World Cup and digital currency
1. The 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan:
(1) Goldman Sachs securities published a report on the world cup and the economy in June 2002, saying that the football level of the world's richest countries is also very high. In 2002, six of the seven major instrial countries all entered the finals of the world cup. The GDP of these countries accounted for 84% of the global GDP, which shows that football is closely related to the economy
(2) the good performance of Japanese stock market in 2002 reflects that many people are looking forward to Japan jumping out of the economic downturn with the help of the world cup
(3) in 2001, the Financial Times published an analysis of HSBC. It was found that since 1966, the stock performance of the countries that won the world cup has outperformed the global index by more than 9%. However, ring this period, Britain, Germany and France all won the championship as host countries
(4) the advertising agency of Japan Dentsu pointed out that the world cup can bring Japan 300 billion yen in revenue. If the Japanese team can qualify in the group stage, it will bring more than 350 billion yen in revenue
(5) the Preparatory Committee of the world cup in South Korea also pointed out that hosting the world cup has brought the country 880 billion won in revenue and created 350000 jobs< (1) stock market:
the impact of the world cup on the stock market, the most prominent case in 2002. At that time, South America was suffering from the "Argentina financial crisis" that began in 2001, and Brazil's stock market also appeared the precursor of the crisis. However, Brazil's success played an important role in the stability of the domestic stock market. On the contrary, Argentina is out of the game too early and the economic crisis intensifies. This country, known as "the richest man in South America", has not yet got rid of the nightmare of economic crisis
(2) after analyzing the trend of global stock market in the four years since the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan, fidelity listed the return ratio of the stock market in the countries where the top 32 teams in the world cup are located. At the same time, securities analysts also suggested that investors can choose to invest in Ukraine (588%), Saudi Arabia (444%), Argentina (418%), Czech Republic (277%) and Brazil (240%) with the highest returns ring the world cup. Several consulting firms have advised investors to choose the third world stock market as much as possible
(3) in the 2006 World Cup, all the eight major economic powers in Western Europe were shortlisted. In addition to Poland, Czech Republic and Croatia, which have the fastest economic recovery, the major European stock markets are generally optimistic about the economic trend of all countries ring the world cup. The possibility of overlap between a brilliant world cup and a bleak world financial market is very limited. The most popular animal in Germany is the bear, but the global stock market in June will never be a bear market< 3. 2010 World Cup in South Africa:
(1) emerging markets, BRICs, and Vista, including Vietnam, Indonesia, South Africa, Turkey and Argentina, also have great potential. This time, South Africa's economy is expected to go up to the next level with the help of the world cup. Some studies predict that the world cup will bring good economic income to the host country. South Africa has spent $2.6 billion to build stadiums, improve transportation facilities and arrange opening and closing ceremonies, but it can get huge economic returns< (2) daily consumption:
according to Jim O'Neill's calculation, the consumption of fans who want to watch the ball in the bar and buy new national team jerseys is expected to reach 360 million pounds; If you watch football at home, the old TV will be kicked out of sight and replaced with LCD TV with large screen, which will contribute 620 million pounds to the economy; Just gardening furniture and barbecue racks can sell for 62 million pounds. If England can make it through to the group stage, British retailers will earn 987 million pounds. If they reach the final, the British will spend 874 million pounds on catering alone
(3) sponsors:
meanwhile, for Umbro, the sponsor of England's jerseys, the more opportunities for stars to perform on the field, the more opportunities for brand exposure. This British local brand, which is graally encroached by Nike and Adidas, cherishes the exhibition platform of the world cup. At present, Umbro's England red shirt is popular among fans. The 40 pound shirt has been sold out in many places. However, it is still too early for Umbro to cheer for the world cup, because the lesson that Umbro's share price fell 2.3% on the second day after England lost the European Cup in 2008 is still fresh in my mind. At that time, England's jerseys were sold for 5 pounds a piece, and the sales of Umbro's England related procts remained sluggish for a year.
