Chapter 3375: Too Shameless
Lin Feng had just arrived at Nice Airport and had not yet arrived in Cannes when Tottenham announced the news of signing Messi and Fabregas. www.dyzw8.com[No+popup+window+novel+net]..This is undoubtedly like a heavy slap in the face for those teams that covet Messi and Fabregas. Especially the salary of this contract is too low.
Messi's 7 million US dollars, Fabregas's 6 million US dollars, although this contract is already very high, it is only slightly less than the top superstars today, but compared with the age of Messi and Fabregas, this is already very high, very high. At least all superstars at this age, but can't sign such a lucrative contract. But this still makes many Arab crown princes and Russian tycoons dissatisfied. ..
They offered an annual salary of tens of millions of dollars after tax, especially Senator Mansour, who offered an annual salary of 15 million US dollars. God, this is 15 million US dollars, and this is only 7 million US dollars, not even half of it. Why did Messi sign it! This made Mansour very unhappy. Especially since he was the brother-in-law of Chief Hamdan, he had been listening to Hamdan nagging about Lin Feng's power all day long in the past few months, which made him very unhappy.
But now, Messi and Fabregas actually agreed to such a "low" annual salary, which was too bullying. Is there such a bullying? There are many smart people in this world, especially the billionaires who are smarter. If they are not smart, they can't make so much money. I immediately thought of the news that UEFA had leaked that it would achieve a balance of payments next season, which might be related to Lin Feng.
Otherwise, how could it be that this side just leaked that it would achieve a balance of payments, otherwise it would cancel the qualification for European competitions, and the other side immediately renewed the contract. If there is no trick in the middle, who would believe it! No matter how coincidental it is, it would not be such a coincidence. Many crown princes and Russian tycoons immediately used their connections to investigate all this at UEFA. As a result, this investigation was incredible, and the results obtained simply surprised these Arab and Russian tycoons. ..
This balance plan was actually proposed by Lin Feng and implemented by Platini. And Platini is very likely to become the president of UEFA next year. In other words, it is very likely that next year. This finger balance bill will definitely be implemented.
Damn it. This guy is too despicable! Many bosses cursed. Isn't it true that in order to dispel their poaching, you offer such a bad idea. You, Lin Feng, are too disregarding everyone's unity and cooperation. How can this be justified. And then everyone will suffer. Once the balance strategy is really implemented, these big teams will not be able to spend a lot of money to buy players and hit people. This is not only related to their family. It is also related to Lin Feng's Tottenham. Lin Feng's Tottenham is not profitable now. Aren't you afraid that your Tottenham will also be in trouble!
In trouble? Lin Feng smiled, since he dared to make this suggestion,
there is a solution.
Soon, Tottenham announced another exciting news. The Chinese company, 'Second Real Estate Co., Ltd.', will sign a 10-year contract with Tottenham to name the new stadium. Within 10 years, the newly built White Hart Lane Stadium will be renamed 'Second Real Estate White Hart Lane Stadium', and within the next 10 years, Tottenham will receive $1.5 billion in compensation. In other words, just the naming rights of the stadium. Tottenham can earn $150 million a year.
And that's not all. There are also chest advertisements, which are also bought by 'Phantom Technology'. The contract is also for 10 years, and the annual amount is as high as $150 million. In other words, with only the chest advertisements and stadium naming rights, Tottenham will have an annual income of $300 million. If you add ticket sales, TV broadcast dividends, jersey sales, etc., Tottenham's annual income will be p; This income is enough to stand out from the crowd. And it is completely enough to meet Tottenham's operations, and it can take out at least $100 million every year to acquire players.
"This is shameless! This is a typical case of stealing from the inside!" Mansour was the first to protest Lin Feng's behavior of covering his ears and stealing the bell. It's shameless for your own company to give money to your own team. This is completely taking advantage of the loopholes in the rumored balance of payments bill.
"This is taking advantage of loopholes. If this is the case, then the balance of payments bill is equivalent to nothing!" Crown Prince Tamim Al Thani, who had just acquired Paris Saint-Germain, roared loudly. Although the two are friends, Lin Feng's behavior is too deceptive. He came up with a balance of payments bill, but he took advantage of the loopholes in advance and made a so-called contract. This is really bullying.
"I hope UEFA can thoroughly investigate this matter to prevent good bills from being left unfinished." Suleiman also snorted. He was also angry with Lin Feng. This guy was too insidious and cunning. He quietly posed a difficult problem to everyone. Isn't this a deception?
