Chapter 62 The Boss’ Mind
Gao Bo looked at David Morton sitting in front of him with interest.
Today's David looks more energetic than Gao Bo had seen before. His hair was smeared with a thick layer of hairspray, and the hair attached to his scalp was combed back like pine needles with a greasy big back.
Look at the surrounding environment again, a high-end bar, very quiet, occasionally I can hear the murmurs of wine guests.
There is no intertwined covetousness of an English pub, no noise, except for the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground when the bar waiter walks, and the soft classical symphony in the pub.
This is a high-end bar, in other words, it is a high-spending bar.
Gao Bo doesn't like this kind of environment, and what makes him dislike the most is the glass of red wine in front of him.
Compared to red wine, Gao Bo prefers spirits.
"You are rich, David..."
Red wine is also wine, Gao Bo barely lifted the glass and took a sip.
"I made a small fortune from investing recently..." David Morton smiled triumphantly.
Gao Bo couldn't help but glanced at David. 2008 has just passed. If people remember, the frightening financial tsunami has caused many wealthy people to go bankrupt. Under such an environment, investment income can be achieved, which shows that David Morton is not just a second-generation idiot.
Gao Bo turned around the wine glass, he was thinking, should he also invest in it?
However, Gao Bo is not very interested in financial products. He does know that there are several super Internet companies that will grow into world giants in the future.
"Have you heard of Facebook, David?"
Speaking of the fastest growing offensive in the next ten years, in addition to those Internet giants in the country, these Internet giants have grown up in the US market.
In the next ten years after the financial crisis, these Internet companies will grow the fastest.
"I've heard that they are doing a good job. It is said that the number of users has exceeded 100 million."
David Morton is also a young man, he still knows a lot about these new things.
"I am very optimistic about them, maybe you can invest your money in this company." Gao Bo raised his glass, frowned and took another sip.
Compared to the current environment, Gao Bo prefers the tavern on the street.
"Do you still know how to invest?" David looked suspicious.
Regarding Gao Bo's professionalism in football coaching, American David is still full of doubts about Gao Bo, a Chinese man instructing him in financial investment.
David, who has made some money, feels that he is the wolf of Wall Street. If it is to discuss football tactics, David Morton will not have any doubts about Gao Bo, but if it comes to investment finance... David Morton But when the confidence is most bursting.
David Morton did not continue this topic. He asked Gao Bo out to talk about it.
"Congratulations to the team for eliminating Chelsea and reaching the fourth round of the FA Cup!" David Morton toasted.
Gao Bo responded with a toast.
"Is that Adam White really as good as the media said?" David Morton looked curious.
"If he can maintain the crazy performance against Chelsea, he will be England's genius comparable to Robben." Gao Bo naturally wouldn't say that Adam's performance was so crazy because of the card increase effect.
"How much do you think he is worth?"
David Morton leaned over, his eyes gleaming.
"If it is now, those big clubs would be willing to spend about five million at most." Gao Bo frowned, but Gao Bo answered truthfully to the boss's inquiry.
Spending five million to buy a young player in the second division, this was an exaggerated figure in 2008.
"Only five million?!"
David Morton's disappointment was on his face.
"Didn't you say that he can match Robben?"
"Yes, if you follow this trend, I won't be surprised if Adam White surpasses Robben. But on the football field, there are many geniuses of all kinds, but most of the people's final development is not the same as expected. Yes. There are many talented players, but if you want to become a top superstar, injuries, mentality, and even luck will affect their growth." Gao Bo put down the wine glass and looked at David Morton seriously: " After all, Adam now is just a semi-finished product."
David Morton nodded.
"I think the English media these days call him a genius player comparable to Messi..."
"Do you believe in the English media?"
"I would rather believe that Wall Street is all honest people..."
The two laughed, causing the high-end people around them to look at them.
There is really no quality...
......
The two laughing people have lost the purity of the past.
Gao Bo understands what it means for David Morton to ask himself how much Adam is worth.
For David Morton, maintaining such a professional club is actually very difficult. Even if it is a second division team, the net investment of hundreds of thousands of pounds a year is a heavy burden for the rich second-generation David Morton who has died of his father.
And now Luton, most of the income comes from the tickets for the home game, as well as the prize money in the cup this season, and the income from the broadcast share. But compared with buying and selling players, this income is obviously insignificant. Don’t look at David Morton’s disappointment that Adam White can only buy five million dollars. This is because in his heart, Adam White is at least It can be sold for more than 10 million pounds.
10 million pounds, let alone David Morton, his deceased father earned this in a year.
With so much money, it’s no wonder that David Morton is thinking about...
"If in another two years, if Adam White grows well, the big clubs will wave a check to compete for him. But now, he will definitely not be able to sell too high a price."
Gao Bo thought for a while and said, considering the language.
Gao Bo actually does not want to make money by buying and selling players. It takes a lot of energy to bring out a team completely. If possible, Gao Bo wants to keep this group of players all the time. It is some young people. If this group of young people is retained, Luton can even rely on this group of young people to continue to rise to the Premier League, and even in the Premier League, they can also have a certain degree of competitiveness.
After all, if the main lineup of a team is changed every year, this is not a good thing for the team's combat effectiveness.
The owner of the team is thinking about making money, but the head coach of the team is not interested in it.
"By the way, Chelsea refused to give us the ticket money for the third round of the FA Cup..." Gao Bo said bad news.
The smile on David Morton's face froze.
This game alone has hundreds of thousands of ticket revenues~lightnovelpub.net~ Luton can be said to be salivating for this piece of cake.
According to the official rules of the FA Cup, ticket revenue should be divided equally between the opponents. But according to convention, when the giants play against low-level teams, they will donate their half to their opponents.
Only this time, Chelsea apparently had a grudge with Luton, whether it was Scolari or Chelsea’s boss Abramovich, even if these hundreds of thousands of pounds are only a small amount of money to Chelsea, they are not willing to give them to what they hate Gao Bo...
David Morton looked at Gao Bo a little bitterly.
Obviously, if Gao Bo hadn't offended Chelsea so badly before the game, Luton would have had hundreds of thousands of pounds in ticket revenue.
...
Gao Bo walked out of the bar wearing a black plush coat.
Half a year ago, David Morton was just a second generation who inherited his father’s negative equity.
And now, David Morton is the owner of the most powerful team in the second division. If the ball is sold to all the main players, at least 20 million pounds or more of funds will be received-and It's cash!
This almost makes the team's owner's assets more than ten times.
Gao Bo understands David Morton's ideas very well. To be honest, if he has the opportunity to earn so much in less than half a year, he can hardly guarantee that he will not be tempted.
But after all, Gao Bo is the head coach of the team. He doesn't want his players to be sold by the boss...
This is a team that puts so much energy into it.
He glanced at the gray sky and the drizzle of rain falling in the sky. Gao Bo was also used to this kind of weather. He didn't hold an umbrella and walked directly into the drizzle.
