Chapter 716: Making money is not a problem for Xiangyang
11 million fixed, 1 million floating terms.
This is the price Evergrande gave to Shanghai East Asia Club for the transfer of Zhang Linfan.
In the Chinese Super League, which has yet to really take off the "Golden Dollar Football", this amount of money is not a small expense for East Asian clubs.
Although China's famous coach Xu Genbao wants to sharpen his sword for ten years to create the so-called "China Manchester United".
However, since winning the Chinese Second Division Championship in 2007 and successfully entering the First Division, the road to the Super League has been somewhat bumpy.
In particular, the club's consecutive fourth place finish failed to surpass the league, and after the introduction of foreign players, the club was under great financial pressure.
Both Xu Genbao himself and the head coach General Fan have some expectations for this transfer.
After all, the club has to survive.
After the season ends, Zhang Linfan is not the only player who is ready to be sold.
Wang Jiayu, Jiang Zhipeng, Cao Yunding, Gu Chao and other key players in the team have received offers from other clubs.
"Director Xu, I think Xiao Zhang and the others can wait." General Fan said whatever he wanted in front of his mentor.
Having played for Crystal Palace back then, he knows if the rumors this time are true.
What does it mean to these young people in front of us?
"Of course I know what you are thinking." Xu Genbao also attaches great importance to the results of youth training. How could he not want the young men he brought out to embark on a new journey? It's a high stage.
"But, is this reliable? You didn't contact them?"
"How could I contact them?" General Fan couldn't laugh or cry, and didn't know what to say.
His connections abroad do not reach the level of specific implementation.
He is even more different from Xiang Yang.
“If I had known that such a Chinese would take over Liverpool, I should have joined Liverpool back then.” While smiling bitterly, he actually mentioned a past event.
He is the man who once refused to join Liverpool!
This is true.
At Crystal Palace, he was not only named the best player in the team, but also the captain.
After Liverpool reached out for the football, the contact between the two parties has reached the stage of agreeing on specific contract matters.
It was precisely the fact that the contract required him not to participate in the 2000 Asian Cup that made General Fan say no to Liverpool.
But unfortunately, they only reached the semi-finals that year.
Looking back now, I can’t say I regret it, but if I had joined Liverpool back then, I would have more or less connections that I can use now.
"By the way, Director Xu, Xiao Gao should be there for the 1/8th game in two days." Suddenly thinking of this incident, General Fan became more energetic.
Gao Hongbo is also Xu Genbao’s beloved disciple.
The current head coach of the adult team.
If he comes to build a bridge, then the probability of seeing Xiang Yang communicating face to face will definitely be much greater.
“How could I forget him.”
When mentioning Gao Hongbo, Xu Genbao also had a hint of pride on his face.
"Chelsea is really interested in that player named Zhang Linfan?" On the other side, Xiang Yang, who was communicating enthusiastically with Chen Shi, took the time to ask Little John.
There is no use asking Bea Shaffer about this matter.
Like herself, she doesn't understand football.
"Really." Little John smiled and nodded: "I heard from Chelsea's scouts that this player has a good defensive awareness and a certain offensive awareness. Although his speed and skills are huge, There is room for improvement, but he is a rare wing player in China."
"Wide player?" Xiang Yang smiled slightly curiously: "Isn't that the same position as Mbappe?"
"I'm a full-back."
Little John, who was speechless by Xiang Yangzheng, corrected his friend's mistake with disgust, pointed at his chest and said: "I like to play football the most. The location is the same.”
"Don't you like to be a striker?" Xiang Yang asked with a smile as he walked.
To say that they play wild football, there is no technique or tactics to speak of.
Everyone wants to stand at the front and shoot.
Words like "chasing back" and "defense" have never been shown in their games.
Of course, when it comes to them playing football, the word that appears most often is "explosion".
It just needs to be preceded by "being".
"Are there any other Chinese players who are being favored?" Xiang Yang then asked.
“I didn’t ask for specifics.”
Little John shook his head. He knew this because an inspection group composed of scouts from several clubs came to Guangzhou and lived with them. I happened to meet him at the hotel in the morning and asked casually.
Who said that he had met some Chelsea staff when he went to and from the club to discuss CFT business.
Looks familiar.
But to be honest, he was surprised that some Chinese players were really being targeted for inspection.
The last game he watched in Beijing was so boring that he almost fell asleep.
It might as well be Fa B.
"Speaking of which, Xiang." Smiling at Xiang Yang, the sly little John asked curiously: "You care about this matter, do you want to pick peaches?"
< br>
"Picking peaches?" Xiang Yang blinked blankly.
Seeing his friend pretending to be stupid, Little John smiled "hehe" and said, "Say, are you asking them to come over to find potential Chinese players first, and then let Liverpool sign them?"
" Don't hide it from me." Little John added, as if he had seen through his friend.
"This" Xiangyang thought about it for a moment.
That’s not impossible.
But Liverpool's transfer is no longer the same as before. Xiang Yang, who plans to hire Edwards as sports director after the club completes the acquisition, will not easily touch the precious authority in the hands of his subordinates.
He doesn’t want to imitate Abu.
"When the time comes, I will ask Edwards to send someone over to investigate."
Xiang Yang said cautiously and quietly.
It wasn’t that he was shy about the presence of China’s top leaders, but that he was worried that Bea Shaffer behind him would be jealous when she heard his new lover’s name coming out of his mouth.
A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea.
Guessing is impossible.
Take Liu Qianqian as an example.
The two of them are so familiar with each other, but if they need to be apart for a while to meet again due to business, he feels that he has discovered something strange about his wife.
