Sergey Smike didn't know that he had already walked around the gate of hell, raised his hand and greeted the waitress at the door, asking her to bring her two cups of coffee.
Xu Chuan took the cup and sniffed it and called the waitress, "Well, please change it to Mocha, thank you."
Smike took a sip with the cup and decided to skip the greetings with the other party and go straight to the topic. The young man in front of him seemed not to play according to common sense.
"Mr. Grylls, I invited you here today mainly because of the Bucs' acquisition case." Both of them knew the purpose of meeting today, and Xu Chuan didn't need to pretend to be ignorant of the other party.
"Of course I understand, but you also know that this matter is no longer what I or the Pirates said." Xu Chuan nodded and replied. After the intervention of the US professional basketball team, this acquisition case was actually not something that Crod Taylor could decide alone.
In order to maintain his capital chain, Taylor must reach a deal as soon as possible, and he has no choice but to cooperate with the decision of the MBA.
Smike complained in his heart that if you hadn't been in a slut, the MBA would not have stopped my acquisition case at all, but now is not the time to blame the other party, "I understand, so I'm wondering if there is any other way to solve this problem."
Xu Chuan showed an expression that he wanted to hear the details.
"We can cooperate and acquire the Pirates together." For Smike's name on the Pirates is now more important than anything else. "Zetrov can take a portion of his equity and give in to the management rights."
Xu Chuan raised his eyebrows, and for a moment he felt that the other party planned to comfort him first and then find an opportunity to do him, because he suggested that he consider it in any posture, but he didn't think of where it was operable.
"Oh, that's OK."
This answer made Smike, who had prepared many reasons, feel a moment of trance.
"You mean, agree?"
Xu Chuan nodded, "No problem, as long as the US Vocational Basketball Team agrees, I won't have a big problem." He looked at the other party with a very sincere look. If all the words said before signing the agreement count, wouldn't there be anything UC Technology has to do with this acquisition?
He thought Smike understood this truth, but now he realized that it might be because he was thinking too much, or the middle-aged man in front of him had not passed the second phase yet?
Smike looked at Xu Chuan with a little hesitation. Would it be too simple?
But Master Xu was about to find something for him, "To be honest, I don't understand why Zetrov must acquire the Pirates."
This is actually he is making a fool of himself. The sports industry has been growing in recent years. However, last year, the total output value of the American sports market reached nearly 350 billion US dollars. Everyone wants to get a share here. Just like in China, many wealthy people have begun to contact European football clubs.
He said this, it was just like saying crosstalk first. Smike seriously explained to him Zetrov's business territory and his ambitions, and of course there were some elements of showing off.
Xu Chuan nodded while listening, and then echoed a few words like, "So that's it. I have little experience and never thought about these things."
"Zetrov is really a big group. He can develop in Africa while developing so many fields. It's amazing that our UC technology can't do it." He pretended to be inadvertent and successfully made Smike look puzzled.
"Africa?", he frowned. Zetlov did have some investments in Africa, mainly some minerals. However, due to the security situation there, the operation was not very good, and many of them were in a loss-making state.
"Yes," Xu Chuan didn't say much. The more he said, the more he was wrong, just make the other party confused. "Didn't the one next to you have been to Africa?"
Smike's face did not change significantly, and his scheming was pretty good.
“Indeed, we do have several development plans involving Africa this year.”
Xu Chuan smiled with an admiration.
He was not worried that Smike would ask Ali about this matter directly unless the other party's mind was in trouble.
After that, they all took the initiative to skip this topic and talked about other things.
An hour later, the two of them walked out of the reception room.
The reporters at the gate immediately rushed up, and both sides stood at the gate and shook their hands enthusiastically to show that the negotiation process was very pleasant.
Xu Chuan said nothing in the face of the reporter's camera. As for what Smike would say, it was actually not important at all. Creating public opinion is no longer suitable for the current acquisition case.
"Get a minute..." Curtis blocked the crowd and then let Xu Chuan get in the car.
"Our talks were very successful. Bell is a very thoughtful young man. We coincided with some things..." Smike accepted the interview with great enthusiasm, but did not say that he planned to cooperate with the other party.
He only needs to get the US professional basketball team, and this investment plan can still be half successful. Of course, he has considered the other party's just perfunctory statement, but now he can only take one step at a time.
Moreover, Smike cares more about the thing Griers seemed to have said accidentally, Ali Taselov has been to Africa.
Smike calmly asked his confidant to investigate Ali's whereabouts. Of course he could see this obvious sow discord, but this does not mean that he can ignore this matter, and Gogol's recent movements are indeed a bit abnormal.
As Zetrov's private soldier, if there is a problem, Gogol will have a serious impact. The security work within the group and the senior management, including his own residence, is maintained by Gogol.
