BEIJING Jonathan Ericsson Red Wings Jersey , Nov. 26 (Xinhuanet) -- Although retired from sports, David Beckham still commands huge attention.
Hours before he showed up in a conference room at luxury hotel and casino resort Venetian Macao last week, journalists from about 500 media houses had already waited in long lines to get a close-up position to the celebrity.
When he appeared, there was no sound except clicking from countless photoflashes.
But this time, Beckham presents himself as businessman Darren Helm Red Wings Jersey , rather than an entertainment celebrity, as he announced a long-term partnership between his company Beckham Ventures and global resort developer Las Vegas Sands, which owns Venetian Macao.
He has retired as a pro athlete and will focus on business and charity. Beckham emphasizes: "I'm extremely excited.
"My business started a few years ago, but my focus was on playing (soccer) at that time. Now I'm becoming more of a businessman."
He also said leadership, teamwork and hard work are important in sports Martin Frk Red Wings Jersey , and it's the same with business.
The partnership between one of Asia's most dynamic businesses and the global star, organizers say, will be based on the development of dining, retail and leisure concepts at Sands China properties in Macao and Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.
Of the partnership, Beckham comments Luke Glendening Red Wings Jersey , "The Sands team has created amazing resorts in Singapore and Macao. The scale, vision and caliber in all that they do are impressive. I am very excited to be working with them to develop a range of new business ideas in a part of the world that I love spending time in - that is full of optimism and growth."
The excitement on the partnership is obviously mutual.
Michael Leven, president and chief operating officer of Las Vegas Sands Corp, says he believes a partnership with Beckham will help the company develop its global brand icon, and will provide Beckham with the same benefit.
"We have billions of dollars invested in our own global Henrik Zetterberg Red Wings Jersey , iconic brands and we clearly understand the importance of growing and sustaining those brands over time," Leven says.
"We are very excited about the partnership and we fully expect it to grow in the years to come, especially as we aggressively explore opportunities to further expand our presence in Asia."
Beckham, of course, still has star power as an entertainment celebrity Anthony Mantha Red Wings Jersey , and at the end of the press conference, Beckham made his handprints and signature for posterity for the resort's Bridge of Stars Gallery.

Have you ever wondered why back pain solutions focus so much on your weight? There is not a back therapy solution out there that will offer you permeant relief from back pain if you remain overweight. Remaining over weight and seeking back pain solutions is like giving your car gas after you have applied the emergency brakes. Sooner rather than later you will face the same problems again. Why is this?
