When Chu Zhongtian said the number "10 million pounds", Samuelson did feel his heart stop beating, and his hand couldn't help but shake, and his phone almost fell to the ground.

He was really scared.

He had thought before that how much money Chu Zhongtian would donate to the team on the grounds of paying membership fees. He thought that at most one or two million pounds would be great. However, he thought that it would be ten million at the first time... pounds!

What is the concept of 10 million pounds?

Wimbledon Athletics' current salary budget is 80,000 pounds per week, which is the lowest among the 24 teams in the Championship.

In a year, it is a salary budget of 4.16 million pounds. Chu Zhongtian paid one time and the salary budget for the team for two seasons is enough, and there are still some left.

With this money, the team can build a new stadium... Samuelson was thinking this way, and he heard Chu Zhongtian say: "But I want to specify the purpose - this money can only be used and must be used in transfers."

The club chairman felt like he was poured down by a basin of cold water... "Uh...hehe, of course, we will definitely not spend this money anywhere else..." Samuelson, who was guessed his worries, could only smile awkwardly.

If the club is a joint-stock company, Chu Zhongtian now has an absolute majority of shares in the club, and he has long been the club's chairman. So when Samuelson faces Chu Zhongtian, he will always be on the weak side intentionally or unintentionally... "This money is for the club to buy new players and strengthen their strength. After all, no one of us wants to see the team fall into the first level after this season, right?" Chu Zhongtian said.

"Yes, I don't think anyone wants to see the team be relegated..." Samuelson nodded in agreement.

"So that's it?"

"Yes...uh, yes, that's it..."

"Okay, I think the money will be transferred to the club's account in three days at the latest. You can pay attention to it at that time."

Until Chu Zhongtian hung up the phone, Samuelson still felt that he was dreaming - what day is today? Why did he suddenly get 10 million pounds?

With this ten million pounds, Russell's problem has been solved. At the same time, although this money cannot be used to build a new stadium, it alleviates the team's economic difficulties and can be regarded as indirectly helping the new stadium construction plan... At least with this ten million, the team's other income can be invested in the new stadium construction plan.

※※※After calling Samuelson, Chu Zhongtian made an "ok" gesture to Emily, indicating that everything had been negotiated.

"Now, only next January 1st is left to sign a contract with Wimbledon and then inform Real Madrid of the news..."

"You're not going to tell Real Madrid now?" Emily asked.

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: "It's too early, I don't want to say it. What if there is any change in the middle?"

He was still cautious. If he explained everything now, if he failed, wouldn’t he be a laughing stock? Chu Zhongtian would not do such a thing.

Emily nodded and agreed to Chu Zhongtian's approach.

"You can transfer 10 million to the team tomorrow. I think the team needs this money very much now." Chu Zhongtian said to Emily.

Emily smiled: "Ten million, or pounds. You are so generous, Chu! I think you can buy this team, right?"

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: "It is impossible to buy it. We are a membership club... But, well, you reminded me that I really plan to run for the chairman of Wimbledon Athletics in the future! Haha!"

※※The next day, Russell was a little absent-minded when he led the team to train. He was always in his heart that Chu Zhongtian was going to join the team next season. He was very excited when he thought of this - he actually didn't sleep well last night. Now looking at his team's lineup, he has begun to outline what adjustments to his team's tactics and lineup if Chu Zhongtian comes. Who needs to buy and who are the team no longer needs. Chu's arrival is not simply adding one person. His arrival will definitely make some people lose their living space in the team, especially in the midfield.

The team's main midfielder Hernando Jupiter has good offensive skills, but he has been making trouble for transfers. After several seasons, he found that whether the team can stay in the Championship is a problem, let alone advance to the Premier League. At the beginning, he was very excited to upgrade this team, and he felt that joining this team could realize his dream of playing in the Premier League. Unexpectedly, more than a season has passed, the reality is cruel. No matter how tempting Wimbledon's slogan is, the team is still struggling in the relegation zone. He doesn't want to continue wasting his time. Now Leeds United is inviting him. Leeds United has performed very well this season. They are likely to be promoted successfully at the end of the season, and then he can play the Premier League he wants to play.

At that time, Russell didn't know that Chu Zhongtian would join the team, so he refused to let Jupiter go, which made Jupiter very dissatisfied. He was late and left early during training, and was injured - anyway, he tried his best to force the club to let him go to Leeds United.

This matter has been going on since the summer transfer window, and the team won in the summer. Although Russell is very young and thirty-six years old, he is very tough. He would rather let Jupiter play in the reserve team until his contract ends, and he would never let Jupiter leave the team. Jupiter's contract with the team is still three seasons. If that is the case, Jupiter's most precious youth will be delayed.

