710 You don't lose money at this price
In fact, to put it bluntly, this is a step down for both sides.
Jiang Yue didn't want Gu Zheng to endorse the contracts of these two brands at all.
Let's not talk about the problem of Lebao functional drink, just talk about the excavator technical school, which can pull a good international superstar athlete directly into the ditch of three rooms.
It's a blast!
When Jiang Yue said this, the two agents on the other side were also quite embarrassed.
The contract they brought and the seemingly ridiculous advertising idea were nothing more than an attempt by their PR department.
If they really meet a strong man who doesn't know anything, then they have no loss to end up with this endorsement that looks cheap like cabbage to them.
Maybe this kind of eye-catching, gimmicky advertising can make their manufacturers make a lot of money.
If you don't act as an agent, it naturally doesn't matter, they have spent a lot of money to invite national-level actors to endorse technical schools, and the other one is to follow the ordinary model company mass casting, and quickly change the creative advertising and promotion methods to promote.
People don't care about Gu Zheng's joining or not.
So after Jiang Yue finished saying this, the two people just smiled faintly, nodded lightly at the shrewd agent, and put away the endorsement contract in front of them.
Let's talk to the sponsors who are really interested, and we'll take a look and don't talk.
The problem of unreliable manufacturers was solved, and the atmosphere in the venue was renewed, and under the guidance of this good situation, it was opened again...... It's a more reliable sponsor.
It's still two, not many, but heavyweight enough.
One is Asics, and the other is a case.
Both of them came for Gu Zheng's sponsorship and endorsement in the future marathon.
After the agents of the two parties glanced at each other, they instantly distinguished the difference between domestic and foreign endorsement manufacturers from their skin color.
Out of Chinese humility, the yellow-skinned young man took the lead in extending his hand to the white-skinned agent on the right, signaling: You come first?
And the brown-haired little curly hair with a few freckles on his face was not humble at all, and he took the lead in starting the negotiation with a nod.
"Hello, I am the brand agent of ASICS Japan, the current executive promotion president of China, my name is Mike, please take care of me. ”
"We are very optimistic about Gu Zheng's potential, and we have been interested in contacting Gu Zheng since the Tokyo Marathon. ”
"But at that time, Gu Zheng was too low-key, and there was no professional agent to serve him, but our publicity department wanted to contact him, but he couldn't find any clue. ”
"Thanks to Gu Zheng, the president and directors of our Japanese calligraphy association have contacts in calligraphy and painting, and under the influence of many parties, through Gu Zheng's manager in the calligraphy and painting industry, he got Mr. Jiang Yue's phone number, so that he can get the opportunity to meet today. ”
"Thank you very much!"
After saying that, Comrade Mike stood up and bowed a very standard 90-degree Japanese bow.
And these words spoken in Chinese are even more standard, so that people can't hear a trace of foreigners' tones.
At first glance, this white-skinned hybrid Japanese president of China...... It's a veritable preparedness.
And when he finished speaking, the Chinese representative sitting next to him showed a very annoyed expression on his face.
I knew it was a small Japanese manufacturer, and they were all Asians, so I still had a polite yarn with you?
For the first time, the Chinese agent felt deep regret for his deep-seated admiration for foreigners.
I can't wait to slap myself in the mouth, which can be regarded as a solution to hatred.
But the wood is already in the boat, we can only wait for this person to finish the next words, what if his purpose is different from his own?
With luck in his heart, the spokesperson of the Chinese side continued to listen patiently.
"There is a saying in China that good things are more than grinding, and the two of us have gone through hardships and hardships to come together, which means that you and I are destined. ”
"And the rise and attention of Gu Zheng players also started from East Malaysia, which shows that we have a relationship with the ASICS brand. ”
"Therefore, we very much hope to design a special long-distance running shoe named after Gu Zheng as a new recommended brand of long-distance running shoes that we will take the lead in launching next year. ”
"I don't know, can Gu Zheng agree?"
It's quite sincere, let's look at the contract requirements?
Jiang Yue and Gu Zheng glanced at each other, and opened the endorsement contract of ASICS one after the other.
After seeing his additional terms and endorsement fees clearly, he stopped talking with a deep groan.
There is nothing wrong with the additional terms, but in terms of endorsement fees, I feel that it is a little too cheap.
