Return to 2002: Freestyle Superstar

Chapter 44 Don’t talk about feelings, just talk about money
The young player on the opposite side, Satoshi Iwabuchi, did not notice Chen Ran's control behavior.

At this moment, he put his hands on his hips and gasped for air. His eyes showed an extremely unwilling look, and his face was full of dissatisfaction.

Both sets were lost only after entering the tie-break. Iwabuchi was too unwilling to accept it.

If possible, even if his physical strength is close to the limit, he still wants to fight Chen Ran again.

After Chen Ran shook hands with the other party in a symbolic way, he could probably guess what the other party was thinking by looking at Satoru Iwabuchi's eyes.

Athletes in their younger days have willpower.

But if the opponent once knew that the reason why both sets entered tie-breaks was the result of his extreme control, would he commit suicide by caesarean section in anger and grief?

After Iwabuchi calmed down, he said in a complicated tone: "Chen Ranjun, you are so young and have such strength, your future is limitless."

The opponent is only 16 years old. If the entire men's professional tennis world must look for reference at this age, the only ones are Sampras or Agassi when they first debuted, but both of them are kings.

In today's small days, although there are no top tennis players yet, their overall strength can surpass that of Hua Xia.

However, with people like Chen Ran, I am afraid that for a long time in the future, Japanese players of those generations will be brutally suppressed by the opponent.

"The English name of tennis is tennis, and the English name of table tennis is taper tennis. Those Chinese people are so good at playing table tennis. It seems that the rise of tennis will be a matter of time." Iwabuchi could only comfort himself silently in his heart.

If Chen Ran could understand Iwabuchi Satoru's inner thoughts, he would probably smile knowingly. In fact, he is the only uncertain variable in Chinese men's tennis, but overall it is impossible to rise for at least ten years.

The level of this 25K Hope Race is really different from the previous 10K race. There will be beautiful etiquette ladies in uniforms when awarding prizes.

As for the trophy, it was still crudely made. Chen Ran looked like a fruit plate.

The championship bonus is US$3500, 35 ATP points, and a total of 53 points.

Chen Ran's real-time ranking reached 599, barely breaking into the top 600.

3500美元，差不多2万8千人民币，扣除个人所得税20%，到手差不多2万2千多一些。

As a result, Chen Ran's pocket became much richer. He felt that his savings should be much larger than those of his parents.

The personal income from competition bonuses in China is actually relatively low. If you go to the UK to compete, the personal income tax on the bonuses you get is as high as 50%.

Even if you get the 100 million pounds prize money from Wimbledon, you can only take away 50 pounds.

After returning to the hotel room, Chen Ran silently turned on his attribute face, and unexpectedly found that his mental attributes had improved a little, reaching 72 points.

As for the technical attributes and physical attributes, they remain unchanged, at 70 points and 80 points respectively.

"So the tiebreaker is a good way to hone your willpower!" Chen Ran thought thoughtfully.

This means that the more tie-breaks the better, especially at this low level, where he can already control the game at will.

Suddenly the cell phone rang, and the caller was Deputy Director Sun Jianye.

This guy learned that Chen Ran had won a higher-level championship, so he called to express his congratulations.

Chen Ran was not polite and said very honestly: "Director Sun, I told you that the sooner you start, the better deal you will get. If you come to me again now, the price will be far higher than the previous price."

"Uh, haha... Xiao Chen is right." Sun Jianye could only smile awkwardly when he heard Chen Ran's unabashed words.

At the same time, he comforted himself in his heart. People who practice sports are like this. They speak straightforwardly. People in their provincial team are like this!The two chatted for a while, and Sun Jianye told Chen Ran earnestly that the young man should pay attention to his health and avoid injuries. He must choose the competition carefully and don't participate in everything. I will wait for you to bring glory to your hometown in three years.

The implication is very clear, young man, you have a point, don’t let me get injured, and it will affect the National Games three years later.

Sun Jianye's heart is actually filled with uneasiness, because with Chen Ran's current growth rate, it is very likely that he will have a foothold on the ATP Tour in three years.

If Chen Ran goes back on his words by then, he will just refund a mere 12 yuan to the province, and he will have no way to restrain the other party.

Chen Ran naturally saw the other party's worries, his face hardened, and he said seriously: "Bureau Sun, don't worry, I keep my word, and I will do what I promise. Of course, the premise is that there will be no harm." sick."

"Competing for my hometown is my unshirkable responsibility. If you lose money on the price, just lose some money. As long as I get results in the future, the leaders can't treat me badly."

It is meaningless to talk about such cooperation in vain. The most practical way is to negotiate terms.

"Xiao Chen, you can rest assured. As long as you win the National Games championship, the province will definitely reward you according to the highest standards."

"That's good, I'm relieved."

Chen Ran said this to give the other party a vaccination so that he could be mentally prepared.

Because as your results get better and better and your ranking continues to improve, you can completely raise the price and add some additional conditions.

What do workers fear most? When it’s time to talk about money, your boss will talk to you about feelings; when it’s time to talk about feelings, your boss will talk about money with you.

Let’s not talk about feelings, just money.

The two chatted for a while and then hung up the phone.

After a while, the landline phone in the room suddenly rang.

Chen Ran directly picked up the phone without thinking.

"Sir, do you need service?" A numbing voice came from the other end of the phone.

Chen Ran paused for a moment to come to his senses and then said: "I am underage and still a virgin, how much money are you going to give me?"

The person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned, said "crazy", and hung up the phone.

Chen Ran then remembered that today is still an unrestrained era, and this ancient industry that has been passed down for thousands of years is still very developed and pervasive.

Even the various barber and beauty shops on the roadside contain all kinds of sexy secrets, waiting for experienced drivers to explore and dig out.

But after 20 years, the group was almost wiped out.

Chen Ran simply packed up his clothes and prepared to take the bus back to Dongzhou City the next day.

The high school is about to start school. Even if I only occasionally go to school for a walk in the future, I still have to report when school starts.

Dongzhou Middle School is the highest high school in Dongzhou City and a first-level key high school in Eastern Zhejiang Province. This was Chen Ran's regret in his previous life.