Life is so refreshing~
"Mr. Xiang, Mr. Rang, you two are still discussing football." Seeing that the two people were quite addicted to whispering to each other, Chen Shi, who had just brushed his face slightly with Xiang Yang's words, quickly adjusted. come over. "Yes, such a gratifying and congratulatory thing is really rare." Xiang Yang nodded without hesitation.
From his perspective, the more young Chinese players who can go out and achieve certain results, the more they will contribute to HYS’s future influence in Chinese sports. big.
As for taking away the players that Evergrande Club is interested in, what impact will it have on this club?
Sorry.
Xiang Yang asked himself that he didn't have the spare time.
First of all, he is not a living Bodhisattva.
Secondly, it’s not like he has nothing to do.
Why worry about others?
Is it necessary to use "Mother's Heart" in a place like this?
"It seems that our Guangzhou Football Club has a very high vision." Chen Shi said, preparing to call his secretary to call Liu Hengzhuo, the general manager of Evergrande Football Club.
"The captain of the Olympic team must be highly valued by various clubs. It is not surprising that the scouts of these clubs want to focus on investigating."
But follow and listen. When the words came out of Xiang Yang's mouth, he stopped moving again.
As the saying goes, "Listen to the words and the sound of the gongs and drums."
Anyone with a brain understands the true meaning of this sentence.
Of course Chen Shi is a smart person, and he is far sharper than the average person.
Xiang Yang was not exaggerating Lin Fan.
But he is expressing his disdain for Evergrande.
In this case, there is no need to invite Liu Hengzhuo over again.
Oddly enough, Xiangyang has a good relationship with Shenzhen City, but why does he feel a little out of place as soon as he arrives in Guangzhou?
"Mr. Xiang, I just went to find out from the person in charge of sports that our city is the only city in China that has retained the "amateur sports school system.""
Showing a habitual smile, Chen Shi said : "The 12 districts all have their own football teams. The competitions held are much higher than the campus football league you are advocating."
"Oh? Really, then I want to do this well. Understand."
Xiang Yang said with a smile.
But in fact, there are sports schools with football as the main sport in China, not in the city of Guangdong.
There are similar sports schools in the northwest, but due to funding issues, the amateur sports schools at the county level have basically existed in name only.
But in total, there are no less than 40 sports schools with the tradition of football.
However, there are also great differences between the two parties.
So, Chen Shi’s words are not wrong.
"Chen Shi, can we inject funds and sponsor this sports school competition? Let more schools join in." Xiang Yang said to Chen Shi.
"Okay, of course you are welcome." Chen Shi said with a smile:
"Not only can you participate in sponsorship, but you can also learn about our purely private amateur club. In this area, our promotion effect is very good. "
Every year, the Guangzhou Football Association selects and forms the "Guangzhou Youth Representative Team" among amateur clubs and amateur sports schools.
Every weekend, training and competitions will be held in a dedicated football base.
Xiang Yang had read the information about winning the "100 Teams Cup" in the capital.
If HYS and Evergrande compete to sponsor Guangzhou youth sports competitions, wouldn't it be able to better promote development?
Besides, whoever talks about sports, only football.
"Mr. Xiang, we have held long-distance running events in Guangzhou for 10 years. Cycling has also developed well here. You should look more at us. After all, we are also a first-tier city. Well. In terms of competitiveness, it is no worse than Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen.” The public's enthusiasm for sports will be aroused. As for the subsequent launch of individual sports events, it will be a matter of course. I can assure Chen Shi that HYS will not be absent. ”
“ Really?" Chen Shi was stunned.
Why did this young man suddenly become so talkative again?
“How about this, Chen Shi, since the long-distance running event has been held for 10 years, how about working hard to develop it into a marathon? It just so happens that our HYS will host the Xiamen Marathon with ANTA next year, from the organization to the preparation of the event Yes, there are some. Besides, the Asian Games also has marathon races."
Chen Shi looked at Xiang Yang and thought: "You mean, make it a long-term event?"
< br>"If we can get support, no matter how long it takes, we at HYS will fully support it."
"Okay! That's great!"
Chen Shi's voice was a little excited.
It’s not his fault.
Compared to a football club, the direct and indirect economic effects that a successful marathon can bring cover all aspects.
Not just the game itself.
The city’s tourism culture, catering, accommodation, transportation, and even entertainment and shopping.
From the perspective of comprehensive influence in promoting the entire city.
Evergrande Club is just a promotional business card for a company.
The marathon is the city’s promotional business card.
If you want to hold a large-scale marathon with wide coverage, you really need the brand's full sponsorship and guarantee.
In this way, more people can be attracted to participate.
"Chen Shi, if you are worried, we at HYS can directly contribute to advance the copyright income." Looking at the smiling Chen Shi, Xiang Yang extended another olive branch.
The income from the marathon is divided into three parts.
Copyright (to the city), B2C link and B2B link for end consumers.
As the organizer of the event, Xiangyang certainly wants to take care of everything.
The investment in hosting a marathon ranges from 3 million to 30 million.
As for the direct income
Next year’s Xiama is expected to be 150 million.
So this business is profitable~
Before Chen Shi could reply, he learned through the translator what Xiangyang was talking about. Bi Shafer's eyes suddenly lit up.
Event organization, sponsorship, media broadcast, participant consumption, etc.
All the links included here echo one by one with HYS, INS, as well as the new broadcast plan for UTMB events, the acquisition of broadcast websites, and the enterprise product called DJ that he invested in.
Also, go out and sell some sponsorship spots to companies with good connections.
This.
It’s round.
