Chapter 23: Long Telephone Conversations

Li Yunliang is busy in Taiyuan, where the headquarters of the old shopkeeper e-commerce network is located, the plan to launch on New Year's Day remains unchanged, many things need to be coordinated, and Lao Li, who has not done it himself for many years, has also changed the second spring. The old shopkeeper e-commerce www.biquge.info adopts a self-operated model, and there is no third-party seller for the time being, and a whole year of preparation, from warehousing to supply, online cooperation with various brands, and the establishment of their own logistics ...... Its core concept is the fine tradition that the old Jin merchants and old shopkeepers have been adhering to--- which is based on integrity. With the investment of huge capital, combined with the tradition of honest management of the old shopkeeper, high-quality service and fast logistics, we bravely entered the fiercely competitive e-commerce industry and strived to get a piece of this big cake.

He could hear his father's exhaustion and busyness on the other end of the phone, Li Haolong didn't say anything, reported the recent frequent situation, and expressed his concerns and plans to make a public acquisition, Li Yunliang was silent for a while, quietly without a sound, he couldn't help but be a little nervous.

"I agree with you, there is some truth in your opinion, we ignore the current environment, do not care about cultural differences, we are now going to do foreigners' business, although it is not too flattering, but at least it cannot cause others to be disgusted, but I still suggest a two-day delay."

"Why?"

"We Chinese want to do things safely, wait for the matter to be finalized and then announced, no later in these two days, the application should be approved immediately, you don't have to worry about the matter of funds, someone will do it, the money has long been in place, when the time comes, you can directly file it from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, and when the acquisition is completed, we will talk about capital injection." It turned out that I was going to announce it on New Year's Day and our plan together, it seems that the paper can't contain the fire, it's good to unveil it, hang their appetite, and the mysterious old shopkeeper will also come to the front of the stage, don't say the origin of the old shopkeeper when you make the official announcement, let them guess, yes, that's it, the effect may be better. But these British media are too powerful, they have dug it up, you have to pay attention to the image over there, I have seen a lot of rumors on the Internet, did you kid have a girlfriend? ”

Li Haolong didn't plan to hide it anymore, and admitted happily, "Yes, it was the writer of the last plan, a top student of Birmingham Business School, this time thanks to her for reminding me of the differences between China and foreign countries, Dad, she is an excellent and good girl, don't believe the mess in the newspaper." ”

"Hehe, I also taught you how to do things, I believe it or not, you think I don't know what you did in England, if that's the case, I would have blasted you back." Although I haven't met, I can see that she is quite capable, and her conduct is quite good among young people nowadays, and she is much more sensible than you. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, I have investigated her situation in the UK, except that her family situation is a little vague, but I don't think it's a big problem, I didn't continue to investigate, who she is and what she is, as long as you recognize our recognition, your mother has read her information, I like this girl very much, but son, I still want to warn you, private life is still as low-key as possible, that is not our Chinese style. You have to rest assured, although I checked her, but don't worry about the grass and trees around you, Dad is not so boring, he will keep an eye on you all the time, I just heard about it and couldn't help but want to see what kind of girl she is. ”

"I should have been angry that you found someone to check on her, but you praised her so well, I really don't know what to say now. Dad, tell me a word from the heart, if she is the kind of frivolous and superficial girl, but I like it very much, will you object? ”

There was silence for a long time on the other end of the phone before my father's sly reply came, "Even if she has a little merit, I may not object, but --- I don't guarantee your mother, if you can't bear to break her heart!" ”

"Dad, you're cheating!"

"Son, pity the hearts of parents all over the world, you have not become a father you will never be able to understand our feelings, in the matter of children's choice of mates, parents in the world are the same, even if you can't resist in the end, the unhappiness and standards in your heart are always there, you have to learn to understand us. Fortunately, this daughter-in-law is good, even if you are lucky, we are lucky, if it is that Ida, I think I am afraid I will have a headache, but fortunately, now this problem is lost to Wu Jun, haha, enough for him to drink a pot. ”

"Dad, why are you like this, even if you investigate us, you also investigate others, you don't respect my friend at all, and besides, Ida is really not the kind of girl you think she is, except for being crazy."

