Chapter 727: The Hundred-Billion-Dollar "Supporting Group"

Torres was sold for £6000 million.

Paul Konchesky sold for £150m.

Daniel Ayala sold for £80.

David N'Gog was sold for £400 million.

£1200m sale of Raul Moreles and.
Bought Ricky Lambert with a floating clause of £200 million + £100 million.

At the same time, they are pursuing Jordan Henderson, a 1200-year-old young player who plays for Sunderland, for £20 million to strengthen the defensive midfielder position.

Stop Hodgson's move for Andy Carroll from Newcastle which could have cost him £4000 million.

The sun has not yet landed at the John Lennon Stadium in Liverpool, adjacent to the River Mersey.

The letter signed and confirmed by him regarding the winter window cleaning list was leaked to the media by an insider hidden in the club.

To the extent that, before he even got off the plane, there were so many cameras and bullets in the photos on social media that it was impossible to count them.

"Wow, what a scene." Little John exclaimed after seeing the photos posted online.

Football is the sport that attracts the most media attention.

The influence of the first place is not exaggerated.

"Let Edwards investigate who leaked the list." Although Xiang Yang was criticized by British newspapers for not understanding football and being petty, he was not impressed by such remarks.

But he was a little unhappy that the internal documents were obtained so easily by outsiders.

It seems that it is not only the players who need to be cleaned up, but also the club's working team.

"I'll let him know right away."

Bi Shafer also put away the smile on her face. She could see that Xiangyang was very dissatisfied with this matter.

During the winter break window, if all the players on the roster can be sold smoothly.

Liverpool will receive nearly 8000 million pounds in revenue, which, combined with the players on the loan list, will free up a large amount of wage budget.

This will undoubtedly provide a positive impetus for quickly mitigating the risks associated with acquisitions.

However, the recruitment list is not very impressive.

Most fans only hope that the team can make big moves during the transfer window so that they can make timely adjustments.

However, adjustments came.

But it was different from what they expected.

Knowing what kind of people British fans are like, she couldn't help but worry about Xiangyang.

Just as I was about to say something, a flight attendant brought a satellite phone and handed it to me carefully.

"Boss, it's Musk calling."

Bi Shafer took a quick look at it and quickly handed it to Xiangyang.

"Oh, OK." Xiang Yang answered the phone and said with a smile, "Musk, I will land in about 30 minutes."

"Haha, then you have to wait for me at the airport." Musk smiled heartily.

He, who was also on the plane, told Xiangyang that how could he miss the opportunity to come to the British Isles to enjoy a unique game during the weekend.

"I'm not here alone, you have to give me the best box in Anfield," Musk said.

I'm here to support my friends, how can I do it alone?

He has many friends in Silicon Valley.

Peter Thiel.

One of the founders of Paypal, the valuation of Facebook, in which he invested, has increased significantly recently due to the hit movie "The Social Network".

Well, as a well-known venture capitalist, he was the first external investor in Facebook.

Sitting next to him was Max Levine.

In addition to being one of the original founders of PayPal, he runs Slide, the world's largest photo sharing website.

This website has in-depth cooperation with INS.

This website was just acquired by Google for 1.82 million US dollars two months ago, but the management and operation are still handled by Max Levin.

Although they had differences in investment direction, they did not work together and even had quarrels.

But after all, we are members of a group and the connection has never been broken.

Like Roelof Botha, the former CFO of PayPal.

After leaving PayPal, he joined Sequoia Capital. But when he received a call from Musk, he came despite his busy schedule.

Naturally, Reid Hoffman also appeared on this plane.

"I'll arrange it." Xiangyang touched his face.

He actually called over people from the "Bei Gang" in Silicon Valley.

This group of people, although some are still dormant.

But the influence has begun to show, and the largest small group in Silicon Valley in the future will be dazzling enough.

Now this group of people actually come to support me.

Unexpectedly, it was quite a big deal.

"You're welcome. They don't come here just to watch a football game." Musk told Xiangyang not to take it too seriously.

Taking this opportunity, both Peter Thiel and Max Levin wanted to meet and communicate with their friend.

