Chicago 1990

"Scott is gone, cursing."

Back in the study, Goodman handed over a glass of whiskey. "He said you haven't helped the company design a new style for a long time."

"Coffee bar, I want to be sober these days." Song Ya declined, speaking of the new style, there are a lot of young people's clothing in the apocalypse movie football stunner, except for school uniforms and sportswear that are almost indistinguishable from the current era. There is potential to be tapped, "Tell him I will produce some more next year, but don't expect too much."

"Ok."

Goodman went outside to retrieve a cup of coffee, "Is it because of drinking?"

"What?" Song Ya didn't react.

"You fainted in public last time... Everyone cares about your aplus." Goodman handed him the coffee.

"How come, just fainted for a while... just fainted."

If this is not good, I can't really explain it to him, Song Ya changed the subject, "Any other things?"

"Oh, yes, Bob Bradley of the Just Fire team called Taraji, saying that the annual salary of the Chinese players you suggested to recruit is too high." Goodman said.

"High?" Song Ya was stunned. "Isn't it possible? Has professional football developed so well over there?"

"Ask Bob yourself."

The 13.8 shares of the Chicago Fire are in his own name. At present, he only intends to let Goodman and Hamlin take care of him. The team is managed by a professional sports manager hired by Anschutz and is influenced by his British cousin. With the influence of football tradition, the head coach Bob has more power.

"Bob, it's me, aplus." Song Ya didn't plan to follow up on such trivial matters personally, and only bought the team yesterday! I didn't expect Song Asheng's efficiency to be so high.

"It's such a boss..."

Bob Bradley gave a brief introduction. In fact, he also relayed the information that Song Asheng had inquired. It was very detailed.

The player named Hao Dapao actually almost moved to a South American team this year. At that time, the opponent's annual salary for him was 200,000 meters, but because the team was unwilling to let him go, he failed. Then another team in China offered him 3 million soft sister coins with an annual salary of 2 million in transfer fees, but his Bayi team was still unwilling to let it go.

And the current U.S. League’s appeal to international players is not as good as that of South America. Does Qi want to dig someone and have to add more money?

This is not so affectionate. According to Song Asheng, Hao Dapao still holds the rank of major, and China has regulations that players under the age of 28 are not allowed to go abroad. The Bayi team has a good relationship with Song Asheng, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce of China. They belong to different systems and do not buy each other.

"It's a big game..." Song Ya really didn't expect that professional sports in the motherland would be so prosperous. According to Bob Bradley, the U.S. Major League Soccer had not only recruited the old-age star players from Europe to play the role. , The annual salary of most players is only between five and one hundred thousand dollars...

"Let's find it from Eastern Europe." Bob Bradley thoughtfully gave the boss a step, "Poland is very good, Polish players are cheap and easy to use."

I just boasted about going to Haikou in front of him yesterday, so now I am going to swallow my words back? Anyway, I am the 300th richest man in the United States! Song Ya came up with paranoia, "It's okay, continue to follow up, I really want to do this!"

Otherwise, how to show the aplus's ability? Huh...

"That will destroy the team's salary balance..." Bob Bradley persuaded: "Although he is indeed a good forward."

"In this way, you can go there in person, if you think it's worth...the transfer fee and the excess of the annual salary...I personally paid it!"

Song Ya converted the exchange rate in his heart. The transfer fee plus the annual salary is calculated as 5 million soft sister coins, except for 8.7, it is less than 600,000 dollars. It's small... well, it's not a small money, no matter! Gone floats once, the team is originally a big toy for the rich.

"I will let Song Asheng handle other difficulties. You only need to communicate with the Bayi team and Hao Dapao personally."

Song Ya resolutely hung up the phone and called Song Asheng, "Lao Song, work harder! Find someone, find the biggest leader you can ask, and just let a player go... I invested so much business over there. , Winery, clothing factory, and vcd...Huh? I still have a 15% stake in a vcd factory. How is Wanyan developing?"

"Wanyan's development is not bad. There are a lot of VCD manufacturers over there. Their product strength is average and they can be maintained by the reputation of the old brand. Sales... OK, it should be ranked in the top five in China. But profitability is very poor."

Wan Yan’s shares are now under the centralized management of a+ venture capital. After another day, Dr. Chen also took his hands to report on the work. “Do you need to advise them to adjust? Mr. Jiang seems to be more stubborn.”

"Forget it." Song Ya was discouraged by that investment long ago. Besides, the right to speak in shares is not enough. "You let Factory Manager Jiang also initiate a personal relationship and help me introduce a player."

"ball……"

Dr. Chen didn't expect the boss's thinking to jump so sharply, "Okay. This is where our a+ venture capital investment fund of 10 million dollars at the end of this year and early next year will go..."

With the rise of the Internet industry this year, Dr. Chen has well implemented his boss’s investment direction of “selling jeans” and participated in a large number of Internet software and hardware manufacturers and network equipment startups’ angel rounds and round a. Not much money.

"so much?"

Song Ya was a little embarrassed when he saw the pile of documents he carried out, "I have to see when to go, and I don't know much about it..."

"You are too humble boss."

Dr. Chen patiently introduced one by one that he has his own distinctive personal style in venture capital. He divided all start-up companies into several tiers according to his own evaluation scores, and each tier corresponds to a different investment quota.

"Just look at the gear with the highest score." Hao Dapao had to be left behind, and he was busy from the afternoon to the early morning, only one third of it was finished.

Song Ya yawned and became lazy, "These companies are more weird than the names of the other companies. Those with a style similar to Yahoo will increase my memory difficulty."

"Yes, there are too many new companies, the rate of duplication of names is high, and the industry ethos also respects unconventionalism."

Dr. Chen smiled and said: "These are the first-tier companies, each of which has invested between 500,000 and 1 million yuan. Most of them only allowed me to enter the game for your sake."

"what……"

Does the name of Flying Pig work? Song Ya looked at it proudly. The plans of these companies are very professional. One of the ppts is absolutely perfect, squeezing the limited resources of Microsoft PowerPoint to the extreme. It is colorful and organized, and there is no lack of good prospects for the company. Lyrical outline.

"Juniper? This company looks great. Network equipment, core routers? I think he always compares Cisco's high-end product lines."

Song Ya is not completely ignorant.

"Yes, the boss is Asanyi, Predip Sindu, the original Xerox technology man." Dr. Chen replied with a smile.

"Look at people, the comparison between the ppt made by those Chinese entrepreneurs in front and his one~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is like a tramp who meets Gao Fushuai!" Song Ya exclaimed, "Really, tell the story. Competence is also a technical job... how much do you plan to invest in this company?"

"The seed round of 500,000 dollars can get about 10% of the shares. They claim that the selling point of the new product is that most of the data transmission is completed by hardware, which is faster and more stable than Cisco's software implementation, and new data packet transmission. In this way, less channel time is occupied and the efficiency is higher."

"Tsk, seed round, how professional it looks..."

Song Ya liked it more and more, "Why don't you vote more?"

"Uh, let's diversify the risks. A good ppt does not mean that we can make a good product and run a good company." Dr. Chen replied: "And Mr. Xin Du agreed that when we invested 10 million, we were almost all allocated."

"used up?"

"Yes."

"Well...In this way, I personally pay another 500,000 yuan, and you will fight for me again. I want more."

"Ok."