"Help me contact the chairman of the American Basketball Team." Before the investigation results came out, he still had to focus on his attention.
...
On the other hand, as soon as the meeting between Xu Chuan and Smike ended, the chairman of the American Vocational Federation contacted him and asked about their talks tactfully.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He said Smike's idea and told the other party that as long as you agree, I will be fine. He threw this problem directly to the other party to solve it.
The chairman of the US Professional Basketball Team was relieved to hear him say this. The other party also did not want any more troubles in the acquisition case. "Mr. Grylls, I hope the Pirates can sign an intention agreement with UC Technology first."
As for Zetrov and other things, the USF hopes that he can go as far as he can.
So after the U.S. Professional Basketball Team Chairman received a call from Smike, he refused the other party's idea without hesitation. Some media conducted an investigation and many New Yorkers said that if the E-Chinese buys the Pirates, they will never watch the team's game again.
Even if this kind of investigation is not credible, there is no need for the US professional basketball team to risk offending fans when there is a choice.
A day later, UC Technology representatives publicly signed an intention agreement with the Pirates, and the images on the TV directly caused Sergey Smike to smash the TV.
However, he also received another news, Ali did go to Africa for a long time, and his whereabouts became a mystery during this period, and his confidant investigated that Ali and the senior executives of the Russians have been very close to each other recently.
This incident made Smike let down his plan to retaliate against UC Technology, and he at least needs to deal with internal problems first.
After further investigation, Smike found that he had completely lost control of Gogol, which made him sweat in a cold sweat. He could only board the plane and return to Moscow without hesitation, and let Ali stay to deal with some subsequent matters.
Smike didn't dare to let the other party be responsible for his safety anymore, and even the people on the plane left only their confidants and two bodyguards, which would not make Ali suspicious, but could also control variables within a controllable range.
Ali Taselov looked at the private plane that took off and felt a little confused, and Smike's attitude seemed a little unusual.
Xu Chuan on the other side is celebrating the signing of the agreement with some of the big players of the Pirates and some management teams.
Crod Taylor has received assurance from the U.S. basketball chairman that the acquisition can be passed.
Now, as long as you finalize some details with UC Technology, the transaction will be completed.
The players, coaching teams, and team management are currently in a very confused state. Starting from learning that the boss is going to sell the team, they have already suffered ten consecutive losses with uncertain futures.
Most people know that the new boss will definitely reorganize the team. Now these people are likely to be traded, so all the players are constantly brushing the data, at least they can look better during trading, and no one is caring about the team's record.
The UC Technology team is just here to talk about the acquisition. These people are also not sure how to manage a team. Xu Chuan asked them who wanted to become the manager of an NBA giant, first come first served, and then he was speechlessly rejected.
One of the management teams in charge of the negotiation team told him the reason. The development prospects of UC Technology are far greater than that of this so-called wealthy family. They can see at a glance how this team can reach, but it is just a championship, while UC Technology is full of unknowns and hopes.
Master Xu was stunned when he heard this. What does it mean? Fortunately, technology is in the hands of civilization? You are really good at joking.
"I don't know how to run the team, just say it straight."
Who said that these foreigners are straight? You see what others said, is there something wrong with them?
So now there is only one question in front of Xu Chuan. How to manage this team? I always feel like I have caused trouble for myself.
However, there is still some time before the formal signing of the contract, and there are still a lot of legal issues to be solved. During this period, he can understand why the team's original management team was able to manage the New York team to its current results.
But now he needs to appease the current management, find an office, and call the current team manager over.
This guy in his thirties scolded Crod Taylor as soon as he came up, and then complained to Xu Chuan that Taylor likes to interfere in the team's management too much, and his abilities and vision are really hard to describe.
"But Taylor is definitely a good person. He almost always sits on the sidelines at every home court of the Pirates, and insists on charity. He will definitely help his friends with any difficulties, but he really likes to interfere in the management of the team and is stubborn."
It can be seen that this person's attitude towards his former boss is very complicated. Taylor may be a good friend, but he is definitely not a good boss.
Xu Chuan nodded with a smile, "Then he should be better than me, at least I can't be on the sidelines at every home court. Well, it's very likely that he will be away all the time."
After making a joke, Xu Chuan continued to comfort the other party and told him that he did not plan to reorganize the team for the time being. After all, the majority of young people in the team currently account for and he did not plan to fire the management team for the time being.
After talking, the old man walked out of the room in a dizzy state. A middle-aged man in his fifties was waiting for him in the corridor.
"How is it? Should we be unemployed?" This is the team's coach, looking at the other party with a complicated expression.
"Well, maybe not, this boss seems to be different."
