Chapter 44 The Rural Miracle

After breaking into the quarter-finals of the German Cup, Hoffenheim has gained a lot of attention with its huge exposure.

On the stage of the German Cup, it is unique for a low-level team to break into the quarter-finals of the German Cup. Hoffenheim can be said to have created a new record for the German Cup.

Especially knowing that this is just a country club style, they naturally attract more attention.

'Country Miracle! '

‘Storm in the South! '

'Black and red carnival! '

and many more...

All German media are paying attention to Hoffenheim.

Under this kind of influence, Zhang Xian will naturally not miss a good opportunity. He tried his best to promote various departments and show Hoffenheim to the outside world.

At the same time, rent an advertising car with a number of slack screens, and tour the Rhine-Neckar area to broadcast various highlights of Hoffenheim's goals.

Before entering the high-level league and obtaining broadcast rights, Hoffenheim had great limitations.

Now they are at best familiar faces, and their goal is still the fan market in Rhine-Neckar County.

In addition to the live broadcast vehicles, Hoffenheim even invested in advertising on the large LED screen in Heidelberg, the capital of the Rhine-Neckarka.

24 hours a day touring broadcast Hoffenheim-related events.

Zhang Xian knows that strike while the iron is hot, the current Hoffenheim is the best opportunity to enter the Rhine-Neckar fan market.

With a series of operations by Hoffenheim, Hoffenheim has gradually become more well-known in the Rhine-Neckar region, and more popular with fans and the public.

"20 roving advertising vehicles, 24-hour LED advertising space, signing cooperative publicity contracts with town halls and media in various places, etc... It costs a lot of money for such a set, right?"

Rhine Barmann's general manager Hulsen said with a look of melancholy.

They are also the top leaders of the club. Seeing how big Zhang Xian is playing now, he spends millions of dollars at every turn. Looking at himself, he has to search and search for hundreds of thousands of calculations.

It's really maddening to compare people to people!

"Are you planning to completely conquer the fan market in the Rhine-Neckar region?" Hauersen asked.

Zhang Xian nodded slightly and shook his head again: "I have this idea, but not now."

"Aren't you afraid that other clubs will join forces to boycott Hoffenheim?" Howersen asked.

Regarding this, Zhang Xian smiled and said, "The Rhein-Neckar County has a huge fan market, and most clubs don't have more than 10% fan recruitment. I just want the strength of those fans who have not been integrated. There is no conflict of interest, why boycott Hoffenheim?"

"If it's out of jealousy, then I admit it, it means that Hoffenheim is doing well."

Howlson shook his head.

He knew what Zhang Xian meant. In fact, they didn't really resist the idea.

Hoffenheim's move did not really touch their interests, or that they are no longer an order of magnitude.

While many small clubs are jumping up and down for the town's resources and the fan market, Hoffenheim's strategic goals have spread to the entire Rhine-Neckar region.

Envy is envy after all, but Hauersen understands that Rhine Barmann is not Hoffenheim and cannot achieve this level.

It is better to integrate an internal force to supply Hoffenheim to make Hoffenheim bigger and stronger, and many small clubs survive around Hoffenheim. This is also a good way.

"What's your business this time?" Zhang Xian raised his head and said, "If you're on loan, Hoffenheim is fighting on two fronts, and we don't have any extra resources for you."

In this regard, Hulsen waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not this question. I'm here on behalf of many clubs in the Rhine-Neckar region."

Oh?

Zhang Xian raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Cooperation?"

Hauersen chuckled, imitating Zhang Xian, clapped his hands together and said, "Win-win!"

According to Howersen, the Doga clubs in the Rhine-Neckar region have united and want to sign a long-term contract with Hoffenheim.

Cooperation in various fields, as well as preferential policy conditions for loan and player transfer are designed in the contract.

To put it bluntly, it is a strategic alliance, and I want to make some benefits from Hoffenheim.

And what they can give Hoffenheim is its special status in the Rhine-Neckar region.

Just like Bayern's Munich 1900 dominates the entire state, Hoffenheim will be pushed by many small clubs to the leading position in the Rhine-Neckar region.

First supply resources to Hoffenheim, fatten it up, and slowly absorb some nutrients from Hoffenheim.

Zhang Xian is very interested in this kind of cooperation.

On the one hand, this kind of cooperation can avoid the situation of brain drain, causing outstanding players to go to other states' divisions.

At the same time, it can better protect the development of Hoffenheim and many small clubs.

In fact, at the beginning, they chose San Galio, the Bundesliga team.

But San Galo doesn't seem to have any interest in this. In other words, she is not optimistic about the youth training force within Baden-Wurttemberg, and is more keen on buying mercenaries or its own youth training system to add fresh blood.

In this case, many small clubs can only retreat and choose Hoffenheim.

Hoffenheim has developed rapidly in recent years, and its magnitude has surpassed many Bundesliga teams and is on par with Bundesliga teams.

Fully meet the conditions of the 'big boss'.

The reason why St. Galio refused is entirely because this thing will not see results in the short term.

Need to develop slowly.

In addition to some necessary contract conditions, it is also necessary to provide support funds of "2 million euros" to many small teams every year.

But the corresponding condition is that Hoffenheim has the convenience of exchanging players from small teams.

At the beginning, it may be very tasteless, but as time goes by, when many small teams have become accustomed to relying on Hoffenheim, it is not up to them what to do and how to do it.

It can be said that Hoffenheim can win the right to speak in the entire Rhine-Neckar region in one fell swoop.

If it was Hoffenheim before, Zhang Xian might have hesitated.

But now Hoffenheim has met the requirements of Alpha Thiem, and they are actively convincing the board of directors, and the situation is good.

After Qatar Investment Group settled in Hoffenheim.

It's not about being rich anymore, they are very, very, very 'rich'!

"Find a time, call the managers of other teams, and let's have a good discussion together."

Hearing Zhang Xian's reply, Halson looked very happy and said, "Okay, I'll inform them right away."

After Halson left, Zhang Xian got up from his desk, walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, and looked down at the lively scene in the training base.

In three years, Hoffenheim has changed a lot.

This club is moving towards the goal set by Zhang Xian step by step.

Boom!

There was a knock on the door.

Neumann pushed the door open, and she looked at Zhang Xian and shouted crisply: "Mr. Director, someone from your family has come to see you."

Zhang Xian turned his head and showed doubts.

at home?

After a while, two Chen Chu and Chu Wei, who were wearing fox hunting sports overalls, walked in.

They looked very happy when they saw Zhang Xian sitting in the office.

Chen Chu took the lead and said, "Mr. Zhang, long time no see!"

Zhang Xian thought for a moment, then said, "We...have seen each other?"

Forehead....

Chen Chu was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and smiled; "Ah! I think you should have forgotten that I was the reporter who showed you the way at the old jazz's banquet."

Zhang Xian suddenly realized that he did have a little impression after saying this.

After Zhang Xian invited the two to a seat, he personally poured them a cup of tea.
