Chapter 189 ESC Eve

Huo Xixian, of course, will not be idle.

During the time that Lu Fei and others were studying in Europe, she had already contacted PepsiCo in China and Samsung Electronics in South Korea.

Pepsi's influence needs to be overstated, and Huo Xixian is well aware that the current situation of the American Club is unlikely to allow PepsiCo to invest in esports in China.

02 years of Chinese CS is because of many disasters and difficulties, Pepsi company to be afraid, last year's "Beijing Blue Extreme Fire" made Pepsi organize the Mirinda competition stillborn, the fire indirectly burned Pepsi more than one million yuan, although this money is just a drop in the bucket for such a large group, but Pepsi Cola is afraid of China's CS circle, turning advertising to the entertainment industry and football world.

If it weren't for Huo Xixian's acquaintance with PepsiCo's high-level leaders in the United States, these official representatives would not have been invited to discuss cooperation today.

Huo Xixian's business philosophy is very ingenious, and in her consciousness, she is trying to build Lu Fei into an influential entertainment advertising star.

Her conditions were also very direct: "Mr. Hebrew, my request is actually very simple, now your Pepsi sales in China are amazing, according to my statistics, on average, one out of ten Chinese Chinese will buy a bottle of your company's drink every day." ”

Hebrew was a little surprised: "It is said that Miss Alva is well-informed, and it is really better to meet than to be famous, since Miss Alva is so happy, then let's just say it, what is Miss Alva's request?" ”

Huo Xixian smiled: "It's very simple, I hope that the portrait rights of any of the members of our CHN team can be sold to you, of course, my personal wishes are my good friend Lu Fei." ”

Hearing this, Hebrew immediately understood what Huo Xixian's purpose was.

Every year, Pepsi drinks are printed with portraits of advertising spokespersons, all of whom are the world's most popular stars, such as Brazilian superstar Robert Carlos in football, Madonna in the entertainment industry, and Aaron Kwok and Jay Chou in China.

Hebrew got up from the sofa, looked at the rockery fountain in the office and smiled: "Alva, your idea is indeed good, but with all due respect, I have also heard of your CHN, Lu is not yet a star with huge popularity, he may be a king in your e-sports circle, but his influence cannot be compared with the current spokesperson." ”

Huo Xixian also stood up and said: "In less than half a year, the Korean 2003CG that caused a sensation all over the world will be held in Seoul, and you have also invested a lot in this CG, right?" What do you mean is that CHN has not yet produced results, what if they do? ”

Hebrew smiled: "Of course, there is a way to do it after the results, but it is not out after all." ”

Huo Xixian said: "What if I can be sure that CHN can produce results? ”

Hebrew laughed even harder: "Alva, you are also a businessman, you should know how much risk you have to take in such a judgment. ”

"Of course I know that, but I know better the value of the players under my command."

Suddenly Hebrew stopped speaking.

Huo Xixian hurriedly added: "I know that there is a big risk, but the risk does not need to be borne by you, I also have a proposal, if you are willing to cooperate with us, we will not take a penny, and you do not need to pay the endorsement fee, and you do not need to pay for the whole year this year." ”

This is probably the most comfortable request that Pepsi has heard, and the spokesperson actually doesn't want an endorsement fee.

You must know that PepsiCo's advertising expenses for image spokespersons are astronomical, such as the advertising expenses of superstar Robert Carlos, PepsiCo has to pay more than 10 million US dollars a year.

Hebrew and Huo Xixian have known each other for a long time, and they know Huo Xixian's personality very well, and they know that she is definitely not a big talker.

"Well, Alva, I'll bring your proposal back to the U.S. headquarters, and as for the decision, I can give you a private reply here, and we'll talk about it after this year's CG is over?" Hebrew said sincerely.

Huo Xixian nodded: "Okay then." ”

Hebrew turned around and left the office, which soon welcomed a second group of guests, representatives of the Korean company Samsung.

Samsung's Kim Youyouke is not as friendly as Hebrew at all, and after patiently listening to Huo Xixian's request, he made it clear: "Miss Huo, this is impossible. ”

"Why?"

"Samsung selects 10 spokespersons every year, eight of whom must be Koreans, and Chinese can occupy up to one place. ”

Huo Xixian has to admit that this is indeed the case, the spokesperson of Samsung in 03 is only Lin Xinru in China, and the others are all Korean stars such as Lee Hyo-ri Jun Ji-hyun, it seems that Koreans are not ordinary rejection of foreigners.

