I can see the commodity price curve

"Five hundred and fifty thousand!" The bald man chuckled, forcing Zhou Zhiming and Lao Du to give up the bidding.

However, just when he thought he had a chance to win, Zhang Yue suddenly appeared.

He took out a video, which was actually news about Bolt's participation in the World University Games: "Hello everyone, I just got the notice from Ron University.

It has always been my regret not participating in the World University Games. I hope I can make up for it this time, thank you!

In addition, Mr. Zhang Yue and I signed an agreement.

I have entrusted my image rights to Mr. Zhang for this sports meeting, which means that he can fully represent me. "

The video ended and everyone looked at each other.

Zhou Zhiming from May 3rd couldn’t help but ask: "Boss Zhang, Bolt really wants to participate in the World University Games?"

Zhang Yue smiled and said: "Yes, in order to invite Bolt to come to China, I made a special trip to Jamaica.

Although Bolt has retired and no longer participates in competitions.

But I was lucky enough to do him a favor and he agreed. "

"Wait, right? Bolt is already thirty-eight years old this year and has long passed the age to participate in the World University Games.

Even if he is willing, he is not qualified. "

Zhang Yue looked at him in surprise: "What does it mean that Bolt is already thirty-eight years old this year?

He is only eighteen years old, okay? "

"Ten...eight years old?" Zhou Zhiming couldn't believe his ears.

The world's number one flyer was already twenty-two when he became famous at the Beijing-Beijing Olympic Games. Now you say he is only eighteen years old, you are lying!

Zhang Yue's face remained calm and his heart did not beat: "Really, he is really eighteen years old this year.

Wait a minute! "

As he spoke, he took out an ID card from his pocket, with Bolt's photo printed on it, the name column next to it said Usain Bolt, and the age column said 18.

Zhou Zhiming's eyes jumped because the ID card in Zhang Yue's hand turned out to be an ID card only owned by Chinese citizens.

Bolt cannot immigrate, so this ID card must be fake.

But the problem is...

When he was about to ask clearly, Zhang Yue waved his hand: "Okay, since I said Bolt will participate in this National University Games, he will definitely participate.

That's why I'm here.

In fact, not only Bolt, but many well-known sports stars will also come.

They have licensed their image rights to me, and I will tie the image rights to the advertising bid.

As long as you successfully capture the advertising tender, you can use their likeness. "

Zhou Zhiming immediately asked: "Use Bolt's portrait? How to use it?

Is it with his likeness and the billboard with our product? "

Bolt has mentioned image rights just now, so this is true.

Zhang Yue shook his head: "Not only can his portrait be paired with the billboard with your products.

You can also print Bolt's portrait on your products, and of course, the words 'Zhongzhou Universiade Partner' must be added next to it. "

"Really...?" Zhou Zhiming was a little incoherent for a moment.

Not only Zhou Zhiming, but also others.

Bolt, this is a superstar.

Even though he has retired for nearly six years, everyone still knows him.

Especially in China, his popularity and popularity are higher than elsewhere.

If you can put his portrait on your own products, the advertising effect will be sensational.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Zhang Yue smiled slightly: "Okay, now I announce that the advertising bidding auction for the World University Games will continue."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Zhiming said loudly: "Six hundred thousand!"

No one found it strange. Although Zhou Zhiming had made it clear that he had given up just now, he did not have Bolt's image rights.

Now with this thing, the two are no longer the same concept.

Especially for people like Zhou Zhiming who work as teaching assistants, the target of their products is students.

And students have always been the main force chasing stars. If the cover of the three-year college entrance examination simulation in five years could have Bolt's photo printed on it.

There is no problem with sales increasing by ten percentage points.

"Seven hundred thousand!" It was Lao Du who spoke this time. This low-key boss who didn't like advertising couldn't hold himself back.

"Eight hundred thousand!" Since the bald head started, he naturally would not show weakness.

"Nine hundred thousand!"

"one million!"

"..."

The price soon increased to 1.5 million, but the two sides were still competing.

In the end, the bald one was slightly better.

He obtained the sponsorship rights to the World University Games and the right to use Bolt's image for a price of 1.8 million.

Next is the auction of the second product, and the bidding is still very fierce.

Of course, due to industry connections, the other party finally won it for 1.2 million.

