Chapter 1083: The King of Telecommunications!

Chelsea didn't play today, and the squad trained at Stamford Bridge.

But even if there is a competition, it will not be able to do well.

When Xia Yu and Elton Collin arrived at Chelsea Football Club, Elton Collin ordered someone to inform the team's head coach, John Neal.

John Neal, who was coaching the players in training, was notified and immediately ordered the players to train freely, and then hurried back to the club's office building.

John Neill was surprised when he saw Xia Yu standing next to Elton Colin, but he didn't have time to think about it, and walked quickly towards Xia Yu and Elton Colin.

"Hello, Mr. Elton Colin!"

'Hello sir, I'm John Neil, the head coach of the Chelsea first team. ”

"Coach Neil, nice to meet you!"

Xia Yu said with a smile, and took the initiative to extend his hand to John Neil as he spoke.

John Neill immediately shook hands with Xia Yu and said hello.

At this time, Elton Collin introduced Xia Yu to John Neal: "Coach Neil, this is the director of our Bright Foundation, Mr. Xia Yu, the acquisition of Chelsea is his order, from today, he will be the chairman of Chelsea Football Club!"

What Elton Colin said was exactly what Xia Yu told him on the way here.

His external identity is that of a director of the Bright Fund, not the chairman or boss.

The reason why he suddenly decided to become the president of Chelsea Football Club was also due to a number of considerations, in short, the advantages far outweighed the disadvantages.

Knowing that Xia Yu's real identity is the president of the club, John Neal was more respectful and greeted Xia Yu again.

"Are Coach Neil, the players and the management team here?"

'Yes, training at Stamford Bridge. ”

"Gather them all here, and I'll meet with them. ”

"Is there a conference room here?"

"Yes, I'll take you there. ”

......

Although the players and the management team were surprised by Xia Yu's age and skin color, they were all very interesting, after all, Xia Yu was the president of their club.

Although most of the players in the team will be replaced, including the managerial team, Xia Yu did not tell them, just let them continue to do business for the time being, and he is now mainly solving the legacy problems of Chelsea Football Club.

There is no way, now that Chelsea have fallen into the relegation zone, and if they continue to be in turmoil and their results will become worse, even if Alex Ferguson is brought in later, they may not be able to fill this hole.

Now it's still about stability.

After stabilizing the morale of the army, Xia Yu informed everyone that a press conference would be held in the afternoon to let John Neill set up a large enough venue.

After that, Xia Yu returned to the company.

And Elton Colin urgently went to the Mirror Group, according to Xia Yu's order, the afternoon press conference must not be chaotic, and public opinion in the next few days must be controlled.

Not long after Xia Yu sat down, George Berkeley came to report to him again.

It turned out to be the equity transfer of the Xiangjiang Branch of Dadong Telecom.

The parent company, Dadong Telecom, transferred 35.7% of the 45.7% equity held by it at a price of HK$132 million, of which 35.7% was retained, and it retained 10% of it as a link for business cooperation.

Xia Yu's Jiuding Industrial Group in Xiangjiang will hold 67% of the equity of the Xiangjiang branch of Dadong Telecom Company, and has an absolute controlling stake.

As a result, Xia Yu, the only two communication companies in Xiangjiang, has completed absolute control in the actual sense.

As long as the Hong Kong government does not issue additional telecommunications operation licenses in the future, then he is the king of Heung Kong Telecom!

......

In a blink of an eye, it was four o'clock in Xia Yu.

The hall of Chelsea Football Club, the scene of a makeshift press conference.

As Xia Yu came out of the curtain and strode up to the speaker's seat, the scene began to be restless, and the flash lights kept on.

'Hi everyone, I'm Elton Collin, the manager of the Bright Fund buyout of Chelsea Football Club, and welcome to this press conference. ”

"First of all, I would like to introduce to you my next to the Director of our company, Mr Hart Woo Ha, who was knighted by Her Majesty the Queen some time ago, and who will be President of Chelsea Football Club from today. ”

As soon as Elton Collin's voice fell, Xia Yu's gentle voice spread through the microphone: "Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon, I am Xia Yu." ”

'Welcome to the Chelsea Football Club press conference!'

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Elton Colin and John Neill led the applause, as did the reporters in the audience.

"Dear Sir Xia, why did you choose to buy Chelsea Football Club?"

Seeing that a reporter couldn't wait to stand up and ask a question, Xia Yu smiled and said: "Because Chelsea has a good tradition, its potential is limitless, although the results are not stable now, but that's just because I haven't come yet." ”

The unhurried tone said domineering words, which made the eyes of the reporters in the audience light up, and the assistant in charge of recording quickly recorded it.

