Chapter 39: The Team
The love and attention of the people of the rotten country for football is well known to the world.
A wealthy club can't just change hands so quietly.
John, who reacted, got up and changed rooms, and asked first without waiting for Lin Ning on the other side of the phone to speak.
"Madam, can you tell me more about the club, if it's convenient?"
"It's nothing, it's just that last night Chu Lian sent someone to arrest Sasha, and my people retaliated and arrested 20 of those two families... Sasha was saved by my people, and their people are still in my hands... Manchester United is a condition for substitution, the Lin family agreed, and the Chu family is still hesitating. ”
The original intention of this phone call was to find John to give an idea, and in order not to affect John's judgment, Lin Ning, who was half-leaning on the head of the bed, explained the cause and effect of the matter in detail.
“。。。 ”
"Madam, the Chu family will not agree. ”
The phone was silent for a while, and John stroked his delicate mustache before he said in a deep voice.
"So sure, why?"
"Manchester United's market value is less than 4 billion pounds, even if the two share it, the Chu family can't afford it. ”
"It's less than 20 billion, is the Chu family so poor?"
The Chu family, who can sit on an equal footing with the Lin family, Lin Ning doesn't feel that he can't even take out this money.
After all, the Lin family and Chu Lian's industry in the corrupt country alone is almost 10 billion pounds.
"Our people have investigated the Lin Chu family in detail before. Unlike the Lin family, the Chu family is very pure and has no side hustles. You may not believe it, but some people in their family are still paying off their mortgages. ”
"I'll go, is it really so clean? I've seen Lin Chu and Lin Xiu, and those two people don't behave like you say. ”
"The Lin family has an old lady, but the Chu family doesn't. The Chu family has had the final say in Chu Hongzhang all these years, and it is difficult not to admire what this old gentleman has done. ”
"Admiration?
'In some ways, he's insistent. Over the years, the closest relatives he has personally sent in include his own sister and his youngest son. ”
Recalling the information from the embassy, John told the truth.
“。。。 ”
"Madame, if you can, forget it. ”
“。。。 ”
"If Madame really likes Manchester United, we can just buy it ourselves. ”
"That's a lot of money, are you sure we're going to have to pay for it ourselves? John, I really want it. ”
"Actually, I proposed to the old duke a long time ago to buy a football club, if Madame is not busy, why not listen to it?"
Lin Ning's meaning was obvious, but John frowned, as if he had thought of something, and said softly.
"Okay, let's hear it. ”
"In the name of Westling, we will pay a part, and let every family in Westling participate in the rest... Having a common club will also help to improve the cohesion of the Westling. ”
"Sounds good, why hasn't it been implemented?"
"Like the aristocratic lords, the old duke had little interest in football, preferring polo. ”
"What else?"
"The Premier League is very expensive, the transfer fee is very expensive, it is difficult for the club to make a profit... This investment is not guaranteed to the average family... It's hard to stick to it purely because of love... ”
"It's the same as not saying, the old duke is right. ”
Lin Ning pursed her lips, a big club just missed out like this, it was inevitable that she would be a little disappointed.
"No, Mrs. is different from the old duke, behind Mrs. is Huaguo, the world's largest ball market, and there are powerful families such as the Lin family, the Chu family, and the Ning family... As long as the operation is good, I believe they will be happy to help introduce some large enterprises to become our partners. ”
"What do you mean? The Lin family, the Chu family is not friends, they will be willing?"
"Why don't you want to? Spend other people's money, and no one will feel sorry. Say hello and change sponsorship, it shouldn't be difficult for them. ”
"Tell me, what am I going to do?"
John's words sounded quite like that, and Lin Ning, who was originally a little listless, hurriedly asked.
"Is Madam really so hostile to the Lin and Chu families?"
"Not really, you know, they've been holding me around. ”
"Madam, let the people go first. ”
"And then?"
"There is no hatred in front of interests, find a way to tie them to our chariot. There are many people in the Lin family, and there will be people who are on the side of interests. Madame, as long as we stand, time can kill everything. ”
"Chu Lian didn't give up so easily, and the two fathers of the Lin family were not as light as they seemed on the surface. ”
What John said is quite energetic, how can the hatred of the loss of a son be let go.
Lin Ning let out a sigh of relief, and regretted his previous impulsive willfulness more and more.
"The idiom of Huaguo is very interesting, it is difficult to sing alone, and it is difficult to support alone. Madam, as long as it works well, those two couples can't make any big waves. ”
"What do you mean?"
"People are selfish, and in the face of interests, family affection is sometimes just a piece of tissue paper that can be broken with a poke. ”
“。。。 ”
I don't know why, inexplicably I feel like my IQ is being crushed.
Lin Ning pursed her lips and glared at Lin Hong, who was holding back a smile on the side, angrily.
"Madame... ”
"It's up to you, and you're in charge. ”
"It's my pleasure. Madam, the dress is beautiful, and for a maximum of two hours, our people will send it to you along with the shoes. ”
"Thank you for your hard work, thank you for me. ”
"Of course. Madame, we are all looking forward to your amazing appearance at the ball. ”
"John, for the team, thank you. ”
"It seems that Madame really likes Manchester United. ”
"I love it. ”
"Trust me, it'll be yours sooner or later. ”
"Wait for your good news, goodbye. ”
。。。。
The Peninsula Hotel, The Peninsula Suites, Paris, France.
Lin Ning, who hung up the phone, was not in good spirits, and no matter how she looked at it, she didn't look like she was about to have a dream team.
"John is very good, Manchester United will be yours sooner or later, don't worry. ”
Looking at Lin Ning, who was sullen at the head of the bed, Lin Hong, who was on the side the whole time, said softly.
'It's not about Manchester United, I'm just not happy with myself.
"Not happy with yourself?"
"Selfish, impulsive, willful, stubborn, simple-minded, and happy, John should have a headache for me. ”
"Why do you say that all of a sudden?"
"I only recently figured it out, a lot of things, completely unnecessary, a lot of things, it's actually me who is wrong. ”
“。。。 ”
"I regret it, I should have come directly to the country of corruption, with John, I would have taken a lot of detours, and with John, I wouldn't have made a mess of everything. ”
"Don't be like that, people always have to go through something to grow, you're only 18 years old, and your life has just begun. ”
