It’s New Year’s Eve again!

During the Chinese New Year this year, Meng Lang's house was obviously a lot more lively. In previous years, they would just have a meal and watch TV together as a family, so this year was over.

This year is different!

There was Taomi, Meng Tao, and father-in-law and mother-in-law in the family. The usually deserted villa suddenly became lively.

The New Year’s Eve dinner is quite sumptuous!

Interestingly enough, the chef in charge of this New Year's Eve dinner turned out to be Meng Lang's father-in-law. Mother-in-law and mother are in charge of cooking, and Tao's father basically prepares the main dishes independently.

My dad used to be a chef!

As soon as Tao Mi finished speaking, Tao's father quickly said humbly: Apprentice, I was young at that time. I caught up with the layoff wave and lost my job in a state-owned enterprise. I couldn't find a job, so I went to help people in a restaurant and worked there for about a year or two.

That's pretty awesome.

Lao Meng praised: If you want to become famous in the chef industry, it will take at least ten or twenty years. If you have learned this in one or two years, you are already very talented.

Well said!

Father Tao likes to hear people compliment him on his cooking skills. As soon as he heard this, he quickly pulled Lao Meng to toast him.

The two old men were drinking, while the mother-in-law and Mother Meng were taking care of the children. Meng Lang, who had a rare moment of leisure, chatted with Tao Mi about something.

After the New Year, I have to go on a business trip!

Where to go?

Tao Mi picked up the green vegetables with her chopsticks and asked curiously: You're celebrating the Chinese New Year. You're not at home and you're on a business trip. What happened?

There is indeed something going on.

Meng Lang sighed and said, FOX wants to make peace with us to ease the recent pressure from public opinion. They plan to jointly develop a new project with us, and I have to attend the signing ceremony.

Fox?

When Lao Meng, who was having a drink together, heard this, he couldn't help but ask: Didn't we break up with them? How come we reconciled again?

Just show off!

Meng Lang didn't want to talk in depth, so he pointed to the north and said, Someone helped us negotiate, and the compensation has been paid. This cooperation can be regarded as a step down for FOX.

I see!

Lao Meng asked again: Then you will be safe when you go to North America? I mean, there is no such thing as an assassination, right?

A harmonious society, you think too much.

Meng Lang smiled and said, They are more concerned about my safety than us. Once something goes wrong, it will turn into a diplomatic accident.

That's good!

By the way, I also have something to tell you.

Lao Meng hesitated for a moment, and finally said: We at Bolton have a relatively rich fan. He wants to invest in our club and provide a very considerable transfer fee. What do you think?

How much can he pay?

Fifty million euros per season!

hiss!

Meng Lang took a deep breath and almost broke his chopsticks.

So fierce?

When will a third-tier club like Bolton have such macho fans? With 50 million euros a season, does his family have a mine?

you are right!

Lao Meng suppressed a smile and said: His family really has a mine! And it is the most valuable oil mine! Doesn't our company have a member from the Middle East? That Baibu star guy is him!

It turns out they are from Baibu Star...

When Meng Lang heard this name, he immediately felt that 50 million euros was not too much. After all, with this guy's net worth, it's no problem to play football.

However, he has a problem.

The Baibuxing people are different from those in the Abu Dhabi Consortium. He is relatively low-key and reserved. He is seldom exposed, and his name is not even visible on the wealth list.

Why did you fall in love with football?

And, are you still a Bolton fan?

It sounds weird!

He told me that he didn't watch football games before. Thanks to his son, he often watched Bolton games. Driven by his son, he became a Bolton fan.

Lao Meng said with emotion: It stands to reason that it would be no problem to acquire a Premier League club with his financial resources. But he doesn't want to be famous and believes in not revealing his wealth, so...

He wants to invest in Bolton and become a shareholder. This way he can support his favorite team without exposing himself.

sure!

Everyone has thought so carefully, what else does Meng Lang have to say. Anyway, it's a good thing for someone else to inject capital. Having one more shareholder can help spread some of the transfer pressure.

Moreover, people don’t take big shots either.

Baibuxing people like to keep a low profile, and the major shareholder must still be PD Group. Give him a small share and use the transfer fee for nothing every season. This business will be profitable no matter how you calculate it.

Actually speaking...

Meng Lang feels very sorry for the Bolton fans.

After the original acquisition was completed, he promised the fans that he would invest heavily in the transfer market to make Bolton great again.

As a result, everyone has seen it.

Meng Lang was busy repairing the garden, and the transfer fee Bolton received was not much at all. If Nagelsmann hadn't been hired as coach and Old Mumbai had acquired a few reliable centre-backs, there would have been no chance of returning to the Premier League.

Although the fans don't blame him.

Everyone knows that Bolton's nominal boss doesn't watch football games at all, all he thinks about is business and making money.

Under such circumstances, Bolton's results are getting better year by year, returning to the Premier League after many years, and even reaching the Champions League. As a fan, you are already very satisfied. How can you blame the boss for being stingy?

After introducing the White Cloth Stars this time and getting the oil money, Bolton's rise should not be a big problem.

Try to win the Champions League next season?

Football is quite real. Whether you have won the Champions League or not can be used as a criterion for judging whether you are a rich or not. It can be said that once Bolton wins the Champions League, based on the current foundation, it will definitely be a rich club and its reputation will increase exponentially.

If you can't get it, it will always be a strong team.

Even Premier League commentators have ridiculed that Bolton are now only one St. Bradford Trophy away from the giants.

Build a wealthy club from scratch. In football novels, these are quite passionate scenes, but Meng Lang, as the person involved, didn't feel anything at all.

He just keeps throwing money away!

The Republic of China has issued a regulation that 100% of the money PD earns in the Republic of Korea cannot be transferred back to China. So in order to spend the money, PD invested in Bolton to try to improve its reputation.

Unexpectedly, this move accidentally made him the upstart in football and a quasi-rich club!

This is quite outrageous!

As the team chairman, although Lao Meng has been staying in China during this period, he is very familiar with the current situation of the team.

In his words, it is certain that Bolton will become a giant. Meng Lang's original investment, looking at it now, did not result in much loss.

Even, make a little profit!

After all, Bolton have not made any particularly large expenditures in recent years, except for building a new stadium and a new training base. All in all, Meng Lang spent a total of about 700 million euros.

If Bolton is sold to other rich owners now, it will be easily sold for 7 to 8 billion euros.
