Chapter 120 Change of Owners
The 2004-2005 season of the Premier League finally came to an end, and Chelsea finally won their first Premier League championship without any suspense, making history.This also made Mourinho's reputation soar again and he became a world-class coach.And other traditional Premier League giants have also entered the Champions League next season as they wished, but the desire for the Premier League championship will also indicate that the Premier League next season will be more intense and cruel.

Chen Zhun was sitting in the office at this moment, not thinking about the tactics, the players, or the league.It was a complete relaxation. After a season of intensive work, his body was very uncomfortable. However, although the league is over, the finishing work has just begun.A series of arrangements for the next season will start today.Goals, signings, team building, hardware improvements.But now all work is at a standstill due to the club's change of ownership.

The matter of changing ownership has come out from the state of being in the dark before, and it is now known to everyone. What happened in the sun is only because Manchester United was also acquired, and Southampton was acquired. The news seems to be insignificant, and not many reporters will pay attention to this matter.But it also made the new boss quite gratified.Because he didn't want to expose himself under fluorescent lights.

The players have already taken their holidays and started their vacation life, but the sad head coach Chen Zhun still has to work for a while.Press officer Yang Sen revealed to Chen Zhun the exclusive inside news of the change of owner.The change of the club's owner has been reported, and it is estimated that it will be officially announced on the official website in a few days. Not surprisingly, the new owner of the Southampton club is the legendary consortium from China.

Chen Zhun also never saw the chairman Rupert Lowe again. He heard from Yang Sen that the new boss told him that he could not go to work because he was old after all.

Such an ending is really embarrassing.But this may be the best home for Rupert Lowe.

Chen Zhun imagined meeting those familiar people, easy?Awkward?Chen Zhun shook his head with a smile. The relationship between the boss and his subordinates cannot return to the scene of drinking like before.It's just that Chen Zhun still doesn't know that the real boss is his ex-girlfriend's current boyfriend. Sometimes fate likes to make jokes like this with you, and then quietly looks at your embarrassing look at a loss.

Time slowly, slowly spent two days.Chen Zhun went to and from work as usual in these two days, just lamenting how time can pass so slowly and so boring, he even wants to hurry up the next season's journey directly.

On the boring third day, as soon as Chen Zhun arrived at the club, he found that everyone was very busy. He found Yang Sen among the strange crowd. Owner of Southampton Club.

Yang Sen's answer surprised Chen Zhun, and he asked Yang Sen several times before he slowly accepted the fact.It turned out that I had always mistakenly believed that Lin Seshu was the new owner of Southampton Club, but who knew that the real owner was Yue Hun.This is the person I don't want to see the most.This is really a big irony.

Feeling dizzy, Chen Zhun walked into his office in a daze, but after only resting for a while, Yang Sen came to his office again.Inform Chen Zhun to attend the press conference. This is the first time the new boss has appeared in public view.

Chen Zhun followed Yang Sen to the press hall of St. Mary's Stadium.Chen Zhun also saw the familiar but unfamiliar Lin Seshu and Yue Hun.Friends who used to drink and chat together have now become a clear relationship between superiors and subordinates. I really don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Yue Hun and Lin Seshu also saw Chen Zhun coming from the gate, and nodded to him with a smile, and Chen Zhun also nodded in response.Then he walked to the seat next to Lin Se's book and sat down.

Lin Seshu turned her head and whispered to Chen Zhun: "I was so sorry before, I kept it from you for a long time, but now that it's finally announced, we feel much less guilty."

Chen Zhun said: "No, no, I understand, and I hope we can cooperate well in the future, Boss Lin!"

"I'm not the boss, I'm also working for the boss, the real boss is this!" Lin Seshu said and pointed to the energetic Yue Hun beside him.

"Then we are allies on the same front?" Chen Zhun said humorously.

"It is!" Lin Seshu replied with the same wit.

Chen Zhun learned that during the acquisition process, the joint consortium of Yue Hun and Lin Seshu invested 8000 million pounds to acquire the Southampton club.The two hold 80.00% of the shares of the Southampton club, and naturally become the largest shareholder of the Southampton club.Among them, Yue Hun accounted for 45%, and Lin Seshu accounted for 35%.The other shareholders are small shareholders.So far, the Southampton Club has truly become the first club acquired overseas by Chinese capital.

This news also shocked the domestic football world and attracted the attention of all parties. Even the largest TV station and media in China sent reporters to interview and broadcast the press conference live.This news also excited hundreds of millions of fans in China, because he seemed to see the confidence and prospects of Chinese players studying abroad in the Premier League and continuing to expand the team.If a club with a strong Chinese flavor does not introduce some local Chinese players, it seems that there is no way to justify it.

The press conference officially started. Yang Sen first introduced the acquisition process, and then praised the new boss Yue Hun and Lin Seshu.After Yang Sen finished speaking, Yue Hun began his first speech at the Southampton Club.

"Hello, British media friends, I am very happy to acquire Southampton Club, which is a club with a long history and a strong fan base. I am very optimistic about the club's development prospects, and I will also contribute my strength to the club's honor You will think that the acquisition of the Southampton club is just my capital expansion, and you will also question whether a Chinese company can really manage well and how much capital strength it has to run a Premier League club. I can assure you here I will run the Southampton club well, not the capital expansion you mentioned. Also, another question you have is the current head coach David Winston. I hereby declare that the boss Coach David Winston is not going back, he is an excellent manager, he will stay here and make the Southampton team great!"
