Chapter 686： CW Weekend Plan

Of course, these are not a problem for Yang Orange and the Brooklyn Nets. Let alone Yang Orange and Konrad Koch, the two local bosses are not short of these tens of millions of dollars in luxury tax. The addition of the position will inevitably introduce more resources for the Nets, and no matter how good they are, they can guarantee a fairly strong economic position. After all, they are located in New York.

Of course, so far, the team is still at a loss, even if the league's income dividends after the season are included, it may not be profitable.

You must know that at the beginning of the season, before Yang Orange and the others took over the team, the Nets had paid up to $90 million in luxury tax for these high-paid veterans, setting a new NBA record for paying luxury tax, which indirectly led to this. The Nets' revenue in a single season suffered a slight loss. You must know that Paul's joining has greatly boosted the market and audience ratings, so the huge hole has not been completely filled.

Fortunately, next season, the Nets’ revenue capabilities will undergo a qualitative change. Whether it’s the chest advertising contract or the local media broadcast contract, it can bring big profits to the Nets. If Durant is replaced in the summer Pulled, Yang Orange is confident that the Nets will surpass the Lakers and become the most profitable team in the NBA.

In fact, the income gap between the league’s teams is very large. The nine-year, $24 billion broadcast contract signed by the NBA in 2014 was regarded as a panacea to narrow the league’s income gap. This is not the case. Like the Los Angeles Lakers, the reason why the Lakers can maintain such a high revenue capacity is mainly because they signed a contract with Time Warner-based local media of up to 149 million US dollars.

There is also the Knicks, which is slightly lower than that, and also earned more than 100 million U.S. dollars in cooperation with local media, but this kind of treatment is not available to every team, at least before the Nets did not have such resources. In the local media's broadcasting contract, only a few tens of millions of dollars can be obtained, which can only be said to be better than nothing.

However, Yang Cheng has a perfect solution to this. After successfully grabbing a new round of North American broadcast rights for the Premier League from NBC, CW TV station has the ability to develop the live sports sector. Mark Pedewitz carefully prepared CW TV station In the "Weekend" plan, there was originally a plan to include the NBA in the sector. Of course, special treatment should be given to the team of the owner.

After Paul’s arrival, the Nets will not lack superstars to take charge, ensuring the basic set-up. CW TV will also benefit, signing several retired stars as full-time live broadcast guests, and opening a few more sports-related columns. , Basically, it can cover all-weather sports events on weekends, and provide the most fulfilling weekend meals for spectators who love competitive sports.

For this reason, Mark Pedewitz once suggested that Yang Cheng buy several other teams, such as rugby, baseball, and ice hockey. These are the most popular sports in North America. If the four major sports leagues have teams with owners Existing, CW TV station can definitely take advantage of this advantage to grab a big piece of cake from several other wireless stations.

This plan is very attractive. Yang Cheng is a little excited. He himself likes sports and raises a few teams. With the support of his own media, it is not a problem to reach a level of no loss or even a slight profit. The market value of the team is It keeps growing. In the future, I can use the team as collateral to borrow from the bank for investment in other industries. Anyway, the team, even if it loses the money and cannot pay the loan, directly hand the team to the bank to repay the debt. OK.

After sending off Sean Marx, Yang Cheng considered this issue in his office. There is CW TV station in North America and Sky Sports in Europe. He has already obtained South Korean SBS TV station in Asia. If he can buy Southeast Asia or even the small RB TV station. With several TV stations, and even video websites in Country Z, he can promote his team to the world.

Of course, with the exception of basketball, the audiences of several other sports are relatively small in Asia. Baseball is more popular in Japan and South Korea, but he is not in a hurry to cash in to earn money. Fans need to be cultivated slowly, especially outside of Z. Asian countries adopt a fee-based subscription model to watch programs. As long as fans are willing to pay, the TV station will not lose money. It seems that this business can be done.

However, NFL and MLB teams can earn more money than NBA teams. Most of the clubs in these two leagues are in the hands of a certain family. Most of them are family businesses of a certain family. They have even passed on for decades and become one. The symbol of the family, unlike the NBA team, has long become a commodity for the owners to change hands. Therefore, if Yang Cheng wants to acquire a football or baseball team, the difficulty is not ordinary.

Moreover, according to the global club value list announced by the service, as many as half of the NFL teams are signed 50. It can be seen how valuable the football team is ~ www.novelhall.com~ Take the top teams For example, the Dallas Cowboys are approaching US$4 billion, followed by the New York Giants, New England Patriots, San Francisco 49ers, etc., all have a market value of US$2 or 3 billion. Teams located in small cities are of course cheaper, but correspondingly Yes, its brand value will also decline, which is not in the interests of Yang Cheng, and as the owner of the team, he must be on the court frequently to watch the game, so he must not be too far away. New York and Los Angeles are the best choices, Washington and San Francisco As an alternative.

Then the scope is reduced to the three teams of New York Giants, New York Jets, and Los Angeles Rams. The market value of the three teams is not much different. They are all around 2.5 billion US dollars. Considering the premium, they cannot be bought without 3 billion.

No need to think about the New York Giants, the core industry of the Mara family, and they are not short of money;

Woody Johnson, the owner of the New York Jets, has a close relationship with Big Mouth, and was later nominated as ambassador to the United Kingdom. However, Yang Cheng has never contacted him and does not know much about it, so it can be considered as an alternative;

As for the Los Angeles Rams, its owner is also the boss of Premier League Arsenal, the son-in-law of the Walton family-Kroenke, this is a full-time sports club, it is not impossible to talk about it. After all, they are all businessmen. It only cost 450 million U.S. dollars to buy the Los Angeles Rams five years ago. Now Yang Cheng wants to buy it, at least five times that.

For businessmen, this is definitely a good deal, and the recent attendance of the Los Angeles Rams has been declining year after year, and they are almost becoming a third-rate team in Los Angeles. If not for the name of the only NFL team in the city, I'm afraid it was already captured by the fans.

From this look, it seems that the Los Angeles Rams are Yang Cheng's only and best choice. (https://)
