Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 138 I Knew You Wouldn't Just Defend and Not Attack
After the training ended the next day, Chen Ran didn't let the players take a shower immediately, but stood in front of them.

"Guys, you must have heard about Crouch's transfer."

"Today I would like to officially inform you that Crouch has passed the Chelsea medical examination and officially transferred to Chelsea with a transfer fee of 2000 million euros."

"Oh"

Hearing exclamations from the opposite side, Chen Ran pretended he hadn't heard anything.

"I know, when you hear this news, you may think: He is just a substitute striker of the team, why can he reach a worth of 2000 million euros, and why can he be paid so much more than my main player's salary."

"Is that so? Guys."

Having said that, Chen Ran stopped and looked around at the team members.

The scene was silent, no one dared to speak.

"Okay, thinking about it is thinking about it. This is human nature, and there is nothing unspeakable. A player pursues nothing more than two things: honor and money."

"If it were me, I would think the same way."

"Boss, we think so, aren't you angry?"

At this time, a voice suddenly appeared.

Chen Ran followed the voice and saw that it was Ronaldo.

"Why should I be angry? Honor and money, these two things are not only what you want, but I also want."

"If it wasn't for my love of football, why would I spend so much money on Crystal Palace? What kind of life would I not enjoy with this money?"

"Isn't it good to stay with beautiful women every day? What are you doing here to hang out with you brats, all of you are not as handsome as me."

"Hahaha"

"Boss, you are too narcissistic."

There was a burst of laughter from the opposite side, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.

"So, I'm not worried that you want honor and money, what I worry about is that you don't know how to get honor and money better."

"Now, as long as you are not blind, you should be able to see that our Crystal Palace is very hopeful to win the Premier League championship this season."

"I am here to make a solemn promise to everyone that as long as Crystal Palace can win the Premier League title this season, then after the end of the season, everyone will get a new contract."

"Based on each person's contribution to the team, there will be different salary increases. First let me tell you that your salary will at least be doubled, and there is no cap."

"Long live the boss!"

"Boss I love you!"

"Boss, I want to give birth to you!"

"Hahaha!"

Before Chen Ran finished speaking, the scene exploded in an instant.

A group of team members rushed forward and lifted Chen Ran high, and threw them into the air again and again.

"Fxxxk! Put me down!"

While roaring, Chen Ran was worried that these bastards would not be able to catch him.

The three old guys, Southgate, Guardiola and Simeone, who were standing by to watch the excitement, glanced at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

The crisis in front of him was resolved silently by Chen Ran.

Boss, never disappoints.

Office of the Chairman of the Crystal Palace Club.

When the little fat man and Stephen came over, Chen Ran was busy tidying up his broken appearance.

"Haha, Chen, I heard that you are very popular with the players."

Seeing Chen Ran's appearance, the little fat man gloated and smiled.

"roll!"

No extra nonsense, just a middle finger.

"Chen, although the cake is given out, the club's expenditure will increase significantly next season."

If you are not in charge of the house, you don't know how expensive it is. As the butler of the Crystal Palace, Stephen has an account of the club's income and expenditure.

"It's okay. The expenditure has increased, and the income has also increased. We will participate in the European Champions Cup next season, and the income is still considerable. Coupled with various new sponsorships, we will not suffer."

Chen Ran comforted Stephen while arranging his clothes.

"That's right. Stephen, now the enemy has come to the door. If the players' salaries are not raised, I don't know how many people will leave this summer."

The little fat man is in charge of the transfer affairs of the Crystal Palace, and he has a deep understanding of the intrigues and swords and swords in it.

"I know. I just feel too much pressure and complain. Chen, don't forget that our new stadium will be settled this year. At that time, there will be a large loan to be repaid, and I will have a headache just thinking about it." .”

Stephen rubbed his temples, Chen Ran is too much of a tosser.If he, the big butler, wanted to keep up with Chen Ran's footsteps and not fall behind, he really dared not relax for a moment.

