"Renovate the stadium and Chelsea Village?" Lena thought about it, shook her head and said, "How much will that cost? Now the 42055 seats in the stadium are often not full. There is no need to waste money if we expand the stadium."
"You don't understand. We have to look at it from a long-term perspective. The football market will only become more and more popular. As long as the results go up, the existing seats will not be enough in a few years.
It's better to build it now than in the future. Taking advantage of the current economic downturn, the cost of expansion will be several times lower or even double what it will be in a few years. Spending money now is actually making money. Moreover, as soon as we take over, a large sum of money will be invested to expand the stadium and transform Chelsea Village, which will strengthen the fans' confidence in us. If we want the fans' support and the team's results, we can only use money.
The stadium will be built the best, and the players will depend on the situation. It would be best if we can buy big-name players. If not, then we will continue to spend money on the team's hardware and facilities and build a modern training base. Only with a large investment can we show our ambition, attract good players to join us, and retain the fans' hearts.
Money may not necessarily let us win the championship, but it will increase our chances of winning the championship. I don't want to be like that old man Bezi and be scolded by the fans. If we win the championship, you will receive the trophy on behalf of the Devonshire family.
Think about it, Mom. You will definitely be the most glorious club chairman in the world. "
The assumption of "God" made Lena excited. Her face was full of anticipation, but her happiness did not last long. She shook her head and said, "How many years will it take for us to earn back such a large investment? If the team's results do not improve, then won't we suffer a big loss?"
"This …" William's face twitched. He really admired his mother. She was worthy of being a housekeeper who had been meticulous since childhood. Her change of identity from a fan to a boss was too natural.
The speed was so fast that William could not adapt. "Don't worry, Mom. I promise we won't lose money. You forget that making money is my strength. I made tens of billions in assets in seven or eight months. My vision can't be wrong."
These words calmed the worried Lena down. She looked proud, touched William's head, and said kindly, "Speaking of which, Mom really wants to thank you, my child. Mom never dreamed that our family would buy the Chelsea team. God was good to me. Although he took away my lover, he gave me the best son. William, you are Mom's greatest pride in my life."
"Look at what you're saying, Mom. The one who should be grateful is me. Without you, there would be no me. Now that I can support this family, you can relax and do what you want to do. I'll take care of the rest. You worked hard for me for the first half of your life, so you should enjoy your son's filial piety for the second half of your life."
"Haha, that's right. You have a conscience." William knew how to be filial, which pleased Lena. She said happily, "Well, Mom is not as good as you when it comes to making money. I don't care about these things. You do as you see fit. William, how about I treat all the Chelsea fans to beer and fried chicken in the first game after we take over?"
When his mother was happy, William was happy as well. He smiled and said, "No problem, Mom. As long as you're happy. Making money is to be spent. I've already thought about it. You and my future wife will be responsible for spending money. If the children are girls, they'll be treated the same as you. If they're boys, they'll have to do housework to earn pocket money."
"Haha, William, you're so hateful." Lena was amused by William and gloated. "With a father like you, my grandchildren will definitely be very pitiful in the future. I want to laugh when I think about the pitiful looks of the little guys."
"This." William said awkwardly, "If you want grandchildren, you'll have to wait for many years. I'm not ready to be a father."
"It's okay. Mom is not ready to be a grandmother either." Lena patted William on the shoulder and said kindly, "My child, you've grown up before Mom is ready."
"Cough, cough, cough."
William and Lena turned their heads and saw Gary standing by the stairs.
Gary said apologetically, "Sorry, did I disturb you?"
William and his mother got up from the sofa and smiled at Gary. "It's okay. I'm just chatting with Mom about our daily lives. Do the clothes fit?"
Gary greeted Lena politely, "Thank you, they fit perfectly."
Garris changed into a casual suit from the boutique, which made him look much younger. William jokingly said, "Congratulations, Garris. You look much younger in this outfit than you did before. Your previous fashion sense was too old-fashioned, and you looked too serious and gloomy."
Gary, who had always boasted of being an English gentleman, couldn't stand it when someone doubted his fashion sense. He said angrily, "How good do you think your fashion sense is? You're already a noble, but your fashion sense is still as casual as the nouveau riche in America. Also, please understand that I'm not old to begin with. I'm just in a good mood because I've let go of the burden in my heart."
Lena smiled as she listened to her son arguing with his friend. She shook her head and said, "You guys continue chatting. I'll go see if dinner is ready."
Gary nodded hurriedly, "Thank you, Madam."
After Lena left, Gary sat on the sofa and said, "Your mother is so great. I heard that she stayed single for you. She worked several jobs to support your studies for more than ten years before you became successful. Now, you and your mother can finally live for herself."
"Yes." William glared at Gallas. "What do you mean by that, Gallas? You'd better just be complimenting me and not have any other thoughts."
Gallis looked at William, who had an unfriendly expression on his face. After thinking for a few seconds, he said, "William, you're such a bastard. Why do you always think the worst of others? Don't tell me you're delusional. God, I swear that was just a compliment."
"Alright, I'll believe you for now. But after dinner, get your ass back to London immediately. If you dare come to the castle when I'm not around, I'll drown you in the Thames River." William stared at Gary's eyes and threatened him.
Gary rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Don't worry, I don't have the guts to be your stepfather. I haven't lived long enough. But, hehe."
William was furious when he saw the meaningful expression on Gallas's face. "F.K.U, what kind of expression is that? If you try it again, I promise I'll throw you into the river outside the castle to wake you up."
In the face of the furious William, Gary quickly stopped smiling, but still said, "Just you wait, William. You'll definitely have a lot of trouble in the future. I'll wait quietly and watch you make a fool of yourself."
"Go to hell, bastard," William scolded in exasperation, but he knew that Gary was right. In the future, there would definitely be a lot of people eyeing his family. Thinking about how there would be all kinds of people with bad intentions coming into contact with his mother, William felt very uneasy.
It seemed that he had to deal with the issue of his mother's safety. It would be best to find someone unrelated to Europe to protect his mother. It would be best if they were female special forces soldiers. With this thought in mind, William couldn't help but think of some bodyguards in China who specialized in protecting important people.