After talking for a long time, there was no progress between the two sides, and Jin Youyou got up and said, "Actually, Miss Huo, you don't need to spend money for the Chinese team at all." ”

Huo Xixian was puzzled: "Why?" ”

Jin Youyou: "The sponsor of this year's CG is still Samsung Electronics, with all due respect, the Chinese team is not good at all, you are an American and I am not afraid to say it directly, you look at China, there are so many shady scenes in the CS circle, even the world champion Lu Fei can be sold for thousands of dollars, to be honest, if it were not for the fact that Samsung Electronics has such a large consumer market in China, I was the first on the board to disagree with CG's pre-selection to leave a place for China this year, the level is so inferior that even the ACON exhibition match did not invite Chinese, Because the level is too rubbish, you can criticize me for using rude words, but you also saw last year that the Chinese actually cheated on CG and lied about the age of the players, do you think I was right? ”

These words almost didn't blow up Huo Xixian's lungs, but she still replied patiently: "Mr. Kim, you're right, I hope my team won't have the problems you said in this year's CG." ”

"Of course, maybe it's limited to the pre-selection in China, good luck Miss Huo, I'll leave first."

After a group of people from Samsung left.

Huo Xixian sat in the office for a long time and couldn't calm down.

After forcibly drinking a few glasses of cold water, she calmed down.

Jin Youyou's words are very direct and very sharp, it turns out that Lu Fei has not been recognized by world-renowned manufacturers, and the efforts made by her and Lu Fei are far from enough, Lu Fei lacks achievements and support.

After thinking for a long time, Huo Xixian picked up the phone on the table and dialed Lu Fei's number: "Lu Fei, where are you now?" ”

At this time, Lu Fei had already finished his trip to Denmark and came to Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, where he was meeting with his old friend Vesslan.

"Sister Huo, is there something wrong with this late hour?" Lu Fei asked on the other end of the phone.

Huo Xixian said in a deep voice: "Lu Fei, I have changed my original plan now, and now you don't go to the 4K Club in London, England to meet Mr. Rand from Carlsberg, but go to Paris, France to meet Alice directly." ”

"Why?" Lu Fei was puzzled.

Huo Xixian said: "Time is pressing, I need you to come back as soon as possible, I need results now." ”

Lu Fei was silent on the other end of the phone for a while before replying, "Okay then." ”

He didn't argue with Huo Xixian, and he also knew that Huo Xixian must have her own reasons.

CHN plans to visit Europe with five stops: Munich, Germany, Gohaben, Denmark, Stockholm, Sweden, London, and finally Paris, France, where ESC will be held.

During this period, we will visit a total of six famous teams, including Mouz from Germany, NoA from Denmark, Team9 from Sweden, SK from Sweden, 4K from the United Kingdom, and GG from France.

Of course, now that the penultimate leg has been cancelled and almost two months later, ESC 2003 will soon be held in Poisje, a small town near Paris, France.

The new convention and exhibition center has been built, and it is even more magnificent than when Lu Fei came to participate in the competition last year.

Lu Fei and others came to Poitje a week in advance, at this time the player village was already very lively, this competition, a total of more than 60 countries and regions teams participated, more competitions, CS, FIFA, Q3, ar3 and so on.

As always, the organizing committee invited many first-class teams from all over the world to participate in the competition.

But this time, the biggest call for winning the championship is still SK and 3D, especially SK.

SK has just completed the transfer of Element, which is generally favored by the media.

"It's still a week to go, why haven't I seen our Chinese delegation yet?" Lu Fei felt strange, generally speaking, before the start of the competition, he should arrive at the final venue a week in advance to adapt to the environment.

China and France straddle the Eurasian continent, travel more than 10,000 kilometers, the time difference is 7 hours, and the climate is completely different from China, why is the Chinese delegation nowhere to be seen?

Alice said, "Oh, our Ne4Mm and 5Love MMs are not Chinese?" ”

Lu Fei smiled: "I'm talking about the official Chinese men's delegation. ”

Alice pouted and said, "Lu, in my opinion, you want to play, hum, little look." ”

Lu Fei smiled: "I'm a spectator, come and cheer for our Chinese team." ”

Duan Jiu came up and said, "Bo, Boshi." ”

"What do you want to do?" Alice glanced at him.

Duan Jiudao: "I, I'm poor these days, I'm scared of poverty, give me some money, I'll buy a pack of cigarettes, there are red plums in Paris that don't sell, I want to smoke red plums, the kind that costs 5 yuan a pack." ”

A group of people stared at him with wide eyes: "You can die again." ”

Duan Jiu shouted, "How can you say 'again'? ”

Lei Ming stretched out his hand and gave him a punch: "Xiao'er, be careful of Lao Tzu beating you." ”

The crowd laughed again.
