Chapter 45: Sponsorship
"Then I'll call you Amo, I just heard William call you that. ”
Angela actually said a sentence in Chinese, and then she hesitated for a while: "What I taught you today, you must not say it." Even if it is known, it is something you learned from your Wildenstein family, and it has nothing to do with me. ”
Li Mochen's eyebrows raised slightly: "Is it the secret of your Medici family? It's all in this era, is it necessary?"
"Of course it's necessary, don't look at the various meditation methods circulating outside now, the supreme secret texts of the ancient times are now all over the streets. But those are all very old things, after thousands of years, especially in modern times, how can there be no progress at all? So the major families of America still have many secret traditions, which are not accessible to outsiders, and your Wildenstein family is the same?"
After Angela finished speaking, she explained with a fixed look in her eyes: "The content I taught you today is part of the improvement of yoga by the ancestors of our Medici family. If you leak it out, I'm going to be in trouble, big trouble, you know?"
Seeing Li Mochen nodding solemnly, Angela began to teach with satisfaction. She first knelt on the yoga mat, then stretched her right leg back, pressing almost a horse to the ground, and at the same time leaned her delicate body back, pressing the back of her head against her right calf almost to the limit. While showing unparalleled flexibility, it also makes her delicate and delicate body highlight the explosive visual effect.
"The first is this pose, which is called Crescent Moon Pose. You don't have to do it the first time, just take your time. Later, I will teach you the preliminary posture and the method of conducting qi, which basically starts from the lower abdomen, passes through the middle of the abdomen, and goes up the abdomen. Have you ever studied the meridians of the East, that is, from the sea of qi to the middle of the qi to the Xuanji, and then the qi veins don't go—"
It's just that before she finished speaking, she heard Li Mochen sneer; "It's unsightly! At a young age, she dressed like this, and her clothes were not covered, and she was simply morally degraded." Listen clearly, don't show off your figure in front of the old man in the future. ”
Then there was a 'bang' sound, and when Angela raised her head, she found that Li Mochen had already thrown the door away, and only some suspicious blood remained in place.
Angela was stunned, looked at her dress, and thought to herself, this is very decent, she is a very conservative woman, this yoga dress is not exposed at all, how is she unethical? Why is she not clothed? How is she showing off her figure? This Andre, what is going on?
※※※※
Soon after Li Mochen rushed out of the door, he withdrew from the state of Tianxinzhao, and then he felt remorse.
At that time, I really shouldn't have spoken ill of her, and that Angela-san was just out of good intentions, and there was nothing wrong with it. Even if he was annoyed that this girl had once again hooked Lust (one of the seven deadly sins) in his heart, he couldn't scold anyone, which was too undignified.
But then he looked solemn and realized the gravity of the situation. It is said that he in the state of Tianxin, he should not be in the eyes of anyone, even if he is a peerless in the world, a fairy, in the eyes of Tianxin Li Mochen, he will not be much stronger than a loess skeleton.
So in a normal state, he should be disdainful, treating the black-haired girl as a passerby, and he didn't bother to evaluate it. But since he met with this Angela three times, he has repeatedly spoken ill of each other in a state of heavenly heart.
This most likely means that he is also afraid of this girl in the state of 'Tianxin'.
What are you afraid of? Fear of further loss of control, fear of sinking into Lust, fear of losing the Dao Heart?
Thinking of this, Li Mochen couldn't help but rub his eyebrows with a headache. Originally, I thought that this time there was an ice and bloodstone neck, and the situation might be better, but the result was still on the verge of getting out of control.
Thinking of this, he didn't even have the heart to continue cultivating, he directly changed his clothes in the locker room, grabbed the ghost fire dragon that he hid in the locker, and hurriedly walked out of the gymnasium.
However, as soon as he walked out of the gate of the gymnasium, he was greeted by three men in suits and neatly dressed clothes.
"Hello Li Mochen, do you have time to talk about it now?"
Li Mochen shook hands with these people with a puzzled expression: "I have time, may I ask who you are?"
"We are from the Nathan Movement Group, my name is Carl Holden, and I am an assistant to Mr. Peyton, CEO of the Eastern Region of the Nathan Movement. The two people next to me are colleagues from the company's marketing department and legal department. ”
The youngest of the three introduced himself with a smile: "We came here this time to talk to you about your sponsorship, hoping to become your brand sponsor, I don't know if you are interested, Li Mochen?"
"Sponsorship?"
Li Mochen's eyebrows raised slightly, looking for relevant memories in his mind. Then, just a moment later, his eyes lit up: "It's a sponsorship for sports, isn't it?"
He remembered that in the world of sports in America, this was a very common thing.
In order to increase their brand influence, major sporting goods manufacturers have cast a wide net between the NHSAA (National High School Athletic Association) and the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) to find talented sports stars to sponsor.
The comprehensive cold weapon fighting and integrated hand-to-hand combat are the main battlefields for several major sporting goods manufacturers.
Especially the former, due to the prevalence of the magic energy profession, all the various equipment related to it, such as battle helmets, combat boots, magic armor for practice, magic weapons for practice, and other products, as well as various equipment for training, have a wide and huge market.
The big and small stars of the comprehensive cold weapon fighting event, because of their unparalleled influence and appeal among the audience and fan base, have a great role in promoting the sales of major sporting goods manufacturers and even military enterprises, and thus become the target of these businesses. Major sporting goods manufacturers invest huge sums of money every year to compete for these stars to endorse their products.
Among them, the NHSAA and the NCAA hosted the mixed cold weapon fighting, because of the better audience and popularity of the NMOSA (National Comprehensive Cold Weapon Fighting League), so the top players of these two major events are more favored by businesses than the NMOSA, the official professional league. And the influence and ability of the two major event stars of high school and college are by no means inferior to those professional superstars.
However, because these two major sports associations are non-commercial organizations of high schools and universities, it is mandatory that all athletes are not allowed to undertake commercial endorsements, nor are they allowed to have any financial ties with the commercial organizations of the school.
Fortunately, 'sponsorship' is possible, and these sporting goods manufacturers can provide all kinds of support to their players in a non-cash way, such as tailor-made armor, combat boots, weapons, etc.
Naison Sports Group is one of the top sporting goods manufacturers in the country, with a market value of more than 900 billion gold shields.
As far as Li Mochen knows, this year's Atlanta District Comprehensive Cold Weapon Fighting Tournament is sponsored by those Nathan Group, who provide equipment for all participants who cannot afford to buy armor.
"When it comes to mixed cold weapon fighting, our company is very optimistic about your future in this event. ”
The young man named Carl Holden smiled: "You think you should know something about sponsorship, right? If you are interested, why don't we find a place to talk about it carefully?"
