NBA's No. 1 guard

Chapter 24 Endorsement and King James Going Home

To be honest, Xu Xiang has no impression of endorsement.

If you want to say it hard, you can only see it on TV, such as Michael Jordan, the god of basketball. Although he has retired for many years, he can still get about 1.1 million in endorsement fees every year.

Why are you?They signed a dividend contract, and they can get 5% of the total income of Jordan shoes from Nike every year, and the annual income of Jordan shoes is as high as 25 billion...

There is also the No.1 LeBron James in the active league. The details of his sneaker contract have not been disclosed, but according to the data released by Forbes, the endorsement fee he gets every year is about 3200 million U.S. dollars, which means that the total amount is likely to exceed 10 billion...

Others like Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, James Harden, none of these sneaker contracts are small.

Xu Xiang rubbed his head with some headaches, and helplessly put down the endorsement contract in his hand called "Pregnancy Stop", and said dissatisfiedly to Mike next to him: "Didn't you say that you picked it all over again? Why did you mix this strange thing in?"

Mike next to him was also looking at the contract. After hearing Xu Xiang's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly and asked mysteriously, "You think it's strange?"

"It's strange, it's so fucking strange." Xu Xiang felt that he was very righteous, how could he sign such a contract?If you sign it, you will destroy the wisdom of the whole life!

"Oh, Xu, you should read on. If there is no accident, the thing you find strange should be the highest amount among all the contracts here..." Mike said, and patted the tall stack of contracts next to him.

"I have to tell you a very cruel fact. Although there are many contracts, there are not many that can give a good condition. Most of them come to Pengci, and they treat you like a fool. Maybe you will sign it?"

Xu Xiang had a black line on his forehead, touching porcelain?fool?Sure enough, none of these businessmen were easy to deal with, and they all wanted to be deceived.

Xu Xiang made up his mind to pay attention, Xu Xiang will never forget any of these "humiliating" contracts now. There is a saying that goes well, "Today you look down on me, and tomorrow you will not be able to climb up."

Thinking of this, Xu Xiang didn't have the patience to continue watching, and just asked: "Is there a contract for sneakers?"

"Unfortunately, not at all. They are all masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles. Before they see your value, it is impossible to pay this money."

Although Xu Xiang was prepared in his heart, he was still a little disappointed. However, these are trivial matters. As long as you can show your talent, then only they will find you!
After reading the endorsement contract, Xu Xiang was in no mood to do anything, and went back to his room to sleep after talking to Mike.

Just when Xu Xiang was about to go back to his room with a yawn, Mike stopped him again: "The trainer I'll make an appointment with for you will arrive tomorrow. You can meet him first, and if you think it's appropriate, I'll start talking to him about the specific time and remuneration."

"Okay, but let's look at his asking price first. If it's too outrageous, I can't afford it." Xu Xiang smiled wryly after he finished speaking.

The reality is like this, now Xu Xiang doesn't have that much money to hire a special trainer, and the part of the salary he advanced is running out, so he can't go to Kevin to advance it again, and the total is 220 million a year, and it will basically be gone if he advances it again.

"Okay, I'll talk to him, but if it's too low, he won't agree. After all, there is no shortage of market for their business." Mike said with a frown after thinking about it.

"Okay, that's it, you talk to him first, I'm going to bed, good night!"

"Okay, good night!"

Xu Xiang had already called Mallory on the way back today, so he didn't continue talking on the phone tonight, and Xu Xiang went to bed directly after taking a shower.

The next day, in a training ground.

This training ground was found by Mike through his relationship, and he will officially enter the vacation soon, and it is not easy to go to the Pacers arena every day, so Mike found such a place for him.

In the training field, a black trainer wearing a red and blue jersey was doing confrontation training with Xu Xiang. To be honest, Xu Xiang didn't feel that he could do anything, or he was not serious about training Xu Xiang at all.

Ordinary single-person trainers have a complete set of procedures, but Xu Xiang has nothing in front of him, and he comes up with confrontation training.Mike on the sidelines kept frowning. Is this obviously because he didn't work hard?

The more Xu Xiang practiced, the angrier he became. This is no training. Just now Xu Xiang made several three-pointers and mid-range shots. The trainer didn't take defense seriously at all.

"Stop practicing, Mike, come and talk to him."Xu Xiang threw the ball on the ground as he spoke, and went back by himself.

As for how Mike talked to him, Xu Xiang didn't know and didn't want to know. It was absolutely impossible for Xu Xiang to hire him with such an attitude.

After returning to the residence, Xu Xiang called Mallory and agreed to go to Milwaukee tomorrow.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xiang casually turned on the TV in the living room, wanting to kill some time, but when he turned it on, he realized that something extraordinary happened today.
LeBron James is coming home!

This news was first reported by Sports Illustrated. They confirmed and definitely announced the news that shocked the league. After that, James also admitted the news on his personal social network!
James is coming back to Cleveland!
Although there have been many gossips claiming to confirm that James will return to his hometown to play, some people still don't want to believe it.

for what?People who like James prefer him to stay in a strong team. Indeed, Pat Riley's "Big Three" tactics make the team look really good on the surface, but after losing to the Spurs three old hooligans last season, James is no longer willing to trust the management of the Heat. He wants to win the championship and be the No.

It is obviously impossible for the Miami Heat to agree with him.Who is Pat Riley?He is a person with a strong desire to control, even if you are the No.1 in the current league, as long as you don't listen to him, you still won't hang you.

Don't you see his attitude towards "The Flash" Dwyane Wade in the future?A player who has dedicated all his merits to the Heat, he gave a humiliating contract without blinking
But Cleveland will not have such a situation. Generally speaking, they are willing to give everything in order to bring James back.

Ball rights?Give!Team tactics?Say it!Team lineup?You come to recruit, I will give you money!
Anyway, what to give, this comparison, James will definitely choose the Cavaliers.

Those who like James think this way, and those who don't think otherwise.They feel that James' choice to return to the Cavaliers has become a bigger threat.The current head of the Cavaliers is the "little prince" Kyrie Irving. The No. 2011 pick in 2014 has gradually shown his superstar strength.In the just-concluded 31 All-Star Game, Irving successfully entered the Eastern Conference starter and was elected the All-Star MVP with his performance of 14 points and [-] assists.The outside world commented that if this duo cooperates well, it may not be inferior to the "OK" combination back then.

Seeing this, Xu Xiang couldn't help showing a wry smile, "Two people"?I'm afraid it will still be the "Big Three" by then. Although Kevin Love hasn't let the news out yet, everyone knows that he has a disagreement with the Timberwolves management, and he has been actively seeking a trade.

Headache, this year's Eastern Conference is not smooth, want to break into the playoffs, the difficulty is not ordinary high!
