America is in control

Chapter 194 Preparation before Negotiation
"John, I heard that you have returned to Los Angeles. Do you have time to talk about the boxing championship unification fight now?"

Bob's gentle voice came from the phone receiver, with a hint of urgency in his words.

"Boss, Yahoo's IPO has really exhausted me during this period!"

"Now that I have finally regained some form, I'm about to call you!"

"Should we just talk on the phone about the boxing championship unification fight?"

General Liu sneered in his heart, "Yu Ya, now you know how anxious you are. Have you forgotten all about how you treated me so perfunctorily before?"

Not to mention your disgusting little tricks, I feel sick even thinking about it now.

He gave a random reason and asked Bob to talk to him if he had something to say and not waste time.

"John, let's talk about this boxing championship unification fight in person!"

“How about you pay a visit to Top Promotions?”

"Besides the boxing championship unification fight, there are some things I want to talk to you about!"

Bob extended an invitation to General Liu, and his tone was very sincere.

Liu Jiang knew with his butt that the other party was planning to renew the contract.

But do you want to go to a top promotion company? It’s a beautiful thought!

That's Bob's home base. If the other party resorts to some shady tricks, he will be capsized in the gutter.

Anyway, it’s not me who is anxious now. If you want to negotiate a contract extension, you can come to Los Angeles.

"New York? I've just returned to Los Angeles not long ago, and I don't want to move yet."

"Boss, why don't you wait for a while longer and I'll get back to my recovery state!"

"When Yahoo holds its next shareholder meeting, I will come to New York. Let's talk about it then!"

If General Liu doesn't accept the other party's tricks, does he really think that he is still the poor boy he was before?
Since the day Yahoo went public, the offensive and defensive momentum has been different! The bandits can go, and so can I!

Isn’t it just procrastination? Who is afraid of Who!
"Uh! John, I've almost finished talking to the other party's boxing promoter!"

"In order to prevent any further mishaps, it would be better for us to finalize the boxing championship unification fight as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, I'll come to Los Angeles. You should have nothing to do tomorrow!"

After a little hesitation, Bob changed his attitude. It seemed that he was really anxious.

"Boss, will it not affect your other arrangements?"

Liu Jiang asked pretending to be concerned, and his overwhelming aura made him feel quite secretly happy.

"Will not"

"Okay, we'll see you tomorrow!"

After hanging up the phone, Liu Jiang fell into deep thought.

Bob is so eager this time, it may be a good opportunity for himself.

If you can take the opportunity to get a part of the boxing match profits, such as PPV sharing or something.

Then he will completely escape the fate of a boxing wage earner and no longer be a low-level boxer who is exploited.

This kind of ecological niche jump is not easy, and few boxers can do it.

Once successful, the reward you get for playing a game will increase exponentially.

Your own cash flow will also become more abundant, and your ability to resist risks will continue to increase.

Of course, it is not easy to do all this. Bob is not an easy guy to deal with, and he will not let himself succeed easily.

Tomorrow's negotiation will definitely be a fierce battle, and you must be fully prepared.

Thinking of this, General Liu immediately notified Harvey and others and asked them to come to the Irvine Villa to discuss important matters.

Not long after, all the confidants arrived one by one, including Terry.

As Liu Jiang's boxing manager, Terry has been in the professional boxing world for so many years, so he is indispensable for negotiations. Terry has performed well during this period, and Liu will be ready to tell him more inside information to avoid any mistakes during the negotiations.

Welcoming everyone into the study, Liu Jiang slowly stated his plan.

After thinking for a while, Harvey spoke first.

"John, your current fame is not equivalent to your income from each game, and the idea of ​​​​striving for benefits is reasonable."

"But Bob, that old fox, doesn't give in so easily. He's a very calculating guy!"

"He will probably put forward corresponding conditions, such as renewing the contract in advance and extending the contract period, stipulating a minimum number of games per year, etc."

"You have to be mentally prepared and even draw a line in advance so we can make plans."

After speaking, he looked at General Liu with bright eyes, looking forward to the other party's answer.

General Liu thought for a while and said decisively.

"Unless Bob significantly increases my appearance fee for my next fight, I will not ask for PPV share."

"Of course the higher the PPV share ratio, the better, and I am not prepared to accept any additional conditions."

"If Bob can't give me everything I want, I'd rather wait a year until the contract period is over."

"Attention! I'm not the one who's anxious now, and I don't have to fight for a boxing championship unification fight. You must understand these two points!"

General Liu is now very confident, with fame, financial resources, and strength, all of which he lacks.

Bob doesn't know what he really thinks, so he has no reason not to speak up once.

If he reveals his bottom line to Harvey and others, they will inevitably have their hands tied during negotiations.

This is not conducive to any good results in the negotiation!
It is better to let them give it a try, control the overall situation by themselves, and then make the final decision.

After hearing General Liu's words, everyone looked at each other in shock.

"John, have you really thought it through?"

Alfonso looked at General Liu with some worry. He was afraid that the other party would be too inflated and make wrong judgments.

"Uncle, don't worry! No matter what the outcome is, I can accept it!"

"I can now earn Bob tens of millions of dollars per game, and he will never give up easily!"

"He is a very shrewd person. He can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal!"

General Liu said with confidence. After these rounds of confrontation, he had vaguely figured out Bob's attitude.

The other party will never give up his shining cash cow.

Since he unified the welterweight titles of the four major organizations, the number of PPVs sold in one game is staggering.

The benefits he has created have exceeded those of non-heavyweight but long-established boxing champions.

This news was revealed to him by the Reuters representative at the celebration dinner.

Now that the time is right, the place is right, and everyone is on his side, it's hard to lose. It just depends on how big a bite of fat he can take.

After everyone heard this shocking news, their faces became better.

"Boss, if you can create so much benefit in every game, it is natural to share PPV."

"If Bob is not willing to give it, there are promotion companies who are willing!"

"This is common in professional boxing, and I am confident that I can win this negotiation."

Terry patted his chest and vowed to General Liu.

General Liu nodded, and everyone started discussing strategies for tomorrow's negotiations.

　Please forgive me, my friends, my friend is getting married today and I went to have a dinner.
