Chapter 461 lets you see the ability to make money

For the media and the people who eat melons, I really don't understand this kind of quarrel.

Procedural justice, right? At least I often hear it in movies and TV shows - we in Hong Kong talk about the law.

This has become a certain kind of belief, and even in the minds of the people of Hong Kong, it has been stamped with an ideological steel seal. Especially in those government civil servants, it has become an iron law.

But Li Yuansuo's factual justice is not unreasonable? Because this comes from a very simple view of right and wrong, you can't see death without help, right? There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that.

Of course, when it comes to bickering, ten Zhang Muhai are not as good as one Li Yuan, and they can't stop the endless rumors at all.

In the end, Zhang Muhai was finally forced to be anxious, and directly said cruel words - you have to be light, you can do it!

Unexpectedly, Li Yuan was even more impulsive: "...... Do you think I don't dare? Make a public statement now – Han Palace Investment's wholly-owned acquisition of Peregrine Group. It's better for us ordinary people to help ourselves! Some people wearing tops are vegetarian and a bunch of waste, they can't rely on ...... at all."

Pick that star!

Who can bear to hear these words...... If you can't bear it, you have to endure it!

Right? Since Li Yuan is impulsive, he wants to be this pick-up man, so why not throw it to him? Do you rot Peregrine in your own hands?

So Zhang Muhai immediately contacted the Han Palace and began to discuss the acquisition......

……

However, at this time, Li Yuan, together with Huang Jiaojiao, had already taken an international flight to Europe.

Obviously, the eldest sister is in a very happy mood, and she can finally live in a two-person world, and she can throw her two stupid sons to her parents to take care of: "Yuanzi, are you really ready to buy Peregrine?" Why do you always look for these bankrupt liquidated junk goods? ”

"Hehe, why not?"

"Don't think I don't understand. They're all there, and Peregrine is a bad debt. The losses in Southeast Asia have only passed the road. What's even more terrifying is that they have been underwriting red chips in the mainland. The holes that may be there in the future will get bigger and bigger. ”

This is indeed the latest rumor. It's still the same old saying - even East Asia and Southeast Asia have financial crises, can the mainland still be safe and sound? It may be possible to detonate a financial letterhead.

"Huh. There is not much money, at most it will cost seven or eight hundred million. We've got one more listed company. Li Yuan smiled, "Actually, the biggest headache for you is, so many CEOs, how can a business card fit in the future?" Hahaha! ”

Huang Jiaojiao glanced at her: "Who wants so many CEOs?" Hongu is not rare now. Hey, hey, hey. ”

Seeing that Huang Jiaojiao was in a good mood shaking her head and tail, Li Yuan knew that the eldest sister began to be proud again.

In reality, Peregrine is not as bad as it seems. After divesting all the non-performing assets, the future was still acquired by a French investment bank. Instead, let the French eat a lot of money?

In that case, it is better to keep it for yourself. And Han Palace Investment can also inject assets, which is also equivalent to backdoor leftovers, and can make a lot more.

"Hey, I won't ask you why you fancy this Peregrine. I don't understand, why are you arguing? We are also people with status now, so we should always pay attention to our status, right? ”

"Huh." Li Yuan smiled, "Jiaojiao, didn't you notice it?" Originally, when I bought Peregrine like this, it was easy to be misunderstood and robbed. Now a quarrel has turned into a charcoal in the snow. No one will come out of mine in the future. ”

"Huh?"

Indeed it is. Li Yuan is not a mad dog, is he full of food and spraying people everywhere?

Before this, Li Yuan had the attitude of a bystander to the Asian financial crisis. As long as you can avoid risks by yourself, you will neither take advantage of the fire to sell short, nor take advantage of the danger of others to buy the bottom.

No matter what, these behaviors are very hated, and it is easy to pick up money anyway, so why bother to be this wicked person?

For example, this time Soros, he became notorious later, right? And there are countless enemies around the world.

However, the sudden Peregrine incident gave Li Yuan a good excuse.

