Shenhao who plays around the world

Chapter 252 Daily Surprises

Manchester United's home ground, Old Trafford.

In the VIP box.

Members of the Glazer family are warmly entertaining their distinguished guest, a super-rich man from the East.

Lin Shen is also well aware of the Glazer family's petty intentions, and they just want to use him as a hype.

As one of the few super-rich people in the world, Lin Shen's every move will attract close attention from any industry, and may even cause a reshuffle of the industry he enters.

If the Glazer family wants to sell Manchester United, it won't happen overnight.

Manchester United fans also hope that the Glazer family will get out of here and get a new owner who is rich and willing to invest.

There is no doubt that Lin Shen is the perfect candidate for all Manchester United fans.

Although Lin Shen's real net worth is a mystery, it is certain that he has a net worth of more than 100 billion US dollars.

With Lin Shen's financial resources, acquiring Manchester United would not be a big deal.

The net profits of several major luxury goods groups under his name alone are enough to easily buy two clubs of the same level as Manchester United every year.

The Glazer family has been running Manchester United for so many years and has long since recouped the initial acquisition capital and interest on debt. Not to mention that they have invested zero and have taken away hundreds of millions of pounds in dividends.

The owner of Manchester City next door has spent at least 1 billion pounds on Manchester City out of his own pocket over the years.

Manchester United fans hate the Glazer family so much that they have held many demonstrations to protest against the Glazer family's stingy investment in Manchester United.

Some fans even said, ‘Manchester United will never win the Premier League title as long as the Glazer family is in power’!

No matter how much Manchester United fans criticize, it does not prevent Manchester United from still being a popular and wealthy club.

The Glazer family warmly entertained Lin Shen just to add another potential buyer to Manchester United.

"Joel, I'd like to hear your family's expected sale price for Manchester United."

Lin Shen is not opposed to hearing the Glazer family's offer.

If it's within his acceptable range, it wouldn't be a bad idea to buy a team in the Premier League for fun.

"Our family hopes to sell for no less than 5 billion pounds. The buyer will need to bear an additional 1 billion pounds of debt and complete the reconstruction of Old Trafford Stadium and Carrington Base."

Joel gave his family's quotation and saw Lin Shen opposite him shaking his head slightly.

"too low."

"Um?"

Joel looked overjoyed. This was the first time someone recognized his family's offer, and his favorable impression of Lin Shen instantly increased.

Those damn financial practitioners slandered them as a black-hearted family.

"You should be bolder. Manchester United is worth at least 10 billion pounds, and you decided to sell it for only 5 billion pounds?"

After Lin Shen finished speaking, he stopped talking to the brothers Joel and Avram.

It’s no wonder Manchester United fans hate them so much, these guys are really so evil that it makes people speechless.

A team that has not won a Premier League title in the past 20 years still has the nerve to offer 5 billion pounds?

How dare you think about it!

In the stadium, everything speaks for itself.

No matter how glorious Manchester United was in the past, they are all rotten things of the past.

In the past 20 years, Manchester United has been unable to even secure the semi-finals. This is a fact that all Manchester United fans cannot deny.

Under such circumstances, the Glazer family still wants to sell Manchester United at a high price, which is really greedy to the extreme.

If Manchester United wins three consecutive Premier League titles, £5 billion is not unacceptable.

Today's Manchester United has long since lost its former glory.

Not even Zidane has the confidence to lead this current Manchester United team to the top.

Joel and Avram looked at each other and realized that Lin Shen didn't have much interest in Manchester United.

But if they don't sell it, Manchester United may completely bring down their family.

After missing the Champions League for many consecutive seasons and never winning a championship, Manchester United's commercial value has declined severely, while its liabilities have soared.

Today, Manchester United's liabilities and unpaid transfer installments have exceeded 1 billion pounds.

Old Trafford has been in disrepair for a long time and has reached the point where it is neither broken nor established.

A new Old Trafford stadium can be built, with an estimated investment of 1.5 billion pounds.

In addition to the reconstruction of the Carrington base, it will also require about 200 million pounds.

If Manchester United is not sold, the family wants to invest 2.7 billion pounds in it.

It's scary to think about it.

That’s £2.7 billion!

Over the years, the dividends their family has earned from Manchester United have only amounted to £200 million.

