v5 Chapter 2： Taiwan Development Investment

Early in the morning.

The streets of Madrid, the capital of Spain, are surging, and a new day has begun, and people at work are already preparing for busy work.

At the street bus station, when someone was waiting for the bus, they went to the roadside kiosk to buy the latest newspapers to pass the time. After a while, they heard a shout, "Gosh! Come and see!"

"What happened?"

After hearing the shouts, many people looked at it, and a few went directly to it, following the news in the newspaper.

This is an Aspen newspaper.

"Aspen" is a well-known football media under the Spanish media group PRISA. It was published on December 6, 1967. The founder is Luis Montier-Barransate and its headquarters is located on Albasanz Avenue in Madrid, Spain.

"Aspen" focuses on football reports, and football is the fastest-growing sport since 1996, so its circulation has been rising for more than ten years. At present, the newspaper has more than 200,000 copies per day. .

In the city of Madrid, newspaper kiosks on the street and small shops on the street can be bought everywhere.

The "Aspen News" published this morning surprised the passers-by with the news. The headline of the newspaper was very conspicuous, "Chinese mysterious company is negotiating the acquisition with the Hill family!"

"Little Hill is going to sell the club?"

"How can this be!"

"Don't we just qualify for the Champions League?"

"God!"

"I hope this is not true!"

"..."

Everyone was discussing, and then they looked down. The people who couldn't make up around them simply went to the newsstand and bought two more copies.

Soon everyone knew the news.

"Aspen" did not report with great certainty. The source mentioned in the newspaper was "According to reliable staff of Atletico Madrid", but "Aspen" has a good reputation and hardly makes false reports. , That is to say, this matter is likely to be true.

The detailed content of the article basically means that the Hill family is negotiating with a mysterious Chinese company called 'Taiwan Development Investment'.

The Chinese company hopes to acquire enough shares to control Atletico Madrid.

"What they mean, it's better to be able to acquire more than 90% ..."

With this incident, everyone around suddenly talked.

They didn't even have to wait for the bus to go to work.

These people live in the southern part of Madrid and are blue-collar workers in the city. In many people, Atletico Madrid represents the working class, so most of them are pure Atletico Madrid fans.

In fact, for foreign capitals who want to acquire Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid fans are not surprised. There are so many rich people in the world. There are also many people who want to be able to play and play football. It is no surprise then that Atletico Madrid is the target.

Without looking at the Premier League, are all teams controlled by foreign capital?

But what the Atletico Madrid fans cannot accept is that the Hill family really started negotiations with that Chinese company?

Why did Hill do this!

When it comes to Atletico Madrid, many people can think of Old Hill.

From a certain perspective, Old Hill is the real idol of Atletico Madrid.

When people talk about Atletico Madrid, they may not pay attention to the more than 200 players and 37 innocent coaches who have rushed here in the past 16 years, but they will never forget the old Hill: he has a unique vision and has brought a base to Atletico Madrid. Ke, Vieri, Camineiro, Hasselbaink, Juninho and Torres, he brought 2 Kings Cup champions and 1 historic double crown to the fans who love it, and In October 1993, the game was hailed as the most classic game in La Liga in 10 years (when trailing 0-3, the final 4-3 reversal defeated Barcelona, ​​which was so vigorous at the time); in 10 years, he found three league best games for the team. The good shooter, of course, two gold boots in the second year of the second grade, and Recino broke Zov ’s consecutive world record without scoring: more than 1275 minutes ...

Like his name, for Atletico Madrid fans, he is the Atletico Madrid-the savior of Spain's third largest club.

Under a series of auras, it was Old Hill's sharp gaze and unspoken tongue.

But now, no one will regret the departure of Old Hill, because "Jesus" did not really bring the gospel to Madrid, many times he is more like Satan-after the fans taste the joy of victory, they are always All kinds of disputes caused by him were tormented.

Old Hill was unobtrusive, arrogant, and surly by nature. He was kicked out of Benab ’s VIP box by former Real Madrid President Mendoza; he criticized the referee tirelessly every year, and the team would then eat more referees ’secret calculations; Regardless of the team's difficulties, the frequency of his quick coaching also set a world record: 37 coaches were swept away by him in 16 years, and the shortest was just to leave after a three-game losing streak.

After leaving many famous coaches in succession, he finally put Atletico into **** completely: On May 7, 2000, Atletico fell to the second level after 66 years.

In the first season of Class B, Lao Hill changed three coaches, but still did not bring the team out of crisis. At the same time, the team's debt has reached 66 million euros. Lao Hill has also embezzled public funds and two sons. After entangled with the court for 3 years, the sanctions were not escaped.

