Chapter 404 High, really high!(1/2)
"How is things going?"
Yang Huan looked at Sun Yue, Kesh Harris and Zhao Yuanfang with a look of attention.
These three plans all occupy a very important part in Yang Huan's mind.
Needless to say, the entertainment of the stars is that if the two major cup competitions are well operated, it is basically a good thing to sit and wait for the money to be collected.
"The acquisition of ING company has not encountered much resistance, and it has basically been agreed upon." Zhao Yuanfang replied.
He is Yang Huan's investment consultant. Not long ago, he went to Chile to acquire a winery and merged it into the Kelon Family. Then he went to the United States to complete the acquisition, with a total value of about 2 billion euros.
"Where is the capital?" Yang Huan asked again.
"It's not a problem, it's all done," Zhao Yuanfang said with a smile.
The two billion euro acquisition case is the biggest investment Yang Huan has ever made in his life.
Among them, most of the funds come from bank loans.
Yang Huan gave Zhao Yuanfang all the specific operation matters, and he is the expert in this regard.
Just one thing that Master Huan needs is whether the acquisition is successful or not.
"What about you?" Yang Huan looked at Sun Yue.
During this period of time, Sun Yue was running back and forth between Europe and the United States, and he was completely dark.
But it seems that his spirit is even more vigorous.
"As far as Master Huan, we are in touch with the top European teams."
"Yeah." Yang Huan nodded. This was indeed what he asked for.
Only the top giant teams deserve the title of International Champions League.
"But there is a problem," Sun Yue said in embarrassment.
Yang Huan frowned. What he didn't like to hear was that there was something wrong, so his tone was not very good.
Of course, it was not for Sun Yue.
"explain"
"Since 2009, some companies in North America have also taken a fancy to this market. They have held the Summer Invitational Tournament for three consecutive years, and the one responsible for operating the famous American E Company."
"Investors include Stephen Rose, a famous American real estate tycoon"
Yang Huan knew that this person, one of the five largest real estate developers in the United States, was worth about $4 billion.
Those who work in real estate in the United States are all experts in capital operations, and so are Stephen Ross, who is also the owner of the Miami Dolphins in the United States football team.
"They also want to make a cup match?" Yang Huan thought to himself, could it be such a coincidence, right?
Logically speaking, it's not that fast.
"No, they are just considering continuing the invitational model in the past few years, but they have a foundation of cooperation with those giant teams, so..."
Sun Yue didn't say that, but Yang Huan understood very well.
I have been working with me for many years, and the partner is a local American company, which is rich and powerful. It is not that easy for you to poach.
Besides, you plan to start a new cup competition, and people are worried.
Who knows how many years you can do it?
If you can't handle it after a year, then I offended my original partner for you, which is not worth the loss.
When Sun Yue saw that Young Master Huan didn't say anything, he continued to report on the situation.
"After I acquired Yingfang, I immediately went to the United States for market research and analysis, and also started planning the International Champions League and the European Youth Champions League. I also had many contacts with the giant teams, and they were very interested in our plans."
Today's European giant teams all have a very interesting feature.
It has a very high reputation and a very good brand value, but it just has no ability to operate and cash out.
European giants 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 traditional business concepts, this is a big brand and a small company
So, what Sun Yue conveyed is that your wealthy teams don’t know how to operate or manage. It doesn’t matter, I understand, I’m good at it, I’m responsible for helping you solve this, and you just need to participate in the competitions organized and planned by me.
After acquiring Yingfang, Miracle Media, which Sun Yue is responsible for, must have no problem with its ability to operate the cup.
Now, the acquisition of ING company is like a huge wing.
Therefore, what really made this group of giant teams worry must be the determination of Miracle Media.
"How much is the appearance fee given by E?" Yang Huan asked suddenly.
Sun Yue thought about it, "The appearance fee for top giants like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United is about 2 million euros, while the appearance fee for AC Milan, Inter Milan, Chelsea and other teams is about 1.5 million euros."
Yang Huan nodded, it was not very expensive.
According to Yang Huan's preliminary estimate, the first round of eight teams was about less than 20 million euros.
"If you talk to them again, just say what I said, several giant teams have signed five-year contracts at one time. In the next five years, we will hold this international championship cup in North America and Asia."
"The appearance fee is divided into two levels. The first level is given three million euros and the second level is given two million euros. In addition, the winning team will also give generous championship prizes, winning prizes, goal prizes and other additional awards."
Sun Yue frowned when he heard this.
If this is the case, each team will be able to earn at least 10 million euros in four games.
It's much richer than the current North American Invitational.
And signed a five-year contract at one time
Good, this gamble is too big, right?
Even Hamad, the rich and powerful Middle East prince, couldn't help but smack his tongue.
"Master Huan, isn't this appearance fee too much?" Sun Yue looked sad.
Kesh or Harris nodded, "It would be strange if the wealthy teams don't sign such a generous appearance fee, but our organizer's operating pressure is also great. Not to mention making money, they may even lose a lot of money in turn."
You know, the appearance fee and the prize money are only part of the preparation for this cup.
In addition, rent, security costs, team accommodation and transportation costs, and event promotion costs are all considerable expenses.
If calculated in this way, the team's appearance fee and other costs will be nearly 100 million euros per year.
Can you earn?
The income from sponsorship, ball tickets and training tour tickets, as well as government rewards, are probably the three major income channels.
But it is hard to say how much sponsorship can be obtained for a newly established cup competition.
It is hard to say how much rewards the governments in various parts of the United States are willing to give.
Even the most confident ticket revenue may not meet expectations.
Therefore, it is indeed quite stressful to give such a high appearance fee and bonus.
But what Yang Huan values is indeed another layer.
"We Chinese have a saying: go your own way and leave others with no way out."
When Sun Yue and Zhao Yuanfang heard this, they were stunned at first, but after savoring it carefully, they felt a sudden realization.
"Why are the wealthy teams big brands and small companies? Because the football giants themselves are scarce resources, the wealthy teams around the world come and go just like those teams. If we sign, others will be gone."
After Yang Huan said this, Kaish Harris immediately understood.
Yes, isn’t E Company in North America also going to organize a warm-up match? Don’t you also want to invite wealthy teams?
If all the most appealing teams of Hao's teams were won by us, what else can you invite?
I've signed for five years now. Can you still do this warm-up event for you?
You can't handle it anymore, the entire market will be mine by then
"To be honest, I don't think the appearance fee and bonus are too high at all. With the appeal and influence of these giant teams, I think it's very rare."
Yang Huan looked at Sun Yue with a smile, "Old Sun, you can even promise them when you are talking, that our company is mentally prepared, that we will not make money in the next five years, and that we will lose money and gain publicity, and cultivate the four major football markets of North America, Oceania, Asia and the Middle East."
Speaking of this, Yang Huan smiled confidently, "They will make wise choices."
High
It's really high
If this really happens, so what if you don’t make money for five years?
As long as this event can be promoted and held stably, let alone five years, and not to mention not making money for a longer period of time, what can I do?
This event is the biggest spoil
Besides, once such a close partnership has been reached with the giant team, Miracle Media can fully develop more businesses, such as agents for the giant team's sponsorship business, and the business operations of the stars.
These are very large potential markets
"I understand, Master Huan" Sun Yue nodded heavily and agreed immediately.
He really admired Young Master Huan so much.
