Chapter 59 Investment Plan
Barcelona is very rich now, and they really want to keep Shaq. After all, Shaq has brought countless honors to Barcelona in recent years. Even though Shaq is over 30 years old and is not as brave as five years ago, Shaq is still the best shooter on this planet, no one!
A scorer who has scored 1,359 goals in all official competitions, not to mention that he is only thirty years old, even at the age of thirty, can still make great contributions to his team.
Experience, consciousness, and fighting spirit are often irreplaceable!
In order to express his sincerity, in the three-year contract that Barcelona offered Shaq, the annual salary after tax in the first year reached 60 million euros, and then increased by 20% every year, that is, 72 million in the second year and 86.4 million in the third year. With all the bonuses, if Shaq scores 40 goals each year, his income will definitely be over 100 million.
After feeling Barcelona's sincerity, Shaq didn't care much about himself and asked Glenn Oxley to start considering the final contract.
Shaq is not in a hurry to sign the contract. Now he is not the young boy who just came to Spain five years ago to casually follow Simon Grayson. Shaq is now carrying too much, and any decision of his will generate hundreds of millions of economic benefits, even if he renews his contract with Barcelona.
The "Shake Investment Company" that Glen Oxley helped manage is almost all of its businesses that are closely related to Shake. Any Shake's decision will have a significant impact on the company, but over the years, I have made a lot of money by getting news in advance.
Just as Glen Oxley and Barcelona were having a good time talking, a big news broke out in the English media...Bierhof went bankrupt!
Leeds United chairman Bierhoff has declared bankruptcy in Germany due to poor personal investment. Leeds United, which was under his name, was revealed to have owed a huge £120 million in the bank until this time!
Leeds United fans only truly understood why, even though the "Youth Guards" won the Champions League trophy in the past six years, they still did not make a big investment in the transfer market. Instead, they made a profit of 15 million pounds in the transfer in six years. The reason is that Bielhof, who is very careful, had problems with his personal finance, which caused Leeds United to bear huge debts. Even though Leeds United ranked sixth in the Premier League this season, they were deprived of their qualification to play the Europa League next season due to financial problems. The "Red Army" ranked seventh, Liverpool has picked up a bargain and has qualified for European competitions.
The "Young Guards" were immediately taken back by the bank and were ready to be auctioned at any time. The portion of more than 120 million pounds will be handed over to the court to repay other debts of Bierkhov.
At present, Leeds United still has several valuable players. Ashley Hood, Jonny Hausen and Pifkowski all have tens of millions of dollars. In addition, the club's stadium, training base, youth training facilities and other assets, the 120 million pounds reserve price will not fail.
Originally, this news just made Shaq sigh. His mother team, who debuted, was about to change hands again. This kind of thing... will always make people feel sad, but the incident itself has nothing to do with Shaq.
However, a call from Leeds, England forced Shaq to contact the "Young Guards". The person who called this call was... Jonny Hausen!
As the captain of Leeds United, Jonny Hausen's love for his mother team is very profound. He has never thought of leaving for so many years. Even now, his annual salary is only 3.5 million pounds, which is an indescribable and heavy loyalty.
"Shake, I'm Jonny!"
Jonny Hausen's voice seemed very low on the phone. Shaq knew that this must be caused by the fate of Leeds United in an undecided manner, so he immediately said relaxedly: "Hi. Old man, of course I know it's you. How are you doing recently?"
"Not good! Very bad! Very bad!"
"Oh-brother, I know what happened to Leeds United, but it shouldn't have any impact on you. Regardless of who the new boss is, there will definitely be your position on the team."
"I know this, but... Shaq, I... Hey, Shaq, I'll just say it, I think... can you buy Leeds?"
"ah!?"
Shaq thought he had heard it wrong!
Just now...what did this guy Jonny say?
I bought Leeds!?
"Yes! Shaq...you... buy Leeds!"
"Jonny...this...this..."
"Shake, listen to me! Shake, Leeds is our parent team, without her, there would be no you, I, Ben, and many people today! But now she is sick, should we treat her as much as possible?"
