Don't forget, Lu Shaohua has an intelligence network all over the world, although finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but in the case of a designated national border, he is a football player, and the scope of the search has been greatly narrowed, and the surname found may be too big, so big that it is close to 100%.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Tiger Roar intelligence network that Lu Shaohua is not afraid of not finding anyone, so that the scouting network on Manchester United's side stops, and he himself sends someone to find it, and after finding someone, Lu Shaohua asks Manchester United to send scouts to lobby, and then signs a contract to become a member of the Manchester United team.

But then again, it takes time to find someone after all, Lu Shaohua was not in a hurry, nor was he in a hurry to call Li Zhijie immediately, but was waiting for the names of the players faxed from Manchester United.

From beginning to end, the staff sent from the Phoenix Group did not report to Lu Shaohua the names of the players who could not be found, Lu Shaohua could be said to be black-eyed, he didn't know anything, and could only wait for the fax.

Well, if it weren't for Lu Shaohua's request, the staff over there would have wanted to report directly on the phone, but they just asked Lu Shaohua to stop it, but asked him to sort out the names of the players who had been called into the Manchester United team and the names of several players who couldn't be found into a document and then fax it over.

Foreign faxes always take time, Lu Shaohua waited for twenty minutes before the fax machine on the desk responded, took the paper, put it into the fax machine, and then printed the documents, which was a very simple thing.

When the faxed documents were read, Lu Shaohua breathed a sigh of relief, the reason is very simple, those players who can't be found are not the most critical players, such as Ronaldo, Messi, Kaka, these players are obviously in the list that has been called.

Whether it is Ronaldo or Kaka, or Messi, their future achievements have climbed to the peak, they belong to the kind of players who must be called, and now they are owned by Manchester United, how can Lu Shaohua not breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Lu Shaohua sighed again after breathing a sigh of relief, this time because of Ribery, this is a super striker, although he has not won the European Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year, but his attack power is definitely the top existence, in the future, his name in France is below Zidane.

This player can't be found, this is the reason why Lu Shaohua lamented, but it doesn't matter, Lu Shaohua knows that Ribery's family environment is very poor, and when he was young, he had to play amateur football while working, and he has always been favored by a French club, and finally he can enter a giant team like Bayern and become famous throughout Europe.

On the surface, this information is useless, but if this information is put into Li Zhijie's hands, I believe that it will not be long before Li Zhijie can find Ribery. Yes, Lu Shaohua believes that Li Zhijie can be found.

Since this is the case, what else does Lu Shaohua have to worry about, print out the names and known information of several players who can't be found, form a document, and then fax it to Africa, and then call Li Zhijie again to explain, and this matter is over.

However, what Lu Shaohua doesn't know is that Li Zhijie is actually a football fan, well, when it comes to Li Zhijie being a football fan, he has to mention his wife, his wife is a typical Frenchman, unrestrained and enthusiastic, which makes her deeply obsessed with football.

Perhaps Li Zhijie was influenced by his wife, who was also fascinated by football a few years ago, and liked the French team very much, and admired Zinedine Zidane, who is known as an artist on the football field.

It's good now, Lu Shaohua bought the Manchester United team, and planned to buy Zidane, Li Zhijie was naturally overjoyed, no, when Lu Shaohua called him, Li Zhijie said that after buying Zidane, he must leave a box at Manchester United's home stadium, and he has time to go to the UK to watch the game.

A box is worth a lot of money, but that is for the outside world, for Lu Shaohua, a box is not worth much, not to mention that Lu Shaohua is the owner of the Manchester United team, he does not lose money, at most it is to charge less money for a box.

"Haha......"

After Li Zhijie learned that Lu Shaohua agreed, he laughed, paused before going back to the topic, and said. "One of the people on the list you sent me is French, and I can completely help my wife's family, they are local snakes, and it is easy and fast to find someone."

In Li Zhijie's mind, his wife's family has received a lot of benefits, for example, during the Asian financial turmoil, there was news of Li Zhijie, so that he did not enter the Hong Kong financial market and avoided losses, which is to thank Lu Shaohua.

But what about them? So far, he hasn't said anything at all, which makes Li Zhijie really a little unbearable, no, now that he has found an opportunity, it's time for them to repay the favor, find something for them to do, and return the favor.

Of course, Lu Shaohua, who stayed in Hong Kong, didn't know Li Zhijie's thoughts, but even if he knew, Lu Shaohua wouldn't say anything, at most he would laugh at it. 'You just go and arrange it, well, the people on the list have to be found, those people are the future of Manchester United, there is no room for failure.'

"Guaranteed to get the job done." Li Zhijie swore a solemn word.

…… After Lu Shaohua finished looking for a few players, he put himself into work again, and unconsciously, two hours had passed, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, if someone hadn't knocked on the door and pulled Lu Shaohua back to reality, Lu Shaohua would have continued to work.

"Please come in."

Lu Shaohua shouted, and then stopped staring at the documents on the desk, but lit a cigarette, staring at the direction of the door without blinking, to see who was coming.

