Bill Gates is not a loyal football fan, but due to market considerations, Microsoft has been cooperating with important sports brands. In the past life, Microsoft made many advances and wanted to cooperate with giants such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Manchester United, Chelsea, and Bayern.

Cooperate to sponsor the team’s home stadium.

There was even an agreement with Real Madrid to provide 10 million US dollars per year to name the Bernabeu Stadium. Of course, this amount of money is far from enough. The additional condition is that Microsoft can use its own data technology to transform the Bernabeu.

However, Real Madrid later found that the relevant technology was not mature enough and gave up this plan.

At this moment, Bill Gates was at Old Trafford, and he raised this topic and said solemnly: "If Manchester United needs a title sponsor for their home stadium, Microsoft can follow up."

Zhou Buqi was a little funny, "Old Trafford?"

"right."

"I'm afraid this is difficult, but..."

"Um?"

"But there is a direction, it must be possible."

Bill Gates became interested, "What is it?"

Zhou Buqi said: "After I took over Manchester United, I also renovated the training base. If Microsoft is interested, they can sponsor the Carrington training base and the reserve team stadium."

After a pause, he glanced at Gates' daughter and added: "Manchester United's women's football team is also very good. You can follow it if you have time. Last year, they almost won the Premier League women's football championship with a complete victory record. Manchester United's women's football team

The home field is the renovated reserve team stadium.”

Bill Gates smiled and said nothing.

This is a bit absurd.

The training base and reserve stadium feel not in line with Microsoft's own positioning.

However, Zhou Buqi also added a new idea after talking.

yes!

Old Trafford's home stadium cannot be named, but Manchester United has other assets! For example, the Carrington training base, and the reserve team stadium that has just been renovated!

These two assets are acceptable for commercial naming.

Well, you can talk to Lawrence later to find new sponsors for Manchester United!

Running a club is just like doing business. You must not be limited. You must constantly look for new profit points to maintain the momentum and vitality of growth.

Bill Gates waved his hand, "What I want to tell you is another thing."

"OK."

Zhou Buqi could basically guess that an American would not have much interest in football.

Bill Gates said: "The 'Instructions' project is a very beautiful idea, I like it very much."
