Chapter 1020 Unbalanced (Part 1)
The last time Guo Tailai took a stake in Milan, he only bought a share, a small shareholder, and the Milan club still has the final say. But this time it was completely different. They bought the entire Tottenham Hotspur club, including all the properties of the club, the training ground, White Hart Lane, the land to which these properties belong, and the contracts of all players, etc. In a word, the Tottenham team now belongs to the Chinese.
Who is Mr. T, many people know, but more people don't know. As a result, countless people began to inquire about Mr. T curiously.
Because of the purchase of a Premier League club, fans across the country began to discuss this matter enthusiastically.
The first reaction of the Huaxia fans who almost heard the news about buying the Premier League club was, bull! The Huaxia people have finally come out with a master, and they have a world-famous team in their hands. so happy.
I have to say that the poor performance of the national football team and the various chaos in the A-League in the past few years have broken the hearts of domestic fans for countless times. That is to say, this year's national football team seems to be improving a little bit, and it may be able to impact the World Cup. There has been no good news in the domestic football world for a long time. Suddenly, in the Premier League, one of the five major leagues in the world, there is a team belonging to Chinese people, and it is also the most popular team in London. Countless fans are suddenly excited up.
Every team in the major leagues has more or less a group of die-hard fans in China. Generally speaking, in most cases, the strong teams have more fans. For example, a traditional strong team like AC Milan and Inter Milan has a great reputation and senior qualifications. The most important thing is that when cultural and sports programs were scarce, there were more broadcasts on CCTV, so there were more people who liked it, and naturally there were more fans.
But in more cases, many domestic fans like to watch football except for some domestic teams, but they don't have a particularly loyal concept of foreign teams. They may just like a certain star. This group of people are not fans of fixed teams, nor do they have any inclinations. They just like to watch beautiful teams play against each other, that's all.
But now that a team belonging to Huaxia popped up all of a sudden, such a large number of neutral fans suddenly became inclined. After all, this is a Huaxia team, so everyone is from Huaxia, so if you like to support it, there is no problem, right?
Almost in an instant, Tottenham Hotspur easily won the favor of countless neutral fans in China. Although they may not become loyal fans immediately, it is also a good thing that there are so many enthusiastic fans!
After being excited, people began to wonder, who is Mr. T, and how did he have the financial resources to buy such a big club? This person bought the team in his personal capacity. Where did he get the money? 300 million U.S. dollars, equivalent to 2.5 billion yuan, the first reaction of those who don't understand is whether this guy is a corrupt element?
Hatred of the rich did not come later, there are people like this in every era, they don’t care how your wealth comes from, as long as you are rich, then you have the original sin. There are quite a few people who think this way.
However, how could domestic and foreign media ignore such big news? Knowing Guo Tailai's public identity, of course we have to dig a lot. The introduction of Mr. T in the media is very detailed. A series of identities are presented.
The first article introduced in the domestic media is the designer and manufacturer of the red flag with the prefix T, and the chief designer of the prosperous age of the red flag. Then in chronological order, the designer of the Mazda RX-7 Ultimate Edition racing car, the designer of the Pagani Zonda T super sports car, and the designer of the Lamborghini Chiron super sports car. This large order must not be wrong, otherwise it will be a big problem.
Among them, the design and manufacturing cost of Dahongqi is RMB 2.5 billion. FAW is a listed company, and those with financial reports can be found. The auction of Mazda racing car model was more than 100 million U.S. dollars that year, which is old news. I don’t know how much the design cost of Zonda T is, because Mr. T has shares in Pagani. The design cost of Lamborghini Chiron is publicized, 800 million US dollars. In other words, the combined design costs of these cars alone exceeded one billion U.S. dollars, more than enough to buy the Tottenham team.
Many people feel unbalanced, and they are even more unbalanced when they look at this. Why does it cost so much for one person to design several cars? It doesn't matter how much they are slaughtered by foreign cars, but the domestic red flag has collected a full 2.5 billion! How can you be so black-hearted towards domestic enterprises? Do you have any spirit of dedication to the country?
The Internet has slowly started to rise. As soon as this argument came out, it was directly followed by people who used data to cover their faces. Before the prosperity of the big red flag appeared, I will not talk about the situation of FAW Hongqi, but only after the prosperity of the big red flag. From the night of the military parade to the end of last year, FAW's financial report showed that more than 400 vehicles of different grades of Shengshi bulletproof models had been delivered, and the cheapest one started at 5 million yuan. The sales alone were close to one year. tens of billions. This is not counting the ordinary version of the Dahongqi Prosperous Age. There are more than tens of thousands of cars in China alone, and the total sales have reached more than 40 billion.
This is not counting the reservations for the bulletproof version that has not been delivered. There are thousands of vehicles in the queue. After all are delivered, there may be hundreds of billions of trillions in output value. The design cost is only 2.5 billion, which is nothing! Several major domestic automobile groups, the combined design cost of the national allocation can exceed tens of billions, right? Which car can be as competitive as the Dahongqi Prosperity?
The international media also dug up the fact that Mr. T is the founder of Taylor G watches, and also has a stake in Audemars Piguet. No way, the flagship of Taylor G’s watches is the best handcrafted by Mr. T. It is impossible to hide it from someone who cares about it. The shareholders of Audemars Piguet are just a small icing on the cake. However, someone interviewed Audemars Piguet, and immediately calculated Audemars Piguet's valuation of the Taylor G sub-brand from the situation of the share exchange that year, at least one billion US dollars.
Why can a watch made by Mr. T sell for tens of millions of dollars? This is already the most expensive watch in the world. It's not the kind of watch studded with diamonds and jewels. It's just exquisite workmanship. The selling price is even higher than that of the top-level watch of a century-old watch like Patek Philippe. So naturally there is an unbalanced argument, such a good craftsmanship, why not dedicate it in China?
The Internet is truly omniscient, and a single photo can silence anyone who makes such claims. In the photo, under the nameplate of the domestic ultra-large-format ultra-high-precision automatic CNC machining center, the eye-catching and familiar T letter mark on the absolute plane base, needless to say, just shut up.
Not to mention that someone with a good deed behind this photo posted a picture with the T prefix of Dahongqi Shengshi, and the black bus next to Dahongqi in the convoy. The T letter mark on the front of the bus and the top Exactly the same as in the photo.
