Chapter 579: Being a Minority Shareholder

"Oh," Charles Capet enthusiastically swung his arm after hearing the final whistle. The scene of the 55th UEFA Champions League final had become a sea of joy.

Arsenal won 2-0 against Inter Milan to secure the club's first Champions League trophy, which was also the first for a London team!

"Yeah," Charles hugged Kristen Stewart who was beside him and then also embraced Shakira, who was congratulating him.

Players and substitutes had already rushed into the field to celebrate with the staff...

"Kristen, you and Shakira go ahead and enjoy dinner. I'm a bit too excited right now," Charles said after letting go of the two women.

"Alright," Kristen Stewart didn't mind too much as she wasn't a soccer fan!

Subsequently, some of the wealthy and famous individuals around the box also congratulated Charles.

"Congratulations, Charles, Arsenal is really strong," at this moment, Massimo Moratti, the chairman of Inter Milan, walked over.

Charles warmly shook his hand, "Inter Milan's performance was impressive, from the coach to the players, they did well enough. They just lacked a bit of luck!"

Massimo Moratti shook his head, "Look at Arsenal's lineup now: Suarez, Neymar, Sanchez, Mata, Fabregas, Xabi Alonso, Modric, Yaya Toure in the midfield and forward; In defense, there's Silva, Kompany, Ivanovic, David Luiz, and the goalie Neuer!"

"Inter Milan didn't lose unjustly," Massimo Moratti said, looking at the dejected Inter Milan players on the field, sighing in his heart.

By the time the championship award ceremony ended, an hour had already passed.

"Charles, everyone is dying to get back to London tonight to celebrate. Will you join us?" David Dein inquired.

Charles shook his head, "The celebration parade is in a week, I'll go back to London then. Once you return, quickly distribute the 5 million-pound bonus to everyone. Many will head to South Africa to participate in the World Cup soon after!"

David Dein nodded, "Don't worry, that's their motivation as well."

...

In the early morning hours, Charles, Kristen Stewart, and Shakira went to a high-end club in Madrid;

Shakira, being Latin, spent a lot of time in both Spain and Miami, where soccer culture is deeply rooted in South American countries and regions. Compared to soccer novice Kristen Stewart, Shakira had a deeper love and understanding of the sport!

"Charles, I thought you would celebrate tonight with the Arsenal players?" On the club's sofa, Shakira chatted with Charles about soccer.

"They flew back to London right after the award ceremony to share the joy with their families, friends, and fans," Charles laughed, "This is Arsenal's first Champions League trophy in the club's history!"

Shakira nodded, "I've spent quite a bit of time in Miami and know that the Miami Dolphins are also your team, very impressive."

"Miami Dolphins," Charles took a sip of his drink and looked at Shakira, "Are you interested in American football?"

"American football?" Shakira shook her head, "I've watched a few games, but I don't really understand it, why?"

"Miami has a large Latin American immigrant population. If you're interested, you could buy some shares of the Miami Dolphins and use your popularity to promote the team!"

Shakira is a Latin pop queen with significant influence across Central and South America. Florida is already deeply impacted by Latin culture. Shakira's popularity would undoubtedly help promote the Miami Dolphins, much like how LeBron James became a minority shareholder of Liverpool in the future!

"Hmm, really?" Shakira moved closer to Charles. "I'm interested, but the Miami Dolphins are quite expensive. You paid over $1 billion to acquire them at the time, so now..."

Charles smiled, looked at Shakira, "We'll value it at $1 billion. You can buy 2% of the shares for $20 million!"

"Really?" Shakira's eyes lit up, "Is that really possible?"

Charles nodded, "Of course, but you'll need to become the Miami Dolphins' brand ambassador!"

"No problem," Shakira wasn't foolish; the Miami Dolphins were definitely worth more than $1 billion now, and linking up with Charles Capet was certainly a good move.

Saying this, Shakira glanced at Kristen Stewart, who hadn't returned from the washroom yet, and kissed Charles on the cheek, "I'll arrange a concert at Bank of America Stadium then!"

"Sure, have your financial manager get in touch with the management of CSE Miami Dolphins. I'll inform them in advance," Miami is a major sports city, but the competition is fierce with clubs for football, baseball, and basketball.

Gaining support from the Latin community is very important for the club!

"Yeah, what are you two talking about?" Kristen Stewart, slightly tipsy, walked out of the washroom.

"Did you throw up?" Charles stood up to help Kristen Stewart sit on the sofa, "How much did you drink before I came?"

"Not too much, really," Shakira checked her watch; it was only 3 a.m., "just a couple of hours!"

"Alright, let's head back to the hotel, it's pretty late," Charles said.

Kristen Stewart hugged Charles as they walked out of the club, still smiling and waving at Shakira, "Shakira, you must visit me in the US next time!"

"Sure, you know I spend a lot of time in Miami," Shakira waved back.

"Bye, Charles!"

"Bye!"

Afterwards, Charles and Kristen Stewart headed back to the Westin Palace Hotel in Madrid!

"Charles, do you know how amazing Shakira's hips are? Truly eye-opening," Kristen Stewart leaned on Charles's chest in the bathtub, tempting him.

"And? That should be something men care about," Charles chuckled, squeezing her breast.

Kristen Stewart shook her head with her eyes closed, "I've realized I might be bisexual; I like both men and women!"

"You've mentioned that before," Charles calmly responded, "Have you had girlfriends before?"

"Uh, no," Kristen Stewart opened her eyes.

Charles pouted, "Then how do you know you like women too?"

"Oh, it's just a feeling, an urge!"

"Alright, rest for now. I don't mind if you pursue women," Charles yawned, getting up to sleep...
