Football Giants

Chapter 454: I am the uncle!

   "I really hope that events like this tonight will appear frequently!"

  

  From the internal passage of the main stand, to the main stand, the mayor of Miami, Regalado, was excited all the way.

  

   It seems that the 70,000 fans in the huge Sun Life Stadium are not to watch the football match, but to vote for him.

  

   Below the stadium, both teams have completed the warm-up phase and returned to the locker room to prepare for the game.

  

   But the stadium is still quite lively. The rock troupe invited by the high salary is performing crazy in the stadium.

  

   The blast of drums and the excited crowd gathered together into choppy waves.

  

   Anyone who walks into this stadium will be infected and ignited by the strong atmosphere.

  

   Yang Huan was sitting next to Regalado. When he heard this, he smiled slightly, "If the Miami Dolphins' performance improves, I guess the atmosphere at home will be good too!"

  

   Regalado shook his head, "Difficult, Stephen Rose doesn't have much interest in rugby. He is interested in real estate and business. It would be nice if the Dolphins can manage it."

  

   Yang Huan still smiled faintly, but did not speak.

  

   Seeing him like this, Regalado felt helpless. Could it be that the encouragement in my words was not obvious enough?

  

   No, I think this young master Huan is deliberately pretending not to understand!

  

   is really a cunning Zhongli countryman!

  

   Well, I can only bow my head when I see you pretending to be cool!

  

  Who asks me to ask?

  

   "Mr. Yang Huan, I heard that the English Premier League Manchester City team wants to form a brand new football team in New York, right?"

  

   Yang Huan nodded and said: "Yes, Mubarak mentioned this to me."

  

   Without waiting for Regalado to speak, Yang Huan took the initiative to speak down.

  

   "But none of us are optimistic about Manchester City's plan to establish the New York City team in New York."

  

   "Why?" Regalado was strange.

  

"The reason is very simple. The football market in the United States is not yet mature, and the fan base is not stable enough. It is definitely a loss to enter the Major League Soccer. If you want to invite European balloon stars to play in the United States, the salary alone will be enough. !"

  

   Regalado can only smile at this moment.

  

   Speaking of professional football, he is not qualified to give Yang Huan shoes.

  

To put it bluntly, he is a politician. He saw that Manchester City was going to New York to invest in the football team. Then he saw the football storm set off across the United States in the last month. He was helpless to see that there was no major professional football league in Miami. Team.

  

   You must know that the Major League Soccer has announced that after 2020, the Major League will no longer accept new teams.

  

   This is the same as the NBA and NFL.

  

   In other words, until 2020, Miami will not organize a football team, then there will be no hope.

  

   If he hadn't seen the market so hot, Regalado might not have any ideas yet.

  

   But now, a total of more than 70,000 fans have gathered, attracting the attention of fans all over the world, and thousands of journalists from all over the world have gathered.

  

   For the entire city of Miami, this time it is a big show in front of the world's interface!

  

   For Regalado, this is also a political achievement!

  

   "Mr. Yang Huan, why did you lose money?" a government official sitting next to Regalado asked politely.

  

   Yang Huan smiled slightly, "It's very simple, the team has no income."

  

   Seeing the other party frowning, Yang Huan laughed.

  

"You see, the total salary expenditure of a superstar-studded team like Barcelona last year exceeded 217 million U.S. dollars, while Real Madrid's salary expenditure was as high as 200 million U.S. dollars. This is not a good thing for any professional club in the world. The department is the highest, even surpassing the New York Yankees of American professional baseball."

  

   Regalado and the government officials next to each other glanced at each other, and they couldn't help their tongues.

  

   Such a high salary? How can you afford it?

  

   "Now even if it is to recruit a group of out-of-the-box stars, organize a competitive team, and control the total salary within 100 million US dollars, it is still a loss!"

  

   Yang Huan explained it patiently.

  

"A team has three major incomes, and the broadcasting rights of Major League Soccer are not sold very well. The eight-year contract signed with ESPN in 2006 was worth only 64 million US dollars. It’s only eight million dollars a year, and it has to be scored with a dozen other teams and major leagues."

  

   Yang Huan smiled directly.

  

   That little money is not enough for Beckham's one month salary!

  

"In terms of match day income, it's not bad. The average attendance of Major League Soccer is 17 thousand, but the ticket price is not high, and the income in this area is not too much. In addition, the major leagues adopt unified control. With special systems such as unified distribution, clubs have little room for operation."

  

   In order to control costs and taxes, the Major League Soccer even has a very strange phenomenon.

  

   That is, professional players sign contracts with the major leagues, not clubs.

  

   It was not until Beckham moved to the United States in 2007 that he made an exception and introduced a specific player signing clause, allowing clubs to sign players individually and pay high salaries.

  

   There are also major league matches that are quite weird and completely out of line with international standards.

  

   For example, what regular seasons, playoffs, star games do they have, and no relegation system, etc., these are all imitating successful NBA and NFL systems.

  

"From the current situation, as the American football atmosphere has grown stronger in the past few years, the commercial operation potential has increased, but the game day income and broadcasting rights income are still quite sluggish, but the additional cost of the league is quite high. One hundred million dollars."

  

   The most valuable team in Major League Soccer is the Seattle Gulfers, with a market value of 170 million U.S. dollars.

  

   But in 2009, they only had 37 million US dollars.

  

   Yang Huan was funny in his heart. I read less, but I also know, why have you increased the market value so much in just three or four years? Did your income increase, or did you find a way to make long-term profit?