Shaq didn't say anything, and remembered the scene in his mind when he suddenly appeared on the training ground at Thorpe Arch training base after his death... and Green took him through the small door... The first professional league goal he scored for Leeds has now scored almost 1,400 goals!
Jonny... When he was comforting his heartbroken self with Ben, even his girlfriend ran away in the end. He got married later than him and his children were younger than his children. This brother...is interesting enough!
"Shak, I know you have the ability to save the team, you know, we have the top youth training system in Europe, Bielhof is a shameful bastard, he doesn't cherish the club, but our club is definitely profitable, we have a fan base, have reputation, and have traditions, so...Shak, please help Leeds!"
Jonny Hausen choked up on the other side of the phone. He didn't know how to run the team. All he had was loyalty and...a passionate heart!
At this moment, Shaq only had one thought left in his mind... Twelve years!
It has been twelve years since I possessed my soul and Zach Thompson!
Twelve years are a cycle of reincarnation for the Chinese!
Reincarnation... Maybe... God has profound significance for his soul to possess and rebirth after death?
Could it be that the emergence of the "Black Feet" system is not just to make yourself the world's number one star, but to save Leeds after completing the accumulation of wealth!?
"Shak! Shak!?"
"Ah, Jonny, I'm here!"
"Shake, please help Leeds! For the sake of our friendship for more than ten years, please help Leeds, okay?"
Jonny Hausen's voice was full of pleading, and Shaq had no doubt that if this good brother was in front of him, he might have kneeled down, right?
"Jonny!"
Shaq had a decision in his mind and said in a serious voice: "Jonny, you know, this is not a small investment, it involves a huge sum of hundreds of millions of pounds, so I need to do a lot of preparation, and this... takes time!"
"Shake, have you decided to help Leeds?"
Hearing Jonny Hausen's surprise, Shaq smiled bitterly and couldn't bear to say anything cruel: "Okay, Jonny, Leeds is also my parent team. If possible... I will help Leeds! But I need time, I need my team to evaluate, I also need..."
"It's okay! It's okay! Shaq! I'm waiting for your good news! Oh, by the way, I, Ashley, Chris, and Ben, we've all been meeting and communicated here in Leeds. If you don't have enough money to buy the team, we're willing to invest all the money in it! If you make a profit, you'll lose money... let's share the burden together!"
Well!
Shaq was stunned. Unexpectedly, there were Ashley Hood, "Little Ben" Chris Farley, and Ben Parker. However, if you consider that they were all trained by Leeds United, except for Ben Parker who transferred to Barcelona for five years, no one else had left the "Youth Guards" before, and you could feel their feelings.
But... these bastards have been studying for a long time, how could they figure out such a solution?
Just throw a huge problem to yourself!
Depend on!
What's the matter with this?
But these guys... are so fucking touching!
"Okay, Jonny, wait for the news. If there is something to do, I will notify you as soon as possible!"
After putting down the phone, Shaq immediately called Glenn Oxley: "Glenn, what are you doing?"
"Shake, of course I'm in Chairman Rossell's office!"
Glenn Oxley's tone was very relaxed. The contract provided by Barcelona to Shaq was really very, very generous, and it was unique in the world's football world!
"Glenn, stop!"
"What? Shaq, do you mean?"
Glenn Oxley's sudden tone made Rossel, who was sitting opposite him, feel worried. In order for Barcelona's performance to continue stably, Rossel has really shown his greatest sincerity this time, but now... things seem to have changed!?
Could it be... other giant teams are coming to poach Shaq!?
"Glenn, please suspend negotiations with Barcelona. I have more important things to see you immediately, and your team, well, all the professionals related to the financial budget, come to me for my home!"
"This...this..."
"Glenn, do what I said!"
When Glen Oxley wanted to say something, Shaq had already hung up the phone, which made Glen Oxley very puzzled. He has worked with Shaq for almost twelve years and he knows very well about this king of football who has come to this day step by step. But now... Glen Oxley feels that he doesn't seem to know Shaq very much. He stopped it when the negotiations with Barcelona reached the final stage. This is not very similar to Shaq's approach!
Chapter completed!
