Match Point

Chapter 476: Sincerely

"Match Point(

Since Gao Wen upset Wawrinka and entered the quarterfinals, in just four days, major brand manufacturers have been surging, including Crocodile, New Balance and other brands, making frequent moves and making moves one after another. Adidas has made a comprehensive attack to show its sincerity , The determination to win is undisguised.

However, Nike has remained silent.

Everyone knows this isn't normal, Nike must have a plan secretly brewing in the background; also, it's no secret that Tobias and Nike have a very strong personal relationship, maybe Nike has been secretly pushing the negotiations and then blockbuster complete the contract.

Only Tobias knew that in just a few days, Jenkins completely dived and disappeared, not to mention promoting the cooperation of endorsement and sponsorship, and the daily greetings also disappeared without a trace; but Tobias also guessed that Jenkins It must have been intentional, apparently brewing—

The lower the profile, the more silent it is, which means the greater the possibility of movement.

Instead, like a crocodile, it blatantly initiates actions, the splash is too big and the target is too big, and the result is nothing.

However, Tobias admitted that he was also a little curious about what medicine was sold in Nike's gourd, especially the timing of Jenkins' appearance was also worth pondering—

The day before the final.

In fact, it is currently in a state of extinction, and everyone is quietly waiting for the results of the finals. Although it has nothing to do with the results, Gao Wen's strong rise in commercial value is a certainty, and the contract is definitely signed; but the commercial value of the champion and runner-up is completely There is no comparison, and the contract figures are probably very different.

However, while the others were staring with bated breath, Jenkins quietly appeared on the stage.

Today, in fact, all attention is focused on the women's singles final, "Serena Williams VS Wozniacki", the result of this contradictory battle will also determine whether Serena Williams won her eighteenth place The Grand Slam champion, or Wozniacki's breakthrough first Grand Slam.

Currently, both Federer and Serena Williams have 17 Grand Slam championship trophies, respectively leading the list of men's and women's championships among active players. Then it's Serena Williams' turn, which can be described as highly anticipated.

Moreover, according to the statistics website, after both Djokovic and Federer lost in shock, the US Open men's singles final lineup was determined to be "Gauvin VS Cilic", and then the ticket price for the final dived directly. With the Big Four absent from a Grand Slam final for the first time in years, audience interest has dropped significantly —

The average fare was reduced by 14%.

The two sides in the men's singles final are No. 14 seed Cilic and wild card player Gao Wen (ranked 193 in the world), which is also the lowest ranking since Sampras broke into the final as No. 17 seed in 2002. At the same time, Gao Wen is also the world's lowest-ranked finalist since the Open era.

In 2002, there was no ticket price related statistics, but it was the last game of Sampras' career, and the ticket price must have been heavily hyped; in 2014, although Gao Wen created the history of Asian men's tennis, but Facing the impact of the Big Four's absence from the final for the first time, it still lacks a little impact—

After all, this is the US Open on the North American continent, not the Australian Open in the Asia-Pacific region.

According to statistics, within just 12 hours, the average ticket price for the US Open men’s singles final fell by as much as 14% to $598, which was 13% cheaper than last year’s peak match between Nadal and Djokovic. It is the confrontation between the top two players in the world, it can be described as the ultimate match that countless fans are eagerly looking forward to, and the ticket price is naturally high.

The U.S. Open men’s singles final with the highest ticket price in the past four years also came from the confrontation jointly dedicated by Nadal and Djokovic. The first Grand Slam championship trophy, the first time to reach the top of the US Open.

The average ticket price for that game was $856, with the cheapest ticket at $180.

From the price fluctuation of the tickets for the finals, we can deeply feel the profound impact of the "Dark Horse Showdown" on the market. Although there are still 36 hours before the closing period of the ticket window before the opening of the finals, there is still the possibility of fluctuations in ticket prices, but the side It can be seen that now the women's singles final is the highlight.

Back and forth, Jenkins chose to appear today. Tobias is not a fledgling kid. How could he think that Jenkins' appearance was a coincidence?

Carefully, Tobias looked Jenkins up and down, showing a smile, "So this means that you are ready now?"

The corner of Jenkins' mouth slightly raised, and he looked around at the spacious training ground out of the corner of his eye, making sure that no one could eavesdrop in a large circle around him, and then he didn't make a fool of himself, and spoke directly.

"Two million a year, five years."

...how much?

boom! Boom boom boom!

In an understatement, one can feel the thunder coming!

What does this set of numbers mean, just list a series of numbers as a reference.

This year, Bouchard reached the semi-finals at the Australian Open and the French Open respectively, and reached the final at Wimbledon, triggering a hand-to-hand battle between Adidas and Nike~lightnovelpub.net~ Finally, Nike signed the contract at a cost of one million US dollars per year.

In 2018, Halep ranked No. 1 in the world, reached the Grand Slam finals twice, and won the WTA's highest level crown five times. The contract she signed with Nike is 2.4 million US dollars per year.

In addition, just a few days ago, the Gators personally offered Tobias a $700,000-a-year contract, triggering a seismic chain reaction.

After a series of horizontal and vertical comparisons, one can understand how unbelievable and frenzied Jenkins just reported this set of figures.

After all, this is only Gao Wen's first Grand Slam tournament. Even with the backing of the Huaxia market, even with a series of shining halos of historical records, Gao Wen still needs to continue to prove himself after all.

According to Tobias's own evaluation, if Gao Wen unfortunately loses in the final, then $700,000 per year should be the most suitable position; $, and will try to see $1.4 million a year - but don't hold out too much hope.

In Tobias' view, Adidas should be very close to his psychological expectations. However, now?

Nike, it really is Nike, if you don't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster, and it will break the balance with a strong move. Compared with frequent movements, the sincerity and determination conveyed by a set of numbers can easily hold the initiative firmly in the palm of your hand.

However, there is something strange, the abnormality is the demon.

Tobias is not a rookie, his thoughts are running at high speed, not only is he not ecstatic, but he is also fully vigilant, and a figure immediately appears in his mind—Max Eisenbud, also a top broker colleague of IMG Brokerage Company, currently Eisenbud is busy in China.