There is no accident, the person who came was Lu Shaohua's acquaintance, and he was also one of the few high-level executives of the Phoenix Group, namely Liu Mingzhang and Li Yunqing, and Li Zongen, who rarely appeared in the Phoenix Group.

The three giants of Phoenix Finance, yes, they are the three giants of Phoenix Finance. However, they appeared together in Lu Shaohua's office today, and it is conceivable that Lu Shaohua is brewing a big operation.

Lu Shaohua saw that it was Liu Mingzhang and they came, so he patted his forehead, looking a little helpless, yes, Lu Shaohua was helpless, because he almost forgot that Liu Mingzhang was called by himself, if they hadn't come to the door, Lu Shaohua would have forgotten that there was such a thing as calling them here.

Now it's okay, Liu Mingzhang and they are here, Lu Shaohua also remembered, pointed to the sofa next to him, and motioned for them to sit down, Lu Shaohua stood up in the boss's chair, and followed him to the edge of the sofa and sat down.

"I'm calling you here today for Wal-Mart." Lu Shaohua went straight to the topic in the first sentence of his mouth, and then said. "You should know that the first Phoenix supermarket in Hong Kong has opened, and it won't take long to standardize it, and after accumulating enough experience, we will officially enter the international retail industry."

Speaking of this, Lu Shaohua deliberately paused for a moment, glanced at Liu Mingzhang and the three of them, and then continued. "The time when we're gaining experience is also the time to buy Wal-Mart, and you have to buy Wal-Mart shares during this time, whether it's a controlling stake or more than 40 percent, and that's a task that has to be done."

Lu Shaohua's tone is extremely tough, with some factors that cannot be rejected and cannot be defeated, and there is also a faint revelation of a different kind of information from Lu Shaohua's words, which probably means to acquire at all costs.

Liu Mingzhang obviously heard what Lu Shaohua meant, but this kind of thing can't be joked, even if Liu Mingzhang understands Lu Shaohua's meaning, he has to be sure. "Is it at all costs?"

"That's right, at all costs." After speaking, Lu Shaohua paused again and added one more sentence. "If necessary, I can have people cooperate with you, and the use of force must also complete the mission."

What the? Use of force?

Liu Mingzhang They know that the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group, the world's largest and strongest mercenary group, was established by Lu Shaohua, to put it bluntly, the powerful mercenary group of Tiger Roar is owned by Lu Shaohua, if Lu Shaohua uses force, then will he use the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group?

If Lu Shaohua used the Tiger Roar mercenary group, then the matter would be really big, and it would be inevitable that the Walton family would be wiped out.

"Pray, pray for the Waltons." Liu Mingzhang said this secretly in his heart.

However, don't look at Liu Mingzhang looks very gentle, that's just his appearance, in fact, he has a belligerent heart, to paraphrase Liu Mingzhang's words: no poison and no husband.

"I'm going to try to buy Wal-Mart without using force, well, I can't guarantee that if it can't be done peacefully, I'll tell you." Liu Mingzhang said lightly.

"Okay." Lu Shaohua nodded and said.

In fact, Lu Shaohua doesn't want to use force to solve all problems often, if he can solve them by peaceful means, Lu Shaohua is happy to use peaceful means to solve them, as for force, that is Lu Shaohua's last trick, and it is also Lu Shaohua's strongest hole card.

"Okay, if you want to smoke, take it yourself, I see your saliva is falling." Lu Shaohua shook his head with a wry smile, looked at Liu Mingzhang and said.

Liu Mingzhang usually doesn't smoke, it's not that he doesn't smoke, but his wife doesn't allow him to smoke, and he quit over time, but not long ago, after smoking Lu Shaohua's cigarettes, he became obsessed again, and occasionally secretly smoked a few cigarettes.

No, when he knew that what Lu Shaohua was going to say was over, Liu Mingzhang stared at the pack of cigarettes that Lu Shaohua put on the table, and the greedy look could even be seen by a three-year-old child, let alone Lu Shaohua, a shrewd person.

"Hey......

Liu Mingzhang smiled and said. "Then you're welcome."

"Take it, take it." Lu Shaohua said impatiently.

…… With Lu Shaohua's order, the acquisition of Wal-Mart began, presided over by Liu Mingzhang, with the cooperation of Li Yunqing and Li Zongen, divided into three capital flows to carry out a sweep of Wal-Mart's shares in the stock market.

But then again, Liu Mingzhang and how they went to sweep, Lu Shaohua didn't know, because Lu Shaohua didn't care about things over there from beginning to end, and Lu Shaohua started to be busy with other things after arranging the acquisition of Wal-Mart.

On the British side, it is a problem that Lu Shaohua is concerned about, not the Manchester United team, but the result of the British inspection team.

Lu Shaohua has always done what he says, and he will do what he promised the British president, and two days after he returned to Hong Kong, an expedition team of 13 people set out for Britain for inspection.

Seeing that more than ten days have passed, the team that went to the UK for investigation should also come back, and when they come back, that is, when the report is available, Lu Shaohua will naturally start to study the results.

