribution center integrating stadiums, luxury hotels, bars, etc., with the stadium as the center. Unfortunately, although the Stamford Bridge stadium is located very close to the center of London.

But London is not the capital of China. There are too few people. The demographic dividend is actually very important. As a result, even if it is said to be in the'city center' near London-Stamford Bridge, it is surrounded by rare and few people, Chelsea Village The real estate project is a complete failure and a loss.

Chelsea Village Company and Chelsea Sports Company, the two companies cross over there, it is very troublesome.A lot of bad assets are in the accounts of sports companies, and Chelsea Village is a junk real estate project invested with bank money.

It can be said that the old fox Bates is a typical example of an empty gloved white wolf.From this, Li Feng couldn't help but think that it seems that the crows in the world are generally dark, and the real estate development projects of real estate companies are actually similar, mostly through bank loans.

Thinking of the many projects of the real estate company under his own name, weren't they all started by such means, Li Feng could only sigh in his heart.

...

At the same time, I also know that there are now 25 British teams are listed companies, and the stocks of Premier League teams are now sought after, resulting in not many people selling their shares.

However, it is also known from the survey that it is also because the team is listed, so that the noble lords who originally controlled the team know that the original team is still so valuable, and now the market value of the teams represented by Manchester United is quite high, such as Manchester United now With a market value of over 400 million pounds, it is naturally less pitiful compared to later generations, but in this era, Manchester United is known as the'world's largest football team'.

Similarly, many shareholders of the team are actually cashing out through the stock market, including Manchester United. For example, several major shareholders of Manchester United have chosen to cash out part of it every year.According to the analysis of the report, this era should be regarded as the traditional power of the Premier League is slowly weakening, and the prelude to the era of capital has slowly begun.

Li Feng held the report in his hand and couldn't help agreeing with what the report said. The years from the 1990s to the beginning of the 21st century were not just the transition of football into the capital era. At the same time, he also felt that it is really not a good idea to acquire a Premier League team. opportunity.

Through contact with Arsenal, it seems that both the timing and the resistance are too great now, and I can't help but mutter in my heart, do you want to give up temporarily and wait.

Anyway, there are opportunities in the future, but I feel a little unwilling to do so, which is really a contradiction.
