NBA: This Center Is So Stable
Chapter 62
The two sides of the border are in chaos.
Chapter 62 Jordan, who was rejected, shocked the whole United States
“Scott, relax~ I don’t mean to steal your girlfriend!”
Jordan was the first to let go of his hand and spread his hands to prove his innocence.
Scott Layden was skeptical and made way for the passage in front.
Then Jordan walked up to Wang Song and added:
“Wang, do you have a sneaker endorsement contract now?”
Wang Song shook his head.
But he suddenly remembered what David Falk told him, Nike’s humiliating offer, combined with the relationship between Jordan and Nike.
Wang Song’s first reaction was that the other party was here to be a lobbyist.
“Mr. Michael, David Falk said you are his old acquaintance!”
“If you have any business problems, just contact him directly. My current focus is to play well.”
Seeing Wang Song’s rejection so straightforward, Jordan also understood that the other party might have misunderstood.
“No, no, no, Wang, I think there may be some misunderstanding.”
“I am not sent by Nike. I want to talk to you on behalf of Air Jordan.”
Jordan thought that after revealing his identity and explaining it clearly, the Asian boy on the other side would be ecstatic.
But Wang Song’s reaction was surprisingly flat.
AJ? Isn’t it still Nike!
“Let’s talk to Falk, Mr. Michael, you should have his contact information, I wish you all the best!”
After being rejected continuously, Jordan raised his eyebrows.
This was a result he had not expected, and he had a slightly changed his opinion of Wang Song.
This Asian boy was completely different from other rookies who were respectful to him. Instead, there was a sense of arrogance in this boy.
However, Jordan was not angry because he had seen all kinds of people over the years, including himself.
He knew that arrogance coexists with strength.
Once there is no matching strength, this arrogance is enough to destroy a person.
Looking at the back of Wang Song who was walking away, Jordan thought: “David, I seem to understand why you signed him.”
And this scene was also captured by the media on the scene.
Overnight, it became a top news and was published in major media, causing a big sensation in the American basketball world.
“Reject Jordan! Where does this Chinese boy get the confidence to be so arrogant?
” “The rookie that AJ brand can’t sign is actually an Asian!
” “Sincerity is rejected, the story of Michael Jordan’s promotion to the team management!
” The rookie with abnormal data of quasi-triple-doubles declined Jordan’s invitation, AJ may miss the league’s facade in the next ten years? !
” Jordan is ready to steal love from the Knicks? How can wild flowers be as fragrant as domestic flowers! 》
···
The next day.
All the major sports newspapers and sports websites were full of news.
For a moment, it seemed to overshadow Wang Song’s perfect debut performance, and even Steve Nash’s small universe explosion was ignored.
In this era, Jordan is still the top star without a doubt.
There was also a heated discussion in China about the post-match gossip and the content of the game.
But their focus was different from that of American fans.
Rather than rejecting Jordan, they were more concerned about Wang Song’s debut performance.
——【12 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists! Just looking at this data, I can’t even tell which position this player plays…】
——【Blind guess is a guard over two meters tall~】
——【These 8 assists really refreshed my cognition. A center with such a tall stature actually has such delicate hands. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn’t imagine it. 】
——【The first show was much easier than I thought. Wang Song really found his position on the court. In addition, the Son of Wind was also eye-catching. 】
Some fans also expressed their opinions on Wang Song’s rejection of Jordan without looking back after the game.
——【Nike was not sincere at all. Even if Jordan himself came to the court, the 5-year 5 million contract could not even touch the fraction of the No. 1 pick James. 】
——【In other words, that kind of insulting offer makes people feel that Nike has no sincerity at all. It’s like Nike wants to collect stamps of the top three rookies. The third pick is just a bonus. 】
——【It is rumored that Jordan negotiated with Wang Song on behalf of his own AJ brand, but the offer must not be much higher, just the name will sound better! 】
···
Knicks!
David Falk’s office.
After Wang Song rejected Jordan in his first show, after the media’s hype
The publicity and fermentation of a few days.
The name Wang Song also reached the top of the storm!
What surprised David Falk even more was that.
Wang Song’s arrogance not only did not make his reputation decline, but instead fueled the flames and attracted many business invitations.
Among them, there are many sneaker contracts that they have always been thinking about.
Reebok, a well-known sneaker manufacturer, directly tripled the contract price on Nike’s offer.
Reebok’s 5-year 15 million yuan offer seems sincere in comparison with its peers.
In fact, except for the sky-high sneaker contract of No. 1 draft pick James.
Most superstars’ sneaker contracts are priced at the same level.
Even Kobe, who had just won three championships at the time.
The contract renewal with Nike was only 45 million yuan for 5 years.
The price of 9 million yuan a year was already outstanding in that era!
As a rookie, and a center.
Reebok can be said to have shown its sincerity in the 3 million yuan sneaker contract for one year.
Even the well-informed Falk was slightly shaken.
“Wang! Reebok is still quite powerful! Although they are a fitness brand, the price they gave to Allen Iverson some time ago is still relatively fair. They also have some top stars. I think the first commercial contract should still show the basic value.”
Reebok’s offer made Falk a little distracted!
Wang Song looked at Falk with starry eyes and thought about it.
He could understand it, mainly because Nike was on the side, and Falk had some house-demolishing effect.
However, this price was still a little different from Wang Song’s psychological expectations, and another thing was just like Falk said.
Reebok is a fitness brand!
Wang Song was skeptical about the professionalism in sneakers. Combined with the mediocre Reebok in his memory, Wang Song shook his head.
“Falk, it still feels a little bit off!”
David Falk was in trouble after being rejected.
Anyway, he was just Wang Song’s agent, and the final decision still depended on this Asian boy.
“There should be no room for further negotiation on the price with Reebok, Wang, you have to think about this carefully.”
Wang Song nodded and said:
“Well! Reebok can pass directly!”
David Falk thought he had heard wrong, and confirmed with Wang Song again.
“What a picky young man! We do have bargaining chips in our hands, but after all, we are rookies, and asking for too high a price will not be recognized by the market.”
David Falk said earnestly.
Then he flipped through the sneaker manufacturers he had contacted before on the messy desk, trying to find a new direction from them.
“Huh?”
After picking up the business card and looking at it carefully, David Falk suddenly remembered.
“Isn’t this the company called Anta before? Didn’t you reject them? Why did you secretly leave your business card here!”
