Now that the funding problem has been solved, the next step is to consider the specific matters of the club. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The general manager has to find a professional manager who can spend a small amount of money, and Reeves can provide Parma with limited funds in the early stage, and a person who can spend a small amount of money is needed to be responsible for the transfer. Struggling to recall the many Serie A general managers in his previous life, Reeves soon had a choice.

In the 2004-05 season, only Zeman was a Czech among the Serie A coaches, Worrall left before his seat in Rome was hot, and in the 2005-06 season, all Serie A coaches became homegrown coaches. Very few foreign coaches can succeed in Serie A, and Italy is very xenophobic unless they are integrated into the foreign managers who have previously succeeded in Serie A. Whether it's Eriksen, Lidholm or earlier Herrera, they are all good at learning and using Italian oil skating and integrating into Italy. Eriksen even conquered the English with these skills, and Leadholm was considered to have "better Italian humor than the Italians". As for Herrera, 1/3 of Argentina's population is of Italian descent, and Argentines are born half Italian. Except, of course, for Mourinho in the future.

Secondly, you must be good at leading civilian teams, after all, Parma is a small club and cannot attract superstars to join. In the early stage, it must be a civilian lineup, which requires a suitable head coach to coach. Thinking of this, Reeves had a candidate in mind.

After these questions are considered, the chairman is the final decision-maker of the team's club work and team operation, except for the membership club, which is generally the team owner, or the person most trusted by the owner. Reeves knew that after the acquisition, the chairman of the team could not be himself, at least at first, he was too young and had too few accolades on the court to convince the public. What player would want to work for a young man? What fan would want to see their favorite club get a young man? In addition, among the owners of other clubs and league officials in the league, there are always some fools who think they are smart, and they will show their existence by bullying young people. Reeves is not afraid of trouble, but he also doesn't like this unnecessary trouble.

Therefore, in the early stage of acquiring the club, it is necessary to find a reliable person to be the nominal chairman to attract attention, and Reeves can only participate in player transactions for the time being, so that he can also focus more on the court.

Reeves didn't even think about the chairmanship, and his father's name came to mind.

If your father is the boss, what else is unreliable. It's just that my dad is a professor in college just to be leisurely, and now I want him to be a club owner part-time, so I don't necessarily agree, I have to find a way to persuade my father.

I have to think about this, I made myself a cup of coffee, Reeves sat at the window, looked at the bright lights outside the window, thought for a while, and when the coffee in the cup saw the bottom, Reeves finally had a solution in his heart.

Got up and looked at the time, it was already one o'clock in the morning, and the parents should have already slept, so they didn't bother them, Reeves went to the bathroom to rinse up, and fell asleep on the bed.

Early the next morning, Reeves called his father, who was away on vacation with his mother.

"Dad, there's something I want to trouble you." Reeves said cautiously, Dad Li Jianguo is the kind of person who is more lazy, and what he doesn't like the most is trouble, so Reeves is not very confident.

"Don't don't, don't bother me." As soon as he heard Reeves say this, Li Jianguo knew that there must be no good thing, the last time he spoke so politely, he still borrowed money to build a website, but he didn't know anything about the Internet, and he was cheated of a lot of money, or he asked people in the school to help build the website. It's certainly not going to be good this time.

"Why don't you listen to the remuneration first, Dad?" Reeves said with a flattering tone.

"Your dad and I are busy packing up, and your mom is putting on makeup, so we'll get ready to go out later."

"A yacht, isn't next year the 20th anniversary of my love with my mother, haven't you always wanted to send a yacht to your mother?" Hearing his father's prevarication, Reeves hurriedly threw out the conditions.

"How do you know I'm going to buy a yacht, you kid?" Halfway through the words, his voice was a lot quieter, especially the word yacht, and Reeves knew that his father definitely didn't want his mother next to him to know.

"You have turned over the coloring pages of the yacht in the men's magazines at home, and you don't love the sea, and I don't like the feeling of being adrift on the sea. Naturally, I wanted to buy it for my mother. Reeves said smugly, he had seen so many Detective Conan in his previous life, and there was still some reasoning about it.

"Have you figured it out, the yacht that your father fancied is not luxurious, but it costs 10 million or 20 million."

"Without the encounter between you and my mother, how could I have a son. Doesn't that have to be expressed? Reeves continued to flatter.

"Count you filial piety. With such a big amount of money this time, it seems that the trouble is not small, let's listen to it, I can help if I can, and I don't need to mention what I can't help. ”

"If there's anything you can't help, it's to borrow a little money and borrow 60 million euros from the family foundation for me."

"60 million euros! Poof, you really dare to speak, 6 million is okay to say, 60 million, hum, you are the family fund is all our family. This year's share of 80 million euros, you are asking for more than half of it. ”

"Just borrow for two years, and the interest rate is the highest in the family fund." Reeves gave conditions that could not be refused. If there were other ways, he would not have beaten the idea of the family fund, and the cost was a bit large.

The family fund encourages entrepreneurship and does not encourage borrowing money to expand, and small loans are lower than banks, but the interest rate on large loans is much higher than that of outside banks, and the son is calculated at the highest. That's not a small amount, there is money coming in, and there are two promising companies to endorse, the directors of the foundation will definitely agree, hearing this, Li Jianguo put away his cynical attitude and asked solemnly:

"Where are you going to use it?"

