"Qian Tea Green?" Chang Xian was stunned. He wasn't from City H, but after working at the reporter station for a while, he wasn't unfamiliar with this name. This was a name that could be seen on the streets and alleys of City H.
Qian Tea Green was a private tea beverage company in City H. The various tea beverages they produced were sold well throughout the country, and they had a large market share in City H.
Beverages had a wide range of applications, so it was reasonable for them to sponsor any event. However, as an eSport, the best way for them to advertise was of course the various software and hardware products related to computers. Therefore, the majority of the sponsorships for the various teams were all related to computers.
When Cao Guangcheng said that he had a good introduction, Chang Xian thought that it would be related to computers, but in the end, it was a tea beverage? In comparison, this didn't seem to be a good introduction, right?
Cao Guangcheng saw Chang Xian's hesitation and obviously knew what he was puzzled about. He smiled and said, "Go and check the information!"
"Oh!" Chang Xian replied and went to check the relevant information. Since Cao Guangcheng specifically mentioned Qian Tea Green, Chang Xian naturally paid special attention to it.
"How is it?" After a while, Cao Guangcheng asked.
"This Qian Tea Green is really Excellent Era's most loyal sponsor!" Chang Xian sighed. According to the information they had, Qian Tea Green had sponsored Excellent Era for a full seven years. Since the third season of the Professional Alliance, they had been Excellent Era's most loyal sponsor.
"Pay attention to this season," Cao Guangcheng said.
"Oh?" Chang Xian flipped through the information for Season 9. This season, Qian Tea Green's sponsorship was still there, but the amount was much less. This season, Excellent Era had been eliminated, so all the sponsorship had been greatly reduced. This didn't seem strange, right?
"Season 9, Qian Tea Green's sponsorship is still there, right?" Cao Guangcheng said.
"Yes! Many of the sponsors of Excellent Era are still around. After all, with the status of Team Excellent Era, I'm afraid that when these sponsors signed the sponsorship contract with them, they didn't have an automatic termination clause. "Chang Xian said.
That's right, the contract would be terminated if he was kicked out. This kind of automatic activation clause would appear in both sponsorship and player contracts. However, this was only applicable to the lower tier teams. For a team like Excellent Era, such a clause was an insult. How could Excellent Era be eliminated? Not long ago, everyone would have doubted this one hundred percent. Therefore, no matter if it was a sponsor or a player, in the contract with Excellent Era, they wouldn't care too much about this. It was just groundless worry!
"Haha, most of them don't. However, there are exceptions," Cao Guangcheng said.
"Could it be that Qian Tea Green …" Chang Xian had already realized Cao Guangcheng's meaning and immediately flipped through the information.
"We don't have the details of this type of contract, but I know that Qian Tea Green and Excellent Era's contracts always had an automatic termination clause. However, in Season 9, they already met the conditions, yet they didn't terminate the contract. They only slightly reduced the amount of sponsorship. This at least shows Qian Tea Green's determination and strength in sponsoring Glory! "
Chang Xian nodded. Cao Guangcheng's words were reasonable. However, after flipping through the information, he asked again, "But this Qian Tea Green … their sponsorship fee isn't too high!"
"Qian Tea Green has the determination to sponsor, but their sponsorship fee isn't high. What does this mean? It means that there's room for improvement! Excellent Era has been going downhill ever since their three consecutive championships. Their results are barely satisfactory. Happy, now that they've become famous in one battle, their reputation has risen. If they contact Qian Tea Green, there really is a chance, "Cao Guangcheng said.
"You're absolutely right!" Chang Xian was excited. Of course, he sincerely hoped that Happy would do well. As a result, after organizing the information, he immediately called Chen Guo back. As he passed the information to her, he emphasized Qian Tea Green.
Qian Tea Green …
As a native of City H, Chen Guo was quite familiar with this name. It was a bit of an exaggeration to say that she grew up drinking it, but it was possible. It was just that Chen Guo didn't really like drinking it.
In the early days, Qian Tea Green focused on tea beverages, but now, they were involved in all kinds of industries. However, tea beverages were still their most popular product, especially in City H. There was no need to doubt the strength of this company. If she could get them to sponsor her, that would be a very solid step!
Chen Guo asked for all the information she could get over the phone. After hanging up the phone, she was already prepared to take the initiative to attack.
According to Lou Guanning's team's analysis, Happy's current situation was to just sit and wait for the sponsorship to come. However, Chen Guo still wanted to be more proactive.
Qian Tea Green would be her first target! Chang Xian had already told her who to contact. Chen Guo immediately took the initiative to contact the person. The person on the other end of the phone was clearly just an assistant or secretary in charge of answering the phone. After hearing Chen Guo's intentions, he was slightly startled. Then, he seemed to ask for instructions and replied, "Tomorrow morning, 9: 00 am."
Not bad!
The other side had arranged a time so quickly for a meeting. It seemed that they were really interested in sponsoring. Chang Xian's recommendation wasn't bad at all. This Qian Tea Green's influence on the Glory Alliance was quite important!
Chen Guo happily returned to Upper Forest Park and told Ye Xiu the news.
"Qian Tea Green?" After Ye Xiu heard this, he slightly furrowed his brows.
