Chapter Eighty-Six: Economic Aid

The day was still the same as usual, and Lu Fei arrived at the club early.

Today, the atmosphere in the function room of the MDK Club is too different from usual.

Chris and the others didn't start training, but they were talking about it.

"What's going on?" Lu Fei stepped forward.

"Lu, I'm waiting for you." Chris greeted him warmly, "Mr. Sean informed everyone that everyone in the club will have a meeting in the conference room on the 5th floor, and he has something very important to announce. ”

"Oh?" Lu Fei glanced back at Huo Xixian.

Huo Xixian smiled and did not speak.

Lu Fei noticed that Alice next to him seemed to be smiling happily.

"Do you have any inside information?" Lu Fei asked suspiciously.

"Nope." The two said in unison.

Lu Fei glanced at them suspiciously, turned around and walked towards the elevator, Alice covered her mouth and smiled secretly.

The conference room was packed.

There are people Lu Fei knows, and there are people he doesn't know.

Sean and Green sat together, on the other side of the oval conference table, there were several middle-aged people with serious expressions sitting side by side, but looking at the straight suits, Lu Fei judged that these people should be business people.

"Please be seated, everybody." Sean beckoned.

More than 20 people from the club's players, coaches, technicians, and maintenance sat down around the conference table.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have two very important news to announce today, one is good news and one is bad news." The expression on Sean's face showed no sign of bad news, on the contrary, he seemed to be smiling all the time.

Chris said, "May I ask Mr. Sean, what's the bad news?" ”

"The bad news is that from today, I will no longer be the head of MDK Club, and Sean Golf Company will no longer be a sponsor of the club," Sean said. ”

"Whoop——! The conference room exploded, and the sudden news was so surprising.

Lu Fei couldn't help but look at Green, who nodded slightly to him.

Sean continued: "Guys, the new head of the MDK club will be headed by Windana? Mr. Green. ”

"This is ......," Lu Fei was taken aback.

Chris and others were also surprised, everyone knows that Mr. Green is the most famous scout, no one would have thought that he would come to a small club like MDK to be the head of the company, what did he think?

For a while, everyone was very puzzled.

"Everyone, be quiet." Sean waved his hand, "The good news is that from today, the official sponsor of the club will be Nordstrom, in partnership with ACTV. ”

"Huh?" Everyone was completely stunned at this time.

Nordstrom, which is one of the retail giants in the United States and well-known overseas, was founded in 1901, headquartered in Seattle, mainly engaged in high-end brands, clothing and accessories, daily necessities and other things, branches all over the world, annual sales of more than 10 billion US dollars.

However, Radio America is quite influential in the United States, and its reputation may be worse than that of CNN and ABC, but it is just as deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, because he mainly faces a large number of Asians, and there are also many branch radio stations under his command, and the EPS TV station where Huo Xixian once stayed in Seattle is its branch organization.

With these two companies suddenly becoming sponsors of the MDK Club, everyone should understand what that means?

"This is Mr. Bragg, the owner of Nordstrom." Sean introduced.

The middle-aged man, who was a little chubby, stood up and nodded slightly, "Hello everyone, I'm very glad that we all have the opportunity to cooperate." ”

Everyone looked at him silently.

Bragg said in a deep voice: "I bought a 70% stake in Mr. Sean's CS esports club for $2 million, and I am the chairman of this club from today, and I have decided not to change the registration of this club, and I have also decided to inject another $5 million to grow it." ”

"Wow!" The crowd was taken aback, and then applauded vigorously.

"This is Mr. Huo Jingde, the head of ACTV." Sean continued.

Seeing Huo Jingde's standard Oriental face, with slight wrinkles on his forehead, and a shrewd and capable temperament of a businessman all over his body, Lu Fei couldn't help but turn his gaze to Huo Xixian.

Huo Xixian smiled at him and nodded.

Huo Jingde smiled: "Everyone, ACTV Radio acquired 30% of the shares of the MDK club for 800,000 US dollars, to put it simply, it is me and Mr. Prague who jointly acquired the club, and ACTV will also inject another 2 million US dollars into the club, making the MDK club a large club with more than 10 million capital injection." ”

Huo Jingde smiled and said: "Because Mr. Prague and I are busy on weekdays, we have unanimously decided that Mr. Green will be the head of this club, responsible for the daily economic operation, except for the players who are about to transfer, we will keep all the players from the previous club, and at the same time, we have decided to set up a separate brokerage company and appoint Miss Huo Xixian as the general manager." ”

Huo Xixian and Green both stood up and thanked him.

Lu Fei was completely shocked.

The injection of 10 million US dollars, which is equivalent to 80 million yuan, is a very scary concept.

In Lu Fei's memory, it will be after 0405 that large clubs with an injection of 10 million yuan will appear in China, such as Bada, TR, and Nv.

But that's just an asset flow, and there is definitely not so much money that can really be used for operation, but foreign sponsors are all cash flow, and there is really so much money available for operation as much as the amount of capital injected.

And now it's only 02 years, and the club that exceeds 80 million yuan can no longer be called large, but a super-large luxury club.

