Chapter 34 The Coming from the Center
"Warmly welcome home 'Asia's No. 1 Flyer'!"
There was a red banner hanging on the platform of the station, and Mr. Chen, Coach Zhou, Zhang Guan's parents, and the athletes who were usually familiar with Zhang Guan all arrived at the station to greet Zhang Guan.
The Provincial Sports Department gave Zhang Guan a very high reception standard, several leaders personally participated in the commendation meeting, and the leaders of the Provincial Department personally handed Zhang Guan the key to the house awarded.
For the provincial sports association, the achievement of a "Asia's first flyer" is not only an achievement, nor is it a historic breakthrough, but more importantly, it can help the unit to apply for more funds and financial subsidies in the next few years, which is a real benefit.
Since Zhang Guan's hometown happens to be the provincial capital, this saves a lot of time. The next day, the municipal government also held a commendation meeting for Zhang Guan, and the deputy mayor in charge of publicity in the city personally invited Zhang Guan to serve as the city's image ambassador, and Zhang Guan agreed on the spot. This kind of city ambassador is mainly borrowed from Zhang Guan's name, and Zhang Guan does not need to actually participate in anything, and of course there is no remuneration.
Zhang Guan's itinerary for the third day was to go back to school. Since being selected by Chen Lao to join the provincial track and field team a few months ago, Zhang Guan has left the school, and after a few months, Zhang Guan came back again, almost all the teachers and students of the school were present to welcome him.
In the conference room, the principal personally handed a thick stack of A4 paper to Zhang Guan, and said: "The school has helped you contact the major famous universities in the country, Tsinghua University, Peking University, Fudan University, Zhejiang University, Nankai, Tongji, etc., all of them are willing to interview and accept your admission. ”
"Thank you, Headmaster!" Zhang Guan took the manuscript paper and looked at it at a glance.
The conditions given by various schools are almost the same, and these universities are willing to recruit Zhang Guan and do not expect him to be able to study, what the school needs is Zhang Guan's "fame as Asia's No. 1 Flyer", so Zhang Guan only needs to go to the school to hang up his name.
"Fudan University is good, I want to go to Fudan." Zhang Guan said.
"Fudan?" The principal was slightly stunned, he thought that Zhang Guan would choose Tsinghua University or Peking University, but he didn't expect him to choose Fudan.
"You can think about it slowly, don't rush, anyway, there is still more than half a year." The headmaster spoke.
"I chose Fudan mainly because the Xinzhuang training base is there, and the training conditions there are better. And I think the air will be a little better, too. Zhang Guan said.
"I see. Xinzhuang training base is indeed a first-class track and field training place in China. The principal didn't know how to pretend to understand, he didn't care about what Zhang Guan said.
As a latecomer, Zhang Guan certainly knows how serious the smog in North China will be in the future, although there are still several years before the outbreak of smog in North China, but the industry in North China has entered a period of rapid development. Although the air in the Yangtze River Delta region cannot be said to be very good, it is much better than the high pollution in northern China.
Sports themselves require a lot of outdoor training, Zhang Guan doesn't want to breathe haze every day, so he chose the Yangtze River Delta region with relatively good air, and once the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway is opened in the future, it will be very convenient to go to the capital.
In the next few days, Zhang Guan's schedule was also full, and he didn't have a day to spare for a short vacation.
After a busy holiday, Zhang Guan returned to the training ground.
Chen Lao originally arranged technical training, but Zhang Guan's sore legs after the game told Chen Lao, and Chen Lao immediately realized that it was a physical problem, so he immediately changed the training plan, increased strength training, and improved Zhang Guan's physical strength.
There are still two months to go until New Year's Day, and the domestic event schedule is not so intensive, only next month there is a year-end Grand Prix of the National Track and Field Championships, which is a series of events, and players can participate in the year-end Grand Prix to compete for the annual championship by participating in the previous multi-stop races, and finally those who meet the points can participate in the year-end Grand Prix to compete for the annual championship. However, Zhang Guan did not participate in the previous races, so he did not get points, so he will not participate.
Zhang Guan's next competition is to participate in the National Indoor Track and Field Championships after the Spring Festival tomorrow.
……
In November, the provincial capital is already cold, although the temperature forecast is still above freezing, but a thin layer of hoarfrost has appeared on the branches of plants in the early morning, most of the trees have fallen leaves, and the grass has become yellow, only the pine holly and the like, still maintain an old green.
In this kind of early morning, it is undoubtedly a very pleasant thing to be able to lie in the quilt and sleep lazily until the sun rises, the sun shines on the buttocks, and then get up leisurely, leaning on the head of the bed and taking a daze to wake up. However, the athletes did not have the opportunity to enjoy this comfort, and in the morning before dawn, they got up and started their morning run.
