Football Giants

Rs corporate office in Manhattan, New York, USA.

Real estate tycoon Stephen Rose led the assistant team, squeaked open the door of the conference room, and walked in one after another.

This made Matt Higgins and Charlie Stilitano sitting inside a little bit at a loss, their eyes showed surprises, and they obviously felt the atmosphere was abnormal.

Usually Stephen Ross came to the rs company, either alone or with a bodyguard, but rarely like today, not only with the bodyguard, but also with his personal lawyer, and the most powerful person beside him Accountant.

What does it mean?

Could it be that he is here to check all the debts and bills of the rs company?

Matt Higgins looked at Charlie Stillitano, as if asking, is this doubting us?

Charlie Stilitano raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head, saying that he would wait and see what happened.

As soon as Stephen Rose walked into the conference room, he sat down in the upper position, the lawyer and the accountant sat on his left and right sides, which happened to separate Matt Higgins and Charlie Stirita. promise.

This made the latter two obviously offended.

I said it was a partner, but what does it mean to do it now?

&; I'm here, you are looking for me in such a hurry, what's the matter, now you can say! &;

Stephen Rose chuckled lightly, and behind the gold-rimmed glasses, those slender eyes were shrewd.

Matt Higgins glanced at Charlie Stilitano, who nodded, indicating that he could start.

So Matt Higgins coughed heavily, &; That’s it, Stephen, in order to prepare for the North American Invitational, we rented hotels, training grounds and courts for each participating team, and we just paid. Period, according to the terms of the contract we signed at that time, after the event, we should...&;

Before Matt Higgins had finished saying this, Stephen Rose raised his hand.

&; Matt, I understand what you mean. Since the contract was signed at the time, we should act according to the contract. I think, this kind of thing shouldn't need to ask me, right?&;

Matt Higgins and Charlie Tillitano suddenly realized that this matter is very tricky.

&;But, Stephen, our income has been paid to Chelsea, Milan and other teams' appearance fees, as well as the expenses in the preparatory stage of the previous competition, and it has been...&;

Matt Higgins's meaning is already very clear, that is, the company has no money!

Stephen Rose laughed when he heard this, &;what did the bank say?&;

&; Several of the funds we borrowed in the past few years have not been repaid, I am afraid that no bank is willing to lend us any more! &;

&;Then you mean...&;

Matt Higgins is still young, inexperienced, and some can't say it.

Charlie Stilitano has also been in the American sports industry for many years.The reason why rs' previous North American Invitational was able to invite so many European giants to participate is all due to his relationship and operation.

Usually, this type of person has a thicker skin.

So, seeing Matt Higgins unable to speak, he took it.

&; Stephen, what we said before, the preparations for the competition will definitely be at a loss in the first few years. No competition can make money from the beginning, not even the FIFA Club World Cup. You promise, you will be responsible! &;

This is also a key part of their cooperation with Stephen Rose!

After all, the three people are a combination of interests, and they are not completely monolithic.

After listening to Stephen Rose, he also nodded, &; Yes, you are right, but what you two told me at the time was that at most five years, this event can be self-sufficient, and even slightly profitable, but What now?&;

Charlie Stillitano and Matt Higgins looked at each other, and both felt the helplessness in each other's eyes.

There is a saying that is well said, poor and lowly couples are sad.

When the company exhibits well, everything is easy to say and solve, but now the company encounters problems, all contradictions immediately surfaced.

Last year was a little better, after all, the situation last year was not bad, but this year it was completely finished.

Because the schedule of the North American Invitational overlaps with the schedule of the International Champions Cup to a large extent, as a result, the attendance rate of all the matches of the North American Invitational is less than 70,000 people, which is not enough for the average attendance of the International Champions Cup. .

Thinking about it makes people want to scold their mother, because the difference is too big!

Only Charlie Stillitano and Matt Higgins understand that, in the final analysis, the operation team of the International Champions Cup is too good, and they have invested real money to invite the top European giants to participate. It has a very high market appeal.

In this case, the rational approach for the North American Invitational should be to avoid the edge, adjust the schedule, and miss the International Champions Cup.After all, people have worked out the schedule as early as February, and they obviously want to tell you and avoid me.

But at the beginning, Stephen Rose opposed all opinions and determined not to reschedule, and must follow the international Champions Cup needle-point to Maimang.

It's all right now, is it a complete failure?

Charlie Stilitano felt very helpless, because Stephen Rose's tone was obviously to blame the two of them, and it was obvious that the responsibility for the losses in the North American Invitational was to be placed on them.

But what can they do?

&; Ok, Stephen, what do you think now?&;

&;What else can I think?&;Stephen Rose is funny,&;We have a total of two to three billion in debt, and now there are creditors catching up, or, our three shareholders are in proportion to the shares. Invest another sum of money, but whether it will continue to operate next year, this has to be discussed separately. &;

&; Or we all pat our buttocks and hand this mess to the court to clean up, what should we do, have fun and be at ease! &;

Charlie Stilitano couldn't listen anymore, and he stood up, &; Are you going to declare bankruptcy and dissolve the company?&;

&;How about?&; Stephen Rose asked rhetorically.

The grief and indignation on Charlie Stillitano's face was also unbelievable by Matt Higgins and it was difficult to accept.

They are different from Stephen Rose, who is only responsible for paying the money, but they have invested a lot of effort and energy in this company. If they declare bankruptcy and dissolve the company now, it is not only their reputation that is discredited, they may be burdened by it. Some debts and legal liabilities.

If one doesn't handle it well, their contacts in the sports world may be offended, and don't expect to continue to mix in this circle from now on.

&; Charlie! &;Stephen Rose looked at Charlie Stilitano,&;Let’s just open the skylight and speak up. I even brought you people here. Just be quick! &;

&; I am very, very dissatisfied with the organization and operation of this year's North American Invitational. Compared with last year, not only has there been no progress, but on the contrary, I am going back. I have signed new sponsorship contracts for the International Champions Cup every year, and the broadcast area is also more and more. The more it comes, the greater the influence, but what about us?&;

Charlie Stillitano and Matt Higgins were speechless.

&; No one cares about the broadcasting rights. The sponsors also run away one by one. Our current income in this area is pitifully small, so the loss is getting more and more serious. Tell me, how long will it last?& ;

No one can answer this question.

But Charlie Stillitano and Matt Higgins, who are in charge of attracting investment, are depressed, because many things are not caused by their problems, just like broadcasting rights.

You have to arrange the schedule to overlap with the International Champions Cup, the result is good, how can other TV stations broadcast two different football matches at the same time?

The final result is definitely between the two, choose the most popular event for live broadcast!

Ever since, everyone has chosen the International Champions Cup. Even if you can speak, what can you do?

This is true for broadcasters, and so are sponsors?

When is the schedule arranged? For an event, it is very important!

I haven't seen how much work has been done to arrange the FIFA Club World Cup in December? How many years have been coordinated?

Stephen Rose saw that neither of them were talking, he shook his head and sighed and sneered.

&; I personally understand that it is difficult and not easy for you to make this decision. You have put a lot of effort into this event, but you must understand that this is not about feelings, we are discussing a company The operation is capital operation! &;

When Stephen Rose said this, he sighed heavily and then stood up.

&; Well, I am a major shareholder, this matter is up to me to decide, I have the final say! &;

Charlie Stillitano and Matt Higgins looked at each other, both panicked.

It seems that he has to make this decision today!

&; Although I have been very happy with you in the past few years, and we got along quite happily, but unfortunately, I had to make this decision. Regarding this, if you want to blame me, then I have nothing to do Say! &;

At the end, Stephen Rose gave a sly smile and reached out to button the suit.

&; John, Jack, you will be responsible for everything here, you know how to deal with it! &;

The lawyers and accountants who came with Stephen Rose immediately stood up and nodded to the boss.

Obviously, they are already familiar with doing this kind of thing.

Seeing Stephen Roschran leaving the meeting room, Charlie Stilitano and Matt Higgins seemed to be emptied of their strength.

Because they found that the cause they had been fighting for for many years, in such a short time, because of a word or a decision of others, they completely collapsed, which made them all have a very strong sense of frustration.

The company is going bankrupt, and they will definitely be in debt. What should they do in the future?

What are they going to use to repay these debts?

If the partners of the rs company heard this news, how would they react?

There are also these two people, a lawyer and an accountant.It is obvious that they have to do everything possible to help Stephen Rose avoid debt and reduce the burden as much as possible.

They had heard of such a trick before, but they didn't expect that it would be the case the first time they experienced it.

But if you really want to do this, it will definitely offend a large number of creditors.After that, how can they continue to mix in the sports world?

Thinking of this, the two of them started to hate Stephen Rose in their hearts.

He is a real estate tycoon.Although he has a rugby team, he can offend these people in the sports world.To him, it has no effect at all, but they are different, their careers and contacts are here.

After leaving the sports world, where else can they go?

Could it be that there is really only this way?

Both Charlie Stillitano and Matt Higgins saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

There is nothing they can do about it.

But at this moment, Charlie Stilitano's phone rang untimely.

Unfamiliar number, who?

Charlie Stillitano was a little scared, and glanced at Matt Higgins, who was very sensitive to data, but didn't know the origin of this number, and shook his head.

After that, a man's voice came across.

&;Hello, Mr. Stillitano, I am the executive officer of Miracle Media, my name is Sun Yue! &;
