Chapter 1569 Killing
When Li Mu's plane landed at Yanjing Airport, domestic reports about him were overwhelming.
However, the protagonist of the national attention, passed the customs in a low-key manner in the business jet building, and then quickly left the airport in the team of Makino Technology.
Li Mu asked about Anne Hathaway's next itinerary, and Anne said to him, "I may take a day off in Yanjing now, and then book a flight ticket for tomorrow to Huichun City. I will start work in just two days."
Li Mu asked her, "Have you not booked a hotel or flight ticket?"
Anne Hathaway nodded and said, "You should just go to the hotel directly. Just ask the hotel to book the flight ticket when it arrives."
Li Mu thought for a while and then said, "I have a few rooms in my house in Ziyun Villa. If you want, you can stay with me. I'll let you book your flight tickets, and ask the driver to take you to the airport tomorrow."
Anne Hathaway is a girl after all, and she is alone. For her, a foreigner, this is Li Mu's home in China, so she naturally has to do her best as a landlord. Anyway, there are many rooms in the house, so there is nothing wrong with letting her live at home. It is more convenient and safer, and it can also be taken care of more thoughtfully.
However, Anne Hathaway had some misunderstandings in her heart. She felt that Li Mu's invitation was full of ambiguity behind it. She hesitated a little, she suppressed the shyness in her heart, nodded lightly, and said, "Then Excuse me, Mr. Li."
Li Mu was not ready to go to the company because he had just experienced a long cross-ocean flight, so he said to Li Ziwei: "Ziwei, you must be tired from running back and forth these days, go back to rest first, I will go back to Ziyun Villa to rest for a day, Not busy with work today."
Li Ziwei nodded and said, "Then I'll accompany you to Ziyun Villa first, and then I'll go home."
Li Ziwei's house was not far from Ziyun Villa, so Li Mu did not refuse, just wait until he got home, and then let the driver take her back.
On the way home, Li Mu, Anne Hathaway, and Li Ziwei were in the same commercial car. When the convoy entered the airport expressway, in Bencheng, hundreds of kilometers away, Dong Fangzhuo was with his agent. , as well as the club owner and manager sat together to discuss the trade-off between Manchester United and Manchester City.
In fact, there is nothing to discuss about this issue.
Whether it is Dong Fangzhuo himself, his agent, or the club's owner and head coach, they all chose Manchester City in their hearts.
After all, it is Li Mu's football club.
From any point of view, Dong Fangzhuo should not give up this choice.
So, there are only two questions left.
When will the transfer be made and how much is the transfer worth?
Before, the club had been asking Manchester United for an offer of around £4 million. Manchester United had always thought it was too expensive, and according to Manchester United's expectations, they did not want to pay even £1 million.
Manchester United got the deepest thoughts of Dong Fangzhuo's agent and the club. They are all face-saving people who like to pile up the numbers higher, and then hand them over to the media to hype them up, so they proposed an incomparable transfer. The transfer fee was announced as 3.5 million pounds, but the Manchester United club actually only paid 500,000 pounds, and the rest were all written into additional terms, such as future bonuses, goals and expectations.
However, Dong Fangzhuo's club was still tempted by this proposal. Although it only got hundreds of thousands of pounds, when it was announced to the public, it can be said that the city's 3.5 million pounds is not wrong. The value of 350 pounds can be said to be broken for Chinese football players. Their worth is recorded, and in their eyes, it is a very face-saving thing.
Therefore, Dong Fangzhuo's club owner gave his own requirements: "Dong Fangzhuo's actual worth is reported as 1 million pounds, and the rest of the terms are consistent with Manchester United."
Dong Fangzhuo's agent was in a hurry at the time, saying: "Mr. Chen, with Li Mu's ability and connections, it is very convenient to find out the actual price Manchester United made for Xiao Dong. If you let him know, we will give him a higher price than Manchester United. Double, then this is too unreasonable! If the people of the whole country know, they will poke us in the spine."
President Chen said: "Li Mu is so rich, he won't care about that, but this money is too important to our club!"
The agent immediately said: "No one's money comes from the wind, Mr. Chen, you are very rich, but will you buy a pack of cigarettes at double the price? If you go to a local shop to buy cigarettes, In the end, the other party charged you twice the price, how do you feel?"
President Chen couldn't help but smack his lips.
He wanted to make money from Li Mu, because he felt that Li Mu, whose social status had climbed to the top in the businessman circle, could even pay attention to Dong Fangzhuo, which meant that Dong Fangzhuo was indeed of high value. Strength, spending hundreds of thousands of pounds more for the players you are optimistic about is not a big deal, right?
So, he said firmly: "Just report it like this, the actual transfer value of 1 million pounds, the remaining 3 million pounds is written into the contract in the form of bonuses, and the value of 4 million pounds is announced to the public."
"Mr. Chen..." The agent was dumbfounded and blurted out, "Or just report it at the price negotiated with Manchester United."
"No." President Chen waved his hand and said unswervingly, "Just report it like this, and a lot of points."
After that, Mr. Chen said with a smile: "If you want to win, you can make a big one. If you succeed, you will earn. If you don't succeed, you will take a step back and talk to Manchester United!"
For entrepreneurs who are more gambling and greedy, there is no intermediate value between 50 and 100. Either they will earn 100 or 50, and there is no other intermediate number. Instead of struggling to talk to the other party about 60, In his eyes, it is better to quote 100 directly. Bo himself can grasp the pain point of the other party.
