Mendoza province, in a at the foot of the hill small village, Blake turned on oneself cell phone, immediately receives several message that comes the electricity prompt...... 阿根廷门多萨省的,山脚下的个小村庄里,布莱克打开了自己的手机,立刻受到了好几个来电提示的短信…… The telephone is the Blake's colleague and good friend Antonio hits, Blake stands knows that certainly is in the company has anything, therefore returns to dial immediately. 电话是布莱克的同事兼好友安东尼奥打来的,布莱克立知道一定是公司里有什么事情,于是立刻回拨过去。 „Blake, you are willing to answer the telephone finally!” Antonio's voice resounds. “布莱克,你总算是肯接电话了！”安东尼奥的声音响起。 „Antonio, I told you before, I am on leave, in the Argentine mountaineering, Aconcagua, Western Hemisphere's first peak! The elevation is close to seven kilometers, there may not have the phone signal!” Blake answered. “安东尼奥,我之前告诉你的啊,我在休假,在阿根廷登山,阿空加瓜山,西半球第一高峰！海拔接近七千米,那里可没有手机信号！”布莱克解释道。 „Therefore you had not read the news recently!” Antonio then said: „Regarding the Zhang Guan matter, you doesn't know?” “所以你最近也没有看新闻是吧！”安东尼奥接着说道:“对于张冠的事情,你是一点儿都不知道了？” „Zhang Guan matter? Ha, I knew certainly! He already and blocked to the ban by the Track and Field Management Center of their country right? This I knew before the leave. Moreover I also terminated the representing contract over the next two years with the Zhang Guan economic man!” “张冠的事情？哈哈哈,我当然知道了！他已经被他们国家的田管中心给禁赛和封杀了对么？这个我在休假之前就知道了。而且我还和张冠的经济人解除了未来两年的代言合同！” „At that time we and Zhang Guan signed for four years 10 million dollars representing, now is also left over for two years, is we must pay him 5 million dollars, however Zhang Guan been barred from the game words, he did not have the slight representing value. But I only spent 200,000 dollars penalty, relieved this to represent the contract, I saved 4.8 million dollars for the group! If not know that early Zhang Guan was barred from the game, we could spend these 4.8 million dollars wasted money.” Blake said here, seemed delighted, he somewhat exciting saying: „Does board of directors appreciate my decision? They should give me the rising wage!” “当时我们和张冠签了四年1000万美金的代言,现在还剩下两年,也就是我们还要付给他500万美金,然而张冠被禁赛的话,他就没有丝毫的代言价值了。而我只花了20万美金的违约金,就解除了这份代言合同,我可是为集团省下了480万美金啊！如果不是早知道张冠被禁赛了,我们可能就要多花这480万美金的冤枉钱了。”布莱克说道这里,显得眉飞色舞,他有些兴奋的说道:“董事会是不是非常赞赏我的决定？他们应该给我涨薪水！” „Board of directors was discussing that must adjust Africa you!” Antonio cold snort/hum. “董事会正在商量要不要把你调到非洲！”安东尼奥冷哼一声。 „What? Adjusts Africa? Antonio, do not joke with me!” Blake says. He thought that oneself contributed to the great merit, should receive to award is right. Assigns to Africa? That is next to the dismissed penalty. “什么？调到非洲？安东尼奥,你别跟我开玩笑了！”布莱克开口说道。他觉得自己立了大功,应该受到褒奖才对。调往非洲？那可是仅次于被辞退的惩罚了。 „Blake, I suggested that you hurry to have a look at the news! Sporting news, Australian Open.” Antonio sighs, then said: „Zhang Guan has entered the finals of Australian Open, he is going with the champion who Federer competes for this year Australian Open.” “布莱克,我建议你还是赶紧看看新闻吧！体育新闻,澳网方面的。”安东尼奥叹了一口气,接着说道:“张冠已经晋级澳网的决赛了,他将要与费德勒争夺本年度澳大利亚网球公开赛的冠军。” „What did you say? Australian Open? Zhang Guan is a track athlete!” Blake very angry saying: „Antonio, now is not fool's day! Moreover we are the friends, you should not play such inferior joke with me!” “你说什么？澳网？张冠可是一个田径运动员！”布莱克很恼怒的说道:“安东尼奥,现在可不是愚人节！而且我们是朋友,你不应该和我开这么低劣的玩笑！” „Blake. I know that you do not believe. Your cell phone should be able on the Internet cafe, you to search with the cell phone, I said real!” Antonio said very much reluctantly. “布莱克。我就知道你不会相信。你的手机应该能够上网吧,你可以用手机搜索一下,我说的到底是不是真的！”安东尼奥很无奈的说。 Blake hung up the telephone, he searches the Australian Open related news on the cell phone immediately. 布莱克挂上了电话,他立刻在手机上搜索起澳网有关的新闻。 «Australian Open in history biggest dark horse. Zhang Guan enters the finals!» 