So in the end, Jupiter surrendered, and Russell quickly "sacrificed his past grudges" and asked him to continue to play the team's main midfielder.

However, his mind has become active recently. Seeing that there are more than two months left before the winter transfer window, Leeds United has begun to seduce him again.

This person gave Russell a headache. He can indeed help the team on the court, but his actions off the court can disrupt the morale of the army and destroy the atmosphere in the locker room. The team is in poor condition recently and has to fight for relegation for two consecutive seasons, and it is very hard to play. After Jupiter's fuss, many people have the same idea as him, wanting to leave Wimbledon and find another way out.

Unfortunately, there is a candidate who can replace him, so he had to let Jupiter continue to make such a fuss.

Now, with Chu Zhongtian, who cares about your position in Jupiter? While he can still sell some money now, sell it quickly to alleviate the team's economic difficulties - Russell didn't know that Chu Zhongtian had planned to inject 10 million pounds into the team.

However, Russell did not intend to talk to Jupiter immediately and let him get out. He also had to delay the transfer fee to try to get more money, and at the same time suppressed the man's arrogant arrogance - he had been tormenting himself for so long, how could he have not had any "return gifts" at all?

After the morning training, Russell went straight to Samuelson. He endured it all morning and couldn't wait to tell the club chairman the news. Samuelson had said before that he wanted Chu Zhongtian to join the team to be a daydream, but now it's his turn to be proud. Of course, he has to show off in front of Samuelson.

When he knocked on the door of Samuelson's office, he found that the club's business manager Ivor_heller was also there.

Heller had a bright smile on his face, as if he had just turned a million.

Similarly, club chairman Samuelson was also with a bright smile on his face.

Russell wondered why these two people were so happy today. They were usually frowning, especially business manager Heller, who frowned and kept sighing, as if the team was going to go bankrupt tomorrow.

Why did you suddenly change your sex today?

He was a little confused, so that the expression of joy on his face became stiff because he was at a loss.

Samuelson saw that the person who came in was Russell, and he said hello to him: "Hey, Ahlai. I'm going to find you."

"Look for me?" Russell was a little surprised. Could this happy event still be related to me? Is the club planning to spend millions to buy players for itself in the winter transfer market?

Russell felt that anything other than this matter was not a happy event for him, especially after he knew that Chu Zhongtian had made up his mind to join the team freely next season.

"Didn't you always want money to buy people? I think you have it now!" Samuelson said with a chorus.

Chu Zhongtian's efficiency was amazing. Just now Hell opened the door of his office and rushed in almost crazily, telling him the news - he found that there was an extra 10 million pounds in the club's account. At first, he thought it was dazzled, but later he looked at it several times, including rubbing his eyes, closing his eyes and resting for a while before looking at it. The money was all in his eyes.

His expression seemed to have seen a ghost at first, but later he was ecstatic - no matter how the money came about, at least now there is an extra amount of money to spend on the team's books, and it's still 10 million pounds!

As the team's business director, Heller knew very well how much this ten million pounds could do.

So he ran to Samuelson's office to tell him the good news, and it was here that he learned the origin of the money.

He was sighing with Samuelson about Chu Zhongtian's innocent heart, and the door behind him was knocked open by Russell.

Huller said excitedly to Russell: "We now have ten million pounds on the books!"

Russell was startled by the number: "More, how much?"

"Ten million! pounds!" Heller repeated.

Russell was also frightened: "What did you take to mortgage to get so much money?"

He thought the club must have used some mortgage to borrow from the bank.

Unexpectedly, Chairman Samuelson told him: "There is no loan at all. This is what Chu gave us!"

"Chu?" Russell hadn't reacted yet.

"Yes, Chu injected 10 million yuan into the team under the pretext of paying membership fees. And..." Samuelson glanced at Russell. "You are very lucky. Chu stipulated that this money can only be used in the transfer market. In other words, you have the money to buy people now!"

Russell felt as if he was blinded by happiness. Next, he only saw the mouths of the club chairman and business managers moving, but could not hear their voices.

He will receive a transfer fee of 10 million pounds, which can be used to buy many players he has long been interested in but has no money to buy?

Is this true?

He felt that hearing Chu Zhongtian's plan to transfer freely to join his team yesterday was already great news. Now he didn't expect that he would receive another transfer fee of 10 million pounds. After being excited yesterday, he was still worried that if he could not relegate this season, wouldn't he have to play in the League One after Chu comes? This is obviously unacceptable. Players like Chu Zhongtian will be considered "betrayed" to play in the League One. Wouldn't he want to become a laughing stock in the whole world?

