My Age of Investment

In the next few days, Xia Jingxing went to the court to inspect the main players who were training.

The bloody duo inflicted a devastating blow on Liverpool, not just for words.

A few months ago, two guys who were strapped for cash sold future midfield master Xavi Alonso to Real Madrid for 3,500 euros.

At the same time, Real Madrid also spent 80 million pounds to buy Ronaldo from Manchester United.

With the addition of players such as Ramos and Benzema, the second phase of the Galaxy Battleship project has begun construction.

However, when Xia Jingxing took a look at the main player lists of the five major leagues, he found a lot of young players who had not yet made their mark.

For example, Bale and Modric are currently playing for Tottenham Hotspur, and it won't take much effort to recruit them.

However, there is no rush to dig out potential superstars. The top priority is to reorganize the Liverpool Club, formulate a development strategy, and then hire a good coach based on the actual situation and build a new team around the coach.

Xia Jingxing himself is only half-baked in football. For professional matters, professionals must be hired. He can only give suggestions to the head coach.

In fact, you shouldn't give suggestions, as it will make it difficult for the head coach to do so, but Xia Jingxing has such a good eye for "knowing people", so it would be a waste not to use it.

After watching the training for a while, Xia Jingxing returned to the conference room with a large group of Liverpool FC executives.

These executives have been very well-behaved recently. Before they figured out Xia Jingxing's true thoughts, they were all trying to show off in front of the new boss. They basically did whatever Xia Jingxing said.

After glancing at the senior executives who were sitting at attention, Xia Jingxing slowly said: "After these days of contact, I basically have a grasp of the situation of Liverpool Football Club.

The team's current performance is very poor and has slipped to 7th place in the league standings.

The reason for this situation is that on the one hand, the team lacks funds. When recruiting in the summer, they only sell players without adding new blood; on the other hand, the team's atmosphere is not very good, and many big-name players are worried about football. If the team goes bankrupt, what will be his fate? How can he train and play football with peace of mind?

Of course, I don't mean to accuse anyone by saying this. This is the mess left by the previous boss.

The general environment is like this, and everyone is determined to cheer up the club, but there is nothing they can do about it. "

Braun and the other management all nodded. The new boss is really considerate, and what he said is so right. They all rely on the bloody duo!

However, this group of people were not happy for long. Xia Jingxing changed the subject and said: "Now that I have become the new owner of Liverpool, everything needs to change.

From today on, everyone from the club management to the players to the support staff must use the new assessment standards.

There is still half a year, or half a season, before the end of the 2009-10 season.

I hope to see a different Liverpool in the next half season!

Of course, competitive results are the most intuitive manifestation of change. I need the team to enter the top four in the league to guarantee a ticket to the Champions League.

If we can't play in the Champions League, it will cause a lot of trouble for our signings next summer. "

Speaking of this, Xia Jingxing turned his attention to Rafael Benitez, who is currently the coach of Liverpool.

This is also a famous coach. In the second year of coaching Liverpool, he staged the Miracle in Istanbul and won the Champions League trophy. He is known as the "Master of Tactics".

In the past five years of coaching Liverpool, well-known teams such as Juventus, AC Milan, Barcelona, ​​Inter Milan, and Arsenal have all fallen under his formation. Last season, Liverpool began to decline, but Under the leadership of Benitez, they still shaved Real Madrid's head 5-0 in two rounds of the Champions League and defeated Manchester United 4-1.

To the fans, this is a meritorious coach.

As the new boss, Xia Jingxing kills the meritorious coach when he comes up, and the goodwill the fans have for him may soon disappear without a trace.

Therefore, Benitez has to be kept for half a season for the time being, and he will decide whether to kill him based on his coaching results.

If the coaching performance is poor, there is a good reason to kill the opponent.

And when the season ends, it will be more convenient to recruit and reorganize the team.

Xia Jingxing's impression of this famous coach was neither good nor bad. After all, he had had great successes, but he always felt that he had been on a decline.

Later, he even gave up for five buckets of rice and was invited by his father to coach in Jinzhou.

