Of course, in addition to attending the graduation ceremony of Liu Xiaoyan and others in Turin, Italy, Luo Lie also made an appointment with Juventus Club President Andrea Agnelli to discuss the possibility of bringing that man back to Old Trafford three years in advance. He was accompanied by his secretary Lina, Jason Wilcox, head of Manchester United's transfer negotiation department, and staff from Manchester United's transfer negotiation department.

After a long flight, the plane slowly landed at Turin International Airport in Italy. A fleet consisting of two Chevrolet Corvette ZR1s, two Silverado Phantoms, and four Camaros had been waiting there. The drivers respectfully opened the doors for Luo Lie and others; Luo Lie and others got into the car, and the fleet quickly drove to the Juventus Club headquarters building at 32 Ferraris Street in Turin.

Meanwhile, in the office of Andrea Agnelli, the chairman of Juventus, Andrea Agnelli was also making final preparations for the meeting. He sat at his desk, holding the purchase fax sent by Manchester United a few days ago, as well as the game data and commercial value report of the relevant players, and fell into deep thought. To be honest, he couldn't believe that Manchester United's first offer was equal to Juventus's purchase price last summer, which was full of sincerity.

When the motorcade of Rowley and others arrived at the headquarters of Juventus, Andrea Agnelli and Pavel Nedved, the vice chairman and also a famous player of Juventus, came to the door to greet them in person. Rowley and Andrea Agnelli, two heavyweights in today's European football, shook hands with each other, and their eyes were full of importance for this meeting. They walked into the conference room together. The conference room was decorated simply and solemnly. A bunch of bright flowers were placed in the center of the huge conference table, symbolizing the friendship and cooperation between the two sides.

The two parties sat down on both sides of the conference table. Manchester United chairman Rowe took a sip of the coffee in front of him. The rich aroma spread in his mouth, but failed to completely dispel his inner tension. He slowly put down the coffee cup and spoke first to break the silence: "President Agnelli, I am very happy to see you again. I came here today with the expectations of all Manchester United fans. I believe you also know that Cristiano Ronaldo has created countless glories in Manchester United. He is a legend of Old Trafford and a shining star in the history of Manchester United. In those years, he was like a flash of lightning on the Manchester United field, with speed and passion coexisting, and a perfect combination of technology and strength. Every time he appeared on the field, the whole stadium boiled, and the cheers of the fans seemed to break through the clouds. Every goal and every assist of his have become an indelible memory in the history of Manchester United. Now, we hope to bring him back to Old Trafford, let him play for Manchester United again, and continue to write the legendary chapter belonging to him and Manchester United."

Andrea Agnelli, chairman of Juventus, frowned slightly, leaned back in his chair, crossed his hands on his chest, and revealed a hint of contemplation in his eyes. He was silent for a moment, then responded: "President Rowley, I understand your feelings. Cristiano Ronaldo is indeed a very good player, there is no doubt about that. This season, his performance is obvious to all. Whether in the league or in the European arena, he has demonstrated the strength and style of a world-class star. His existence is like a stabilizing force for Juventus. He is an indispensable player for Juventus. He has brought great value to Juventus both in terms of competition and business. We have no option to sell him, because once he leaves, it will bring great losses to Juventus. In terms of competition, his goal-scoring ability, leadership ability and decisiveness at critical moments are all what Juventus relies on. In terms of business, his influence is even greater. His jersey sales, advertising effect and appeal to fans have all brought Juventus rich profits." Rowley put down the coffee cup, leaned forward slightly, his eyes full of sincerity. He knew that it was not easy to convince Agnelli, but he would not give up easily. "President Agnelli, I understand the importance of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus. His arrival has indeed brought countless glory and commercial value to Juventus. I understand your concerns. After all, he is such an outstanding player. But Manchester United's desire for Cristiano Ronaldo is sincere, and I came here today with sincerity. Manchester United fans miss him like a tide. They are eager to see him wearing Manchester United's jersey again, running, shooting and celebrating on the Old Trafford field. He is one of the soul figures of Manchester United. His return will inject new vitality andPassion. "

Andrea Agnelli raised his head slightly, showing a hint of interest, but did not speak, just motioning Rowe to continue. He wanted to hear what other reasons Rowe had to impress him.

