Chapter 298 The nickname of chicken thief is not for nothing

In the remaining game time, despite Benitez's continuous deployment of troops, Liverpool still failed to restore the situation of the game.

On the Crystal Palace side, after seventy minutes, Chen Ran began to substitute substitute players one after another.

In the end, Crystal Palace reversed Liverpool 3:1 at Anfield.

While scoring three points, Chen Ran also got a "Free Kick Master Card" from the system.

In other Premier League games this round, Manchester United defeated Sunderland 1:0 at Old Trafford, Chelsea also defeated Aston Villa 2:0 away from home, and Arsenal defeated Sunderland 3:1 at home.

Portsmouth.

After the fifth round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace ranked first in the standings with 15 points from five wins, Chelsea ranked second with 13 points from four wins and a draw, and Manchester United ranked third with 12 points from four wins and one loss.

Liverpool and Arsenal are closely behind with ten points. Several strong teams are competing against each other, but the gap has not widened.

The following week is the national team match day. As Crystal Palace's results are getting better and better, now not only the main players, but also the substitutes have been selected for their respective national teams.

So now on the national team match day, in the Crystal Palace training base, apart from the coaches and staff, there are only a few players left, and training cannot even be carried out.

Unfortunately, everyone else could rest, but Chen Ran was not so lucky. He was blocked in the office by Stephen again.

"Chen, there is a reply from the Red Bull Group. They have withdrawn their proposal to sponsor the teams under the Galaxy Football Group, and said that the plan to exchange shares of the Galaxy Football Group with Red Bull Salzburg and New York Red Bull will not be affected in any way."

"Oh? It seems that their decision-makers are still clear-headed and can continue to cooperate."

Chen Ran was also very satisfied to see that his request was realized once again.

Frankly speaking, Chen Ran knew very well that although his Crystal Palace was already a prominent presence in the football circle, compared to the size of Red Bull Group, both Crystal Palace and Galaxy Football Group could only be regarded as younger brothers.

This is also an important reason why Chen Ran has been very strong in the negotiation process. If he cannot take the initiative in his own hands from the beginning, then with the financial resources of the Red Bull Group, it will be impossible for the Galaxy Football Group to belong to Chen Ran in the future.

That’s easy to say.

Now it seems that the Red Bull Group finally accepted all the requests I made.

Either they are really willing to cooperate with them, or the other party wants more, something bigger...

Shopping malls are like battlefields. When cooperating with these giants, Chen Ran has to think more carefully, otherwise he may be eaten up to the point where no bones and dregs are left.

"Chen, the Red Bull Group proposed that both parties choose a suitable time to jointly hold a press conference on this cooperation plan. At that time, the boss of their group, Dietrich Matschitz, will attend in person, as well.

Hope you can attend together."

"Press conference? There is no problem with that. My boss, who is the richest man in Austria, has come forward in person. Of course I, a junior, will also attend."

"By the way, the team has no games this weekend, and I happen to have nothing to do. Ask the Red Bull Group if their boss's time is convenient. If there is no problem, then hold a press conference at the Crystal Palace Club this weekend.

Yes."

"Um, holding a press conference at the Crystal Palace Club?"

Stephen was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Otherwise? Since it is a cooperation in football, of course it is most appropriate to hold a press conference at a football club. Do we have to go to the Red Bull headquarters in Austria to hold a press conference?"

"I understand, I will contact the Red Bull Group shortly."

"One more thing, please ask David Gill to put aside what he is doing. After all, he is the CEO of Galaxy Football Group. He cannot miss such an important press conference."

"Okay, I understand."

...

In the next few days, a piece of breaking news spread among major media outlets around the world.

Not only sports media, but also many financial media are paying attention to this news.

If the name Chen Ran was only famous in the football circle before, now many practitioners in the financial industry also know about this young Chinese man who works alone in England.