  

  Also, the total market value of your best-run team is only 170 million U.S. dollars. Why should the new team's additional fee be 100 million?

  

"Mr. Yang Huan, maybe we run a football club. We are not as good as you, but you seem to take the Major League Soccer too lightly. You know, there are currently 10 major league teams in the 19 major leagues. How do you explain the profitability?"

  

   The government official heard the dissatisfaction in Yang Huan's tone and felt that Major League Soccer was a bit of a fool for investors, and he immediately questioned him.

  

"I have nothing to explain!" Yang Huan shrugged and said with a smile: "But you should go and take a look. The data of Major League Soccer is calculated based on the profit before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. Is that right? What about the real financial situation of those ten teams?"

  

   Everyone knows that this is a very typical means and trick to whitewash financial statements.

  

   What is the real situation? Who knows if I don’t understand it in depth?

  

Besides, I invest in a football team. If I want to join your major league, I have to pay 100 million U.S. dollars in addition to the league fee, plus the stadium, team formation, training ground and employees. Then I will get a total of How much is invested?

  

   It’s almost time for me to go to Europe to buy a team from the four major leagues!

  

   Except for the big local tycoons like Manchester City who are not bad for money, or some rich people and companies in the United States who use the football team to obtain other benefits, otherwise, who would spend such unjustified money?

  

   Regalado and others really did not expect that Yang Huan conducted such an in-depth investigation of the Major League Soccer.

  

   It can be seen that he is interested in entering the American football market.

  

   But this interest is very cautious.

  

   Especially after the International Champions Cup is booming.

  

   has its own cup, why should I organize a special team to participate in your Major League Soccer game?

  

   That’s not taking off your pants and farting.

  

   Seeing that the atmosphere of the conversation gradually became a little wrong, Regalado quickly changed the subject.

  

   "Mr. Yang Huan, I wonder if plans for next year's International Champions Cup have already begun?"

  

   Judging from the situation of this year's International Champions Cup, next year's situation is definitely still very hot.

  

   "Well, it's already started."

  

   "Then really plan to expand the army?"

  

   It was reported by the American media that the organizers of the International Champions Cup saw the competition so prosperous and planned to expand into three teams.

  

   But Yang Huan shook his head, "Don't worry, next year it should still be carried out in the same way as the current two groups and eight teams, but the choice of city for the game may change."

  

   "Oh?" Regalado panicked.

  

what does this mean?

  

   Not in Miami?

  

   Or, is he doing this to start the price?

  

   You know, in order to persuade Miami to hold the final of the International Champions Cup at the Sun Life Stadium in Miami, it not only waived the rental fee of the stadium, but also gave the organizer an additional three million dollars in funding.

  

   Is this condition not good enough?

  

   Yang Huan looked at Regalado and was amused inwardly.

  

   Three million dollars?

  

   You don’t take a good look. From the lottery and grouping ceremony to the finals, how much attention did we bring to Miami?

  

   That is the attention from all over the world!

  

  Also, these 70,000 fans are from Miami?

  

   How many of them went to Miami to watch football games?

  

  The arrival of these people is just watching football?

  

   They don’t want to eat? Don't live? do not play? Don't spend shopping?

  

Yang Huan is not in a panic. He has received invitations from many American cities. The price offered is at least five million U.S. dollars in government subsidies. Your Miami’s three million U.S. dollars is at best. It can only host one semi-final.

  

   As for the lottery grouping ceremony and finals, you either increase the price or don't expect it!

  

"We will have more time to prepare for the second session, and we already have the experience of the first session, so this time we plan to arrange the lottery and grouping ceremony in February 2013, and it will still be held in the finals. !"

  

   Regalado's heart jumped, so much in advance?

  

   Yang Huan’s attitude is very clear, the tournament is mine, and I am the uncle!

  

   Come talk if you want, the price will definitely go up, do you want to hold it?

  

   You don’t do it, and we don’t care. There are many cities willing to do it anyway!

  

   can't do it anymore, I moved outside the United States!

  

   This is also a typical practice for heavyweight events such as the Olympics, World Cup and European Cup. Even the host cities of the Champions League finals and the Europa League finals have to compete in advance.

  

   Of course, the International Champions Cup has not yet reached that level, but with the success of the first edition, there must be a lot of cities willing to take over.

  

   Regalado is depressed!

  

   It is said that the strong dragon does not suppress the ground-headed snake~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But my own ground-headed snake, but Yang Huan, the transoceanic strong dragon, can’t lift his head.

  

   Are you depressed?

  

   Is there a way?

  

   There is really no way, I still have to look for someone to discuss and discuss whether to continue this event!

Just at this moment, the broadcast in the stadium sent a reminder to turn off the lights.

  

   Immediately afterwards, all the lights in the audience turned off in an instant.

  

   Suddenly, the audience screamed.

  

   Because everyone knows that the most important performer tonight is about to appear!

  

   Sure enough, as the lights came on again, when they gathered on the stage in the middle of the stadium, everyone saw a man and a woman.

  

   The male is chubby, while the female is exquisite.

  

   When the two appeared, more than 70,000 fans in the entire Sun Life Stadium immediately cheered and shouted.

  

   "Uncle Bird! Uncle Bird!!! Uncle Bird!!!"

  

   "Yoona! Yoona!!! Yoona!!!"

  

   Along with the cheers of the fans, fireworks bloomed in the stadium and live music played!

  

  The long-awaited third-generation Divine Comedy by countless music fans around the world has finally come out!