For Zhang Guan, getting up early in winter is a very painful thing, but after experiencing this kind of pain, he is slowly getting used to it, at least his dedication is rewarding, and he can feel that his body is getting stronger day by day.
After the morning run, Zhang Guan came to the cafeteria for breakfast. The breakfast in the athletes' canteen is quite abundant, soy milk, milk and eggs are a must-have breakfast for athletes every morning, other such as noodles, steamed buns, buns, fritters, etc., in addition to several small pickles, there are also ham and dried tofu, and millet porridge is much thicker than the stalls sold outside.
However, the nutritionist has already formulated a special meal plan for Zhang Guan, such as fritters and the like are absolutely inedible, the ham contains too much starch, the bean paste is too sweet, these are not related to Zhang Guan, rice can not be eaten, millet porridge can be drunk, milk and eggs can be eaten as much as possible, and beef jerky is also specially dispensed as Zhang Guan's special food, which can be used as a snack or a dish. In short, Zhang Guan's meal is less oil, less salt, less sugar and more protein.
Asia's No. 1 flyer is eligible for some special treatment, not to mention that next year is an Olympic year, if Zhang Guan's Olympic performance is affected by logistical support problems, it is obviously worth the loss.
The same is true for lunch and dinner, where the special menu drawn up by the nutritionist and the small stove specially opened by the chef are much stronger than the big pot rice in terms of quality and taste.
In terms of accommodation, Zhang Guan also enjoyed a separate dormitory with separate toilets and bathrooms, all of which were equipped according to the standard equipment of the coach.
Regarding commercial development, the Athletics Management Center did not contact Zhang Guan until not long ago, when Director Yu called and told Zhang Guan, the world's most famous sports brand, Naike, that he hoped to sign Zhang Guan as a spokesperson, and had already contacted the Athletics Association.
A week later, the center finally arrived.
……
There was a director surnamed Sun from the center, and two people from Naike Company, one was a business manager surnamed Wang, and the other was a lawyer surnamed Zhu.
Director Sun directly handed Zhang Guan a few pieces of A4 paper and asked Zhang Guan to sign, obviously he had no intention of giving Zhang Guan a choice. Zhang Guan picked it up and took a cursory look, this is a contract to authorize commercial development, there is no agreed period, if Zhang Guan signs, he will have full authority to authorize his future commercial development to the center.
Zhang Guan did not read every word carefully, but he could see that the contract was very rough, the contract was marked in many places unclear, there were loopholes to drill, and there were several obviously overlord clauses, which were not protected in the Contract Law.
Zhang Guan thought about it, as a management department, it was not surprising to come up with this kind of contract. They did not consider the athletes as equal parties when they drew up the contracts, but believed that the athletes had to accept their management and requirements, without considering the reasonable issues at all. This phenomenon will not improve until a few years later, when the Federation of Sports and Sports continues to issue various regulations and norms.
Zhang Guan picked up the endorsement contract of Naike Company again, compared to the previous one, Naike's endorsement contract is too professional, a thick pile of manuscript paper stipulates every detail in great detail, and a large piece of dense explanations is enough to dazzle ordinary people, Zhang Guan estimated that if you look at this contract carefully, you can't finish reading it in an hour.
"Professional contracts are different." Zhang Guan sighed in his heart, compared to it, the contract of the center is like the menu of the grass platform team.
In Zhang Guan's experience, this kind of complex contract does not need to be seen too carefully, and there are no loopholes in the explanations that are corrected and combined, which should be the work of professional lawyers. endorsement fees and more.
Finally, Zhang Guan found what he wanted to know on the penultimate page.
The endorsement fee offered by Naike is 300,000 cash and 200,000 sports equipment sponsorship every Chinese New Year's Eve, which is the same price as Liu Feiren's endorsement this year, but the period is as long as five years.
When sports brands sign spokespersons, they often choose some long-term contracts, such as NBA stars who sign 10 years at a time, and even have lifetime endorsements, but this price makes Zhang Guan very dissatisfied. Zhang Guan felt that with his potential, the price of 300,000 yuan was clearly here to pick up the cheap.
And the five-year year also shows the shrewdness of the Naike company, five years later is the capital Olympics, if this endorsement contract takes effect immediately, Zhang Guan will carry the Naike brand to participate in the capital Olympics, Zhang Guan in the capital Olympics to achieve good results, Naike company will naturally not hesitate to increase the price to renew the contract, Zhang Guan's results are not good, Naike company may not continue to spend money. But one thing is for sure, when Zhang Guan, as the host athlete, can play in the Olympic Games, then the endorsement brand behind him will make a steady profit.
Zhang Guan pondered for a moment, put down the contract, and said, "I'm afraid I can't sign this contract." ”