"It's okay, Stephen, don't put too much pressure on yourself, I will bear it when the sky falls."

Chen Ran patted Stephen on the shoulder. He knew that his steps were too big, and the people around him were very hard.

If it wasn't for the help of these two friends, Eggy would have been torn apart.

The next day, when the Crystal Palace Club held a welcome ceremony for Jan Kohler and Van der Sar, the reporters who came to participate surrounded Chen Ran and threw the two protagonists Jan Kohler and Van der Sar away. in the back of the head.

"Edwin, is our boss so popular?"

Jan Kohler, who had just arrived, was also surprised by this scene, and asked Van der Sar beside him curiously.

"Jan, when you first came to England, you didn't know many things. Our boss is a famous figure in England. It's easy to get on the front page of the media. After you stay here for a while, you won't be surprised."

"Is it so exaggerated?"

Jan Kohler still touched his big bald head in disbelief.

"It's such an exaggeration!"

On the other side, Chen Ran was being bombarded by reporters.

"Mr. Chen, is it true that Crouch, a player from Crystal Palace, transferred to Chelsea for a transfer fee of 2000 million euros?"

"You'd better ask the Chelsea club about this matter. I think it's more appropriate for them to answer."

"Is that true?"

"I still say the same thing: if it happens, it's true; if it doesn't happen, it's false."

Reporter anger +1, resentment +1
"Mr. Chen, may I ask if you introduced Mr. Jan Kohler to fill the vacancy left by Crouch?"

Another reporter came up with a roundabout way to ask Crouch about his transfer.

"Haha, your imagination is very rich."

"Young is a very good center forward. His arrival is not to fill someone's vacancy, but he can bring improvement to Crystal Palace's strength. That's why we brought him in."

Reporter anger +1, resentment +1
"Mr. Chen, may I ask if you think Crouch is worthy of the transfer fee of 2000 million euros?"

"You should ask Chelsea. If someone is willing to pay that much money, it means they think it's worth it."

Reporter anger +1, resentment +1
"Okay, friends from the press. Today is the welcome ceremony for Jan Kohler and Edwin van der Sar. Shouldn't you be doing something serious?"

Reporter anger +1, resentment +1
Damn, what I'm doing is serious business!

Who cares about two old guys with more than 300 million euros?
Manchester, Ferguson office.

"Alex, Chelsea really bought Crouch for 2000 million euros, really rich."

David Gill came to report the latest transfer news to Ferguson again.

"Isn't this exactly what they wanted?"

"what?"

"Make everyone think Chelsea have money."

"Yes, indeed, they achieved the desired effect."

David Gill nodded. As soon as Ferguson reminded him, he immediately reacted.

Even he has the impression that "Chelsea is really rich", let alone those players?

Thinking of this, David Gill was shocked, this strategy is really clever.

This time, Chelsea's own advantages were fully displayed in front of everyone.

This is tantamount to shouting to outstanding players all over the world: Do you want to make a lot of money?Just come to Chelsea!
"Alex, Chelsea spent 2000 million euros in a big advertisement, and got a Crouch by the way."

Even as a competitor, David Gill had to cheer for his opponent.

"That's right, there is a powerful person in Chelsea who is manipulating the whole plan. I just don't know if this person is Peter Kenyon or Mourinho."

Ferguson took a sip of his coffee and thought of his old colleague.

Chelsea's attack is indiscriminate, and the high salary is not only tempting to the players of Crystal Palace, Manchester United is also inevitable.

"David, a key player in our team, whose contract is about to expire, must hurry up to renew his contract."

"Although Chelsea are mainly targeting Crystal Palace players this time, we have to prevent them from playing tricks on us Manchester United."

"Not many players from Crystal Palace have left, but someone from Manchester United has been seduced away. That would be a big joke."

"Understood. Alex, I'll get back to this matter."

David Gill also realized the seriousness of the matter, and immediately got up and left.

