Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 147 The Miracle of the Crystal Palace

When Chen Ran bought Ronaldo from Sporting Lisbon, in order to attract Mendes, he once spent 100 million euros to invest in Mendes' brokerage company.

Now, in order to prevent Mendes from disrupting Ronaldo's contract renewal negotiations, Chen Ran repeats his old tricks and plans to spend another 200 million euros to increase his stake in Mendes' brokerage company.

The bait has already been cast, as for whether the fish can be caught, we have to wait and see.

The Premier League is not over yet, Chen Ran's most important task now is to make sure to win the championship.

On April 4, in the No.2 round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace played against Middlesbrough at home. With Tony's header, Crystal Palace beat Middlesbrough 30-1.

While scoring three points, it also brought Chen Ran a winning bonus of 200 million euros.

On April 4th, the UEFA Cup semi-finals battle started, and it was still a two-round home and away game system. This time, Crystal Palace met the Eredivisie team Alkmaar.

In the first round, Crystal Palace went away to challenge Alkmaar. With Ronaldo's goal, Crystal Palace beat their opponent 1:0.

Although the goal was small, it was a valuable away goal, which also brought Chen Ran a winning bonus of 250 million euros.

On April 4th, just one day later, Crystal Palace flew directly from the Netherlands to Liverpool to play the No.10 second round of the Premier League, an away game against Everton.

Although Rooney was sold to Manchester United at a high price at the beginning of the season, under the leadership of Moyes, Everton has exploded this season, and now ranks fifth in the Premier League standings, even putting the traditional giants and city rivals Liverpool under pressure. .

Due to the delay of the schedule and the fact that Moyes played an iron barrel at home, Crystal Palace failed to break through Everton's goal in the end, and could only leave Liverpool with a 0:0 draw.

On April 4, Crystal Palace ushered in the second round of the UEFA Cup semi-finals at home.

This time, Crystal Palace once again defeated Alkmaar 1-0 with Modric's goal.

Eliminating the opponent with a total score of 2:0 in the two rounds and advancing to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup also brought Chen Ran another winning bonus of 250 million euros.

On April 4, still only one day apart, Crystal Palace ushered in the No. 17 Premier League round.

Fortunately, Crystal Palace played at home in these two games, which saved the hardship of traveling and traveling, which is also a blessing in misfortune.

Crystal Palace beat Norwich 3-1 at home thanks to goals from Jan Koller, Ronaldo and Thiago Silva.

While scoring three points, it also brought Chen Ran a winning bonus of 200 million euros.

On April 4, in the No.21 round of the Premier League, Crystal Palace challenged Blackburn away.

With Mascherano's goal, Crystal Palace beat Blackburn 1-0.

After the game, the Crystal Palace players did not leave the field, even the Blackburn fans who were watching the game did not leave.

Because at the same time, in another powerful conversation this round, Chelsea's game against Arsenal at Stamford Bridge is not over yet.

The score between the two sides is still 0:0. As long as Chelsea can't beat Arsenal in this game, then Crystal Palace will win this season's Premier League title four rounds ahead of schedule.

Everyone is waiting for the news of this match.

Chen Ran was also surrounded by his assistants and team members.

At this moment, looking at the familiar faces around him, Chen Ran suddenly felt a little unreal.

how?Are you about to win the Premier League title?
Is this moment coming a little too soon?
Just as he was thinking wildly, a deafening cheer suddenly came from his ears.

"Boss, we are champions! We are champions!"

Before he could react, Chen Ran felt his feet leave the ground, and then saw the starry sky again.

"Fuck!"

These bastards of Temiao threw themselves up again.

I don't know who took the lead first. Now as long as Crystal Palace wins the championship, the first reaction is to throw Chen Ran into the sky.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for winning the Premier League championship, and a bonus of 2000 million euros for the championship."

"Given that the Crystal Palace club has established a firm foothold in the Premier League, it has officially entered the threshold of a wealthy club."

