Chapter 136: The New Generation of Capital Tycoons

At about 14 p.m., Ricardo, wearing a white sportswear and sunglasses, looked fresh and elegant. He was standing at the airport's arrival gate, watching Chiara, wearing UBS's silver-gray skirt and white shirt workwear, trotting towards him from a distance in black stilettos...

Before they could even say hello, Chiara flew into Ricardo's arms like a swallow returning to its nest. Ricardo quickly held the beautiful snake who was already sweating from running; Chiara hung her arms around Ricardo's neck and gave him a passionate long French kiss...

This is different from Chiara's usual self. She never did such exciting and coy things in public before. What name did she think of for the child? Twins? Boy and girl?

The kiss made Chiara a little breathless, and the two separated. Ricardo took Chiara's briefcase with concern. The latter did not bring a suitcase this time, and then asked lovingly: "Honey, why are you in such a hurry? And you are running in high heels, it's easy for the child to run away..."

Chiara was stunned, then she blushed and panted as she gave Ricardo a look: "What child? What are you thinking about... It's not about this." Then Chiara looked around at the crowd of people, who were not few in number, and hurriedly pulled Ricardo to the parking lot, "Hurry up and get in the car, I'll tell you in the car! There are too many people here..."

In the car, Ricardo listened to Chiara's excited and somewhat incoherent statement, and then he knew what was going on.

Early this morning, Chiara received an internal company email informing her that the merger between YouTube and Google, which was being followed up by the American team, had been officially completed. All document procedures and the delivery of funds and stocks had been completed last night, and today would be the official announcement to the market.

Previously, because it involved a large-scale merger and acquisition case involving a listed company, it was subject to strict internal control and confidentiality; Chiara wanted to find out, but all she got were some insignificant rumors whose authenticity could not be verified.

After Ricardo handed the matter over to the board of directors and the UBS team to follow up, he never asked about it again, so naturally he didn't know the situation. But after all, he was mentally prepared, unlike Chiara, a bank vase who had not experienced any major storms and was very nervous.

In the end, due to Ricardo's active investment and early involvement, the acquisition price paid by Google was about 15% higher than the original price, reaching 18.9 billion US dollars - this was the result of the collective concession of the YouTube founding team. The payment method was also different from the original basic all-stock, but 70% stock and 30% cash.

As the company's third largest shareholder, Ricardo held a 20% stake before the merger. From this transaction, the equivalent stock and cash income added up to US$3.78 million. After deducting the necessary transaction fees and US taxes, there was still a return of more than US$3 million. Compared with the investment of US$1 million a year ago, it has increased 600 times!

And this morning, Chiara checked the bank account of Ricardo's trust fund and found that the cash column had a net income of more than 3780 million US dollars, as well as Google stock worth 2.65 million US dollars (about 7600 million US dollars was used to pay taxes).

So Chiara was furious on the spot, but she didn't dare to make a loud noise. She called Ricardo immediately. Unexpectedly, this diamond man with deadly charm went for morning exercise early in the morning. But Chiara couldn't wait any longer. She had to change the earliest flight immediately, said hello to her supervisor, and went straight to her favorite client without even taking her luggage.

On the flight, all Chiara was thinking about was how to have babies with Ricardo, lots and lots of little monkeys...So as soon as they got off the plane, when Ricardo mentioned that the child had run away, Chiara reacted in a split second. She also knew that Ricardo had misunderstood, but no matter what, they were on the same page.

They returned to Ricardo's house without any obstacles. As soon as they entered the door, Chiara directly knocked Ricardo against the wall, and then pushed Ricardo down on the sofa. She couldn't wait to ride on this handsome guy who exuded a damn charming aura and vent the excitement that she couldn't suppress until now...

But after all, he was the scumbag who was drained by another big sister the day before yesterday. Ricardo still kept his last bit of clarity. He had less than an hour left before training. If he was entangled by the beautiful snake, he would definitely be on the bench in the weekend league. So he quickly held down Chiara's restless and sinful little hands and long legs.

"You're a billionaire, why are you still playing professional football?" Chiara asked puzzledly.

"Aha, honey, you don't understand this. High-tech investment is just a side job. What I love is still football. After all, I'm still young, right? Why do I want to be decadent and just eat and wait for death?" Although little Ricardo had already begun to express different opinions, the ideal Li who dominated the first half still defeated the scumbag Li. "By the way, honey, I'm going to training first. You didn't bring any luggage, so you can go shopping. Use my card, have a SPA, get your hair done, and eat something good... Well, I'll pick you up at the mall in about 3 and a half hours."