In order not to let his good friends become a laughing stock, Russell decided to keep the team in the English Championship no matter what means he used.

Only in this way can he give Chu Zhongtian an explanation when Chu Zhongtian comes next season.

But now this problem has been solved. With this ten million pounds, he can buy capable players, so that the team will not be a problem for staying in the English Championship.

He was also happy for the money. After the three of them got together for a while, Samuelson reacted and asked Russell: "By the way, Alai. Is there anything you have to do with me?"

Russell remembered his original purpose.

He said to the two, "Well, it's actually something related to Chu..."

"It's related to Chu?" Samuelson felt strange. It's not that coincidental? Chu became the focus of the discussion among the three of them... "That's right. I received a call last night, which was Chu." Russell told the two people on the opposite side about Chu Zhongtian calling him yesterday. "... He told me in person that he planned to transfer freely to Wimbledon Athletics! Didn't you say that I invited Chu Lai to daydream, Eric? Haha!"

Russell laughed proudly - his purpose of coming here was not simply to tell Samuelson Chu Zhongtian to come next season, but to laugh at Samuelson who had said big talk at the beginning.

Neither Samuelson nor Heller seemed very excited. After hearing Russell's words, they looked at Russell who was laughing in a daze.

After laughing, Russell found that the other party's reaction was not as expected, and his smile was boring, so he curled his lips: "What's wrong? You guys?"

"This is not April Fool's Day, Alai..." Heller murmured.

"Is this true?" Samuelson directly questioned Russell.

Russell said angrily: "This is of course true! Chu Du can actually provide the team with a stop of 10 million euros. Why can't he return to Wimbledon? You must know that this is the team he debuted! He is a member of this team, and his love for this team is unmatched. Why can't he come here to play football?"

Russell's rhetorical question left the two speechless.

They do not deny Chu Zhongtian's love for this team. They just feel that even if they love this team, there is no need to come to this team in person... After all, the span between Wimbledon and Real Madrid is too big... "Anyway, this is the case. Chu will come to the team to play next season. He said that he will let the agent contact us." Russell said.

"Wait..." Heller suddenly said: "What should I do with my salary? His annual salary in Real Madrid is 8.5 million euros. Even if he cuts his salary by half, we will definitely not be able to afford the money..."

Russell smiled: "He said that his weekly salary is only 7,000 pounds, and it's enough to ensure that his salary is the highest in the team."

Heller let out a sigh of relief. If this is true, he would have nothing to worry about. Chu Zhongtian's arrival is a good thing for him. When Chu comes to the team, it will inevitably increase the team's popularity and image. At the same time, sponsors will follow Chu, which will increase the team's chances and number of sponsors. The team's financial situation will also improve further.

At the same time, after Chu came to the team, it also facilitated the club to carry out various commercial activities.

In short, there are only good things, no bad things.

After hearing Russell's explanation, Samuelson also felt that Chu Zhongtian's return to Wimbledon Sports was definitely a great thing - a big thing and a good thing.

First of all, the team received a strong aid. With Chu Zhongtian's joining, he felt that the team's promotion should be no problem. In addition, Chu Zhongtian's joining is also a thing worth celebrating for Wimbledon Athletic fans. As a world-class superstar who has gone abroad, Chu Zhongtian's influence and fame are beyond doubt. Now such a great person has returned to his starting point and played for his favorite team. What will Wimbledon Athletic fans think?

He is already planning how to prepare a grand and grand franchise ceremony for Chu Zhongtian. Just like the rituals held by Real Madrid for Chu Zhongtian, c. Ronaldo and others, it must reflect the club's attention to Chu Zhongtian's joining the team!

He no longer cared about the embarrassment of being slapped in the face by facts. He was really happy for Chu Zhongtian's joining. He saved the insurance and bought a lottery ticket and said it was impossible to win the prize, but in fact he would still be very happy if he won the prize.

He suddenly thought of Chu Zhongtian’s phone call yesterday… “Hey, Alai. When did you receive Chu’s phone call yesterday?”

"What?" Russell didn't understand why Samuelson asked this question.

Russell recalled: "It was probably around six o'clock in the evening..."

Samuelson recalled that he received a call from Chu as if it was past seven o'clock in the evening.

He understood.

"It seems that Chu gave us a big gift..."

He sighed.

The 10 million pounds gift is indeed very large.

※※※Emily told Chu Zhongtian who was still lying on the bed: "The money has been transferred."

Chu Zhongtian smiled and said, "I hope they like this meeting gift."