When Bincheng Club's offer for Dong Fangzhuo reached Sun Jihai, Sun Jihai was stunned.
Outsiders do not know the situation of the Premier League and Dong Fangzhuo. Sun Jihai has been in the UK for so long, and he naturally understands it very well.
Even if Manchester United has not confirmed the cooperation with Bencheng Club, the transfer fee that Manchester United may pay for Dong Fangzhuo is as high as 600,000 to 700,000 pounds.
But now, the other party actually offered Li Mu a higher price than negotiated with Manchester United, this is just fucking familiar!
Sun Jihai had no choice but to persuade Dong Fangzhuo on the phone: "You must make it clear to your club owner that Li Mu is not a scapegoat. If he kills Li Mu as a scapegoat, he will be the one who will suffer in the end."
Dong Fangzhuo said helplessly: "Brother Hai, I have no choice. The owner of the club insists on this offer. If it is lower than this, he will not let anyone go. Please talk to President Li or the leaders of the club to see what they mean."
Sun Jihai took a long sigh and said, "Zhuozi, your boss is such a goddamn bastard!"
After hanging up, Sun Jihai called Li Ziwei. Li Mu once explained to him that if there was any news about Dong Fangzhuo, he would call her directly.
At this moment, Li Ziwei and Li Mu were sitting in the car together, driving on the Fifth Ring Road, and suddenly received a call from the UK, and realized that it might be Sun Jihai.
After getting through the phone, Sun Jihai conveyed the offer from Bincheng Club to Dong Fangzhuo to Li Ziwei, and Li Ziwei immediately reported it back to Li Mu.
After Li Mu heard the offer of 1 million + 3 million pounds, he was somewhat suspicious. Then he remembered that Dong Fangzhuo's transfer worth in his last life should have been declared to be 3.5 million pounds.
Li Mu speculates carefully for a moment, and realizes that this matter is likely to be caused by the club. The club must think that it wants to buy Dong Fangzhuo, so it temporarily raised the offer.
This approach made Li Mu feel a little chilled for a moment. I struggled to get a Premier League club. It was originally to train Chinese players. Now I want to buy a Chinese player to try to avoid him repeating the mistakes of his previous life. The club even took the opportunity to slap on itself!
Thinking of this, Li Mu felt a little annoyed.
Seeing that Li Mu's face was not right, Li Ziwei hurriedly asked, "Mr. Li, what's the matter with you? Is the offer from the team a bit outrageous?"
Li Mu nodded and said, "Hundreds of thousands of pounds higher than the market price."
Hundreds of thousands of pounds? Li Ziwei was stunned, this amount of money, converted into RMB, is millions of dollars.
Now, the house prices in many places in Yanjing have not exceeded 5,000 yuan. If a set of 500,000 is used, the other party will almost increase the price of ten houses.
Li Ziwei couldn't help saying: "If it's not suitable, we can also not buy this player."
Li Mu sighed and said, "Many businessmen are only concerned with making money, and have no sense of nationality. Everything only depends on personal interests, and there is no national sentiment. For such a guy, he must be punished a little, let him know that money is important. But some money can make it, and some can’t.”
Seeing that Li Mu was in a bad mood, Li Ziwei hurriedly persuaded: "Mr. Li, some people have a narrow vision. You should not have the same knowledge as them. If it's a big deal, we can just buy other players."
Li Mu said to Li Ziwei, "But if this kind of thing is not controlled, it will inevitably happen one after another in the future."
After that, Li Mu added: "I'll tell you a story, in a certain university in the United States, there are dozens of Chinese students studying abroad, because they miss the flavor of their hometown, some of them suddenly decided to start making various domestic food by themselves one day. , and then sell it to students who are also Chinese and miss the taste of their hometown. However, they did not do this for a long time, and they were completely yellow. Even these students were directly repatriated because they did not have a food business certificate. They usually only Doing business with the Chinese in the school, but the police discovered and arrested it not long after doing business, do you know why?"
Li Ziwei shook her head slightly.
Li Mu said: "This is because they were reported, and the person who reported them was the owner of a Chinese restaurant near the school. He felt that these students bought Chinese food in private, which affected the business of his restaurant."
"Ah? Why are you so selfish..." Li Ziwei was surprised.
Li Mu said with a smile: "This is nothing, the most selfish thing is that he knows that these students have no documents, that they will be arrested once they are reported, that they will most likely face deportation after being arrested, and that they are not allowed to He entered the country, but he still called the police, and then all the twenty or thirty students were deported, and their studies were cancelled."
Li Ziwei was silent for a moment, then said, "Actually, if he really spread it out, the person who reported it did nothing wrong. After all, he complied with the local legal system, but his actions are too chilling for the Chinese."
"That's right!" Li Mu nodded and said, "This is what I mean by a sense of nationality. I personally think that everyone, whether at home or abroad, must have a sense of nationality. Only in this way can the Chinese be able to live abroad. Really twisted into a ball, but look at us, whether at home or abroad, we are all pitting our own people, it is simply a mess."
Speaking of this, Li Mu added: "If the proportion of the sense of nationality between the Chinese and the Chinese can be increased, then the level of solidarity and social status of the Chinese overseas will definitely be higher than it is now!"
Li Ziwei said in agreement: "You are right, we like to cheat our own people too much."
Li Mu snorted lightly at this time, and said, "You call the editor-in-chief of YY.com, tell him what happened, and ask him to write a draft with sharp opinions and strict words. The whole people spit it out!"
