It's still the tarmac of Frankfurt International Airport, and it's the same location as last time, with an airport shuttle car parked behind it.

When the Boeing plane that Yang Huan borrowed from Hamad slowly landed on the runway of the airport again, Thomas Lake breathed a sigh of relief and immediately greeted him.

But this time, it was not Yang Huan who got off the plane.

The first to get out of the cabin was Dietmar Beiersdorf, the partner who had been ordered to go north to Hamburg, and as soon as he appeared, he immediately bowed his head to Thomas Lake, as if to say that everything was going well.

Immediately after him came an old man with gray hair, tall and slightly thin, who looked very good in spirit.

Thomas Lake recognized him as soon as he saw him.

This man was not very old, about sixty, and he was the chairman of Hamburg, Carl Edgar Kerhof.

Immediately after Kerkhoff came out a middle-aged German man in a gray suit, who should be about forty years old, but who looked very gentlemanly and looked close to Loew.

Oliver Kreuzer is a former Bayern Munich international and current director of football for Hamburg.

The two people who came out later, Thomas Lake, did not know each other, but Beiersdorf called before, and it was said that they were both members of the Hamburg board of directors and former Hamburg celebrities.

This also made Thomas Lake involuntarily think of what Yang Huan said before.

For some people, Mingsu is a tried-and-true panacea for all diseases.

If you encounter any trouble that can't be solved, find a famous hotel, yes!

But according to his understanding, in the past few years, Hamburg's poor management has also been due to this group of celebrities.

Let's not talk about the others, let's talk about the football director Kreuzer.

Born in Karlsruhe, he peaked at Bayern Munich in the 90s, then moved to Austria, then as director of football for Red Bull Salzburg, and a year later went to Graz, Austria, where he did a great job and won a league title for Graz.

In 2010, he was poached to Karlsruhe and the side who were relegated to the Bundesliga were hoping he could save the team.

But the result?

Three years later, Karlsruhe was relegated from the Bundesliga to the Bundesliga.

But interestingly, Oliver Kreuzer was not affected by his relegation in Karlsruhe, but instead moved to Hamburg as Hamburg's director of football, which really made Karl Edgar Kreuzer look anxious about his selection.

Some media even joked that it was because Kreuzer was handsome!

As soon as he saw this group of people come out, Thomas Lake immediately greeted him, and the latest chapter of the smiling demon was piled up in the distance.

"Hello guys, welcome to Frankfurt!"

Beiersdorf was immediately on the sidelines to introduce Thomas Lake.

It turned out that the other two he didn't know were Peter Nogley and Holger Silronimus.

Both of them were famous names of the Hamburg team, the core stars of the glory days of the past.

"Guys, please follow me!"

Following Thomas Lake's gesture, everyone present immediately walked to the nearby airport reception bus.

After getting into the car, the driver drove to the passage of the airport's Building 1.

Follow the passage and enter the Sheraton Hotel.

But this time, instead of going to Yang Huan's room, he took them directly to the hotel's high-level conference hall.

"Young Master Huan, we're here!"

Thomas Lake received the Hamburg management while calling Yang Huan.

In less than three minutes, I saw Yang Huan, accompanied by Kesh Harris, Long Wu and two lawyers, push open the door of the conference room and walk in with a smile.

Beiersdorf also immediately stood up and took the initiative to introduce everyone present to Yang Huan.

Yang Huan didn't despise this group of corpse vegetarian guys in his heart, but now he still had to smile, make a fool of himself, and even pretend to be a grand fist.

Hamburg chairman Kerkhoff was full of praise for Yang Huan's Southampton's away win over Bayern Munich two days ago, believing that the Saints will be the number one favorite to win the Champions League this season, and said that Hamburg is very much looking forward to the cooperation with Southampton.

And after a polite call, both sides quickly entered the main topic of negotiations.

Over the past few days, Thomas Lake has been in frequent contact with the management of Hamburg, but more often than not, with Kerkhoff and Kreuzer, who in this case were the brainchild of Hamburg's transformation into a joint-stock company.

It should be said that one of the two parties is willing to sell, and the other party is willing to buy, which can basically be said to be an instant hit.

But there are differences.

For example, how many shares do you want to sell?

According to the information Yang Huan obtained from Thomas Lake, Hamburg's original intention was to sell only 25% of the shares, and the offer was 30 million euros, but when Thomas Lake was talking, he suggested that 25% was too little.

He also said that Yang Huan hopes to get a higher share, and the price is easier to negotiate.

So, after several contacts between the two sides, Thomas Lake did quite well, talking about 35 percent of the shares, and Yang Huan offered 45 million euros, which was a cut higher than the previous offer.

But soon, the negotiations between the two sides got bogged down again over the number of board members.

The Hamburg side is only willing to give two places at most, but Yang Huan is naturally impossible to agree.

Because after holding 35% of Hamburg's shares, Yang Huan is the majority shareholder, if he can't speak on the club's board of directors and participate in the club's decision-making, what do you want these shares for?

Oh, is it possible to be like Thohir and give Berlusconi money to spend for nothing?

Therefore, Yang Huan's attitude is also very resolute.

In the end, under the mediation of Beiersdorf, the two sides made a compromise in the latest chapter of the online game White Emperor Musou.

