"Your Highness, I'm sorry, I'm so excited to meet you..."
"You've done well recently, Cristiano. Also, congratulations on your first goal. I didn't go to the scene at that time, but I watched the game on TV."
After Barron returned to London, he went to Manchester and invited all the Manchester United players to a dinner together.
During this time, he also met this young man for the first time since Ronaldo joined Manchester United.
At this time, Ronaldo was still a little green. After all, he was just 18 years old. He had only played football in a Portuguese club before. Coming to Manchester United was also his first time to enter a football league platform that could cover the world.
Compared to when he first came to Manchester United, Ronaldo's English has become more fluent. In the beginning, he was shy and spoke very little during interviews after the game.
On November 1, in Manchester United's home game against Portsmouth, Ronaldo scored his first goal after joining the top club.
This is also something worth celebrating for him.
Of course, although he would give the young man some encouragement, Barron would not praise him too obviously. He even went out of his way to talk to all the players of Manchester United.
The young Duke's friendly behavior also made the players of the entire Manchester United club very happy and proud.
Compared with the previous season, it can be said that the attention paid to Manchester United increased a lot in the 2003-2004 season.
The main reason is that Barron, the new boss who is the Duke of England, always tries to make time to go to Old Trafford to watch Manchester United's home games, so many media will report on this.
However, Manchester United's brand management company has not been able to do much in a short period of time since its establishment. Its main focus now is on building the official website of Manchester United Club to make it more interactive with fans around the world.
At the same time, the official account of Manchester United Club has been set up on the Woaw website, which occasionally releases some player training highlights.
During the mid-season break, that is, between August and September next year, Manchester United will be organized to carry out their first overseas trip. This time we are preparing for Manchester United's trip to Asia. From now on, we have already contacted companies there.
It is expected that Manchester United's Asian tour will include visits to East Asian countries with relatively strong economic strength, such as China, Japan and South Korea.
Of course, the Manchester United Brand Management Company will also carry out some packaging and promotion for players with better images among Manchester United club players, such as Cristiano Ronaldo.
In fact, when it comes down to it, it is also to develop commercial operations among female fans and sell more jerseys and other peripheral products.
In the previous renovation of Old Trafford, in addition to expanding the area of the stands and increasing the number of VIP boxes, the commercial area outside the stadium was also renovated to look more stylish and modern, and the business area was increased.
In addition, Manchester United has taken back the operating rights of all commercial areas of the stadium. These business areas will be directly operated by Manchester United's brand management company to increase the club's revenue.

After a period of consideration, the Weston family finally accepted Barron's offer and agreed to sell Primark, a cheap clothing chain under their Associated British Foods Group, for £350 million.
I am afraid that this condition will be agreed to in the end. One of the reasons is that the exchange rate of pound sterling against the US dollar has also risen a lot in recent times. In just one year, the exchange rate of pound sterling against the US dollar has risen from around 1.5 to 1.72 in early December, a cumulative increase of 14.6%.
A month ago, at the beginning of November, the exchange rate of the pound to the US dollar was as low as 1.6566. It rose by nearly 4% in one month, which is rare in the foreign exchange market.
Of course, Baron certainly cannot come up with this money now. After all, his operation on the EUR/USD trading pair has not yet been completed. In addition, because of the purchase of Google and Apple shares, he has almost mortgaged all his assets.
But this is not a big problem, after all, the investment in the EUR/USD trading pair will end soon.
Moreover, an acquisition transaction like this cannot be completed in a short period of time, so the funds do not have to be paid immediately.
"They are such beautiful little babies, so adorable."
Barron and Bonnie came to Viscount Bute's mansion together, and in front of them were two babies who had just been born...
From the obvious features, it can be seen that this is a pair of twins, a boy and a girl.
Well, when Barron was still in America, the child that Viscount and Lady Bute had conceived through technological means had been successfully born.
Just like the results of the previous examinations, this is a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. Bonnie had visited them before, and this time when he returned to London, Barron was the first to come and celebrate.
Viscount Bute looked at the two babies with a very loving look, but it must be said that this scene made Barron feel a little weird.
After all, Viscount Bute and his wife Chris are the biological parents of the babies, but at the moment the Viscountess is still pregnant, and the baby in her belly... is Barron's.
How should I put it? This scene is a little bit confusing.
No wonder Bonnie's smile seemed a bit forced...
"How long will it take? I mean the due date..."
Seeing Chris's slightly unhappy expression, Barron immediately said:
"I think it's next May?"
After hearing what he said, the Viscountess smiled a little:
"It's rare that you still remember, my Lord Duke."
At this time, Bonnie had already left because she was still busy at Giant Studio. However, Barron felt that she just didn't like the atmosphere just now. He could understand this.
Viscount Bute was very considerate and found an excuse to leave temporarily, giving Barron and the Viscountess space to talk.
"Come, let me listen to our daughter's heartbeat..."
Chris is pregnant with a girl, and she has already gone to the hospital for a check-up.
I saw Barron lower his head, put it close to his stomach, and listen carefully.
This scene brought a maternal smile to the Viscountess's face.
Often the fetus can hear the heartbeat when it is four or five months old, and Barron's hearing is so acute that when he listened, he could actually hear the faint beating sound like a horse's hoof.
Rebecca was pregnant with a daughter, and Chris was also pregnant with a daughter. Barron even had some doubts. Could it be that he still looked like his father-in-law? The first two children were both girls. Although he liked girls very much, the chances were a bit...
"If it's next May, I can still attend Jenny and her family's wedding."
When Barron went to New York this time, he had learned that Jenny Booth and John Smith's wedding was scheduled for June next year.
In this way, after Mrs. Booth gives birth and recovers a little, she can go to America to attend their wedding without any impact.
"Aren't you invited too? I heard you just bought a private plane. I'm going to take that plane when the time comes."
"Of course, honey, uh, if Mr. Booth doesn't object."