Lu Fei had previously inquired from Huo Xixian that there are currently only five clubs in the world with a capital injection value of more than 10 million US dollars, one is the Nvidia club to which the 3D team belongs, the second is the CompLexity club belonging to coL, the third is the Schroet Kommando club belonging to the Swedish SK team, the fourth is the King of England club belonging to 4King, and the fifth is the SKTT1 club of South Korea, a major e-sports country. The sponsors are all multinational companies that call for wind and rain in the mall.

Now that MDK will become the sixth super club in the world after these five founding fathers, it is clear that the two big owners are determined to invest in this MDK as a potential stock and build it into a famous brand stock.

Lu Fei looked at Huo Xixian, and then at Mr. Green, he really couldn't imagine that the two of them had such a great ability to bring in such terrifying economic reinforcement.

For a while, Lu Fei's admiration for Mr. Green was even greater.

This is to be a teacher, he must be determined to do a good job, take a good road, and he will spare no effort to carry it out.

"You must work harder, or I'm sorry for Mr. Green's hard work." Lu Fei secretly made up his mind.

Huo Jingde continued: "We have decided to increase the salary package of the players, and we have prepared a new contract, if you have no opinion, we can sign it in the office downstairs. ”

"Good!" There was a wave of applause in the conference room, and this news was what everyone wanted to hear the most.

And Liu Jins and Lanna both looked at each other, knowing that the club would have such earth-shaking changes, and they still fart.

It's called walking for money, and finally being played for money.

All morning, the representatives and clerks brought in by the two new bosses were preparing contracts for everyone.

Among all the club owners, only Lu Fei has the highest contract treatment.

This is a formal standard professional superstar contract, the time limit of the contract is signed every six months, during this half year, Lu Fei's basic salary is 2,400 US dollars per month, and the prize money of each event is distributed on the principle of 55, and the club should account for 5 shares; Lu Fei will receive good benefits from first-class citizens in the United States, including pensions, medical insurance, life insurance, property insurance, housing allowance, age allowance, voting rights, election rights, etc., which the club will apply for for him in the future.

However, one of the most bizarre is that according to the laws of the local Maryland state, if Lu Fei marries in the future, if the woman is an American woman, Lu Fei can have the right to divide and inherit the other party's property.

"I really don't know what this one is for?" Lu Fei smiled bitterly.

Ai Li said without any twist: "This article is very useful, if Ah Fei marries me in the future, you will be very rich." ”

"Pounce!" Lu Fei sprayed a mouthful of water on the monkey's face.

In fact, the biggest economic benefit of the contract for Lu Fei is advertising, Lu Fei will give priority to advertising endorsements for Nordstrom and ACTV, and the income from endorsement is a commission of 10% of advertising revenue.

As we all know, Nordsström never advertises in its own stores, but only brand-name bags and clothing will choose spokespersons, and Nordstrom's advertising stars include many well-known people from all walks of life, including basketball superstar Durant, football superstar Kaka, movie star Tom Hanks, Sarah Michelle and so on.

Huo Xixian evaluated it, with Lu Fei's current fame and influence, it is not much different from a 3D superstar, even if he guarantees the current I League results on the CAL, Lu Fei has an annual salary of close to 150,000 US dollars, which is very good for the American league that is not too mature.

If you add CPL, CG, ACON, America's Cup, Japan's Toyota Cup, and Korea's Masters Invitational, once the results are achieved, these intangible business values are simply incalculable.

However, this contract also has very strict additional terms, that is, Lu Fei is not allowed to loan, transfer and many departures without the permission of the sponsor, and once it happens, Lu Fei will have to pay the price of compensation.

Overall, Lu Fei once again used his own strength to reflect his commercial value.

The two bosses also have a lot of trust in Mr. Green, and they also make very human reservations.

The club still guarantees the existence of the MDK logo and will apply for the CAL Organizing Committee's ranking in the I-League;

The technical coach is still Chris;

The composition of the first team members: Lu Fei, Monkey, Machine Gun, Lyon;

second-line team members, technology, maintenance, cleaning, daily affairs or the original team;

Huo Xixian will become the general manager of the brokerage company to escort the financial problems of Lu Fei and other team members;

The only exception is Alice, who will no longer be Lu Fei's translator, because Lu Fei's English level is currently qualified, and Alice will become Lu Fei's personal assistant.

This position is really peculiar, Lu Fei has been mixed CS for so many years, and it is the first time I have seen that a player can also have an assistant.

Vaguely, he felt that Mr. Green, Huo Xixian, and Alice had a very mysterious connection with these two sponsors, but he didn't ask, he understood that the three of them were really helping themselves, so why bother?

Sometimes knowing less is a good thing.

When Huo Jingde left the club, he just looked at Huo Xixian, and then looked at Lu Fei meaningfully: "The young man is good, but he looks a little shorter." ”

Lu Fei was confused.

"Come on, fight for the Chinese." Huo Jingde said, "Because my ancestral home is in Shanghai. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Huo, I will." Lu Fei nodded vigorously.

Green walked over and said, "Lu, come on, there is nothing to worry about now, everything will be done according to your ideas, and I will fully support you." ”