"I heard that Red Bull Group is going to take a stake in that Chinese-owned Galaxy Football Group. Is this true?"

"It's true. The invitations to the press conference have been sent to our newspaper office."

"Good guy, that Chinese guy is getting bigger and bigger as he plays. Red Bull Group is a rich man."

"Who says it's not? Now those who are looking down on the Galaxy Football Group will probably be disappointed. With the support of the Red Bull Group, a big financial backer, and the Crystal Palace Club, which is now in full swing, as an aircraft carrier, a large aircraft carrier formation is about to be

It’s about to take shape.”

"I didn't expect that Chinese guy to be so creative. I heard he was only in his early thirties. It's really amazing."

"Haha, don't rush to conclusions yet. Compared with Red Bull Group, neither Crystal Palace Club nor Galaxy Football Group are companies of the same magnitude. After Red Bull Group moves in, Galaxy Football Group is still not Chinese.

That’s easy to say.”

"Huh? This is really possible. Otherwise, why would Red Bull Group be willing to invest in a new thing called Galaxy Football Group? By the way, do you know how many shares Red Bull Group holds in investing in Galaxy Football Group?"

"I really don't know about this. It wasn't mentioned in the invitation letter."

"Haha, this is going to be interesting. If Red Bull Group becomes the majority shareholder of Galaxy Football Group, wouldn't that Chinese person be busy in vain?"

"You can't say that. At least he can get a lot of money."

"Hey, let me analyze it this way. This press conference is very important. No, I have to get an invitation letter and go in to see the excitement."

"Go together, go together."

...

On a weekend without games, the Crystal Palace club suddenly became much more lively than usual.

Well-known media from all over the world, one after another, all appeared here, and many TV stations even broadcast the press conference live.

As the time approached, Chen Ran also walked into the press conference venue with Dietrich Matschitz, the boss of Red Bull Group.

Dietrich Matschitz is in his sixties. His hair and eyebrows are all white, but he is very strong and energetic. He is wearing a light gray short-sleeved Polo shirt and blue jeans, and he walks quickly.

The press conference was hosted by David Gill, CEO of Galaxy Football Group. In addition to announcing that Red Bull Group would exchange 20% of the shares of Galaxy Football Group with Red Bull Salzburg and New York Red Bull, it caused a burst of laughter from the reporters present. Apart from the exclamation, the other processes went smoothly.

However, as Chen Ran expected, when the press conference entered the question and answer session, the entire venue immediately became excited.

Almost all the reporters raised their hands. Looking down from Chen Ran's point of view, it was like a forest suddenly grew in front of them.

The first few reporters who asked questions all directed their questions to Red Bull boss Dietrich Matschitz.

For example, why did Red Bull Group invest in Galaxy Football Group, why did it exchange two clubs for Galaxy Football Group's shares, and whether 20% of the shares was too small.

For a veteran fox like Dietrich Matschitz, there was no difficulty at all and he dismissed these reporters in a few seconds.

The other reporters who weighed their abilities and felt that they couldn't deal with the old fox then turned their guns on Chen Ran, the little fox in their minds.

"Mr. Chen, do you think Red Bull Group made a profit or a loss by exchanging two clubs for 20% of the Galaxy Football Group shares?"

Good guy, these reporters are really rude, throwing such insidious questions to Chen Ran.

Chen Ran carefully looked at the reporter who asked the question, and found that she was actually a beautiful woman with blonde hair and blue eyes. Moreover, while she was digging holes for Chen Ran, she was also ogling Chen Ran. It was really deceiving.

"Ahem, the ratio of share exchange is determined after joint evaluation by professional institutions hired by both parties, so there is no argument that who loses and who takes advantage."

"But I believe that as the Galaxy Football Group continues to grow and develop, the 20% stake obtained by the Red Bull Group will become more and more valuable."

