Reborn Tycoon Rise

Somewhere in the Olympic residence.

"Mr. Xu, on behalf of all the national team athletes who came to participate in the Los Angeles Olympics this time, I would like to thank Mr. Xu for his generosity." Minister Lin raised his glass and said with a smile: "Sorry, although I am not an athlete, there are regulations above. This paragraph During this period, no one in the United States was allowed to drink alcohol, so they had to drink tea instead of wine!”

"I understand, I understand. Minister Lin has a heavy responsibility, so naturally he cannot drink at will." Xu Zhi said with a smile.

The main purpose of coming to the United States this time is to watch the Olympic Games. At the same time, I will also get some help from the mainland people who came to participate in the Olympic Games. Contracting all the athletes' clothing is only a very small investment.

Other photographers, such as those who came with the Olympic team, received a large amount of film sponsored by Midea. You must know that at the moment, the mainland does not have the ability to produce cameras and film products on its own, and its daily consumption relies on foreign exchange purchases. , even if they are sent to participate in the Olympic Games, they must strive for excellence in the content they shoot and cannot waste too much film, but they must also capture enough exciting content.

This gives all photographers a headache. There are so many competitions and no one can predict who will win the honor. The only way is to shoot every competition, but this will be a huge waste of film. The resources around you are obviously not enough, and After receiving sponsorship from Midea, the amount of film was enough for them to shoot whatever they wanted.

There is no such thing as a free lunch. In return, all photographers are told that they must point their lenses at Midea's products and billboards from time to time.

Just shoot a little more product and get a lot of film? Photographers naturally want it.

In addition to direct help from athletes and photographers, Midea also sent ten cars and more than 30 Chinese translators so that everyone could travel privately.

These are nothing to Xu Zhi, but they provide great convenience to many mainlanders who come to the United States for the first time.

Minister Lin asked: "Mr. Xu is also a sports enthusiast?"

"Of course, my favorites are football and basketball. Unfortunately, although I have some exercise, my level is still not good. I can still play basketball, but my physical strength cannot keep up with football." Xu Zhi said with a smile.

Minister Lin said: "Skills have specializations. As the most successful businessman, Mr. Xu naturally cannot have too much time to participate in this kind of sports. It is enough to have time to exercise!"

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "Minister Lin, although the current domestic economic development is good, as far as I know, investment in sports is not too high! And I believe that morality, intelligence, and physical development must be developed at the same time, so I I intend to donate 10 million US dollars to help cultivate outstanding sports talents in the mainland!"

"Really?" Minister Lin's eyes lit up. These days, any government department has an important task, which is to earn foreign exchange. Even such remote departments as sports and meteorology, although they are not expected from above, will occasionally be Mentioning the need to work hard to contribute to the country, as long as it can earn foreign exchange, it is a great achievement.

For departments without foreign affairs activities, the only way to earn foreign exchange is to persuade people around them. If there are Chinese overseas, write to them and ask them to send money back. Of course, the country will not take advantage, and the RMB after conversion will not be less than a penny.

Minister Lin is in charge of this trip to Los Angeles for the Olympics. Although the country has separately paid for everyone's round-trip air tickets, with so many people staying in the United States for more than a month, it is always necessary to prepare some US dollars. It is not mandatory. Use it, but always have money when you need it urgently. In order to obtain enough funds for foreign exchange activities, he shamelessly went to the central bank several times before getting $500,000.

When they were in the Mainland, they had been told by superiors that the Olympic team would receive help from patriotic Hong Kong businessmen after arriving in the United States. However, Minister Lin never imagined that they would receive a donation of US$10 million on the first day of the meeting.

What's more important is that, taking this opportunity, the General Administration of Sports also hooked up with Xu Zhi, a wealthy man from Hong Kong. Director Lin knew very well that the person in front of him could go directly to Tianting, Beijing, Shanghai, and other places in the mainland. There are a lot of huge investments in Deep Sea City, measured in billions of dollars.

Xu Zhi said with a smile: "The training of athletes must start from an early age. A large amount of training starting after the seedlings are discovered requires a lot of calories and nutrients. Due to economic reasons, our country's investment in this area is far less than that of Western developed countries. It must be To a certain extent, this is also one of the reasons why our country’s athletes are weak.

So I hope that this money can partially change this situation and give these future Olympic seedlings enough nutrition, so that maybe in the future, our mainland can surpass the United States in the number of Olympic gold medals and become the number one in the world! "

"Haha, thank you very much for Mr. Xu's kind words." Director Lin said with a smile, but obviously he didn't take it seriously. This time he came to participate in the Los Angeles Olympics. It meant that it would be good to win ten gold medals. In the previous Olympic Games, the United States has always been the biggest winner in each Olympic Games, ranking first in the number of gold medals many times. Currently, no one in the mainland dares to catch up with the United States in terms of sports.

"Everything is possible, just don't give up." Xu Zhi didn't say anything more. After all, in this era of reform and opening up, everyone from university professors to ordinary civilians have seen the differences between their country and Western developed countries. gap. Even some high-level officials in the Mainland have set the goal of reform and opening up as to get rid of poverty in the country and make people's lives reach the level of ordinary developing countries.

However, everyone underestimates the strength of the Chinese nation. In just thirty years, the mainland has become one of the world's economic giants.

Xu Zhi continued: "Director Lin, the sponsorship funds will be transferred to the designated account of Bank of China after the Olympic Games, but I also have a request!"

Director Lin asked: "Mr. Xu, please tell me."

Xu Zhidao: "Director Lin, you should know the Western advertising model, right?"

"I know!" Director Lin nodded. As the deputy director of the State Sports General Administration, he has had several opportunities to go abroad for inspections in the past few years. He is also familiar with some basic situations overseas. He naturally knows the advertisements that are broadcast every day on TV stations: "Mr. Xu means that we want our athletes to advertise? But there is no such policy in China at present?"

"It doesn't exist now, but it doesn't mean it won't exist in the future. During the reform and opening up, what we mainly studied was Western economics. Advertising is actually a very advanced subject. Many universities have specialized subjects. This one is well done. The stimulus to the macro-economy is also very large." Xu Zhi smiled and nodded.

Director Lin thought for a moment and said: "Okay, since Mr. Xu has so much confidence in our mainland, of course I can't ask for it. In this way, as long as the mainland's policies allow it in the future, you can borrow it for free from anyone in our bureau."

"It's not necessary if it's free. I'll give you what you have to give." Xu Zhi said with a smile. Ten million US dollars have been spent. Naturally, he won't care about more advertising fees. In this era of mainland China, giving a person A few hundred is enough, but too much will cause uncontrollable disturbances.

And this ten million US dollars can be regarded as an early investment in making good relations with the General Administration of Sports. It may not have any return throughout the 1980s, but in the 1990s and even the 21st century, this will play a great role, not just for Midea's products. In terms of endorsements, in the future, Jinniu Beverage will also enter the mainland market. As a sports-based beverage, this naturally requires a large number of sports stars and the promotion of various events.

You can achieve results by spending money, but with the help above, you will have excellent control in terms of low cost and efficiency.
