Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 621: Iverson is here!

Wait and see?

Qin Hao chuckled and said, "Then let Nike continue to wait and see."

For the two companies, Nike gave 6 million US dollars for 3 years, and Adidas gave 8 million US dollars for 4 years. It seems that there is little difference, both are 2 million US dollars a year on average. But in fact, there is still a difference. Multi-year contracts cannot be measured by average annual salary alone.

For example, most NBA players who sign contracts with teams like to sign multi-year contracts. 4 years and 5 years are the best. It doesn’t matter if the average annual salary is lower than the 2-3 year contract. Most players are still willing to sign longer contracts. Contract, because it is a guarantee for them.

NBA is a fierce competition. Under fierce physical confrontation and competition, it is almost inevitable for players to be injured. Who has never been injured in basketball?

The difference is only in the severity of the injury.

And once you encounter an injury, especially a serious injury, the impact on a player is very large, ranging from being unable to play for a long time, and directly affecting the level of competition afterwards.

At this time, a long-term contract will have a lot of protection. Even if you are injured, you don't have to worry about a major loss of income because of this, and you can heal your injury with peace of mind.

Advertising endorsements are actually similar.

After all, the significance of advertising endorsements depends on the player's performance on the field. If a player is injured for a long truce, or suffers a serious injury, the commercial value will also be affected.

So although Nike and Adidas give an average endorsement fee of 2 million dollars a year in the contract, but Adidas is obviously more sincere.

Nike obviously lacks confidence in Qin Hao and is worried that he will be injured, so it is unwilling to sign a perennial contract with him.

However, whether it is Nike or Adidas, Qin Hao is not satisfied with the contract given.

"I look down on people, only 2 million dollars a year, not as good as my salary in the 76ers." Qin Hao sneered, not surprised.

Nike and Adidas have always been a little contemptuous of Chinese players. In 2003, Nike's offer to Yao Ming was only 1.6 million in 4 years, which was completely insulting and wanted to take advantage of it. The result was naturally unsuccessful. Later, Yao Ming signed a contract with Reebok for 60 million yuan in 6 years.

As the most talented player in China after Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian’s contract with Nike is only 5 million yuan per year, not US dollars, but RMB. According to the exchange rate, it is less than one million US dollars a year, but it is actually bullying people.

Qin Hao still looks down on the $2 million in a year, and would rather not let him or get used to the stinks of Nike and Adidas.

"Qin, what do you think?" Martin asked.

"No." Qin Hao said decisively: "Whether it is a car dealer, a clothing brand, or Adidas's contract, all of them are rejected."

"Huh?" Martin was taken aback. He didn't expect Qin Hao to simply and stupefied asking: "Do you not sign any of them? Adidas does not sign? Qin, to be honest, Adidas's contract is not bad, 200 per year. Ten thousand dollars is no less."

Qin Hao curled his lips and sneered: "Aren't they just trying to pick up the bargain? Take advantage of me to enter the NBA, and I haven't scored a year, 2 million a year can hold me for 4 years. Martin, let me tell you, if you really want to sign With this contract, I must have lost a lot. No, we must have lost a lot."

Seeing that Qin Hao seemed confident about his future, Martin stopped persuading him.

As an agent, while ensuring the interests of the players, you must also learn how to maximize the interests of the players. If you can't do this, you can't be regarded as an excellent agent.

"Okay." Martin didn't talk nonsense, and immediately replied: "I will reply to these companies. But Qin, there will be other companies looking for it in the future, how should I reply, is it a stubborn rejection?"

"Then refuse." Qin Hao thought for a while, and said, "At least for the first season, I don't plan to sign any endorsement contracts. I will say it after my rookie season is over."

Regardless of the difference is only one season, in fact, the difference is very big.

For example, a rookie who has just entered the league and a player who has played in the NBA for a season and won the "Rookie of the Best" award. Who is more promising and whose commercial value is higher?

It's just that for most players, they are more willing to "fall in peace", even if it is less, it doesn't matter. After all, a considerable number of NBA players are actually not rich.

What's more, NBA competition is too fierce.

Is "Best Rookie" so easy to take?

But Qin Hao is an exception. He made a fortune and made a coup, and "Best Rookie" is not impossible for him. On the contrary, with great hopes, how can he sell himself cheaply?

When he sent Martin away, Qin Hao thought of Butler, and told Martin a few words, let him tell Butler, let Butler not worry. Anyway, that guy has no other hobbies except for coffee. At any rate, he is also the seventh pick in the first round. His first year salary is 2.8 million US dollars, which is enough to save a little.

As for advertising endorsements, you can pick up some small ones with a short period of time, which can be considered as a profit, and multi-year contracts should be prudent.

......

Two days later, the 76ers ushered in the seventh regular season, sitting at home to meet the challenge of the New York Knicks.

This game is very important for the 76ers. Whether they can end the losing streak depends on this game, because after that their opponents are the Thunder, Spurs, and Raptors. They are all strong teams and they are not easy to deal with. Today If you can't win, the losing streak may continue.

The 76ers fans are also looking forward to the team's victory. They came to the arena early, wearing the jerseys of their favorite players, waving small flags and slogans, cheering for the home team.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise.

"It's AI, AI is here!"

"It's really him, my idol."

People all looked in one direction.

A very hip-hop man dressed in a ditch haircut, dressed in a large compassionate shirt, ripped jeans, and a gold chain around his neck walked up and caused the fans to scream. The whole arena was suddenly boiling.

This is Allen Iverson, the 76ers meritorious player and the superstar who once led an era.

Once, Iverson was the soul of the 76ers and the legend of the Wachovia Center Arena. In 2001, he led the 76ers to the nba finals, challenged the thriving Lakers F4 combination, and dedicated an incomparable to fans. Shocking finals.

In that round of the series, Iverson averaged 35 points per game, shocking countless fans, the key is that he was only 1.83 meters.

When people watched his thin body rush to the inside of the Lakers again and again, facing O'Neal for layups; watched him being double-teamed by the Lakers and still scored the ball, watched him fall to the ground again and again, and then climb Get up and continue to fight...

At that moment, AI is the **** of war of nba!
