In the hotel, Xiao Yong and De La Hoya sat opposite each other.
He looked at Hoya, frowned and asked: "Mr. Hoya, I would like to ask, if I join your agency, what can you bring to me?"
Hoya said: "You have to know that my intelligence ability is very strong, just like I know that you will stay in this hotel today, I know those guys better than you, whether it is Guan Huashan or Dana Bai, both of them They are essentially the same type of people. If you want to get the benefits you deserve from them, you need someone to communicate with them. Not only that, if you can really make a name for yourself, I can even help you operate it. Cross-border fights, you should know that in today's boxing world, the salary of UFC fighters is far less than that of boxers. If you want to make big money, you need my help. And I can also bring you a lot Business Resources.”
The whole article is about money, because money is very important to everyone.
Who doesn’t need money in life? Who despises having too much money?
If Xiao Yong can earn more by playing games, he definitely doesn’t want to earn less!
Xiao Yong thought for a moment and said: "But I already have a management company now. You should know that I am still an actor and my management contract has been signed with them."
De La Hoya smiled and said: "I have considered this matter. We can sign terms among three parties. First of all, the income from all fighting agency contracts must belong to me, including the share of various events. As for ordinary advertising, in China, All economic contracts and revenue sharing belong to them, but outside of China, all brokerage contract revenue sharing belongs to me. If there are both involved, then we will share it equally."
Hoya's eyes are not in China.
What he took a fancy to was the potential shown by Xiao Yong.
In De La Hoya's eyes, Xiao Yong may become the Pacquiao of MMA!
If Xiao Yong can reach this point, the money he can make in the future will be immeasurable!
"What's the share?"
Xiao Yong asked seriously, this is very important.
"Twenty percent!" De La Hoya opened a number!
Xiao Yong shook his head and said: "It's too high. You have to know that my share with domestic brokerage companies is only 10%?"
Hearing this number, De La Hoya also shook his head: "No, ten percent is too low."
The two parties bargained again and finally determined that Hoya's share was 17%!
Obviously, Xiao Yong's ferocity cannot gain an advantage in this negotiation. De La Hoya was also a boxing champion and has an extremely determined mind.
However, the two parties also reached a preliminary intention.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yong contacted Bai Yiyi.
When Bai Yiyi received the news, everyone was shocked.
Xiao Yong wants to sign with another agency?
You know, whether you are a fighting star or an actor, advertising revenue is a huge part of it!
It is absolutely impossible for the brokerage company to let go. If everyone signs this, there will definitely be conflicts!
Faced with her questions, Xiao Yong told Hoya exactly what he proposed.
After Bai Yiyi thought about it, she still couldn't make up her mind, or she didn't dare to make the decision, so she immediately told Gao Tianmei about the matter.
In the office, Gao Tianmei listened to Bai Yiyi's report.
He frowned and fell into deep thought.
In fact, Xiao Yong has already brought them a lot of surprises.
From the contract with Xiao Yong, you will definitely make money without losing any money!
But suddenly, it was said that someone wanted to take a share of the pie, one can imagine how he felt.
But Gao Tianmei also knows that they do not have the resources related to boxers, and they must not be able to compete with Hoya in this regard.
"In your contact during this time, which one do you think Xiao Yong attaches more importance to: acting, boxing or making money?" Gao Tianmei asked Bai Yiyi.
Bai Yiyi thought for a while and said: "Should we still box? That guy has to train every day, and all announcements must be made to make way for boxing time. Anyone who has a conflict in time will reject them! As for making money.
..It should not be as important as boxing. He currently refuses to accept many advertisements, goods and acupoint visits. If he really wants money, with his current enthusiasm, he can concentrate on commercial activities, and his income may increase.
Ten times more!"
Gao Tianmei sighed: "Then I have no choice but to agree."
"Why?" Bai Yiyi was confused.
