Football: the history of the first ball

Xiao Jian asked: "Old Motou, what is the big happy event?"

The old Motou said excitedly: "After the game you played yesterday, my phone was immediately ringing. I worked overtime until 12 o'clock in the evening and was still on the phone.

I counted and found that there are 56 companies that want you to represent them. If you accept all of them according to their preliminary price, you will receive more than [-] million dollars in endorsement fees.

"So many? Even Xiao Jian was shocked now."

"I can't tell on the phone, can I report to your apartment?"

Xiao Jian said: "Come on, let's have breakfast together in a while."

"I've already had breakfast." The old Motou put down the phone and hurried over.

Half an hour later, the old Motou knocked on the door, Xiao Jian opened the door, and found that the old Motou seemed to be busy with work during this period, and his face was a little tired, but he was in good spirits.

Xiao Jian patted Lao Motou on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Old Motou, you have worked hard recently."

The old Motou smiled wryly and said: "You don't know that after the game yesterday, not only my phone was ringing, but the office was also almost packed. In the future, more and more companies will come to you to speak for you. I am I want to ask, how many endorsements have we received recently?"

Xiao Jian let him sit on the sofa in the small living room, poured him a glass of water and asked, "Which companies are there? What products do they make?"

The old Motou took out his notebook, and after quickly reading 56 companies and their main products, Xiao Jian laughed after hearing it.

Xiao Jian said: "Star endorsement, you can't just consider money. I think many of these companies just want to take advantage of my popularity. In fact, I don't fit their product positioning.

You see, even companies that produce underwear and underwear have come to my door. Does this fit my personality?Can I accept such an endorsement now?Old Motou, the endorsement must conform to my personality."

The old Motou was shocked, and he also wanted to tell Xiao Jian this suggestion, but he didn't expect that Xiao Jian was just a 17-year-old boy, and he was not dazzled by money, and his mind was very clear.

The old Motou nodded again and again and said: "Xiao Jian, you are right, so, for such a company, I will directly reply to their representatives and say that when the boss is interested, he will take the initiative to contact them. If he does not contact them, he should not come. So I They didn't even talk about it and asked them to go back. But now the problem is, how many product endorsements have you taken a fancy to."

"Do you have any idea?"

The old Motou said: "My idea is to accept a small amount of endorsements that fit your profile slowly. If you accept too many endorsements at once, according to the contract, it will take up a lot of your time to shoot commercials."

Xiao Jian nodded and said, "You're right, so it's better to take a few less endorsements first, and you can take Swiss Army Knife and Trail Blazers first. Because these two companies see that I like cycling, they can be linked to outdoor travel and survival.

I have used a swiss army knife and it works great.Pioneer mainly focuses on outdoor travel products, and it is a big brand of Bluestar International, which is more in line with my personality. "

The old Motou admired this young man more and more in his heart.Not only can he play football, he knows a lot.

Xiao Jian continued: "At the same time, you can also pick up Huaxia's young tea drinks. This is a healthy drink for young people, and I can endorse it. Well, there are also casual clothes for teenagers, and I can also talk to them. After leaving this village, there will be no such store. Old Motou, how much is their initial endorsement fee?

The old Motou has a good memory about the price, he said: "Swiss Army Knife and Blazers are both 400 million US dollars a year, young tea drinks are 2000 million Chinese dollars a year, and youth pie clothing is 2000 million Chinese dollars a year. "

Xiao Jian nodded and said, "Okay, you can talk to these company representatives first, and you can almost sign the contract. As for the others, take it easy."

He sighed in his heart, playing a game in the Premier League, the endorsement fee immediately skyrocketed by 7000% or even [-]%. After talking about these four endorsements and taking a few advertisements and photos, it is estimated that another [-] million Huaxia coins will arrive in the account. Alas, the star The money is so easy to earn.

The old Motou said: "There are 12 other league teams from various countries who want to negotiate your transfer fee, among which the highest weekly salary is Newcastle United, they offer a weekly salary of [-] pounds after tax, and Chelsea £[-] after tax."

"Damn, so much?" Xiao Jian was taken aback.

You know, the last time Chelsea offered him a 12-pound weekly salary for a young player, but now, after a Premier League game, Xiao Jian’s weekly salary has risen directly from [-] pounds to [-] pounds, which is a hundred-fold increase. up.

It seems that they no longer treat me as a juvenile player, but directly upgrade me to the treatment of an adult first-class star.

This week's salary is after tax. You know, the Premier League has a tax rate of 40.00%.For a young player, this salary is definitely the top salary in the world.

The weekly salary is 12 pounds, which is more than 600 million pounds a year. That is a full 6000 million Huaxia coins. After counting the signing fee, appearance fee, goal award, assist award, and winning award, it is directly more than 1 million Huaxia coins.

"What about Manchester City?"

The old Motou laughed and said: "They were in a hurry, the lion head manager was so anxious that he wanted to kill me once, he was going crazy because of my delay.

But now, he has lost his temper.Because he knew that the weekly salary and signing fee offered by other teams were higher than Manchester City, so Manchester City also offered a weekly salary of 500 pounds, and at the same time, there was a signing fee of [-] million pounds. "

Xiao Jian lamented that it was just a Premier League game, and the earthquake caused by all aspects was indeed too great, which directly caused my net worth to skyrocket.

The Premier League is indeed not comparable to the Youth League.

Xiao Jian poured a glass of water for the old Motou and said, "Okay, you can start the negotiation first, and those with lower bids don't need to be considered.

Negotiations can be discussed slowly for another three weeks, and three more league games will be played. I estimate that after the game with Manchester United, the new contract with Manchester City can be finalized.

Until then, is the time to truly reflect my worth.Also, remember, all of my contracts are after-tax, and I don't want to be like some players who get bad press because they don't pay taxes. "

The old Motou couldn't help admiring the 17-year-old boy, he found that his step-by-step plan was implemented accurately and solidly.

The old Motou said again: "Now your fans in all media have skyrocketed to 7000 million. The company has already had professionals to maintain your various self-media platforms at your request. Now the number of fans you attract is soaring every day.

Nowadays, many companies want to advertise on your various self-media platforms. If each platform advertises three times a month, according to the current market situation, it is expected to receive tens of millions of pounds in advertising fees a year. . "

Xiao Jian nodded and said: "Yes, companies with good quality and excellent products must advertise at most three times a month, no more.

Money can never be earned, so we must take a long-term view, and don't ignore product quality just because of making money, and destroy the Great Wall.All advertised products must be reviewed by the company, and then I agree. "

The old Motou asked a few more questions, and then left with satisfaction.

Before Xiao Jian sent the old Motou out, he shook hands with him and said, "I am very satisfied with your work. I will call the accountant in a while. Starting from this month, I will increase your salary by 20.00%."

The old Motou's eyes lit up, he held Xiao Jian's hand tightly and said, "Thank you boss."

At this moment, in his eyes, Xiao Jian is no longer a young football star, he is already the boss he is willing to work for.

After sending away the old Motou, Xiao Jian suddenly found himself a little dizzy, and then his stomach suddenly twitched.
