I am Really an Insider

　　 The next afternoon, Wayne met with Nike’s negotiators in the room of a five-star hotel in New York as planned.

　　 Wayne is actually not used to this kind of occasion. In the past two days, various interviews and talks have basically filled Wayne's life.

　　 Running around in suits and shoes made Wayne feel extremely tired.

　　 Old Sutton is right. After having an agent, Wayne doesn’t need to spend time to tangled things off the court.

　　 But... Wayne's time has also been fully arranged.

　　 Chinese media interviews accounted for the majority. It is said that CCTV is preparing a documentary about Wayne participating in the draft.

　　 I haven't played an NBA game yet, and the level of attention is just like that. Is this the power of the semi-final MOP+ Chinese market?

　　 "Wayne, I'm very happy to meet you. We were ready to sign a contract with you very early. Under Nike, your influence will definitely continue to expand."

　　 Wayne approached, the Nike representative shook hands with Wayne kindly, and then looked at the grinning Schwartz very vigilantly.

　　 As everyone knows, this middle-aged man who looks harmless to humans and animals is the big boss today.

　　 After a simple greeting, both sides cut to the topic. The Nike representative came up with a contract called "No one can be more sincere than us"-a five-year 10 million, cash contract.

　　 Sneaker contracts are generally divided into three types: signature shoe contracts, cash contracts and merchandise contracts.

　　 Signature shoe contract, as the name suggests, is that the company will launch a special signature shoe for you, which is generally exclusive to superstars.

　　 Commodity contract is that the company does not give you salary, but will provide you with free equipment. Most people on the periphery of the alliance sign this.

　　 And most NBA players sign cash contracts, that is, they can get endorsement fees and free use of equipment, but they have not yet reached the point where they have signed shoes.

　　 In fact, for an ordinary No. 12 rookie, this contract is really not bad.

　　 2 million a year, about the same as the annual salary of a rookie contract.

　　 But in Schwartz's eyes, Wayne is not a "normal" No. 12 rookie.

　　Ordinary 12 show, can there be Wayne in the back market?

　　 The price of the sneaker contract has nothing to do with the order, it just depends on how good you are.

　　 "Well, this contract...I'll tell the truth, it's far from what we expected." Schwartz shrugged, without making any inflections.

　　 "Mr. Schwartz, you know the market."

　　 "Of course, but I think you should also remember how you missed Yao." Schwartz played his first hand.

　　 Sure enough, the Nike representative paused as soon as he said this.

　　 In 2003, Chairman Yao planned to renew his contract with Nike.

　　 As a result, Nike’s offer to Chairman Yao was only a ridiculous 1.6 million for 4 years...

　　 Obviously, the Yao Ming team rejected such an offer, and at the time Nike was surprised that they would reject it.

　　 After this, Reebok took advantage of the vacancy and successfully pried Chairman Yao away with a 7-year 50 million contract.

　　 In this way, Nike and China's most commercially valuable athletes passed by.

　　 This incident has been extremely annoying to Nike executives.

　　 Therefore, when Schwartz moved out of this matter, the Nike representative was not calm.

　　 This can be regarded as stepping on Nike's painful foot, warning them not to make the same mistake on Wayne again.

　　 "We can add another $1 million in signing fees. This is the biggest concession, Mr. Schwartz."

Wayne on the side of 　　 has been stunned for a long time, this Nima tens of millions of knives in your mouth is just like talking about it... 1 million signing fee and arrange it.

　　 No, I became a professional player. I still have to keep up with my temperament in the future, cough cough... I can’t be like Tony anymore.

　　 "Well...Let's think about it, can we?" Schwartz pretended to be thoughtful, but he didn't think about it at all.

　　 "Of course, of course, don't worry."

　　 "Okay, Wayne really needs a break. Tomorrow, he will have to meet with Adidas. By the way, Reebok the day after tomorrow." Schwartz said, turning his head to Wayne.

　　 "Yes, yes, I'm a little tired, let's go back and think about it first." Wayne nodded in agreement.

　　 Schwartz played the second card, continued to press, and told Nike in a different direction: "You don't raise the price, some people are willing to raise it."

　　 The Nike representative has a solemn expression, although he knows that Wayne and Schwartz sing together on purpose.

　　 But Adidas... they are really willing to take the blood and Nike to grab people.

　　 Nike just missed Chairman Yao, but Adidas missed James last year!

　　 Among all sports brands, Adidas was the closest to James, and they are even close to signing.

　　 But then Adidas suddenly withdrew the offer due to the disagreement of the senior executives, and the cooperation was awkwardly terminated.

　　 Now, Adidas must have regretted their intestines, and they also deeply know the truth that they can't bear the sword and the wolf.

　　 Therefore, Adidas’s offer will certainly not be lower, at least not lower than Nike.

　　 They can no longer let any potential player slip away from them, let alone a player sitting on the Chinese market.

　　 This is the competition in the sneaker market.

　　 After the continuation of David Stern, another one to drive up Wei's price came.

　　 Schwartz looked at the expression of the Nike representative and smiled triumphantly.

　　 Yao Ming's commercial value can be seen by a fool now.

　　 Although he said he doesn't sell shoes inside, his influence is still there.

　　 You can not believe that Wayne can become the next Yao Ming, but you also have to bet.

　　 You don’t bet, some people bet.

　　 What's more, what Schwartz has been emphasizing is: "Wei is playing on the outside line, and his sneaker sales will never pull his hips like a normal inside line."

　　 Sure enough, the next day, the news that Adidas offered 10 million yuan in 3 years spread throughout the circle.

　　Although they are all 10 million, this is only a three-year contract for Adidas.

