On the surface, the Manchester United team seems to be just a traditional giant football team, but it can be said to Lu Shaohua that this is not the case, Lu Shaohua regards the Manchester United team as a team that can communicate with business, and the Phoenix Group is hooked, then the Manchester United team will become a strategically important empty hole for the Phoenix Group.

The whole of Europe, the whole of England, as long as people who love football will not know Manchester United team, even in Asia, Manchester United team has a great reputation, now Manchester United team is under the banner of the Phoenix Group, what benefits will the Phoenix Group get?

Needless to say, the Phoenix Group will be known by more people, and its reputation will naturally increase, which is not an advertising effect, if Lu Shaohua replaces the Manchester United team's badge with the Peugeot of the Phoenix Group, the effect can be imagined, and it is an advertising effect.

This is also the reason why Lu Shaohua attaches so much importance to the Manchester United team. Of course, there is also the reason that Lu Shaohua was a football fan in his previous life, and he bought a team to implement his superstar development plan.

However, Lu Shaohua has not been in contact with the club after all, and he has no experience in managing a club, but fortunately, Lu Shaohua does not plan to participate in the management of the club, he only needs to hang up the idle position of chairman, and other things can be handed over to professional talents.

However, now the Manchester United team has just been acquired, well, in fact, it can't be regarded as a real acquisition, Lu Shaohua only owns most of the shares, and some shares are in the hands of others, and there is still one last step to really complete the acquisition.

This final step is also very simple, which is to remove Manchester United from the stock market and then exchange the shareholders who have announced another stake in their shares. In previous lives, the Glazer family did just that, removing Manchester United from the stock market and then announcing that they would exchange money for a limited time.

Yes, the Glazer family's approach is a mandatory surname, and it is also limited to a limited time, which has aroused the dissatisfaction of the fans, and Lu Shaohua, a reborn person, of course he will not make those mistakes, they will solve this matter in a peaceful way.

"Tell me, what's going on now?" Lu Shaohua asked lightly.

Lu Shaohua doesn't know what the name of the person sitting in front of him is, but it doesn't matter, Lu Shaohua just needs to know that they are from the Hong Kong Phoenix Group, and he, Lu Shaohua, as the boss, doesn't need to talk nonsense.

The two staff members of the Hong Kong Phoenix Group knew Lu Shaohua, but they had not been in contact with each other before, and they saw it today, and now they are sitting in the same car, and the two seem a little restrained, but soon, his restraint disappeared, because Lu Shaohua talked about business, and they quickly put themselves into work.

"Lu Dong, now that the acquisition has been completed, 89.3% of Manchester United's shares are controlled by us, and the remaining 10.7% is flowing in the stock market." A thin, gold-rimmed job went straight to the point, and after a pause, he continued. "It was originally a secret acquisition, but you also know that with such a big move, it is impossible for us to completely block the news, so the outside world already knows the news."

"Hmm." Lu Shaohua nodded, he didn't speak, and it wasn't that Lu Shaohua didn't speak, but at this moment, his car just opened the special passage of the airport and went out of the airport, but there was a constant flash of light outside.

What is that?

Needless to say, it was the camera's flash. Reporters, yes, that's right, there are all reporters outside, although there is no way to see Lu Shaohua's people from the outside, but those reporters are still desperately strangling the film.

Lu Shaohua thought that he already knew the reaction of the outside world, from the dozens of reporters holding cameras and constantly taking pictures, but this is just reporters, Lu Shaohua doesn't care about them, Lu Shaohua cares about the reaction of fans. "What was the reaction of the fans?"

There was once a saying from someone in the football industry that football without fans is no longer football.

Lu Shaohua agrees with this sentence, if his acquisition separates Manchester United's die-hard fans, then Manchester United is still the same Manchester United as before, will it still be the team called the Red Devils in Europe?

"The response was also enthusiastic, but it was not as fierce as expected, a large part of the fans were watching, and some of the more radical fans organized several protest marches." This time, it was another staff member who answered Lu Shaohua's words.

"yes, I see." Lu Shaohua had a calm face, and he couldn't see a trace of a different expression, and he continued after a long time. 'I'll have a press conference at Old Trafford tomorrow at 2pm and I'll be there in person, and tomorrow morning I'm going to see the manager and the players.

Lu Shaohua has decided that this matter should not be delayed any longer, but must be resolved as soon as possible, and holding a press conference is the most effective way. As for meeting the head coach and players, it is to appease them, don't forget, the season is not over yet, Lu Shaohua doesn't want to see an unstable team.

"Understood."

"Understood."