"I hope UEFA can give everyone justice!" Abramovich also added fuel to the fire. He had no choice but to count on UEFA for Lin Feng's behavior.
UEFA? Lin Feng smiled. He was too lazy to communicate with Platini about this matter because he believed that Platini would handle it. He did take advantage of a loophole, but he could also ensure the normal operation of the team. Lin Feng believed that Platini would understand his intentions.
Sure enough.
Platini, as the most popular candidate for the next UEFA president, held a press conference in Paris to explain the matter.
"It was indeed Mr. Lin who proposed the fiscal balance bill, and I agree with it very much. It is conducive to the development of football. If I become the president of UEFA, I will definitely promote the balance bill to ensure the overall development of the football industry. As for Mr. Lin's investment behavior, I don't think it conflicts with the balance bill. Although these companies are all Lin Feng's companies, they have signed a valid contract for ten years. In other words, Tottenham's financial operations will be extremely good in the next ten years. These two contracts are enough to ensure the normal operation of Tottenham in the next ten years. I don't think there is anything wrong with this. Of course, if those Arab oil tycoons and Russian tycoons are dissatisfied, they can also sign the same contract to inject capital into the team, and I won't object to that. In this way, the team can obtain long-term financial guarantees and keep the team running well." Platini's remarks completely turned to Lin Feng.
Faced with Platini's remarks, these UAE oil tycoons and Russian tycoons were silent. UEFA has said that you can do this as long as you sign the contract, it is legal and valid. But these people are unwilling to sign such a long contract. But if you sign a short-term contract, like Lin Feng, and sell the stadium naming rights and chest advertising to your own company, it's a bit of a loss. After all, these two items are enough to sell at a high price to fill the team's financial gap. If you buy it at a high price, it will be a big hole. How to calculate this, how not cost-effective.
In the end, several teams chose to remain silent, thinking about what other ways to deal with this balance of income and expenditure. Of course, for now, they don't need to care too much. After all, Platini will not take office until next year, and he will not stay here this year. So, there is no need to worry too much. This year, it is more important to buy players to improve the team's strength, so that we can compete with Lin Feng next season.
Lin Feng's Tottenham has already won the triple crown, the double crown last year, and the Champions League has won the championship again. If they want to continue to win the championship next year, everyone will have no way to survive. Therefore, this summer, we must expand our army crazily and strengthen our strength. But now, the teams have not taken action. This year is the World Cup year. If there are any good players, we will wait until after the German World Cup. If you buy now, you may miss a good player. Anyway, they have money in hand and are not in a hurry. They can wait and observe for a while.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that they chose to wait and see like most teams in Europe. But Lin Feng made a move early.
For $30 million, he acquired Christoph Metzelder, a 190 cm tall central defender from Dortmund in Germany. This 26-year-old German defensive general. In addition, Lin Feng also acquired Mertesacker, a 22-year-old central defender with a height of 198 cm from Hannover 96 in the Bundesliga. This deal cost Lin Feng $18 million!
After signing quickly, Tottenham General Manager Kenyon announced that he would not sign any more players this year.
Such a quick signing of two defenders stunned everyone. This move was too fast. However, experienced coaches such as Ferguson and Wenger felt depressed. These two tall and strong young German defenders just filled the biggest shortcoming of Tottenham, the height of the defender.
This time, Tottenham is almost perfect! Of course, in public, Metzelder has become a defensive backbone, but Mertesacker is still a newcomer. Although he performed well in Hannover 96 in Germany, that was only in a small team. It would not be the case if he was in a big team. They may not be able to bear the pressure of playing in a big team, and they may eventually become "Zhongyong". After all, there are no fewer such players.
In the face of the disturbances from the outside world, Lin Feng put it aside and did not take care of it. Instead, he went to Cannes to participate in the Cannes Film Festival with Li Zhiyou and others. Compared with the Oscars and Lin Feng's own film festival, the Cannes Film Festival lasts for 12 days. During these 12 days, various participating films will be played. What surprised Lin Feng was that this year's Cannes Film Festival judge was an acquaintance, Wong Kar-wai.
This time, Wong Kar-wai will serve as the chairman of the jury of the Cannes Film Festival and be responsible for scoring various films. This is really beyond Lin Feng's expectations. As for the film Lin Feng participated in, it was "Myth". Huang Meixi and Jackie Chan starred in the film, while Lee Ji-woo and Lin Zhihui played the main supporting roles.
So will Lin Feng's "Myth" win an award? (To be continued.)
