    Chapter 138 Exposed

    At the last moment of the game, the national team took advantage of a mistake by Yunjia Tianyu¡¯s defense to tie the score to 3-4. However, this goal only made the final score better and did not change the final result.

    In any case, this was a happy game, and the fans saw a wonderful game; almost all Yunjia Tianyu players got the opportunity to play; Wenger had a certain understanding of the players' status; new  Several players who joined have shown their strength on the court; the municipal committee is very happy that Yunjia Tianyu used a victory to send New Year gifts to the people of the city; although the national team lost, the appearance fee of 100,000 US dollars  Their gain was not small, and their loss was not too ugly; as for Yunjia Tianyu

    "The ticket revenue is 970,000, the income from ancillary products is about 100,000, and the advertising revenue is 500,000, plus the ** broadcast fee of 50,000 for this game, deducting more than 1 million in expenses (including the appearance fee of the national team  (more than 800,000 yuan), with an income of about 500,000 yuan"

    Taking the financial statement of this game sent by the accountant, Pei Wei squinted his eyes and smiled. This was the first time he had made a profit in a game since he took over Yunjia Tianyu. Although for him, these five  One hundred thousand is nothing, but at least it proves that his development of the club is successful. After all, he cannot always rely on his own assets to invest in the club.

    This is a good start, and it is also a path that Pei Wei is gradually exploring to give the club its own hematopoietic function.

    After entering the 21st century, the losses of football clubs are gradually increasing. Even the clubs in the five major European leagues are basically operating in debt. However, those giants rely on the injection of funds from consortiums. Except for some small and medium-sized clubs, they can continue to sell players.  Apart from profits, everything else is basically debt-ridden.

    Even European clubs with higher living standards than those in China find it difficult to maintain the normal operation of their clubs through income from tickets, merchandise and broadcast rights. People in China have relatively low income levels.  How the club can find ways to make money is also a very real problem.

    Calculated based on the fact that a club can have an average of 30,000 fans buying tickets to watch the game at each home court - in fact, this is already very high. Even in the first few years of the most prosperous professional league, a large part of the club's football fans  Ticket revenue cannot reach this point - like Yunjia Tianyu, if the ticket prices are divided into three levels: 40, 20 and 10 yuan, the ticket revenue for a game is only 700,000, 11  The total income from the home court is less than 8 million, and the income from the chest and back plus the billboards on the side of the field is 15 million, plus other miscellaneous income.  If a club's annual revenue reaches 30 million, it is already an example of a pretty good business.

    But after 1996, even if a club invested 50 million a year, it could only be considered a medium level of investment, or even far from enough.

    This huge difference alone is enough for all clubs to rely on the capital investment of the affiliated group, otherwise it will be impossible to survive.

    The reason why the expenditure is so large is largely because the players¡¯ income has increased too much.

    Before the start of the professional league, even a national-level player could earn an income of two thousand yuan per month, which was already quite good.  But after the professional league started, Peng Weiguo transferred from Guangzhou to Chongqing in 1998. His net worth was more than 2 million yuan. However, according to rumors, the Chongqing team wanted to recruit this national team's midfield engine.  No less than 5 million was spent on him alone. Where did the extra money go?  Hasn't it gone into the pockets of players and agents?

    Even if you are on the bench for an A-B team, you can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. You can imagine how much the club spends in this area.  What a heavy burden it places on the club financially.

    Increasing the echelon construction will give the team more options to choose from. With competition, clubs will naturally not use malicious comparisons to satisfy the infinite appetites of players and agents, and can also save a considerable amount of money.  Expenditure, it¡¯s ridiculous that some clubs still don¡¯t understand this, and they only reluctantly implement the regulations under the tough attitude of the Football Association. It¡¯s so short-sighted that it¡¯s laughable.

    But Pei Wei also knows that this is not just a matter of short-sightedness by the person in charge of the club.  It's very simple. The club is not the private property of these owners. They basically work for the group. What they need is to produce results in a short time, not how to balance the club's finances. Anyway, if you don't have money, just ask for it. Anyway, money  It comes easily.

    Those CEOs who are group owners and also manage clubs are not people who are very interested in football. They are more interested in how football as a carrier canWhat advertising benefits it brings to their group.  Consider that this year a certain company in Shandong paid a sky-high price of hundreds of millions of yuan in advertising fees in order to obtain a prime-time advertising spot on CCTV.  Obviously it is better to spend the same money on football to get more advertising effects.

