Volume 1: When Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention. Chapter 110: Mubarak’s Sense of Superiority (First Update, Please Vote for Me)

Chapter 110 Mubarak’s sense of superiority (first update, please vote for me)

The next day, Mubarak was blocked outside Manchester City's office building by a large group of media, who insisted that he talk about the purchase of Chen Yingxiong.

In addition to reporters, there were also Manchester City fans who held banners demanding that the club not introduce Chen Yingxiong. Because Chen Yingxiong is their sworn enemy!

Seeing Mubarak appear, they started shouting: "No Yingxiong Chen! We don't need Yingxiong Chen! We have Aguero, he is the best!"

Mubarak smiled and waved to the Manchester City fans to indicate that he heard them. Then he turned to the reporters and said: "Have you all seen it? It's all rumors, everything is rumors. How could Manchester City buy Chen Yingxiong? I'm sorry, we are not interested in him, no matter how good he is..."

After saying that, he turned around and entered the building. The reporters still wanted to break in, but were blocked by four burly men, who stared blankly at the reporters.

The reporters immediately stepped back knowingly.

Anyway, they have received an official reply from Manchester City Club. They did not buy Chen Yingxiong. It seems that this is just a rumor...

Maybe it was Chen Yingxiong's agent who released it just to ask for an exorbitant price when negotiating a contract with Liverpool.

Yes, the truth must be like this... This kind of thing has happened too many times in world football, and reporters have long been used to it.

As a wealthy club, Manchester City is quite suitable to play the role of the "foolish guy with lots of money".

Since the chairman of Manchester City Club has personally denied the news, then hurry back and release the latest news!

※ ※ ※

As Mubarak was mobbed by reporters outside his club, almost the same thing was happening thirty-one miles away in Melwood, Liverpool.

Niang, the general manager of Liverpool FC, was blocked at the door by a large group of reporters and fans.

"You can't sell a hero, Lu!"

"Heroes are truly not for sale!"

"You wouldn't really sell out the hero, would you?"

Seeing him, the fans rushed away from the reporters and crowded in front of Niang.

Unlike in Manchester, here the fans are the real protagonists.

Seeing the anxious and enthusiastic Liverpool fans, Niang waved and said loudly: "Yes, I will not sell him! The hero is my brother and friend! How could I betray my friend? Don't worry! I will sell him again!" I repeat - heroes are not for sale at Liverpool!"

He puts a heavy emphasis on the word "not for sale."

Those who are interested will naturally know what he means.

After saying that, he ignored the reporters and walked into the Melwood training base.

He no longer needed to say anything to the reporters. What he wanted to say was all here. He believed that the reporters who had been standing by with their ears pricked up would not miss anything.

※ ※ ※

It is true that Liverpool will not sell Chen Yingxiong, but do Manchester City really have no intention of buying Chen Yingxiong?

Although he denied the transfer rumors to the fans and reporters, Mubarak did not intend to give up on the acquisition just like that.

What do fans think?

He never took the fans' opinions into consideration. For him, he only needs to answer to the Nahyan family who hired him. The fans are not his employers, so why does he care so much?

Don’t buy Chen Yingxiong? Why should I be intimidated by a few fans?

He didn't even have to call his boss Mansour for advice anymore, he could make the decision himself.

Buy it, definitely buy it, keep working hard to buy it!

He must bring Chen Yingxiong to the Etihad Stadium. This is not only to fulfill the boss's instructions, but also to make his name in history!

How could he give up on something so challenging?

But before proceeding, he had to make a call to Liverpool. He doesn’t want his quotation to be revealed by someone again. This will make him very passive!

He picked up the phone, thought about it, and then dialed a number.

※ ※ ※

Not long after Niang sat down in the office, he received a call from an unknown number.

He waited for the ring to ring several times before picking up.

"Hello, Mr. Lu." There was a polite voice over there. "I am Kaldoun Al Mubarak, chairman of Manchester City Club. I think we may have some misunderstanding?"

After listening to Mubarak's words, Niang discovered that Manchester City Club was not here to tease him, but really wanted to buy Chen Yingxiong!

"Yes, that's it, we are really interested in the hero. I think we can pay enough transfer fee to buy him..." Mubarak said.

Although he understood Manchester City's thoughts, Niang did not forgive them for this.

He snorted: "Are you really sincere?"

Hearing his rhetorical question, Mubarak was not angry or panicked. On the contrary, he was very happy.

Because if Niang hangs up the phone no matter how he explains it, it means that the two parties can't talk at all.

Although Niang's reaction was not friendly enough, it made Mubarak aware of the opportunity to continue negotiations.

As a business master, he understands the psychology of his negotiating opponents very well. Niang's performance now means that the window has not been closed yet.

"If you are sincere, why is your offer only 50 million pounds?"

really!

Upon hearing Niang's question, Mubarak laughed silently, with a very obvious upward arc on his face.

