Chapter 981 Capital Needs to Be Operated

The case was handled quickly by Airbus, and the French police quickly gave the result. No matter how Rima protested, Yang Dongxu still flew to Spain smoothly, and he would not be restricted from appearing on camera because of such a small case.

Coming to Spain again feels completely different from before. He came to Spain to acquire Barcelona before, but in the eyes of the Spaniards, he is an enemy. No one believes that a person from a football desert country can bring the giant Barcelona out of the abyss, but thinks that he will push Barcelona into a deeper abyss.

But a year has passed, and those who protested or even abused him before have to feel the "really fragrant" theorem at this time. Barcelona's outstanding performance has made both Barcelona fans and Spaniards ignore the nationality of the boss behind Barcelona.

They began to cheer for Zidane on the field, cheer for Ronaldinho, and even cheer for a brave Oriental striker. Then they vigorously ridiculed the former captain of Barcelona who betrayed Barcelona to Real Madrid, the mortal enemy, and seemed to transfer all the abuse and resistance to Yang Dongxu to the former captain who made them love him before.

"This is the commercial endorsement contract just signed this year and the newly negotiated broadcasting rights, ticket revenue." In the office of the Barcelona club, Laporta and head coach Frank sat next to Yang Dongxu, and Laporta's assistant placed documents and financial statements in front of Yang Dongxu.

Last year, Barcelona spent money like water. Laporta, the president of the club, deeply felt what it means to spend money lavishly, and he felt scared when he spent it. He almost became more scared than when he just became the president of the club and worried about being fired at any time.

But Yang Dongxu's full trust, coupled with the complete release of the club and his full support, made his mentality gradually stabilized. Together with head coach Frank, he handed in a somewhat regrettable but absolutely excellent answer sheet for last season.

The lavish spending of money to dig stars at all costs directly formed a superstar battleship that even Real Madrid could not catch up with. Naturally, the financial report of the Barcelona club last year was unbearable to read, and it directly caused a big loss.

But at this time, no one felt that Barcelona, ​​which lost a lot of money last season, would enter a financial crisis. Instead, everyone was very optimistic about Barcelona, ​​and the prices of various endorsements and broadcasting rights were higher and higher.

In addition, the stars who came to Barcelona basically played their due value, and when they were poached with high salaries, the club had a certain share of the endorsement contracts of these stars or the right to use their personal portraits.

In other words, the bigger the star of the team, the higher the endorsement fee when shooting advertisements, the more money the team gets from it, plus the skyrocketing broadcasting rights prices, the hot sales of jerseys, souvenirs and tickets, and the income from membership fees.

Laporta, who was terrified of spending money last year, felt what it means to make money at an awesome speed this year. There are still many large-income contracts that have not been negotiated, but it can be expected that the team will make a profit this year instead of a loss.

The team achieved profitability in the second year after the formation of the super battleship. This statement shocked everyone, and the peers were so envious that their eyes were red.

You should know that if you look at the bills of football clubs, nine out of ten football clubs are losing money, and the only one that is not losing money has a very touching profit amount.

For example, when Real Madrid formed the Galaxy Battleship, they spent tens of millions of euros to dig a star, and the cost of players alone in a season exceeded 300 million euros.

Add to that the team's other operating expenses and logistical expenses, and it is easy to spend 300 to 400 million euros in a season. As the value of players continues to soar, this cost is increasing rapidly every year.

Occasionally, a profit of several million euros will make the club owner ecstatic. If the profit can reach tens of millions of euros, this profit is not even half of the value of some card-playing stars, but it is already a bumper year.

In short, from the club's accounts, a football club that can make an annual profit of more than 10 million euros is definitely the father-level existence among all football clubs.

Such a situation will undoubtedly surprise people who don't know the inside story. Shouldn't the club make the most money?

After all, the stars are working for the team, and the club is the boss. How can the boss's income be lower than that of the players?

But this is indeed the fact. In short, not losing money is the wish of every football club. If it can achieve not losing money, the boss must give red envelopes and bonuses to the club chairman to thank him.

So after the reorganization, Barcelona was able to make a profit in the second season, despite the huge loss it made in the previous season. Although it is only an expectation at present, the result may not be as optimistic as it seems on the surface.

But as long as it does not lose money, it is definitely a success, so Laporta's wrinkles at the corners of his eyes have become dense because he laughed too much during this period.

And the club has lost hundreds of millions of euros in the past year, and the best profit result of the club is to make tens of millions of euros every year. Will Yang Dongxu have to wait for decades to recover his investment?

