Football giants

Chapter 411 It's too profitable!

A Lagonda Conqueror quickly went north along the central road of the Spanish capital Madrid, and slowly stopped at the Bernabéu Stadium.

Passing the security booth, the Conquistador drove into the administrative car park of the Bernabéu.

As soon as the car stopped, Sun Yue and the other three assistants got out of the car.

Looking up, the Bernabéu stadium looks very magnificent.

The appearance is a bit old, but I don’t know if it’s because of the mood, but it always makes people feel the solemnity of a pilgrimage to the football hall.

"What a place!" Sun Yue said in amazement.

Today's Real Madrid can be described as a strong army, with not only superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, but also a super coach like Mourinho, plus a long-sleeved dancer who is good at business operations Florentino.

This Real Madrid team is definitely the most watched star team in football today!

In the field of football business operations, it is an example for countless teams to learn from!

At least, Master Huan mentioned his appreciation and admiration for Real Madrid more than once.

Except for grades, of course!

In Master Huan's philosophy, business and achievement should go hand in hand, that is the kingly way!

In today's society, the era of making a fortune in silence is long gone, and the age of wine is not afraid of the depths of the alleys.

"Hello, Mr. Sun!"

A Spanish middle-aged man stepped out of the gate of the administrative office of the Bernabéu stadium.

Sun Yue is a veteran fan, and he recognized it at a glance. Isn't this the Real Madrid football star, Butragueno the Vulture?

Oh, by the way, he is now the core executive of Real Madrid, Florentino's favorite general!

"Hello, Mr. Butragueno!" Sun Yue immediately greeted him.

After the two shook hands, Sun Yue introduced his colleagues and walked into the Bernabéu stadium.

Real Madrid's administrative office is at the Bernabéu Stadium, but Butragueno took them to a conference room on the second floor, where Real Madrid's CEO Jose Angel Sanchez was already waiting there.

"Hello, Mr. Sanchez!"

"Hello, Mr. Sun!"

When we met, it was inevitable to exchange polite greetings.

It is not the first time that Miracle Media has contacted Real Madrid. Sun Yue has been here several times before, but the negotiations have not made much progress.

Real Madrid has always been very wary of the International Champions Cup that Miracle Media wants to create.

But that's right, after all, this is the first time that Miracle Media has organized such a major event, and we don't know how long it will last. Who would offend their long-term partners and participate in such an event?

"Mr. Sanchez, I don't know what attitude does Real Madrid have towards the invitation we mentioned last time to participate in the International Champions Cup?" Sun Yue asked politely.

Sanchez and Butragueno looked at each other. They knew for a long time that the purpose of Sun Yue's trip must still be to continue to fight for Real Madrid to participate in their International Champions Cup.

"Sorry, Mr. Sun, we are indeed going to the United States again this summer, but our first consideration is to participate in the third North American Invitational Tournament."

After finishing speaking, Sanchez added another sentence.

"You know, we have had nearly 20 years of pleasant cooperation experience with RS Company. Although we are also willing to participate in your company's International Champions Cup, but we really have no skills at all. I can only say sorry to you."

Sun Yue was not surprised by the answer, he just smiled and waved to the assistant beside him.

The assistant immediately sent over a report, Sun Yue opened it to read it, and handed it over from the desk.

"This is a venue rental contract. In order to show our sincerity, we have rented competition venues and training venues in cities such as Miami, New York, Los Angeles and Ann Arbor for the exclusive use of eight giant teams in North America."

Sanchez was a little surprised.

This is too rich and powerful, right?

The team hasn't been found yet, so they rented the stadium and training ground first?

What if the participating teams cannot be found by then?
Wouldn't all the upfront investment be lost?

"This is a schedule carefully prepared by our company. The eight teams are divided into two groups. Each team will play three group matches. The ranking will be based on the results. The teams with the same ranking in the two groups will then be arranged for the final."

Sanchez and Butragueno looked at each other again, full of surprise.

When I took a look, I was even more surprised.

This is not a simple schedule, but a schedule that is finally made after fully considering the needs of the giants' summer preparations and training camps, and after fully considering various factors such as preparation time and location.

Give the simplest example.

Real Madrid has participated in the North American Invitational Tournament established by RS Company for three consecutive summers, but they often run to the West Coast non-stop after playing a game on the East Coast, and have to play another game before they can take a good rest.

Such an intensive and seriously unreasonable schedule, for Real Madrid, let alone summer training, even the effect of training is lackluster, and may cause many players to be injured for no reason.

But Miracle Media's schedule obviously has considerations for the team's preparations, and they try their best in every aspect.

Not much else to say, just focusing on this meticulousness is enough to prove that Miracle Media has made great efforts to prepare, and at the same time has enough ability to successfully host this event.

Sun Yue has been paying attention to the expressions of Sanchez and Butragueno, and it can be seen that the effect is still good.

At the very least, these preparations are enough to prove that Miracle Media is definitely not a whim, but has been fully prepared.

"Mr. Sanchez, we can understand Real Madrid's concerns, but please don't doubt our determination!"

Having said that, Sun Yue took another document from his assistant and sent it to Sanchez again.

Sanchez looked at Sun Yue, hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the file.

