Chapter 499: The Mayor of London is invited
Li Ming was also very excited in his heart, but he still said with a faint expression on his face: "These boys, come with me." ”
Just when Li Ming's heart was also moved, Xiao Luo suddenly laughed again, looked at Li Ming in the stands, and said with a thief's eyebrows: "Also, I have to say one more thing, boss, what you promised us, but don't forget, I really did my best in this game." ”
Kaka and the others were amused by Xiao Luo's words, but everyone also glanced at Xiao Luo, looked at Li Ming in the stands and said with a smile: "Boss, don't forget to promise us something, our happy holiday depends on you." ”
Li Ming stretched out his hand to cover his face and leaned in and said, "These cowards are really useless." ”
Yang Lu asked curiously: "Brother, what did you promise them, they seem to be very happy." ”
Li Ming didn't know how to tell Yang Lu about this, so he could only say depressedly for a long time: "Girls, don't be curious about everything, this is not what you should know." ”
Yang Lu sighed, but she was still very curious.
The celebration lasted until very late, and Li Ming kept wanting to leave with Yang Lu, but more than 100,000 people inside and outside the stadium fell into madness, and more and more people followed the madness, so Li Ming couldn't get out at all.
It wasn't until the evening that the team began to hold a celebration parade, and Li Ming was relieved, but just as he was about to leave, the general manager ran up quickly and said to Li Ming excitedly: "Chairman, Mr. Johnson, the Mayor of London, wants to invite you to the celebration dinner held tonight. ”
Li Ming looked at the general manager in surprise and said, "Li Ming doesn't have this item in my schedule." ”
The general manager said excitedly: "Yes sir." There really isn't one, it's something that the City of London Secretariat just called to invite you. Because we won the championship too hastily, the city of London was not ready. ”
Li Ming said: "Who attends the dinner. ”
The general manager said: "Mayor Boris will personally have dinner with you at that time. ”
Li Ming nodded and said, "Okay." Then I'll go over it. ”
Nowadays, for Li Ming, some gatherings can be refused, such as the dinner of the municipal government, if there is no mayor personally accompanied, Li Ming does not need to attend at all, but if the mayor arrives, then Li Ming still has to go, after all, the mayor is not a figure that can be seen casually.
Li Ming said to Yang Lu: "Sister, you can fly back alone at night." I'm afraid I won't be able to send you tonight. ”
Yang Lu nodded and said, "Don't worry, brother, you go and get busy, I'll go to Ruan Tianxiong to report tomorrow morning." ”
Li Ming sighed helplessly, originally Li Ming was going to send Yang Lu to meet Ruan Tianxiong in person, but now Li Ming had no way to do so, so he had to drive Yang Lu to the airport, and after seeing her get on the plane, Li Ming drove back to the Hilton Hotel alone to attend the dinner.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Ming was shocked by the luxurious hall in the hotel. Not because of the luxury of the hall, but because of the people in the hall, countless celebrities showed up at the dinner.
Li Ming was just about to enter, when suddenly the noisy hall fell silent. Everyone turned their eyes on Li Ming.
An old man with gray hair laughed and walked towards Li Ming with open arms.
Li Ming hugged the other party blankly, and the other party said, "Hello child, I'm Boris." That is, the mayor of the city. ”
Li Ming reacted at this time, and hurriedly said with a smile: "I'm really happy to see you." ”
Boris smiled and nodded. Pulling Li Ming to his seat, he said, "Congratulations to your team for winning the Premier League championship and winning glory for our city." ”
Li Ming said modestly: "These are all things I should do. ”
Came to his seat. Boris said to Li Ming: "I don't know if you have any plans next." ”
Li Ming knew that the topic was coming, Boris, as the mayor of a city, would never ask himself to attend a dinner for no reason.
Li Ming said: "I don't have any ideas for the time being, I don't know if Mr. Mayor has any suggestions?" ”
Boris said with a smile: "How about you build a new stadium, the stadium that Crystal Palace is renting now is too dilapidated and too old to accommodate 60,000 people, and the related facilities are not matched at all, it is better for you to build a new stadium, if you want, I can grant you a piece of land for free." ”
Li Ming immediately became alert and said, "Where is the land?" ”
Boris saw Li Ming's feelings, and immediately asked people to take out a map, opened it, pointed to a relatively desolate place, and said: "How about here, look here, so far, this is still an uninhabited area, if you are willing to build a stadium here, I will give it to you for free." ”
The desolate place that Boris gave Li Ming can be said to be too desolate, it is simply a deserted area, a full two hours' drive from the city, Li Ming doesn't know what the point of buying here is.
Li Ming looked at Boris with a smile and said, "Mr. Mayor, you are really good at business." ”
Boris didn't expect Li Ming to answer like this, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Li, I don't know what you think." ”
Li Ming shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, I can't agree with this place, it's too desolate, I don't think that building a stadium here will make my ticket income much higher, but I think the number of people who come to the stadium to watch the game will be reduced a lot." ”
Boris thought that a young man like Li Ming would be very easy to fool, but he didn't expect Li Ming to be such a person who doesn't eat oil and salt.
In desperation, Boris sighed and said: "Mr. Li, I can tell you clearly that the government is preparing to vigorously develop this place to solve the increasingly congested traffic in the city of London, believe me, with your stadium and our development, this place will definitely be good in the future." ”
Hearing what the other party said, Li Ming became a little interested, the congestion problem in London City is quite serious, Li Ming said: "Mr. Mayor, why don't you talk to me about the specific plan, and then let me make a decision." ”
Boris immediately said: "No problem, this is the document, you can read it slowly." ”
Boris handed a thick government document to Li Ming, saying, "Our plan is to relocate the main government departments such as the city government to this place, and at the same time build a new district here." (To be continued.) )