First a quarrel, then an impulse. Not only can Peregrine be publicly acquired now, but it will also be able to buy the remaining shares of Hong Kong's real estate market in the future

Anyway, what bad intentions does Brother Yuan have? Since the Hong Kong government was unwilling to come up with money to save the city, Li Yuan took out the money to "save himself". It can't be that he's acting wrong, right?

……

A little more than a dozen hours later, the plane landed at London International Airport.

Revisiting the old place, Huang Jiaojiao became more excited, and led Li Yuan to play in London for two years. It wasn't until someone who had been contacted in advance showed up that they set off for Sheffield lice in the middle of England...

The city of Sheffield, formerly the famous steel capital of the United Kingdom, is known as an industrial center in Europe.

However, with the decline of the United Kingdom, the city has been completely transformed into an educational, cultural and tourism city, especially as it is also the capital of electronic and modern music, which can be called the modern music capital of the United Kingdom.

On holidays, young people flock to Sheffield from all over the UK to enjoy the city's vibrant nightlife, with pubs and electronic music dominating. One can enjoy a variety of modern music genres such as Jacknbass, Electrohouse, R&B, etc., performed by internationally renowned DJs. Some of the more well-known ones are the Redstone Bar, the Iron Club, and many more

But it's also famous, it's also a sports capital. It has two century-old football clubs.

And this time, the reason why he came to Sheffield was because Li Yuan wanted to buy one of them - Sheffield United Football Club.

For such acquisitions, European and American countries have very mature markets, and there are professional sports agencies and law firms in the middle. As long as the buyer and seller reach an agreement, it is basically a turnkey service.

Therefore, after Li Yuan signed a contract with the club's Swiss owner, he directly bought the ...... for 6.8 million pounds League One clubs.

In the end, football clubs in this period were not worth much, especially those like Sheffield United. You know, right next door to this club, there's another strong team – Sheffield Wednesday.

Clubs like this, at this time in Europe, are basically a financial mess. For example, although the purchase price is not expensive, Li Yuan has also promised to cover the club's debt of 4.35 million pounds.

What's even more ridiculous is that this debt is also a muddled account. The club doesn't even have a professional ledger? Can you believe it?

Many of these clubs come from the support of local fans, and even the owners are basically dedicated. Generally, the price of the club's transfer will remain in the club until all the money is spent, and then go to find the next wrongdoer.

As for the club's profit or break-evens? I've never heard of anything like this. It's not Manchester United or Real Madrid, so if you don't burn money in it, how can you run the club?

How bad is Sheffield United's financial situation? Even the local wrongdoers have been all pitted. Before, I could only find the Swiss owner. Local fans don't care about selling to foreigners anymore.

So when I heard that there was a new Chinese wrongdoer, the Swiss boss was about to cry with happiness, and he didn't even do anything to bargain, so he signed the transfer contract in a hurry.

Of course, Li Yuan doesn't care about the Premier League and League One at all. The reason why I bought this club must be for my own business layout.

……

After getting the check, the Swiss boss politely declined Li Yuan's invitation, as if he had run away, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Many of the people who attended the signing ceremony, including members of the club's board of directors, were directors, and basically all of them were honorary local fans. There are also the old management and staff of the club, the management of the team, and so on.

In addition, Mr. Mallor, a candidate for club manager recommended by a sports agency.

Truth be told, in this day and age, foreigners buying British clubs are extremely rare, let alone Chinese. Therefore, the boss was suddenly changed, which made everyone present quite confused.

Finding that the atmosphere was a little dull, Marlo took the initiative to introduce: "Boss ......"

"Call me Lee!"

"Okay, Lee, Sheffield United have a long history. Founded in ......"

"Huh." Li Yuan interrupted with a smile, "Take this opportunity to hold a drinking party!" Everyone can get acquainted with each other. And, Marius, what I want to know is what's going on. The previous history needs no introduction. ”

A few of the staff were very interested and didn't know where to conjure up a few bottles of wine. As soon as the wine is drunk, the atmosphere is much more relaxed.

Mario smiled and continued: "Li, in fact, you have done a good business. In recent seasons, the team's record is still very good. They reached the play-offs last season and unfortunately lost to Crystal Palace in the final. There is a lot of hope of reaching the play-offs this season and the FA Cup is already in the round of 32......"

