The two chefs in the kitchen were busy, processing the ingredients in an orderly manner, and then the maids presented them to the table.
Butler Brown turned into a sommelier and introduced the brandy in his hand with a smile.
"Mr. Chen, this is the top-quality brandy I got from a friend specially for you. It is extremely rare.
I believe that only rich people like you in the whole of London are qualified to taste this precious bottle of spirit."
Look at this wording, no matter how picky Chen Dongcheng is, he can't find anything he's dissatisfied with.
"Well, you are interested."
Chen Dongcheng looked at the somewhat mottled bottle, which seemed to have been aged for a while.
However, the bottle body is smooth and translucent, and it can be seen that it has been carefully wiped frequently.
"This is the brandy of 1788, created the year before the French Revolution.
I believe this is definitely one of the few preserved precious spirits in the world.
Currently there are only five cups available, I hope you will be satisfied.”
Brown's back was straight, his left hand was holding the bottle, and his right hand was slightly tilted, and he slowly poured the brandy in the bottle into the wine glass in front of Chen Dongcheng.
Chen Dongcheng waited for Brown to finish pouring, then pointed to the wine glass in front of Marotta: "Pour a glass for Giuseppe."
"As you wish."
Brown smiled slightly, nodded to Marotta, and poured Marotta a glass.
It's said to be a cup, but it's actually just one mouthful.
"Thank you for your generosity and giving me the opportunity to taste such precious brandy."
Marotta smiled and picked up the wine glass very gently.
With even a flick of the wrist, dozens of pounds are scattered on the table.
"cheers."
Chen Dongcheng and Marotta touched it lightly, closed their eyes and experienced it carefully. The taste was a bit soft and the aroma was rich.
Drinking this brandy is more of an experience.
To put it bluntly, it’s just to show off.
In order to flaunt themselves, rich people have to find something unique.
I can drink what others cannot afford.
I can eat whatever others can't afford.
This is the lifestyle that most of the new generation of wealthy people have been pursuing.
This has also spawned a large number of businessmen who circle around the new generation of billionaires.
As for models and singers, as long as the rich want it, there's nothing they can't do.
Isa was not interested in brandy, but was full of desire for the jar of caviar in front of her.
Caviar does have anti-aging capabilities, which has led to many luxury skin care brands using caviar as an ingredient and promoting it vigorously.
Women always hope that their appearance can always remain in the most youthful state.
Aging is what women fear most.
A jar of white catfish caviar weighs 1.8 kilograms, and it is impossible for one person to finish it all.
Brown opened the jar, revealing that it was so full of caviar that it was almost overflowing.
"This is caviar imported from Iran, and I specifically contacted a very famous caviar dealer in London.
She has a unique purchasing channel, and although it is a bit more expensive, it is worth every penny.”
Brown took a spoon wrapped in gold foil, scooped out a small spoonful from the middle, gently placed it on the back of Chen Dongcheng's hand, and introduced: "In order to avoid destroying the structure of the caviar and affecting the taste, this way of eating will ensure the taste."
pure."
Real luxury.
When Chen Dongcheng ate, he only felt this way.
No wonder some people say that rich people are spoiled by God.
Who wouldn’t want to live a life like this?
The chef's skills are absolutely outstanding, after all, he was hired with a high salary.
The truffle and beef made were highly praised by Chen Dongcheng and the three of them.
Top quality truffles paired with high quality wagyu beef.
The daily operations of rich people are enough to make ordinary people look up to them for a lifetime.
Chen Dongcheng was sighing with emotion when he realized that Isa didn't eat much else and was obsessed with caviar.
In just one moment, a small hole was cleared.
So a big jar of caviar can really kill a small hole, which is really impressive.
"If you like it, I'll pack it up and take it away later."
Chen Dongcheng asked Brown with a smile: "How many cans of caviar did you buy?"
"I bought five cans. If you are going to hold a party, the white catfish caviar will definitely be the most dazzling dish at the party." Brown replied with a smile.
"I'll pack this jar for Isa and take it away soon, and I'll take another jar for Giuseppe as well."
Chen Dongcheng didn't even ask about the price. He could afford even the most expensive ingredients.
Just a jar of caviar, how expensive can it be?
"I respect you."
Marotta did not refuse. Few people abroad would refuse gifts from friends. Just find an opportunity to return the gift.
What's more, Chen Dongcheng is still his boss, so he can regard this jar of caviar as a reward from his boss for his work.
It was a very enjoyable dinner.
After the meal, the three of them wandered around together, followed not far away by Pang Zhengyang and others.
Marotta is very talkative and tells all kinds of interesting things casually.
As long as he is around, you never have to worry about the atmosphere becoming deserted.
After looking at the time, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and Marotta took the initiative to say goodbye.
Back at the villa, Brown had thoughtfully boiled hot water.
I don’t know where he customized a huge bathtub.
It is no exaggeration to say that there is enough room for three or four Chen Dongcheng inside.
"Mr. Chen, I have prepared a full set of toiletries for you. Miss Isa's, I also asked the maid to prepare them."
Brown also sprinkled rose petals in the tub and dimmed the bathroom lights.
Before Chen Dongcheng could say anything, Brown left the room.
After a while, the door opened again, and Isa changed her clothes and walked in.
…
Tottenham club.
Marotta smiled and shook hands with Chen Dongcheng, with a somewhat informal tone.
"Mr. Chen, you look really good. Miss Isa seems to have got what she wanted."
No matter what kind of company it is, financial power is always the most important right of the company.
Chen Dongcheng transferred Isha to serve as financial director, which is enough to show his trust in Isha.
The relationship between the two is naturally self-evident.
