Chapter 148: Acquisition of Manchester United (Part I)

Jiang Feng frowned, thinking about it.

"He asked me to go to the Hilton to talk, what should I do?" Despite some panic, Liu Haifeng still stabilized his mentality.

"You sue Li Zhijie, we want all his stocks, but you have to perfunctory him, pretending that we don't have enough funds now, and it takes one to two days to raise them. Don't trade with them for the time being, hang their appetite first, I estimate that Xiaomi Group will not leave the market so quickly, and their goods will be shipped out, at least 1-2 days, or even longer. Jiang Feng analyzed.

"That's just as well." Liu Haifeng also agrees with Jiang Feng's opinion, now that the stock of Xiaomi Group is like a rainbow, who would have thought that it would be greasy? Even if there is, they will be in the fire. As long as you can delay it for a day or two, it would be nice to buy time.

"Mr. Liu," Jiang Feng continued, "remember not to expose our intentions, and when you contact Li Zhijie, try to show that your interest is still there." Well...... If necessary, you can open a price of 48 yuan or more to stabilize them. Buy us more time to ship. ”

"Okay, I see." Liu Haifeng agreed, and then the two made an appointment to keep in touch.

After Jiang Feng hung up the phone. This is a great sigh of relief. Fortunately, Liu Haifeng was able to find Liu Haifeng in time and recovered the loss. Liu Haifeng is an old fox, he should be able to deal with Li Zhijie.

Jiang Feng didn't expect that they would suddenly sell the stock this time, which allowed Li Zhijie to gain the upper hand. It is estimated that Li Zhijie confused himself from the beginning, making Jiang Feng think that he would stand on Mi Chunmei's side and keep the controlling stake of Xiaomi Group, but now people are pursuing the maximization of interests, and he almost let himself be tricked.

But now Jiang Feng is planning to do his thing, as long as he waits for Liu Haifeng's side to successfully drag him, then it may be Jiang Feng's side who has the initiative.

40% of their stock is going to be shipped, and there are not a few days that can't be done. And Jiang Feng didn't think that they would run it all, after all, they also wanted to hold the company. However, if they sell most of the shares at this price. Then they must have made a lot of money, Jiang Feng didn't want them to have such a good time.

"Wait and see, Li Zhijie, I'll make you look good. Hum! Jiang Feng sneered in his heart and turned his head back to the trading room.

"How's it going?" Jiang Feng asked.

Lu Xuedie and Irina are directing their subordinates to work intensely.

"It's ideal, we've started to sell the shares we bought yesterday, and the stock price of Xiaomi Group is still climbing, and we're shipping at the price of 45 yuan." Lu Xuedie turned her head and said.

"Good. Take your time, we still have time tomorrow. How much can you run today. Jiang Feng nodded.

"I said Mr. Jiang, if you can ship at this price, you will make a lot of money." Irina said.

Most of Jiangfeng's shares were bought at the price of 25 yuan, and selling at this time was simply a profit.

However, Jiang Feng shook his head, although he was happy to make money, but his original main purpose was to control Xiaomi Group, because Mi Chunmei's provocation made him very angry. However, it seems that this goal will be achieved. Now the chances are slim. In this sense, his original plan was a failure.

However, in such a situation, Jiang Feng would not stick to the original plan. He's not a fool. The kind of victory that cost a lot of money, he would rather not.

"Let's talk about it when we make money when our stock is out." Jiang Feng seemed a little excited, no matter what, this time he was in the competition with that Mi Chunmei. Lost, "I'll go first, if you Zongzong comes back." Just tell her what we're going to find out about now. ”

After saying hello, Jiang Feng left the Jiang Group, leaving only Lu Xuedie and Irina facing each other there, not knowing what Jiang Feng wanted to do.

Jiang Feng drove the car and rushed home, when the mobile phone rang again. Jiang Feng picked it up and took a look, and found that it was Jiang Lingyu calling. Jiang Feng quickly understood that what Jiang Feng had given her had been completed.

Jiang Feng answered the phone and asked, "Lingyu, is the acquisition of Manchester United completed?" ”

Jiang Lingyu smiled and said happily: "Master, how do you know?" ”

Jiang Feng said: "You have rarely called me for more than a month, and now that you are calling, there should be no other possibility except for this matter." ”

Jiang Lingyu said: "The master is worthy of being the master, and he guessed it as soon as he guessed it." Yes, we now have 81% of Manchester United shares in our hands and are making a bid to the remaining minority shareholders. By buying those minority shareholders, we can demand that Manchester United be delisted from the stock market. ”

"That's good, Lingyu, well done!" Jiang Feng said with a smile.

