Football giants

Chapter 462 It's Only Him!

Don Blaustein was also very depressed.

It never occurred to him that football and music can be played like this!
The prosperity of the International Champions Cup was beyond his expectation, because this event was only held for the first time.

However, Yang Huan and Miracle Media surprisingly integrated football and music. From the beginning of the lottery grouping ceremony, they kept hyping up this event. Later, they even arranged for Uncle Psy and Lin Yuner to sing new songs at the game.

These two superstars have been popular in the United States and the world for two years, and they have countless fans.

Don Blaustein knew he was wrong as soon as the box office for the first game of the International Champions Cup came out!
But he never thought that his mistake would be so big.

Miracle Media has now sold the audio copyright of the third generation of Divine Comedy, and then sold the Internet video copyright, and then began to sell the TV station copyright, and now it is going to release DVDs, and then Uncle Psy and Lin Yuner will start a global tour concert.

Be good, I know that Miracle Media is powerful in operation, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful.

Damn it, now you simply regard the Divine Comedy as a golden signboard, just like a money printing machine.

Don Blaustein was depressed. If he knew what would happen, he would have negotiated the contract no matter what.

But now, it's too late to regret.

People are now as good as Budweiser beer!

Thinking of this, Don Blaustein was also very helpless. Didn't he and Yang Huan and Miracle Media also have a good relationship?

But now?

There are no father and son in the mall, no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests!

Van Boxmeyer looked at the depressed Don Blaustein in front of him, and the anger in his heart gradually dissipated.

In the final analysis, this is the favorite general whom I personally picked up. If he made a mistake, it means that he made a mistake.

The most important thing now is not to pursue responsibility, but to quickly find a way to make up for it!
"Tell me, what are you going to do?" Van Boxmeyer sat back on the boss chair and asked.

Don Blaustein thought for a while, "In the past month or so, Budweiser's performance has grown by leaps and bounds. Obviously, the International Champions Cup, Uncle Psy, and Yuner Lin have helped a lot. We plan to launch a series of promotional activities as soon as possible..."

Just halfway through speaking, Van Boxmeyer waved his hand immediately, not letting him continue.

"You still missed the point!"

Don Blaustein was stunned. What's the point?
"We have already lost half of this battle. If we don't want to lose the other half, then we must quickly find a way to stabilize our market, especially the European market!"

Before Don Blaustein could speak, Van Boxmeyer spoke up himself.

"Now you go to England immediately, and do two things!"

Don Blaustein nodded immediately, no matter what it was, he agreed first before talking.

"First, go to Mr. Sun of Miracle Media and talk to him directly. We want to sponsor the European Youth Champions League organized by them. I know that Budweiser and Carlsberg are also discussing this sponsorship with them recently. We must grab it!"

Heineken has always sponsored the UEFA Champions League, and now sponsoring the UEFA Youth League will undoubtedly form a synergy effect, especially considering that this is an event authorized by both UEFA and FIFA.

According to the tournament arrangement disclosed by Miracle Media, among the 32 participating teams, priority will be given to the 32 teams in the UEFA Champions League group stage. Once a team chooses to withdraw from the tournament, other teams will be invited to participate.

The game schedule is held the day before each group match. Sky TV has made it clear that it will broadcast this event live in Europe, which undoubtedly reassures many sponsors.

Don Blaustein nodded heavily, this matter is not difficult to handle.

"Second, you go to Southampton's Peter Kenyon, and you tell him that we are going to re-sign a contract with Southampton, the longer the better, even the sponsorship fee can be higher, but this time we become Saints' senior partners!"

Southampton's sponsorship system has obvious level restrictions.

The top is the main sponsor, there are only two, one is the jersey and the other is the chest advertisement.

After the main sponsor, there are senior partners, and after that are official partners.

But then there are the regional partners, and the specific partners.

Nike, for example, has become one of the special partners because it sponsors the training center in Southampton.

According to Southampton's official explanation, every time a sponsor goes up to a higher level, the authority will increase. The specific authority depends on negotiation, and each sponsor is different. For example, the newly signed MetLife Insurance Company directly signed an exclusivity clause.

In other words, Southampton will no longer be able to accept the sponsorship of any insurance company, and the insurance of the players in the team must also pass through Metropolitan Life Insurance.

"Mr. Van Boxmeyer, they have high requirements for senior partners now, and they have recently heard that they are talking with Budweiser and Coca-Cola. In addition, they have been in contact with Cadbury in the UK. The latter intends to become Southampton's senior partner in snacks and beverages."

"I know!" Van Boxmeyer nodded, "So we mainly talk about high-level partners in the beer category. Budweiser can't let Budweiser take advantage of it and poach our corner!"

Just kidding, Budweiser has finally disappeared from the list of sponsors of the top European teams. How can they easily return to European football through Southampton?

Today, all the teams in the world are optimistic about Southampton, thinking that this team will become a big player.

Of course, Heineken is going to try its best to win it!

Seeing that Don Blaustein was worried, Van Boxmeyer nodded slightly, "Okay, you can decide on the price, this contract, but we must win this contract!"

Don Blaustein nodded immediately when he heard the CEO speak so eloquently.

"I understand!"

"Well, Huang Ying, I like going shopping with you the most!"

In London's Harrods shopping mall, a blue-eyed blonde British girl affectionately held Huang Ying's hand and said with a smile.

