   Chapter 741 Delivered to your door

   The money to invest in the Gazprom Group has not yet been prepared, and it is another matter of spending money.

   One day at the end of March, Abu suddenly called.

   “Misha, are you busy lately?”

Wang Ye smiled bitterly and said: “I’m so busy, sometimes I think about it, I still envy you. Hiding in Chukchi, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, every day is not hunting and skiing, or drinking coffee and smoking cigars, that’s comfortable. Well. What do you think I want, just a deputy speaker of the Duma, who is busier than the one in the K Palace all day long.”

   These words are just complaining in front of Abu. They are not hypocritical, because Abu understands the feelings of Wangye.

   Sure enough, hearing Wang Ye say this, Abu laughed and said:

   “You’re still young, it’s definitely right to do more work while you’re young.

  Wait a few years, if you are really tired, like me, apply to go to a remote area and become a governor, Siberia is very good.

   That’s right, I’m not in Chukchi now, guess where I am? ”

   Wang Ye’s heart moved, where is Abu?

   I remember the last time the two met, Abu talked about going abroad to settle in the future, and also…

   He blurted out: “In the City of London!”

  Abu laughed heartily: “Haha, you guessed it right.

   The acquisition of the team that I mentioned last time has come to the fore. I am now in London to talk about it.

  I am going to buy Chelsea and the price has been negotiated.

  I also touched the Arsenal on your side, except that the asking price is a bit high, nothing else.

   But with your strength, the price should not be a problem. ”

  Acquiring a Premier League team, in 2003, really didn’t cost a lot of money.

  For example, when Abramovich won Chelsea, it was less than 100 million pounds. In addition to helping Chelsea repay the debt and additional funds to buy players, the expenditure in the first two years did not exceed 300 million pounds.

   Of course, this is for super oligarchs like Wang Ye and Abu!

   These money, in 2003, were already very shocking.

  After Abramovich bought Chelsea, the world waving cheques to snap up players, it is no exaggeration to say that it directly changed the pattern of global football.

  That is, from then on, the so-called golden-dollar football era began.

  The giants are getting stronger and stronger, and they no longer train their own players. Instead, they use their strong financial resources to directly “plunder” the leading players of small and medium-sized teams.

   This phenomenon has intensified as the oil capital of China and D has entered football.

   Like Super Manchester City, Paris, etc…

   Oh, and Newcastle United, whose boss is Salman!

  …

   “Arsenal agrees to sell? How much will it cost if purchased with full capital?” Wang Ye asked with excitement.

   Although he is a half-hearted fan, he has never been a die-hard fan of a certain team. Generally, he likes whichever team has good results and has many big-name stars.

   But you are definitely familiar with the famous Arsenal, especially the Arsenal in the 0304 season. In that season, the Gunners were unbeaten in the league for more than a year, and the league was unbeaten for 49 consecutive games!

   created the myth of the unbeaten Premier League and set off a red storm all over the world!

  The superstar Henry has become a strong contender for the World Footballer by virtue of his outstanding performance in Arsenal this year, and finally lost to his teammate Zidane of the national team…

   Of course, Arsenal is still in the 20203 season, and the results are not so good.

   Otherwise, it is not so easy to acquire this team.

  At this time, Arsenal, because of the construction of the new stadium, the team fell into a financial crisis, and the performance of the game began to decline.

  The league has been overtaken by Manchester United, and it seems that this season is going to be empty.

   Abu replied with a smile:

   “It’s hard to say how much, because Arsenal’s shareholders are too scattered and need to be discussed one by one.

   But at present, I have found Arsenal’s largest shareholder, David Dane. He owns more than 30% of the shares, and he is willing to sell the shares.

   In addition, he is also willing to help, to lobby more minority shareholders to sell their shares.

   When the time comes, they can pack and acquire the shares in their hands. With Arsenal’s current situation, the price will not be too high.

   The acquisition team I hired estimated that the acquisition of the entire Arsenal might be between £120 million and £150 million. ”

   Up to £150m…

   At the beginning of the year, the British pound was quite valuable, and the exchange rate for converting to RMB was about 15. If the highest price was 1.5 billion pounds, it would be 2.2 billion RMB, less than 300 million US dollars!

   It is a relatively cost-effective business to use 300 million US dollars to acquire a famous football giant in the world, and Wang Ye is quite moved.

   “Okay! Then buy it. Do you need me to send someone over here, or do you want me to fly by myself?” Wang Ye said decisively.

   “It’s better, I invite David Dane to Moscow, and you guys can talk in person.

   The reason why David Dane is willing to sell his shares is not so simple, you will know when you meet.

   If you bought Arsenal just to make money, he probably won’t sell you a stake.

   Of course, I know you must not look down on the money the club makes, so you dare to put down big words in front of David Dane, and he is willing to sell your shares to you, haha…” Abu said.

   Hearing Abu say this, Wang Ye was a little surprised.

   Isn’t selling shares for money?

   So what exactly is this David Dane drawing?

   Under Wang Ye’s questioning, Abu made another explanation.

  It turns out that this David Dane, the current deputy owner of Arsenal Football Club X, is also the club’s largest individual shareholder.

  The reason why he wants to sell his shares is because Arsenal’s financial situation is in trouble, the new stadium is about to be capped, but the club is out of money…

   Originally, the stadium was built with a loan from a bank, and it is impossible to get a loan now.

  The club is burdened with more than 60 million pounds of loans, and the revenue is only barely able to pay the salaries of the players. After all, Arsenal is also a giant. There are many stars in the team, and the salary is not low.

   David Dane was desperate, he wanted to find a rich major shareholder for the club, preferably the one who was willing to spend his own money into the club.

   Just like the boss of Inter Milan…

   Coincidentally, Abramovich was buying Chelsea during this period, and the news reached David Dane.

   After all, he is from the London football circle, and the news is very well-informed. He learned that there is an energy oligarch from Eastern Europe who is extremely rich and wants to enter the Premier League!

  David Dane had an idea, can this oligarch also take a stake in Arsenal? Compared with Chelsea, Arsenal is obviously more famous.

   So he took the initiative to find Abu’s acquisition team.

   However, Abramovich had already decided at that time that he was going to acquire Chelsea, and he did not refuse the Arsenal who came to the door, because Wang Ye also intends to buy a club to play with…
