Chapter 254 Avram Glazer

Around 7:[-], Wu Qian and his team arrived outside the stadium. At this moment, there was no way to park their cars in the stadium parking lot. Five cars were parked in a parking lot two kilometers away, and a group of six people walked towards the stadium.

"It's just a football match. There are quite a lot of people. If it wasn't for the no-fly zone, it would be nice to fly a helicopter directly..." Wu Qian said.

"Boss, believe me, Manchester United's home game is absolutely wonderful! The few people here are nothing, you will know in a while."

Not long after he finished speaking, Wu Qian was dumbfounded when he saw the fans queuing up to enter the stadium. He didn't have a concrete concept of the number of 7 people in his mind, but when he saw the long queues, he understood up!

Red, blue and red, the two long teams are clearly separated, and the fans clearly know that now is not the time to talk, and everything will be discussed after entering the stadium!

Because Wu Qian found a better place to watch the game through special channels, the four tickets purchased by James May were useless. He saw two men and two women sitting on the side of the road with sad faces because they had no tickets, so he decided to leave Tickets were given to them.

Before James May sent the tickets, he also "carefully" determined whether the other party was a Red Devils fan. Looking at it, if the other party was a Barcelona fan, James May would definitely not give them tickets.

Wu Qian and his group didn't have to follow the fans to enter the arena. He entered the stadium through a special passage. When he stood on the top of the north stand and looked around, he was completely shocked by the scene in front of him.

I always hear that someone held a concert with 8 people, a game with 10 people, and the impact of 10 people can't be felt from the computer screen. .

At this moment, the waves of red waves are coming and going. Although the game has not started yet, there is no cheering and cheering, only ordinary conversations, but the voices in the stadium are still not small. The crowds can't describe the grand occasion of the scene. crowded.

Wu Qian believed that if it wasn't for the ticket restrictions, people would pile on each other, and the atmosphere at the scene was indescribable, just like the kind of explosive barrels whose fuses have been ignited, just wait for a moment, and then they will explode.

"It's... no wonder sometimes football matches can lead to danger. There are so many people, it's really scary..." Wu Qian said.

"Boss, although there have been fan conflicts in football games, they are rare now. Football is not dangerous, and it has made a lot of contributions to world peace."

David told Wu Qian that in 1976, Pele visited Nigeria with the Santos Football Club, and it happened that the Nigerian Biafra civil war broke out at that time.

At that time, both sides in the civil war were fans of Pele. In order to see the style of the ball king Pele, the two sides in the war reached a rare 48-hour truce agreement. This incident became the only consolation of the war that killed 300 million people in three years.

The same incident happened once in Africa. In 2006, Côte d'Ivoire held the African Cup, but the rebels in Côte d'Ivoire had a serious conflict with the government forces, and a full-scale civil war was about to break out.

On the day of the match, the anti-government armed forces issued a statement: For the normal progress of the African Cup football match, they decided to negotiate a peace and truce with the government forces.This is the first time football has prevented a war since the Nigerian ceasefire in 1967.

Wu Qian had never heard of these news, and he looked at David in surprise.

David smiled and said: "Boss, let me tell you that similar things happened in Rosalind's hometown. Palestine and Israel, you see, the two countries are incompatible, but during the World Cup, the Palestinian extremist organization Hamas and Fatah had a one-month ceasefire, and Israel also provided Palestine with a free World Cup live signal."

Wu Qian had a look of surprise on his face. These things are really amazing. He never thought that the charm of football would be so great. It's incredible!
In the end, David and Cooks looked at each other with a smile, and Cooks said: "Actually, the first football armistice happened during World War I, and it happened to Britain and Germany. Truce incident', David, good brother, Bayern Munich is the strongest..."

The smile on David's face froze, and he quarreled with Cooks for a few words with a constipated expression.

Wu Qian shook his head with a smile, walked to the side of the "three lowly guests", and said, "Let's go down together."

The best stand position for P in the VIP is in the middle and lower part of the northern stand, where there is a specially enclosed special stand with about 50 chairs.This special stand is specially prepared for privileged people. For example, sometimes there will be national dignitaries or wealthy businessmen who come to watch the game, and they will sit in this area.

This area forms a certain isolation from the outside world. You can feel the enthusiasm of the fans without being harassed. The design is very reasonable. Of course, the vision of watching the game is also very good.

At this time, there are already more than 20 people in the special area, most of them are bodyguards, and only 4 people who can really have a seat are sitting and talking together, and there are also a few ladies who act as "vases".

The vases are sitting beside them very elegantly. It is not easy to be a vase beside these people. Just relying on a face is definitely not enough, and it is impossible without full self-cultivation.

Avram Glazer, the contemporary head of the Glazer family, the big boss of the Manchester United club, an American Jew in his 50s, always with a smile on his face, the Glazer family controls tens of billions of assets internally, as a Avram, one of the descendants, is in a good mood every day.

Ed Woodward, the current CEO of Manchester United Club, Ed Woodward, who was a senior staff member of Magic Chase in 2005, participated in the acquisition of Manchester United by the Glazer family, and later became the financial planning director of Manchester United. In 13 years, he was promoted to CEO and reached the pinnacle of his life...

Ed Woodward is a good player in making money. Before he took office, he had already won a lot of sponsorship for the club, which increased the club's income by 7000 million pounds, and surpassed Bayern Munich to become the first football club brand worth more than 10 billion dollars.

But for the football team, what fans value more is not how much money you can make, you have to be able to play football. You can make a lot of money, but what kind of shit is it if you always lose the game...

"If you can't attract the best players, you don't think Manchester United has anything to be proud of to form a partnership with a candy company in Southeast Asia, a tire company in India or a motorcycle company in Thailand." So fans confided online.

Apart from the two high-level executives of the Manchester United club, there are two other prominent people in the special stand. Among them is a figure familiar to Wu Qian, Labo Erkan, the descendant of the Agnelli family is also here.
