Woodward poured himself a glass of whisky, took a sip, and said to Mr. Lai: "Our English clubs, if there is a good player who is favored by other clubs, they will generally offer a sky-high transfer fee out of politeness. To show that this player is not for sale. Like today, you are willing to pay a sky-high price for Liu, and I can only offer you a sky-high transfer fee on behalf of Manchester United Club. ”

Mr. Lai said happily: "There is a discussion about the price!" Please make an offer. ”

Woodward took another sip of whisky: "Ten billion pounds!" What do you think? ”

Mr. Lai slapped his chair: "Mr. Woodward! As far as I know, Manchester United's market value is only 3 billion euros, Real Madrid's is only 3.4 billion, and Barcelona's is only 3.2 billion. At a price of 10 billion, it is enough for me to buy Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Barcelona! It's more than enough to buy half a Premier League team! Are you kidding? ”

Woodward really doesn't understand, he is also Chinese, why is it very easy to communicate with the old lieutenant Liu, but he can't seem to communicate with this Mr. Lai? It's not a difference in language, it's a difference in values!

Woodward nodded, "That's right, Mr. Lai." I'm kidding. Are you joking when you say that money can buy everything different? I was supposed to see you today as a courtesy. But your attitude really makes me 。。。。。 It feels incredible. ”

Mr. Lai said directly to Liu Yun in Mandarin: "Brother Liu. You know, Neymar's transfer to Grand Paris is an automatic liquidated damages clause. The transfer fee of 220 million euros is not a transfer fee in the strict sense, but a liquidated damages! I've inquired about your liquidated damages beforehand. In the middle of the season, when Manchester United extended your contract and gave you a raise, the liquidated damages were raised to £350 million. I just offered a transfer fee of 300 million pounds, which is politely giving face to these foreign ghosts. A fixed price of £1.3 million a week, as long as you are willing to come to West Bromwich Brom, I am willing to pay £350 million in liquidated damages! £1.3 million a week, that's £65 million a year. In West Brom for two years, you are worth more than a billion RM directly when you return to China! What do you think? ”

Liu Yun smiled bitterly: "I can only follow the example of Chairman Woodward and make a joke with you, Mr. Lai." Even if you gave me all your wealth, I wouldn't be going to West Brom. ”

After hearing this, Mr. Lai shook his head, stood up, and said in Cantonese: "Unreasonable! ”

Although the matter was not negotiated, Mr. Lai still shook hands with Liu Yun, Woodward, and Mourinho politely.

As he shook Bart's hand, Bart deliberately didn't see it, turning his head to look at the whiskey that Woodward had placed on the table.

Mr. Lai smiled awkwardly: "Goodbye, goodbye!" ”

After Mr. Lai left, Mourinho, who had not spoken, suddenly burst out laughing: "Liu, I'm laughing to death." I have the impression that Chinese people are as polite and wise as you. Unexpectedly, the Chinese compatriot I saw you today is really 。。。。。。 Lovely! It's so cute! It's as cute as your newborn daughter Emma! ”

Bart said angrily, "Cute is the word to describe that rude guy just now? Jose, you're going to learn British English grammar! ”

With that, Bart picked up Woodward's whiskey bottle and poured himself a glass.

"Bart, you're rubbing my wine again." Woodward said as he returned to his seat.

Mourinho said to Liu Yun: "Liu, since you are here, there is something I want to discuss with you." ”

Liu Yun asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Mourinho replied: "Anthony Martial, through his agent, has expressed his intention to move to the club this season. He was a promising young man. It's hard to grow into a superstar with you and Lukaku. I understand his decision. He's not a player out of United's youth system, he's leaving, I'm not going to force him to stay. The problem now is that I'm going to buy a strong center forward with a standing position to replace Ibrahimovic。。。。。。 ”

Liu Yun interrupted Mu Shuai's words: "Boss, it seems that the transfer matter is not something I should consider. We have a saying in China, which is that all actions are under command. No matter who you buy, I'll work well with him on the court! ”

He scored 48 goals in a league season and 25 in a single season in the Champions League. Such a result is enough for Liu Yun to become the club's ball bully and the boss of the locker room. But Liu Yun has always been so humble. Whether it is to the coach or to his teammates, he has always been polite.

