The joy on Wu Lei's face disappeared in a flash, and then he showed a hint of hesitation. He said, "There is a saying on the Internet that the Jade Muscle Ointment and the Heart Nourishing Soup were developed by Boss Xia. Some people say that Boss Xia's level of Chinese medicine is very high. However, there are many people who hold the opposite view. After all, Boss Xia is so young … "
In fact, the rumors on the Internet were not groundless. After all, Xia Ruofei had treated many people, and there were many people who knew that his medical skills were good. Although this kind of news was mostly circulated in the upper circle, it was inevitable that some people would spread it on the Internet.
Zhou Leiyun had a good relationship with Zhao Yongjun. Although he did not know that Xia Ruofei could even cure cancer, he at least knew that Xia Ruofei's attainments in Chinese medicine were very high, and he was very sure that the Heart Nourishing Soup and the Jade Muscle Ointment were mainly developed by Xia Ruofei.
Therefore, after listening to Wu Lei's words, Zhou Leiyun said with a smile, "Wu Lei, I can tell you responsibly that Boss Xia's level of Chinese medicine is very high. Since he said so, he must have a certain degree of certainty. You can consider Boss Xia's suggestion carefully."
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Director Zhou, you have so much confidence in me? What if I'm bragging? Wu Lei won't be able to play this season. It will be a great loss for you and the club! "
Zhou Leiyun spread his hands and said, "You are also one of the club's shareholders! It's not just me who will lose! "
Wu Lei could not help but be speechless. In fact, after listening to Zhou Leiyun's words, he was already excited. After all, he would only miss one round of the league tournament in a week. He still had at least seven or eight more rounds before the end of the league tournament. Moreover, if he could completely solve the problem of his shoulder joint injury, it would also be good for his condition.
After all, although he could play now, he would always be worried about injuring his shoulder joint again. There would be a certain psychological shadow, and naturally, it would be impossible to fully perform his technical actions.
However, as soon as Zhou Leiyun finished speaking, he immediately joked with Xia Ruofei.
For these two big bosses, this loss was naturally nothing, but it was different for him!
He was already 27 years old this year. Every game of football was very precious to him. If he could not play football this season, he would have to wait until the new league season in September to start.
Under such circumstances, Wu Lei was actually more inclined to undergo surgery after the end of the season.
Xia Ruofei saw Wu Lei's conflicted expression and said with a smile, "Wu Lei, since I made this suggestion, of course, I have some confidence. I am also a shareholder of the club. I can't sacrifice the interests of the players for no reason, right? Moreover, you are now a benchmark in Huaxia's soccer! Your influence is also very important to the club. I won't joke about this kind of thing. "
At this point, Xia Ruofei paused and said, "Of course, the final decision is still up to you."
Wu Lei nodded gratefully and said, "I understand. I will seriously consider it. Thank you, Boss Xia! I … still need to discuss it with my family, so I can't give an answer right away … "
"I understand!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Come, come, come! Have another drink! "
After that, they did not talk about sad things anymore. They just ate and drank while chatting. In a foreign country, there was a special sense of intimacy between compatriots. Although Xia Ruofei and Zhou Leiyun were both Wu Lei's bosses, the two of them did not put on airs. Wu Lei gradually let go of his reservations and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.
After dinner, Zhou Leiyun and Xia Ruofei made an appointment to go to the RCD Espanyol tomorrow to handle the relevant paperwork for the transfer of shares. Then they said goodbye and went back. He bought a manor in Barcelona and could live there for almost a month a year.
Xia Ruofei and Wu Lei went back to their rooms to rest.
After Xia Ruofei went back to his room, he first went to the bathroom to take a shower. After changing into a loose bathrobe, he sat on the sofa in the living room and turned on his mobile phone. He asked about everyone's situation in the WeChat group.
After all, this was a foreign country and they were unfamiliar with the place. Since he had brought these employees out, he had to be responsible for them.
Dong Yun replied to Xia Ruofei in the group. She and the employees were still hanging out. The nightlife in Barcelona was also very rich. For the young girls and boys, everything here was very fresh.
