"Thank you all for taking the time to come and attend tonight's banquet.
Thank you."
As the CEO of Miracle Media and the person in charge of the International Champions Cup, Sun Yue naturally had to go on stage to say a few words of thanks on such an occasion.
After all, in addition to the team's owners and senior executives, there were also core senior executives from major sponsors present tonight.
Compared with the low profile of the European Youth Champions Cup, Miracle Media has made great efforts and invested a lot of resources in the promotion of the International Champions Cup.
All participating teams are wealthy teams, which makes this event Very hot.
Last summer, attendance shocked the world.
Everyone expects that this year, the International Champions Cup will further set off a wave of football in North America.
What Sun Yue said on stage was more about introducing the achievements of the International Champions Cup in the past year.
For example, this year's International Champions Cup signed a live broadcast contract with China, including Hong Kong and Taiwan.
The one who won this live broadcast contract was WeChat Video under Yang Huan.
Of course, although they are all in-house companies and the left hand is transferred to the right, the money still has to be paid.
In addition, the International Champions Cup has also signed several other sponsorship contracts, and with more time this year, Miracle Media has drawn up a more detailed and larger publicity and promotion plan.
From the plans listed by Sun Yue, everyone can see that last year we established a firm foothold, and this year we must make great efforts to completely open up the US market.
Miracle Media is trying to build the International Champions Cup into a top-level event.
For everyone present, this is what they wish for.
From the club's perspective, during the summer preparations, with such an event, they can not only ensure a high-level warm-up match, but also receive high appearance fees, and at the same time expand their commercial influence.
Kill multiple birds with one stone.
For sponsors, the addition of such a platform is equivalent to an additional marketing and publicity opportunity.
The World Cup only happens once every four years, the UEFA Champions League is far away in Europe, but the International Champions Cup is in the United States.
What really caught everyone's attention was that Sun Yue also mentioned the Asian Challenge.
There are a total of six teams participating in this event, and they will play several challenge matches in Asia, including China, Japan, Thailand and other countries and regions.
The six teams are Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool in the Premier League, Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga, Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1, Napoli in Serie A and Atletico Madrid in La Liga.
Originally, Miracle Media hoped to invite traditional giants like AC Milan and Inter Milan.
Both teams have amazing influence in China.
But unfortunately, AC Milan decided to participate in the North American Challenge.
Inter Milan asked for too high a price and also asked Miracle Media to agree to let them participate in next year's International Champions Cup.
Miracle Media is no better now than it was last year.
With last year's International Champions Cup being so brilliant, all the participating teams made a lot of money.
Miracle Media was not worried about no teams participating at all, so when choosing who to participate in the International Champions Cup, this must not be influenced by the participating teams.
Blackmail.
Just kidding, if Inter Milan is threatening them now, wouldn’t all teams follow suit in the future?
So, I finally chose Naples.
Although his reputation is a bit lacking, at least he has good abilities and his results have been good in recent years.
When Sun Yue introduced the Asian Challenge, everyone present vaguely understood what Miracle Media meant.
As long as this year's International Champions Cup continues to have an impact in North America and the Asian Challenge has a good response in Asia, next year's International Champions Cup will be expanded.
The specific expansion situation is to be determined.
International Champions Cup Since it’s international, you definitely can’t stay in North America all the time, you have to look globally.
"Okay, now we have the mayor of Miami, Mr.
Regalado, to say a few words."
Following Sun Yue's introduction, there was a burst of warm applause.
The mayor of Miami immediately stood up with a smile, walked onto the stage, looked at the posture, and was ready to pass.
Yang Huan was sitting at the same table as Regalado.
Watching him go on stage to give a speech, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
"What's wrong?"

Lin Yuner, who was sitting next to Master Huan, asked strangely.
As the spokesperson of the International Champions Cup, it is natural for Lin Yoona to attend tonight's dinner.
Not only her, but also Psy and others, they are all the performing stars of the International Champions Cup.
Yang Huan smiled and turned his head, and after getting closer to Lin Yuner, he whispered: "This was added temporarily."
"Ah" Lin Yoona was a little surprised.
That's okay too Her touching look of surprise made Yang Huan's index finger twitch.
"Why not?
They paid five million euros to host the finals," Yang Huanhe said.
With last year's success, this year's International Champions Cup will be much more confident when negotiating venues.
For example, in the final, at least four cities, including Miami, wanted to host the final.
As a result, Miami won the right to host the final with a government subsidy of 5 million euros.
The two semifinal cities also received a government subsidy of 2.5 million euros.
For these three games alone, Miracle Media received a government subsidy of 10 million euros.
Although the subsidies for other competitions are not large, the total amount is not small, plus some preferential policies from the local government, such as tax exemptions, or the provision of a series of convenient services.
Overall, this year's income is definitely more than last year.
But compared with the increase in income, the investment is also greater, so overall, it is still a loss.
However, Yang Huan said that he would not make money for at least a few years.
This slogan was not for nothing.
When Regalado came on stage, he just said some high-sounding words, praising Miami, welcoming more of these wealthy teams, etc., which was quite boring to listen to.
But unfortunately, he seemed to be enjoying himself.
This also made Yang Huan feel quite emotional.
Are all officials like this?
After he finally finished speaking, the atmosphere at the dinner suddenly became lively again, and many people began to gather together in twos and threes to chat.
On such occasions, eating is never the most important thing.
Making friends and talking about business is the focus.
While Yang Huan was looking around with interest, Barcelona President Rosell walked over with a smile.
Accompanying him is Barcelona's first vice president Bartomeu.
"Master Huan" Yang Huan immediately stood up with a smile and stretched out his hand, "Hello, Sandro" Lin Yuner, who was originally sitting next to Yang Huan, stood up cutely, and immediately revealed the pink tube top and flower stamen dress she was wearing.
Matched with her tall figure, she was really indescribably charming. moving.
"Master Huan, I'm going back first."
"Um" Uncle Bird Du Ziteng also stood up, "I'm going back too."
"good" As soon as the two left, Russell and Bartomeu sat down.
"What's the matter?"
Yang Huan looked at Russell with interest, sighing in his heart.
I still remember that in 2010, he wanted to go to Barcelona to discuss the transfer of Ibrahimovic, but Russell and Bartomeu left him hanging in the hotel and waited for a full hour.
Thinking about it now, I still feel like my tooth hurts.
But who could have imagined that now, two years later, they would come to me and still treat me with utmost respect and courtesy.
So, this person’s fortunes are really unpredictable.
"That's it, Master Huan, I need you to help me with something," Russell said excitedly.
"I" Yang Huan was surprised and funny.
Surprisingly, this guy looks like he's on the verge of death What’s funny is, you damn thing, you actually come to my door to beg me sometimes.
"How can I help you?"
"Sell Neymar to us Barcelona" "What?"
Yang Huan frowned.
This guy is here to poach someone.

