Hollywood New Century

Chapter 281 Wells Fargo Bank

Miami has always been the first choice for many Americans in winter, and the Pacific Ocean current makes Miami equally warm and comfortable in winter.

Miami, Palm Beach, Simon's seaside estate, Miami Dolphins president Tom Garfunkel is reporting to Simon about the naming of the stadium.

“At present, I have been in contact with PNC Financial Services Group, Wells Fargo Bank, Delta Air Lines, Jacksonville Group, Hard Rock Group, etc. The highest sponsorship for us is Wells Fargo and Hard Rock Group, followed by Delta Air Lines Well, the rest doesn't meet our naming criteria," said Tom Garfunkel.

Simon looked at the information in his hand, Wells Fargo Bank, Hard Rock Group, Delta Air Lines, in fact, all can.

The Hard Rock Group wants to sign a 20-year contract with an annual naming fee of $1,300; Wells Fargo wants 15 to 20 years, with an annual fee of about $9.5 million to $11 million; Delta Air Lines can agree to only sign a 10-year title, but the annual fee is only Only $7.5 million.

"20 years, I think, is too long, and the Hard Rock Group is too small, and its popularity is completely inferior to Delta Air Lines and Wells Fargo Bank," Simon knocked on the table and looked at Tom Garffin Kerr, said:

"Wells Fargo, when it comes to terms of less than 15 years, there must be an annual naming fee of 11 million US dollars. This is Miami, not those small ball markets!"

"Okay, I'll try to talk to Wells Fargo!" Tom Garfunkel responded neatly.

"By the way, it's time to renovate part of the gym next year or the year after. For now, the title and sponsorship should be done first." Simon finally reminded.

After Tom Garfunkel left, Simon leaned on the sofa and picked up the newspaper beside him.

The news about female singer Rihanna in the entertainment industry being raped by her boyfriend is indeed boring entertainment news.

In the evening, Simon came to a charity dinner at a beach club in Palm Beach and happened to meet Ivanka, who was on vacation in Miami.

As a new sports tycoon and a Hollywood mogul himself, Simon is very popular at parties.

Bankers, speculators, celebrities, sports celebrities, rich second generation, entrepreneurs, Simon is also happy to deal with them.

"What do you think about the current financial situation, Simon?" Daniel Gilbert, who runs the mortgage company Quicken Loan Fund, is also the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

"There is still a period of time, the economy needs a recovery period," Simon smiled, but suddenly changed the subject,

"The Cavaliers' current results are very good, and they are always the first in the league now. LeBron James' ability is amazing!"

Daniel Gilbert smiled wryly and shook his head. The Cavaliers played well in the regular season, but they were worried about the playoffs.

On top of that, LeBron James' contract is coming to an end, and renewal negotiations are too tough right now.

Little Cleveland has little confidence in keeping LeBron James, and there are not enough helpers. It is impossible to win the championship by one person. It is not enough to rely on feelings, it is necessary to rely on capital and honor.

There are a lot of people going after LeBron James right now, and the Nets team in front of him is very positive.

After the somewhat awkward conversation with Daniel Gilbert, Simon sat down on the sofa in a good mood.

Coincidentally, Ivanka came over after chatting with Mickey Arison.

"I heard that now you are discussing the naming of the arena? You have a clue!" Ivanka sat down and began to ask.

"It's almost there, I chose Wells Fargo, at least their reputation is good, and now it's time to talk about the cost and time limit," Simon has nothing to hide, the negotiation is mainly about commercial promotion.

While listening, Ivanka nodded and said, "Many people are now speculating whether you will enter baseball and ice hockey again, but I heard that you are interested in English football!"

Simon said with a smile: "Didn't you find it, now a lot of American capital is pouring into the Premier League. Capital is profit-seeking. In terms of football, the commercial promotion of the Premier League is indeed the most successful, and I am not to be left behind!"

Ivanka pouted, there is no way, money is willful, you can do what you like at will, and more than one billion dollars can be spent without blinking an eye.

"The private island holiday home in the Bahamas has been renovated. Are you going to take a look?" Ivanka asked.

Simon's eyes lit up, this proposal is not bad, he responded: "Well, you can arrange it, you can go there and enjoy a few days in peace!"

Anyway, it's also close to Miami, and Ivanka is a beautiful woman with a good figure.

"Okay," Ivanka said and stood up and smiled: "Someone is here, I guess it's looking for you!"

Stan Kroenke and John Henry came over, and Simon also got up to say hello to them.

Stan Kroenke is one of the sons-in-law of the Walmart family, who owns the NBA Denver Nuggets, NFL St. Louis Rams and other teams. Moreover, now there are almost 15% of the shares of Arsenal Club.

As for John Henry, he was the owner of New England Sports Entertainment (the future of Fenway Sports), with assets such as the Boston Red Sox baseball team and the New England Regional Sports Network.

However, compared to Simon, the two of them are indeed not comparable. Stan Kroenke is okay, but his wife's worth is much higher than him.

"Both of them are currently working on acquiring Premier League clubs, I seem to have this idea too, just in time for

To communicate," Simon laughed, Stan Kroenke's interest in Arsenal is well known, but Arsenal's equity distribution is very scattered, especially the Russian tycoon who holds a lot of shares, it needs to be done step by step.

As for John Henry's New England Sports Investment Company, which is also thinking about expanding overseas sports, Premier League clubs are still the first choice.

"Really! You have acquired the New Jersey Nets and the Miami Dolphins for two consecutive years, and now you want to start with the Premier League!" How can this not surprise Stan Kroenke.

John Henry has grown up with a mouth. The New England Sports Investment Group itself is only a major shareholder. When it bought the Boston Red Sox, it also sold the baseball team Florida Marlins.

"It's really a young man's world now. Nine-headed bird sports and entertainment are developing too fast." John Henry is indeed studying the situation of Liverpool in the Premier League.

"The combination of sports and entertainment will have a great chemical reaction. The two of you know better than me. Our Hollywood has always been closely connected with the sports circle!" Simon said and touched the two of them.

The three had a glass of wine together.