Gao Tianmei explained: "Because we don't have the resources for fighting. If we don't give way now, based on the contract Xiao Yong signed with us, he will definitely terminate the contract with us. By then, won't he even be able to drink the soup?"
Gao Tianmei thought for a while and then said: "I'll leave this matter to you. Just follow what Xiao Yong said. Anyway, to a certain extent, it's not a bad thing for us!"
Of course it's not a bad thing. If Xiao Yong really makes a name for himself internationally, it will also be a boost to domestic resources. And if he can get the endorsement of an internationally renowned brand, then the other party will definitely not give up on China.
market.
At that time, they can also share a cup.
No matter how you look at it, there is no need to break up!
For businessmen, making money is the first priority.
So, Bai Yiyi flew to the capital overnight, and the three parties agreed to sign a brokerage contract.
Xiao Yong also officially joined Golden Boy De La Hoya's agency.
Guan Huashan was also in the capital of China at this time, and he also appeared in Xiao Yong's teaching program this time.
He is learning everything from Dana White and trying to expand his influence as much as possible instead of being a person in power behind the scenes.
"It's really a headache to arrange opponents. I hope that after this video is broadcast, Xiao Yong's game can be arranged as soon as possible. It is best to continue this popularity and let him go higher and higher!"
Guan Huashan murmured to himself.
"Also...that guy only has one game left in his contract. The next contract must be signed for at least fifteen games...the guaranteed appearance fee is 50,000 US dollars. If he wins the championship, it will be tripled. This way
That should be almost it.”
Guan Huashan thought seriously.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
He opened the door and saw Hoya standing at the door.
Unlike Xiao Yong, Guan Huashan knows De La Hoya.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and felt a bad feeling in his heart.
In the eyes of his agents, he is a vampire! In his eyes, these agents are also vampires.
This is reality. Anyone who wants to take money out of the other party's pocket will be regarded as a vampire by the other party!
"Mr. Hoya, are you here to see me?" Guan Huashan asked softly.
Hoya smiled and stretched out his hand: "Let me introduce myself, I am Xiao Yong's agent now!"
Hearing this, Guan Huashan's heart skipped a beat!
He forced a smile, shook hands with Hoya, and then let Hoya into the room.
Hoya looked around, came to sit on the sofa, and said with a smile: "This is bigger than Xiao Yong's room."
Obviously, there are some hidden meanings in these words.
Guan Huashan also sat down, ignored Hoya's words, and asked directly: "I wonder what Mr. Hoya is here for today?"
De La Hoya looked at Guan Huashan seriously and said: "Guan, I hope to make some negotiations on Xiao Yong's last game contract and subsequent contracts!"
Sure enough!
This guy is really up to no good!
Guan Huashan was unhappy, but he still kept a smile on his face and said, "Mr. Hoya, please speak!"
"First of all, regarding the appearance fee of the last game contract, Mr. Guan didn't realize that Xiao Yong's current fee is too low? Ten thousand US dollars, the price of this guaranteed appearance fee, is really not in line with his current status as ONE lightweight.
Ranking fifteenth, isn’t it?”
Guan Huashan shook his head slightly and said, "This is stipulated in the contract."
Hoya showed a trace of disdain on his face!
Contract? Of course the contract is valid, but so what.
There is only one game left in the contract between the two parties!
"Mr. Guan, as far as I know, ONE made a lot of money from the two games that Xiao Yong participated in. The number of online viewers in China for the first game increased nearly ten times compared to the previous game.
After this game, your company’s sponsorship advertising fees tripled!
Moreover, in Kimchi Country, the number of viewers for this game also doubled that of the previous event. The second game was held in Kimchi Country. The previous best ticket sales record of ONE in Kimchi Country was 32,544! But this time, the ticket sales were close to 7
Ten thousand! At the same time, the number of viewers in China has further increased. It is said that your company’s current advertising fees have also been raised again. Taken together, Xiao Yong has created at least tens of millions of dollars in value for ONE’s revenue. You
Do you think ten thousand US dollars is appropriate?"
