Vol 2 Chapter 961: Step back each

Chapter Ninety One Hundred and Sixty One

Step back each

Bill will not compromise on Lin Feng's threat. However, now the arrow is on the line, he does not compromise, and Lin Feng will not give up. In the end, if the trouble goes on, it will only hurt both sides.

"Mr. Lin, I think we should be honest and honest, and show our sincerity!" Bill thought for a while and persuaded him tactfully.

Lin Feng smiled.

"Mr. Bill, I don't want to hurt our peace because of this. Well, in this matter, I will give you a discount, a 20% discount, and allow you to pay in installments, but the down payment must be 2 billion US dollars. The rest. We can talk more about it!" Lin Feng said.

Bill frowned.

"Mr. Lin, your sincerity is really insufficient. We can pay up to 200 million U.S. dollars. We must know that this contract was originally invalid." Bill insisted.

"Hehe, Mr. Bill, 200 million US dollars, can I make a mistake to come and find you in person. This is my condition. If your company doesn't agree, it's very simple. I will use my own eyes and earn back from the lottery!" Lin The wind threatened.

Bill was irritated again. This is a disguised ultimatum given by Lam Fung. If they fail to fulfill the contract, I am afraid that Lam Fung will be a "devil" in the match between Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds.

"Mr. Lin, please allow me to think about it. Of course, I also hope that Mr. Lin will reconsider your condition. You know, this condition is too harsh." Bill finished speaking very sincerely, hung up the phone, and returned. In the meeting room, discuss Lin Feng's conditions with everyone again.

Hearing the blind tone on the phone, Lin Feng smiled. He is convinced that Bill will compromise and William Hill will compromise, as long as he lowers the conditions a little bit. Because now this matter is no longer just a matter of myself and William Hill, it has already affected the British people and the stability of British society.

Because before that, Lin Feng received a call from the Secretary of Commerce of the United Kingdom. During the call, the Secretary of Commerce of the United Kingdom very vaguely asked Lin Feng not to do any more grandstanding things (referring to the high-profile announcement of Avril Lavigne's bet), so as not to damage it. The prosperity and stability of British society.

The British Secretary of Commerce said so because Avril’s high-profile bets in two consecutive games triggered a gambling frenzy among the people in the UK, and they all took Avril’s horse as their head. To be honest, the British government does not object to people earning some change from gaming companies, but rather appreciates it. After all, these bookmakers make so much money a year, and occasionally vomiting some money out can be considered as giving back to the society. But if these fans are no longer betting on idle money, but betting on almost bankruptcy, it would be bad. In particular, these fans are betting on a bet, which is even worse.

It's easy to say if you win, what if you lose? What will happen to the thousands of British football fans who have spent all their money to gamble? Behind every British football fan is a family. How will these families live? Even if the government is willing to provide relief, the money required is a huge expenditure, which is equivalent to the British government paying for the gaming company in disguise. Isn't this too ridiculous. But if there is no relief, so many losing fans may commit illegal acts under the pressure of life, and the harm will be even greater.

Therefore, the forward-looking Minister of Commerce immediately called Lin Feng, asking him not to mislead the British people. After all, even if Avril Lavigne loses tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, to Avril Lavigne and Lin Feng, it is only a fraction of a fraction, but for ordinary people, losing a few thousand and tens of thousands of pounds is really not a small sum.

Lin Feng was also quite surprised when the Minister of Commerce called in person, but this was a good thing. As soon as I talked about the cause and effect, some of the detailed questions in the middle were naturally skipped. It just said that William Hill Gaming Company failed to pay the debt, so Avril was helpless to ask for money through this method.

Hearing this, the British Secretary of Commerce was also dumbfounded. He immediately said that he would report to the Prime Minister and let the Prime Minister make a ruling, and said that if the situation is true, the British government will definitely give Avril an explanation. But the prerequisite is that Lin Feng is not allowed to be so grandstanding and undermine British social unity.

Lin Feng smiled helplessly. I have become a person who affects the unity of British society. I am really honored. But as long as the British government is willing to intervene in this matter!

Later, while Bill and the company directors were discussing the matter, the Secretary of Commerce called and asked about the matter in detail.

Bill was also surprised when the Secretary of Commerce called in person. He didn't understand how this matter would involve the British government. After a brief explanation, I got a suggestion from the British government, and the British Ministry of Commerce came forward to coordinate the dispute between Avril Lavigne (Lin Feng) and William Hill over the US$1 billion gambling capital.

auzw.com For this suggestion, William Hill naturally agreed with it, and proposed three days later, after the Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United match. Bill hopes to take this opportunity to stabilize Lin Feng. After all, at a meeting led by the Ministry of Commerce, Lin Feng naturally could not place a heavy bet on this game before, otherwise it would offend the British government. To offend the British government, Lin Feng's title of "Sir of the Order of the British Empire" is not enough. As for three days later, even if the talk collapses, William Hill is not afraid. Without the relationship between the Leeds United boss and Lam Fung, the rest of the teams would not be so afraid. At least the fans would not be so crazy, and Lin Feng would not dare to spend a lot of money on gambles.

