“How are things going?”
Yang Huan looked at Sun Yue, Cash Harris and Zhao Yuanfang with concern on his face.
These three plans all occupy a very important position in Yang Huan's mind.
Needless to say, star entertainment is a good thing.
If the two major cup competitions are run well, it will basically be a good thing to sit and wait to collect money.
"The acquisition of ig company has not encountered much resistance and has been basically negotiated."
Zhao Yuanfang replied.
He is Yang Huan's investment adviser.
Not long ago, he went to Chile to acquire a winery and merged it into the Calon family.
After that, he went to the United States and completed the acquisition, with a total value of about 2 billion euros.
"Where are the funds?"
Yang Huan asked again.
"It's not a problem, it's all done," Zhao Yuanfang said with a smile.
A two billion euro acquisition, this is the largest investment Yang Huan has ever made in his life.
Among them, most of the funds come from bank loans.
Yang Huan left all the specific operational matters to Zhao Yuanfang, who was the expert in this field.
The only concern Master Huan needs is whether the acquisition is successful or not.
"What about you?"
Yang Huan looked at Sun Yue.
Sun Yue has been traveling back and forth between Europe and the United States for the past few days, and his whole person has become dark.
But it seems that the spirit is even more vigorous.
"Following your instructions, Master Huan, we contacted the top football teams in Europe."
"Yes."
Yang Huan nodded, this was indeed what he asked for.
Only the top wealthy teams are worthy of the title of International Champions Cup.
"But there is a problem," Sun Yue said awkwardly.
Yang Huan frowned.
What he didn't like to hear was that there was a problem, so his tone was not very good.
Of course, he wasn't going for Sun Yue.
"explain" "Since 2009, companies in North America have also taken a fancy to this market.
They have held summer invitational tournaments for three consecutive years, and the person responsible for the operations is the famous RS Company in the United States."
"Investors include well-known American real estate tycoon Stephen Ross" Yang Huan knew this man, one of the top five real estate developers in the United States, with a net worth of approximately US$4 billion.
Those who engage in real estate in the United States are all masters of capital operations, and the same is true for Stephen Ross, who is also the owner of the American football team the Miami Dolphins.
"They also want to have a cup competition."
Yang Huan thought to himself, it can't be such a coincidence.
Logically speaking, not so fast.
"No, for the time being they are just considering continuing the invitational tournament model of the past few years, but they already have a basis for cooperation with those wealthy teams, so" Sun Yue didn't say anything, but Yang Huan knew it in his heart.
We have been cooperating with them for many years, and the partner is an American company with deep pockets.
If you want to poach people, it's not that easy.
Besides, if you plan to create a new cup competition, people are also worried.
Who knows how many years you can do it If you can't continue it after a year, then I will offend my original partners for you, and the gain outweighs the loss.
When Sun Yue saw that Master Huan was silent, he continued to report the situation.
"After I acquired Infront, I immediately went to the United States to conduct market research and analysis.
I also started planning the International Champions Cup and the European Youth Champions League.
I also had many contacts with wealthy teams.

They were all very impressed by our plan. interest."
Today's European giants have a very interesting characteristic.
The reputation is very high and the brand value is quite good, but it has no management and cash-out capabilities.
European giants teams are generally poor in commercial development.
Even teams with high commercial income such as Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich still have a certain gap compared with companies in other fields.
According to the traditional business concept, this is a big brand and a small company Therefore, what Sun Yue conveyed is that your wealthy team does not understand operations or management.
It does not matter.
I understand and I am good at it.
I will be responsible for helping you with this, and you only need to participate in the competitions organized and planned by me.
After acquiring Infront, Miracle Media, which Sun Yue is responsible for, will definitely have no problem with its ability to operate the cup.
Now, with the acquisition of ig company, it is even more powerful.
Therefore, what really worries these wealthy teams must be the determination of Miracle Media.
"What is the appearance fee given by RS?"
Yang Huan suddenly asked.
Sun Yue thought for a while, "The appearance fees for top clubs like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United are around two million euros, while the appearance fees for AC Milan, Inter Milan, Chelsea and other teams are about one hundred and fifty."
Around 10,000 euros.”
Yang Huan nodded, it was not very expensive.
According to Yang Huan's preliminary estimate, the first invitation to eight teams is probably less than 20 million euros.
"If you go talk to them again, just say what I said.
Several wealthy teams will all sign five-year contracts at one time.
In the next five years, we will host this International Champions Cup in North America and Asia."
"The appearance fee is divided into two levels.
The first level is 3 million euros, and the second level is 2.5 million euros.
In addition, the winning team will be given generous championship bonuses, as well as winning bonuses, goal bonuses and other additional awards. ”
Sun Yue frowned upon hearing this.
If we really do this, after each team has played four games, the participating teams will at least be able to earn more than 10 million euros in revenue.
The income is much richer than the current North American Invitational Tournament.
And he also signed a one-time five-year contract Darling, this gamble is too big, right?
Even Hamad, the wealthy little prince of the Middle East, couldn't help but click his tongue.
"Master Huan, is this appearance fee too much?"
Sun Yue looked sad.