Guan Huashan looked at Hoya seriously and said in a deep voice: "But the contract has been signed! This cannot be changed!"
He has his toughness. If everyone can ignore the contract, how should he manage?
At this time, Hoya was not angry when he heard Guan Huashan's refusal. Instead, he continued to smile and said: "Since Mr. Guan refuses to change, I have nothing to say. We can talk about the next contract!"
In fact, De La Hoya also knew that Guan Huashan would not agree to change the contract.
But he still wanted to say it.
Just to be clear, Guan Huashan has greatly squeezed Xiao Yong's value at this time!
And he must prepare to make up for it in the next contract!
Guan Huashan also knew that the highlight was coming!
The issue of contract renewal is what he has been worried about.
Guan Huashan said solemnly: "We have initially made a plan to provide Xiao Yong with a 15-game contract. As for the appearance fee, it will rise to 50,000 US dollars. If he reaches the championship game, it will rise to 150,000 US dollars. He will defend the title for two years.
After the market, it will rise to 300,000 US dollars!"
This title defense clause was added by Guan Huashan after meeting De La Hoya.
While listening to him, De La Hoya took out a cigar, lit it slowly, took a puff, casually leaned on the sofa, and said with a smile: "Fifteen games! Five games a year, and it will take three years! One
Championship-level players only compete once or twice a year. If I sign this kind of contract with you, Xiao will probably fire me. You don’t want to see me lose my job, right?"
unemployment?
I want to see you die!
Guan Huashan cursed in his heart!
"Ten games, then ten games!" Guan Huashan took a step back.
But Hoya was not satisfied. He leaned forward slightly and his eyes became sharp.
"Five games! Only sign for five games! And you must guarantee that if Xiao can win consecutively, he will get the right to challenge for the championship within three games!"
Guan Huashan stared at Hoya in front of him.
He knew very well that signing for only five games meant that Xiao Yong had more flexible variables.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Mr. De La Hoya is not afraid that Xiao Yong will lose the game? The long-term contract is very stable."
This is true. Some people, after showing their worth, will choose to sign a long-term contract.
Because the advantage of a long-term contract is that if you fail, you will still have money to get and games to play.
Unfortunately, De La Hoya didn't think there would be any problems with Xiao Yong. He joked in a weird voice: "Aren't I thinking about Mr. Guan? Xiao Yong has a long-term contract. If he can't get it, won't Mr. Guan suffer a big loss? Then
But it’s hundreds of thousands of dollars!”
His tone was full of teasing, and he obviously disliked the fact that the contract offered by Guan Huashan was too small!
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
But this is why the boss doesn't like the agent.
Because these guys won't be polite to him.
Although it's not like pointing your nose and yelling, but teasing and joking, no one would dare to do it.
Seeing Guan Huashan fall into silence, he was unwilling to let go.
De La Hoya stood up and said: "Since Mr. Guan doesn't want to talk now, I'll take my leave first. It just so happens that Dana is coming to China in the past two days. I think maybe I can talk to him! A man who can play two games will
The guy who helped ONE make tens of millions of dollars in revenue must be very interested!"
Hearing the name Dana, Guan Huashan raised his eyebrows!
Dana is Dana White!
This guy's real name is Dana White.
Because the homophone of Dana is Dana.
White also means white.
So everyone often calls him Dana White!
Hoya's words are, on the one hand, threatening Guan Huashan, and on the other hand, they are also pointing out the value of Xiao Yong!
Sure enough, Guan Huashan spoke!
"Mr. De La Hoya, let's continue talking. I think five games are okay!" Guan Huashan knew that he couldn't give in!
De La Hoya sat down again, and this time he chose a direct showdown: "The five-game contract, in a winning streak, must ensure that Xiao Yong gets the right to challenge for the championship within three games! At the same time, for the appearance fee you offered,
We can accept it, but I need additional additional terms. We want the revenue sharing of the Huaxia Live Broadcasting Platform! And we need advertising revenue!"
