Top of the big era

Both Zhou Buqi and Shi Jingmei are very satisfied with the performance of blind box sales in the market over the past year. Chaowan Commune made 22 million pounds, and Manchester United made 28 million pounds.

Thinking of this, Zhou Buqi took out his mobile phone and called San Dezi and asked about Manchester United's income from jersey sales this past season.

Jersey sponsorship is the main sponsor, and jersey sales are often a team's largest source of commercial income.

Zhou Buqi has seen various data reports of Manchester United and is not very impressed.

Sandoko said with a smile: "This past season, jersey sales were either first or second."

"Huh? Not sure yet?"

"Yes, it is mainly to compete with Real Madrid. This past season, Real Madrid introduced stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaká, and their fans sold well. However, they are from the Adidas camp, and we don't know the specific sales data. According to Relevant agencies estimate that the number is between 1.2 million and 1.5 million."

"What about us?"

"The agency predicts that Manchester United and Real Madrid are in the first tier, both with between 1.2 million and 1.5 million."

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "Don't be too pretentious! How much is it?"

Sandoko was about to be promoted recently, so he was very happy. His attitude towards Boss Zhou became more and more friendly, and he also liked to joke. He smiled and said: "The real data is 1.55 million pieces. The agency predicted less. Well, what I said It’s just the official jerseys that we get a share of the sales from.”

Zhou Buqi seemed to remember, "Yes, I remember this number. It's a coincidence. It seems that Beckham sold the most jerseys, with 750,000 jerseys."

Santoku said: "Yes, Real Madrid relies on Cristiano Ronaldo, and Manchester United relies on Beckham."

"What about sales?"

"That's a lot. The total should be 120 million pounds."

Zhou Buqi then asked: "What is our income?"

San Dezi thought for a while, "I can't remember the specific data clearly. How about I look for it and send it to you?"

"No need, just the data."

"The total revenue should be about 37 million pounds, with a fixed sponsorship fee of 25 million pounds and a 10% sales share totaling 12 million pounds. Well, about the same."

Zhou Buqi was not satisfied with such a data.

The jersey is the soul of the team, so it makes so little money.

Not much more than a blind box.

This is also due to the operations of Manchester United's previous board of directors. They sold Manchester United's 10-year sponsorship contract for a total price of 250 million pounds, which did not expire until 2015.

Although such a price is enough to rank fifth in the world in today's football world.

But, this is Manchester United!

It is the best commercially run club in the world. Compared with Real Madrid, which is more attractive in some developing countries, Manchester United targets more developed countries and regions.

Jersey sponsorship is actually the advertising fees paid by companies such as Adidas and Nike.

For the same level of influence, it is of course better to spend advertising dollars in developed areas. Only with stronger spending power can you have higher income. In this regard, Manchester United is an English-speaking club and has more advantages than Real Madrid and Barcelona. It should be number one in the world.

But don’t worry too much.

Now Manchester United is on the right track under the leadership of Zhou Buqi. Not only must the competitive field develop well, but the commercial field must also develop well.

In his previous life, Santoku, who was proficient in business operations, signed a contract with Adidas in 2015 for a sky-high price of 750 million pounds over 10 years after his contract with Nike expired. This can truly reflect the brand value of Manchester United. The annual sponsorship fee of 75 million pounds is more than the combined total of Real Madrid and Barcelona in the same period.

Zhou Buqi found a man in Manchester United's business who was more proficient in business operations than San Dezi, Gilbert Lawrence, and then just give them enough trust.

Then, he told Sandoko that the football group's plan was about to be launched. Hope would not participate at the investment level, but Hoffenheim was willing to join this global football system in the competitive field. This job is not easy to do, and when the time comes, it will be up to San Dezi to take the lead.

Of course Santoku is willing. This is the job of chairman and CEO. Who wouldn't want to get such an opportunity to show off his talents? He asked: "What about the work at Manchester United?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Let's take it part-time. Manchester United is the core part of this football system. You can coordinate in the middle when the time comes. Ferguson has not retired yet. When he retires, Manchester United will fully switch to German football. You should have seen this World Cup, what kind of mentality the German team has, this is the trend of European football in the future."

Here, after he finally finished the call, Yang Mi became a little impatient and leaned over and whispered, "I want to go to the bedroom."

Before Zhou Buqi could react, "Why are you going to the bedroom?"

Yang Mi winked and said, "I'm thinking about it."

"Hmm...huh?" Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows. Seeing her silky eyes and wet face, he said angrily: "You're so greedy. We're going to Warsaw. We'll be there in a minute."

"Oh." Yang Mi pouted, as if unwilling to accept it, and then she said in a flattering tone: "It's really amazing. You can make money just by opening a company. One Manchester United made more than 20 million pounds." , next season plus Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Arsenal, Bayern, Chelsea and other giants, wouldn’t that be a huge profit?! Can you make 200 million pounds a year?”

Zhou Buqi hummed, "You know what I'm asking for!"

