Li Yonghong arranged for someone to send various operating data and financial reports of AC Milan to Zhang Yida, while anxiously waiting for the news.
Regardless of gray, white, or black, he is still considered a big boss after all, and he will not place all his hopes on Zhang Yida.
Under the introduction of an international broker, he conducted a negotiation with the American tycoon Rocco Comiso.
Comiso was born in Italy and immigrated to the United States at the age of 12. He is a super rich man with a net worth of three to four billion US dollars. He is also the founder of the fifth largest cable TV network in the United States and the owner of the famous American football club New York Cosmos.
Li Yonghong hopes that Comiso will help repay the 390 million euros loan he borrowed from Temasek with interest, and also allow him to personally retain 30% of the AC Milan club shares.
However, Comiso was not an easy man. He sternly rejected Li Yonghong's conditions and only allowed him to retain at most 15% of his shares.
The negotiations broke up unhappily, and Li Yonghong set his sights on Zhang Yida again.
"400 million euros, plus 128 million euros of debt! This is the valuation of the AC Milan club obtained by my private team after investigation."
On the third day after receiving the information from Li Yonghong, Zhang Yida gave the other party a reply.
Li Yonghong was filled with sorrow. What’s the use of 400 million euros?
After repaying the Temasek loan, only 10 million euros will be left.
The pension is enough, but compared with his huge investment in AC Milan, the loss is as high as 4 to 5 billion euros.
"Mr. Zhang, can you add more?"
Zhang Yida said with great regret, "I'm very sorry. Exceeding this number will increase our acquisition risks."
Li Yonghong saw that Zhang Yida's tone was firm and he didn't pester him shamelessly. He said a few words of thanks and hung up the phone.
There is less than a week until AC Milan is officially taken over by Temasek. If he still can't find a suitable buyer, he will lose all his money.
When he tried to contact the American tycoon Comiso again, the latter rejected his request for a meeting.
Because the tycoon found a more suitable target - Florence.
Just when Li Yonghong was in panic, Zhang Yida set foot on European soil.
In a suburban villa in Madrid, Spain, he met Cristiano Ronaldo and his agent Jorge Mendes.
Both of them are well-known figures, one is a top football star in the world and the other is a world-renowned football agent.
Some time ago, when Real Madrid had conflicts with Ronaldo over contract renewal and salary issues, Zhang Yida arranged for people to contact Mendes and Ronaldo.
Cristiano Ronaldo was born in 1985 and is already 33 years old. For a football player, he is already at the end of his career and is no longer at his peak.
No matter how much credit he has made for Real Madrid, football is still a business.
Real Madrid has made a good calculation. While Ronaldo is still a genius, selling him at a good price will also solve the problem of excessive wages, which is a good thing for the club's finances.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been loyal to Real Madrid for 9 years and "proven the truth" here, is also disheartened.
When Messi evaded taxes, he received full protection and defense from Barcelona. But when he was accused of tax fraud last year, Real Madrid only issued a statement and had no other support.
In addition, he also feels that the fans have changed.
When he was in bad condition, the stands booed him repeatedly and shouted the name "Messi". How could he endure this?
In fact, the most important issue is money. His annual salary is 23.6 million euros, while Messi's is 46 million euros. Even Carlos Tevez's annual salary at Shanghai Shenhua has reached 38 million euros.
However, Real Madrid is only willing to give him a salary increase to a mere 30 million euros and renew his contract, and the renewal of the contract has been delayed and has not been implemented.
He doesn't want to be like Beckham and make movies to support his family when he gets old.
While you are still young, earn as much as you can.
After the news that he was leaving Real Madrid was released, wealthy clubs from Qatar, China, and the United States extended olive branches to him.
A wealthy team in the Chinese Super League even offered the highest annual salary in the world, "two-year contract, annual salary of 100 million euros."
But Ronaldo refused. In his words, he didn't want to retire in a non-mainstream league too early.
Cristiano Ronaldo has played for Manchester United in the Premier League and Real Madrid in La Liga, but the level in Ligue 1 is a bit lower, and Bayern is basically the only one in the Bundesliga.
After choosing and choosing, he set his sights on Serie A.
Juventus wanted to poach him and had many communications with Real Madrid.
Cristiano Ronaldo is also very interested. After all, joining Juventus will give him the opportunity to play in the Champions League and compete for the sixth Ballon d'Or in his life. He will not be inferior to Messi in terms of the number of awards.
But halfway through, a Yanhuang investment appeared!
After his agent told him the news, he scoffed a little. He didn't even own a football club, so why should he let me join?
But Mendes is not a simple person. It is not unreasonable for his career to be so big. He is very good at controlling people's hearts.
He first analyzed Zhang Yida, the man behind Yanhuang Investment, to Ronaldo and told him that he was a billionaire.
Internet tycoons are never short of money and are much more generous than those engaged in industry!
In addition, it was also implicitly pointed out that Zhang Yida is about to join AC Milan. This is a century-old giant that has won 7 Champions League championships, second only to Real Madrid's 11 times.
Although there has been some decline in recent years, it does not disgrace the superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
If Ronaldo can lead this down-and-out giant to the top again, his career can come to a successful end.
At the same time, it also proves his strength. No matter which league he goes to or what kind of team he goes to, he can shine again.
Cristiano Ronaldo still has great trust in his agent. It was this boss who arranged his transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid 9 years ago, which marked the second highlight of his life.
Agents and players also have a community of interests, and there is no need for Mendes to cheat him.
He decided to meet with Zhang Yida to determine his next career plan.
Zhang Yida smiled and shook hands with the two of them, "Mr. Mendes, Mr. Ronaldo, I am very happy to meet you!"
Mendes looked at Zhang Yida as if he saw a walking golden mountain, and responded enthusiastically.
Cristiano Ronaldo was curious about Zhang Yida's youth. Although the information said he was only 23 years old, when he saw the real person, he always felt like he was younger than 20 years old.
Maybe Asians are younger!
"Mr. Zhang, is the AC Milan matter almost settled?"
Mendes was immediately concerned about this issue because it related to his subsequent cooperation with Zhang Yida.
If the team hasn't won it, talking about anything else is nonsense.
He didn't know how Zhang Yida would take over, but according to his investigation, AC Milan's current owner Li Yonghong had financial problems and was looking for a buyer.
He had no doubts about Zhang Yida's financial resources, but he was afraid that something would go wrong in the process of taking over.
"Mr. Mendes, please rest assured that everything will be settled within a week!"
Mendes' eyes turned into a smile, "That's good! Haha, if you need any help, Mr. Zhang, just ask."
Ronaldo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked: "Mr. Zhang, can you talk to me about your next plans for AC Milan?
I heard that UEFA banned AC Milan from participating in European competitions for two years for violating Financial Fair Play."
This is also the issue that Ronaldo is most concerned about. He is already 33 years old and will be 35 in two years.
Although he was very confident in himself, he also clearly felt that his physical fitness had deteriorated.
Recently I rarely go out to find new communication techniques for supermodels, it’s really too much for me.
