Chapter 313: The Big Contract
After staying in City C for a few days, Ye Feng >++|, and he was almost greeted by the most enthusiastic reception by local fans. Almost the same treatment as in the UK, all kinds of interviews, TV shows are waiting for him. Ye Feng also fully demonstrated his professionalism and coped with various interviews very satisfactorily. At the same time, I also took over a variety of advertisements for N. Ye Feng's popularity is a smash hit in China.
Ye Feng then had a rapport with senior figures from Sinopec and Lenovo, the two Williams team sponsors, to explain his transfer to the two Chinese manufacturers.
After all, the Williams team is still very important in Ye Feng's mind, and these two major manufacturers are enterprises in their own motherland. He didn't want his departure to expose the newly on-the-road Williams team to the influence of sponsors. And on the other hand, Ye Feng didn't want to leave that kind of impression in the minds of future sponsors that he would leave and be irresponsible.
Regarding Ye Feng's departure, the senior management of the two major companies was naturally a little reluctant. However, he was satisfied with Ye Feng's modest attitude and thoughtful attitude, and at the same time, he also expressed full understanding of his choice of Ferrari. Moreover, Sinopec and Lenovo are still very confident about the future cooperation with the Williams team, after all, they have won a new championship team with a sponsorship amount below the international level.
Therefore, this meeting was fully understood. It also leaves a good opportunity for possible future cooperation.
After completing these things in a hurry, Ye Feng finally set off for Germany. There, a crucial figure and a heavyweight contract awaited him. Ye Feng's new career journey in F1 is about to begin. Of course, this is done in a very low-key manner.
When Ye Feng and his entourage arrived in Germany. Schumacher hosted a low-key but grand welcome dinner for his chosen successor. The Che Wang at the dinner looked very good, was in a good mood, and kept taking Ye Feng and various celebrities who came to the dinner to meet and greet him.
The next day, Ye Feng and Schumacher took a private jet to the headquarters of the Scuderia Ferrari in Italy, and Ye Feng finally met the senior executives of Ferrari.
It seems that there is a lot of importance attached to this signing, except for Jean. In addition to Todd and others, even the owner of Ferrari, who rarely manages the day-to-day affairs of the team, Montzemorro, was also present in person.
It is different from the slightly old-fashioned and rigorous style of the British. This time the meeting between Ye Feng and Ferrari was even like a small tea party. The atmosphere was lively from the start, and the Ferrari hierarchy seemed pleased with the new world champion who spoke Italian fluently. So even after a pleasant luncheon, the two sides began more formal contract negotiations.
The negotiation work was naturally handed over to Zhang Yu and her team, who had been taking care of everything for Ye Feng. Unlike the last time Ye Feng negotiated a contract with Williams, this time in order to maximize the benefits for Ye Feng, Zhang Yu's team used almost all resources to make the best preparations. Soon, the enthusiastic Italians also quickly understood the true power of Zhang Yu, a smiling oriental beauty, at the negotiation table.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I beg your pardon for the fact that I have gathered some relevant information for this negotiation. We noticed that you previously offered Raikkonen a contract with an annual salary of $56 million, and now you are offering Ye Feng the same thing. (For web users, please visit www.) 1Download TXT format, mobile phone users log in to wap.1) I don't think it's appropriate! ”
He looked at the contract drawn up by Ferrari. Zhang Yu said with a smile to the Ferrari executives opposite. She also grabbed a sample contract drafted by her team and gave it to Jean. The Todds handed it over. Soon, the Italians who turned directly to the page of the contract amount gasped.
"$70 million in annual salary! Miss Zhang, this can pay Ye Feng such a high annual salary! In fact, the contract we have now for him is already extremely good! ”
Montezemolo did not speak, let. Todd first expressed his opposition. In his opinion, this Chinese beauty is obviously asking for a sky-high price. The lion opened his mouth. Now no one can be worth as much as 70 million US dollars, even if even the factor of Shuma>A back then), besides, Ye Feng is not Schumacher now.
