With such a big contract, Bai Yiyi didn't dare to make the decision easily.
I called Xiao Yong immediately.
"Hey, Xiao Yong, the other party has proposed additional gambling terms! They hope that you can win the UFC championship within three years, otherwise your share clause will be lifted! But if you can win the UFC championship, then
The sharing terms will continue forever and be increased to 50%!”
Listening to Bai Yiyi's report, Xiao Yong thought for a moment and said, "Agree! There is no problem with this clause!"
After hanging up the phone, Zheng Tiequan stepped forward and said with a smile: "You are very confident!"
"Haha! Because I'm really strong, coach, what do you think?" Xiao Yong asked with a smirk.
Zheng Tiequan curled his lips. Since he was knocked down by this guy last time, it has been difficult for him to make a clear assessment of Xiao Yong's strength.
In other words, the strength of top boxers is actually difficult to measure.
Because all top boxers have the possibility of beating each other.
Performance, ideas, application of techniques and tactics during the game, and even luck may all affect the direction of the game.
Without a real fight, it is difficult to determine the outcome.
It is precisely because of this that the game is even more suspenseful!
This is just like the Champions League. Each team is the king of its own field. No one knows which team is stronger unless they come out to compete for a while.
Xiao Yong is very confident in himself!
He has talent, a system, and a winning streak all the way. Why can't he win the UFC championship in three years?
Xiao Yong's eyes were full of ambition!
That's the kind of person he is, not satisfied.
For many people, after they have achieved results, they will stay in one place.
Keep making profits!
But Xiao Yong doesn't want to be like this. After he has achieved results, he still wants greater results!
So for him, ONE now is a cage!
The cage that confines him!
He must leave.
In other words, ONE was not Xiao Yong’s goal from the beginning, UFE was just a springboard.
After receiving Xiao Yong's affirmative reply, Bai Yiyi sat back at the negotiation table and said with a smile: "Xiao Yong has already agreed. This condition is acceptable, but we have an additional requirement!"
The other side’s negotiator’s heart sank!
What does it mean?
Any additional requirements?
You know, when Bai Yiyi mentioned the request now, his liver trembled a little. After all, this request might be just how much money!
But when Bai Yiyi finished her request, the Anda company representative was stunned.
He looked at Bai Yiyi doubtfully, and asked with some uncertainty: "Is this it?"
"That's it!" Bai Yiyi nodded, extremely sure!
"That's no problem! It's not a big deal!"
A few days later, Xiao Yong and Anda officially announced!
The two parties signed a big contract that exceeded everyone’s imagination!
In China, it is extremely rare to get an endorsement fee of 80 million yuan a year!
Or never!
More than that!
The Yama series has been officially renamed—Xiao Yong’s Yama Era!
An exclusive sub-brand for Xiao Yong!
And new products will be designed around the Ten Palaces of Yama!
Xiao Yong can own 50% of the brand revenue!
As soon as this contract came out, many people thought Anda was crazy!
Before this, no athlete or spokesperson could get a contract of this level!
Even though the sales of the Yama series are good!
But is Xiao Yong really worth this contract?
On the other hand, the one with the most intense reaction was De La Hoya!
When Hoya learned the news, he was completely excited.
He ran directly to China and contacted Bai Yiyi and Xiao Yong!
Need to discuss contract matters!
Why is this?
Because in De La Hoya's view, Xiao Yong's sports brand endorsements are an important part of his career income!
What he originally thought was to wait until Xiao Yong's contract expires to find brands from abroad for Xiao Yong to endorse.
Because according to what was discussed before, Xiao Yong’s endorsement abroad will belong to him, and his domestic endorsement will belong to Tianmei Company!
But Xiao Yong signed this contract with Anda Yi.
In De La Hoya's view, this is a lifetime contract.
In other words, as long as Xiao Yong wins the UFC championship, this contract will last forever!
This is a big piece of cake!