To put it simply, Xiangyang can be considered half a Silicon Valley person because he is very close to him.

"Thank you." Xiangyang said sincerely.

If you think about it, it's true.

It seems that he has no specific intersection with these people, but their investment vision is similar, and their investments in the Internet field are basically very similar.

They are either optimistic about social media or traffic, and they even have their own opinions on big data and unmanned fields.

In particular, everyone holds shares in Tesla.

Among these people, there is also a strong interest in Xiangyang's shares in Whatsapp, INS and Uber.

However, nowadays these companies are the back gardens of Xiang Yang and others.

While developing steadily, it does not require a lot of capital.

Based on the compiled investment list and analysis of the data therein, they highly recognized Xiangyang's foresight in investment.

Not only has it invested in the most promising industries, it also has resources in the fashion field.

Get to know each other through support.

Maybe in the future, we can make money together.

At the very least, in the words of Peter Thiel, Hermès can rely solely on the HYS App, a social product, and its stock price will be reflected accordingly once the acquisition dispute with LVMH is over and the suspension is resumed.

And who is responsible for the specific operation of HYS?
That person is of course Xiang Yang, who is the executive director of Hermès and the creative director of HYS.

"Let the company send more cars. We have guests coming."

After hanging up the phone, Xiangyang immediately asked Bi Shafer to arrange for the reception of these Silicon Valley entrepreneurs.

This good thing is not beyond the reach of little John.

But he was not born with the brains for this.

After looking at his watch, he quickly called Axel.

Considering the worth of these people, it would have been fine if I didn't know they were coming, but now that I know, Axel must come over to receive them as well.

"Okay, I'll leave right away." Axel, who was waiting for Xiangyang in the hotel, asked his assistant to pack up immediately.

Half an hour later, he appeared at the airport just as Xiangyang arrived.

He frowned when he saw the crowd of reporters crowding at the airport gate.

"Mr. Axel, can you respond to the purge list leaked by a reporter?"

"Mr. Axel, does Hermes have the confidence to hand over Liverpool to a person who comes from a football desert?"

"Mr. Axel, will Hermès step up its recruitment next season to reverse the fans' protest against the club's new top management?"

"Mr. Axel."

Unlike a planned and controlled press conference, for this kind of interview at the airport, the newspaper media will not tolerate whether Axel is an executive of a top luxury brand.

If it weren't for the bodyguards and assistants in between, these microphones would have been pointed directly at his face.

"For Liverpool's future, everything will be decided by Xiang, who is in charge of HYS."

"!!!"

Axel's words caused an uproar among the reporters at the scene.

Over there, the protesting KOP fans also surrounded them in an instant.

At first, when they heard that Hermès, a top luxury brand, was acquiring Liverpool, many fans were quite supportive.

Even though he's French.

But Hermès has money.

Liverpool has no shortage of honors or stars, and also has a historical heritage that is difficult to match by other top Premier League clubs.

In their opinion, anyway.

Manchester United, who have already surpassed them in the number of top league titles, are shit.

But no one expected that it would be Hermes who acquired Liverpool.

Phew, it should be called HYS.

He actually continued the routine of the two previous poor American guys and wanted to sell people to make a profit. What the hell is this?

"That's not what we want. Axel and your partner, get out of here~ Uuuuu~"

"Hermes is a pauper. The seats at Anfield are going to be replaced with leather. They are so shabby that they are selling stadium tickets at the same price as their bags~"

"I lost my bicycle in France~ The police in Paris are in a state of panic~"

The Liverpool KOP fans who came to protest and stood outside the press area suddenly started clapping rhythmically and singing a song they had improvised.

The loud singing immediately gave the reporters an impetus.

This trip was not in vain.

Axel, who was standing in the crowd, was also speechless. If the seats at Anfield were really replaced with leather specially used by "BKC",

Are these tickets affordable for these fans?
Noisy!

"Mr. Axel, please come with us first." An executive of the Peel Holdings Group, which is responsible for airport operations, came over specially.

Seeing the fans like this, I broke out in a cold sweat.

