Chapter 447： 90 million euros

The American "Forbes" magazine published an investigation report.

They ranked the annual income of global athletes this year.

Most of the tops in this list are elites in their respective fields.

For example, LeBron James in basketball, Roger Federer in tennis, Cam Newton in American football, Michaelson in golf, Hamilton in F1 and boxer Mayweather.

Mayweather, the 16th-ranked American boxer in this list, had an annual income of 35.2 million euros in 2016.

It is roughly the same as Tencent's sponsorship contract for Chu Ge.

Of course, as Mayweather, the gold king of sports, he only had 16 years because there was no competition, so his income fell. In 2015, Mayweather ’s annual income reached 193 million pounds, far exceeding Ronaldo at the time, and was a profitable star in the world sports world.

However, Mayweather is high in game income, not much endorsement contract revenue.

Chu Ge ranks first in this Fox Global Athlete's annual income list.

This is the first time for China Sports Stars and even Asian Sports Stars to reach the top of this ranking!

According to Forbes statistics, Chu Ge's 2016 annual income reached an astonishing 90 million euros.

It surpassed the second-ranked Ronaldo (70.5 million euros) and the third-ranked Barcelona star Messi (65.2 million euros).

Interestingly, three football players are ranked in the top three at the same time, and among these three, Chu Ge ranks first in total income, and the salary is the lowest.

in fact.

Manchester United ’s salary for Chu Ge is not low.

With a weekly salary of 200,000 pounds, there are only a dozen people who surpass Chu Ge in the current Premier League.

The annual salary equivalent to about 14 million euros before tax is also quite high in the world football rankings.

However, Ronaldo and Messi's annual pre-tax salary exceeds 40 million euros.

Compared with them, Chu Ge's salary income is slightly lower.

This also shows that Chu Ge still has a lot of room for improvement in terms of salary and income.

In the contract signed between Chu Ge and Manchester United, there is a maximum salary clause.

As long as Chu Ge triggered the activation condition, his weekly salary would immediately rise from 200,000 pounds to 290,000 pounds, an increase of 45%.

By then, his pre-tax annual salary will exceed 20 million euros.

To activate this top salary clause, Chu Ge will need to reach or exceed 25 league goals and assists this season.

So far, the Premier League this season has been 12 rounds.

In addition to one game missing due to injury, Chu Ge started in the remaining eleven rounds of the league, scoring 11 goals in total, in addition to 5 assists.

In the 38-round league, less than one-third of the schedule, Chu Ge has already scored 16 goals and assists.

It is only 9 points away from the 25 agreed on the maximum salary clause!

As long as there are 9 more offenses or assists, Chu Ge will activate the maximum salary clause in the contract. By then, his weekly salary will not only become the highest in Manchester United, but also in the top three in the entire Premier League.

It is said that Tottenham Hotspur's top star Harry Kane is about to renew the contract with the club.

According to British media reports, after renewal, Kane's weekly salary will reach 300,000 pounds, which is the top salary of the Premier League.

If Kane really got a weekly salary of 300,000 pounds, it would be a good thing for Chu Ge.

As long as he continues to play steadily and performs better than Kane, the team will naturally not treat him badly.

The Premier League is richer than the United Kingdom, and Manchester United has never been empty.

In the Fox Global Athlete Revenue Ranking.

Compared with Ronaldo and Messi, two long-time famous arrogants, Chu Ge's income from commercial endorsement contracts is far more than the sum of the two, despite his low income.

Ronaldo's current annual revenue for commercial endorsements is 25.6 million euros.

Slightly higher than the old rival Messi.

The two superstars add up to an endorsement revenue of no more than 50 million euros.

Chu Ge alone reached 76 million euros.

Among them, naturally I want to thank Tencent's father.

As soon as the boss Ma shot, Chu Ge immediately reached the top. This is the charm of the Chinese market!

of course.

Nike (12 million), Pepsi (8 million), KFC (5 million), Huawei Communications (4 million), etc., these big guys' contributions are not small.

The amount of sponsorship of Chu Ge and Nike, although currently maintained at a minimum of 12 million euros.

But like Manchester United's contract, as long as Chu Ge meets certain conditions, he can get up to 40 million euros per year from Nike.

If you can really get 40 million a year from Nike, Chu Ge ’s annual income will exceed 100 million euros!

If the salary rises again, his income can be even higher.

Not to mention Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, even if the annual incomes of these two big brothers add up, they ca n’t keep up with Chu Ge alone!

and.

According to Jean Reno.

In addition to Tencent, which has already finalized the contract, there is also a game that also finds Chu Ge.

That is the famous game company, FIFA football under the American EA, the absolute king in the football game world.

Although it was once (ten years) hit by Konami's live football, FIFA's perfect counterattack not only regained the lost market share due to the pursuit of real football concepts, respect for copyright, and the krypton gold card system At the same time, it has also become the thickest cash cow under EA.

Americans are always willing to invest in doing business.

Like Nike, EA also likes to find their spokesperson in the football field.

For this reason, they sometimes even pay a lot of money.

People like Ronaldo, Messi, Ronaldo, Torres and others have all made FIFA football cover stars. For games sold in different regions, EA sometimes even looks for one of the most well-known local stars as the endorsement star in the region.

As the most popular player in the world of football, at the same time, the commercial value of the new generation of super-popular idol star, Chu Ge, is naturally targeted by EA very early.

Now, they think it is a suitable time to sign a contract with Chu Ge.

In fact, it is also EA Football.

When Tencent signed a contract with Chu Ge, they once tried to sign an exclusive endorsement agreement with Chu Ge in the gaming field.

Once this agreement is signed, it will be indiscriminately exclusive.

All game manufacturers, as long as they want to sign a contract with Chu Ge, they can't get around Tencent.

but.

Due to previous communication with EA executives, Su Qingqing rejected Tencent's proposal.

If you want to sign an exclusive endorsement contract with Chu Ge in the entire game field ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Tencent needs to spend a higher amount.

Tencent didn't have much opinion on spending more money, but considering that it seemed unnecessary, it didn't insist.

This gave EA a chance.

Uncle Ma's game library currently does not have a copycat FIFA football, and there is no football game in the game endorsement list they signed with Chu Ge, so EA still has the opportunity to sign Chu Ge.

In case the two collaborate in the future, it is just that they can share a spokesperson ...

...

After signing these three contracts, Rello left happily.

He planned to go to Los Angeles at public expense to talk about cooperation with EA.

Making money makes him happy.

Shortly after Renault left, Chu Ge's house welcomed a new guest.
