(Note: Due to Zhuang Ge’s appearance and Florence’s strong rise, the growth of the world Premier League is far less rapid than that of his previous life. Besides, Sky TV has to set aside enough funds to compete for Serie A broadcasting, so the price offered by Sky TV when the Premier League company renews the broadcasting contract is much lower than that in history.)
That is to say, if the A bid is announced at the price of $200 million, Serie A will get almost twice as much coverage from broadcasters every year as the Premier League!
This is the ability to wait for terror to absorb gold! With so much money to support Serie A teams, what great waves will be set off in the future transfer market!
Abundant funds will enable Serie A clubs to make a higher transfer to the player’s club than other competitors when competing with other league teams for a favorite player, and also give the players a better salary!
A large number of highlevel players will further enhance the popularity of Serie A, and the attraction of Serie A teams to players in the world will further increase, and the increase in popularity and attraction will make TV stations willing to pay more real money and thus form a virtuous circle!
If Serie A develops like this, maybe in a few years, most of the world’s best players will be pocketed by Italian teams with deep pockets and can compete with them. Maybe there will be major league clubs left. With all kinds of onlookers, representatives of other major leagues are more or less full of worries and bitterness when they think about it.
The Bundesliga representatives feel better in their hearts. After the fiasco of the World Cup in France, Germany is now preoccupied with the construction of youth training, and it is impossible to compete with Italy for the first league throne. The pressure on the representatives of Ligue 1 is not great because there is no money for Ligue 1 to compete with Serie A in the matchfixing case in Marseille. The representative of La Liga did not show too much vigilance, because the gap between the rich and the poor is extremely wide, and Spanish football can afford to pay a lot of money to buy people. There have always been a few clubs, and other teams have always maintained their position in the league by picking up bargains.
The most unwilling thing is the Premier League delegates who are bent on restoring the glory of the English team in the past. They are signing a fat contract with TV and cheering. They are dismayed to find that the Premier League, which has been painstakingly managed for many years, has been easily surpassed by Serie A!
This situation makes the English people, who have always thought highly of themselves, feel anxious?
However, no matter how anxious the English people are, today they can watch the Italians make a lot of money in their pockets at this bidding meeting, and they can sit on the side and drool.
Finally, when the host announced that Sky TV would win the Asection TV broadcast for the next three years at a price of 2.7 billion dollars per year, these representatives from the Premier League looked at each other and realized that the price of an Asection was already equal to that of the whole Premier League. How could they accept this extremely shocking reality!
Chapter 72 The end of the conference
In this way, the English people watched the bidding meeting of Serie A broadcast sadly and ended successfully!
In this bidding meeting, I sold the Serie A broadcast in Europe in the next three seasons, and got a huge profit of $142.5 billion in three years! Converted into pounds, it is almost three times that of the second Premier League in the broadcast list!
Holy shit, when did these Italians have such a strong business mind? This is properly going against the rhythm of the sky! This is a heartfelt lament from Premier League representatives after seeing the latest statistics.
After the bidding meeting, the representatives of various TV stations left the headquarters of the Italian Football Association in joy or sadnessthey finished reporting to their respective bosses when they had to hurry now.
However, the representatives of ESPN are not included in these departures, because the purpose of ESPN’s trip to Rome is not to compete with a number of media predators for Serie A broadcast in Europe, but to buy Serie A broadcast in Asia as the exclusive agent of Serie A in Asia!
The former Italian Football Association paid little attention to the broadcast of Serie A outside Europe. It has always been quite generous, unified and lowpriced, packaged and broadcasted to the buying department. Media Seth Company let it handle it by itself. It was not until two years ago that Zhuangge intervened to implement the broadcast reform that it was specially divided into separate pieces for sale.
Especially when these Italian Football Association officials saw that Florence, Parma and other teams earned a lot of money through the Japanese football market, they realized that although the level of Asian football was relatively average, its market potential should never be underestimated!
