Chapter 420: The Value of the Existence of the Training Camp
Shen Feng's expected annual income in 2019 will reach 50 million euros, which is much worse than Messi, Ronaldo, and Neymar, who are at least 80 million euros.
However, Shen Feng himself is already quite satisfied with this.
Compared with the annual income of just over 10 million euros when he was in Jianye team, it has increased several times.
Shen Feng, who was bent on the court and had no other expenses, really didn't know how to spend it in the face of such a large sum of money.
When he transferred from Jianye to Inter Milan, the transfer fee of 35 million euros paid by Inter Milan for him had already paid him an additional 5 million euros for his signature fee, which was donated by Shen Feng to host the "National Youth Football Training Camp".
Although this money is not very large, it is enough to support the operation of the "National Youth Football Training Camp" for ten years.
The "National Youth Football Training Camp" seems to be a big scale, but the actual cost is not as big as imagined.
In addition, because the training camp was led by Shen Feng, it received great attention in the Dragon Kingdom, and many businesses competed to pay for sponsorship, and they grabbed their heads for the only sponsorship places.
In fact, those sponsorship fees alone are enough for the normal operation of the training camp, and there is no need to use the principal invested by Shen Feng at all.
After leading the Dragon Country team to win the Asian Cup championship and helping the Inter Milan team return to the top of Europe after 9 years in just half a season after landing in Europe, Shen Feng's popularity in the Dragon Country is unmatched!
Not only in the sports circle, no one can match, even if it extends to the entertainment industry, no one can reach it!
Because those top stars in the Dragon Country entertainment industry have now become fans of Shen Feng.
Shen Feng is in the Dragon Country, and he has truly become a household name!
Such an influence has unimaginable monetization ability.
The sales of his genuine jerseys in the Inter Milan team is the most intuitive proof of this.
If Shen Feng lets go of commercial endorsements, the endorsement contracts he can get will definitely not only be the seven or eight now, but it is possible to double or even triple on this basis!
It's just that Shen Feng attaches great importance to his personal image, and he doesn't have too strong a thirst for money, so his attitude towards commercial endorsements has always been rather lacking than indiscriminate.
Now, Shen Feng has become one of the top superstars in international football, and of course he must be cautious in the choice of commercial endorsements, and the brand he chooses is also consistent with his current identity.
Such a principle has abandoned a large number of second- and third-tier brands for him, and he can only cooperate with international first-line brands.
Those second- and third-tier brands, if they want to rub Shen Feng's popularity, can only find another way, and the "National Youth Football Training Camp" organized by him has become a sweet spot in the eyes of those small businesses.
With Shen Feng's appeal, this start-up training camp, as soon as the plan was announced, it attracted great attention in China.
The attention is much higher than the youth training program that the Dragon Football Association invests hundreds of millions of dollars every year!
Shen Feng engaged in this training camp, not to compete with the youth training department of the Dragon Football Association, but to contribute to the youth training career of Dragon Football Association.
To this end, the training camp specifically stipulates that the young players who sign up for the training camp must be full-time students in primary and secondary schools, and professional football schools and echelon players from professional clubs are not accepted to participate.
Shen Feng engaged in this training camp because he wanted to increase the number of basic people involved in football, and he did not plan to deal with those talented young players who were selected by professional football schools and professional club echelons early.
Those young players who showed their talent early are already receiving more formal football training and guidance, and do not need to go to training camp to experience.
In fact, according to Shen Feng's plan, the scale of the training camp should not be as small as it is now, and the number of small players involved can be expanded tenfold, which is his goal!
In his schedule, in the future, training camps like this will be carried out across the country during the summer vacation, five to ten camps at the same time, preferably one in each provincial administrative region.
It is not realistic for each provincial-level administrative region to have a training camp, the territory of the Dragon Kingdom is too vast, and Shen Feng's ability alone is really limited.
However, the country's 34 provincial-level administrative regions can be divided into several regions, and each region will set up a training camp.
This year, because it is only the first phase, it is just to experiment with the model of training camp, whether it will help the development of youth football, so the scale is relatively small.
After the end of this training camp and the successful experience is summed up, the subsequent training camp can be expanded step by step.
During the preparation of the training camp, Shen Feng could not participate in the whole process because of his own work, but only contacted Jia Xiuquan and Xu Yang once a week to communicate the progress of some preparations.
Now, Shen Feng has entered the vacation period, and there is nothing else to do, so he puts all his energy on the training camp.
Although he couldn't eat and live with the young players in the training camp, Shen Feng's stay in the Longzihu High School District in the commercial city reached fifteen days during the forty-five days of training camp - this also deducts the nine days that were delayed because of participating in the America's Cup.
It can be said that Shen Feng's vacation was almost spent in the training camp.
Every day, he chooses a different team and trains with the young players.
Shen Feng's implementation, of course, is his own training plan, and he also took the opportunity to let the young players see how hard they need to work on weekdays if they want to reach the level of top professional players!
Shen Feng's example greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the young players for training, and the atmosphere in the camp was very good throughout the training camp.
The technical and tactical level of the young players has been improved to varying degrees, and more than 30 games have also allowed them to gain a lot of practical experience.
Compared with those talented young players who are studying in professional football schools or have entered the echelon of professional clubs, the level of young players in the "National Youth Football Training Camp" is much worse.
However, after a month and a half of training camp, more than 30 of the more than 1,000 young players who participated were spotted by scouts from professional clubs, and after obtaining the consent of their parents, decided to go on the path of professional footballers.
Among them, there are five young players who have directly won the favor of European professional clubs and have the opportunity to study and train in Europe.
Shen Feng didn't know what the future achievements of these young players would be, but they were able to be excavated in the training camp, which proved the meaning of the training camp.
