NBA: The strongest talent

Yang Xu scored more than 30 points in five consecutive preseason games and led the Knicks to a complete victory.

He himself has also become the most outstanding of the rookies.

Even in the entire NBA, Yang Xu is the hottest one.

However, since Yang Xu has only played five games, the Knicks have not even had time to launch the jersey.

Therefore, Yang Xu’s popularity, as well as commercial value, there is no specific data show.

But the businessman’s sense of smell is sensitive, and major sports brands have already set their sights on Yang Xu.

Yang Xu’s hot performance, as well as the huge Xia Guo market behind him, were all attracting them.

Nike is the biggest sports brand and the fastest responder.

Nike directly sent Oliver, the head of New York, to Madison Square Garden and found Yang Xu.

The purpose of this trip, Oliver is to take advantage of Yang Xu’s not yet completely fire, with the lowest possible price to sign Yang Xu.

After all, at this time, even Yang Xu didn’t know what his commercial value was.

At this time, Yang Xu was training, and suddenly several people walked in and said that they were looking for him.

Yang Xu was also stunned for a moment, he didn’t have any friends here in New York, who would it be?

As a result, I saw two middle-aged people in suits and leather shoes, and they showed a very temperamental appearance, which can be described as gentle and elegant.

However, at the same time, he also shows a strong ability to control, and every move and every word seems to be mastering the initiative.

They took the initiative to stretch out their hands and introduce themselves to Yang Xu, “Hello Yang Xu, we are the head of Nike in New York, my name is Oliver, and this is my assistant Jean.” ”

Nike?

Is it time to talk about cooperation yourself?

Think about it, I’ve been in the NBA for months.

“Hello!” Yang Xu stretched out his hand in response, with a faint smile on his face

Seeing Yang Xu’s reaction, Oliver immediately noticed that Yang Xu was not a simple person.

Previous players, seeing themselves, are usually very excited or pretending to be calm.

After all, endorsement fees are a large part of NBA players’ income, and it is impossible not to pay attention to them.

But Yang Xu was too calm, and he really did not do joy, anger and sorrow.

“Yang Xu, your recent performance is too crazy, I have become your fan.” After the introductions between the two sides, Oliver said flattering words.

“You played the 76ers game, I watched the live broadcast on the Internet, and that free-throw line dunk was so wonderful!”

Yang Xu just smiled, “I’m glad someone likes me to play!” ”

After speaking, Oliver couldn’t figure out Yang Xu’s psychology even more.

His usual trick is to praise the players first, and when the players let down their guard, they have trust each other.

Start pouring cold water on the players, saying that the market is not good, etc.

Finally, the player will settle the account and introduce the benefits of signing Nike, and the general rookie players will be down by this set of processes.

They were particularly eager to sign and thought that Oliver was helping them.

But Oliver praised Yang Xu for a long time, and Yang Xu was very calm and did not show excitement at all.

Seeing that Yang Xu had no reaction, Oliver suggested finding a quiet place to discuss in detail.

But Yang Xu refused, “Right here!” There will be a lot of training later. ”

Yang Xu said while also taking Oliver to a rest place in the training ground.

Oliver fell into passivity, a little uncomfortable.

Yang Xu asked with concern: “Oliver, are you not used to talking about business here, if this is the case, I will go take a shower and we will go out to talk.” ”

“No, no, no, no thanks! Here it is! ”

“Okay, then here it is!”

The basketball around was loud and the players were running around.

From time to time, players come over to say hello to Oliver.

However, Oliver still insisted on using up his tricks and told Yang Xu that the market was not good now.

There are even sneakers that sell poorly, and in the end the company loses a lot of money.

However, throughout the process, Yang Xu was still smiling and couldn’t see anything else.

“So, Oliver, what’s the price you’re asking me?” When Oliver finished speaking, Yang Xu asked straight to the point.

Oliver was directly stunned, usually he said the price first, but he didn’t expect Yang Xu to take the initiative to ask the contract price.

“20 million in 5 years!” Ollie was also unambiguous and directly and confidently said the offer.

When Yang Xu heard this number, he just nodded slightly.

“Yang Xu, do you know what Griffin’s sneaker contract is?” Seeing that Yang Xu did not respond, Oliver continued.

Yang Xu shook his head.

“400,000 a year!” Oliver’s expression and his confidence, as if to say, Griffin only has 400,000 a year, you are ten times his price, you have no reason not to be impressed.

After Yang Xu was silent for a while, he finally spoke, “In comparison, I am indeed a lot taller!” ”

“Right! Our company is also very optimistic about you, so we offered you this price, that is, in history, this rookie contract is also high! Oliver stressed again.

He really didn’t lie, and this rookie contract was really good.

However, Yang Xu wants to be the first person in history, so the contract must also be the first contract in history.

He doesn’t want anything high, he wants first.