"Next!"

"Dear Sir Xia, can you tell me the details of the acquisition?"

"Of course. ”

"Our company bought Chelsea Football Club for £1 and took on the company's corresponding debts. In addition to this, we acquired Stamford Bridge Asset Management for £2.2 million......"

......

"Dear Sir Xia, what are your plans for Chelsea Football Club?"

"We will pay off all the debts of the club and Stamford Bridge Asset Company in advance to unload the burden for the club. Stamford Bridge Assets will then be integrated into the club, and the club will no longer have to worry about the lease period. ”

"In addition, we are ready to make the first phase of capital injection into the club, which is worth £10 million, mainly for the renovation of the stadium, the operation of the transfer market and the improvement of staff treatment. ”

"Stamford Bridge has been rebuilt for four years and has had a serious impact on the team's game and the enjoyment of the fans, so we are ready to complete the redesign before 1983!"

"Dear Sir Xia......"

......

Most of the reporters present were from various newspapers under the Mirror Group, and they were prompted before they came, so the order of the whole press conference was maintained very well, and there were no sharp problems.

Between the Q&A, all the important information was publicly explained clearly, and it was full of explosions.

The press conference lasted nearly 40 minutes and ended successfully.

The reporters, who had been impatient, immediately rushed to their respective newspapers.

The first to benefit were of course some evening newspapers, which were delivered to various newsstands at the same time as they were rushed to the revision.

As the off-duty crowd bought newspapers, details about Chelsea Football Club began to spread, with the biggest reaction coming from Chelsea fans.

Although the new president of the club is a Chinese, and the racial issue makes some proud Britons very unhappy, but fortunately, Xia Yu still wears the title of "new knight" on his head, and this aura cancels out most of his prejudices.

Of course, what excites the fans the most is that they see the hope of Chelsea's rise from the Bright Fund's generosity.

Stamford Bridge is entirely Chelsea's, and with the debt paid, the new owner has paid Chelsea £17 million when he arrives, which is a huge amount.

Even if the £7 million in debt payments is removed, the remaining £10 million would have to cover the cost of renovations, but at least £7 million would remain.

The £7 million would be a big deal to invest in the transfer market, given that Liverpool's current top scorer Ian Rush only paid £300,000 when he was signed by Liverpool last year, and the price was a record for a player under the age of 20 in the UK.

Now the transfer price of top stars is only five or six hundred thousand pounds, and seven million pounds is definitely enough for Chelsea to build a luxury camp!

Here is hope for Chelsea's rise!

The next morning, with the launch of the major daily newspapers, Chelsea news was not limited to London, not only to England, but also to Scotland, Ireland and Wales.

Different from the surprise of the fans and the excitement of the melon-eating masses, the mood of the various clubs in English football with the most direct competition is the most complicated, some are like big enemies, for fear that their star will be targeted, of course, more envy, jealousy and hatred, in private sarcastic Chelsea is a nouveau riche, losing London's face.

But Chelsea fans don't care about that, as long as Chelsea have hope of rising.

Amid this boiling heat, Elton Collin approached Alex Ferguson and offered him an offer to move to Chelsea as head coach.

There is no doubt that Aberdeen, although one of Scotland's major cities, is certainly not comparable to London, and the intensity of competition in English football is now higher than that of Scottish football.

Alex Ferguson has been in Scotland since he was a player and has had a certain appeal to him in English football.

Not to mention, Chelsea Football Club has now changed dramatically and has the foundation to become a giant.

And this is also the beneficial influence of Xia Yu's high-profile operation of Chelsea.

In the previous life, Barcelona and Real Madrid have set the best example for Xia Yu, and in Xia Yu's plan, Chelsea will also take this road of giants and make Chelsea the holy land of world football......

Finally, after constant and sincere persuasion from Elton Colin, Alex Ferguson decided to make a request to meet the president of Chelsea Football Club.

Elton Colin decisively agreed, and after contacting Xia Yu, considering that the Aberdeen team still has games in the near future, Alex Ferguson, the head coach, could not stay away, so Xia Yu set the meeting place in Glasgow, Scotland.

Xia Yu, who had just returned from the city of Glasgow, had to board the plane to Scotland again.

And the meeting place, Xia Yu set the home he had just bought - Block Castle.

......

Alex Ferguson, who was in the prime of life, was in good spirits, but he did not wear glasses at this time, and he did not have the temperament of a scholar as he did in later generations.

