Chapter 352

For the British media, it is absolutely a big event for them to fly to London in the cold. Their influence is not even inferior to that of foreign leaders, and they have given them very high standard treatment.

But Gao Han obviously didn't plan to cooperate with them. After arriving at Heathrow airport, he didn't take the conventional channel, but left the airport through the special channel to avoid the media reporters and fans stationed at the scene.

However, after walking around Heathrow airport and avoiding the media reporters and fans, they went back to Harrington training ground one kilometer north of the airport.

As a result, just arrived at the door, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Is this the training ground for Chelsea?" Gao Han took off his sunglasses and looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

It's not like a training ground for a Premier League team at all. It's more like a dilapidated warehouse on the outskirts of London.

The road seems to have just been built after Abramovich bought the team, extending from the main road outside Heathrow airport to the parking lot in the training ground.

The gate is welded with rusty water pipes, and the security room is temporarily built like a tin house.

There are two floors in the training building. It seems that it has been some years, and the external walls are mottled. It can be imagined that the facilities inside are certainly not much better.

Inside, there are four pieces of turf, but only one has geothermal and drainage systems.

"Darling, how do you train in winter?" Lorenzo Buenaventura is a fool.

Atletico Madrid's training ground is relatively poor, did not expect that Chelsea worse.

You know, it's rainy all year round and snowy in winter in England. Without good geothermal and drainage facilities, the team can't train at all.

The staff who called on them to inspect the training ground also laughed bitterly, "in winter or rainy days, the youth team stops training. If the first team can train in the open air, it will train. If it can't, it will change to indoor training."

Gao Han and others look at each other. Is that ok?

I'm really convinced!

No wonder the players in England are so violent. They are all tempered by bad conditions!

In fact, with the climate of England, all Premier League teams should at least have indoor training grounds.

But it's clear that even teams like Chelsea are so bad, let alone other Premier League teams.

"What Mr. Abramovich means is to follow Mr. Gao's instructions. If you have any needs or ideas, just mention them. We will try our best to meet them."

The staff's statement made Gao Han feel better. Otherwise, he really wanted to back out on the spot.

"You will immediately arrange the maintenance of the geothermal and drainage systems, as well as all the equipment and props for training. From now on, we will take over the whole training ground." Alpine gave the first order.

The staff had already received the arrangement from the management and agreed immediately.

"Carlos, Lorenzo, Pedro and unay, take stock as soon as possible, clean up all those that don't meet our requirements, and make a purchase list."

The assistants immediately nodded.

It's a big headache for them to see how dilapidated the training ground is.

"Sergio, you're going to get your hands together and start the analysis team."

"I see. Give it to me." Sergio Garcia laughs.

Gao Han took a deep look at the training ground and shook his head and sighed.

As long as you think about the fact that he will work here in the next two years, you will feel big headed.

Just as Gao Han frowned and looked around the training ground, a short message came in.

"Hello, Mr. Gao. Welcome to Chelsea."

"I very much look forward to the opportunity to meet and communicate with you, to train under your command, and sincerely hope that we can fight side by side and achieve success."

The signer of SMS is John Terry.

This short message warms the cold heart.

John Terry is one of the captains of the team. After the French veteran deselli gradually faded out, he is the local centre back that Chelsea focus on cultivating. His strength is not bad, and he is also the flag of the blues.

"He's good." Gao Han said with a smile.

Cantarello and unay emery nodded after reading the text message. Terry is really good.

"Thank you. I hope to meet you before the training." Gao Han took back his cell phone and sent a short message back.

Soon, the message came again.

"Well, I'm in London. Whenever it's convenient for you, I can."

This makes the high cold happy again, "tomorrow, how about it?"

"Of course." Terry replied, "it's in your hotel."

"Good“ Gao Han understood that Terry knew that he was not familiar with London, so he arranged to meet at the hotel.

The boy has a high Eq. no wonder he became the team leader at a young age.

…………

…………

After inspecting the Harrington training ground, Gao Han and his party returned to the hotel.

At lunch time, Jorge Mendes also arrived in London. In the afternoon, he accompanied the cold to London to see the house.

After Gao Han came to the Premier League, he definitely wanted to live in London. Lin Xia also applied to work in London, but it took some time, so Gao Han didn't plan to sell his house in Madrid lafenka.

The location of the place is good. The neighbors are political and business celebrities. The players of Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid also live nearby. No one else can buy it. The cold weather is not bad for money. They don't want to sell it. They are temporarily left to Lin Xia and Chu Yao.

As for London, the original idea of Alpine was to rent, but Mendes suggested buying a house.