"Starting from next season, the winning bonus for each game will change from a fixed amount to a richer variety of random rewards, no longer limited to money. Stay tuned!"

Fuck, what does the system mean, no more money?

Come on, I actually like money.

I am not too monotonous, boring, and static.

System, you can kill me with money.

Before Chen Ran savored the major changes in the system, he was carried to the center of the arena by his team members.

The FA finally did a personnel matter and prepared the celebration ceremony in advance.

After receiving the championship medal, receiving the championship trophy, taking group photos, carnival celebration, Chen Ran doesn't remember the rest.

These bastards got him drunk again.

At noon the next day, when Chen Ran woke up from his sleep, his first reaction was to call up yesterday's system messages.

Fortunately, it's just not limited to money, that is to say, there is still money.

Now Chen Ran felt reassured. Now that his stall is so big, there are places where money is used everywhere.

If his most stable source of income was suddenly cut off, Chen Ran would have to vomit blood.

Thousands of miles away in China, Crystal Palace won the Premier League championship this season, which also made domestic fans rejoice.

This feeling of watching the team I like, from being penniless, to the championship podium step by step, making progress and growing together, is very substituting.

This is also an important reason why the domestic Crystal Palace fan base has grown rapidly from scratch.

"Hahaha, cool, if you don't get drunk today, you won't go home."

"This can be regarded as a grassroots counterattack in football."

"Don't forget, Crystal Palace is the newly promoted Premier League this year. This is another myth of Kaiserslautern."

"I'll go. If it wasn't mentioned upstairs, I really forgot that Crystal Palace is actually just a newly promoted Premier League."

"Yeah, I forgot about this too. Who would have thought that a newly promoted horse could win the championship with an undefeated record?"

"That's right. Even Kaiserslautern did not win the championship unbeaten. From this point of view, Crystal Palace is more like a myth than Kaiserslautern."

"I want to go to the home court of Crystal Palace now and watch a Crystal Palace game in person."

"Huh? That's a good idea. Anyone else interested? We can form a group together. It happens that we can play around, so it's time to travel to England."

"Well, I'm interested. But let's forget about the Premier League. Crystal Palace has already won the championship. According to Chen Ran's chicken thief style, he probably won't try his best for the rest of the game. I would like to see them play in the UEFA Cup Contest."

"What you said above makes sense. That guy Chen Ran can definitely lie down and never stand up. He must use the rest of the Premier League to train new players."

"I'm going to watch the UEFA Cup final, are you together?"

"I'll go, are you so sure that Crystal Palace can enter the final?"

"That must be no problem. I am still sure that Crystal Palace can win the championship. Look at the other teams in the UEFA Cup semi-finals. Is there any team that can wrestle with Crystal Palace?"

"Really, that counts as me."

"Come along!"

"Together +1"

"The people upstairs are rich."

In England, the news that Crystal Palace won the championship four rounds ahead of schedule was also overwhelming.

Although many reporters were reluctant, Chen Ran was able to force them to sing praises with victories.

"Crystal Palace won the Premier League title four rounds ahead of schedule, repeating the miracle of Nottingham Forest again!"

"Starting today, new members have appeared in the list of Premier League champions."

"Crystal Palace, from an unknown Championship team, stood on the highest podium of the Premier League in one fell swoop."

"That Chinese man, as a rookie coach, brought Crystal Palace to the height of the Premier League championship. This cannot but be said to be a miracle."

"After the title of genius coach, that Huaguo now has the new title of champion coach."

"According to the current development momentum of Crystal Palace, a new giant club is on the rise."

"Considering the age of that Chinese man, he will become a world-class coach in the future."

"Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, and now Crystal Palace, the Premier League is about to enter an era of hegemony."

Seeing Chen Ran flipping through the newspapers he brought with relish, the little fat man also felt amused.

"How is it? Chen, did you enjoy watching today?"

"Ahem, what's the fun? These guys just found out with a rare conscience and told the truth."

"Then I'll tell you another piece of good news to make you happy."

