Chapter 772: Chapter 772: Loyalty Shown_1

If someone unfamiliar with Wang Ye’s background were to hear him say that, they would think he was joking!

But after a flurry of media coverage, the vast majority of soccer fans are well aware of Wang Ye’s wealth and background.

A big shot worth billions, holding such high status, speaking in front of thousands of people, no one would take his words lightly!

Today is another home game for Arsenal, so the stadium personnel are mostly the most fervent Arsenal fans, so upon hearing Wang Ye’s words, everyone’s passions are ignited.

The cheering from the crowd shook the ground slightly...

Wang Ye didn’t say much, a few simple lines to get the fans excited, then he waved and exited the field.

After all, the game is soon to begin, the real stars are the players of both teams, he shouldn’t be hogging the stage for too long.

After retiring, he went to the box with the best location in the stadium, where David Dain and several club executives were accompanying him to watch the game.

The box is large enough to comfortably accommodate more than a dozen people to watch the game.

This is an old tradition of European football, basically every stadium will have similar boxes, not too many, typically a few dozen to a couple of hundred.

Highbury Stadium is relatively small, so there are only forty-eight boxes, plus there are more than a hundred and sixty press seats, and two hundred wheelchair seats for the disabled.

Being a box, the price is of course different from the regular tickets, they are sold on a yearly basis.

The common boxes in the old Highbury Stadium cost around seventy thousand pounds a year, ranging in size and location.

Having an exclusive box at the stadium is arguably the ultimate dream of every soccer fan...

Of course, the box where Wang Ye is right now, the largest one, is not for sale, usually reserved by the club for hosting visiting politicians and celebrities.

A regular box could never be this big.

When the new "Jaguar and Land Rover Stadium" is completed, the number of boxes will reach two hundred!

The decor is even more luxurious, and the price is even higher...

Wang Ye has seen the box and season ticket prices set by David Dain for the new stadium, the average box price is a hundred thousand pounds. Just from the two hundred boxes alone, they can earn nearly twenty million pounds a year!

It is noteworthy how important a large and luxurious stadium is for a club.

That’s a lot of money!

...

Maybe because of the presence of the new boss, or the home field advantage, or maybe because of the boost from the cheering of tens of thousands of fans, Arsenal players on the field are full of momentum, attacking wave after wave.

In just sixty minutes, they were already leading 3:0. Henry performed a hat trick!

Watching Henry run wildly across the field with open arms after scoring the third goal, Davis Dain said with appreciation, "Henry has become more and more star-like in the past two years, he’s in good form."

In 2003, Henry was already 26 years old, not exactly young in a professional player’s career.

He was not a true genius in the conventional sense. Even before the 2001-2002 season, he could only be considered a decent player, just a common star.

But in the 2001-2002 season, at the age of 25, Henry began to shine, appearing in 33 games and scoring 24 goals in a season!

He won his first Premier League Golden Boot.

In the final stages of the 2002-2003 season, taking into account the three goals today, he has contributed 32 goals to the team over the season!

Along with 23 assists...

It can even be said that he alone plays the role of two top players, a top striker and a top midfielder...

Given his current form, even if Ronaldinho and Ronaldo come to Arsenal, they can only assist Henry!

Wang Ye nodded in agreement, in his memory, Henry can maintain this highlight moment until about the age of thirty.

That is to say, Henry can maintain this star-level performance for around four more years, then due to age and physical limitations, his performance will begin to decline.

But by that time, C Ronaldo and Messi will have grown up, they can seamlessly take over the banner of Arsenal’s attack, and it won’t affect the team’s performance.

While the two were casually chatting and applauding Henry’s brilliant performance, after Henry ran half of the field, he approached the sideline near Wang Ye’s box and bowed in the direction of the box.

Wang Ye and David Dain saw clearly, they also understood, Henry was trying to ingratiate himself with the new boss...

Wang Ye showed a smile on his face, he didn’t expect, this dark-skinned Henry with his thick eyebrows and big eyes is quite smart, he knows who the real boss of Arsenal is.

He doesn’t let his superstar status inflate his ego or anything, but instead takes the initiative to show loyalty to his boss when the opportunity arises.

This kid is good, it seems when it’s time to renew his contract, we can offer him a big one!

After all, although Henry wasn’t as stunning after he turned thirty, his performance was definitely of the super first-rate level.

Don’t forget, after he transferred from Arsenal to Barcelona, he still scored and assisted for another two years, a threat to his opponents in La Liga!

Now as the club’s boss, the team’s performance will only get better and better, and there’s no need to worry about finances.

So there’s no need for Henry to transfer to another club.

A player with such a strong presence in the team should preferably retire in the club!

By then, it will be another beautiful story in the football circle...

Just as the game was about to end, Wang Ye was already on his feet, saying to David Dain, that under the escort of several bodyguards, he left the stadium through the VIP passage.

Outside the stadium, several black cars had been parked there.

He got in the car, heading straight for the airport...

...

In the evening, Wang Ye was back in his Moscow home.

As soon as he arrived home, he took a quick shower, changed into clean clothes, and called Khodorkovsky.

Without beating about the bush, he went straight to the point and asked, "Uncle, I heard that your faction was officially established today. Sorry, I happened to be out of the country during the past few days, I just came back, I couldn’t be there to celebrate in person."

"Haha, it’s not a big deal, didn’t I tell you a while ago? You just mind your own business, our faction is just established, the election doesn’t start until next year." Khodorkovsky laughed heartily.

Wang Ye asked with concern, "Is there anything I can help with? If there is, just say it, I may not be able to help a lot, but within my means, there is certainly no problem."

Khodorkovsky hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Are you back in Moscow now?"

"Yes, I just got back, and I’m at Xiao Ying Hotel now." Wang Ye replied.

"You haven’t had dinner yet, why don’t you come over and have dinner with us, Rilinov is also here, there are some matters, it would be good for the three of us to sit down and talk. Rilinov also has some things to discuss with you." Khodorkovsky suggested meaningfully.
