Chapter 91 The Shadow of the Famous Tree
The bright moon is hanging in the sky, the breeze is gentle, and at night, it is finally no longer hot. In front of me, Gao Peng, Zhang Ao and other people are dancing wildly. Hu Xian and Ren Yuefeng are eating barbecue and whispering. Talking.
I could faintly hear the chirping of crickets. Looking at the scene in front of me, Li Dongling took a sip of wine. In a few years, when everyone present will get married and start a business, I’m afraid it will be difficult to imagine such a scene again. Maybe, when we get together again it won't feel like tonight.
Yao Luoying, who was dripping with sweat, sat next to Li Dongling. Li Dongling could smell the fragrance emanating from her body.
“I haven’t been so happy for a long time,” Yao Luoying leaned on Li Dongling’s shoulder and looked lazily at the group of people in front of her who were still twisting their bodies to vent their energy. She remembered the scene where the two of them were stiff during the dance just now. Still she couldn't help laughing, "Have you never danced this dance before?"
"You are the same, you stepped on my feet just now!" Li Dongling said, turning away from Yao Luoying who was leaning on his shoulder.
Yao Luoying snorted and changed into a more comfortable position, "I used to learn violin. My mother wanted me to join the orchestra, but in the end she didn't get her wish."
After struggling in the courtyard until midnight, everyone dispersed. Yao Luoying was dragged back by several sisters from the family courtyard. Li Dongling asked Yang Zhigao to drive them back.
Dangling Hi-Tech has released two products since its establishment. The first one is the mechanical silver sable mouse, which has created a new benchmark in the mouse industry.
The second product is the electronic pet machine that is popular all over the world. This product has greatly increased the popularity of Donglin Hi-Tech. The most important thing is to solve the financial problem.
Ren Yuefeng acts steadily, but that does not mean that he acts slowly. On the contrary, he has strong execution ability. Although he felt that it was a bit risky to spend a huge amount of endorsement fees and choose an 18-year-old player as the spokesperson, he still carried out the execution.
A Chinese face is walking on the streets of Eindhoven, the fourth largest city in the Netherlands. Eindhoven is the Netherlands and one of the four major technology cities in Europe. Eindhoven High-tech Park Companies and practitioners from more than fifty regions gather here all year round, all of which are inseparable from Philips.
A company can really change a city. When Lu Chao was walking on the streets of Eindhoven, he could see Philips billboards everywhere, and the rest were DSM Pharmaceuticals. These two companies supported Covering half of the sky of Eindhoven.
Entering a coffee shop, Lu Chao took a look at the time. Yesterday he was still in the port city. He had just completed his resignation and was about to join his old boss Ren Yuefeng. However, after a phone call, he arrived by plane. Netherlands.
Lu Chao is Ren Yuefeng's old subordinate. He was almost single-handedly trained and promoted by Ren Yuefeng. When he received a call from Ren Yuefeng asking him to help, Lu Chao resigned without any hesitation. And go.
After following Ren Yuefeng for so many years, Lu Chao knew Ren Yuefeng's character and would definitely not cheat him. At first, his academic qualifications were not high, but he was still chosen by Ren Yuefeng and recruited and trained. After these years of experience, he has become He is Ren Yuefeng's right-hand man, and he can stand alone.
Lu Chao came to Europe this time mainly to set up an office in London for Tanglin High-tech to handle Tanglin High-tech’s affairs in Europe.
When establishing an office in Europe, Ren Yuefeng could only rest assured that someone like Lu Chao, who was familiar with the situation and knew the basics, applied to Li Dongling and hired Lu Chao at a high price.
But after Lu Chao came to Europe, the first thing he had to do was to surprise himself. He found a spokesperson for Donglin Hi-tech’s new product, and the money was worth millions of dollars. Lu Chao No matter how I thought about it, it didn't feel like Ren Yuefeng's style. It was too risky, but Lu Chao had to complete whatever Ren Yuefeng told him.
"Lu, Martins will be here in ten minutes. You have twenty minutes to talk to him. As for whether the negotiation can be successful or not, it has nothing to do with me."
After Lu Chao sat down, a bald white man in his 30s or 40s told Lu Chao that this was the middleman Lu Chao had contacted in advance. To put it nicely, it was a public relations company. Although they all hate middlemen, sometimes, it is true that And they can't do without brokers. This is a group of people that people love and hate, but vampires really take money to do things.
"I understand Fenold, we will still have opportunities to deal with each other in the future, I am in Europe!" Lu Chao picked up a letter and pushed it in front of the middleman named Fenold.
When Fenold touched his wallet, his face suddenly showed joy. He opened it and looked at it. There was a thousand dollars. This payment was definitely generous. It was just an appointment to meet with the player's agent. Although it cost a lot It's a favor, but he earned it with blood.
"Dear Lu, I wish you all the best. Fenold is always ready to serve you!"