If Xiao Yong wants to sign such a sharing agreement with Nike, it will be almost impossible.
In the room, Hoya looked at the two of them seriously and said in a deep voice: "Xiao! You signed Anda's contract. The terms of this contract are very good. Bai is a very capable agent."
"Then, why are you so excited? This contract has nothing to do with you!" Bai Yiyi said vigilantly. According to the previous agreement, the contract signed in China has nothing to do with Hoya!
Hoya sneered and said: "Why doesn't it matter? Although this contract was signed in China, if Xiao Yong's Yan Luo brand is sold abroad, according to the agreement, I have the right to share! I can get 100% of your share.
Fifty percent! That’s five percent of the total share!”
"Anda doesn't have much market share abroad!" Bai Yiyi sneered.
Hoya looked at Xiao Yong: "If you don't have it now, it doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. Xiao, from now on you must try your best to promote your Yama brand! If we open up foreign markets, our interests will be great!"
Hoya warned Xiao Yong.
"You came all the way here just to tell me about this?" Xiao Yong couldn't believe it!
"That's right!" De La Hoya said with a matter-of-fact face: "Your current sports brand has been bound to Antai. If you don't promote it, how will people outside China know about it? I have thought about it, and I must pay close attention in the future.
I’ll give you every opportunity to promote your sub-brand! I’ll forward your cross-dressing video abroad immediately!”
Xiao Yong: "...."
This guy is too realistic, right?
In fact, it is not Hoya's reality, but that he is too aware of the interests involved.
Taking Nike as an example, the Jordan brand, Mr. Joe’s annual share is about 130 million U.S. dollars. What a concept!
If Xiao Yong's Yama series can reach this level, Huo Yaguang will earn millions of dollars a year!
The most important thing is that this is a lifetime contract, which means that as long as the brand sells well, you will get more money as inflation and sales increase!
Money is something that cannot be spent.
De La Hoya is actually very rich. This guy's net worth is about 200 million U.S. dollars. However, excluding luxury houses, luxury cars, and company assets, it is actually unrealistic to say that he is always squandering money.
Who would mind having too much money?
Half a month after Antai signed the contract with Xiao Yong, Antai announced another piece of news!
Antai will launch a fighting support plan and will sponsor events. The sponsored event is Yang Lele's Tenglong Jue. Trials will be held in the name of regions in eight domestic cities, and then regional competitions will be held!
This is the request made by Xiao Yong and Anda.
In fact, Xiao Yong paid for the sponsorship himself, while Anda sponsored in name only.
The purpose of this is to enhance the reputation of the event and to increase the popularity of the event!
It is not easy to expand the popularity of the event just by relying on Yang Lele.
It’s not easy for Xiao Yong to publicize, so this time, he is also using Anda’s reputation to do this!
As Antai, it is just a name, and there is no need to actually pay. At the same time, this is also a good thing to establish a brand image, and there is no reason to refuse it.
There is no doubt that after this operation, the Tenglong Jue event has been known to many people!
When Yang Lele learned about this from Xiao Yong, she was extremely happy.
Just hold Xiao Yong in your arms!
"Hey! Will it be easier for me to sell tickets in the future?"
Looking at the extremely excited Yang Lele, Xiao Yong shook his head and said: "Don't be too optimistic. This can only make the event somewhat famous, but it's hard to say what the real effect will be. You can just sell tickets like that, from 500 to 1,000 people."
venues, and then we will conduct a free live broadcast online and let the public know as much as possible first. I will let Tang Xiuyi help you attract traffic."
Now Tang Xiuyi can be considered a star.
There are still many fans, especially many boxing fans, who met Tang Xiuyi through Xiao Yong.
She can help with a little drainage and it will have some effect!
The competition date is getting closer.
The competition location is still at the Bird's Nest Stadium.
In order to make the last profit this time, ONE also specially chose this large sports venue.
