The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 1052
1052 Florentino’s Outlook
Cristiano Ronaldo has won this year’s World Player of the Year!
Cristiano Ronaldo became Mr. Double, and now the big media are covering it like crazy. Cristiano Ronaldo has been on the screen for the past two days.
That night, Zhong Cheng and Cristiano Ronaldo did not leave directly. Instead, they stayed in Switzerland for the night, preparing to leave the country the next day.
Not long after returning to the hotel, Zhong Cheng welcomed the first group of people!
Yes, this is the first batch!
It’s Florentino Perez!
Yes, this is the former president of Real Madrid, the man who built the generation of galactic warships and proposed the “Zidane + Pavin” policy.
He is not currently president of Real Madrid, but he is actively planning to return to Real Madrid and become president of Real Madrid again.
The election for Real Madrid’s president is coming soon.
With Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon’s term expiring in 2010 and only a year left, Florentino Perez has to prepare.
Of course, Ramon Calderon has been under-informed since joining Real Madrid, which is why Florentino Perez is ready to join the club.
Now, Florentino Perez, like back then, wants to bring in a number of super-powerful stars to Real Madrid to rope in Real Madrid fans and vote for him to return to Real Madrid.
Florentino Perez has long valued Cristiano Ronaldo. Ramon Calderon is also eyeing Cristiano Ronaldo. The two of them are competing to see who can get the important weight of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Recently, Ramon Calderon’s negative news was getting more and more. Florentino Perez felt that Ramon Calderon was about to lose his patience. He wanted to speed up the pace and bring in Cristiano Ronaldo as soon as possible, so he came to find Zhong Cheng.
Real Madrid’s president, Ramon Calderon, has been making too many negative headlines lately, such as cheating in general meetings, misappropriating public funds, taking commissions, illegally recruiting players and so on.
One of the most shocking things was that Ramon Calderon was lying at the general meeting.
Not long after Ramon Calderon’s arrival at Real Madrid, Real Madrid began to slip and their results were getting worse and worse. Fans and members were very dissatisfied with Ramon Calderon and complained about him.
Not long ago, a month ago, Ramon Calderon was dismissed from office at the Real Madrid General Assembly on December 7, 2008, to prevent his impeachment. He had more than a dozen non-voting trusted aides cast their votes in favour of him.
When it was discovered that the opposition was opposed, Ramon Calderon cut the mess and immediately found a scapegoat, firing two club executives in an attempt to muddle the matter through.
But just recently, the Spanish newspaper Marca revealed the incident, causing Real Madrid fans to complain and call on Ramon Calderon to scram.
Of course, Marca also claimed that after Ramon Calderon became president of Real Madrid, his friends and relatives became staff members of Real Madrid without any clearance procedures. As long as he spoke, these people would be legal and would not even be allowed to participate in the assessment. These people didn’t need to do any work and were paid higher wages than the average person, causing complaints from the inside of the club.
Ramon Calderon is now under investigation by Spanish authorities and is likely to face up to six months and three years in prison, the newspaper said.
It was precisely because of these problems that Florentino Perez saw an opportunity. He feels that Ramon Calderon won’t last long and is likely to resign soon.
That’s why Florentino Perez is so anxious now.
Florentino Perez wondered if Ramon Calderon, who had just resigned and brought Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid with him, would not have the support of all Real Madrid fans?
And, if he stays with Cristiano Ronaldo at Real all the time, who else can compete with him for the position of president of Real Madrid?
Now, Florentino Perez was in front of Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng extended his right hand to Florentino Perez and said, “Hello, Mr. Florentino!”
Florentino Perez extended his right hand to Zhong Cheng, “Hello, Mr. Loria!”
Zhong Cheng gestured for Florentino Perez to sit down and let Julia Olivera serve him a cup of coffee.
Zhong Cheng looked at Florentino Perez quietly without any intention of speaking.
Florentino Perez smiled and said, “Mr. Loria, I think you should know why I’m here today!”
Zhong Cheng nodded slightly and said, “Of course I understand!”
Yes, Zhong Cheng did not deal with Florentino Perez. Instead, he was straightforward, because he was indeed tired today. Zhong Cheng wanted to rest early.
Florentino Perez immediately said, “So what do you think of Mr. Loria? We’re taking Cristiano Ronaldo away!”
