Zhang Chen was a little surprised but not too surprised that a sports company wanted him to endorse him in an advertisement.

In the United States, many talented players had this kind of commercial income in high school, especially in the NCAA, and some famous players signed tens of millions of dollars just after entering the NBA. The sneaker endorsement contract, and soon had his own exclusive sneakers.

Before Zhang Chen entered the NBA, of course, he had never been paid attention to by any company that needed player advertising endorsements, especially some big companies, which actually cooperated with some well-known agents. He didn’t make up his mind to participate in the draft when he was in the NCAA. Of course, the most important thing is that the data and performance are not impressive at all, and he has no agent at all.

But he knows that as long as he performs well in the NBA, all kinds of advertising endorsements will come to him, whether it is a basketball-related company or not. The better the performance, the higher the net worth.

Now he doesn't have an agent, so the other party is looking for the club.

Nike, Adidas, Reebok, the three biggest companies in the NBA are all interested in him. Zhang Chen knows that it's not that he has reached this height now, and that the second-round pick is a strong contender for the best rookie. The gimmick is what the other party likes.

Although Zhang Chen doesn't have much money yet and wants to make money very much, he is not in a hurry.

After he won the best rookie, his worth will rise immediately, and if he performs well in the playoffs, his worth will rise again, so he simply rejected the agent who is now looking for an agent to talk to the other party or entrust the team's agent to talk.

Don't rush for a month or two, wait until the offseason.

Moreover, even if he negotiates an advertising endorsement contract with a certain company during the offseason, it will be a short contract, because he believes that there is still a lot of room for his worth to rise.

Pat Riley didn't want Zhang Chen to put too much energy on these matters. If the team had not been inextricably linked with these companies, he wouldn't even tell Zhang Chen the news now. Originally, he was Let Zhang Chen sign an agent and let the agent handle the business contract. He can play with peace of mind. Seeing that Zhang Chen calmly refused to talk now, he couldn't help but think highly of this young man.

Fortunately, he is a high-achieving student with excellent grades, unlike ordinary young people who are so bluffing. He is also afraid that Zhang Chen will be so happy that he will be absent-minded about the game once he knows the news.

Now he is completely relieved, the regular season is coming to an end, and he doesn't want the main players to have problems.

As for the matter of the agent, Zhang Chen didn't think about it at all. He had his own plans. If he went back to this era and just played with his head covered, he would be a little silly.

He likes basketball, so he won't give up, but it is also very necessary to use some things he knows to make money. Of course, he doesn't need to take care of it himself, just let someone manage it for him.

And there is only one person he can fully trust now, and that is Zhang Xiaomeng. He plans to open an investment company and let Zhang Xiaomeng be the CEO. As long as you tell Zhang Xiaomeng what he thinks, you can rest assured that this unrelated sister can discuss the details.

He had this idea a long time ago, just to earn the first pot of gold to start the company, he put all his thoughts on basketball, of course, because he had to wait for the right time to tell Zhang Xiaomeng, of course he knew from the future What to invest in to make money, but you must not use this reason to persuade Zhang Xiaomeng.

Only after making money in the NBA, can Zhang Xiaomeng help start a company with financial management and put it into practice by not having the heart to completely give up the knowledge he learned in college, and at the same time preparing for life after retirement.

His rookie contract before would definitely not be able to implement this plan, but now that he has an advertising endorsement contract, it is a good opportunity.

Of course, he had already thought of countless rhetoric, and felt that he should be able to persuade Zhang Xiaomeng.

Well, not 100% sure, some fragments in his mind made him feel that Zhang Xiaomeng was quite assertive.

So Zhang Chen was not as calm as he appeared at all. After the training that day, he returned to his residence early, staring at the time on the computer and calculating the time Zhang Xiaomeng would spend from get off work to dinner. When the other party is in trouble, communicate with her as soon as possible.

When the time came, Zhang Chen immediately took a deep breath and dialed Zhang Xiaomeng's number.

After the second ring, Zhang Xiaomeng's voice came from the phone. Ever since he came to Miami, Zhang Chen called back, and Zhang Xiaomeng always answered quickly. Zhang Chen didn't think about the reason. But when he heard the other party's voice, his somewhat uneasy mood calmed down a lot.

"Sister, how are you doing these days?"

"I'm fine. I haven't called back for a few days. Have a good meal on time."

Hearing Zhang Xiaomeng's words, Zhang Chen remembered that he only thought about the best rookie during this period, and it was because he hadn't called her for a long time, maybe he got used to it after a long time away.