With the help of security personnel, he quickly came to Axel.

"Okay, thank you." Axel smiled and nodded, seemingly not caring at all about the fans' singing.

He still has the necessary calmness.

"Mr. Xiang and his team have arrived and are resting in the lounge." The senior executive informed Axel in a low voice.

"it is good."

Seeing that he turned a blind eye to the fans' protest songs, the reporters who had been aroused really didn't want to let him in like this.

However, the airport security personnel are not vegetarians either.

After a while, he successfully arrived at the door of the lounge inside the airport.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Xiang Yang sitting on the sofa drinking coffee with great interest. He got angry and said, "Xiang, tell me, did you anticipate this before you called me?"

"How is that possible?" Xiang Yang was surprised. "I didn't expect these fans to be so enthusiastic. I just heard their singing."

Axel chuckled.

He would never believe Xiangyang's lies.

How could Xiangyang, who is well-versed in social media, not know that a large number of fans gathered outside the airport to protest?

Maybe, these people are still using Xiangyang's Whatsapp to connect with each other.

"I listened, they were all scolding you." Seeing Xiangyang calmly not caring about anything outside the airport, Axel said after slowing down.

"Then let them scold." Xiang Yang shrugged and said with a smile: "I think their idea is good. The VIP box at Anfield should indeed be upgraded."

Having said that, Xiangyang stood up, took the visiting list from Bi Shaffer, and handed it to Axel meaningfully.

"what do you mean?"

"I believe that more and more friends will come to Anfield to watch football in the future. Isn't this also the best window for us to showcase our products?"

At the side, the real estate developer who followed in, a senior executive of the Peel Holdings Group, had his eyes lit up.

wipe!
It’s still the luxury goods business, so you can make money.

The group of screaming fans outside are now jumping for joy.

When the time comes to pay for the tickets, I will probably cry to death.

As he was sighing, an airport staff member knocked on the door from outside. Musk and his team's plane was about to arrive.
"Why are there so many personal bodyguards?"

"The entire airport's security has been dispatched, right?"

"What's going on? Why is the shelf so big?"

"."

It’s not that Musk and others are arrogant.

It’s not that Xiangyang and Axel like to be extravagant.

But
"Bei Gang!"

I don't know which reporter is so quick-witted and speaks too quickly.

Through the thick explosion-proof glass, I saw Axel who had just entered, and Xiangyang who was being choreographed by the fans, chatting and laughing with a group of Silicon Valley bigwigs, and I shouted.

And with his shout, and the reporters' exclamations.

After a burst of commotion among the fans, there was silence in an instant.

Even football hooligans are not uneducated.

This wealthy group of entrepreneurs often appears in the public eye, whether on television, in newspapers or on the Internet.

Describe it in one sentence.

That is, "the last thing these people lack is money."

Just now, they were still using their own song to mock HYS for selling players because they were poor.

They never thought that after only half an hour, a "billionaire" fan club would show up to slap them in the face.

This is definitely a humiliation!
I have never seen a club chairman bullying his own fans like this!

"Xiang lost his bicycle in France ~ The police in Paris were in a state of panic ~ His friend Abu's yacht was drifting on the sea, but he could only walk around the street holding on to the two wheels ~"

After a short pause, the fans' singing started again.

Expressing their dissatisfaction.

"Hahaha, Xiang, even the British are concerned about you losing your bicycle."

Musk introduced everyone to Xiangyang and Axel one by one. After hearing the singing, he said that these fans were so "cute".

"If they are interested, they should help me look for it on the streets." Xiangyang shrugged.

In this case, it wasn't his person who was lost.

The French and the British have always had a bad relationship.

It is normal to have such operation.

"That's right, these guys are just idle. I don't believe that Liverpool won't lose bicycles!"

As expected, completely different from his good friend's indifference, Little John, who was standing with Bi Shaffer, complained indignantly in a low voice.

This made Bi Shafer frown when she heard his words.

"You can buy one and try it."

"." Little John was angry.

"Let me correct you. Crete is no longer a French territory."

"."
