Although AutoNavi has made all preparations, there is also Jason. Ferguson personally came over to make sure. But there will always be some variables, such as some needed time for the business conference, because it was delayed in some ways, so in the end the lack of time had to be cancelled. Although it was canceled for various reasons, it made Liu Hongwei feel distressed. Because such events have sponsorship fees and income. It's a pity that because it was canceled, it lost a lot of money, although it is not a big head, but there are millions of yuan. It's all money.

But there is no way. However, the benefits of Manchester United are definitely more crazy than expected, and the commercial value of Beckham, like Beckham, is too high. A lot of domestic companies want to be able to get them to endorse them. Such negotiations are quick and can be concluded in a short period of time. And then those stars spend an hour, an hour and a half shooting an advertisement, and the income is hundreds of thousands of pounds. It's too easy to earn.

Either it is a year's endorsement of the player, or half a year's endorsement of the player. The same is true for AutoNavi. This business competition is an all-round cooperation, and a part of the endorsement fees earned by those stars must also be shared with AutoNavi. Because these sponsors are all approached by AutoNavi, and then AutoNavi negotiates with Manchester United stars. And when AutoNavi invites Manchester United, it will also win the image rights of those players for half a year or a year. Although Manchester United is a very commercial club, such a commercial competition is still in the exploration stage. That's why AutoNavi is much cheaper. This is a very unexpected income, so Liu Hongwei happily doesn't know what to say.

Needless to say, the tickets are gone. This time Manchester United came in full gear, which was completely different from the lack of Ferguson, Beckham, and Keane back then. With them, there is enough appeal. The cheapest tickets in the competition in Guangzhou are 80, and there are 12, 200, 400, 800, and 2,000 tickets in six denominations. Even so, tickets for Manchester United's games are hard to come by in Guangzhou.

It's not just Manchester United. Lazio in Shanghai was also very popular. Although there is Hongkou Football Stadium, the official football stadium of Shanghai Shenhua, this time the game was placed in Shanghai Stadium. Because Hongkou Stadium can only accommodate 35,000 people, while Shanghai Stadium can accommodate 65,000 people, or even a little more, it can accommodate 70,000 or 80,000 people.

But this time, 65,000 people were chosen. The tickets were very popular, and the game was completely sold out by half a month to go. Ticket revenue in Shanghai is almost 30 million yuan. Although it is not as good as Manchester United, because the ticket price is a little cheaper, the ticket income is still very high.

Tickets in Beijing are even more expensive. But because Beijing is a strong dialogue between Manchester United and Lazio, it is even more attractive to fans.

Judging from the current situation, the ticket revenue alone will easily exceed 100 million yuan. Although these revenues still need to be shared with the stadium, most of them still belong to AutoNavi in proportion. Looking at the income, Rist also smiled. Because all this money is profit. Judging from the current situation, this business competition is definitely very profitable.

For this business competition, Liu Hongwei worked hard. So now he can't close his mouth when he sees these incomes.

"Mr. Liu, although we are making money, we must not give people the impression that we only recognize money. Even if we make a little less money this time, we have to make it enjoyable for the fans. Close the distance between you and the fans. ”

Rist thought for a moment. This time the profit looks like a lot. But Rist is not looking at what is in front of him. Rist looks to the future. But you must not offend the fans, you must satisfy the fans. If it really makes fans and media angry, then the Chinese commercial competition is likely to fall into a slump in the next few years. Rist didn't want that. The enthusiasm of the Chinese fans must not be extinguished. In the future, Rist still wants to operate the China tour of giants such as Real Madrid, Milan, and Barcelona, and must not leave fans with the appearance of greedy for money.

Liu Hongwei was stunned for a moment and did not answer directly. Now he is a little flustered, because he knows that he has succeeded in this business competition. After this operation, AutoNavi's strength has soared, and it will crush all domestic competitors in this industry. Never thought of the question that Rist asked.

When Liu Hongwei operated this business competition, he only saw how to increase revenue and increase profits. As for the development of the fan market, he didn't think about these things at all. The fans were not considered at all. Therefore, Liu Hongwei did not answer directly. Seeing Liu Hongwei's appearance, Lister shook his head, in history, Real Madrid's trip to China also gave Liu Hongwei a huge income. But what was left behind was a huge infamy, because it was too commercial.

As a result, in the next two or three years, Chinese fans did not buy the giant commercial game very much, so the giant commercial game fell into a huge downturn for a while. This was not what Lister was hoping for.

"Mr. Liu, the water flows for a long time. Business is inexhaustible, and we can only continue to make money by leaving a reputation. A year or two? No, we should look at eight years and ten years. This is a big cake, today we invite Manchester United, next year, the year after we will operate Real Madrid, Milan and other giants to China. If we offend the media and fans too much this time, how will we make money next time? And we have to not only focus on the domestic market, in fact, we can monopolize the Asian market. ”

At present, the most influential sports and cultural company in Asia is the all-round sports company, and its main business is to be responsible for the sports events in the Asian part. They are responsible for the promotion of many sports events in Asia, and even some giants have hosted competitions in Asia. They first got the rights to those big clubs to travel to Asia, and then sold him to various national sports companies.

They're just an alternative contractor. Relying on their international influence across the company, relying on their connections in foreign giants' clubs.

It's this market that Rist is targeting. This trip to China between Manchester United and Lazio was not made through the all-round sports company because it was directly contacted by Lister. But in the future, you may have to deal with them, and a lot of the profits will have to be handed over to them. It is better for AutoNavi to become such an Asian company and monopolize this industry.

"Yes. Rist. I'll take notice. ”

Liu Hongwei is also an ambitious person. As long as this business competition is successfully held, AutoNavi will be a giant in China. If it can really monopolize the market in East Asia and Southeast Asia, then it will become a large international company in the future.

