Women's Professional Football League

A short while later, in the manager's office, Kane kept glancing at Julie. He thought he might be hearing things, because the guy sitting in the manager's seat was talking about something quite different from what he had planned.

"Women's Rugby ..." Lin Qi described a "spectacular" scene. "Girls wearing cool clothes and big protective gear running and colliding on the green grass."

"Sweat will cover their skin, they will become the center of attention, people's eyes will change with their every move, and people will cheer for the girls' victory!"

"Think about what kind of scene and picture that was?"

In Lin Qi's simple yet profound description, Mr. Fox, Little Fox, and even Kane all began to unleash their imaginations according to what he said.

In their shared fantasy, it was indeed a magnificent, epic match scene, the mere thought of which would ignite their fighting spirit, ignite their passion, and make their blood boil! The first to come to his senses was Mr. Fox. Perhaps it was related to his age; in fact, he was not old at all, and he was well-maintained, looking only in his forties.

However, in some aspects, one cannot defy age. Unlike Kane, who still has some connection to sports and maintains good physical function, he is not like Little Fox, who is still young and has a natural advantage.

Then Little Fox snapped out of his reverie, his face flushing slightly, followed by Manager Kane.

Mr. Fox nodded. "I think I understand what you mean, but we all know that a game requires two sides. Who are we playing against?"

That's an excellent question. If it's just about watching women run and collide, there are actually more suitable places for people to watch. What Lin Qi said about women's Rugby is that in addition to appreciating the girls' energy, winning and losing are also very important aspects.

The purpose of sports competition is to win. Women are just one part of the embellishment, not the whole, because the whole cannot go far.

"Teams organized by local businesses will spontaneously join in when people see the potential benefits, even though women's Rugby is not covered by Federal sports law."

"Besides these, increasing brand awareness, product endorsements, and the intrinsic value of these players will all become profit centers; people will see these benefits!"

Lin Qi succinctly pinpointed the core factor behind the success of women's Rugby: as a sporting event outside the scope of sports law, its Live Broadcast and rebroadcasting rights do not belong to the United Sports Association. As long as the competition is hyped up, the various rebroadcasting fees alone are enough for everyone to make a lot of money.

Moreover, the cost of supporting female players is much cheaper than that of male players. Women's Rugby is still a wasteland, with no star players. As long as they are paid a reasonable salary, they are willing to sign contracts.

Once they become stars, the organizers will have already made enough money, and they can also make another profit from selling them as prostitutes—a star player trade.

Then fresh blood floods into the market, and a new round of cultivation and the impending harvest will begin again. The earlier you enter this field, the more you will earn.

Mr. Fox continued to expand on Lin Qi's line of thought, coming up with even more ideas and feeling that it was indeed worth a try. In any case, according to Lin Qi, the initial investment wouldn't be too large, and even if it failed, it wouldn't be a big loss.

"We can give it a try..." Mr. Fox made his final statement.

Lin Qi nodded in satisfaction. "You won't regret it..."

Women's Rugby games may initially only be played within the state and a few neighboring states, as businesses need to see the profits and benefits before they will participate.

Then Lin Qi looked at Kane, Kane was slightly taken aback before coming to his senses and quickly stood up, looking somewhat awkward.

"Kane, what are your thoughts on my plan?"

Lin Qi looked at Kane, whose expression was somewhat complicated. He disliked Kane 'Lin Qi style and attitude. In his view, Lin Qi was clearly treating the Football Club as a tool for making money, and that's how capitalists are.

But now the club wants to get back on its feet and has to rely on Lin Qi. This is the first chance in three years to change the status quo, and he can't let it go. Who knows when he'll have to wait again?

He began cautiously to express his opinion, starting with an expression of agreement. "Your idea is excellent, Mr. Lin Qi. I had never considered this before. It is sure to be a sport that attracts a lot of attention."

Indeed, even if there are no winners or losers, just girls dressed in light clothing running and bumping into each other, some people will still be willing to pay a ticket of fifty cents or a dollar to come in and enjoy a period of magnificent "war".

Julie, standing to the side, glanced at Kane with displeasure. She kept her head down and remained silent, seemingly disgusted by Kane's fawning.

Kane, seemingly oblivious, continued in a consultative tone, "But shouldn't we also improve our men's Rugby program?" His eyes held a hint of anticipation. "With your support, we can quickly regain our vitality, and within five years... no, three years, we'll definitely win the state league championship."

The Federal Rugby League in Bayer Federation is divided into three levels and five tiers, with local and national competitions interspersed throughout the season. Rugby league runs from February to November each year, which is the most exciting time of year.

In particular, the final Autumn Championship League is a feast for Rugby fans in the Federal and even the world. Each state's professional league champion plus an All-Star team chosen by the public makes a total of 18 teams that compete in the fall. The high-intensity competition brings in more than 15 million dollars in broadcasting fees for the United Sports Association every year.

In Kane's view, Sabine City's strength lies not in rugby, but in Rugby.

In previous years, the company that supported them brought them many honors, which also made the Rugby atmosphere in Sabine City very good, and various colleges and universities were willing to invest more resources in Rugby than before.

Even some private schools will offer admission to outstanding young people with Rugby talent.

If we can gather some of these outstanding individuals, we can quickly form a fighting force and be ready to go straight to the battlefield at the beginning of next season!

However, all of this is contingent on Lin Qi's consent and his willingness to invest in revitalizing professional sports in Sabine City.

Lin Qi nodded noncommittally. He didn't answer Kane immediately; instead, he turned to Julie and asked, "Ms. Julie, do you have anything to add regarding my plan, or Mr. Kane's plan?"

The team assistant is someone who may seem unimportant, but is actually very important. This job is related to every aspect of the team and every player's daily training, games, and life.

Manager, assistant, coach – this is the club's core trio.

Julie was silent for a moment. Actually, she did have some feelings for Lin Qi. That's the advantage of being handsome. No matter what kind of person you are, as long as you are handsome enough, even if a woman doesn't know you, she will think you are a good person.

But now she doesn't think so anymore; she even feels a little nauseous. After taking two deep breaths, she voices her objection.

"Mr. Lin Qi, is the purpose of women's Rugby ... just to please men?" she asked, her face contorted with hatred. "This is an insult to women, Mr. Lin Qi!"

Lin Qi raised an eyebrow. "You're wrong, Ms. Julie. I have great respect for women, and I know that women have been pursuing equal social treatment and equal rights with men all these years."

"This is not an insult to women. Think about it, in the mainstream sports of the Federal, how many sports have female athletes, or have a complete competition system specifically for female athletes?"

Before Julie could think about it, Lin Qi shook his head. "No!"

"What I need to do now is to give women the utmost respect so that you can also have your own Rugby. I'm shocked that you see this issue this way, and frankly, I'm disappointed..."

Julie wanted to say something; she felt Lin Qi was using a fallacy to change the subject. But before she could reiterate her position and opinion, Lin Qi shrugged. "You're fired. Go to the finance department and collect two months' salary. Then find a job where no one will humiliate you. And remember to close the door when you leave!"