Or if there are any twists and turns in it, Barcelona's annual income is at most a few million euros, or even a loss, then he has lost a lot?

In fact, it is not. From the book, it does take decades to recover the previous investment, and this does not even count the investment that needs to be increased in the future. For example, this time he is going to equip the Barcelona team with an exclusive team private jet, which is another large investment.

But such investment is worth it. Just relying on the club's profit rate on the books, such investment is indeed a loss. But from another perspective, Yang Dongxu has made a lot of money.

For example, this year the valuation of Barcelona Club has risen by 30%. If the performance in the new season is stable, and Ronaldo returns to stimulate another wave, it is not a problem to increase it by 50% compared with last year.

Even if there is definitely some water in it, the appreciation rate of the team is faster than Yang Dongxu's investment. And Barcelona team belongs to Yang Dongxu personally, and the appreciation of the team is equivalent to the appreciation of his assets.

And some people may feel that these appreciations are real estate that cannot be sold, that is, the price looks very high, but it is actually not circulated. Just like some people who buy houses, they say that their assets are millions or tens of millions.

But 99% of the assets are the purchased houses. They only earn a few thousand yuan a month from work. If they don't sell the house, they can't even buy a good car, and their daily life is also tight.

But this problem is not a problem for Yang Dongxu, who can already be called a capitalist. For example, ordinary people who take out mortgages for houses may not be able to repay the loans in the end and put their houses into the loan.

If Yang Dongxu asks the Barcelona club for a loan from a bank, countless banks will be eager to lend him money, and various preferential and low-interest policies will be thrown at him without any money.

In this way, the real estate that seems useless and only has valuation becomes fresh funds that he can control. He doesn't even have to pay back the money, and he can borrow more money.

For example, the Barcelona team's performance is getting better and better, and the team's value is steadily increasing. After the loan expires, it can be converted into a new loan to continue to get money from the bank instead of paying it back.

Of course, there are certain risks in playing this way. If you don't do it well, you will collapse. But for Yang Dongxu, the risk is controllable because he has many high-quality companies under his control. Even if Barcelona's performance becomes shit next year, and the team's valuation collapses on the edge of the cliff, he has the ability to repay the loan, and at worst, bankruptcy and liquidation are fine. In short, there are too many operating methods.

As for whether the bank will see this risk, it will naturally see that when the club's performance declines, the bank will definitely consider the issue of loan waving.

But before that, the increase in the valuation of the Barcelona team every year will make the bank feel that this is a cost-effective investment. Although no specific funds have been recovered to the bank, this investment is indeed increasing in value.

Such an excellent investment is also good news for the bank, and then stocks, depositors, bonds, and a lot of products can make profits with this benefit, and the bank has started to make money even though the loan has not been recovered.

So there are no fools in capital. You see that you are taking advantage of others, but in fact, they are also using you to make money. In short, everyone is frantically trying in their own controllable risks and unknown risks. If they succeed, they will put a lot of profits into their pockets, and if they fail, they will delete their accounts and leave.

After reading a lot of information, Yang Dongxu understood the general situation, and then handed the rest of the work to his assistant team to handle. Although these things are troublesome, they must be reviewed and carefully reviewed by themselves.

Normally, you delegate power, and you throw in large sums of money. Although you only control the general direction and don't ask about the specific details, you must give your employees the perception that you are always paying attention to the team, so that they will not think that you don't ask anything and deceive your superiors and subordinates.

"How is the physical condition of the team players?" After signing some reviewed documents, Yang Dongxu looked at Wang Chengzhi who was sitting next to him.

Now Wang Chengzhi is responsible for the physical training and injury treatment of the players on the Barcelona team, and Zhao Yumin is the team doctor of the NBA 76ers team.

Both of them have obtained medical qualifications in Europe and the United States, which fills the loophole of becoming a team doctor before. In addition, they learn from some Western professional team doctors and trainers. At present, both the team doctors of Barcelona and the 76ers are not the best in the world. But they are definitely among the top three in terms of extremely low injuries and the physical condition of old players.

Especially the continuous good news about Ronaldo's recovery from injury has made many teams and stars look at Barcelona's team doctors with new eyes. Even many stars who are troubled by injuries are more concerned about Barcelona when they can transfer.

It doesn't matter if the transfer fee and signing fee are a little lower. If I play for Barcelona, ​​I can get better physically, and then I can get good results and many championship trophies. After that, I can double the money I lost before.

"The physical condition of the team's players is still good, but professional athletes will have more or less injuries. So I have been discussing with coach Frank these days to give the players a rest when the pre-season games are not very intense. But this may affect the club's performance." Wang Chengzhi said.