"What is it?" Chen Guo was a bit puzzled by Ye Xiu's reaction.
"I'll go with you tomorrow to take a look." Ye Xiu said.
"Oh?"
"Why did you think of looking for this shop?" Ye Xiu then asked.
"Little Chang recommended it." Chen Guo said.
"Little Chang?" Ye Xiu stared blankly, "Why did he recommend this shop?"
Chen Guo explained what Chang Xian said. Ye Xiu listened and nodded his head: "That makes sense!"
"Right! Then get up early tomorrow. Don't be late. "Chen Guo said.
"Understood." Ye Xiu nodded his head.
Chen Guo happily logged into Glory and busied herself. On Ye Xiu's side, QQ flashed. He opened it and saw that it was a message from Su Mucheng.
"Qian Tea Green?"
"Yeah … … I'll go take a look tomorrow." Ye Xiu replied.
"Okay." Su Mucheng didn't say anything else.
The next morning, Chen Guo dragged Ye Xiu out. She didn't want to leave a bad impression of not being punctual. In the end, when the two arrived at Qian Tea Green Company, it was only 8: 30 in the morning. After receiving directions from the front desk, the two arrived at Qian Tea Green Company's Publicity Department. The first person to greet them was the voice that Chen Guo had heard on the phone yesterday. Because it wasn't time yet, the two were arranged to wait in the reception room.
Everything seemed to be going smoothly. Chen Guo's face was filled with excitement.
"Publicity Department … … Yeah, will we also have a department like this in the future?" Chen Guo said to Ye Xiu.
"Of course." Ye Xiu nodded his head.
Time passed by minute by minute. In the blink of an eye, it was 9: 00. Chen Guo's face was filled with anticipation. The assistant who had answered the phone arrived on time, but with an apologetic expression, she said, "I'm sorry … … Director Xia still has some unfinished business on hand. Please wait a little longer."
"Oh … … It's fine. We'll wait a little longer. Thank you!" A hint of disappointment flashed across Chen Guo's face, but it quickly disappeared. It was just waiting a little longer. It wasn't a big deal.
"Then please have a seat!" After the assistant left, Chen Guo looked disappointed and sat down helplessly.
"For this meeting … … you better not have too much hope," Ye Xiu suddenly said.
"What?" Chen Guo didn't understand.
"Do you know who the Director Xia she mentioned is?" Ye Xiu asked.
"I know!" Chen Guo nodded, "Xia Zhongtian, the director of Qiang Tea Green's publicity department. Qiang Tea Green is their Xia family's business. He's the youngest son of Qiang Tea Green's CEO, Xia Dongnan. More importantly, he's a fanatical Glory fan."
"That's right," Ye Xiu nodded, "He's a Glory fan. Moreover, he's a big fan of Team Excellent Era."
"Oh?" Chen Guo stared blankly. Although she didn't realize anything, she could faintly feel that Ye Xiu's words contained some sort of message.
"Do you know about Qiang Tea Green's sponsorship of Excellent Era?" Ye Xiu asked.
"I do. Since seven years ago, which is the third season of the Glory Alliance, Qiang Tea Green's sponsorship of Excellent Era has never stopped. Even when Excellent Era was relegated this season, under the automatic clause of the contract, they still continued their sponsorship. They only slightly reduced the amount of sponsorship," Chen Guo said.
"Mm … …" Ye Xiu nodded, "Then what if I told you that Qiang Tea Green's sponsorship of Excellent Era was in fact just Xia Zhongtian's personal decision? What would you think?"
"Personal decision?" Chen Guo was at a loss.
"Yes … … In reality, Qiang Tea Green had no interest in sponsoring Team Excellent Era, but Xia Zhongtian himself was a Glory fan and also a big fan of Excellent Era. That's why he stood his ground and insisted on sponsoring Excellent Era. After all, Qiang Tea Green is their Xia family's business. In the end, they turned a blind eye and approved his request. That's why this sponsorship, which has lasted for seven years, can't really be considered a business partnership. It's more like a fan's support for his team, "Ye Xiu said.
"How do you know so much?" Chen Guo was astonished.
"Hey hey, I was once the captain of Excellent Era, okay?" Ye Xiu said.
"So what you're saying is that aside from Excellent Era, Qiang Tea Green isn't interested in sponsoring any other team?" Chen Guo said.
"Yes." Ye Xiu nodded.
"Then why did Little Chang strongly recommend Qiang Tea Green to me?"
"Uh, probably because he's too young and doesn't understand the crux of the matter!" Ye Xiu said, "On the surface, Qiang Tea Green's sponsorship does have a lot of potential."
"Then why were we called over?"
"That's what I'm also puzzled about," Ye Xiu said.
Chen Guo's originally excited and expectant mood was now replaced with apprehension. In the blink of an eye, it was already ten o 'clock. According to the agreed time, the two had already waited for a full hour.
"Chairman Xia, the two of them have already waited for an hour. Do you want to meet them?" In Xia Zhongtian's office, his assistant was asking for instructions.
"I don't have time. I'm busy. Let them wait." Xia Zhongtian didn't even look at his assistant. He just stared at his screen, his mouse and keyboard clicking non-stop.
