NBA: Starting with the Devil’s Eyes

......

Every time Wang Zuxian comes to the United States, she is always in such a hurry.

This time, after two days, I returned to Hong Kong Island.

Now she is too ~ busy.

A few days later, the Free Market was opened.

Since the opening of the free market, the Lakers, on their side, immediately began to trade.

The first is to send Sam Perkins out.

The Lakers and Trail Blazers completed the deal.

The Trail Blazers sent their backup power forward, Clifford Robinson.

The Lakers sent Sam Perkins.

Sam Perkins' ability, after going to the Trail Blazers, will only enhance the strength of the Trail Blazers.

In this year's playoffs, the Trail Blazers reached the Finals but were defeated by the Bulls.

They now desperately need to strengthen their squad.

Clifford Robinson does have a lot of potential.

But for the current pioneers, that is, combat power is what they need most.

Sam Perkins, who has been in the league for nine years, is obviously more effective than Clifford Robinson, a third-year player.

Moreover, when Sam Perkins was with the Lakers in the 90-91 season, he was also generous in the playoffs.

After Jerry West saw the chips of the Trail Blazers, he sent Sam Perkins out without any hesitation.

Sam Perkins can't stay.

And the new Clifford Robinson is very good.

Able to run and jump, and have some projection ability, it fits Jerry West's team-building needs.

After the deal was made, the Lakers traded all the players they could.

And after Lu Yu saw this deal, he thought that the Lakers would definitely make a lot of money.

Clifford Robinson is just showing his potential right now.

But no one could have predicted that he would win the Sixth Man of the Year award in the 92-93 season.

In addition, he has won the Defensive Team of the Year honor.

Clifford Robinson is definitely a very good addition to the current Lakers.

After the free market opened, the Lakers immediately held a press conference to hold a signing ceremony for Lu Yu and the madman.

In the signing of the contract, Lu Yu chose a contract of 414 million, with an average annual salary of 3.5 million.

The starting salary is 3 million, increasing year by year.

This is a very normal contract signed.

And this contract is not low in the current league.

In the 92-93 season, with a salary of 3 million, it can rank 17th in the league.

You must know that the current highest salary in the league is only David Robinson's 5.72 million.

Jordan's salary is only 4 million, and his salary of 4 million ranks second in the league...

The salaries of players in this era are so low.

The salary of the highest-paid player is the same as the salary of the middle-class player 20 years from now.

It's a hard thing to believe.

But the NBA's skyrocketing wages over the years also say something.

That's the NBA is getting more and more profitable!

In later generations, the salaries of 30 million, 40 million, and even 50 million or 60 million were even a bit mediocre...

And now, Lu Yu can only hold a contract of 3 million.

Compared with the later generations, it is indeed a little unbalanced!

So you can't play all the time.

If you continue to fight at this salary level, you will still be poor when you retire!

So you still need to do some business and make some money and spend money.

The madman signed a 4-year, 6 million contract.

Because he was selected with the 16th pick, his contract amount is relatively small.

The average annual salary is 1.5 million, and the starting salary is 1.2 million, increasing year by year.

At the press conference, the madman chose his jersey number, number 15.

Then the reporter began to ask him questions.

"What do you hope to do with the Lakers this season? What do you want to say about joining the Lakers?"

"I'm so excited to be on the Lakers!"

"It's a team with a lot of heritage and I want to be a part of the history of this team. "

"I'm sure the Lakers will be able to regroup and stand at the top of the league again soon!"

"Under the leadership of Mr. Jerry West and Coach McDonleavy, the Lakers will achieve a 360-degree turnaround next season!!"

After hearing the madman's words, Lu Yu directly covered his face.

Mathematics education in the United States is really not good.

After hearing the madman's words, the reporter was stunned for a moment, and then felt that something was wrong.

360-degree turn?

Isn't that a little wrong?

If I'm not mistaken, when the teacher was lecturing, 360 degrees were called circumferential angles.

360 degrees is a circle.

Does your 360-degree transformation mean standing still?

Should you be talking about a 180-degree shift?

As the saying goes, someone's attitude has a 180-degree turn, but no one says a 360-degree turn.

Lu Yu looked at the crazy and embarrassed madman, quickly pushed the madman away, and snatched the microphone.

"What he means is that he wants to be able to recreate his glory with the Lakers. "

When Lu Yu spoke, the reporters also let go of the madman and began to ask questions to Lu Yu.

"Why did you choose the number 1 shirt?"

Lu Yu said: "Because it's simple and easy to remember. "

Reporter:......

"So do you think you'll be able to get the Lakers back into the playoffs?"

Lu Yu was very smart and didn't touch this problem at all, he said:

'It's my first year of career and my main task is to gain experience and we will follow the coach's instructions and the coaches of the team. "

'We will work harder in training and on the field to live up to the expectations that are expected of us. "

After Lu Yu finished speaking, he glanced at the madman.

See, this special thing is called a speech.

It seems to be a bunch of words, but it's actually all nonsense.

And journalists can't find fault with you yet.

The madman nodded thoughtfully.

"Mr. Jerry West, did you choose Lu Yu in the hope that he could become the second magician?"

The reporter turned the microphone to Jerry West again.

The logo man is more oily.

"First of all I need to correct you for a mistake, we're not messing around. "

'We're in the throes of losing Maji right now and the results we don't want to see. "

"We are very fortunate to be able to acquire a player of Lu Yu's quality during the labor pain. "

"As for the question of whether he is the second Magician, I want to tell you that his passing is indeed as flashy as Maji's, but he also has other tricks, and he has his own style of basketball. "

"He is the first Lu Yu, not the second magician. ""

After this sentence was uttered, the media were very interested in recording it in their notebooks.

Be the first Lu Yu, not the second magician.

After the 1ogo man said this, he looked towards Lu Yu.

Lu Yu smiled and nodded slightly.

In fact, this sentence was told to Jerry West when Lu Yu went to the Lakers for a tryout.

Now, Jerry West said it in front of the media.

After finishing the press conference, West looked at the two teenagers.

"Are you ready for this year's Summer League?"

After saying that, he looked at the madman.

The madman asked in some surprise, "Don't you play summer league?"

"He has other plans, so he's not going," West said. "

"And, we're scared of him getting injured in the summer league. "

10,000 Crit!!

When he heard West's last words, the madman was directly heartbroken.

Damn, you're worried about Lu Yu's injury, so you don't let him play in the summer league.

But why aren't you worried about me getting hurt?

I'm also a rookie!(Read the violent novel, just go to the Feilu Novel Network!)

I need to be pampered too!

At this time, the madman felt as if he was back in time at the University of Alabama.

When I was at the University of Alabama, the coach used to do this kind of thing.

Remember, it was a warm-up game against Anfernee Hardaway's Tennessee State Teachers College.

After Lu Yu played the first half of the game, he was directly replaced to rest.

And the reason given by the coach was that he was afraid of Lu Yu's injury.

Now, dead memories are attacking the madman again.

The madman suddenly felt that the world was not worth it!

West was very helpless, because Jeff Austin had greeted him in advance because of this matter.

The Lakers also have other considerations, so the matter of Lu Yu playing in the summer league can indeed be skipped.

Lu Yu looked at the aggrieved madman, patted the madman's back, and said:

"I still have some things to do at home, so I need to go back to China. "

"You're playing well in the Summer League, and you're going to have to play your stats pretty without me stealing the ball from you. "

The madman said, "No, Lu, you never robbed me of the ball!"

"We're partners, aren't we?"

Lu Yu nodded and said, "Yes, we are partners!"

"Go ahead, I'll take your spirit and finish the game for you!" said the madman solemnly.

"! I'm just back home, and I haven't gone to see Jesus yet. "

After hearing the madman's words, Lu Yu knew that this was better than a dog's mouth that couldn't spit out ivory.

