Michelle Praise Stor is a local rich man in Monaco. He and his sister took over the family business. It is the largest real estate company in Monaco. It has a market value of more than 10 billion euros and has an amazing influence in Monaco.

One of the important reasons why their family can have all this is that they have a good relationship with the royal family.

So, ten years ago, when Monaco was in a financial crisis, Albert said high, and Michelle stood up and responded immediately, paying money to set an example. He himself served as the chairman of the board of directors of Monaco.

But later he was indeed not very interested in running a football club, and he was not very interested in it. In addition, he was getting older and the financial black hole of Monaco was getting bigger and bigger, but the team's performance was getting worse and worse, which made him gradually fade away and retreat behind the scenes.

When he heard that someone was willing to take over, Pastor agreed with both hands and feet.

It can be seen that he had long been eager to throw away this hot potato.

Yang Huan didn't care what the rich people present were thinking.

Perhaps Monaco was arsenic in their eyes, but in his eyes, it was like a magic pill.

Think about it from another perspective. Why did Michel, who has such an amazing value, obey Prince Albert's call and rescue Monaco?

This does not indirectly reflect one thing, that is, is the influence of football that money cannot match?

Acquiring a football team is the best way to enter the core of Monaco's upper class?

Of course, the premise is to win the benefits you want.

"Mr. Yang Huan, I am very honored to have your interest in Monaco Football Club"

After talking about the opening, the topic quickly reached the point.

Prince Albert also wished outsiders to invest in the team, but he also had his own considerations.

"Monaco is a team with a long history, and it has been established for nearly a hundred years. It represents not only all of our team supporters, but the crown on the team logo also shows that it also represents the honor of our royal family and the reputation of the principality."

Yang Huan nodded unstoppablely.

He understands this.

It is hard to imagine that people who are not familiar with the upper class in Europe. If you are not familiar with football, you will not be able to communicate with them at all.

You can imagine the scene where the British Prime Minister sits with the French President, discusses the results of the Champions League, and even fights for a foul in the game?

You can imagine that the boss of a large consortium missed a big deal because he didn't want to do business with his arch-rival fans?

But all this happens almost at any time in Europe.

Compared with football countries like Britain, Germany and Spain, France's football atmosphere is relatively weak.

But it's still important

"Everyone in our entire principality feels extremely sad and shameful for Monaco's relegation to the Ligue 2 League. We are eager to return to the Ligue 1 League and return to the European arena."

When he said this, Prince Albert smiled admirably at Yang Huan.

"Mr. Yang Huan, although I am in Monaco, I have heard the stories of you and Southampton. I admire everything you have done in Southampton. You have created a brand new business model in the Saints."

As the saying goes, the name of a person and the shadow of a tree.

Yang Huan is now in European football, so he is so popular. Who doesn’t know him?

"So, we are all very supportive of your idea of ​​buying Monaco Football Club because we believe you have enough ability to lead Monaco out of the current dilemma."

Yang Huan still didn't speak because he knew that the previous ones were nonsense, and the focus was coming later.

Sure enough, when he said this, Prince Albert changed his mind.

"But, please forgive me, Monaco represents the dignity of the royal family, and we cannot accept it anyway. It does not belong to us Monacos, so we cannot accept your full acquisition."

Yang Huan's previous acquisition plan proposed by Zhao Yuanfang and Pini ofLi Harvey was a 100% acquisition.

This is also his usual style of doing things

But now it seems that both parties attach great importance to this share.

Yang Huan listened politely to Prince Albert and smiled faintly after he finished speaking.

"Thank you for your appreciation from Prince Albert. Please believe that I did not come with a speculative mentality. I bought Monaco because I value this team, including the Principality of Monaco behind this team."

Prince Albert and everyone present also nodded together.

This is very sincere. If it weren't for the Principality of Monaco behind it, who would have taken over the mess?

"I have analyzed what Monaco has experienced over the past decade. The team cannot get back to the Premier League this summer. It is certainly a point that coach Barnes is limited, but it is very important that the team has not adjusted their mentality well."

