A skyscraper in Manhattan, New York, in the office of rs company. 【First Release】
Matt Higgins pressed the number on the phone expectantly, and made an overseas call.
Suddenly, the phone rang somewhere in the West End of the British capital of Europe on the Atlantic side.
"Hello, Ms. Granowskia!"
As soon as it was connected, Matt Higgins greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Higgins!" Granovskia listened to the phone, "Excuse me, what's the matter?"
"Oh, that's it, Ms. Granovskia, we want to know, this summer, I wonder if your Chelsea have decided on training and warm-up matches?"
Matt Higgins' tone was very polite.
No way, who is asking them to ask others now?
"Summer warm-up match?" Where did Granovskia still have the frustration in front of Abramovich.
In front of people, she is Chelsea's number one, except for Abramovich, even Bruce Buck can't help her.
"Your North American Invitational is still running?"
That said...it almost made Matt Higgins on the opposite side of the microphone almost collapsed.
But after all he held back and nodded, "Do it, definitely do it!"
"Oh!" Granovsky said nothing more.
Matt Higgins knew what was going on and immediately asked: "I wonder if you Chelsea are interested in participating in the tournament we organize again?"
"Uh..." Granovsky thought for a while, "I don't know which teams you plan to invite this year?"
Matt Higgins immediately got his energy and quickly laughed: "We decided to continue to invest this year and invite a group of outstanding European teams. At present, Everton and Milan are identified. Atletico Madrid is being contacted. Plus a few teams in the United States."
"Oh!" Granowski thought for a while, "OK, then you can send a fax, and I will ask our boss again."
"Eh, yes, ok, I'll post it right away!"
After speaking, Matt Higgins did not forget to thank Granovskia.
No way, with the success of the International Champions Cup last year, the North American Invitational organized by rs company is really miserable.
Regardless of attendance or business operations, rs company can be said to be a mess.
This time, had it not been for Matt Higgins and Charlie Stilitano to persuade Stephen Rose in every possible way, I am afraid that the American real estate tycoons would no longer plan to invest.
But even so, they decided to avoid the International Champions Cup schedule.
Who let the huge gap last year left such a deep shadow on them?
After hanging up the phone, Matt Higgins chuckled, "Finally got another giant!"
After speaking, he ticked Chelsea's team name.
Further down, impressively is Atletico Madrid.
This team is the dark horse of La Liga this season. It is currently ranked at the top of the list. Diego Simeone's team has shown the limelight and shocked everyone.
You know, last year Miracle Media can be said to include the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga giants and league champion teams.
But this time, they missed Atletico Madrid alone.
Who could have imagined that this season's Sheets Corps could perform so well, and even now they have beaten Real Madrid and Barcelona, ranking first in La Liga?
This is tantamount to giving rs the opportunity to pick up the fish that missed the net!
And for a sling team like Atlético Madrid, to have the opportunity to participate in the North American Invitational, they must be happy to get together, but that is a few million, or even nearly tens of millions of euros in income, can it? are you happy?
Therefore, in Matt Higgins's view, Atletico Madrid is a solid foundation.
Therefore, he also left the sheet army at the end.
Press the number again and call it directly.
"Hello, this is the Atlético de Madrid Calderon Stadium!" The voice of a woman at the front desk came over the phone.
"Hello, I am American rs company."
The person on the phone was a little surprised, "America? rs company? Is there anything wrong?"
"Oh, that's the case. We plan to invite you to participate in a cup organized by us. Can you help me transfer Mr. Soriano?" Matt Higgins raised his head and narrowed his abdomen this time, Belle Have a face.
In front of Chelsea, he can only admit it, but in front of Atletico Madrid, he has to show off.
"Okay, please wait!" The front desk also looked very polite.
The call was transferred soon, and within a few seconds, it was connected again.
"Hello, who may I ask?"
"Hello, Mr. Soriano, I'm the organizer of the North American Invitational, Matt Higgins of rs company in the United States!"
"Hello, Mr. Higgins, I am not Soriano, he is not here now!"
"Not here?" Matt Higgins was a little surprised.
"Yes, he is on a business trip!"
"Then, who are you?"
"I'm Begiristan, if you have anything, you can tell me."
Bergeristan?
The second in command of Atletico Madrid!
"That's it, Mr. Begiristan. We successfully hosted the North American Invitational last year. It has attracted a lot of attention in North America and the world. Therefore, we plan to continue to expand our influence this year. Atletico Madrid will be in La Liga this season. The league performance is eye-catching, I wonder if you are interested in participating in our tournament?"
Matt Higgins seemed very confident. After introducing his intentions with a smile, he waited for a reply from the other side of the phone.
In the picture of his brain supplement, the person on the other side of the phone should smile and promise to say, yes, we are very happy to participate, and even the competition fee can be cheaper.
