NBA: This Center Is So Stable

The new year is coming, and the new season is coming.

Chapter 12 Negotiation of broadcasting rights, high-level coach of Butler Bulldogs

America.

New York, American University Athletic Association.

Zhong Yuan, who took a 12-hour long-distance flight, came here across the ocean to negotiate NCAA broadcasting.

Although Zhong Yuan is the head of New Fox Sports to the outside world, the actual boss is someone else.

He came to New York because of the arrangement of the investors.

When he came here and saw the European and American girls all over the street, the head of New Fox Sports began to believe that he had not been bumping in the atmosphere in vain.

“Huh~ It is worthy of being an international metropolis. This broadcasting right must be obtained!”

He clenched his fists to cheer himself up, walked into the reception desk, sat on the sofa and began to wait.

The words of the investor came back to his mind:

“As the first sports website in China to contact them, we must be present and show enough sincerity to convince them to give us the broadcasting rights.”

“We must never give them the opportunity to sell at a higher price. We must speak to them accurately and accurately about the price.”

Zhong Yuan did not question the judgment of the investor, but the current situation of the broadcasting rights in the United States is a bit complicated.

The funds they want to get may far exceed the psychological budget of the investor.

Just recently, news came out that CBS had just won the 11-year exclusive broadcasting rights of the NCAA, with a total cost of 6 billion US dollars.

It costs an average of 545 million US dollars per year to obtain the copyright, which is a very bold plan and business layout.

This once set off a copyright fever, which made many sports event operating companies a little floating.

Fortunately, the primary goal of Zhong Yuan’s journey was just to try the text broadcasting copyright.

Based on the current popularity of the Internet and the number of netizens in China, text live broadcasting in the 3G era is very marketable.

As for video broadcasting, unless there is an exclusive TV program, the traffic fee alone is enough to make many fans eat a pot, and the current domestic wireless LAN has just begun to be laid out.

So as long as the text broadcasting rights are first steadily obtained and the market is laid out in the first round, New Fox Sports will be able to seize the opportunity.

However, the disadvantages of only taking the text live broadcast rights are also obvious.

That is, the scale is slightly smaller, and the American University Sports Association is not particularly interested in it.

“Zhong Yuan? Hello! I am Jenny, the deputy manager of the marketing department of the Sports Association! Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Zhong Yuan, who had been sitting on the sofa waiting for a long time, looked up and glanced.

He saw a middle-aged woman with blond hair and blue eyes and slightly loose skin.

“It’s okay, ma’am, hello, I am the general manager of Huaxia New Fox Sports, coming from Huaxia to discuss the broadcasting rights of Huaxia with your company.”

“Okay, no problem, follow me!”

Da!

Da!

The sound of high heels sounded in the corridor, and the two stepped into a conference room and began to negotiate the broadcasting matters.

Zhong Yuan fully demonstrated the characteristics of an oriental businessman.

He talked about the blueprint of New Fox Sports after obtaining the broadcasting rights and the prospects of the domestic market after obtaining the film and television broadcasting rights in the future.

He also talked about the qualifications and strength of New Fox Sports in China, and inevitably boasted a little.

He was also careful about the price and made all kinds of promises to the Americans.

But the Americans were not vegetarians and were not fooled like a 20-year-old girl.

Instead, Zhong Yuan won the short-term copyright at the maximum price expected by investors. In the end, Zhong Yuan made several transatlantic calls to let the Americans understand.

Now it is a seller’s market!

Oklahoma City.

All teams have started a new round of preparations.

The rhythm of March Madness is very tight, even in the semi-finals.

The day before the game.

The North Carolina Wolf Pack came to the previously agreed training ground.

Herb Sendek is constantly testing Wang Song’s adaptability and exploring the undeveloped areas of this young man.

He wants to see how much this Asian big man has improved after a season.

However, the intensity of the team competition did not make Wang Song feel nervous, and he played relatively calmly.

He did not reveal too much strength in front of his teammates.

But even so, he played quite well.

“Damn, Josh asked you to defend well, but you were sleepwalking? Stick to him!”

The result of the training match disappointed Herb Sendek, who was planning to investigate.

But it was also within psychological expectations. After all, the semi-finals were imminent, and pre-match training was just a way for the players to keep their condition.

“Wang, come here and I want to talk to you!”

After the training, Herb Sendek waved at Wang Song.

“Do you want to bring your talent to the NBA?”

“To be honest, I have coached so many college players in my coaching career for so many years, but only a handful of them have the ability to enter the NBA.”

“Just like the situation after the game that day, many scouts have contacted me recently and asked me for your information!”

In fact, when Herb Sendek asked this question.

He was a little nervous.

Although the elimination game of this season has not yet ended, if Wang Song himself really has this intention.

There is a sense of separation.

He wanted to keep Wang Song to continue to play for the North Carolina Wolfpack and lead the new juniors to rebuild the glory of the University of North Carolina.

But he couldn’t bear to block Wang Song’s future.

After all, the younger you are when you enter the NBA, the earlier you can activate and develop your potential.

As the highest point in world basketball.

NBA has the world’s top resources, which is not comparable to the NCAA, a college league.

Wang Song was silent for a while, and then said: “Boss, I can’t give you a definite answer now.”

“You know, that is the yearning of most players. If the opportunity is really in front of me, I will definitely not miss it.”

“Now I can tell you that I want to win the NCAA championship first, which will be the first team honor in my basketball career.”

This answer gave Herb Sendek a shot of adrenaline.

“Yeah… Is there anything more important than the current game?”

“Parting is just for a better meeting!”

Game day.

Lloyd Noble Stadium.

There was no sea of ​​people like the day when the Oklahoma Sooners played against the North Carolina Wolfpack.

The red and white crowd also dissipated in Lloyd Noble as the Sooners left.

But today there is still a good attendance rate.

There are not only fans of the two teams, but also many neutral fans.

The matchup between the two dark horse teams has attracted many neutral fans.

“Opening, opening, I bet a bag of peanuts that the North Carolina Wolf Pack will win today and advance to the finals.”

“I bet a box of cigars! The North Carolina Wolf Pack defeated the No. 1 seed Oklahoma Sooners in the last game, defeating a team with championship potential, which is roughly equal to the championship when rounded off.”

“Forget it, the two of you. All the players of the Butler University Bulldogs are expected to enter the NBA. Especially their coach Todd is even more terrifying. It is said that an NBA team has already hired him as an assistant coach at a high salary.”
