Vol 5 Chapter 106: Decided!

The Calderon Stadium is located on the banks of the Manzanares in the southwest of Madrid.
The two nearby streets are the commercial street in the south of the city. There is a national road and the city railway on one side. The transportation is also very convenient. The facilities on the stadium are perfect. Some modern facilities, such as the large screens on both sides of the stadium, are also difficult to see on other stadiums.
This course is undoubtedly one of the best in the world.
In 23 years, UEFA rated Calderon Stadium as a 5-star football stadium.
But Calderon Stadium has one of the biggest problems. As the home of Atletico Madrid, one of Spain's top teams, the stadium capacity of 54851 is really a bit small.
As early as in the 1990s, the Atletico Madrid club wanted to expand the Calderon stadium, but it failed in the end, because the nearby relocation would cost a lot of money, which was the club can't afford.
In the 21st century, the Atletico Madrid economy has always had problems, and plans to expand the Calderon stadium continue to be shelved.
In 27 years, Xiao Hill led two companies and signed an agreement with the other party, hoping to move the team away from Calderon in about three years, and the expansion of the Madrid Olympic Stadium that can accommodate 73,000 people as a new At home, the Calderon Stadium will be overturned and converted into "Atletico Park".
Until the Atletico Madrid Club was acquired, the two sides still failed to reach an agreement. The plan was strongly opposed by many Atletico Madrid fans. "The club should have money to use in team building instead of tearing down the home stadium for many years!"
Among Atletico Madrid ’s fan groups, there is an association called sena-1es-de-hu (translated as
Smoke Signal
) that is very influential.
This is a highly critical association established by some small shareholders of the Atletico Club. It was founded in 22 years and often supervises and criticizes the management and operation of the club.
According to their own statement, the purpose of the establishment of the association is mainly to "study and inspect the operation of the club and defend the club's property".
The "smoke signal" is the main group opposed to the plan to relocate the stadium.
When a reporter interviewed, "Do you not support changing the stadium at all? Do you want to leave Calderon and move to the new stadium, or do you want to stay?"
In the "Smoke Signal" group, a person who did not wish to be named replied, "The matter of changing the course depends on the specific method. For us to achieve the replacement of the course, there must be four premises: that is to follow The operation of the course must be profitable, must be legal, must be approved by the club members, and the club must have ownership of the new venue. The new course plan does not do anything, so we are opposed to changing the home stadium! "
Under the opposition of many fans and groups, this plan can only be shelved, and negotiations between Atletico Madrid and the two companies have also been suspended.
In fact, the two sides also intend to cooperate, but Atletico Madrid must consider the huge opposition of fans.
In the final analysis, it is the economic problems of Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid cannot afford to build a new stadium. Even the expansion of an old stadium requires a lot of financial support. Hill wants to invest for the club and must pay a lot of money. Those invested companies cannot help Atletico Madrid ‘free’.
Now the club's three giants: Chairman Cerezo, e-Little Hill and head coach Wan Sheng, must study the possibility of expanding the stadium or building a new stadium.
Of the three, Wansheng no doubt has the right to speak.
Wansheng is not only the team's head coach, but also the club's largest shareholder. His Taiwan Investment Exhibition controls the most shares in the club. In June last year, Taiwan Investment Exhibition acquired 51% of the club's shares, 1 Now, months later, through sporadic acquisitions, Taiwan Investment Exhibition has controlled more than 81% of the club's shares.
In Atlético de Madrid, Wan Sheng has the absolute right to speak.
Once Wan Sheng came to the office, Cerezo and Xiao Hill directly talked about the club's stadium situation. They focused on two points. One is the expansion of the Calderon stadium is `` almost impossible ''.
"That's too much capital to be consumed, it's even better to build a new stadium directly!" Road.
As the club's e, Xiao Hill is responsible for economic matters. He has still investigated the expansion of the stadium. The biggest difficulty in expanding the Calderon stadium is to demolish a nearby commercial building, but it requires a lot of consumption. Funding is arguably impossible, and it is difficult for the club to obtain permission from the Madrid government.
The second is the Madrid Olympic Stadium plan that was put on hold in 27 years.
"I think this plan is the best, and we can still talk about it now. The club does not need to spend much money. If we start to expand now, we will be able to move into the new stadium by about 216."
The Madrid Olympic Stadium is a very old stadium.
This stadium is located in the outskirts of Madrid, and there are no major problems in renovation and expansion. Atletico Madrid Club has already drawn up a plan. The biggest problem is that the Madrid Olympic Stadium belongs to the municipal government. , And then carry out renovations and expansions, it will consume more funds.
Previously, Hill wanted to rent the Madrid Olympic Stadium. Every year, he gave the municipal government a certain amount of money as a rental fee, and then negotiated with the invested company to sell the stadium's naming rights and advertising space to let them come up with funds for renovation and expansion.
In this plan, the Atlético de Madrid has almost no funding.
The reason why the plan was strongly opposed is that the Madrid Olympic Stadium does not belong to the Atletico Madrid club, but is the property of the municipal government. At the same time, the stadium ’s naming rights are sold, and Atletico Madrid fans simply cannot accept it. In comparison, it is not as good Continue to stay at Calderon Stadium.
Hill again proposed the plan, hoping to get Wan Sheng's support.
As long as Wansheng can support this plan, the resistance of fans will be much smaller. After a season, Wansheng has conquered many fans. Even the most discerning fans have nothing to say about the team's current results.
But ... Wansheng cannot support!
Atletico Madrid, it can be said that most of them belong to him, how can you rent a stadium as home? In addition, the naming rights of the stadium are handed over to other companies, it might as well be directly handed over to the Tagore Group!
Under Xiao Hill's goal, Wan Sheng shook his head directly, "This is not okay. I agree with the fans. We can't rent the stadium, let alone sell the championship."
Hill is disappointed.
But then, Wan Sheng asked, "How much does it cost to buy the Olympic Stadium at the city government?"
"At least 100 million euros!"
"so many?"
Wansheng frowned ~ EbookFREE.me ~ If it is a gorgeous modern bad stadium, it is worth hundreds of millions of euros, but the Madrid Olympic Stadium has been abandoned and cannot be used anymore. Counted, the land is more valuable than the stadium itself too much.
"The 100 million euros are not much. The stadium was built for the Olympics. The surrounding area is very large. The municipal government is not a fool. They cannot sell the middle stadium alone. If they want to buy it, they must also join the surrounding ..."
Wan Sheng is clear.
Then he bowed his head and considered for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said with a smile, "Whether it is building a new stadium or expanding a stadium, it is impossible to talk directly, so, Mr. Hill, your next job is to negotiate with the city government. ... "
"We want to buy the Olympic Stadium and the surrounding area, the bigger the location, the better!" (Unfinished). 8
