Chapter 717 Xiang Yang invites General Fan to join Liverpool
Compared to the entertainment industry.
Sports is the real huge profit.
As the conditions for hosting events will be gradually relaxed, cooperation between operating companies and host cities around various events will be reached.
In previous years, there were only a dozen marathon events in China but in the future there will be more than a thousand marathon events.
So much so that even the Athletics Association had to issue a document requiring the same operating company not to hold events for two consecutive weeks, but it still failed to prevent marathon events of varying quality from blooming across the country.
The main reason is that this kind of competition is really profitable.
The kind with eyes closed.
Compared with the investment of hundreds of millions and the appeal of celebrities to the box office market, the threshold for holding a marathon is too low.
The income is very guaranteed.
In addition to visible income such as registration fees and charity quotas.
Even taking photos is a big income.
Anyone who has run a marathon knows that race photos must be downloaded from a dedicated platform.
If you want a clear watermark, you have to pay extra.
Some ugly organizers even charge for downloading single photos without watermarks.
Of course, this is just a small amount of money.
But what about looking at the bigger picture?
According to the "China Marathon Population and Consumption Survey Report", the average annual consumption of Chinese road running enthusiasts is 11,418 yuan.
Here, in addition to running shoes, there are also compression pants, hollow caps, and sports watches.
Of course, this also includes members on sports software.
In this regard, Xiangyang expressed regret that these involve content and products. How can a well-established sports brand not have it?
While he was staying in Guangzhou, patiently waiting for the football match of the Asian Games two days later.
HYS’s App in China has received an update.
Xiang Yang, who lives in Guangzhou, doesn’t just go to the game every day to brush his face. He still has to do serious work.
During the visit of several European giant clubs to young football players in China, after the last communication and understanding, Bea Shaffer specifically contacted the general manager of the AG2R team and asked him to send someone to come China conducted a detailed investigation on Hengxiang Racing Team.
In the future, this team sponsored by Lightning (China) Company was successfully acquired.
The name has also changed slightly.
Similar to the name changed to AG2R-HYS, Hengxiang also has the eye-catching word HYS behind its name.
The update of HYSApp is also related to this acquisition.
Originally, only the side of the UTMB event standings interface can be scrolled, and there is an additional riding record.
When you click on it, you will see not only the ranking list, but also words such as "my equipment" and "my car".
But the most eye-catching thing is the eye-catching Chinese characters for "participate in the stage".
HYS is going to develop cycling competition stages in China?
Users quickly realized this through UTMB event points and familiarity with HYS’s layout of sports events.
No surprise, the moment you click on the mall.
A large number of gray "new" photos, as well as "????" price question marks attracted their attention.
While everyone in the community was discussing whether these new products could be exchanged for points or how much they would cost, a post suddenly went viral.
"Exploring the stage, unexpectedly unlocking the main climb of Jietai Temple in Beijing"
A mountain climbing enthusiast shared a screenshot of his App.
The whole journey is 4.6 kilometers, with a total climb of 191m, an average slope of 2.6%, a challenge number of 1, a number of participants, and a time of 54 minutes and 18 seconds.
The average speed is 5.1km/h.
A hiking enthusiast.
By chance, with such a fast result, I won the first place in the "Jie Tai Temple Climb" stage.
While hiking with his friends, he brought a watch co-branded by HYS and Garmin.
As a result, the data was automatically uploaded after the software was updated.
Unexpectedly, I got 5 bonus points.
However, this seemingly small number of points attracted the envy of onlookers.
HYS points are equivalent to discounts.
It can be used directly as money.
Everyone who has used HYSApp agrees with this.
"Where is Jietai Temple? Can anyone introduce it?"
"Hurry up and collect points!"
"Do you have to wear a HYS sports watch? Ah? I don’t have it, what should I do?”
“Can the built-in positioning in the app be matched?”
“Didn’t you read the update instructions?”
"Who cares about that thing?"
"."
Like the useless instruction manual, few people will click on the software update instructions to read them carefully.
As a test, HYSApp actually announced a total of three stages in Beijing.
One is the Jietai Temple that was visited by others, and the other is Tengwang Road and Miaofeng Mountain.
As for the results, of course they are activated based on the data on HYS's sports watches. HYS doesn't sell mobile phones, so how can it let other manufacturers take advantage of it?
“Why is it only in Beijing? Don’t we have one in Shanghai?”
“Why don’t we have a cycling stage in Chongqing?”
“We don’t have one in Chengdu either. What’s going on? If you want to earn points, you have to buy a flight to Beijing?”
“Didn’t I say it was a test?”
"Hello, hello."
Xiang Yang, who had been showing off his face at major competitions for two days, had no time to pay attention to discussions in the App community.
The visiting team led by Director Wei was welcomed by Xiang Yang with a smile on his face, "Director Wei, it's really hard work after traveling and traveling."
About the gossip about the salary limit order, he Heard that. From the bottom of his heart, he gave Director Wei a thumbs up.
That's how it should be done.
