Cao Baming took a deep breath and then turned to look at Wu Xue, who was sitting beside him. Her expression at this moment seemed quite cute.
"Alas, I didn't expect it, Max actually took the initiative to attack. He still has some courage."
Cao Baming said, looking at the large black characters on the screen. At the same time, Wu Xue also cast a curious glance, looking at the screen of the mobile phone in Cao Baming's hand.
The large black characters on the screen read the title of this article: "Max Reaches Private Agreement with Manchester City, Will Proactively Breach Contract for Transfer!"
Wu Xue's expression became even more curious. What was this, taking the initiative? This guy clearly ran away! This was no small liquidated damages!
"Won't he be punished for doing this? He's paying the liquidated damages, and we're profiting, right?"
"That's right. While it's said like that, he still took the first step. We lost in terms of face!"
Cao Baming originally intended to proactively remove Max from the team or at least find ways to make him leave on his own when he took over Manchester United. But the result was that before he could even act, the other party was voluntarily leaving.
Max's actions surprised Cao Baming greatly, and it even gave him a new sense of fear, because there were really not many people who could surprise him.
But this guy Max was ultimately too much. He always did things that surprised him, and this kind of thing was very eerie.
Cao Baming took a deep breath again and then explained his thoughts to Wu Xue beside him.
How did Max come up with such a large sum of money? And why would Manchester City agree to it? Cao Baming didn't fully understand. He only knew that Max's own company's stock price had quadrupled during the recent hype of the artificial intelligence concept.
His main source of funds was definitely not the team, but his company. Although his company was under his brother's name, the two of them were still using the same identity until now. Very few people actually understood that they were two different individuals.
Since things had come to this, Cao Baming couldn't worry about so much anymore. Just then, a waiter slowly walked over from a doorway in the distance, carrying a large tray. On the tray were all the dishes ordered for the evening.
"Then let's eat first and see how things go later."
Cao Baming said this, but in reality, he had already devised a plan within a few seconds, a plan that would ultimately require Mike to help him execute.
Therefore, while eating, he quietly typed a text message on his phone and sent it to Mike. He quickly received a reply.
After finishing their dinner, Cao Baming opened his phone again and clicked on the message window that had not been closed. The page automatically refreshed. This time, the click-through rate and readership had increased by thousands of times!
This was not too surprising for Cao Baming. He had already understood when he saw this news that it would definitely go viral very quickly. If you were to ask what kind of news spread the fastest in the football world's public opinion, it would be this kind of news.
After all, even he himself was shocked when he saw this news, let alone the fans' reaction!
At this moment, the click-through rate of this news had already reached over 90 million, and this number would soon break through to over 100 million.
After finishing their meal and paying the bill, Cao Baming and Wu Xue returned to the car. Cao Baming glanced at the time, and it was exactly 7:50 PM.
Dinner hadn't taken too long this time, and the sky was still bright.
Although the brightness couldn't compare to broad daylight at noon, they could still see the sun in the distance.
Cao Baming's mind was still on a specific time: 8:00 PM that evening, because at that time, Nottingham Forest Football Club would release their latest transfer news.
There were only 10 minutes left until this moment. As the car started, he glanced at the time again, and it showed only 7 minutes remaining.
If it succeeded, seeing Max leave would be explosive enough, exciting enough! Then he could explode right where he stood!
Cao Baming was already getting excited in advance. Who was even more excited than him, or even more so, were the members of Nottingham Forest Club. At this moment, not only the club's top management had learned the news, but some members within the club had also learned of this information to varying degrees.
They had already started discussing amongst themselves privately. With Cao Baming about to transfer to their club, what would the next season look like?
As a Premier League team, they had played against Arsenal quite a few times in the past two seasons. The biggest feeling and experience from those matches was the sense of dread that Cao Baming instilled in each of them.
And soon, the person who had given them nightmares would be playing for them on the same team, training on the same field, and even showering in the same locker room.
In their minds, Cao Baming was no longer just a person, he had long surpassed the concept of a person. He was a monster, an unbelievable monster.
But as teammates, things should be different now!
If a monster could fight for you, if he could be your trusted assistant, then what difficulties could stop your progress? The answer was none!!!
The car started. Cao Baming estimated the time, expecting to get back in a little over ten minutes. However, if they hurried, they could still make it back earlier, perhaps half the time!
As he spoke, Cao Baming slammed on the accelerator. The needle on the speedometer moved rapidly, quickly pointing to 180, and it didn't stop moving.
Wu Xue was even startled by this, but she also understood that Cao Baming didn't care about speeding.
At this moment, there were almost no vehicles on the road, and soon the Lamborghini supercar driven by Cao Baming directly exceeded 220 kilometers per hour.
