God of NBA point guards

Chapter 260 The Deal Is Officially Closed
The next day, on the 15th, Zhou Quan and the postman Karl Malone stood in the ring.

The famous villain in the NBA did train in professional boxing, but his upper body is too strong, not stretchable, and has poor flexibility, resulting in slow hitting speed, no explosive power, and insensitive dodging. Where is Zhou Quan's opponent?
Zhou Quan didn't deal with the postman so quickly, he fought for nearly one round and beat the postman to the brim before he KO'd the postman.

After the match, he officially announced that from now on, he would not fight professional boxing matches with rubbish professional boxers like the postman. At the same time, he announced that he would officially enter the professional boxing world, and soon he would fight the professional boxer Polish bad boy Andrew Go lotta.

This news made his reputation as a cross-border madman even more resounding, even because his opponent is a Polish bad boy, this is a boxer who has a certain reputation in the Olympic Games and European professional boxing, so he is also famous in Europe head.

Jordan watched the game live and saw the postman being beaten into a pig's head. He left with a black face, and took his family to travel around the world the next day.

On the 16th, Cadillac signed a contract with Zhou Quan.

This signing immediately put Zhou Quan on the headlines of the world's major media, bringing a worldwide exposure.

And as Cadillac's advertisement spreads all over the world, his popularity around the world will continue to grow predictably.

But the next day, Zhou Quan received a blow, and Christina Yeri proposed to break up with him.

The reason is simple. Yeri is getting older, and what he wants is a family, a marriage, and a stable relationship, which he can't provide now, so breaking up has become inevitable.

On the 18th, Zhou Quan, who had lost his love again, left Los Angeles and went to Xiangcheng accompanied by Philip.

……

Xiangcheng is an international financial center, an international metropolis, and a shopping center. All of Zhou Quan's international brands have branches here, especially ten first-line and top-level endorsements, so this time he will stay here for a week.

This time is different from last year when no one knew him, but this time he landed in Xiangcheng as an NBA superstar, an international sports star, a cross-border madman, and more than a dozen international first-line brand spokespersons.

When he was still in Los Angeles, these sponsors had already been promoted in the media of Xiangcheng, and the attention was very high.

Xu Xiaoming is also very good. From the moment he landed, ATV has followed up and reported the whole process.

On the night of landing, Cadillac specially held a welcome party for him, inviting a large number of celebrities and rich people from Xiangcheng.

Xu Xiaoming even brought over almost all the first- and second-tier stars from ATV, and even invited two superstars from ATV, Zhang Guorong and Li Ming.

"Tiequan, hello, I'm Wang Zuxian, your fan."

Wang Zuxian walked up to Zhou Quan with a clever smile and held out his hand.

"Hi Xiaoqian." Zhou Quan blurted out.

"Pfft!"

Wang Zuxian couldn't help laughing.

"Tekken, I have something to tell you."

"What did you say."

"It's hard to talk about here, you come out with me."

Wang Zuxian pulled Zhou Quan to a secluded place outside the door, where her assistant was waiting. She took a pair of Tekken IIs and a pen from the assistant, and handed them to Zhou Quan with anticipation on her face.

"you……"

No one had ever asked him to sign on such an occasion, and Zhou Quan was a little dumbfounded. Could it be that Xiaoqian wanted to pull him out.

Wang Zuxian's assistant already wanted to cover his face and retreat, but it was none of her business, she refused to listen.

The two exchanged contact information and became friends.

The next day, Zhou Quan participated in the business activities of the three endorsement brands, and there was another party in the evening, busier than when he was playing games.

On the 20th, Philip received a notification from the Pistons that the negotiations with the Supersonics were over. The Supersonics chose to back down and gave up the Rainman.

The Supersonics paid Gary Payton + Sean Kemp + Ricky Pierce, and the Pistons paid Zhou Quan + Rodman, three for two.

Phillip said: "The Supersonics added Ricky Pierce in the transaction. He is the leader of the team. This is the management that vacated the position of leader for you."

"Let's see how the team strengthens," Zhou Quan said.

"Zhou, you have only played for two years, and you are not yet a veteran, so you cannot sign a veteran's contract in advance. The new contract must be signed after the end of the season."

"no problem."

The new contract provided by the Sonics will start in 94, that is, after the end of next season, and end after the 99 season, with a total period of 5 years.

The starting salary is US$620 million, the second year is 950 million, the third year is 1450 million, the fourth year is 1950 million, and the last year is player option, 2350 million. The total contract value is as high as 7320 million US dollars, and the average annual salary is as high as more than 400. million dollars, which is about the same as the salary cap for the new season.

However, this contract has not been announced, after all, it has not yet been signed.

The American media has mixed opinions on this deal, and opinions are not uniform.

Some praised the Sonics for completing one of the best deals, such as the Los Angeles media.

