Mr Morris took Liu Yun on a tour of his "Manchester United Memorial Room".

The room is filled with a variety of Manchester United memorabilia. There are Manchester United shirts from the old League One era in the 80s, as well as the latest shirts from last season.

"This is an autograph given to me by Cantona. Here's a picture of David Beckham and me. Oh, this one is amazing. It was Sir Alex Ferguson's remaining half of a cigar after winning the Champions League final in '99. I got it through a charity auction. ”

Morris enthusiastically introduces his various collections.

Liu Yun said approvingly: "Manchester United has come to this point because of the support of die-hard fans like you for decades. ”

After visiting for more than an hour, it was time for dinner.

Morris led Liu Yun to the restaurant.

During the dinner, Morris said bluntly: "Tell the truth, old lieutenant. I never expected you to pay attention to my offer. As far as I know, my offer is the lowest of all buyers. ”

Liu Yun said: "In a sense, I am now choosing a manager for Manchester United. I can't just look at the quotes. With Arsenal's example, I can't afford to repeat the mistakes of the past. You are a man who truly loves Manchester United and a successful businessman. I'm sure you'll be able to keep Manchester United's glory alive. ”

Morris asked, "With all due respect. Why don't you transfer the stock to your son-in-law or his wife, Isabella? ”

Liu Yun smiled: "It's not that I haven't thought about this. My son-in-law loves Manchester United, there's no doubt about it. But he was only a young man in his twenties. Hot-blooded, impulsive. Aside from playing football, he doesn't know anything about business. Admittedly, there is chairman Woodward who helps him run the club. But when it really came time to make a choice for Manchester United, I was afraid that he would make the wrong choice because of his own impulsiveness and bury the glory of this 140-year-old club. ”

Morris asked, "What about your wife?" As far as I know, she is a successful philanthropist. She has several very successful charity projects on her hands. She should be a good manager. ”

Liu Yun shook his head: "I have consulted my lawyer. The FA is not stupid. If I were to transfer my shares to my immediate family, I would be subject to endless investigations and countless follow-up troubles. ”

Morris shrugged his shoulders: "Okay. Are you sure you'll consider my offer? ”

Liu Yun said: "The quotation is not a problem. Now I would like to ask you, if you are the majority shareholder of Manchester United, what do you think about the future development of Manchester United? ”

Morris said: "If I were a major shareholder, I would suggest that the board of directors invest more money in youth training. Young people are the future of Manchester United. In 1999, I witnessed Sir Alex Ferguson lead a group of young people to the Treble. In terms of youth training, Arsenal actually did very well in the first two years. At one point in the Premier League, they were even nicknamed 'child labourers'. But their American boss used the team as an ATM. All the stars who became famous at a young age were sold out by him. He's profiting by selling Arsenal's future! I'm not going to do anything stupid like him!"

Morris added: "While increasing investment in youth training, I will find ways to continue to explore the international market. Selling Manchester United jerseys to all corners of the world. ”

Morris and Liu Yun had a great conversation.

Liu Yun finally made a request to Morris: if he transferred the shares to Morris, ask Morris not to fire Woodward and let Woodward continue to serve as the president of the club.

Morris gladly agreed.

A few days later, several major newspapers in England carried the news of Manchester United's change of ownership:

"Manchester United's new club – Maurice. The old lieutenant has reached an equity transfer agreement with Morris. ”

"The old lieutenant accepted the lowest offer – simply because the bidder was a die-hard Manchester United fan. That would cost him £380 million. ”

"Chinese businessman Qin Goode sent a letter to the US Securities and Exchange Commission, questioning the legitimacy of the old lieutenant's equity transfer - there must be an inside story for the equity transfer below half of the market price."

Qin Gude obviously looked at this equity transfer from the perspective of a businessman. He will not understand that the £380 million loss, compared to the old lieutenant's love for Manchester United, is not worth mentioning at all. ”

"At the signing ceremony, the old lieutenant said to his successor, Morris: Please let the glory of Manchester United continue."

——————

The matter of equity transfer is finally over. Liu Yun's energy was once again put on Coventry's side.

The introduction of personnel for the transfer period begins. Coventry's transfer budget this year can be described as a shotgun.

Last year, they only paid a measly £10 million transfer fee. But this year, the budget figure reached £90 million.

Last season's impressive performances earned Coventry several huge sponsorship contracts. Coupled with the Premier League broadcast fee dividends, today's Coventry can be said to have rice in the pot, and there is no panic.

However, a rumor has also begun to circulate within the Coventry City team.

The originator of this rumour is the unreliable The Sun: Coventry now has a large transfer budget. In the new season, Edda and the old lieutenant will definitely not rely on a group of children to fight the world again. They will hide a few young players with less experience and buy a few long-established European big-name players to replace them.

The news made the Coventry Army uneasy.

On this day, Liu Yun was watching videos of several South American players with Edda. Zhao Kaixuan and Li Fanghua walked into the office.

"Boss, boss. We have something to ask you. ”

Zhao Kaixuan and Li Fanghua were divided.

Liu Yun asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Fanghua said: "We want to ask - is the report of the Sun true? In the new season, will the team press me and Triumph and Papa on the bench? ”

Liu Yun asked strangely: "Can you also believe the words of the Sun?" That's a pheasant newspaper! ”

Zhao Kaixuan said: "The Sun is talking about the Tao. We're all scared – in the new season, the club will bring in some big names who have been famous for many years to take our place. ”

Liu Yun asked again: "Other players, do you see it the same way?" ”

Li Fanghua nodded: "Huh." The Sun seems to have a lot of sense. Except for the best newcomer of the year, Xiaobai, Big Brother Manla, and the big guy, your main position will not be moved, and everyone else may be replaced by new big names. ”

Liu Yun knows very well that the military spirit is the truth of combat strength.

He and head coach Eda held an emergency intra-squad meeting.

Liu Yun said categorically to the players: "The media said that we will buy some big names to replace your main position." Do you believe that? Listen up, kids, what a big player, what a big player, what a big player - you are already a big player in the Premier League! In this year's transfer window, the club does have plans to bring in reinforcements. Those who can be bought will become your replacements! ”

Head Coach Edda chimed in: "The old lieutenant is right, boys, you are the big names!" Or the promising kind! ”