"Next year I will go to Serie A to play, I want to buy a Serie A team to build around myself, I was going to sell Skyfriends at a good price, use this money to buy, but it may be too late in time, I can only borrow some from the family fund first, the company I estimate that it can be sold for 1 billion US dollars, which is converted into about 780 million euros, which is definitely enough to repay the principal and interest."

"Didn't you originally plan to play in Ligue 1 for a few more years" Li Jianguo also saw the prospect of Skyfriends very clearly, and was not surprised by the decision to sell, but he was a little confused about Reeves' plan to play abroad next year.

"Ligue 1 is too small and I can't wait to play with the top stars."

Li Jianguo is still very supportive of his son's football, he does not ask his son to be rich and rich, he only asks him to be happy, compared to other rich children, his son makes him very proud. However, this matter needs to be considered, this is related to his son's next life choice, and he was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time before Li Jianguo agreed.

"My father will be the nominal chairman at that time. Recruit someone for me to take care of the day-to-day operations, Giuseppe Bepe Marotta, General Manager and CEO of Sampdoria. The club's business will be left to him, as for the players, the summer transfer can't catch up, and I will discuss the winter transfer with him. Reeves likes Marotta to be a person who likes to spend a little money and do big things, and he is low-key, hardworking and pragmatic.

Marotta is not as good as Moggie, but he is also one of the later transfer kings in his previous life, and his ability to spend a little money is unmatched, during his tenure as Sampdoria manager, he poached Cassano with empty gloves, and then introduced Quagliarella, Doni, Palombo and Pazzini for the Mariners, it is worth noting that these several acquisitions were all successful, it is worth mentioning that in the first year after Marotta left Sampdoria, Sampdoria, who was fourth in Serie A the year before, was relegated because of a bad transfer.

During his time at Juventus, he spent a total of 12 million euros to buy Pirlo (free transfer), Pogba (free transfer), Marchisio (academy), Khedira (free transfer), Vidal (12 million euros), and created a top midfield configuration for Juve. Although the ability to spend a lot of money is average, some people say that if you give Marotta 5 million, he can buy you 10 million people, but if you really give Marotta 20 million, the players he bought are still at the level of 10 million. He is also known as the general manager who will not sell people, but his ability to spend a small amount of money is too suitable for the current Parma, 60 million euros minus 40 million acquisition costs, and the remaining 20 million after deducting the club's operating expenses, the rest as transfer funds is only about 10 million. Reeves believes Marotta can make some good deals with the money.

"What about the manager?"

"The current manager of the team, Stefano Pioli, has only coached Serie B, which is definitely not suitable, and he is not at home all the time, I heard that he is only writing a column for the newspaper in England. When the time comes, you can invite him here, but now you can contact him first, and remember to make a long-term appointment. "Of course, Reeves has to find someone who is very capable, who is low-key, who doesn't interfere with reinforcements, who has the ability to watch the food (the ability to use the existing resources).

In Reeves' memory, there were only three people who agreed to the conditions: Carlo Ancelotti, Claudio Ranieri and Massimiliano Allegri. As the saying goes, look for Ancelotti, look for Allegri for turnips and cabbage, and look for Ranieri for leftovers. Carlo Ancelotti can take control of a star-studded club, Massimiliano Allegri can reap good results with a mixed squad, and Claudio Ranieri can bring a team with a shortage of young generals to an extraordinary record.

Among them, Ranieri is the most suitable for Parma at the moment, he is the kind of low-key and pragmatic manager, not suitable for leading giants, suitable for those middle and lower teams without big names, and is good at making proposition essays, good at fine-tuning and improving the existing lineup, good at using players in other positions, and making up for obvious loopholes in the lineup after training, rather than blindly buying players in the corresponding positions, which has also achieved certain results. Jianghu people are called "tinkerers". And the other two are not available at this time, Carlo Ancelotti is now proud of AC Milan and will not deign to come here, Allegri is now an assistant coach at Udinese, and is still learning how to lead the team with his mentor Galeone.

Ranieri has been at home since his dismissal from Valencia, writing a column for newspapers in England, and he will not refuse an offer to him. Historically, he became Parma's interim firefighting manager next year, leading Parma to bottom out and successfully relegation, but because he only signed a one-year contract and left after expiration, Reeves asked his father to sign a long-term contract.

"Okay, I kind of get it, your dad is a puppet." Li Jian teased with dissatisfaction in Chinese.

"And the Spanish island of Safiradura", Reeves' mother always wanted an island of her own. The island of Safiradura is located in the Bay of San Miguel, Spain, off the north coast of Ibiza. The entire 14-acre island has been built into a fully functional, well-equipped resort with a value of $39.7 million. In this way, there will be a place to go for the holidays in the future.

Reeves hemorrhaged, not only for his father's reward, but also for his mother's heart, borrowing flowers to offer Buddha. After chatting about the acquisition for a while, he put down the phone.

This matter came to an end, and the acquisition was handled by his father.