"Mr. Ferguson, welcome!"

"Sir Xia, it's an honor to receive your invitation!"

"You may be seated!"

"What do you want?"

"A cup of black coffee, thank you!"

"Okay, wait a minute!"

After a brief pleasantries, the distance between the two narrowed a bit, and Alex Ferguson relaxed a little.

Xia Yu didn't waste too much time, and said to him straight to the point: "Coach Ferguson, Elton Colin should have told you something, you know, he first recommended Bob Paisley, Brian Clough and Tony Barton to me, I am not boasting, except for the retiring Bob Paisley, the other two coaches I am sure to invite them to Chelsea." ”

"But I didn't!"

'I think you're the manager Chelsea need the most, you're no worse than any of them!'

Suddenly hearing Xia Yu's high evaluation, Alex Fergusonton felt flattered.

Although he has always been confident, he also knows where he falls apart from these three England legends.

He didn't doubt Xia Yu's strength either, because he used yesterday's limited time to inquire about the strength of the Bright Fund, and yesterday, he was shocked!

So Xia Yu attaches so much importance to him, and it has also made his mentality change a lot.

"Sir Xia, thank you for recognizing me. ”

'I want to ask, if I were Chelsea, how much support would you be able to give me?'

After asking, Alex Ferguson stared at Xia Yu tightly.

Alex Ferguson was so direct, which also gave Xia Yu a greater grasp in his heart.

He looked directly at Alex Ferguson and said solemnly: "Coach Ferguson, we Chinese have an old saying, called 'no suspicion in employing people, no need to suspect people'!"

"If you become the head coach of Chelsea, I will give you the greatest authority in the whole of English football!"

"In addition to the management of the team, I will also give you all the transfer rights!"

"You don't need to think about the funding, you don't need to worry about the commercial operation of the team, and I don't care if the club is profitable!"

"You can buy any star you want, even if the transfer price of the top 11 in the entire football world is created by you!"

Alex Ferguson's heart was shocked, and he looked at Xia Yu in a daze, and his feelings of emotion kept surging in his heart.

On the field, the number of a football team is eleven people, Xia Yu's analogy is to tell him.

As long as he wants, he can build a team with the first person in global football in every position!

This level of support is unprecedented!

This kind of trust, it is impossible for him not to be moved!

Xia Yu looked at Alex Ferguson quietly, waiting for him to calm down.

Seeing him come back to his senses, Xia Yu smiled and asked: "Coach Ferguson, I hope you can personally build Chelsea into a blue army that resounded all over the world, until the end of your coaching career at Chelsea." ”

"Would you like to?"

Alex Ferguson took a deep breath and nodded heavily: "Sir Xia, thank you for your value and trust in me, I am willing!"

Xia Yu smiled, got up and stretched out his hand to Alex Ferguson: "Coach Ferguson, welcome to join!"

Alex Ferguson stretched out his hand and held it tightly with Xia Yu.

After sitting down again.

The distance between the two has narrowed a lot.

Xia Yu said with a smile: "Coach Ferguson, I haven't talked about your treatment just now, I don't know about the salary system of British football, but I can promise that your salary will be the highest in the UK." ”

Alex Ferguson smiled even more and respectfully thanked him: "Thank you!"

Xia Yu continued: "Coach Ferguson, I hope that you can clarify the situation with the chairman of Aberdeen Club as soon as you go back, so that he can find a coach to take over as soon as possible. ”

'It's almost the winter transfer window, so you can get the players you need right now, the whole Chelsea team, whatever you want to do. ”

"I don't have a lot of requirements this season, I only have two requirements, one is to run in the team, and the other is to get out of the relegation zone. ”

"Of course, if you accidentally get relegated, then you can't help it, and you will be promoted again next season. ”

In the last sentence, Xia Yu said with a smile, and his mind was very peaceful.

But Alex Ferguson assured with a serious expression: "Sir Xia, please rest assured, Chelsea will definitely not be relegated!"

He still has this confidence, if with the support of Xia Yu's unlimited transfer rights, Chelsea will still be relegated, and he will not have the face to be a football coach again!

"I see how you behave!"

......

After getting rid of the old lord, Xia Yu returned to London with a happy mood.

On his return, he also added Elton Colin the position of Finance Manager at Chelsea Football Club and explained his support for Alex Ferguson.

After everything was in order, Xia Yu took a break and went to France in a low-key manner.

The events that kept delaying his trip to France were about to enter December, and it was time to pass!

PS: The second update is sent, today it is 7700 words, July is over, don't waste it if you have a ticket!