Watching the sold out tickets go on sale.
Guan Huashan was not happy.
This is the last time he will get money from the cash cow Xiao Yong.
The helpless feeling of watching a money tree disappear is undoubtedly uncomfortable.
During the time when Xiao Yong joined ONE, the door to the Chinese market was completely opened, and he also saw the terrifying potential of the Chinese market.
It even made him a lot of money, but unfortunately, everything is coming to an end.
"Snapped!"
Guan Huashan threw the report on the table.
He sneered and said: "If you are willing to leave, then go! Let me see if you lose to Xiticai in front of so many Chinese audiences, can you bear the consequences?"
In this game, in his opinion, Xiao Yong has no chance!
It is true that the kickboxing series of competitions have low attention and low commercial value, but under certain rules, there is no doubt about the strength of these people.
To put it simply, it's like table tennis. In terms of commercial value and attention, it may not be as good as tennis, but do you think Federer can win the table tennis championship?
Although the difference between fighting rules is not that big, the essence is the same.
At the competition site, the audience has already arrived!
Yang Lele is also here for this competition!
In fact, Yang Lele has now officially entered the public eye.
Since Anta sponsored it, Yang Lele has become unexpectedly popular.
As the nominal boss of Tenglong Jue, her exquisite appearance and devilish figure instantly gathered a large number of fans, both male and female.
This era is really about looking at faces.
Many people become famous overnight just because of one face!
Live directorial shots often cut on Yang Lele's face.
Because she is really beautiful, her facial features belong to the top class of beauty, and with the long-term use of nourishing yin and beauty pills, she looks even more beautiful under the camera.
"Wow, this Yang Lele is really beautiful! I feel like she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life!"
"I didn't expect that such a girl would like to fight."
"Lele, always be a god!"
"To be honest, if I can take her, it would be worth dying."
"This figure is invincible!"
"I also want to see the Tenglong Jue. When will it open in our city?"
Guan Huashan always pays attention to the number of people watching the game.
But what disappointed him was that no one paid much attention to the previous games, and there were not many spectators.
There are only a few hundred thousand people in total, which is basically the original level. But as time goes by, the closer to Xiao Yong's game, the number of spectators begins to skyrocket!
Two hundred thousand! Three hundred thousand! One million! Five million!
In the end it skyrocketed to 25 million!
These people basically rise within an hour.
Guan Huashan naturally understood that they were basically here for Xiao Yong!
I'm just a personal fan, not a fan of the event.
In fact, people are often caused by a herd mentality and a desire to watch the excitement.
When no one pays attention to a thing, no one cares about it, but once it becomes popular, more people will watch it.
It's like a recent movie, Hidden in the Dust. It was originally released and no one cared about it, but with the promotion of the short video, it became popular and went out of the circle.
Maybe many people who were not originally interested in this kind of subject matter or movie will go and watch it.
The same goes for Xiao Yong's game, the popularity is too high.
He had conflicts with the event organizers, was targeted by the event organizers, endured coercion, and entered the kickboxing field that he was unfamiliar with.
It will undoubtedly make this game a hot topic.
On the court, Yang Lele was quite nervous!
This is Xiao Yong’s last game in ONE. As the person closest to Xiao Yong, she naturally knows how important this game is to Xiao Yong.
As the opening song played, Xiao Yong walked out of the contestant tunnel!
As soon as he appeared on stage, the cheers instantly exploded!
Throughout the venue, the audience's crazy cheers and roars mixed together, giving Xiao Yong goosebumps unconsciously.
The blood in the body is burning!
The whole person is in extreme excitement!
This time, there is a standard rope boxing ring in the center of the venue!
Xiao Yong came to the edge of the ring!
Vaseline applied by the referee!
Next up was Sitichai, the current number one kickboxing lightweight in the world.
I walked out of the boxer tunnel very confidently!
Until now, he still doesn't think Xiao Yong can pose much of a threat to him!
