"Evan, I never thought that a warehouse-style workshop could be designed to look like a rockery, and if I hadn't seen it myself, I couldn't believe that this beautiful rockery was a warehouse. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Since the Fittita brothers took over the UFC, the 31st UFC tournament was held in Denver, Colorado, on May 4, and after a huge success, the UFC has held several more events in a row, and the response has been very good. This allowed them to restart their plans to rebuild the UFC brand very smoothly.

Today's UFC competitions are less cruel and cruel than in the past, but they are more confrontational, storytelling, fun, and even entertaining.

If it is such a game, it will definitely not be liked by the audience in China, and of course, it is impossible for such a cruel game in China to be allowed to take place. But the Yankees love the show so much that the high ticket prices for each game can't stop the crowds from entering, and nowadays, each game can earn more than $5 million for tickets alone.

You know, this is not a football stadium that can accommodate 50,000 people, or even 100,000 people, and the stadiums where UFC competitions are generally held are only more than 10,000, at most a little more than 20,000 capacity.

On average, each spectator has to pay about $300 for a game, and the ticket price for the front row is more than $1,000.

For the average American citizen, their average annual salary is less than $30,000, which is more than $2,000 a month, which is not a small amount of money for them, but the event is so popular.

Now, the Fertitta brothers are also actively negotiating with major TV broadcasters to increase the broadcast fee of the event, although it seems unlikely to increase too quickly at present, but as long as the game is popular in the future, it is worth looking forward to.

In terms of paid on-demand, the original cost of watching a game has risen from less than $10 to more than $20, which is higher than the ticket price of watching a movie, but the on-demand rate of each game is also more than 500,000, which is a sign that the UFC change has been successful.

As for the old business of the Fertita brothers, it is to open the market, and the profit brought to them by each game is even greater. Although Zhou You didn't do a detailed understanding, he also knew that this was definitely a huge profit.

Many states that have not banned the UFC have come up with the most favorable conditions to attract UFC events. Now the two brothers are in contact with either the governor or the mayor every day, and their influence has risen dramatically.

Therefore, the Fertitta brothers have been in a very good mood lately, because of this event, the brothers have now become big names in Las Vegas and even in the United States.

Zhou You shook hands with each of them and said, "If you build a venue like this in Las Vegas, or build a UFC headquarters in this style, I think it's also a very cost-effective investment." ”

Little Fertita smiled: "It seems that we are thinking of going together, so you, the major shareholder, have no objection to building a UFC headquarters in Las Vegas!" ”

In fact, investment in fixed assets can also quickly increase the UFC's ability to resist risks, and it can also rapidly expand the value of UFC events.

Zhou You nodded and said: "Compared with the boxing market in the United States, as well as WWE, the UFC is far from doing enough. We want to take more market from them, not only to hold more and better events, but also to increase our influence in other ways. Mr. Adelson is also there, and while his casinos in Las Vegas can't be UFC partners, casinos in Macau can, and we shouldn't give up on a market as big as Asia. ”

Big Fertitta laughed and said, "You are also the majority shareholder of the UFC now, so you still need to worry more about this matter. You know, we don't have a good relationship with him, and you're more familiar with Asia. ”

Zhou You said with a smile: "Of course, this is also my unshirkable responsibility. ”

The Firmita brothers paid $2 million to get the rights to organize the UFC event, and thirteen years later, the rights are worth $4.2 billion.

This price was paid by Wang Jianlin, the richest man in the mainland in later generations, but the Fertita brothers have not sold it to him, because Wang Jianlin did not have a development plan that satisfied the Fittita brothers.

Later, the Fertitta brothers transferred most of the organizational rights to a sports event company in the Middle East for less than $4 billion, because the other party had a well-developed development plan.

In thirteen years, they have earned four billion dollars on this investment, and it has to be said that it was a successful investment.

But Zhou You didn't want to wait for thirteen years, in his opinion, with his experience in later generations, UFC can avoid many detours, and he is confident that he will develop UFC within ten years and become the profit machine in later generations.