Unfortunately, Bill is smart, and Lin Feng is not stupid.

"No, it must be held within three days, otherwise it won't talk about it." Lin Feng said forcefully.

"Mr. Lin, what does it matter if one day earlier and one day later?" The Secretary of Commerce said with a headache.

"Mr. Cable, please be honest, this is not a question of time, but a question of sincerity. If William Hill wants to negotiate, it must be negotiated within three days, otherwise I will not talk to him again. You It should also be known that in this matter, they are the first to blame, and they must show their sincerity if they want peace talks." Lin Feng said bluntly.

The British Secretary of Commerce Cable had a headache. After finally discussing with Bill and Lin Feng, they decided to negotiate on Saturday morning.

Time passed quickly, and Saturday came in the blink of an eye.

"Relax, Avril Lavigne, I'll take care of this matter, you just wait for the good news. By the way, Ken Yang, you will go with me today!" Lin Feng smiled and patted Avril Lavigne on the shoulder, reassuring him. Then said to Kenyon.

At present, there is no one around Lin Feng. On the negotiation, Lin Feng is far less than Ken Yang, general manager of Tottenham Hotspur. He is the real negotiator. He leads the negotiation and Lin Chiling's assistance makes today's Negotiation is enough.

Indeed, as Lin Feng expected, Ken Yang played a major role in today's negotiations. It can be said that William Hill did not expect Lin Feng to bring Ken Yang. They are all familiar with Ken Young. This is the ruthless role of the Premier League general manager. His negotiation skills are well known in the world. He used to help Manchester United recruit top players from all walks of life. Now he can also help Lin Feng recruit Baker from Manchester United. Ham, who hired Defoe from West Ham United, dominated Tottenham's summer transfers, and his ability is obvious to all.

Now that this person is here, today's negotiations may be very difficult.

This is indeed the case. Kenyon used the illegality of the contract to take the initiative and directly accused William Hill of choosing words in the contract in order to avoid compensation, and to find out the clauses that can refuse compensation, which undermined the reputation of the British gambling industry, and then even more intimidated and lured. , He was determined to help Lin Feng collect debts at all costs. The bluffing Secretary of Commerce Cable was stunned, and Bill and others were also frightened.

They can't help but be frightened. Kenyon is looking forward to the fact that if there is no compensation this time, Tottenham Hotspur will create a sky-high winning bonus for the team to stimulate the players to win. And if a team can continue to win, this is undoubtedly good news for the fans and a beacon. At that time, the fans' bet is enough to make William Hill lose money.

But in the end, Ken Young, who had always been extremely tough, suddenly changed and offered to lower the conditions, demanding that William Hill only pay US$3 billion in compensation, but the down payment must be US$2 billion. The rest can be paid in installments and paid off in 10 years.

For Kenyon’s condition, Secretary of Commerce Cable also felt reasonable. After all, in this matter, in his opinion, William Hill was purely at a loss. He wanted to make a fortune. Unexpectedly, it was not as good as expected. In the end, he lost money. Therefore, they tried every means to avoid the huge compensation of 5 billion US dollars. Therefore, Lin Feng was implicated and so many things had happened!

In the end, with the mediation of the Minister of Commerce, William Hill’s stubbornness, Ken Yang’s strength, and Lin Feng’s unbearable release, the two parties finally reached a friendly agreement. William Hill Gaming Corporation agreed to compensate Avril Lavigne for a total of US$3 billion in gambling, with a down payment of US$1.5 billion, and pay off the remaining US$1.5 billion in debt in the following ten years. At the same time, William Hill also put forward a condition that Lam Fung and Avril Lavigne should not publicize this compensation, so as not to affect William Hill’s stock price and credibility, otherwise William Hill has the right to refuse compensation.

In this regard, Lin Feng readily agreed. Lin Feng didn't intend to use this news to make trouble, and it was only natural that he agreed.

"Mr. Bill, thank you, I am very satisfied that we can finally reach an agreement." Lin Feng smiled and shook hands.

"Mr. Lin, I hope you can keep your promise. Also, we'd better not meet again in the future, and hope that Mr. Lin will not buy lottery tickets in our company in the future!" Bill insisted on leaving.

Lin Feng smiled. I'm not a gambler, if I don't have to, I won't take any risks to buy lottery tickets.

"Well, Avril Lavigne, look, the matter is finally resolved." Lin Feng sighed, the matter was finally resolved successfully, and he could start his big plan.

The acquisition of MGM is only the first step, and Lin Feng also intends to take the opportunity to acquire another company.
