ance, “Li Xingchen, will you come to me again?” ”

Of course, in the future. Whenever I come to Los Angeles, I will come to you.”

Li Xingchen turned around and gently stroked Hathaway’s head. His gentle but firm movements made Hathaway feel at ease.

At least Li Xingchen is not the kind of person who just eats up and leaves.

“Okay, I’m going to participate in the last training with the Clippers.” The last

day of training is an intra-team competition, because Li Xingchen’s performance in the previous few days of training was somewhat unsatisfactory, and the playing time given to him by the coach was not enough. many.

But the good news is that as long as a player takes the field, the coach will arrange two tactics for him.

Fortunately, Li Xingchen took advantage of the few opportunities and scored a few three-pointers.

After the training, Li Xingchen put on his backpack and walked out of the training hall.

A thin, cleanly dressed young man blocked Li Xingchen’s path.

“Hello, Li Xingchen from China.”

Li Xingchen, who was walking with his head bent, raised his head: “Huh? Who are you?”

The man handed over a business card: “My name is Rob Pelinka, a broker from SFX Brokerage Company “Oh

? Nice to meet you.” Li Xingchen took the business card and shook hands with it.

If I remember correctly, this person is currently Kobe’s agent and later became the general manager of the Lakers.

“Our company has superstars such as Kobe Bryant and Tracy McGrady, as well as potential rookies like Boozer.” Worried that Li Xingchen didn’t understand SFX Brokerage Company, Pelinka gave a brief introduction.

Li Xingchen nodded slightly.

“I took a look at your performance on the court just now, and I think you have a chance to get a first-round pick. As far as I know, you haven’t signed an agent yet.”

Li Xingchen nodded: “You are really well-informed. It seems that you Come prepared.”

“As a professional agent, it is not difficult to master this information.” Rob Pelinka spread his hands and shrugged.

In fact, he started investigating after watching Li Xingchen’s performance just now, but he could find out these things with just a phone call.

“Of course, if you don’t have an excellent agent working for you, it might be a little troublesome for you to get a first-round pick due to your current situation.”

Li Xingchen firmly believed in this point. After all, if the agent hadn’t worked well, Ben-Nei How could Te be selected No. 1 overall by the Cavaliers?

“In this case, you might as well tell me the general situation of the contract, and I will reply to you after I understand the market situation.”

Li Xingchen said bluntly.

“Haha, it’s refreshing.”

Pelinka just checked the Chinese people’s way of getting along with each other on the Internet, and said that the Chinese people speak more tactfully.

Therefore, Pelinka was still thinking about how to speak. Now that Li Xingchen was so direct, it saved him a lot of trouble.

“The agent’s commission is mainly divided into two parts, NBA team contract and endorsement contract.” ”

I will charge you 4% commission for the team contract, which is the upper limit set by the league.” ”

I will charge you 10% for the endorsement contract The commission, the upper limit of the alliance is 20%. Because you have Chinese status, you may have more advantages in obtaining endorsement contracts.” ”

Our agent contract cannot be less than five years.”

Pelinka explained: “Because The first-round pick’s rookie contract is four years, and I can’t make much money on a rookie contract. Naturally, I hope to be the agent for the contract after the rookie period.” Li Xingchen nodded, it doesn’t matter if the team gives him a bigger contract, as long as

he It can help him move up his draft pick.

Li Xingchen put Pelinka’s business card in his backpack: “I understand, but I have to give you a reply in two days.” ”

Of course.” Pelinka reached out sideways, “You can go back and try to contact other agents first. ”

But I have to remind you that regarding the agent contract, you can’t just look at the commission, but also consider how much the agent can bring you.”

After all, in Pelinka’s eyes, Li Xingchen is only a 19-year-old The young boy did not understand the stakes involved.

“Don’t worry, I will reply to you as soon as possible. Goodbye.” Li Xingchen waved to Pelinka, and then he would go to the next team for a trial training.

Chapter 10 Last Practice—Charlotte Bobcats

Li Xingchen didn’t keep Rob Pelinka waiting. After he contacted the two brokerage companies, he found that they were pretty much the same.

Unless it is a potential star like Deron Williams and Chris Paul, the brokerage company will reduce the commission rate a lot.

As Pelinka said, since everything is similar, I would rather have a higher commission ratio than sign a good agent.

The cooperation between the two was finalized.

However, Li Xingchen added a premise, that is, only when his draft pick ranks in the top 20, there will be a 4% commission.

If you are below the top 20 picks, there is only a 2.5% commission.

Sure enough, with Pelinka’s help, the next trial team began to pay more attention to Li Xingchen’s shooting ability.

To a great extent, Li Xingchen’s shortcomings in other aspects were ignored.

All the teams that had handed Li Xingchen their business cards before had invited him for trial training, but the Bobcats had not responded.

After several rounds of individual team trials, there are also joint trials organized by many teams.

By this time, Li Xingchen’s market prediction had also improved from the top pick in the second round to the bottom pick in the first round.

After the joint trial ended, Li Xingchen wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked outside the arena.

“Pelinka, if this continues, it seems like you won’t be able to get your 4% commission.” Li Xingchen looked at Pelinka beside him and smiled helplessly.

Rob Pelinka showed a mysterious smile: “The matter is not over yet, and you are so unsure?” ”

Not really, it’s just that these teams don’t seem to be very optimistic about Asian players.”

This year is not a draft . In the new year, Li Xingchen thinks that his current strength has a chance to win the lottery.

Unfortunately, the outside world generally believes that Asian players are more susceptible to injuries, which has greatly affected their draft prospects.

“Have you forgotten that there is another team that has been paying attention to you?”

Li Xingchen showed a puzzled expression when he heard this: “Huh? The joint trial training is over. Those who should pay attention to me should have paid attention to me long ago.”

Pelinka didn’t show off: “Let’s go, next stop, Charlotte.”

The Bobcats’ home arena has just been renamed the Charlotte Bobcats Arena.

Li Xingchen walked into the venue accompanied by Pelinka.

“Li Xingchen, long time no see. Welcome!” The elderly Akyo opened his arms and walked slowly towards Li Xingchen.

Li Xingchen did not hesitate and quickly stepped forward to hug him.

Li Xingchen said half-jokingly: “Akyo, I almost thought you already had a better candidate.” ”

No, we only invited four of you for this trial training.” Akyo said and pointed to the venue. There are three people inside who are already warming up.

Li Xingchen is very familiar with these two people. The starting point guard, shooting guard and power forward of the University of North Carolina: Raymond Felton, Rashad McCants and Sean May.

I don’t know if the Bobcats are keen on the University of North Carolina, or because they are in the same state and relatively close to the University of North Carolina.

Three of the four North Carolina boys came.

When Li Xingchen saw his old rival, he smiled and said hello: “Hi, guys, long time no see!”

“Hi.” Sean Mei responded enthusiastically.

Raymond Felton just nodded politely. After all, Li Xingchen did caus