　　 They have won the 04th No. 1 pick Howard, which is considered to be ahead of Nike strategically, and now they are chasing after Wayne.

　　 This time of three years is also a thief. If you lose the bet, you can throw your hands away as soon as possible to stop the loss in time. If the bet is won, Adidas also has the right to match the offer.

　　 On the third day, Reebok said it was willing to pay 13 million in three years.

　　 After you sing, I will appear on the stage. This wave of price wars has been very lively.

　　 Nike’s offer was completely suppressed, and the situation is getting worse.

　　 Finally, they couldn't hold back anymore and invited Schwartz and Wayne for a second meeting.

　　 But unexpectedly, Schwartz did not agree!

　　The reason is: "We are having a deeper exchange with Adidas."

　　 Actually, Wayne didn't go anywhere that day, so he took his parents to play in New York.

　　 What kind of "deeper communication" is nothing more than a trick played by Schwartz.

　　 Such a small game lasted for 24 hours before Schwartz told Nike: "The second meeting is ok, but the price must be sincere, because Wayne and Adidas are close to signing."

　　 In other words, this is Nike's last chance.

　　 Wayne capitalized clothes.

　　 Schwartz’s operation has kept Wayne in the initiative in the whole thing.

　　 This feels really cool, because in the previous draft, the initiative was in the hands of the team, and Wayne could only be picked.

　　 Now that I have mastered the initiative once, I know what my territory is and I am in charge.

　　 Mainly because Wayne himself didn't worry about anything, he should eat and sleep every day, and just sit and watch his worth go up.

　　 If I change a small agent to deal with this matter, it is estimated that when I heard the first 10 million quotation, I would be paralyzed.

　　 After all, 10 million is drawn 15%, which is not a small amount.

　　 So when they met for the second time, Nike couldn't stand it anymore and showed his cards.

　　 25 million in 3 years, plus 1 million signing fee, plus two bonus clauses:

　　 Get the best rookie award of 1 million, and the best rookie award of 1 million.

　　 Zero and zero finally came down, 28 million in 3 years, and the 3 years 30 million of No. 1 Spark is no different.

　　 This is a full stud with Adi!

　　 China market + driving up Wei's price, that's how valuable it is.

This time Nike’s offer directly stopped Adidas and Reebok. They were also telling the other two: "If you grab it, you have to grab it. This man is going to make a decision! Yao Ming missed it, and Wayne must not miss it again. "

　　 Schwartz also knows that this is Nike's final offer. After all, they have already forced them into this, indicating that this is their highest price.

　　 If you push it again, people may just stop playing.

　　 When you see it, you will accept it, too greedy will only be empty-handed.

　　 Schwartz nodded and asked Wayne to sign the contract.

　　 28 million in 3 years, Nike made twists and turns, and finally earned Wayne under his command.

　　 The Nike representative was about to cry.

　　 If he misses Wayne after Yao Ming, it is estimated that he will lose his job.

　　 Although it is 2 million less than the No. 1 pick Howard, but for a rookie with the 12th overall pick, the contract is nearly sky-high.

　　 Wayne’s endorsement fee will be calculated from next month and will be paid on average every month for three years.

　　 But the 1 million signature fee was immediately given to Wayne.

　　 After sending away the Nike representative, Schwartz loosened his bow tie and drank a large glass of cold water, looking relieved.

　　 Don't think Schwartz is always calm when negotiating, but he is actually under tremendous pressure.

　　 It's just that he can't show his stressed side.

　　 "Huh, sorry Wei, in the end it still didn't reach 30 million."

　　 "This is already very good, Jeff, much higher than expected." Wayne could see that Schwartz had indeed tried his best.

　　 "Haha, you are satisfied. Now that you have $1 million in your hand, you can go and buy what you want."

　　 Schwartz smiled. Generally, players like Wayne’s age will buy themselves a sports car first.

　　 Well, I will definitely take my family on a shopping spree tonight.

　　 But Wayne's next words exhaled Schwartz's expectation: "Then I will first give the fees you paid before the draft, and Tony's share is mine.

　　 By the way, Jeff, the trainer named Mike Mancias, can you still reach him? I want him to be my personal trainer, preferably for five years.

There is also a press officer. I need a press officer. Experienced is the best. I don’t want to write a press release by myself~www.ltnovel.com~ Also, I think we can sign a long-term contract. I am very satisfied with my performance during this time, Jeff. "

　　 After Wayne finished speaking, he found Schwartz was looking at himself with doubts.

　　 "Uh... I'm sorry Jeff, you should rest for a few days, it's been a hard time."

"No, I didn't mean that. It's just...Wayne, you are really special. Don't worry, what you need is on my body. As for the long appointment...Thank you for your trust. "

　　 Schwartz smiled and drank again. He didn't know if he was betting right this time.

　　 But he feels that he has a high probability of winning the bet!

　　 Early the next morning, Wayne signed the news of Nike with $28 million, which directly exploded.

　　 Everyone exclaimed: "What is the excitement of Nike?"

　　 "28 million, sign a No. 12 rookie? Who can do this kind of thing!?"

　　 "Wayne is ready to retire. He has received money that many NBA players can't get in their lives."

　　 "The mysterious eastern power is terrible!"

　　 And while people are still discussing such silly things, Wayne has already done two things.

　　First, get Mancias and the press officer.

　　 The press officer is a 31-year-old girl named Jenny.....Uh, big sister, let’s call her Aunt Jenny for now...

　　 Second, Wayne resumed training to prepare for the upcoming summer league.

　　 As a result, Wayne has become the hottest rookie outside of Howard.

　　 Everyone wants to know whether the No. 12 rookie who signed a contract with Nike is a joke or a myth.