"You go back first, and Mr. West and I will go to the finance department. "

"??" the madman was a little puzzled, "What are you doing in the financial office?"

"Withdraw money. "

"What are you doing with the money?"

"To start a business, I want to sell sneakers. "

"When did you start selling sneakers? Let me tell you, you just specialize in AJ1, it's definitely easy to sell!"

"Lao Tzu created his own sports brand, not a shoe seller..."

"Damn, you've created your own sports brand?

"I returned to China some time ago, and now I need to continue to operate the brand when I return to China. "

The madman felt that he had been thrown by Lu Yu for 108,000 miles.

"You're taking too big a step..."

The madman said with some shock, and added in a low voice: "Be careful to tear your crotch." "

"I have long legs, and I can't pull my crotch in my life. "

Lu Yu refuted.

"Then can you get me some money too? I'm short of money to spend. "

After the madman finished speaking, he looked at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu looked at West.

West fiddled with his tie and said, "That's not going to work." "

"Why can Lu Yu withdraw the money?

"Because he has a valid reason to invest in a sports brand," West said. And his major is economics, I believe him. "

"I'm not an economics major, but I want to invest. The madman said.

"Oh, let's see, what do you want to invest in?"

"Real estate, the Internet, or the restaurant industry?"

"It's barely a restaurant business. The madman pondered for a moment, looked up and said, "I'm going to invest in a nightclub!"

West waved his hand, "You'd better honestly wait for the season to start and get paid." "

"But Lu Yu..." the madman was still unwilling.

He also agreed to replace the training hall with a batch of equipment within two years. "

West said leisurely at this time.

"Donate! is a donation. Lu Yu emphasized.

"Yes, donate!" West nodded.

Owner Jerry Buss is too picky, and the team's equipment hasn't been updated for years.

Now that someone is willing to donate, that's naturally good~

The prerequisite is that the first year's salary is advanced first.

This one is operable.

"Oh," the madman immediately laughed when he heard this.

"Hahaha, I see, I see. "

"You two please. "

Lu Yu, this guy is really good at being a man!

When I was in college, I gave gifts to coaches.

After entering the NBA, can you still give gifts to the team?

No way!

I said before that people don't know how to be sophisticated.

I'm still too young!

This is the best human sophistication!

I'm ashamed...

At this time, the madman dialed the phone of his agent, Jeff Austin.

"Hey, Jeff, borrow some more money to spend. "

"I'll have to wait until the season starts. "

......

Lu Yu's salary in the first year was 3 million, and after paying various taxes and alliance custody fees, there was still about 1.1 million left.

After getting the money, Lu Yu first returned the 300,000 borrowed from Jeff Austin.

After seeing the more than 300,000 US dollars returned, Jeff Austin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Yu, this kid, is honest.

The interest on the borrowed money that Lu Yu promised before was also transferred.

In this way, Lu Yu has less than 800,000 US dollars left here.

He immediately began to transfer funds to [Lu Yu Sports]'s account.

At the same time, I also set off for China.

Domestically, the matter of the [Lu Yu Sports] store has begun to operate.

The factory no longer provides purchase to small traders, and only ships to large dealers.

At the same time, the interior decoration of the [Lu Yu Sports] store has also been designed.

And according to Lu Yu's requirements, each store also prepared a color TV.

It is used to play Lu Yu's highlights in March Madness for publicity.

This videotape was naturally brought back by Lu Yu from the United States.

By the end of August, all of these things were pretty much done.

Lu Yu has another task, that is, his signature shoes, which can start to open the mold.

The production of sneakers is still very troublesome.

The cost required is very different from that of garment production.

Of course, shoes are naturally expensive.

The design drawings are still from Lu Yu.

Lu Yu is now going to roll out two production lines.

One is to produce its own signature basketball shoes.

The other, the production of women's sneakers, the pair he planned to give to Wang Zuxian, was the first pair of sneakers in this production line.

After all these things are done.

Lu Yu left the country by plane again and continued his NBA journey.
