Chapter 312 Are you going to be an NBA agent?

"Hello, Uncle and Auntie!" Zhou Zhiru greeted Father Tang and Mother Tang obediently as soon as she entered.

"Oh, Xiaoru is here, come on, come on, sit wherever you want, don't be restrained, just like your own home!" Mother Tang said enthusiastically, it is really not easy for her to meet an acquaintance in the United States . "Well, thank you, auntie!" Zhou Zhiru replied sweetly with a slight smile.

Today Zhou Zhiru's dress is very well-behaved, the whole is a cute ****.

But Tang Qian could see that her complexion didn't seem very good.

"What's wrong with you? Have you been too tired from studying recently?" Tang Qian asked Zhou Zhiru after Mother Tang returned to the kitchen.

"No, I just have a cold." Facing Tang Qian, Zhou Zhiru's tone softened, and this change was very obvious.

"Did I offend you?" Tang Qian asked in surprise.

"No." Zhou Zhiru replied simply, even with a hint of professionalism.

"It seems that you have been doing well recently? You have lived in such a big house, congratulations!" Zhou Zhiru looked around and said. "This is not a house I bought. I borrowed it from a friend temporarily. When my parents leave, I have to return it to her." "Oh~ Your friend is a woman, right?" Zhou Zhiru said suddenly.

"Huh? Well, yes." Tang Qian felt that there was nothing to hide about this matter, so he told the truth.

"I made a female friend in the United States so quickly, Tang Qian, it seems that you have grown up a lot compared to when you were in China." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Tang Qian to answer, Zhou Zhiru continued: "Yes, you are now Now that he is a big star in the NBA, he is naturally incomparable with his previous status as an ordinary student, which is also normal."

Seeing Zhou Zhiru "asking and answering himself" over there, Tang Qian said, "Don't say that, what NBA star, I'm just a substitute now, and I'm far from a star."

"How much money do you earn a year now?" Zhou Zhiru suddenly asked a random question.

"Me?" Tang Qian was stunned, and then said: "The basic salary is only about 40 yuan, but this year I got some incentive bonuses, which add up to nearly 300 million yuan. However, due to certain circumstances, I was fined 200 million yuan by the league. , the rest, deducting taxes, may be only 40 to 50 U.S. dollars." "Well, it's about the same as I estimated." Zhou Zhiru said: "Your contract for the new season has not been finalized, right?"

"Well, yes, the season has just ended, and it's not my turn to renew the contract." Tang Qian replied.

"What's your ideal salary for next season?" Zhou Zhiru continued to ask.

Hearing Zhou Zhiru ask this, Tang Qian was a little surprised, but he didn't hide much, and after thinking about it, he replied: "Well, maybe more than 300 million US dollars a year." "Only 300 million? That's too much." Isn't it a little less?" Zhou Zhiru frowned and said, "You are also the winner of the block leader + the first team of the best rookie team + the winner of the second team of the best defensive team in a season, and you only need 300 million US dollars a season. ? This is too low!"

"Then how appropriate do you think it is?" Tang Qian also became interested, looking at this former "senior sister" and said.

"At least 500 million or more." Zhou Zhiru blurted out without hesitation.

"500 million?" Tang Qian was slightly startled when he heard the words, and said, "The Lakers don't have much salary space now. I'm afraid they won't accept such a high salary?" "How high is this?" Zhou Zhiru said unexpectedly : "Let me give you an example, just take your Lakers themselves, Jordan Hill's salary next season will be as high as 363 million US dollars, but what is his data this season? It's just 5+4 data, and You don’t have any personal honor yet, so you’re no worse than him, right? Look at Josh McRoberts, whose salary will exceed 300 million U.S. dollars next season, and Steve Blake, whose starting salary next season will be 400 U.S. dollars. You are no worse than them, and you even perform better on the court. With a starting salary of $500 million, I don’t think there is any problem.”

Hearing Zhou Zhiru's eloquence, Tang Qian was stunned for a moment. After a while, he said, "How do you know so clearly? I remember that you didn't watch basketball or the NBA very much before, did you? "

Zhou Zhiru did not answer Tang Qian's question, but continued: "Do you want a long-term contract or a short-term contract?"

"Ah? Me." Tang Qian thought for a while, then opened his mouth and said, "Maybe I want a 1+1 or 2+1 contract."

"Really?" Zhou Zhiru said: "But I suggest you, it's better to choose a one-year short contract, because as long as you continue to maintain the level of this season, then next year's offseason, your strength will be even better. It is recognized by many people. It is not impossible to sign a big contract like this.”

"And I also looked at the NBA's broadcast contract. It seems that it will end soon in the past few years. According to the current momentum of the NBA, it is very likely to sign a large new broadcast contract in the future. That way , According to the regulations of the league, the team salary cap will be recalculated. I think the chance of doubling is not small. At that time, many premium contracts should be jumped out. As long as you grasp it well, sign a super fat contract, no question."

Tang Qian was a little stunned when he heard this. Is this person in front of him the Zhou Zhiru he knew?
Isn't she a clone?Or a robot?
"You, are you really Zhou Zhiru?" Tang Qian couldn't help but opened his mouth and asked.

"Of course, do you want to see my ID card and passport?" Zhou Zhiru still said with that "cold" attitude.

"Why are you so clear about the NBA now? I remember..." Before Tang Qian finished speaking, Zhou Zhiru said: "To prepare for future work, these are the hard knowledge that must be mastered. "

"Preparing for future work? What do you mean? Are you going to work in the NBA? Or are you going to work in a sports TV station?" Zhou Zhiru glanced at Tang Qian and said, "No, I'm going to be an NBA agent .”

"NBA agent, um, this profession... what? You want to be an NBA agent???" Tang Qian didn't realize it at first, but when he did, he immediately exclaimed: "Aren't you joking with me? ?”

"Do you think I look like I'm joking?" Zhou Zhiru said calmly.

"Please, sister, the circle of NBA agents is not so easy to mess with!" Tang Qian said: "Don't think that this industry can make money every day, maybe you don't know it, there are so many NBA agents, but you can really master them." For the big ones, there are only a dozen or so people, and the annual commission for the rest of them is not much higher than that of a small worker who washes dishes! So, I advise you to think twice!"

"There are 119 agents currently ranked in the NBA, and the league has a total salary of more than 20 billion. The top 20 accounted for nearly 20 billion, and the remaining 99 were divided into the remaining several hundred million. I said Right?" After listening to Tang Qian's words, Zhou Zhiru reported a lot of precise numbers, and that kind of style obviously had a certain amount of effort.

"You, since you know the cruelty of this industry, why do you still do this? Wouldn't it be better to do something else?" Tang Qian was a little confused.Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhiru looked at Tang Qian for a long time before slowly opening her mouth and said, "What else? I came to America to do this."

"I'm not going to do anything else other than this."

Her voice was not loud, but the determination inside was beyond Tang Qian's expectation.
