PS: This is the 91000 recommended update. The next time the 93000 update is recommended. The time for the 93000 update may be slightly delayed due to some force majeure (such as overtime work). I hope everyone will support me.
"In North America, the United States, as the world's largest economic power, is naturally the focus of our development. Although Americans prefer rugby, baseball and basketball, after experiencing the baptism of the World Cup and Olympic football games, the number of people who like football in the United States has gradually increased. If the operation is done properly, it will be no problem for us to gain a foothold in the United States."
"However, the operational status of the Major League of America in recent years is quite bleak. In order to cater to the tastes of Americans, there are many differences in rules and normal football games (for example)," Zhuang Mingge was interested in taking Kennyon, so he asked a question.
"So boss, I think our partners in the United States should not be limited to football clubs. We should relax our choices and focus on the most popular football sports in the United States." Kenyon thought about the questions raised by Zhuang Mingge and quickly answered, "The four major sports leagues in the United States represent the four most prosperous football sports, namely ice hockey, rugby, baseball and basketball. Among these four major leagues, I think choosing a basketball club will best help us develop the market in Florence in the United States."
"Why is basketball? In terms of popularity, it's not better for us to choose baseball and rugby?"
"That's right, boss." Kenyon cleared his throat and began to explain why he chose basketball. "Since we are looking for a cooperation in the United States to help us develop the North American market, then we have to think about what price we should pay for in the case of equal status and in the case of equality, if we want the other party to agree to cooperate with us, what kind of price will we do in Florence?"
"I thought that the other party would definitely hope to expand their influence in Europe through Florence, otherwise, this kind of cooperation would be completely unequal." Zhuang Mingge suddenly had an inspiration and spoke.
"That's right, so the sports we choose must be in a certain aspect to the football audience level, otherwise we are just doing useless work." As he said, Kenyon wrote the four major sports leagues in the United States one by one, "Among the four major sports leagues in the United States, rugby fans will definitely not like us British football clubs. This is the difference in the concepts of the two types of football sports, which cannot be changed at all. After all, compared to British football, this is the case.
A kind of sport that can be played by relying on technology. Rugby fans obviously prefer the fierce collision between muscles. The intensity of the game is even more rude than the big and thick rude men in the Premier League! Therefore, compared with rugby, the body collision in football matches seems to be a game full of sissy in these people! They can't raise their interest in paying attention to English football! Therefore, we can't win these rugby fans at all, so it's better to give up."
Speaking of this, Kenyon drew a black line in the NFL (National Football League) to cut it off, and then continued: "Although ice hockey is very similar to football in the game format, it is far less popular in Europe than the United States, so even if we reach a cooperative relationship with it, it may be difficult to maintain it for a long time; although baseball has many similarities with football, for example, both sports emphasize the use of technology and strength, and also require the cooperation of the team. Occasionally, there will be heroes who ride alone to attract people's attention. However, its problems are the same as those mentioned before. The audience in Europe is too small, and the differences in game format will make joint promotion activities of the two clubs very difficult!"
Kenyon said, using a pen to separate MLB (Major League) and NHL (National Hockey League), leaving only the NBA as the choice.
"Apart from the above sports, the only thing we can choose is basketball!" After saying a lot of things, Kenyon made this statement, "Basketball is like football, and they are both big ball sports, and they attach great importance to both physical and technical conditions, and do not overemphasize physical confrontation like football. Moreover, although the NBA emphasizes the personal abilities of stars, no one can deny that basketball is a team sport. Similar prerequisites can allow many basketball fans to start paying attention to football while supporting their NBA."
"So, if we choose an NBA team as our partner in Florence, we can allow the fans of this NBA team to accept British football in the shortest time and support our team to a certain extent. The most important thing is that basketball also has a considerable influence in Europe. Many cities have historical basketball teams. Although the European basketball league is not as good as the NBA in terms of business operations, it is also an outstanding basketball event in the world. This makes us not have to spend too much energy on promoting basketball, but just find ways to expand the popularity of our partners in Europe."
"Well, what you said makes sense." After listening to Kenyon's answer, Zhuang Mingge nodded in appreciation. He also thought that forming a business partner with an NBA team would be more profitable for Florence's development in the US market. "So, that's it. After you and your team initially complete the satellite club system of Florence in Europe, you can take this team to the NBA for a visit. After the mission is completed, a list of NBA teams that are interested in cooperating with us will be released. Then we will hold a new meeting to discuss which team to choose to become our partner."
"Okay, I understand, boss." Kenyon, who was assigned a task by Zhuang Mingge, was not dissatisfied at all. Instead, he thanked happily, because he knew that the more such jobs, the more the boss valued him, and then his status in Florence would be more stable and he would get more salary.
As a business elite growing up in a capitalist society, Kenyon has always believed that the specific manifestation of personal value is the level of salary.
After the meeting on building a satellite club system, Zhuang Mingge and others began their respective actions.
After the gathering, the negotiating team led by Kenyon immediately set off from Fiorentina and began a long journey according to the arrangements of the secret meeting. Their goal was to complete this huge satellite club plan with quality and quantity, and then go to the distant Atlantic to go with those NBA teams.
Antonioni began to call on the club's scouting system and player database, and also borrowed player information from GM, gathered personnel to prepare for a big fight, digging out potential newcomers at home and abroad one by one, and classifying their information separately, preparing for the plans to be implemented next.
