Text Chapter 176: Kroenke's Probe
Then several other aunts also spoke, and these words were not casual. Although the Association for the Protection of Rights and Interests of Chinese Americans is a non-governmental organization, it has also done some necessary investigations, and made relevant domestic calls to contact this person's usual behavior.
In addition, after communicating with the child, I was sure that there was a misunderstanding. When I was in China, I was afraid that the child would run around. When there was no one at home, I would lock the door for safety. Not only is it afraid of children running around, but also to prevent thieves.
Combined with the information and the report of the person concerned, this person is indeed a wronged person. Zhou Jiexi also called his friends in San Francisco, and asked them to submit the necessary materials, as well as local guarantors, etc. After completing the procedures, he hoped that they would not sue.
Speaking of which, this is also illegal. There is also the local Children's Rights Protection Association, Zhou Jiexi also called a person in charge. We met each other at the reception. Her husband is a government member, and his wife usually works in charity and non-governmental organizations.
After some phone calls, the matter was initially resolved to a certain extent. But Zhou Jiexi was obviously a little upset, using his own favor to do things for others, no matter how you look at it, he was at a disadvantage, right? Seeing his mother happily talking to a few aunts, he thought for a while, he should discuss this matter with his mother at night.
He has been in the United States for so long, and he has never suffered a loss. The current situation made him, who was a little narrow-minded, think about it, and he was indeed at a disadvantage.
"Mr. Zhou, your phone number is from England!" Assistant Mary walked over with the phone and said.
"Whose one?" Zhou Jiexi asked her, since he didn't call into his private number, it is obvious that there is no one who needs it.
"Mr. Kroenke Stein!" Mary reported quickly.
Zhou Jiexi said hello in his heart, why is this silent Stan calling him. They didn't socialize much. When I was about to enter the NBA, I had exchanges with the owner of the Denver Nuggets. There were also a few times when he held a reception, or when Kroenke held a reception, everyone invited each other and so on.
Thinking about what he would be looking for recently, Zhou Jiexi was already answering the phone. He said in a relaxed and happy tone: "Hey, Kroenke, I was really surprised to receive your call!"
"Hehe..." The other side laughed lightly and said, "I can only say I'm sorry, young man, I don't usually like calling things like that."
"Okay, let's keep it simple, what do you want from me?" Zhou Jiexi had already reached the door, and he didn't have the heart to talk nonsense with this old guy, so he asked directly.
"Hehe..." The other side still didn't get to the point right away, "I have to congratulate you first, after having four super popular stars, your Warriors team's income this year will definitely increase a lot!"
"This is for sure!" Zhou Jiexi didn't want to go around in circles, but if the old man liked it, he didn't mind talking about his own things: "I've calculated it a long time ago. According to the current popularity, after years of Sponsorships, tickets, jerseys, and other merchandise. There will be plenty of sales growth, and it will definitely not be a little bit!"
"You know, behind me is an Asian market of two billion people. This will be a fat piece of fat, and all I have to do is lie down and bite off a piece of meat."
Kroenke is indeed jealous. Compared with Jessie Zhou's Warriors, his Denver Nuggets are really far behind. What I'm talking about here is not basketball strength, but the simplest way to attract fans' popularity and market potential, and this is also the best intuitive reflection of the team's profitability.
The Warriors, which now has four superstars, can bring benefits to the Warriors in all aspects and bring stronger advertising benefits. Tianchao is now a big spender, a team owner of Chinese descent like him, and a team player of Chinese descent. I think it will get a lot of attention, which means that a bunch of Fortune 500 companies want their advertising space.
"This is really annoying to me!" Kroenke Stein said.
"Hehe...don't mind buddy, this is just a joke, if you think it's okay, we can play a preseason game, it's obviously good for everyone!" Zhou Jiexi said.
"The combination of the Big Four can really attract fans to buy tickets!" Kroenke once envied the man Jessie Zhou. The young guy always made him feel that his success over the years was due to him. Edge is not worth mentioning at all.
"Well young man, I think we'd better change the subject!"
"Anything, what do you want to say?" Zhou Jiexi asked.
"Recently, Arsenal fans in the UK have a lot of opinions on the board of directors and management. You know the results of the team this year. It is indeed not ideal!" Kroenke said to him.
