Canary Wharf in the city of London.

Andy's team stopped at the open wharf and got out of the car. Some cool sea wind blew in front of him. The suit on Andy's body was close to his body, the tie was flying, a little grinning. His hair was also blown a little out of shape, and his brow was slightly frowned.

"Boss, that's Joe Lewis's Jet China luxury yacht. It's his floating office and gallery. Every year, he spends months on the boat and travels around the world to do business. He brings with him his most treasured collection of works by Lucian Freud, Gustav Clint, Paul Cezanne and Picasso. Only his valued guests will be invited on board. "

David Dunn saw that the young boss was a little upset, and quickly explained that don't cause any misunderstanding because you don't understand. After all, Joe Lewis really attached great importance to the meeting with Andy.

Andy looks at the five story white yacht not far away, and nods slightly. He also turns his mouth in his heart. The old guy is really strong enough to pack it. He takes hundreds of millions of pounds worth of art to sail around. NIMA is not afraid to attract pirates to rob ya.

"Boss, the first old man to come is Joe Lewis."

"Well, let's go and meet Joe Lewis, the invisible billionaire foreign exchange speculator. I hope we can have a good result today."

Andy, with a bright smile on his face, took the lead and walked towards the group coming from the opposite side. David Dunn quickly followed.

"Hello, Mr. Lewis. This is Andy Smith. It's a pleasure to meet you." After all, he is almost 70 years old. Andy's etiquette is very good. When he is three steps away from the old man, he reaches out to greet and introduce him.

Broad and bright forehead, thick eyebrows and a pair of gold glasses. Although the skin on his face is very loose and wrinkled because of his age, the old man's appearance and spirit are very good.

"Hello, Mr. Smith. Nice to meet you. It's amazing age and achievements. Welcome to London. This way, please. I have prepared excellent Blue Mountain coffee and black tea. I hope you will like it." Joe Lewis looked at the handsome young man in front of him. No matter what he looked like, his temperament or his manners, he could not help but lament that he was a natural pride.

"Thank you. Please first." Andy smiled quietly, reached out and made a gesture of invitation, then walked to the luxury yacht side by side with Joe Lewis.

"This is my Aviva, which I drive every year around the world and my office. It can make me more energetic at sea." With a smile, Joe Lewis introduced Andy to the four story luxury yacht in front of him.

Andy smiled. He read the information about Lewis and knew that he moved to the Bahamas in 1979 because of tax avoidance. It was from the Caribbean countries that he turned his millions into billions through financial technology.

"It's beautiful. Some time ago, I also ordered a new yacht, the fastest speed can reach 29 knots, I am very looking forward to driving it in the sea Andy said with a smile.

"Wow, that's really good. Young people's speed. Haha, it seems that we have a good topic. Come on, let me show you my floating office and gallery. Maybe I will give you some inspiration to decorate the interior space of the yacht..."

A group of people boarded the luxury yacht. Under the show of Lewis, the old man, Andy began to visit the whole yacht space.

"This is Picasso's painting of his young Qing wife Marie's" dream. "

。。。。。。

Andy looks at many precious works of art and paintings hanging in the room. He can't help but sigh inside. It's a moving treasure house. Even if he didn't know much about art, he could have guessed that some of the paintings here could cost tens of millions of dollars each.

As for why the other side didn't put it up for auction to ease the cash crisis, but wanted to sell the football club, Andy could understand.

For Joe Lewis, a Jewish businessman, these works of art are his treasures and hobbies. Many of them are all measured by the price. As for football, he, who only asked about the club's affairs, just regarded football as an investment and a business. This is also the general intention of Jewish financial groups to run football clubs.

The bald Levi was in a complicated mood, and his expression was a little gray. He watched and tasted the Blue Mountain coffee, with cigars on his fingers. Andy and Lewis, who were talking and laughing, sighed.

David Dunne, who is sitting beside him, looks at Levi and sneers at him. As the Premier League boss whose economic strength is second only to that of Roman Abramovich, the Jewish businessman who made his fortune in foreign exchange trading and has billions of pounds in assets is a manager who never asks about the club's affairs.

However, this does not mean that Levi, who is the one with the power, can do what Yu does. His business philosophy of football is the same as eNIC's speculation. Especially on the road of building a continental organization, Levi changes day and night, vacillates, and frequently goes into a coma, which makes Joe Lewis impatient.

To be honest, considering the complicated competition situation in the Premier League and the glorious tradition of a century old store, Levi can't make the same changes in the talent market as da Costa, Castro and Pozzo, but this doesn't affect his determination and coldness when selling star players.As one of the first family clubs to win honor for Britain in the European arena, only the league cup can talk about the embarrassing situation of * * in the past three decades, which makes Tottenham more sensitive and vulnerable, and Levi's speculators have made Tottenham miss the opportunity to grow bigger and stronger.

It's a matter of context. It takes time to operate. Although Andy doesn't know much about football, David Dunne is a great admirer of his young boss. It's mainly Andy's employment, which is better than many club owners.

In Andy's words, "I don't know, but I can hire the best people in this field to help me. I can give money, power and trust to each other. If it doesn't work, it's that the people I hire are not good enough!"

"Since David invited to buy Tottenham on your behalf, white deer lane has become the most noticeable one in the Premier League, even more concerned than Arsenal, who is competing for the shares in office. Fleet Street's query on the acquisition of Tottenham is endless. Because of David's reason, many other factors have been added by the media, such as what enemies die, what revenge, what shade Conspiracy theory, it's just hilarious.

Football for me is just a business, nothing special, I am not that Russian, will not throw money for football, every summer, Tottenham fans and some media want me to contribute generously to join the golden dollar football war, I have no interest in it.

I always think that if you succeed, one of the rewards for your success is to enjoy it quietly. I can't enjoy it when I'm on the front page of the newspaper. Now, my name will appear in the newspaper almost every day. It's not my favorite life. Andy, we need to find a balance point and finish the deal as soon as possible, you say. "

The smile on Andy's face is still so sunny. He nodded his head gently to understand the other side's meaning. He also knows the low-key style of the old man opposite. Joe Lewis is definitely a low-key invisible rich man. But since he joined Tottenham, every time Tottenham's performance is not ideal. Every summer during the transfer period, he will be pulled out by the media. The media generally believed that it was he and Levy's neuroticism that personally killed the team. Levy interfered too much with the manager, and the players traded in and out, which was related to Lewis's cronyism and indulgence.

He is also helpless for these innocent disasters, but Levi's achievements are still worthy of affirmation. At least the current ranking and market value of Tottenham Hotspur club have improved qualitatively.

"Mr. Lewis, you know, now the negotiation is deadlocked due to the valuation of the club, and the debt of the team can not be ignored. Even if the plan of the new stadium is put on hold in the future, the expansion of white deer lane is also needed. It requires a lot of investment. For me, investment in the Premier League club is also a business, and business needs to consider all aspects Ben, there's only one Abramovich in the Premier League, isn't there? "

Andy won't get carried away because of the hospitality, relationship and some good words. He doesn't lack that money, but 40 million pounds is not a small amount, enough for him to do a lot of things.
