"It's incredible, Adidas is sold, it's definitely the best opportunity for other sports brands to grow themselves! What are Umbro, Puma, and Nike thinking? After learning that other sports brands were not interested in participating in the game, Zhuang Mingge was a little relieved, he was not worried about the consortium operating in other industries to compete with him, after all, interlacing is like a mountain, and it is a very risky thing to rush into this circle without knowing anything about a certain field, after all, not everyone is Hammer (Armand Hammer, a business wizard, has outstanding achievements in pharmaceutical, wine, cattle breeding, petroleum and other industries), There is only one traverser like Zhuang Mingge on this shijie......

"Hehe, don't make such a fuss. This is Europe, the home base of Adidas, and it has nothing to do with Nike, and a Reebok in the North American market is enough for it to have a headache now; As for companies like Umbro and Puma, a lucrative European market has narrowed their horizons, and they can't understand the latest and fastest developments in the American market, the center of sports brands, maybe they still think that the asking price of Crédit Lyon is too high, or maybe they simply don't have the ability and confidence to take over the big stall of Adidas! ”

Listening to the situation about Adidas from Little Gross, Zhuang Mingge felt that her analysis was reasonable, and it also made him, an outsider, feel like he was in the clouds.

However, Zhuang Mingge also felt that Grosz Jr. was a little too excited about the acquisition of Adidas, and he was not worried about how to run Adidas in the future.

Umbro and Puma, the big-name sports brand companies are not confident to take over such a big company as Adidas, and the two of us who started by gambling can run it well? Zhuang Mingge was very worried about this.

"Ahem...... I said Rebecca, this loan shark Crédit Lyonnais is asking for 500 million dollars! I don't think we have the financial resources to take those shares from the French now. Zhuang Mingge thought about it for a while, but still raised objections.

"Hmph~I know~" Little Groz clasped his hands in front of his chest and said proudly, "I have my own clever plan, Antonio, you will know if you follow me to France~"

"Okay, I'll just go with you." Zhuang Mingge also wanted to see how this little princess-like person used the means of "empty gloves white wolf" to take 70% of Adidas's shares from the mouth of Crédit Lyonnais.

And it's August, so maybe it's a good idea to take Karin on a short trip to France.

"As I said beforehand, Sister Karin won't be going to France with you this time." Just when Zhuang Mingge was thinking about it, the joking voice of Little Grotz came from his ears, "I told her just now, this time only me and you will go to France for a trip~"

So you've been talking about this in the living room since the beginning!

……

"Rebecca, weishenme, you said you were going to negotiate with the people at Crédit Lyonnais, but you took me to Marseille." After getting off the plane, Zhuang Mingge asked with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, you'll find out later."

The person to meet was the head of the Crédit Lyon bank, but Groz Jr. took Zhuang Mingge to Marseille, a seaport city in the south of France.

Even if there is no direct flight between Florence and Lyon, Zhuang Mingge does not think that the Grozzi family's private jet will stop in Marseille for some boring reason, which means that Groz Jr. has to deal with some related matters in Marseille before negotiating with the people of Crédit Lyonnais.

"I mean, we're going to live here in Marseille today?" Seeing that the direction of the business car was not Lyon, which was located in the north of Marseille, but towards the south of Marseille, Zhuang Mingge thought that the destination of their trip was a hotel in the southern suburbs of Marseille.

"You'll know after a while, just look at the scenery on the side of the road." As if he had known that Zhuang Mingge would ask this question, Little Groz shrugged his shoulders very tacitly, and took out a magazine from the satchel she was carrying:

"And, not just today, I guess we'll both be in Marseille for a couple of days. By the way, you should know the old man on the back cover of the magazine, I heard that he used to be involved in football, and it was because of this guy that we couldn't go anywhere in France this time, so we could only stay here in Marseille! ”

Saying that, Xiao Groz waved her little fist in a thoughtful way, changing her way to express her dislike for this back cover character, Zhuang Mingge was also stunned by her cute movements for a while, and it took half a minute to react, and quickly set his eyes on the magazine in his hand.

Zhuang Mingge looked at the magazine in his hand, the old man on the back cover? Well, that's not the French movie star Jean Reno! What is unrecognizable!

Wait, it seems that I have lost my eyes this time, except that this old man is a little similar to the international movie star Uncle Renault, other places are completely different! Was what I just saw all hallucinations?

I used to play football and lived in Marseille...... Could it be him?

Seeing Zhuang Mingge's eyes projected at him, little Groz obviously expected Zhuang Mingge's thoughts, and said: "It seems that you have already guessed, that's right, what we are going to meet now is Mr. Tapi, the former owner of the Marseille club." ”

Sure enough, it was him!

As mentioned before, the Marseille match-fixing case only involved the club's general manager Bain at the beginning, but as the case deepened, the French police sensed that there was someone else behind Bane, and finally dug up Tapi's name from Bane's mouth.

It was also in May of this year that the verdict in the Marseille match-fixing case was finally handed down, and Tapi was convicted of being the mastermind in the case and sentenced by the court to one year in prison and not to be given any football pitch to watch the game for one year after being released from prison.

Now Tapi can be said to be extremely down, once the owner of the Marseille team and the minister of French cities, he was discredited because of this match-fixing case, and after the outbreak of this incident, he was embattled, bankrupt, his private yacht was auctioned, all his family property was confiscated, and he was in debt of more than 100 million US dollars.

Currently on bail, Tapi still lives on a nice estate, but in fact 80% of his current income is deducted from his payslip and taken directly by creditors.

What's the point of Rebecca coming to Tapi? Could it be that Tapi, the former majority shareholder of Adidas, can also be asked to help intercede and sell Adidas shares to them cheaply? Before arriving at Tapi's residence, Zhuang Mingge thought suspiciously.
