Chapter 972: Carrot and stick

　　
　　 There is a saying from our ancestors, not to worry about widowhood but not for unevenness.
　　
　　 In the understanding of many people, this means that one is not afraid of getting a small score, but it is afraid of getting an uneven score.
　　
　　 But is that true?
　　
　　 Obviously not!
　　
　　 The real answer is that I am not afraid of getting less, but I am afraid of getting unfair.
　　
　　 The problem is that the word fair is difficult to say clearly, everyone has everyone’s understanding.
　　
　　 Michael Ashley’s understanding of so-called fairness is that a piece of cake should be shared equally by all the people involved, otherwise it would be unfair to me.
　　
　　 So, after Richard Schudmore elaborated on the reform plan, he immediately stood up and took the lead in raising objections.
　　
"Richard, in the overseas market, we do not have 20 Premier League teams. It is a whole, a signature, composed of 20 teams. In this case, the benefits we have received are justified. Twenty teams should be divided equally. Why adjust the distribution model?"
　　
　　 Michael Ashley’s speech was immediately recognized by several other teams.
　　
　　 There is no doubt that they all feel that they should continue to adopt a split policy.
　　
　　 "Isn't it? When it comes to developing overseas markets, we didn't make much effort. We participated in the preseason and overseas Premier League matches, so why can't we split the points?"
　　
　　 "Richard, you shouldn't want to take care of their interests because of the influence of the giants overseas and the popularity of broadcasters. If so, who will take care of our interests?"
　　
"Isn't it? The Premier League has always paid attention to fairness. According to this new contract, the difference between the top team and the bottom team in the broadcast fee is about 60 million pounds. In this contract, there is only a gap of 30 million pounds, which is obviously widening the gap between the rich and the poor."
　　
"If we continue to lean towards upstream teams in the overseas market policy now, it will undoubtedly further widen the gap between the rich and the poor. By that time, will there be no Premier League or the Premier League? Does it have to be like Real Madrid? Do oligarchic teams like Barcelona and Bayern Munich look good?"
　　
　　 "Huh? Distribution? I want to ask, if there are no mid-lower teams, can their powers be like now, can they afford the Premier League?"
　　
　　 Some of the voices of opposition were more rational, some were more jī, and some even directly cursed their mothers.
　　
　　 Richard Skudmore stood on the stage, also very embarrassed.
　　
　　 "I object!" At this time, Arsenal's CEO Gazidis stood up.
　　
"There is no doubt that we should properly control the gap between the rich and the poor, avoid the emergence of oligarchic teams like La Liga and Bundesliga, and shorten the strength gap between the top team and the downstream teams. The problem is that this should not be Absolutely average!"
　　
　　 Gazidis looked at Michael Ashley, the owner of the Magpies is definitely the most unflattering of the Premier League bosses, and also the biggest thorn in the mouth.
　　
　　 Arsenal has a great market overseas, and reform is definitely a big help to them.
　　
"I would like to ask Mr. Ashley. You are right. In overseas markets, the Premier League is a sign of twenty teams, but what I want to ask is that in the process of developing overseas markets, it is Teams like Barcelona, ​​Arsenal, Manchester United have made more contributions and invested more? Or is it Newcastle?"
　　
　　 Even if Michael Ashley is confident, he dare not deny this issue.
　　
　　 Newcastle is a bit bullish in the UK. When it comes to overseas markets, they are basically finished.
　　
　　 "I believe that the answer doesn't need to be said anymore!" Gazidis watched him not speak, and gave the result himself.
　　
　　 "A few of our teams, in order to develop overseas markets, go overseas to play warm-up matches..."
　　
Michael Ashley suddenly interjected at this time, and sarcastically said, "Who doesn’t know that you have money to play warm-up matches? Miracle Media gives you so much money every season, so much sponsorship and help Without the Premier League’s development of overseas markets, I’m afraid this is the result of your hand in hand?"
　　
　　 There was a sudden chuckle in the conference hall.