Some people think that the Supersonics did a stupid thing. The lineup of Gary Payton and Sean Kemp has reached the Western Conference Finals. Now they are directly traded. If the Supersonics do not reach the finals next season, this deal will It just failed.

After Ricky Pierce and Gary Payton Sean Kemp received the news, they felt like a bolt from the blue and couldn't believe it.

"Are they crazy, we're all in the Western Conference finals and they traded us, they must be crazy, the damn management is crazy, these beasts, this shit... I won't let them go, the Sonics It is my mortal enemy, mortal enemy! Damn it! And Iron Fist, what is so great about him, I will win him sooner or later, I will do what I say, he is not so great..."

Gary Payton didn't show any mercy, and directly sprayed the Supersonic management in front of the media, swearing a lot, even Zhou Quan didn't let it go.

These have nothing to do with Zhou Quan, he is very busy in Xiangcheng, attending business activities during the day and attending the sponsor's party at night.

On the 26th, all business activities were over, and there was no party that night, so he invited Zeng Huaqian out to play.

He has met Zeng Huaqian three times at the party in the past few days, and it feels good. It just so happens that the other party is in a window of time and just in time to pursue her.

Of course Zeng Huaqian knew what Zhou Quan meant. She talked with Liang Chaowei for six years, and Chen Tingwei for another three years. She just broke up at the beginning of this year and vowed never to find someone inside the circle again. Zhou Quan is an outsider. , is also an American sports superstar, and is the spokesperson of so many first-line brands, and the spokesperson of top luxury cars like Cadillac.

In order to pursue Zeng Huaqian, Zhou Quan stayed in Xiangcheng for more than two days, causing the media and paparazzi in Xiangcheng to hang out around the two of them, and he left after the relationship was further improved, and made an appointment to meet in Los Angeles next time.

On the 29th, Zhou Quan returned to Changsha.

The family has moved to a new house in the east district, and bought four sets. In a community, he lives alone in one set.

This time around, many leaders from the East District to the city, as well as from their hometowns, have come to the door with only one purpose, the dollar.

Zhou Jianguo was promoted to deputy bureau last year, and his work unit wouldn't let him go, and the district and city wouldn't let him go. He couldn't do anything about it.

Zhou Quan has no investment in the United States. After paying taxes, he left a sum of money to buy villas and sports cars. Now all the money in his hand adds up to 1000 million US dollars left. The money has been brought back to the country and given to the city. In exchange for 600 million, the East District and the hometown city each exchanged 200 million.

At twelve o'clock on this day, at midnight on the 29th, US time, the NBA's trade freeze period ended.

In the evening, that is, in the morning in the United States, a series of transactions occurred.

The heaviest deal was of course Zhou Quan's deal.

With this transaction, the American media agreed that the East-West alliance will reach a new balance, and the original pattern of the alliance, which is strong in the east and weak in the west, will be changed.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar accepted an interview with the media and said when talking about the deal: "Although the Supersonics traded Ricky Pierce and the three, the old foundation is still there. There are still many good players, and they can also be strengthened. Iron Fist, I think the Sonics in the new season should continue to maintain the strength of the first-line team.

The addition of Iron Fist will definitely bring about huge changes for the Sonics. He is a big-core player with the ball. He will change the team from the tactical level. I think the coaching staff should be prepared for this. "

Supersonics coach George Karl, who is on vacation in Miami, also accepted an interview with the media. He did not express a clear attitude towards the transaction, but said:

"The lineup has changed too much. We have lost the three main players, which is almost equivalent to rebuilding. Iron Fist is not an ordinary player. His style of play determines that the team's basic tactics will undergo head-changing changes, so I will end my team immediately. I'm going to work ahead of schedule during the holidays."

Jordan, who is traveling around the world, has arrived in Chile on a large cruise ship owned by the owner of the Heat. He accepted media interviews after docking and said:
"Even if the Supersonics have traded the three main players, the addition of Iron Fist and Big Worm will not cause much loss to the team's strength.

This is easy to understand. Rodman can make up for the inside defense and rebounding, but the offense is not good enough. The Supersonic's inside lacks a strong attack on the basket.

But Sean Kemp's scoring average is not high, so his scoring is not very important, and a little reinforcement can make up for the piece of scoring after he left.

The Iron Fist is much stronger than the Gloves. He is better than Gary Payton in terms of assists, offense, and even defense. He can not only make up for Gary Payton's position behind him, but also strengthen the offensive and defensive strength of the Supersonics' back line.

Most importantly, his ball-handling threat is ten times greater than Gary Payton's ball-handling threat. Opponents even need to double-team him on the outside, but they will never double-team Gary Payton. This is an immeasurable Advantage. "

"Michael, do you think the Sonics can become a championship-level team in the new season?" the reporter asked.