Xia Ruofei did not ask for too much. He just reminded everyone to pay attention to their safety.
With the people sent by Zhou Leiyun accompanying them, there would not be any problems under normal circumstances. Although the security in Europe was not as good as in China, Barcelona was still good.
…
The next day, Xia Ruofei and his employees still split up.
Zhou Leiyun sent two subordinates who were familiar with the situation in Barcelona to accompany Dong Yun and the others. Xia Ruofei went to the RCD Espanyol.
It just so happened that Wu Lei also had to go to training, so the two of them left the hotel together in the commercial car sent by the club.
The hotel was not too far from the club's training base. It was about seven or eight kilometers, which was a ten-minute drive.
Soon, Xia Ruofei saw the blue outer wall of the RCD Espanyol's training base from afar. A huge white team emblem was inlaid on the wall, as well as the words "Real Espanyol Football Club" in Spanish.
Wu Lei sat next to Xia Ruofei. He introduced, "Boss Xia, this training base is called the Danijal Training Base. It was named in honor of the legendary captain of the RCD Espanyol, Danijal, who died in 2009."
Xia Ruofei looked at the bronze statue of Danijal, nodded, and said, "I heard that the fans still maintain the tradition of applause in the 21st minute of the game to commemorate this legendary captain?"
"Yes! Danijal wore the number 21 jersey for RCD Espanyol, "Wu Lei said." Boss Xia, the football atmosphere here is really great! I like playing here! "
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Then train hard. I hope you can play as the main force as soon as possible!"
"Yes! Thank you for your kind words! "Wu Lei said.
The car drove into the training base. Xia Ruofei sat in the car and looked around. He found that the Danijal Training Base was a little small. Although the facilities were relatively professional, the place was a little small for a top league team.
Wu Lei had strength training in the morning, so when the car drove to the training room, he got out of the car. Xia Ruofei sat in front of a small building, which was the RCD Espanyol's office building.
Zhou Leiyun had already arrived at the building and was waiting. A man in his thirties stood next to him. This was Zhou Leiyun's spokesperson at the RCD Espanyol, Jiang Xiaochen.
In addition to Zhou Leiyun and Jiang Xiaochen, the RCD Espanyol's management was also there to welcome them.
These managers and directors had been notified by Zhou Leiyun yesterday that a part of Zhou Leiyun's shares had been transferred to a boss who was also from Huaxia. They were a little nervous. After all, the RCD Espanyol was a team that had been hovering near the relegation line for a long time in La Liga. Zhou Leiyun suddenly reduced his shares, and they did not know if the club's subsequent management strategy would change.
This season's La Liga rankings were very chaotic. Although the RCD Espanyol was currently in the middle, it was not far away from the European zone. At the same time, it was not far away from the relegation zone. It was not impossible for the team to be relegated if there was a slight mishap. If the boss reduced his investment and caused the people to change their minds, the team might collapse at the end of the season.
When the club's management saw the young Xia Ruofei get out of the car alone, they were still muttering in their hearts. A transfer of tens of millions of euros in shares, and the club's new shareholder did not even bring a legal counsel with him …
But while they were still in a daze, Zhou Leiyun had already walked up quickly to greet him and greeted him very warmly.
When the management saw that the rich Huaxia boss's attitude was so polite, they naturally did not dare to be negligent and went up to greet him one after another.
After Zhou Leiyun exchanged a few words with Xia Ruofei, he introduced him to the management of the RCD Espanyol club, and Jiang Xiaochen personally acted as a translator.
Jiang Xiaochen studied abroad in Spain in his early years and obtained a master's degree in sports management. He had work experience in many clubs in Spain. Later, after Zhou Leiyun bought the RCD Espanyol club, he recruited Jiang Xiaochen to work under a headhunting company.
Jiang Xiaochen also had an advantage working here, and that was, the place where he studied abroad was also the Catalan region of Spain, so he had no problem listening, speaking, reading, and writing in Catalan.
Catalan was also the official language of Spain. Compared to standard Spanish, it was like Huaxia's Mandarin and Cantonese. People who only knew Spanish could understand some of the meaning when they heard Catalan, but there were still certain obstacles if they wanted to communicate normally.
The RCD Espanyol club was a long-established club in the Catalan region. Many of the staff, including many of the players, were actually from the Catalan region. The language they communicated in was naturally Catalan.
Jiang Xiaochen's proficiency in Catalan was naturally of great help to his work.
Xia Ruofei had a polite and reserved smile on his face. He shook hands with the management of the club one by one, and then walked into the office building accompanied by Zhou Leiyun.
The management of the club returned to their respective positions to work — they only participated in the greeting to show the importance of the club.
Zhou Leiyun and Jiang Xiaochen accompanied Xia Ruofei to an office. The legal counsel had prepared all the documents that needed to be signed, and also took Xia Ruofei's passport to make a few copies.
After Xia Ruofei signed the documents, he handed them to the legal counsel together with the copy of his passport. He did not need to participate in the rest of the matters personally. Professionals would go to the official registration, filing, and so on.
The RCD Espanyol club was not listed, so the transfer of shares was relatively simple. However, with the work efficiency in Europe, it was estimated that it would take at least five days to a week.
But in fact, Xia Ruofei was now a shareholder of the RCD Espanyol club, because the person who transferred the shares to him was Zhou Leiyun. There could not be any changes in the whole process.
Then, Zhou Leiyun asked Jiang Xiaochen to summon the club's shareholders and management to the meeting room. Even the First Team's manager, Ruby, was called over. He was also a very important part of the club. Naturally, he could not be absent from such a major change in the club's shares.
After everyone had arrived, Zhou Leiyun accompanied Xia Ruofei into the conference room.
Xia Ruofei had a faint smile on his face. He glanced around and felt that everyone's expressions were different. They were probably a little nervous.
After the two sat down, Zhou Leiyun said, "I believe everyone understands that I have transferred about half of my shares to Mr. Xia Ruofei. From today onwards, Mr. Xia Ruofei will become a shareholder of the RCD Espanyol club, holding 25% of the club's shares! Next, let's invite Boss Xia to speak! "
After Jiang Xiaochen translated Zhou Leiyun's words, there was a warm applause in the conference room. Everyone looked at the young new shareholder of the club.
Xia Ruofei waited for the applause to subside before he said with a smile, "Thank you for everyone's enthusiasm! I need to make it clear that this is only one of my many investments. I don't have more energy to pay attention to the daily operations of the club. Therefore, when I transferred my shares, I also signed an agreement with General Manager Zhou to act in concert. I also gave the voting rights of my shares to General Manager Zhou. "
Xia Ruofei paused for a moment and waited for Jiang Xiaochen to finish translating his words before he continued, "So, Mr. Zhou Leiyun will still be the chairman of the RCD Espanyol club. The daily operations of the club will continue as usual. You don't have to worry about any drastic changes."
After the shareholders, management, and manager Ruby in the conference room heard Xia Ruofei's words, they suddenly felt relieved. They were worried that the club would undergo drastic changes. If the team was relegated, it would be a disaster. The number of fans in Barcelona was already less than Barça. If they were relegated to Segunda División, it would be one disaster after another.
Xia Ruofei continued, "Before I came, I learned about the situation of the RCD Espanyol club and paid attention to this season's standings. At present, the RCD Espanyol team is ranked 15th, 11 points more than the relegation zone, but only 12 points away from the European zone. It can be said that it is one step from heaven and one step from hell.
However, the subsequent competition schedule is still more favorable for us. We don't encounter too many strong teams. If we play well, it is impossible to rush into the European zone. This requires the joint efforts of everyone present! What we can do is to provide protection for everyone!
General Manager Zhou and I have a consensus. We hope that the RCD Espanyol club will return to the European competition as soon as possible. I think there is hope this season! If the team can rush into the Europa League this season, even if it is only the qualifiers, the bonus will definitely satisfy everyone. Next season, we will also increase our recruitment efforts to keep the team strong and competitive! "
After Xia Ruofei's words were translated by Jiang Xiaochen, everyone in the conference room showed a hint of surprise. Even Zhou Leiyun looked at Xia Ruofei with some surprise.