As for Isa...
I exerted too much force last night and was forced to take a rest.
Fortunately, Lao Ma had the sense to make a joke and get to the point right away.
"Recently I have been in contact with the Portuguese management team, and they are interested in discussing it with us, but they have more requirements."
"Tell me about it."
"First of all, the Portuguese require us to offer an annual salary of no less than 30 million euros, and it must be after tax."
Marotta explained: "This salary is considered a sky-high salary in football, and it has exceeded Messi and Neymar.
The Portuguese's appetite is too great, so Real Madrid has been reluctant to renew the Portuguese's contract, which makes Ronaldo even more dissatisfied."
This is quite understandable. When people leave, the tea will cool down.
When Ronaldo was young, Real Madrid had to support him, for fear that other opponents would poach him.
But now that the Portuguese is older, although his strength is still top-notch, his condition will inevitably decline.
If Ronaldo is really offered a higher salary than Messi, it would be a big gamble for Real Madrid.
After all, Messi is two years and four months younger than Ronaldo, which is a gap that is difficult to bridge.
"Secondly, Ronaldo requires the team to formulate tactics around him and he has priority to fire. This request is somewhat excessive."
The reason why a superstar is called a superstar is that he must have unlimited firing rights.
He can play however he wants, and everyone will attack around him.
Chen Dongcheng shook his head: "What did Pochettino say?"
"Mauricio doesn't have any objections. After all, Cristiano Ronaldo's ability and experience are there. It's just the players who need our careful comfort."
Just like in Tottenham, the only one with unlimited firing rights is Kane, the British star.
If Ronaldo comes, Kane's status must decline.
This will inevitably make Kane a little dissatisfied.
But think about Ronaldo's commercial value. As long as he has Ronaldo for two years, Tottenham's fan base will definitely increase crazily.
Not to mention anything else, after Cristiano Ronaldo joined Juventus, the number of Juventus fans on Instagram skyrocketed from less than 10 million to 35 million, more than three times the number.
How long will it take for Juventus to develop fans by itself?
Three years?
Five years?
No one can be sure that the combined commercial value of Juventus' entire team is dwarfed by Ronaldo's.
It's the same thing in Tottenham's formation.
Not to mention, if Douyin goes overseas in the future, Cristiano Ronaldo can definitely become the best spokesperson for Douyin.
This is a good thing that benefits both sides.
Facilitating Ronaldo's transfer is not just as simple as strengthening Tottenham's strength.
The explorable value behind it is huge.
The only thing Chen Dongcheng is worried about is whether the Portuguese's willingness to transfer is that strong.
Even though Tottenham have made all the preparations, if Ronaldo suddenly goes back on his word, it would be a joke.
After Marotta understood Chen Dongcheng's thoughts, he shook his head with a smile: "I assure you that the Portuguese have made up their mind completely. I know this best."
Chen Dongcheng suddenly remembered that it was not Marotta who seduced Ronaldo to Juventus in history.
Marotta said with a smile: “First of all, the Spanish tax bureau is giving the Portuguese a lot of headaches.
The Spanish Tax Agency suspects Ronaldo of tax evasion, although the Portuguese consultants and lawyers are trying their best to defend him.
We also searched for a lot of evidence, but off-site affairs seriously affected the energy of the Portuguese people."
Tax evasion is not uncommon.
No one can tell exactly what happened.
Cristiano Ronaldo said that all taxes were paid by sponsors, but the Spanish tax bureau tried to kill him for tax evasion. What can be done about it?
Anyway, we can only drag it out like this first to see which side can persist to the end.
"Secondly, Real Madrid is only willing to give the Portuguese a contract extension of 25 million euros after tax.
Cristiano Ronaldo is already a little disappointed, which can be seen from his agent Mendes traveling around the world."
"In the end, Real Madrid fans, even his teammates, and the team president became more and more mean to him and even criticized him."
"How could Ronaldo not leave in the face of such a situation?"
Marotta said confidently: "Manchester United is the least sincere. They quoted a symbolically cheap price and fooled the fans. They were the first to be passed by Real Madrid."
"Paris is afraid that Real Madrid will poach Neymar. Although they are willing to offer him an annual salary of 30 million euros after tax, it must be done before the trade deadline.
It would be too dangerous for the Portuguese and would certainly not be considered."
"We are the only team that has the strength and sincerity to buy the Portuguese. I believe that Real Madrid and the Portuguese will make the most correct choice."
Cristiano Ronaldo's transfer looks pretty good, but in reality it's disappointing.
Manchester United can't afford it, and if Paris Saint-Germain goes there, it will have to deal with Neymar.
Real Madrid are determined to sell him, otherwise his annual salary will be a burden.
There are many wealthy families, but only a few can afford him.
After Lao Ma's analysis, Chen Dongcheng immediately made up his mind.
"Regarding Ronaldo's transfer, I entrust you with full authority. The Portuguese must be taken down."
"Don't worry, I guarantee that the Portuguese will wear Tottenham's jersey and shine in the Premier League!"
Marotta expressed his stance with a slight smile, full of confidence.
Historically, it was Marotta who strongly advocated for Juventus to buy Ronaldo.
Now that Marotta has come to Tottenham, it is not certain whether Juventus will buy him.
Even if Juventus joins the competition, Tottenham will not be deterred at all.
In terms of league influence, the Premier League crushes Serie A.
Ronaldo's return to the Premier League will definitely be a hot topic.
Just the drama of Tottenham vs. Manchester United will definitely attract the attention of countless fans.
As long as Tottenham performs well in the Champions League this season and satisfies the Portuguese's competitive spirit, this deal is absolutely stable.
