In the past, Wang Yi had two criteria for choosing brands to endorse.
First: we will not endorse any brand from that country;
Second: it must be a big brand with guaranteed credibility.
Now Wang Yi’s endorsement has added a third criterion.
That is: when domestic brands and foreign brands of the same category come to him for endorsement at the same time, the domestic brand will be given priority.
Although several car brands have come to him for endorsement this year, he has not agreed to them because some domestic car companies have contacted Zhang Qi and said they want Wang Yi to endorse them.
Zhang Qi is talking with those brands.
Therefore, whenever Wang Yi meets car companies from other countries talking about endorsement deals, he always refuses them.
After rejecting Audi, Wang Yi prepared for pre-match training.
3 o'clock, two hours before the game.
Domestic agent Zhang Qi called: "Wang Yi, the domestic car company can only give you 30 million for three years at most."
When Wang Yi heard this, he paused slightly and asked: "RMB?"
Zhang Qi replied: "Yes. They say this is already the ceiling for domestic car brand endorsements. Even the Mazda endorsed by Feiyu Phelps only cost 20 million in three years."
Wang Yi felt a little angry when he heard this.
30 million in three years, how much do you look down on me?
Feiyu Phelps endorsed Mazda for three years for 20 million, and that was in 2009.
It has been 15 years now.
Can you compare the current price to the price 15 years ago?
Although he always gives domestic priority when choosing brands, this does not mean that he is solely doing charity.
It is undeniable that 10 million a year is indeed the ceiling level in China now, but that also depends on who it is.
The influence of other people in the country is basically within the country.
For example, Liu Xiang, Guo Ailun and others.
Wang Yi's influence is not only domestic, but also has a certain influence around the world based on his current achievements.
With such popularity and influence, 10 million a year is simply a bargain.
This is really far from the price offered by Audi.
Audi gives us US$10 million per year, which is equivalent to more than 50 million US dollars based on current exchange rates.
If domestic brands were only four to five million less than what Audi offered, Wang Yi would happily agree.
To take a step back, even if the difference is sixty-seven, seventy-eight million, he might just grit his teeth and agree.
After all, it supports domestic production.
But now you are 40 million short.
This is a little too outrageous.
It’s not that Wang Yi doesn’t support domestic production, or that Wang Yi is obsessed with money.
But there are always some people who want to use Wang Yi's original intention of supporting domestic production to deliberately lower prices.
It’s okay if you press a little, but if you press 40 million at a time, then Wang Yi naturally can’t coddle them anymore.
"Then don't worry about them anymore."
Wang Yi sounded unhappy.
Zhang Qi was also very straightforward: "Well, that's what I mean too."
Although this way, Wang Yi is likely to endorse foreign car brands, which will save him millions in commissions, but he cannot ignore Wang Yi's interests for his own interests.
As a qualified agent, you should first put the interests of your employer first.
What's more, he and Wang Yi were former classmates and good brothers.
Gu Lu
Here in the United States.
Although Wang Yi just rejected Audi, there are a lot of foreign car companies that are looking for him to sign contracts.
These car companies do not have the mentality of some domestic car companies that want to use Wang Yi to support domestic production and lower endorsement fees.
Paul next to him also had a general understanding of the matter and persuaded Wang Yi:
"Brother, it is good to be patriotic, but I advise you not to think about China first. Some people will use this guise to get money from you. I have seen this kind of thing too many times."
"I know you want to support domestic companies, but some companies have no conscience at all. Instead of doing this, you might as well represent larger companies, earn their money, and then use the money for domestic construction or charity."
Wang Yi nodded.
What Paul said is correct. Although most domestic companies are still very conscientious, there are occasionally a few companies that have no conscience at all and just want to make money without conscience.
Thinking of this, Wang Yi shook his head.
Keep training.
After training for about half an hour, general manager Divac came to the sidelines and called Wang Yi over.
"The boss came to tell you that something happened."
Wang Yi looked at the time: "It's only an hour and a half before the game starts. Is there anything we can't talk about after the game?"
"The boss said he can't delay you for long, so just give him 5 minutes."
Wang Yi heard this and glanced at Divac.
There was nothing in Divac's face that he wanted to capture.
He secretly wondered if it was An Jiali's problem again.
Now An Jiali still has not given up on Wang Yi.
However, she is not stalking Wang Yi, but only expresses her love to Wang Yi intentionally or unintentionally, and even if there are other players around, he does not hide her love at all.
Wang Yi was wondering if the boss asked him to go there just because of An Jiali's matter.
He and Divac came to the boss's office.
I saw that in the boss's office, besides the boss, Dr. Lala, there was also an Oriental beauty.
The beauty looked to be about thirty years old, and her appearance was first-class.
Wearing professional attire and in good shape.
And it's professionally dressed in black stockings.
Although she looks about 30 years old, she gives people the impression of a beautiful woman in her 20s.
Seeing Wang Yi come in, she immediately stood up, smiled at Wang Yi and said, "Brother Yi, I finally meet you in person."
Her smile is not the professional smile of ordinary women.
It makes people feel that she is speaking from the heart.
Wang Yi didn't know this person, so he smiled politely back at him: "Hello."
Ranadive, the boss next to him, introduced Wang Yi: "This is Liu Yan, the new marketing director of Audi North America."
Wang Yi heard this and already understood her purpose of coming.
Thinking that she had rejected the domestic car company in the morning, she shook hands with Liu Yan and said, "Hello, Minister Liu."
Liu Yan nodded to Wang Yi: "Brother 1, I think you should have guessed the purpose of my visit this time, so I will get straight to the point. Audi wants to cooperate with you. If you have any questions about the conditions we have offered before?
If you are not satisfied, you can tell me. We really sincerely want to cooperate with you."
Wang Yi smiled: "Actually, there is nothing dissatisfied. If you are willing, just refine the contract terms and send them to my agent."
"Well……"
At this point, Liu Yan was stunned.
There was a hint of surprise on that beautiful face.
She had learned before she came that Audi had contacted Brother Yi's agent many times before, but Brother Yi's agent always said that Brother Yi didn't agree, and there was no reason, he just didn't agree.
Chapter completed!
