Athletics: I, the King of Sprinting

morning.

Yang Zhuo had just finished his meal and was about to pack up and go to Rome.

The lobby on the first floor of the hotel.

Yang Zhuo and Li Qing came down first, waiting for Liu Xiang and the others.

At this time.

A man with silver-white hair, a little bald, and wearing glasses walked over.

"Yang, hello, can I have a few minutes to talk to you?"

Li Qing didn't understand English, so he asked suspiciously, "Xiao Zhuo, what does he do?"

"I don't know, let me talk to him first."

So the two came to sit down on the sofa in the lounge area of ​​the lobby.

After a brief introduction, Yang Zhuo knew who he was.

Jose Helmens.

A world-renowned sports agent who founded the world's largest track and field agency. 363

He is also the manager of middle-distance running superstar Gebresil Rassier.

The purpose of Hermens coming here this time is self-evident, he wants to be Yang Zhuo's manager.

"Mr. Helmens, don't you know that the management affairs of our country's track and field athletes are in charge of the track and field management center?"

"Is this testing me?"

A smile appeared on Hermens's face: "Of course I know, because I tried to be Liu Xiang's agent before, but you are different from Liu Xiang. I went to Huaxia after the Ollie Road race, After understanding your situation, the dominance of your brokerage affairs is in your own hands."

Hearing this, Yang Zhuo was surprised.

It seems that the old man really put in a lot of effort.

He even went to Huaxia to investigate.

"Yang, to be honest, you have great potential. I want to be your agent for the purpose of making money, but I can assure you that I am a very responsible person and can help you handle all the problems of going abroad. Matters, including training, accommodation and food, and awards, and the development of your business value."

Yang Zhuo nodded calmly, this Hermons is quite honest.

Moreover, as the head of the world's largest track and field brokerage company, he actually ran over to see him in person.

This is rare.

It can also be seen that Hermens attaches great importance to him.

However, Yang Zhuo couldn't just agree so casually.

Broker is a very important position.

It is related to the development of his commercial value in the future.

Don't be hasty.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhuo said: "Thank you very much for coming, but you should understand that choosing an agent is a very important matter, and I need a period of time to think about it."

"Of course, of course I know, it will take you some time to get to know me."

With that said, Hermons took out a business card from his bag: "This is my phone number, waiting for your message anytime."

Yang Zhuo didn't have a business card, but he also left his cell phone number.

"Yang, I look forward to your more exciting performance in Rome!"

"Thank you!"

After Hermens left, Li Qing stepped forward and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Coach, have you heard of a name, Joss Helmens?"

"Hermons?"

Li Qing was taken aback for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Hellmens, the world-renowned track and field manager and the head of the International Federation of Track and Field Managers? Is that the old man just now?"

"Well, he said he wanted to be my agent, so he came here to see us."

Yang Zhuo's tone was calm, but Li Qing seemed a little excited.

"Xiao Zhuo, having Hermens come and visit in person is enough proof of your great potential."

"It's not that exaggerated. It's mainly because we value our Chinese market."

Just like Dayao back then.

When he first participated in the NBA draft, many agents hoped to cooperate with him.

The reason is simple, there is a huge market with more than one billion people behind Dayao.

of course.

Hermens came to find Yang Zhuo not only because he had a market behind him, but also because he had super talent in sprinting.

For athletes, there is nothing without results.

When standing in Oslo, Hermens found Yang Zhuo by chance, and then ran to Huaxia excitedly.

Originally, he wanted to negotiate with the field management center to see if he could be Yang Zhuo's manager.

They are all ready for bigger concessions.

It turns out that Yang Zhuo is free after he understands it.

Hermens was ecstatic at that time, so after some investigation, he ran to Paris to recommend himself.

hotel.

hall.

While Yang Zhuo and Li Qing were talking, Liu Xiang, Sun Haiping, Huang Qiuyan and his coach also came down.

Liu Xiang greeted with a smile: "Director Li, Yang Zhuo, what are you two talking about?"

Li Qing responded slightly excitedly: "Of course it's a good thing. Just now Hermens came and said he wanted to be Yang Zhuo's manager."

"Hermons? In person?"

Liu Xiang was very surprised.

He knew about Helmens, because Helmens once wanted to be his agent, and he went to the field management center to negotiate with the leaders, but in the end it failed.

Because the Athletics Association does not allow athletes to have their own agents, all affairs must be handled by an intermediary company that cooperates with the Athletics Association.

"Yeah, just left."

Li Qing smiled all over his face.

As a coach, the better Yang Zhuo develops, the more benefits he can reap.

After listening, Liu Xiang showed a look of envy: "Yang Zhuo, Hermens is very good, and he has a very good reputation in the track and field circle, and he has a very strong energy in the field of world track and field, let him be the agent , there are many benefits."

Yang Zhuo nodded: "No hurry, I will think about it slowly."

"Well, let's go then."

On the way to Rome, Yang Zhuo was thinking about his manager.

Because high-level track and field events are generally held abroad, Yang Zhuo will fly around the world all year round in the future.

Therefore, there is a great need for well-connected and energetic brokers in the circle, which can bring a lot of convenience.

Not to mention anything else, just talk about going abroad to compete.

If Hermens is Yang Zhuo's manager, then his basic necessities of life in the Golden League this time will be well arranged.

Especially the training venues, with Helmens' contacts and influence in the world track and field field, it is easy to rent or borrow high-standard track and field venues.

This is very important for athletes.

There is also the need to deal with the relationship with foreign media, which also requires ability and connections.

To be honest, Hermons is a very good choice.

But what about Yang Zhuo's management business in China?

Hermons may not be very good at it.

The national conditions are different.

Although Hermens knows China well, it is still not as easy as a local agent in China.

Yang Zhuo felt that he also needed two agents.

Foreign agents must be professionals in the field of track and field, while domestic agents mainly focus on domestic affairs, such as publicity, crisis public relations, and business negotiations.

In addition, the broker can also help him deal with some investment matters.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhuo heaved a sigh of relief.

Now that someone has noticed him, it means that his team must be established as soon as possible.

Just like Dayao's Yao team.

Chapter 81

7 month 11 day.

morning.

After many people turn on the sports channel, they find that there are games to watch.

"Friends from the audience, friends from the audience, this is the CCTV Sports Channel, welcome to watch the IAAF Golden League match in Rome, I am the commentator Yang~Jian..."

The TV screen was given to the scene of the game in Rome.

This is not a live broadcast, but a rebroadcasted video with Yang Jian's commentary.

The Golden League started in the early hours of Beijing time, and the timing was not very good. Most importantly, the game was not well-known in China.

Neither Yang Zhuo nor Liu Xiang has the strength to win the championship.

So CCTV did not broadcast live.
