I Want to Be the King of Football

The Sun director Dominic Mohan had just finished a phone call and sat in his office, lost in thought.

The phone call brought him some great news.

He has been in the media industry for many years and has a keen sense of smell. If this news is true, it is bound to be a heavy front page headline, and the sales of The Sun will explode again.

But if the news comes out now, Mohan really has no idea in his heart. After all, there is no real evidence.

Just like the fact that Beckham's transfer to Real Madrid was actually received by The Sun early on, but it kept pressing until it took a photo of the meeting between Manchester United CEO Peter Kenyon and Real Madrid officials. It was only when the transfer was reported in one fell swoop that it caused an uproar throughout Europe and even the world.

The Sun has thus further established its title as the king of paparazzi.

I believe this time is the same, and it may even be even worse than Beckham's transfer back then.

Thinking of this, Mo Han leaned over and pressed the internal phone on the desk.

Luke, come to me.

Before long, a shrewd young reporter knocked on the door of Dominic Mohan's office.

He is Mohan's most elite reporter.

Boss, do you have anything to do with me? Luke asked with a smile, coming across from Mohan.

Mohan didn't get up either, and gestured for him to sit down.

Just now I received a call that broke the news. In the east of Wilmslow in the Golden Triangle, someone is building a top-level mansion covering an area of ​​more than ten acres, which has seriously disturbed the peace of the surrounding residents. Go and see.

When Luke heard the news, his brows wrinkled directly. If it wasn't for the fact that he had just had a PY deal with his immediate boss last night, he must now suspect that he was being put into the cold palace.

what is this?

Ordinary disturbing incidents, worth him to follow in person?

Luke was about to say something, but suddenly his brain flashed, and he instantly captured a piece of information.

The so-called Golden Triangle is actually Cheshire, southeast of Manchester Airport, Wilmslow and the surrounding area of ​​Alderley Edge. It consists of three small towns with beautiful scenery and beautiful environment. Manchester's most prestigious affluent area, almost the rich and stars live there.

In particular, the stars of Manchester United, Ferdinand, Rooney and other stars live there, and Cristiano Ronaldo's house is still there, and has not been sold yet.

Boss, isn't any Manchester United player imitating their captain? Luke asked amusingly.

Gary Neville's mansion is in Bolton, north of Manchester. In order to build this mansion, he bought a medieval manor with a lot of money, and then completely remodeled the castle. Due to the very thorough renovation and the long construction period, This triggered strong protests from residents in the surrounding area at that time, and was once forced to stop work.

The Sun also used this to hype it at that time, and Gary Neville also complained many times in private.

This time it should have nothing to do with Manchester United, Mohan said.

Luke was too shrewd to capture the key information at once, Manchester City?

Mohan nodded, According to the information I got, this mansion covers an area of ​​more than ten acres and is very large. There are two artificial lakes, one small and one large, in the northwest and southeast of the plot, which were originally used for irrigation. The rivers are connected, but as you know, Wilmslow is all mansions now, and the land is deserted.

About a few months ago, a mysterious buyer purchased three pieces of land around the artificial lake and connected them into one piece. Now, construction is underway to build mansions and gardens. The project was contracted to a Chinese engineering team in Manchester Chinatown. The most There are more than 200 people working at the same time, which has a great impact on the surrounding residents.”

Luke listened and nodded again and again, but fortunately he was familiar with the Golden Triangle area, especially Wilmslow, otherwise, he might have believed the editor-in-chief's rhetoric.

why?

Not all towns in the Golden Triangle such as Wilmslow are mansions, but in the suburbs and other well-located areas, all are rich mansions. The most popular way is to buy a piece of land and build a single-family villa by yourself.

Let me ask, in this case, how can the noise disturb the people so seriously?

Obviously, this is just a statement, or an excuse.

I'm quite familiar with the sheriff of Wilmslow. I'll go to him and come and see? Luke suggested.

Mohan nodded. He came to Luke because he knew that he had such a relationship.

This is likely to be a big fish, be careful, don't startle the snake.

Luke nodded and smiled, Understood, don't worry, boss!

…………

…………

Two hours later, in the eastern suburbs of Wilmslow.

Luke and his sheriff friend parked the car on the side of the road and looked at the fence in front of him, as well as the dense trees and green plants inside the fence, not to mention seeing it inside, even if you climbed, don't expect to climb in.

It's really fast. I passed this way last time, and the fence hasn't been built yet. The sheriff laughed.