　　
　　 Gazidis took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes, you are right, what about the star?"
　　
"We have introduced Higuain, Özil, and other strong teams, and introduced stars with market appeal and influence overseas. For this reason, we are burdened with a much heavier salary burden than the mid-lower team. Don’t you also say that this will not help the overseas market?"
　　
　　 This time Michael Ashley was a little bit troubled.
　　
　　 But this guy is also a soft-shelled turtle. As soon as he turned his mind, he immediately laughed again.
　　
"You brought in stars to improve your competitiveness, to get better rankings, to get more income and share, and you think about it again, how many overseas sponsorships you have, do you suffer? "
　　
　　 As soon as Michael Ashley's voice fell, someone next to him immediately sneered.
　　
　　 "Hehe, that is, if you have the ability, don't bring in stars. Let's play at the same level and see who can beat who!"
　　
　　 "That is, you want to introduce the stars yourself, who forced you?"
　　
　　 But soon, Ed Woodward, the chief executive of Manchester United, also spoke up.
　　
　　 "It is a bit boring for you to say that. If everyone pulls to the same level, can the Premier League still develop? Sponsors and broadcasters are still interested in the Premier League?"
　　
　　 "That is, overseas copyright income should be re-divided. If everyone is unwilling, well, let's shoot two and sell them separately!" Mubarak of Manchester City was also angry.
　　
　　Is this group of guys wanting to shame?
　　
　　 What does it mean to have the ability, don’t you introduce stars?
　　
　　 Isn’t it cheaper to sell well?
　　
　　 "Sell each and sell each, who is afraid of whom?"
　　
　　 "Yes, I have the ability, even the local copyrights are sold separately!"
　　
　　 "That's right, I just scored all the Premier League, everyone has their own way!"
　　
　　Don't say it, Michael Ashley is really fooling around.
　　
　　 "Michael, do you think, each has its own way, who is afraid of whom?"
　　
　　 "Yes, it's a real division, don't cry!"
　　
　　 "Who is crying? If you have the ability, you can divide it!"
　　
　　 "Everyone has something to say, don't hurt your kindness..."
　　
　　 "You have to sit down for me, a newly promoted horse is not qualified to speak!"
　　
　　 "Hey, who do you think you are, show respect, what's the matter with the newly promoted horse? Didn't you just talk about equal treatment? Why did you turn around and discriminate against the newly promoted horse?"
　　
　　 Seeing the chaos at the scene, Richard Scudmore was also helpless.
　　
　　 Obviously, several teams headed by Michael Ashley made it clear that they are going to die on this issue.
　　
　　The reason is very simple. To them, reform or non-reform is a huge income gap.
　　
　　 As a housekeeper, Scudmore was really helpless when he saw the bosses arguing again.
　　
　　 can't do it, it can only look at Yang Huan for help, only to find that Young Master Huan has his head down, as if playing a game.
　　
　　 My goodness, Young Master Huan, when is it? My eyebrows are burning. Are you still playing games?
　　
　　 And the others finally noticed Master Huan, and they all looked over at once.
　　
　　 Isn't it?
　　
　　Everyone was arguing with joy, but Southampton didn't say a word.
　　
　　 "Master Huan, what do you think of Southampton?"
　　
　　 Yang Huan raised his head, glanced at the people on the side of the round table, smiled slightly, "What do you think?"
　　
　　 Richard Skudmore was depressed. This matter was brought up by the young master Huan. Now it is like this. Anyway, I have no choice. You can come out and clean it up by yourself.
　　
　　 "Everyone has very different opinions on the distribution of overseas copyright income. What do you think of Southampton?"
　　
　　 "I didn't look too much!" Yang Huan curled his lips and smiled slightly.
　　
　　 Everyone listened, especially the powerful people, and they were a little disappointed.
　　
　　Master Huan shouldn’t fully support reform at this time? Why do you say that?
　　
　　 Michael Ashley and other people are gloating.
