Wu Qian didn't know why Rapo Erkan mentioned this matter, but it was estimated that he didn't have a good heart, if he wanted to rely on this matter to fight the nobility of the Celestial Empire, then he was mistaken, because he didn't feel any inferiority, maybe he started to become a nobleman from his generation.

Wu Qian smiled, and was just about to say that he would not participate, when he heard the phone ring.

After a brief telephone conversation, Wu Qian looked at Rapo Erkan strangely, and the phone call just now was from the organizer of the "Cleon Celebrity Ball", and launched a formal invitation to him, not to invite Wu Qian to become a dance partner of the celebrity, but to participate in the ball.

Wu Qian vaguely responded to this matter, whether to talk about it or not, there are many strange and coincidental places revealed in this matter.

"Rapo Elkan, did you do something to me behind your back?" Wu Qian asked with a smile.

According to David, in addition to inviting celebrities and their dance partners from prominent families, Wu Qian knew that he did not meet the other party's invitation standards at all, but coincidentally when Rapo Elkan mentioned this matter, the other party called to invite him, there must be a ghost.

Rapo Erkan is not a stupid person, he figured everything out in an instant, and said with a smile: "Wu, I recommended you to the organizers of the ball. What a shame they almost missed out on such a wonderful young man, and Ophelia, the prom organiser, would have thanked me, haha. ”

Wu Qian looked at Rapo Elkan a little speechlessly, if you want to say how bad the other party is, it is not necessarily, but this matter is a little crooked, Wu Qian wondered in his heart, how can he get back a city from Rapo Elkan, and suddenly, the whole stadium boiled.

Boom, boom!

The cheers of 70,000 or 80,000 people shook the sky, and the players of the two teams entered.

The red team is naturally the home Manchester United, and on the other side is the red and blue team of Barcelona, the people of the two teams walked to the field, each player also held a small pot friend, hand in hand, the scene was very harmonious and loving.

Wu Qian's position is very close to the court, and he can see it clearly without binoculars, and he is too lazy to take care of Rapo Elkan, so it is better to watch the game comfortably. Wu Qian said goodbye to a few people, walked to the "three" and sat down, still more comfortable here.

"James, why do players always bring children when they play in football games?" Wu Qian asked, this doubt was there when he watched the World Cup, but he didn't think about it before, because he wasn't very interested.

"Wu, this is the theme of 'friendship first' symbolizing sports competition. The caddie held hands with the football players to appear and line up, which was intended to express the concept of "purity" and "friendliness" of the football game, and promote the fair and just competitive spirit of football.

Since the World Cup in France, FIFA has stipulated that in order to make the concept of football deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, all international A-level football events and important football matches must bring ball boys into the venue, regardless of gender. ”

As the game was about to start, Manchester United EO Ed Woodward, who was accompanying the big boss, also said goodbye and walked towards the technical area under the stands.

Avram was chatting with two heirs of the Agnelli family, and he wasn't very interested in watching the game, only how much money the club could make him.

"Avram, Manchester United's stock has fallen so badly recently, and you still bid so high, I'm afraid it's hard to get rid of it. Rapo Elkando, who knew that Avram was actually interested in selling Manchester United back in 2017, was so exaggerated that several buyers backed down.

At first, it was a negotiation with a mysterious Celestial Empire buyer, and the talks collapsed. Immediately after talking with the big tyrants on the Arab side, it collapsed again. Recently, the UK's richest man was interested in buying it, but after hearing the offer, he gave it up.

Avram smiled arrogantly and said: "Manchester United is a cash cow, it has made a lot of money for me over the years, and it has grown a lot, and if you want to buy it, you naturally have to pay a certain price, right?"

The relationship between the Glazer family and Manchester United is not the same as that between the Agnelli family and Juventus, which can be said to have been the private property of the Agnelli family since its inception and has never changed hands, but Manchester United has changed hands several times.

When the Glazer family bought Manchester United in 2005, the total price was only 7.9 billion pounds, and the Glazer family took out more than 200 million pounds, and the rest was loans, and then Manchester United, which became a private club, was instantly in debt.

After more than a decade in business, Manchester United's commercial value has grown impressively, with the number of Manchester United's official partners reaching 68, a figure far higher than any other club.

The Glazer family almost only needs to pay the player's annual salary, and there is nothing else to spend money on, all of which are covered by various sponsors, such as training clothes, game clothes, nutrition, travel tools, etc., and even facial cleansers are provided by the company, almost realizing the sponsorship without dead ends.

But no matter how good the business is, it can't hide the decline of Manchester United in recent years, since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure, Manchester United has gradually entered a slump, the glory of the past is gone, only once in three years to enter the Champions League, and the only time was the group stage was eliminated.

The club's economy is supposed to be linked to results, however, Manchester United did not follow the vicious circle of Milan's double heroes, and even better than their own teams in terms of economic results.

The Glazer family is an overindulgent consumer of the fans' enthusiasm for the club, but if the results do not improve, the enthusiasm of the fans will always run out.

Like James May said, people love Manchester United, but they don't like the players, the coaches, the owners of the club......

It's not like the Glazers haven't thought about improving the situation, but it's too much money.

Every year, when the transaction window opens, and when players transfer, clubs want to buy good players, but in recent years, not only have there been no blockbuster transactions, but they have achieved the title of "price maniac", which really makes fans depressed.

Considering many factors, the Glazer family considered that it was time to leave, and it would take too much money to build Manchester United, which was not in line with the original intention of profit-seeking, and their family had squeezed out the value of Manchester United and continued to hold it, which violated the principle of investment.

Rapo Elkan glanced at Wu Qian, who was sitting not far away watching the game with relish, and whispered to Avram: "Avram, we all know the current situation of Manchester United, if you are really interested in selling, you can talk to him to see if he is interested." ”