what is the "World Cup"? I'm afraid many people will rush to answer: the best football match
in fact, any single international sports organization will regularly hold world-wide competitions, such as the world table tennis championships and the world basketball championships. But the "World Cup" only means "football". You have to admit that it's so awesome that other sports can't match it
how good is it? It can be said that only the football "World Championships" can be held for one month, twice as long as the Olympic Games
in a month, the world cup is like a money printing machine, which makes FIFA a a lot of money. According to incomplete statistics, FIFA's revenue will exceed US $8 billion ring the current world cup. FIFA's revenue is mainly composed of broadcasting rights sales, manufacturer sponsorship, and World Cup related proct sales. Among them, the revenue of TV broadcasting rights is 2.7 billion US dollars, the sponsorship of manufacturers is about 2 billion US dollars, and the sales of authorized brand procts is about 4 billion US dollars
in September 2008, according to China Economic Weekly, ring the period of 2005-2008 when Beijing hosted the Olympic Games, the total revenue of the International Olympic Committee's TV broadcasting rights was 1.737 billion US dollars, and the total revenue of the top program (the Olympic Games partner program) was 866 million US dollars. The total revenue of the two programs was less than 3 billion yuan, even if some other revenue was added, The International Olympic Committee's income cannot be compared with that of South Africa< As we all know, the Olympic Games has become a platform to show the comprehensive strength of a country. On the one hand, let the whole world see the development and growth of the host country, on the other hand, the indirect benefits of the host country can not be counted. In the past, the world cup was more dominated by competition, with little political color. But starting from South Africa, the world cup is also quietly in line with international standards. You know, South Africa itself is one of the richest countries in Africa and the "leader" of African economy
if South Africa's economy restarts its recovery, it will certainly play a crucial role in the development and rejuvenation of the African continent< According to the recent forecast of the International Monetary Fund, the economic growth rate of South Africa in 2010 may be close to 3%. Among them, the world cup will bring 0.5% economic growth to South Africa. Although South Africa has invested US $4.3 billion in hosting the world cup, it is expected to receive an economic return of US $13 billion. UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon once said that the "Hercules Cup" is coming to the African continent for the first time. The world cup in South Africa will become a "catalyst" for Africa's development, so Africa will usher in a renaissance
it seems that in terms of direct income and indirect income to the host country, the world cup is absolutely the only single world-class event that can "challenge" the Olympic Games. PK's "harvest" the "presidential fans" in the world cup
the charm and influence of the world cup, I believe to see the names of these "big fans", the answer is self-evident
the names or figures of South African President Zuma, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, US President Obama, Brazilian President Lula, Chilean President Pinera, South Korean President Lee Myung Bak, Nigerian President Lulu, Honran President LoVo have undoubtedly become the biggest highlights of this world cup. On the stage of the world cup, these high-ranking politicians have a common title fans. Looking at all the sports events in the world, it seems that even the Olympic Games can not enjoy such high treatment and attention as the world cup
among the many "presidential fans", the one with the highest appearance rate and the most active is undoubtedly South African President Zuma. Although the "host" South Africa's World Cup tour has ended, it has not affected South Africans' enthusiasm for the world cup. Zuma has repeatedly appealed to the public in public, "this world cup will never end with South Africa's exit, and its influence will continue even after the final whistle. In addition to supporting our national team, we have a greater responsibility. We are hosting this competition on behalf of the African continent
before the opening of the world cup in South Africa, US President Barack Obama, Vice President Biden and former President Bill Clinton formed a "presidential trio" to entertain the US national football team members who will play in the world cup in South Africa at the White House. Obama even joked with the players, "there's always a guy in the Oval Office staring at the sports station to see how you play." In the crucial game of the U.S. group, Clinton not only appeared in the stands like a fan, but also witnessed the "winner" of the U.S. team in the stoppage time. After the game, Clinton was still in a state of shock in an interview with the media. "At that moment, it was too dramatic. My voice was hoarse. I was very calm until we scored. But when it got into the net, I said to myself, "thank God for the extra time." Clinton also took the initiative to "break the news" to the media that after the game, he went to the U.S. team's dressing room to celebrate the promotion victory with all the players, and had a drink or two of beer with the players. According to South African President Zuma, "if the US team enters the quarter finals, US President Obama will consider it; If the U.S. team enters the semi-finals, then he may come; But if the United States can make it to the final, then he will be there
after the South Korean team successfully reached the top 16, South Korean President Lee Myung Bak also gave high praise to the South Korean players for the first time, saying that "Taiji fighters" gave the South Korean people courage and hope, "pursue their goals with dreams and never give up on challenges, which is the indomitable spirit of Taiji fighters in the face of challenges." Talking about the next knockout, Lee encouraged the players to say, "the dream is just a dream, but the dream can become a reality. I am looking forward to your promotion to the final eight with all the citizens of South Korea. We all see your sweat and efforts."
