Chapter 527: Superstar
Li Yonghong arranged for someone to send Zhang Yida various operating data and financial reports of AC Milan, while anxiously waiting for news.
Regardless of gray, white, or black, after all, he is also a big man, and he will not pin all his hopes on Zhang Yida.
Introduced by an international broker, he entered into a negotiation with American tycoon Rocco Comiso.
Comiso was born in Italy, immigrated to the United States at the age of 12, is a super-rich man worth three or four billion dollars, the founder of the fifth largest cable TV in the United States, and the owner of the New York Cosmos, a well-known American football club.
Lee wants Comiso to help repay the €390 million he borrowed from Temasina with interest, plus allow him to keep a personal stake of 30 million euros at the club.
But Mr. Comiso is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he has sternly rejected Mr. Lee's offer and allowed him to retain a maximum of 15 percent of the shares.
The negotiations broke up unhappily, and Li Yonghong set his sights on Zhang Yida again.
"400 million euros, plus 128 million euros in debt! This is the valuation that my private team has come up with after investigating AC Milan. ”
On the third day after receiving the information from Li Yonghong, Zhang Yida gave the other party a reply.
Li Yonghong was sad in his heart, what is the use of 400 million euros?
After repaying the Temasek loan, there is only €10 million left.
The pension is enough, but compared to the huge investment he has made in AC Milan, the loss figure is as high as four or five billion euros.
"Mr. Zhang, can you add more?"
Zhang Yida said with great regret, "I am very sorry, exceeding this number will increase our acquisition risk." ”
Li Yonghong saw that Zhang Yida's tone was firm, and he didn't dwell on his face, said a few words of thanks, and hung up the phone.
With less than a week to go until AC Milan is officially taken over by Temasek, he will lose all his money if he can't find the right buyer.
When he tried to contact the American tycoon Comiso again, the latter refused his request for a meeting.
Because the tycoon found a more suitable target - Florence.
Just when Li Yonghong was in a panic, Zhang Yida set foot on the land of Europe.
In a suburban villa in Madrid, Spain, he met Cristiano Ronaldo and his agent, Jorge Mendes.
Both are well-known figures, one is a top global football star and the other is a world-renowned football agent.
Some time ago, when Real Madrid had a conflict with Ronaldo because of contract renewal and salary issues, Zhang Yida arranged for someone to contact Mendes and Ronaldo.
Cristiano Ronaldo is 85 years old and 33 years old, which is the end of his professional life for a footballer.
No matter how much credit he gives to Real Madrid, football is a business after all.
Real Madrid is playing very well, and while Ronaldo is still in the godhead, he can sell it at a good price, and by the way, it can solve the problem of excessive salary, which is a good thing for the club's finances.
And Ronaldo is also disheartened by Real Madrid, a club that has been loyal to Real Madrid for 9 years and "preached" here.
When Messi evaded taxes, he received Barcelona's all-round care and defense, and when he was accused of tax fraud last year, Real Madrid only issued a statement and had no other support.
In addition, he felt that the fans had changed.
When he was not in a good state, the stands booed again and again, and shouted the name of "Messi", can he bear this step?
In fact, the main thing is the problem of money, his annual salary is 23.6 million euros, while Messi's is 46 million euros, and even Tevez's annual salary has reached 38 million euros.
And Real Madrid is only willing to give him a salary increase to a mere 30 million euros to renew his contract, and the renewal has been delayed and has not been implemented.
He didn't want to learn from Beckham, and when he was old, he had to make movies to support his family.
While you're still young, you can earn as much as you can.
After the news that he was leaving Real Madrid was released, giants from Qatar, China, and the United States threw olive branches to him.
There are local tyrant teams in the Chinese Super League that have thrown out the world's highest annual salary of "signing a contract for two years with an annual salary of 100 million euros".
But Ronaldo refused, in his words, and he didn't want to go to the non-mainstream league too early to retire.
Ronaldo has played for Manchester United in the English Premier League and Real Madrid in La Liga, while the level of Ligue 1 is a little worse, and the Bundesliga is basically dominated by Bayern.
Picking and choosing, he set his sights on Serie A.
Juventus wanted to poach him and communicated with Real Madrid many times.
Ronaldo is also very interested, after all, joining Juventus, he has the opportunity to play in the Champions League and compete for the sixth Ballon d'Or in his life, so that he will not be inferior to Messi in the number of awards.
But halfway through the road, a Yanhuang investment was killed!
After his agent told him the news, he scoffed a little, he didn't even own a football club yet, why should he let me join?
But Mendes is not a simple person, and it is not unreasonable for his career to be so big, and he is very good at controlling people's hearts.
He first analyzed Zhang Yida, the behind-the-scenes boss of Yanhuang Investment, to Ronaldo and told him that this is a billionaire.
Internet tycoons are never bad for money, and they are much more generous than engaging in industry!
In addition, it is also vaguely pointed out that Zhang Yida is about to enter AC Milan, which is a century-old club that has won the Champions League 7 times, second only to Real Madrid's 11 times.
Although there has been some decline in recent years, it is not an insult to him Ronaldo, a superstar.
If he can lead the down-and-out club to the top again, his career can come to a successful end.
At the same time, it also proves that he is capable of shining again no matter which league he goes to or what kind of team he goes to.
Ronaldo still trusts his agent very much, and it was this big man who operated his transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid 9 years ago, and since then he has started the second highlight of his life.
Agents and players are also a community of interests, and Mendes doesn't need to cheat him.
He decided to meet with Zhang Yida to determine his next career plan.
Zhang Yida smiled and shook hands with the two, "Mr. Mendes, Mr. Ronaldo, it's a great pleasure to meet you!"
Mendes looked at Zhang Yida, as if he saw a walking mountain of gold, and responded enthusiastically.
Ronaldo is curious about Zhang Yida's youth, although the information says that he is only 23 years old, but when he sees a real person, he always feels as if he is less than 20 years old.
Maybe Asians are younger!
"Mr. Zhang, the matter of AC Milan is almost settled, right?"
Mendes was concerned about this issue for the first time, because it was related to the follow-up cooperation between him and Zhang Yida.
If the team doesn't take it, it's nonsense to talk about everything else.
He doesn't know how Zhang Yida will take over, but according to his investigation, AC Milan's current owner, Li Yonghong, has financial problems and is looking for a buyer.
He has no doubts about Zhang Yida's financial resources, for fear that something will happen in this main link.
"Mr. Mendes, rest assured, within a week, the dust will be settled!"
Mendez's eyes smiled into a line, "That's good!Haha, if you need any help, Mr. Zhang just spoke." ”
Ronaldo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked: "Mr. Zhang, can you talk to me about the next plan for AC Milan?"
I've heard that UEFA has banned AC Milan from European competition for two years for violating the Financial Fair Play programme. ”
This is also the main concern of Ronaldo, he is already 33 years old, and he will be 35 years old in two years.
Despite his confidence in himself, he also felt a clear regression in his physical fitness.
Recently, I rarely go out to find new supermodel communication techniques, and I can't bear it.