This is also the reason why Lu Shaohua did not have time to pay attention to the acquisition of Walmart.

According to the report obtained by the delegation, the economy in the UK is indeed developed, and there are no giants in the retail industry, almost scattered retail companies, although Carrefour and Wal-Mart also have branches in the UK, but they are only in some cities, and do not invest too many branches.

This is an opportunity, Lu Shaohua is very agile to seize this opportunity, if the acquisition of Wal-Mart is successful, so that Wal-Mart does not stand up against Phoenix Supermarket, then it should not be difficult for Phoenix Supermarket to quickly occupy the British market.

In addition to the survey on the retail sector, the delegation also came up with an assessment of where most of the UK's cities might develop in the future, which was only assessed at Luk's request.

The reason why I want this assessment is because Lu Shaohua feels that it is better to open a Phoenix Supermarket branch in a prosperous place to compete with others, and it is better to open a place that is not very developed now, but will surpass it for a period of time in the future, so that it is almost possible to eat alone.

Of course, Lu Shaohua also has a requirement, that is, there must be a certain flow of people in that place, so that Phoenix Supermarket can be a source of customers as soon as it opens, at the very least, it is necessary to maintain the capital and operate, as for the loss-making operation after investment, Lu Shaohua has never thought about it.

It is precisely in this way that Lu Shaohua asked the delegation to evaluate certain places, find out the most suitable places for investment, and open overseas branches of Phoenix Supermarket.

The results came out, and the delegation provided Lu Shaohua with ten locations in the assessment report, which was the final result according to Lu Shaohua's requirements. If Lu Shaohua adopts it, the overseas branch of Phoenix Supermarket will be settled in the location of the assessment report.

Lu Shaohua trusted the delegation, read their professional evaluation report carefully, and finally nodded with satisfaction, which was considered to be decided and set the tone.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Shaohua also read an investigation report on British automobiles, which was also something that Lu Shaohua asked the delegation to investigate when they went to the UK.

Now that the report is out, the results show that in the UK, the majority of people buy their own national brand cars, accounting for nearly half of the market, and the rest is occupied by other car brands.

And Phoenix Motors seems to be more popular in the UK, with a fast market share, ranking behind local car brands, well, it is a local car brand, it is all British car brands, not a single brand.

If you count the ratio of a single brand, then Phoenix Motors definitely occupies the first position.

Since Phoenix Motors is so popular in the UK, why didn't Lu Shaohua acquire Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, and then inject funds to keep the Rolls-Royce brand, and inject the production of Phoenix Motors into the Rolls-Royce car base to form an overseas production base of Phoenix Motors.

Obviously, this method is feasible, and Lu Shaohua also decided at this moment, but before that, Lu Shaohua must first acquire Rolls-Royce, and after the acquisition is in hand, Lu Shaohua will take further action.

"Hey......"

Lu Shaohua sighed, Rolls-Royce is a car brand that is attractive, but Lu Shaohua has too many things to consider, such as the overall consideration of the Phoenix Group, but the results are not very optimistic.

One of the simple reasons is that there is too much money. Recently, Lu Shaohua has spent too much money, the acquisition of Manchester United, the ongoing acquisition of Wal-Mart, and the increase of the overseas market share of Phoenix products, which are all things that cost money.

Coupled with the expenses of the Phoenix Group itself, Lu Shaohua had to consider whether it was feasible to acquire Rolls-Royce now and whether it would cause a funding gap for the Phoenix Group.

The answer is very affirmative, that is, yes, if the acquisition of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars at this stage will definitely create a funding gap for Phoenix Group.

"Hey......"

Lu Shaohua let out a long sigh and muttered to himself. "After a while, it will get better after a while."

Also, the profit of the Phoenix Group is greater than the expenses and investment, and now the funds are less because Lu Shaohua has invested too much during this time, so that all the money he has earned has been spent, and there is not too much money left.

And if you wait for a while, then the situation will be different, at least, the agency of Phoenix Group's products can receive more than a billion dollars of funds. That's right, Lu Shaohua's pricing is like that, a rough calculation, if all the agent places are sold, then the Phoenix Group will earn more than one billion dollars.

Buying Rolls-Royce with a billion dollars of money is obviously too much, and with the current market value of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, it will not exceed $500 million at most. Of course, this is Lu Shaohua's rough estimate, and the specific amount will have to be determined by further investigation and evidence collection.

"Give me another month, and in a month I will definitely buy Rolls-Royce Motor Cars." Lu Shaohua gritted his teeth and said to himself.

Indeed, in another month, the agency should be all sold, and Lu Shaohua has more than one billion dollars in his hands, are you still afraid that you won't be able to buy a Rolls-Royce car company?

What's more, Lu Shaohua still has 17 percent of the shares of the Dutch Royal Shell Oil Company in his hand, and if he is in a hurry, Lu Shaohua can sell the shares to the British royal family and buy Rolls-Royce Motor Cars with a large amount of cash.

If this is the case, then what Lu Shaohua said will not be a lie a month later, but a real oath.

……