I don’t see the Japanese Football Association, so that their players can better accept the advanced football ideas from Europe. Almost every year, they wave checkbooks to find teams that are willing to accept Japanese players in dollars. Moreover, in order to squeeze into the European market, Japanese companies are also sponsoring teams to spend a lot of money. After some extremely fierce bargaining, ESPN and the Italian Football Association finally reached an agreement on the broadcast amount and signed a video broadcast contract with a total value of 300 million US dollars for three years.
This means that in the next three seasons, Serie A will receive more than 500 million dollars close to 600 million dollars each season from the TV station that signed the broadcast contract! According to the broadcast distribution agreement signed by the representatives of Serie A clubs, even the team at the bottom of the ten Serie A teams will have a broadcast income of more than 10 million dollars! This figure can already be compared with other major league teams.
The Italian Football Association is very satisfied with this transaction, because never in history has a leading class of the Football Association been able to sign such a big broadcast contract on schedule! After making such eyecatching achievements, President Perot’s hope of winning the first Football Association leadership class has naturally increased greatly, which has tasted the sweetness. Their acceptance of opinions and suggestions from professional leagues and Zhuang singers has been further improved!
ESPN representatives are also satisfied with the smooth conclusion of the transaction. Although the contract with a total price of US$ 300 million for three years is a little exaggerated to outsiders, they professionals know that it is a big bargain to get exclusive coverage of Serie A in Asia at this price.
Not to mention the loyalty of ESPN in Asia, but how many benefits it brings, such as Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other countries, even Hong Kong and Taiwan Province, there will definitely be TV stations taking the initiative to find a door to pay huge sums of money to buy Serie A broadcasts from ESPN, which is another huge wealth, and the name of the exclusive broadcaster in Serie A will also enable ESPN to better expand their business in Asia, thus saving a lot of money that should have been invested in the market.
All these things together, ESPN will definitely get more benefits than they pay!
Although great progress has been made in issuing Serie A in the Asian football market, the Italian Football Association has no idea or plan to go there to pioneer the football market in North and South America and Africa for the time being.
The former is mainly due to the fact that the North American football market is still wild, where people prefer basketball, baseball, ice hockey and rugby, but they are not very enthusiastic about football, the world’s number one sport; Although the football atmosphere in South America is extremely strong, people there are more supportive of local teams, such as Argentina Riverbed and Boca Juniors, Brazil Flamengo, S? o Paulo, da Gama and other teams. European teams that pay more attention to tactical discipline are generally not very coldin their view, it is rare for them to come here once a year, so it is better to watch local teams at home!
Less here, people can also see the exhilarating individual performers’ gorgeous offensive cooperation, rather than the iron and blood defense that South American fans dislike the most.
In Africa, although there are also a few people who love football and have considerable market potential, the poor infrastructure construction and the generally backward economic level in Africa have made the Italian Football Association give up its plan to go to Africa for gold.
Therefore, Zhuang Ge thinks that these markets are few, and he will not promote Serie A to expand these unknown markets until the real arrival of the Internet era and the acceptance of European football styles by fans in various regions.
It is for these reasons that Zhuang Ge didn’t encourage the Italian Football Association to reach out to North and South America and Africa for the time being, but concentrated on expanding the mature European camp and the economic takeoff Asian market, so that Serie A could occupy as much market share as possible in these two continents before others realized that it was expanding overseas markets.
However, this does not mean that Serie A will give up several other markets. There is Zhuang Ge, a traveler here. Even if the Italian Football Association is immersed in the credit book and does not make progress, he will arrest the president of the Football Association from the bed and let him honestly contribute to the development of Italian football.
Aft that bidding meet ended completely, Zhuang Ge took Karin and Groz to the UEFA headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerlandhe was going to participate in the draw ceremony for the last 16 of the European Champions Cup!
Chapter 729 Before drawing lots
Maybe someone will ask if Rebecca Groz and Karin appear beside Zhuang Ge at the same time, will it make the outside world have some bad comments on his private life?