It is impossible to invest, and only selling is the best way to meet their family's expectations.

But those buyers are also very cunning.

On the surface, the asking price is 5 billion pounds.

In fact, you have to add in debt, the budget for stadium construction, and even the budget for future signings.

The actual expenditure for acquiring the shares was less than 2 billion pounds.

Just kidding, they are the greedy Glazer family.

Even Chelsea can be sold for 2.5 billion pounds.

The Glazer family's bottom line must be at least the same as Chelsea's sale price.

On the court, the confrontation between red and blue made the fans extremely excited.

Strong dialogue is also the key to the Premier League's ratings over other leagues.

The Manchester United team under Zidane is ranked third in the Premier League standings and has great hopes of reaching the Champions League.

Chelsea's side is not a good one either.

In the past few years, Manchester United has completely crushed Manchester United in terms of investment.

And this season, the two new players introduced from the Chinese Super League Guangzhou City have quickly secured their main positions.

Eisen at the goalkeeper position and Rudy at the defense spent a combined 130 million euros, which made Blues fans particularly satisfied.

Next door, Manchester United spent 100 million pounds on just one goalkeeper.

There are very few parallel imports of Chinese stars, and their reputation is very loud in the five major leagues.

Even the proud British have to admit it.

The Chinese team will be a super strong enemy that they will pay great attention to in next year's World Cup.

In the end, with a score of 1:1, the two sides shook hands and made peace.

Lin Shen nodded slightly, not paying much attention to the other players on both sides.

Qian Duoduo and the others perform very well, train hard every day, and their condition has not declined.

After the game, Lin Shen originally planned to leave for Italy.

The Glazer family insisted on hosting a banquet, obviously they were unwilling to give up and still wanted to sell it at a high price.

Businessmen are all greedy.

The family doesn't care how Manchester United performs.

All they care about is their family's investment income.

As a result, it was at the banquet carefully prepared by the Glazer family.

The system suddenly got into trouble and directly rewarded Lin Shen to a ready-made Premier League club.

It's a pity that it's not Manchester United, but Arsenal.

This is very embarrassing.

With Arsenal, Lin Shen will naturally no longer be interested in Manchester United.

What's more, London, where Arsenal is located, is the financial center of the United Kingdom.

The British offices of Kering Group and Richemont Group are also located in London.

Due to both emotions and reasons, Lin Shen is more inclined to become the owner of a London team.

Manchester United?

Let the Glazer family slowly find someone willing to take over.

…

London.

The financial center of the entire Europe is also the first choice for wealthy people to purchase property and invest.

Arsenal, as a veteran Premier League powerhouse.

The fan base in London crushes other clubs.

It easily makes profits every season and has cash reserves that other Premier League giants are jealous of.

In some years, the cash reserve exceeds 200 million pounds, and buyers do not need to apply for a loan from the bank, which is really annoying.

Arsenal's shareholding changes also caused a huge sensation.

The entire acquisition process was completed at a speed that no one expected.

In Europe, where efficiency is slow, such speed of approval really shocked many British people.

The identity of the new boss has made all Arsenal fans tremble with excitement.

A super-rich man worth hundreds of billions of dollars has become the new owner of the Emirates Stadium.

The paparazzi all over England went crazy for him.

If anyone can photograph Lin Shen's whereabouts, getting a promotion and salary increase will be a dream.

As a super rich man, Lin Shen naturally has a mansion in London.

The mansion is located in the prosperous Mayfair district of London.

As one of the most expensive areas in the UK, it has almost all the luxury elements.

High-end shopping malls, dazzling boutiques, top restaurants and hotels, luxury cars whizzing by, and bustling crowds.

In such a lively and prosperous place, naturally expensive mansions are inevitable.

And those who can afford to buy a house here are either rich or expensive.

Among the many mansions in Mayfair, one is known as the largest and most expensive super mansion in Mayfair. It is composed of two adjacent villas and has an area of ​​4,000 square meters.

This is London where land is at a premium!

This kind of super-large mansion is even more expensive.

Lin Shen is the new owner of this mansion.

It cost a total of 200 million pounds to buy this mansion.

Converted, that is 1.7 billion yuan.

According to his current privileges as a max-level boss, the system will reward him 100 million in cash every day, and from time to time there will be super gifts like ‘100% shares of Arsenal Club’.