"Hmm! Is there any problem? I have heard the report from the agent about the team. Wenger may not have much talent on the road to winning the championship in the past few years, but his profitability is undeniable. It’s still good news for me to be able to continue to be in the top five by revenue in the Premier League, which adds to the value of the stock.”
Kroenke secretly scolded a bastard, and wanted to talk to this guy about writing ideal stuff, and he directly told you about the commercial value. Is this still a young man? Shouldn't they be angry about the team's current results?
"The fans have a lot of opinions now. The team has sold the captain for several years, which has greatly hurt the fans' emotions."
Before Kroenke finished speaking, Jessie Zhou said directly: "Who cares about those guys? Dude, you are not like you today. The most important thing is to maintain the value of the stocks in our hands. This is the Arsenal of shareholders? Would you Think the club will be for fans who can't afford it?"
As he spoke, he continued: "Kroenke, if you just want to tell me something about the fans, then I don't think I should waste my time. I still have a lot of things to deal with. Naturally, there are management teams. Please pay attention at the top level, the general direction is determined by the board of directors, my proxy in the meeting has already voted, I have no problem!"
bitch.
This is Kroenke's evaluation of Zhou Jiexi's remarks. The words here are so good. Is it you who complain about Arsenal on Tom Cat's Facebook? Did you say something similar to Usmarov and what would happen if you were the chairman?
It’s all right now, you’ve done a good job of scoring the video points on the fans’ side, what are you talking about about the stock value on my side, the fans are useless, you really have face!
Hypocritical!
Zhou Jiexi has no good words for Kroenke, isn't it just double-faced, who wouldn't! His current agent has little voice on the board, just to sit and watch these guys fight among themselves. It is no secret that Arsenal's board of directors are infighting.
Another major shareholder, Usmalov, was excluded from these guys and was not allowed to join the board of directors. What's more, David Dunn was a bit unlucky. Zhou Jiexi was kicked out before he came.
Kroenke has ambitions for Arsenal, and secretly contacted other shareholders in an attempt to obtain 70% of the shares. Because according to British regulations, after owning 70% of the equity, you can control the right to operate, and you can do whatever you say. It's a pity that until now, he still doesn't have this right.
Of course, Zhou Jiexi is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Arsenal has more than 1,400 minority shareholders, and secretly he has many shareholders in his hands. There is also a third party, Usmarov, who is bidding for shares again, but this guy doesn't seem to need Arsenal as much as he said.
According to Abramovich's model, the most useful acquisition of these industries is for industrial transfer. In the current situation, he has already knelt and licked Putin in Russia, so he is quite safe.
Kroenke choked on Jesse Zhou: "Recently, some fans expressed the hope that you can do more in the board of directors. It seems that your actions after acquiring the Warriors have given many people hope. Become a follower Like those rich people who like to spend money, they bring more superstars and more influence to the team."
"Oh? And this thing?" Zhou Jiexi was really surprised, as his agent hadn't reported it yet. I think it should be soon, but I didn't expect Kroenke to be quite sensitive. He called so soon to test whether he was organizing a self-promotional trick.
"I've been busy with the Warriors recently, so I don't know much about the situation there. Old man, if you have time, can you introduce me?" Zhou Jiexi said.
"Oh, when..." Before he could say the last word, Kroenke stopped speaking, and he immediately said: "Sorry, my company has an accident that needs to be dealt with, you wait for my call, we will wait a while Let's talk again!"
"OK, I can do whatever I want!" Zhou Jiexi said politely, and set a date for the next chat, but did not set a time. "Old guy, I still want to play football! I'm still playing football when I'm dozens of years old, so be careful kicking balls. But!"
Zhou Jiexi put down the phone, and after thinking about the matter for a while, he called his agent at Arsenal in the UK and consulted for a few words. After asking what was going on now, he suddenly felt a little happy.
The fans don't know if it's the disgusting board of directors and management who hope to replace those old men and let him, a young man, play. Get Arsenal off to a dynamic start instead of talking about football with a septuagenarian.
That would make people feel ridiculous, they will only talk about the value of the team or the value of the stock. In their view, the team's performance is definitely not as attractive as a stable stock with appreciation potential.
These fans are obviously not happy, and the youngest director of Arsenal is Jesse Zhou. Even these people know about the great things this young rich man has accomplished in the United States recently.
After buying a team, he bought a big name, which suddenly made the Warriors feel a little taller. What does Arsenal need? Just need such a rich chairman who dares to spend money!