    But in the future, the vicious cycle of the league will no longer have a positive impact on these groups.  But when it gradually begins to become a meaningless investment, these groups will naturally lose interest in the club. After they are used to asking for money and now they can't get it, and they lack hematopoietic function, the clubs can only gather and shrink.  It will die in an instant like the bubble economy.

    Pei Wei knew that his thoughts were not unfounded, but that in the future, he had personally experienced such an era and had seen countless clubs that declined rapidly because they owed players salaries.

    Pei Wei only hopes that the success of his club can give other clubs some ways to earn income, so that they will not starve to death immediately after being "weaned".

    While Pei Wei was thinking about these questions, his phone rang.

    Pei Wei didn't want to answer the call, but he had to answer it because the phone clearly showed that the call was from Miss Su Meisu.

    It¡¯s not that she¡¯s afraid of offending this young lady. In fact, with Pei Wei¡¯s current financial resources and popularity, no matter how powerful Su Mei¡¯s family is.  You have to think carefully if you want to move him - after all, this is a legal society, and Pei Wei is considered a local snake in Yunjia, and his influence is not small even in black and white.  But for some reason, Pei Wei couldn't seem to lose his temper with Su Mei.

    Regarding this point, Pei Wei insisted that it was because he felt a little guilty about Su Mei - after all, he had taken advantage, but the other girl had to bear it alone, and he would do whatever he could to help.  Go and help with all your strength.

    Thinking of this.  Pei Wei answered the phone.

    As soon as the phone call came through, Miss Su's familiar voice came through the phone: "Pei Wei, you guy, you didn't even look for me after you came back from Europe? What do you mean, you treat me as a friend who doesn't exist?"

    Pei Wei smiled bitterly: "How can I, Miss Su, how dare I pretend that you don't exist Isn't this busy? Two new foreign aids have arrived. I have been busy looking for translators for them these days. Who wants this?  I'm in charge of everything. Besides, I just finished the game against the national team and I just had time to take a breath."

    "Hey, can't you tell, your little translator is still very important in the club?" Su Mei said teasingly.

    "Where is it" Pei Wei said with a smile: "Just so so. Tianyu is third By the way, I heard from a friend of Tianhua Group a few days ago that you resigned again, right?"

    "Hey. You are quite well-informed. I can't tell you are still a nobody." Su Mei also laughed.

    "Why don't you quit?" Pei Wei asked strangely: "Being the head of the Tianhua Group's logistics department in charge of profits is not something you can just want to be. Don't you know how many people are jealous of this position? And stay in that position.  , there are so many people rushing to flatter you, you are so respectable and honorable Why do you just say you don¡¯t want to do it and just quit?¡±

    "How do you know my ambition?" Miss Su said proudly: "The position is good, the income is high, the work is easy, and other people don't dare to offend me But it's too boring, you know?"  I haven't been able to fully utilize my strengths, so I resigned the day before yesterday! Anyway, it's almost the Chinese New Year, so I have a few days off, and my income is pretty good during this period. I'll give you the five thousand yuan right now.  "

    "There's no rushthen what do you want from me today?" Pei Wei didn't take the five thousand yuan seriously and asked casually.

    "It's the New Year, isn't it? I'm bored alone, and I don't have many friends in Yunjia You seem to be alone too, right? Why don't we two celebrate the New Year together? It will be more lively when there are more people." Su Mei  Not much to hide.  He immediately stated his intention.

    "Well" Pei Wei hesitated: "But I already plan to celebrate the New Year with others."

    There was a moment of calm on the phone.  Then Su Mei asked: "With whom?" The voice was not loud, but it was through the phone.  Pei Wei also felt the blade-like murderous aura coming from Su Mei!

    "There are so many people, probably about ten or so." Pei Wei calculated in his mind.

    "Huh huh huh." Su Mei sneered: "You have quite a few cunning friends all of them are men, right?"

    "There is also a land for women." Pei Wei said without realizing it: "Let me do the mathone, two, three, a total of three women and nine men."

    "Really~~?" Su Mei drawled her voice: "What age group are the three girls in?"

    ¡°?Age group?  Pei Wei frowned: "Let me think about it, Daniela is eighteen years old, and Rosilda seems to be in her early thirties"

    "Wait, who are these people? Why do they seem to have foreign names?" Su Mei was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.