"So what's the difficulty?"

"Ahem." Marlo secretly observed Li Yuan's expression, after all, he was not very familiar with it, "It's just a bad financial situation, a lack of excellent players......"

"Oh! £5,000,000 to you. Strengthen the roster ahead of the winter window. Can it be done? ”

"Huh?"

In fact, in the 92-93 season, after being relegated from the Premier League, Sheffield United has been in this vicious circle of bad finances, Zheng has always wanted to pit some money from the owner, but never got it. The club can only barely survive by selling the players' funds.

The people present did not expect that the new boss would be so wealthy.

After being stunned for a few seconds, the two head coaches couldn't wait to ask: "Li, is yours real?" ”

"Of course it's true. Now you'll be able to get the check. ”

Li Yuan was funny in his heart, he didn't expect the club to be short of money like this? They don't even have the money to hire a professional head coach, so they can only use two inexperienced assistant coaches as co-head coaches? Is that still a professional club? That's a joke!

"Great. That's great! We have a good boss! The club finally got rich! There was laughter all around.

"Huh."

“……”

When it comes to acquiring clubs in Europe's top five leagues, the first to do so is definitely Chelsea's Abou. However, in this era, there is no Abu at all, and there is no money ability to subvert European football!

Since this is the case, Li Yuan will definitely use his money ability. Regardless of whether Sheffield United is League One or League C, under the ability of money, all beings are equal, will it not be the Premier League sooner or later?

The other is the upfront investment. What are millions, tens of millions? With the commercial promotion of the Premier League around the world, coupled with the emergence of new media such as the Internet, the market value of Premier League clubs is at least more than $1 billion. Even Chelsea, like Abu, can be as high as two billion dollars.

Of course, Abu was later floating in the rivers and lakes, and he was stabbed bloodily.

However, Li Yuan didn't care about these at all. I don't care about the upfront investment, I don't care much about the results, I don't care about the profits, and I don't even care about the stabbing ......

The key is to have the platform of the club!

With the influence of the Premier League, their products can be promoted unlimitedly. Like chest ads, it is perfectly possible to leave parallel lines and u2. There are also Yeshan Qingquan, Bingku, Tang Zun ......, and even a wild mountain hot pot on the buttocks?

So many advertising platforms, and they only spent £6.8 million? Is it good to win? And there are a lot of follow-up products, at least for twenty or thirty years?

As for advertising costs? The Premier League is only about a million pounds, and two or three hundred thousand in the English League is enough.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan suddenly remembered one thing: "Mario, can the stadium be renovated into a modern stadium?" And a training base? ”

"Huh?"

There were so many surprises that it scared everyone out of the way. Marlius asked anxiously: "Lee, this budget should be hundreds of millions of pounds...... Right? ”

As a man who killed decisive fat sheep, Li Yuan waved his hand haughtily: "You go to contact the city government and get approval as soon as possible." There is no need to worry about the money aspect. That's what I'm investing in the club. ”

"Huh?"

"Oh, the new stadium, it's called the Blue Dragon Automobile Stadium. The training base is called Phoenix New Energy Training Base. I'll solve the problem of naming rights for you. ”

"That'...... So what are the requirements for the team's results? ”

"Inform the team that I will personally give £5 million in bonuses to the Premier League this season. If it fails, next year's transfer fee budget will not be less than 15 million. If you become a Premier League team, 30 million. To qualify for the Champions League, the budget will never be less than £100 million! Not far away, this promise will be valid for five years! ”

"Huh?"

In the exclamation, the people present almost didn't pee, because this amount of transfer fee is too exaggerated.

According to the current transfer market, players with a transfer fee of more than 10 million euros are already top stars. The number of first-class stars is only 5 million to 8 million.

A club like League One has a transfer fee of 6 or 7 million a year, which is already a lot of money. I didn't expect to be able to get so much money all of a sudden, isn't that cool?

Wrong wrong! Wait a minute! Does this Chinese boss really have that much money?