"Mr. Chen, if you count the two clubs Red Bull Salzburg and New York Red Bull that joined this time, Galaxy Football Group already has six football clubs across Europe, Asia, South America and North America. What do you want? What to do? Dominate the world of football?"

If the previous question was a hidden weapon, then this question is an open one.

This question must be on the minds of many people.

If the answer is good, then the future development of Galaxy Football Group will be much smoother; if the answer is not good, then Galaxy Football Group is likely to suffer disaster.

You can't hide for a while, you will have to face it sooner or later. Chen Ran has been mentally prepared for this.

"Is it difficult to dominate world football? Last season, Crystal Palace won the Club World Cup, the Champions League, the European Super Cup and the Premier League. It can be said that an English team can win The most important championships I have ever won have been won.”

"Mr. Journalist, do you think that reaching this level of Crystal Palace counts as dominating world football?"

Chen Ran stared at the reporter who asked the question and threw the question back.

"Uh... I guess I guess."

After hesitating for a long time, in full view of the public, the reporter finally felt embarrassed to speak against his conscience.

"Thank you, Mr. Journalist, for your recognition of Crystal Palace Club over the past season."

Chen Ran first smiled and thanked the reporter who asked the question, then turned to look at the others.

"Since I have achieved the so-called domination of world football through Crystal Palace Club, it is obvious that this is not the purpose of my efforts to establish the Galaxy Football Group."

"I know there are many people who are skeptical about the new thing called Galaxy Football Group. Today, I am taking this opportunity to introduce my thoughts to you."

"Everyone knows that I come from a country where football development is backward. After I have achieved some results in running the Crystal Palace club in the past few years, I thought that I should do something for the development of football in China."

"At the beginning, I just wanted to build a Crystal Palace youth training base in China to help the development of youth football in China. But later I felt that I couldn't be so selfish. I should do my best to make more talented people around the world Talented kids play football.”

"So, I came up with the idea of ​​establishing the Galaxy Football Group. Now, I am setting up a youth training base with these clubs as the core. Starting next year, I will hold the 'Galaxy' Cup Youth Football Friendly Match. Youth teams from all over the world are welcome to sign up."

...

As usual, a good press conference turned into a performance stage for Chen Ran alone.

Under Chen Ran's careful decoration, Galaxy Football Group has become a public welfare organization established for the development of football for all mankind.

Whether you believe it or not, Chen Ran believes it himself.

...

In the Internet age, information spreads at an alarmingly fast speed.

The press conference between Crystal Palace Club and Red Bull Group had just ended, and the latest news was received thousands of miles away in China.

This time, the entire Crystal Palace forum was detonated again.

"Good guy, I'll be honest. That guy Chen Ran is really on his lap."

"What do you mean by having a high thigh? It's obviously a golden thigh. For example, Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, Red Bull, and even Wahaha and Nongfu Spring in China. Each of these beverage sellers is richer than the other."

"The key is that Red Bull Group only exchanged two clubs for 20% of the shares of Galaxy Football Group. In other words, Galaxy Football Group still has the final say, that guy Chen Ran."

"Of course, the nickname Ji Thieran is not for nothing. Did you see that even if you cooperate with such a predator, you won't suffer at all."

"Furthermore, Chen Ran also said that the purpose of establishing the Galaxy Football Group is to allow more talented children to play football. This pattern is really not small."

"I'll go, upstairs, you don't really believe that guy Chen Ran's nonsense, do you? You want to say that he wants talented children from China to play football? I believe that. The whole world? That's pure nonsense."

"Even if you don't look at the layout of the clubs under the Galaxy Football Group, besides China, England, the Netherlands, Brazil, Austria and the United States, are there any countries that are lagging behind in football?"

"That's right, if you don't count Austria and the United States, England, the Netherlands and Brazil brought by the Red Bull Group this time, they are all football powers. That guy Chen Ran obviously wants to use the resources of these three football powers to cultivate our country. of youth players.”

"Haha, the brother upstairs is still too young."