《澳网有史以来最大黑马。张冠晋级决赛！》 „What?” Blake feels dizzy immediately, nearly sat on the ground. “什么？”布莱克顿时觉得天旋地转,险些一屁股坐在了地上。 ...... …… A month ago, Zhang Guan just by Track and Field Management Center ban time, Blake obtained the news. As the group the manager who is responsible for the market propagandizing, Blake first relates the champion team. The request terminates the Zhang Guan advertisement to represent the contract ahead of time. In Blake opinion, Zhang Guan was barred from the game and is blocked, will lose the exposure rate/lead of media, had lost the value of representing. 在一个月前,张冠刚刚被田管中心禁赛的时候,布莱克就得到了消息。作为集团负责市场宣传的主管,布莱克第一时间联系冠军队。要求提前终止张冠的广告代言合同。在布莱克看来,张冠被禁赛和封杀,将失去媒体的曝光率,已经失去了代言的价值。 At that time Zhuge Wenbo and Zhang Guan has mentioned this matter, but also jokingly called „emperor is not anxious the court eunuch to be anxious”, but at that time Zhang Guan had also said that so long as the sponsor is willing to pull out the penalty, can terminate an agreement. Therefore Blake pulled out 200,000 dollars penalty, relieved represented the contract with the Zhang Guan advertisement. 当时诸葛文博曾经和张冠说起过这件事,还戏称“皇帝不急太监急”,而当时张冠也说过,只要赞助商肯掏违约金的话,可以解约。于是布莱克就掏了20万美金的违约金,解除了与张冠的广告代言合同。 Then Blake also thought that gained the big small advantage, because on 2007 the beginning of the year. The words that now terminates an agreement can also not need to pay 2007 the expense. But this four years 10 million dollars advertisement represents registers in 2008, institute Blake felt oneself saved 5 million dollars for the company. 当时的布莱克还觉得赚了大便宜,因为正逢2007年的年初。现在解约的话还可以不用支付2007年的费用。而这个四年1000万美金的广告代言是签到2008年的,所布莱克觉得自己为公司省下了500万美金。 Afterward Blake has not then paid attention to the follow-up reporting of related Zhang Guan again, he started oneself vacation. Blake who is very fond of the mountaineering goes to Argentina, he must conquer the South America's first peak Aconcagua. 随后布莱克便没有再理会有关张冠的后续报道,他开始了自己的假期。酷爱登山的布莱克前往阿根廷,他要征服南美第一高峰阿空加瓜山。 Every year in January/one month and February is the Southern Hemisphere mountaineering best season, climbs the best season of Aconcagua. After Blake enters the mountainous area, then lost the signal of cell phone, the process that then the mountaineering as well as descends the mountain, spent he ten days, these ten days, are ten days of Australian Open competition. When he returns when village that can receive the phone signal. The semifinal of Australian Open just ended. 每年的一月、2月份是南半球登山的最好季节,也是攀登阿空加瓜山的最好时节。布莱克进入山区之后,便失去了手机的信号,而后登山以及下山的过程,花费了他十天的时间,这十天,正是澳网比赛的十天。当他回到可以收到手机信号的村庄时。澳网的半决赛刚刚结束。 ...... …… In the conference room, Blake puts on a long face, a restless appearance. 会议室中,布莱克哭丧着脸,一副坐立不安的样子。 „Blake, related with the matter that Zhang Guan terminates an agreement. Therefore we need a reasonable explanation.” A director interrogated directly: „Zhang Guan is our spokesmen, among us also two years of contracts, why you must terminate an agreement ahead of time, you do not know will do that will incur the massive loss to the company!” “布莱克,有关和张冠解约的事情。所以我们需要一个合理的解释。”一名董事直接质问道:“张冠本来是我们的代言人,我们之间还有两年的合同,你为什么要提前解约,你一直不知道这么做会给公司带来巨大的损失！” „I to avoid the company present the loss to do that.” Blake then argued: „I received the news, Zhang Guan by the track and field control section ban of their country, the media am also blocked him. Future a long time, he is unable to attend the competition, moreover on the media will not present his report, therefore he had lost the commercial value, if we continue to carry out the contract over the next two years, is equal to the waste money!” “我是为了避免公司出现损失才这么做的。”布莱克接着辩解道:“我接到了消息,张冠已经被他们国家的田径管理部门禁赛,媒体也会封杀他。