Barilla thought for a moment and said, "Your suggestion is quite novel, but I don't really want to sell the shares of Parma. Because I am not short of money now."

Mateo smiled: "Of course I know you are not short of money. You are now worth hundreds of billions of dollars, so you will not sell your shares for money."

Barilla smiled and said, "You know it clearly."

Mateo said, "It is precisely because you are worth hundreds of billions of dollars that 5% or 10% of Parma's shares have no practical significance to you, and selling 5% to me is nothing."

Barilla raised his eyebrows and took a sip of coffee.

Mateo said, "But for me, 5% is very important. I want to own the shares of Parma, which has nothing to do with my father's shares."

Barilla glanced at Alessandro and laughed.

Alessandro also said quickly: "I never meant to kick you out of Parma. And these shares are Matteo's own shares, and have nothing to do with me."

Matteo said: "Uncle Barilla, you will always be a shareholder of our Parma and our closest partner. It has nothing to do with how many shares of Parma you have."

Barilla laughed: "Good Mateo, you are really good at speaking, you almost convinced me."

In fact, he also knew that the plan given by Matteo did not have any big problems on the economic level. Now Matteo's five-year endorsement is at least 25 million euros, and 5% of Parma's shares cannot even be sold for 25 million euros. In this way, he would even get a little advantage.

So he had agreed to the deal in principle in his heart.

As for the number of shares in Parma, he didn't care much. After all, there was not much difference between 10% and 5%. Anyway, what he said didn't count...

Of course, since the shares of Parma were his own, and the endorsement was to be signed to the company, they could not be directly exchanged.

Soon, the two parties signed a five-year endorsement contract.

And then, there was also a contract for equity transfer.

Although these two contracts were negotiated together, they were two independent events in terms of process.

The equity transfer was not announced immediately, and the two parties still had to miss this time point to avoid being used by those who were interested to make a fuss about these two things.

Mateo's 25 million euro endorsement contract will eventually become 5% of Parma's equity, which made him very satisfied.

The two parties agreed to complete the transaction in December next year.

And Barilla made a very good investment in Parma's equity. At the beginning, he only invested more than 300,000, and now he sold half of his equity and recovered 25 million euros.

This is almost his best investment in recent years.

And those who sold Parma's equity last year don't know how much they regret it now.

Of course, these 25 million euros are definitely at a premium, and Parma's current valuation is not even 500 million euros.

But as long as Parma continues to improve, the market value will definitely rise steadily!

After finalizing the endorsement contract, Mateo went to shoot an advertisement for Nike the next day.

However, he is still a relatively small figure in Nike, so he has no chance to see those big names. He just took some photos and videos in a studio in Parma.

Although he had taken some photos before, Mateo obviously still couldn't adapt to the rhythm of this shooting. After shooting for a whole morning, he was stiff all over, which was more tiring than playing a game.

At this time, he received a text message from Dava: "Big star, how was the photo shoot?"

Mateo replied with a crying emoji: "I'd rather play a game..."

Dava quickly replied with a raised eyebrow emoji: "Do you need my guidance? I'm a professional!"

Mateo had already planned this, so he quickly said: "Of course! This is life-saving now!"

Dava replied: "Just think of the photographer as a pig."

Mateo said: "Is it that simple?"

Dava said: "I imagined the photographer as a pig. You can think of him as your favorite or most hated animal."

Mateo suddenly realized: "So you like pigs?"

Dava replied after a while: "I don't like pigs, but the people I like are like pigs!"

Added a smiley face at the end.

Mateo was stunned. He didn't expect that this little girl also had someone she liked.

He wanted to ask what kind of person that was, but at this moment the photographer asked him to take a photo, so he had to give up.

And on the other side of the chat interface, Dava looked at the long-lostMateo, who replied, muttered for a long time: "Pig-like Mateo..."

After staying in the studio for most of the day, Mateo finally finished all the shooting.

He breathed a sigh of relief and picked up his phone to reply to Dave, but suddenly saw a message pop up on the phone interface.

"Authoritative confirmation, Liverpool central defender Van Dijk won the 2019 European Golden Ball Award!"

Tomorrow night is this year's Golden Ball Award ceremony, and it seems that the news has been leaked in advance.

But this is also a routine, after all, you still have to take the final makeup photos.

If this news is true, then Mateo, this little butterfly, has once again rewritten the history of European football.

Since he absorbed half of Messi's skills, Messi has been in a slump for a long time.

During that time, he was called Messi's pass and Messi's shot, and Barcelona's performance was also lagging for a long time.

However, after several years of hard work, he has practiced his passing and shooting skills back to the level of ordinary stars.

Barcelona also successfully won the Champions League after Neymar and Suarez joined, and Messi once again won the Ballon d'Or that year.

However, many people believe that Messi's Ballon d'Or that year was snatched from Neymar, because Neymar played a greater role than Messi in the Champions League.

But on the platform of Barcelona, ​​Neymar is unlikely to compete with Messi in the award, which may be one of the reasons why he left Barcelona to join Paris Saint-Germain.

Since then, neither player has won the Champions League.

Barcelona has also suffered a big score reversal in the Champions League in the past two years, which is really a shame.

And this year's Ballon d'Or seems to be awarded to Liverpool's defensive backbone who reversed Barcelona head-on. In Mateo's opinion, this is well deserved.

The news was finally confirmed at the awards ceremony the next day.

Dutch central defender Van Dijk won the 2019 European Golden Ball Award!

This is also another central defender who won the award after Cannavaro in 2006!
