Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 810 Breaking Through the Threshold
United States, Philadelphia.

Lost 1:4, the team was eliminated, and the season of the 76ers was over.

For the 76ers, the offseason has arrived. After a busy season, they can finally relax and rest for a while.

Qin Hao also gave himself a two-day vacation, no training, and even the extra training he had been insisting on for the time being. Although his body is different from ordinary people, he is not made of iron, so he should rest and combine work and rest.

In these two days, Qin Hao can finally spend some time with his girlfriend. The two are like an ordinary couple, shopping together, eating together, and watching movies together
But soon things came to the door again.

In Qin Hao's apartment, Martin and Qin Hao are sitting opposite each other.

Jiang Xue brewed two cups of tea, Martin nodded and thanked, then with a mournful face, looking like he was going to collapse, he said to Qin Hao: "Qin, I really can't bear to be annoyed by them. You don't know, those people are simply Going crazy, squatting at the door of my house day and night, I can't sleep well at night?"

Qin Hao frowned: "What do they want to do?"

"What else can I do? Of course I want to sign a contract with you. You don't know how popular you are now, but among the brands we often see in our lives, especially sports brands, there is no one who doesn't want to sign a contract with you, and they are all very urgent , almost broke his head."

As Martin said, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Qin Hao seemed to have expected this a long time ago. Is there another player who can be as forward-looking as him?
What is strategic vision?

This is.

If Qin Hao signed an endorsement contract right after participating in the draft, first of all, the contract amount would not be very high, and secondly, he would not be so popular.

But it wouldn't be the case with other players. For one thing, very few players could withstand so many temptations, watching millions, or even tens of millions of dollars in front of them without being moved.

Second, the road ahead is unknown, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow. Many people hold simple ideas and put their money in their pockets first.

Therefore, talented players are often signed very early, unlike Qin Hao, who insists on waiting until the end of a season before considering it.

Of course, Qin Hao has the qualifications to be proud of his performance this season. He averaged 20+ per game in the regular season and led the team to the playoffs. The data of 1+4 broke many records and shocked everyone.

There is no doubt that Qin Hao will be the "best rookie" of this season.

Although the selection of the best rookie will have to wait until after the finals, it is already a certainty and there will be no suspense. Many people even think that the NBA owes Qin Hao an All-Star.

Comparing Qin Hao and Griffin's personal data and performance on the field, Griffin was selected as an All-Star. Isn't Qin Hao more qualified to be selected?
As long as Qin Hao can maintain his current state, doesn't suddenly decline, and doesn't suffer from injuries, he won't have any problems being selected as an All-Star next season.

This is very possible, because Qin Hao has now become the star of the 76ers, and he will be the future of the 76ers.

Such a player can be said to have a bright future.

What's more, Qin Hao is a Chinese player. He is the first Chinese defender with the top three picks, the first Chinese rookie player to average 20+ per game in the NBA, and the first to score 40+ in the playoffs Chinese players with 10 statistics (Yao Ming also got 40+10 in NBA, but not in the playoffs), the first one.
This season Qin Hao set countless records. He has done many things that previous Chinese players, including Yao Ming, have never done. His popularity in China has even surpassed that of Yao Ming.

Anyone who is not a fool knows how much commercial value Qin Hao has.

Therefore, all kinds of advertisers are in a hurry, and they all want to sign Qin Hao first, and if they sign Qin Hao first, they will have an advantage over their opponents.

Especially those companies that value the Chinese market.

"Qin." Martin asked: "Now that the season is over, can I sign a contract as an endorsement?"

Before Qin Hao said "wait for the end of this season", Martin's excuse to those advertisers was also "Qin Hao is busy with the game and has no time to clone", now that the 76ers game is over, if Qin Hao refuses again, it will make people feel uncomfortable. It's easy to accept, and it will offend many people.

Qin Hao smiled and said: "Of course. Didn't you say it before? Wait until the end of this season. Martin, now is the time. Aren't you just waiting for this day?"

Martin's eyes lit up, slightly embarrassed.

After being Qin Hao's agent for so long, Qin Hao didn't accept a single advertising contract. Oh, there is one, a cooperation with Sports Wutai, but it is a public service advertisement and does not charge money.

So after such a long time, Martin didn't get a penny from Qin Hao's agent. It must be a lie to say that he is not in a hurry. He has to support his family.

"However." Qin Hao changed his tone, "We still have to carefully select which company to sign a contract with and which product to endorse. Pick and choose."

"Ah?" Martin opened his mouth wide and couldn't help but be taken aback.

But after all, he is an agent, and he still has quite a professional mind. He soon understood: "You mean, take less endorsements and only take high-end ones."

"That's right." Qin Hao laughed and said, "We only accept big contracts, and only accept endorsements with considerable fame and brand awareness, so as to maximize the endorsement revenue."

The reason why Qin Hao has not signed commercial endorsements and insisted on waiting until the end of the season is not just because he has no time to do so, nor is it just because he is waiting for a price.

It has been dragged on for so long, and the advertisers are so impatient. If Qin Hao completely let go of it all at once and accepts everything, wouldn't it seem too cheap?
In that case, who would care about him?

This is the same as some high-end brands, they make a "limited edition" every now and then. If you want to produce more, of course you can.But others don't, things are rare and expensive, and the less they are, the rarer they are, and the more stylish and classy they are.This may not necessarily sell well, but it will definitely sell more expensive.

Then Qin Hao and Martin talked about their thoughts, and Martin called out "good guy" in his heart, feeling that he was still too naive.

One ring after another, it's all a routine!

After determining the specific policy, the next step is to choose the advertiser.

"It's still Qin you are good." Martin gave a thumbs up while introducing the various intentional contracts in his hand. "Other players are waiting for advertisers to pick them, but we are advertisers queuing up for us to pick."

Don't feel too good about it.

"Haha." Qin Hao couldn't help laughing out loud. A group of people lined up to give you money, and whether to accept it or not depends on your mood. This feeling is so cool, don't fly.