This group of Chinese engineering teams is hard-working, with many people, quick hands and feet, and quick work.

Any clues? Luke asked.

The sheriff shook his head, I asked a friend to find out. The other party signed a non-disclosure agreement, which is very mysterious, but I found out that this land was sold for two million pounds.

Two million pounds? Luke was a little surprised.

Although Wilmslow's mansion is worth a lot of money, if you say two million pounds, you can definitely buy a ready-made set.

The other party is willing to spend such a large sum of money to purchase the land, how much does the whole mansion have to invest?

Luke, this person's background is not simple, who is it? Did he come to our Manchester United? The sheriff asked with a smile.

Manchester United haven't brought in a superstar since Cristiano Ronaldo left.

I don't know the specifics, otherwise, I wouldn't be here.

After speaking, Luke pursed his lips and motioned him to go and knock on the door.

The wall of the clear cement outer wall has a minimalist fully enclosed gate in the middle. It seems that a complete set of alarm systems have been installed, including the surrounding walls, and there are cameras everywhere.

As soon as someone invades, the alarm system will immediately transmit to the nearby police station.

Such a security system is standard in surrounding mansions, but the equipment in this one is obviously more advanced.

This alarm system is the most advanced security system at the moment. My dear, I heard about it when I went to a meeting in London last time. One set can buy a Rolls-Royce for over a million euros. The sheriff is very knowledgeable.

Precisely because the equipment was expensive, he was cautious, but eventually rang the doorbell.

Who is it? There was English with a strong accent, and it sounded like it was from Chinatown.

I'm the sheriff of the town. My name is George Page. I just received a report that there is too much construction on your side, which is disturbing the people. I'll come and have a look and open the door!

Not long after, the small door beside the gate was opened from the inside.

Sure enough, it was a Chinese engineer from Chinatown.

Mr. Page, our construction has always been carried out in strict accordance with the standard procedures, and it is impossible to disturb the surrounding neighbors. The other party seemed a little nervous.

The construction period is too tight. If there is another incident and the construction period is delayed, it is really not good.

Stop talking, let's go in and have a look.

...

As soon as I entered the small door and saw the huge garden, I suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

The entrance garden is connected to the artificial lake in the southeast, apparently surrounding the mansion.

In the middle is a set of modern style mansion with irregular structure. It has three floors. Now the exterior wall has been done. .

Wow, this house is really good! Luke and Peppa couldn't help but admire.

The Chinese engineer nodded with a smile: The designer is the famous German Alexander Brenner. He is so incredible now that he can't be hired easily, but his design is also very good. The garden and two artificial lakes, as well as leisure Areas, swimming pools and football fields, etc., were hired by another well-known landscape architect.”

Introduced, he also felt honored.

It was a valuable experience for him to be able to participate in the construction of such a mansion.

With such a large amount of money, the investment is very high, right? Luke asked tentatively.

I don't know, I heard that the land is very expensive, mainly because the location is good, there are two artificial lakes, and they are all running water. Later, it cost a lot of money to transform the artificial lake, plus other costs, it is estimated that at least it has been It cost five or six million pounds.

Luke and Peppa are both smacking their tongues, this is too rich, isn't it?

Could it be Mansour, the tycoon of Manchester City?

But soon, Luke rejected this possibility, because he did not think that Mansour had such an aesthetic taste.

Why don't I know, when did Wilmslow come to such a rich man? Luke asked sideways.

Sheriff George Page also shook his head, I haven't heard of it either.

After he finished speaking, he looked at the Chinese engineer, You know, what is the origin of this landlord?

I don't know. The Chinese engineer shook his head, It was the German designer who communicated with us all the time, but I heard that the owner came from Germany, because I heard the designer accidentally mention that he was going back to Germany. Communicate with the owner about the plan.”

The owner hasn't been here? Luke asked.

No, at least I haven't seen it.

Luke nodded, somewhat counted.

If it is as the editor-in-chief Mohan expected, the owner from Germany is probably not wrong.

By the way, has this project been going on for several months? How long will it take?

The Chinese engineer pointed to the single-family mansion in the middle of the garden and said: As you can see, the outer wall is ready, and now the interior is being renovated, and then the soft decoration will be carried out, but there is basically no movement. As for the noise, we have always very attentive.

Luke winked at Page, who understood and warned a few more words, nothing more than to pay attention to construction safety and control noise and dust.

After leaving the gate, Luke immediately took out his mobile phone and called Mohan, the editor-in-chief.

Boss, from Germany, it should be him!
