Showdown, I'm the God of Basketball

Chapter 122 Need to Improve Your Strength
Zhao Hao is clear that this is not because Puma has really chosen to give up the interests of the NBA.

It's just that I can't bear to invest capital.

Just kidding, with such a big piece of cake, sneaker brands all over the world want to join in, will he give up?
If he really gave up, Puma would not have reported that he would sign a contract with Dayao when he was elected as the No. [-] pick in the NBA.

Of course, what Dayao wants to sign the most is actually the biggest sneaker force in the NBA-Nike.

It's just that the naive group of Nike's management, how much chips did they offer to Yao Ming, who was the number one pick?
4 million in 160 years!
What the hell, who do you look down upon, Nike!

A No. [-] pick, and there is a huge Chinese market behind him. If you give a leek price, you want to cut vegetables!

Even if the center forward doesn't sell shoes, your show is too exaggerated, okay?

Looking at the 7-year $9000 million that Nike paid James in the second year, you can know how humiliating Nike was at that time!
It's no wonder that Dayao chose to join Reebok in a fit of anger.

After all, the contract offered by Reebok is 7 million world currency for 5000 years!

The equivalent is 7 million US dollars in 600 years, which is much higher than Nike.

As a result, Nike is also thick-skinned. After seeing other brands competing, they immediately replaced Yao Ming with a seven-year contract of 7 million world currency.

Equivalent to 7 million US dollars in 1400 years!
Well, this contract is sincere enough.

In the end, our Dayao directly and domineeringly rejected him.

Just kidding, you ignored me before, but now I want you to be too high.

Therefore, Dayao turned to Reebok to finalize a 6-year contract of 6000 million world currency.

This slap in the face is absolutely crackling!
Needless to say the story after that, Zhao Hao still remembers how popular Reebok was in China when he was in school.

Simply unprecedented.

"So, how much is the endorsement contract that Puma offered me?"

Zhao Hao asked curiously.

Uh, this question is too straightforward, and Aden is confused by the question.

So you, Zhao Hao, are so snobbish too!
Aden hesitated for a while, and said directly: "For the time being, they only plan to sign a commodity contract with us, 10 US dollars a year."

What?

Zhao Haoxiu was amused.

commodity contract?And only $10!
Compared with Yao Ming and James, is the contract amount too small?

Under Zhao Hao's questioning, Aden finally explained the commodity contract.

It turns out that in the NBA, not every player can sign a huge shoe contract.

Most players can only have commodity contracts, which can range from $1 to $10.

During the period, the brand chamber of commerce will provide free sneakers worth between US$5 and US$10 for players to use.

What players need to do is to wear the sneakers provided by the brand when they are playing games or participating in some commercial activities.

In addition, the better is the cash contract.

This is a contract that can only be signed by a small number of team starters or All-Stars.

The amount probably ranges from hundreds of thousands to several million dollars a year.

A cash contract is just like a normal player signing. There will be a number of years, matching clauses and incentive clauses in the contract.

For example, you can agree to win the best sixth man or enter the All-Star, and you can get more cash rewards after reaching the agreement.

Of course, the biggest advantage of the cash contract is that you can launch player-version sneakers for players, and you can also get extra endorsement ads!

However, this needs to be based on the fact that the players have sufficient popularity and strength.

Dayao and Reebok signed this kind of contract.

In addition, the best ones are of course the only signature sneaker contracts and sales sharing contracts.

Strictly speaking, both contracts are of the same type.

They are all tailor-made for players with strong and very personal sneakers, and then widely sold.

Of course, there will be contract requirements such as sales thresholds, bonuses, deposits, and glory bonuses.

But the signing bonus in exchange is also massive.

For example, James's 7 years of 9000 million US dollars!
"Puma appreciates your commercial potential, but it's not yet known if you can bring advertising benefits to them.

After all, in the Chinese market, there is already a Reebok with Yao's name.

And your influence is definitely not as good as Yao Ming.

Therefore, they hope to sign a commodity contract with you first and provide you with sneakers for free.

Then come back next year to determine what a cash contract is worth for you. "

Aden said very sincerely.

Not to mention, the conditions offered by Puma did show good sincerity.

At least the words conveyed by Tuo Yading were very tactful, and even took the initiative to explain the reason.

Such an attitude is not like Kupchak's foolishness, it's too defiant.

And through Aden's expression, Zhao Hao also clearly felt the hidden meaning in Puma's management's words.

No matter how much commercial value they think Zhao Hao can provide next year, they will send Zhao Hao a cash contract, but the amount is open to discussion.

This approach is also benevolent enough.

Zhao Hao was very moved. It's just that he really couldn't wait any longer. He urgently needs a good contract to improve his ability.

"No, Aden, I need a good contract right now, $10 is too low."

Yading glanced at Zhao Hao's left hand strangely, and said, "Why do you need so much money now? You don't have a girlfriend, you don't go out to prostitute, and you don't spend money?"

Zhao Hao quickly hid his left hand and said, "This is not my girlfriend!

In short, I need a large signing bonus, the bigger the better. "

At this time, Aden showed his professionalism as a professional agent and said directly.

"Okay, tomorrow I will spread the news that Puma will sign us, but I can't guarantee how many brands will be hooked.

Also, don't hold out too much hope, even if there is a sneaker brand willing to give you a cash contract immediately, it is estimated that the annual salary will not exceed 50 US dollars! "

Zhao Hao nodded, he also understood this point very well.

毕竟，纵观整个NBA历史，也就詹姆斯7年9000万美金、杜兰特7年6000万、状元郎艾弗森10年5000万、科比的6年4800万.
But among the names above, which one didn't enjoy the entire United States before entering the NBA?

Zhao Hao still clearly remembers when those basketball fans in later generations ranked rookie sneaker contracts.

Marvin Bagley, No.10, received a five-year 5 million contract in his rookie period.

Therefore, the real sneaker contract is not as easy to get as imagined, and the amount is not as exaggerated as tens of millions.

After all, that is real money!

How can it be casually given to a player who has not yet achieved his worth in the league.

Therefore, there are not many players who sign cash contracts in their rookie years directly entering the NBA.

Even if there is, the amount is mostly only between 100 million and 200 million annual salary.

And those who can really win such a contract are basically not unknown little characters!