Zhuang Ge certainly won’t ignore this point. On his way to Lausanne, he and Little Groz and Karin confirmed their respective identitiesRebecca naturally appeared as Zhuang Ge’s female companion, while Karin still did her old job, that is, accompanied by Zhuang Ge’s secret.
After all, Italians’ attitude towards private life is clear to Europeans. It’s not Zhuang Ge, who comes from a big family. Which one doesn’t take away a lot of secrets? Otherwise, Berlusconi has been repeatedly exposed by the media, and he can still fight bravely in the Italian political and business circles like nothing happened. It is because of the Italian roots that this is not taken seriously!
People themselves haven’t expressed any opinions on their family life, and you onlookers are fooling around!
Otherwise, Zhuang Ge wouldn’t worry about who would be ignorant of which pot is not which potif someone really grabbed this pigtail and couldn’t enlarge it, then he would take his second daughter to Qatar to find an acquaintance, King Al Thani, and give them three people a Qatari nationality.
You know, Qatar is a country that allows polygamy, so no one can blame anything.
So I arranged these things, and Zhuang Ge took Karin and Rebecca Groz to the scene of the draw ceremony for the top 16 of the Champions League.
The biggest surprise in the Champions League group stage of the season is that Barcelona went out before. This La Liga giant’s performance in its death group can be said to be a mess. Not only was Parma coached by malesani to complete the double play in the home and away two rounds, but it also scored a win and a loss against the German red devils Kaiserslautern, the Premier League, the Blues and Chelsea, regardless of the final two wins and four losses, ranking third in the group, and Parma and Kaiserslautern joined hands to keep out of the Sixteenth Champions League.
The worst thing is that Zhuang Ge told Johansson not to expand the UEFA Cup several years ago to ensure that the quality of the participating clubs is the same as that of the three major European cups and the UEFA Cup, which caused the attraction of the event to slide greatly.
At that time, Johansson and now beckenbauer both adopted Zhuang Ge’s suggestion, so the number of teams participating in the UEFA Cup did not increase explosively as in history, but still adhered to the tworound home and away elimination system as before, which was full of suspense and the appeal of participating teams to attract fans.
It was this change that led to Barcelona’s third place in the Champions League group stage, so he was directly kicked out of the European battlefield this season without the opportunity to participate in the UEFA Cup competition!
This naturally caused strong dissatisfaction in Barcelona. Barcelona President Nunez and Barcelona godfather cruyff temporarily gave up their feud for many years and shook hands and flew to UEFA headquarters in Chen Qing, beckenbauer, hoping that UEFA could give those teams who won the third place in the Champions League group stage a UEFA Cup wild card so that they could continue their campaign in Europe.
To put it bluntly, Barcelona people are very unwilling to be eliminated from the European War, and at the same time they are very worried that this result will shake the morale of the team and have a bad influence on the image of the club. That is why they have made such a suggestion, hoping to show off their arrogance in the UEFA Cup and win back a little face for themselves.
After all, for a giant like Barcelona, it is doubtful whether they will be eliminated from the Champions League group stage or kicked out of the game by a new strong team like Parma (Parma can not be called a strong team instead of a giant because of the heavyweight champion, especially the league champion) and a downandout giant like Kaiserslautern.
Beckenbauer people are hesitant about this. After all, modifying the scheduled schedule in the middle of the season will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the teams. However, once teams like Barcelona, which have great appeal among fans, qualify for the UEFA Cup, their seating capacity and appeal to fans will definitely increase greatly.
So when the football emperor learned that Zhuang Ge had arrived in Lausanne, he was in a tangled state. beckenbauer was overjoyed and quickly called Zhuang Ge and ordered him to be invited to UEFA headquarters.
Beckenbauer knew that the Fiorentina president was not his staff and Johansson’s staff, but in the past, it was proved that this talented young man was definitely a staunch supporter of him and Johansson.