When Guan Huashan heard that he agreed to the appearance fee, his heart just fell to the ground, but he never expected that De La Hoya would make such a request!
"Impossible!" He jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, his face flushed with anger and said: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! It is impossible for me to give Xiao Yong a share of the live broadcast platform and advertising revenue!
"
Guan Huashan said sternly: "So far, no boxer has received this kind of contract from ONE!"
De La Hoya looked at him without showing any signs of weakness and said in a deep voice: "No one got it, but it doesn't mean Xiao Yong can't get it! UFC can give fighters a share of PPV, so why can't Xiao Yong get a share of ONE's live broadcast platform?"
Guan Huashan said excitedly: "You have to know who are the people who can get PPV share in UFC? They are all championship-level boxers. Xiao Yong has not won the ONE championship yet. He is just a fifteenth-ranked fighter.
guy!"
Guan Huashan showed no sign of weakness. He would rather give Xiao Yong an extra US$50,000 in appearance fees than pay a share of the smart platform's fees!
De La Hoya sneered: "Mr. Guan, you have to understand! The biggest factor in getting PPV shares is never the championship! It's the PPV sales. If a boxer who can't make it into the rankings can sell millions of PPVs, Bai Da
He would lick his butt and give him a PPV share! Xiao Yong has increased the revenue of China's domestic live broadcast platform by more than ten times. What's wrong with taking a share of the live broadcast fee? Before him, no boxer has done this kind of thing. All of this
, Xiao Yong deserves it all!"
"No need to talk! There is absolutely no way I can agree to this!"
"Then I'll say goodbye!"
Hoya didn't do any ink, just got up and left!
After Hoya left, Guan Huashan looked calm and sat back on the sofa. He found the company's latest report!
It is undeniable that Xiao Yong’s contribution to the overall China Live Broadcasting Platform is unquestionable.
Because they have purchased memberships, some people will naturally go and watch other events!
Originally, the number of people watching online was no more than a dozen or two hundred thousand, but now it has soared to three or four hundred thousand.
When there are other Chinese players competing, sometimes it can even reach 700,000 to 800,000!
Although it is far less than the number of spectators for Xiao Yong's game, it is completely different from before.
And this is just two games played by Xiao Yong!
Hoya left Guan Huashan's room and went directly to Xiao Yong's room.
He had already communicated the conditions to Guan Huashan with Xiao Yong before.
As soon as he walked in, Xiao Yong asked curiously: "Guan Huashan agreed?"
Hoya said with a relaxed smile on his face: "It's not that easy. He needs time to think about it. Dana White should be coming soon in the past few days. According to the news I received, that guy is very interested in you! I
Just in time to chat with him!”
Obviously, this is De La Hoya trying to put pressure on Guan Huashan.
Xiao Yong frowned and said, "Wouldn't it be better if I just switch to UFC?"
De La Hoya shook his head and said: "You are now moving to UFC. With your first contract, it is difficult to get favorable conditions from Dana White! You have too little say. We must first get a franchise contract from ONE."
, and show your strength by scoring points, and then talk to Dana White to feel confident, otherwise once you are restricted by the UFC, you will have to look at Dana White’s face to do anything in the future.”
"I know that going to UFC is a necessary step in your career, but you have to be particular about how and when to go. If you give up all your rights to join UFC, you will regret it in the end! You don't want to
Are you being exploited as a fool?"
After listening to Hoya's words, Xiao Yong fell into deep thought.
His goal has always been the UFC.
But really speaking, as De La Hoya said, what if he was treated like a fool and exploited just to join the UFC? It doesn’t seem possible, that would be too frustrating!
People always have to fight for the benefits they deserve.
And De La Hoya's job is to maximize Xiao Yong's interests in these tournaments.
This is also the reality. A boxer can obviously help the event make a lot of money, but only gets a small part of it, and no one will be happy.
