Restricted Superstar

In mid-June, Chen Qiang hurried back to China, which also meant that Gao Xiaodong's leisurely vacation was over.

As Gao Xiaodong's reputation in China became more and more famous, in the middle of last season, he began to be favored by some businesses, especially in Lucheng, many businesses wanted to find Gao Xiaodong's endorsement.

It’s just that Hua Guo’s football is not only of poor level, but also of poor image. Even if the most successful overseas players such as Sun Huahai, not many businesses are willing to ask them to endorse. Gao Xiaodong is not a super handsome man, so naturally there will be no exceptions. The businesses he endorsed are small businesses that are not well-known.

As an agent who has been in Europe for many years, Chen Qiang has a good vision. He thinks that Gao Xiaodong has a great star. Now if he accepts some bad business endorsements for money, it is not good for Gao Xiaodong’s image, so he does not understand and do not understand. Appropriate merchants, regardless of the price, will be rejected.

But this time, Chen Qiang had to come back. There are two first-line brand sports goods companies in China who are going to ask Gao Xiaodong to be their image endorsements. These two sports goods companies have a good reputation and strong strength, and they are very suitable for players like Gao Xiaodong.

"What? You said that Stellar and Uber would like to ask me to endorse the image? Stellar has never hired football players to endorse it, right?" Gao Xiaodong was a little surprised. Uber is a new generation, but Stellar is a well-known enterprise in Shandong Province. It is definitely a first-line brand in China. Stellar football shoes used to be the favorite of the older generation of fans. Gao Xiaodong did not expect such a company to ask him to endorse it.

Chen Qiang just drove thousands of miles to Gao Xiaodong’s house, sat down and took a sip of the Longjing made by Gao’s father, and said, “Yes, Xiaodong, the national football has been very poor in recent years. No one in the entire Super League has a personal business contract. It is not easy for you to get the favor of these two companies. If you can seize the opportunity to take down the advertising endorsements and become famous, more and more businesses will look for your endorsements in the future."

Gao Xiaodong said: "How much is the endorsement fee?"

Chen Qiang said: "Stellar company opened 1.5 million in three years, and Uber opened two million in three years."

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Can you sign all of them?"

Chen Qiang said: "No, these two are both making sports goods, but they are looking for you to make sneakers, and they cannot be signed at the same time. Before 2000, there were cases where multiple products of the same category were endorsed at the same time, but now they don't work."

Gao Xiaodong said: "Which one do these two choose? Do you choose the higher price?"

Chen Qiang said: "It's hard to say. Stellar is a decades-old brand with strong strength. Although it is a bit downhill now, the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and the market share is still very high. Moreover, he is still an enterprise in your Shandong province. Your endorsement is justified, and the effect is better. Uber is an enterprise in Fujian Province, which has only been in business for six or seven years. In the past two years, it has barely entered the front line. However, their bosses are ambitious and have a strong upward momentum. They are also willing to give high prices and give up everything. It's a pity, let's talk about it. It's just a preliminary intention."

Gao Xiaodong said: "Will they come to Lucheng or shall we go there?"

Chen Qiang said, "Of course they came to Lucheng. They were looking for your endorsement, but we were not looking for them. You are not short of advertisers."

Gao Xiaodong complained: "In the past six months or so, how much have you pushed me? How much money is this? That's it, it's the word, it's not salt, and I can still get tired."

Chen Qiang said: "Can you also endorse kidney treasures, toilet paper and medicines? They are not big brands. They really want to endorse for money, and they may be black spots in the future."

Gao Xiaodong's face turned green, and said: "Why, do I really need these? Why aren't they fashionable things like watches and sunglasses."

Chen Qiang couldn't help but smile, and said: "Now the business looking for you is very good, not to mention the strength, and the career is close to yours, we have to grasp this opportunity."

Gao Xiaodong said: "That is necessary, but the money is a little bit less. If it is 2 million euros, what should I do? It's okay to lie on the ground and learn how to bark."

Chen Qiang's face turned green, and he said, "Master, you dare to imagine that our most outstanding star in China has just reached this number, let alone your current fame."

At this time, Father Gao came in and said, "Mr. Chen, the food is ready. They are all the local specialties you want to eat, as well as the ancient canal wine."