The duration of the endorsement contract is no problem, and it is a one-year short-term endorsement contract for standard rising star athletes.
The endorsed product is also good, it is a long-distance running shoe specially designed by ASICS named after Gu Zheng.
The endorsement requirements are also very simple, but whenever Gu Zheng participates in long-distance running competitions, he must wear running shoes specially designed for him by ASICS and appear at the competition venue.
Is it just this endorsement price, 200,000 US dollars a year, I just want to be a second-tier model or a fourth-tier movie star in China.
That's a little bit lower than the expected standard line.
There is a drop.
But Gu Zheng, who thought about it, was balanced.
Because his fame is compared with the fame of the ASICS brand, who drove whose brand effect, at least in the current state, it is really hard to say.
But Gu Zheng was relieved, Jiang Yue didn't.
Who is he?
One of the most treacherous brokers in the world...... It's enough to be in the top three sports agents.
He just crossed out the original price with a pencil on the top of the endorsement fee, and filled in a new endorsement fee in the blank space on the top again, and then confidently pushed it back to Mike.
When the other party hadn't seen the price clearly, he took the lead in taking a precautionary shot: "President Mike, we basically don't have any objections to the terms of your contract, but we hope to be able to adjust the price to this price in terms of endorsement fees." ”
"Oh?" Mike pulled the contract in front of him with some confusion, and after seeing the latest price, he gasped and blurted out, "Are you crazy? This can't be!"
Is it so exaggerated?
How much is it, such a big reaction?
The representative of the Chinese side who saw the whole process on the side was very curious to take advantage of the terrain and poked his head over, and after seeing the price on the contract, he also hissed and drank the cold wind with Mike.
500,000 US dollars, I really dare to ask for it, how big a face does this have to be, to come up with such a price.
You are not a world-renowned player, you have not won a decent award in the World Championships, the Olympics, and competitions around the world, are you embarrassed to take the endorsement price of a second-class athlete?
With advertising fees at this price, they can all find a domestic second- and third-tier Xiaohong as a spokesperson.
Isn't this more influential than your Gu Zheng?
But after Jiang Yue spoke again, Mike on the other side didn't speak.
Jiang Yue said: "After the last Hercules tournament in Dubai, the manager of the K1 competition organizing committee of the Japanese side came to me, hoping that our athlete Gu Zheng can represent the Chinese Hercules and other players to participate in the upcoming K1 tournament between fighters of various industries around the world. ”
"I was still hesitating a few days ago, but just the day before yesterday, the Japanese K1 Invitational Tournament raised the cost of Gu Zheng's appearance to $30,000 per game, and after a short contact with Gu Zheng, I decided to accept the other party's invitation. ”
As for the number of competitions, it also depends on the arrangements of Gu Zheng's regular competitions at home and abroad. ”
"After all, you have to know that my athlete is a versatile athlete and he has a lot of potential in every way, and you may be able to see him on any field you don't expect. ”
"I think Mr. Mike is also from Japan, so I can understand how influential K1 indiscriminate martial arts sponsored by Japan are in the world, right?"
Hearing Jiang Yue say this, Mike also had to nod cooperatively: "Yes, although K1 has now been completely acquired by the Hong Kong company, it is a full-fledged fighting competition created and formed in Japan. ”
"It's not as brutal and gold as the UFC, but in ordinary fighting fights, it's probably the most authoritative championship fight. ”
"However, a Hercules champion is not synonymous with K1 fighting. ”
"Because in a fighting match where skill and strength go hand in hand, having a lot of power doesn't have any effect. ”
"So?" Jiang Yue turned his head to Gu Zheng very smartly: "Do you want to see the true skills of my players?"
As soon as he finished saying this, let alone Mike, even the soy sauce guy next to him was full of interest, and he turned his head to Gu Zheng's direction in an instant.
What will this legendary player do?
Flipping the huge five-meter-long conference table in front of them on the spot?
Or do you memorize all of them?
And just when their thoughts were flying, Gu Zheng on the opposite side only made one move, he just slapped the table in front of him like this, and then he didn't make any more movements.
That's it?
Is this anger at their distrust?
But when the four agents opposite Gu Zheng looked in front of them, their mouths never closed again.
