Chapter 849 Spend Money!

Things happened just as Yang Dongxu and Laporta thought. The next day, the headlines on the front page of the media said that a tyrant who only knows how to spend money, an absolute dictator, came to the wealthy Barcelona.

Not only did the club's chairman, who made the decision on his own, not hold a democratic election, but he also appointed the team's head coach, not allowing others to have opinions at all, and absolutely not discussing with others.

At the same time, Luis Figo's transfer to the mortal enemy Real Madrid pushed Barcelona to the forefront. Originally, this kind of transfer to the enemy would definitely be criticized by thousands of people.

But now the pot of this transfer is completely thrown on Yang Dongxu, the big boss who acquired Barcelona. It is believed that it was his boss Luis who chose the transfer, and choosing to transfer back to the mortal enemy Real Madrid is the biggest response to his dissatisfaction with the big boss of Barcelona.

"Fuck, this is crazy to blame me, whether I buy Barcelona or not, they will transfer to Real Madrid, okay? I haven't signed the last share agreement yet, and when I completely took over Barcelona, ​​they had already started flirting with each other about the transfer back. The previous news reported it, are you blind?"

Seeing the newspapers that cursed people in the past few days, Yang Dongxu's face was full of black lines. Laporta, who was sitting opposite him, also had two big dark circles under his eyes.

Compared with Yang Dongxu being alone in Spain and having no social circle, he is a native Spaniard. In addition to being bombarded by the media in the past few days, being called the biggest accomplice of Barcelona's decline by members who left the club, and players smashing the glass of his house, there are all kinds of pressure from friends and family. He feels that he is about to become neurotic now.

"How is the negotiation with Zidane going?" Yang Dongxu asked.

Although he had expected this result before, he didn't expect the fierce media bombardment and fans' demonstrations to be so great. He must speed up the process of buying stars now, otherwise it will be fun if the Spanish Football Association imposes a ban on him to protect the fans, or asks him to sell the team in his hands.

"It's still being discussed, but he prefers to renew his contract with Juventus. He is likely to be elected FIFA Footballer of the Year this year. Although this selection mainly depends on the results of the previous season, the results will not be announced until December this year. By then, this season has already started for quite some time, and poor performance will have a great impact on the votes." Laporta said helplessly.

If Zidane is dug in first according to his boss's plan, it can indeed offset at least half of the current pressure. But now Zidane can't be negotiated, then it's a waste.

"60 million!"

"Huh?" Laporta was stunned.

"60 million transfer fee, you go and negotiate the rest as soon as possible. If he is still unwilling to pay this price, then change another star to talk, or change two stars to talk. In short, the fans must see the current team's enhanced performance as soon as possible to make them quiet down." Yang Dongxu threw the newspaper in his hand on the table.

He doesn't care about the media, because they are all nonsense reports, and they are often slapped in the face. It's mainly the fans. No matter how the media incites and bombards, as long as the fans are quiet, the interests of the Football Association will not be threatened. They will stand aside and watch the media quarrel and spit.

Laporta's heart beat violently and his face flushed instantly. 60 million, that's 60 million US dollars. Luis Figo transferred to his mortal enemy Real Madrid. The club bit the other side hard and only paid a transfer fee of 56.1 million US dollars. This is already the highest transfer fee in football this year.

But his rich boss is simply not a human being. In order to win Zidane, he directly spent a full 60 million. Zidane must be Figo's good? This is a matter of opinion.

In Yang Dongxu's mind, Zidane is definitely worth this price, because Zidane will be a big shot on the court in the next few years and his value will only increase. This transfer fee is definitely worth it.

But in the eyes of others who don't know the future, Figo and Zidane are actually on par. More importantly, Zidane is already 28 years old this year. According to the five-year contract renewal time between Juventus and Zidane, this is almost the last long contract of Zidane's career.

And signing such a late-career contract with an old player, no matter how hot the old player is now, how outrageous his performance is, there is a huge risk that cannot be avoided - injury.

Such a player will be completely smashed in your hands if you don't handle it well, and even directly drag the club into your quagmire. But looking at the boss, it seems that he doesn't take the money seriously, and he is determined to take Zidane.

"Within a week, if he doesn't come, someone else will come." Laporta patted his chest and promised.

Although he and others had felt that he, the big boss, was useless except for being rich, but at this time, waving 60 million to buy a superstar, this feeling is simply too good.

"Tell him about the other stars that the team wants to recruit, and guarantee that we will try our best to work with whoever he wants to play with, anyway, get him!" Yang Dongxu emphasized again.

Laporta nodded vigorously. With a transfer fee of 60 million for the world's No. 1 player, there is only one obstacle that prevents Zidane from coming to Barcelona, ​​and that is the performance after the start of the new season, after all, he wants to win the Footballer of the Year.

