Although Zheng Jiaxuan's polite refusal made Yang Cheng feel a little disappointed, he still couldn't escape his expectations.

Maybe Zheng Jiaxuan is not clear yet. He already knows his background a little bit, especially his recent actions at Hua Hin. At the critical moment when he mobilizes all his money to acquire Polar Bear National Petroleum Co., Ltd., he has set aside some funds to acquire the oil storage business. Yang Cheng himself would not have done this.

However, before Zheng Jiaxuan finished speaking, hesitated for a while, and said reluctantly, "However, I can't say that it doesn't fit my principles in life. I have a small profit here, and I don't know if you are interested."

Yang Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, but unexpectedly there was an unexpected gain. He stood up and took a listening attitude, "Of course I'm interested. Lao Zheng, your gift will definitely not be small."

At the same time, he was also speculating whether this "unexpected" gift would be related to the mysterious boss behind Zheng Jiaxuan.

As we all know, Hua Hin's mystery is just like the mysterious Bermuda Triangle, but no one can clear the fog and see through the truth. Even Yang Cheng's resources are now mastered, but he has only heard a few more legends than ordinary people.

But the most credible statement at present is that the Hua Hin boss is a descendant of a marshal. In order to avoid strong competition with domestic leading companies, the Hua Hin boss has established solid high-level business relations at home and abroad, especially oil terminals and important oil-producing countries, and focuses on investing in upstream oil and gas equity in Central Asia, the Middle East and Africa.

Currently, it has more than 1,000 gas stations and oil depots in the Black Sea and Mediterranean regions such as Spain and France. As early as two years ago, it established a European headquarters in the Czech Republic to facilitate overseas investment matters.

This statement is relatively reliable, otherwise it would not be possible to explain why the boss rose so suddenly, let alone how he maintained this mystery. It is impossible to do without a senior background. Those who really started from scratch were on the list of major rich people, and they were almost all on it.

However, no matter how mysterious Hua Hin is, Yang Cheng does not intend to have too much interaction with the other party. It is better not to have some things without getting involved, so it will save you from getting angry.

Zheng Jiaxuan's words made Yang Cheng feel relieved. This gift seems to have nothing to do with Hua Hin's core business.

"Recently, my friend has made a series of investments in the Czech Republic. The acquisition negotiations for TravelService (TS), the largest travel service company in Czech Republic, went smoothly. It will be announced soon that TS also holds nearly one-third of the shares of the second largest airline in Czech Republic. This investment will greatly increase the share price of TS. Brother Yang and Prince William may wish to invest some spare money if you are interested."

Yang Cheng was disappointed. Zheng Jiaxuan said so mysteriously. He thought it was something amazing. He didn't expect it to be just some insider information. Did he and William lack the source of information?

Maybe because of drinking alcohol, my self-control was greatly reduced, and the disappointed expression on my face was clearly visible.

Unfortunately, this expression was not finished by the other person. Zheng Jiaxuan, who was rushing to eat vegetables and suppress the alcohol, saw it, otherwise he would have to make up for it.

Hesitantly and drunk, Zheng Jiaxuan simply stayed in the castle and left again the next day. After sobering up, the two of them seemed to have never talked about anything last night, and they returned to a state of respect for each other again.

After seeing off Zheng Jiaxuan, Yang Cheng was going to fly back to New York, but received a call from Ian Al, so he had to temporarily change the route and transfer to Liverpool.

In the morning, it was rainy and rainy in Liverpool. Yang Cheng wore an orange project. Accompanied by staff and bodyguards such as Ian Al and others, they boarded the construction site being expanded in Anfield.

"Boss, the expansion of Anfield main stands took months and is expected to be officially completed half a month before the start of the new season. At that time, we will invite many celebrities including Reds legend Robbie Fowler, as well as a certain number of Liverpool fans to come to this new stand to watch the internal competition between Liverpool women's football team and U team, which is a preview for the arrival of the new season's Premier League match." Ian Al pointed to the main stand who was doing his homework with the help of the crane and introduced.

Yang Cheng kept frowning with a canopy in his hand, and asked with concern, "The weather in Liverpool is not very good recently. The rain may greatly delay the progress of the project? Moreover, the safety of the construction workers is not guaranteed."

Ian Al explained with a smile, "Boss, don't worry, the damn weather in the UK has always been like this, and everyone is used to it. There is a set of procedures for how to work on rainy days. We also consider the impact of rainy days, which has extended the construction period. Otherwise, one and a half months of this project will be enough to complete. We have consulted with the meteorological department. In the future, there will be good weather for nearly half a month. We will step up the use of this rare exposed sun to complete the work, and will never delay the team's new season's game."