    "Daniela is Italian, the fianc¨¦e of our foreign aid Materazzi! Rosilda is the mother of a Brazilian boy in the third-line team." Pei Wei seemed to understand something and quickly explained: "I'm not  As the main translator, there are many foreigners in our club now. They have no place to go during the Spring Festival. Anyway, I am alone, so I am responsible for being with them giving them the warmth of a family! "

    Su Mei's voice suddenly changed, with a feeling of spring breeze blowing on her face: "Oh, you are spending time with your club's foreign players and their families? Great, can I participate? Tony, Ballack and Ma  Traci is very handsome!¡±

    "Of course you can come if you want" Pei Wei had just finished speaking when Su Mei screamed: "Ah - it's great. Being able to have dinner with these stars I will call you tomorrow morning  , don¡¯t turn off your phone!¡±

    After saying that, Su Mei hung up the phone with a bang, leaving Pei Wei staring at the phone in a daze.

    Not to mention that Pei Wei was in a daze on the other end of the phone looking at the hung up call, but after Su Mei hung up the phone, she looked at the phone and sneered.

    "Well, Pei Wei, I was worried that you would be killed by my father and the others. I kept hiding it from my family, and I controlled myself not to find you How long do you want to hide it from me? Since your wealth is barely worthy of this  Miss, you want to run away like this?" Su Mei said fiercely.

    Pei Wei suddenly shuddered as he was busy calling the foreign players who were coming to his home tomorrow and told them not to call him boss tomorrow, only to call him Pei.

    Early the next morning, which was New Year¡¯s Eve, Su Mei¡¯s phone call woke Pei Wei from his sleep.

    "Pei Wei, I'm coming to your house today to celebrate the New Year. Do you want to prepare anything?"

    "Just prepare the same dish." Pei Wei laughed: "I have made an appointment with the foreign players. I can't entertain everyone by myself. Each family has to bring a local specialty, haha, and of course wine and drinks.  I'll prepare it. I've already prepared a light three-fresh meatball hot pot. You can just prepare some side dishes. It's okay if you don't prepare them. Anyway, the dishes will be enough."

    "Why didn't you tell me yesterday?" Su Mei became anxious: "Where should I go to prepare food for the time being? How about this? I'll just buy two bottles of red wine Is that okay?"

    "No problem." Of course Pei Wei would not say that he had prepared red wine: "I just have liquor, beer and drinks here, so you can bring out the red wine."

    "okay."

    Miss Su Mei¡¯s movements are fast.  Pei Wei put down the phone and had just finished dressing and getting out of bed when there was a knock on the door.

    As soon as Pei Wei opened the door, Su Mei came in with a lot of things: "Come on, I'm exhausted, help me!"

    Pei Wei hurriedly took the big and small bags and asked, "What are these? Such a big pile? Couldn't they all be red bars?"

    "That's okay." Su Mei took a breath: "These are snacks, melon seeds, peanuts and the like. You can't just sit down after eating in the evening, right? It's okay to make something to eat, don't you think?  "

    "You are still thoughtful." Pei Wei gave a thumbs up, but he was thinking in his heart that it seems that those snacks can't be taken out either

    Next, Su Mei began to help Pei Wei decorate the house. Although Su Mei came from a well-known family, her hands-on skills were really good. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that she was born in a military family and worked to support herself while studying in the United States.  There is almost no squeamishness.  The swiftness of his movements is comparable to that of an ordinary home attendant.

    "We both have a good taste this year." Pei Wei said with a smile while cleaning up: "French food, Brazilian food, Uruguayan food, Italian food, German food You think who can usually eat so much during the Chinese New Year?  Authentic delicacies from all over the world. ¡±

    "Yes, let's dine at the same table with these stars" Su Mei closed her eyes and seemed intoxicated.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off  There was nothing to clean up. Pei Wei's house was quite clean and tidy. The two of them just arranged the table, snacks and drinks. In less than an hour, the living room already had some appearance.

    "Let's take a break. Thank you very much for today." Pei Wei said with a smile: "It wasn't you, I would have had to clean up for an hour today."

    "There is no need to say these words." Su Mei crossed her two long legs on the sofa comfortably: "I haven't thanked you for helping me find a place to live and lending me money" At this point, Su Mei said  He took out a letter from his pocket??: "Here, here's six thousand yuan, plus interest, I'll pay you back."

    "What are you doing? I'm not a loan shark" Pei Wei pushed the envelope back: "You just resigned again and have no source of income. It's not too late to pay me back in the future."

    "It's New Year's Eve today." Su Mei imitated the tone in the sketch: "Take it, I'm not used to owing other people money, and don't worry, I won't starve to death."

