Chapter 351: The Red Devil Changes Hands!
Some people may ask, since the Olympic Games are so lucrative, why did no one come forward to compete with George for this piece of fat before, so that the London Olympic Organizing Committee had to face the embarrassing situation of no one caring?
The reason is simple. Because there are not many consortiums or individuals in the UK who can afford to eat this project, and most of them have relatively conservative investment ideas, it is unlikely that they will invest tens of billions of pounds in a single project, even if the project does seem to be very profitable. Therefore, George, who has the ability and is willing to invest money, and is also his own person, has naturally become the best choice for the London Olympic Bidding Committee!
Since the Olympic Games are going to be held in London, the British government must be hoping to take this opportunity to promote the development of the domestic economy, and at the same time increase employment opportunities and per capita income - although economic globalization is an inevitable trend, it is not possible to let foreigners earn all their money in order to hold an Olympic Games, right?
Although there is no saying in Britain that fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, this does not prevent people from having a similar understanding of it!
George was thrilled to win the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, but instead of reeling in joy, he asked Ellie to call in the London Police Commissioner and ordered him to immediately strengthen the security of London's public facilities, especially the underground stations!
After so many years of traveling to this world, many things in his previous life have been gradually forgotten by George, but George, who has been fully prepared for this, finally remembered the subway bombing that happened on the second day of London's successful Olympic bid after consulting the information he recorded!
"It's better to prevent problems before they happen than to wait for something to happen and then find ways to make up for it. When the Chief of the Metropolitan Police was worried that he would get himself in trouble by publicizing people's discontent and protests, George's words directly left the other party speechless, "Could it be that in order to prevent the position of the Commissioner of Metropolitan Police from being impeached by your political enemies, you would rather ignore these possible dangers? Don't forget, if London does repeat the scene that happened in Madrid a year ago, you are definitely the first person responsible for this accident!" When the time comes, you don't need to be impeached, you yourself have to get out of this position!"
In this way, under George's reminder, London in this life was not attacked by a bomb from terrorists the day after the successful bid for the Olympics as in the previous life - several dangerous people were subdued by the London police on the spot as soon as they walked into the subway station, leaving them no chance to do anything!
Seeing this result, the various British media that had intended to accuse Scotland Yard of abusing its power resolutely tore up the manuscript, turned their guns and violently condemned terrorism, and praised the wise and powerful London Police Department in the most enthusiastic terms, believing that the London police's work attitude of protecting the lives and safety of the broad masses of the people should be duly appreciated!
The successful operation of the London police this time has greatly reversed people's stereotype and allowed them to gain more understanding and support in their future operations, instead of being accused of affecting the normal life of the public as soon as they do something. After all, no one wants to joke with their lives except for the Virgin and the trolls who want to criticize everything they see.
Now for the main business. While secretly helping London avoid a terrorist attack, Frank Ribery's transfer deal was finally completed - after a fierce battle, the deep-pocketed Chelsea managed to beat Manchester United, who were in turmoil due to the takeover turmoil, and bought the French Scarface for 22 million euros!
As a semi-regular of Tottenham's squad for the past two seasons and one of the top five players in the Premier League on the left winger, the €22 million transfer fee is too cheap for Ribery. You know, when Basturk transferred to Anfield before, Liverpool spent a similar price to get the Turk, whose performance was far less eye-catching than Ribery. In his previous life, when Ribery joined Bayern Munich from Marseille, he was also worth 25 million euros!
There is no way to sell Ribery to Stamford Bridge for such a bargain. Who made Marotta ill-conceived in Gerrard's transfer and put Chelsea in a ruthless way, almost turning the two clubs who had a good relationship against each other? Therefore, in order to compensate for the losses suffered by Chelsea and to repair the relationship between the two clubs, George had no choice but to sell Ribery to the Blues cheaply after Chelsea won the transfer battle.
This is the same reason as Real Madrid poached Ronaldo from Inter Milan and sold high-quality assets such as Cambiasso, Solari, Figo and Samuel to the Nerazzurri at low prices as compensation. Unless it is a mortal enemy who is not in the same place, the same level of football will basically not offend the other party to death when making a transfer transaction. Otherwise, who will choose to do business with you in the future?
Mourinho gave a warm welcome to Ribery's arrival. Although he led Chelsea to the Premier League and League Cup double last season, and reached the quarterfinals of the Champions Cup, the arrogant Portuguese madman naturally wanted to further enhance the team's strength and prove that his skills were no worse than George's with more trophies!
Duff is a capable winger, but Chelsea are the only Irishman who can be used in this position. Joe Cole, who is not stable enough and has a flashy style of play, does not meet Mourinho's requirements at all, and the sinking of Kezman and Mutu has made the madman repeatedly stretched thin in terms of employment!
Therefore, the arrival of Ribery has undoubtedly greatly strengthened Chelsea's wing strength, and also made it possible for Mourinho to expect the winger storm to come true!
With the versatile Ibrahimovic as the fulcrum up front, the likes of Franck Franck Franck Ribery, Duff, Frank Lampard and Essien weave around the Swedish Tower. In the new season, Chelsea's combat effectiveness has undoubtedly been raised to a new level!
Just when the media and fans are generally optimistic about Chelsea's journey in the new season, a bombshell news from Manchester shook the entire English football world, and people's eyes were taken away from Chelsea - the well-deserved hegemony of the Premier League, Manchester United, known as the Red Devils, announced an official change of ownership on July 15!
However, unlike in the previous life, this time it was not the Glazer family who tried to empty the white wolf that tried to empty the gloves of Manchester United, but the Qatar Investment Authority, which had just been established not long ago!