Fans, fans. Liu Hongwei has never thought about this, but listening to Lister's words does make some sense, just like what Lister said, it is necessary to be a long stream. This business can't stop making money after it ends this year, and it will continue to make money.

…………

Rist was originally prepared to serve Manchester United from start to finish. But Rist had not yet established any relationship with Ferguson when he received a call from Ricardo. Ricciardo has made it clear to Rister that he now has several young talents and wants to recommend them to him.

Rist thought for a moment. It's important to have a good relationship with Alex Ferguson. But at this stage, it doesn't look like much of a chance. Ferguson didn't like it very much. And Rist's service to Manchester United has been considerate these days. He also had a good relationship with several of the players at Manchester United. Because a lot of the players are coming to China for the first time, they are very curious about China.

So they all want to visit Chinese cities. Lister directly acted as a guide for them and took them to visit the major tourist spots in Guangzhou. And take them everywhere to buy things. Many Manchester United players are grateful for Rist's attentive service, even if they have not become good friends.

And importantly, with this business Celeste and Jason. Ferguson is in good shape. That's the biggest takeaway. I have a good relationship with the small one. Can the old one still run away?

That's why Rist chose to meet Ricardo. How about looking at the players that Ricardo introduced? Rist's idea is simple, the Portuguese agent naturally has a good relationship with South American football, which is formed by historical origins. Plus the reason for Figel and Mascaldi, the two South American agent predators. Portuguese football has a lot of Brazilian and Argentine players.

This natural advantage is completely incomparable, just like Figer can't meddle in Czech football no matter how good he is. Ribeiro, who later became a super agent, Vega, Figo's agent, and Mendes, are all natives of Portuguese. They are able to make a name for themselves in Shijie football, not only because they have local Portuguese players, but also because they have South America, which is the production area of players. It's the best place to produce players, cheap and practical.

Rist is naturally not comparable to them, but Rist is not willing to give up the South American market. There is no shortage of geniuses and superstars in the South American market, and no super broker will turn a blind eye to such a market. In this case, Rist is willing to support local agents in Brazil, although in the future, when they have capital, they may get rid of Rist and become independent. But Rist doesn't care, because after all, South America is not Rist's lair, and it doesn't matter if he loses it in the future. As long as you have strength in European football, you can support other agents anytime and anywhere.

And Ricardo is an agent of Lister to see haode. Rist wants to find an agent to help him in Brazilian football, and that person is Ricardo.

"Lister, long time no see."

"Ricardo, why bother coming here in person. Just send a car. ”

Where does Ricardo now have the same embarrassment as he did when he first met Rist two years ago. At that time, Ricardo was a small agent who only had enough food and clothing for himself, but after two years, it was completely different. Although he is not a very powerful agent, he is more than enough to support himself. When I came to pick up Rist, I drove a small car and was dressed in a suit.

Ricardo knows his own business, and now he can be so decent because of Lister. Although there has been no big business for more than two years, there are still a lot of small businesses. It's all about some small Eastern European clubs introduced by Lister, and they just brought in a few Brazilian players. They are worth only about 200,000 or 300,000 dollars, but this kind of small business is already a very good business for Ricciardo.

Because in the past two years, Cardo's income has also been a lot, although it only adds up to 30,000 US dollars, but his life has been turned upside down. So Ricardo was very happy to meet Rister.

"Come, Ricardo, and introduce you. This is Coach Troussier, the head coach of the Mechelen club that I own in Belgium, but it is a famous French coach that I managed to invite. Whether you buy the player you recommend or not depends on what he means. If he has a crush on your player, I'll buy it, and if he doesn't, I can only say I'm sorry. ”

Rist came to Brazil with Troussier this time. It can be regarded as giving Trussier a big face. Mechelen had a mediocre performance last season, finishing only eleventh in the Belgian First Division as a strong team in the Belgian First Division. However, Rist did not blame Troussier at all, because there are too many young players at Mechelen. Trussier was able to relegate with these young players, and Rist was already very satisfied. So not only did he not blame, but Rist told Troussier that he would increase his investment. There are several players in the Mechelen club who have high hopes for Lister.

"Hello, Coach Troussier."

Seeing Riste's introduction in French, Ricardo immediately spoke in French. Although Ricardo is a native of Brazil, he has a good background. The family is considered to be the middle class in Brazil, and now he is going to be an agent, so he can also learn several foreign languages. Although I don't speak French well, I can understand it and be able to stumble over a few words.

"This is the agent who is going to introduce us to the player, Ricardo. Kanit. ”

"Hello, Mr. Kanit."

"You can just call me by name."

Ricardo was equally attentive to Troussier. Because he knows that whether he can make a big deal this time depends on the opinion of the head coach in front of him. Of course, for Lister he was a stammer.

"Ricardo, give us a brief introduction. Who are you going to introduce us to? What is it for? How strong is it? and so on. ”

Sitting in the car, Lister asked Ricardo. If it was normal, he should have given Rist a copy of the player profile first, and if Rister was interested, he would come over or send someone to investigate. But not this time, because Rist wants to be able to support an agent in Brazil, if not against Figer and Ribeiro, then become a big agent in Brazil.

"I've got four players to recommend to you this time. All four players are young and all São Paulo natives. I haven't played in the Brazilian Primera yet, but I'm still very good. I don't think it's possible for them to play in the top leagues in Europe, but it shouldn't be a problem to play in some of the smaller leagues. ”

Ricardo actually wanted to say that going to the Belgian league shouldn't be a problem. But after looking at Trussier next to him, he felt that saying this might make Trussier feel that he looked down on the Belgian league, so he temporarily said that it was a "small league".

"Okay, let's take a look." (To be continued......)
