When Li Mu boarded the plane with his three-person team of Li Ziwei, Anne Hathaway and Wang Yuanlang, Manchester City Football Club officially released an announcement on its official website.
The core content of the announcement is: Today, as the new owner of Manchester City Football Club, Li Mu personally went to the Manchester City Club’s training base to meet with Manchester City’s CEO, head coach and other management teams, as well as the main players. At the same time, as the team's new owner, Li Mu will invest at least 100 million pounds in Manchester City Football Club this year to buy new players and provide fresh blood to the club.
Makino Technology issued an official statement almost at the same time. The statement stated that Li Mu had completed the acquisition of Manchester City Football Club and officially became the wholly-owned owner of Manchester City Football Club.
Li Mu is not only the first Chinese businessman to invest in a Premier League club, but also the first Chinese to invest in the five major leagues. As soon as this news was released, it immediately triggered heated discussions among the British people and throughout Europe.
A few hours ago, Li Mu had just become the focus of England. Before the heat had passed, this news had increased Li Mu's popularity a lot.
The British are as passionate about football as any other country in the world. Almost every British person likes football, and they must be fans of a Premier League club, so they pay a lot of attention to the Premier League.
Normally, when a well-known star joins the Premier League, it will become a topic of endless discussion in the British bar. What's more, a top rich man from China bought a Premier League club. Such news has almost become a topic in bars on the streets of the UK. A topic that everyone is discussing at the same time.
A few months ago, when the Russian tycoon Abramovich bought Chelsea, it triggered an extremely heated discussion among British fans. However, Abramovich's mass base is obviously many times worse than that of Li Mu, and the British generally have a very bad impression of him. , there are several reasons:
First, Abramovich is from Russia. Affected by World War II and the Cold War, the country with the lowest favorability among British people should be Russia, followed by France;
Second, Abu is a Russian oligarch. The way he earns huge wealth is completely different from the wealthy people in Western Europe and North America. In the eyes of the British, his money comes from improper sources;
Third, Abramovich’s purpose is not simple. His political background is extremely complex. Most people firmly believe that the reason why Abramovich wants to buy Chelsea is not because he likes football, but because he needs to buy and invest in Chelsea to get money from the British government. He obtained a visa and entered the British upper class at the same time, and then realized his strategic shift from assets to connections;
In the UK, even five-year-old children know that Abramovich has ulterior motives for buying Chelsea, so it is naturally difficult for British people to have a good impression of Abramovich. Instead of having a favorable impression, most of them have feelings of disgust and resistance.
But Li Mu is different.
Li Mu has long been recognized by people all over the world through his industrial development and charity activities. While Makino Technology has promoted the rapid development of the global Internet, it has also laid a solid mass foundation for Li Mu. Unlike Abu, Li Mu now Although his current net worth is extremely huge, he has come from nothing. Such a rich man who has grown up step by step on his own is much more popular than a rich man like Abu who has grown up as an oligarch.
Moreover, today Li Mu has gained two great haloes in the UK. The Queen believes that he is the most outstanding young man who has changed the world, so she awarded him the highest-level medal in the empire. This fully represents the recognition of Li Mu by the British royal family. Li Mu also left 3321 to the UK and a large and mature charity project. The British favor towards him was at its highest.
At this moment, Li Mu suddenly became the owner of Manchester City Club. Almost all the British happily accepted this news that surprised them. At the same time, they also felt a sense of pride in their hearts. Even people like Li Mu The world's top entrepreneurs are all interested in the Premier League, which is enough to prove the strength and charm of the Premier League. It is foreseeable that many people around the world will pay attention to the Premier League in the future because of Li Mu, which is great for the Premier League and even the UK. It's a great thing.
Surprisingly, some die-hard Manchester City fans even took to the streets of Manchester to celebrate. In their view, the home team they have loved for many years finally has a real chance to shine.
Just as Li Mu's plane took off, a large number of reporters rushed from London to Manchester, and a new round of headline bombing was about to take place.
…
From the time when Li Mu received the GBE award to when he announced that he became the owner of Manchester City Club, these two pieces of news attracted huge attention in Europe and the United States. However, due to the time difference, China did not catch up with these two pieces of news in time.
When the news of the awarding of medals was first sent back to China by CCTV's London correspondent, it was almost late at night in China. When the news was edited and edited, the news could not even catch up with the night bus of the evening news.