Cash Harris couldn't help but nod, "It would be strange for a wealthy team not to sign such a generous appearance fee, but our organizers are also under great operating pressure.
Not to mention making money, we may even lose a lot of money." ah" You know, appearance fees and match bonuses are only part of organizing this cup.
In addition, stadium and training ground rentals, security costs, team accommodation and transportation costs, and event promotion costs are all considerable expenses.
If calculated according to this, the appearance fee for the team, plus other costs, will cost nearly 100 million euros a year.
What about income?
Income from sponsorships, game tickets and training tickets, as well as government incentives, are probably the three major income channels.
But it’s hard to say how much sponsorship a cup competition that has just been created can attract.
It’s hard to say how much incentives governments across the United States are willing to give.
Even the most certain ticket revenue may not be able to meet expectations.
Therefore, it is indeed quite stressful to pay such a high appearance fee and bonus.
But what Yang Huan values is indeed another level.
"We Chinese have a saying, go your own way and leave others with nowhere to go."
When Sun Yue and Zhao Yuanfang heard this sentence, they were stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt a sudden realization.
"Why are the rich teams big brands and small companies?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Because the football giants themselves are scarce resources.
There are only a few rich teams in the world that come and go.
If we sign them, others will not have them."
When Yang Huan said this, Cash Harris immediately understood.
That’s right, doesn’t the RS company in North America also have to organize warm-up matches?
Doesn’t it also invite wealthy teams?
If we take over all the most popular and powerful teams, what else can you invite?
Now I have signed a contract for five years in one go.
Can you still hold this warm-up event?
If you can't do it anymore, then the whole market will be mine.
"To be honest, I don't think the appearance fees and bonuses are too high at all.
With the appeal and influence of these wealthy teams, I think they are very small."
Yang Huan looked at Sun Yue with a smile, "Old Sun, even during the negotiation, you can promise them that our company will be mentally prepared not to make any money in the next five years, or even lose money to make a profit, and cultivate North America, Oceania, and Asia. and the four major football markets in the Middle East” When he said this, Yang Huan smiled confidently, "They will make a wise choice."
High It's really high If you really want to do this, what if you don’t make any money for five years?
As long as this event can be promoted and held stably, let alone five years, what will happen if it does not make money for a longer period of time, let alone five years?
This event is the biggest trophy Besides, once it reaches such a close partnership with a wealthy team, Miracle Media can definitely develop more business, such as acting as an agent for sponsorship business of wealthy teams, as well as commercial operations for stars, etc.
These are very huge potential markets "I understand, Master Huan."
Sun Yue immediately nodded heavily in agreement.
In his heart, he really admired Master Huan to the extreme.
You have such vision and courage.
I cannot help but admire you.
"Also, the elderly people in North America who are in their 40s and 50s don't like football, but young people are different.
We must actively develop the young people market, especially the Internet.
This market is too important."
Sun Yue nodded heavily.
He has rich experience in this aspect.
Nowadays, a series of popular applications on the Internet are owned by oneself, such as WeChat, self-destructing, etc.
These are resources.
If you don’t know how to use them well, you would be too stupid.
Once the few people present figured out this matter, their thoughts and ideas immediately emerged like a tide and were out of control.
For example, Sun Yue mentioned that an agreement must be reached as soon as possible with the wealthy teams.
Once the contract is finalized, the promotion of the cup must be put on the agenda, and the next step is to attract investment.
For example, broadcasting rights can be sold, cup sponsorships should start to be secured, and preparations should even begin for the sales of game and training tickets.
The entire cup operation is a standard assembly line.
After acquiring the two major companies Infront and IG, Miracle Media is fully equipped with the operational capabilities of this assembly line.
"I understand" Sun Yue stood up immediately.
"Master Huan, then I will go talk to them right away.
I believe there should be no problem."
Just kidding, Miracle Media has given such a high appearance fee and signed a five-year contract at the same time, which is sincerity enough.
If those wealthy teams don't agree, then they will be fooling themselves.
Only a fool would refuse such a temptation if he could make a steady profit of 10 million in a pre-season game.
"By the way, there are eight teams, including our Southampton team."
Yang Huan then remembered that his children should also get a share of the pie.
The others are all wealthy teams, and Southampton is among them.
As time goes by, the situation has also risen with the tide.

Moreover, the Saints players have long proposed overseas training.
"Then I will invite the other seven teams."
"Yes."
Yang Huan nodded, "If there is a chance, contact other wealthy families.
Once it is done, we will expand our army."
There are only thirty-two teams in the Champions League group stage.
Although the summer preparation time is relatively short, there is still more than half a month.
Once the market is developed and everything is on track, it will only be a matter of time before we expand our military base.
When Sun Yue heard this, he smiled and nodded in agreement.
At the same time, he also mentioned that he might as well settle the matter of the European Youth Champions League with the wealthy teams.
Yang Huan indicated that he had full authority over this matter.
We have to worry about such trivial matters as sesame seeds and mung beans.
How can our young master Huan have time to do his duties as a wealthy second generation who steals jade, seduces women, and squanders money?
Seeing Sun Yue leave, the matter was settled.
Our little prince Hamad from the Middle East is depressed again. because:
