Chapter 385
An Feng was very happy to have a business done first in this trip. Although the preliminary negotiation was completed and Khalid had to take people to conduct actual inspections to get results, out of confidence in technology, An Feng believed that after they looked at it, their willingness to cooperate would only be stronger. As for the possibility of rejection, it was very small.
After talking about business, it’s just a trip. When it comes to playing, An Feng has to take Joanna to watch a ball game and then come back to participate in the foundation’s board meeting. This is a necessary itinerary given by the assistant. Even if the boss is a hand-off, he will be present at least once a year to listen to reports or decisions.
Especially in this game, the boss's wife has not appeared for a year. The players all hope that she can come to watch the game in the new season and bring some good luck to the team. Even the team's senior executives who called also conveyed the players' warm greetings and invitations, which was hard to refuse.
Khalid said: "I also want to go and watch the football game. The day after tomorrow, Liverpool and Manchester City, the big names will play together, which is said to be the most intense game since the start of this year."
"I welcome it very much!" An Feng said readily.
"I'll call a few more friends, I believe you can chat with you too. Do you still remember the last time Said?"
"Of course I remember, the prince of Dubai, right?"
Khalid nodded: "Sayed will have other companions when he goes with us. I hope you don't mind. In addition, if you are confident in greening technology and freshwater purification, I will help you. Although Sayed doesn't care about anything, it is still useful to talk to his family."
"This is OK, I have to thank you!" An Feng felt that Khalid was very interested. Before he could decide whether the business could be negotiated, he would help him get the order now.
...
An Feng thought about another thing at night: "Dear, you said that as the team owner, should you give some gifts to the players who play for Liverpool?"
Although Joanna cannot support them every time she comes, it is normal to give the players a gift. She forgot when she officially took over the team, and the gift was extended infinitely. Now that I think about it, it is time to give the players a gift.
"What is the right choice?" said Joanna.
"The players are all men, so they are naturally more masculine. They can't be too large. They have to be collected in these few days..." An Feng thought, "If it were a lady, it would be easier to deal with it. Give some jewelry, high-end perfumes, etc., but for men, can they give sports cars?"
"How about the watch?" Joanna made a suggestion.
"Yes!" An Feng nodded, "I have to let Goodridge do this quickly."
Later he called Goodridge, arranged things, and then called the club's senior management to confirm their attendance.
"Please tell the players that if you perform well this time, we will have a gift for you!" An Feng said.
...
Two days later.
An Feng originally felt that he was protecting his man in black and traveling with luxury cars was a bit high-profile, but after meeting with the Arabs, his thoughts disappeared immediately. Khalid and the Dubai prince were both Bentley and Rolls-Royce cars, plus a bunch of followers driving sports cars. He seemed to want to tell the whole world that this place is a rich man, and he welcomed to grab it.
Considering that the Saudi prince was stolen in Paris before, although these people were high-profile, they were not stupid. They went on a long trip to bring several cars of bodyguards. After An Feng got to know several important characters, he took out his cell phone when he got in the car and asked the stadium to find ways to increase the viewing seats in the stands. He has many friends.
The stadium was prepared for any eventuality this time. Knowing that the boss came, he would definitely bring bodyguards with him, so he booked a surrounding area. After the number of people was determined, he would just add a few more places. After An Feng received the reply, the convoy here also set out in a mighty manner.
Liverpool is not far from London, but it runs 300 to 400 kilometers around the road. From morning to afternoon, I went to the local booked hotel. The practice cannot be changed. Of course, it is the best and the most luxurious. Even the hotel owner is also involved in the game and the rich.
You should know that in London, the arrival of the Middle East's rich man means that high-end hotels are not on the day, but staying in ten or half a month. The surrounding luxury goods stores must also be prepared to welcome their storm. Usually, they will feel uncomfortable all over without spending their wallets and card money.
In the evening, they booked a meal in the hotel restaurant.
At the dinner table, Khalid introduced his Arab friends in detail to An Feng, and everyone exchanged their names at the dinner table. But to be honest, An Feng couldn't tell the difficult pronunciations, so he only remembered a few. Khalid promoted them the services of greening environment.