Zhong Cheng immediately shook his head and said, “No, no, no! Cristiano Ronaldo is not for sale at our club, we will not sell him!”
Florentino’s brows furrowed, which was beyond Florentino Perez’s expectations,
For Cristiano Ronaldo, Florentino is a must!
Florentino Perez immediately said, “We’re offering 80 million euros. Think about it, this is 80 million euros!”
Zhong Cheng chuckled and said, “Can you take away the Double Footballer of the Year with 80 million now? I think Mr. Florentino is still alive in 2002!”
Florentino’s eyes narrowed as he stared fixedly at Zhong Cheng.
After a while, Florentino asked, “Then how much do you think it will cost to take Cristiano Ronaldo?”
Zhong Cheng shook his head slightly and said, “I still say that. Cristiano Ronaldo is not for sale at our club. We will not sell him!”
Florentino Perez stared sharply at Zhong Cheng as if he was exerting pressure on him.
Zhong Cheng smiled faintly. He looked very relaxed and didn’t say anything.
Florentino Perez pondered for a moment and then said, “90 million euros, what do you think?”
Zhong Cheng smiled and said, “It’s not about the money. It’s about the fact that Leeds United really don’t want to sell Cristiano Ronaldo. He’s not for sale at our club!”
Florentino stared fixedly at Zhong Cheng, not saying anything, as if he wanted to see through Zhong Cheng with a single glance.
Zhong Cheng still smiled and said, “Mr. Florentino, I don’t think you should bother. Cristiano Ronaldo, we won’t sell it!”
Florentino Perez was a little angry. He stared fixedly at Zhong Cheng and said, “What do you think of 100 million euros? I think it’s better not to be too greedy, don’t you think?”
Zhong Cheng directly stood up and said, “Yes, I also agree that people should not be greedy. Just guard one-third of an acre of land, don’t covet other people’s things!”
With that, Zhong Cheng stared at Florence Perez harmlessly!
Florentino Perez stared sharply at Zhong Cheng and said, “Looks like Mr. Loria really doesn’t want to sell Cristiano Ronaldo.”
Florentino Perez saw through Zhong Cheng’s intention to see him off. Then, he stood up and turned around to leave.
However, just as Florentino Perez was about to leave the room, he suddenly stopped.
Florentino Perez turned to Zhong Cheng and said, “Sometimes, it’s better not to be too confident. Real Madrid can still pay the penalty!”
Florentino Perez was clearly threatening Zhong Cheng.
Looking at Florentino Perez’s sharp eyes, Zhong Cheng smiled faintly and said, “If Real Madrid are willing to pay a penalty of £ 150 million, I don’t mind you taking Cristiano Ronaldo away.”
Even Florentino Perez’s heart trembled when he heard the huge penalty.
What’s 150 million pounds? It’s almost 200 million euros!
Yes, to put it bluntly, it can really be said to be 200 million euros!
Even Real Madrid and Florentino Perez would not have been able to buy a player for 200 million euros, or even imagine it!
Isn’t this too damn ridiculous? The players haven’t even entered the hundred million yuan era yet. Could it be that they’re going to directly soar to two hundred million yuan?
Apparently, Florentino Perez didn’t dare to do that either!
Florentino Perez stared at Zhong Cheng and gritted his teeth for a while before saying, “You’re fine. I hope you can be so tough in the future!”
With that, Florentino Perez left with his men!
Watching Florentino Perez leave. Zhong Cheng smiled faintly. He did not believe that Florentino Perez was willing to pay 200 million euros for Cristiano Ronaldo. Real Madrid fans will not agree even if he is willing to give.
200 million euros is enough to buy a club that has always been very good, just buy one person, this f*ck is crazy!
Therefore, Zhong Cheng wasn’t worried at all about Florentino Perez!
Even if Florentino Perez went to Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent, Jorge Mendes, it would be useless for Cristiano Ronaldo to put pressure on Leeds United.
First of all, Cristiano Ronaldo and Leeds United still have a long contract. If Cristiano Ronaldo jumps out and makes a fuss, the only one who will suffer will be himself!
Moreover, Cristiano Ronaldo may not have the mood to leave Leeds United for Real Madrid. If he did, he would not have chosen Leeds United and moved to Real Madrid.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng was not worried at all about Florentino Perez, they were unable to take Cristiano Ronaldo away from Leeds United.
