Chapter 61: The Wedding
On the first weekend of June, a chapel in Cambridge Union.
Under the auspices of the old priest, the priest gave a few sacred words and the newlyweds solemnly said "Yes, I do", which officially united the hearts of the newlyweds.
The wedding was simple and not many people attended. The parents of both sides, plus the close friends and relatives of both sides, these are all the witnesses, and Lin Sen and Boya are also among them. Because the husband and wife are their mutual friends Tang Hua and Cinderella. When the two kissed affectionately under the watchful eye of the priest, the church burst into applause.
Fate is a wonderful thing.
From knowing Cinderella, to knowing Tang Hua, to getting married to Boya, and now watching his two friends finally come together, all this happened naturally, the so-called fate, you can't touch it, you can't see it, but it can always appear at the most appropriate time and place, and then, you have to believe in the existence of fate.
A warm little hand quietly touched Lin Sen's hand, and then got into his palm, making him subconsciously hold it tightly.
One of the most important reasons for choosing to go to Madrid is that because of Boya, he had to give up going to Madrid, and Lin Sen had to consult Boyaa first. From beginning to end, as Lin Sen expected, Boya did not have the slightest complaint, but the absence of complaints does not mean that Lin Sen can be at ease.
The wedding ended, it was an equally simple wedding banquet, the venue was in the rented house of Tang Hua in Cambridge, as a best friend, Boya and Ariel, who was finally willing to show up, naturally went to find the bride Ariel, while Lin Sen and Tang Hua squatted with a glass of red wine and sat in a corner.
"How does it feel? The groom's officer. Lin Sen asked with a smile.
Tang Hua smiled a little shyly and did not answer.
"Getting married means that you have to pay attention, it means that you can't go to bars at will in the future, it means that you can't ask for other girls' phone numbers in the future, and it means that you have to report to work if you don't go home at night......" Lin Sen quipped, but after speaking, he himself felt nonsensical, "However, it seems that there is no need to tell you this." ”
It's not seeming, it's really unnecessary. Lin Sen already thinks that he is "homely" enough, but compared to Tang Hua, he is still a small thing, of course, he is a technical nerd.
"Speaking of which, I still feel sorry for Cinderella." Tang Hua said, "Since I came here last year, I have spent a lot less time with her, and this honeymoon ...... Most of them can only be owed temporarily. ”
Tang Hua was telling the truth. Since taking over Cambridge United, Cinderella has resigned from his Chinese husband's concept of marrying a chicken and a dog to accompany Tang Hua to Cambridge United, but Tang Hua has given himself a job, of course, Tang Hua can find many reasons, a new team, a new job, a new environment...... Everything was new, and Tang Hua didn't allow himself to adapt to it slowly. And this summer, Cambridge United has just been promoted to the first division, and Tang Hua needs to deal with even more things than last year......
Lin Sen looked at Tang Hua, who had some guilt in his expression, and sighed in his heart, he was not only Tang Hua's friend, but also Cinderella's friend, from this point of view, at this time, it seemed that he should say what his father had said to him before, and tell the other party that he should cherish Cinderella, after all, work is just work, but how can he say it at this time?
"If you owe it, you must remember it." In the end, Lin Sen just said, "Moreover, interest must be calculated." ”
"Of course." Tang Hua smiled.
"Okay, today is your big day, don't talk about that." Lin Sen raised his glass and took a sip of wine, "How is the team now?" ”
"It's fine." Tang Hua nodded, "Last season's team can basically be retained, some old players whose contracts expire may have to leave, and the team needs some fresh blood, in fact, it is still an old problem in the final analysis." Speaking of this, Tang Hua smiled helplessly, "No money." ”
Lin Sen smiled, this problem in Tang Hua's mouth is not a common problem in almost all small clubs, and this problem is enough to lead to many problems.
"I've been watching the video of the League One game lately, and according to the current Cambridge United lineup, relegation, I am confident, but if I go further, I am not sure." Tang Hua also took a sip of wine and said, "Why don't you try to upgrade?" Lin Sen joked.
"No kidding." Tang Hua smiled bitterly.
Dreams have limits, and some have foundations. A person can stand on the ground and dream of one day being able to go to the moon, but before that, he is bound to make a lot of preparations, which require hard work, sweat, and time, otherwise, it is a fairy tale, and real people cannot live in fairy tales.
