Chapter 698: David Dunn Who Didn't Disappoint

The United States is one of the countries at the highest end of the international division of labor in the globalized economy, and the current world economic system is based on the US dollar as the global reserve currency.

In addition, the current world economic crisis is based on the United States, the United States subprime mortgage lenders have gone bankrupt, investment funds have been forced to close, the stock market has fluctuated violently, causing financial turmoil, and because the world financial system lacks some transparent and effective market management, the world's major financial markets have experienced a crisis of insufficient liquidity, which has swept the entire European Union and the world's major financial markets, and Britain, as an important member of the European Union, cannot avoid the harm.

As a country dominated by the financial industry and service industry, the British economy is smaller than that of the United States, but the financial industry accounts for a larger proportion of the national economy.

"We have held a video conference with the headquarters to discuss, because of the precedent of the United States, there is no suspense about the future policy path of the British government, but whether it is to increase fiscal spending or increase the money supply, in essence, we are exchanging the burden of the future for the current economic stability, and our plan can successfully achieve the expected goals. ”

William didn't stop his report, but because of the presence of other people, he still mentioned some important things in his words, and he knew that the boss understood what he was saying.

"Huh. Andy had a calm and confident smile on his face, but in David Dunn's eyes, he could sense a sense of mockery, well, maybe he was a little too sensitive as an Englishman.

"Under the pressure of the financial crisis, the Bank of England has no choice!" Andy said in a cold voice, glancing at David Dunn, who was sipping coffee and looking like he was wandering in the world, turned his head to look at William and said: "According to the plan, you did a perfect job this time, it seems that my team acquisition funds have been settled, and when it is over, I will celebrate with you." ”

William's face showed irrepressible joy, and he nodded slightly excitedly and said, "Thank you, boss, we won't let you down." ”

You must know that his young big boss, it can really be said to be quite generous, everyone envies the participants of the two hunting operations in the United States and the foot basin before, Andy promised early on that the more he earns, the more bonuses he will get, and every time the funds are settled, they will immediately cash in at the celebration reception, this time it is finally their turn to be in the limelight in the London group, and of course, the pound!

Andy smiled with satisfaction on his face and nodded, William got up to say goodbye, with a happy smile on his face, and walked back briskly, he was already a little eager to tell the members the news.

For this group of Jingying who have been cultivated and can continue to bring him wealth, Andy will naturally not be stingy, rather than paying taxes to the government, it is better to use it to buy people's hearts, this kind of behavior is the norm on Wall Street, but at present, the entire Wall Street is the group of people who follow him Andy Smith and make a lot of money one by one, and the group of young people from Liberty City Investment Company have changed into sports cars, which makes other Wall Street colleagues who are unemployed and layoffs envious.

"David, how's your progress going?" Andy still had a smile on his face, and after taking a sip of coffee, he asked David Dunn, who also put down his coffee cup with a good attitude.

"There are no other obstacles, the point is that there is a huge divergence in the purchase price, we are offering a price of £210 million based on the current market value, and Levy is biting on the price of £250 million. Negotiations have reached an impasse for the time being. David Dunn replied with a serious expression.

"Well, this Levy is really interesting, and before we contacted him, he was looking for a foreign investor to buy Tottenham. The British media even said that the reason why he always wanted Martin Juul to step down was also because he wanted to sell Tottenham. We offered this price, which was already a satisfactory price for many parties, and he was not satisfied. The corners of Andy's mouth couldn't help but show a sneer.

"The main thing is that he is very dissatisfied with our previous 12% stake in the hands of former Tottenham chairman Alan Suga, and the doubts and dissatisfaction of fans reported in some media recently are also some small actions behind his back, but these are not to worry. David Dunn explained.

"Huh. Andy smiled happily, looking at David Dunn with admiration in his eyes, to be honest, he felt that the most correct thing he did was to let David Dunn, a big man who has an important position in European football and traveled to British football, be his spokesperson, which is extremely wise.

"Speaking of which, I'm incredibly glad you accepted my offer to be the head of this Tottenham takeover, and it's nothing short of amazing. ”

David Dunn also had a modest smile on his face when he heard the young boss's undisguised compliment, but he also deserved it.

When he returned to London with some of the funds from the negotiation team, he did not choose to make a takeover offer directly, but first visited former Tottenham chairman Alan Suga.