Other domestic media received news slightly slower than CCTV, and for those TV stations and media that did not have overseas reporters, the news received was even more delayed.
However, when Li Mu's plane took off and returned to China, the media across China were working overtime overnight to catch up with the major news that he had won the GBE medal.
There has never been a Chinese businessman, or even a businessman from any country, who has received the GBE medal. It is really rare for Li Mu to be so highly recognized by the British royal family. Therefore, this news has made every domestic media media Everyone is very excited, and they have no doubt that this news will also bring pride and a higher sense of national identity to the Chinese people. Therefore, this news must be regarded as the key point and the headline among the headlines. Do!
Doing such news is easy or difficult. If you just make a general reporting report, it is indeed very simple. However, if you want to do it carefully and reflect the importance of the news to the greatest extent, then It takes some effort.
Almost every media hopes to put more effort into this headline to do its best, because everyone usually competes to see whose news is faster, more complete, and deeper. However, when everyone is grabbing the same headline, As for who can do it more professionally, in order to let the domestic people know what GBE stands for and what is so great about it, we must first make a short film to let everyone know the background and level classification of the entire British Order of Merit.
In addition, I have to mention by the way, which Chinese have received medals from the British royal family, what level of medals they received, and the reasons why they received the medals. Only in this way can we understand from multiple dimensions This shows how much gold lies behind Li Mu’s GBE award.
When domestic media people are busy until early in the morning, most media have not yet finished all the news. TV media are not bad. They are ready to work all night. They first make a basic version, then copy and archive the basic version, and then Start polishing and processing the basic version. If it can be done before the news broadcast tomorrow morning, then move to the fine version. If not, move to the basic version.
Different from people in TV media, editors in traditional newspaper media are in a hurry because they have to finish the manuscript as soon as possible before sending it to the printing factory to start work. If it is delayed any longer, it will delay the launch of the newspaper tomorrow.
At about three o'clock in the morning, Yanjing time, reporters from most newspapers worked hard to put the news of the Queen's conferment of honors on Li Mu on the front page tomorrow. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go home from get off work and have a good rest. At that time, suddenly a new news came back from England.
"Li Mu acquired the Premier League Manchester United Football Club and officially became the club's wholly-owned controlling owner!"
"Li Mu wants to invest more than 100 million pounds to develop Manchester United Football Club!"
"Li Mu met with Chinese player Sun Jihai who is playing for Manchester United and highly praised his performance in the team!"
At three o'clock in the morning, the news department of Yangma was in a state of panic. Media people from other TV stations were cheering and feeling sad at the same time. The news about the queen's awarding of honors to Li Mu had not yet been finished. Britain's complicated awarding levels, history and relations with the Chinese The connection has not been made clear yet, and then we have to talk about the history of Premier League clubs and the history of Manchester United...
The editors of the newspaper media were about to get off work when they suddenly received this news and almost collapsed!
At this time, it will definitely be too late to change the layout that has been decided. By the time the press release is sorted out, it might be dawn and there will be no time to go to the printing factory.
However, this news is also very important! Although the Chinese national football team is very good at playing football, the enthusiasm of domestic fans for football is no weaker than that of any other country. Every one or two years, if a Chinese player goes to play for a European club, domestic fans will be excited and pay close attention. This time Li Mu directly bought a club in the UK. If this news comes out, domestic fans are afraid that they will explode!
If such important news does not appear in tomorrow's newspapers, it will have to wait until the day after tomorrow. But how can their colleagues in the TV media give them such an opportunity? They will definitely bomb it as hard as possible early tomorrow morning, so that by the time they publish the newspaper the day after tomorrow, the news will already be old news.
What newspapers and media are most afraid of is such big news that breaks out at night. It is too late to report it. If you don't report it, it will appear to be unauthoritative. What should you do now
Just when newspaper editors were faced with breaking news and didn't know what to do, Dong Fanzhuo, who was sleeping soundly in Bincheng, was suddenly awakened by the rapid ringtone of his cell phone.
He opened his sleepy eyes, glanced at the caller ID on his mobile phone, and found that the caller was actually his fellow countryman and senior Sun Jihai, and the number was his mobile phone in the UK.
Dong Fanzhuo suddenly lost 70% to 80% of his sleepiness. He answered the phone and said, "Brother Hai, why are you calling so late?"
Sun Jihai couldn't hide his excitement and asked him: "Zhuo Zi, are you interested in coming to Manchester City to play football?"