Yang Mi said with a smile: "I don't understand football, I just know the names of some teams."

Zhou Buqi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He put his hand gently on her shoulder and said easily: "You can't calculate the accounts like this. Manchester United's blind boxes sell well because this is Manchester United and has the highest quality brand in developed countries. Others Those teams, even if they are wealthy, may not have such a large audience around the world."

Shi Jingmei sat opposite, somewhat angry.

I feel that this brother-in-law has really bad taste. It is understandable that he is having fun with a little star, but as for talking to her about these business matters! What is this for? Want to train her? Teaching a starlet to be a boss?

Please!

Have fun!

Are you really here?

Especially the way this little star is trying to please, coquettishly, flatter, and seduce is really hard to watch. No wonder Zhen Yu, Sun Wanran and Ning Lu stayed far away from each other.

However, Yang Mi's next words broke her guard.

Yang Mi said with a strange expression: "Mr. Shi told me last time that he wanted to adopt me as his daughter."

Shi Jingmei was shocked and felt that she had heard wrong.

Mr. Shi?

Which Mr. Shi?

Couldn't it be my younger sister Shi Jinglin?

Zhou Buqi was also surprised, "Shi Jinglin?"

"Yes."

"When did you say that?"

"It's been several months, since you got married. She also said that she also likes Reya and asked me to make peace."

As soon as Yang Mi finished speaking, Shi Jingmei couldn't bear it anymore, so she got up and left.

crazy!

This sister's brother-in-law...well, it's not that they don't belong to the same family, these two are really a perfect match.

Zhou Buqi twitched the corner of his mouth, "You agreed?"

"No, I can't scream. I'm embarrassed." Yang Mi looked at him carefully, "But I listen to you. If you ask me to scream, I will scream."

Zhou Buqi snorted: "Don't worry about her. She may have just gotten married and the excitement hasn't passed yet. She doesn't know how to act like a monster. During our honeymoon, she did a lot of dirty work on me!"

Yang Mi was like a curious baby, "How did you do it?"

Zhou Buqi coughed, changed the subject, and looked at her sternly, "There is no one here now, let's be honest! Why did you rush here this time?"

"I miss you."

Yang Mi was still acting coquettishly, shaking his arm with her voice in her throat.

Zhou Buqi's eyes widened, "Tell the truth!"

"I……"

"What on earth is going on? Do you really think I can't see your little thoughts?"

"Hee hee..." Yang Mi was quite self-aware and hesitated before saying weakly, "Jieyu Media is going to split its shares..."

Zhou Buqi was a little strange, "What do you mean? Are you afraid of losing your share? How did you get such a brain?"

Yang Mi said sadly: "We have a share, 2.4 million shares. Jiang Bingjie, Li Xinwan, um, Reya also has it, we are all the same."

Zhou Buqi glanced at her and said, "How much do you want? That's not possible. You have to be treated fairly."

"No, I didn't want to ask for it. But that day I was in Mr. Xu's office, and accidentally... accidentally..." Yang Mi felt guilty, with a stern look on her face, "I read a document on her desk, saying it was original The internal price of the stock is 80 Hong Kong dollars."

"Um."

Zhou Buqi knew about this and approved it.

Before Jieyu Media goes public in Hong Kong, it needs to complete its share transformation, which is to introduce more shareholders and sell some original shares. But the pricing of original shares is more complicated.

If it is too cheap, the interests of Jieyu Media will be lost; if it is too expensive, others will not be able to afford it, and the enthusiasm for subscribing will be greatly reduced.

After some analysis, it was decided to value Jieyu Media at HK$80 billion, with a total of 1 billion shares.

One share is HK$80.

This is a problem. Yang Mi feels that she has paid so much and finally got 2.4 million original shares... But she can't afford it!

80 Hong Kong dollars per share, 2.4 million shares, which is nearly 200 million Hong Kong dollars!

The sponsor's father has given her great material satisfaction in the past few years, but he really doesn't have much cash. He mainly buys houses, cars and gifts, and also gave her a sum of original internal shares of Huayi.

Yang Mi stood up, sat on his lap, and said with a pout: "The price of the original stock is too expensive, we can't afford it. Even I can't afford it, and Reya and the others can't even afford it. I heard that the parents of Reya and Bingjie have come to the capital, saying that their families need to raise money and may sell their houses."

Zhou Buqi was angry and funny, "Is this all you want?"

"Yeah!" Yang Mi nodded with a peck of rice, but then she felt something was wrong, so she leaned over and kissed him on the face, and said sweetly, "The main thing is that I miss you, so come and see."

Zhou Buqi sighed and said helplessly: "You are already in business, so you should read more books and study more. The original stocks are also divided into categories. The original stocks worth 80 yuan are the last batch. The price is mainly for investment institutions. You are an artist signed by Jieyu Media, and you are getting the first batch... Forget it, don't worry about this. Anyway, when the company calls you, just go and sign the contract. ."

a piece of cake.