Rather than saying that Old Hill was physically and mentally haunted, it was better to say that he himself pushed the team to the brink of collapse.

In 2004, when Old Hill died, the Aspen newspaper commented, "He is a real Atletico, even paying transfer fees for Atletico Madrid; but he is also a profitable businessman. Atletico is In his name, it is more for his own pockets. His departure does not mean the disappearance of the "Hill effect". After all, he has not transferred his 95% stake in the club, but at least he can let this already The tormented club has a calm summer, without argument, criticism and internal friction, only pure football. "

"I have lost a Raul. I don't want to lose Torres anymore. Let Futre (former Atletico manager, current player agent) stay away from Atletico Madrid. I hope you will not sell Nino (Torres' nickname).

This is the last words that Old Hill said before he died.

After Old Hill left, the manager of the club became his son, Little Hill. Little Hill did not lose to Old Hill in management enthusiasm, especially in the introduction, and he also brought to Madrid Better results in athletics.

Last season, Atletico Madrid ranked fourth in La Liga, as evidenced by the qualification for the Champions League.

Seeing that the club is booming, the results are getting better day by day, and will soon enter the ranks of the giants, and compete with other European powerhouses, how could Xiao Hill consider selling the club?

Atletico Madrid fans do not understand.

One stone shocked a thousand waves!

After the "Aspen" report, the Spanish football circle suddenly became hot, and various media in Spain launched a detailed investigation.

"Aspen News" disclosed two points: First, the Hill family is considering selling shares, and second, the name of the mysterious Chinese company-Taiwan Development Investment.

The second point is the core of their investigation.

Taiwan Development Investment, this name is too unfamiliar to the Spanish media, they do n’t even understand the pinyin name of 'taiwan', but everything is easy to handle if they have the name, they quickly investigate the registration time of this Chinese company In just one year, the registered capital is 100 million yuan, which is roughly equivalent to about 10 million euros.

A company with assets of 10 million euros wants to acquire Atletico Madrid?

What a joke!

This is absolutely impossible!

So the Spanish media continued to investigate, and even in order to be able to understand the details, some media directly sent people to China to conduct interviews and investigations, and the results were obtained after only two days.

This "Taiwan Development Investment", registered for only one year, without any business within one year, is equivalent to a company name of RMB 100 million.

Then they found the name of the registrant, "Kevin Tagore"?

Kevin Tagore?

This name is familiar ...

Soon someone found the information-Kevin Tagore, CEO of Tagore Group, last year's Forbes ranking, Kevin Tagore ranked 901, personal assets of 1.9 billion US dollars!

"Marca" immediately disclosed the news, "The registrant of the mysterious Chinese company that acquired the Atletico Madrid club is Kevin Tagore, CEO of Tagore Wan Investment Group."

No matter what the Spanish media reports, Atletico Madrid fans are very dissatisfied with the club's acquisition. They don't want their favorite club to be controlled by a Chinese company.

In the eyes of many Atletico Madrid fans, the only person in charge of the Atletico Madrid club is the Hill family.

The current chairman, Cerezo, is also a good assistant to Lao Hill. He has been the vice president of the club before. After Lao Hill passed away, he officially took over as the president of the club.

Atletico Madrid fans are satisfied with this situation, especially since 2005, the club's performance has been rising, and won the league fourth last season.

In this case, they do not want to see the club change.

Especially ... Chinese company acquisition?

The future must have become uncertain.

So they were very dissatisfied. For two days in a row, fans raised their flags in front of the Atletico Madrid club.

Atletico Madrid fans hope to put pressure on the club and the Hill family to stop them from thinking about selling the club.

Faced with this situation ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Soon the Atletico Madrid official also issued a statement saying, "The negotiations are continuing, Mr. Hill has not considered selling all the shares, but just hopes to introduce some investment to Atletico Madrid ... "

This only reassured Atletico Madrid fans.

—

Atletico Madrid officials said "Mr. Hill did not consider selling all shares", which is not the case.

The negotiations have already begun.

After more than a week of contact between the two parties, Tagore Group hopes to acquire 51% of the shares of Atlético Madrid in the name of the branch company ‘Taiwan Development Investment’.

This is the bottom line.

The biggest problem is that the Atletico Madrid board of directors, that is, the share distribution is a bit confusing, because if you want to buy enough shares, you must not miss a name--

Miguel Angel-Hill-Marin! (To be continued.)