Facing Xia Jingxing's gaze, Benitez nodded and said, "Mr. Xia, I will do my best."

Xia Jingxing smiled, said nothing more, and then turned his attention to a group of senior executives at the club who were feeling a little uneasy.

A key player like Benitez doesn't mind giving another chance. Naturally, he won't change the club so quickly. The next transition will need the help of these local snakes.

Once you slowly gain control of the club, it won't be too late to change players.

"There is an old saying in China that the emperor never needs hungry soldiers!"

Xia Jingxing said with a smile: "Although I have made new demands on everyone, I will provide financial support to the club.

According to the agreement, the club's debt of 350 million pounds owed to Royal Bank of Scotland has been transferred to Daxia Capital.

Next, Daxia Capital will pay off this large amount of debt at once, reducing the burden on the club so that everyone can move forward with ease.

At the same time, Daxia Capital will also inject 500 million pounds into the club.

Among them, 200 million pounds will be used to supplement the club's operating funds, and the other 300 million pounds will be used as the first batch of funds to build the Stanley Park stadium.

Oh, no, the new stadium is not called Stanley Park. "

Seeing everyone's surprised looks, Xia Jingxing raised his chin towards Liu Hai who was sitting next to him.

Liu Hai picked up a document on the table and gestured to everyone: "This is a sponsorship agreement from China. China's Fuxing Industrial Holdings Group intends to name the new Liverpool stadium.

Fuxing Industrial Holding Group offers 200 million pounds for naming rights for 20 years!

After signing the naming agreement, the new stadium will be named Renaissance Stadium.

Revival is a word with profound meaning, which is very suitable for the giant Liverpool, which has been in decline for twenty years. "

Finance Director Nash was very sensitive to numbers and immediately questioned: "10 million pounds a year, is this sponsorship fee a little too low? The stadium naming rights of teams at the same level as Liverpool are tens of millions of pounds a year.

Moreover, the cost of Stanley Park Stadium is 1 billion pounds, making it the most expensive and largest stadium in Europe. "

The others remained silent and looked at Nash as if they were a fool.

They are all properties under the name of the new boss. How much money to charge for naming rights is not the boss’s final say. Why do you want to be clever? Want to lose your job?

Xia Jingxing said calmly: "Fuxing Industrial will not only name the new stadium, but also become Liverpool's jersey advertising sponsor. This is a package sponsorship package."

Nashi remained silent, knowing that he had asked the wrong question. It was obvious that the boss wanted to support Liverpool like the oil tycoons, contracting almost all large sponsorships.

Xia Jingxing continued: "The club has a lot of new projects to carry out, so I will appoint a new financial director.

Well, I feel sorry for you to serve as deputy financial director. "

Nashi didn't expect the punishment to come so quickly, so he just asked a few more questions, and ended up being demoted.

However, he had already lost his temper and did not dare to talk back again. The consequences of further talk might be unemployment. The financial crisis had only passed not long ago, and it was hard to find a job.

In fact, even if Na Shi didn't jump out, Xia Jingxing would still use him to scare other people. How could such a key position in finance be faked by others?

Xia Jingxing glanced at the other executives who were already in a panic and continued to read out the order.

“To build a new Internet department, in addition to upgrading and operating the official Liverpool website, we also need to develop the official mobile application of Liverpool, and also open official social accounts in the United States and China such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Hainei.com, and Weibo. Create an Internet marketing and publicity matrix.

In addition, the commercial department will contact Marvel, Domestic Pictures, Jupin Pictures and other companies as soon as possible to establish advertising cooperation.

Next, we need to establish cooperation with domestic games, and the two parties will jointly develop a football game.

Fuxing Industrial's Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and other laboratories will also create a technological training system, tactical analysis system and other technological football service products for the team..."

Listening to the orders read out by Xia Jingxing, everyone finally understood what it meant to redefine football.

It is not just as simple as building a new stadium and buying a bunch of big-name players, but using the Internet and the power of technology to change football.

From training to matches to post-match analysis, technological products and services will be used in every aspect of Liverpool FC operations.
