Chapter 78 The first endorsement (today's first update)
Schwartz's work efficiency is very high, and Li Ning is also a vigorous and decisive person, so the contract of Wang Dalin's endorsement of "Li Ning" sneakers was quickly concluded after negotiation between the two parties.

On the morning of May 5, under the witness of a third-party lawyer invited by Schwartz, Wang Dalin and Li Ning signed their names on the contract respectively.

“李宁”这边将在2001年6月30日前以银行转账的方式支付王大林第一年的代言费400万美元，至于第二年的代言费是2002年6月15日至30日这个期间支付，合同期限是2001年7月1日至2003年6月30日。

During this period, "Li Ning" needs to customize a sneaker for Wang Dalin every year. This series of sneakers is tentatively named "Vulcan". Of course, the meaning of this name is not the Vulcan in "Heizi's Basketball", because Wang Dalin's current team is called "Heat".

As for other special custom-made sneakers, such as the All-Star Rookie Challenge that Wang Dalin will almost certainly attend next season, or participate in high-profile activities such as the All-Star Three-Point Shootout Contest, "Li Ning" will naturally launch the "Vulcan All-Star Commemorative" sneakers in due course.

Wang Dalin also has obligations that must be fulfilled, such as how many times he must attend the promotional activities of "Li Ning" during the offseason each year, and the signing activities when the "Vulcan" series of sneakers are released, etc.

The most important thing is... from July 2001, 7, as long as Wang Dalin plays in official games, he must wear "Li Ning" brand basketball shoes, and he is not allowed to wear other brands.

This also means that when Wang Dalin represented the Chinese men's basketball team in the Asian Championships in July this year, he must have worn "Li Ning" basketball shoes on his feet.If the development speed of "Li Ning" is fast enough, maybe he will already be wearing "Vulcan Generation" on his feet by then.

Of course, the activities arranged by "Li Ning" must be more than these. Every year during the offseason, Wang Dalin must return to China to participate in some large-scale fan interaction activities, which are all written into the contract.

At present, "Li Ning" has launched several basketball shoes. This time they came to sign the contract and they also brought a few pairs according to his shoe size, and gave them all to him after signing the contract.

When Wang Dalin was preparing for the second round of the playoffs against the Bucks, he put on "Li Ning" shoes... Anyway, he has already signed a contract, so what happened to fulfilling his obligations in advance?
Haven't you seen "Uncle Li" give a signing fee of 100 million US dollars immediately after signing the contract?
In this era, it is already a tacit "hidden rule" for everyone to sign a contract with a star.Li Ning gave him a signing fee of 100 million US dollars. Wang Dalin didn't know whether it was more or less, but he was already very satisfied... mainly because he was poor!

Schwartz is also very satisfied. Although Wang Dalin did not choose to sign a 5-year or 3-year long-term contract, which resulted in a lot less commission, but the commission ratio of his economic contract with Wang Dalin was relatively low. Originally, he did not expect to earn much money from Wang Dalin now.

Guarding such a "cash cow" like Wang Dalin, are you afraid that you won't be able to make a lot of money in the future?

This is only Wang Dalin's first endorsement contract. When he negotiates a few more commercial endorsements for Wang Dalin, won't the commission be more?

By the way...Wang Dalin's "Ford F150" is a bit low, why don't you go out and talk to some car brands?

Also... Wang Dalin doesn't know how to dress himself up at all, and he always wears the Heat's training uniform. Isn't "Versace" and "Armani" clothes not fragrant?
……

In one morning, he changed from "working people" to "millionaire". Of course, Wang Dalin had to "mean" his brothers in the Heat.

On the day of the signing, he gave every teammate a small but thoughtful gift, such as a bright silver car wheel for Mourning, and a vinyl record of his favorite singer Whitney Houston for Hardaway...

What was given to House was a whole set of baby clothes. Anyway, this guy will get married during the offseason, so Wang Dalin was considered an early gift.

Even Mason, who was still lying on the hospital bed, received a gift from Wang Dalin, which was a whole box of A-level small movie videotapes. Mason couldn't laugh or cry when he received the gift.

What are you doing?

Although everyone is an adult, you don't need to care about these little things... But can't you keep a low profile when you want to give these things?Who among the beautiful nurses in the hospital is willing to watch the stars and the moon with the old man?

……

That night, Wang Dalin also invited everyone to go to the nightclub to go HAPPY, of course, he just invited everyone to drink and play disco... The money that the girl brought out must be responsible for the money by herself!

The battle is imminent, and it stands to reason that Wang Dalin should not be so "high-profile", but everyone has been training very hard during this period, and Riley didn't say anything.

Of course, Wang Dalin also invited Riley, but the "magic fortune teller" declined, probably because he, an old man who is "nearly sixty years old", really doesn't like the noisy environment of nightclubs.

When everyone arrived at the nightclub, it was still the familiar box.

After the drinks were served, House picked up the glass and said loudly: "Brothers, we are all gathered together today to celebrate Darling's signing of the sneaker endorsement. Let's toast him together, shall we?"

Everyone raised their glasses and said in agreement: "Okay, congratulations to Darling for signing a new endorsement!"

Being called "Darling" one by one by everyone, Wang Dalin felt embarrassed all over his body, but he couldn't put on airs when everyone toasted to him, so he just picked up his own drink and said with a smirk: "I can't drink alcohol yet, I can only substitute drinks, thank you brothers!"

Soul pale!

My name is Dalin, not "Daling"!

Are all Americans so GAY in GAY?
Calling a big man "Darling"?
Is it still called so smoothly?
Don't you all claim to be "iron-blooded men"?

Don't you feel ashamed?
……

The happy time is always so short.

Just after everyone had a good night at the nightclub, Riley once again offered "devil training" the next day. The Heat players complained incessantly during the training, and House was so tired that he almost vomited.

On the evening of May 5, the Heat will arrive in Milwaukee by plane, and they have adapted to the venue a day earlier than originally planned.

The Bradley Center, the home stadium of the Bucks, covers an area of ​​more than 51000 square meters and can accommodate 18600 spectators.

The space between each row of seats in the arena is relatively large, and the comfort of the seats must be better than that of the Heat's home stadium "American Airlines Center Arena".

Moreover, the location of the box is also far from the stadium, and the lighting effect in the stadium is better.All the facilities in the arena are designed with practicality and comfort as the main design elements. Although the number and luxury are not the best, the usable effect is quite good.

Unlike the Heat who have never won a championship, the Bucks have won a championship before, although that was the 1970-1971 season.

At that time, the Bucks had the league's best center "Skyhook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and "Big O" Oscar Robertson, the first in history to average a triple-double in a season.

However, time flies and times have changed, and the Bucks have long lost the courage of the past.From the 1991-1992 season, they failed to break into the playoffs for seven consecutive seasons.

It wasn't until Ray Allen, Glenn Robinson and Sam Cassell gradually formed the "Big Three" in the last two years that the Bucks re-emerged as a strong team in the East.

On the evening of May 5, the G7 game between the Bucks and the Heat started, and Wang Dalin was placed in the starting lineup again.

With his performance getting better and more consistent, Riley has basically defined him as the team's starter.

Accompanied by the boos of the audience, Wang Dalin stepped onto the court. He was ready to face the second round of the playoffs for the first time in his career.

It's just that the script this time is not what he originally imagined, because he knows that in this game, he must first become the "Iron God" before he can really kill the Quartet.

He has already made a very perfect plan for this game. He dare not say [-]%, at least he is [-]% sure that Riley will not replace himself in advance...