"They are now."

……

On the 30th, Zhou Quan's family returned to their hometown.

He grew up here, and this time he came back to donate a rural road and three rural primary schools to the village.

Not only the cost of going to school, but also a batch of teaching equipment and the cost of free lunch are included, and the teaching staff is provided by the locality.

In the future, he will also spend a sum of money every year to maintain the cost of the free lunch and subsidize some teachers' expenses.

On the 2nd, the family went to Wudang Mountain to visit grandfather Lin Changfeng.

After going up the mountain, the Taoist priest in the temple told him that his grandfather's health had deteriorated a lot in the past few months, his spirit was not good, and he even went crazy.

"Xiao Quan, how is your sleeping skill?" Lin Changfeng asked with concern.

"Uh, it's okay." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

Lin Changfeng blew his beard and stared: "Who are you fooling?"

"No, I really practiced, but the more I practice, the more energetic I am, I can't sleep!" Zhou Quan said embarrassingly.

Lin Changfeng yelled: "That's because you practiced wrong, your mood is wrong, your realm has not reached, come here, let me teach you how to sleep..."

"Grandpa, why are you sleeping in broad daylight?" Zhou Quan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"You know what, what are you doing without sleeping in broad daylight? This is the serious business." Lin Changfeng scolded.

Seeing his grandfather like this, Zhou Quan could only follow him, not daring to be too disobedient, for fear of stimulating the old man's spirit too much.

He asked his parents to take his younger siblings down the mountain, and stayed on the mountain by himself to accompany his grandfather for two days.

I slept in Wudang Mountain for two days, and before leaving, I left another sum of money for Guanli, and repeatedly asked Guanli to take good care of my grandfather and notify the family immediately if there was anything.

On August 8, Zhou Quan's family came to the capital.

Liu Yumin, Sun Zhenping, and Zhang Lili picked him up at the airport and wanted to arrange a hotel for him, but Zhou Quan refused. The family came and the cost was too high, and Liu Yumin and his salary could not bear it.

In the end, the three of them had a treat at Quanjude and had a meal.

The Asian Championships will start in September. At this time, the men's basketball team is training. After playing in the capital for two days, Zhou Quan met with the men's basketball team.

The head coach is still Jiang Shuai, and the players include Shan Tao, Wu Naiqun, Adi Jiang, Zheng Wu, Liu Yudong, Hu Weidong and others.

Liu Yumin introduced the men's basketball team to him, as did Zhang Lili and Sun Zhenping, so he still knows this men's basketball team very well.

To put it simply, the outside line is good, but the inside line is not good, especially the center forward.

He spent three days training with the men's basketball team. He used [-]% to [-]% of his strength to play two intra-team confrontation training games. Completely submissive.

On the 15th, Zhou Quan put his family on the plane back to Changsha and prepared to return to the United States.

Before the boxing match with the Polish bad boy, he still needs to train. This match is his real first professional boxing match, and he definitely wants to win it.

Liu Yumin and Zhang Lili came to see off the plane, and naturally talked about the men's basketball team and the lack of the fifth position in the men's basketball team. Liu Yumin said:
"Now the center still has seedlings. Wang Zhizhi joined the Bayi team in 91. I personally handled the relationship with him. At that time, he had a hard time with Shougang. His talent is good. When he grows up in the future, he should be better than the existing ones. The center forwards are all strong and very spirited.”

"A few days ago, I went to the Bayi team to watch his training. It was really good." Zhang Lili nodded.

"Wang Zhizhi?" Zhou Quan muttered.

Liu Yumin said again: "The day before yesterday, Shanghai also reported a situation, saying that there is a child named Yao Min who is not bad. He is only 13 years old this year, and his height has reached 196 centimeters. I guess he is an adult, and he should be able to reach 2.2 centimeters. rice.

His mother and father also play basketball. I still know his mother. He used to be a member of the women's basketball national team. But the equipment is difficult to get, there are no shoes to wear, and there is no money to supplement nutrition. The family's financial pressure is heavy. He specifically allocated a fee of 1 yuan. "

"Ten thousand is not a lot. I heard that the total funding for this year is only [-]." Zhang Lili nodded.

Zhou Quan scratched his head. The basketball office of the dignified country, which is in charge of basketball, has only [-] yuan a year. Now the sneaker sponsor of the men's basketball team is Adidas.But it's not easy for him to ask.

……

On the afternoon of the 15th, Zhou Quan arrived in Los Angeles.

It has been a month and a half since the finals, and he will resume formal training.

Strength trainer Hughes Swildon has arrived. He has been doing strength training to maintain his physical condition, but the amount is smaller during the season and will be increased during the offseason.

The two training teams that Philip arranged for him also arrived, one is the basketball training team and the other is the boxing training team.