After a brief exchange with the Fertitta brothers, Zhou You said goodbye to them, and his master did not have time to accompany them yet, because he had accepted the invitation of the young master to have lunch with him before returning to Singapore.

For Zhou You, Adelson and his partners, although important, but in comparison, the role of the young head is greater. Therefore, he can only get together with these friends and partners in the evening.

In the Rolls-Royce car, Yan Fangqing had already prepared the clothes to be changed for Zhou You, and as soon as Zhou You got in the car, he took off only a pair of shorts in front of the three women and changed into the clothes prepared by Yan Fangqing.

Although she doesn't have a good face for Zhou You, she has not forgotten the responsibility she should fulfill.

Today is November 17th, which is Saturday, and the young head did not go to work, but feasted and traveled around at home.

On this occasion, Paris and Gracia are of course not suitable to appear, Yan Fangqing knew this situation, and she also refused the invitation to her at the beginning, because in her opinion, it would not affect anything if she appeared in front of the young head once, and it was more important to solve the appearance of the two girls first.

The car drove directly to the door of the villa of the young master's family, but only Zhou You got out of the car alone, still carrying a lot of gifts in his hand. There is a set of Spanish Toledo bronze utensils, which was given to the young master.

A Spanish cowhide women's bag, which was given to He Jing, and a gift for their four children, was not a valuable item, and the most expensive was a Spanish classical guitar for his eldest daughter, which was only a few hundred dollars.

In fact, these gifts are not valuable, and if they are, they will not accept them. Otherwise, it would be the best gift to take a few antiques from your own antique harvest.

The guard who opened the door wanted to help Zhou You get the gift, but he refused, and he didn't want to waste his mind on just a few steps.

In the living room, as soon as Li Hao, the youngest son of the young head who was sitting in front of the TV, saw Zhou You coming in alone, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhou, why didn't Zhou Tao come over?" ”

Zhou You smiled: "He's at home, if you want to play with him, you can go to him at any time." ”

He glanced at the young master who got up from the sofa, pouted, and said, "I'll go to play with him when I have lunch." ”

This kid is twelve years old this year, he is eight years younger than the eldest brother, four years younger than the second brother, and several of the older ones are not willing to play with him. Zhou Tao is fifteen years old this year, but his personality is relatively accommodating, which also provokes him to often play with Zhou Tao.

This is mainly because there are too few peers in the villa area, and most of the third generation who live here are about the same age as Zhou You, and there are too few children like him.

And his family environment is more complicated, he can't go out crazy like other children, he can still play with his classmates when he goes to school, and he has almost no chance to go out during the holidays.

As usual, Zhou You still didn't see the eldest daughter and eldest son of the young master, and his eldest son had autism because of albinism. The eldest daughter is the same age as Zhou You, but she is a month younger than Zhou You, and she has a very close relationship with her grandmother, and spends most of her time living in the Boss's villa on Osley Road, accompanying the two old men.

gave the gift out, accompanied the young master and He Jing to chat a few words, and then went to wash his hands and sat down at the dining table.

The food of the young master's family is actually very ordinary, knowing that there is a big-bellied man who travels around, he deliberately added two more hard dishes, and it is only six dishes and one soup. Although it is not hearty, it pays attention to the nutritional matching.

During the meal, Ho Jing inquired with great interest about Zhou You's experience in salvaging the Royal Merchant, and Zhou You also told them in detail, and intended to ship these silver coins and antiques back to Singapore.

He will only keep about a ton of silver coins at most, and most of the rest will be sold after cleaning and repair. As for antiques, he also plans to keep only some of the historical value, and most of the rest will be sold to museums around the world.

The reason why it is shipped back to Singapore for sale is that Singapore has low taxes, and the Singapore government only pays a maximum of 16.5% tax on auction proceeds like this, but in Europe and the United States, almost half of the money has to be taxed.

What's more, his company has received so much support from Singapore, and it should also contribute to the local economy.

Although Zhou You expressed his loyalty, the young master did not seem very happy, but knocked on the table and said, "Let's eat first, and we'll talk after eating." ”

But sixteen-year-old Li Hengwu and twelve-year-old Li Haoyi were in awe of the magical experience of traveling, and for them, how exciting it was to drive a large ship and salvage antiques from hundreds of years ago in the sea!