When Chen Qiang heard overjoyed, he rolled up his sleeves and rubbed his fists and said: "Uncle Gao, you know, since I finished eating spicy chicken at your house that time, I thought about it day and night, and now I can finally eat it."

Father Gao didn’t understand the meaning of "Fresh Food", and said: "Chop the fish in a big chunk? Yes, don’t worry, Mr. Chen. Potsticker stewed fish cubes, the canal carp used, don’t look at the reputation of the fish head with chopped pepper. The taste Not bad at all."

Chen Qiang was stunned, but he woke up immediately and said with a smile: "Yes, okay, Uncle Gao, let's eat now."

After a while, the senior mother brought ten kinds of dishes, including spicy chicken, spicy chicken, potsticker fish cubes, and mutton soup.

Chen Qiang couldn't help it for a moment. He came up with a chopsticks spicy chicken, chewed a few times, swallowed, closed his eyes, and had a beautiful aftertaste, and said: "It tastes so good, Aunt Gao, just rely on it. You treat me with such delicious dishes, next time I will take you to Europe for a trip to watch the Xiaodong competition."

Gao mother said quickly, "That can't go."

Father Gao hurriedly stepped on Gao's mother's foot and said: "Where do we have time to go to Europe to play? The store at home can't be closed."

Chen Qiang said with a dumb smile: "Uncle Gao, you still use you to sell seafood, do you know what Xiaodong's annual salary is now?"

Father Gao froze for a moment, and said, "How much?"

Gao Xiaodong touched Chen Qiang and said, "Mom and dad, I have raised my salary again, 200,000 euros a year."

Where did Gao and Gao know the exchange rate, and said: "How much is two hundred thousand euros?"

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "It's almost 2 million yuan."

"what?!"

"Two million yuan!"

Gao father and mother were shocked, they couldn't believe their ears at all.

In Lucheng, an ordinary employee in a public institution is only 1,300 yuan a month, and Gao Xiaodong actually said that he earns 2 million yuan a year, which is simply unbelievable.

Gao Xiaodong was afraid that his parents would faint, and said quickly: "This is RMB 2 million before tax, and 42% of the tax is still to be paid."

Gao's father Huo got sober and said: "What? A 42% tax? Wouldn't it be 840,000?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "Yes."

Father Gao said angrily: "It's too dark! Capitalist countries are really too dark! Is it easy for players to work hard? Socialism is better."

Chen Qiang coughed: "We, China, will charge a 45 percent personal tax."

"what!"

"what!"

Father Gao sighed, "The crows in the world are as dark as the ravens. We common people make some hard money. They don't do anything, so we take half of it."

Gao mother said: "Don't get into the eye of the money, more than one million a year, not a lot, I have been with you for a lifetime."

Father Gao came back happily and said: "Yes, you can't think about unhappy things. This is a good thing. But, President Chen, is this true? Xiao Dong doesn't have the truth in his mouth."

This time he didn't tell the truth, Chen Qiang smiled secretly, but said, "Can I still tell you the truth?"

Father Gao sighed: "He is a bit more real to outsiders than to Lao Tzu."

When Chen Qiang heard this, he was speechless.

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Outsiders are more generous to me than you, Lao Tzu."

Father Gao said angrily: "If you want to be like this, you will starve to death a long time ago, and you will be too fat to walk."

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "I'm fat because of talent. Drinking cold water and northwest wind will grow flesh."

Father Gao said: "You **** mean that I gave birth to a monster and I killed you."

Gao Xiaodong said: "Kill to death, die early and reborn early, be a rich second generation, eat, drink, prostitute, gamble, bully men and women, how good, alas, it's hard to be a rich generation."

Father Gao stared: "Smelly boy, are you saying that your father is incompetent?"

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Where, where, at least you have a great son."

Chen Qiang was worried that Father Gao would be angry, but Father Gao smiled and said triumphantly: "If your kid had not inherited my genes, if you can have this day, your father would have been born at an untimely time, so he set up a stall to sell seafood. Otherwise, the **** may not be worse than you."

"Dad, I was defeated by you." Gao Xiaodong folded his hands together in a gesture of surrender.

I rub, this wonderful father and son. Chen Qiang almost laughed.

After talking and laughing, everyone drank and talked happily, and finally Gao Fu and Chen Qiang were drunk in the fragrance of wine and vegetables in the canal. It's better to play football and ask for monthly pass