Chiara thought about it and said, "Huh? Yes! I can go shopping. This is the right way to vent my emotions after making money. Anyway, I still have plenty of time in the evening. It seems that Ricardo's league game this week is on Sunday night, so there will be plenty of chicken parties tomorrow and the day after tomorrow...

"My hair was just curled into brown noodle waves two days ago, so let's do a body shaping SPA..." Women are so fickle. Before she even got up from Ricardo, Chiara had already thought about how she was going to spend the money, although she would definitely change her mind in a moment.

……

No matter what, after all, he made a lot of money from his investment, so Ricardo was in a very good mood. He showed excellent form in the evening training session, frequently scored goals and made wonderful assists in the team training matches, and immediately secured Juan Ramos' starting spot on Sunday night.

时间很快来到2006年10月1日的晚上21时，西班牙足球甲级联赛第5轮展开争夺；本轮比赛塞维利亚将坐镇主场迎战赫塔菲。

After this round of games, the European Cup qualifiers will resume. Ricciardo, who has been in good form recently, has been recruited by Donadoni into the Italian national team. He will play against Ukraine at home and Georgia away on October 10 and 8 respectively.

Chiara also greeted the bank's supervisor on the pretext of discussing with a major client the follow-up disposal of the oil pipeline acquisition and the most important issue of early settlement performance compensation. She was approved to accompany the major client throughout the next week until the early settlement performance compensation was agreed upon.

So Chiara also came to cheer for her sweetheart tonight wearing her newly bought French white tea-style summer long dress and her newly bought Yang Shulin YSL white high-heeled sandals; and planned to accompany Riccardo back to Italy to participate in the national team's competition...

Ricardo, who was also wearing a white home team uniform, was already on the field preparing to kick off. He quickly put aside the thoughts in his mind about when and how the cold war with Eva would end, and focused on the game.

Because in the last UEFA Cup, Sevilla not only passed easily, but also rested most of the main players, so Juan Ramos sent all the main players to start this round, and they were all players in great form, especially Li Qi, who replaced Navas who was suspended for a red card as the right midfielder.

The formation is still 4-4-2, the goalkeeper returns to the old goalkeeper No. Palop, and the back line is Alves, Navarro, Osio and Adriano lined up in a row.

The midfield quartet is Li Qi, Poulsen, Renato and Puerta; the double striker is Fabiano and Kanoute.

Last season, the two sides met and each won at home, so their strength should be comparable; however, in the first leg of this season, after the kick-off, Sevilla took advantage and beat the visiting team hard in the first half!

Especially on the right side where Li Qi is, the cooperation with Alves is extremely sharp. Compared with the original cool combination of Navas and Alves, the combination of Qis not only maintains a high level in terms of technology and speed breakthroughs, but also adds a lot of imaginative passing and cutting cooperation and unexpected rhythm changes. It seems to be neither fast nor slow, but it is actually extremely fast, which makes people confused and hard to defend...

So Chiara, who was sitting in the VIP seats in the stands, admired Ricardo's dominant performance in the first half: "He's handsome, rich, plays football well, and has great abilities in that area..."

Only 7 minutes into the game, Li Qi received a long pass from left-back Adriano on the right for the third time. He stopped and passed the ball, easily controlling it under his feet, and directly faced Getafe's defense in an attacking state.

Then, when facing the double team of Getafe, he retreated half a step and sent a perfect straight pass to Alves who was running at high speed through the small door of Getafe midfielder Guiza.

After Alves broke through to the baseline, Li Qi received Alves's heel pass in the corner of the penalty area. Li Qi then observed the goalkeeper's position, and when the Getafe defenders did not immediately defend him, he made a lob shot with his right foot...

The ball drew a beautiful rainbow-like arc, passed through the goalkeeper's fingers that were stretched to the extreme when he arrived at the near post to block the ball, and fell into the upper corner of the far post of the goal just 2 centimeters below the bottom edge of the crossbar.

"Ditch oh oh oh! Ditch oh oh oh! Ditch! World class lob!"

"In the 7th minute of the first half, the one who scored the first goal for Sevilla was... the magical and talented young man - No. 11 Li Qi!"

The DJ on the scene also excitedly promoted this wonderful goal and interacted with the fans of the home team...

Getafe subsequently learned from their experience and lessons and began to guard Li Qi more closely, never giving him any space to shoot. Guiza was like a personal bodyguard, always surrounding him and serving him.

