Chapter 740, Excellent Football Soil
Beckham guessed right, Jin Taige really wanted to tell him something.
"David, I remember you running a few football schools, didn't you?"
Beckham didn't expect that Jin Taige would ask him about this, but he immediately realized that he wanted to invest in a football school!
"Captain, I did run a few football schools, one in London, one in Los Angeles, and one in Cape San Roque in Brazil. But the football schools in London and the United States are not doing very well. The Brazilian football school It's just average. That is, if you ask the captain, if someone else asks, I really feel ashamed."
Jin Taige asked: "Why? Is there a business problem?"
"No, it was caused by the economic depression. Coupled with the pitiful number of students, the operation is not very good." Beckham explained, "If the area where the football school is opened has a good economy and enough students, then as long as the early stage Once the investment is in place, then everything will be fine.”
"Oh, that's what happened."
"Captain, are you planning to invest in a football school?"
"It's just a preliminary idea, and it hasn't taken shape yet. If possible, you can introduce some professionals to me later, and I will ask them for advice. If possible, I can hire a few outstanding football school managers."
"No problem!" Beckham agreed, "I have a few good friends in the football school in London who are veterans of football school management. I will introduce them to you later."
Kim Tag asked a lot about the football school, and Beckham answered them one by one. This allowed Kim Tag to learn a lot.
If my idea can be realized, it can be regarded as a win-win result.
After a day of rectification, Manchester United was led by Woodward himself. The whole Manchester United team, including many of them, took a plane to the distant Eastern Huaguo to conduct a series of warm-up matches and business activities.
Before Jin Taige went to Huaguo, someone had already set foot on the land of Huaguo more than half a month earlier.
He is Wolfe of The Sun.
Now Wolf is completely convinced by Jin Taige. He was able to predict the miracle of Leicester City at the beginning of the season. Although the Blue Foxes did not win the championship in the end, the runner-up in the league was enough to make them proud for a long time. And the next season will be the first time they have reached the Champions League and also created team history.
Wolff doesn't care about Leicester City's performance, what he cares about is the bet.
At the beginning of last season, Wolff and Kintag bet again, using whether Leicester City can get a European seat, that is, whether they can get sixth in the league, as the judging standard. If Jin Taige loses, then he will personally donate a bet of 1 million euros to the "Sun"; and if the "Sun" loses, then they must donate 5 million to the west of Huaguo in the name of "The Sun" Euro education funds, and Wolf will go to the most difficult place in the west of Huaguo to do volunteer work for half a month.
There is no doubt about the final result, Jin Taige wins simply and neatly, and "The Sun" loses completely.
As for the education fund of 5 million euros requested by Kintag, the "Sun" has already paid it to the government of a poor province in the west of Huaguo according to the agreement, which is a lot. This amount of money made the officials of that province ecstatic. They did not expect that they would actually get the pie that fell from the sky, 5 million euros, which is really a lot of money.
The "Sun" also specially sent people to supervise to ensure that the money was used for education. And Wolfe went to the West to do a volunteer job for a period of time, and he was also deeply touched.
Because of the local image problem, the officials of that province did not arrange for Wolfe to do volunteer work in the mountainous area. Instead, they sent him to a sports school in the provincial capital and became a temporary sports coach.
Wolfe has been in the "Sun" for many years and has been reporting football news. He is also in good health and often participates in community games.
So the role of physical education teacher is just right for him.
But this trip to Huaguo surprised Wolfe a lot.
Unexpectedly, there are so many children who love football in Huaguo, a country with a backward level of football!
Most of the students in this sports school are children around the age of 10. Their love for football exceeds Wolff's imagination. And through Wolfe's years of experience as a football reporter, he found that there are many good candidates among these children!
If they can be helped to improve their tactics and awareness, then these children will become very good football players in the future!
With the population of this province, it has already exceeded the total population of the United Kingdom! And the huge Huaguo, with such rich resources, rich people, and huge population base, why can't it produce world-class football players?
Wolfe couldn't understand it very much. With his keen sense of smell as a reporter for many years, he felt that this matter was very strange.
He asked the school principal and government officials, but got no answer. The people who were asked were all secretive, hesitating to speak, not daring to speak too much.
During his stay in Huaguo, Wolfe reported his experiences in The Sun every day, and the stories of those junior football apprentices in Huaguo also made the Englishmen in Europe very curious.
Half a month of volunteer work is over. After Wolfe left China, the "Sun" published a special issue to tell about his experience in China. In it, Wolfe talked about China's rich football resources, which made many Europeans very envious.
Many European investors are even ready to move and want to do something.
But they did not expect that the first shot was Manchester United.
Before Jin Taige went to Huaguo, he went to see his boss, Glazer, to discuss a major matter with him.
"Are you planning to invest in a football school in Huaguo?" Glazer asked.
Jin Taige nodded: "That's right. Huaguo has rich football resources, and there are many talented children. If we can open a Manchester United football school there, we will definitely gain a lot."
Glazer was silent. A while ago, although he promised Jin Taige, if he planned to use the remaining funds for investment, he would definitely support it. But now the situation has changed. He actually has nearly 300 million funds in his hand, which is completely beyond Glazer's expectations. He even had the urge to recover part of the funds here. But considering that this might anger Jin Taige and violate the spirit of his contract, he had no choice but to give up.
But now hearing Jintag's investment advice, Glazer remained silent and thought for a long time...