However, if the recruitment is strong, it will undoubtedly be better to convince the other party. Although gathering a group of superstars may not necessarily produce too good results, and even if they play like a bunch of scum, the Footballer of the Year may be lost.

But it is really cool to introduce so many superstars, and both players and fans will be excited to play with so many superstars. At least from the perspective of media and fan reactions, the more superstars there are, the more attention they can attract, so that more people can know them and expand their influence. Paper strength is also strength.

After waving to Laporta for this year's $150 million signing check, Laporta looked at his big boss and felt that he needed a bottle of quick-acting heart-saving pills.

Adding the previous $56.1 million transfer fee of Luis Figo, Barcelona can wave money in its hands this year to $200 million. This is simply too rich to be rich. If the transfer fees of other team members are also counted, it is simply.

You know, even the giants in Serie A have to hesitate again and again when introducing superstars, and Real Madrid traded several players when they took Luis, and even asked many shareholders to pay out of their own pockets to make up for this sky-high transaction, which is currently the first transfer this year.

Laporta, the club president who is now criticized by the outside world as an accomplice of Barcelona's decline, holds more than 200 million US dollars or even more in his hands. He feels that he must go to the hospital to have a good check-up of his heart in the next few days.

After spending a lot of money, Yang Dongxu is ready to return to China. This time, the acquisition of Barcelona and the current big spending have emptied his pockets. So let's see if he can sell a few pieces of land to make up for the loss after returning to China. After all, his capital chain is very tight after just buying the bottom of the world's Internet industry.

But before boarding the plane, he was called by the chairman of the Spanish Football Association, Bilal, to have coffee. Yang Dongxu has never met Bilal.

However, he is very familiar with the negotiation team for the previous acquisition of Barcelona. After all, if you don't reach some agreement on the transaction with the Football Association to acquire a Spanish giant like Barcelona, ​​you may not be able to complete the acquisition so smoothly.

"Young Oriental, I am under great pressure now. The complaint box of the Football Association is full every day." Bilal, who is a little bald, said very directly to Yang Dongxu.

"I know, let's do this for three days. After three days, I will hold a press conference to help you share the pressure." Yang Dongxu said.

"I think that's not enough. After all, the team still needs the results to speak. And now Barcelona has been torn down by you, and it's not even as good as a second-rate team. The fans are very dissatisfied." Bilal said with a serious face.

To be honest, he doesn't know whether it was right or wrong to agree to the guy in front of him to acquire Barcelona. As the chairman of the Spanish Football Association, he hopes that La Liga can get better and better.

But now Serie A is the world's top league and La Liga cannot become the boss, so he wants to introduce some foreign capital to stimulate the development of La Liga.

After all, although the team competes for strength and results, when the teams are all giants with similar historical backgrounds, the real fight is all about money.

For example, a few days ago, Real Madrid signed Luis Figo with the highest transfer fee this year, which instantly attracted the attention of fans around the world to La Liga and suppressed Serie A.

This should have been something worth drinking a glass of joy for him, but Barcelona has angered everyone during this period, suppressing the heat of this happy thing, and it is full of luck and abuse everywhere, and it may even make Barcelona, ​​a La Liga giant, completely sink, which is undoubtedly the thing he least wants to see.

He introduced other capital for the better development of La Liga, not to make La Liga a stinking shit for fans all over the world to laugh at, so he said that he was under great pressure, not to complain, but he was really under great pressure during this period.

"I'll make a call first." Yang Dongxu said.

Bilal frowned and looked a little unhappy, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he took a sip of coffee. He wanted to see what this oriental boy was going to do.

A few minutes later, Yang Dongxu hung up the phone: "If there is no accident, the press conference in three days will give you a surprise, and then you can sleep peacefully, without worrying that fans will send you any threatening cards or even go to your residence to squat and beat you up."

"I hope what you said is true. If you know that I am not young anymore, I can't stand such stimulation." Bilal looked at Yang Dongxu.

Yang Dongxu looked at him very seriously. He nodded after confirming that the other party was serious and not joking with him or perfunctory.

"Don't worry, this is definitely a big surprise. If you still can't sleep after the press conference, there is only one possibility. That is, La Liga will completely rise from Barcelona and surpass Serie A, and you are so happy that you can't sleep." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

"I am looking forward to your performance, young man. If you can do what you said, I may suggest that you become a member of the Football Association, or even vice president. It is not certain that you will become the chairman in the end." Bilal's serious face dropped and smiled.

"Then cheers for our victory." Yang Dongxu raised the coffee cup in his hand.

But he cursed in his heart, MMP, the pie he painted for the old man in front of him would be realized soon, and the future described by the other party to him was... well... just a description.