"It was originally a big team, but in the Ligue 1, it had a lot of income, but suddenly it dropped into the Ligue 2. Not only did the income drop sharply, the mentality of the players and the club changed, which caused the team to play with heavy pressure."

Yang Huan's statement made everyone present feel new.

Regarding Monaco's inability to rush back to Ligue 1, some people think that the strength is not good, while others think that the club does not invest much.

These are certainly part of the factors, but the psychological factors mentioned by Yang Huan are also very important.

Prince Albert deeply understood this.

Last summer, Monaco was relegated and 23 first-team players left. How many did they introduce?

Twelve people

Among the twenty-three players who left the team, there were many core players and potential rookies like Nkuru.

This caused a tragic blow to Monaco.

In the past, in Ligue 1, I earned at least 20 to 30 million euros from broadcasting rights in a season.

But where is the French Second Division?

Not much to be divided

This forces the team to reduce their diet and reduce their bonuses, and the players feel depressed and wronged.

But what about management?

The urgent desire to rush back to Ligue 1 is that the team's actual situation is deviated from the formulation of many policies.

In the end, Monaco failed to advance to the Arctic

"I'm very sure that this is definitely not a manifestation of Monaco's strength, nor should it appear in Monaco. This team should appear in Ligue 1, or even in European arenas. I'm very sure of this."

Yang Huan's words were undoubtedly deeply recognized by Prince Albert.

Who said no?

Eight years ago, Monaco was the team in the Champions League final and finally won the second place in the Champions League.

"If my team and I are allowed to operate in full, I will be confident that I will rush back to Ligue 1 next season, return to the European arena within three years, and become the most powerful contender for the Ligue 1 championship again."

Yang Huan's words undoubtedly made Prince Albert's eyes lit up.

Too tempting

Looking at the current Principality of Monaco, who dares to make such a promise?

But soon Prince Albert realized a problem.

What Yang Huan said is that it is fully operational

That is to say, he wants 100% ownership of the club

This made Prince Albert fall into trouble.

Although the Monaco royal family is no longer the team's largest shareholder, Prince Albert still has the veto power.

This is determined by his status

But in Yang Huan's opinion, this is unacceptable.

Who is willing to spend a lot of money on a team but is constrained everywhere in the end? Wouldn’t that cause trouble?

When Yang Huan spoke, he always looked at Prince Albert, and saw the other party's reaction and knew it.

"Your Highness, I believe you should also be very clear about the crux of the team's current situation."

These words undoubtedly awaken Prince Albert.

The Prince of Monaco is not a fool, how could he not know?

In 2001, the Monaco Club was converted into a joint-stock company and was jointly managed by seven board members, two of whom were from the royal family, and these two had veto power.

Since then, Monaco has almost fallen into management chaos.

Without the approval of the royal family, no measures of the club can be implemented, including finding sponsors.

The years when Monaco's financial crisis was the worst, and the years when the royal family and management were at the worst.

It was not until 2004 that Michelle photographed Stoll as chairman of the board of directors that the situation improved.

But even so, the conflict between the royal family and the Monaco board of directors still exists.

Otherwise, how can I explain that such a French Ligue 1 giant with a strong background and enjoying extremely low tax rates eventually declined and even dropped into French Ligue 2?

In 2009, Etienne Franci, the current chairman of the Monaco board of directors, took over as the club chairman.

Franci is ambitious to revive Monaco after former president Jerome De Podin, a financier from the United States, cut wages, sold players with nearly magical operational capabilities, and brought a profit of 16 million euros to the club.

As a result, in the summer of 2009, Icelandic veteran Goodjohansen spent 2 million euros and a high salary, but half a year later, because the Icelanders failed to score a goal in nine games and their performance was sluggish, they sent the Icelanders to Tottenham Hotspur during the winter break.

The same happened in 2010, when France brought in the African center Mbokani, who scored fifteen goals in two consecutive seasons with 7 million euros from Belgium Standard Liege.
