Chapter 119 Businessman

Melbourne Grand Prix.

It was the first stop of the 2005 IAAF Tour.

In 2005, the World Athletics Federation planned a total of 36 races, including the tour, the Golden League, and the Super Grand Prix. On average, there are three races per month, which is unprecedented.

In this kind of competition, each game has a special bonus, and you can also get points. If the points are ranked high enough, you can participate in the Golden League, work hard for the [-]-kilogram gold prize, and finally there will be a super grand prix held at the end of the year .

Melbourne Station is a stop of the tour, and the champion can get 6 IAAF 2005 points on this project.

Anyway, as long as the grades are good enough and you want to run, you will never be idle this year. It is normal to earn millions of dollars a year by running.

Of course, most athletes who have the ability to achieve excellent results in these competitions will not count on the prize money to live on, especially in an environment like the mainland with a huge consumer market and weak track and field sports, the value of a championship is very high. huge.

No, Pan Kai has already obtained the brand spokesperson of A·F?

……

"The Administration is very satisfied with the content of this A·F endorsement contract." Dong Zijian said, "They think this is more beneficial to us than the contract between DM and Liu Yu."

"In the contract between DM and Liu Yu, Liu Yu takes 50%, the coach 15%, the provincial team takes 20%, and the field management center only takes 15%. Of course they are not satisfied." Li Yan said, "In our contract, Pan Kai gets 40%, we get 10%, the provincial team gets 10%, and the remaining 40% belongs to the General Administration.”

"But the General Administration thinks the amount of this contract is too small." Dong Zijian said.

"It's because Pan Kai's performance is not good enough. Liu Yu's future is the Grand Slam of the world's high hurdles. Pan Kai... is still far away." Li Yan said, "Pan Kai only needs to compete with Liu Yu to win the championship. When it comes to A·F's contract, those guys in A·F are very shrewd, although they want a mainland spokesperson, they will never give Pan Kai the same contract amount as Liu Yu."

Dong Zijian nodded, he understood the truth.

"In any case, this is also a multi-million dollar contract. Our coaching staff will have 10% of the share, and the members of our coaching staff are very simple, so, you and I, seven or three points." Li Yan said .

"...That's too much." Dong Zijian shook his head hastily.

"Compared with your contribution to the national team, it is not much at all. In the future, as long as Pan Kai's performance is good enough, he will have a second, third, and more sky-high contracts. This is what I call sports business. " Li Yan smiled like a devil, "It's definitely touching enough."

Dong Zijian's eyes wavered.

……

The 200-meter champion of the Melbourne station of the World Athletics Federation Tour.

The spokesperson of A·F.

Early 2005.

The two news about Pan Kai hit the domestic sports circle like a boulder.

The two giants of international sports, after DM chose Liu Yu, A·F's choice this time undoubtedly confirmed Pan Kai's commercial value in track and field after Liu Yu from a commercial point of view.

And the first place in the 200m in the Melbourne Grand Prix, with an astonishing time of 20 seconds, brought Pan Kai's reputation in the industry to the peak of his life.

On the Internet, public opinion is flooding in like a tide.

Bear the brunt of Rousseau.

Numerous sailors brushed up such news and trampled on news reports or forum posts supporting Rousseau.

Rousseau's supporters were left speechless.

Because this time, after Pan Kai took a big stride to refresh his 200-meter score, he is already the undisputed first person in the domestic sprint, and Rousseau's indoor Grand Slam results... Everyone knows that Pan Kai didn't run at all in indoor track and field Pass.

The famous short track players in the world have always been less interested in indoor competitions.

Now, the most vocal supporters of Rousseau don't know where to argue that Rousseau's performance is not weaker than Pan Kai's.

But Guan Zhaoyue felt that something was wrong.

He specially went to the sports institute to find Lu Jinrong.

Recently, Guan Zhaoyue has been running very frequently in Pengcheng Sports Academy, mostly to interview Rousseau, or just to watch Rousseau's training.

This time, Lu Jinrong received the editor-in-chief of the provincial newspaper who had been cheering for Rousseau in the coach's office.

"Old Lu, you tell Rousseau, don't worry about Pan Kai's grades, he is bluffing." Guan Zhaoyue said.

"Huh? How should I say it?" Lu Jinrong didn't understand.

"Look, here is the schedule for this year's IAAF Golden League, and the competition events for the Golden Grand Prix, including men's 100m, 110m hurdles, and 400m..." Guan Zhaoyue showed Lu Jinrong the information he brought. .

"Yes." Lu Jinrong nodded.

"This year's Golden Grand Prix does not include the 200 meters." Guan Zhaoyue said.

"I know...you mean, this project is not the focus this year, and the competition is low?" Lu Jinrong understood.

The Gold Grand Prix has six races this year, starting in June and ending in December.

Until June, there will be at least one tour per continent.

Not all competitions in the tour will become bonus events in the six Golden Grand Prix races. There is no 200-meter race among the events that can compete for the Gold Grand Prix this year.

Guan Zhaoyue said: "Yes, almost no heavyweight players participated in the 200-meter event in Melbourne, so Pan Kai won the first place in 10 seconds. The same is true for the Thailand Athletics Open, although it is also a second-level tour certified by the IAAF. However, it is already the end of the year, international sprinters are all participating in the Super Grand Prix, and they are not concerned at all, and Pan Kai also won the first place."

"So, Li Yan deliberately asked Pan Kai to win the first place in these international competitions that no one is competing for, and then to promote it in China..." Lu Jinrong was stunned.

"This is not sports thinking, but business thinking." Guan Zhaoyue said, "So Pan Kai actually got the brand endorsement of A·F. There are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings!"

"I can't say that. Without Rousseau, Pan Kai would be the veritable number one in the domestic sprint. Of course, except for the 110-meter hurdles." Lu Jinrong said, the results are there, 100 seconds for the 10 meters and 15 seconds for the 200 meters. It is indeed an unprecedented peak in the history of two domestic sports.

"Pan Kai's two results are also doubtful. At last year's Izmir Universiade, the 10-meter time was only 30 seconds. He disappeared for a few months. He said he went abroad for training and improved so much when he came back?" Guan Zhaoyue shook her head, "This is too unreasonable!"

"Based on that, it's not reasonable for Rousseau's performance to improve." Lu Jinrong said, "A grade is a grade. If Rousseau does not surpass Pan Kai, he is not number one in the country. The National Games is a hurdle he must pass. He can get by." , just become a dragon and a phoenix, if you can't make it through..."

If you can't make it through, you will always be overwhelmed by Pan Kai and Li Yan, and you will not be able to raise your head in a short time.

"Li Yan is really a businessman." Lu Jinrong couldn't help feeling, "He has used everything to the point of impeccability, leaving people speechless."