Hearing that Ian Al was confident, Yang Cheng calmed down. If someone died because of the construction, he would always feel a little disgusted.

This expansion was planned long before Yang Cheng took over, and it was divided into two phases. The first phase currently underway can add about 8,500 seats to Liverpool's home court, making the total number of seats on the stadium reach 54,000.

In addition to the added seats in the main stand, some other on-site facilities within Anfield Stadium including bar, elevator and player entrance will be updated.

After two consecutive invitations to conduct surveys and investigations online, everyone generally praised the expansion project of the main stand. It is really an old Anfield and cannot meet the needs of the increasing number of fans. Expansion is imperative.

In fact, in the past ten or even twenty years, insufficient home capacity has always been a major event that has caused the club's headache. As early as the mid-1990s, Liverpool began to gradually purchase properties around Anfield to prepare for the expansion plan at that time. However, due to the difficulty of the expansion project, this plan has been shelved, which has caused economic decline in this area due to vacancy.

After that, the club began to consider finding a new location. In 2000, Liverpool announced that it would move to Stanley Park Stadium. This plan was approved by the city ZF. However, after the US boss Hicks and Gillet took over, the team was in a debt crisis due to poor management and financing. The funding gap of £10 million caused the plan to build a new stadium to abort again. It was not until 2001 that Fenway Group decided to return to the plan to expand rather than build a new stadium.

And after fully considering the needs of the team and the opinions of the fans, the plan is still quite clever. In order to avoid affecting the fans' normal viewing of the game, Liverpool has arranged the expanded part above and behind the original main stand. After most of the projects are completed, it only takes another offseason to renovate the original lower seats. The expanded main stand will become one of the largest full seat stands in Europe, including about 1,000 seats.

So far, the construction cost of the new stand has reached 75 million pounds, and there are 40 million pounds of other expenses, which is only part of the entire project. In the future second phase of the project, the stand on the Anfield Road side will add 4,800 seats. It is expected that the total cost will reach 600 million pounds after the completion of all expansion projects.

The investment was a bit big. At the beginning, Yang Cheng was very hesitant. Anyway, he spent almost 100 million pounds. Why not add more points and find a new site directly to build a larger and newer Anfield?

Later, Ian Al settled the bill for Yang Cheng, and then decided to agree to the expansion project.

According to Ian Al's forecast, the added 8,500 seats will bring an additional £0 million in race day revenue, which will increase after the 4,800 seats in the second phase of the project are completed.

In addition, the club is also actively seeking title sponsors for the main stands, which is estimated to bring about 5 million pounds per year. After the expansion, Anfield will also be qualified to host a large-scale event like the 2000 European Cup. These additional income plus the broadcast share of the Premier League's significant increase in the next few seasons, this expansion project will not only not put too much pressure on the club's finances, but also do not need to wait too long to recover the money, and will even generate unexpected profits.

A very important point among this is the ticket agreement between the club and the company's customers. A rough estimate is that if there is a home game in a season, the average ticket price per seat per game needs to reach 107 pounds to achieve the £0 million income target. Comparing the average ticket price of Liverpool's average of £6 per game last season and the average ticket price of up to £77 last season, this seems an impossible task.

But the income brought by receiving customers from large companies will directly offset two-thirds of the cost. This is the reality. Compared with ordinary fans, top clubs including Manchester United, they are actively contacting cooperation with major companies. With the big money and casual publicity activities of these multinational companies, the price of tickets paid is enough to offset the contribution of ordinary fans in the stands.

Therefore, Red Army fans always complain that they cannot buy tickets. This is the club's unscrupulous approach to making a profit. However, this phenomenon will be greatly alleviated with the completion of the expansion of the new stands. It not only meets the needs of large customers, but also does not make ordinary fans who spend money to buy tickets sad, killing two birds with one stone.

Besides, the expansion of the stadium is not only exclusive to Liverpool. Now the attendance rate of the Premier League is above 95% all year round. Expansion or new stadium has been put on the agenda of many mid-to-high-rise teams in the Premier League.

But this is still a risky investment. After all, the accident is unpredictable. Arsenal once suffered nearly 10 years of repayment pressure due to the 470 million pound investment of Emirates Stadium. The occurrence of the subprime mortgage crisis hit its original Highbury house selling strategy, which indirectly led to the team's helplessness in the transfer market, which led to the team's failure to win for many years.
