Head-to-head Hollywood Chapter 811 Liverpool's best hope for revival As the CEO of Liverpool FC, Rick Parry has dealt with a lot of rich people, and even more big companies around the world. However, Dunn Walker in front of him still shocked him slightly. Compared with the US$280 million previously offered by Dunn Capital, he raised the price by US$70 million! Don't even think about it? Agree without blinking your eyes? Is this the courage of the richest man in the world? For Dunn's unexpected move, Rick Parry had seen the big world, and he was also secretly shocked. Dunn smiled and said: "What? The price of 350 million US dollars, still not satisfied?" "Ah? Satisfied, very satisfied." Rick Parry then reacted, and quickly stood up, stretched out his hands, and shook hands with Dunn , there was an undisguised surprise in his eyes. This young man... is incredible! Dunn shook hands with him and joked: "I thought you were going to continue raising the offer." Rick Parry said embarrassedly: "I just... I didn't expect you to agree so quickly." Dunn said sternly. : "It's almost June, and the transfer window is about to start. The club's acquisition must be completed as soon as possible, so as not to affect the normal construction of the team next season. Although there are several more rounds of negotiation and more bargaining, I might be spending tens of millions of dollars less, but it doesn't matter what the team is doing." Rick Parry almost burst into tears. What a good boss! So sensible! Thinking of the ridiculous thing that Arsenal pulled out some time ago, it is really contemptuous. Arsenal can't seize the opportunity, Liverpool must firmly grasp it! In just a few words, Rick Parry can clearly feel Dunn's support for the team and his lavishness in capital investment. Liverpool has no shortage of heritage, no lack of strength, no lack of qualifications to attract big-name players, and all that is lacking... is money! With Dunn, all problems will be solved! A revival of Liverpool's glory days that swept Europe in the 1980s seems to be just around the corner. "Are you sure you can convince the board of directors for the $350 million offer?" Dunn stared at him deeply. Rick Parry said firmly: "There is definitely no problem. The $350 million has exceeded 200 million pounds. To be honest, the minimum guarantee requirement of the board of directors is 200 million pounds." Dunn couldn't help but steal in his heart. laugh. Copy the bottoms! In the past so many years, Dunn has bought a lot of companies, such as Apple, Google, Amazon, as well as many Hollywood movies and TV series, Dolby Laboratories, Pixar, imax... The reason why he can become a world leader in a few years The richest man is using his foresight to keep buying bottoms! This time, his hand reaches into the world football! First-hand, is to buy dips Liverpool! Is $350 million a high price? In the previous life, in 2007, two American businessmen, George Gillette and Tom Hicks, borrowed to buy Liverpool, and the price was as high as 470 million pounds! Over $700 million! The main reason is that in the past three years, under the leadership of Benitez, Liverpool has completed a recovery, reinvigorated the sponsors, reached the Champions League final twice, won the cup once, and doubled the club's revenue. The Champions League in 2004-05 alone made the team a profit of 70 million euros! To complete the acquisition before Benitez joins Liverpool is the biggest bargain hunter! Tang En was secretly delighted in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he invited him to take a seat again, and said without hesitation, "How long does it take for the club to change hands?" Rick Parry said: "The procedures are more complicated. However, I was the CEO of the Premier League before, and I have always maintained a good relationship. If I push it all out, it should be completed within 3 months." Dunn said displeased: "3 months? That's not all at the end of August. The new season has started!" Rick Parry said embarrassedly: "It will not be until early August at the earliest. If... the tax issue can be as comprehensive as Chelsea's Abramovich, maybe it can be Hurry up." Dunn understood as soon as he heard it. For the acquisition of US$350 million, Liverpool has to pay a lot of taxes for this, which requires long-term research by the tax department to maximize tax avoidance and consider the interests of shareholders. But Abu is different and bears all the seller tax! Don't waste time researching various tax avoidance schemes, it is important to complete the handover quickly! So as not to delay the team's transfer period! However, this will also cost you an extra fee. "How much does it cost?" Tang En didn't bother to care, and asked directly. Abu, the richest man in the world, can do anything that the Russian local tyrant can do, of course! For the team, everything can be compromised! Rick Parry was almost dizzy by the rounds of surprises, and said inconceivably: "Mr. Walker, you... are you really willing to bear this tax?" Dunn waved his hand and said lightly. : "Compared with my high hopes for Liverpool, petty profits are not worth mentioning." Rick Parry felt Dunn's courage again, took a deep breath, and said: "If this is the case, you need additional