The King Is Avatar 1068 Ch'ien Tea Green's Sponsorship

Ch'ien Tea Green was a privately owned tea beverage company in City H. The various tea drinks that they produced were best sellers in the country. In City H, it occupied a large market share.

Beverages had an extremely wide range of uses. They could sponsor practically anything. However, for esports, the goods that gained the most benefit from sponsors.h.i.+ps were tech-related products. As a result, the vast majority of team sponsors.h.i.+ps were tech-related products.

Cao Guangcheng said that he had a good recommendation. Chang Xian originally thought that it was a tech-related product, but it turned out to be a tea drink? How could you say that was a great recommendation?

Cao Guangcheng saw Chang Xian's hesitation and obviously knew what he was hesitating about. He smiled: "Go do some research!"

"Okay!" Chang Xian replied and went to look up related information. Since Cao Guangcheng had recommended Dry Tean Green, he would naturally pay particularly close attention to it.

"What do you think?" Cao Guangcheng asked a short while later.

"This Ch'ien Tea Green really is Excellent Era's most faithful sponsor!" Chang Xian was moved. The data showed that Ch'ien Tea Green had sponsored Excellent Era for a good seven years. Starting from season three, Ch'ien Tea Green had been Excellent Era's most loyal sponsor.

"Take a look at this season." Cao Guangcheng said.　　

"Oh?" Chang Xian checked the season nine data. Ch'ien Tea Green was still a sponsor. Although the amount wasn't as high, Excellent Era had been relegated this season, so all their sponsors substantially lowered their sponsors.h.i.+p amounts. That wasn't anything strange, no? 　

"Ch'ien Tea Green still sponsored them during season nine." Cao Guangcheng said.

"Yeah! Most of Excellent Era's sponsors stayed. After all, with Excellent Era's position, these sponsors probably hadn't included any clauses in their contract that would nullify it as soon as they were relegated." Chang Xian said.　

Yes, clauses that cancelled the contract once the team was relegated. Whether it was sponsors or players, these types of automatic clauses would show up. However, those were for mid-tier and bottom-tier teams. For a powerhouse like Excellent Era, adding in that sort of clause was an insult. How could Excellent Era get relegated? Not long before, no one thought it was possible. As a result, whether it was sponsors or players, no one would be concerned about adding in this clause in the contract. It was a groundless fear!

"Haha, the vast majority didn't, but there are exceptions." Cao Guangcheng said.

"Could you mean Ch'ien Tea Green..." Chang Xian realized what Cao Guangcheng was getting at and immediately checked the data.

"We don't have any of the details of the contract here, but I know that the contract between Ch'ien Tea Green and Excellent Era has always included this clause. However, in season nine, even though the contract could be cancelled because of the clause, they did not cease their sponsors.h.i.+p. They only reduced the sponsors.h.i.+p amount. This at least shows their determination in sponsoring Glory!"

Chang Xian nodded his head. Cao Guangcheng's words were reasonable. But after looking at the data some more, he asked again: "But this Ch'ien Tea Green….... Their sponsors.h.i.+p amount isn't really that high!"

"Ch'ien Tea Green is determined to sponsor Glory, yet the sponsors.h.i.+p amount isn't high. What does this mean? It means that there's room for negotiation! After Excellent Era won three champions.h.i.+ps in a row, they fell on the decline. Their performance was just pa.s.sable. But Happy has instantly become famous. Their reputation is rising accordingly. There really is an opportunity for them to get a deal with Ch'ien Tea Green." Cao Guangcheng said.

"You're too right!" Chang Xian was excited. He sincerely hoped the best for Happy. After organizing the information, he immediately called Chen Guo, sending her this information, while stressing the name Ch'ien Tea Green.　

Ch'ien Tea Green…...

Chen Guo grew up in City H. She was very familiar with this name. Saying that she grew up drinking their tea was a bit too much, but she had the circ.u.mstances to. Chen Guo just didn't really like it that much, that's all.

In the beginning, Ch'ien Tea Green was focused solely on tea drinks, but they had expanded their market into all sorts of areas now. Their tea drinks were still their most popular products though, especially in City H. This company's strength didn't need to be mentioned. If Team Happy could get a sponsors.h.i.+p from them, that would be a huge step forward!

Chen Guo asked about everything she could from Chang Xian. After hanging up, she smugly started to prepare her attack.

According to Lou Guanning's a.n.a.lysis, Team Happy just needed to wait for sponsors.h.i.+ps to come knocking on their door. However, Chen Guo wanted to be more proactive.

Ch'ien Tea Green was their first target! Chang Xian had told her who to contact. Chen Guo immediately contacted him. The person on the other end was clearly just an a.s.sistant or secretary responsible for taking calls. After hearing Chen Guo's purpose for calling, the secretary was slightly startled and seemed to ask someone for more instructions. Then, the secretary gave Chen Guo a reply: tomorrow at 9 AM.

Not bad!

The other side had quickly arranged for a meeting. It looked like the other side was very interested in sponsoring them. Chang Xian's recommendation was good. This Ch'ien Tea Green valued sponsoring Glory quite a bit!

Chen Guo excitedly returned to Upper Forest Park and told the news to Ye Xiu.