Then the third, the fourth...

Luo Tiejun looked at Zhang Yue: "Boss, you still have a way."

His words were full of admiration. Originally, Zhang Yue proposed that any athlete who breaks the world record would be rewarded 100 million, thus attracting a large number of advertisers. The idea was already amazing.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yue invited Bolt over again.

Compared with the advertising effect of a superstar like Bolt, the previous reward of 100 million is more like a primer.

It can be said that what everyone is bidding for now is no longer the influence of the World University Games, but the appeal of this superstar.

Zhang Yue smiled slightly: "I also hit it by mistake."

He was telling the truth. If Bolt hadn't been defrauded of his money, he most likely wouldn't have been able to convince the other party.

Even if he could barely convince him, the most Bolt would do is show up on the runway, and it would be impossible for him to license his own image to him.

The advertising bidding meeting, which was originally planned to be completed in one day, lasted for three consecutive days before ending.

There was no way, the competition was too fierce, and after learning that Bolt's image rights could be used, many companies called to express their interest in participating.

In order to maximize profits, Zhang Yue temporarily added online auction channels.

In other words, those companies that are too late to rush over can bid through live webcast.

On the fourth day, Zhan Susu came to Zhang Yue with the account book.

Zhang Yue smiled and asked: "How was it? How much did it cost in total?"

Zhan Susu did not answer directly: "You guess?"

Zhang Yue thought for a while: "Five hundred million?"

"Wrong, it's 1.5 billion!"

Zhang Yue was stunned: "Wait, why are there so many?"

He has been at the auction for the past three days. Although he did not calculate the total amount of money paid by those companies, he had a rough idea.

Zhang Yue had already overestimated 500 million, but he didn't expect...

Zhan Susu smiled slightly: "You just focus on the country, don't forget there are foreign countries."

Zhang Yue was stunned: "Overseas? We don't seem to have held overseas auctions, right?"

“It was held online.

You forgot, Luo Tiejun said before that some foreign companies also wanted to participate in the auction, what should you do?

Just say it's the same as in China.

But the time difference in other countries is different from ours, so I arranged for another group of staff to work overtime at night to bid.

In other words, it seems that we are only auctioning during the day, but in fact we are not stopping for 24 hours. "

"That's it!" Zhang Yue nodded. Luo Tiejun did ask him about this, and he agreed at the time.

It's just that Zhang Yue thought that the number of foreign companies was not large, but now it seems that the attractiveness of Bolt's image rights is not low at all for those foreign companies. And the sales of one billion should be under the premise that the news has not been completely spread.

If it goes through publicity, it might be able to sell another billion.

Zhan Susu smiled and said: "Don't be too quick to be happy, although looking at the money currently, in addition to the cost of repairing the Zhongzhou Gymnasium, we can still make a lot of money.

But if too many people break that world record, it’s really not certain. "

Speaking of this, Zhang Yue chuckled: "Really? If they can break the record, then let them break it casually.

If these people are capable, I can afford even 5 billion, not to mention 1.5 billion. "

Just kidding, how can the world record be so easy to break?

Take the ten-meter platform as an example. The women's world record is currently held by Quan Hongchan.

This record has reached a very terrifying level, even Quan Hongchan herself cannot achieve it.

There is no doubt whether she can beat Chen Yuxi now.

Therefore, if you want to break the record, you must have the right time, right place, and the right people.

What's more, this is not the Olympics, but the World University Games.

Top superstars like Bolt who come to participate are just exceptions, and those top players in the world are not qualified at all.

This once again increases the difficulty of breaking the world record.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that none of them can be broken, but definitely not many.

Therefore, Zhang Yue is sure that the 1.5 billion will never be spent.

Time passed bit by bit, and soon there was only one week left before the start of the World University Games.

Luo Tiejun took the Zhongzhou Gymnasium renovation quality inspection report and handed it to Zhang Yue: "Boss, you are lucky to have fulfilled your mission!"

That's right, after more than two months of work, the Zhongzhou Gymnasium has been completely restored.

Three days ago, Mendeleev brought the world's top team of construction experts to inspect. After three days of repeated surveys, it was determined that there were no problems.

Zhang Yue smiled and patted the other party on the shoulder: "Well done!

Tell all workers that you have worked hard.