Li Haoyi couldn't help but ask: "Brother Zhou, when your Ranger returns to Singapore, can you let me go to the ship to have fun?" ”

When he asked like this, even Li Hengwu yearned for it. Zhou You smiled: "Of course, when the Ranger comes back, I will invite you to visit the ship as soon as possible." ”

After eating, the two of them couldn't wait to sneak out to Zhouyou's house to play, there were guards, and they couldn't get out of the villa area, so they didn't send anyone to follow them.

He Jing poured two cups of tea for Shao Zhangmen and Zhou You, and made herself another cup of coffee, and the three of them sat down under the eaves in the back garden.

Although Zhou You knew that Shao Zhang's mood would not be good, because of the matter of the Royal Merchant, Britain probably did not put less pressure on Singapore, and it would be strange if his mood was good, but Zhou You did not expect him to be so angry.

As soon as Zhou You sat down, he said bluntly: "I know that you are a very thoughtful person, but I didn't expect you to be so bold as to go under the nose of the British to salvage their merchant ships." Do you know how passive that makes us go? After receiving a protest from the British government, many parliamentarians are eager to hand you over to the British. If it weren't for the fact that you ended up dealing better in Spain, and the British couldn't have lost their temper, I would have almost been able to bear the pressure. ”

Britain is the suzerainty of Singapore in history, and the Lui family, including the old boss, were educated in the UK, and even the old boss came to power because of the help of the UK. Therefore, although the UK is not the suzerainty of Singapore now, all sectors of society in Singapore are greatly influenced by the UK.

But in any case, Singapore is also an independent country, and it is impossible to give in because of a letter of protest. The young head said this, half of it was to warn Zhou You, and on the other hand, it was because of anger.

He was angry not because Zhou You went to salvage the Royal Merchant, but because Zhou You didn't say a word to him before doing this, so that he could be a little prepared. What's even more infuriating is that he still has to wipe Zhou You's ass in the back and help him get the court and the undersea authority.

Thinking that he has gone through ups and downs, he has been pitted by this young man during this time, and of course he is angry.

Of course, Zhou You knew that he was a little excessive, and said with a hippie smile: "If I tell you, you won't let me go to the salvage, and I won't dare to do it against you, then I will be uncomfortable." ”

"Then you dare to cut first and then play!" At this time, the young master couldn't help but be happy. Although the words are heavy, the mood is much better. After all, Zhou You can be regarded as a soft contender with him, and he also clearly said that he would listen to him, so that he was also satisfied with Zhou You's statement.

Zhou You said with a smile: "If it weren't for the mistake this time, resulting in the current harvest of only more than 300 million US dollars, then many of my plans could be implemented." Moreover, this is also good for Singapore's economy, if according to the original plan, 500 million silver coins and antiques will be salvaged, and the tax revenue to Singapore alone will be more than 80 million, and then I will spend more than 10 million yuan to donate a multi-purpose salvage ship to the navy, which is 100 million US dollars. ”

US$100 million is really nothing to a country, but it is not the same for Singapore. Because Singapore is too small, it is half smaller than Hong Kong, and its population is half smaller, although it is a country, but it is a city, and the government has an extra budget of 80 million US dollars, in fact, it can still do a lot of things.

Zhou You had such a hippie smile, and it was not good for the young head to keep a straight face, and said: "You hired old politicians like Rhodes and Volando as your think tank, and this move is very good." If it weren't for them, I'm afraid you would be forced to run around by the British government, and even we wouldn't be able to shelter you. ”

Zhou You immediately climbed the pole, he is young, and he also has an advantage in front of the young master, no matter how bad he is, he can be a junior. He smiled and said, "I will have a banquet for friends from all over the world at the Hilton Hotel tonight, and if Chairman Lu wants to meet them, it is just an opportunity." ”

He shook his head and said, "I'd better wait until the day after tomorrow to go over, tonight is not suitable for the past." ”
