Andy's planning hope for the Dodger Arena is the Bernabeu of the United States, and the Bernabeu Stadium of Real Madrid is not just an arena, but a Madrid tourist area with Real Madrid Club as the core.

Although the Dodgers are located in the suburbs of the city, but the transportation is convenient, as long as the attraction is established enough, many fans will choose to come here in the afternoon to play, shop, eat, and watch the game here in the evening, the cost is definitely greater than the football itself, and the consumption pull of various surrounding business places can be imagined.

In addition to the direct pull on consumption, it has a great role in promoting the popularity of the region and opening up its popularity.

Andy's naming rights to Dodger Coliseum have always been a matter of heart, Nima, the sponsor of the Major League Baseball is a contract negotiated with the major leagues, leaving very little room for the team to sign a contract alone, and even the broadcast contract, the major leagues will strictly control it, bypassing the negotiations of the major leagues, it will not pass at all, and it will be vetoed.

All the teams in the major leagues have baseball caps from the manufacturer Ne Era, the designated alcohol is Budweiser, the drink is Gatorade and other 24 sponsors, and there is nothing for the team at all.

Major League Baseball, on the other hand, only distributes 27% of the league's total revenue to 30 teams on average, so for baseball teams, it is important to expand their business model to teams beyond the stadium to increase revenue.

Fortunately, the Dodgers have a few good cards, one is the TV rights, after all, this is Los Angeles, and the Dodgers are also a famous team second only to the New York Yankees in terms of market value, and the second is that there is a stadium naming rights that have not been settled, and the third is an officially designated airline company sponsor that can be used.

So when everyone sat down in the conference room, Andy said these three ways to get money, everyone fell into a short silence, except for the stadium naming rights are not new but absolutely subvert the tradition of the Dodgers, the remaining two have partners, and fools can also hear that the big boss is unreasonable and breaches.

Since Martin Lee, the director of operations, has already shown his face once in the previous market plan, he doesn't care about rushing out and impressing the boss even more.

"FOX's broadcast contract is generally good, with an annual broadcast fee of 80 million, which is also the highest broadcast contract in the league, even higher than the Yankees' self-operated TV network, and the progress of our negotiations is not very good, FOX is even willing to sell Sports 2 to us...

As for the sponsorship of the designated airline, the sponsorship contract of Southwest Airlines can be considered, after all, there is only a sponsorship fee of 3 million, which is indeed not suitable for the current Dodgers team. ”

The current manager of the team, Granada, glanced at Martin Lee meaningfully and nodded in agreement: "These are all advantages, but the most important thing is the team's results, only when the results get better and better, our fans will come to the stadium and sponsors will come." ”

Andy squinted his eyes slightly, reached out and touched his chin, and said after a while: "I don't care about the team's affairs, the team's finances have long been straightened out, there are sufficient funds, if there is a shortage of people, buy them, and clear out those useless players, give me a nice job, I don't want people to leave, and pay them salaries!"

He also knows that there is a huge hole in the baseball world, and he often uses money to support players who have been traded, just to vacate a position.

"Martin, you're in charge of assembling an expansion team to take care of the next development issues, okay, let's break up the meeting first, Granada you stay for a while... Andy looked at the discussion and ended the meeting.

When only Andy's people and Granada were left in the conference room, Andy said, "What do you think of Martin?"

"I'm a loyal employee of Dodge, I've been working here for seven years, and although I didn't have anything brilliant before, I didn't expect it to be a surprise today. "Granada didn't deliberately suppress Martin, who was stealing the limelight, because he was too busy, and as long as his energy was to manage a sports investment company, not just a baseball team, he would be happy to see someone to help him share the burden, and he flew back and forth to negotiate during this time, hoping to be able to do the trick.

"Then let him be the assistant manager, in charge of marketing and development, and your current vice president who manages the team, just in charge of complementing each other, you also serve as the manager, and then see who is more brilliant and let someone take your place. "Andy is going to hang the bones and let his subordinates break the rhythm of their heads, of course, this will make his subordinates perform hard and create value, which is the most happy for him as a boss.