"Hehe, master, this is what I should do." Jiang Lingyu smiled and said, "Master, in this acquisition, we encountered strong resistance from the Glazer family in the United States, and they also intend to buy Manchester United. ”

Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "The Glazer family also wants to buy Manchester United?" ”

Although Jiang Feng knew that in another time and space, the Glazer family did buy Manchester United, which was one of the main reasons why Jiang Feng decided to start in advance and buy Manchester United. However, that was two years later, in 2005. Why are the Glazer family already attacking Manchester United now? Is it because of his own appearance?

"Yes, master, the Glazer family has been coveting Manchester United for a long time. Before we started buying up a sporadic stake in Manchester United, the Glazer family already owned around five per cent of the company's shares. We met in the stock market, and after we found out about their acquisition, the Glazer family quickly found out about our move......" Jiang Lingyu reported to Jiang Feng.

After listening to Jiang Lingyu's narration, Jiang Feng learned that in China, when he was fighting with Taiji Pharmaceutical Group and now Xiaomi Group in the stock market, Jiang Lingyu's Jiang Investment Fund was also fighting to the death with an American business tycoon on the British stock market.

It turned out that the Glazer family had coveted Manchester United for a long time, and before Jiang Feng took action, the Glazer family had begun to buy shares in Manchester United piecemeal. Jiang's Investment Fund is now joining the crowd, and the two sides are competing in the stock market.

Because of the competition between the two giants, coupled with Manchester United's gradual approach to the league title after many difficulties, Manchester United's stock price has risen rapidly. gradually exceeded the normal market rules, which caught the Jiang Investment Fund and the Glazer family off guard.

After a 2001/02 season with no hands, the United boss began to bolster his squad in the summer transfer market, with the result that Leeds and England national team's main centre-back Leo Brown. Rio Ferdinand joined for a record £30 million to fill United's biggest weakness. Despite disappointing injuries and a number of mid-season mistakes at the start of the season, Leo proved his worth and helped United regain the Premier League title.

In addition, in the summer transfer market, Manchester United also sold striker York. Despite the fact that Di Canio, Nuno. Gomez had hoped to wear the Red Devils' number 9 shirt, but it didn't work out. Now it seems that Ruud van Nistelrooy has done a good job of the forward line, and with the firepower of Paul Scholes, Manchester United with only three strikers is even more attacking than any other team.

In midfield, Leverson's only target in the summer is Patrick Vieira, who is looking to strengthen his squad by weakening his opponents. Beckham, who gradually showed the temperament of a superstar, had constant friction with the old man, but in the end, Manchester United still won the championship with the same lineup as last season.

Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are three teams that are considered the favourites by bookmakers before the start of the season. After watching the performances of the other two teams at the pre-season Charity Shield, Ferguson was proud to say they would return to the title.

However, after the start of the season, Manchester United had a very poor start.

Before the official start of the league season, Manchester United's heavily built back line was suddenly hit hard, Rio Ferdinand was unable to play, and Brown was injured. Their debut to the new season at Old Trafford was not pretty, as they battled Premier League newcomer West Blomwich Albion for 90 minutes before the super-substitute scored the only goal for United after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer replaced Argentinian Veron on 60 minutes and his opponent was sent off.

The Reds followed with back-to-back draws with Chelsea and underdogs Sunderland, which was considered their worst start to the season, but on the other side, the Reds managed to make it out of the Champions League qualification stage and reach the group stage.

In the following fourth round, United narrowly managed to win at home to Middlesbrough thanks to a penalty from Ruud van Nistelrooy.

In the fifth round, United lost at Old Trafford and Bolton narrowly beat Manchester United thanks to a goal from Nolan. Although Ferguson used the cause of injury to excuse his disciples, the worst start in the past 10 seasons also made the old coach look gloomy.

Afterwards, against Rio Ferdinand's former club Leeds United, United continued their poor form once again, and a goal from Australian Colwill made the Reds even worse. At the same time, Arsenal beat Charlton Athletic 3-0 and accumulated 14 points to win the Premier League.

However, the Reds have since returned to form and have won six consecutive Champions League and league games, including league victories over Tottenham, Charlton Athletic and Everton, and the points have started to slowly improve. Especially against Charlton Athletic, their comeback brought back confidence to the rest of the squad.

The Reds then fell into a slump again, and while they maintained their momentum in the Champions League group stage, they don't seem to be at their best on both fronts. After a European international break, they drew with Fulham and Aston Villa in quick succession, and although they won Southampton at home, the media have begun to announce the death sentence of Manchester United in advance due to the Manchester derby.

Leading the table at this stage was Liverpool, who were eight points ahead of Manchester United at the time. (To be continued.) )