1.7 billion is just a small thing.

The market value of Arsenal Football Club alone is at least over 2 billion pounds.

Compared to Manchester United, which is heavily in debt next door, Kroenke, the owner of Arsenal, runs Arsenal like a family heirloom.

Only fools will sell if they have stable profits every season.

This is what the system did to make Kroenke go away.

Lin Shen is generally very satisfied with living in this luxury house that the previous owner put a lot of effort into building.

The mansion has 12 bedrooms and a banquet hall that can accommodate 200 people.

The interior decoration is also extremely luxurious. In order to make it more royal, 20,000 gold foils were used.

Since the underground floors of the two villas have been opened, various facilities such as private bars, home theaters, swimming pools, gyms, salons and game rooms are available.

I sat down on the sofa in the living room and turned on the TV.

Several guests who looked like football stars were discussing the changes brought about by his arrival at Arsenal on a talk show.

This program specially interviews some fans.

Many Arsenal fans are crazy with excitement for the Kroenke family to get out, and they even have great expectations for the club's new owner.

The Chinese are very wealthy, not to mention that the owners of the teams they support have the terrifying financial resources to compete with the world's richest man.

As long as they invest 100 million pounds every season, it will be enough for them to worship him and love him crazy!

Lin Shen smiled, what a lovely group of fans.

He is a businessman, how can he engage in loss-making business?

Let him spend money like the tycoons in the Middle East?

Come on, his money didn't come from the strong wind.

Money can be spent.

But spend it wisely.

Does Arsenal lack stars?

Hmm...it's definitely lacking.

But Lin Shen believes that what Arsenal should do most is to renovate their old stadium.

When it comes to renovating the stadium, the people under Lin Shen are absolutely professional.

The Rose Garden Stadium in Malaga, the Sicily Stadium in Palermo, the Puma Racing Center in Guangzhou, the Bird's Nest Stadium in Cathay Pacific...

Other team owners may be concerned about the loss of ticket revenue during stadium renovations.

As a max-level boss, as long as Lin Shen provides a renovation plan and funds, he can get a brand new stadium in a month at most.

He spent a wonderful night in his new home in London, and countless people stayed up all night because of him.

Many Arsenal fans even went to the pub to discuss whether he would invest generously in Arsenal.

In terms of stinginess, Kroenke can be compared with the Glazer family.

After meeting with Arsenal's management, Lin Shen directly emphasized at the meeting that Arsenal should first bring a world-class stadium with at least 80,000 fixed seats.

The original Emirates Stadium could accommodate 60,000 people and cost close to 500 million pounds.

For a stadium with 80,000 people, the original stadium must be completely demolished and rebuilt.

In a megacity like London, the cost of completing such a reconstruction work would be at least 1.2 billion pounds, and the ultimate budget would even reach 1.5 billion pounds.

After the meeting ended, reporters who had been waiting for a long time swarmed in.

Lin Shen smiled and talked in the face of the reporter's criticism.

"I have always been an Arsenal fan. At a suitable opportunity, Mr. Kroenke and I reached a consensus and completed the acquisition of Arsenal. I believe this is definitely an epoch-making scene for Arsenal fans.

, I will bring Arsenal the top stadium in the Premier League, and as for the name, I plan to name it Wenger Stadium."

Ignoring the stunned expressions of reporters at the scene, Lin Shen, escorted by bodyguards, got into the Range Rover and drove away.

After Lin Shen left the club, reporters couldn't wait to spread what he said.

Countless British fans have felt the terrifying financial power of the heads of large financial groups.

"OMG, this Chinese is really too willful. He doesn't care about the naming fee of the stadium?"

"Yeah, this Chinese is so willful that it's jaw-dropping."

"If the professor hears the news, he will be moved to tears, right?"

"Wenger's contribution to Arsenal definitely deserves this honor!"

For many Arsenal fans, Arsene Wenger can never be avoided when talking about Arsenal.

And this old man who was driven away by them once single-handedly carried Arsenal, brought them a top stadium in Europe, and had more than ten years of memories of competing for the top four.

Now, the new boss has completely rectified Wenger's name.

Arsenal's new stadium will be named after him in the future, which is an unimaginable honor for any head coach.

Even the legendary old man next door who single-handedly built Manchester United into a giant and brought countless championships was not able to receive this honor.