An Feng sent out the company's electronic business card with his mobile phone. He didn't expect these young people to make any big decisions, but their parents and elders had this ability. As long as Qatar's results came out, they would definitely be interested. After the exciting evening, they would go to Anfield Stadium the next afternoon.
On the day of the game, another weekend, parking spaces near the stadium were tight and fans frequently appeared.
A luxury car feast was staged on the side of the road. A luxury car stopped by the side of the road. The VIP came out, the car left, the next one came over and stopped, and someone continued to come out... The bodyguards were all in uniform black suits and sunglasses. When other passers-by saw it, they felt like they were filming a gangster movie.
If VIP hadn't taken photos around with Nokia to destroy the atmosphere, it would be like. An Feng walked in front and led the way. The stadium specially sent employees to receive the boss to wait nearby. When he saw the boss's wife, he came up and led them into the court. The game was about to begin, and the audience was full of spectators.
After Joanna appeared on the stadium, she enjoyed the treatment of a big brand: the fans around her applauded and cheered. In order to cater to the theme, she wore a red skirt and a small coat on her outside, which matched the red ones all over the mountains and fields. No wonder everyone was cheering.
From the moment she walked out of the passage, the camera was focused on her on the scene, and the commentator also mentioned her outfit today: "It seems that Dame Joanna is also very concerned about this game, and even her clothes fit the theme. This is also her first appearance on the stadium this year."
The staff led the way in front, the bodyguards followed around, and the fans around took photos of their mobile phones and cameras.
An Feng thought to himself: The treatment of beauties is different.
When someone called his name too, he turned around and saw that the other party took a photo of him and said loudly: "I like your racing car! Sir!"
"Thank you!" An Feng nodded.
Joanna smiled, "Does it feel good?"
The staff took them to the best view area. Joanna smiled and greeted the surroundings before sitting down, triggering more responses before sitting down. When Khalid and his party appeared, the camera footage stayed for a few more seconds, and the commentator said: "They were with the boss of Liverpool."
Because most of the people who come to watch the game support Liverpool at home. And the Arabs that are now appearing, including the children of the UAE rich and even members of the royal family, feel like they are singing the opposite tune for the away team Manchester City boss Mansour. Mansour is a wealthy UAE rich!
Whether around or looking at the big screen, they all looked at the center of the viewing table. This group of high-profile Arabs sat down, surrounded by bodyguards in black. The black was particularly conspicuous in a large red area, and also isolated the surroundings into a vacuum area to prevent strangers from approaching.
After the real big names and rich people sat down, they kept looking at each other, looking or discussing. There were many topics and speculations, and people began to gossip. They said that Dubai and Qatar royals were present, maybe because they were attracted by Liverpool, and some said that they were actually joking with the Manchester City boss.
Anyway, this area has become the most special in the audience today. In addition to the boss, it is the royal family, and there are also foreign wealthy people. The black-clothed bodyguards brought by each of them are also very imposing and serious. They allow people to see the luxurious lineup of the rich people watching the game.
It was not until the game started that everyone's attention was focused on the game.
When some senior executives of the team came, the positions were already full, surrounded by big Middle East brands and silent bodyguards. In the end, only CEO Al came to sit down in the reserved position next to him. The others stood on the railing next to him, which felt a bit desolate, but they were not rich and not celebrities, so no one would care about them... Even the camera likes to point the VIP seats temporarily marked by the bodyguard.
Al introduced the team's situation to An Feng and Joanna this year. They spent 60 million pounds to sell two players. With the purchase last year, the team's lineup has been completely renewed. It is very likely to win points championships this year and then regain its glory in the Champions League.
Al's words revealed a lot of confidence. No wonder, since the arrival of two American bosses, Liverpool's "wealthy family" has not become arrogant. After the dame from England took over, they built a new stadium and bought players with big money, and finally became proud.
An Feng looked at the players on the court. He hasn't watched the Premier League for a long time. Some young and latecomers have very strange names, but they heard that they are very valuable and famous. Liverpool got it at a high price. Manchester City, the visiting team, is also famous for being able to burn money, and the lineup is very strong.
