Chapter 226: Shanghai Fantasy
Liu Ben, a die-hard soccer fan, naturally dreamed of one day becoming a great soccer star or personally forming a team and leading them to the pinnacle of the world.
Although this ideal was once merely a fantasy in Liu Ben’s mind, and realizing it would require him to have the attributes of a protagonist, otherwise, these dreams would remain just fantasies.
However, ever since meeting Wu Hao, a classmate with invincible traits, and successfully sparking Wu Hao’s slight interest in soccer, Wu Hao not only invested to let him form a soccer club independently, but also made a huge acquisition, spending so much money that it left the local citizens in a daze.
For Liu Ben, though, this wasn’t the most important thing. What mattered most to him was that he truly achieved his dream of personally managing a soccer club. Liu Ben’s current situation perfectly echoed Ma Zong’s famous saying: “A person should have dreams, just in case they come true one day.”
And now Liu Ben had achieved his life’s dream. Although it was thanks to Wu Hao’s influence, as the saying goes, “When one person attains the Dao, their chickens and dogs rise to heaven.” Since Wu Hao, the protagonist with invincible traits, had a good relationship with Liu Ben as classmates, naturally, Liu Ben could benefit.
“Your Tianfu Club should still be hiring foreign players, right?” Wu Hao responded with a light chuckle to Liu Ben’s excitement and then asked.
“Not yet! I’m still looking for foreign players, but my team is just preparing to play in the second division league. Some foreign players aren’t too willing to join such a small second-division team,” Liu Ben replied, feeling quite helpless. Although his team was under Wu Hao’s name, Wu Hao didn’t directly manage it. The team was affiliated with the machinery plant, which acted as the team’s sponsor.
Because Wu Hao didn’t directly oversee the team, Liu Ben had always been thrifty with the club’s expenses, not splurging just because the team was linked to Wu Hao’s machinery plant, part of Wu Hao’s business empire.