"Ch'ien Tea Green?" Ye Xiu heard the name and wrinkled his brow.

"What's wrong?" Chen Guo was a bit confused about Ye Xiu's response.

"I'll go with you tomorrow to take a look." Ye Xiu said.

"Oh?"

"How did you think to contact them?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Little Chang recommended them." Chen Guo said.

"LIttle Chang?" Ye Xiu was surprised, "Why did he recommend them?"

Chen Guo told him what Chang Xian said. Ye Xiu nodded his head: "That's reasonable!"

"Yeah! Then let's go tomorrow morning. We can't be late." Chen Guo said. 　　

"Understood." Ye Xiu nodded his head.

Chen Guo excitedly logged into Glory and started playing. As for Ye Xiu, his QQ blinked. He saw a message from Su Mucheng.

"Ch'ien Tea Green?"

"Yeah... we'll take a look tomorrow and then we'll see." Ye Xiu replied.　　

"Okay." Su Mucheng didn't say anything more.

The next morning, Chen Guo dragged Ye Xiu out the door. She didn't want to leave a bad impression on the other side by being late. But when the two arrived at Ch'ien Tea Green, it was only 8:30 AM. After being guided by the receptionist, the two came to Ch'ien Tea Green's external affairs department. The person to receive them was the person who had picked up Chen Guo's call yesterday. Because it wasn't yet the appointment time, the secretary arranged for the two to wait a bit at the lobby.

Everything seemed to be going well, so Chen Guo was very excited.

"External affairs... hm, will we need this type of department in the future?" Chen Guo asked Ye Xiu.

"Of course." Ye Xiu nodded his head.　

Time pa.s.sed. In the blink of an eye, it was 9 AM. Chen Guo was looking forward to it, but then that secretary came back on time with an apologetic look: "Sorry.... Mr. Xia still has some business to take care of. I'll have to ask you two to wait just a bit longer."

"Oh... no worries. We'll wait then. Thanks!" A thread of disappointment flashed across Chen Guo's face, but it disappeared soon. It was just a bit longer. It was nothing.　　

"Then let's wait a bit!" After the secretary left, Chen Guo let out an expression of disappointment and then sat back down.

"This meeting... it's best if you don't put too much hopes on it." Ye Xiu suddenly said.

"Why?" Chen Guo didn't understand.

"Do you know who the Mr. Xia she mentioned is?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Yeah!" Chen Guo nodded her head, "Xia Zhongtian, Ch'ien Tea Green's external affairs director. Ch'ien Tea Green is his Xia family's business. He's the son of Ch'ien Tea Green's CEO Xia Dongnan. More importantly, he's a huge Glory fan."

"Correct." Ye Xiu nodded his head, "He's a Glory fan. What's more, he's a very loyal Team Excellent Era fan."

"Oh?" Chen Guo was slightly surprised. Even though she hadn't realized anything, she could feel that Ye Xiu was hinting at something.

"How much do you know about Ch'ien Tea Green's sponsors.h.i.+p for Excellent Era?" Ye Xiu asked.

"They've been sponsors for seven years, starting from season three of the Glory Alliance. Ch'ien Tea Green's sponsors.h.i.+p for Excellent Era has never stopped even when Excellent Era was relegated this season. Despite having a clause saying that they could null the contract after the team was relegated, they insisted on sponsoring them and only reduced the sponsors.h.i.+p by a bit." Chen Guo said.　

"Correct..." Ye Xiu nodded his head, "Then what if I told you that Ch'ien Tea Green's sponsors.h.i.+p for Excellent Era is actually Xia Zhongtian's personal decision. What would you think?"

"Personal decision?" Chen Guo was puzzled.　　

"Yes... in reality, the company Ch'ien Tea Green doesn't have much interest in sponsoring a Glory team. However, Xia Zhongtian is a big fan of Glory and also a loyal Excellent Era fan, so he stood his ground against everyone else and insisted on sponsoring Excellent Era. Ch'ien Tea Green is the Xia family's business, so the department turned a blind eye towards it and approved his request. You can say that this sponsors.h.i.+p isn't a business contract, but rather a fan's personal support for the team." Ye Xiu said.

"Why do you know so much?" Chen Guo was astonished.　

"h.e.l.lo? If I remember correctly, I was once Team Excellent Era's former captain?" Ye Xiu said.

"So you're saying that Ch'ien Tea Green isn't interested in supporting any team other than Excellent Era?" Chen Guo said.

"Yes." Ye Xiu nodded his head.

"Then why did Little Chang strongly recommend Ch'ien Tea Green?"　　

"Uh, he's probably too young and didn't understood this crux of the matter!" Ye Xiu said, "From the surface, a sponsors.h.i.+p from Ch'ien Tea Green truly has a lot of potential."

"Then why were we called over?"

"I'm puzzled about that too." Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo had originally been excited, but now she was nervous. In the blink of an eye, it was 10 AM. In terms of their appointment time, they had waited for an entire hour.

"Mr. Xia, they've already waited for an hour. Shouldn't you meet them?" In Xia Zhongtian's office, the secretary asked.

"No time. I'm busy. Have them wait some more." Xia Zhongtian didn't even glance at his secretary. He just looked at the screen as sounds of mouse-clicking and keyboard-tapping sounded incessantly.