未来的很长一段时间里,他都无法参加比赛,而且也媒体上也不会出现他的报道,所以他已经失去了商业价值,我们如果继续执行未来两年的合同的话,等于是在浪费金钱！” „Isn't Zhang Guan able to attend the competition? What is that Australian Open? On the media won't present his report? You have a look at now the sports plates of major media, who is the headline? The Chinese domestic media, the focus of this week of report is Zhang Guan, did you tell me Zhang Guan to be blocked by the media? Now but the age of the Internet, any news, only takes one second, can spread over the entire world!” Another director said very much angrily. “张冠无法参加比赛？那澳网是什么？媒体上不会出现他的报道？你看看现在各大媒体的体育板块,头条都是谁？就连中国国内的媒体,这一周报道的焦点都是张冠,你却告诉我张冠正在被媒体封杀？现在可是互联网时代,任何的消息,只需要一秒钟,就可以传遍全世界！”另一名董事很愤怒的说。 „I do not know why will have this matter! Zhang Guan is a track athlete, how I may want to obtain him to play tennis, moreover enters the finals of Australian Open!” Blake said very much suffering. “我也不知道为什么会发生这种事情！张冠是一个田径运动员,我怎么可能想得到他会去打网球,而且还晋级到澳网的决赛！”布莱克很委屈的说。 „You why, if you are willing to wait on for a week, you can see Zhang Guan to participate in the news of Australian Open. Therefore my question is, you why that urgent wish and Zhang Guan terminate an agreement!” The person of speech strange smiles, then said: „I heard that completes after Zhang Guan terminates an agreement, you quick rushing Argentina mountaineering, you should be do not want to miss the mountaineering good season!” “那你为什么不等一等,如果你肯等上一个星期的话,你就能够看到张冠参加澳网的消息。所以我的疑问是,你为什么那么急迫的想要和张冠解约！”说话的这人诡异的一笑,接着说道:“我听说完成和张冠解约之后,你就很快的赶往阿根廷登山,你应该是很不想错过登山的好季节吧！” „What do you mean? You said me, for did not miss the mountaineering season, can therefore complete with terminating an agreement of Zhang Guan as soon as possible?” An anger of Blake face, however the several other director this time expressions, also represented the similar question. “你是什么意思？你是说我为了不错过登山的季节,所以才要尽快完成和张冠的解约么？”布莱克一脸的愤怒,然而其他的几位董事此时的表情,也代表了同样的质疑。 „I choose as soon as possible and Zhang Guan terminate an agreement, to avoid paying him 2007 the endorsement! If carries out in 2007 the contract, we must pay him 2.5 million dollars!” Blake opening the mouth answered. “我选择尽快和张冠解约,是为了避免付给他2007年的代言费！如果执行2007年合同的话,我们就要付给他250万美金！”布莱克开口解释道。 „Now we rather pay him 2.5 million dollars, then carries out 2007 contract. But even gives him 2.5 million, he is not willing to receive now.” The person of speech then added: „The Zhang Guan manager has suspended some businesses representing with the negotiations of advertisement, after they must wait till Australian Open to end, discussed. Do you understand meaning?” “现在我们宁愿付给他250万美金,然后执行2007年的合同。但就算是给他250万,他现在都不肯收。”说话的人接着补充道:“张冠的经纪人已经暂停了一些商业代言和广告的谈判,他们要等到澳网结束后再谈。你明白其中的意思么？” „After Australian Open ended, discussed that the business did represent?” Blake gawked staring, later suddenly smiled: „Ha haha...... the Zhang Guan manager will feel, champion who Zhang Guan can obtain Australian Open? Then wants to have a lion's share well? This was really funny, but Zhang Guan opponent Federer! Although I to the tennis am not the unusual understanding, but also knows that Federer will be the strongest tennis player, Zhang Guan is certainly hit to explode by Federer in history! Really one group of naive managers!” “等到澳网结束后再谈商业代言？”布莱克愣了愣,随后突然笑了起来:“哈哈哈……难道张冠的经纪人会觉得,张冠可以获得澳网的冠军？然后好狮子大开口吗？这真是太好笑了,张冠的对手可是费德勒！我虽然对网球不是非常的了解,但也知道费德勒是有史以来最强的网球运动员,张冠一定会被费德勒打爆的！真是一群天真的经纪人！” „But champion, if Zhang Guan really obtained Australian Open?” Appeared very angry that director to say a moment ago: „The king of the world track and field, in addition the champion of grand slam, both domains can obtain the words of topest achievement, Zhang Guan will have how exaggerating commercial value, he will become the entire world commercial most expensive sports star! No, should be the commercial most expensive star! But this giant star, can be our spokesmen, but we only need to give him every year 2.5 million dollars!” “可如果张冠真的获得了澳网的冠军呢？”