Nike sign ten years' contract with CSL Business company as main kit sponsor, the sponsor price add to 200m USD for ten years, that is 20m a year, but actually the 2009 season CSL will only recieve 15m as Beijing Guo'an & Dalian Shide will wear Adidas, Tianjin Teda & Shaanxi Chanba will wear Mizuno, as their contract with those companies are not finished yet. form 2010 all CSl clubs will wear Nike.

last season CCTV paid 6m CNY for CSL Braodcast, that is about 1m USD at that time. and the SMEG price is about 14m CNY a year I think.
