PS1: Continue to ask for recommendation votes here, free books don't need to spend money, and it should be okay to give more recommendation votes, right? Thank you here~

PS2: Let's talk about the book friend group here, the group number is three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, nine, verifies that the answer is NTR knight, well, that's it.

While Vieri and his teammates celebrated the goal on the sidelines, Zhuang Mingge, who had come to watch the game, was reviewing the report submitted by his subordinates in the VIP box at Frankie Stadium.

"Lazio is drinking to quench his thirst." Looking at the information in his hand, Zhuang Mingge frowned and said, "It is true that the lavish spending in the transfer market in the past few years has greatly overdrawn Lazio's finances, so that they have no extra money to pay the players at all; However, this does not mean that using club shares to pay players is a good move. If not handled properly, Longo's move is likely to further deepen Lazio's financial crisis and even become the trigger for its bankruptcy! โ€

To illustrate here, the latest information received by Zhuang Mingge is about a policy that Lazio's acting president, Longo, is planning to implement: in the face of the dilemma of not being able to pay all the staff, including players and coaches, on time, Mr. Longo, who replaced the lawsuit-ridden Cragnoti as Lazio's president, is now considering paying the same value of club shares to the employees below in order to replace some of the arrears of wages.

"Antonio, you're not wrong at all." Little Groz, who was born in a financial family, naturally had the most say on this matter, so she nodded approvingly and said, "Maybe this can indeed get rid of the club's lack of cash flow in a short period of time, but this is not a long-term solution after all." On the one hand, because Lazio's current situation is not optimistic, not everyone is willing to accept the conditions of stock for salary; On the other hand, if Lazio's share price continues to decline in the stock market, the players may sell their Lazio shares to protect their own interests, thus further accelerating the decline of their share price. โ€

"As a result, as the club's share price continues to fall and the situation deteriorates, the major creditors of Lazio and its parent company, the Cirio Group, will surely have doubts about their ability to repay. Under the influence of this sentiment, they will inevitably not be comfortable with Lazio slowly repaying their debts, but will ask them to repay their debts early, so that Lazio, which is already short of cash flow, will be saddled with huge debts that can make them bankrupt immediately. Speaking of this, Groz Jr. couldn't help but shudder, "So, it seems that Longo's strategy is likely to ruin the last chance of Lazio, which has hoped to rely on installments and savings to get out of trouble, to avoid bankruptcy and liquidation." โ€

"Lazio really chose the wrong person to be their acting president this time." Zhuang Mingge sighed and said, "If no one is willing to take over Lazio and let Longo test his whimsical ideas, then next season, it is very likely that we will not be able to see Lazio in Serie A." โ€

For Zhuang Mingge himself, he naturally does not want to see Lazio, which has an important position in Italian football, fall, because this will inevitably have a huge negative impact on the prestige and competitiveness of Italian football. Although this crisis can also be solved by supporting another club to take the top position, it is not an easy task to cultivate a club that can rival Lazio in terms of influence, and the whole process requires enough glory and time to precipitate. You must know that in Zhuang Mingge's previous life, even Manchester City, which was backed by the Abu Dhabi consortium, was bent on becoming a top giant, and they failed to be recognized by people after spending countless pounds, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.

In order to avoid the bankruptcy and liquidation of Lazio, which would affect this worst-case scenario, Zhuang Mingge felt that what he needed to do now was to find a rich buyer for the Blue Eagles and let Lazio get out of the current crisis.

Just as Zhuang Mingge and Groz Jr. were talking about the possible impact of Longo's emergency policy on Lazio's economic situation, the score on the pitch changed again: in the 31st minute, Vincent's continuous emergency stops on the left side accelerated to shake Pancaro, who was defending him, dizzy and then got up and crossed the ball, Vieri, who was receiving in the penalty area, ignored Mihajlovich's interference, and sent the ball into the gate in front of him with a lion swing, 2-0!

"Tsk, if we hadn't been poached by the damn Milanese about Crespo and Glendoni, how would it be your turn to be so rampant?" Looking at Vieri, who ran to the sidelines to celebrate his goal, Stankovic thought to himself with great unhappiness.

However, Stankovic also thought about it in his heart, of course he knew that with Lazio's current strength, it was very unrealistic to want to beat Fiorentina in a head-to-head confrontation. After all, compared to Lazio, who lost a lot of key players and made a lot of mistakes in the transfer market, Fiorentina, who added strong reinforcements such as Ballack and Albertini in the summer, are clearly better in terms of overall strength.

After the game entered the half-time period, Mancini, who had been struggling with what to do on the sidelines, made adjustments. Corradi, who had been inactive throughout the first half under Lucio's marking, came off the pitch and Inzaghi Jr. came off the bench; Dejan Stankovic moved to the middle, with Roberto Mancini believing that Fiore was not good enough to take on the role of playmaker in midfield.

As for Pancaro, who was completely blown up by Vincent's unpredictable speed and rhythm changes, Mancini, who was short of major generals, could only say that he was powerless. After all, Lazio suffered a lot in the summer, and the depth of the bench was greatly affected as a result, and it was difficult for Mancini, with limited resources, to find a better suited player to play at right-back than Pancarlo.

So, although Lazio made the change and set up Claudio Lรณpez in the 58th minute for Inzaghi Jr. to pull one back, the Sard's struggles were rendered useless by the deadly danger on the right flank, combined with Vieri's strong deterrent in the box. With Vieri pinned down and the strong firepower of his team-mates behind him, Inzaghi and substitute Diego Milito scored goals each in the 67th and 83rd minutes respectively, and the gap between Lazio and Lazio, who had managed to recover, was widened again.

Seeing the huge gap in strength between the two sides, Mancini also gave up his plan to make a last-ditch effort, replaced Stankovic and Lopes and other main players, hung up the white flag and took the initiative to announce that he would give up the game.

In this way, when all 90 minutes of play time had passed, the score was finally fixed at 4-1, and Fiorentina, who played in full force, easily defeated Lazio at the Stadio Frankie, adding a new touch to the grievances between the two teams.