As a long-time rival, Alan Suga was a little surprised by David Dunn's visit, but when he learned that David was buying Tottenham Hotspur on behalf of Andy Smith, a young American billionaire, the first thing he asked was, "Will you become the general manager of Tottenham?"

After receiving an affirmative answer from David Dunn, the old Tottenham loyalist retained five per cent of the shares, selling the other 12 per cent to Andy for £25 million.

Not only that, but he also relied on the influence of funds to help David find another major controlling person who holds 9% of the shares, Hajinuaru, and several smaller shareholders, so that Andy has 26% of the shares in his hands at once.

When Andy got the phone report, he felt a little confused, didn't he clamore for 400 million pounds to sell? It's only been two days since he arrived in London, and he has just got 26 percent of the shares so easily? It's just too fast, and if you want to hire people, you have to use the most awesome one.

Even more confused than Andy was the club manager Levy, who was bent on making a big profit by selling the team, who held 6 percent of the shares and represented Joe Lewis 66 percent of the shares, and when David Dunn, a former nemesis and a great figure in English football, sat down at the negotiating table with a share book, Levy knew that he needed to bite a wolf who was more ferocious than him.

As for the previous 400 million pounds offered by the lion, it was directly ignored by Levy, he dared to ask for this price, and David, who had a calm expression on the other side, dared to mock him, as the helmsman of the former sworn enemy, everyone knew each other's situation very well, and they couldn't fool people at all.

After all, he Levy is only a small shareholder, although he can exercise the power of Joe Lewis's big boss, but due to the financial crisis, Joe Lewis, who is also a little unhappy, is still waiting for the deal to be reached and get the pound to relieve the pressure.

"The reason why Levy has been holding on is that he thinks Tottenham are based in London and have a strong quality and should be able to sell for a better price. He believes that if Tottenham have a high-quality manager, it can greatly improve Tottenham's attractiveness. So last month, Levy made a special trip to Spain to visit Ramos. It's a pity that Ramos rejected him. ”

David Dunn is very much in agreement with Levy's assertions, that is, Levy's ability is really enough, too, after all, his connections and power in football are really a hard injury, and some people are not rich enough to be invited, of course, unless they offer a sky-high price that is difficult to refuse. Although Levi's reason is recognized, the price still has to be argued.

You know, David Dunn got Andy's promise to give him 400 million pounds, and the lower he pressed the acquisition fee, the remaining part of the funds will become his operating funds for Tottenham Hotspur, whether it is the introduction of players, the renovation and expansion of the White Hart Lane stadium, or a little money from the young owner to build a new stadium, will make his life better.

Therefore, his negotiations with Levy have become a war of words, but Tottenham's acquisition valuation has also been suppressed by him to 250 million pounds, which is not far from his psychological price of 210 million pounds.

"Otherwise, it can be acquired for 250 million pounds, and the valuation of 40 million is not bad, saving you a lot of dreams at night... Ahem, you're in charge of your decision. Andy was a little worried that the negotiations would be interfered with by other factors or that the negotiations would not be able to reach an agreement, and he wanted to end the acquisition as soon as possible, and as soon as he finished speaking, he saw David Dunn looking at him with resentment, Nima, a middle-aged and old man looking at himself with resentment, which really made Andy embarrassed and had goosebumps.

"Boss, you don't have to worry, you don't have to care about the media reports, what experts, celebrities, the opinions of the fans, some fans also because the negotiator is me, their former sworn enemy to the Tottenham club to demonstrate, saying what is going to bring down the Tottenham conspiracy, hehe, it's ridiculous, the media in London likes to use all kinds of eye-catching reports to make trouble, most people take these reports as a pastime, don't care. ”

David Dunn knew what his young boss was worried about, nothing more than the fear that the negotiations would collapse, and then continued to explain: "Boss, I think it is necessary for you to meet with Joe Lewis, maybe you can reach a consensus, you must know that Mr. Lewis has had a very bad time recently, and this run has hit the banking and financial circles hard." ”

Andy narrowed his eyes slightly, touched his chin and groaned for a moment, to be honest, he really deserved to meet this Joe Lewis, whether it was from the team or contact with the British financial community.

"Yes, I'll leave it to you. ”