"Nothing is impossible! Mr. Todd, I would like to remind you. My client is a new world champion! is a world champion who is only 23 years old! In the bidding, they can really figure out the true value of Ye Feng and the real value he can bring to Ferrari. And then you think that $70 million a year is not
The other party's expression is like this
It was within Zhang Yu's expectations. Ye Feng's actual annual salary has reached more than yuan before, so if he can't get a better contract on the side of Ferrari with deep pockets this time, then this transfer will not be of much significance. Zhang Yu will feel even more sorry for his younger brother. Of course, she will still grasp the balance of negotiations, after all, Schumacher and Ye Feng are still good friends.
So after the previous scene, the two parties began to bargain-for-tat over the amount of the contract and other related benefit terms
……
"Wow!! This is your gift to me? ”
Just when Zhang Yu and Ferrari executives were arguing with each other, Ye Feng was led by Schumacher and a staff member to the garage of Ferrari headquarters and came to a sports car wearing silver jerseys. Under the watchful eye of the King of the Cars. Ye Feng lifted his coat, and a red supercar was already displayed in front of Ye Feng. Although I don't know the specific model, this red sports car that is crawling tightly on the ground is like a monster ready to gallop at any time, full of explosive tension and dynamics.
Such a luxurious gift couldn't help but make a guy like Ye Feng, who had seen a lot of luxury cars, couldn't help but exclaim.
"How? Do you like it? This is the second product in the Ferrari range, but the best FXX you get as long as you sign a contract with the team, and the FXX is an experimental sports car that can only be run on the track. So I think this one will be used for your usual transportation. It's a gift after you win me! ”
Schumacher also smiled at Ye Feng at this time, Ye Feng has now studied this sports car with a lot of admiration. A good car is indeed the best gift for a car lover.
"This Ferrari is limited to 399 units worldwide, equipped with a 6-liter 12 engine, a maximum horsepower of 650, a top speed of 350 miles per hour, and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.6 seconds, making it the world's top supercar......"
At this time, the Ferrari staff who came with the two of them also began to automatically introduce the sports car to Ye Feng, and the more Ye Feng listened, the more surprised he became, when he asked the staff that this limited edition sports car cost at least 650,000 euros, he froze, and it took a long time to >Road:
"Michael, I really like this car! However, it is too precious! So, I guess I can't take it! It's really too valuable! ”
"Huh! Less of that! If you like it, take it, I haven't given anyone else a sports car except for my family! Don't let me not get off the stage the first time I give you a gift! ”
Schumacher said after patting Ye Feng's shoulder with a smile, then opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot seat first.
"Hey, hey! Michael, it's really too valuable...... Thank you so much! ”
Ye Feng still wanted to say something, but when he saw that Lao Shu was about to glare at him, he quickly shut up and accepted the most valuable gift he had ever received.
"Let's go! Let's go out for a lap and try the performance of the car yourself! ”
With Schumacher's words, Ye Feng also sat in the cockpit, and then with the roar of the motor, accompanied by the envious eyes of the staff, this car began its first gallop.
……
"Michael, don't you want to say anything to me about this contract negotiation? I mean, while my team is doing their best to get the best out of me, if you could say anything, I'll get the team to lower our terms appropriately! ”
After a wild run, Ye Feng, who was already about to drive the sports car back to the garage, said to Schumacher while driving. Ye Feng, who has now calmed down from the excitement of receiving the gift, feels that Lao Shu must have something to say to him when he gives himself such a gift for no reason, and the contract negotiation should be the thing that Ferrari needs the most help from the car king at present.
"Hehe, you, what kind of person do you think I am! I can declare that I didn't give you the car for any other purpose, and if you think so much, I don't give you this gift!
Send the car to the car, negotiate to negotiate, one yard to one yard. And I'm loyal to Ferrari, but you're my friend. So after I pull you into this team, your negotiations with the team are none of my business.
Besides, I've been a driver. F1 drivers earn their money hard, but it's hard money! Why should I let you earn less? So don't say anything like that in the future. But I want to warn you, Todd's gang is still very difficult to handle! It's up to your beautiful agent to win the game for you! ”
……
Two days later, the final outcome of the negotiations was finally determined after several painstaking discussions. Ye Feng's annual salary was finally determined at 65 million US dollars, which is equivalent to a simple ceremony, and after a simple ceremony, Ye Feng finally signed his name on this contract, which was also four years.