Yang Huan's request is that since it has been changed to a joint-stock company, the club should hire a professional manager to reform and reorganize the company's management system, instead of being as chaotic as in the past.

And this professional manager has to be appointed by him!

In addition, Yang Huan also wanted to get involved in the team's transfer operation and the team's daily management, so he proposed that he should appoint a technical director by himself.

The previous proposal, after negotiations between the two sides, agreed to it.

But Hamburg did not agree to the latter proposal at first, but later Yang Huan proposed that Beiersdorf take the position, and Hamburg finally agreed to this choice.

In this way, although Yang Huan only has two seats on the board of directors, he has real power, not an empty name.

Of course, if the board of directors is interested in finding a fault, Yang Huan's two directorships will still suffer a lot.

But you can't become a fat man by eating in one bite, take your time!

After the two sides reached a preliminary intention, Kerkhoff proposed to meet Yang Huan in person.

So, this is the meeting in Frankfurt.

"Young Master Huan, I don't know when the 45 million euros will arrive?" Kerkhoff asked with concern.

This kind of thing is too common in professional football, so he is a little worried.

Even if Yang Huan is famous, who said that people with a good reputation will not play tricks?

Yang Huan smiled, "Don't worry, as long as we sign the contract, I will pay immediately!" ”

Hearing this news, the Hamburg directors were relieved and amazed.

This Chinese just has money, 45 million euros, and he took it out casually.

As if he was still afraid that the group of directors in Hamburg would not believe it, Thomas Lake, who was sitting on the side, also said loudly: "Young Master Huan's credit rating in our Deutsche Bank is very high, and the funds that can be used at any time exceed 100 million, and they can be paid at any time!" ”

100 million? Still more?

The group of Hamburg directors present suddenly burst into amazement again.

Oh my boy, that's too rich, isn't it?

Oh, by the way, I heard that he sold his stock to Apple not long ago, and it seems that he made 20 billion, no wonder he is so rich.

"Then I don't know how Young Master Huan will arrange the personnel?" Kerkhoff asked again.

Now that the technical director has chosen Dietmar Beiersdorf, what about the club's CEO?

Yang Huan smiled slightly and looked at Thomas Lake, "Oh, it's him!" ”

"Him?"

"Me?"

Not only was everyone surprised, but Thomas Lake himself.

It's no wonder that Young Master Huan had to prepare so many materials and conduct so many investigations by himself before.

It turned out that he wanted me to join the management of Hamburg!

"Young Master Huan, I'm ...... How can I do that? The Deutsche Bank elite was shocked.

"I've never been in contact with club management, I don't have any experience in this area, mad magician!"

"Yes, Young Master Huan!"

Oliver Cruzer, who had never spoken, spoke up.

Originally, after the club's shareholding system, he himself coveted this position, and now he naturally wants to fight for it.

"Running a football club is completely different from other industries, and I don't think it's a good idea for someone who is not familiar with the football industry to rush into football!"

"yes, Oliver is right, I don't think it's a good idea either!"

"He may be a fan, but he doesn't necessarily know how to run a team!"

The crowd in Hamburg was almost unanimous.

If they were to choose, it would be Oliver Kruzer.

But who is Yang Huan?

Niang Xipi, you guys have already spread all over the Bundesliga, and the management is so low, God knows how you usually do it?

If I can't install one of my people in the most critical position of the club's operation, then I'm afraid I will be cheated by you, and I will help you celebrate.

Besides, Beiersdorf may not be able to fully trust it.

On the contrary, Thomas Lake, who participated in this acquisition, is very familiar with Hamburg, and he has no roots in Hamburg, Yang Huan is his biggest backing, so he is more trustworthy.

"You're right, he's really not familiar with club management!"

Yang Huan still smiled, "But what we want now is not someone who is familiar with football and the operation of the club, but a person who can help the team complete the management reform, I think, with Thomas's strength, he has it!" ”

Just kidding, the top students of the Faculty of Business Administration of the University of Frankfurt, with this academic qualification, are enough to kill everyone present!

And looking at him from Allianz Insurance, to PricewaterhouseCoopers, one of the big four accounting firms, and then to Deutsche Bank, almost every time he jumped from a job to a cross-industry and cross-field job, but he adapted quite well.

Now it's just that he wants to take charge of a football club on behalf of Yang Huan, and there is no problem.

Besides, he can't do it, isn't there Yang Huan behind him?

When the time comes, draw a few people from Southampton and transfer them to assist him, what else can't be done?

"In short, this candidate is determined by me, you don't need to discuss it anymore, just Thomas Lake, if something goes wrong with him, all the responsibility belongs to me, I will carry it!"

Yang Huan's last words were very categorical.

At this time, if anyone dares to come out and speak against the tune, they will stand on the opposite side of Yang Huan.

With Young Master Huan's personality, whoever makes me unhappy, I will make him even more unhappy!

So, the Hamburg board of directors looked at each other, and then Beiersdorf was silent, apparently knowing which side he should be on.

Krof, Kreuzer and others were embarrassed.

They can see that this young master Huan is not a good stubble!

Looking at him in front of the stick, it was clear that the carriage and horse were telling themselves that he was not the kind of layman who was at the mercy of others.