After Fenold left, a few minutes later, an old man in his fifties appeared. He walked into the coffee shop and then came to Lu Chao.
When he saw Lu Chao's face, Martins raised his eyebrows. He seemed to be surprised by Lu Chao's face and said bluntly, "I'm sorry, I don't know which football club in Asia you are from, but Ronaldo is not available for the time being." I will leave Europe to play football, this is the center of world football!”
“I am not from a football club!”
Hearing this, Martins was even less interested and turned around! About to leave.
Seeing Martins' actions, Lu Chao cursed secretly. The old man didn't even want to hear what he had to say and left.
“We are here to represent Ronaldo!”
Martins paused for a moment, but still did not look back. In his eyes, Ronaldo is definitely a football genius and will become a superstar in the future. Signing an endorsement deal with an unknown small company at this time will not be cost-effective for Ronaldo in the future. Of course Another point is that the endorsement fee is small, and he, the middleman, doesn’t get much commission. "Eight million dollars!"
Lu Chao's voice attracted the attention of many people in the cafe and made Martins stop.
“Are you telling the truth?!”
Seeing Martins looking directly at him and breathing a little heavier, Lu Chao changed at this time. So rested, "What do you think I'm here for?!"
"Sorry, I was rude just now. Mainly because in the past, very few... Asian companies would come to Europe to find spokespersons for advertising!"
Martins is flexible and flexible, and he has more than a hundred good players under his command. Players have different personalities, and there are many thorns and some stars among them. Martins must have a few tricks to make these players stay on track.
But what Martins said is also true. Domestic companies have not yet gone abroad to find European football spokespersons or even sponsor football events. This has never happened.
Unlike later generations, although domestic football has played well in the world series, the sponsorship fees are huge. From the five major European leagues to the Champions League and then to the World Cup, there is no time when there are not overwhelming advertisements from mainland companies on the stadium.
“I don’t know who your company is?!” Martins was still cautious, for fear of encountering a scammer company.
"Donngling Hi-Tech!"
Seeing Martins' confused expression, Lu Chao added, "We have launched a silver sable mouse that won the lawsuit against Microsoft, and an electronic pet machine!"
When he heard that Microsoft had won the lawsuit, Martins was a little in awe. When he heard that it was the company that developed the electronic pet machine, Martins' face was already full of joy.
“Oh, that’s crazy. Your company developed the electronic pet machine?
You don’t know how much my players like it. They even fight to play with it. It affects the training matches!
And my daughter, in order to buy a limited edition electronic pet machine, do you know how much she spent on the black market? It was 650 pounds. That machine cost 650 pounds on the black market! ”
Speaking of this, Martins was happy and gritted his teeth. He was happy that the company that produced the electronic pet machine asked his players to cooperate, but he was gritting his teeth because that one machine was speculated and sold on the black market. For 650 pounds, he felt that it was darker than the brokerage industry!
“So, your company is looking for Ronaldo to endorse the electronic pet machine? "Martins asked with a frown. It's not that he can't be an agent, but he always feels that with Ronaldo's style of play and image, it seems that the style of being an agent for such a thing does not match.
"No! "
"It is a new product developed by Donglin Hi-Tech, the Shenzhou digital cordless phone. This is the world's first digital cordless phone. It will be officially announced soon. We need Ronaldo to represent this product. ”
Lu Chao told Martins what Tanglin High-tech Headquarters had told him, "We have designed a goal celebration call for Ronaldo. After every goal, as long as Ronaldo makes a celebration gesture, we will give him a corresponding bonus. Every time Two thousand dollars at a time!"
Lu Chao made a gesture for Martins, with his thumb and little finger extended, the other three fingers retracted, and his hand placed on his face to represent a phone call. This is Tanglin Hitech needs Ronaldo's actions after scoring on the pitch.
A player, even if he is a shooting machine, will only score a few hundred goals at most in his career. Every time he scores a goal and celebrates, Tanglin Hi-Tech pays two thousand US dollars, which seems to cost hundreds of thousands of US dollars. But think about it, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to sponsor all the highlights of a player's career, is it still expensive? !
Martins nodded, it was just a celebration. After scoring a goal, you can still get money for celebrating, so it is not a big deal.
“Donggin Hi-Tech is really willing to pay US$8 million in endorsement fees?!”
This is what Martins is most concerned about. Ronaldo has talent. The Brazilian football national team can see this, and other European giants can also see it. However, no one can guarantee whether the talent can be realized.
What is the concept of eight million US dollars in endorsement fees? Not to mention that Ronaldo has not turned his talent into strength. Even if he becomes a star, this endorsement fee will definitely shock the entire European football world. You know In the past few years, Michael Jackson, who has an amazing global influence, endorsed Pepsi-Cola, and the endorsement fee was only three million US dollars. It is conceivable that Ronaldo's endorsement fee will shock people.
“Eight million US dollars, endorsement of Shenzhou digital cordless phones for ten years!”
