Smith really hates Sean's behavior of throwing money at every opportunity!

This made him feel like he was betraying his faith and tradition!

Sean is a devil, using blasphemous words to destroy his own spirit and will, and he is being pulled by him to sink into the abyss little by little.

Because he was shamefully tempted!

"Sean, you are so hateful, you can't do this!" Smith held his head and said with a look of pain.

Sean grinned, laughed silently, reached out and patted Smith's arm, and said kindly: "Don't be like this, it's nothing. The pain is only temporary, bear it and it will pass. You will feel it later."

All that’s left is pleasure!”

"You should think so, your efforts are valuable, and you are promoting the great cause of football to the football desert of the United States."

"You want to let the people in the football desert appreciate the infinite charm of football. Your sacrifice is great and worthy of praise. You will definitely be remembered in football history!"

"This..." After Sean said this, Smith's expression gradually eased from the heartache and depression, "Is this really the case? Sean, you can't lie to me, otherwise my soul will be uneasy!"

"Of course not!" Sean patted his chest seriously and said, "I mean, I'm Sean, and I own the largest cable TV network in the United States, covering a population of 320 million in South America."

"New Century Media has a dedicated sports channel that broadcasts various sports programs around the world. Once I become a shareholder of Arsenal, you only need to think about it to know that I will definitely promote it throughout North America. This is not a matter of course.

Yes!"

"I will promote English League One, and the focus will be on Arsenal. Arsenal is about to open up a new territory, and it will become the club with the most fans in the world!"

"Isn't this promoting football, isn't it for the development of Arsenal?"

Being fooled by Sean, Smith immediately became excited, "Yes, Sean, you are right, why did I forget that you are a media tycoon, and since you like football so much, why don't you promote football!"

"I am sacrificing for football, for England, and for the arsenal. I am great!"

As if he had found the fulcrum of his belief, the guilt in Smith's heart disappeared.

That’s $10 million!

Everyone knows what Arsenal, or in other words English football, is like now.

Let’s just talk about today’s game. There are only 100 seats at Highbury Stadium. Even if the ticket price is discounted, there are only about 100 people attending the game, which is less than 60% of the occupancy rate.

This kind of attendance rate, let alone making money, is simply operating at a loss. It has been losing money for several consecutive years!

The stadium is aging, big-name stars have been lost, its popularity has declined, and the stadium management has encountered great difficulties.

This is Arsenal in London. Other teams are in even worse condition. In the entire English League One, no club is making money.

One third of clubs are on the verge of bankruptcy!

Although this is not the first time I have experienced this, it is still frustrating.

Otherwise, the Hillwood family would not have released some shares just to find someone to take the risk.

To be honest, purely from a value perspective, 10% of Arsenal's shares are not worth US$1 million. Six million is considered high, even if the celebrity effect and social attributes attached to Arsenal's shareholders are taken into account.

…

After all, this is a low period for English football.

Who makes Sean like to throw money at people? He really has no interest in wasting several years on an acquisition project.

To put it bluntly, it costs hundreds of thousands per minute!

Ever since the two reached an agreement, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became cheerful.

The British economy has been in severe recession in recent years. With these 10 million, the Smith family's business will see a turnaround, which is the main reason why he chose to agree.

After all, clubs don't bring wealth.

Sean

He was not in a hurry to sign the transfer agreement with Smith. He just wanted to make a verbal agreement first. He didn't want to alarm the Hillwood family too early.

He still remembered that when Kroenke acquired Arsenal in his previous life, Hillwood once publicly laughed at him, "We don't need people like him. It's simply unimaginable that a Yankee would dare to try to make money from an English football club!"

Sean wants to get the scattered stocks outside first, at least more than 30%.

After leaving the court, Smith, as a local leader, naturally wanted to entertain Sean. Of course, more importantly, he wanted to get closer to Sean.

The person who has risen the fastest in the past ten years, is a super rich man and has a prominent family. A little bit of skin crumbs leaking out of Sean's hands is enough for Smith to eat.