"Oh, what more good news?"

Hearing what Louis said, Chen Ran finally turned his gaze away from the newspaper in his hand.

"Arsenal is probably as you judged. It has been spread in the agent circle recently. It is said that during this summer transfer period, there will be a large number of Arsenal's main players seeking transfers."

"Okay! The connection with Vieira is still there?"

"No. Recently, Vieira's side has obviously taken the initiative compared to before. It seems that the rumors that are circulating in the circle are probably true."

These news are of course true, Chen Ran murmured inwardly.

Others don't know, but he is too clear.

Since he asked Stephen to cut off the big benefactor of Emirates Airlines, he knew that Arsenal would have this day sooner or later, so he asked Luis to contact Vieira.

In the previous life, with the heavy investment of Emirates Airlines, Arsenal would continue to sell the captain to raise money.

Now that Emirates Airlines has been dragged to Crystal Palace by Chen Ran, Arsenal Club's current financial difficulties must be much more serious than in previous lives.

I have worked so hard to plan for so long, and it is time to harvest.

"Luis, the Premier League is coming to an end, pay close attention to Vieira's every move."

"The private detectives you used before worked well, and now they can be used again."

"Let them keep an eye on Vieira, this is a dish on our plate, and it cannot be taken away secretly."

"Okay, Chen, besides Vieira, do you need to focus on other targets?"

"The main thing is to focus on our own players, especially the main players. This season we won the Premier League championship, and we are so big that we must have attracted the attention of many people."

"Louis, this summer is a severe test for Crystal Palace. Our first task is to prevent these players from Crystal Palace from being poached by others. Understand?"

"Understood, Chen, are there any players who need to focus on?"

"Yes, one is Ronaldo and the other is Cesc Fabregas."

"Ronaldo, I understand. As for Cesc Fabregas, are you still worried that Barcelona will activate the buy-back clause?"

"That's right. Forget it, Fabregas doesn't have to watch. If Barcelona really wants to activate the buyback clause, it's useless for us to watch. I'll talk to Cesc in person later."

After sending the little fat man away, Chen Ran called Stephen over again.

"Stephen, from now on you have to prepare to start contract renewal negotiations with the players."

"Chen, are you really going to at least double their salaries as you announced earlier?"

Stephen asked with a bit of pain.

This is not a matter of one or two people, this is almost the salary of the entire team must be doubled.

The salary expenditure for next season must be scary.

"Since I made a promise, I must keep it, otherwise who will believe me in the future."

Chen Ran also knows that his decision will greatly increase the Crystal Palace club's expenditure next season, and the pressure on Stephen will also increase.

So he walked up to Stephen, patted him on the shoulder and comforted:
"Stephen, think about it. If you don't raise your salary, you won't be able to keep people. Now our Crystal Palace is an attractive piece of fat in the eyes of those wealthy clubs."

"I don't know how many wolves are staring at us in the dark. As long as they find our weakness, they will jump up and bite without hesitation."

"Now we take the initiative to raise the salaries of the players, which not only wins the hearts of the players, but also increases their ability to resist the temptation of the outside world. Kill two birds with one stone, why not do it?"

"I know, Chen, I know that your decision is right. It's just that the money is spent like running water. The amount is too large, and I'm terrified when I see it."

"Haha, Stephen, you have to get used to it quickly."

Chen Ran patted Stephen with a smile.

"You are the CEO of our Crystal Palace club and the helm of the most successful club in the world in the future. What is this little money? Maybe it will cost 2 million euros to buy a player in the future."

"Spend 2 million euros to buy a player? Is this a disease of the brain?"

Looking at Stephen in complete disbelief, Chen Ran couldn't help shaking his head.

Reality is sometimes more exaggerated and crazy than fiction.

After dismissing his Second General Hengha, Chen Ran decided to go to Fabregas to talk to him and see what he thinks if he has time today.

However, when Chen Ran came to Cesc Fabregas' residence, he encountered another wave of guests.
