As soon as Case sat down and picked up the chopsticks, his phone rang. He took out and saw that it was Matt Damon and connected:

"Hello?"

An excited voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Case, are you really going to acquire Arsenal?"

Case scooped some rice and put it in a bowl:

"Well, I have this plan, but I have a question to ask you."

"Yeah, you ask."

"Kroenke's shares are only 23%. Why do you say that his shares are almost half?"

Matt Damon on the other end of the phone was also a little confused:

"Is it less than half? I saw the news that Fesman and Mrs. Smith sold the shares to him!"

Keyes felt speechless:

"Plan, what the news says is planning. Do you understand what planning means?"

"Uh, understand."

"I ask you again, he has not obtained the management rights of Arsenal. How do you know that he is stingy and can't invest?"

Matt Damon is a little puzzled about this question:

"Apart from those rich or specialty, aren't the other sports industry bosses in the United States like this?

Kroenke's stinginess is famous here, and Arsenal and others are blinded by his beauty."

Case rolled her eyes and sighed:

"Matt, remember to be realistic in the future and don't tell your guesses."

Although you guessed it right!

"You don't know that I had planned to acquire a Premier League team, but when you said that when Arsenal shares were more than halfway through, I almost gave up and chose other teams.

If I hadn't checked today, I would have probably been on the road to acquiring Liverpool."

After saying that, Case hung up the phone directly. Matt Damon was a little uneasy when he listened to the busy voice on the phone and muttered:

"It seems to be angry."

But the next moment he grinned:

"What if he doesn't matter, the result is good."

Now he is already imagining the scene where Case invests 200 million yuan every year and Arsenal is defeating all sides in the transfer market.

After the news of Case was spread, the first thing he knew was that he was in Kroenke, London. When he learned the news, it was around 4 a.m. on the 22nd.

The time difference in London is eight hours faster than that of Los Angeles, so he learned the news in just one hour.

Although he is in London and Case's Internet company business has not yet developed into America, his basic foundation is in America.

"Okay, I get it."

Kroenke's face was gloomy and Keith suddenly wanted to intervene. This was very bad news for him, which meant that he had lost the opportunity to get Arsenal.

He couldn't stand the ten financial resources of Case's casual wave.

There are three main business items: the first is a sports club and a stadium, the second is to develop real estate, and the third is the surrounding business he got from Walmart at the beginning.

Needless to say, the second item is how real estate is now, which everyone knows.

In the first item, although he entered NBA and NFL much earlier than Case, his connections are really not as good as Case. Who made Case the most background and the most powerful?

First of all, if Case and him have to sacrifice one, he must sacrifice it, then he will definitely sacrifice it, and there is no doubt about this.

And on the boss's side, he may be able to compete with NFL, just forget about NBA.

Lakers boss, Celtic boss, Mavericks boss, Trail Blazers boss and other capable bosses are all friends of Case.

The Lakers boss is because of Jerry West, the Celtic boss is because of Case's study at Harvard, the Mavericks boss is said to have introduced Case to the NBA, and the Trail Blazers boss is because of Microsoft.

With Jerry West's connections in the league, he has no doubt that once a conflict occurs, his Nuggets will probably have more than half of the housekeepers left in the next moment.

The Lakers and Celtics are all over the league. By the way, there is also a Spurs, and the Spurs and the Rockets are both Texas teams.

NFL is actually weak, not too strong, and one Cowboys boss Jerry Jones beats several of his allies.

But these are not the most important ones, the third one is the most important one.

Case is a major shareholder of Walmart and a major shareholder with all rights, and his background is the Walton family.

Moreover, Case and Robert Walton have a good relationship, so who bows his head after the conflict?

After the mediation fails, it must be him, the "personal person" who bows his head!

"Fake!"

It is actually relatively easy for Americans to enter the English Football League, but it is difficult to control a top football club in England.

He finally waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which made him feel a little unwilling to give up.

Kroenke's eyes flashed so hard that he didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he sighed. What else could he do?

He suddenly remembered when he was young, when Sam Walton had not passed away, and he admired him more. If he had no ability, he would not be able to develop even if Walton was behind him.

And he just remembered the conversation between the two back then.

Sam Walton asked him: "What do you think is the most important thing for a businessman?"

He thought for a while and replied, "Precaution?"

Sam Walton nodded and shook his head:

"The interests do require no compromise, but they also depend on the person. When you meet the right person, you must give in when you need to give in.

For a businessman, the most important thing is connections and relationships. Once you have connections and relationships, you can get the little benefits you gave up at the beginning a hundred times a thousand times."

It took him a long time since he remembered what he agreed with, but now because of Case, he remembered him again.

Cronx thought for a while, then called some people, and since he wanted to do it, he should do it to the end.

———

Kroenke was the first to learn that Case was interested in Arsenal, but others were only a little slower than him.

For example, club chairman Hillwood seemed a little surprised after learning the news. He couldn't figure out where this jumped out of Case.

However, he still knows some of Case's famous reputation, so he has a headache.

He represents local people in England. When these foreign capitals come in, they squeeze their living space and interests, and they will be the emperor and the ministers!

So when Kroenk was about to enter, he tried hard to stop him, but Dunn pulled Usmanov, a Russian, which changed the situation.

After Abraham took control of Arsenal, the Chelsea shareholders behind him had been ridiculed by the English upper class.

In addition, Kroenke kept lobbying the people behind him, so they stood with Kroenke again.

Although there are interests in this, they are more willing to be controlled by an American than being controlled by a Russian club.

What's more, Kroenk also "promised" them and returned their shares after driving Usmanov away.

Although they knew that this was 80% untrustworthy, there were 20% not, and at the least they could be exchanged for money.

But Case is a tiger. Even if they are all together, they will probably not be able to stop Case.

But this is going to be in America, not elsewhere, Arsenal is in England.

Although he felt a little weak, he felt that he was not without the power to resist. The idea he had always agreed with was that only resistance and struggle could bring more benefits.

He obviously didn't know what Case said in his previous tweet, otherwise he wouldn't be so optimistic.

Hillwood thought for a while, and then called his confidant:

"You go and arrange people and secretly spread news among the fans, saying that Kess Dutton is going to turn Arsenal into his private toy and don't expose our identities."

"OK."

Kroenke is different from Keith. He dare not mock him on the surface, but it is still possible to do some tricks in secret.

And Case will definitely know all this, which will let Case know that if you want to acquire Arsenal, you must deal with him.

———

While making arrangements at Hillwood, Wenger, who was sleeping, also received a call from Kroenke.

Wenger was also one of the people who supported Kroenke at the beginning, and Kroenke called him not because Wenger was his supporter.

But he knows who is really important to Arsenal, and he thinks there are only two, one Dunn and the other Wenger.

That's why he called Wenger. Since he must support Case in acquiring Arsenal, he naturally wants to expand this favor.

"Hello?"

"Sorry, Mr. Wenger, clean until you have a rest."