Heavy boxer, he fights a lot, Marat is one of them!
But so what, Marat fought with him five times and only won once.
At this time, domestic commentators also began to comment on this game!
"Unfortunately, everyone should know that this is Xiao Yong's last game in ONE, and it is also his curtain call! But I think it is really not easy for Xiao Yong to complete such a challenge in his curtain call.
So no matter whether Xiao Yong loses or wins in this game, everyone should not criticize him! Give him more consideration."
This commentator, who has been engaged in fighting commentary for many years, naturally knows that the probability of Xiao Yong winning this match is not high!
As for him, he is an official commentator of ONE. Although he agrees with Guan Huashan's behavior in his heart, he still has to rely on this to make a living and support his family in Hukou.
Not everyone can give up a good job.
So he can only vaccinate the audience as much as possible!
Hope to reduce the impact of Xiao Yong losing the game.
But to the audience, this is not the case.
Doesn’t this boost others’ ambitions and destroy one’s own prestige?
"Haha, what kind of bad commentary? You think Xiao Yong will lose without a fight?"
"Xiao Yong will definitely win. What nonsense does Xiti guess? He can be ranked number one in the world because my brother Yong doesn't do kickboxing!"
"When Xiao Yong faced various cross-ranking challenges in the past, the commentators also supported Xiao Yong, right? Now that Xiao Yong is about to leave, he is looking at Xiao Yong's decline? It's interesting!"
"Bullshit ONE, I just paid to see Xiao Yong slap you in the face today!"
There is actually an online barrage in front of the commentator!
Seeing these barrages, the commentators felt helpless.
He can also predict that after this game, ONE's domestic traffic will definitely decline.
You know, since they started making money domestically, their wages have also risen with the tide!
After this time, it is estimated that overall revenue will decline, and their wages will most likely fall.
In fact, the entire ONE China division is very reluctant to see Xiao Yong leave.
After all, all the hard work over the past few years has resulted in a half-dead state.
It’s a rare opportunity to change now!
In the competition venue, Xiao Yong and Xiticai both entered the ring!
This is the first time Xiao Yong has competed in the ring.
This is also the first time Xiao Yong and Xiticai have met in real life. Xiao Yong did not attend the two previous press conferences at all!
At this moment, Marat, who had returned to Guojia, also started the live broadcast to watch the game with the audience!
It's not a secret that he and Su Bobang went to work as Xiao Yong's sparring partners.
However, no one outside China thought Xiao Yong could win this game.
In the Marat live broadcast room, the audience was only optimistic about Sitichai.
Marat looked at the barrage and said with a smile: "I'm telling you, don't think that Xiti is sure to win. I am more optimistic about Xiao Yong of the two of them. That guy is really a monster! Strength, reaction, resistance, physical fitness
, are all terrifyingly strong, Xiticai won’t win that easily!”
Seeing what he said, the audience felt in disbelief!
"How can it be!"
"Is Xiao Yong really that strong?"
"No way, he can't be really strong?"
Marat smiled and said: "Of course, that guy is definitely a terrifying monster. I think even if he goes to the UFC, he must be the top player. If he really specializes in kickboxing, he will be 100%
The number one lightweight boxer!”
No one expected that Marat would give Xiao Yong such a high evaluation!
100% lightweight first?
At this time, Xiao Yong and Xiticai slowly approached in the field.
Xiticai's frame is very high, her dark skin and angular muscles make her look extremely strong!
The two approached, but Xiao Yong did not punch first.
But also maintain the elevated head protection!
Suddenly, Xiti guessed a quick leg sweep and kicked Xiao Yong directly in the ribs!
"boom!"
A kick kicked the game off completely!
Because there was no ground and no hugs and throws, Xiti guessed that this kind of kick would be even more unscrupulous.
If he were in the octagonal cage, Xiao Yong could knock him to the ground right now!