"Are you kidding me?"
"No, Master Huan, I am very, very serious.
As long as you agree to let Neymar transfer, we can negotiate the transfer fee."
This time Yang Huan could see from Russell's eyes that he was serious.
And very, very seriously Neymar has been flirting with Barcelona and Real Madrid, and Southampton has already taken it to heart, but they have been biting their tongues and insisting that Neymar is not for sale.
But everyone can see that it is not difficult for Southampton to force Neymar to stay.
Either Barcelona or Real Madrid, choose one of the two Looking at the whole of Europe, these two teams are the only ones that can afford Neymar.
Unfortunately, both teams are interested in Neymar.
"Talk" Yang Huan smiled and shook his head, "How much can you give?"
Russell was stunned, full of surprise.
Southampton has always refused to negotiate, but this time, Master Huan actually took the initiative to inquire.
Isn't this a God-given opportunity?
At their level, once an agreement is reached, it is basically finalized.
But when Yang Huan asked him how much he could give, it put him in trouble.
If you open too much, you will suffer a loss; if you open too little, you are afraid that Master Huan will fall out.
"Master Huan, how much do you think is appropriate?"
"I think" Yang Huan laughed now, "You better tell me, I'm afraid if I say it, I'll scare you."
Russell smiled bitterly now.
Who in the world doesn’t know that Master Huan is very wealthy?
In his eyes, millions are just loose change, and tens of millions are not taken seriously.
If you really want him to say it, he might just quote a sky-high price.
The Barcelona president looked at his right-hand man next to him, and Bartomeu nodded towards him.
"Master Huan, we are willing to offer a transfer fee of 70 million euros for Neymar." 70 million euros Second only to Cristiano Ronaldo, it is the second highest price in football history.
Judging from the current market conditions of Neymar, his performance in Southampton is indeed quite amazing, but at most it only costs 50 million euros.
But the problem is that the current transfer market is too exaggerated and outrageous.
There are both old money-burning teams like Real Madrid and new wealthy teams like Manchester City, Southampton, and Paris Saint-Germain, making the entire European transfer market extremely frothy.
No, not long ago Paris Saint-Germain introduced young Lucas from Brazil.
How much is he worth?
40 million euros Oh my god, a young player who has never proven himself in European competitions and has only performed well in the Brazilian domestic league is worth 40 million euros.
In addition, some wealthy teams in Russia, Ukraine and Türkiye have begun to burn money.
Porto forward Hulk moved to Zenit St.
Petersburg, worth 55 million euros.
Benfica midfielder Witsel moves to Zenit, worth 40 million euros.
You know, these two players from the Portuguese Super League are just familiar faces in European football at best.
How famous can they be?
The current transfer market has long lost its rationality.
The transfer of any top star costs 40 to 50 million euros.
You would be embarrassed to ask someone to ask for a price.
Therefore, Russell was still cautious about offering a price of 70 million euros.
And what about Master Huan?
After hearing this, he immediately laughed, shook his head, stood up, and sighed deeply.
"Sandro, let's talk about Neymar's transfer later."
Talk about it later What does it mean Russell also stood up and wanted to ask.
But Master Huan obviously didn't give him a chance, so he turned around and left.
Now, he has the qualifications and capital to hang Russell out there.

The Barcelona president could only stare at his back in a daze.
"It seems that he is very dissatisfied with this offer," Bartomeu said.
"Not satisfied with 70 million euros, still not satisfied" Russell said a little weakly.
Bartomeu also felt helpless, "Real Madrid may also have made an offer."
Russell just saw Real Madrid general manager Sanchez dragging Ron Gurley to talk.
Now, after hearing Bartomeu say this, it is very possible.
It seems that this rival team is also determined to win Neymar:
