Chapter III: Investigation
The two talked for a while, and Yin Sen rushed to the gate of the school, still speculating in his heart about what Qian Bai was looking for him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Coming out of the gate, Yin Sen found Qian Bai's car next to the sentry box at first sight, although Yin Sen's memory is not good, but after all, he sat in the other party's car a few times a few months ago, and his personality 787878 number was remembered by him, because Yin Sen felt from the beginning that 78 was so homophonic with Qian Bai.
The rear window rolled down.
"Assen, get in the car"
It was Qian Bai's voice.
Yin Sen was given an empty seat in the back row, and Wu Dajun, the co-pilot, took the initiative to greet Yin Sen one by one, and the two were also acquaintances.
Qian Bai: "Haha, it's really not easy to find you, if you didn't answer the phone last night, I should go to your house to block you." ”
Yin Sen: "You don't know where my home is"
Qian Bai said proudly: "Who said I don't know, didn't you fill in the information in school?"
Yin Sen: "I didn't expect you to have this hand"
Qian Bai: "That's not because I'm afraid of you having an accident"
Yin Sen: "Okay, thank you, let's get down to business." ”
Qian Bai said excitedly: "Asen, our chance has come!" ”
Such a clueless sentence made Yin Sen stunned when he heard it.
Yin Sen: "What chance?" ”
Qian Bai: "This ..... army, you come and talk to Ah Sen first." ”
Yin Sen was speechless.
The car had already started and was on the road, Wu Dajun adjusted the chair to an appropriate position, turned around, and said to Yin Sen seriously: "Coach Yin, last time Mr. Qian came to the school, in fact, he had already talked about this matter at the meeting, that is, the matter of registering the team with the Football Association."
Yin Sen was surprised: "Could it be that our team has been established, why is there no news in the school at all?"
Wu Dajun: "Hehe, this is not yet, at that time, we analyzed, directly set up a team, recruit a team, and then slowly climb up from the secondary league, the cycle is too long, and the capital investment is too large, so after the group's high-level discussion, the preliminary decision to acquire a team"
Yin Sen nodded, he knew all these things, he also participated in the last meeting, what he didn't know was just how it went, he waited for Wu Dajun's next step, and Qian Bai took a nap.
Wu Dajun paused for a moment and continued to whisper: "Some time ago, our target teams were mainly concentrated in the teams of the Chinese Super League, so that we can directly enter the top league as soon as next season, but from the current situation of the Chinese Super League, the last two are already obvious, and the other teams will continue to stay in the Chinese Super League next season. I feel that the cost is too large, on the contrary, because the advertising and activity income of the midstream team is not high, although it will not put the whole group in a difficult situation, but for the business in charge of Mr. Qian, the risk is too great. ”
Wu Dajun said very slowly, and he also said very carefully, Yin Sen didn't understand much about the operational level, but after Wu Dajun's analysis, Yin Sen also knew that after all, no one's money fell from the sky, and as an enterprise to survive, financial pressure is the primary consideration.
Wu Dajun: "So then we turned our attention to the second-tier teams that had the potential to break into the top flight."
"Looks like there's something to gain," Yin Sen interjected.
Wu Dajun smiled and said that Yin Sen had guessed correctly.
"Although the First Division is three-quarters of the way through the schedule, the competition for the top two is uncertain, and five or six teams have a chance to break out in the final rounds"
Yin Sen was puzzled: "What do you mean, do we have to wait until the situation is clear?" ”
Wu Dajun hadn't answered yet, but Qian Bai, who had just closed his eyes and recuperated, spoke first.
"When the situation is clear, then the price will not be right."
After thinking about it, Yin Sen said: "What do you mean, we want to pick one of these teams to sign first?" ”
Wu Dajun and Qian Bai nodded at the same time.
Yin Sen: "So should you have evaluated these teams?" ”
Qian Bai: "Of course, you can't joke with anyone, although there is a risk of being completely lost, but we have gone through considerable analysis of these teams, and even purchased internal data from Macau Gaming Company, and our professional evaluation team including actuaries with book titles has calculated the extreme probability of the team that may win in the end."
Yin Sen seems to understand these esoteric terms of Qian Bai, but he believes that the Qian Group's contribution in this regard should not be too stingy.
Yin Sen: "And the result?" ”
Wu Dajun said: "There are three teams with a close chance of winning, Jiangcheng Sun 40%, Fuding Iron and Steel 30%, Qiancheng Lanxiang 27%, and Jiangcheng Sun We communicated in the early stage that the other party has determined that it will not be sold and will not accept shares."
Qian Bai: "Hmph, I don't think I don't want to sell, it's that I see that the situation is good, and when I get into the top league, I'll double the sale, Sun, I know the boss, a mercenary person"
looked hateful, making Yin Sen wonder if that person owed Qian Bai money.
Qian Bai: "Therefore, things are often always very tangled, according to the current situation, the next two teams may only be able to fight for one place, then there must be one team that cannot advance, this is the biggest risk we have to face." ”
Yin Sen: "It's very tangled"
Wu Dajun: "What's more coincidental is that if the optimistic prediction is that the next few rounds of strong teams can win, then before the final round, the difference between the two teams will be within three points, and the last round is a contest between these two teams, so ....."
Yin Sen: "Can't you watch a few more rounds?" ”
Qian Bai shook his head: "The current businessman is very fine, you think everyone is as upright as me"
When he said this, he touched his chest with his hands, quite devout to the saints.
Yin Sen and Wu Dajun glanced at each other and were speechless for a while.
Qian Bai: "If they can't win in a few rounds, the points will change, and then the situation will be different, if you lose the opportunity to compete, then this price, you know"
Yin Sen: "So they gave you a deadline?" ”
Qian Bai: "Hey, both teams do have the intention of selling, but the time for us to make a bid for them is at the latest this weekend"
Yin Sen: "Is there a league this week?" ”
Wu Dajun: "Yes, both teams have separate ball games, and today we went to Qiancheng to watch the game." Qiancheng Lanxiang's game"
Yin Sen was speechless and said: "The name of Qiancheng Lan Xiang sounds so strange, it can't be that Lan Xiang, right?" ”
Wu Dajun: "No, it's not that Xiang...."
Qian Bai: "It doesn't matter, when the time comes, the name will be changed to be over, the problem now is, we have to determine the goal"
Yin Sen looked at Qian Bai: "Then what?" Let me see it? ”
Qian Bai: "Huh? ”
Yin Sen: "You're not sick, of course you have to find someone who is familiar with this league, who is familiar with these two teams, what can I know by watching a game?" ”
Qian Bai: "I've asked all of them, didn't I tell you about those probabilities just now?" But I'm not at ease, the last two games of Qiancheng and Fuding, you are not here, I watched it with Lao Wu, this last game, I must let you watch me before I can rest assured"
Yin Sen: "Fuding, where is that?"
Wu Dajun: "They will play away games, we don't think we can go, we can watch the live broadcast"
Yin Sen: "Oh"
Yin Sen asked: "Hey, Boss Qian, if we choose the wrong one at that time, won't your money be smashed in your hands?" ”
Qian Bai: "If you really choose the wrong one, then you will consider yourself unlucky, but it is not a full loss, at least the team is still there, it's a big deal to start from the secondary league, with you, at most a year later"
Yin Sen rolled his eyes and said, "You really have confidence in me"
Qian Bai: "Of course, I have confidence in my own vision!" Let's not talk about this for now, Lao Wu, you can tell Ah Sen about the general situation of this Qiancheng Lanxiang first."
"En" Wu Dajun responded, and then took out a few materials from the bag he carried, and then began to talk to Yin Sen...
The car was speeding forward on the highway, and Qian Bai entered sleep mode again in the car, while Yin Sen listened to Wu Dajun's introduction.
For him, the situation in the Super League was not very clear, let alone the second league, and the names of those teams were unheard of, but he listened hard, and two hours passed.
When the car got off the highway, Qian Bai had already woken up.
"It's almost there, isn't it?" Qian Bai asked
"There is still half an hour, Mr. Qian" replied to the driver Wang Ze, Yin Sen recognized, the first time I saw it in a bar, and then I saw it sporadically a few times.
"Oh"
Yin Sen asked, "Let's go to the stadium now, there are still games at this time?" ”
Qian Bai smiled: "How is it possible, the game is going to be in the afternoon, let's take you to their training base first, it's not easy to come here, of course it's a full set, right?"
Qian Bai and Yin Sen squeezed their eyebrows, and their style of speaking was always helpless.
Wu Dajun introduced in a timely manner: "Lanxiang's training base is in the west of the city, which is rebuilt from idle land in a small community, so the area is not large, but the relevant settings are perfect, and the road is not bad."
Qian Bai: "Although the economic level of Qiancheng is much worse than that of S City, it is still better than your Yongcheng, especially in the west of the city, which is blessed with unique natural resources, and it can be regarded as an inch of land." ”
Yin Sen: "You mean, the boss is rich?" ”
Qian Bai: "Their boss's surname is Song, he used to make a fortune doing decoration, and later he did real estate by himself, and the community of the training base was developed by their company itself, which can be regarded as idle use."
Yin Sen sighed: "There seem to be a lot of companies engaged in football in China, and there seem to be a lot of real estate backgrounds."
Qian Bai: "The trend of the times, the Qian Group also has real estate, but it belongs to my brother, he and Lao Song have known each other for a long time, it turns out that Lao Song always runs to my brother"
Yin Sen asked, "Oh, what?" ”
"Decoration, come to run the business!"
"Oh"
He and my sister-in-law are half relatives, and real estate was also booming in those years, so my brother also made a good favor, and the business was not less, and then Lao Song became bigger, and he also did real estate, which was once very big, and he made several pots of gold, otherwise how could there be money wasted on football, which burns money, and not everyone is willing to do charity. ”
The previous sentence is very good, and the last sentence of Qian Bai began to be a little stinky and beautiful again. However, there were other people in the car, and Yin Sen didn't say anything, just smiled.
"Since the second half of last year, real estate has gone downhill, you may not know, do real estate, develop a project, bank loans account for a large proportion, and then wait for the house to build to a certain extent to start selling, and then use the sales proceeds and mortgage money to pay bank interest, the other part is used to pay for the project, but once the house can't be sold, then this cycle will not work, the capital chain will be broken, not only the bank to force the debt, the construction unit will also come to ask for money, then I saw the situation in my brother's place, at that time, The developers are also very miserable. ”
Yin Sen: "Then your brother?" ”
Qian Bai: "He arrived okay, mainly not so greedy, the house was sold early, and then the property market was sluggish, and some of the houses were trapped, but most of the heads have come back, plus the group's usual fund management is still relatively scientific, and it can be regarded as surviving, but the old Song is not good, it was originally a halfway monk, never fell, at that time he had several projects there at the same time, and then the capital chain was broken, the bank did not give loans, and people refused to mortgage the house, and then found my brother, I want my brother to guarantee the loan in the name of the business. ”
Yin Sen: "Your brother agreed?" ”
Qian Bai: "I didn't agree, but it helped him a lot, my brother helped him mediate between the bank and the government for a while, and he helped him get through the most difficult time, Lao Song is still kind of grateful and always remembers my brother's goodness, so we talked to him about the acquisition of the team this time, he is a better talker, and it can be regarded as a kind of fate."
Yin Sen understood the background of this matter.
Qian Bai: "But in my opinion, he has lost a lot of money in the past few years, and he doesn't want to engage in this football, after all, this industry spends a lot of money."
….
"It's here!" Wu Dajun said.
The car got off the main road, turned into a small road that was not spacious, and at the end of the road, Yin Sen saw a gate, on the top of the gate was written a few big characters of Lanxiang Football Training Base, as well as the payment, which seemed to be a celebrity's Mobao.
The driver and the doorman explained, and the door was opened.
Wu Dajun: "At this time, they should still be training"
The car moved on.
Yin Sen suddenly thought of something, so he asked Qian Baidao: "Then you talk about the acquisition, will it affect the team's next performance?" ”
Qian Bai: "The confidentiality work should be done well enough, but it is not excluded that someone may leak secrets, after all, this matter is still quite big, as for whether it affects the players, I can't say for sure, I am also most worried about this matter, if the team cannot advance due to our reasons, it will really be empty."
Yin Sen: "That's not it, how can the team be so fragile, everyone is professional"
Qian Bai: "Borrow your auspicious words"
Yin Sen: "How can I listen to your tone, it seems that you have already decided to acquire this Lan Xiang, isn't there an alternative, what is it called Fuding?" ”
Qian Bai: "There's no way, because of the above relationships, the acquisition can be regarded as helping Lao Song again, my brother also spoke, if you can, just do a personal favor, so if everyone is half and half, Lan Xiang's priority is higher"
Yin Sen: "Oh, things are so complicated in the mall"
Qian Bai: "Hehe, yes, I also want to be like you, mixing with football all day long, and traveling if you have nothing to do."
Yin Sen: "Okay, you're coming"
Qian Bai: "I have to have that talent!" ”
I have to say that Qian Bai has a talent for speaking, and when he said this, coupled with his complaining expression, everyone in the whole car laughed.
Wu Dajun's estimate was right, in the center of the training ground, the players were in a circle, listening to the middle of the person explaining something, all of them were wearing a style of jersey, light green body and yellow sleeves, there was no unusual pattern, only the word Lan Xiang was written on the back.
Qian Bai: "The words of our jersey, I've already thought about it, Qian's sports, how about it, it's good."
When Yin Sen heard Qian Bai's words, he didn't say anything, just a name, whatever it is called, people even called Lan Xiang, it would never be more ugly, but in his heart, he felt that this name was so similar to the name of an amateur team sponsor.