Do you think the quote is too low? It doesn't matter, what we at Manchester City lack most is money!

"The £50 million is just a trial for us."

"So have you now gotten the answer you were hoping for?" Niang asked calmly.

"I hope that next time when we make an offer, it will not be leaked by people from your club. You must know that the transaction between us is secret. Goodbye, Mr. Lu."

After speaking, Mubarak hung up the phone.

Niang didn't put the phone down, but stared at it.

Although Mubarak kept saying "sir" and seemed very polite, Niang could hear his sense of superiority from deep inside.

Where did he come from with this sense of superiority?

Niang thought about it in his mind. They all work for others, so they act like servants and feel superior? He couldn't figure it out.

※ ※ ※

Niang figured it out quickly.

money.

It's money.

It was money that gave Mubarak this sense of superiority, just like a nouveau riche would feel a sense of superiority when he sees a poor man, because he is richer than a poor man, he can drive a luxury car and eat a lot. Eat, play with beautiful women, and even have enough money to do many boring things. Then he looked at those poor people with pity, struggling and wallowing in the quagmire, unable to earn enough for a meal in their lifetime.

How happy it is to see others doing worse than yourself, what a sense of superiority this is!

Manchester City is richer than Liverpool, and Mubarak Binan is richer, so he has such a sense of superiority - if you Liverpool want to buy a hero, just set a price, no matter how much it is, we at Manchester City can afford it!

Because this time Manchester City offered a price of 80 million pounds.

It was still a secret offer, but seeing this offer, Niang understood where Mubarak's sense of superiority came from, and at the same time he also understood that Manchester City Club seemed to be bound to win this time, and they were determined to take it. Chen Yingxiong was taken away from Liverpool.

snort!

Niang snorted.

It's only 80 million pounds, which is only 10 million pounds higher than Chen Yingxiong's original net worth. Do you really think that we are poor people who have never seen money?

reject!

※ ※ ※

Mubarak was not surprised at all by Liverpool's reaction.

If Chen Yingxiong can be taken away from Liverpool for 80 million pounds, then it is not worth Chen Yingxiong's efforts to lure him from Liverpool to the Etihad.

He decided to set another price.

Generally speaking, expiring at a new price so eagerly will only let the other party know that it wants to urgently bring in this player, and then the other party can ask for a sky-high price.

But Mubarak is not afraid. If the other party just asks for a high price, it will save trouble for him. Because all problems that can be solved with money are not problems at all!

He even wanted to force Liverpool to only talk with them about money.

Although Niang told him clearly that Chen Yingxiong was not for sale by Liverpool, Mubarak felt that the so-called not for sale was just because his asking price was not high enough.

※ ※ ※

After both clubs denied the transfer rumors, the news that Manchester City wanted to buy Chen Yingxiong quickly disappeared.

Everything is as if nothing happened.

It looked calm.

But is it really so?

In fact, many people think that the matter is not that simple. The sudden transfer rumors broke out and were confirmed by the "Liverpool Echo". Didn’t Liverpool Football Club officially deny this matter? Their responses were "Heroes are not for sale" and "We will not sell Chen Yingxiong", but they did not say "This thing does not exist at all, it is all nonsense!" Such subtle differences can naturally be discerned by those who are interested. taste.

※ ※ ※

Niang has received another offer from Manchester City.

This time the offer was directly mentioned as 100 million pounds.

Niang held the fax and chewed his teeth.

"Oh...if the media finds out about this quotation, I don't know what kind of bloody storm will happen..."

One hundred million pounds, what a sky-high price!

But do you think you can get rid of us with such a small amount of money?

Innocent!

reject!

※ ※ ※

Niang and Mubarak were fighting fiercely, and Chen Yingxiong was also affected by transfer rumors.

To be honest, he really didn't know about this, and Dracula didn't deceive the media. Mubarak actually went to Liverpool directly instead of going to Chen Yingxiong first.

Perhaps he feels that the most difficult thing to deal with in this transfer is the club. If the main offer can get the club to open the door, it will definitely be a piece of cake for the player.

When the time came for him to offer a weekly salary of 300,000 pounds, he wouldn't believe that Chen Yingxiong wouldn't come over!

You must know that the current maximum weekly salary is only 200,000 euros, which is still far from 300,000 pounds.

Professional players, why do you come out to play football? Isn’t it just to make money?

Is there anyone who has trouble with money?

No. Absolutely impossible!

So Mubarak felt that as long as the club was taken care of, Chen Yingxiong would be a piece of cake.

Even if he had some misunderstandings with the Manchester City club and fans before, under the financial interests, what grudges can't be let go? Are there too many examples of people who used to be rivals but later became teammates and then complimented each other?

But this time, Mubarak’s experience does not seem to work, whether it is against Liverpool or Chen Yingxiong...