But what he didn't expect was that Bezilistan almost didn't even think about it. After listening, he shook his head.
"Sorry, we haven't considered participating in your event for the time being!"
"What?" Matt Higgins was shocked.
That's an income of several million, or even nearly ten million euros.
"Mr. Bergeristan, our appearance fee is very generous, and the venue is in the United States, which can help you expand the influence of Atletico Madrid in North America. In addition..."
"Sorry, Mr. Higgins, we really can't participate!"
"No, if it's the appearance fee or something, we can totally talk about it!"
"It's not about the appearance fee!"
Is not it?
On the contrary, Matt Higgins felt that it must be the appearance fee, and the other party was bargaining.
Even Soriano may not even show up, which is one of their negotiating tricks.
"Okay, Mr. Bergeristan, I can act on behalf of the company and give you the same level of appearance fees as Chelsea and Milan. In this way, Atletico Madrid can get at least around 10 million euros in appearance fees!"
This is already the limit that rs company can open!
I don't know, Begiristan still shook his head, "I'm sorry, Mr. Higgins, it's really not a question of appearance fees."
"Why is that?" Matt Higgins was depressed.
According to his understanding, European teams usually have not finalized summer preparations in February.
Besides, under the temptation of 10 million euros, even if the summer preparation is finalized, it can be completely changed!
"We decided to participate in the Asian Challenge organized by Miracle Media!"
"Asia Challenge?" Matt Higgins was a little stunned.
When did Miracle Media launch such an event?
Are they not organizing the International Champions Cup? Why suddenly there is an Asian Challenge?
Could it be...
Matt Higgins immediately realized a problem, that is, Miracle Media is planning to expand the International Champions Cup!
And the target is locked in the Asian region!
Therefore, in the summer of this year, they launched the Asian Challenge to have a try, to find out the details of the Asian region, and to explore the market for the future expansion of the International Champions Cup and lay the foundation.
"Excuse me, Mr. Begiristan, it is not convenient for Fang to reveal the specific list of invited teams for the Asian Challenge?"
Matt Higgins asked cheeky.
Begeristan on the phone chuckled a few times, "I'm sorry, Mr. Higgins, I can't do anything!"
After speaking, Begeristan hung up the phone.
Matt Higgins stared at the microphone in his hand, and he felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
Miracle Media’s International Champions Cup is about to expand!
The so-called Asian Challenge is definitely just a warm-up. What Miracle Media really needs to do is to expand the army!
And since it is an expansion, at least one more group and four teams are needed!
The teams that participated in the competition last year all signed five-year contracts in one go. Then, this time, besides Atletico Madrid, who are the other three teams participating in the Asian Challenge?
With Yang Huan’s connections in the Premier League and the Premier League’s influence in Asia, there must be one in the Premier League.
Who will the other two teams be?
At the thought of this, Matt Higgins couldn't help feeling a little at a loss, feeling chilly all over.
Miracle Media is so rich and powerful, and now the International Champions Cup is considered to be completed, if further expansion of the army, it will be a heavy blow to the North American Invitational carefully prepared by rs company.
There are only a few top European teams, and the schedule is fixed during that period. If they go to the International Champions Cup, how can they participate in the North American Invitational at the same time?
This is driving us to death!
Let people live?
Matt Higginston panicked!
…………
…………
When Matt Higgins panicked to call Stephen Rose and Charlie Stilitano to report the latest developments and intelligence, Yang Huan smiled and walked into the private of Miami’s top hotel. In the banquet hall.
Here gathers the bosses and core executives of major European teams.
"Hello Master Huan!"
"Mr. Yang Huan, good evening!"
"It's nice to meet you, Master Huan!"
"You are much more handsome than in the picture, Mr. Yang Huan!"
Yang Huan laughed all the way to accept the compliments and greets from everyone, and kept shaking hands and talking with the powerful Europeans under Sun Yue's introduction.
Appearing here are not only the eight giant teams that participated in the International Champions Cup last year, but also the core senior leaders of several teams that participated in the Asian Challenge.
Among them Florentino could not participate, but arranged for his right-hand man Sanchez to come to the scene, and made Sanchez must apologize to Yang Huan.
But Barcelona's Roselle, Manchester United's David Gill, Manchester City's Mubarak and others all came to the scene, giving the miracle media face and Yang Huan's face.
Just kidding, Miracle Media’s International Champions Cup is not only a lot of money for appearances, but also earns enough attention and attention for participating teams. More importantly, it provides them with opportunities for exposure and attracts more sponsors. Join.
Of the eight teams that participated last year, which one did not make a lot of money?
It's like Manchester United signed the most expensive jersey sponsorship ad in history with Chevrolet.
It's scary to think about it!
Because of this, all participating teams generally pay more attention to this event.
Even, they all intend to start their summer preparations around this event.
