The Road to Godhood of a Basketball Kid

Chapter 18 The first advertising contract in life

Zhang Yang's mid-range fadeaway jumper in the second half directly stopped the Magic twice.It's not that you don't want to be good at making publicity, or you don't want to be good at magic. The main reason is that many of these marginal bench players are rookies who joined this year.Compared with real NBA role players, there is really a big gap between them.

In the third quarter, Zhang Yang's explosion directly tormented the Magic's fringe players to death. He made 10 of 8 shots in a single quarter, added 5 assists, blocked two shots, and stole one.

It was Zhang Yang's own wave that took away the game.

At the end of the third quarter, Zhang Yang hit a free throw in the penalty area.

Just when Zhang Yang executed a free throw.There were sporadic calls for mvp on the field.

The fourth quarter has not yet started, and the Bucks have already led by a huge score of 98-67.

The legendary clocking out of get off work in three quarters happened to Zhang Yang.

The person who is in the best mood today is Zhang Yang's agent Michael Jordan Tang, not only Zhang Yang's dominant performance in the preseason, but also a McDonald's division manager who calls himself Batty.I need to discuss with Tang Shang about Zhang Yang acting as an agent for McDonald's.

"My handwritten Tang, I'm Tony Batty, McDonald's divisional manager, and you can call me Batty directly." Although in front of the boss, Batty was a lowly boy, the kind who kneels and licks dogs, but in front of Tang, Batty regained his capable side.

"Hello Batty, I want to believe that you are not just asking me for a cup of coffee." Zhang Yang's performance today made Tang very confident. He believed that from today onwards, Zhang Yang would take the absolute initiative in all advertising contracts.

"Of course, you are really a master negotiator, so I'll cut to the chase. Our McDonald's management agrees that Mr. Zhang Yang from China is very suitable for the positive image of our products. We would like to invite Mr. Zhang Yang to become our company's global image spokesperson." Batty paused after speaking, giving Tang room to think. "This is a contract drafted by our company to the best of our ability, please have a look." Batty's assistant took out a contract from his briefcase, opened it and presented it to Tang with both hands.

Tang frowned and looked at the first page, when he saw the amount.He swallowed unconsciously, "I don't think this contract is very in line with our expectations."

Don pushes the contract back to Batty.

After taking it, Batty glanced at your salary and said, "Oh, Mr. Tang, I'm very sorry, it should be my assistant who got the wrong contract."

After a frantic operation, another contract was placed in front of Tang. The salary of the contract was doubled, and the term was extended from two years to five years.

"This is our contract, dear Don." Batty's smile remained the same.

"Oh, this is really a good contract. Five years, 1000 million US dollars." Tang said steadily. "But I want to know, what will you ask of us?"

"We just need Mr. Zhang Yang to eat one of our burgers every day during the intermission." Batty said quickly.

"But we can't get enough of one," Tang added.

"We will keep providing free hamburgers until he is full," Batty is very confident about one point. "If Mr. Zhang Yang becomes our global image spokesperson, in any McDonald's restaurant, Mr. Zhang Yang will have the right to eat for free."

"That's a really nice Mr. Idea."

"Yes, then wish us a happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

Sometimes a good agent only needs a few words to double the endorsement fee of the employer, but what about the rubbish agent?Signing a lot of rubbish endorsement contracts for the employer will cause the image of the employer to decline, making it difficult to endorse better contracts.

In the past Michael Jordan Tang could be said to have failed very much, but that was only due to luck, and now the lucky Tang has everything.

As Zhang Yang played more games, his popularity further increased. Tang firmly believed that he would be a very qualified agent.As for Zhang Yang, he will be packaged as a real All-Star.

McDonald's was the first contract Tang negotiated with Zhang Yang, and this contract directly exceeded twice his full annual salary, and Zhang Yang didn't know about all this, because he was being brought to the press conference by Coach Porter.

Coach Porter is on the side, in the middle is the Bucks All-Star player Michael Reed, and next to Reed is Zhang Yang.

"Look, I brought your favorite Michael Reed and the best rookie today, Yang Yang from China." Porter just sat on the chair, and the various cameras below were shooting at him.

"Okay, friends, I'll shoot again later. I want to make a poss in advance." Coach Porter was in a very good mood. They successfully missed a super rookie, and this super rookie was calm and experienced. He didn't make a single mistake in the whole game. He has the vision and overall situation of Magic Johnson, and he also has a strong physical fitness like James Chamberlain.I don't know where his three-pointer came from. In short, it is very, very powerful.

Coach Porter feels that his ambition is about to be fulfilled, and he will become the best coach this year.

"Okay, friends from the press, it's time for questions. We have limited time and can only answer three of your questions, thank you." After Coach Porter finished speaking, the reporters below frantically raised their hands.

"Mr. Zhang Yang, what do you think of this year's rookies? Today, you beat No. [-] pick Howard in statistics. Will you become the best rookie this year?" asked a middle-aged man with the same wretched appearance and questions.

No wonder Tang reminded me that journalists are so bad. There are two pitfalls in his question. The first is to induce him to say that he is the strongest rookie.In order to make himself a public enemy of the alliance, the second is that he does not ask about the performance of the boss Reed, but highlights himself. He wants Reed to create conflicts with himself.

"Oh, this gentleman asked a very good question. May I ask your surname, you are not from Milwaukee." Zhang Yang asked with a smile.

"Yes, my name is Bill Williams, from Charlotte."

"So you must be a Bobcats fan? Hehe, I was just joking in a very friendly way, sir. Your question just now is very good. First of all, our team has a great All-Star player, Michael Reed. Mr. Reed is a very efficient player. He doesn't need many shots to get very high points. And I have a very wide passing vision. I believe that if I were a point guard, Mr. Reed's scoring will increase very quickly. He has a good chance to become the scoring leader this year. You know, he is very good. " Zhang Yang said that Reed was very happy, black players are always so easy to satisfy: "Zhang Yang is very friendly, I will help him in the Bucks, we will hit the second round of the playoffs this year." Reid obviously has great confidence.

Zhang Yang resolved the crisis, but Bill Williams obviously had no intention of letting him go.

"Mr. Zhang Yang, you haven't finished answering my question. You beat Howard today. Do you think you will be the best rookie of the year?" Bill Williams prodded.

"Michael, I feel a little hungry now." Zhang Yang turned his head and said to Michael Reed.

"I'm very hungry too, why don't I buy you a beer, Milwaukee has the best beer in the world."

"as you wish."

After Zhang Yang and Reed left, there was a stunned Bill Williams and a group of angry reporters.

Everyone is blaming this short-sighted guy. The preseason game is unimportant. They are all waiting for something to write about on the court to complete their tasks today, especially in this kind of preseason game where the two sides' all-stars will not play for too long.

Finally, a rookie appeared, not only got explosive data, but also beat the number one pick.

Everyone is already fantasizing about getting some constructive opinions from this rookie to enrich their own manuscripts, or mixing familiarity, rookies are better interviews than all-stars.

This damn Charlotte, the reporters around him already hated Bill Williams to death, and even his classmate, Bob, who was also from Charlotte, hated him and stayed away from him.
