Chapter 7 Announcement of participation in the draft and overwhelming praise (please recommend, please recommend)

April 4 at 7:5pm

Yang, who had just participated in the Duke championship parade, hadn't opened the door of the dormitory when his cell phone rang. When he took out his cell phone and found out that it was a call from an unfamiliar number, his expression darkened instantly. Since he announced his participation in the draft after the game early this morning, his cell phone has not stopped calling except during the parade.

"you are?"

"I'm LeBron James' agent, Rich Paul. Do you have time to come to Cleveland and meet LeBron James?" The man on the other side wanted to use LeBron James to influence him, and he heard it the next second after he finished speaking. Unfortunately, it was too late.

"No time, no interest." After finishing speaking, Yang didn't give the other party a chance to shoot again, and hung up the phone directly to strike out him.

About 40 minutes later, Yang, who had almost packed the dormitory, came to his computer and started browsing today's NBA news

"I saw a shadow of me and Dennis when Young was rebounding."

"I think with Yang's talent, he can get a 2 million endorsement contract."

"Young has LeBron-level vision and KD's long-range shooting. I believe he will be a frequent visitor to MVP and the best team in the future."

"Facing Young, who averaged a triple-double in March Madness, Towns, who averaged 10.3 points and 6.7 rebounds per game, is convinced that there is no hope of winning!"

"The champion is 100% Yang, if not, the manager must send himself to the psychiatric department of the hospital to check his mental state...

After reading the touted content one by one, Yang resolutely gave up the habit of clicking on the next media website in the past, and opened the plane ticketing website instead.

…………

At 4:8 a.m. on April 7, Young, who took the first flight back to his hometown of Charlotte, did not choose to go home directly, but dragged his large suitcase and knocked on the door of a coffee shop that had not yet opened.

"Who is it?" After more than a minute, the coffee shop finally echoed

"Uncle Jim, it's me"

"It's you, why did you come back so early, shouldn't you still be at Duke?" Uncle Jim who opened the door saw Jan dragging two suitcases

"I want to choose an agent. I don't believe in other places, so I can only come to you. As for the university procedures, I have already completed the formalities. It doesn't make any difference if I leave early or late." Given the relationship between Uncle Jim and his relatives, Yang also told the truth.

"Okay, I'll go and tidy up the box."

…………

…………

"boring"

When the bell rang at eight o'clock, the first agent arrived as scheduled
"Sit down! The coffee is freshly brewed in the morning, you can do whatever you want! If it's not enough, I can ask Uncle Jim to add more"

"Thanks, let's get down to business! What do you want to know?"

"The first one is proportional."

"Salary 3% sneaker endorsement 2%, if it is a foreign endorsement 15%."

"If there is a message that is unfavorable to me, can you clarify it as soon as possible."

"Can"

"If something happens to me here, can you come and help me deal with it yourself?"

"Look at the priority of things."

"Relationship with Nike and Adidas"

"its not bad, right!"

"You analyze the bad team..."

After asking two or three more questions, the agent opposite made a request to leave first.

After sending the agent out of the coffee shop, an unexpected voice appeared in Yang's ear:

"My child, are you finished with your game? Let's go home and play Chinese chess, badminton, and table tennis with me. I don't have anyone to play with me when you're not here, so I can only play with a bird."

"Grandfather, I'm not done yet. I'm interviewing an agent. How about I accompany you when I'm done?" Facing the grandfather who is more than 100% playful and Yang, who is proficient in all ball games, he has to spare some time to have fun with his grandfather when he returns home to Charlotte.

"Then go ahead, Jim, and bring me a cup of black coffee." Although he was a little regretful, his grandfather didn't say anything. "

…………

Ten minutes later, candidate No.10 also came. The difference between him and the first candidate is that the first candidate is not very famous in the United States, but this one is very famous.

"It's a very quiet place, and the decoration is in line with the elegant feeling. It's a good place to discuss business." Looking at the landscape painting on the wall, BJ Armstrong praised the choice when he came up.

"It was designed by Uncle Jim's father and my grandfather, that's why I called you here to talk, the safety factor is higher."

"It's safe now, but if you want to sign a contract, the person from Yahoo must know that you are now a hot candidate for the No. 10 pick, and you will be watched all the time. It's like the tweet he sent yesterday that you decided to participate in the draft. In less than [-] minutes, many pages were swiped;
Therefore, in the information age, it is too difficult to keep secrets. "

Jingle bell, jingle bell

I wanted to hang up this call, but the caller was Coach K, so Yang had to say sorry to Armstrong

"Um, um, um, I see." The call was very short and ended in a few words.

"Adidas' public relations team came to Duke to find you, and found that you were not there?" The first sentence after hanging up the phone made Yang feel a little terrified.

"That's right, how do you know?" Now that the point is broken, there is no need for Yang to say anything else

"I have a channel, and I know they came to you with a 7-year endorsement contract of 6000 million yuan. They are determined to win it." Shaking his mobile phone, BJ Armstrong joked with a smile

"Am I worth that much?" After rejecting Nike's five-year, $5 million sneaker endorsement deal last summer, Young never paid attention to it.

"Of course, both draftexpress and MockDraft have given you the best ratings in the past ten years."

"I still have some questions to ask you. After all, I still have some concerns."

"I will give you the most honest answer."

"You have too many players under your command. Can you guarantee that when something happens to me, you won't send your subordinates to deal with it personally?"

"I have come!"

"My choice is my choice. You can give advice, and I will consider it, but it is me who decides. You can't make a decision, can you?"

"Unless you're doing something extremely stupid, I won't interfere with you."

"Image packaging, my attitude is that I am who I am, and I don't want to live under the packaging, what is your attitude?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't take the initiative to fight, don't take the initiative to make trouble in the locker room, and scold the referee, that's all."

"About my gossip?"

"If you haven't done it, I can help you clarify it in the first place."

"Okay, the next step is not to ask, but I want to know what you can do?"

"I know about the relationship with Adidas, but what about Nike?"

"It's okay, of course it can't compare to the relationship in Adidas."

"A ratio?"

"2% of the rookie contract salary, 50% of the endorsement below 7 yuan, if you want to continue after the rookie period, then we can discuss the ratio."

"Okay, from today onwards you are my agent, and the publicity on Twitter and other media is entirely dependent on you."

"Okay, the contract period and signing will be discussed after my team comes in the afternoon." Bj Armstrong was naturally overjoyed to sign the No. [-] pick

"Can"

"Then can you help me find someone to spread the news that Adidas has offered 7 million in seven years to Nike and Under Armour?"

"Do you think the price is low? Then I can try, but there is no guarantee of success. This price is Durant's first offer to Nike."

"What do you think is the bottom line?"

"There can be additional clauses, but the difficulty should not be too high. I want a one-year contract of 1000 million. By the way, I don't want to see the number of All-Stars added to the additional clauses."