…… Before Lu Shaohua came to the UK, he had already ordered someone to buy a villa in Manchester, but now that others have come, he doesn't need to go to a hotel, he can stay in a villa directly, which can be regarded as a home here.

Think about it, Lu Shaohua has already bought the Manchester United team, as the owner, how can he not care about the team, it is inevitable to come to the home stadium to watch the ball occasionally, and it is also necessary to settle a home here.

Maybe fortunately, Lu Shaohua bought a villa here, otherwise he wouldn't have been killed by the paparazzi when he stayed in the hotel, don't forget, the paparazzi in Hong Kong have been passed over from the United Kingdom, and the United Kingdom, as the ancestor of the inheritance, the horror of the paparazzi can be imagined.

Lu Shaohua has been running around all these years, but he has developed a habit of adapting to an unfamiliar environment, so even if he comes to the UK, Lu Shaohua can adapt very well, eat something after a small rest, and Lu Shaohua will go to sleep.

After a night of nothing, the next morning, Lu Shaohua woke up automatically, washed up, and then sat on the sofa and waited.

Lu Shaohua is the first time to come to the UK, and Manchester is also the first time, he is not familiar with life here, and it is impossible to go to the club by himself, so he can only wait for someone to pick him up.

Not long after, the staff who went to pick up the airport yesterday came over, picked up Lu Shaohua and his party, and the car drove in the direction of the Carrington training base.

One might ask, why not go to Old Trafford?

Old Trafford is really just a stadium, not where the club is located, but where the club is located at the Carrington training ground, where Manchester United gather.

I don't know what the staff of the Phoenix Group thought about it, but it happened that when they helped Lu Shaohua buy a villa, it was near the Carrington training base, and the drive was only ten minutes, so when Lu Shaohua and his party began to set off to their destination, they were in the blink of an eye.

Lu Shaohua is now the owner of Manchester United, so when Lu Shaohua's team entered the Carrington training base, whether it was the club's senior management, the manager, or the players, they all stayed aside and came to greet him.

Just kidding, that's the boss, everyone in the club is working for Lu Shaohua, do they dare not come to greet him? If they don't come, maybe Lu Shaohua will give them small shoes to wear.

I have to say that sometimes, Lu Shaohua still likes to pay attention to pomp and circumstance, seeing so many people to greet him, Lu Shaohua still couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment, but soon hidden, Lu Shaohua showed a gentle smile, got out of the car, and was introduced by the staff, and shook hands with everyone one by one.

When Lu Shaohua shook hands with Ferguson, the head coach, Lu Shaohua also specially talked with him for a few words, well, chattered, and didn't say anything serious.

The manager is followed by the players, with the captain at the top of the list, Roy Keane, and then the heartthrob David Beckham. I have to say that Lu Shaohua has the deepest impression of Beckham, a heartthrob, and deliberately patted him on the shoulder when shaking hands, smiled lightly, and replaced him with another one.

After shaking hands one by one, Lu Shaohua glanced at everyone again, smiled again, and then said loudly in English. 'Manchester United is a great club, there's no denying that and I'm proud to be in such a team.'

This is the official rhetoric, very formulaic, but it is a procedure that must be passed, and only after this procedure can Lu Shaohua enter the next procedure and say words to appease the inside. "Now that I'm in charge of this team, well, first of all, I'm a die-hard fan of Manchester United, and although I don't usually have much time to watch the game, I can't say that I'm not a die-hard fan, hehe......"

Lu Shaohua made a small joke, and the facts proved that the joke made by Lu Shaohua was very good, everyone laughed, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

"Since I'm a die-hard fan, then I'll work hard to build this team, there's no doubt about that, as for how to build it, it's actually very simple, I'll put in it, hehe, I think a lot of people checked my information before I came, right? Hehe, that's right, I'm the chairman of the Phoenix Group, and I am also the owner and founder of the entire Phoenix Group, I don't think everyone will doubt my financial problems, right? Lu Shaohua talked very humorously.

"The season is not over yet, what I want to say is, if this season can be achieved, then there will be no shortage of prize money, as for how much? Let me tell you first, in addition to the prize money for winning the championship, I will personally pick up a million pounds to reward everyone, well, remember, one winner plus another million pounds, if two titles are doubled, double on the original basis, two million, if three champions are four million, and, if I win the Champions League, I will add another two million from the original base. In the end, Lu Shaohua threw out the reward plan, which is also Lu Shaohua's money policy.

"Gentlemen, for the money, hehe, that's right, it's for the money, for the honor of our club, everyone work hard to win a few more championships and come back." Lu Shaohua made a closing remark.

Applause, yes, very warm applause, for Lu Shaohua, for the new owner of Manchester United.