As Chelsea officially announced Crouch's transfer news, Chelsea immediately became the most popular team in the entire winter transfer period in England.

Some people boast, some people lose, some people envy, some people are jealous.

Regardless of whether it is a positive comment or a negative comment, Chelsea is definitely the most searched list in English football.

Countless reporters wanted to interview Chen Ran, one of the parties involved in the transfer, but he turned them away.

Chelsea's heat is already high enough, and he doesn't want to increase the heat on his opponent.

With Tony's injury and Crouch's departure, the newly joined Jan Kohler immediately became the only center forward for Crystal Palace.

So in the past few days, Chen Ran led the coaching staff to help Jan Kohler explain tactics during training, hoping that he can quickly integrate into the team.

Thousands of miles away in China, Crouch's transfer has also aroused heated discussions among domestic Crystal Palace fans.

"Good guy, a backup striker Crouch sold for 2000 million euros, which is almost [-] million in domestic currency. Chen Ran made a lot of money this time."

"That's right. When Crystal Palace bought Crouch, it seemed that they only spent more than 100 million euros. But it took more than a year, and the increase was more than ten times. This return on investment is too awesome!"

"This transfer can't just be based on money. After all, it is sold to a championship opponent, and it will definitely be slaughtered. It is estimated that it will not be sold for that much money under normal circumstances."

"Even if it is sold to a championship opponent, it is worth it. After all, Crouch is just a backup striker, and the lack of him will have little impact on the overall strength of Crystal Palace."

"I agree. At such a high price, I would sell it if it were me."

"Didn't you read today's news? Crystal Palace has introduced two new players, one of which is the 202cm high center forward Jan Kohler. This is obviously introduced by Chen Ran to replace Crouch. He has already prepared for it. .”

"You mean the Czech tall guy? He is indeed a good center. I have watched him play in the Czech national team and Dortmund. Except for being a bit slow, his strength is still very good. It is more than enough to be a substitute."

"I read in the news that the transfer fees of Jan Kohler and Van der Sar are 350 million euros and 300 million euros."

"Good guy, the two together are less than half of Crouch's. Chen Ran has made money and strengthened the strength of Crystal Palace, killing two birds with one stone."

"Hey, Chen Ran's trick is really tricky."

After a five-day break, Crystal Palace's first FA Cup game of the season is about to start again. They will go away to challenge the English Championship team Sunderland.

For this competition, which is slightly stronger than the League Cup, but far inferior to the Premier League, Chen Ran intends to use it to train newcomers and substitute players just like the League Cup.

After all, he now has a little disdain for the FA Cup, where the bonus for winning a single game is only 100 million euros.

Facing the intensive schedule, the limited physical fitness of Crystal Palace players is still more cost-effective to use in the Premier League and UEFA Cup.

For this reason, Chen Ran put Jan Kohler and Van der Sar who had just joined the team into the starting lineup of Crystal Palace.

Sunderland, which competed with Crystal Palace for promotion places in the Championship last year, is now far from being comparable to Crystal Palace.

Even though Chen Ran sent a large number of substitutes and young players, Crystal Palace finally defeated their opponents in the away game with a score of 2:1 and advanced to the fourth round of the FA Cup.

And Jan Kohler, who just joined the team, scored a header to break the deadlock in the first game representing Crystal Palace.

Another goal was when Alves took a free kick and blasted a wonderful world wave.

While Crystal Palace advanced to the next round of the FA Cup, it also brought Chen Ran a winning bonus of 100 million euros.

London, Crystal Palace Club, Chairman's Office.

"Chen, why did you call me here? Are you going to make a move again?"

With the familiar voice, Little Fatty Louis broke in.

"You are clever. It just so happens that the transfers of Jan Kohler, Van der Sar and Crouch have come to an end, and you have time now. I will give you a task."

"Hey, I knew you wouldn't just defend and not attack. Tell me, who do you fancy this time?"