"Yes, the family background is still prominent! The youngest daughter of Wenzhou giant Chen Baozong, the little princess who didn't dare to give the moon to the stars. ”

"Ah, I knew she should be in good condition, but I didn't expect ...... It's so hidden! ”

"That is, there are a few simple people in Wenzhou, starting from leather shoe factories and foreign trade, with assets of billions, and they are also a legend."

"How do I compare to you, Dad."

"Can anyone compare to your dad and me? Can my strength be explained in numbers? Xu felt that some old men were talking about juvenile madness, and Li Yunliang on the other end of the phone also laughed after speaking.

"The situation of Aston Villa has not been ideal recently, if you don't increase the number of reinforcements, I'm afraid it will be difficult to surpass in the second half of the season, I carefully examined the situation of the team, the Yankees have basically not invested in the past few years, and they have sold the captain, the team lineup is very poor, I want to start bringing in players, the budget may be a bit big, if you don't bring in reinforcements, you have to play in the Championship for another year next year, which is not what we want to see."

"How big is big, is 200 million pounds enough?"

"UEFA has the principle of financial fairness, restricting the introduction of reinforcements, I can't spend 200 million if you give me at once, and ignoring the balance of payments and spending money indiscriminately will be punished by UEFA. Team spending UEFA divides it into 2 categories, transfer fees, player salaries, daily expenses and bonuses are calculated; Investments in stadium development, investment in youth players (including under-18 signings), fan development and taxation will not be counted. For example, after we buy Aston Villa and smooth out the deficit, we can lose 45 million euros in the first three years, including this season, and the third season is called the transition period, and the next three phases are also three seasons, but the maximum deficit allowed is reduced to 30 million euros. If you violate this principle, you will be punished, no transfer, European competition points deduction or ban from participation, etc., more headache, but there are countermeasures, in addition to the large amount of money for broadcast costs, we can also find commercial sponsorship, we can use the domestic companies we participate in to sponsor our jersey chest advertising, as well as jersey brand sponsorship, there are a lot of things that can be played in the middle, but you must be very careful, UEFA will also investigate. ”

"This money can't be spent, these foreigners can really do the whole thing, but what you said is very easy to solve, professional accountants will do a good job of accounting, we are already known as invisible people, the company in which we participate is not even clear to us Chinese, let alone these foreigners."

"This is what they Europeans call order, the so-called fairness, but in essence, such a system restricts the influx of huge amounts of capital to the nouveau riche to a certain extent, which is conducive to the development of small and medium-sized clubs, and objectively can also make the league maintain greater suspense and competitiveness. But foreigners are all gentlemen, thieves, all kinds of edge balls, drilling loopholes, the water is deep! Don't say that you give me 200 million now, even if it's 100 million, I'm worried about how to spend it, but I can't cower because I'm afraid of touching the rules, it's still necessary to bring in reinforcements, invest year by year, take shape in three years, and produce results in the fourth year. ”

"So what's going on with Aston Villa's $150 million debt, if they did, they wouldn't have broken the rules a long time ago."

"Didn't I say that the investment in stadium development, investment in young players (including signings of players under 18), fan development and taxation will not be calculated, and this 150 million is owed when the infrastructure is developed, and all of them are not counted."

"Yes, I know a lot, this is a good place to hone people, but it's a pity that I don't have such professionals around me to help you."

"No, I have a lot of helpers around me, and it turns out that the people in the club are also very professional, but Randy is reluctant to invest money in them, and they are tied up, and we are going to liberate them now."

"Yes, fight across the English Channel and liberate them!" The father and son laughed heartily on the phone, and the father and son ended the conversation in laughter, which also dispelled the unhappiness in Li Haolong's heart, but the father couldn't let her know about finding someone to check Xiaoxue anyway.