"Don't you dare, please come out and welcome Mr. Xiang in person."
Director Wei's round face was also full of smiles, and he had also heard the old man's praise.
"Come, let me introduce to you, this is Gao Hongbo, the head coach of our football team. You must have heard of these two, our China youth training coach Xu Genbao, Xu Guanhe"
"Fan Yi."
As a native of Beijing, it’s not surprising that I don’t know Gao Hongbo, who played for Beijing Guoan.
I don’t know whether it’s unusual for a famous old coach like Xu Genbao.
But for Fan Yi, Xiang Yang really didn’t need Director Wei’s introduction.
"How many changes have been made in each term? Have they been changed?"
"Cacho also said, what team did I lead? I led the Spanish team."< br>
"Can he do it? He can't play. Do you know he doesn't have the ability?"
"If we continue, we will lose to Vietnam. After the Thai team loses, they will lose to Vietnam, and then they will lose to Myanmar. Then no one will lose."
“No shame”
Looking at the smiling General Fan, Xiang Yang’s famous quotes instantly popped into his mind. Don’t mention it, he really hit the mark. .
More than losing to Vietnam.
Throughout Asia, it is really difficult to find an opponent that the national football team can win.
As someone who plays in the World Cup qualifiers, I wish that half of Asia could help me in order to reach the top 12.
Who will take the blame?
Anyway, Xiang Yang refused to carry it, and this matter had nothing to do with him at all.
But that was the original, but now, Xiangyang has become a favorite in the eyes of several people to a certain extent.
On the way here, Xu Genbao, Gao Hongbo, and General Fan exchanged their opinions with each other, and they all felt that this was a very rare opportunity.
Must catch it.
In order to produce results as soon as possible, Director Wei also hopes that this inspection of young players will be a signal.
He even took the initiative to persuade Xu Genbao, who is responsible for running Shanghai East Asia, to delay the transfer of young players for a while.
If there is a real problem, the Football Association can lend a helping hand.
"Don't worry, Director Xu. Zhang Linfan's transfer is not a problem." Facing a few people, Xiang Yang first offered a small olive branch.
"I have asked them to send Zhang Linfan's game video to our Liverpool data center for evaluation. I believe there will be a result soon."
"Mr. Xiang is also optimistic about Zhang Linfan ?" Xu Genbao looked at Xiang Yang in surprise.
This is an unexpected surprise.
"Director Xu was joking, I don't understand football." Contrary to the previous two days, in front of people who really understand football, Xiang Yang disdained to say confusing things.
"All results are based on the decision of our future sports director. However, I believe it is not difficult for us to send a player overseas. I still have this point of view."
Yes. , whether it is asking Chelsea, who was already optimistic about Zhang Linfan, to pay the money.
Let Paris buy this player.
The cost of about 1 million euros is not a problem for Xiangyang's face.
But Xiangyang also said that as long as Edwards believes that Zhang Linfan or other domestic players are worthy of an investment.
Liverpool won't mince words on this.
Chinese football has no superstars.
But Chinese football needs superstars.
There is no doubt about this.
As a senior executive working in a luxury brand pyramid company, how can it be justified if he doesn’t know how to make stars?
Although football players have to rely on their strength to speak for themselves. But we should not underestimate the momentum that can be created by giving a Chinese player the opportunity to land in the five major leagues.
Especially, this player can also join a wealthy team.
Even if it’s just an appearance in the cup.
That’s enough, the media has been reporting on it repeatedly for several years.
“That would be great.”
Xu Genbao held Xiang Yang's hand and couldn't help but said:
"If this thing can really happen, I believe there will be more parents of children willing to let their children develop on the path of professional players. "
"Coach Xu's words are ridiculous." Xiang Yang shook his head.
He does not agree with this view.
On the contrary, he feels that it is gratifying that Chinese children do not need to rely on football to find a way out.
"Having said that." He glanced at Fan Yi, who was standing next to Xu Genbao and laughed, and Xiang Yang said jokingly:
"If Mr. Fan could join Liverpool back then, compared to domestic football, it would be A happy event."
"But I admire what you did."
He added, and extended his hand to Fan Yi.
To be able to refuse the opportunity to make a name for oneself in order to participate in the Asian Cup and play for the country, this is not something that everyone can do.
At least none of the young players who came later could compare with the straightforward senior in front of him.
"Mr. Xiang, that's a compliment." General Fan smiled and shook hands with Xiang Yang.
"What a shame." Xiang Yang held General Fan's hand and said with a smile:
"I don't know if we, Liverpool, have a chance to invite you to join us for the second time. . This time, there will definitely be no harsh conditions."
"What?"
As soon as these words came out.
Not only General Fan, who shook hands with Xiang Yang, stood there blankly.
Even Gao Hongbo, Xu Genbao, Director Wei and other people who were traveling with him were stunned.
Xiang Yang actually invited General Fan to join Liverpool.
This.
Can he still play?
No, I can’t even get a labor certificate.
This young man is so funny.
