Walsh saw that Lu Wei was silent, and organized the management to explain to the outside world, first stabilized the club's military heart.

"Jules, you go and sort out the financial statements and government seals of the previous two years, send everything that can be sent, and first prove that we were not acquired by Lu, Andy. Walker, go and organize a press conference and tell them that it will never change that we Red Rebels will not be bought by anyone, even if the acquirers are our own.

"David, go talk to Johnson about the protesting fans outside, whether they don't believe in the club or all the fans think the club has changed."

"Liam, go to the city council and see if the government can help refute the rumors. Logan, go to the court to file a lawyer's letter, this article has already slandered our club and manager, has caused a bad impact in society, if necessary, you can fight with the Sun. As

one instruction after another went on, there were fewer and fewer people in the office, Andy. Walsh deserves to be the president of the club, although he is just an ordinary fan, but he is really very mature in the management of the club.

I believe that after this series of operations, at least the fans will not think that the team has been acquired by Lu Wei, and there is no need to worry about the fans' paradise becoming his words.

But there is another thing that is difficult to handle, that is, the source of funding for the new stadium and the new training base, in order to open his own territory in Newton Heath, Lu Wei provided up to 600 million pounds to the club, although it passed the review of the foundation in the form of sponsorship contracts, future sharing contracts and donations, and was able to complete the stadium smoothly, but this completely personal financial help to the team to operate has violated the bottom line of some fans.

The membership system is a membership system because it is not for the main purpose of profit, and the membership system is different from the shareholder system, where shareholders can participate in dividends and members cannot participate in dividends. Membership teams generate revenue each year mainly through membership fees, stadium tickets, team merchandise, broadcast revenue, sponsorship sponsorship and advertising endorsements. The club publishes a statement every year, but this report is only responsible to the club members and does not need to be reviewed by the professional football league, so it does not need to break even.

Clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona have huge fans, member groups, and government support behind them, so they are not worried about financial losses.

But FC United is different, with the belief of fans, the team's tickets, the food of the stadium is the lowest in the Championship, the membership fee of the club member is only 80 pounds / year, plus the broadcast of the game and the sponsorship of the English Football League, as well as the transfer fee brought by Mane, Macaida and others, the normal annual income is about 8 million pounds, this season in the Championship will only become more, Spencer has estimated, At the end of the season, even if FC United fail to upgrade, they can make at least £18 million profit.

So where did the money for the stadium and training base come from? Lu Wei has long known that he cannot provide such a huge amount of money to the club in the form of donations, which will definitely bring trouble in the future, the land was bought in Lu Wei's personal name, and then signed a land lease contract with the club, of course, the rental fee is given at the minimum standard.

Then there is the cost of building the stadium, Lu Wei and Lu Xiuyuan's company used more than half of the funds to buy the naming rights and transformation rights of the stadium, although the name of the stadium was voted by the fans, and the transformation plan was also discussed by the club, in fact, Lu Wei did not profit from it.

Some people say that Lu Wei is too selfless to the team, but is he really not rewarding at all? The other half of the funds to cover the stadium is the money borrowed by FC United Club from Lu Wei through financial leverage, and the rest is to be returned to Lu Wei, but this repayment period is very long, every year Lu Wei only takes a small part of the team's profits, even if the team's income increases sharply after rising to the Premier League, this debt will take seven or eight years to pay off.

This is also money laundering in disguise, but it is good to pass the financial investigation of the English Football League, and everything is legal and compliant.

Not to mention the money, Lu Wei completed his rebirth in Manchester and Nirvana in Newton Heath, is it not worth the effort he pays for the sport and team he loves?

Lu Wei did not pay attention to this protest of the fans, there is nothing wrong with my own principles, I am not breaking the traditions and beliefs of the club, I am just using my power to change this team, change the football world in Manchester, change the history of football in this world.

Lu Wei watched Walsh arrange everything, and he was also making additions on the side, and he couldn't watch the club busy for himself but sit on the side and don't care about anything.

"Lu, what are your plans next?" Walsh finally sat down and took a sip of tea.

"Andy, I think what you just did is good enough, even a little, don't you know what virtues the Sun is? The club has been established to this day has proved a lot of things, the fans are not fools, I believe that like Johnson they will be on the side of trusting the club, as for those who do not believe, then they are not worthy of our Red Rebels fans, just some wind rudder.

Lu Wei said and picked up the teapot to refill a cup of tea for Walsh.

"You see this pot of tea, is China's bamboo leaf tea, bamboo is one of the toughest plants, there is an ancient poem to describe bamboo, called 'thousands of tempers are still tough, let the east, west, south and north winds', which means that after a person has gone through a variety of hardships and temperings, no matter what kind of rumors and rumors in the outside world, I will stand there and stand tall."

Walsh looked at Lu Wei standing in front of the table, the setting sun behind him shone in this room, Walsh seemed to see a god standing there, a god who brought infinite light to the team.

Afternoon press conference at Andy. Soon after Walker's control, FC United announced its normal way of operation, everything is legal and compliant, a thorough membership club, and warned the Sun reporter that if it continues to report fake news about FC United, it will file a lawsuit against The Sun.

Three people become tigers, people are fearful, the clear one is self-clearing, the turbid one is self-turbid, I don't need to say anything more, I have always been part of the Red Rebels, I will always be the head coach of the team as long as the team needs me, Lu Wei left Newton Heath after only saying a word at the press conference.