"I've been a little busy during this time, but I ate strictly according to the team's dietitian's advice. It's really good, but sister, why do you talk like an old lady..."

"I think my sister is old, and I don't know much about basketball."

"Well, sister, I actually have something to tell you. Today, the coach told me that a sporting goods company wants to sign an advertising endorsement contract with me, and wants me to hire an agent..."

"Advertising endorsement, I didn't expect Xiaochen to be a star, so please invite me, I'm pretty good here, just work hard."

"No, that... I don't trust those brokers, sister, I only believe in you... And, if I make money, I want to open an investment company. You know that's what I majored in in college. I want to see you Come and help me."

There was a moment of silence on the phone, "You said you want me to help you?"

"Yeah, actually I made a plan...that..."

"I'll think about it."

"Okay, then I... eh..."

Zhang Xiaomeng actually hung up the phone, Zhang Chen patted his face, why didn't he explain the matter to make it easier for the other party to make up his mind after preparing for a long time, he knew that Zhang Xiaomeng was in the current company He started as a handyman and worked hard, and finally became a small manager. It may be a little bit of reluctance to make up his mind just because of a phone call from him.

Talk to her again during the offseason, if you cooperate with other people, you will always feel uneasy.

The remaining few games, except for the last one, are all at home. For the Heat team preparing for the playoffs, it is also a very good schedule, and the opponents in the playoffs, even Zhang Chen, is not sure if they will return. It's the same as the New York Knicks in history.

In the Eastern Conference, the Detroit Pistons, Philadelphia 76ers, Milwaukee Bucks, New York Knicks, and Charlotte Hornets are now competing for four playoff spots. These teams have similar records, and it is estimated that it will be rare until the last game. clear.

In the evening, it was a home game against the Chicago Bulls. Tim Hardaway continued to rest, and the team was still doing simple training during the day.

When I went out to eat at noon, Mashburn next to me whistled, "Zhang, do you think that girl over there is looking at you or me."

Zhang Chen followed his gaze and looked over. A pretty oriental woman in a lady's suit was squatting with her knees on the path beside the entrance of the gymnasium, looking at them.

The woman's appearance is a little tired, and she looks pitiful.

Zhang Chen trotted over and said in surprise, "Sister, why are you here?"

"Didn't you want me to come here to help you? I resigned and came here." Zhang Xiaomeng said calmly, feeling like he was free today, so he came here to see how you feel.

Zhang Chen couldn't turn his head around a bit. He thought Zhang Xiaomeng didn't agree yesterday, but he didn't expect her to move so fast that she even resigned from her job. If she was told now that she planned to start the offseason, would she be beaten up?

Now that Zhang Xiaomeng is here, Zhang Chen didn't go out to eat with a few of his teammates anymore. He found a pretty good restaurant nearby and treated Zhang Xiaomeng to a good meal first.

There was still a game tonight, but luckily it was at home, so he got a ticket for Zhang Xiaomeng, so he had to wait until after the game to explain it clearly to Zhang Xiaomeng.

Zhang Xiaomeng was busy at work before, and this was the first time she watched Zhang Chen's performance in the NBA.

In this game, Zhang Chen's touch was so hot that he scored a new personal high of 40 points, helping the team beat the Bulls 101:86.

Taking Zhang Xiaomeng back to his place at night, "It's cleaner than expected, not bad." She smiled like a little girl.

Zhang Chen thought, that's of course, he didn't spend as much time here as in the team, but he also likes to be clean.

The house he rented is not a single room, as long as the bed is made, there is a place for Zhang Xiaomeng to live, but how to explain it to her clearly, if she ran over without asking clearly, she must be responsible.

"Sister, I want to tell you something seriously, don't be angry."

After Zhang Chen's explanation, Zhang Xiaomeng realized that she had an oolong. Yesterday, when she heard Zhang Chen's hesitating, she thought that the matter here was more urgent.

Rather than being angry, she felt a little shy about her recklessness.

"Why don't you take a vacation here in Miami first, and you can get a broker qualification certificate first, or you don't have to. Anyway, you are only my special agent, and I can pay you now."

"It's amazing that the brat makes money, isn't he burying sister?"

Zhang Xiaomeng said something coquettishly, which made Zhang Chen's heart beat faster for no reason. He was not the Zhang Chen before, and the other party gave him a feeling of familiarity and strangeness.

The two finally made an agreement. Zhang Xiaomeng went back to Utah to take care of everything, and then came to take care of Zhang Chen's life while studying relevant knowledge.

After successfully handling this matter, Zhang Chen devoted all his attention to preparing for the playoffs.
