Back in New York, Wang Jun received a Christmas gift in advance. Ryan Hughes brought Nike to him with an endorsement contract. If there is no objection, he can sign the contract in the evening. √∟

The contract was significantly improved, and it was eventually signed for $15 million and its business share for three years.

Wang Jun shouted after seeing the numbers: "How did you improve so much? Am I dreaming, am I?"

He twisted himself, not dreaming.

Hughes took out his ears and smiled, "You can just keep your voice down, this is what you won by yourself. These four games are so beautiful. Many people are optimistic about your future. If there is competition from merchants, it is easier to raise prices."

"Lei, thank you." Wang Jun knew that it must be not that simple.

"I want to thank you for your trust, too."

An experienced agent is very important. If Wang Jun’s agent is a rookie, he might persuade him to sign the contract early, and it is possible to make 10 million less.

Wang Jun did not play well against the Grizzlies and looked unstable. Hughes chose to drag him and compete with the merchants for patience.

Of course, it is very risky to do this. The key is whether Wang Jun can play well in the future. His condition may scare the merchant away.

Hughes was optimistic about Wang Jun and was willing to take a gamble, but he won the bet.

Wang Jun has double rebounds, and Adidas has raised its offer, hoping that he will become another No. 0 star after Arenas. They had just signed an 8-year, 40 million long-term contract with Arenas.

Reebok also made a big move and was willing to provide Wang Jun with a big contract. It was worth less than Yao Ming, but it was also very sincere. Yao Ming was the top scorer. Wang Jun was in the second round.

Nike has lost Yao Ming and does not want to suffer a second loss. He immediately raised the price and promised to create exclusive combat boots for Wang Jun.

As long as he can be selected as the All-Star within these three years, he will definitely renew a high-value long-term contract. The specific amount depends on his data at that time.

Hughes explained that there were consequences and specifically mentioned James.

"You have to thank LeBron for saying you good things to the person in charge of Nike. With the equivalent endorsement fee, Nike believes that investing in you is better than Arenas because you have high emotional intelligence."

"I have a high EQ? Are you kidding? Abby often says that my mind cannot move, and he is a fool." Wang Jun said without any hesitation.

Hughes guessed that they were flirting and shook his head: "As long as they can accept interviews and don't talk nonsense, according to the merchant's standards, even if the emotional intelligence is high, except for the elbow at the beginning, your image is very good, your teammates have a good relationship, and you have become friends with James and Odom."

"I will keep it up." Wang Jun felt that this was normal and easy.

When you see a big-name player, even if you don’t ask the other party to “take me to pretend to be a b and take me to fly”, you should do your best to save face and say hello and smile. Who can’t answer any questions or answers?

If this is called high emotional intelligence, Wang Jun can't even think of any signs of low emotional intelligence.

Is it that I ignore my teammates?

Or see who provokes whom?

Even James and Anthony dare not play like this. It’s not that they have high EQ. It’s that they have too low IQ.

He still has too little knowledge, and there are so many mentally retarded people.

For example, before participating in the 1984 NBA draft, the 76ers management decided to choose Charles Barkley and notified him to lose weight. In order to prevent Philadelphia from choosing him, the latter gained more than ten pounds a week after eating Haisai.

His thoughts were naive: "As long as I get fat, the 76ers will not want me." But in the end, it was difficult to escape his fate, so the 76ers chose him.

For example, one night in 2002, Yao Ming's doorbell, who was resting in the away hotel, was ringing. When he opened the door, he saw a heavy makeup Chinese American leaning against the door, with apricot noodles in his apricot. That was a gift from his teammate Griffin at the time who thought he was giving Yao Ming.

For example, the fledgling Kobe yelled at Malone in the star game: "Get out! I want to fight Jordan alone!"

In short, Wang Jun is very happy to be praised for his high emotional intelligence and has no objection to the details of advertising endorsements. He can't wait to become a rich man.

He immediately called Abby, who was far away in Cleveland, chatted for a while, and then called James to thank him.

James was very calm: "I actually didn't do anything. Nike called me and asked if I think you can become a star in the future. I said I can, you will be better than Hamilton."

"Your two words will work. I will treat you next time I meet you and go to the best restaurant! Thank you!"

"You're welcome."

Hamilton is a good benchmark, averaging 20+ per game in a single season. He has not been selected as an All-Star and is considered a quasi-star.

James suddenly said, "I have to apologize to you for something."

"What's up?"

"There is a game in Christmas vs. The Cavaliers, and Abby has to celebrate the festival here. You must be very depressed, right?" James teased.

The Nets had a game against the Bulls on the 26th. Now it snowed everywhere in the eastern part of the United States. Wang Jun could fly to Cleveland, but if the flight was delayed due to heavy snow, he might miss the game and he could only stay in New York.

Wang Jun smiled bitterly and said, "There is no choice but to live at home by yourself. If Abby encounters difficulties there and needs help, you can pay more attention."

James suggested: "You have a two-year contract, and after the transfer to Cleveland next season, everything will be resolved."

"It's better to be exempted. I'm very happy in New York..."

After chatting for a while, Wang Jun hung up the phone.

Wang Jun was afraid of James' poaching offensive, so he had no objection to being a teammate. It would be impossible to go to Cleveland, that city was too bad.

Cleveland's label in American culture is a gathering place for losers, a natural joke, the poorest city, the garbage among garbage, and the most miserable city in the United States.

This city has a status in the United States roughly the same as Tieling in China. It has a large area but is very poor.

When James was interviewed, he insisted that he was Akron, not Cleveland, and he really didn't want to "become" a Cleveland.

If you say you are "Akronese" in any public place, you will only say "Oh, people from a small place will not be easy to this point today."

But if you are a Clevelander, that's all.

Tieling’s jokes are only mentioned by Zhao Benshan, and Cleveland is the “worst place on earth” among many jokers, “where everyone wants to escape”, and “a place that is more difficult than escaping from North Korea”.

Not long ago, a Russian talk show comedian also improvised a joke: "Clevelanders, don't be too sad because you are ridiculed by everyone in the United States. You must know that every country will laugh at some cities. For example, in Russia, we will laugh at Cleveland."

Although the team contract and advertising endorsement contract cannot be compared with James, Wang Jun immediately balanced his team and felt a little superior.

After playing the Bulls on the 26th, the Nets will challenge the Pacers back-to-back away.

The Pistons, one of the main competitors in the East, are obviously not a Nets opponent. The game against the Pacers is more critical. As long as you can win easily, the Nets' playoffs will be easy.