Especially when Sean behaved so generously.

After learning that Sean wanted to become the majority shareholder of Arsenal, Smith took it upon himself to help Sean contact some local small shareholders in London.

Danny Fishman, Olufruth Mendoza, Aku Wilkerson...

Even Sean, a super rich man with a Rockefeller aura, still had two small shareholders who looked at each other with different noses and faces when they met.

It is as if it is a great shame to sell out the shares of the British Football Club to the Yankees.

Open your mouth for honor, shut up for tradition, and turn to centuries-old beliefs at every turn, fully demonstrating the arrogance of the British.

Sean felt like he was very poor.

Of course, all this collapsed on the spot under Sean's money-spending offensive.

In just five days, all the share transfer agreements were finalized, and Sean won 35% of Arsenal shares in one fell swoop.

When the matter has reached this point, it can no longer be concealed, although Sean has been collecting shares as quickly as possible.

An American suddenly acquired shares in an English football club. The news was as if a nuclear bomb had been detonated directly in London.

The crowd is excited!

Arrogance is not unique to the British wealthy class. The entire British society is the same.

Especially in the field of football, the English have always regarded themselves as the inventors of football, the world's largest sport, and their pride is engraved in their bones.

The entrance of the hotel where I checked in was already blocked by reporters who came in droves, which affected the normal business of the hotel.

But the hotel could do nothing to deal with this group of uncrowned kings. Not only did it not dare to expel them, it also required the hotel to provide money and effort to entertain them.

This is not an era in which everyone in the future has channels to have sex. In the current society, you will not even be given a chance to defend yourself if you are blackmailed by the media.

The reporter was really arrogant.

For this situation, the hotel had to contact Sean.

…

"Mr. Sean, it's really, really, really not going to work. You must hold a press conference." The general manager of the hotel looked sad and was about to kneel down to Sean.

"Why doesn't it work? The Germans are attacking again?" Sean looked at the hotel manager with a half-smile.

"It's more serious than this!" The hotel manager rushed to the window in three steps at a time, pointing outside and said: "It's not just the reporters, but mainly the angry fans outside, Mr. Sean."

"Look, two nearby streets have been completely blocked by angry fans. Although the police are trying their best to maintain order, more than 80 fan fights have occurred in just a few hours, and many people have been injured."

Sean???

No, what the hell is a fan fight?

Sean walked to the window and looked out. The streets were densely packed with people, like ants.

Facing Sean's question, the hotel manager had a strange look on his face. He coughed lightly and then said: "It's mainly Tottenham fans who laugh at Arsenal fans."

"Scoffing?" Sean spread his hands to express his incomprehension.

…

On the street below, fans of Arsenal's arch-rival Tottenham gathered and jeered loudly at the Arsenal fans: "Hey, ***, Arsenal has been bought by the Yankees!"

"beautiful

National Arsenal!”

"Ha ha ha ha!"

One sentence can make Arsenal fans' eyes red and they charge like angry bulls.

A chaotic fight ensued!

As an English fan, it is a great shame and shame for the team to be bought by the Yankees!

This is a true blasphemy against the fans’ beliefs!

It's like Koreans shouting at you that Yue Fei suddenly became Korean, and this was recognized by the United Nations.

Tottenham fans not only laughed at it, but also made it into a song and sang it loudly on the spot, with live dancing.

Murder and heart-wrenching!

…

"Shouting to Arsenal fans that the Yankees are buying Arsenal is more outrageous than pointing your nose at your mother and scolding her?" Sean heard the hotel manager's explanation, and the veins on his forehead jumped. Damn it, what do you mean?

Doesn’t this mean that your name is like a horse made of grass and mud?

This is so insulting!

Sean was so angry on the spot that he didn't even know who to vent his anger on.

Turning his head and looking at the hotel manager, Sean suddenly asked: "Then whose fan are you?"