"Why?" Huang Ying asked with a smile.

"It's very simple. You have a super VIP gold card from Harrods. You can get a [-]% discount on shopping. It's super cost-effective to buy things. Also, you will invite me to Wangjiang Pavilion for dinner!"

After hearing this, Huang Ying couldn't help but burst out laughing, but secretly shook her head in her heart.

The other party was my colleague at Foster + Partners, and the relationship between the two was not bad, especially when the other party knew that he had a super VIP gold card for the legendary Harrods mall, the relationship obviously improved by leaps and bounds.

Speaking of this super VIP gold card that is said to be able to get a [-]% discount, and can even buy things at Harrods without paying...

The image of Yang Huan involuntarily appeared in Huang Ying's mind, and her heart felt warm, as she hadn't seen him for several days.

How are you?
In fact, there is no need to ask, it must be very good.

The International Champions Cup became popular, as did Uncle Psy and Yoona Lin's third-generation Divine Comedy, and Southampton became even more popular.

Can you please?

Although Foster + Partners has too many things to do these days, Huang Ying still takes time to pay attention to Yang Huan every day, secretly check his WeChat, or search for his news on the Internet.

That feeling is also very good, and he doesn't know it yet!
"Let's go, treat you to dinner!"

"Yeah, long live!"

The two walked into Wangjiang Pavilion in Harrods one after the other.

As soon as they entered the door, the two heard someone playing the piano in the restaurant.

The first time I heard it, I didn't feel anything.

Listen again, and you will hear it.

Isn't it the tender version of "Little Apple" in Lin Yuner's new album that touched countless people?

At the corner of the restaurant, I saw a long-haired middle-aged man in his 40s flicking a small apple.

The people dining in the restaurant were listening to him playing the piano while eating.

Needless to say, he played pretty well.

"Miss Huang, here we come!" The waiters in the restaurant knew her and immediately greeted her politely.

There are very few gold cards in Wangjiang Pavilion, and they are all given out by Master Huan.

Therefore, the waiters in Wangjiang Pavilion basically recognize every guest who shows up with a gold card, especially when the other party is a beautiful woman, the impression is even more profound.

For example, Miss Zhuangzi Qingzhuang, who was shockingly beautiful in the past, has now become the fiancee of Young Master Huan.

And there is the daughter of Huang Tianshun, the general manager of the Wangjiangge restaurant chain, Miss Huang.

Huang Ying entered the store, walked towards the VIP area, but pointed to the corner where the piano was played, "Why did you invite someone to play the piano now?"

When the waiter heard this, he immediately grinned, shook his head and said, "No, Miss Huang, that person came by himself, and he also brought the piano. I heard that he is a well-known pianist."

"Then why did he come here? Still playing the little apple!"

An old man in his 40s is playing a small apple. Isn't this picture a bit too outrageous?

In the words of Master Huan, the picture is too beautiful, I dare not look at it!

The waiter laughed and said, "Who knows? He said he is a die-hard fan of Ms. Lin Yuner, and he really likes her song Little Apple. He knew that Ms. Lin liked to come to our store for dinner when he was in London, so he moved the piano here to play."

Speaking of this, the waiter smiled cheerfully, "This guy is also a weirdo, he only plays Miss Lin's songs, and sometimes he can't help singing, but this guy's singing is really unflattering."

When Huang Ying heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing again.

It seems that he is really a diehard fan!
Lin Yuner is indeed beautiful, just like a fairy in the sky, no wonder so many men like it.

But Huang Ying knew better than anyone else that there was only one person in Lin Yuner's heart.

That is Master Huan!

She knew this long before Lin Yun'er became famous.

At least Lin Yun'er looked at Master Huan with affectionate eyes, even a blind person could see it.

Master Huan must also like her very much, otherwise why would he do so many things for her?
Thinking about it, Huang Ying couldn't help feeling a little envious of Lin Yuner.

She was even thinking, if Master Huan would do so many things for me, even if I had to die for him, I would be willing!

But as soon as I thought of this, my thoughts stopped.

There was a burst of applause in the restaurant.

The man finished playing "Little Apple" and received applause from everyone.

Huang Ying also smiled slightly, greeted her female colleague, found a place to sit down, and began to order food.

Just after ordering food, the phone rang.

Huang Ying took out her mobile phone and saw that it was her teacher Norman Foster.

Today is not a working day, why are you calling at this time?
Huang Ying was puzzled, but still picked it up.

"Hi, Norman!"

"Huang Ying, the Qatar World Cup Organizing Committee appreciates your new stadium design for Southampton very much, and intends to invite you to design a main stadium dedicated to the opening ceremony and final of the World Cup, as well as a World Cup commemorative building."

"Me?" Huang Ying was taken aback when she heard the news, and couldn't believe it.

Southampton's new stadium design, I am just an assistant, how could I be invited?
"Yes, someone should have recommended you to them!" Norman Foster said with a smile.

It can be seen that he is quite satisfied with the performance and progress of this female apprentice.

"I believe that you can do it!"

But Huang Ying obviously couldn't hear what he said.

She is very clear that all the well-known big-name architectural designers in the world are vying for the order of the World Cup in Qatar. Whoever gets it will definitely become famous, even world-famous.

But why me?

Who recommended me to them?
Huang Ying immediately thought of someone.

It must be him!

It will only be him!
