Martin Merkley.

This man is fifty-four years old.

This person holds the same official position in the Sparta Prague city government as the director of China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. Because after the wave of liberalization in the Czech Republic, the shares owned by the state fell sharply. However, the shares of some important enterprises are still in the hands of the state, so there are similar departments that manage these shares.

Although the name is different from the SASAC on the Chinese side, it is similar in terms of rights.

Martin Merkley is responsible for managing these assets.

People are very spiritual.

Of course, Rist didn't have that face. The current Rist is just a slightly reasonable agent in Czech football. It's not the same as a figure of Merkley's calibre.

After all, his position is very important even in the Prague city government. If it was Rist who followed the normal procedure, it would take a while.

You have to go over and apply first, and then apply for a meeting. Step by step, even then it is unknown whether you will be able to meet an official of the level of Martin Merkley.

The efficiency of the government is the same regardless of the country. Of course, there are some small problems that are handled well.

Everyone will praise it.

Actually?

In fact, when encountering a slightly bigger problem, the efficiency is the same.

This time, however, Rist passed through Barwell Merkley. Martin Merkley is Barwell Merkley's Uncle Qin, so it was through Barwell Merkley that Lister found Martin Merkley.

Network. That's networking.

Everything else is.

Trying to expand your network is to be used at this time.

"Hello Lister."

Martin Merkley has a lot of power in the Prague city government. Because the Czech economy is not very good now, and the Prague city government does not have much income.

At present, half of the municipal government's revenue comes from the state-owned assets held by the municipal government. As a result, these shares owned by Martin Merkley account for a significant portion of the city's revenue.

As a result, Martin Merkley's department is very strong in the Prague city government.

"Hello, Mr. Merkley."

There are only two people on today's occasion.

Barwell Merkley just helped them get in touch. If it weren't for Barwell Merkley, Martin Merkley wouldn't have come at all. For him, there are many various shares in his hands, and the shares of Sparta Prague Club are the least important.

It doesn't generate much income for a year.

Since the reform of Sparta Prague, the city government has never received any money from Sparta Prague.

Dividends?

Sparta Prague simply did not have money to pay dividends all these years. Sparta Prague has been able to manage Sparta Prague without losing money in recent years.

These football clubs were able to gain a foothold with government investment. Now that there is no investment from the government, it is quite good to be able to keep the club from losing money.

For the first time this summer, Sparta Prague had that much income. But the city government still doesn't get any revenue, because the top brass of Sparta Prague make it clear that they don't want to share the money.

This made the city government quite annoyed.

The city government is also troubled by the stake in these football clubs.

There is no money, and there are too few shares in the hands now. The big shareholders don't want the government to meddle in the club's affairs, and the shares are like a chicken rib sitting there.

How to deal with it, they are also headaches.

So Merkley was delighted to hear that Prague wanted to buy the shares.

He is not a businessman.

And it was introduced by Barwell Merkley, so he didn't want to deal with Lister. After talking for a while, he said directly to Lister: "Lister, although the shares of Sparta Prague are in our hands, he is like a chicken rib. To be honest, it's useless. ”

Rist was a little surprised.

Although it was introduced by Barwell Merkley, the relationship between Martin Merkley and Rist should not be so good.

Such words can be said without hesitation.

Instead of worrying about Rist's thoughts, Merkley continued: "But you should know. That's where government agencies are most troublesome. Although it is a chicken rib share, no one will sell it at will. Because everyone is watching, if anyone sells it at a low price, then it will be a big trouble. The government's affairs are so troublesome, what to do when you look at it? ”

Martin Merkley spreads his hands.

The expression was helpless.

Rist slowly figured out some ideas. Martin Merkley simply said that Sparta Prague's stake in the current Prague Municipality was a chicken rib and had little effect.

They don't care at all.

In other words, Sparta Prague wants to buy back this share, and there is no problem at all. But Martin Merkley hinted to Rist that the price should not be too low.

Because there are a lot of people looking at this piece.

It's chicken ribs.

But it can't be handled arbitrarily.

The Czech political scene is in turmoil, and this kind of thing is even more difficult to deal with. This is especially true after the political situation has begun to stabilize initially. Martin Merkley's position is so important that there are many people staring at his position.

He was reluctant to tell the truth.

Thinking of this, Rist smiled slightly. Sparta Prague didn't think much about the price.

Thomas Chelny's idea was simple.