刚才显得很愤怒的那名董事开口说道:“世界田径之王,再加上大满贯的冠军,两个领域都能够获得最顶尖成就的话,张冠将会拥有多么夸张的商业价值,他会成为全世界商业价值最高的体育明星！哦,不,应该是商业价值最高的明星！而这种巨星,原本会是我们的代言人,而我们只需要每年给他250万美金！” „That is unlikely!” Blake said very much self-confidently: „Zhang Guan is impossible to defeat Federer.” “那是不可能发生的！”布莱克很自信的说:“张冠不可能战胜费德勒的。” „Mr. Blake, even if Zhang Guan could not win Federer, but by his original fame, a second place of Australian Open, could still be joined to every year 2.5 million endorsements again in addition sufficiently! Therefore what is undeniable, these terminates an agreement with Zhang Guan time, is our losses.” That director who most starts to speak reminded. “布莱克先生,就算张冠赢不了费德勒,但以他本来的名气,再加上一个澳网的亚军,也足以配得上每年250万的代言费！所以不可否认的是,这一次和张冠解约,是我们的损失。”最开始说话的那名董事提醒道。 Blake fell into immediately silent middle, he knows what the opposite party said is correct, by the Zhang Guan present fame, regardless of he is engaged in what movement, even if rope skipping kicking shuttlecock, so long as can continuously appear in the field of vision range of public, some people are willing to pull out the endorsement. But now Zhang Guan successful being promoted Australian Open plays in the finals, calculates at the commercial value, one year 2.5 million dollars endorsements, are really inexpensive. 布莱克顿时陷入了沉默当中,他知道对方说的是正确的,以张冠现在的名气,无论他从事什么运动,哪怕是去跳绳踢毽子,只要能够不断的出现在公众的视野范围内,就有人愿意掏代言费。而如今张冠又成功的晋级澳网决赛,以商业价值来计算,一年250万美金的代言费,真的不贵。 ...... …… Zhuge Wenbo places near the cell phone the ear, a complacent appearance. 诸葛文博将手机放在耳边,一副得意洋洋的样子。 „Mr. James, you said right, the cooperation of we and your firm continuously very smooth...... right, beforehand terminating an agreement is a misunderstanding, since we have signed the terminating an agreement contract, that should obey the contract execution, our champion team always has the contract spirit very much!” “詹姆斯先生,您说的没错,我们和贵公司的合作一直非常的顺利……对,之前的解约是一个误会,不过既然我们已经签了解约合同的,那就应该遵照合同执行嘛,我们冠军队向来都是很有契约精神的！” „Signs? Sure! We had cooperated before, very familiar, Zhang Guan also hopes that very much can continue the brand spokesman as your firm!” “重新签约？当然可以！我们之前合作过,彼此之间都非常的熟悉,张冠也很希望能够继续作为贵公司的品牌代言人！” „, Cannot certainly defer to the original price. The original that contract was in 2005 the bamboo slip, you know that in the two years the economic development was quick, inflation also very fierce, now anything is rising in prices, therefore we must comply with the situation, promoted the price slightly.” “不不不,当然不能按照原来的价格。原来的那份合同可是2005年签的,你知道的,这两年经济发展很快,通货膨胀也非常的厉害,现在什么都在涨价,所以我们也要顺应形势,稍微提升一下价格。” „How many now does one year of endorsement want? Mr. James, please first do not worry, this finals of Australian Open, must start tomorrow, now Zhang Guan is preparing full power, we do not hope that Zhang Guan thinks the matter that the business represented diverted attention, therefore might as well make us appreciate a next tomorrow's Australian Open to play in the finals together well, when the after competition of Australian Open ended, then how continued to discuss the price?” “现在一年的代言费要多少？詹姆斯先生,请您先不要着急,这澳网的决赛,明天就要开始了,现在张冠正在全力备战,我们也不希望张冠以为商业代言的事情分心,所以不如让我们一起好好的欣赏一下明天的澳网决赛,等到澳网的比赛结束以后,再继续谈价格怎么样？” Zhuge Wenbo hung up the telephone, several because other day the sponsor terminated an agreement to bring swept away depressed. 诸葛文博挂上了电话,几日前因为赞助商解约而带来的郁闷一扫而空。 „Zhang Guan, come on! Waited to win Federer, champion who won Australian Open, we can sign several big advertisements to represent!”( To be continued.) “张冠,加油啊！等赢了费德勒,拿下澳网的冠军,咱们就可以签几个大的广告代言了！”(未完待续。) ps: Chapter 1 delivers!