Mourinho nodded: "Since you say so, I will start to prepare for the start of the transfer period with a few full-time scouts from the club. ”

While drinking whiskey, Bart asked Liu Yun: "How are the preparations for the coming-of-age ceremony of the little princess of Manchester United?" ”

Liu Yun said: "Helena is preparing for Yan Yan's coming-of-age ceremony at my house. By the way, all three of you are here, so I won't give you an official invitation. At 6 p.m. the day after tomorrow, please come to Yanyan's coming-of-age ceremony. ”

Bart asked, "Can I bring my family with me?" ”

Liu Yun nodded: "Of course you can, the more lively the better!" ”

Bart suddenly said to Liu Yun half-jokingly: "The little princess's boyfriend is on vacation now. He offered to train with United's development squad. Tomorrow the reserves have a friendly against Sao Paulo Juniors. Do you and the little princess want to come and see it? ”

Liu Yun nodded: "I'll go." But Yan Yan shouldn't go. ”

Mourinho interjected: "What, Qu broke up with the little princess?" ”

Liu Yun smiled: "That's not true." Now Yan Yan sticks to her sister's side every day, I'm afraid I don't have time to watch his game. ”

Woodward said to Liu Yun, "By the way, there is one more thing. The board of directors of the club held a meeting the day before yesterday. All the directors have been very pleased with Manchester United's results this year. Before the end of the meeting, I mentioned that you, Ibrahimovic and Lukaku shirts were in the room of honour. The Board of Directors decided to hold a ceremony on June 4, a week later, to place the LIL jersey on permanent display in the team's Hall of Fame. It was an extraordinary day when United won the Premier League in their first season. ”

Bart raised his glass to Liu Yun: "Congratulations, Liu." ”

Liu Yun replied with a smile, "Thank you." It's a great honour to be on display with your jersey in the Hall of Fame. ”

Bart took another sip of whiskey and said to Mourinho frankly: "Since the president of the club, the manager and the captain of the team are here today. One thing with all due respect! ”

Mourinho nodded.

"There have been a couple of good defenders in the reserve league this year," Bart said. You've been busy scouting defenders in Brazil lately, so why don't you scout our reserves? ”

Mourinho shook his head: "I know those guys, too young and inexperienced. ”

Bart is a straight-hearted man, and he has always been straight to Mourinho: "Too young? Inexperienced? I think I heard this more than 20 years ago. ”

Bart deliberately patted his brain: "Oh, I remembered. 95-96 season. Old Man Fergus sold Paul Ince, Mark Hughes, and Canchelski's main players, and reused Academy players such as Scholes, Beckham, me, and the Neville brothers, and the media thought that Old Man Fergus was crazy. They all think it's about giving up the rhythm of the new season. Even after losing in the first round of the league, Alan Hansen threatened: Ferguson can't win with a bunch of kids. Oh my God, they're still a bunch of kids, too young and inexperienced! ”

Bart sat down next to Mourinho: "But what about the result? That season we won the league and FA Cup double. ”

Assistant coach Bhatt has always been at odds with Mourinho on the issue of personnel. Barth, a member of the Class of '92, advocated for the bold use of academy players.

Mu Shuai replied noncommittally: "But as far as I know, in the 95-96 season, if there is no King Cantona, the 92 class alone will not win the double." Sorry, I didn't disrespect the class of 92, just be realistic. ”

Liu Yun showed the cunning of the Chinese people at this time. He didn't want to watch the quarrel between the leader and the deputy leader:

"I'm going to go back and see if my little daughter has finished drinking. Go first. ”