"By the way, how are the negotiations with the city of Houston? I haven't read today's briefing, so you can just say it. Andy continued.

"They are willing to complete the transaction of the Toyota Center for $100 million, and the 10-year naming rights of the stadium and Toyota will continue to be retained, and the previous naming profits will not be negotiated. ”

After Andy heard it, he basically understood that it cost five million dollars more than the 235 million cost of the stadium, and the 100 million dollar naming fee of Toyota that he ate in 10 years was also directly converted into the acquisition cost, which is not bad overall, but it still needs to be voted by the city council.

Although Andy is very unhappy to fulfill Toyota's naming contract, although the annual naming fee of 10 million is not the highest in the league, it is also ranked fourth, and it is acceptable, and there are still 6 years, and then it will be a bite, he is not asking whether the citizens and fans will get used to changing their names, as long as they can increase profits, they will get used to it after a long time.

"Then let's get into the takeover, you go to Houston, get rid of the city council's obstacles, and call me anytime if you get into trouble." Andy has nothing to worry about the most difficult city council to deal with, after all, the roots of their Smith family are in Texas, of course, it is not ruled out that there are people looking for trouble, as long as they get as many votes as possible.

"By the way, let the Rockets go to the capital of the Celestial Empire and the magic capital to get an office, and dig deep into the sponsors of the Rockets, such as what basketball hoops, some booths in the gymnasium, the backs of the seats in the stadium and whatever, as long as it can be used to attract investment... ”

Granada looked confused after listening to it, Andy took out the seatback advertising on the Celestial Empire bus and squeezed out the advertisers' behavior, which directly refreshed the foreigner's knots, can you still play like this?

"This... No manufacturer will buy an advertisement in this position, right?"

Andy rolled his eyes directly and said to Granada, who was skeptical: "The manufacturers of the Celestial Empire will definitely compete for these advertising slots, don't be too cheap... ”

Andy left the Dodger Arena with his assistants and bodyguards, leaving Granada with a question mark and exclamation mark on his face, "Ahem, the basketball hoop advertising is sold out in different areas... ”

Andy doesn't care about this kind of thing in terms of making money, it can bring profits, it can make money, it wants bullshit, laughing at poverty and not laughing, the comfort of making money is the most important, and you know it!

Boss, where are you going next?" Tori Blake stood up slightly, and dragged his black tight tun skirt away, which can make it more convenient for the big demon king to enjoy the black si, and did not forget to ask softly.

"Well, go to the copyright company and see what the dead fat man is doing. Andy leaned his head back on the pillow, his hand caressing the smooth silk beauty ~ tui, listening to the briefing read by Tori, this kind of old man's style is what he enjoys the most.

"Nomura Securities, the largest brokerage company in the foot basin, announced a loss of $620 million in the current quarter, according to the analysis made by the think tank in combination with market news, for the world's top brokerage Merrill Lynch is about to announce the third quarter of 07 financial results are very pessimistic, the analysis said that the amount of loss will reach an astonishing figure... ”

"Hey... These people are not worthy of sympathy at all, the subprime mortgage market has obviously collapsed, and the world's major stock markets have also taught them a lesson, the dying struggle in September and October, back to the light, but it has made this group of people worse, it is really self-inflicted, and it is impossible to live, wait to see the show!"

Andy listened to Torry's recitation, and couldn't help but sigh lightly, some people are like this, good scars forget the pain, even if they say it, they don't listen, but will jump into the pit even harder, 9, 10 months of the stock market and the real estate market is very dramatic bottoming out, so that many people forget the previous trembling, long ago the subprime loan crisis impact left behind, even the U.S. government and rating agencies are questioning the real harm and severity of the subprime mortgage crisis, in the understanding of the subprime mortgage crisis, there are great differences, Andy's newspapers have also warned more than once, but still can't stand most people continue to die, which continues to push the stock market higher.

Entering October, the U.S. stock market was pushed up to 14,198 points against the market, and the Celestial Empire stock market on the other side of the Pacific Ocean was also pushed up to 6,124 points, which is simply irrational madness!

In that case, let's all die!