The reason is also very good. The rent of high-end residential areas is not cheap, and if you buy a house, you can register a company in the Caymans and other places, and then buy a house in the name of the company, so as to reasonably reduce the personal tax burden of the UK.

I don't know how to operate, but there are experts in Mendes.

More importantly, house prices in London are not expensive.

As we all know, buying a house depends on the location.

As one of the world's top international financial centers, London has obvious advantages in attracting the attention of global investors. The area around Hyde Park in the west end of London is undoubtedly the core area of London.

Good public security, convenient transportation, prosperous business, all in line with the requirements of the cold.

As for the level of education, although we don't consider the high and cold climate, there has always been a royal neighborhood in this area. Educational resources are second to none in Europe, so we don't need to say more.

When all the overseas investors have focused on the vicinity of Knight bridge, Belgravia, Mayfair and Eaton square, Gao Han chose to buy a house in the garden street of Kensington Palace. He was not attracted by the excellent educational resources in Europe, but because it is relatively cheaper here.

On both sides of the garden like Boulevard, there are traditional buildings with Edwardian flavor, which make Lin Xia extremely satisfied.

The four story high townhouse, with a total area of more than 1000 square meters, has four large rooms with luxurious facilities such as family cinema, gymnasium, indoor swimming pool, sauna and so on.

Such a luxury house, priced at 4 million euros, is not cheap.

In the words of managers of high-end real estate agents, if such a house is placed near Eaton square, it will cost at least 6 million euros, or even more.

Moreover, he also vowed to tell the cold, the next few years, London's house prices are absolutely bullish.

Because Lin Xia had visited the house once in the company of her London friends, she decided to buy the house on the spot after seeing the house on the spot in the company of Mendes in the afternoon.

Although the slogan of the agency is to move in with bags, many places need to be redecorated according to the requirements of alpine and Lin Xia, so Alpine has not been able to move in for the time being, so we can only continue to live in nearby hotels, and it is estimated that we will have to stay for another month.

"I learned that the original owner of this house was a British it upstart. He bought it in 1999 and spent more than 2 million euros. Later, he invited a famous designer friend to decorate it. But before he could move in, he caught up with the wave of Internet crash and his company went bankrupt."

On the bus back to the hotel, Mendes introduced what he had learned.

"At present, investors outside the UK like to buy real estate in the Knightsbridge area in the south of Hyde Park. Although the west side is also very good, it is not well-known, especially Kensington Palace, which is not valued by people, so the price is not high, but it is very cost-effective."

Speaking of this, Mendes smiles at the cold, "originally I was thinking, if you don't want to buy it, I'll sell it."

Gao Han shakes his head and smiles. He doesn't pay much attention to where he lives. Anyway, Lin Xia likes it and buys it.

"Guess what Abramovich paid you?" Asked Mendes suddenly.

Gao Han frowned, thought about it, shook his head and said, "I can't guess how much?"

"This number." Mendesby made an eight.

"Eight million?" Gao Han was surprised.

"Annual salary after tax." Mendes nodded.

This makes Gao Han breathe out. He is really rich.

However, at the beginning, Mendes took the initiative to return the blank check and did a good job, kicking the ball back to Abramovich to see how strong his heart for talent was.

It turns out that Abramovich is not disappointed. The annual salary of 8 million euro is the first day price in today's football, which is higher than that of Ferguson's 6 million euro.

"There is also a lot of signing fee, with a total of 2 million euros. The prize money for winning the championship is also very rich. The domestic cup is 1.5 million euros, and the UEFA Cup is 2 million euros. If you can win the Premier League, the prize money will be 3 million euros. In addition, if you can win more than one championship at the same time, there will be extra prize money."

Mendes laughed shrewdly and was obviously very satisfied with the outcome of his negotiations.

Gao Han also nodded to him with admiration. Although he talked highly, Mendes also had a servant, but he did a pretty good job.

Of course, Abramovich should not feel the loss, because the current value of Alpine is priceless.

"Abramovich wants to have a meal with you and meet you before signing the contract. It can be seen that he likes your team style very much, and he wants to hear about your team planning."

Mendes said here, looking at the cold with concern, "what's up? Do you have any specific ideas? "

Gao Han nodded, "the idea is there, but specific, I want to understand the situation first."

"That's good. After all, I'm new here. I can't make a decision too soon." Mendes also agreed with the idea of high cold.

"I have an appointment with Terry tomorrow."

"John Terry?"

"Well, I'd like to use him as a breakthrough to learn about the team."

Gao's task now is very clear. If the team wants to restructure and attract reinforcements, he needs to work out a plan as soon as possible（ (to be continued.)