    "ThenI'll accept it first." Pei Wei hesitated for a moment, took the envelope and counted out ten hundred-dollar bills: "I can't ask for interest. If word gets out that I borrowed money from a friend and asked him to charge interest? Then I'll pay him back.  What¡¯s the point of saving face?¡±

    "Well, I'll borrow it from you when I have no money in the future." Su Mei took it without any politeness.

    "Then what are you going to do after the Chinese New Year?" Pei Wei put away the money and asked casually.

    "I haven't thought about it yet." Su Mei chewed melon seeds: "How about I go to your club to do something?"

    "Ah?" Pei Wei opened his mouth wide. He didn't expect that Su Mei would bring her idea to Yunjia Tianyu Club. Su Mei had already continued: "It seems that you have quite a status in your club help me arrange it."  Just a matter."

    "What can you do?" Pei Wei smiled bitterly: "Besides, our club is not short of people now."

    "Don't underestimate me!" Su Mei said seriously: "I can understand seven foreign languages! Italian, Spanish, English, French, German, Portuguese and Serbian Your club will always have to deal with foreign clubs, right?  ? I¡¯m just right.¡±

    "Dealing with other clubs? Then I don't dare, don't offend everyone!" Pei Wei said in his heart, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind: "Don't say it. Our club really has a position suitable for you."

    "Where is it?" Su Mei asked with interest.

    "Our club now has more than ten scouts from Italy, Uruguay and the UK. Their job is to find potential young players across the country and train them together. They fed back a lot of information last year. This is  It's a huge project, and we don't have enough translators yet to translate this information that is full of slang from all over the world Don't you know seven foreign languages? This is just right for you!" Pei Wei added in his heart!  : "It just so happens that this job doesn't require you to interact with other people. Your personality couldn't be more suitable."

    "This job is not bad." Su Mei said excitedly: "I happen to be very interested in football. This kind of thing is a piece of cake! It's settled!"

    "I still have to report to our boss" Pei Wei smiled bitterly.

    Su Mei also laughed.  But in my heart I was furious: Pretend!  Then install it!  Let's see how long you can pretend!

    The Brazilian barbecue brought by Dunga, the feijoada pleta made by Rosilda with Brazilian characteristics, the German salted pork knuckle brought by Ballack, the mushroom soup and pepperoni pizza brought by Tony and Materazzi  And Italian pasta, Uruguayan roast beef brought by Recoba is a local specialty that few others can eat.  As for the head coach Arsene Wenger, he is even more extraordinary. The couple and Yourcenar brought classic dishes such as salmon and French steak, probably to Yunjia City.  No one has ever been able to eat such a wide variety of dishes with unique flavors from all over the world during the Spring Festivala hodgepodge.

    Tony, Ballack, Wenger and Yourcenar had tried to celebrate the traditional Chinese New Year with the boss Pei Wei last year. This was the first time for others, especially Adriano's family and Materazzi.  Recoba and Recoba were not familiar with Pei Wei, so they seemed a little cautious.

    Su Mei is very familiar with them. She keeps talking to these foreigners in various languages ??to see how fluent they are.  Miss Su's self-proclaimed "proficiency in eight languages" does not seem to be bragging. Even Wenger secretly gave Pei Wei a thumbs up and praised Su Mei's erudition in languages.

    You must know that even Wenger, who is known as a professor, only knows six languages ????plus Chinese, which is two less than Su Mei. Wenger was born on the border of Germany and France, and these two languages ????are considered his mother tongue.  Compared with Su Mei, who only speaks Chinese as her native language, her starting point seems to be higher.

    So even though Su Mei is here, Pei Wei can't use his status as the club owner to win people's hearts.  But because of Su Mei, a person who can communicate smoothly with almost everyone.  The atmosphere was even more harmonious than last year's Chinese New Year, and almost everyone was drunk in the end.  They supported each other and left Pei Wei's home.

    "Thanks to you today" Pei Wei had almost finished drinking and struggled to stand up: "If it weren't for you, it would be a big problem for so many people to communicate Haha, it seems that there is no problem with your work.  ¡±

    "Really?" Su Mei glanced at him:"Don't you need to report to Pei Wei?"

    "I still need to report to that kid" Pei Wei laughed loudly: "Does he dare not listen to what I say? I am the only one who can make the decision in this club! Don't worry, you can report it as soon as the new year is over.  arrive¡­¡­"

    At this point, Pei Wei realized what he had said - when he raised his head, he happened to find Su Mei's bright eyes staring at him: "How long do you want to hide it from me? My Chairman Pei!"