Pay 40 million to 50 million US dollars." "No problem. In this case, how long can I control the club?" "Mid-July!" "Okay!" Dunn snorted excitedly. Mid-July is the time when the transfer market is at its busiest. It's not too late to enter at this time! The Premier League will go to war in mid-August. It is necessary to determine the team lineup as soon as possible, buy players, and prepare for the pre-season. "By the way, I haven't looked at Liverpool's financial table. How much will the team's transfer budget for a season be?" Dunn thought. Rick Parry frowned and said: "Last season the team didn't have a Champions League game, so the budget was limited, only 20 million pounds, but in the end it lost 3 million pounds, which is equivalent to the available budget of 17 million pounds. Next season, We will participate in the Champions League, and the initial estimate is that the transfer budget will not be less than 25 million pounds." "25 million pounds..." Dunn sighed and shook his head. The UK's No. 1 giant can only squeeze out a transfer fee of £25 million in one season... It's really shabby. "By the way, when I was in the UK, I saw in the newspaper that the team was going to change the head coach next season?" "Well, we are negotiating, we are interested in Rafa Beni, the head coach of La Liga Valencia. Tes entered Anfield. Last season, he led Valencia to the La Liga title and the UEFA Cup. Looking at the entire European football, such achievements are second only to Mourinho and Wenger. "Benitez... um, yes. I won't move a single point of the transfer budget of 25 million pounds. I will leave it all to the next head coach to expand his lineup." Rick Parry nodded again and again. . There have been so many surprises before that such a slightly reasonable benefit seems appropriate to him. Dunn is obviously not what the media reported on the legend, he wants to destroy the team. On the contrary, he is perfect! Look what the British media said when Roman Abramovich bought Chelsea last year? He scolded the dog's blood spray head! As a result, Chelsea have finished second in the Premier League this past season behind unbeaten Arsenal. Moreover, the Champions League champion coach Mourinho has also publicly stated in the media that he wants to join Chelsea! The Blue Army has a savior, and the Red Army... also has a leader! In Rick Parry's view, Dunn is the greatest hope for Liverpool's revival! "However, the budget of 25 million pounds is too small." Dunn shook his head. "This money, for teams like Manchester United and Real Madrid, is only enough to buy a top star. You may not know me, but you must have seen it. My movie." "Yes." Rick Parry couldn't hide the ecstasy in his heart, he had already heard it, Dunn... This is an intentional investment to buy more excellent players in the transfer market! Tang En said proudly: "The films I make, commercial films, must be the most profitable! Art films must be Oscar-level! In the same way, my team... must become the world's number one in business. In terms of performance, you must also show faith in the championship!" Rick Parry agreed with it: "Yes, the prerequisites for all these are the team's achievements! And the fame of the stars in the team! Now This Liverpool team is too ordinary, and we must increase transfer investment to expand the lineup!" In 2004, there was no Financial Fair Play Act. As long as the boss is willing to spend money, no matter how much money is injected into the team, no one will stop it! On the contrary, everyone has to praise, the team has a good boss. This is very different from what it will be ten years later. Tang En gave him a deep look, shook his head and smiled, then said indifferently: "You are right, you need to increase investment in transfers, but this is not enough!" "Not enough?" Rick Parry's heart skipped a beat. , From Tang En's firm and sharp eyes, he seemed to see some self-evident arrogance and ambition. Dunn said: "New Universal is negotiating a real estate project with the city government of Liverpool. You should have heard of it. It is a Harry Potter theme park. This requires a large piece of land. However, there is an additional condition in this project. I'm asking the city government to sell me a piece of land near Stanley Park." Near Stanley Park...isn't that the address of the New Anfield Stadium? As early as February last year, Liverpool submitted a plan to build a new stadium with a capacity of 70,000 people there to accommodate the increasing number of fans. The stadium quickly received planning permission from the city government and was ready to start construction at any time. However, due to lack of funds, the Liverpool club did not even have the money to buy the land, and it has not been able to start construction. Dunn's words... "Are you going to invest in the construction of Stanley Park?" Rick Parry stood up excitedly, his face flushed, and he couldn't control his excitement. If he can complete the construction of a new stadium during his tenure, it will be the glory of history. Dunn smiled slightly, "It's a modern new stadium, but it's not a Stanley Park stadium." Rick Parry immediately said: "Yes, this name is too worthless. It can be called New Anfield, or ...It's called the New Universal Stadium!"
