Everyone was very happy about this trip to Cote d'Ivoire. Everyone got what they should get.
List is because he has reached a cooperation agreement with Marc Coulou of Cote d'Ivoire. As long as List has a stable market in the future, he can introduce a large number of players from Cote d'Ivoire. At that time, he will be an intermediary and introduce the players from Cote d'Ivoire one by one.
If you go to the top European leagues, the profits will definitely be very high.
In addition, Riester won four players during this trip. And all four players are very talented players, and their future achievements will definitely be outstanding. This trip also earned at least 20 million US dollars. And the future is hidden.
The income from sex is absolutely immeasurable.
Pavel Merkley is also very happy. Because after this trip, he not only received an appearance fee of 200,000 US dollars, but Pavel Merkley also signed a series of cooperation agreements with the Football Association of Côte d'Ivoire.
Czech football surpasses Côte d’Ivoire. Because Côte d’Ivoire hopes to get help from the Czech Football Association. Of course, the help cannot be free. During this kind of exchange, the Czech Football Association will definitely make money. This is all their own merit. I will pursue the Czech Republic in the future.
When you are the top player in football, you always need hard results.
The Football Association of Côte d'Ivoire is also happy. Because this time the Czech Republic came over, it stimulated the football market in Côte d'Ivoire. The important thing is that Puma gave the Football Association of Côte d'Ivoire a lot of face with its actions. Moreover, it has a cooperation agreement with Czech football. The Football Association of Côte d'Ivoire believes that the football in Côte d'Ivoire is very good.
It will soon become a world-class team.
Needless to say, Puma. Jochen Leitz seems to have spent a lot of money this time, and also gave the Czech national team an appearance fee of 200,000 US dollars. But overall, it is a complete profit. This time Puma has reached out to Cote d'Ivoire.
The friendly match between the national team and the Czech national team has made many African teams envious. This influence is very large.
The Puma brand was an instant hit in Africa. It gave Jochen Leitz a very good start for his next plan. Puma’s ambitions for the African continent are not just Cote d’Ivoire, he hopes to cover the entire Africa. The first step is very
Well, there are already football associations in some African countries hoping to get sponsorship from Puma.
Anyway, everyone is happy with this trip to Cote d'Ivoire. If some people are dissatisfied, it is the Czech national team. They all come to play friendly matches during the league break and international match days. Many European teams also play national team matches.
, but they were all friendly matches within Europe. The Czech national team went to Africa to compete, which made their bodies very tired.
"Jochen, are you satisfied?"
"It's okay."
As the CEO of Puma, Jochen Leitz originally did not need to follow the team like this, but because Africa has become the most important market for Puma in the next step, he went to Cote d'Ivoire to see the African market in person.
"Watching this friendly match, I suddenly had an idea. I wonder if I should take it seriously?"
"Tell me, what should you and I have to discuss?" Jochen Leitz smiled and nodded. Jochen Leitz is a very top operator, but in his eyes, Lister is a very unqualified person.
Company manager. In the eyes of Jochen Leitz, the reason why List's company can develop is not because of List's strong business ability, but because of List's strong professional ability in football. In terms of business ability, List is
A complete layman.
However, although Jochen Leitz sneered at Lister's management ability, Jochen Leitz was very interested in some of the wild suggestions that Lister often made. Because although many of the suggestions seemed absurd, they were actually
But Jochen Leitz was able to find the one that suited him best among these absurd suggestions.
"Look, Puma has facilitated a friendly match between the Czech national team and the Cote d'Ivoire national team, which has immediately opened up your Puma's influence in Africa. If you can invite two well-known European teams to compete in China, then the competition will be
If it is sponsored by your Puma, wouldn't it also make your Puma famous?"
This was what Lister thought of while watching this warm-up match. It was just an immature idea of Lister's. But as soon as Lister's words came out, Jochen Leitz's face immediately became serious. Jochen Leitz's face turned serious.
Leitz was different from Lister. Lister just expressed his thoughts casually. But Jochen Letz immediately analyzed the possibility of this matter in his mind. So he slowly said: "Lister, you
Do you know something about Chinese football?"
"Of course. I believe that no one in the current European football world understands Chinese football better than me."
"So tell me, which league and club are the most influential in China?"
Lister was stunned for a moment when he heard this question from Jochen Leitz. Among the most influential leagues and the most popular clubs in China, which one would it be? Lister couldn't tell clearly for a while. So, which one would it be?
He could only think carefully and said: "Jochen, I don't know the details. But the most influential one in China is definitely Serie A, because the TV station that covers the whole country is their national TV station, and the national TV station sports
The channel has been broadcasting Serie A for many years. It is estimated that 60 to 70% or more of the current fans in China are fans of Serie A. There are countless clubs such as Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, Lazio, Roma, and Fiorentina in China.
fan."
"I know that in 1994, Sampdoria from Serie A came to China. At that time, Sampdoria received huge cheers in China, and they received unanimous support from the fans no matter where they went. The scene was really
…, Serie A’s influence in China is definitely No. 1.”
"Of course, if we talk about Guangdong, Guangdong is the most developed province in China, with a population of 80 million. The Premier League should be more influential there, and there are a lot of fans like Manchester United. Because in places like Hong Kong, the Premier League is broadcast
It’s been many years.”
Jochen Leitz nodded.
"Rister, your idea is very innovative. I think it can be implemented."
"You think so too."
Lister was very happy to hear that Jochen Leitz agreed with his idea. Lister is an ordinary person, and he was very excited to have a Puma CEO like Jochen Leitz agree with his idea.
"Rister, but you should know. This kind of thing is not that easy. You first have to convince at least one strong European team, and it has to be a strong team with a certain influence. Furthermore, you have to go to China to make contacts.
How will the money be paid? What about the venue? What form will the tickets take? How will they be broadcast? How will they be advertised?"
Lister was just talking about an idea, while Jochen Leitz was thinking about how to turn it into reality. Listening to Jochen Letz's words, Lister scratched the back of his head. It was true that his idea was too simple, like
Real Madrid visited China for a commercial match, and there were more than one or two people working behind the scenes.
From Real Madrid Club to domestic clubs, from the sports company of Real Madrid to the sports company hosted by China. And since it is a commercial competition, how to contact a lot of sponsors is a big project.
"Haha, it seems that I thought too simply."
"No, Lister, your idea is very good. How about we cooperate and implement this idea?"
Jochen Leitz is an activist. Although such things are certainly tedious, there is nothing that is not tedious. "Next year is the World Cup year, and there is no time to go to China. Let's put the time in 1999, and there is still one and a half years left.
It's enough for us to operate. As you said, we invite a strong team from Serie A and a strong team from the Premier League. Then let them play games. I believe Chinese fans will be very interested."
List nodded. Not only is he interested, if he can really invite the strong teams in Serie A and the Premier League at this time, and carry out a certain amount of publicity, he will definitely be hugely popular. It will not even be less enthusiastic than the future Real Madrid Galacticos.
