Rebirth: Let's Talk About 1984

According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.

...

Chapter 599 Anyone can brag!

They protested the board's decision to sell the team to Chinese people, who claimed they didn't understand or like football at all.

Xing Baohua met with the chairman of the Manchester City board to learn about the team's performance, debts, and so on.

It's like buying a radish: "How much does it cost? I'm just asking the price."

But for some reason, The Sun's report was a bit biased, making it sound like Xing Baohua was going to buy the club and had already made an offer.

We're still waiting for a reply from Big Lau. But then we see he's gone to buy a club; we'll have to bring him back and buy the chassis.

So The Sun became a messenger again, and that sweet girl made tens of thousands of pounds just from news fees, which was more than she made selling advertising space.

This time, Xie Yingying didn't reply to the other party's message. No matter how many emails Xiaotianniu sent, they were like stones sinking into the sea, leading Xiaotianniu to believe that her email account was broken.

Connecting to the main server is not an easy task.

Digging tunnels, threading cables, and camouflaging are all relatively easy tasks, but the most difficult part is connecting the cable ends to the server.

This requires access to a server room, which is staffed 24/7 and managed in a semi-military manner. Even if you cut off the power, they have backup power supplies to ensure uninterrupted power supply 24/7.

And it's different here than in Greater Paris. People in this country are laid-back, seemingly carefree.

But it's different for Big Eagle; it seems that a third of their servers are used in the military field.

When Xing Baohua received the report from Geng Rui's group, he felt something was off.

Generally, military and civilian networks are separate. Why does the Eagle Network mix military and civilian networks? Aren't they afraid that hackers will infiltrate the main server and steal their secrets?

Finally, they came up with a plan: to launch an attack on the Great Eagle Empire's main server via the external network, causing the server to crash. Since the software was faulty, the enemy had its own technical personnel who could fix it, so they had to work on the hardware.

Damaging the hardware caused the hardware protocol to break. Xiao Tianna was skilled in software systems, but lacked expertise in hardware. Therefore, Xing Baohua had to personally design and compromise the virus.

Then, Xiao Tianna used software to implant a virus into the system. After running for a period of time, the server virus would break out and damage the hardware.

Geng Rui's engineering team cut off the surrounding telephone lines, so that she could answer any call to IBM Eagle after-sales service.

After receiving the call, we arranged for someone to go and inspect and repair the equipment, and then reconnect the underground cable to the server.

People with yellow skin won't blend in easily, so change it to a skin tone. Change the face and exposed skin to a brownish-black.

He had a cloth wrapped around his head and a fake beard on, and he was an Indian engineer.

It's understandable that India, a country once colonized by the Great Eagle, would come to repair the machines, especially since India has made progress in electronics and software.

With the plan finalized, it was time to put it into action, and Xing Baohua continued to provide cover in the open. Coincidentally, Manchester City and Western United were in London for a match, competing for some kind of cup competition.

There were so many Manchester City fans that they almost overwhelmed the home fans.

This situation is rare. In fact, these fans mainly came to protest, trying to persuade Xing Baohua to give up buying Manchester City.

Xing Baohua also watched the game from the private room, accompanied by the chairman of Manchester City's board of directors, who kept talking about Manchester City's glorious history. One word revealed that they were broke, otherwise they would have swept the entire English island and the European Champions League long ago.

After hearing this, Xing Baohua could only say, "Wow, that's impressive. Are they trying to build a super team or a dream team?!"

How do teams make money?

Xing Baohua felt that this was a science in itself, with broadcasting fees being one part, player sales being another, ticket sales being another, and then there were club merchandise such as jerseys, etc.

By the way, the Great Eagles Football Team is a publicly listed company, so this aspect shouldn't be underestimated.

As a businessman, he buys a football team to make money. If he doesn't even know how the team makes money, he's just throwing money away.

Putting everything else aside, he knew that two people had cried while playing ball.

One is Wang, the richest man in China, and the other is Grandpa Zhao.

Especially Mr. Zhao, who threw away 50 million yuan to become the chairman of the board, but he didn't know how the money was spent, nor did he recognize any of the board members. He talked a lot, but few people listened.

Is the Eagles League rigged?

It seems that the system was changed a few years later and it was renamed the Premier League.

"Xing, may I know your plans?" asked the Manchester City chairman, who was watching the game with Xing Baohua in the VIP room.

"What plan?" Xing Baohua asked in surprise.

"Exactly, if you buy Manchester City and want to bring those players with you, I heard you have your eye on several players in Noodle Country?" the Manchester City chairman asked with a smile.

In fact, Xing Baohua really wanted to say, who said he wanted to buy Manchester City? Let alone Manchester City, he doesn't want to buy any club, let alone those players.

"Actually, I want to gather the best players in the world into one club. They don't necessarily all have to play, but the bench is full of world-class players, just like after the World Cup, when we assembled an all-star lineup." Xing Baohua figured that bragging was free, so he might as well say it.

If others said it, no one would believe it, but Xing Baohua is a recognized super-rich man with over 10 billion yuan in assets. He said selling a football team is as easy as breathing.

To put together an all-star roster, about 100 million US dollars would be enough.

The transfer fee is money earned by the team. The players they buy need to be paid salaries. This is how they support their players. Which player doesn't cost over a million US dollars? Even if they don't play, they still get a weekly wage.

It was too easy for Xing Baohua.

Just as the Manchester City chairman was trying to persuade Xing Baohua to buy the team while Manchester City was doing well and the price he was offering was good, a huge banner was suddenly unfurled in the stands.

They removed the English version and then cleverly added a Chinese version.
