01617 Sponsorship

"Chen, when are you free, come to school. ”

"Yes, I'm free today, I'll go over in the afternoon. ”

Chen Cao faintly heard that Wright's tone seemed to be looking for him.

In the afternoon, Chen Cao entrusted the children to Fali and then ran off to the University of Los Angeles.

Chen Cao has not been to school for a long time, and since the birth of little Larissa, most of Chen Cao's thoughts have been on little Larissa.

When he arrived at the school, Chen Cao saw an acquaintance from a distance.

"Collan, why are you here? You're a student here?"

"Mr. Chen, why did you come here? You can't be looking for me, are you?"

Chen Cao rolled his eyes: "I'm a professor at the University of Los Angeles, why do you say I'm here." ”

"What?" Colan was stunned, he really didn't expect that Chen Cao was actually a professor at the University of Los Angeles.

"Okay, let's stop talking, I still have something. ”

I can't say how deep the friendship between Chen Cao and Kelan is.

But since Coran got used to being abused by Chen Cao.

He found that he seemed to have a little bit of enjoyment of the process.

Of course, the main thing is that Chen Cao can teach him something.

Although the process can be painful.

But every time after the end of the sparring work.

Chen Cao will also treat him.

Chen Cao finds Wright's office.

Wright saw Chen Cao coming, lifted his glasses, and looked at Chen Cao with an unhappy expression.

"Honey, you don't seem to want to see me. ”

"Tell me, how long has it been since you've been to school?"

"I've ......been busy lately," Chen Cao didn't bother to find a connection, sat down at Wright's desk, picked up the apple on the table and nibbled on it.

"Do you know how much pressure I put on to keep your professorship?"

"Forehead ......"

Most of the university professors in the United States are permanent.

Of course, that is, if you don't leave your job.

Chen Cao doesn't necessarily come to school once a month, and starts two or three classes in half a year.

It did take a lot of effort for Wright to keep Chen Cao's title.

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, let's get straight to the point, I called you this time to ask for your help. ”

"Say, what can I do, it is absolutely incumbent. ”

"Ask for money. Wright said bluntly.

"How much?" Chen Cao suddenly hesitated.

It's not that he can't afford to give money, it's not that he doesn't want to give it to Wright.

But it's one thing to give Wright, it's another thing to give to the school.

Chen Cao's affection for this school is far less than his personal relationship with Wright.

If Wright is personally short of money, or where is the money urgently needed.

Chen Cao didn't even ask how much money he needed, and wrote a check directly.

But Wright certainly didn't ask for money personally.

She was able to open her mouth to herself, most likely because the school needed money.

"The school does not have a lot of money this year, especially for the sports club. Wright said: "Half of the students in the school are members of the sports club, and there are more than 2,000 students who are interested in developing sports, but the funds allocated to the sports club are only one million dollars. ”

Chen Cao has also done some sports-related things before.

For example, Tiger's training and participating in competitions.

Chen Cao paid out of his pocket, and Chen Cao was very aware of the cost of cultivating a sports student.

Of course, it is impossible for a school to support every student to be trained as a professional athlete.

If every student who has the heart to develop in the sports circle is as dedicated to training as a professional athlete.

The University of Los Angeles is not enough to spend even if it is gold.

But even so, with the huge number of sports students.

The cost of equipment, competitions, and training is still not a small amount.

For example, a basketball game and a game at another school.

In the city, a basketball team costs around a thousand dollars.

If it's a downtown, it's going to cost at least $5,000.

There are also other sports-specific students.

"How big is the gap?" Chen Cao asked.

"The next funding won't come until at least March next year, and there's still half a year to go until March next year, so if you need to have enough money for sports students, you need at least $1.5 million. Wright's eyes were pleading.

Chen Cao pursed his lips: "What benefits can I get?"

"What good do you want?" Wright was not the kind of person who didn't know what to do.

Pulling sponsorship is a success, and it is impossible to affect personal feelings if it is not successful.

Charity or sponsorship of public welfare undertakings will never be sustainable if they cannot generate benefits.

This is very common in European and American countries, and no one's money is blown by the wind.

The attitude of European and American countries towards public welfare is exactly in response to the Chinese saying, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish.

This is why public welfare funds in Europe and the United States are for-profit.

Therefore, if Chen Cao puts forward his own demands, as long as it is reasonable, Wright will not be able to refuse.

If you just ask Chen Cao to donate, Chen Cao can donate for one or two years.

But Chen Cao couldn't afford to spend one or two million dollars a year to donate to a place that was of no benefit to him.

"I can sponsor the University of Los Angeles Athletic Club for $2 million a year, but I require that all competitions held at the University of Los Angeles every year have a clear logo of Dashan Beer, and that all students of the University of Los Angeles Athletic Club must have the logo of Dashan Beer on their uniforms when they go out of school to participate in any competition. ”

"Two million dollars is not enough, at least five million dollars. Wright raised the price: "Do you know how many competitions our students participate in each year and how many times they compete? More than 10,000 times, if you follow the price of two million dollars, it is equivalent to sponsoring two hundred dollars for one competition." ”

Chen Cao shook his head: "Five million dollars is too high, and I don't think the sports club uses so much money." ”

"Four million dollars, it can't be lower. ”

"Three million dollars. Chen Cao said.

This is not a real business negotiation.

Their conversation involves too much personal feelings.

While they are fighting for their own interests, they cannot attack each other as they do at the real negotiating table.

If there is really going to be a business negotiation, then it is not Chen Cao who is here to negotiate.

It's the legal teams of both sides that negotiate.

"Three and a half million dollars, I ask for a three-year sponsorship and a lump sum payment. "I want to build another gymnasium," Wright said. ”

"Okay. Chen Cao shrugged: "I'll notify the lawyer to come and sign a contract with you tomorrow." ”

"By the way, do you have any coupon there, lately Dashan beer has been too hard to buy, and it has been sold out every time it hits the shelves. Wright said depressedly.

Don't look at her as an old woman in her nineties, she is a veritable drunkard.

"No, there are no promotions at the moment. Chen Cao rolled his eyes: "And do you still think you are young, you are so old, and you still drink every day, wait for me to check your physical condition." ”