　　
　　 As the saying goes, barefoot people are not afraid to wear shoes, we have nothing, just playing bachelor with you, you bit me?
　　
"However, I personally think that if you have the right, you must have the obligation. Since everyone is committed to developing overseas markets, well, there will be no overseas promotional activities and competitions in the Premier League in the future. Then you must treat them equally. Go to the team and give more opportunities to let a team with huge overseas influence like Newcastle out."
　　
　　 Yang Huan just finished his words, and the audience burst into laughter.
　　
　　 That's it, that's it!
　　
　　 Michael Ashley was immediately embarrassed and gritted his teeth with anger.
　　
　　 But the few clubs that originally supported him are all depressed in my heart.
　　
　　 If you ask them to go overseas to promote events and competitions, who will kill you?
　　
　　 The giant team is out, there is sponsorship, commercial income, and ticket income, at least it will not lose.
　　
　　 But if the mid-lower team went out, it would be difficult to say.
　　
"In addition, I personally think that since it is to treat everyone equally, well, the Premier League should cancel the subsidy policy in youth training and infrastructure from now on, while strictly controlling and reviewing existing Premier League teams. Infrastructure and youth training system, all unqualified teams will all be disqualified from the Premier League!"
　　
　　 As we all know, in the Premier League, the stadiums, training bases and youth training of the giants are quite complete.
　　
　　 Ten years ago, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur were both terrible, but now they have all been remodeled and they are both pretty good.
　　
However, in the Premier League, there are still many teams whose training bases are dilapidated and old. Many teams have incomplete youth training systems. Many teams have terrible home facilities, even the most basic broadcast. The facilities are quite backward.
　　
　　 In the past, the Premier League would draw a portion of the funds every year to subsidize these improvements, such as the renovation and repair of stadium broadcasting facilities.
　　
　　 But if it is cancelled, that is to say, all clubs have to invest themselves.
　　
　　 As for the stadium, training base and youth training system, these are all strictly and clearly stipulated terms.
　　
　　 It can be said that one eye is closed before, but now, well, since egalitarianism is to be practiced, then all must be treated equally, strong teams are not subsidized, and weak teams are not allowed to subsidize.
　　
　　 "It's not fair!" Michael Ashley objected on the spot.
　　
　　 "Why is it unfair?" Yang Huan asked with a sneer.
　　
　　 "You just said that you want to equalize, so if we can do it, why can't you do it? If you can't do this, then what qualifications do you have to talk about equalizing?"
　　
　　 Mubarak nodded again and again, "Master Huan said well!"
　　
　　 "Well said, Master Huan!"
　　
　　 Yang Huan grasped the point that in Southampton's income, ~EbookFREE.me~ broadcast fee income only accounts for about 25%.
　　
　　 Even for Manchester United, Arsenal and other teams, it is about 30 to 35 percent.
　　
　　 But in many mid-lower teams, their broadcast fee income even accounts for 80% or even 90% of their total income. They all rely on this income to support.
　　
　　 Therefore, many upstream teams can do things, but they are difficult to do.
　　
　　 If you follow Yang Huan's proposal, many of them will probably be expelled from the Premier League.
　　
　　 Even Newcastle like Michael Ashley is quite dangerous.
　　
　　 But this is only on the surface.
　　
Yang Huan secretly meant to tell these people, including Michael Ashley, don’t be greedy, it’s about the meaning, redistributing income, for you, there is no loss, just the new contract. The increase in income is just a little bit less.
　　
　　If you really want to be true, it will not benefit anyone.
　　
　　 If it's one shot and two breaks, the giants can live very well everywhere, but the middle and lower teams can go to win the championship, then it will be choking!
　　
　　 Of course, the beating should be moderate.
　　
　　 So, Young Master Huan just gave a stick, and immediately threw another carrot.
　　
　　 This carrot-and-stick trick, he uses it skillfully! (To be continued) [This text is provided by Qihang Update Team@冰山berg123]
