Chapter 94 The Hornets' Contract Renewal
As soon as the copy of the basketball training space came out, Jack's agent, Pelinka, called immediately, "Hello, Mr. Michael Jack, I'm your agent, Pelinka."

Seeing that it was Pelinka, his manager, Jack quickly picked up his mobile phone and pressed the answer button, "Hey, Pelinka, what do you want me to do?"

"It's about your signing. You also know that your current money contract is a non-guaranteed half-year contract. Now I have received offers from several teams. I am calling now just to consult you comments, signing issues," Pelinka replied.

Jack suddenly became interested, not that Jack wanted to leave the New Orleans Hornets.Rather, because he wanted to know how much he was worth in the eyes of the experts.

"I'll send you a report later, but you can consider these few. The Chicago Bulls want to sign you a five-year high-salary contract with $5 million in five years. The Lakers The sincerity is not small, they gave 5 for 3000 years. And the Celtics in Boston are very optimistic about your defensive ability, and they have made two-handed preparations in order to get you. First, they are preparing Seek a deal with the Hornets. Second, they want and can sign you with a lot of money, and their offer is $4 million for three years..." Pelinka picked up the phone and began to talk incessantly.

After Jack heard Pelinka talk about offers from other teams, Jack's mouth almost fell off.Dollar bills!These are some white bills!As long as you sign the contract, the money will be deposited into your bank card on schedule.

However, after a moment of astonishment, Jack regained his calm expression.

Seeing that Jack had lost his voice on the phone, Pelinka quickly began to suggest to Jack: "Mr. Michael Jack, this is the offer from fifteen teams in the league. You can think about it. If you decide to sign, you can Tell me, these conditions can still be negotiated."

"Oh! Why is there no offer from the Hornets here?" Jack asked very curiously.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's just that their quotation is a little low. They only gave a three-year, 3 guaranteed contract. I think you have more than this price." Pelinka explained.

"Then sign it with the Hornets! But I think I only want to sign a one-year short contract." Jack replied.

Pelinka was also stunned. With Jack's current conditions, he can play in better places. Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago are just a matter of words.

"Mr. Jack, have you really decided? Don't you want to try other cities? For example, Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York to play in some big places?" Pelinka said.

"Well, I really haven't thought about this one. My only goal now is to bring a championship to the New Orleans Hornets. Only after this goal is achieved, let's talk about it!" Jack said calmly.

"And why did you only choose to re-sign with them for one year?" Pelinka said.

"I think I can get a better offer next season." Jack is not a fool. If he improves at Jack's speed, then after the end of the season, he will definitely get a contract worth tens of millions.Jack was in no hurry.

Pelinka was not surprised. For him, "If it is a one-year contract, then I think you should sign at the end of this season! In this way, your contract for the next season will be bigger. "

Jack thought about the same thing, nodded and agreed.

"There are two giant companies in the sports world, Nike and Adidas, and they want to sign you and let you be their endorsement of their sneakers." Pelinka began again.

In fact, this was a matter of course, and Jack didn't show much surprise.As long as you can play well, they will rush to get you.Jack figured it out and felt that there was nothing wrong.

"Nike's offer is $5 million over five years, and Adidas' offer is $7500 million over four years. Think about it!" Pelinka continued to ask Jack for his views on endorsements.

"Choose Nike!" Jack agreed without thinking.In fact, there is no special reason to choose Nike instead of Adidas. It is just that Nike is more pleasing to the eye.

"Okay! Tomorrow I will bring you the contract and sign it." Pelinka said.

After saying this, Jack and Pelinka chatted for a while before hanging up.

Before and after the All-Star Game is a sensitive period for transactions, and any news about transactions will spread like wildfire.The fact that Jack did not renew his contract with the Hornets was also exposed by the media.

"Mr. Michael Jack, may I ask if you have the idea of ​​leaving the Hornets."

"No, I didn't think about it. The Hornets is where my career started. I won't abandon the Hornets, as long as the Hornets don't abandon me."

"Mr. Michael Jack, why did you refuse the Hornets' 3-year 2000 million contract?"

"I am very grateful to the Hornets management for their trust in me. It is because of their trust in me that I am where I am today. I accept their one-year offer just because I feel that I am worth more than just finishing a season. It's just money, I can get a better contract."

……

The reporters at the scene were in an uproar.

"The Hornets rookie rejected the Hornets' three-year 3 million offer. What is the purpose? "

"The Hornet rookie has a big appetite, resist the temptation of 2000 million"

"If you want to refuse or welcome, you want to blackmail a big contract"