This is a commercial competition contract!

When Sanchez was in charge of Real Madrid, he did not know how many such contracts he signed, including English, Japanese, Chinese, and Arabic. He has signed almost all commercial competition contracts around the world.

But this time, he still couldn't help being surprised.

"300 million euros?" Sanchez looked up at Sun Yue in disbelief.

Sun Yue smiled and nodded in affirmation.

But there was a huge wave in the Spaniard's heart.

You know, Real Madrid's appearance fee is about 200 million euros, and the higher one is 250 million euros, but that is basically a single game.

For an event like the International Champions Cup, which plays four games in a row and at the same time can help Real Madrid develop the commercial market, the appearance fee offered by Real Madrid is generally 200 million euros.

But Miracle Media offered 300 million euros in one go!
This is a sky-high price that has never been seen in the most star-studded period of the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship!

Under the condition that other conditions are not inferior to RS company, and they are even better than RS company in many aspects, the appearance fee is a full 100 million euros more. How can this make people not tempted?
After four games, he earned 1000 to [-] million euros in one summer!

It's so easy to earn, is there any?

But looking down, Sanchez was even more shocked.

Miracle Media actually wants to sign five Champions Cups in one go?

On the surface, Sun Yue was calm, but in fact he was happy with Sanchez's reaction in his heart.

Yang Huan meant to sign for five years at one go, but Sun Yue and the team felt that it was not appropriate to sign for five years after full consideration, because no one could guarantee that they would be able to participate every summer in the next five years.

So it was decided to make a change, and changed it to sign for five sessions, and Miracle Media invited them to participate in advance.

In this way, Miracle Media has the initiative, and the signed wealthy teams will not be restricted to death.

After a burst of surprise, Sanchez quickly regained his composure.

"Mr. Sun, I don't know if you can disclose, how many teams have you signed so far?"

Sun Yue smiled faintly and nodded, "Bayern Munich in Bundesliga, Juventus in Serie A, Arsenal and Southampton in Premier League!"

Sanchez was taken aback, Southampton?

But I soon thought of a deeper level. I heard that the Saints are quite influential among the younger generation of fans in the United States.

Moreover, the Saints are full of stars, and they are the Europa League champions, so they are barely qualified to be invited.

At the very least, they are much stronger than those invited by the North American Invitational, the teams from the American Major League, Brazil and the Mexican League.

Of course, there must be suspicion of taking care of one's own people here.

Seeing Sanchez's tempted appearance, Sun Yue felt amused.

Although Bayern Munich is the winner of the Champions League this season, it was the first to sign the contract, and Bayern Munich's appearance fee is only the second tier, which is 250 million euros for a single game.

This is not because the Bundesliga team is pragmatic, but because Bayern Munich has been jealous of Real Madrid and Barcelona and other teams going to the United States to make money in the past few years.

So, when Southampton invited, they were immediately tempted.

Juventus' appearance fee is also the second tier. There is no way, who made Serie A decline in recent years?
Originally, the priority of Serie A was AC Milan, but the asking price of the Rossoneri was too high, and the results in Serie A in recent years were not satisfactory. In addition, the conditions of Juventus were lower, which was relatively cheap.

Therefore, after Sun Yue consulted Yang Huan, he finally decided to switch to Juventus.

In terms of the halo of the giants, Juventus will not lose to AC Milan!

As for Arsenal, the Gunners had never participated in the North American Invitational before. Once they received the invitation and saw how generous the appearance fee was, they immediately agreed without hesitation.

The Gunners can only get the appearance fee of the second gear.

Sun Yue's negotiating order is particular. First settle a few easy teams to lay a foundation, and then plan for top giants like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United.

There is no doubt that these three teams will be the first team to play.

At the same time, they are also the most marketable European giants in the United States.

Whether they can be signed will determine the success or failure of the International Champions Cup!

Now it seems that Real Madrid is tempted!

The appearance fee is so generous, the opponents in the cup match are equally strong, and the schedule is so well designed, they really can't think of a reason to refuse.

As for the more than ten years of friendship with RS company...

Well, under the same conditions, we will give priority to friendship.

But the problem is that the conditions are seriously unequal now!
In this case, a fool would refuse such a generous offer for the sake of friendship!

There was a moment of silence in the conference room, Sanchez hesitated for a while, then stood up suddenly.

"Excuse me, I'll go out for a while!"

"Please!" Sun Yue knew what was going on.

After Sanchez left, everyone in the conference room had nothing to talk about, they could only wait.

Fortunately, the waiting time was not long, only about 10 minutes, and Sanchez came back.

It's just that he came with the chairman of Real Madrid, Florentino Perez.

"Oh hello, great to meet you, Mr. Perez!"

Florentino smiled and shook hands with Sun Yue, "It's very nice to meet you, Mr. Sun."

"Please convey my greetings to Mr. Yang Huan. At the same time, we, Real Madrid, have decided to participate in the International Champions Cup organized by you!"

"Okay, I will definitely bring the words!"

Florentino Perez signaled to Sanchez that the contract can be negotiated.

That is, when Sanchez and the legal counsel brought by Sun Yue were negotiating some contract terms, Florentino asked Sun Yue about Southampton players with great interest.