This was a strong collision. At the beginning of the game, Liverpool was broken through the penalty area by Manchester City players at six minutes, but was intercepted by the defender in front of the shot. The fans of the game were silent. Only a small number of blue fans left to the visiting team were cheering, while KOP gave a thumbs down and booed.
This game has attracted much attention. The stadium is currently full and it is hard to find a ticket. The flags and fans at the scene have been brewing. When Liverpool also launches an attack and is about to reach the penalty area, the excited fans stand up, raise their hands and clench their fists, staring at them without turning their eyes.
The breakthrough was successful and the ball was passed to the newly bought center. The fans were already shouting. One of the high-priced centers got a vacancy. The opponent's player chased after him. Taking advantage of this gap, he shot a big foot near the penalty area, but was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper amid the shouts, and the football fell to the feet of the Manchester City player behind.
"Oh! Run quickly!" An Feng, who stood up, said disappointedly. After the ball was saved, if the Reds defender in the rear could pass the ball to his right forward, he might do it again. The opponent would not be able to stop it this time and might score.
After An Feng sat down, Joanna leaned over and said, "You are so serious, I just came on the camera."
"Is my hairstyle messy?" An Feng reached out and touched his short hair. In fact, his stylist has been tidying his short hair recently.
"Haha." Joanna smiled and waved at the arena: "Come on!"
An Fenghan: "You should shout cheers when they attack."
"Oh." Joanna looked around, but fortunately no one paid attention to her, but she was able to watch the football quietly. To be honest, it was already very considerate.
The evenly match made a breakthrough in the second half. Manchester City, which was commonly known as a big ups and downs, wanted to break out in the second half, but was too excited and foul. Liverpool made a free throw and led 1-0, which detonated all the fans of the game. Even the team's boss lady stood up and waved the flag to cheer them.
The performance of the Arabs behind them is also intense enough.
An Feng asked Said next to him and found out he had bought a lottery ticket.
They don't give gambling, but the lottery is a vague definition area, so these people use the fun on it. When they see Liverpool score a goal, they cheered and the camera also took this scene, and finally confirmed that the Arabs are really here to cheer for Liverpool.
The second half of the game was obviously more intense, and the final result was 2-1, and the Reds won the victory.
Finally, there was a celebration, the fans were reveling, Joanna walked to the locker room, looked at her new face, gave encouragement and congratulations, and the team coach announced: "This time, before Dame Joanna came, she promised us that if she would win, there would be a gift for her!"
"Welcome her again!" The team coach applauded.
Everyone formed a circle with Joanna as the center. She smiled and said, "I promised before that as long as you perform well in this game, you will bring you gifts. This is a watch brought from London. I don't know what brand you like, so I bought some!"
The players yelled.
Joanna continued with a smile: "Every player on the scene has a share!"
The players were boiling and started cheering, and there were still people singing. If it weren't for the boss being a lady, they would have come up to carry her into a ball.
An Feng asked his assistants and bodyguards to show off the gifts she brought to the players in London: various high-end watches. Because they were purchased temporarily, the models were not uniform, but they were all purchased towards the high-end brands, such as Vacheron Constantin, Earl, and Audemars Piguet.
"Don't worry! Come one by one!" An Feng said.
Usually, all kinds of free and easy and disobedient players are like elementary school students, queuing in line to wait for gifts, looking forward to the large number of gift packs on the table. Those who know the goods know that it is not cheap, and the cameraman who came in to shoot also recorded their performance and expressions.
Joanna gave them gifts one by one, and each of them was unpacking them impatiently to see what good things she got.
When I opened the gift, there were more cheers and strange screams on the scene.
I was proudly displayed, staring at me anxiously, looking forward to my gift.
Although watches are not customized, they are not cheap for top brands. Several watch franchise stores in Vacheron Constantin sell for more than 100,000 pounds. Those who are lucky will get more than 100,000 pounds. The average price is more than 100,000 pounds. More than 20 players will give out more than 3 million pounds at once.
The team boss’s magnificence is really no worse than the rich bosses of other money-burning teams.
The next day, The Sun reported this news that all players were drooling. The noble Dame gave a big gift to the winning Liverpool players. The top-notch watch was chosen at will, worth more than 100,000 yuan, which was equivalent to the weekly salary of outstanding players.
Chapter completed!