The training on the field is according to the step-by-step, Qian Bai's visit to these strangers did not cause much turmoil, the players have dispersed, may be the reason for the game in the afternoon, and there is no arrangement of high-intensity confrontation training, Yin Sen saw that the players were divided into several groups, and there were different coaches arranging different training tasks. In short, Yin Sen still felt it, and the players were still quite serious in training, which made Yin Sen have a lot of good feelings about the Lan Xiang team who had not had much contact.
Several people walked around the base, Wu Dajun and Yin Sen walked in front, Wang Ze walked behind, and Qian Bai was at the end, he was talking to Lao Song on the phone just now.
Wu Dajun: "The coaching level of the team is average, but it is relatively stable, so the team's results have basically not had big ups and downs. ”
Yin Sen: "Oh"
Wu Dajun: "The team is generally based on defensive counterattacks, but the strength of the strikers is average, but the defense is still good, although it is a secondary league and there is no comparison, but the league has been going on so far, the total number of goals conceded by the Lanxiang team is the least in the league team, but the number of goals is ranked outside the top ten"
Yin Sen asked, "How many teams are there in the league?" ”
"Generally there are 16 teams participating, the first two and the last two substitutes, you know that."
Yin Sen nodded.
Sixteen teams, but the total number of goals ranked outside the tenth, this is a typical team with weak offense and strong defense, and it is indeed a bit difficult to be the head coach if it can hold on until now and have the hope of qualifying.
Yin Sen: "They don't have academy, right?" ”
Wu Dajun: "Yes." ”
"Why don't you go find a few better strikers?"
"Judging from the information, I have found a few before, but they all played badly, to be honest, the really good strikers in the country will not come to such a second-class league team, and the strikers of the lower grade have very few ability to decide the game, the airborne troops are not the fundamental solution after all, so I also agree with Mr. Qian's opinion on this point, we must cultivate ourselves"
Yin Sen also agreed with Wu Dajun's statement, and the youth training system is, of course, quite important.
Yin Sen asked: "How does this base compare with teams of the same grade?" ”
Wu Dajun: "Most of them are about the same, in terms of the variety, length and flexibility of the turf, it is quite good among the bases of many minor league teams. ”
Yin Sen: "This..."
Wu Dajun's words, so that Yin Sen was a little surprised, just in the distance to see the training ground to not feel anything, walked in, in fact, Yin Sen is a little disappointed, long-term abroad, he has seen a lot of large and small football fields, in comparison, even more than ten years ago the grass of the St. Paul Stadium is better than the one in front of him, not to mention that the turf varieties may be different due to the climatic zone, but this grass of different lengths, most of them have been dry, and near the middle circle of the stadium, there are actually two large pieces of bare.
"That's all good, isn't it? Our school's..."
Wu Dajun smiled, and seemed to sigh a little: "It really can't be compared with our school, in the construction of the stadium, the Qian family is indeed what I have seen willing to spend a lot of money to invest, which is also the reason why I am willing to follow Mr. Qian, and the secondary league has just come from the change, and the development is actually fast, but in the training base, the situation in front of me is indeed the real situation, and I have seen other teams more or less, it's the same." ”
Yin Sen: "What about the stadium?" ”
Wu Dajun: "It will be better, after all, there will be a special management team, but no matter from the perspective of lawn management, pest control, or drainage system design, heating system, it is still incomparable with other countries, this gap is still very difficult to shorten in a short time, lack of people..."
Wu Dajun's exclamation made Yin Sen a little moved, although Wu Dajun was not from football, but what he said just now made Yin Sen feel that he should have spent a lot of time doing research since he entered this industry, and this last sigh is the anxiety of the current situation of domestic football as a football person.
Yin Sen: "It's always going to get better, isn't our school an example?" ”
Wu Dajun smiled slightly: "Yes, as long as the football level is up, these will slowly get better..."
As soon as he finished chatting about this, Qian Bai in the back rushed up and said to the two: "Old Song, this kid is not here, I originally wanted to come over and fight with him to get more time, even if it was to give him more time, but now it seems that he should have deliberately avoided it."
Wu Dajun: "Mr. Qian, what should I do next?"
Qian Bai: "That's no way, that's it, by the way, Asen, how are you looking?" ”
Yin Sen replied: "I have watched everything I can see, and Angkor also gave me a general introduction, let's watch the game in the afternoon."
Qian Bai: "That's okay, let's go, I watched the game in the afternoon, let's talk about it, I know a restaurant in the west of the city, the firewood turkey is good, let's hurry up and try it, Xiao Wang, you call to make a reservation first, don't run out of places by then"
After speaking, he sighed again: "I finally know what it's like to be resigned to fate!" ”
Wu Dajun and Yin Sen understood what he meant, and they couldn't help but sigh.