So Li Qi began to imitate Ronaldinho or Qi Xuanzong, holding the ball and feinting on the right side, attracting the defense, and then sending the ball to the defensive gap, which made Getafe's defense very difficult for a while.

If Kanoute and Renato had not missed opportunities in succession, Sevilla would have defeated Getafe in the first thirty minutes of the first half.

However, Sevilla's second goal came in the 31st minute.

This time, Brazilian international Fabiano pulled out of the penalty area and played a reverse cut with Li Qi. Li Qi's overhead pass accurately passed over the head of Getafe defender Alexis and landed right in front of Fabiano who was advancing...

The ball bounced slightly on the ground, and Fabiano, who was facing the goalkeeper alone, did not hesitate to shoot. The ball went out of the gun like a cannonball and went straight to the upper corner of the goal.

Fabiano, who was in poor form due to intermittent injuries at the beginning of the season, finally scored his first league goal of the season in the fifth round of the league, helping Sevilla expand their lead.

But 2-0 was not the final score of the first half. Before the end of the first half, Sevilla took advantage of Getafe's eagerness to close the gap and seized the opportunity to counterattack. Li Qi scored twice to win another game.

In the 42nd minute, Getafe won a corner kick, and most of the team rushed into Sevilla's penalty area. However, after the corner kick was taken, Fabiano intercepted it at the front point and headed it out of the penalty area.

Renato chested the ball at the front of the penalty area and was brought down by Getafe midfielder Nacho. Just as the referee was about to call a foul and stop the game; Li Qi took off from the penalty area with a volley and instantly stole the ball, breaking through Getafe's interception in front of Sevilla's penalty area. At this time, there was a large open area in Getafe's half, and only Paredes was retreating.

While the referee raised his hands to give the attack a favorable opportunity, Li Qi approached the midfield in a few steps; facing Paredes, Li Qi ran at high speed and flicked the ball horizontally to the empty space on the left, but he did not stop and rushed straight behind Paredes at high speed...

Adriano, who followed up from the back row, understood the hint and sent a straight pass without hesitation. The straight pass was just right, and Li Qi just crossed the half court. While not offside, Paredes, who was ready to foul and get a card near the center circle, intercepted it in vain...

Li Qi was like a supercar on the highway, and Getafe's defensive players couldn't even see their taillights; then Li Qi easily intercepted Adriano's through pass outside the penalty area, dribbled past goalkeeper Luis, easily shot into the empty goal, and then came to the stands where Chiara was to celebrate with his hands.

The Getafe coach was stunned by Li Qi's performance, covering his face with his hands, wondering what he was thinking. Juan Ramos was very satisfied with Li Qi's performance, and he grabbed the assistant coach beside him and praised him: "Does this kid have eyes behind his head? The pass to Adriano was so wonderful, how did he know that Adriano was in place? Did he observe and predict it before the start? The goose girl is awake..."

So at halftime, Juan Ramos asked Li Qi, who had already secured the man of the game with two goals and one assist, to rest. Fabiano, who was also a goal scorer and needed to gradually recover his form and strength, also rested with him. This was also to protect both of them from getting injured in the second half; the former was afraid of being kicked in retaliation by the opponent, and the latter was afraid that his old injury had not healed fully.

The Italians Maresca and young player Copa replaced them. Seeing that Li Qi was sitting on the bench and applying ice in the second half, Chiara left the field early, so as to avoid encountering some blind perverts when the game was over. She went back to her apartment to take a shower, change into her uniform and wait for her idol to return...

However, the second half of the game was also uneventful. Sevilla controlled the tempo of the game throughout, and Getafe seemed to have accepted its fate and did not struggle much. So, with Kepa and Kanoute continuing to waste opportunities, Sevilla relied on the amazing performance of Li Qi who clocked out at halftime to defeat the visiting Getafe 3-0 and won three consecutive home games this season.

塞维利亚本赛季的3个主场全胜，5轮4胜1负的战绩，也帮助塞维利亚紧咬只领先1分的三支西甲豪强--皇马、巴萨与瓦伦。

After the national team match day, Sevilla will face Barcelona away in the next round of the league; Ricardo will face his old club, or because the contract is still there, is it still his old club?

Let’s not worry about it for now. After completing the relaxation and skill training in his private lessons on Monday morning, Ricardo prepared to return to Milan with Chiara. He would first go home to see his parents, stop by UBS to communicate, and then go to Rome to report to the national team.