unlike many presidents who play "fans" in the world cup, French President Nicolas Sarkozy is not in the mood to watch the ball. France's constant "infighting" scandal, so that Sarkozy has been playing the role of "fire" players. After the media reported that Anelka was expelled from the team for abusing the coach and the French team leader submitted his resignation, French President Nicolas Sarkozy asked the sports minister to solve the "civil strife" of the French team in the shortest time. However, the French team's "civil strife" has not been eased by the intervention of Nicolas Sarkozy. Even before the last game, it was revealed that the team had players to strike. The image of French football is in crisis with the French team out. After France's disastrous defeat, Nicolas Sarkozy met French star Henry, who returned from South Africa, for the first time to listen to Henry's report on the world cup. It is reported that Nicolas Sarkozy has ordered the cancellation of "financial awards" for French team members and coaching staff members. In addition, Sarkozy also announced that a football "three-level meeting" will be held in October this year to declare war on the chronic disease of French football.
1. The gold content is different
both belong to the three World Championships, and the scale of the world championships is larger
according to the understanding of the table tennis world, the world cup and the finals of the International Table Tennis Federation professional round robin are minor examinations, the World Table Tennis Championships are secondary examinations, and the Olympic Games are major examinations
There are 64 matches in the world cup, including 48 group matches, 8 1 / 8 finals, 4 1 / 4 finals, two semi-finals, one third and four final, and one champion and runner up final
since 2003, indivial and group events have been separated. One year is the indivial event, the next year is the group event, and two years is one session
3, different coverage
the types of the two events overlap, and the types of sports covered by the world championships are generally more than those of the world cup
{rrrrrrr}
extended information:
specific competition system of the World Cup:
the competition schele of the world cup is divided into two stages: the preliminary stage and the final stage. The preliminary stage of the world cup is divided into six regions, namely Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, North America and Oceania, Each division needs to formulate preliminary competition rules according to the actual situation of its own division, while each FIFA member country (region) team that has signed up for the world cup needs to conct preliminary competition in its own division to compete for the place to enter the final stage of the world cup
there are 32 places in the final stage of the world cup. In the final stage, the host country can directly obtain the places in the final stage. In addition to the host country, other places are allocated by FIFA according to the football level of each preliminary competition area. Different preliminary competition areas will have different numbers of places in the final stage
I'm glad to answer for you,
it must be the world cup,
the world cup is the most golden event at the national team level
The differences in level, number of players and competition system are as follows:
1. Different levels:
the European Football Championship, also known as the "European Cup", is the highest level national football match held by the European Football Association and participated by member countries of the European Football Association
the FIFA World Cup (abbreviated as "the World Cup") is a football match with the highest honor, the highest standard, the highest competitive level, the highest popularity and influence in the world. It is also known as the two top sports events in the world together with the Olympic Games. The world cup has a global audience of more than 3.5 billion
On September 26, 2008, the European Football Association announced that from 2016, the number of participating teams in the final stage of the European Football Championship will be expanded to 24there are 32 places in the final stage of the world cup. In the final stage, the host country can directly obtain the places in the final stage. In addition to the host country, other places are allocated by FIFA according to the football level of each preliminary competition area. Different preliminary competition areas will have different numbers of places in the final stage
3. The competition system is different:
the organizer of the European Championship directly enters the final week, and the other teams are divided into several groups, each group carries on the preliminary competition. The round robin scoring system will be adopted in the group, with 16 teams from the first and second place in each group being able to enter the final week
the world cup schele is divided into two stages: the preliminary stage and the final stage. The preliminary stage of the world cup is divided into six regions, namely Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, North America and Oceania. Each region needs to formulate the preliminary rules according to the actual situation of the region
and the representative teams of FIFA member countries (regions) who have signed up for the world cup need to compete in their own competition area for the places to enter the final stage of the world cup
The world cup knockout and the Champions League knockout both belong to the pattern of 16 qualified teams fighting each other after the top 32 group stage. The main differences are as follows:
first, the Champions League is the home and away knockout, while the world cup is the match that determines the outcome of a single match, so there is a saying that "the number of goals in the away match" in the Champions League
Second, the Champions League is to draw lots again after each round of the knockout, while the world cup is a pattern of group a first vs. group B second, group B first vs. group a second, which is divided into "upper half" and "lower half". After passing the group stage, you can probably know who the next opponents are
to say fair, anyway, the rules are set in advance, and there is no random change in the middle of the process, which is not unfair. It's just that the "re draw" mode of the Champions League has added a lot of accidental factors - of course, you can say that the draw can also be scheled in advance, but in fact, there is no need to book in advance, because there are requirements of "grading" and "avoiding the same League", we can still guess a reason