The reason why Cambridge United was able to be promoted in the first season of entering the professional league is due to Tang Hua's contribution and the team's efforts, but if you think that this is all there is to it, and then dream of a miracle repeating itself, it is wrong, and it is ridiculously wrong. One of the most objective conditions for the promotion of Cambridge United is the particularity of the English Second League.
As the bottom of the professional league, this means that there is only a thin line between the League Two league and the non-professional, and many League Two clubs were actually non-professional clubs a few seasons ago, that is, the gap between them and Cambridge United is actually a little more League Two game experience. Of course, this is also a great advantage, but this advantage is not enough for them to be condescending in the face of Cambridge United, and conversely, Cambridge United is not at all without the ability to fight back.
So, when there is a possibility, if something happens, it may be surprising, but not surprising enough, and last season's Cambridge United only made that possible.
"There's one thing you probably don't know." After a moment of silence, Lin Sen said.
"You mean Boya taking a stake in the club?" Tang Hua said.
"You know that?" Lin Sen was stunned for a moment, because Boya had told him before that her shareholding in Cambridge United was carried out in secret, except for a few people who handled the matter, not to mention outsiders, even within Cambridge United, there were many people who did not know, only knew that someone had invested in the club.
"Dave told me about it." Tang Hua nodded.
Dave, referring to Dave Dougan, president of Cambridge United. It is important to mention here that Dave Dougan is the chairman of Cambridge United, but he is not the owner of Cambridge United. Of course, Boya bought part of the shares from Paul Barry, the owner of Cambridge United, and he couldn't have been unaware. Speaking of which, when it comes to the acquisition of the club's shares, Dave Dougan originally didn't need to talk to Tang Hua as the head coach, but now he told Tang Hua, so it seems that ......
"Looks like he admires you." Lin Sen said with a smile.
Tang Hua smiled and chose to acquiesce, for this, he doesn't need to be modest, it was he who brought Cambridge United to League One, although he has no right to meddle in these things at the top, he is fully qualified to know.
"But that's not what I'm trying to talk about." Lin Sen suddenly shook his head and smiled.
"Nice to meet you, Lin."
Tang Hua had already left, as the host, he was not only a guest of Lin Sen, and not long after Tang Hua left, an old man with plain clothes and white hair came to Lin Sen, and then took the initiative to extend his hand very enthusiastically.
"I'm glad to meet you, Mr. President." Lin Sen smiled and reached out to shake each other's hands.
The person who came was none other than the chairman of Cambridge United, Dave Dougan.
"It's been a pleasure to meet you." Dave smiled and said, "You're a big coach. ”
Dave's words are a bit joking, but they are not exaggerated, Dave is indeed a chairman, but he is only the chairman of Cambridge United, out of Cambridge United, maybe not many people will know him, and although Lin Sen is just a coach, but looking at the whole of England and even Europe, I am afraid that not many people will not know Lin Sen.
"Don and I are very good friends, so, please don't be polite, Mr. President." Lin Sen said.
"Old Dave." Dave Dougan said, "It's what my friends call me, and I love the affectionate name. If you don't mind, call me Old Dave. ”
Lin Sen smiled and nodded.
"Don often mentions you to me, and he says that without you there would be no him, so speaking of which, I should also thank you, because if it weren't for Tang, maybe we would still be in Class A now." Dave Dougan said, and then he laughed at himself, "But I'm ashamed that although the team is now promoted to the first division, I may be the most shabby chairman of League One right now." ”
"Money is important, of course, though, old Dave." "I think having a team full of hope is the greatest asset of a football club. ”
"That's right." Dave Dougan laughed, "But don't you think it would be better to have a hopeful team with money?" ”
With that, Dave Dougan winked at Linson at his eyes, which were a little small compared to his stature.
All right.
Lin Sen smiled bitterly in his heart, now that he understood, the old man in front of him was not so simple as "knowing" him at all, obviously, he had also gotten the news.
Just before coming to Tang Hua's wedding, a sudden idea, coupled with a few nights of discussion with Boya, made Lin Sen's idea a practical decision, that is, Boya will increase the capital injection of Cambridge United, not only that, Boya has already issued an offer to Paul Barry, the current largest shareholder of Cambridge United, to buy all the remaining shares of Cambridge United.
In other words, if all this is successfully completed, then, Boyaa and no, Lin Sen will become the new owner of Cambridge United.
Because, Boya's acquisition is in the name of Lin Sen. r1152