Rowe struck while the iron was hot, and continued: "Manchester United is willing to pay a high transfer fee for Cristiano Ronaldo to make up for Juventus's losses. We know his value and are willing to pay the price to get him. At the same time, I also hope that our two clubs will have more extensive cooperation in the future. In the business field, we can jointly carry out a series of activities to expand the brand influence of both parties. In terms of competition, we can carry out player exchanges, friendly matches and other activities to promote the development of both teams. I believe that through this cooperation, we can achieve a win-win situation. "

Andrea Agnelli was slightly moved, but still a little hesitant. He knew the value of Ronaldo, but he couldn't make a decision easily. "President Rowe, this is not a simple decision. Cristiano Ronaldo's role in Juventus is not only on the court, he also has a great impact on the team's morale and cohesion. He is the leader of the team, and his presence can inspire other players to train and play harder. His professionalism and desire for victory also infect every Juventus player. If he leaves, the morale and cohesion of the team may be affected to a certain extent. "

Rolie smiled and said: "President Agnelli, I believe that Juventus has a strong lineup and an excellent coaching team. Even if Cristiano Ronaldo leaves, you can continue to be competitive. Juventus is a team with a long history and glorious tradition, with many excellent players and coaches. Your strength and heritage are unquestionable. Moreover, we can make this transfer a win-win cooperation. Manchester United got Cristiano Ronaldo, and Juventus got the transfer fee and future cooperation opportunities. We can contribute to the development of football together. "

Andrea Agnelli fell into deep thought, and there was silence in the conference room. The sun shone on the conference table, as if time had stopped at this moment. After a while, he slowly said: "President Rolie, your words touched me. But I still need time to consider and evaluate this decision. This is a major decision that concerns the future development of Juventus. I need to have an in-depth discussion with my team and weigh the pros and cons before I can make a final decision. ”

Rolie said with understanding: "President Agnelli, I understand. This is a major decision that requires careful consideration. But I hope you can give me an answer as soon as possible, because Manchester United fans are anxiously waiting. They are eager to see Cristiano Ronaldo return to Manchester United again and bring them more exciting games and victories. I believe that his return will bring new glory to Manchester United. ”

Andrea Agnelli nodded and said: "Okay, Chairman Rolie. I will make a decision as soon as possible. But before that, we need further communication and consultation. We need to ensure that this transfer is beneficial to both parties and in line with the laws of football development. ”

Rolie stood up and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Andrea Agnelli. "President Agnelli, thank you for taking the time to have this talk with me. I look forward to us reaching a result that satisfies both parties. ”

Andrea Agnelli also stood up and shook hands with Rowe. "President Rowe, I hope so too. Let us work together for the future of football."

As the two shook hands, the tense atmosphere in the conference room disappeared. In fact, this visit was a test for Rowe, and a very elementary test. He knew very well in his heart that the transfer negotiations for a top star of Cristiano Ronaldo's level would not be completed overnight without using the power of the system. There are still many challenges and uncertainties waiting for him in the future.

Afterwards, Andrea Agnelli took Rowe and the Manchester United Club to visit the headquarters building of Juventus Club. On the wall The hall was filled with photos of Juventus stars from all generations, showing the club's glorious past. Andrea Agnelli proudly introduced the stories behind each photo to Luo Lie, telling the legendary history and great achievements of Juventus.

They walked through offices, where the staff were busy and working in an orderly manner. Agnelli introduced the management system and operating model of Juventus Club, sharing his experience and insights in club management. Luo Lie listened carefully and nodded from time to time to express his appreciation.

Then, they came to Juventus's Hall of Fame. There are countless trophies and medals on display here, witnessing Juventus' brilliant achievements in various competitions. Andrea Agnelli pointed to those trophies and told about the team's hard work and struggle on the field, as well as the hardships and joy behind each championship. Seeing the many glories of Juventus, Luo Lie deeply felt the profound heritage and strong strength of this club. He exchanged views and ideas on the development of football clubs with Andrea Agnelli, and shared Manchester United's successful experience and challenges.

After the visit, Luo Lie expressed his heartfelt thanks to Andrea Agnelli and invited him to visit Manchester when he was around.
