"Joan, have some faith in yourself and in me." The young bald man stood up from his seat, his eyes gleaming. "Alves is just the first step. With the summer renovations, Barcelona will be completely transformed. Believe me, we'll earn back all the money we spent on Alves next season!"

Guardiola is cheering on Laporta.
Meanwhile, in Li Shiguang's office, several people were already laughing hysterically. Simone had even fallen to the ground laughing so hard he couldn't get up, and even the usually serious Rivaldo and Allen were laughing so hard they had tears in their eyes.
This is absolutely unexpected.
Nobody expected it.
Li Shiguang had originally planned to reject a deal, but he managed to make 43 million euros from Florentino's arch-rival.
A few minutes later, Allen, who had already learned that Florentino also wanted to buy Alves, was the first to react.
His smile faded, and his expression turned somewhat worried.
"Boss, Florentino initially proposed buying Dani, but we ended up selling him to Barcelona. Won't this affect your relationship with Florentino?"
Regarding this point.
Li Shiguang had already thought of a solution while talking to Laporta. He waved his hand and said confidently, "Don't worry, I will call him personally to explain. If he really insists on spending money at Leeds United, we have alternatives here."
"A replacement? Sun?" Rivaldo was somewhat puzzled, after all, there was still a gap in individual strength between Sun Jihai and Alves.
Li Shiguang shook his head and looked at Allen: "Of course not. Have you forgotten Marcelo, who helped Real Sociedad return to La Liga this season? How much did we pay for him? 6 million euros or 7 million euros?"
Alan, who had all the club's statistics memorized, immediately replied, "8 million euros, boss."
Li Shiguang gently rubbed his chin, his eyes filled with a smile: "Yes...it's this kid. He's the starting right-back for the newly promoted team. Selling him for 20 million euros isn't unreasonable, is it?"
“Boss, I remember him.” Rivaldo shook his head, a hint of worry on his face. “When you just decided to sell Dani, I thought you would bring him back to the team next season.”
"Let's discuss it further depending on the specific circumstances... There's no rush now."
After leaving those words, Li Shiguang stood up, waved, and signaled everyone to end their overtime work and go home to be with their wives.
But he had just stood up.
The phone, which Allen hadn't had time to put away, rang again on the coffee table.
Allen glanced down and saw that it was Ron, the scouting director, calling, so he immediately pressed the answer button.
The phone was not on speakerphone.
But Ron's loud voice still made sure everyone present could hear it.
"Allen! Why isn't the boss answering his phone?! You need to get in touch with him right now, I've discovered a genius, a genius we absolutely must sign immediately!"
