Chapter 150： How about Liverpool?

"There is such a thing, it seems that the debt is too high to hold it, and I want to find someone to take the offer, why do you suddenly ask this?" Michael Bloomberg has always spoiled his daughter, and he should be gentle and gentle. Yang Cheng on Georgina's phone made her gums sore.

"It's not me, it's Jason. He intends to acquire a club. Liverpool is a good target." Georgina glared at Yang Cheng, motioning for his big hand to move away from her waist and make a call. Once he made a strange noise How embarrassing.

"This is not enough tossing every day." Michael Bloomberg didn't know Yang Cheng was eavesdropping.

Georgina chuckled and looked at Yang Cheng again, "Daddy, can you contact Fenway Sports for me? By the way, how much is the price for Liverpool?"

"Okay, Fenway declared that there is no one billion not to sell, but John Henry, the last time their boss came to talk to me, offered only 600 million pounds. This price is very sincere. After all, Liverpool is also one of the traditional giants. Even counting the debt is worth the price."

"ok, thank you daddy, I'll hang up first."

After putting away the phone, she turned her head to look at Yang Cheng, who was wringing her brows, stroked her hair and smiled, "What's the matter? She frowned."

"600 million pounds plus debt, is it worth it to buy a declining giant in a city like Liverpool?" Yang Cheng has also watched the game, but you want him to play the glorious history of which club, he really can't come out. , But as a business person, he knows something about the city of Liverpool. It is precisely because of this understanding that he hesitates in his heart. It would be good if he was in London.

Georgina turned sideways, smiled, holding her cheek to Yang Cheng's patient analysis, "Liverpool is indeed far inferior to Manchester in terms of economic development due to the retrogression of manufacturing in recent years."

Yang Cheng nodded in agreement and interjected, "Well, and Manchester has at least 2 million people, while Liverpool has a population of 5 or 600,000. This gap cannot be made up by the so-called second largest trading port alone."

In fact, for the two cities of Liverpool and Manchester, we have to mention the famous twin cities in British history. Throughout the time, their main contradictions are concentrated in a canal, a road and a team.

Today, if you come to the Albert Dock in Liverpool, you will find that the Mersey River, which guards the city, is calm, and you don’t see the magnificent scenery of the 18th century maritime trade ships. Even on a landmark pier like the top of the pier, it is hard to find The unique commercial and trade atmosphere of the port and docks, and the decline of Liverpool, is exactly the process of the city's return from heaven to earth, thanks to a revolution and a canal.

Liverpool reached the peak of urban development in the 18th century: it was once the second largest city in the UK after London. Relying on the disgraceful slave trade, Liverpool became the second largest port in Europe after Amsterdam. Britain was born here. At the beginning of the 19th century, 40% of world trade was completed through the Liverpool Dockyard.

However, with the advent of the Industrial Revolution, Liverpool, which adhered to traditional trade, fell behind, while Manchester, which is only 40 kilometers away from Liverpool, bucked the trend and became the new British industrial center by relying on the textile industry represented by ‘Jenny Machine’.

Because Liverpool is a major exporter of raw materials, many industries in Manchester must rely on the transmission of the Mersey River. This makes the people of Manchester sigh about the high transportation cost while secretly developing a canal for their own enjoyment.

At the end of the 19th century, the Manchester Canal was opened. It stretches for 58 kilometers from East Harlem to Manchester, perfectly allowing ships to bypass the Liverpool dock.

Liverpool people feel that their dignity has been violated and attacked the Manchester people with ridicule. They are'blue-collar old folks' who only understand manufacturing; Manchester people use the term ``to define Liverpool people, and they insinuate Liverpool people's use of'' Food, the temperament of the whole city is crude.

When the two sides have grievances, there must be a place to vent. Naturally, the two cities’ grievances continue on the green field. The annual Double Red Club carries too many stories and grievances, and it also leaves fans around the world. Countless classic scenes.

So many are just to prove one thing, Liverpool is not the best choice for Yang Cheng.

"But don’t forget, Liverpool is the European Capital of Culture and the best tourist city in the UK. Every year, millions of tourists visit the reconstructed Port Albert, the hometown of the Beatles, and experience Liverpool at Anfield. Football atmosphere, and when these tourists return to their hometown, they will convey what they have seen and heard in Liverpool to their relatives and friends. This kind of cultural communication ability is not available in Manchester."

Georgina cut into the analysis from such a unique angle, which made Yang Cheng's heart ignite a trace of interest, her eyes flickered, and she encouraged, "Continue~"

"Moreover, among the traditional eight giants, there is no Chelsea or Arsenal, but Liverpool. The glory of the giants will not be forgotten over time. As long as you take over the team and increase investment, introduce famous coaches, Top superstars, when their performance improves, they will naturally become the focus of the media. If you can win the Champions League, your name will be remembered by fans all over the world, and the products under your name will enter people as it should. In the sight of Yes, jason, think about your team winning the Champions League and being worshipped by fans. What a sense of accomplishment." The fat guy who has been silent for a while doesn’t know where he drilled. Come out to help Qiangdao.

"You shut up." Yang Cheng picked up the pillow from behind and threw it at Alan. It was him who killed him. He was okay to make bets with others, and the other party was probably from the Glazer family. That is, the owner of Manchester United makes him even more grudge, mmp, it happens that Liverpool are Manchester United's deadly opponents, once the acquisition is successful, they will dig a major player from Manchester United, will they be sprayed by Manchester United fans dead?

Haha, it's fun to think of it. Yang Cheng gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Buy it! My dear, contact Fenway's boss, I'm going to visit Liverpool in person, right? Their home game belongs to the club? If it's not the 600 million pounds Too bad."

Yang Cheng hit the board and dropped the hammer. Alan happily jumped the pig's dance steps. The bet was settled, and Georgina smiled. She was happy to help Yang Cheng, and Yang Cheng did not hesitate. Accepted her suggestion and satisfied.

"Okay, I will contact you as soon as possible. It just happens that the Premier League has just started just a few rounds. It shouldn't have much impact. And this winter break you have enough time to introduce stars and strive for a high ranking in the Champions League this season." Georgina He knows more about football than Yang Cheng, which made Yang Cheng think that it is better to buy the team and hand it over to Georgina to manage.

But he immediately dispelled this unreliable idea. He couldn't bear to leave Georgina alone in Liverpool, and he was afraid that Michael Bloomberg would kill him and smash his head with a cane.