As mentioned before, every time the project is completed one day ahead of schedule, I will receive a personal reward of 10,000 yuan! "

As soon as these words came out, several workers standing behind Luo Tiejun immediately cheered.

"thank you boss!"

"Long live the boss!"

"..."

You can't blame them for being excited, because according to plan, they need to finish the project four days early.

Three of these four days need to be reserved for Mendeleev for quality inspection, and the last day is to prepare for the start of the World University Games.

However, leaving only one day to prepare is too hasty.

So Zhang Yue issued an order, under the premise of maintaining quality and quantity, each person would be rewarded 10,000 yuan for every day the work was completed ahead of schedule.

Three hundred and forty workers participated in the restoration of Zhongzhou Stadium.

This is equivalent to Zhang Yue spending an additional 3.4 million for every day in advance.

Now it's six days ahead of schedule, so Zhang Yue has to spend an extra 20 million.

This makes these workers a little uneasy.

Because according to the normal behavior of bosses, they will definitely find ways to deduct money.

It would be great if I could get 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, but I didn’t expect...

Luo Tiejun turned to look at these people: "How is it? I said the boss must keep his word, right?"

"That's right, we are overthinking it."

A few people were a little embarrassed, as they had many questions before.

Luo Tiejun waved his hand: "Okay, you go back and rest first!

The specific salary and bonus will be sent to your bank card within the next week.

If you don't receive the money after seven days, you can come to me directly. "

He was a little helpless.

If you were a worker at Tianyou Construction Group, you would definitely not ask this question.

However, due to manpower shortage, most of these people are recruited on a temporary basis.

If it is completed six days ahead of schedule, the bonus alone will be 60,000 yuan.

It is normal for workers who have never experienced this to have doubts.

However, they had just taken a few steps when they heard Zhang Yue say: "Wait a minute."

Several people turned their heads in confusion, wondering if Zhang Yue regretted it, when they heard Zhang Yue say to Luo Tiejun:

“Everyone has worked so hard, how can you just say you won’t go back?

You make arrangements, I will pay the previous yuan for each person, take them to have a good meal, and then relax.

Make money when you should, and enjoy when you should. "

What he said was the truth.

These workers are indeed very hard during this period, especially to keep up with the schedule. Many of these workers have to work sixteen hours a day.

Zhongzhou Gymnasium is often brightly lit at night.

Of course, there are bonuses for working long hours, and Zhang Yue did not treat them badly.

But many times hard work and money are not completely equivalent.

Once the 60,000 yuan bonus is given to them, they may forget about it after a while.

After all, it's just a number.

But if you treat everyone to a meal and visit the entertainment venues in Zhongzhou, they will most likely remember it for the rest of their lives.

And with a quota of 1,000 yuan per person, you can go to the top restaurants for dinner.

After hearing Zhang Yue's words, all the workers naturally expressed their gratitude again.

Over the next few days, Mendeleev took his staff into the field.

The originally empty Zhongzhou Gymnasium suddenly became busy.

Finally, the opening ceremony of the World University Games has begun.

Speaking of the opening ceremony, to be honest, Zhang Yue is not very interested in this.

He has always wondered, what's so good about this thing?

Isn't it just a few songs and dances at the beginning, followed by athletes from all over the world?

Especially when athletes from various countries enter the venue, the first few are still relatively new.

But there are more than a hundred countries participating in the Universiade. They pass by one by one, and the eyes of those who watch are dazzled.

But now Zhang Yue realizes that he was wrong, because he used to watch the opening ceremonies of various sports games in front of the TV.

This is my first time to visit the venue in person.

Watching in front of the TV and watching in person are two completely different concepts.

For example, when you see every representative team passing in front of you, with the thunderous cheers from the audience around you, you get that exciting feeling that TV simply doesn't have.

Especially when the Jamaican team comes out.

I saw Bolt walking at the front of the team, holding the flag representing the country of Jamaica, with a smile on his face.

The entire Zhongzhou Gymnasium exploded immediately.

"Bolt! Bolt! Bolt!"

Everyone shouted this name, but Zhang Yue, who was sitting in the audience, almost dropped his jaw in surprise.

Because the fat man who weighed more than 200 kilograms before was gone.

Instead, there was a Super Saiyan with no pot belly and a face full of muscles. (End of chapter)
