Chapter 7 CR7&D9
At noon on Saturday, Ronaldo took his son from London to Dong Fangzhuo's house.
The sons of the two went to the football field early to play, and now their sons are in the Manchester United echelon at the same time, and they did not choose Southampton.
"Those two boys look like when we were younger."
"I wonder if in 10 years, they will be like us?"
Ronaldo sighed.
"Which aspect do you mean? Achievement? ”
'Not necessarily, not every player can work as hard as we and be as lucky as us. The son inherited his father's business, and was able to reach this height, I only remember Maldini in my memory. ”
"Actually, I don't really care, anyway, I'm not as poor as I used to be, and he has a lot of opportunities to choose from."
Thinking of his childhood life, Ronaldo's eyes are always full of emotion, although Ronaldo's life in that era was very difficult, it was the most ideal time.
"Honestly, have you thought about when you will retire?"
Ronaldo suddenly looked at Dong Fangzhuo.
"Retired?"
"Sometimes I think about it, but I always feel like I'm nowhere near the time to retire, what about you?"
"I thought it would be after the age of 35, maybe later. When I can't kick, I'll stop. ”
"Almost, maybe we can play until we are 40?"
"Then our kids will probably be on the same team as us, haha!"
The two of them walked around Dong Fangzhuo's private golf course, chatting very casually.
And then it was Messi.
"The fans have been shouting so happily lately, and our fans haven't been torn. My car was almost attacked in the morning and some of the fans were extreme. ”
"Maybe it's because Messi always loses?"
"Well, competitive sports are so cruel that there are no two winners. If I can't lead United to the desired results in three years' time, I probably won't play. I would go to Southampton so there would be no pressure. ”
"I can't, when I can't kick, I'll just retreat, I don't want to be sarcastically ridiculed by others!" Ronaldo's self-esteem is still very strong, "but again, I will remain at the top for at least 3-5 years." ”
Although the two often have their own masters, their friendship has not changed.
"Didn't you still get a coaching certificate, how is your progress now, you shouldn't pick up the whip after retirement, right?"
"Why not, leave football, I think I'm going to die, I'm ready for a B grade, there shouldn't be any problems."
"What about you, what are you going to do if you retire?"
"I'm definitely not going to be a coach, and if I wanted to, I'd invest like you did. I will work hard in the business world and invest in various brands of my own. By the way, would you be interested in doing something with me? I can leave you half of the shares. Recently, I'm trying to make a personal brand hotel, and the name was originally called CR7, but now I want to pull you in, and it's called CR7&D9, right? Commemorate our great friendship. ”
Dong Fangzhuo was moved, he didn't expect Ronaldo to think of himself in this matter, and suddenly he really felt a little selfish, when he bought Southampton, he didn't think about Ronaldo, but now when Ronaldo is doing big business, he is the first to think of him.
How could he be so embarrassed to refuse?
"Thank you,"
"So be it, but I'll also make a suggestion, if you have 51% of the shares, I'll count it as 49%. And if you're interested in Southampton, you can also get involved, and I won't hide it from you, I'll make Southampton bigger to the top level. But considering that it's a matter of our country, you're only going to have 49 percent. ”
"Really?" Ronaldo was visibly moved, but instead flashed a hint of gloom.
"But I don't have that much money right now......"
At that moment, he was still a little shy, in front of Dong Fangzhuo, he really had no money. Don't look at him as the top three highest-paid players in world football now, but Messi is not on the same level as he is compared with Dong Fangzhuo.
Dong Fangzhuo's annual income is at least 10~30 times that of them, so Dong Fangzhuo can easily buy Southampton, but Ronaldo cannot. Now Southampton's market value has soared to more than 300 million. If Ronaldo wants to get 49% of the shares, he will have to come up with at least 150 million pounds.
That's why Ronaldo feels shy......
In front of the vast majority of people, Ronaldo is very rich, but in front of Dong Fangzhuo, he can only cry poor.
"It's okay if you don't have money, you use your money to concentrate on your side first, and you should owe it to me. Money is not an issue. ”
Money is not an issue, Ronaldo rolled his eyes, he never felt so without money. I look like I'm really poor.
So don't pretend to be rich in front of Dong Fangzhuo......
"Okay, that's it." Ronaldo is not welcome.
Such a large transaction was easily completed in front of them. If the news gets out, it will definitely cause a huge shock.
The two of them didn't just talk about it, and then immediately called Mendes, who was not only their agent, but also the big steward of the two of them, and it could be said that he was almost in charge of the economic lifeblood of these two people.
The two of them told Mendes what they thought, but Mendes was not surprised.
"I was touched by both of you, I think it's perfect."
"Fack,"
"That's what friendship means." Mendes seemed to be genuinely moved.
"I watched you both from your teens to now, and I know the feelings of both of you, haha, alas, am I old? Time flies. ”
Mendes rubbed his eyes and hurried to talk about business.
"Ronaldo, then I'll change the hotel logo to CR7&D9."
"No, put D9 in front." Cristiano Ronaldo interrupted.
"No, you have to be in front, because you are the one who takes the lead. In any case, it can't be me. Dong Fangzhuo expressed resolute opposition.
The name is also knowledgeable in front and behind, and the name in front is definitely more important, which is very intuitive. Dong Fangzhuo doesn't want others to misunderstand Ronaldo following him, but follows Ronaldo himself, which is respect for Ronaldo.
"Ok, I also think what Dong said is reasonable, this matter is decided, and the other thing is about movies."
"The time you both had at Manchester United was important, Ronaldo, did you choose a role? Dong's side has already finalized it. ”
"I didn't ...... But I think he must be like me in personality, and he must act emotionally. ”
"I think the Hollywood ...... I can't remember the name of who's that. ”
"I'll think about it again,"
"Ah, the protagonist of Spider-Man? The young one. ”