Take out this summer's income to buy this part of the shares. Putting this part of the stake in the club, with the strength of Thomas Cherny in the club, although this stake does not belong to the Cherny family, the control is basically in the hands of Thomas Chelny.

Together with all the shares of the Cherny family, the other minority shareholders are no longer of any use. Control of Sparta Prague was firmly in the hands of the Cherny family.

Anyway, it's not about the Cherny family's own money, so Thomas Cherny is definitely not afraid to spend money.

"Mr. Merkley, we will not let you have any trouble in this regard. Our club is willing to buy this part of the shares at the market price, and there will definitely be no shortage of money. Rest assured! ”

Rist said as he gave Merkley a red envelope.

Merkley wasn't embarrassed in any way. took the red envelope very calmly, and then counted it in front of Lister.

Eighty thousand dollars.

A total of $80,000 was put into the red envelope.

Bribe.

Naked bribery.

But neither of them is nothing. Corruption is the worst in any country when the political situation is in turmoil. Even if it is not a political turmoil, as long as an industry is in turmoil, then the industry will be the most serious when the unspoken rules are at its worst.

The same is true in the Czech Republic.

Corruption in the Czech Republic is now very serious, even to the point of shocking. All walks of life have their own unspoken rules, and all have varying degrees of corruption. It can be said that the current Czech politics is almost not clean from top to bottom.

And the most important thing in the Czech Republic is that this corruption is not easy to convict.

In 1995, the Czech Public Prosecutor's Office filed a total of 84 corruption cases. Many of them are even big cases that have caused a sensation in the Czech Republic, and many of the parties involved are cadres at the level of state ministers.

But the result?

The thunder and rain refer to the Czech anti-corruption case.

Of the 84 people, only nine were sentenced.

People of Rist's level have secret channels to know some things, and almost all of the 84 people who have been prosecuted by the procuratorate have some degree of corruption. In the case of Chinese law, they all have a large degree of unknown source of property. But as a result, most of them have escaped justice, and some have been able to continue to be politicians in a grand manner after passing through the courts.

Because of the political turmoil in the Czech Republic, all walks of life quickly formed their own chain of interests. They don't want anyone to come and get involved in their industry.

So it is difficult for the court to obtain evidence. There is political pressure and evidence in Zuihou, and many such cases in the Czech Republic are not resolved anyway.

It's like what happened to Rist this time. As long as Rist doesn't admit it, Merkley doesn't admit it, no one can catch it. Even if Merkley's $80,000 was taken out by the prosecutor's office, there is no evidence that it was Bribe by Lister, then it has nothing to do with Lister or even Merkley.

Therefore, it is necessary for the government to do this level of benefit. If you don't give money, you can't do anything at all. Rist just follows such unspoken rules.

Merkley looked at the eighty thousand dollars and nodded.

"Rister, the most I can do for you is to get the others to agree to sell the shares. But you have to come up with the market price, and it's hard for me to do anything lower than the market price. ”

Reesette nodded.

Now Czech football is suddenly making money. Sparta Prague sold players for a total of fifteen million dollars in the summer.

There must be someone above who wants a high price.

Thomas Cherny also said that he could give Rist 10 percent above the market price. Get Martin Merkley, just pay the market price.

"Mr. Merkley, you can rest assured in this regard. We will definitely pay according to the market price. ”

…………

Three days later, Sparta Prague signed a contract with the Prague Municipality.

Spartak Prague bought 17 percent of the shares of Spartak Prague from the Prague Municipality for $3.2 million.

At this point, the Cherny family became the largest shareholder of Sparta Prague. Sparta Prague itself holds 17 percent of the shares, making it the second largest shareholder.

Brothers settle accounts.

Fathers and sons should also settle accounts. And it was not with his father that Lister had to settle accounts, but with the Spartan Club Prague.

Sparta Prague's original budget amounted to $3.6 million.

Now that it's only $3.2 million, Rist will certainly have to take a sum of money from the middle.

Two hundred thousand dollars.

Rist received $200,000 in commissions from Sparta Prague.

That's what intermediaries are.

Of course, this intermediary and the bribe of $80,000 given to Merkley will not be written directly in the accounts of Sparta Prague. It's all written about hospitality and other expenses.

Zuihou turned into two hundred and eighty thousand dollars.

Smoothed out the accounts. None of this has anything to do with Lister.

Rist is making money anyway.

So much for.
