Chapter 239 Mendes’ inquiry
20 million euros.
Even for a big star, that's still a huge amount of money.
Not to mention Li De.
After returning home, Xia Xing asked Li De seriously: "How am I going to spend it?"
Li De shrugged: "He has already spent half of it."
Xia Xing: "He wiped! Am I so cruel?"
"What's the matter?" Li De looked unconcerned. "It's just a windfall, so that's it. If you say less, it will be enough for him to eat and drink for several lifetimes; if you say more, then the leprosy cannot be cured.
What's the use of his legs?"
Xia Xing nodded: "My boy really lives a clear life. He is very curious, how did I spend half of it in one go?"
Li De gave him a detailed count.
"He spent eight million to set up a technology studio.
"Shemen researches AI technology.
“In the future, AI will definitely become the leader in technology.
"It doesn't matter how much money he spends, as long as he wants to create a better future with his own legs."
"With a million dollars, he bought himself some toys.
"Well, it's like a leg that costs more than one million yuan, a limited edition game console, an old game cartridge, etc.
"Money has to be spent.
“It’s a million dollars, I’ll keep it for next year to continue gambling.
"He is ready to beat Leicester City for the Premier League title and the Champions League title.
"Fifty thousand each.
"Actually, he wanted to shoot more, but he was already limited.
"Just give it up."
Xia Xing next to him was stunned for a moment.
Is that okay?
Xia Xing is very supportive of the eight-million-dollar technology studio.
That guy is definitely a super genius.
Xia Xing didn't understand either, but Mendes had told him.
Thaksin Mendes.
And is it really okay to have one million leg figures, game consoles and the like?
Be willing to spend money.
Gold Medal Otaku.
There's a lot to bet on a million dollars.
In all likelihood, it's all in vain.
Leicester City won the Premier League championship, which is a bit of a success.
But it is too slim to win the Champions League.
Too unrealistic.
Even though Xia Xing was confident in himself and the team, he didn't dare to think that far ahead.
Winning the Champions League means trying to outdo countless giants such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, and Juventus.
Leicester City's strength is far inferior to that of the other side. If you want to win against them, how much good luck will you need to accumulate?
It doesn't matter if it's not, it's only 200,000 euros anyway.
After all, they even bought leg figures and game consoles worth more than one million yuan.
Do you care about that one million yuan?
Anyway, it's his own money, just be happy.
Two months later, Li De invested one million.
Leicester City won the Premier League title and Leicester City won the Champions League title.
Five hundred thousand each.
At that time, the odds determined by the betting company based on the situation were 100 to 1 and 200 to 1 respectively.
Regarding Leicester City winning the league championship, most people are not optimistic about it.
After all, they were relatively young in the Premier League, and that season they barely ranked fifth despite being in a strong state.
That's all.
And in the Champions League, they are even more unfavorable.
Although they performed well in the Europa League that season and were a dark horse, their success had a lot to do with luck.
If they had won the Europa League that season and the Champions League the following season, they would have truly been the darkest dark horse in the history of international football.
No one can compare.
So those odds are reasonable.
As for Li De's high investment, the media also obtained information and publicized it.
As a ruthless person who took away 20 million from the gaming company in one go, he not only did not cause the gaming company to suffer, but was actively promoted by the gaming company.
See how much they talk about the spirit of contract.
The advertising effect is gone.
So when Li De invested one million in one breath, the gaming company was in a good mood.
It's a little bit of a return on capital, although it's not much, but it's okay.
Compared to Li De, who was paid more attention by gambling companies, Xia Xing received more attention.
As a popular star in Eastern Europe, he has already been considered by countless wealthy families.
Mendes called Xia Xing every three days to tell him who was mistakenly interested in him and who offered him a high salary.
Can Xia Xing remain unmoved?
"Xia, do I really not think about it? After all, those are not the wealthy clubs that many players dream of."
"Not consider."
"I stayed at Leicester City last year, no problem, and he agreed at the time. After all, I didn't prove my ability in the top European leagues. But it's different now. I'm the Premier League assists leader, the Europa League top scorer, and the leader
When the team wins the Triple Crown, every team can take this achievement seriously, regardless of the playing time. Even if the main force is not guaranteed, it will still focus on attacking players."
"Then he won't consider it either."
"The salary is also very high. The highest salary is even five times higher than my current salary. I will be able to get high attention, advertising, endorsements, and more."
"He knows, but he doesn't think about it."
"Am I sure I'm staying at Leicester City?"
"Well, he wants to stay in the East and play in the Champions League and the Premier League."
"I can change to another team and play in the Champions League or the Premier League. Or La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, or Ligue 1."
"But if he is a perfect playmaker there, he likes that feeling. Very much, he has a lot of room for improvement. He hopes that when he becomes a truly world-class star, he will consider going to a higher stage.
For now, he can be improved there. And he is just a talented young man, a rising star. He is just worth cultivating. He is not interested in that position."
"Are they from wealthy families? Can they just give me the core position in the organization?"
"So, he begged to stay in Leicester City for a while, and then he would consider it again when a top club was willing to give him a core position."
After hearing Xia Xing's words, Mendes on the phone nodded.
"Okay, he is very popular. Although he has different opinions, he supports me to stick to myself, and he also believes that I have my own reasons. I may have been waiting for a long time to become a world-class star."
"No, he doesn't think it will be long."
"Okay, I'll keep going. If you need anything from him, call him anytime!"
"Thank you, Mr. Mendez."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Xing sighed in his heart.
For Xia Xing, Mendes is really an excellent agent.
He will give me a lot of advice, which is very helpful to me.
Even if his values are different from his own, Mendes will respect Xia Xing's ideas and work hard in the direction Xia Xing wants to pursue.
Really an excellent agent.
Now, Xia Xing didn't want to leave and told Mendes.
After Mendez put forward his opinion, when he saw that Xia Xing insisted on his idea, he was not stubborn and expressed his approval.
Not only that, Mendes did a lot of work that Xia Xing didn't know about.
For example, the way he rejected the wealthy families was very gentle.
And both inside and outside the words leave room for the future.
The major wealthy families also understand Xia Xing's desire to seek a core position.
Since they can't give it for the time being, they are not willing to come.
Then, wealthy families are willing to wait.
After all, Xia Xing will only turn 20 next year.
You are so young and don’t worry about the future.
