Chapter 24 DeRozan

Li Chen nodded, "This endorsement is very good."

Bill Duffy said: "Then let's go today and sign the contract!"

Li Chen shook his head and said with a smile, "No, I still have to have a good talk with Mr. Robert Greenberg of Skechers."

Hearing this, Bill Duffy was slightly stunned, and then he opened his mouth wide.

"Oh! God! Chen, you don't think..."

"Mr. Bill Duffy, I have a stubborn personality and like challenges."

Bill Duffy wanted to persuade, but he opened his mouth and didn't say anything, and finally said: "Okay!"

Then Li Chen took Bill Duffy's car to Skechers' headquarters in Manhattan Beach, California.

Li Chen's plan is that since you look down on me and think I can't do it, then I will open my mouth like a lion and let you bleed.

So after meeting Robert Greenberg, the founder of Skechers, Li Chen asked for 10% of Skechers' shares.

What Li Chen did made Robert Greenberg and others a little surprised, but they were thinking that Li Chen was beyond his control.

But as a founder of a small company, Robert Greenberg was cautious, although he thought Li Chen couldn't do it.

However, out of caution as a businessman, Robert Greenberg decided to give Li Chen up to 2% of the shares after discussion with shareholders.

In the end, after a heated exchange of words between Li Chen and Robert Greenberg and others, Skechers finally backed down and gave up 3% of its shares.

After reaching a consensus and signing the contract, Robert Greenberg also teased Li Chen that he should not play basketball, but should be a businessman.

Li Chen smiled noncommittally.

At the same time, Skechers first paid Li Chen this year's endorsement fee in order to express his sincerity.

At the same time, the Li Chen sneaker series was finalized.

Li Chenqiu's first shoe series is called "Miracle".

Li Chen likes this name very much.

After all relevant matters were resolved, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

When Li Chen returned to Palavilla Stadium, James Harden came over after a while.

Obviously this kid has been around all the time, "I'm sorry, I have some things to do today, so I'm late, don't worry, today's salary will be paid."

James Harden was not very happy. After he hesitated for a moment, he thought for a moment and said, "Sir, your performance yesterday was great..."

Li Chen gave the little fat man a weird look, isn't this guy a Kobe fan?How did you brag about yourself today?As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to do, you can either rape or steal.

Thinking of this, he interrupted: "James, tell me what you have to say. I don't like to talk around."

James Harden's chubby little face turned red, feeling embarrassed after having his thoughts exposed.

However, he still said: "Sir, do we still need assistants here? We only need $150 a day for the two of us."

Li Chen was slightly stunned. He really felt that James Harden was too busy alone, and he had just received a sum of money. He could still afford 200 US dollars a day.

While thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Yes, let him come over tomorrow!"

"No, he's outside, I'll call him." As he spoke, he ran out in a gust of wind.

After a while, a boy with a head similar to Harden followed James Harden.

"Sir, his name is DeMar, DeMar DeRozan."

Hearing this, Li Chen blinked. He didn't expect that James Harden's friend turned out to be him.

Then Li Chen looked at DeMar DeRozan.

At this time DeRozan was a little cautious.

"Demar, sir is very nice, you don't have to be restrained."

James Harden patted his shoulder like a little adult to enlighten his good friend.

Li Chen was a little funny, and then the three of them started training.

The three of them were indeed faster than the two of them. Li Chen was so invested in his shots that he even forgot the time. The two little guys were so busy that they also forgot the time.

When Li Chen stopped, he found that it was already very late.

Li Chen looked at the dark night. He knew that this country was not very safe at night.

So he stopped training, took the two teenagers to a Chinese restaurant, had dinner, and then sent them home.

"Sir, you came here a little late today!" At this time, a waiter named Xiaowan asked with a smile.

"Huh! I overtrained today and forgot the time." Li Chen said, "Xiao Wan, serve all the dishes here, and let these two little guys try our oriental specialties."

Xiao Wanmei looked at James Harden and DeMar DeRozan, her big eyes were bent, and she said sweetly in a crescent shape: "Okay, sir."

James Harden and DeMar DeRozan kept looking at some retro decorations and asked curiously: "Sir, are you all like this in the East?"

"No."

"Oh!" James Harden nodded and then changed the subject: "Sir, how did you do it to make the referee favor you?"

Hearing this, the corners of Li Chen's mouth twitched slightly.I muttered in my heart, what's the situation?

Could it be that James Harden’s porcelain skills were inspired by himself?
After thinking about it, Li Chen felt that he should not mislead others, so he said: "In basketball, strength is the last word. Do you understand?"

Li Chen looked at James Harden and DeMar DeRozan and warned.

DeMar DeRozan nodded vigorously, as if he listened, but Deng seemed to be distracted and didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Li Chen sighed in his heart. Brother Deng seems to have a soft spot for touching porcelain!

After a while, food that the two of them had never seen before was put on the dining table one after another.

The family of the two is not rich, so it is impossible for them to have eaten Chinese food. With Li Chen's permission, they ate some oily food.

An hour later, when Li Chen paid and was about to leave, DeMar DeRozan suddenly said: "Sir, can I take these leftovers away?"

Seeing DeMar DeRozan's expectant eyes, Li Chen was slightly stunned, then thought of something, so he ordered a few more dishes for DeMar DeRozan and Harden to take back.

After a while, Li Chen called a taxi and took the two of them home.

Then he got back into the taxi and said, "Sir, please take me to the Palavela Stadium."

Li Chen decided to practice for a while because he wanted to level up.

"Good sir, you are really a kind oriental man." The driver said to the point.

Li Chen smiled and said nothing.

After practicing for more than an hour, he finally improved his open three-pointers to level A.

At four o'clock in the morning the next day, what Kobe was worried about happened and he was harassed again.

So Kobe gave Li Chen a lesson in anger, and then the anger in his heart gradually dissipated.

He really wanted to say not to call me in the future, but he couldn't say it.

However, Kobe was shocked to find that Li Chen had improved a lot compared to the last time.

He couldn't help cursing in his heart, Fake, how did this bastard practice?

No, I have to work harder. If one day I am beaten by this bastard, I will shudder just thinking about Kobe.
