All-round Athlete

Chapter 90

After Zhang Guan returned to the capital, he immediately received a call from He Yiming. People from Fidelity Investment Company arrived in the capital a day earlier than him, and brought all the authorization and legal documents.

Zhang Guan signed the relevant documents at He Yiming's place, and also signed the relevant authorization documents of the champion team. From this moment on, Zhang Guan's agent team, the champion team, has been legally recognized.

Then he returned to the Temple of Heaven apartment. The Olympic champion team will be officially disbanded starting tomorrow, and the athletes are starting to go home, and Zhang Guan is also going to go home to see his parents.

But to Zhang Guan's surprise, another person came from the field management center, and the person who came this time was an acquaintance. It was Director Sun, Manager Wang and Lawyer Zhu of Naike Company.

From the moment he saw Manager Wang, Zhang Guan guessed their purpose. If it was a few days ago, he might still feel very passive, but now that the legal documents of the championship team have officially come into force, Zhang Guan can be said to be confident.

Director Sun's attitude was similar to last time, still a few pages of A4 paper, still handing it directly to Zhang Guan, still without any explanation, or asking Zhang Guan to sign directly. The content of the A4 paper is the same as last time, it is a power of attorney.

Zhang Guan put down the A4 paper and said, "I'm afraid I can't sign this."

"Why? You're eighteen years old, you're an adult." Director Sun's face was gloomy as if it had turned into a haze.

"I have formed a dedicated brokerage team to be responsible for my business development." Zhang Guan paused, then continued: "The relevant legal documents have been completed."

"What? Why don't we know?" Director Sun scolded angrily.

"The preparations for the establishment started a few days ago, and all the legal documents were signed just a few hours ago." Zhang Guan thought for a while, and added: "It is legal to have a lawyer present."

"No, you can't do this!" Director Sun continued to yell, "You can't do this without the approval of the leaders of the center. This is a violation of discipline!"

Zhang Guan had prepared his speech a long time ago, and he said: "The "Notice on the Management of Athletes Engaging in Advertising Business Activities" stipulates that active athletes can conduct advertising and other business activities as long as they are approved by the organization. My team has I have prepared the application form, and it may have been sent to the General Administration by now. And I haven’t carried out any advertising activities yet, I just found a broker team, which is not a violation.”

"How can you do this! There is no organization and discipline. You should report this kind of thing to the center first, and you shouldn't go to the General Administration." Director Sun seemed a little annoyed.

Zhang Guan shrugged his shoulders: "I followed the normal procedure. Moreover, the General Administration has also stipulated that a part of athletes' bonuses, advertisements and other income should be used as the association reward fund and the national sports fund. I will definitely make a lot of money in this regard. Handed in. I believe everything is done according to the regulations, and things are handled according to the law, and things are handled according to the rules.”

"You...you..." Director Sun stomped his feet angrily, "I'll go back and report to the leader now!"

After Director Sun finished speaking, he turned and left. Manager Wang and Lawyer Zhu looked at each other, looking more and more at a loss, but both of them knew that this time it was for nothing again.

The most depressing thing is Manager Wang. If he knew that Zhang Guan already had a management team, he wouldn’t have to work hard to find a relationship in the field management center. Think about how he pretended to be a grandson in order to get this endorsement two days ago. I think he is more wronged than Dou E!

...

The "Notice on the Management of Athletes Engaged in Advertising Business Activities" stipulated that it was issued by the National Sports Commission, and now the Sports Commission has been renamed the General Assembly. He Yiming also guessed that if he passed the Athletic Association, he would definitely not be approved, so He Yiming decided to bypass the Athletic Association and directly handed the prepared application to the Federation.

The general manager is also very hesitant about this application. In principle, they do not want to approve it, but there is no reason for disapproval from the regulations, and there is a thick stack of legal documents behind the application. They just found enough If it is based on the law, if it is not approved, it must have a relatively sufficient reason.

In the director's office, Director Hou looked at the application and was extremely hesitant.

The commercialization of sports is the future trend. The country needs to develop and build, and money is needed everywhere. Just relying on the country's small subsidy funds cannot support the development of the entire country's sports. Therefore, in recent years, sports lottery and other The leagues of several major leagues have also begun large-scale reforms and introduced commercial operation models. These are all efforts to commercialize sports. And since the establishment of Team Yao, it is not uncommon for domestic athletes to set up a special economic team. Now that there are examples, there are reasonable reasons for approval.

But the national conditions are different after all. Athletes are the assets of the country. If it is commercialized, it will cause a lot of trouble. Let alone whether it will lose control over the athletes. Just talking about the economic benefits will make many athletes lose Orientation and losing yourself.

"What should I do?" Director Hou kept tapping the pen on the paper, not knowing whether to write "Agree" or "Disagree".

At this moment, Director Hou's cell phone rang suddenly. As a leader of his level, the normal contact method should be to contact the secretary first, and those who can directly call the phone must be acquaintances.

Director Hou picked up the phone and exchanged a few pleasantries with the other party, but the next topic of conversation made Director Hou look serious.

This call is to help Zhang Guan make a statement.

This surprised Director Hou a little. The other side of the phone is also a person with status, but he definitely has nothing to do with the sports industry. He is willing to speak for Zhang Guanlai. Director Hou was a little surprised. What's more, this application was only placed on him not long ago In front of him, but the call came in such a timely manner, which shows that the other party's energy is definitely not small.

Director Hou is still hesitating. He is weighing the pros and cons. He was originally a very serious and responsible person, but now that he is facing retirement, he is more cautious when making decisions. This is his responsibility and responsibility.

At this moment, the phone rang again, and Director Hou picked up the phone, and it turned out to be another one who came to speak for Zhang Guan.

Director Hou knew that it would be impossible to invite two people to be lobbyists. Looking at the thick pile of legal documents behind him, Director Hou could vaguely guess that Zhang Guan This so-called brokerage team is definitely not simple.

He began to rummage through the list of members of the "champion team" attached to the file below.

"Liu Jing, lawyer; Xu Xiujie, advertising company; Hong Zinan, public relations; Zhou Hanlin, accountant; Zhuge Wenbo, exclusive agent. They are quite complete!" Director Hou then looked at the last name.

"He Yiming, Yiming consulted...it turned out to be him! No wonder he was able to find those two lobbyists." At this moment, the mystery in Hou Ju's mind was instantly solved, and he also guessed the cause and effect closely.

Yiming Consulting Company is not very well-known, and ordinary people may not have heard of it at all, but at Director Hou's level, they have more or less heard of He Yiming's name.

Although the question in Director Hou's mind was solved, he still didn't write for a long time, and he was still thinking about what to do. He is a very principled person. Even if someone comes to be a lobbyist for Zhang Guan, he will still consider issues and make decisions from the perspective of the overall situation.

"After all, the commercial operation of sports is a trend, and Zhang Guan's situation is also very special. It can be an attempt, which is another form of exploration. But there must be a premise. Some things that must be controlled, or It can’t get out of control, otherwise there will be trouble.” Director Hou thought of this, and gave instructions with a swipe of his pen.

...

In the conference room of the Athletics Association, discussions are also underway on Zhang Guan's formation of a championship team.

"Under the circumstances that it does not affect normal training, does not affect competition results, and does not bring negative effects, it is approved in principle." After reading this instruction, the president turned the application over and faced everyone, and then said: " This is the personal instruction of the head of the General Administration."

"What do leaders mean? Under normal circumstances, the General Administration doesn't get involved in the management of the association's athletes!" A leader next to him said.

"Maybe the leader wants to explore this aspect of work!" The chairman did not discuss the leader's ideas in detail, but turned to look at Director Luo, and then asked: "Director Luo, the specific business work of the Field Management Center is up to you Responsible, before Liu Feiren’s business operation, the center has done a good job, you are also experienced, so let’s talk about your opinion first!”

Director Luo's position in the Athletics Association is the vice president and the director of the Athletic Management Center. In the domestic system, there is a management center under each association, which is responsible for specific business work, and the leader of the management center is generally served by a vice president of the association.

Director Luo cleared his throat and said: "In the past few years, we have carried out some commercial operations on Liu Feiren. This is also an attempt by the center to operate on the commercial value of athletes. Although we have achieved certain results, I think There is still a lot of room for improvement. In terms of business operations alone, I admit that there is a gap between our center and professional brokers. So I think leadership means that it is okay to form a broker team by yourself, and it is also okay to participate in commercial activities. But there must be a degree! This degree is proposed by the leaders of the General Administration, which does not affect normal training, does not affect competition results, and does not bring negative effects. The concept of leadership is very forward-looking, so I suggest to follow the instructions of the leadership and let Zhang Guan Form a brokerage team, but we cannot completely give up supervision.”

"If you open this hole, if other athletes follow suit in the future, it will not be good for our management in the future, right? Athletes hire agents, and the income from endorsement advertising will definitely be independent. Once this person has money, he will not You will be too obedient. You can’t say that you are too busy to carry out business activities, and you don’t even participate in the competition.” A bald man next to him said.

This bald man was surnamed Qu and was also the vice president of the association.

Director Luo discovered two athletes, Liu Feiren and Zhang Guan, during his tenure, and won two gold medals in the Olympic sprint event. There are already rumors within the sports system that Director Luo may be promoted because of this.

Once director Luo is promoted, the position of director of the field management center will be vacant. Under normal circumstances, another vice president will also serve as the director of the center. President Qu is currently the most likely person to become the next director of the center.

Chairman Qu's position is that the association should be responsible for the development of athletes' commercial value. As Chairman Qu himself said, he is very worried that once the athletes have a lot of money, they will no longer obey the command of the field management center. President Qu does not hope that after he takes over the field management center in the future, his biggest athlete He refused to be obedient, so President Qu objected to Zhang Guan's establishment of a broker team.

There was no expression on the president's face, and he didn't know if he had seen through President Qu's intentions, but after weighing the pros and cons, he said: "Since the General Administration has issued instructions, we must implement them seriously. So I suggest First, follow the instructions of the leadership of the General Administration, and agree with Zhang Guan to form a team of agents to be responsible for the development of his personal commercial value. This will be used as a pilot in our management of athletes, but it must not affect the normal training and competition results. , and cannot have a negative impact.”

"At the same time, we have to make three rules first. Once Zhang Guan's participation in commercial activities affects his normal training, affects his competition results, or causes a negative impact, he will be ordered to disband his agent team, and our center will be responsible for his commercial value. Develop!"

Director Luo nodded and took the lead in agreeing. He didn't have much experience in the operation of athletes' commercial value, so he was crossing the river by feeling the stones, so he cared more about the "pilot".

President Qu also agreed. The so-called "three chapters of the agreement" are actually not clear. What is "affecting normal training"? What is "impacting competition results"? What is "causing a negative impact"? Five hours of training today, four and a half hours of training tomorrow, is this called impact training? You broke the world record in this competition, and you only won a championship in the next competition but failed to break the world record. Does this affect the result of the competition? All this is not clearly defined at all. In President Qu's view, the final interpretation and decision-making power is still in the hands of the Athletic Association, as long as the association is willing, but it can find an excuse to order Zhang Guan to disband the management team.

The second chapter was delivered a few hours earlier, because I was on the night shift today and the Internet was disconnected at night, so I just sorted out my thoughts. The head of the association should be called "Chairman". To avoid harmony, change to "President", but it doesn't sound very smooth.
